258, eight years later
On the day of his wedding to Samui.
Konoha Village is bustling with activity, and the villagers celebrate the event and enjoy the holiday to the fullest, and everyone seems to be happy.
The only exception is the group collection.
"Tsk, what a poor fellow."
In a small alley where no one is around, he leans against the wall and looks at Tuan Zang, who is sleeping on the ground. The latter was ragged and dirty, like a deranged madman.
Oh, you can't say it's like, it's clearly it.
Who would have thought that the once beautiful Five Generations Hokage would one day fall into such a situation, which is really embarrassing.
Tuan Zang is the enemy of the pocket.
This old guy used the most important woman in Dou's life, Yakushi Ye Naiyu, as a coercion to force Dou to join the roots, collect intelligence everywhere as a spy, and work for him.
But later, Tuan Zang deliberately arranged for Dou and Ye Naiyu to kill each other, and after Dou accidentally killed Ye Naiyu, he also sent Orochimaru to destroy Dou's mouth.
Dou has long wanted to avenge Ye Naiyu with his own hands, even if he let Tuan Zang die ten times, it will be difficult to vent the hatred in his heart.
But.
After seeing what the Uchiha did to Danzo, Dou gave up his plans for revenge.
Because he very much approved of the actions of the sixth Hokage-sama.
Tuan Zang is a person like this, killing him is just cheapening him, only let him live and be tortured like this, suffer all the sins of the world, and then die in extreme misery.
That's what makes people happy.
Therefore, every once in a while, Dou will appear near Tuanzang to admire the latter's crazy appearance, so that his heart can be satisfied and happy.
After a while.
Dou felt a little bored, so he yawned and turned away.
However, as soon as he walked a few steps, Tuanzang's voice came from behind him:
"Who are you, what are you doing sneakily here, and you don't kneel when you see this Hokage?"
Looking back, he found that it was Tuan Zang who had woken up and was looking at him sternly.
"I've seen Hokage-sama." He said with a smile, his tone full of mockery and banter.
But Tuan Zang didn't hear it at all, but instead looked very useful, showing a satisfied look.
Then, he frowned again and asked Xiang Dou:
"What's going on outside, why is it so noisy, the old man works hard for Konoha day and night, can't he even sleep peacefully?"
"It's the wedding of the six Hokage." Dou looked at Tuan Zang and answered truthfully.
Tuan Zang was stunned for a moment, his brows furrowed even tighter, and then he angrily scolded Dou: "You are talking nonsense! The Hokage of Konoha has always been an old man, and where is a new Hokage popping up, what is his name? ”
"Uchiha broken." Dou said.
"Uchiha... Break? ”
Danzo read the name, a confused look appeared on his face, and muttered, "He's the Hokage, so who am I, and who is the old man...... Yes! ”
He clutched his head in pain and let out a low, beastly growl.
This guy's mental condition is getting worse and worse, and he is completely hopeless.
Seeing this, Dou shook his head.
Tuan Zao has lived in the upper echelons of Konoha for decades and has mastered countless secrets, and even Lord Orochimaru has worked under Danzo as a guard.
Although Danzou is Dou's enemy, if Orochimaru-sama orders him to secretly send Danzou out of Konoha to help him return to normal, and then fight against Konoha and the Uchiha clan together.
Dou will still do as he is told.
But now it seems that it is impossible for Tuan Zang to become a normal person.
Thinking of this, Dou ignored Tuan Zang and strode towards the alley.
"Don't go!"
Tuan Zang climbed in a row, rushed up and grabbed his pocket, and yelled at the latter, "Tell the old man, who I am and who I am!" ”
"Let go of me."
Dou said coldly, expressionless.
However, the crazy Tuanzang couldn't understand Dou's words at all, and just yelled at Dou vigorously, and even had to move his hands and feet.
"Enough!"
Dou finally couldn't bear it anymore.
The next second.
Poof.
A kunai was thrust into Danzo's chest, and his back was sticking out, stained with blood.
In the small alley, it was silent in an instant, only the sound of ticking remained, and the blood of bitterness continued to drip to the ground.
"Old man... Remember, I'm Shimura Danzo... Konoha's fifth Hokage, the Uchiha broken... It's what made me like this. ”
Tuan Zang muttered, and at the last moment before he died, a pair of cloudy eyes finally regained their clarity and remembered everything.
He was cut off by the Uchiha.
Played thoroughly.
