The sea sparkled under the moonlight, it was a beautiful night. Atop the mast of the Moby Dick, Itachi sat alone, holding a bottle of rum in his hand. Having spent many days in this world, he had grown increasingly fond of the sailors' drink here.
When one's will was numbed by alcohol, the torment inside always seemed to lessen a bit.

Without sparing a thought for anything else, the Third Raikage immediately entered Lightning Release Chakra Mode and shot out through the window, rushing at full speed toward the source of the Eight-Tails' chakra rampage. However, by the time he arrived, the Eight-Tails had already completely broken free from its seal. Its massive body rolled ca...

After leaving the Raikage's office, A finally let out a sigh of relief. But in the very next moment, a surge of intense resentment and anger welled up in his heart.
Some things didn't hit you immediately, but the more you thought about them afterward, the more infuriating they became.
Shin… Tsunade… don't think this matter is...

On the road from Konoha to Yu, a long convoy of carriages belonging to nobles from the northern countries stretched out like a snake. These nobles, both great and small, hailed from the Lands of Rice Fields, Hot Water, Frost, and Lightning.

"But…" Shukaku tried to persuade further, seeing its suggestion had been rejected.
"No buts." Its words were forcibly interrupted by Ryouma. "Besides, if you get completely sealed, you won't be able to eat your favorite dried fish anymore, right?"

Just as previously mentioned, after Obito put on the mask, he could comfortably separate his identity.
The hero Obito had already died beneath the rocks. The one who inherited his will was another hero, Kakashi.
The one who survived was Madara. It was Madara who killed the Fourth Hokage and his wife, and it was Madara who slaughtered...

Black Zetsu found Obito and conveyed Nagato's conditions. He also mentioned that, judging from Nagato and Konan's reactions, it didn't seem like they were the ones who leaked information. Perhaps Tobirama left behind some kind of unknown reconnaissance-type jutsu before he died, and now Konoha has perfected it.
This was his speculation and...

When Masashi withdrew his hand, Obito's body slumped, his entire figure seemingly shriveled. Everything about Obito had come to an end. And this manner of death was not actually painful.

Hiruzen woke up to find that the sky had fallen. The Uchiha clan had produced yet another pair of Mangekyō Sharingan. If he had known, he would never have let the Uchiha onto the battlefield.
