Naruto: Starting from the Reincarnation of the Otsutsuki

Shaziyi froze completely.

"Although your performance just now was indeed quite moving."

"but...."

Timon held up a finger as he spoke, his face radiating an air of certainty that said, "I have seen through everything."

"I've already seen through your intentions!"

Shazi's heart skipped a beat.

This fat guy...

He actually saw through her plan to use her beauty to escape!

For a moment, a somewhat absurd thought arose in Shazi's mind.

Could it be this seemingly the most dull and slow-witted guy?

Actually, he's the one who's been hiding the deepest part of the Ino-Shika-Cho trio?

Just as her mind was racing, Akimichi Chomon solemnly gave her the answer: "You must have heard me say we should be nicer to the prisoners, so you're trying to trick me into sharing the limited-edition potato chips with you, right?!"

"..."

The air suddenly fell silent.

Shaziyi froze completely, her eyes going blank.

She even doubted whether she had misheard.

no……

I went to all this trouble, flirting with you, using my beauty to seduce you, and enduring all the shame to put on this act for so long.

So, your final conclusion was that I was trying to trick you out of your potato chips?!

And these are limited edition potato chips?!

At this moment, for the first time, the look in Saji's eyes when she looked at Akimichi Choman was no longer anger, no longer humiliation, and no longer murderous intent.

Instead, they remained silent.

She finally understood.

What is the most terrifying thing about Konoha?

It's not ninjutsu, not genjutsu, and not a bloodline limit.

Rather... these people's brain circuits are simply not normal!

Timon clutched the bag of potato chips tightly and moved back a little, looking wary.

"Give up, this flavor is discontinued, I can't even bear to eat more of it myself." After saying that, he thought for a moment and added, "Besides, the look you gave me just now was too obvious. I could tell at a glance that you weren't eyeing me, but my potato chips."

Shazi: "..."

She slowly closed her eyes.

I hope Konoha Village will be destroyed soon.

"Let's go, Timon."

Three days into the mountains, the mountain dweller peeked in from outside the door, his strange expression sweeping over Sachi and Timon, who was clutching potato chips.

"The captain told us to take these two men to wait for him outside the village. After he finished reporting to His Highness, he set off back to the village."

"oh oh.."

Akimichi Choman quickly stuffed the last few potato chips into his mouth, opened the cage, picked up the two of them, one in each hand, and hurried out of the room.

As the two men led the prisoners out of the inn and arrived outside the village, they saw Hinata Seiran already waiting there quietly.

"Captain, aren't you...?"

Shan Zhong paused for three days, looked back at the inn, and then looked at Hinata Seiran.

Isn't this speed a bit too fast?

"I sent my shadow clone."

Hinata Seiran rubbed his shoulders and looked at the two people Timon was carrying: "Timon, can you still hold on?"

"Hehe, no problem."

Akimichi Choman held one in each hand, his smile simple and honest.

"Then head back to the village at full speed."

Hinata Seiran nodded and took the lead, heading towards the Land of Fire.

Two days later, the group finally arrived in Konoha.

"The side effects of the Divine Pursuit...do they last this long?"

"Are the side effects of using God's Pursuit really that severe...?"

Hinata Seiran held Saji in his right hand, feeling a dull ache and fatigue spreading throughout his body.

I thought two days would be enough for my body to adapt, but every time I exerted force, my muscles and meridians were still silently protesting.

"Your name is Hinata Aohara... right?"

Shazi spoke weakly. She hadn't eaten a single grain of rice in the past two days and had intended to go on a hunger strike, but instead, her mouth was forcibly opened and water was poured down her throat.

After entering Konoha Village, the tape over her mouth had been removed.

"You're only just finding out my name?"

Hyuga Seiran walked into the village without changing his expression, amidst the astonished gazes of the villagers at the village entrance. He told Santen Yamanaka and Choman Akimichi to go and rest first, while he carried the two prisoners and headed straight for the Hokage Building.

"Why is your Lightning Release armor purple?"

Shazi forced herself to lift her eyelids and asked the question that had been suppressed for a long time.

It's one thing if a member of the Hyuga branch family can use the Kaiten technique.

After all, according to their intelligence, the Hyuga clan leader's younger brother was also from a branch family and could also use the Kaiten method.

But this person in front of me can even master the Lightning Release armor of the Hidden Cloud Village, and it even has a strange purple color...

It is more powerful and faster than the orthodox Lightning Release Armor.

If she hadn't been constantly watching Dekayi's fight, she wouldn't have been captured so easily by the Ino-Shika-Cho trio.

"Hehehe..."

Hinata Seiran chuckled softly a few times, but did not answer.

"As prisoners of war, they should have the self-awareness of prisoners of war."

"You'd better confess everything honestly now."

"Otherwise... things won't be so easy from now on."

Having said that, he quickened his pace and steadily headed towards the Hokage Building.

-

The bright sunlight pierced through the clouds, caressed the majestic Hokage Rock, and slanted into the windows of the Hokage Building.

At this moment, a pleasant atmosphere filled the Hokage's office.

Because behind the desk, the person wearing the Hokage hat wasn't Hiruzen Sarutobi, but...

Danzo Shimura.

"Heh heh heh... Hiruzen, it seems I'll have to make the move after all..."

Danzo Shimura muttered to himself, his voice filled with barely suppressed smugness.

He stroked the alliance agreement in his hand, which came from the Land of Rain and bore the seal of Hanzo the Salamander.

I had thought that this trip to the Land of Rain to persuade Hanzo to send troops to jointly resist the alliance of Iwagakure and the other vassal states would be a difficult tug-of-war.

Unexpectedly, the process went much more smoothly than anticipated.

"If things continue like this, then I might not need to support Orochimaru at all..."

"I might as well give it a try for the position of Fourth Hokage..."

Danzo thought to himself with a smug satisfaction.

Currently, he is merely acting as Hokage alongside two other advisors, guarding the village.

But this was enough to make Danzo, who had longed for this position for many years, very happy.

He firmly believed that once he had the first opportunity to become an agent, there would be a second, a third...

Until that position rightfully belonged to him.

By then, his goal will have been achieved...

Do not……

Danzo's gaze gradually returned to calm.

We still need to wait for the right opportunity; we must find the moment to strike decisively.

Moreover, the side effects of interstitial cells are still significant.

Danzo looked down at his right arm, which was brimming with life.

It seems we'll still have to rely on Orochimaru for a while.

"Terai, have the Uchiha or other clans in the village been up to any trouble lately?"

The ninja named Terai knelt on one knee and respectfully reported, "Lord Danzo, although the various clans in the village are worried about the war at the front, they are all continuing to send personnel and supplies in accordance with the Hokage's arrangements before his departure."

He paused, then added, "Even the Uchiha clan hasn't shown any unusual behavior so far; on the contrary, they've been quite proactive."

"Okay, that's good."

Danzo nodded slightly, leaned back a little, and adjusted his posture, which had been sitting for a long time, to make him feel more relaxed.

"Although the village is currently in a difficult situation, under my command, the scales of victory in the Third Shinobi World War will ultimately tip in Konoha's favor..."

"Um?"

Seeing that Terai had finished his report but remained kneeling without moving, as if he still had something to say, he couldn't help but frown slightly.

"Is there anything else?"

Terai was silent for a moment, seemingly considering his words, before finally reporting in a low voice.

"Lord Danzo, there's one more thing..."

"The Hyuga clan has recently dispatched several clan ninjas to the border front in the direction of Iwagakure."

"Furthermore, this dispatch... was not formally reported at the Hokage Building."
