In Naruto, build the strongest Hidden Mist Village.

Chapter 1 Orochimaru, join Kirigakure!

At the end of the Third Shinobi World War, on the border of the Land of Fire.

A figure dressed in Konoha uniform moved swiftly and nimbly through the dense forest.

He stopped at the tip of the tree branch when he saw a ninja wearing a Mist-covered headband and presented a scroll with both hands.

"This is information from Lord Orochimaru."

As soon as he finished speaking, the Konoha ninja handed over the scroll and cautiously looked at the Kirigakure ninja.

He was young, with a handsome face, green eyes, long white hair, and a gentle and calm demeanor.

However, the Konoha ninja knew that it was all an illusion.

This Hidden Mist ninja is named Kaguya Naoki, currently the number one genius ninja in the Hidden Mist Village. Like most members of the Kaguya clan, he is bloodthirsty and insane.

I really don't know why Lord Orochimaru would make a deal with such a guy.

"Sigh." Naoki Kaguya's sigh immediately attracted the attention of the Konoha ninjas.

Naoki sighed regretfully when he noticed the gazes of the Konoha ninjas directed at him.

"Orochimaru sent you instead of a snake to deliver the information that could have been conveyed by a snake."

"Do you think I'm a good person?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Kaguya Naoki flicked his wrist, and the scroll disappeared into his sleeve. At the same time, a sharp, pure white bone was pulled out with lightning speed.

puff!

The white jade skeleton pierced straight into the brain of the Konoha ninja, spurting blood that scattered in all directions.

Seeing the astonished and unwilling eyes of the Konoha ninja, Kaguya Naoki apologized.

"I'm sorry, but this involves the Hyuga main family and the Byakugan, so this deal must not be known to anyone."

As the corpse slowly fell, Naoki Kaguya wiped the blood off the bones and reinserted them into the body.

Only then did he begin to recall the detailed information Orochimaru had given him about the Konoha camp.

The direction of attack, the escape route, and the distribution of ninjas were all clearly understood.

It must have been really tough for Orochimaru, going to such lengths for the Byakugan of the main branch of the family.

However, judging from Orochimaru's style of doing things, Kaguya Naoki, as an ally, still needs to be extremely careful, as being tricked would not be a good thing.

Shedding his languid demeanor, Kaguya Naoki transformed into a blur and sped towards the direction from which the Konoha ninja had come.

Flying ten kilometers in this direction leads to the vast, continuous military camp belonging to Konoha.

The military camp not only housed several powerful Jonin, but also elders of the Hyuga clan and Orochimaru, one of the Legendary Sannin.

No one believed that a reckless ninja squad would dare to collide with this behemoth.

The campfire was burning brightly, and the Konoha ninjas in the camp were enjoying a rare moment of leisure, but the atmosphere was broken by the gradually thickening fog.

Someone noticed something was wrong and immediately started cursing under their breath.

"Damn Mist-Hidden Bastard!"

Amid the curses, the well-trained Konoha ninjas immediately and in perfect unison moved closer together, centered around the Hyuga branch family.

The fog was thick, larger than any Konoha ninja had ever seen before, but they all wore ferocious expressions.

With the White Eyes present, no matter how thick the fog is, it won't have any effect!

No matter how many Mist Hidden bastards there are, they won't escape these eyes. Bastards who can't even do intelligence work deserve to die here.

The Hyuga branch family members formed hand seals, their veins bulging, and activated their Byakugan.

With eyes that can see through things, with superhuman vision, and with fluctuations in chakra, everything is clearly visible before these eyes.

However, as these eyes opened and they saw their surroundings, the members of the branch family instantly broke out in a cold sweat and cried out in horror.

"Right in front of the camp, there is a huge chakra figure, taller than a mountain!"

The words had barely left his mouth, and before the surrounding Konoha ninjas could react, the sound of surging water had already reached their ears.

A loud bang.

