Start with a Zanpakuto and build the strongest Mist Village

Chapter 149: The Unification of the Ninja World - Mikoto and Kushina
A figure wearing a white haori slowly appeared in the Mizukage's office.

The long light yellow hair tied into a large ponytail, the fair skin and the plump and tall figure all revealed the identity of the visitor.

Captain of the 4th Division of the Gotei 13, Tsunade Senju!
"It seems that the transformation into a god of death was quite successful."

"It's very difficult. The amount of chakra contained in her body is too huge. In order to replace all that energy with natural energy and soul energy, I spent countless efforts." Yumi followed closely behind, with a trace of fatigue between her brows: "But it is precisely because of this that her spiritual power is far stronger than that of ordinary people."

"Oh?"

Ye was a little surprised. In his perception, Tsunade's spiritual power didn't seem to be much different from that of an ordinary captain. She was even weaker than an ordinary captain, about the same level as Ye Cang...

and many more!

Ye's gaze fell on the blue-purple diamond mark between Tsunade's eyebrows.

"Yin seal?"

"To be precise, it's the Yin Seal that seals the spiritual power." Tsunade said calmly: "The Yin Seal was originally an S-level medical sealing technique developed by me. By fine-tuning the chakra, it can achieve the effect of instant healing, strengthening attacks, and increasing speed."

"I am not proficient in controlling my spiritual power, so after completing the transformation into the God of Death, I tried to seal most of my spiritual power with the Yin Seal to make it easier for me to control my spiritual power."

"At the same time, it can also store spiritual energy and release it completely when I need it, so that my strength will increase dramatically in a short period of time."

"I see."

Ye suddenly realized that this thing was somewhat similar to Kenpachi Zaraki's eye mask, but the effect of the Yin Seal was stronger, because in addition to suppressing spiritual power, it could also accumulate spiritual power, so the effect would obviously be stronger.

"very nice."

Ye nodded in approval. Being able to transform the original chakra secret technique into spiritual power secret technique just after completing the transformation into a Death God was enough to show Tsunade's outstanding talent.

The granddaughter of the God of Ninja, the future Fifth Hokage, is indeed extraordinary.

"The training of a god of death is not much different from that of a ninja. As top ninjas, you only need to adapt the source of energy into spiritual power, and everything is the same. This also means that the skills you have mastered in the past can be replaced by spiritual power."

"Just like the Yin Seal you are concentrating now."

"As for the abilities that belong only to the gods of death in the Soul Society..."

Ye slowly closed his eyes, and an invisible spiritual power surged into Tsunade's body.

Tsunade's delicate body trembled, and she felt as if she was filled up completely.

At this moment, he couldn't even control his own body, and he had convulsions and almost collapsed to the ground.

Fortunately, Uzumaki Yumi, who was standing by, was quick to support Tsunade's body. However, even so, Tsunade still seemed to have lost all her bones. She fell into Yumi's arms like a puddle of water, sweating profusely, her eyes rolled back, and her cheeks flushed...

It was not until Ye finished granting skills such as Zanquanguizou that Tsunade's condition gradually eased and returned to normal.

"What on earth is this..."

Feeling the complete skill system that appeared in her mind, Tsunade opened her mouth with an expression of disbelief.

Including swordsmanship, physical skills, instant movement (shunbu), and ninjutsu (kidō), in just a few moments, Tsunade found that she had mastered a whole new combat system!

"This is the 'slash', 'punch', 'ghost' and 'walk' that are used exclusively by the God of Death. It is a combat system that belongs to the God of Death and is specially used to match the release of spiritual power." Ye explained.

"I have already engraved the basic skills of the Slash Fist and Ghost Walk directly into your soul. As for the Ghost Way above level 90, higher-level swordsmanship, and White Fighting, you have to learn from me. If you want to master them, you can come to me at any time."

These Fist-Slashing and Ghost-Shooting Skills were given to them directly by Ye, but they were not exchanged by Ye from the Death System. Instead, they were repeated skills that Ye had unearthed from boxes over the years.

The mysterious gift box can reveal duplicate skills. Those duplicate skills can be used repeatedly by Ye to increase experience points and proficiency, and can also be given to other people.

Currently, those who master the ghost way in Soul Society are the result of repeated accumulation of what Ye has opened through mysterious gift boxes over the years... Forget it, I won’t say more. It will only bring tears if I say too much.

