In the land of fire, in the inaccessible mountains and old forests, there is a temple.

Konoha's government-in-exile is hiding here.

The Daimyo of the Land of Fire was accustomed to living a life of fine clothes and food, and after becoming the king of the fallen country, he was unable to adapt to the life of a fugitive, but fortunately found this temple.

In order to protect the government-in-exile, among the twelve guardians of the daimyo, there was a monk named Jiriku who disguised himself as the head of the temple.

And in the apse deep in the temple, the people of Konoha led by the ape flying sun slash are concentrating on the forbidden art-

Reincarnation of the Dirt.

It is an S-class psychic forbidden technique that can recall the soul of a dead ninja from the Pure Land to the human world, attach it to the reincarnation container, and resurrect it in the form of a physical entity.

The second Hokage Thousand Hands developed the Filthy Earth Reincarnation, which he performed many times during his lifetime, and became famous in the ninja world for this technique.

It's just that the reputation of this technique is not very good.

Many people's evaluations of Thousand Hands are words such as "despicable" and "bad", and they despise him very much. Even his eldest brother, Thousand Hands Pillar, said that the reincarnation of the filthy earth was not a good ninjutsu.

After all.

In the final analysis, this technique is to desecrate the body and soul of the deceased, so that the family cannot be at peace when they die, which is indeed too lacking in morality.

Known as the "Ninjutsu Professor", Sarutobi has mastered thousands of ninjutsu, but learning the forbidden art of reincarnation of the filthy earth also makes him feel extremely difficult.

After so many days, there is still no big progress.

Sarutobi had to sigh that the second generation of Hokage was a true genius, and as a disciple, he could hardly match it.

At this moment, Jiraiya, who had gone out to spy on intelligence, hurried back to the temple.

From his mouth, Sarutobi learned about the major events that happened in the ninja world during this time.

It's all related to the Uchiha clan.

"These things... Is it all true? ”

Ape Fei Sun Slash felt incredulous.

Obviously, the Uchiha broke and stopped the water were dead, but as a result, the Uchiha clan came up with four pairs of kaleidoscopes, controlled the three tailed orcs pillar power, and even came up with the wooden figure technique of the original Hokage.

The strength of the Uchiha is increasing day by day, and even the five major ninja villages can't help it, which is simply terrifying.

The good news is.

The Uchiha has attracted the attention of the entire ninja world with the power of his clan, and in comparison, no one cares about Konoha's government-in-exile anymore.

After a moment of contemplation.

"Remember, don't tell the daimyo about these things, or he'll be stupid again, and he will go to the Uchiha clan to help him restore his country."

Ape Fei Ri slash said to Jiraiya.

"Don't worry, I've already explained it to them."

Jiraiya nodded.

We need to speed things up.

Sarutobi realizes that the situation in the ninja world is constantly changing and surging all the time, and if you don't have enough strength, you can only be a spectator.

In order not to miss the opportunity, in order to save Konoha, he could only take the liberty of disturbing the dead and use the power of his ancestors.

Come to think of it.

"I'm sorry for you next."

Sarutobi Hizashi looked at Jiraiya with a serious face, took out a prepared list, and handed it to the latter.

Jiraiya took a look and was shocked.

The names on it include the first Hokage, the second Hokage, the fourth Hokage, Uzumaki Kushina, and Hachiki Sakumo......

Basically, it includes the strong people with names and surnames in the history of Konoha.

I also know that the premise of reincarnation in the dirty earth is to extract a certain amount of the deceased's body first. In the current situation, to put it simply, it is-

Grave.

This kind of behavior that lacks great virtue is difficult to accept with Jiraiya's character, but for the sake of Konoha, he has to do it.

"As long as we can resurrect the people on this list, with their help, we will definitely be able to defeat the four major ninja villages, oust Danzo from power, and retake Konoha."

Ape Fei Ri took a deep breath, his eyes burning.

Those who are dormant under the undercurrent of the ninja world are not only ape flying and others.

The land of birds.

Somewhere in the calm woods, a sudden burst of birds arose.

Crash.

The raging water rises from the ground, and soon a huge lake is formed.

Water escape, water explosion.

Carrying the muscles of the big sword, the dried persimmon ghost shark stood at the top of the current, looking down at the enemy below.

It was a middle-aged man with a rough appearance, dressed in purple clothes and cuirass, with a ponytail and a big beard, and looked very individual.

He is the four-tailed man of Yanyin Village, Zhu Li, Lao Zi.

Due to the disagreement with the personality of Tsuchikage Onoki, Lao Zi ran away from the village of Iwain earlier and became a wandering monk.

He was once targeted by Xiao and pursued by Loquat Shizang, but successfully completed the counter-killing, causing the latter to die in Huangquan.

"Here we go on again, you guys are really endless."