The outer walls of Konoha had been breached and collapsed by the raging water, which poured inwards!

Without the slightest hesitation, the well-trained Konoha ninja leaped onto the high ground.

However, in ninja battles, every second counts.

In that brief instant, the enormous chakra figure had already traveled with the water flow to the Konoha camp.

Countless pairs of kunai were thrown out, but before they could achieve anything, all that remained was a deafening roar!
That was an explosion!

The massive, terrifying explosion spread outwards with that enormous chakra figure, reducing countless buildings and ninjas to dust.

Run away!
That strange and unknown secret technique immediately filled the hearts of the Konoha ninja with fear!

They knew that only Orochimaru, one of the Three Legendary Sannin, could contend with such a powerful enemy!

Just then, a huge snake-shaped head suddenly appeared in the center of the battlefield, protecting the vast majority of the remaining ninjas behind it.

The Konoha ninjas immediately turned their fear into joy.

"It's Lord Orochimaru!"

"Lord Orochimaru will definitely kill that damned Hidden Mist Village!"

"not good!"

Several members of the Hyuga branch family who had survived the ordeal were shocked and exclaimed, "A chakra similar to that of a tailed beast has reached our central camp!"

"The main family is located there!"

With shouts, the Hyuga branch family members disregarded their companions and rushed towards the center as if their lives depended on it.

Seeing this, Orochimaru not only showed no intention of helping, but instead leisurely licked his parched lips, a hint of fanaticism in his eyes.

Naoki Kaguya, what a commotion!

Shikotsumyaku (Corpse Bone Pulse), Hozuki's Secret Technique, and Tailed Beast-level Chakra.

How many more surprises do you have that I don't know about?

He's truly excellent material; if we keep him...
Just then, screams echoed from the central camp, interrupting Orochimaru's deep thoughts.

Reflected in his serpentine pupils, a dark figure leaped out of the central camp and fled. Surprisingly, there wasn't a single Konoha ninja in its path. Orochimaru's lips curled into a smile, and his hoarse voice echoed throughout the camp.

"The guys from Kirigakure are strong. I'm going to pursue the Byakugan. You all stay put and be wary of outsiders!"

The Konoha ninjas, their eyes gleaming with excitement, obeyed the command and scattered to defend.

Only the Hyuga branch family was distraught, because the main family was dead, and even their bodies had completely disappeared.

They're finished.

Whoosh!
Orochimaru and that afterimage leaped out of the Konoha camp one after the other. Only the occasional explosions told the Konoha ninja that Lord Orochimaru was still fiercely fighting the Hidden Mist guy.

They prayed silently in their hearts.

"Lord Orochimaru, you must win!"

"Take back the white eye!"

Amidst the swirling dust, Orochimaru spoke coldly to the white-haired figure.

"Naoki-kun, you'd better roll your eyes at me. Transactions are all about trust!"

Naoki Kaguya turned her head and gave a cold laugh: "Orochimaru, I am a Hidden Mist ninja."

Do you think we're people who keep our word?

Orochimaru paused for a rare moment, his brows furrowed, he gripped his kunai tightly, and said in a hoarse voice, "Naoki-kun, we have a long time to cooperate in the future. Don't ruin your reputation because of one deal."

Naoki Kaguya stopped, turned around, and deliberately hid the object in his hand behind his back with one hand.

Then, looking at Orochimaru, he curled the corners of his mouth and said, "Lord Orochimaru, I will have new trading partners in the future, such as Lord Danzo."

Orochimaru stood on the tip of a tree branch, his eyes filled with disdain: "Naoki-kun, Danzo is a short-sighted fellow. He has no credibility whatsoever, and he is probably far inferior to all of you."

"But he's stupid enough, stupid enough compared to Lord Orochimaru."

Naoki Kaguya responded immediately, and after a brief pause, continued:
"Lord Orochimaru, I really need the combat power of these eyes right now, and I'm afraid I can't give them to you in the short term."

