Chapter 56: The Beautiful Fat Sheep
Since Uehara took five people on his return journey, it was naturally impossible for him to travel through the Land of Fire. To avoid any trouble, they chose a relatively stable route.
After leaving the port.
Uehara turned his head to look at everyone present and a.s.signed tasks to them, “Mangetsu, go into Yugakure to book a hot spring inn. Mr. Zabuza, take Kimimaro and Haku and continue their ninja training or go relax…”
“…”
Mangetsu and Zabuza were confused.
Between two of them, one was a genius ninja who became a genius steward under Uehara’s command, and the other was one of Seven Swordsmen of the Mist who killed people like killing flies who turned into teacher and nanny.
Kimimaro and Haku couldn’t help turning their heads and looked towards Uehara, whispering, “Uehara-kun, won’t you go with us?”
Uehara shook his head and said softly, “Well, Kisame and I will practice our hand seals. In the afternoon, we will meet at the most lively place in Yugakure…!”
Yugakure was the most famous tourist attraction in the Ninja World. It was famous for its unique hot spring bath and as the most comfortable place in Ninja World. It was the most suitable place to relax.
Even the Shin.o.bi World Wars didn’t affect this area.
Uehara and his party took a boat across the sea and, along the way, happened to take a day off here.
Once the other people left, Uehara and Kisame finally had time to begin discussing their plans.
Uehara’s biggest concern was undoubtedly the private meeting Kisame and Obito had before leaving the Land of Water, “How was it? Did you get Obito’s trust?”
“Ha, almost.”
Kisame grinned and said with a light smile, “I told him that as long as his Eye of the Moon plan continues to be implemented after I become Itachi’s teammate, I will continue to help monitor Itachi and pa.s.s the information on Itachi to him..”
Before they left the Land of Water, Obito secretly contacted Kisame, and Kisame’s performance allowed him to win Obito’s trust once again.
In other words, Obito believed in Kisame.
Kisame initially prepared a bunch of Uehara’s information, but Obito didn’t ask about those little details.
After all, Kisame had been serving Obito, who controlled Fourth Mizukage behind the scenes, for the past few years. The relationship between them was extraordinary.
And Kisame’s character was also very trustworthy…
As long as Kisame believed in someone, he was 100% loyal and was willing to throw away his own life.
“It seems like our plan is going well.”
Uehara didn’t know that, due to the deterioration of the situation, Kisame’s position had risen in Uchiha Obito’s heart, and Kisame would soon become an important source of information.
Uehara simply comforted his subordinates, “After you and Itachi become partners, you can enjoy a leisurely break.”
Kisame smiled heartily, slightly nodded, and said, “Ha, it sounds like this Itachi guy is pretty good.”
“I believe you and Itachi will get along well.”
Uehara was quite confident. He turned his head and looked at Kisame and said, “By the way, how many sets of hand seals did you prepare for me?”
“Thirteen sets…”
Hoshigaki Kisame took out a scroll and handed it to Uehara with a chuckle, “The hand seals are half true half false, most of them are Water and Earth-Release related hand seals.”
“Many thanks. ”
Uehara shook the scroll and put it in his Ninja Tool Pouch contentedly.
Naturally, Uehara didn’t need hand seals to release his skills, but he wanted to practice hand seals for fun, confuse his opponent, and reduce their vigilance…
He also wanted to be a serious ninja who knew how to make hand seals.
Uehara practiced hand seals while talking about Itachi, “He is still very easy to get along with. As long as you don’t violate his bottom line, he will unconditionally tolerate anything you do. …”
“Bottom line?”
“His younger brother Uchiha Sasuke.”
Since the two of them signed a contract, Uehara trusted Kisame, and he put together all Itachi’s information, “As long as it something that doesn’t hurt his younger brother, Itachi is a ninja that can be easily used.”
“…So he’s another elder brother who is a father-like person?”
When Kisame heard this, he couldn’t help but lightly said with a smile, “Turns out the clan exterminating Itachi and Mangetsu share the same weakness!”
Uehara sighed faintly, “It’s this world’s fault. The love a big brother has for their younger brother has always been a little too intense here.”
Could the person who created this world also have a brother complex?
In the Yugakure.
From the moment Uehara and Kisame stepped into this ninja village, they followed their agreement to find the most lively area and took a look at Yugakure’s local conditions and customs.
The most lively place in Yugakure turned out to be a gambling hall.
Why was it the gambling hall!
When Uehara got the news, his expression turned faintly subtle, “Isn’t this too much of a coincidence? We always run into amazing characters no matter where we go!”
“Uehara-sama thinks it is a great person?”
Kisame’s face suddenly became a little curious and asked, “If it is not particularly dangerous, shouldn’t we go to see this great person?”
Uehara nodded with difficulty, “What you said… makes sense. The strength of that great person is slightly lower.”
In the Ninja World, when talking about gambling, you would inevitably mention a woman.
A woman whose name echoed through the Ninja World. One of the Konoha Sannin, the strongest female ninja, Tsunade!
Practically no one willingly took the initiative to hurt her.
Tsunade was part of Konoha’s most distinguished Senju Clan. She was the first to advocate for turning medical-nin into a must-have member of a regular ninja team. Countless ninjas respected her for her proficiency with all medical ninjutsu within the ninja world.
While most ninjas thought of Tsunade as the most powerful medical ninja in the ninja world, they also knew of her incredible strength.
Konoha Sannin’s prestige was not gained by saving people and curing diseases!
In the Ninja World, except for the leaders of the Great Ninja Villages, no other ninja could confront Tsunade.
Regardless of appearance, family background, strength, and fame, Tsunade was excellent, but she had a shortcoming that everyone knew.
She was addicted to gambling, and, unfortunately, her luck had always been terrible.
Since Tsunade left Konoha and began to travel in Ninja World, a peculiar name had also started to circulate in Ninja World.
The Legendary Fat Sheep.
“Is the legendary fat sheep coming?”
“It’s already started!”
“She’s already lost two hundred thousand taels!”
“The big cash cow is truly extraordinary…”
“She’s also very big…”
The gambling hall was very lively today. All of the Yugakure’s gamblers had gathered here. Some of the men tried to fish in troubled waters, wanting to take the opportunity to make a little money.
Uehara picked his ears, subconsciously ignoring the strange words. He was looking at the people around the gambling hall, looking for his subordinates.
“Uehara!”
A clear voice stopped him.
Kimimaro squeezed through the crowd and walked to the side of Uehara and softly explained, “Mr. Mangetsu and Mr. Zabuza are already at the hot spring inn… They said it was too dangerous, so they sent me here to wait for you here.”
“Uehara-sama, it is indeed dangerous here…”
Kisame’s small eyes blinked. With his height, he could see the situation inside the gambling hall, so he could also see the blond female ninja sitting in the middle of the gaming table.
As a ninja, how could he not recognize Konoha’s Sannin?
Uehara looked at the white exposed skin of the blonde female ninja and exclaimed, “But this is interesting, isn’t it?”