"I understand." Tsunade nodded slightly.

"Well, in addition to these, the most important thing about the Shinigami is the Zanpakutō. It is not only a part of your soul, but also the simplest and most powerful power you can master next. As for how to do it, Yumi will teach you."

"At this stage, the captains of the Soul Society have all completed Shikai and Bankai. You are the captain of the Fourth Division in my mind, and I think you will have no problem doing that."

"Ah."

"Dong dong."

There was a knock on the door. Ye retracted his spiritual power and leaned back lazily: "It's the full moon, come in."

Mangetsu Kizuki pushed the door open and was slightly stunned when he saw Yumi and the figure wearing a white haori with the word "four" engraved on the back. When he saw the appearance of the captain of the fourth division clearly, the expression on his face became extremely strange.

But he didn't say much, but took out a scroll from his arms and placed it on the desk.

"Sir, the Sand Village has fully accepted their proposal, but they are worried that something might go wrong in Konoha, so the Fourth Kazekage proposed to hold a Kage meeting, with the Fourth Kazekage, the Fourth Mizukage, and the Fourth Hokage discussing this cooperation project together."

"As for the location of the Shadow Conference, the Fourth Kazekage hopes to be in the Land of Iron. At the same time, the Fourth Kazekage has already sent the specific projects of cooperation and the invitation letter to the Shadow Conference to Konoha."

"The Three Kage Talks? The Iron Nation?"

Looking through the scroll brought back by Man Yue Gui Deng, Ye raised his eyebrows slightly, a little surprised.

Due to the geographical location, the construction of a super multinational bridge and various close cooperation between Kirigakure and Sand Village cannot cross the Fire Country.

For such a large-scale cooperation project, it is indeed a good choice to let the film and the film companies negotiate with each other directly to discuss the general direction and profit distribution.

But isn’t this time a bit too sensitive?

Ye Xu narrowed his eyes.

It is now June of the fifty-first year, and the Shadow Conference will be held in three months, which will be between September and October.

In October of 1951...

Ye knew that Uzumaki Kushina was pregnant, but he was not sure about the exact time of delivery. However, in the original work, the prince's birthday was October 10th, the 51st year of Konoha, so even if there were some discrepancies, it should not be too far off.

In other words.

"Are you finally ready to take action, Obi-tou..."

He took advantage of the Shadow Conference to transfer Minato Namikaze away, and took action while Uzumaki Kushina was pregnant and giving birth.

It’s a good idea indeed.

When talking about the love-hate relationship between Obito and Minato Namikaze, we have to mention a story in which Kamui can't hide his tears.

But then again, in this world, with his intervention and influence, it was not Hatake Kakashi who killed Nohara Rin, but Namikaze Minato!

To avenge the beloved and to stage a story of kindness between a master and a disciple, there seems to be nothing wrong with the second fight at Dongsongshan.

"Send a letter to inform the Fourth Kazekage that I accept the proposal for the Kage Conference, but the specific details, including the location of the Kage Conference, still need to ask the Fourth Hokage for his opinion."

"Yes!"

Hozuki Mangetsu left respectfully, but Tsunade was a little curious: "You want to cooperate with Sunagakure and Konoha?"

"It's mainly about Sunagakure. You know the situation in Wind Country. That country is just as bad as our Water Country. It's even worse than our Water Country. After all, we have abundant aquatic products here. Except for the heavy humidity, everything else is pretty good. But those who understand will understand the harsh environment in Wind Country."

"I am a kind-hearted person. I cannot bear to see others suffer so I wanted to help them. That is why I developed this Feng Shui cooperation project. As for Konoha, it is only because of its geographical location."

"You are kind-hearted?"

Tsunade looked at Ye with a strange expression. You just casually carried out the forbidden bloodline experiment and soul experiment. You don't look like a kind person at all.

However, Tsunade still took the so-called 'Feng Shui Cooperation Project' and looked at it carefully. The more she looked, the more surprised she became.

If this is really the case according to the engineering cooperation, then the Hidden Mist Village is really kind-hearted!
"You only got the money, but for the Sand Village in the Wind Country, whether it is the super cross-sea bridge or the construction of various reservoirs and channels, they are all great benefits for the present and future generations..." Tsunade said in disbelief: "This kind of behavior that obviously strengthens other countries is actually done by you?!"

