Naruto: By lying low and hiding, he eventually became the leader of the Legendary Sannin.

Melt the butter in a pot, then put the high-quality beef you bought into the pot and cook for several seconds. After pouring in the sauce, add the corresponding vegetables.

After covering the pot with the lid and waiting only five minutes, you can uncover it and enjoy your meal.

He scooped up a handful of beef and put it in his mouth with satisfaction, enjoying the burst of juices in his mouth.

While he was overjoyed, he couldn't help but feel a little regretful. Compared to this sweet sauce, he missed the spicy hot pot from his previous life.

After all, this kind of flavor is okay to eat occasionally, but it gets a bit bland if you eat it long-term, and it doesn't have the same stimulating feeling as spicy hot pot.

And so, Kagura, enjoying the delicious food alone, savored this wonderful time that was all her own.

Not long after, looking at the completely empty iron pot in front of her, Kagura let out a satisfied burp.

Just as he collapsed on the ground, preparing to rest for a while before tidying up, there was a knock on the door.

Before Kagura could even utter a sound, the man spoke directly:

"Uchiha Kagura, the clan head invites you to the shrine for a meeting."

Upon hearing this, Kagura frowned.

At this time, the head of the Uchiha clan was not the seven or eight-year-old Fugaku Uchiha, but an old man who was unknown in history.

I heard that this clansman was a contemporary of Madara Uchiha.

When Madara Uchiha proposed to leave Konoha, he represented the clan members who wanted peace and led all the clan members to stay in the village.

After the duel between Madara Uchiha and Hashirama Senju, it was this old man who, through his wisdom, enabled the Uchiha clan to continue living peacefully in the village.

Moreover, unlike Fugaku Uchiha, who would later develop a strong sense of clan identity, this clan leader adopted a more moderate policy towards managing the clan.

He rarely interfered with or controlled the Uchiha clan members, which is one of the reasons why Kagura didn't feel much restriction from her clan after her transmigration.

It must be said that it was precisely because of his laissez-faire policy that the Uchiha clan was able to survive peacefully in Konoha during this sensitive period.

Upon hearing the man's words, Kagura lowered her head slightly and pondered for a moment, instantly guessing many of the elder's intentions.

He responded softly:

"I understand, I'll go now."

As he spoke, he straightened his clothes and opened the door.

Sure enough, it was a member of the Uchiha clan outside the door. He was wearing a kimono with the family crest, which looked like a fan, clearly printed on the back.

He glanced at Shen Le, said nothing, and led the way straight ahead.

Kagura didn't mind and followed behind after closing the door.

He knew the location of the Uchiha Shrine, but as far as he could remember, this was his first time there.

In fact, due to Kagura's deliberate distancing, he had never been very familiar with the members of his clan.

This is why he wasn't too surprised when he didn't recognize Uchiha Shizuto.

After walking through several streets, they arrived at the family's shrine.

The person leading the way stopped in front of the door and said to Kagura:

"I cannot go in without the clan chief's permission, so you can go in by yourself from here on out."

Kagura nodded, stepped through the door, and went inside.

Rows of candles provided light along the dimly lit corridor, and in the flickering candlelight, Kagura could barely make out the Uchiha clan crest on the wall.

Kagura quickly passed through the long corridor and arrived at a tall room.

On both sides of the room, there was a series of rectangular wooden plaques, and in front of each plaque was a lit incense burner.

In the very center stands a huge statue, clad in armor.

Kagura looked closely at the statue and felt that it looked somewhat familiar.

After a moment, he finally remembered the source of the familiarity. Wasn't this statue the image of the Uchiha clan using Susanoo?

Before he could think any further, an old voice came from ahead.

"You're here?"

At that moment, Kagura noticed a slightly hunched figure standing beneath the statue.

This person is the current head of the Uchiha clan.

Chapter 78 Changes in World Lines

Looking at the clan chief's white-haired appearance, Kagura couldn't help but sigh in her heart.

Speaking of which, as someone of the same generation as Uchiha Madara, he and Uchiha Madara were not that far apart in age.

But compared to the old man before him, Uchiha Madara, who appeared that day, still resembled a middle-aged man in his prime.

