Konoha: Starting with a sign-in for Hashirama cells

"What's that? I'll try it too." Sakura said with a smile, taking one from Ino's hand and popping it into her mouth.

She was quickly stunned.

A strange feeling, indescribable in words, welled up in my heart.

Is it flames or a whirlwind? A strange, inexplicable substance filled Naruto and emanated from his body.

Neither Ino nor Hinata had it, only Naruto did.

"Huh! What, what's going on? Is this the malice Naruto was talking about? Why? Why would Naruto have malice towards me?"

With a blank expression, Sakura couldn't understand this problem.

Just like Ino, she got stuck there and didn't react for a long time.

Hinata, curious, looked at Naruto with questioning eyes. After confirming that everything was alright, she also took a chakra pill and swallowed it.

Chakradan melts in your mouth and has no taste.

Needless to say, the taste is nonexistent.

"!?" Hinata.

Is this feeling malicious?

Why do Sakura and Ino harbor ill will towards her?

They often have meals together, chat, and go shopping. In Hinata's heart, he is her best friend besides Naruto.

why?

Ino, Sakura, and Hinata all fell into a daze and fell silent after consuming the chakra pills, looking as if they were questioning the meaning of life.

Naruto smiled slightly and said, "The ability to sense malice is defined as having a very broad scope of malice."

"Jealousy, ill will, covetousness, greed, disgust, murderous intent, hatred, and rejection arising from fear are all included."

"No matter how small the malice, it can be sensed. If a person performs even slightly well, it will always arouse the jealousy of others."

"Sometimes, you might accidentally say something that offends someone and makes them feel disgusted."

"Or maybe that person has malicious intent and is plotting something against you. Even just thinking about it can be considered malicious."

This is why the Nine Lamas cannot trust humans, or hate them, or desire their power, or fear them—all of these are malicious.

"Oh, I see." Ino said stiffly.

envy?

What is there about her that Naruto would be jealous of?

Disgust, murderous intent, hatred, and fear are even more unbelievable and out of the question.

Several years ago, during the genjutsu hypnosis she used to help Naruto awaken his Rinnegan, she learned from Naruto that he liked her.

Surely it's not that liking something will turn into disliking it over time, right? That would be too far-fetched.

Therefore, by eliminating all possibilities, the remaining results are: ill intentions, covetousness, and greed.

Thinking of this, Ino looked down at her own body.

Although her breasts weren't as voluptuous as Hinata's, they were still exceptionally well-developed among her peers.

It's normal for Naruto, being a boy, to have certain thoughts.

It would be strange if they had no ideas at all.

"Is that so?" Ino wasn't sure, so she turned her head and saw Sakura's eyes flickering, cold sweat pouring out, looking very shaken.

"Since I'm alright, then I'll head back now." With that, Sakura activated Flying Thunder God Technique and fled as if her life depended on it.

"I told you not to act alone." Naruto said helplessly, "Ino, please."

With a belly full of questions, Ino nodded and stepped into the Yomotsu Hirasaka that had appeared out of thin air.

"Naruto, have you always been like this?" Hinata asked hesitantly.

“Yes,” Naruto replied.

"You can know a person's face but not their heart. Moreover, with the ability to disguise yourself, no one knows whether the people you come into contact with are good people or not."

"For safety reasons, I've been driving it ever since I mastered this skill."

"Then, do I... do I have any malicious intent?" Hinata whispered.

“Yes.” Naruto nodded.

"How could this be!" Hinata exclaimed in disbelief, instinctively protesting, "No! Impossible! I would never have any ill intentions towards you, absolutely! There must be some mistake!"

"Didn't I say? Covetousness and greed are both forms of malice," Naruto explained.

"For example, you might want to possess me, want to have me all to yourself, or have feelings of greed for me."

"Not much, just a little, and it will evolve into a perceptible malice."

"Although I can't tell what kind of malice it is, I believe you won't hate me, despise me, or despise me."

Hinata fidgeted with her fingers and muttered, "Is that really true, Naruto? Don't you want me? Don't you want to have me all to yourself? Don't you have any desires for me?"

