Black Zetsu heard the intelligence brought back by the White Zetsu clone, and immediately felt panicked. He had just gone to meet the leader of the rogue ninjas, hadn't he?
It hadn't been long, so how were the Five Great Ninja Villages already preparing to announce their condemnation of their Goddess Alliance?
They had even escalated it to the safety of the entire ninja world. Although their ultimate goal would indeed endanger the ninja world...
They hadn't done it yet, right?
Was this necessary?
And they hadn't done anything recently either.
They were just farming and selling pollen, right?
Did the ninja world no longer allow free trade and land reclamation?
This...
Was there no justice anymore?
"Maybe we should..." White Zetsu was also startled and said cautiously, "Just slip... slip away."
It was the Five Great Ninja Villages.
With just a group of civilians and some useless ninjas in the organization, how could they possibly stop them?
So...
They should just slip away. It would be safe once they returned to the cave.
No.
The cave was already known. They had to find a new hidden place. And the Gedo Statue at the bottom of the cave had to be moved too.
"Hide for three or four hundred years. Wait until everyone else is dead, then we can come out," White Zetsu suggested. "Believe me..."
"We can definitely outlive them."
Hearing White Zetsu's words, Black Zetsu's face immediately darkened. He had to remember that this organization belonged to Mother.
They had worked so hard, developing cautiously all this time. They hadn't even had time to do anything bad yet, so how had they already been targeted?
This was just too bullying.
Black Zetsu narrowed his eyes and looked at White Zetsu. "Have you found out the reason why the Five Great Ninja Villages are doing this?"
He wanted to see who was framing him, the mastermind of the ninja world. Weren't they afraid he would curse their entire clan hundreds of years later?
"It's that legendary ninja sword..." White Zetsu looked at Black Zetsu with a strange expression. "The Kumogakure village is demanding that we return the ninja sword to them."
"Legendary ninja sword?"
What was this thing?
Black Zetsu looked at White Zetsu in confusion. He remembered that that unfilial son only had one ninja sword.
Could it be...
Suddenly, Black Zetsu seemed to remember something, his face darkening as he asked, "Was it caused by those stone tablets?"
"Yes," White Zetsu nodded helplessly. "And Sunagakure village..."
"Last night, a bald masked man suddenly appeared. He used Magnet Release to steal Sunagakure's ninja sword."
"What does that have to do with us?" Black Zetsu asked, puzzled. "We haven't carried out any missions in Sunagakure recently."
And bald...
Aside from the rogue ninja who had just joined the organization, there didn't seem to be any bald members.
"But they think it's someone from our organization," White Zetsu spread his hands, sighed, and said helplessly. "They believe we instigated the Second Kazekage of Sunagakure to go steal the ninja sword."
"..."
This method...
Why did it seem familiar??
I, I, I @#…&%@...
Black Zetsu finally understood who was framing him and cursed angrily, "Uzumaki Jun."
I curse your ancestors.
After all these years of working hard for you, running errands...
You turned around and sold us out.
What sin did I commit in my past life to...
Meet that red haired brat.
...
Land of Whirlpools.
After getting the money, he took Kakuzu back to the Land of Whirlpools. As for what would happen next...
Uzumaki Jun sighed and said with a tone of pity, "Be strong, Black Zetsu."
Especially after the Second Kazekage suddenly appeared in Sunagakure last night to steal the ninja sword, the ninja world probably had no idea how to estimate the number of powerful members in the Goddess Alliance now.
Even though that bald man was him in disguise, who knew?
Plus secretly collecting the legendary ninja swords...
Without a doubt, a huge conspiracy was forming in people's minds.
So...
If Black Zetsu didn't hide well, the mother and son probably would never meet again.
Uzumaki Jun silently mourned for the filial son of the ninja world for two seconds, then took a deep breath and pulled himself together...
He couldn't afford to be depressed like this.
There was still a huge country waiting for him to protect.
Looking at the busy Chiro, Uzumaki Jun sighed and said, "Has the Mirage Tank not been developed yet?"
"Yeah." Chiro didn't look up, still busy with his own work, and said with emotion, "I don't know what you're thinking. That thing is just too impractical. Its power isn't great, its defense is poor, and it moves slowly. Probably one Grand Fireball from someone would destroy it."
"..."
Is that so?
Indeed...
The technology of the Land of Whirlpools was still too weak.
Uzumaki Jun thought for a moment and said, "What about guided missiles then?"
"..."
Hearing Uzumaki Jun's words, Chiro raised an eyebrow. He had no idea what this Land of Whirlpools' leader was thinking. How could there be automatically guided attacks?
Did he really want to press a button in the Land of Whirlpools and have a missile automatically fly to Konoha and explode?
Why not just go dream?
You can have anything in dreams.
Chiro said displeased, "No." He looked up at Uzumaki Jun. "Can't you think of something that's actually possible?"
What kind of stuff is this?
He was over thirty, almost forty. He hadn't even heard of these things let alone seen them.
"Hey." Uzumaki Jun patted Chiro's shoulder and said in a patronizing manner, "Young people should be bolder."
"Maybe it really exists."
How could it not exist?
Didn't it exist on Earth in his previous life?
When he exchanged the satellite navigation data later, wouldn't it become possible?
Chiro rolled his eyes and said displeased, "Why did you come here anyway?"
Didn't he know he was very busy?
Mobile phones, computers, the internet, satellites, tanks, airships...
So many things relied on him alone.
"If you have nothing else, then get out quickly." Chiro fiddled with the machinery and said, "Don't disturb me."
"Eh." Uzumaki Jun thought for a moment and said, "What about chakra cannons then?"
Since there was nothing else, he could only lower his requirements.
He would have to line the shores of the Land of Whirlpools with chakra cannons. No matter what, he had to keep the enemy outside the country and move the battlefield to other countries.
Otherwise, with the small territory of the Land of Whirlpools, if the Five Great Ninja Villages all came, wouldn't it all become ruins?
Post war reconstruction would require a huge amount of funds.
"They've already been taken by the military department for testing." Chiro didn't look up and said calmly, "The power has also met the requirements. Chakra cannons with the power of an A rank jutsu."
After all, they were developed based on the A rank jutsu Rasengan. Plus, the machinery could compress chakra more stably, so in some aspects, the power was even greater. It was just that aiming and moving were more troublesome.
"Now we are researching chakra cannons with nature transformation."
"The power should be even greater then."
It's just that there was no progress at all now.
"Is that so?" Uzumaki Jun nodded, satisfied, and said, "How many can be produced in a day?"
"Not sure. You'll have to ask the research institute about that." Chiro still didn't look up. "Production is handed over to the research institute."
"And also..."
Chiro looked up at Uzumaki Jun and complained, "The funds are insufficient again. Quickly allocate a sum. Tell that dark faced guy not to be so stingy."
"..."
This was a small matter. Kakuzu had just obtained a huge sum of money.
Uzumaki Jun saw Chiro's impatient expression and decided not to bother the technical expert anymore. He quickly said with an apologetic smile, "I'll have Kakuzu allocate it immediately."
Time to leave, time to leave.
You can't afford to offend technical talent.
"By the way, I think it's best to train more assistants. Then you wouldn't be so tired."
As soon as he finished speaking, he used Flying Thunder God to leave.
And Chiro...
He looked up at the place where Uzumaki Jun had left, sighed, and shook his head.
He wanted to find them too.
But most talented people weren't willing to do this line of work. They all wanted to become ninjas.
Didn't they know that...
Puppeteers were also ninjas?
Indeed...
The status of science still couldn't compare to that of ninjas.
