Konoha: I, Uchiha, just want to die.

Chapter 479 Stage
When the last ray of dusk light fades from the sky,
A continuous cry of killing was heard above the sea!
In the uncertain night, nearly ten thousand Kirigakure troops surged like a black tide and launched a general attack on Green Reef from the south bank and the front at the same time!

However, on the rebel side of Green Reef, only two figures walked out.

The two men were wearing gray-black cloaks with sky-blue patterns on the edges, and gray vests under the cloaks. One of them carried a large door-like sword Samehada on his back, and held a double sword Hirahi in his hands. His left eye was closed, and his right eye was open.
The other person opened a pair of blood-red horizontal pupils with strange patterns.

These are none other than Mangetsu Kizuki and Enmu Miyashiro.

"There is indeed a strange-looking guy about 4 kilometers to your right. He is hiding under a reef on the coast."

"I'll take the lead and you block its retreat. Let's end this quickly!"

"understand!"

The two men exchanged a brief exchange, then swooped down towards the front battlefield with a very clear goal.

The White Zetsu army, who used the art of disguise to transform themselves into the image of Kirigakure ninjas, were unable to stop the two men at all.

Soon, after a loud roar,
A pool of waves tens of meters high appeared on the sea surface at the front battlefield, and a pale figure suddenly jumped out from it!

Gui Deng Man Yue and the other person quickly followed and chased after them!

As this side began to take action, the Kirigakure army that was besieging Midori Reef became agitated.
"Water Release: Kirigakure Jutsu!"

On the other side, a huge white fog that could affect the vision of the Samsara Eye rose immediately from the sea level!

As the core of the decapitation operation, Mei Terumi and the other two quickly rushed towards the center of the White Zetsu army under the cover of white fog.

But
As soon as they rushed to the south bank, they heard the long-awaited sneer and -

"Wooden Release: Wooden Man's Technique!"

A huge wooden man with seven heads rose from the center of the battlefield!

#
High in the sky, as we approached the Land of Water,
Uchiha Ci was able to 'see' more and more things.

He saw the White Zetsu army that appeared several versions earlier.
I saw the thrilling battle between Kakashi's three members and Karatachi Yagura.

I saw Mangetsu Hozuki and En Miyajiro chasing after White Zetsu's real body.

We also saw the scene where Mei Terumi and the other two were fighting the Third Mizukage and the remaining 'Five Ninja Swordsmen' around him.

Mei Terumi, Kakuzu, and Sasori faced off against the Third Mizukage, who was possessed by Uzumaki White Zetsu and could perform Wood Release, Ice Release, and five types of Release Techniques.
Contrary to Uchiha Ci's expectations, the three of them were able to fight back and forth with the Third Mizukage.

Not only was the Third Mizukage influenced by him and strengthened by Uchiha Madara, but at a time when Uchiha Ci had never perceived it, Mei Terumi and Sasori had also grown in their own ways because of Uchiha Ci before.

The scenes before him made him feel dazed, as if the original world at this moment and the world in front of him that was changed by his influence had undergone some illogical but forced distortion.

Uchiha Ci had heard of a theory called [World Line Convergence].

It is about that when multiple world lines converge together, they will form a "divergence of the world" that is larger than the world line, which is the world line convergence range. The world line convergence is always in a "range" state, and all world lines contained in this range will eventually converge to the same result.

Even if you want to change the predetermined result within the scope of convergence, the world will use various means to prevent it from happening. As long as you converge to the same result, it doesn't matter what the process is.

This is what is called inevitable 'fate'.

in a certain sense,
Uchiha Ci disturbed the world line of the original time and space through his reckless adventures, but in essence, there was only one major event that was truly disturbed by Uchiha Ci -

That is,
[The Third Ninja World War].

The sub-branches that appeared in the Third Ninja World War were:
[Battle of the Green Reef Rock Mist] (the introduction to the coup in the blood mist), [the farewell battle of the Third Raikage],

Battle of Kannabi Bridge

[The Battle of the First Generation of Akatsuki in the Land of Rain] and a series of battles.

From his departure from the Land of Hot Springs, he indirectly influenced the [Battle of Midoridae Rock Mist], to his personal participation in the [Final Battle of the Third Raikage], thus ending the Third Ninja World War ahead of schedule.

In addition, Uchiha Ci himself had just participated, which caused Nagato to trigger the [Battle of the First Akatsuki in the Land of Rain], which had a predetermined outcome of summoning the Outer Path Demon Statue.

Immediately afterwards, the [Battle of Kammubi Bridge] and the subsequent [Coup in the Blood Mist] that had been resolved continued to the present in another way and appeared before our eyes in another way.

now,

The inertia of the original work, or in other words, when the world line converges, collides violently with the storm caused by Uchiha Ci flapping his wings four months ago!
Every battlefield was plunged into anxious and fierce fighting.

On every battlefield, it seems that each side is only a hair's breadth away from overwhelming the other.
Every battlefield seems to be calling for Uchiha Ci!

If only he could come!
If only he could show up!
If only he could come in an inspiring manner!
As long as he tries harder and makes the world undergo a major change beyond the scope of the world line convergence,
This world will be able to stop the present and future tragedies at the source!
The so-called "fate" can be changed.
This world can move towards another future that Uchiha Ci expects, and can come to the other β world line that Uchiha Ci desires!

but,
Just when Uchiha Ci wanted to lend them a helping hand——

Directly below him, on an unnamed island on the sea, a powerful chakra fluctuation suddenly appeared that made him look sideways.

Reflecting the half-moon that just rose above the sea,

The mottled water and the wrinkled reflections of the coconut trees,

On a deserted island, beside the beach, an old man dressed in blue spruce, using the Grim Reaper's scythe as a walking stick, with dry white hair and closed eyes, slowly walked out from the ground.

He took two weak breaths, slowed down his breathing which was a little disordered due to old age, leaned his stiff old body against a reef, and slowly sat down.

then,

He raised his head, showing a kind smile as if he had met someone after a long separation, and smiled at Uchiha Ci who was slowly falling from the air and said,

"Uchiha Ci——"

"You finally came."

Uchiha Ci stopped and landed on the beach, his eyes gradually becoming colder.

then,

He walked towards the reef, and towards the weak and exhausted old man sitting on the reef.

Clearly, there is only a desolate, dilapidated and remote island in front of us.
A very ordinary stone on the seashore.
But when the old man in front of me sat there,
Uchiha Ci felt that

The old man was sitting on the biggest stage in the world, watching him quietly and waiting for him.
And he,

Heading towards this stage!
"Ah yes, here I come!"

"Uchiha Madara!"
