Land of Fire.
Konoha.
After the sixth team returned, Kakashi took Kanpū and Itachi to Hokage Tower to report the mission process to Minato.
"So the reason for the abnormal movement of one thousand Iwagakure's Shinobi is because of a Missing-nin named Roshi?"
Minato listened to the report of the three people, and there's a look of doubt on his face, "Who is that Roshi?"
Kakashi glanced at Kanpū and then said: "Minato-sensei, Kanpū suspects that Roshi is the illegitimate son of Sandaime Tsuchikage."
The corner of Minato's mouth twitched, and he coughed dryly: "Don't talk nonsense, how can Sandaime Tsuchikage do such a thing."
Kanpū glared at Kakashi and said: "I just say it casually, how can Captain Kakashi take it seriously?"
Kakashi rolled his eye, and said with a snort: "Who made you disrupt my train of thought."
Itachi glanced calmly at the sudden quarrel between Kanpū and Kakashi, secretly thinking that this is a chance to show his worth!
'As long as I keep showing great performance, I will surely gain the joy and trust of Yondaime Hokage, and then, it will be easier to investigate the truth of Brother Shisui's defection!'
Itachi then bravely stepped forward and said: "Hokage-sama, after that Roshi defected, Iwagakure hunted him down but didn't release any bounty. I guess he is carrying something that is not good for Iwagakure. Maybe it is a secret information, or it may be some kind of Forbidden Technique. I think Iwagakure must not want such things to fall into the hands of other Shinobi or Shinoibi Village!"
"I understand!"
"I see!"
Minato and Kakashi realized almost at the same time.
'It's Biju!'
The master and disciple looked at each other and saw the same answer in each other's eyes!
'That Roshi is most likely a Jinchuriki!'
'Only in this way can the series of unreasonable actions of Iwagakure be explained!'
"Minato-sensei, shall we intervene?" Kakashi was eager to move.
Minato lowered his head in silence.
The importance of Biju is self-evident. At this time, competing with Iwagakure for the Biju inside Roshi's body is very likely to cause war.
This is what Minato doesn't want to see.
Furthermore, it was Shodaime Hokage, Senju Hashirama who distributed Ichibi to Hachibi to the other Great Shinobi Villages, aiming to maintain the comprehensive strength of each Shinobi Shinobi Villages, so as to ensure the peaceful situation in the Shinobi World!
If Minato sends someone to snatch the Biju, wouldn't this be a blatant conflict from the 'peace plan' set by Hashirama?
But!
In the decades after Hashirama's death, there have been three Shinobi World Wars in the Shinobi World that had swept the Five Great Shinobi Countries!
History has told Minato that it is impossible to obtain peace by distributing the Biju to the other Great Shinobi Villages!
So, what if they gathered all the nine Biju in Konoha?
Minato frowned. If it was him, he would be able to better maintain peace in the Shinobi World after getting the nine Biju, but what about Godaime? What about the Rokudaime and even the Nanadaime?
As long as the future Hokage has an ambitious character, he will definitely use the power of nine Biju to unify the Shinobi World!
At that time, which Shinobi Villages in the Shinobi World can resist Konoha who has gathered the nine Biju?
Of course, it would be great if the Shinobi World could really be unified.
Minato pondered for a while, still a little undecided, he then sighed, and said in a low voice: "I need to discuss this matter with Sandaime and other advisors."
Kakashi said: "Minato-sensei, we'll take our leave first."
Minato nodded.
After going down the Hokage Tower, Itachi's figure flickered and disappeared quickly, Kanpū wanted to leave, but was stopped by Kakashi.
"Kanpū, did you already guess that Roshi is Jinchuriki?" Kakashi stared at Kanpū closely, with bright and piercing gaze.
"Why do you think so?" Kanpū stared blankly, his expression was just right, with both the grievance of being wronged and the unyielding spirit of resistance, he can be called a role model of drama king.
Kakashi was obviously bewildered by Kanpū's expression, then think about it again, 'Even if Kanpū guessed that Roshi is Jinchuriki, so what?'
'He can't catch Roshi by himself.'
Kakashi shrugged, and said: "It's nothing."
"Meow~~"
Suddenly, a cat cry came from in front of the two of them.
Kanpū looked down and saw that it was a chubby big orange cat. After confirming its figure, it was the fat orange.
Kakashi's body immediately trembled, and he covered his face with his hands helplessly: 'How long are these stray cats going to hold grudges?!!'
'Didn't I just poke the big black cat in the butt eye once?'
(#`д*)
'Why is it endless?!'
Kakashi's heart is already full of holes.
With his figure flickers, Kakashi left without a trace.
"Meow!!"
The fat orange meowed and hurriedly chased after him.
Kanpū looked up at the sky: 'I didn't see anything, I didn't know anything.'
...
Land of Waterfall.
On a certain waterfall, the rushing river was surging continuously, one after the other, but at a certain moment, the violent river water suddenly stopped...
"Ice Release: Ice Crystal Dragon!"
Along with ice crystals and snowflakes flying wildly in the sky, the temperature on the waterfall suddenly dropped to freezing point, and the entire rushing river was frozen into a glacier in an instant!
At the same time, the countless ice crystals quickly condensed and compressed in mid-air, and in a blink of an eye, it turned into a huge ferocious ice dragon, winding and twisting, cutting the sunlight into countless fine pieces of magnificent luster, which are dazzling.
