Uchiha En also learned about the changes in Kirigakure the next day.
Although the intelligence did not mention the Yuki Clan, Uchiha En was still worried, as he valued the piece named Ujiha greatly.
Therefore, Uchiha En decided to go to Kirigakure to check out the situation.
Uchiha En intended to go and return quickly, so he did not ask Minato Namikaze for leave. Instead, he directly summoned Lightning and flew toward the Land of Water.
As soon as Uchiha En entered the Land of Water, he sensed White Zetsu clones underground, and there were quite a few of them.
"It looks like it's not just Kirigakure; the entire Land of Water is under Obito's control." Uchiha En thought to himself.
Obito also received intelligence that Uchiha En had appeared in the Land of Water.
"Obito, what should we do?" White Zetsu asked.
"Uchiha En has also awakened the Mangekyo. I'll go test him and see if I can figure out the ability of his other eye." After speaking, Obito's figure vanished.
At this moment, Uchiha En, who was heading toward Kirigakure, suddenly stopped.
Having used Teleportation for so long, Uchiha En's spatial perception had become extremely sharp.
He turned his head to the right. The next second, space twisted, and Obito's figure slowly appeared.
The instant Obito's figure surfaced, Uchiha En instantly teleported over and slashed his blade toward Obito's mask.
Now, Uchiha En's Teleportation was not only fast, but it had also compensated for his deficiency in attack speed.
*Crack—* Obito was caught completely off guard and had no time to react. A crack appeared on his mask from the slash, and his face was cut. If he hadn't phased out in time, his head might have been sliced off entirely.
Since awakening the Mangekyo Sharingan, this was the first time Obito had nearly been killed. A layer of cold sweat seeped onto his forehead.
But Obito quickly calmed down. He lowered his voice and said, "Was that Space-Time Ninjutsu just now? Junior, you truly surprise me."
"Junior? Don't tell me you're Uchiha Madara?" Uchiha En asked with a strange expression.
"That's right, I am Uchiha."
"Stop! Don't you know I've met Uchiha Madara?"
Obito was stunned by the remark. He truly hadn't known that; Black Zetsu and White Zetsu hadn't told him!
"You must be a substitute Uchiha Madara found before he died, right? And it looks like you've awakened the Mangekyo. Why don't you take off your mask and let me see? Maybe we know each other!"
Obito snorted coldly upon hearing this. Uchiha En sensed spatial fluctuations around him again, followed immediately by a spiral-shaped flame that appeared out of thin air and blasted toward Uchiha En.
Uchiha En quickly showed no intention of dodging. A row of dark blue skeletal ribs materialized around his body, blocking Obito's attack.
"Susanoo!" Obito's expression turned ugly when he saw the technique.
One of his Mangekyo eyes was with Kakashi, and he couldn't activate Susanoo using only one Mangekyo.
"Where's your Susanoo? Bring it out and let me see! Since I awakened the Mangekyo Sharingan, I haven't seen a second person use this technique!"
"The Eye power of the Mangekyo is limited. Aren't you afraid of going blind using Susanoo so casually?" Obito retorted.
"I'm not! I made a deal with Uchiha Madara and found a way from him to solve Mangekyo blindness. Now my eyes won't go blind."
Obito fell silent upon hearing this. He realized he seemed to have no way to deal with Uchiha En.
Uchiha En's Body Flicker Technique just now involved spatial fluctuations; there was no doubt Uchiha En was also using Space-Time Ninjutsu.
With the boost from Space-Time Ninjutsu and Susanoo, Uchiha En was virtually invincible. To probe Uchiha En's Mangekyo Dojutsu, Obito would definitely have to reveal some trump cards.
But Obito did not want to expose his trump cards here.
Thinking this, Obito decided not to continue entanglement with Uchiha En and turned to leave.
Uchiha En sensed the spatial fluctuation, smiled slightly, and said, "The changes in Kirigakure must be related to you, right? Did you use the Mangekyo to control the Fourth Mizukage?"
Obito said nothing, and his figure completely vanished.
Uchiha En didn't mind and continued rushing toward Kirigakure.
Along the way, Uchiha En did not eliminate the White Zetsu clones underground, allowing them to report his whereabouts to Obito.
Obito's expression turned ugly when he learned that Uchiha En was continuously heading toward Kirigakure.
Now, he only had one choice: whether or not to deploy Kirigakure personnel to directly intercept and kill Uchiha En.
If he made a move, Uchiha En would likely choose to retreat.
But doing so would be tacitly admitting that the Mizukage was under his control, and Uchiha En could subsequently find a way to inform the people of Kirigakure.
Don't forget, there is a person in Kirigakure who possesses the Byakugan, and he can see the flow of Chakra within the human body.
In this way, the matter of the Fourth Mizukage being controlled would be completely exposed.
But if he didn't send people to stop Uchiha En and let Uchiha En meet the Fourth Mizukage, the fact that the Fourth Mizukage was controlled by Genjutsu would still be exposed.
Thinking of this, Obito gritted his teeth and decided to order Yagura to send people to intercept and kill Uchiha En.
Just then, Obito suddenly received a message from White Zetsu: "Obito, Uchiha En hasn't entered Kirigakure; he suddenly stopped."
"Stopped? Where did he stop?"
"A few kilometers outside the entrance to Kirigakure, and he also cleared out the clones near me."
"Obito, Uchiha En probably wants to contact a high-ranking official inside Kirigakure to tell them the Fourth Mizukage is being controlled, and have that official expose the matter," Black Zetsu said.
"Should we release control over the Fourth Mizukage? That way, even if Uchiha En tells the Kirigakure higher-ups, it will be useless," White Zetsu offered his suggestion.
"No, the moment we release control over Yagura, he will definitely explain the situation to the Kirigakure higher-ups," Black Zetsu immediately objected.
"No, not necessarily. I think what White Zetsu said makes sense. The last time Uchiha Madara controlled Yagura, Yagura must have broken free of the control upon Madara's death. Yagura didn't say much then and covered up the fact that he was controlled.
I don't think he will speak up this time either. If the fact that a Village's Kage was controlled and massacred two major clans in the Village gets out, how can Kirigakure maintain its standing in the Ninja World?"
After hearing White Zetsu's words, Obito remained silent for a moment before deciding that if Uchiha En truly managed to arrange a meeting with a high-ranking official from Kirigakure, he would follow White Zetsu's suggestion.
In any case, even if they did nothing, there was a high chance Yagura's control would be exposed, so why not take a gamble?
Even if Yagura really told people about being controlled, the outcome for them would be the same as the current situation.
