Naruto: A parody of the entire ninja world, the opening scene infuriates the Kage.

Chapter 221 Mitarashi Sweet Potato?
The discussions surrounding the Dragon Vein, and whether the Fourth Hokage truly had an illegitimate daughter, have become hot topics not only in Konoha but throughout the entire ninja world…

【Mitarashi Sweet Potato!】

Suddenly, a title appeared on the screen.

Konoha.

At the entrance of the meatball shop, Hongdou, who was eating red bean meatballs, was stunned.

Her name is Mitarashi Anko, but the screen says something about Mitarashi Sweet Potato. Could that be related to her?
Does she also have a half-sister?
impossible!

Also, sweet potato? What a terrible name, it sounds awful!

While internally complaining, Hongdou continued to devour the meatballs.

But then, Hongdou's eyes widened.

She didn't even have time to eat her favorite red bean dumplings.

She appeared on the light screen.

Yes, that's her.

As a child, she was Orochimaru's disciple.

As a disciple of one of the Three Legendary Sannin, he should have had a bright future ahead of him.

However, Orochimaru defected and did not take her with him.

[Even before Orochimaru defected, he had already begun researching the power of cursed seals. Then, he left the Heavenly Cursed Seal on Mitarashi Anko and erased Anko's related memories...]

red beans:???
Naruto and Sasuke, along with Sakura who was just there to make up the numbers, faced the Chunin Exams. Upon entering the Forest of Death, they quickly encountered Orochimaru, who also left the Cursed Seal of Heaven on Sasuke.

Anko enters the Forest of Death and finds Orochimaru, intending to perish together with him. However, the difference in their strength is too great...

Orochimaru: Although you are a special Jonin in the village, don't use the techniques I taught you casually... Also, don't spoil my fun, or I'll destroy the village you care about.

Hongdou looked unwell and lost her appetite for the meatballs.

Then, the scene changes.

The light screen switched to the Boruto era.

Anko, who grew up in Boruto's era, has become a chubby middle-aged woman.

Having lost the Heavenly Curse Mark, the red bean, who loved sweets, successfully transformed into a sweet potato.

Hongdou was also taken aback.

How could the curse mark Orochimaru left on her prevent her from gaining weight?

Upon closer reflection, it does seem to make sense.

Eating too many sweets can easily lead to weight gain, but she loves sweets and hasn't gained weight despite eating a lot of them, so she thought she was naturally thin. It turns out that the curse mark on her body is preventing her from gaining weight.

So, if Orochimaru hadn't left a curse mark on her, she would have gotten fat long ago!

But if she gains weight, she will lose weight.

As for asking her to give up sweets, that would be a bit difficult for her.

She also didn't want to gain weight.

So, the curse mark on your body... will you leave it?

There aren't many fat female ninjas, actually.

Among the female ninjas of Konoha, the fat ones are almost all concentrated in the Akimichi clan.

However, the Akimichi clan only appears fat because of a secret technique; they can actually lose weight.

All three members of F3 knew that Anko had a cursed mark left by Orochimaru.

F3 all considered the curse mark on Hongdou's body to be a hidden danger.

However, they were unable to remove the curse from Red Bean.

The power of the cursed seal is very strong and strange. Even the Third Hokage could only seal it, but could not eradicate it.

According to the light screen, the cursed seal can also help people lose weight?
The third generation was also an accident.

I was wondering if Mitarashi sweet potato was related to red beans, but it turns out it's just about red beans.

However, isn't it going too far to change someone's name just because Hongdou (Red Bean) got fat?
However, who can control the light screen?
Compared to the current Red Bean, even the third generation would find that fat aunt on the screen an eyesore.

……

The owner of the meatball shop was a little nervous, as Hongdou was one of his biggest customers.

Every day, Hongdou comes to the store to buy meatballs, and they are all sweet.

I won't buy meatballs that aren't sweet.

His shop mainly sells desserts.

If Hongdou stops eating meatballs because she's worried about gaining weight, he'll earn less.

At this moment, some people who knew Hongdou came over and teased her.

As for Hongdou, she was getting a little frustrated.

Now she has a new nickname.

In the future, people will inevitably call her Sweet Potato.

Mitarashi sweet potato? Mitarashi sweet potato?
Red Bean gritted her teeth, feeling equally angry.

He glared angrily at the light screen.

In the past, she found it funny to see others being pranked by the light screen, but when it was her turn, she couldn't laugh.

The smile won't disappear, but it will... shift.

Many people around her looked at her strangely.

Some people were laughing.

……

"Lord Orochimaru's disciple?"

Dou is quite busy these days.

He researched the Impure World Reincarnation technique, practiced the Ryuchi Cave Sage Mode, and assisted Orochimaru in many of his experiments, keeping records.

In addition, they also train ninjas and gather intelligence.

Kabuto knew that Orochimaru had a disciple named Mitarashi Anko.

However, Dou has never taken Hongdou seriously.

Seeing the prank on the screen, Dou just smiled.

