Naruto: Swarm System

Chapter 366: Chapter 366: The Beginning of Konoha's Destruction



"Uchiha Obito has appeared in Konoha. I need to leave for a bit. If something happens, help Tsunade," Shishou whispered into Pakura's ear.

Pakura nodded repeatedly. "I understand. Go ahead."

Hearing this, Shishou kissed Pakura's cheek, making her blush deeply, before getting up to leave.

Obito was furious due to the disturbance at Rin Nohara's grave. To prevent any incidents, Shishou had to keep an eye on him.

Finding a secluded spot, Shishou removed his disguise, transforming into his Flying Thunder God user form, and disappeared.

At Konoha's cemetery.

As soon as Shishou appeared, Obito noticed him and angrily said, "You disturbed Rin's grave?"

Shishou chuckled and slowly said, "You were tracking me, so I was tracking you."

From the intel provided by Uchiha Itachi, Shishou knew that Obito had guessed his Konoha identity, though he wasn't sure if Obito had confirmed it.

Obito's expression changed drastically under his mask. He growled, "I am Uchiha Madara!"

"Hahaha," Shishou laughed loudly. "Would Madara care about a little girl like that?"

After a good laugh, Shishou looked seriously at Obito and said, "You're not Madara. You're Kakashi and Rin Nohara's teammate, Uchiha Obito!"

Hearing his real name, Obito was stunned as if struck by lightning.

After a moment, he gritted his teeth and asked, "How do you know my identity?"

How did he know? Because he'd read the script... I mean, because of his prophetic abilities.

With a mental smirk, Shishou spun a tale. "There aren't many who possess the Sharingan besides Uchiha Itachi. You took Kakashi's Sharingan, which was given to him by his teammate. It wasn't hard to trace it back to you."

After finishing, Shishou quickly thought about how to cover up the disturbance at Rin's grave.

The corpse of Rin was a one-time-use weapon, and Obito's Kamui was too overpowered. If he lost this first opportunity, capturing Obito would be extremely difficult.

Therefore, without being fully prepared, Shishou didn't plan to reveal Rin's situation.

In the middle of Konoha, fighting the fully equipped Obito was unsuitable. If they failed, an enraged Obito could cause immense destruction.

Hearing Shishou's explanation, Obito fell silent.

He hadn't expected Shishou to trace his identity this way.

After a moment, Obito spoke, "You disturbed Rin's grave just to confirm my identity?"

Shishou nodded. "Yes."

Obito had provided a perfect excuse!

Thinking this, Shishou decided to reinforce Obito's assumption. "I left a few White Zetsu here. I get alerted when you show up."

"To be thorough, I checked Rin Nohara's grave. Your reaction confirmed my suspicion."

Hearing that Shishou had indeed disturbed Rin's grave, Obito clenched his fists in rage.

Suddenly, both Shishou and Obito turned towards the Chunin Exam arena.

They both sensed an unusual chakra fluctuation there.

Obito grinned. "Looks like someone is causing trouble. Aren't you going to help?"

Though unaware of who was causing trouble, Obito was glad to see someone give Shishou a hard time.

Shishou chuckled. "It's just a minor issue."

To Shishou, Obito, with his Kamui, was the biggest threat. If he left, Obito might take the opportunity to cause havoc, leading to greater casualties.

As for the situation in Konoha, with Tsunade and others around, it should be manageable.

...

Meanwhile, in the Chunin Exam arena.

Shortly after Shishou left, disguised as Anbu, Kabuto Yakushi and Yamato rapidly performed hand seals, casting an A-rank group genjutsu:

"Genjutsu: Temple of Nirvana Technique!"

As feathers began to fall from the sky, Pakura frowned and muttered, "Could Shishou's prediction really come true? I must stop the Sand Village."

Shishou had joked about a prophecy he had seen, foretelling possible events in Konoha today.

As the feathers fell, spectators quickly felt drowsy and fell asleep, including some Genin who couldn't break free from the genjutsu.

Next to the Third Hokage Hiruzen Sarutobi, the Fourth Kazekage appeared behind him, holding a kunai to his throat.

Elsewhere, Raiko confronted Tsunade, who was guarding the Fire Daimyo and his wife.

Seeing the unfamiliar woman before her, Tsunade frowned.

Meanwhile, many spectators stood up, shedding their disguises to reveal ninja uniforms and headbands from the River Country. They began to clash with Konoha's ninja.

To keep the Fourth Kazekage's replacement a secret, Orochimaru hadn't included any Sand Village members. These were fodder ninja from the River Country.

Outside Konoha, the main force of the Sand Village was heading towards the village.

Thanks to Shishou's prophecy, Shizune had preemptively organized Tsunade's loyal Anbu to quickly evacuate civilians.

In the arena, Ringo Ameyuri held the unconscious Neji, excited by the unfolding events.

"Is Konoha under attack?"

Genma Shiranui looked at her, speechless, and thought, "You don't have to be so excited."

In the waiting area, Gaara was surrounded by Lee, Shino, and other Konoha Genin, as well as Shishou's clone.

In the stands, Temari watched the Fourth Kazekage holding the Third Hokage hostage and frowned. "Teacher, should we act?"

Baki sighed. "Lord Rasa has already made his move. We have no choice but to participate."
