Behind the Scenes in Naruto World

Chapter 109: My Name is Uehara Naraku, an Oscar-level Ninja

After returning to Amegakure, Uehara’s life gradually became more consistent.

In addition to practicing with Konan every day, Uehara occasionally sneaked to Nagato to secretly use Astral Infusion. The rest of his time was spent working as the Amegakure’s accountant.

This kind of life was quite good.

From time to time, he would encounter Ajisai, who wanted to challenge him. Uehara could see that Ajisai wanted to be Konan’s disciple.

Uehara did not wish to dispel her enthusiasm.

Since he started helping to manage the accounts of Amegakure, the people that Uehara has encountered the most were Kakuzu and Sasori since Kakuzu had many channels to get money from, and Sasori successfully produced Rasa’s puppet.

Sasori threw a sealed scroll and looked at Uehara. He said, “I’m here to exchange gold dust for my experiment funds.”

Kakuzu walked into Uehara’s office and put a box of money on the table, “Here was the money for the next gold dust that I need to exchange for more money.”

“Fine.”

Uehara took the money from Kakuzu. He took out about half of it, and gave the rest to Sasori, and took the gold dust Sasori gave, “Sasori-senpai, this is the experiment fund you wanted.”

Uehara took the gold dust scroll and handed it to Kakuzu, “Kakuzu-senpai, this is the gold dust you wanted. Remember to exchange it for more money.”

This job made Uehara feel like he was a middleman.

Sasori and Kakuzu looked at Uehara, working speechlessly. Since this guy was a middleman, he should have hidden the exchange price.

Once these two people start trading privately, Uehara may be passively unemployed. Fortunately, they were still abiding by the rules.

After Kakuzu and Sasori left, Uehara began to practice hand seals again, but an unexpected guest came.

Zetsu’s body emerged from the office.

Black Zetsu said gloomily, “Uehara, it seems like Konan trusts you very much!”

“After all, I am Konan-sensei’s disciple!”

Uehara tilted his head, looked at Zetsu’s figure, and said, “Zetsu-senpai, were you here to apply for funding to?”

“No.”

Zetsu shook his head and looked at Uehara with a grim smile, “I want to talk to you about the Akatsuki’s future.”

“…”

Uehara’s eyelids twitched, and he looked at Zetsu silently, “I’m just an intern of the Akatsuki, and Senpai is only the Akatsuki’s intelligence officer. We don’t need to care too much, right?”

“No, it’s necessary.”

Zetsu slowly stood in front of Uehara and said solemnly, “It seems like Konan has hidden it from you. It’s time to tell you the reason for the Akatsuki’s existence… Uehara, have you heard of the Eye of the Moon Plan?”

“…”

A drop of cold sweat formed on Uehara’s forehead. Something felt wrong.

If he remembered correctly, Nagato and Konan’s goal was to resurrect the superweapon, and only Zetsu, Obito, and Kisame knew about the Eye of the Moon Plan.

Does Zetsu’s small group want to recruit him to join the Eye of the Moon Plan?

Now, how should he answer?

Ten minutes later.

Half an hour later.

An hour later.

After Uehara and Zetsu finished talking about the Eye of the Moon Plan, they sighed internally, “I didn’t expect the Eye of the Moon Plan to be able to create a new world with true peace…”

“Ho ho ho… After all, peace maintained by force can not last long.”

Zetsu looked like a child as he nodded, “Although Madara-sama has passed away, I still inherit his will. I’ll make sure that the Ninja World experiences this kind of peace at any cost…”

“I absolutely support you, Senpai.”

Uehara nodded firmly, and a frenzied light flashed in his eyes, “After the Eye of the Moon Plan completes, there will never be another war. The dream of the Akatsuki inherited from Yahiko-sama’s time will be realized by our hands!”

This was a massive test of his acting skills.

Uehara was afraid that he would burst out laughing if he were not careful.

Zetsu’s mouth bends, revealing a smile, “Uchiha Obito was also a participant in the Eye of the Moon Plan before, but he was too stupid.”

He was serious.

Zetsu really didn’t like Obito, who always failed.

Uchiha clan people were always self-centered, believing that the ninja world was under their control. And the result?

He was kicked out!

Zetsu noticed Uehara’s surprised gaze and continued, “But Obito can also be considered powerful manpower that can help us collect Bijuu in the future.

Recently, I checked his information and found that he didn’t seem to be doing well. Akatsuki can make use of his understanding of the Eye of the Moon Plan and the Rinnegan.”

“I think so too.”

Uehara nodded and said helplessly, “Although Obito-senpai was a bit extreme, he was still a strong ninja… but not everyone in Akatsuki treats Senpai the same way I do.”

Uehara lowered his head to ponder for a while before continuing, “Senpai, we must wait a while before talking to Konan-sensei about Obito-senpai.”

“Okay.”

Zetsu didn’t expect Uehara to act right away.

At least they’ve convinced Uehara. No matter how you look at it, the situation has improved a lot.

Since then, Uehara had one more item in his daily routine, picking a suitable opportunity to persuade Konan and Nagato to let Obito join again.

Occasionally, Zetsu secretly observed it.

Unfortunately, without exception, Uehara’s persuasive speech caused Konan to become even more dissatisfied, making Zetsu question life.

Until one day, Zetsu finally couldn’t help it and took the initiative to ask, “Uehara, was that guy Obito really that annoying?”

“How could he be?”

Uehara habitually gave a smile, “Although he attacked me because his identity has been revealed before, I still think that Obito-senpai isn’t that bad, and I forgave him a long time ago.

It doesn’t matter if he kills me by mistake at the time. I would even sacrifice myself. As long as the Eye of the Moon Plan succeeds and the ninja world can achieve true peace. “

“…”

Zetsu’s expression was a little weird. He raised his head and glanced at Uehara and sighed, “That idiot Obito was really annoying.”

“Nope!”

Uehara shook his head and said with a smile, “In fact, except for the fact that he almost killed me by accident, he was a very lively senpai. I felt that we could’ve gotten along well.”

“No, that’s just me talking to myself.”

Zetsu’s expression was a little cold, and he scolded Obito in his heart.

Uehara was convinced so easily, but Obito wanted to kill him just because his identity was revealed. He really was an idiot.

After Zetsu left, Uehara went to see Mangetsu.

Uehara directly gave Mangetsu a mission, “Find an opportunity to go to Kirigakure and tell Terumi that it was Uchiha Obito who controlled the Fourth Kazekage and the one who implemented the Blood Mist Doctrine.”

“Was it really him?”

Mangetsu’s face was a little surprised.

Up to this point, Mangetsu had not known the truth.

Only Uehara and Kisame knew about it.

“It was him. Kisame knows this as well…”

Uehara nodded and said in a deep voice, “Uchiha Obito has the Mangekyou Sharingan that the legendary Uchiha Madara once owned, and controlling a Jinchuriki is effortless to him.”

After speaking, Uehara handed another piece of paper to Mangetsu, “This is information about Uchiha Obito. You can say that you gathered it all by yourself.”

“Okay.”

Mangetsu agreed, and a smile appeared in his mouth full of sharp teeth, “I can also take this opportunity to meet Suigetsu.”

He had left Kirigakure for a while now, and he missed his brother.

However, Uehara glanced and poured a scoop of cold water on him, “Don’t forget your plan. When you go back this time, you must make your brother hate you more.”

“…Yes.”

Mangetsu nodded dully.