Red beans and sweet potatoes? That's interesting.

Actually, calling it red bean bun would be nice too!

At this moment, a pocket also appeared on the light screen.

Dou and Hongdou look like lovers.

Of course, the specifics of the situation were not explained in detail on the screen.

"Masaka~" Dou's mind went blank. Could it be that Hongdou would be his lover in the future?
The image of that plump middle-aged woman lingers in my mind.

For a moment, I got goosebumps all over.

"Dou, your taste..."

Orochimaru appeared not far behind Kabuto.

With his arms crossed in front of him, Orochimaru leaned against the wall, looking at Kabuto with a rather strange gaze.

“It’s definitely not what you’re thinking,” Dou said.

However, I was still feeling uneasy.

……

There was much discussion in Konoha as well.

Even Hongdou's good friend, Yuhi Kurenai, stared wide-eyed.

Kurenai was also shocked to learn that her friend would become a fat old lady in the future.

When Kurenai saw that Anko and Kabuto on the screen looked like a couple, she was completely dumbfounded.

This made Kurenai worry about her friend.

Kabuto is Orochimaru's subordinate.

Orochimaru, on the other hand, is a rogue ninja!
Although the screen says Orochimaru will eventually be redeemed, it's just what the screen says.

Whether Orochimaru will be redeemed in the future is hard to say.

If Orochimaru persists down this path, will Kabuto betray him and return to Konoha?
As for Hongdou's defection, that's completely impossible.

Come to think of it, she used to envy Red Bean for being able to eat sweets without gaining weight. It turns out that Orochimaru's cursed seal was the reason!
In addition, Anko appeared on the screen as a special Jonin.

Right now, Red Bean isn't a particularly high-ranking ninja yet.

It's a pity about Anko; if Orochimaru hadn't defected, Anko's achievements would definitely have been even greater.

Furthermore, as Orochimaru's disciple, Anko's situation in the village was not good after Orochimaru defected.

Kurenai Yuhi saw it all. ...

The land of wind.

In the desert, a Sand Ninja squad discovered a White Zetsu.

After all, there are too many White Zetsu who come to the Land of Wind to search for the ruins of Loulan, so it's not surprising that the Sand Village would find one.

However, capturing a White Zetsu alive, or obtaining a White Zetsu corpse, is not easy.

Now, White Zetsu, surrounded by the Sand Ninja team, is starting to panic.

White Zetsu's combat strength isn't that great.

Of course, there are also powerful White Zetsu, but not this one.

It was also because this White Zetsu was careless. If he had been more cautious, given his perception, he wouldn't have ended up in this situation.

This Sand Ninja squad includes Jonin.

Surrounded, the White Zetsu wanted to escape, but the chances of escape were slim.

We can't beat them, we can't escape them, we're doomed.

Several Sand Ninja then made their move.

Under the onslaught of several Sand Ninja, White Zetsu was brought to his knees, though he did not die, but was severely injured.

Next, the Sand Ninja interrogated the White Zetsu.

Unlike the Yamanaka clan of Konoha, who can read the memories in other people's minds, these Sand Ninja cannot directly read the memories in White Zetsu's minds; they can only conduct simple interrogations.

First determine the value, then consider whether to send it back to the village.

After all, this place is quite far from the village, and it's not easy to go back.

Then a Sand Ninja took out a scroll, unfolded it, and the seal on the scroll was broken, revealing a number of tools, all of which were used for torture.

The simple interrogation had some effect, but the Sand Ninja were still quite disappointed.

After careful consideration, the Sand Ninja decided it was necessary to send him back to the village.

At that moment, one of the Sand Ninja in the team was responsible for taking the White Zetsu back to the village.

……

The discussion in the group was also very lively.

Hashirama, for example, was quite curious about Orochimaru's cursed seal.

Of course, Hashirama was also quite curious about the dragon veins.

Tobirama Senju was very frustrated. If he had known there was a dragon vein beneath Loulan, he definitely wouldn't have let it go.

If Tobirama Senju had mastered the Dragon Vein back then, he wouldn't have died! And Konoha would have been much stronger.

This demonstrates the importance of intelligence.

If it weren't for the mention of dragon veins on the light screen, Tobirama wouldn't have known that there were dragon veins beneath Loulan.

However, it's too late now, no matter how much we regret it.

"I'm afraid this will only benefit Sunagakure," Tobirama thought to himself.

After all, Loulan is in the Land of Wind, and Sunagakure is also in the Land of Wind.

It can be said that the Land of Wind is the territory of Sunagakure.

Sunagakure thus has the home advantage.

Therefore, it is highly likely that Sunagakure found the dragon vein first.

Even if Konoha sent a few ninjas to the Land of Wind to find the Dragon Vein, they couldn't bring it back to Konoha. When the Sand Ninjas mobilized on a large scale, the Konoha ninjas had no choice but to retreat.

After analysis, Tobirama concluded that the dragon vein would be obtained by Sunagakure.