He lost everything, fame, power, and even human dignity, and became a laughing stock in the eyes of everyone, a clown who was visited.
Thinking of this, all kinds of emotions such as unwillingness, hatred, pain, and anger appeared on Tuan Zang's face, but in the end, they all turned into a bitter self-deprecating smile.
Subsequently.
He glanced down at the kunai stuck in his chest, then looked up at the bespectacled young man in front of him, and asked:
"Did the Uchiha send you to kill me? No, you, you're ...... Pouch? ”
"Remember me, Danzo. This is for Lord Nonoyu, when you go to hell, you will repent well. ”
Dou sneered and jerked back the kunai.
Tuan Zang suddenly fell backwards on his back, slammed straight on the ground, convulsed a few times, and then stopped moving.
Blood, flowing from Tuanzang's body, gradually stained the ground beneath him.
He died like a wild dog in this cramped and dilapidated alley, and his eyes opened wide before he died, reflecting the clear blue sky above the alley.
Danzo thought the sky was within reach, only to find out later that everything was just his illusion.
It turned out that he had been trapped in this alley all along.
"Teacher Ye Naiyu, I have avenged you."
Dou glanced at the corpse on the ground, then looked up at the sky and muttered.
……
Time passes.
The black flying rabbit goes, and spring goes to autumn.
One day, one month, one year.
In the second year of Uchiha's return to Konoha, something happened to the ninja world.
The cause is a territorial dispute over the border.
After the defeat of the Land of Rain, the land was originally divided between Earth and Wind, and the Rain Ninja Village was also taken over by both Sand and Iwakure.
But after a long time, the stronger Yanyin Village gradually became dissatisfied, and wanted to use various means to encroach on Yuyin Village step by step and take away the control of Shayin.
Sand is naturally not dry.
Soon a conflict broke out between the two sides, killing a number of ninjas, and sparking a local war.
The two countries behind the two ninja villages were also involved, and they fought in the realm of the Land of Rain, causing misery.
At the beginning of the war, the two ninja villages were still relatively restrained, because they were both worried that if things got bigger, the Konoha and Uchiha clans might take advantage of the situation.
Unexpectedly, Konoha completely adhered to the attitude of permanent neutrality, and did not say a word from beginning to end, as if he didn't see it.
In the end, the two sides let go of their hands and feet, and it ended in Iwakure's victory.
Shortly after that.
Cloud Shadow Village followed suit, sending out to occupy some of the islands of the Water Country and control several important sea routes.
Kirihide immediately protested and condemned, and under the call of the five generations of Mizukage, he organized troops to launch a counterattack.
Since then, the entire ninja world has never stopped.
As Kakashi speculated, the great powers fought back and forth over territorial and other conflicting interests, and peace could never be achieved.
And Konoha has become a paradise-like existence.
With good public security, prosperous economy and advanced science and technology, it is the yearning of countless people and the second hometown of the spirit.
Rich and powerful people from all over the country have sent their families and children to Konoha to live, study and enjoy themselves there, and even get Konoha status and settle down permanently.
The talents and money of the entire ninja world have been flowing to Konoha in a steady stream, and Konoha has developed better because of this, which has further attracted more talents and funds.
This process, like a snowball, made Konoha develop like a rocket.
……
Unconsciously.
Eight years have passed in a flash.
In the blink of an eye, a spring breeze blew across the land of the ninja world, and it was the 64th year of Konoha.
Today is a cloudy day.
Viewed from mid-air, the Konoha Inner Ring is the former old town, home to important buildings such as the castle tower, the ninja school, the Konoha First Hospital, the Dark Department Building, and the Police Department Headquarters.
The outer ring is a new town, full of modern skyscrapers, trams speeding on the tracks, and even an airport has been built, with airships flying through the air from time to time.
The streets are densely packed with pedestrians like ants, and the population of Konoha has increased tenfold in the past decade.
From a hundred thousand people, to nearly three million.
Today, Konoha is no longer the small village it used to be, but has become a metropolis with an extremely prosperous economy and culture.
But.
Behind such prosperity, there are also some hidden dangers.
The spies of the major ninja villages, as well as the former enemies of the Uchiha clan, are hiding in the shadows and watching.
They have been dormant for eight years, and they are becoming more and more unbearable, and they have recently begun to move.
Konoha suburbs.
It is a vast forest that has been designated as a natural forest no-logging zone by the Konoha Forestry Department, and is protected by strict laws.