Lao Zi frowned, said impatiently, and glanced at the edge of the woods not far away, and found that there were two more people watching the play.

It is Obito and Kakuto.

Let's kill this guy in front of you first.

Lao Zi retracted his gaze, his eyes froze, and even if he made a seal.

Snort.

In an instant, a red tail grew behind him, and his entire body was wrapped in a layer of high-temperature lava, turning on the Molten Chakra Mode.

Then, as soon as he stepped on the water, he shot up like a cannonball, shooting towards the ghost shark.

"Interesting."

The ghost shark grinned, picked up the shark muscle and stepped down the water, slashing at Lao Zi fiercely.

Bang.

After a great battle, the magma collided with the current, forming steam that rose into the sky.

Wait until the moisture dissipates.

Bang.

Lao Zi, who lost his combat effectiveness, was thrown in front of Obito.

"This guy is very strong, it's really not easy to catch him alive." The ghost shark said as he retracted his shark muscles.

Lao Zi raised his head with difficulty, looked at Obito's face, and said slowly:

"I know you, you're that Uchiha Obito ......"

Obito's information has long been made public by the Uchiha clan and printed as a leaflet to the entire ninja world.

"Then you should also know that the Uchiha's kaleidoscope writing wheel eye can easily manipulate the tailed beast."

Obito said a sentence expressionlessly, and as soon as the words fell, a scarlet kaleidoscope appeared in his eyes.

Lao Zi's gaze suddenly became dull, and he was controlled by Obito with illusion.

What happened recently in the ninja world, Obito has also heard about it.

The group of crazy people in Uchiha actually transplanted the intercolumn cells in all of them, made four pairs of kaleidoscopes, controlled the three pillar forces, and the help of Ah Fei's two or five boys.

Beat the ninja alliance to the ground.

The most terrifying thing is that the Uchiha has not yet made a move.

Obito couldn't help but become more and more anxious, and he had a huge sense of crisis.

Therefore, after he ordered Jue to find out the whereabouts of the four-tailed human pillar force, he took the first step and controlled Lao Zi in his hands.

lest sooner or later he be robbed by the Uchiha again.

……

Who is the Uchiha's next target? Iwakuin, Yunyin, or Konoha native?

This is a question that the whole ninja world is concerned about.

With the experience of Shayin, the major ninja villages returned to the local defense as soon as possible, hoarded heavy troops, and laid down layers of defense lines.

Everyone tensed their nerves, waiting for the Uchiha's next move.

But surprisingly, after a period of time, the ninja world was calm and nothing happened.

The reason is actually quite simple.

The Uchiha clan is also human, and they can also feel tired.

During this time, the Uchiha first left Paradise Island and attacked the base camp of the coalition forces, and then marched long distances to attack the sand in the night.

Thousands of kilometers of travel, continuous high-intensity battles, even if all the Uchiha members transplanted the intercolumnar cells, they were flesh and blood after all, and gradually reached the limit of physical strength.

Moreover, knowing that the major ninja villages have already deployed heavy troops, waiting for the Uchiha clan to throw themselves into the net, it is obviously a very unwise act to forcibly launch an attack.

So.

As the patriarch of the Uchiha, Fugaku decided to find a place to take a break for a while.

Eventually, the Uchiha clan returned to the territory of Kawanokuni, where they camped in a deep mountain forest far away from the people.

Even if the enemy realizes Uchiha's intentions and sends troops to encircle and suppress it again, he will not be able to find this place for a while.

After the Uchiha recuperated and restored his physical strength to his peak state, the next action will inevitably be a thunderous blow to the enemy.

Inside the camp.

Swish.

With a swirling fluctuation in the space, the break that had been sitting in the Kamui space finally returned to the ninja world.

"Uncle."

Itachi shouted, stepped forward, and reported Uchiha's actions during this time to the end of the day.

"Hmm."

He listened and nodded from time to time, his expression always calm.

To the surprise of the weasel, after listening to it, he suddenly asked:

"You say, in the territory of the country of Sichuan, you have encountered a caravan that calls itself a wandering people?"

"Uh, yes."

Itachi was stunned for a moment and replied. He didn't expect that his uncle would be most concerned about this inconspicuous little thing.

"What's the name of their leader?" Interrupted and asked.

"It's an old man named He Yan, and he also has a pet ferret. Uncle, you ...... Do you know each other? ”

After answering truthfully, Itachi asked curiously.

Broken shook his head and said lightly:

"I've just heard some legends about the wandering people."

As a matter of fact.

Through Itachi's description, the origin of the caravan was already known.

About hundreds of years ago, in the forests of Kawanokuni, an ancient empire was born, much more powerful than the five great powers of today.

And the secret of the empire's prosperity is hidden in a stone called Greer.

The Stone of Grell is a crystalline vein buried deep underground, discovered by the founder of the Empire.

