Chapter 268 The Thief Crying Stop the Thief

"Heh, two Law-level powerhouses? Quite the undertaking!"

After hearing Tian Mo You's report, Yu Zhibo's face showed a cold smile. Then, with a thought, he issued a withdrawal order to all ninjas executing the substitute mission and refocused his attention on the conversation with Tian Mo You.

"Clone, You, did you get seduced by the Queen? I sent you to be a spy, and you ended up siding with that evil witch. You've truly disappointed me!" Yu Zhibo said to his clone during their mental communication.

The clone's expression was indifferent. His tall, slender body traversed through the turbulent shallow void, crossing space. Upon hearing Yu Zhibo's sarcastic remarks, he thought to himself, "Main body, please don't speak of me that way. Our worldviews are fundamentally the same, only our personalities differ slightly. If you were in my position, you might even be more proactive than I am!"

"Rebellion! The Yu family clone has usurped the master!"

"Idiot!"

After a round of playful banter, Yu Zhibo asked Tian Mo You, "Do you want me to escort you back to Long Country? Wang Shouyi is my father-in-law. With his help, the mark the witch placed on you can likely be dealt with. Once you return to Long Country, I won't reclaim your consciousness, and you can manage everything in the Dawn organization..."

"And then you can finally relax and be a couch potato, right?" Tian Mo's clone rolled his eyes. He sensed the terrifying power contained within the black mark on his neck and shook his head helplessly, knowing that this power was not left by the Demon Queen to restrain him, but rather to allow him to activate the mark's power when in danger, serving as a means of protection.

Tian Mo You refused Yu Zhibo's suggestion to return to Long Country. He simply said faintly in his mind, "When I first appeared in Itachi's image, I had already prepared myself to bear all the darkness. Now that I have finally gained the Queen's trust, there is no reason to give up halfway."

"If that's the case, then be more careful and protect yourself. If you have any important news, remember to notify me!"

Yu Zhibo did not try to persuade him further. On the current planet, the Lighthouse Demon Country, the Marine Creatures, the Oni Country, and the Dragon Country were among the four strongest powers. With Tian Mo You lurking within the high ranks of the Lighthouse Demon Country, he could provide a lot of valuable intelligence that others could not replace.

"I understand, main body. You need to be prepared to receive my mental communications at any time. Don't always reject them. Over and out!"

"Alright, over and out!" Yu Zhibo was a bit speechless. But what was it that his clone had requested mental communication for last time? It seemed to be when he and Bai Chanyi were... well, that was rather unfortunate.

After ending the mental communication, Tian Mo You sensed that he was not far from his destination. With a sweep of his hand, the void before him instantly tore apart like shredded paper. Tian Mo You emerged from the spatial rift and saw that the land below was clearly ravaged, bearing the scars of a fierce battle.

The most striking feature was a deep pit, as if melted into a large hole by extremely high-temperature flames. The edges were still burning with black flames, and even though they were almost extinguished, they still exuded a heart-palpitating pressure.

"Judging by the traces on the battlefield, did they use Kagutsuchi to attach black smoke to the Great Fireball Technique?" Tian Mo You muttered to himself. He snapped his fingers, using his demonic abilities to manipulate the dark matter in the heavens and earth, combining it with the characteristics of dark energy to form a semi-transparent screen in mid-air, replaying the scene from half an hour prior.

In the playback screen, Uchiha Sasuke, in the guise of Itachi, transformed into Susanoo. He then used Kagutsuchi to attach black flames to various ninjutsu, combined with the Sharingan's genjutsu, to completely kill the demon who had obstructed him. Afterward, he used the Flying Thunder God Technique to quickly depart with the demon's corpse.

"Damn it, damn it! How dare you impersonate me and ruin my reputation! I will not rest until I have your life!"

Tian Mo You's expression turned grim. He cursed under his breath, then dispelled the playback screen and plunged back into the void. Mission accomplished!

On the other side, the two Law-level powerhouses sent to intercept the Senju Hashirama brothers and the Uchiha Madara brothers also found nothing. Even after replaying the scenes, the individuals had all used the Flying Thunder God Technique to leave, leaving no trace.

Helpless, they had to take out their phones and send a message to the Queen to report the situation. The message was essentially: Damn it, I finally made a move, and they all ran away beforehand! There's definitely an informant. Queen, you need to quickly find out who it is!

Thus, when Tian Mo You returned, he was met with the Queen's icy gaze.

Tian Mo You's expression remained unchanged. After giving the Queen a slight nod, he walked directly towards the bedroom. After a few steps, a faint voice echoed from behind him: "Itachi, do you have nothing to tell me?"

Tian Mo You turned around and bowed slightly to the Queen, "Queen, I do not understand your meaning."

The Demon Queen said coldly, "Only you, I, Er Tou, Anthony, and Ulysses knew about the interception plan, yet the information was leaked. Who do you think leaked the wind?"

Tian Mo You's expression turned cold and he said, "My feelings for you are as deep as the heavens, so it couldn't have been us who leaked it. As for Mr. Anthony and Mr. Ulysses, they are both old members of the demon race. They have also killed many Dragon Country esper users in previous conflicts with the Dragon Country, so it shouldn't be them either. Therefore, there is only one answer left."

Tian Mo You looked at the Queen, his gaze sincere, and said, "Please execute Er Tou!"

The Queen's expression was impassive. "Doesn't Mr. Itachi know that this interception plan was initiated after Er Tou reported the invasion news?"

"Shouting 'stop thief' is the best way to reduce suspicion. Precisely because he colluded with humans and then proactively reported the news to you for handling, no one would believe he would notify the enemy to escape!"

Upon hearing this, the Queen's face showed a thoughtful expression. She looked at him with a half-smile, "Then, if the news was leaked by Mr. Itachi, isn't framing Er Tou at this moment also a form of shouting 'stop thief'?"

Tian Mo You was taken aback, then said, "Are you suspecting me?"

"Although I don't know what means you used, among the five demons who knew, only you have been close to humans and never eaten human flesh. If you were me, would you not suspect?" The Queen's expression remained unchanged, her gaze towards Itachi extremely cold.
