It's been 24 years, why am I reincarnated in Konoha without a system?

Chapter 517 Koishikawa defies fate, who is the mastermind?



Chapter 517 Koishikawa defies fate, who is the mastermind?

"Another failure? Damn it, this is the forty-eighth one! Nagato, how much longer are we going to continue this cruel experiment?" Inside the Amegakure base, Yahiko angrily shouted as he looked at the child struggling helplessly and losing consciousness in the orange-red potion.

Although he had expected this to happen, he still couldn't bear to accept it when he witnessed these innocent children become corpses.

"I told you not to come. I'm enough for this kind of thing!" Nagato glanced at him indifferently, without directly answering his question.

Although he also felt reluctant to do such a thing, he knew that he could not be swayed by sentimentality.

There are no innocent victims in war; this is the continuation of their war with Konoha!

"Huh? Another one. The child the Fourth Hokage is watching?" Nagato suddenly murmured, his pupils trembling, causing Yahiko, who was about to leave, to pause.

"The Fourth Hokage? Jiraiya's teacher's student?"

"Hmm, I hope he won't let us down..." Nagato nodded, and soon Pain, with black chakra rods stuck in his face, emerged from the ground using Wood Release.

In his hands, he was holding a child with terrified, tearful eyes, clearly frightened by the scene!

"Let's begin. Since we're already here, I want to see what's so special about the child that the Fourth Hokage is paying attention to."

Yahiko pointed and urged through gritted teeth. Since the child was going to become a guinea pig anyway, he might as well wait and see.

"Hmm..." Nagato didn't waste any words and nodded in response. Then, Madara Tondo threw the child directly into the separated orange-red adaptant container.

The next second, witnessed by Yahiko, the child only experienced a brief moment of panic before adapting and showed no other reaction.

Nagato and Yahiko exchanged a glance, both seeing the shock and hope in each other's eyes. They then immediately held their breath and stared intently at Xiao Chaomen.

After another half day, seeing their child still full of energy, the two finally felt relieved.

"Finally found him. With his current performance, he should be able to hold out for a day without any problem." Yahiko smiled, accepting the outcome.

Although forty-eight children were sacrificed, once this cruel mission is completed, the matter will be finally over!

"Yes, the children before would struggle and die within an hour at most, without exception." Nagato sighed with emotion, but also breathed a sigh of relief.

To be honest, watching those children lose their breath one by one stirred his heart, and he might have gone mad if he continued.

"When the time comes tomorrow, inform that guy Jigen that this mission can be terminated," Yahiko shouted excitedly, then immediately turned and left.

This good news must be told to Xiao Nan. That guy couldn't bear to leave her and didn't come along, but she was also suffering inside.

Meanwhile, in the Hokage's office in Konoha.

"What?! Koishikawa is missing?! When did this happen?!" Upon receiving the news, the Fourth Hokage slammed his fist on the table and exclaimed in shock. That was Koishikawa...

Damn it, how could this happen!

"It must have been around dusk when we decided to monitor families with children in shifts and wait for them to come to us. When the ANBU team arrived there, they discovered that something was wrong. The Mitarai couple were seriously injured and unconscious, and their child, Mitarai Chaomen, was nowhere to be found!" Kakashi explained succinctly, his eyes lighting up with delight as he spoke.

“However, Minato-sensei, this time is different from before. The missing person’s parents were not killed or unaware of the situation. The Mitarai couple must have been attacked, but I don’t know why they weren’t killed.”

"However, this is also our opportunity. In order to find the culprit quickly, I handed Uncle Higashino over to Lady Tsunade, and Aunt Keiko was sent to Konoha Hospital by the Anbu. I believe that with Lady Tsunade's emergency treatment, we will have results soon..."

"Is that so? Well done, Kakashi." The Fourth Hokage's eyes lit up instantly. With Tsunade's medical ninjutsu, there should be results soon.

If the murderer is found, it should still be not too late to organize a rescue!

Damn it, if something happens to Koishikawa, who knows if it will affect Ishikawa's ability to shatter the alliance between the two Konoha villages...

Moreover, Xiao Chaomen is a child he plans to focus on developing in the future. He has already decided to pair that child with the soon-to-be-born Naruto and Sasuke, with Kakashi leading the team. At this time, he absolutely cannot allow any accidents to happen!!

"Minato-sensei, something terrible has happened."

Just as the Fourth Hokage was about to activate the Flying Thunder God Technique to find Tsunade and obtain firsthand information, Obito rushed in in a great hurry, followed by Tsunade and Orochimaru, both with serious expressions.

"Obito, stop being so mysterious! Did Higashino-san say something?" Kakashi urged immediately upon hearing this. But how did this guy end up with Tsunade and the others?

"Madara, the murderer is Uchiha Madara." Obito had no time to argue with Kakashi and directly made a shocking statement.

"What?!"

Instantly, the Fourth Hokage and Kakashi exclaimed in surprise, never expecting this outcome.

Especially the Fourth Hokage, who already knew that Madara Uchiha had been tricked and killed by Sasuke, so there was no way he could have been the one to kill that guy!

But now that Obito is speaking so confidently, could it be that some unexpected situation has arisen?

"Teacher, this is the information I finally confirmed using illusion magic. Uncle Higashino didn't lie! To be honest, I'm still a bit confused and find it hard to believe..." Seemingly seeing the Fourth Hokage's doubts, Obito hurriedly patted his chest to assure him.

He was also aware of Madara Uchiha's death, which is why he was even more shocked and returned to report immediately.

"Fourth Hokage, the current situation doesn't necessarily prove that the enemy is Uchiha Madara. Perhaps someone is impersonating him. I suggest we increase vigilance and start gathering clues and investigating from the Higashino family." Seeing the Fourth Hokage's somewhat bewildered expression, Orochimaru stepped forward and offered his advice.

From beginning to end, he never believed that the murderer was the legendary Uchiha Madara.

According to Higashino's intelligence, Madara Uchiha was too young, about the same age as when Konoha was first founded.

How could such a thing be possible? Even the Reincarnation technique that Ishikawa-kun gave him couldn't stop his body from aging; he could only prolong his life by changing bodies.

Now you're telling him that Madara Uchiha, who's nearly seventy or eighty years old, is a young man? Are you kidding me...?

“I also agree with Orochimaru’s point of view. Madara Uchiha was killed by his grandfather, the First Hokage, long ago, there is no doubt about that. Moreover, given Madara Uchiha’s arrogance and pride, he would never have done such a thing!” Tsunade followed up, making the Fourth Hokage suddenly come to his senses.

Yes, could this be a premeditated scam?

"In short, we must investigate no matter what. At all costs, mobilize the entire village's tracking team and use my Flying Thunder God Kunai to conduct a thorough search. We must find that guy and Xiao Chaomen."

Suddenly, the fourth generation slammed his fist on the table and gave a fierce order.

No matter who it is, he will not allow them to continue acting so recklessly...
