Under the full-speed travel of Lightning, Uchiha En and Asana quickly arrived at the Land of Lightning.
As soon as they entered the Land of Lightning, Uchiha En and Asana jumped off Lightning. The two used Transformation Jutsu to disguise themselves as two ordinary civilians from the Land of Lightning. This was a basic step for infiltration.
Of course, this was also related to Uchiha En's apprehension toward Kumogakure. When facing the entire Kumogakure, Uchiha En himself would be fine, as he possessed instant transmission. However, Asana did not know Space-Time Ninjutsu, and if something went wrong, she might not be able to escape.
After repeated consideration, Uchiha En and Asana decided to adopt the stupidest method: waiting for the rabbit by the stump.
The Two-Tails Jinchuriki is also a Ninja, and since she is a Ninja, she is bound to execute various missions. The two planned to wait in the Land of Lightning for the Two-Tails Jinchuriki to emerge.
However, even when waiting for the rabbit by the stump, one must know roughly when the rabbit will appear and which tree it will pass by, only then can they wait confidently for the rabbit to deliver itself.
Therefore, Uchiha En decided that while Asana went to retrieve intelligence, he would secretly sneak into Kumogakure and use Genjutsu to control a Kumogakure Jonin, asking him to help scout the Two-Tails Jinchuriki's recent movements.
Except for Kirigakure in the Land of Water, no other Village imposes restrictions on the entry and exit of civilians.
After all, to a Ninja, civilians without Chakra pose no threat at all. An ordinary Genin can easily kill several burly men who lack Chakra.
Therefore, as long as they could pass inspection and enter Kumogakure, the identity of a civilian was the best cover.
Uchiha En certainly wouldn't be foolish enough to submit to an inspection; he could use instant transmission. Uchiha En used Minds Eye to sense an uninhabited location and instantly transmitted himself there.
After infiltrating Kumogakure, Uchiha En began searching for his target. The Two-Tails Jinchuriki is also a Perfect Jinchuriki, possessing at least Kage-level strength, and the missions she undertakes are at least A-rank.
Anyone who can access missions of this rank must be at least a Jonin. Uchiha En began searching for suitable candidates, targeting Jonin.
Ten minutes later, Uchiha En spotted Dodai, who had appeared in the original work.
Uchiha En remembered that Dodai had sealed the Third Raikage, who was resurrected by Edo Tensei, alongside Naruto and others during the Fourth Great Ninja War. The Third Raikage also mentioned that Dodai was the reviewer of the successive generations of Lariat.
Thinking of this, Uchiha En's eyes lit up. Having such an identity made him the perfect choice.
Thus, Uchiha En began his action. He pretended to brush past Dodai, and the moment their eyes met face-to-face, Uchiha En used Genjutsu on Dodai.
Uchiha En's movement was too sudden; Dodai didn't even have time to react before falling under his Genjutsu.
Uchiha En immediately read some of Dodai's memories and discovered that the Two-Tails Jinchuriki was surprisingly not in the Village at this time.
This was truly a pillow delivered when one was sleepy (perfect timing).
Uchiha En immediately gave Dodai an order: take advantage of accompanying the Raikage while practicing Lariat to inquire about the Two-Tails Jinchuriki's recent movements.
Following Uchiha En's command, Dodai pretended to casually mention Yugito during a break in the Raikage's Lariat training.
After the two chatted about Yugito for a while, Dodai followed the Raikage's lead and asked, "Speaking of Yugito, Lord Raikage, where has she been recently? I haven't seen her in a long time."
"Ah, her. She went to escort a caravan to the Land of Rice Fields. Judging by the time, she should be starting her return now. Alright, that's enough for today! Dodai, I'm leaving!" With that, the Raikage turned and departed.
Uchiha En then controlled Dodai to meet him again.
Uchiha En activated his Mangekyo to deepen this segment of Dodai's memory, making Dodai subconsciously believe it was just casual chatter between him and the Raikage, before finally releasing the Genjutsu.
The moment Dodai regained consciousness, Uchiha En brushed past him, completely unnoticed.
Dodai experienced a moment of mental confusion before waking up. Because the memory was intact, Dodai didn't feel anything was wrong, just a slight headache, which made him uncomfortable.
Dodai sat down on a nearby chair to rest for a while. Once the dizziness disappeared, he returned to work as usual.
After Uchiha En obtained the intelligence from the Raikage, he immediately left Kumogakure. After meeting up with Asana, who had also gathered intelligence, the two rushed toward the Land of Rice Fields.
Uchiha En told Asana the intelligence he had just gathered. Asana learned that Yugito should have just completed her mission and was returning, and she also felt this was a golden opportunity.
Uchiha En and Asana discussed it and decided to intercept Yugito within the Land of Rice Fields if possible.
Engaging Yugito inside the Land of Lightning would be a huge problem if Kumogakure received news and managed to arrive in time.
Therefore, Uchiha En summoned Lightning again. Lightning carried Uchiha En and Asana as they flew through the sky, while Uchiha En kept his eyes fixed on the ground below, afraid of missing Yugito.
Soon, Uchiha En and Asana arrived within the borders of the Land of Rice Fields.
Just as the Raikage had said, Yugito had just completed her mission and was advancing toward the Land of Lightning with a squad of Kumogakure Ninja.
Yugito and her group traveled for most of the day. The sky gradually darkened. Since the mission was complete, Yugito was not in a hurry. She ordered the Kumogakure Ninja to stop advancing, planning to rest nearby for the night.
Just as the Kumogakure Ninja lay down, two figures descended from the sky, landing in front of them.
Uchiha En immediately spotted the Two-Tails Jinchuriki, Yugito, in the crowd.
Yugito, however, did not recognize Uchiha En and Asana.
This was because both of them were wearing masks; when doing something like this, they needed some precautions.
However, although Yugito did not recognize Uchiha En and Asana, there was a Sensing Ninja among the accompanying Kumogakure Ninja.
This Sensing Ninja reported to Yugito: "Lady Yugito, these two are very strong. The taller one has a Chakra volume even greater than Lord Raikage's, and the shorter one's Chakra volume is about the same as Lord Raikage's."
Yugito frowned upon hearing this. Although Chakra volume cannot be taken as an absolute standard for judging a Ninja's strength, generally, the larger the Chakra volume, the stronger the Ninja will be, offering an advantage at least in casting Ninjutsu.
With two individuals possessing such enormous Chakra volumes blocking her path, Yugito immediately heightened her vigilance and tentatively asked, "Friends, is there something you need by blocking our way?"
Uchiha En smiled and replied, "I came here to borrow something from you."
"What thing?" Yugito continued to ask.
"The Two-Tails' Chakra, of course!"
Yugito's expression changed drastically upon hearing this, and she immediately activated the Two-Tails Tailed Beast Cloak.
"Heh heh, looks like you won't agree? Then I'll just have to take it myself!"
