Chapter 316: I Can’t Always Let Black Zetsu Suspect Me

Uehara’s ideal was very domineering.

This group of Akatsuki members was a little excited, especially Deidara, who liked to stir up trouble. Even a coward like Suigetsu was full of excitement.

They were originally the strongest group of people in this world! How could they be willing to hide? Otherwise, why did everyone work so hard to become stronger?

Of course.

Except for Kakuzu, who was single-minded about money.

Yes, Kakuzu immediately thought of a way to earn money from it.

After a moment of silence, Kakuzu took the lead to speak, “If we can do this at that time, we can go to various countries every year to charge a high fee. This fee will be used as the organization’s activity funds.”

“…”

Most of the people looked at Kakuzu speechlessly.

Kakuzu noticed their gazes and reprimanded them indignantly, “A bunch of ignorant brats, they don’t know the value of money at all!”

Uehara was progressing very smoothly.

All the members of the Akatsuki organization had recognized him.

From this moment on, Uehara officially took over and became the new leader of the Akatsuki organization.

[Side Mission: Become the leader of an organization(1/1).]

[Mission completed.]

[Reward: Den Den Mushi Summoning Contract Scroll.]

This reward was quite suitable.

Uehara almost forgot that the current Akatsuki organization no longer had a way to communicate remotely because of Nagato’s death.

Initially, their Akatsuki organization used Nagato’s Rinnegan as a transfer point and used the ring as a medium to communicate with each other.

After Nagato’s death, the long-range communication of the Akatsuki organization was estimated to have problems. At this time, the system rewarded the long-range communication method.

Damn it…

Was he really going to be Akatsuki’s leader for real?

Uehara felt that something was wrong. Did it seem that only by becoming Akatsuki’s leader would he fit the mastermind’s identity?

Uehara shook his head helplessly and took out the phone contract scroll from his ninja backpack and placed it in front of them.

Uehara rubbed his forehead and said softly, “This is the summoning contract scroll I found when I was searching in Orochimaru’s base. It seems to be a kind of ninja beast that can be used for long-range communication.

However, we had Nagato-sama at that time, so I kept it. Now that Nagato-sama has died, the long-range ring communication is useless. We can only use this kind of ninja beast for long-range communication in the future…”

Orochimaru’s name was really useful, just like Danzo, who could be used at any time to pick up a black pot and slam it on his head.

After every member of Akatsuki’s organization signed a summoning contract, they developed a Den Den Mushi that looked quite similar to their appearance. Every Den Mushi was sleeping.

Perhaps it was because the Den Den Mushi was too weak, and it seemed that it did not have any combat ability other than communication. At least, it was much more acceptable than the ancient dragons.

No one in Akatsuki’s organization would doubt this.

Even Sasori had to admit that Orochimaru was an absolute genius in some aspects.

Hidan looked at his Den Den Mushi that looked similar to him, and said happily, “Ha, Kakuzu, look, this little thing is quite unique!”

“Idiot!”

Kakuzu couldn’t help but rub his forehead.

Every time Hidan spoke, Kakuzu was worried about his teammate’s IQ. If it were possible, he really wanted to change teammates!

“Alright.”

Uehara glanced at the people present, stretched, and whispered, “If there are no problems, everyone should go back to the base and rest early!”

“Okay.”

Sasori nodded first and said softly, “Uehara, you should rest early too! If you receive any information about Orochimaru, inform me immediately.”

“Yes.”

Uehara nodded seriously as well.

For the members of Akatsuki’s organization, Orochimaru, this traitor, was undoubtedly a very annoying fellow. Every member present did not mind treating Orochimaru as their current target.

This use of Orochimaru strangely overlaps with Danzo.

In addition to the summoning contract scroll reward from the system, Uehara also received a generous reward for becoming Akatsuki’s leader!

[Side Mission: Become the leader of Akatsuki’s organization(1/1).]

[Mission completed.]

[Reward: Passive skill – Spirit Evolution. ]

[Spirit Evolution: Increases Life Energy by 100,000 points, increases Chakra Energy by 100,000 points, increases Natural Energy by 100,000 points, increases Life Energy Recovery Rate by 50%, increases Chakra Energy Recovery Rate by 50%, increases Natural Energy Extraction Rate by 50%.]

Now that he has obtained 100,000 points of three-dimensional attributes, Uehara would be able to add one more Truth-Seeking Ball in the future battle…

The members of Akatsuki left one by one.

Kisame quietly stopped in his footsteps. He looked at Uehara doubtfully and said in a low voice, “I have already locked Karin up, but did Kabuto-san really betray Uehara-sama?”

“What do you think?”

