Chapter 130
Zixu quickly located Karin with his perception, and she sensed him as well. The two would soon meet, leaving Rosinante with the unfortunate task of finding Jiraiya.
After all, Jiraiya was not the kind of man to sit in an office handling village affairs. The cage of power could never hold down a wandering dragon.

"Karin, why are you here?" Zixu asked, though he already knew the answer.
"Hey, I'm just gathering information," Karin said casually, moving closer to Zixu. She quickly reported the intelligence she had gathered.
"Hmm... It seems Konoha hasn't changed much, but I refuse to believe that Danzo hasn't been up to something behind the scenes," Zixu muttered, his eyes narrowing.
He knew better than to underestimate Konoha's development—especially after inheriting Sarutobi Hiruzen's memories. With that knowledge, he became extremely wary of the largest village in the ninja world.
Danzo had been experimenting with Sharingan and First Hokage cells for a long time. Most of the Uchiha clan's Sharingan—after their massacre—had been seized by the old schemer.
Speaking of Sharingan, one name immediately came to Zixu's mind: Uchiha Shisui.
The wielder of Kotoamatsukami, the most powerful genjutsu ever conceived. This technique could rewrite a person's will without their knowledge, turning them into the caster's puppet.
Although Shisui was said to have committed suicide and destroyed his own eyes, Zixu was certain that Danzo had already seized one of them.
