Naruto: Konoha’s Kanpu

Chapter 759: Taking Advantage of Opportunities...

The Land of Rice Fields was adjacent to the Land of Iron, and the sea territory of the two countries is naturally closely connected.

In less than half a day, Ōmadara’s ship has sailed into the Land of Rice Fields’ sea territory.

The sea breeze is roaring, the waves are rolling, and Ōmadara is standing on the deck, gazing into the distance.

Until nightfall, a dark spot appeared on his left.

“Is that it?”

Ōmadara quickly notified the captain to change the course.

About half an hour later, the large ship slowly approached the island.

At this time, with dim moonlight, Ōmadara couldn't see the situation on the island clearly, so he asked the captain to stop the boat here and gently robbed the captain and the sailors of all the money they had, just in case they abandoned him and ran away.

When the captain and a group of sailors saw Ōmadara jumped into the sea, they couldn't hold back their grievances, and curses erupted.

“I want to beat him up!”

“He took back all the hiring fees he gave us!”

“So unreasonable!”

“I always felt that he is going to freeload on this sea voyage. So annoying.”

“Everyone I can hear you.”

When the sailors were cursing with gusto, a head suddenly popped out from outside the ship's side, and Ōmadara, with a calm gaze, looked at them.

There was a time when Kanpū had turned into Taki and went to Land of Whirlpools to dig the remains of Uzumaki Clan’s ancestors, but he absolutely didn’t expect the ship would be gone after he’s finished his task!

Ōmadara, who has grown wise, naturally has learned a lesson. The first step is to steal all the money from the captain and the sailors, and the second step is to eavesdrop on their conversations. If they dare to ‘gather the crowd and make trouble’, then it is necessary to eliminate a few troublemakers on behalf of the Moon!

Fortunately, the conscience of these scoundrels is not bad.

“Uh…”

The sailors looked at Ōmadara, who had returned, in disbelief. They were all feeling quite frustrated.

“Shinobi-sama, we… we were just venting, there’s no other meaning, hehe.” The captain stepped forward with a forced smile.

“Behave yourselves.”

Ōmadara issued a cold threat, then jumped off the sea and headed straight for the island.

Five minutes later, Ōmadara saw the whole island.

The island was not large, and the whole land is yellowish brown, with no grass and no birds.

Ōmadara is overjoyed. This island is exactly the same as the images Kanpū had seen from Kimimaro’s mind!

‘Perfect, this is the place!’

Quickly rushing onto the island, Ōmadara identified the direction and headed swiftly towards Orochimaru's base entrance.

……

On a steep cliff in the eastern coastal area of ​​the Land of Fire, Kimimaro is lying on the rock, falling into a deep sleep under the faint moonlight and the cool sea breeze.

Kanpū and Ōmadara stood by his side, looking at each other with tired expressions.

The two had spent the whole afternoon ‘restoring’ Kimimaro’s memories, constantly demonizing Orochimaru and glorifying themselves, but the effect… wasn't quite satisfactory.

Kanpū gave Ōmadara a meaningful look, and then the two walked away one after the other.

“Ōmadara, what do you think?” Kanpū asked.

“Let’s just watch.”

Ōmadara then said, “It may be that your previous Mind Reading Technique was too much. After losing his memory, Kimimaro became too dull. It feels like he doesn't care about anything we say.”

Kanpū nodded: “I feel that way too.”

Although Kimimaro has become a white paper, it is a piece of kraft white paper. It is difficult for them to leave their imprint on him in a short time.

As for the consequences of Mind Reading Technique… Kanpū doesn’t know.

“Why don’t I take him first and use time to slowly influence him?” Ōmadara suggested.

Kanpū pondered for a moment, then shook his head slowly, and said: “I have another, better plan.”

Kanpū planned to send Kimimaro to Kabuto to work as an assistant and leave a shadow clone to brainwash Kimimaro.

