Zhu Tian: Starting from the Stand User

Chapter 571: One-step Movement
Traveling through time is always an interesting thing.

V couldn't help but get excited: "Is there a secret to traveling through time there?"

Lu Chen did have some basic understanding of the dragon veins. That place did have the ability to travel through time. And there shouldn't be any enemies at this time. After all, Minato had already killed the enemy.

V felt like he had nothing else to do here, so he suggested to Lu Chen, "How about we go take a look?"

It was like he had suddenly received a mission, and the next step was to complete it. He had been so busy that he had forgotten he had to find a pair of eyes. And he probably hadn't mastered the Eight Gates Ninjutsu yet, right?
So there is no need to rush to see what is so special about the dragon vein at this time.

Lu Chen shook his head and said, "Don't worry, we'll go to the desert to look for dragon veins later. We still have some things to do, right?"

After saying that, he picked up the Nine-Tails in his hand and shook it at Minato and said, "The Nine-Tails thought that it didn't want to return to where it was sealed. I think we should also consider the intentions of the tailed beasts in this matter. So I stopped you from using the sealing technique to forcibly pull the Nine-Tails back."

Minato, who was proficient in sealing techniques, looked at the black liquid wrapped around the Nine-Tails and found that it seemed to have the ability to isolate other forces.

"It has caused great harm to Konoha, so we must seal the Nine-Tails away."

Then Minato smiled frankly and continued, "And my wife can't leave the Nine-Tails. A Jinchūriki can't be without the tailed beast in his body."

Minato was quite open about this, he had to ensure the safety of his wife.

Lu Chen suggested: "I can allow your wife to safely remove the tailed beast from her body, and even replenish the power you lost without the tailed beast. Having a tailed beast is not a good thing for the village."

There are many people who want to snatch the tailed beasts. Almost every member of the Otsutsuki clan who comes to this world will try to snatch the scattered power of the sacred tree.

"."

Minato fell silent. It would have been better for him if his wife hadn't been a Jinchūriki, but that was the inevitability of being a village Kage. Almost every village had the Kage's wife, son, or brother become a Jinchūriki. There was even the option of becoming a Jinchūriki himself.

So for the sake of Konoha he will not resist this, and the tailed beasts are indispensable as weapons of war.

Although the damage caused by the Nine-Tails to Konoha was greater than the results achieved, after all, for Konoha, Jinchūriki could not be sent to the battlefield. Other hidden villages did not have these concerns.

Lu Chen said to the somewhat silent Minato: "How about it? Use a last resort that is almost useless in exchange for the remaining power."

At this time, an Anbu jumped out from the shadows on the side. He had just seen Minato talking to Lu Chen and V. The two of them were the two who helped Konoha defeat the powerful enemy and were well-liked by the general ninjas.

Originally, he shouldn't bother the Hokage at this time, but this matter was a major event that concerned the rest of the village, so he had to tell the Hokage the information immediately.

Minato looked at the Anbu who was hesitant to speak and said, "Is there something wrong?" The man knelt on one knee and replied, "Hokage-sama, I have very important information that I need to report to you immediately."

Minato nodded and said to Lu Chen: "Sorry, please wait for me here for a while."

After saying this, he and the Anbu walked off to the side. He needed to know what exactly had happened. Could it be that Konoha had suffered a few sudden attacks, giving the other villages what they thought was an opportunity to exploit, and so they declared war on Konoha again?
Lu Chen noticed the visitor's hesitation and realized that he must have important information to tell Minato, so Lu Chen pricked up his ears and drove his observation Haki to the extreme.

His gossipy soul could no longer be restrained. In fact, what the Anbu said to Minato was of no value to Lu Chen, but knowing some secrets could make Lu Chen feel happy.

The Anbu whispered in Minato's ear, "Hokage-sama, different ninja villages have been attacked recently. The Jinchūriki of each village have been captured by an unknown entity. There have been heavy casualties among the Jinchūriki. According to spies, even the Mizukage was killed in the battle."

While Konoha was attacked twice in a row, the other hidden villages did not benefit either. Isshiki Otsutsuki, who was hiding in the ninja world, attacked the other tailed beasts.

Now that he has found the right wedge, he must use the residual heat of Jigen's body to obtain the tailed beast for himself, and then plant the sacred tree.

After that, he will be resurrected in Nagato's body, which is why Isshiki has not caused trouble for Nagato during this period.

In less than half a month, the one-tailed snake of Sand Village, the three-tailed snake of Mist Village, the two-tailed snake and the eight-tailed snake of Cloud Village, and the four-tailed snake and the five-tailed snake of Iwagakure were all captured by Isshiki.

Isshiki's progress during this period was rapid. After all, every village was already weakened by the war, so now was the perfect time for him to act.

Aside from Killer Bee's life, saved by the Eight-Tails's severing of its tentacles, all the remaining Jinchūriki perished in the battle. This was the intelligence gathered by Konoha's spies in various villages. Even the Mizukage was defeated and killed, and during this time, all the villages were weakened to varying degrees.

As for the Seven-Tailed Fox of Takigakure, Konoha did not arrange spies for such a small country, so it is not clear whether the Seven-Tailed Fox has been stolen.

As for Konoha, he saved the strongest tailed beast for last, and he had already obtained information. Jiraiya, one of Konoha's three ninjas, took away the wedge he had chosen. So he planned to take Nagato and the Nine-Tails away with him.

Lu Chen was very satisfied with the news he heard. This news might prompt Minato to give up the Nine-Tails for Kushina's safety.

Minato thought seriously for a long time, then asked, "Does the Sandaime-sama know about this?"

Such a major matter cannot be decided by him alone. He must communicate with the third generation and the advisors before making a decision.

The Anbu responded to this question: "We haven't reported to the Sandaime-sama yet. The Sandaime-sama went to look for Orochimaru-sama and hasn't returned yet."

Orochimaru's location was the Root's territory, so even the Anbu, directly under the Hokage, wouldn't easily set foot there. This was due to the prestige Danzo had established. After all, under Danzo's control, the Root was virtually independent of Konoha.
