At Kushina's strong insistence, Minato dove headfirst into the practice of the Rasengan.
As for the governance of the Hidden Leaf Village, it was temporarily taken over by Danzo.
This led to Hiruzen Sarutobi and the two advisor elders visiting the Hokage's office several times, only to be met with the old man Danzo.
...
Due to the appearance of Danzo, the plot of this world has deviated somewhat from the original story.
Originally, Minato should have experienced the power of the Tailed Beasts during his battles with the Four-Tails and Five-Tails.
Then, after witnessing Kushina's rampage, he would have finally developed the 【Rasengan】 b...
Far away, Danzo had no idea that a "Anti-Danzo Alliance" had been formed specifically to deal with him.
If he had known, he might have kindly suggested they rename it the "Avengers Alliance."
Unfortunately, his attention was not on Kirigakure at the moment, as he had just received some shocking news.
"What? Kushina...
"Anti... Danzo Alliance?"
Yagura was momentarily stunned, clearly not expecting the mysterious masked man before him to propose such an idea.
"Exactly!!"
Uchiha Obito's eyes flashed with a hint of killing intent as he spoke in a persuasive tone:
"We must unite all those who have been oppressed and bullied by ...
"Am I to be in charge of the embassy affairs...?"
Shisui wasn't particularly surprised by the task Danzo had assigned to him.
After all, he had known about this plan from Danzo's mouth for quite some time and had prepared himself.
Although the embassy was just an office dispatched by Konoha to be stationed within ano...
"The Hidden Leaf Village will provide a loan to the Hidden Rain Village, with a total value of two hundred million ryo, to be used for the repair and development of the village."
It had been less than ten days since the Battle of the Hidden Rain Village, and this news once again thrust it into the spotlight.
What is the rel...
Seeing Deva Pain regain his vitality, Danzo couldn't help but marvel inwardly:
The Rinnegan is truly a BUG!
To be honest, Deva alone isn't actually that invincible.
After all, there is a cooldown period of several seconds when he uses Shinra Tensei.
Especially when using the large-scale Shinra Tensei, the cool...
In the desolate Kamui space, Uchiha Obito's gloomy voice echoed.
"Has that damn Danzo reached such a level of mastery in Wind Release?"
He looked at the torn sleeve of his right arm, which had a fine gash, clearly the result of some kind of slashing attack.
Though it hadn't inflicted any significant harm on Obito, it...
It must be said that although Hanzo, the old man, had fallen from grace, when he got serious, even the Deva Path Pain, who was in the cooldown period of 【Shinra Tensei】, was no match for him!
After all, taijutsu had never been Nagato's strong suit. Therefore, in close combat with Hanzo, the Deva Path Pain, which he controlled,...
Watching Pain, who was easily destroying everything, getting closer and closer to him, Hanzo was truly panicked.
"Why isn't it that red-haired kid?"
He stared at the approaching figure, his face a mix of confusion and fear.
"No matter what, that's the power of the Sage of Six Paths, something no ordinary person can r...
"What?"
"The entire dispatched force has been annihilated?!"
In the central building of Amegakure, Hanzo, fully armed, let out a roar.
That was a full eight hundred Amegakure ninjas, almost half of the village's military strength.
Wiped out in one go?
"What about Amefuri? Didn't he swear to me that he c...
Late at Night
The Daimyo of the Land of Fire was just about to go to sleep when he heard a knock at the door.
He walked to the door and opened it.
Standing outside was Kazuma, one of his Twelve Guardian Ninja.
In the original story, Sarutobi Asuma had joined the Twelve Guardian Ninja, which led to them splitti...
"Sensei, I'm back."
Hanekawa opened the door and called out loudly, "And we have a guest."
Tsunade, who had been lying lifelessly on the sofa, immediately stood up and casually put on her coat.
Although she could be relaxed in front of Hanekawa, she paid a little more attention to her appearance when outsiders were p...
The next day arrived.
Konoha was bustling with activity.
On one hand, preparations were underway for the weekend’s victory celebration.
On another, compensation had to be distributed to the families of fallen shinobi, and rewards needed to be allocated to the surviving ones.
Additionally, the date and terms ...
Hokage’s Office.
Most of the ninjas had already gone home to rest, leaving only Tsunade, Orochimaru, Jiraiya, and Konoha’s senior officials like Mitokado Homura.
"Old man."
Tsunade took out a scroll and tossed it to Hiruzen Sarutobi.
