"Making a movie?"
Pain expressed his confusion regarding Naruto's actions.
Equally confused was Obito, hidden in the shadows, listening to the report from a White Zetsu clone.
"So you're saying the Nine-Tailed Jinchuriki hasn't deliberately concealed his whereabouts at all, but has been following a film crew full of ordinary people?"
"That should be correct…"
The White Zetsu clone added, "If we hadn't happened to have a clone nearby, we wouldn't have thought he'd appear in such a place."
"By the way, that kid's perception is very strong; we couldn't get close at all. We originally wanted to see the movie's theme too…"
Motherfucker…
Obito, under his spiral mask, frowned deeply as he coldly glanced at the White Zetsu.
The news of Naruto leaving Konoha was no secret. For over a week, various factions had been searching for the Nine-Tailed Jinchuriki's whereabouts.
Not only the major Ninja villages, he also dispatched many White Zetsu to the Land of Fire to secretly inquire about Naruto's news.
However, before he could find anything, the other party had already destroyed the Grass Ninja Village and then disappeared again.
His elusive whereabouts made him suspect for a time whether this kid had learned the Fourth's Flying Thunder God, but after much thought, he felt that Konoha shouldn't be foolish enough to teach such a jutsu to a Jinchuriki.
Moreover, he didn't believe Naruto could master the Flying Thunder God.
A five-year-old kid destroying Grass Ninja Village was the hottest topic in the Ninja World recently.
However, apart from Ōnoki, who received the intelligence early, most people were more inclined to believe that Grass Ninja Village had played with fire and caused the Nine-Tailed to rampage, which led to its destruction.
Obito was the same; after all, he had personally witnessed the Nine-Tailed's power.
And it was precisely because of this 'understanding' that he never thought of extracting intelligence clues from the survivors.
Isn't it normal for Grass Ninja Village to be destroyed by the Nine-Tailed?
Konoha was almost destroyed; what is Grass Ninja Village, that it dares to covet the Nine-Tailed?
Putting the fan left by his ancestors on his back, Obito's figure slowly disappeared with the swirling spatial distortion.
"Since he's been found, I might as well control the Jinchuriki before he grows up…"
Five years ago, he tried to control the Nine-Tailed, and although he ultimately failed, it greatly weakened Konoha's power.
And now, the Nine-Tailed was once again delivered to him.
This time, Obito didn't plan to miss it again.
In recent years, as Nagato's control over the Rinnegan became more proficient, he could no longer restrict his actions.
And Nagato was clearly not on the same page as him; he could see that.
So if he could get his hands on the Nine-Tailed, it would be a very good trump card and could effectively restrict Nagato.
With this thought, Obito set off.
He traveled day and night, enduring dust and dew, and arrived in the Land of Grass overnight.
Then, from several kilometers away, he was locked onto by Naruto's perception…
At this time, the camp was preparing a wrap party for the movie.
Although the filming of "Princess Fuun 2" was delayed due to Naruto, compared to the returns brought by the release of "Naruto Chronicles," a mere few days was nothing.
No matter how well Princess Fuun was filmed, it was still fictional.
But Naruto Chronicles was different; that was a real village-destroying battle!
Completely adapted from a true story, with the original character directly playing the protagonist, the publicity effect was simply explosive, wasn't it?

Unlike Earth, due to the state of affairs, film crews in the Ninja World, from actors to directors, usually came from the same company. The entire crew could be said to share prosperity and decline.
Filming a movie destined to be a hit in a few days meant everyone would surely receive a generous bonus afterward.
Perhaps because of the allure of money, some people in the original crew who feared Naruto due to the destruction of Grass Ninja Village also showed sincere smiles as the movie wrapped.
Naruto, however, never took the fear of these people to heart.
Fear is normal; every person has a fear psychology, but if hatred arises from fear, then that's just asking for trouble.
Fortunately, there were no such people in the crew; instead, due to the contrast between Naruto's powerful strength and his laid-back personality, everyone showed him immense respect and goodwill.
Some female staff members were even overflowing with maternal affection, grabbing Naruto for hugs and touches whenever they had the chance.
So after the movie wrapped, someone suggested holding a wrap party, which would also be a celebration for Naruto's screen debut, and this proposal was unanimously approved by the entire crew.
However, just as everyone was busy preparing for the celebration, Obito arrived.
His undisguised, raw malice was locked onto by Naruto's Chakra from a distance.
"This malice… such cold Chakra."
Inside the camp, Naruto, who was 'forced' to chat and wash vegetables with the aunties and sisters, suddenly stopped his movements.
"It's that guy!"
In the mental space, the Nine-Tailed said coldly, "This feeling, there's no mistake!"
Uchiha Kenji?
He's here already?
Quite fast…
Without hesitation, Naruto created over twenty Wood Clones, put down the vegetables in his hand, and turned to rush in the direction Obito was coming from.
"Oh? Not choosing to run away, but actively approaching me?"
Noticing Naruto's reaction, Obito was also a little surprised: "Or is he worried about implicating those ordinary people? Never mind, no matter what, the result is the same…"
As his voice fell, a reddish-orange light streaked into his vision.
Violent Chakra energy raged furiously, pulverizing all the obstructing branches and spiderwebs along the way.
"To squander Chakra like this…"
Facing the strong wind blowing towards him and those unreserved reddish-orange eyes, Obito couldn't help but sneer in his heart.
"He even dares to look directly at a Sharingan… An ignorant and fearless brat, doesn't he even have the most basic Ninja common sense?"
"If that's the case… Nine-Tailed, I'll take you!"
Looking at the golden-haired brat who showed no intention of talking nonsense and whose face was written with recklessness, Obito sneered and suddenly widened his eyes.
"Sharingan!"
'Negative buff detected: Sharingan Genjutsu, effect: Hypnosis! Erased! Skill obtained: Three-Tomoe Sharingan! Genjutsu: Sharingan!'
"Useless!"
Accompanied by a resentful roar, Naruto punched Obito in the face, then passed straight through him, slamming into the ground with a loud bang, creating a large crater.
It's not Mangekyo!
Feeling the cold Chakra in his right eye, Naruto spat.
And he's even one-eyed!
"Oh, he wasn't controlled? And… he called me useless right away. What an impolite kid."
Seeing that Naruto was not controlled, Obito was surprised.
The moment he turned around, Naruto had already retracted the Sharingan in his right eye, and with a pair of reddish-orange fox eyes, he rushed towards him again!