Ye glanced at Tsunade's chest and said dissatisfiedly:

"Can you expand your vision a little bit like your heart? Don't always just see the first-level benefits of things."

"First of all, the people of Wind Country are suffering so much. I can't bear it and I want to help them. What's wrong with that?"

"Secondly, connecting the two countries of Feng and Shui, and creating a super-sea bridge that spans the three major countries of Wind, Fire, and Water, as well as several small countries, is the basis for the gradual integration of the ninja world. It is not just a union between the two countries of Feng and Shui. In the future, there will also be large-scale cooperation projects between the two countries of Water and Earth..."

"Wait, what did you just say?" Tsunade suddenly spoke, interrupting Ye's words.

"You just said... the ninja world... is integrated?" "That's right."

Ye nodded and said as a matter of course: "Think about it yourself, a small ninja world has five big countries and dozens of small countries. Isn't this the root cause of war and a betrayal of peace?"

"Of course, what I want to do is not some plan for the Water Country to conquer the Ninja World. This behavior will only continue to cause wars and plunge the entire Ninja World into endless flames of war. Even if I can unify the Ninja World with my absolute power, the evil intentions of the remnants of various countries will eventually cause the New Star Empire I have established to decay and collapse, not to mention the countless Otsutsuki in the Void Star Sea."

"So, what I have to do is to first eliminate the gap between countries and change their way of thinking from 'village ninja' or 'national ninja' to a member of the ninja world."

Ye said calmly, "During this process, the fishing industry of the Water Country will be refined and developed in depth, and combined with industry and commerce, the economic sources of the Water Country will be diversified. Not only that, this operation can also silently promote our way of life and invade other countries, and ultimately achieve soft control over the economy and culture of all forces in the Ninja World with absolute economic advantages and leadership."

"Of course, in this process, we can also use the old tricks of ninja, such as sending out spies, detectives, and undercover agents to ensure that when the other party gets desperate, we can deal with them in the first place, so that they will not cause much damage to the current situation."

"..."

Tsunade opened her mouth. She thought that Mizunoe was doing all these things for some huge conspiracy, but she didn't expect that the conspiracy would be so big!
No, this is no longer a conspiracy.

This is……

ideal!

"I can't help it. I can't face the fire in the backyard while I'm facing the Otsutsuki on the front line." Ye shrugged and said calmly, "The unification of the ninja world is a must, but how to unify it depends on how much time those guys in the sky can give me. Fortunately, at present, there is still enough time."

If we follow the timeline of Boruto, then Ye still has at least nearly twenty years left.

But what I am afraid of is those tree planters who play tricks.

Apart from anything else, that guy... has been hiding in the ninja world.

Otsutsuki Ishiki!
……

"Wow, it's a girl!"

Inside the Uchiha base, Uzumaki Kushina, with her big belly, looked at the baby in Uchiha Mikoto's arms with a look of surprise on her face.

"It's a boy."

"It's so cute!"

Kushina stretched out her fingers and gently teased the baby in Mikoto's arms, causing it to wave its hands and babbled. Kushina turned her head and looked at Uchiha Mikoto, whose face was filled with happiness, and said enviously, "What's her name?"

"Sasuke, Uchiha Sasuke." Mikoto hugged Sasuke with a gentle look on her face.

"It's the same name as Sandai-sama's father!"

"Yes, Fugaku and I both hope that he can become a powerful and outstanding ninja in the future." Uchiha Mikoto looked at Kushina's bulging belly and said, "By the way, Kushina, you should be giving birth soon. It's best to give him a name first, otherwise it will be quite troublesome to give him a name after the birth."

"It's already been taken."

Kushina's hands brushed her abdomen, and then her palms gently fell on Sasuke's head: "His name is Naruto. In the future, he will be Sasuke's classmate. I hope they can become good friends."

"But then again..."

Kushina suddenly lowered her voice, with a hint of fear on her face: "Mikoto, it is said that giving birth will be very, very painful, is it true..."

"Hahaha, I didn't expect Kushina to be afraid of pain, how surprising~"

"After all, it's giving birth." Kushina said with some stage fright: "I've never experienced this kind of thing before... By the way, I don't think I saw Itachi today, is he training?"

"Ah, that kid is always like that."

When Mikoto thought of her eldest son, her eyes revealed a hint of sadness, but more of it was pride.

What mother doesn't want her child to be with her? What's more, Itachi is only five years old now, at the cutest and most lovable age.