Perhaps it was because of the piece of flesh and blood he obtained from Hashirama Senju?

If we follow the original storyline, Madara Uchiha lived until the Nine-Tails incident before dying, meaning he was actually close to 80 years old when he died.

If he hadn't only awakened the Rinnegan when he was nearing death, he wouldn't have devised a series of schemes to manipulate Obito and Nagato.

As she pondered this, Kagura suddenly discovered a loophole.

According to the original storyline, Madara Uchiha summoned the Gedo Mazo only after he awakened the Rinnegan.

Then, using the Gedo Mazo as a catalyst to cultivate Hashirama cells, they created the White Zetsu that was produced when the Infinite Tsukuyomi was activated last time.

But why is Tobi, who is a White Zetsu, now standing in front of me?

The last time they met, he witnessed firsthand that Madara Uchiha had not awakened the Rinnegan.

No, this all contradicts the plot he knows!

As Kagura pondered, he suddenly realized this fatal change.

After taking a deep breath, he could only think of one possibility: that the Black Zetsu had acted ahead of schedule.

Only it could possibly help Madara Uchiha create White Zetsu ahead of time.

But why does it act ahead of schedule?

Now that the entire timeline has changed, will I still be able to wait for the protagonists Naruto and Sasuke to come out and save the world?

At this moment, Kagura truly felt panic.

For him, his greatest wish after being transported here was to survive.

But when he learned that the future where everyone was subject to Tsukuyomi might come sooner than expected, he felt a deep sense of powerlessness.

Inside the shrine, the Uchiha clan leader quietly watched Kagura.

Although he didn't understand why the genius of this clan had shown signs of contemplation, confusion, and even fear after entering the shrine.

However, he did not disturb Kagura's thoughts, but simply stayed quietly in place, watching this clansman.

After a long while, Kagura finally gathered her thoughts and refocused her attention on reality.

In any case, since things have already taken a turn for the worse, the only thing I can do is try to prevent that apocalypse from happening.

The other side has Black Zetsu, but we also have ourselves on this side.

Since we can guess their purpose, even if we don't defeat the BOSS, we can at least slow them down so that Naruto and the others can be born safely.

Thinking of this, he turned his gaze back to the clan leader in front of him.

Seemingly noticing Kagura's change, the clan leader then spoke:

"I heard you ran into Madara Uchiha during your high school entrance exam?"

Upon hearing this, Kagura nodded and replied:

"Yes."

The aged clan chief hesitated for a moment before continuing:

"Could you tell me the whole story in detail?"

Kagura thought for a moment, organized her thoughts, and then began to recount the entire incident.

Kagura didn't slack off and recounted the details of the entire incident in as much detail as possible.

He believed that the old man in front of him must have learned about the incident through other channels, but even so, he still asked him again, probably because he wanted to hear some details that others had not mentioned.

For a full ten minutes, Kagura recounted everything from the initial assessment to helping Yagura break free from control.

Throughout the entire process, the old man opposite me remained motionless, like a still piece of wood.

After finishing her narration, Kagura licked her somewhat dry lips and looked at the old man in front of her.

At this moment, the clan chief seemed to restart from a pause, raising his hand to his mouth and coughing lightly twice.

He looked at Kagura with admiration and said in praise:

"You have very good eyesight."

Hearing this praise, which was the same as that given by Madara Uchiha, Kagura was slightly taken aback.

The clan chief ignored him and turned back to look at the statue behind him.

He spoke as if to himself, yet also as if whispering to Kagura:

"So many years have passed, but Ban's appearance doesn't seem to have changed much."

Although we have different beliefs, I always firmly believed that he was a person who cared about his people.

But what he did this time...

Cough cough cough…"

The clan chief did not continue speaking, but just kept coughing.

However, Kagura did understand what he meant.

Indeed, Madara Uchiha was a competent clan leader in the early stages.

Especially after his younger brother died, protecting his people became his only belief, because of his brother's last words.

But all of this changed after he asked to leave Konoha but no one from his clan followed him, and after he encountered Black Zetsu.

Whether it was controlling Obito's life through conspiracy or resolutely planning the Nine-Tails incident.
