Restarting Life: Call Me the Leader of Konoha

"Aren't you worried about being suspected by coming to Konoha at this time?"

The two natural tear troughs seemed to be deeper, almost becoming nasolabial lines.

——Uchiha Itachi, a spy lurking in Akatsuki under the pretext of gathering intelligence.

He was supposed to return home after the death of the Third Hokage on the pretext of capturing the Nine-Tails, but because Jiraiya went to Amegakure to investigate, Pain took the initiative to hunt the Nine-Tails, and Itachi had no room to intervene.

So I can only choose this time to come and exchange information...

The gates of Konoha were still open to him, and the barrier class had not made any unusual movements so far.

But Kakashi now undoubtedly knows more than him.

"No problem. He was too busy to spare time. Most likely, the situation developed beyond expectations. He had no time to care about me. He only had time to leave a task before leaving."

As for the 'he' mentioned, Kakashi already knew who he was, not to mention that they had fought against him twice.

Just one thing is strange: "Mission?"

“Hunting the Eight-Tails.

"However, even though Kisame is good at dealing with Jinchūriki, Killer Bee of Kumogakure was traveling with the Fourth Raikage. In the end, the two of us only intercepted a clone transformed from a severed whisker."

It seems that the 'mission' has been completed...

Kakashi had already experienced the power of the 'Abby Combination'. It was amazing enough for him to cut off one of their whiskers when dealing with them.

Although it is a clone, a piece of severed beard is actually enough.

Kakashi knew that to awaken the Ten-Tails and become its Jinchūriki, the most important thing was to gather the chakra of all nine tailed beasts first, and the quality was secondary.

"At this juncture, he left because of more important things..." Uchiha Itachi shook his head and said, "I don't know where he is going."

In order to fight for the last tailed beast, it was not difficult for Kakashi to deduce the so-called more important things.

The one he had always been wary of.

Like Orochimaru, Kabuto Yakushi possesses the power of Impure World Reincarnation.

It is still unknown whether the opponent has mastered the "Sage Mode", but the "Immortality Reincarnation" of his subordinates is the most important thing that cannot be ignored.

This will bring in a host of troublesome enemies...

"Senior Kakashi." Uchiha Itachi said seriously.

It was unexpected that Payne took the initiative to hunt Nine, but it was even more unexpected for him to die at the hands of the man in front of him...

"I came here this time because I have something more important to give you."

Kakashi's eyes flashed, and he said in a deep voice: "That's right, I also need your help with something..."

After saying goodbye to Itachi, Kakashi began to think seriously.

The scale of the Ninja War was beyond imagination.

It was impossible for him to take care of the overall situation by himself, especially since there were many battlefields that were difficult for him to handle...

Overwhelmed!

It takes a bit more planning and arrangement.

Not only Itachi, but also all the power that can be mobilized must be obtained, even including that...

......

In the Konoha Forest, two figures dressed in red clouds and black robes walked by.

"You should know that I am in charge of watching you, Itachi-san."

"This has nothing to do with me. Just report truthfully when you go back, Kisame. I won't make things difficult for you. As for what happens after that, it has nothing to do with you." Itachi said lightly.

At this point, it doesn't really matter whether or not to continue lurking.

Kakuzu and Hidan were just people who wanted to get benefits, so they would continue to serve him, but he didn't need to...

According to Kakashi, he still had something to do, and it was extremely crucial.

But before that, we need to wait until the war officially starts and find the person in Konoha!

"Mr. Itachi, you said that people can only recognize themselves at the last moment of their lives, right?"

"After all, we are human beings, not drifting fish."

"indeed so......"

As soon as the words fell, a strong sound of wind suddenly hit.

"Keng——!"

The kunai collided with the blade for a moment, and then a sharp cut was made with an ear-piercing sound.

"Mr. Itachi, I just remembered now..."

The white cloth swayed and fell, revealing a ferocious knife covered with barbs.

"It seems we have never officially fought against each other."

......