"Furthermore, the corpses of the Hyuga main family members were collected into Orochimaru's scroll. It's not within the scope of this deal for me to be blamed for such a thing."

"If you insist on continuing..."

Naoki Kaguya stopped speaking, casually pulling a pure white skeleton from his body and holding it horizontally in front of him.

"My bones haven't been infused with the blood of the Three Ninjas yet."

Seeing this, Orochimaru showed no fear whatsoever; instead, the fervent covetousness in his eyes intensified.

The Hozuki clan's explosive techniques, and the bloodline limit unique to the Kaguya family—this perfect work of art must be kept in one's hands.

Orochimaru suppressed his fanaticism, but his hands, hidden in his sleeves, began to slowly form hand seals.

He nodded slightly, seemingly agreeing with Naoki Kaguya's statement.

Then he chuckled twice more: "Naoki-kun, according to you, when will my eye roll finally arrive?"

Naoki Kaguya inserted the bone back into the hole in his clothes.

"Lord Orochimaru, I think there are two possibilities."

Orochimaru listened intently.

"After the war ended, Kirigakure exchanged a pair of Byakugan for a large amount of strategic materials. On the way back to the village, Konoha ninjas were attacked by the rogue ninja Orochimaru, and the Byakugan fell into Orochimaru's hands."

"Or perhaps another possibility is that after this war, Orochimaru, a rogue ninja from Konoha, secretly joined Kirigakure to obtain the Byakugan and other bloodline limits for research."

Naoki Kaguya paused for a moment, then shrugged: "I wonder which possibility Lord Orochimaru prefers?"

Orochimaru did not reply, his snake-shaped pupils deeply imprinting Kaguya Naoki's image in his eyes.

A hint of murderous intent flickered deep in his eyes.

His situation is indeed not good recently; the senile old man is unlikely to hand over the position of the Four Shadows to him.

His defection was not unfounded; he was conducting shady experiments and could be expelled from the village at any time by the righteous and upright old man.

However, apart from the higher-ups, how could the brats of the Hidden Mist know about my situation?
Is it Danzo?

Orochimaru silently lowered his opinion of Danzo even further.

"Lord Orochimaru, if you accept my suggestion, why not?"

Upon hearing this, Orochimaru immediately raised his eyes, making no attempt to conceal his coldness.

"Naoki-kun, stop talking nonsense. I want you more than these eyes!"

Before the words were even finished, a giant snake-shaped head shot towards Kaguya Naoki.

Orochimaru rapidly formed hand seals, gathering immense chakra into his mouth, about to release it, but upon seeing the scene before him, he slowly released his hands, his ferocious expression returning to his face.

Before his eyes, there was no trace of Kaguya Naoki; only a pile of white bones remained.

Orochimaru was now fully aware that he had been tricked.

From beginning to end, what he was tracking was just a clone.

How could I not even notice such a lifelike clone? That clone was practically a real person.

Orochimaru stuck out his tongue and licked the corner of his mouth. His surprise subsided, and he became even more excited.

Naoki Kaguya, what a perfect vessel!

at the same time.

Dozens of miles away, Kaguya Naoki, who was galloping, swayed his body and stopped only after all the memories of his clone had been integrated.

An excited light involuntarily appeared on his previously calm face.

I never imagined that the evolution of the Corpse Bone Vein would actually have such benefits.

Although creating a bone clone using one's own bones is time-consuming and laborious, it is indeed indistinguishable from a real person.

It actually managed to fool Orochimaru, the scientist from the ninja world.

Naoki Kaguya formed hand seals, and a pre-made skeletal clone immediately appeared beside him.

This is a skeletal clone constructed based on Rin Nohara's body. It should be more than enough to fool White Zetsu, right?
This is my first time writing a book, and I want to include some of my own ideas, such as rescuing Nohara Rin and developing Kirigakure to dominate the world. I expect to make significant changes to the original plot, so please bear with me.
