Chapter 53 - 53: Uchiha Itachi Who Is Good At Telling Stories

"I will go back to the base first."

After talking with Uehara, Pain said coldly: "Uehara, you also return to Akatsuki's base immediately, don't let your sensei worry."

After speaking, Pain cancels the summon and turns to smoke.

Because Tendo Pain is too far away from the main body Nagato, the Chakra in Tendo Pain's body has been almost exhausted after releasing two techniques.

If Nagato's Chakra transmission is not available, Tendo Pain will not be of much use so it's meaningless to stay here.

It's better to go back as soon as possible and get information from Uchiha Itachi.

Uehara did not stay either. He summons Pain only to let Obito, who is secretly spying, recognize the facts. His actor status has been strip away.

Obito should have recognized the facts now, right?

The only regret is that Orochimaru sneaked away.

Now that the matter is over, Uehara left the country of water with Hoshigaki Kisame, Hozuki Mangetsu, Momochi Zabuza, Kaguya Kimimaro, and Yuki Haku, and embark on the way home.

After everyone left.

The shadow in the forest.

The figure of the mysterious masked man appeared, and he muttered to himself in a melancholy voice: "It's a miscalculation, that kid can summon Pain..."

His identity will be completely exposed!

But the mysterious masked man had plans for the worst.

If Nagato wants to kick him away and start collecting Bijuu alone, it would be impossible, because only Zetzu could gather information on Bijuu.

The exposure of his identity this time only affected his status and image, it did not prevent him from continuing the Eye of the Moon Plan.

The mysterious masked man is not entirely groundless.

He suspected that Orochimaru had detected his identity and revealed it to Kakashi.

Who made Orochimaru appear in the Water Country for no reason?

Because of emotion and reason, Orochimaru is the most likely candidate.

"Forget it, I can only give up blocking news..."

The light in the eyes of the mysterious masked man flashed, and a space-time vortex appeared behind him pulling him into the vortex.

Kirigakure

Akatsuki organization Base

Pain cancel Uehara's summon and return here, he saw Konan who looked worried.

Konan, Kakuzu, and Uchiha Itachi had recruited Hidan in just two days and returned to Akatsuki's base.

"Nagato, is there something wrong with your body?"

"No, it's Uehara."

Pain shakes his head and said with a gloomy expression: "Perhaps we can find out the truth twelve years ago. Let's go hold Uchiha Itachi first. We must not let him escape!"

"What happened?"

"The man who calls himself Uchiha Madara is a ninja named Obito. He is very likely a Konoha spy who wants to use us!"

Pain's face was ugly, and he continued with a deep voice: "Uehara has discovered his true identity and is being chased by him!"

"I will save Uehara!"

The paper wings behind Konan open, when she is about to leave here Tendo Pain stops her and explains in a low voice: "Don't worry, Uehara happened to ran into Orochimaru, I helped him solve it; there are three Seven Ninja Swordsmen around him, there should be no problem..."

"Then let's go see Uchiha Itachi first!"

Konan's origami pieces fluttered, and his voice said coldly: "From his mouth, ask for information!"

Since Uehara did not return yet, Uchiha Itachi has no new teammates, he can't go out and perform a mission, so he just sits on the lake outside the base and thinks about life.

A group of paper butterflies suddenly fell in front of him and gathered into a blue-haired woman standing on the lake.

Konan looked at him, she frowns and said: "Is there something bothering you, the famous genocider Uchiha Itachi?"

"Konan-senpai, what's the matter?"

Itachi was a little depressed, he just wanted to sit quietly for a while, and didn't want to talk to the woman in front of him.

Konan didn't care about his mood, but asked in a cold voice, "Uchiha Itachi, you are Konoha traitor, have you heard of the name Obito when you were in Konoha?"

"Obito?"

Itachi remembered a funeral he had attended a long time ago, he raises his head questioningly, and says his full name to Konana: "Uchiha Obito?"

Konan's brows frown, she carefully observes Itachi's expression and is a little surprised when he did not show any abnormalities.

Uchiha Itachi, don't know the identity of the masked man?

Konan continues to ask in a deep voice: "You are both in the same clan, you should know the person named Uchiha Obito?"

"Ok?"

Itachi lowered his head, he just looks at the lake and replied softly, "Uchiha Obito was killed in the third Ninja War. Because we could not find his body, he was the only one who was not buried in Konoha memorial."

"Oh?"

Konan nodded with interest: "Go on!"

Judging from Itachi alone, the probability that the mysterious masked man is Uchiha Obito is at least 80 to 90%.

But judging from Itachi's expression, he doesn't seem to know the true identity of the mysterious masked man?

If you think so, then Uchiha Itachi may not be Konoha's spy. After all, he killed the entire Uchiha clan.

"..."

Itachi looks at Konan in a puzzled manner. Uchiha Obito has already died, so what else do you want me to say?

Do I have to tell her the life of Obito?

A person who died a long time ago, why would Konan be interested?

Itachi carefully observes Konan and continues quietly: "They said that Obito's grades were not very good. Perhaps it is for this reason that when he graduated and was assigned to a team, he was team up with the most talented ninja Hatake Kakashi and became the disciples of the Fourth Hokage..."

A story about a loser comes out from Uchiha Itachi.

Itachi heard it from other people in his family, coupled with his understanding and polishing, a story about a loser take shape and eventually become a hero of Konoha.

Konan couldn't help become shocked when she listened. She didn't expect that Itachi had a talent for telling stories.

The story of the ninja told by Itachi is much more pleasant than the one she was told.

The book "The Tale of Utterly Gutsy Ninja" written by Jiraiya is so obscure that people can't stand it. It's not as good as Uchiha Itachi story.

"...Finally, Uchiha Obito becomes Konoha's hero, resting in a foreign country, and the genius Ninja Hatake Kakashi, who carried the will of his comrades in arms, becomes the Sharingan Kakashi in Honor for his old friend who donated his Sharingan."

This story is not leaked information. Many of the contents are well known, and it is a story that spreads the will of fire.

After Itachi told the story, he was even moved by Obito in the story. He slowly turned his head and looked at the female ninja, still a little puzzled...

Is his story bad?

Has the Will of Fire not spread to Konan's heart?

"Did you finish?"

Konan's brows frown. If she didn't know that the mysterious masked man was Uchiha Obito, she might really admire him.

"Yes…"

Itachi's expression is a bit puzzled, and he feels that this woman is a little hopeless: "Konan-senpai, why are you interested in Uchiha Obito?"

Konan did not answer his words, but opens the paper wings behind him, and said coldly: "Come with me, Pain wants to see you!"
