Chapter 156 Preparation
Chapter 156 Preparation
Qianyao still has two clones present.
One is the fusion of Itachi's side and the one left in the clan, and the other is the one in Naruto's shadow.
The former was negotiating with Fugaku at that moment: "Fugaku, you were a bit careless."
When Chiyo's slightly teasing words came over, Fugaku felt a little embarrassed.
He wondered why things were going so smoothly. Rasa insisted on sending out the Jinchūriki to investigate, and it turned out he was waiting for him here.
"It's my fault, I didn't think it through."
Fugaku was also a little scared, never expecting that the Mangekyou Sharingan's control over the Tailed Beasts would fail one day.
To be precise, it's not malfunctioning.
Suppressing a tailed beast with eye power will cause its consciousness to fall into a deep sleep.
To put it another way, it's like putting the tailed beasts to sleep.
But this time, it was as if Rasa was constantly burning Gaara with a branding iron, so the tailed beasts naturally couldn't fall asleep.
However, this is also due to insufficient eye power. If the eye power is strong enough, it can directly knock the tailed beast into a deep coma.
Even if you dismember his limbs, the tailed beast still won't wake up.
Qianyao shook his head: "Forget it, it's nothing serious. Let's see what losses the clan has suffered first."
At this moment, Yusuke came over and reported to Fugaku: "Clan leader..."
Fugaku pointed at Chiyo, meaning that Chiyo should handle it.
A fleeting glint of light flashed in Yusuke's eyes:
"The Fourth Elder was suppressed by the clan leader's Mangekyou Sharingan when the One-Tailed Beast went berserk. In addition, there was no one around the room where the Jinchuriki was imprisoned."
"In the early stages, we only experienced damage to some houses."
"The missiles fired by Yiwei injured some people, mostly from the collapse of buildings, but no one died."
Qian Yao nodded slightly: "First, we need to treat and comfort our people."
"Anyone who is injured should go to Second Elder Yanhe to collect a portion of the compensation."
"The amount has been deducted from Fugaku's account."
Qianyao's words left everyone present speechless.
What?! Fine the clan chief?!
The Uchiha clan also has thousands of members and a clan treasury, but Chiyo did not spend any money from it.
Instead, they're going through Fugaku's account, which clearly means they're fining him.
Fugaku was somewhat amused and exasperated, but he wasn't particularly interested in money.
Moreover, he lacked nothing, and understanding Qianyao's meaning, he readily agreed.
“No problem, Yusuke, just go and inform them as Chiyo said.”
At this moment, everyone looked at Chiyo and then at Fugaku, and some people had already figured out what was going on.
Itachi used Susanoo to shield some of his clansmen from attacks, so their resentment towards him has lessened considerably.
Moreover, most members of the Uchiha clan are quick-tempered, but there are very few petty people among them.
Although Itachi wasn't popular before, some people still greeted him today.
Itachi was a little uncomfortable, but he still returned everyone's greetings.
Qianyao waved and called Itachi over.
"Since you're already back, why don't you rest at home for a couple of days before you leave?"
Itachi realized that not many people in the clan actually hated him anymore, and he responded with a sound of agreement.
"Yes, senior."
He also misses Sasuke and Izumi very much.
After Qianyao had arranged everything else, he came to Orochimaru's ear and whispered something to him.
Orochimaru glanced at Chiyo's other clone with shining eyes.
"It will take time to modify the Impure World Reincarnation technique, and we also need to gather all the necessary materials."
No wonder Chiyo's clone had mastered the Four Symbols Sealing Technique to the point where he could seal tailed beasts with his bare hands; it turned out to be Kushina.
"You're in charge of the Impure World Reincarnation; the materials shouldn't be hard to find."
Within the consciousness space of the Thousand Radiance clone, Kushina's figure noticeably faded.
This time, applying the Four Symbols Seal to Gaara consumed a large amount of Kushina's chakra.
The chakra that could have been dismantled and lasted for two months now only lasts for a few hours.
Kushina looked a little regretful: "I thought I could spend more time with Naruto."
"Take me back, I can stay with Naruto for a while longer."
Qianyao laughed and said, "You don't need to worry about that. I guarantee you'll have plenty of time to spend with Naruto in the future."
Kushina's heart skipped a beat: "Chiyo, what do you mean?"
Qianyao, however, was not in a hurry:
"It's too late today, and you don't have much chakra left. I'll wake you up once I'm ready."
Kushina already trusted Chiyo completely, but she still couldn't help but ask:
"Qianyao, aren't you trying to comfort me?"
Seeing Kushina's anxiety, Chiyo reassured her, "Don't worry, I'm confident."
Kushina took a slight breath: "Alright, I'll wait for your news."
"Keep an eye on Naruto for me."
Kushina's chakra then completely subsided.
After comforting Kushina, Chiyo thought for a moment and decided not to merge his clones together for the time being.
The clone still slipped into the shadows and moved towards Naruto's residence.
At this moment, Mayumi, who was guarding outside the clan's territory, came in and reported:
"Chief, the secret service has come to inquire what happened in our territory?"
Fugaku gave him a look, as if to ask Chiyo.
Mayumi's eyes darted around, but she still came to stand in front of Chiyo.
Chiyo pondered for a moment: "Just tell the Anbu that the Jinchuriki of Sunagakure attacked and were captured alive by my Uchiha clan."
Although Shukaku has grown so much and its chakra fluctuations are so strong, it's unlikely that it could hide it.
But the fact that the Jinchuriki was captured alive is big news.
Qianyao's reputation is already very high, and even the people under the Second and Third Elders do not question it.
Makoto immediately accepted the order and went to carry it out.
At this moment, Fugaku looked at Chiyo with a questioning gaze.
Qianyao simply waved his hand: "No rush, let things develop a bit."
Fugaku nodded and brought up another matter: "Before this, Hyuga Souta sent a message."
"The orphanage area you asked them to monitor, Director Nono hasn't returned, but Yakushi Kou has."
"However, he left in the evening, and the Hyuga people only monitored that he went in the northwest direction."
Qianyao hissed softly, wondering if Kabuto had gone off to have a love-hate relationship with Nonou.
If you calculate the time, it seems to be about the same.
Chiyo quickly explained to Fugaku:
"You cooperate with Orochimaru's side. Take care of the clan affairs first. Don't attend any meetings or anything like that that the Third Hokage invites us to. Wait for my main body to return."
"Let Itachi stay in the clan for a few days. I have some important business to attend to."
Fugaku responded, while Chiyo followed the shadows of the night and fled directly to the northwest.
……
Sand Hidden.
Near the rock face.
This is Chiyo and Ebizo's headquarters.
As Chiyo grew older, she was no longer involved in affairs, but then such a big thing happened in Konoha.
She wanted to see how things went.
Especially since Yekura recently joined them, giving them another card to play.
Chiyo and Ebizo were much more proactive about matters concerning Konoha.
"I see. Don't worry, Kiyoshi, your people are perfectly safe here."
“Luo Sha’s influence doesn’t extend here. You can stay here for now; we’ll need your help in a couple of days.”
"Then thank you very much, Elder Chiyo." With that, Kiyoshi led his men down with Chiyo's group.
Chiyo's eyes gleamed as she went to the next room.
"Ebizo, send a message to Yokura and the others. Rasa is ready to hold them accountable for Gaara's disappearance and has already sent people to hunt them down."
"We'll meet up with our people first, then take a detour back."