Roar!!
The ice dragon raised its head to the sky and roared silently, and then slammed into the lava fireball straightforwardly.
Boom!
The ice crystals burst, the lava flew, the intense high temperature and extremely cold ice crystals crazily rubbed in mid-air, and countless ice fragments turned into dense water vapor in the high temperature, covering the ice dragon fireball like floating clouds.
"Ice Release?"
Roshi looked at Hyōketsu, and said with a snort, "I didn't expect to see Yuki Clan's Kekkei Genkai here, who are you?"
"Me?"
Hyōketsu squinted his eyes, his thoughts revolved, and then he said, "I am Yuki Hyōketsu, from Abyss."
He wanted to lie, but after careful consideration, he felt it was unnecessary.
Hyōketsu is the only one in the Shinobi World who has Ice Release and the ability to rival Jinchuriki. Even if he can lie to Roshi, if the news spreads, can he still hide it from Obito and Nagato?
So there is no need to lie!
Besides, by appearing as Abyss's members, there are actually several conveniences.
First of all, Akatsuki knows that Hyōketsu, who teamed up with Zetsu, is just a shadow clone, so if his 'main body' appears here to deal with Roshi, it makes sense.
Secondly, Nagato and Obito have always been curious about Abyss's strength. If the news of this battle against Yonbi's Jinchuriki is leaked one day, they will happen to show the strength of Abyss silently.
Ōmadara and Tenkū, who own Sharingan and Explosion Release Kekkei Genkai, plus Hyōketsu's Ice Release and 'Hyuga Taki"s Byakugan, are enough to shock Akatsuki.
Also, Abyss is only interested in Kekkei Genkai. It just so happens that Roshi is good at Lava Release in addition to being a Jinchuriki, so in this way, there is no problem with them going for Yonbi?
"Yuki Hyōketsu?"
Roshi thought for a while, shook his head, and said with a snort, "I have never heard of it, what is your purpose?"
"My purpose? Of course it is to invite you to join Abyss!" Hyōketsu said with a smile.
"I refuse!"
Roshi glanced at the slowly dissipating water vapor above the waterfall, feeling shocked in his heart: 'The other party's Ice Release's power is no worse than my Lava Release.
"Don't worry, there's still me." Yonbi, who is inside Roshi's seal world, said.
"That's right, with the two of us working together, it's useless no matter how many Ice Release Shinobi come!" Roshi is full of confidence.
"I told you to stop saying nonsense, just beat him half to death first before talking!"
Tenkū is eager to get into action, so he immediately jumped to the middle of the ice waterfall, and his hands clenched fiercely and he throws his fist towards Roshi, "Explosion Release - Landmine Punch!"
Boom!
With the rumbling sound of the violent explosion, the ice waterfall that had been frozen into a huge pile broke instantly, turning into a huge 'Ice Release attack', hitting straight towards Roshi on the pool.
'Kekkei Genkai again?'
Roshi's face turned serious, and his hands quickly formed hand seals: "Lava Release: Scorching Stream Rock Technique!"
Huge amount of Chakra gathered in his chest in an instant, and then Roshi shot out a huge lava fireball from his mouth again.
The hot lava fireball instantly melted through the 'Ice Release attack', unabated, carrying the terrifying heat and flames, crashing into Tenkū like a comet.
"Explosion Release – Bomb King!!"
Tenkū's eyes showed a crazy fighting intent, his fists gathered with Explosion Release, and then he blatantly smashed his fist into the lava fireball.
Boom boom!!
With the violent roar, the surging explosive air wave detonated wildly from Tenkū's fists, exploding the lava fireball into a ball of flowing fire, which rolled back backwards.
Boom…
At the same time, the huge ice also fell into the pool, stirring up countless water waves and splashing water droplets all over the sky.
In the next moment, the flowing fire rolled back, burning the ice waterfall sinking and floating into countless water vapor, and in a blink of an eye, the entire pool is filled.
"Ice Release: Ice Age!"
Above the waterfall, Hyōketsu clasped his hands together, and the majestic Chakra turned into a huge torrent of ice crystals, pouring endlessly into the pool.
Crack crack…
The turbulent water pool seemed to be frozen in time, and the waves and clusters of water droplets froze at a speed visible to the naked eye!
In an instant, the pool of water turned into a pool of ice.
The ice pool was very cold, and the turbulent waves turned into ice waves that condensed in the air, and under the ice waves, stood a small ice sculpture.
The face of ice sculpture is vague, but a bright red color can be seen inside, which is Roshi's hair.
"It's over?"
Ōmadara frowned, "Isn't this guy too weak?"
"I haven't had enough of it yet!" Tenkū also shouted with dissatisfaction.
"Don't worry, he's a Jinchuriki, how could it end just like this?" Hyōketsu is confident but not arrogant. He knew that no Jinchuriki is so easy to deal with.
Sure enough, in the cold water pool, a strange red vapor gradually diffused from the top of the ice sculpture.
When Tenkū saw this, he secretly thought that he was so smart, as he couldn't just watch Roshi come out.
So he jumped down, clenched his fists, and made a move to the ice sculpture: "Explosion Release – Bomb King!"
Boom!!
The terrifying explosion turned into a wave of air visible to the naked eye which passed through the middle of the ice sculpture. In an instant, the ice flakes turned into a ring and spread, and then the ice sculpture was swept by the air waves, breaking apart with the sound of ice cracking!