At any rate, Kabuto has his Cursed Mark in his heart, so Kanpū is not afraid of him leaking information about their connection.

At the same time, Kanpū also wants to know how Kabuto’s Hashirama’s cell’s transplant experiment is going, and let Kabuto check if there was a way to cure Kimimaro’s Kekkei Genkai disease.

Although Kimimaro died of illness in the original work, it was still worth a try.

Ōmadara nodded and said: “In that case, I'll leave first.”

After saying that, he dispersed himself.

Then, Kanpū walked over and grabbed Kimimaro, activated Sage Mode and climbed along the network cable towards the capital of the Land of Iron.

…

Land of Rice Fields’ coastline.

Orochimaru, who ran for a long time, finally arrived here.

He looked up at the moon and thought that he should be able to reach the northern island’s base before midnight.

However, for some reason, a faint sense of foreboding suddenly surged in his heart.

Since his clone from northern island’s base took Kimimaro to the Land of Fire, there are only about ten subordinates responsible for guarding the base, as well as a series of research materials related to Jugo and Cursed Seal.

“Could it be… Abyss already knows the existence of northern island’s base from Kimimaro?”

Orochimaru frowned, and for the sake of caution, he dared not go there personally.

He waved his kimono sleeves, and a white snake crawled out. Opening its mouth, it sprayed out a clone covered in viscous liquid.

“Go quickly.” Orochimaru’s voice was hoarse and soft, filled with a mysterious and creepy tone.

“Understood.”

The clone of Orochimaru nodded slightly, jumped into the sea, and rushed towards the northern island’s base.

……

On the yellow-brown island, Ōmadara navigated through twists and turns and smoothly found the entrance of the base: a long, narrow and deep cave.

According to the images in Kimimaro’s mind, Ōmadara knew that there are two Orochimaru’s subordinates hidden outside the cave.

Ōmadara squinted his eyes, silently activated 3-Tomoe Sharingan, a sly smile on his lips. He walked towards the entrance, taking one step at a time.

When he was only a few steps away from the cave, a sharp sound of cutting the air suddenly struck from the left and right. Then, two shadows rushed towards him at a speed almost impossible to perceive …to deliver their heads.

Pufftt!

Pufftt!

Two kunai smoothly passed through Ōmadara’s mirage-like body, cleanly piercing into the bodies of the oncoming shadows.

‘How is it possible?’

A Shinobi dressed in black was in disbelief as he looked at the kunai stuck in his chest. This kunai was thrown out by his companion on the other side. How could it end up piercing his body?

He looked up and found that his companion was also staring at him with an incredulous expression on his face.

The two fell to their knees with a thump, their vitality dissipating.

Ōmadara walked through the two with a faint smile, and entered the cave

With the images from Kimimaro’s mind, Ōmadara proceeded effortlessly, taking care of Orochimaru’s subordinates along the way.

Soon, he reached the deepest part of the base, an… iron prison!

“Who are you?”

Jugo stood in the prison, gripping the iron bars anxiously, and looked at Ōmadara with vigilance, “Your eyes…”

“What’s wrong with my eyes?” Ōmadara’s scarlet Sharingan exuded a hazy luster, the pupil power flowed, and a Genjutsu was silently thrown.

Jugo’s brow jumped, feeling his eyelids heavy. And in no time, he fell into a deep sleep.

“Orochimaru, your Jugo, I will take it! Thank you.”

Ōmadara rudely opened the iron prison, grabbed Jugo and walked out. Then, as if remembering something, he turned and ran towards a corridor, finally stopping in front of a laboratory.

‘Cursed Seal…’

Ōmadara squinted his eyes. Although using the Curse Mark would cause a ‘monsterfication’, it was not bad for enhancing the strength of his subordinates. Although Abyss currently had no outsiders, however, adhering to the principle of taking advantage of any opportunity, Ōmadara decided to take away the research data about the Cursed Seal!