Uehara narrowed his eyes slightly and revealed a kind smile, “If you betray me, then Kabuto is equivalent to betraying me…”

“I will never betray my lord.”

Kisame grinned, revealing his sharp teeth. He had signed a soul contract with Uehara. No matter what, he couldn’t betray Uehara.

The smile on Kisame’s face was a bit ferocious, “Really, as expected, everything in this world can not escape Uehara-sama’s control…”

“There are still quite a few people who can escape.”

Uehara shook his head. His fingers gently tapped on the table, and he sighed, “After a while, maybe tonight, Black Zetsu will come to find me secretly, or maybe even more likely to find you secretly.”

After saying this, Uehara narrowed his eyes again and said in a low voice, “No matter what, we have to find a way to let Black Zetsu know that there is no one to rely on in this world apart from me or the two of us!”

“Understood.”

Kisame’s expression was a little subtle. In fact, Black Zetsu was already miserable enough. Was Uehara-sama still going to play with it?

Uehara smiled and looked at Kisame. He slowly closed his palm and supported his chin. He said softly, “If my perception technique is not wrong, it should be waiting for you in your room now!”

Sure enough, Black Zetsu looked for Kisame first.

This was definitely something that Black Zetsu would do.

After all, in Black Zetsu’s opinion, after Nagato and Konoha reached a reconciliation, Uehara, who had always been close to Nagato, might change his mind.

Compared to Uehara, Kisame, who looked honest, was relatively safe and easy to control.

“In the past, it trusted me the most!”

Uehara’s smile became a little dangerous, “It seems that Black Zetsu thinks that my thoughts have changed with Nagato-sama’s death… This guy, how come he doesn’t know that the most important thing between people is trust!”

“Hehe…”

A hint of helplessness appeared on Kisame’s face. Uehara was indeed speaking human words now, but you should do as you say first!

As he spoke of trust, he continued to lie to Black Zetsu…

Kisame felt that Black Zetsu was really a little miserable. He clearly had the posture of controlling Uehara, but he had been secretly controlled by Uehara all along.

It wasn’t until after Uehara controlled Obito that Black Zetsu was almost led away by Uehara. Now, Uehara had even played a trick on Kabuto’s betrayal…

Kisame sighed faintly and said, “Then, Sir, do you want to prepare a reason for Black Zetsu that you are willing to continue the Eye of the Moon Plan? After all, after such a huge upheaval, Sir’s previous reason seemed to need to be changed…”

“What you said makes sense.”

Uehara nodded slowly and said in a low voice, “Then reveal my purpose to Black Zetsu! Besides taking revenge on Obito and Orochimaru, I also want Nagato-sama to be resurrected. I want to create a new world with Nagato-sama!”

“This…”

Kisame could not help but scratch his head and look up at Uehara. “Aren’t these words… a little nonsense?”

The previous reason was still reasonable…

What the hell was it to create a peaceful world with Nagato behind it? Such a weird reason was too ridiculous!

“It doesn’t matter.”

Uehara shook his head. He looked at Kisame and said in a low voice, “Believe me, no matter how ridiculous your dream is, Black Zetsu will tell you that the Eye of the Moon Plan will definitely realize it!”

After Kisame nodded, he grinned and said, “Then I will say something inappropriate in front of it. My lord will definitely not mind it in the future, right?”

“I don’t mind.”

Uehara casually waved his hand and whispered, “We have been together for so long, don’t you know my temper? Do I look like a narrow-minded person?”

“…”

The smile on Kisame’s face froze for a second.

Hehe, was there anyone in this world who was more narrow-minded than you?

Kisame had heard from Kabuto that you had always been targeting Orochimaru because when that fellow Orochimaru and you first met, he had said rudely that you were an experimental material!

Unfortunately, facing his immediate superior, Kisame could only helplessly recover his smile, “Indeed, there is no one in the whole world who is more broad-minded than Uehara-sama.”

“Okay, okay, go!”

Uehara waved his hand in a hurry and whispered, “I still have to accompany Konan-sensei! If the plan fails, I will make your Samehada into pickled fish!”

Kisame, “…”

What kind of devil boss was this!

Just as Kisame was about to leave, Uehara suddenly continued, “There is another piece of information that Obito leaked to Konoha. Obito claims that Black Zetsu is his spy in Akatsuki…”

When Uehara said this, he continued with a slight smile, “You can try to use this matter to let Black Zetsu know that I want to continue to participate in the Eye of the Moon Plan but also worry that it is Obito’s spy…

I can’t always make Black Zetsu suspect me. I also have to let it know that I might suspect it. I have to encourage Black Zetsu to find a way to regain my trust. Only then will it know to cherish me, the only person it can rely on.

After all, what people easily get will never be cherished. Only after hard work will they know how to cherish it.”