It is said that it contains a huge amount of life energy, which can not only quickly ripen crops and bring a good harvest, but also can heal all kinds of diseases, make the body strong, live a long life, and even have the effect of reviving the dead.

As a result, it became the cornerstone of the empire's glory.

However, there are pros and cons to everything.

While people enjoy the benefits of the Greer Stone, they ignore the fact that the powerful energy it contains can also cause great damage.

Later, due to a single misuse, a catastrophe of scale space swept through the empire.

Overnight, the empire was destroyed.

It's like a dream.

As a time-traveler who is familiar with the plot, he naturally knows that the so-called Greer's Stone is actually an underground mineral vein formed after absorbing a large amount of natural energy.

It just so happened that he had been groping for immortal art recently.

If this kind of stone really exists, then it should be very helpful for the break.

Thinking of this, he instructed his nephew:

"Keep an eye on it, if you encounter that caravan again, or hear from them, remember to let me know as soon as possible."

"yes, I see."

Itachi nodded solemnly.

Although he was curious about why his uncle was interested in the caravan, he didn't ask much, and just took the broken order to heart.

Meanwhile.

Since separating from the Uchiha clan, the Wandering People caravan has been in danger along the way, and finally arrived at Konoha Village without any problems.

As a result, as soon as he entered the village, He Yan heard the news of the destruction of Shayin Village, and was immediately startled.

He originally thought that the Uchiha was going to flee to the depths of the desert in the Land of the Wind to escape the encirclement and suppression of the ninja alliance, but he didn't expect that the people would directly destroy the Sand Hidden Village.

He was still praying for the Uchiha clan, but now he found out that those guys were a group of out-and-out killing gods.

After realizing this, He Yan gathered the caravan again and told them privately-

Don't tell the story of the caravan's encounter with the Uchiha clan, or you'll get into trouble.

The next few days.

The caravan rested in Konoha and bought a large amount of goods to be transported back to the Land of the Wind to sell and earn the difference.

At the same time, considering the dangers that might be encountered on the way, the caravan spent a lot of money and hired new guards from Konoha.

Everything is ready.

However, despite He Yan's extreme caution, trouble came the night before departure.

And it's big trouble.

Bang dang.

Several ninjas wearing armor and animal masks broke into Kahiko's room and surrounded him.

He Yan's face changed, and he recognized these people as Konoha Dark, and his heart suddenly went up and down, and he was extremely worried.

"Come with us."

A dark man spoke coldly, his tone was tough, and he didn't allow He Yan to make any refusal.

"Okay."

He Yan took a deep breath and pretended to be calm in response.

Ten minutes later.

Under the guidance of the dark department, or escort, He Yan walked into the Hokage building, came to the Hokage's office, and saw an old man on crutches.

"Meet Hokage-sama."

He Yan hurriedly bowed, not daring to look directly into the other party's eyes.

"Be honest, don't wait for me to ask you."

Tuan Zang said lightly, with a majesty in his calm voice.

When He Yan heard this, he was shocked and slowly raised his head.

He only hesitated for less than a second, then he reneged on his promise to the Uchiha clan and told the truth about the caravan's encounter with the Uchiha.

For a businessman like He Yan, the oath is a toothache spell, and flexibility is his way to survive.

Although he felt a slight sense of guilt in his heart, He Yan told himself that even if Konoha learned about the Uchiha's information, there was a high probability that he would not be able to do anything.

"Oh?"

Faced with He Yan's confession, Tuan Zang looked a little surprised, but then shook his head, "I'm not talking about this matter. ”

He Yan was stunned for a moment, and said with a puzzled expression: "Then I don't know, what do you want to ask." ”

"The Stone of Greel."

Tuan Zang only said five words, and then He Yan's face changed and he took two steps back.

Then.

A drunk man is brought into the office by two shadows. He Yan recognized the other party as someone from the caravan at a glance, and his heart sank suddenly, and he finished shouting.

Sure enough, a dark man looked at He Yan and said:

"This guy drank too much in the izakaya, and told others that he was a remnant of the empire, as long as he found the stone of Grell left by his ancestors, he could master invincible power and even dominate the ninja world."

Another dark person picked up kunai and put it directly on He Yan's neck, with a cold light flashing in his eyes:

"Tell Hokage-sama everything about the Stone of Greel. If you don't say it, we can still torture you, and then kill everyone in the caravan. ”

In the face of the threat, He Yan showed a helpless smile.

He didn't have a choice.

In order to survive, he had no choice but to tell everything and assure Danzou that the Grell Stone was real.

Tuan Zang's eyes lit up, and he ordered the dark department on the spot:

"Send someone with them to the border of the country of Sichuan, find the relics of the ancient empire, and retrieve the Stone of Grell for the old man!"