But, that was Uchiha Itachi, a child who showed talent comparable to that of the genius boy Uchiha Shisui!
Thinking of Shisui in her mind, Mikoto's mood became even more depressed. She sighed and said, "Ever since Shisui disappeared and Itachi showed his talent again, Fugaku has placed all his hopes and responsibilities on Itachi, hoping that he, who showed his talent so early, can grow faster."

"To be honest, I really don't want Itachi to stay like this. It's really too tiring, but there's nothing I can do. He's the clan leader's son and the future hope of the entire Uchiha clan, so..."

"I understand!"

Kushina nodded deeply. She had been trained to be the next Jinchūriki of the Nine-Tails since she was a child. She would take over the baton from Uzumaki Mito, so she understood this feeling best.

That kind of pressure, that feeling of being the center of attention, is extremely difficult to bear.

"However, when Sasuke grows up a little, Itachi should also pay more attention to his brother. Also, you should also talk to Fugaku. There is no need to be so tired. With Minato and I here, no matter whether it is the Uchiha or the village, we will not let it happen to any accidents!"

"Kushina, Uchiha Fuchi..."

"Kushina!"

Mikoto gently held her best friend's hand and wanted to chat for a while, but Namikaze Minato, wearing the Fourth Hokage's costume, walked out of the room with Fugaku.

Namikaze Minato waved to Kushina, then turned around and said to Fugaku: "I'm really sorry that there is still no news about Orochimaru, and not long after Sasuke was born, I asked you to be my guard and go to the Iron Kingdom..."

"It's okay Minato."

Uchiha Fugaku sighed softly: "Everything is for Konoha, isn't it?"

"Yes, everything for Konoha!"

Namikaze Minato nodded heavily, then greeted Uchiha Mikoto, teased Sasuke for a bit, and then left the Uchiha base with Kushina.

Looking at the two people leaving and the Fourth Hokage's divine robe shining in the sunlight, Uchiha Fugaku's expression became more and more complicated.

"Have you talked to Minato yet?"

Mikoto held Sasuke in one hand and gently held Fugaku's arm with the other.

"Yeah." Fugaku came back to his senses and nodded, "Minato suggested that I be the guard for this Shadow Conference, and I have agreed."

The children of Shota and Yuuki were taken away by Orochimaru and there has been no news since then. In order to appease the Uchiha people, Namikaze Minato finally decided to let Uchiha Fugaku serve as the guard of this Shadow Conference.

"Will Hinata agree?" Mikoto was a little worried.

The guards of the Shadow Conference may seem to be just guards, but everyone knows their value.

The bodyguard of the first Hokage was Tobirama Senju, who became the second Hokage.

The guard of the Third Hokage was Minato Namikaze, who took the position of the Fourth Hokage from a number of strong competitors such as Orochimaru.

And this is also the case in almost all other ninja villages in the ninja world, with only very rare examples, such as the Third Mizukage who was robbed of the position of Mizukage by the Second Mizukage, but later he still became the Third Mizukage.

It can be said that as long as one can become the Shadow Guardian, he is basically the destined Shadow heir.

It was obvious that Minato Namikaze wanted to use this opportunity to reveal his attitude in order to appease and win over the Uchiha.

"Hinata? Humph, even if they disagree, so what? In Konoha, we Uchiha are the strongest!" Uchiha Fugaku snorted coldly: "However, Minato also gave him a lot of benefits. The position of an Anbu team leader is enough to shut up Hiashi."

"Anbu..."

Mikoto sighed softly.

As the force directly under the control of the Hokage, Anbu has rarely been involved in the affairs of major clans. Clanes like the Uchiha and Hyuga have never joined Anbu.

In order to appease Hinata, Minato offered him a position as a team leader, which was enough to show his courage.

"Hinata and Uchiha... let's just take it one step at a time." Mikoto said softly, "Try not to cause too much conflict. We are all from Konoha."

"Um……"

"Father! Mother!" Suddenly, a short young man appeared in front of the two of them and said respectfully.

When he saw Itachi, Fugaku's eyes suddenly lit up and he hummed in his heart.

What do you mean by taking one step at a time? I already have a son, Uchiha Itachi, and Hiashi just gave birth to a little girl. Why do they compete with me?

Besides, even if I can't do it, Itachi must be able to do it.

My son, Uchiha Itachi, has the potential to be Hokage!