"Why don't I sense any malice from you?"

"What are you talking about?" Naruto said, amused. "I've already got you, haven't I? We're together every day."

"To put it this way, if you had the ability to sense malice before we did that, you would definitely have been able to sense malice from me."

"Back then, I really coveted you and wanted to have you."

"So, do you want to continue what we were just interrupted about? Of course, we need to take these White Zetsu back and settle them down first."

Hearing Naruto say that, Hinata took several steps back, her face turning red at a visible speed. She habitually looked down and poked her fingers at Naruto, not daring to look at him.

Seeing this, Naruto chuckled and snapped his fingers.

Instantly, thousands of white monsters on the scene trembled in unison, holding hands and standing in a line.

~~~

Located on the border of the Land of Earth, this is another of Obito's hidden strongholds.

While learning the Impure World Reincarnation, Obito received memories transmitted back from the disappearance of his Wood Release clones.

"Uchiha Sasuke, you, whose family was destroyed by Konoha, are still willing to help the people of Konoha. I think too highly of you."

Sasuke was supposed to be a powerful asset that Obito planned to develop.

Judging from the current situation, there's no point in even thinking about it.

The mere hatred of the annihilation of his clan, compared to Konoha and Naruto, meant nothing to Sasuke.

"Has Madara's soul truly been released?"

Obito pondered.

So suspicious.

This seems more like bait that Naruto deliberately released in order to search for him.

Turning his head to look at the petri dish, he saw the cell tissue of Madara that he had obtained from Orochimaru when he switched Orochimaru earlier.

This stuff, you can only use a little bit at a time, it's not worth wasting, so...

Before attempting to use the Impure World Reincarnation technique, you should cultivate more of them, always leaving a minimum number of Immovable ones as a safety net.

"Judging from this progress, it should be almost done in another two or three days," Obito murmured.

Suddenly, he gouged out his left eye.

This was the night of the Uchiha clan massacre. He participated in it and obtained one of the Sharingan from the entire wall.

"Eyes of mediocre quality, three tomoe is already the upper limit, there is no way to improve them."

These eyes have only one use left: to use Izanagi once.

Obito reinstalled a Sharingan, a double-tomoe Sharingan, and used the power of the nine-tomoe Rinnegan to stimulate it.

He hoped to use this method to create the Mangekyou Sharingan to replace his left eye, Kamui, which Orochimaru had destroyed.

Chapter 258 Five Kage Summit

Click, click, click.

In the quiet room, the sound of the clock was particularly clear.

Obito, who was gathering his emotions and preparing to stimulate his eyes in preparation for advancing to the Mangekyou Sharingan stage, suddenly paused.

"Now that place has been discovered, it means that all the information there is no longer a secret."

The original plan was to proceed gradually, slowly building up a few powerful moves to attract Naruto's attention, create trouble for him, and keep him preoccupied with other matters.

Right now, it's destined to fall through.

So, rather than losing so many White Zetsu chips in vain at the last moment, it's better to let them radiate their last bit of energy before they die.

Make the best use of everything.

"In this way, trust between people can drop to a freezing point, and war will follow."

The more chaotic the situation in the ninja world, the better, as it would be more advantageous for him to fish in troubled waters and interfere.

Having made up his mind, Obito formed a hand seal with one hand.

The nine-tomoe Rinnegan located between the eyebrows unleashes boundless ocular power, capable of detecting all White Zetsu, who have switched places and are lurking in various countries and ninja villages, from an extremely long distance.

Issue instructions.

at the same time.

After dealing with the spoils of this trip, Naruto, who was about to return to the moon with Hinata, received memories from after his clone disappeared, and clicked his tongue in disbelief.

"What's wrong?" Hinata asked, puzzled.

"I've arranged for shadow clones to inform Tsunade and also to eliminate the White Zetsu lurking in the village," Naruto said. "We only managed to take down six; there wasn't enough time for the rest."

"You mean!" Hinata's eyes widened.

"They...self-destructed," Naruto said.
