Chapter 889: Fight for Jinchūriki

Looking at the ninjutsu scrolls in front of him, for a moment, Kabuto Yakushi seemed somewhat amused.

If the Uzumaki clan really started from humble beginnings, then these clan secret and lost sealing techniques must be what they need. After all, these sealing techniques are the signature of the Uzumaki clan, just like the secret shadow imitation technique passed down from generation to generation by the Nara clan, which must be recovered no matter what.

...But the problem is that they don't need them at all.

Although his current level is only p14, he can't read all the ninjutsu included in the company library, but he can still browse the relevant catalog.

Not to mention these [Four Symbols Seals], [Shiki Fujin] and so on, there are libraries, where the types are much more complete than this, from one to ten are all full...

So looking at the other party's posture, is it a change of tactics?

Chuckling in his mouth, pushing the ninjutsu scrolls in his hand aside, Kabuto Yakushi looked at the people in front of him.

"I'm sorry, the Italian country of the Whirlpool Country has already stated at the beginning that we will be a permanent neutral country. There is no phenomenon of being friendly with any country in particular. This is a principle and cannot be changed."

"Really? Then even the Cloud Village that almost exterminated your Whirlpool clan, you treat it equally?"

Raising his head, Sarutobi Hiruzen looked directly into the other person's eyes.

The wealth controlled by the country of disasters can bring huge benefits to it no matter which country it joins with, so they naturally don't want to miss it.

"Of course, not to mention that they have already made generous compensation."

Yakushi Kabuto smiled in his mouth.

"We will not favor any country, and we will treat all countries and forces equally. This is the specific meaning of the so-called permanent neutral country. There is no need to mention this incident anymore. Let's move on to the next topic."

"...Okay."

After a moment of silence, Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded.

"But these ninjutsu scrolls originally belong to you, so please take them back."

"Next, let's talk about Uzumaki Naruto. I believe this should be what you are most concerned about."

Looking at the ninjutsu scroll beside him, Kabuto Yakushi looked noncommittal.

"As a member of the Uzumaki clan, Naruto Uzumaki has the purest Uzumaki bloodline. He should return to the Uzumaki clan..."

"Impossible!!!"

Before he could finish his words, Danzo suddenly slammed the table and interrupted him angrily.

"The importance of Jinchūriki to the village is unparalleled, not to mention that he is the Nine-Tails Jinchūriki!! We will never hand over the Nine-Tails Jinchūriki to you!!!"

"Jinchūriki?"

Looking at Danzo in front of him, Kabuto Yakushi spoke in a cold tone.

"In your eyes, he is just a Jinchūriki whose name is not even worthy of your mouth, but in our eyes, he is just a pitiful and innocent child."

Without giving the other party a chance to continue speaking, Kabuto Yakushi threw several documents on the table with an expressionless face.

"A few years ago, we have begun to gather the lost Uzumaki clan members in the entire ninja world. Since the fall of the Whirlpool Country, the remaining Uzumaki clan members have been scattered all over the ninja world, either hiding their identities or struggling to survive. In this process, have you Konoha contributed a bit!? Don't tell me that your Konoha intelligence system is not even as good as the miscellaneous soldiers we just formed a few years ago!!"

"We..."

Opening his mouth, Sarutobi Hiruzen seemed to want to say something, but in the end, he still closed his mouth helplessly.

In the face of the ironclad facts, it was meaningless for him to say more.

-Now, in Konoha, except for Uzumaki Naruto, the Nine-Tails Jinchūriki, there is no second Uzumaki clan member.

Maybe there were some before, but they always had various accidents, either missing or dying strangely. Those Uzumaki clan members who fled to Konoha for shelter just disappeared little by little.

It was better when Uzumaki Shinkuna was still there. They occasionally disappeared one or two a year, but with the disaster of the Nine-tailed Night, the remaining Uzumaki clan members in the village disappeared at an incredibly fast speed, either going to the laboratory or going to the root.

There was no way. Namikaze Minato and Uzumaki Shinkuna died in a hurry. The seal on Naruto was not stable at all. They needed a large number of experimental subjects for reference and reinforcement. Isn't it that they can only use the most suitable Uzumaki clan members to start with?

Although in name, these Uzumaki clan members died at the hands of the runaway Nine-tailed, but the actual specific situation is only known to them.

The death of those Uzumaki clan members is valuable. It can be said that they have made an indispensable contribution to the safe growth of the Nine-tailed Jinchūriki.

...But can he tell others about this dark side?

"Take a good look at this. This is the result of our investigation. From the results, it can be seen that Uzumaki Naruto is living a hellish life in your village. We have enough reasons to take him away."

With a cold snort, Kabuto Yakushi looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen in front of him.

"Don't worry, we have never coveted any tailed beasts. We will take the Nine-Tails out of Uzumaki Naruto's body, and you can choose a new Jinchūriki."

There is no wrong version in the book and forum of 16-9!

"Impossible, if the tailed beast leaves the body, the Jinchūriki will definitely..."

"Don't underestimate the foundation of the Uzumaki clan, not to mention that there is an unprecedented genius in the clan now. The problems you are worried about are not even worth a little finger in her eyes."

With his chin slightly raised, Kabuto Yakushi looked proud.

"Since we dare to propose this plan, we are naturally confident enough. You just need to select a new Jinchūriki, and leave the rest to us."

"...No."

After a long silence, as if he had made a decision in his heart, Sarutobi Hiruzen looked up at him.

"Uzumaki Naruto is not only a Jinchūriki, but also the son of the deceased Fourth Hokage. He belongs to Konoha, not Uzumaki."

"!!!"

As Sarutobi Hiruzen said these words, in the meeting room, except for a few people who had guessed it in their hearts a long time ago, such as Uchiha Fugaku or Hyuga Hiashi, the faces of the rest of the people changed slightly.

I don't know what Sarutobi Hiruzen is thinking. Unlike the last meeting, in this meeting, almost all the clan leaders in Konoha who can be called by name were called.

——For these people, the news that Sarutobi Hiruzen just revealed was undoubtedly quite explosive.

"No, this kind of thing should not be decided by you, but by the person involved."

Shaking his head, Yakushi Kabuto spoke calmly.

"If Uzumaki Naruto is willing to stay in Konoha, we will follow his wishes, but if he wants to go back with us..."

"Then we have to take him back no matter what!!"