Hiruzen caught the scroll and instinctively glanced at Orochimaru.
The civil war in the Land of Rain has begun.
The organization known as Akatsuki publicly listed all the atrocities committed by Hanzo over the years and, under the banner of liberating the Land of Rain, officially declared war on Amegakure!
This news spread throughout the ninja world via the Shinobi United News.
More...
After handing over all affairs to his subordinates, Hanzo once again immersed himself in indulgence.
As for the Akatsuki organization, he would deal with them later.
In a place unknown to him, a cold and disdainful voice echoed.
"It is precisely because of such beings that the ninja world has become so rotten!"
Unlike the original story, the timeline for the Akatsuki organization's counterattack on Amegakure has been significantly delayed.
Due to Danzo's influence, not only did Yahiko survive, but the other members of Akatsuki also remained alive.
As a result, this time it wasn't Nagato who ventured alone to take down Hanzo....
"You're saying that you sense the future of Konoha in the talents of these children?"
Danzo raised an eyebrow, looking somewhat surprised at the man standing before him, En Yashiro.
He had expected En Yashiro to stay, but he hadn't anticipated that it would be for this reason.
"Yes, Elder Danzo," En Yashiro replied r...
"I never expected the ninja world to undergo such significant changes..."
En Oyashiro and Kabuto sat in a park, with En Oyashiro holding a bound volume of the "Shinobi World United News" that he had just finished reading.
After going through the recent newspapers, this descendant of the Blood Pool clan finally gained a gene...
The blood moon in the sky erupted with astonishing brilliance, instantly flooding En Oyashiro's entire mental space.
Moments later, En Oyashiro was sitting on the ground, drenched in sweat.
A pair of crimson Blood Dragon Eyes couldn't help but shed blood, looking utterly terrifying.
In response, Danzo's expression re...
By noon.
In Spirit City, a courtyard that was once quiet and peaceful was becoming increasingly lively.
The seven-colored carnations cultivated by the Chrysanthemum Douluo were vibrant and colorful.
All sorts of exotic flowers and rare plants competed in fragrance and beauty.
Bibi Dong had already prepared the...
Hanekawa had a dream.
He felt as if he were resting his head on a massive piece of cloud.
The cloud was flawless, warm, and smooth, with a texture like congealed fat, and faint veins-like patterns could be seen within it.
In his daze, Hanekawa thought the cloud should be hemispherical.
He didn't know how much ...
"I'll go open the door."
Minato Namikaze got up and walked to the door.
As he opened it, he saw an ANBU ninja standing outside and immediately felt a sense of foreboding.
It seemed that the battlefield in the Land of Frost had reached a critical moment.
"Lord Minato."
The ANBU ninja handed him a scroll ...
"Sound the alarm! Gather everyone!"
As soon as Hyuga Hizashi arrived at the Konoha base camp, he immediately issued the order.
Soon, the piercing sound of the alarm echoed throughout the camp.
Ninjas poured out of their tents at top speed, assembling at the entrance.
"Hizashi, did something happen to Lady Tsun...
"Be careful, stand steady."
Tsunade leaned in and whispered softly into Hanekawa's ear.
Her breath brushed against him.
Hanekawa felt a slight itch in his ear.
"You arrived just in time."
Tsunade released Hanekawa and stepped forward, speaking expressionlessly.
"We encountered Kumogakure ninjas o...
"Can you truly guarantee the lives of my child and myself?"
En Oyashiro asked, struggling on the river of blood.
It wasn't that he was a coward; it was just that Shisui and Pakura's abilities had completely pinned him down!
In a direct confrontation, he simply wasn't a match for them!
If he wanted to survive, ...
Feeling the intense hostility emanating from En Oyashiro, Shisui thought that this guy seemed to have misunderstood something.
He wasn't here to continue suppressing the Blood Pool clan.
The long-standing grudges between the Blood Pool and the Uchiha clans, he had no intention of perpetuating them.
Thinking this, Shi...
The intense shockwave from the violent explosion not only shattered the blood river but also dispersed the fog nearby, creating a massive void amidst the pervasive blood mist.
The splattered blood pierced through the surrounding rocks and ground, leaving numerous small holes.
The consequences of such blood droplets hitting ...
After an in-depth discussion with Danzo, the newly appointed Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze, felt that this matter was worth pursuing.
Not only should it be pursued, but it should be done seriously and well.
Because this might be a crucial step in determining whether Konoha could break free from the financial constraints im...