The trees in this nature reserve are all towering trees with a lifespan of hundreds or even hundreds of years, and you can't see the sun when you walk in them.
At this time.
Deep in the forest, inside a large tree dozens of meters high that several people hug.
Two voices, a woman and a man, sounded one after another.
"What are you going to do?"
"Before I do it, I want to go back and see. I heard that the Uchiha broke off a gimmick of permanent neutrality, harvested talents and resources from the entire ninja world, and sucked the blood of the major ninja villages, but chose to be indifferent to the wars that continued to break out in various parts of the ninja world.
This kind of peace is only the peace of Konoha, not the peace of the entire ninja world. ”
When the woman heard this, she was silent for a while, and then asked:
"Do you want to contact Xianglian, and let her act with you when the time comes."
The man shook his head:
"No need.
Xiang Rin has been undercover in Konoha for so many years, and it is not easy to become a disciple of Tsunade and win the trust of the latter. If people see her with me and arouse the suspicion of Konoha's people, then her efforts are not in vain.
I'll just go alone, and I'll just walk around this time anyway. ”
The woman nodded:
"I see, the sacrifice is ready for you, let's get started."
These two people are none other than Konan and Naruto of the Akatsuki organization.
After saying that, Naruto looked to the side, where there was a Konoha shinobi tied up, staring at the two of them with a frown.
"Who are you and what are your intentions towards Konoha? I warn you, let me go at once! ”
The name shouted loudly, but he looked a little nervous.
"You don't need to know who I am, because you're going to be dead soon."
Naruto said lightly, then raised his hand to seal.
"You, what have you done to me... Yes! ”
The man's expression was frightened, and he let out a scream, and his whole appearance changed, and finally he became another Naruto.
The Art of Elephant Turning.
This is one of the abilities of the eye of reincarnation.
It can project the caster's pupil power onto a living human sacrifice, creating an elaborate "homogeneity" equivalent to Naruto's doppelganger.
It's different from ordinary shadow clones.
The sacrifice that was performed on the Elephant Transformation Technique is a flesh-and-blood existence that is 100% identical to Naruto's appearance.
Moreover, the elephant turn doppelganger can not only inherit Naruto's ninjutsu and abilities, but even the weapons and ninja tools used by Naruto can be restored, which is a doppelganger technique without any flaws.
Its only weakness.
When the chakra of the living sacrifice is exhausted, the spell will be automatically dissolved, and the sacrifice will die on the spot.
"This sacrifice... Barely enough, I can withstand thirty percent of my chakra. As long as the opponent is not Uchiha, there should be no problem with whoever you fight. ”
Naruto's elephant turned and spoke, his voice identical to his own.
In the last eight years or so.
After an unimaginable amount of hard cultivation, he has fully adapted to the power of the eye of reincarnation, and he is even more powerful than Nagato back then.
After all, Nagato was disabled in both legs in his early years, and he could only sit in a wheelchair for a long time and fight through Payne Rokudo. Over time, the body will inevitably deteriorate.
And Naruto, not only combined the power of Payne's six realms into one and achieved a thorough understanding, but also trained a strong physique, and did not be dragged down by the eye of reincarnation.
He even reached a consensus with the Nine-Tails in his body and became a perfect human pillar force.
In Xiao Nan's words.
The current Naruto is the strongest ninja of all time, even surpassing the ninja god Senju Tsuruma and Madara Uchiha back then.
And, of course, breaks.
Naruto's elephant clone quickly walked out of the tree and headed for Konoha.
His body sat down and closed his eyes.
Another advantage of the Elephant Transformation Technique over the Shadow Clone is that it can be manipulated from a very long distance through the will of the caster's body.
This means that Naruto's main body does not need to be on the battlefield to command the doppelganger's actions and battles, and it can be said that there is no risk.
Swish.
Konan made a seal, and the tree closed again, protecting her and Naruto.
She silently accompanied Naruto on the side, looking at his face and falling into a state of thought.
It's been nine years.
Nine years ago, she and Nagato came to Konoha and it was such a familiar scene. In the end, Nagato entrusts Samsara Eye to her along with Naruto, and he himself is unfortunately killed by the Uchiha.
Merely.
This time, Xiao Nan made up his mind that he would never let that happen again.
She has to protect Naruto no matter what, even if it is to give her life, to help him fulfill Akatsuki's ideal, which is also the ideal of Yahiko and Nagato-
Let the ninja world achieve fairness and justice, and usher in true peace.