If not 100%, it's close enough!
The thought of Sunagakure obtaining the Dragon Vein made Tobirama worry about the future of Konoha.

According to the light screen, the dragon vein is the lifeblood of the earth and contains infinite chakra.

Sunagakure is one of the five great ninja villages. Even if its strength is not as good as Konoha, Iwagakure, and Kumogakure, or even Kirigakure, as long as it has unlimited chakra, how far is it from crushing Konoha, Iwagakure, and the other four great ninja villages?
But then I thought, those who can become Shadows are not simple.

Konoha, Iwagakure, Kumogakure, Kirigakure, and even many smaller ninja villages will not stand idly by and watch Sunagakure's strength soar after obtaining the Dragon Vein. Therefore, they will unite to put pressure on Sunagakure. As long as Sunagakure is not given time to develop, Sunagakure will have no choice but to compromise.

At this moment, Tobirama was chatting privately with Kakashi, Hiruzen Sarutobi, Might Guy, and others in the group chat.

They were all living Konoha ninja.

Tobirama ignored Danzo, who had become a rogue ninja of Konoha.

No matter how much Danzo was forced into it, and no matter how pure Danzo's Will of Fire was, Tobirama only knew that Danzo had defected from Konoha.

In private conversations between Tobirama, Kakashi, and others, the topic was always the Dragon Vein.

Among the five great ninja villages, Konoha has the strongest sealing techniques. After all, it inherited the legacy of the Uzumaki clan, and Konoha has produced many geniuses who can develop or improve sealing techniques.

As for the smaller ninja villages, they are even less qualified to compare with Konoha.

[Private chat mode, Tobirama and Sarutobi]
Sarutobi: Teacher, I understand.

Tobirama: First, we need to determine if the Dragon Vein exists. It will be very difficult for Konoha to control the Dragon Vein, so sealing it is a good option.

While chatting privately with Tobirama in the group chat, the Third Hokage smoked a cigarette.

Holding a pipe in his hand, the third generation man frowned.

It's really a wave of upheaval.

If this continues, the Fourth Shinobi World War will break out very soon!

The screen revealed that the Third Raikage had plotted to kill the Second Hokage and the Second Raikage, and that the Tsuchikage had also plotted to kill the Third Raikage, which made the atmosphere in the ninja world a bit serious.

Konoha is holding back, but Kumogakure and Iwagakure might just start a war.

Now, the Dragon Vein has been revealed on the screen.

If the Dragon Vein doesn't exist, that's fine. But if it does exist, the five great ninja villages, as well as the Akatsuki organization, will inevitably fight for it, and conflict is unavoidable. When the conflict escalates, it will lead to war.

The third generation did not want war to break out.

If the other four major ninja villages were to attack Konoha again, Konoha might not necessarily win.

In fact, the Third Shinobi World War severely damaged Konoha's strength.

Therefore, after defeating Iwagakure, the Third Hokage, for the sake of the greater good, did not demand reparations from Iwagakure.

Normally, defeated ninja villages are required to pay reparations, and the amount would not be small.

But the third generation also had his own considerations.

It's just that some people in the village don't understand him.

Under pressure, Minato was chosen as Hokage.

When Minato died, he resumed power, but he made no mention of the Fifth Hokage, as if he intended to die in the Hokage position.

Making Jiraiya Hokage was a last resort.

It was also a compromise that Hiruzen Sarutobi made for the sake of the bigger picture.

One must be cautious when it comes to dragon veins.

If not handled properly, it could be the fuse for the Fourth Shinobi World War.

In fact, the other ninja villages were already itching to make a move.

After all, the screen says that Naruto and Sasuke are twins of destiny. So, when Naruto and Sasuke grow up, Konoha will naturally take off. What about the other ninja villages?

Naruto and Sasuke, the Dragon Vein, the hatred between the Five Great Shinobi Villages...

How long can peace last?

The third generation cannot be optimistic.

Then he thought of Danzo again.

However, even if Danzo were here, given his personality, he would only have one word to say: Fight!

He did not agree with Danzo's ideology, believing that Danzo was too extreme and might destroy Konoha.

Therefore, war should be avoided as much as possible.

If it is absolutely unavoidable, we must prevent Konoha from becoming completely mired in the quagmire of war.

Let's wait a bit longer, gather more information, and then discuss it with Jiraiya, Homura Mitokado, and Koharu Utatane. After that, we'll hold a Jonin meeting to unite the village's strength.

It also involved pooling everyone's wisdom to find the best road for the village.

Despite having many thoughts in his mind, the third generation remained calm, with deep gazes.

He exhaled a smoke ring, and a large cloud of smoke filled the area in front of him, but the smoke did not affect his view of the light screen.

In the group chat, he was chatting privately with several people.

In truth, the third generation was still somewhat uneasy. His teacher trusted him, but could he live up to that trust?

Even if the teacher doesn't say it, he's probably disappointed in him!

He could only try to make Danzo take the blame, but Danzo refused to cooperate.
