Konoha: I, Naruto, will eat the Forest-Forest Fruit!

Rumbling--

The dust particles collided, instantly forming a white sphere of light in mid-air. All the trees and rocks covered by the sphere vanished.

call out--

The next second, the ball of light disappeared, and a circular crater appeared on the ground.

"The previous generation's Dust Release... its power is still as strong as ever."

After flying back a bit, Ōnoki came to Gaara's side.

None of the Kage from Konoha appeared this time. Tsunade was originally prepared to participate, but... so she simply decided not to participate and let the Kage from the four ninja villages handle it themselves.

"The sand's power is stronger than before... How long has it been... Why?"

Rasa gently patted the sand hand that was holding him, and the sand hand immediately shattered.

In the distance, Temari glanced at Rasa expressionlessly before pulling Kankuro back from his attack.

"Don't go. Compared to us, all these years... let Arara handle it himself."

"Ugh! Just seeing him makes me furious!"

Since Temari had said so, Kankuro had no choice but to put away the new puppet on his back.

the other side.

Hozuki Gengetsu and Terumi Mei were forced to leave the battlefield, but the power of Dust Release was still among the best in the ninja world.

"Dust Escape?"

"That old man... no, that brat, could he be... Onoki, the apprentice of that brat Muna?"

"Well, little girl, is Ōnoki still the current Tsuchikage?"

Mei Terumi nodded slightly, and Gengetsu Hozuki immediately burst into laughter.

Seeing how happy he was, Mei Terumi didn't dare to mention the Fourth Mizukage.

"drink--!!!"

On the other side, a similar scene of fatherly love and filial piety unfolded, involving two children as well.

The Fourth Raikage, A, and Killer Bee team up to fight the Third Raikage.

Punch to the flesh!

"Gaara!"

"Where is Shukaku?"

Luo Sha raised his head, frowned, and questioned her.

"ah--!!!"

"Why is this guy still so arrogant?"

"Kid, let me out, I'll beat him to a pulp!"

Shukaku couldn't stand it any longer, but Gaara calmly replied, "Gold dust counters you. If we release you, we'll be at a disadvantage."

"I know Wind Release!"

"Gold dust will restrain you."

"I still have the Tailed Beast Ball!"

"Gold dust will restrain you."

"I...you, beat him flat!"

Gaara then looked at Rasa and said expressionlessly:

"I am no longer a jinchūriki controlled by you."

"What do you mean?"

Rasa didn't expect Gaara to talk to him like that.

"I am the Fifth Kazekage, and you are the deceased Fourth Kazekage. That is my meaning."

"My sister and I are doing fine without you, and we've even made...friends!"

Kankuro: What about me?

"You... dare to talk to me like that... and you even have friends?!"

Luo Sha gritted his teeth, cold sweat pouring down his forehead.

Looking at the gourd behind Gaara, I noticed that the word "love" was also written on Gaara's sand gourd at this moment.

Luo Sha asked in surprise, "You said...you made friends?"

Even Hozuki Gengetsu couldn't stand listening to Rasa and Gaara's conversation.

While Mei Terumi was idly fighting on the sidelines, she said:

What does it mean to have no friends?

"If that's the case, wouldn't that kid be too lonely?"

"Isn't it normal for someone his age to make a few friends?"

As he spoke, Hozuki Gengetsu looked at Terumi Mei.

"Little girl, you must have many friends too, right?"

"Well... girls always have to get married when they grow up. Once they get married, they'll be distracted. You'll have to urge the Marshal and the others to choose a new Mizukage."

click-

"Age...pressure to get married..."

Mei Terumi hardened her fist.

"Lava Release: Melting Monster Technique!"

puff--

The next instant, Mei Terumi spat out a highly corrosive and sticky acid from her mouth.

Ghost Lantern Huayue:? ? ?

"I have nearly died at your hands six times."

"Each time, my fear and hatred towards you only grow stronger."

"Now, it's time for you to pay your debts."

Clearly, the Gaara we see now is not the Gaara from the original manga.

Not the kind of person who can be easily won over with a simple "I love you deeply, but I don't know how to express it, and I can't express it."

"In that case, the kid without eyebrows is quite pitiful, especially since it's all for the village... Wait, I don't think I have eyebrows either," Hozuki Gengetsu said after escaping Mei Terumi's attack.

"Hmph, you little white-bearded fellow, you're still as stupid as ever."

"Tch! Little girl, don't bother fighting me, kill that bandaged guy first!"

On the side of the Raikage, where father and son were being affectionate and filial, the Third Raikage said in a deep voice:

"He's an excellent child. The Sand Village might change. You should keep an eye on him."

"Oh~ I..."

boom--

"Shut up!" x2

boom--

Subsequently, the Third and Fourth Raikage engaged in hand-to-hand combat once again.

The Fourth Hokage replied, "Father, Konoha is now in charge, and we've also signed the Five Principles of Peace..."

"Oh? Is that so?"

"Even the First Hokage has been resurrected... After seeing this peace... Just hearing about it doesn't sound fake... That's great. Well then, A, let's make our move. You know where my weakness is."

Rasa here has her eyes closed, and memories of Gaara's birth are flooding her mind.

Then, he suddenly opened his eyes. "This Impure World Reincarnation... it seems to be a ninjutsu with some value."

"Let me prove your worth once again."

"Come on! Try to surpass me!"

Wu Yi looked at Onoki and said in a deep voice, "Onoki, stop me!"

"For me, who uses Dust Release, the number of enemies is irrelevant."

"Only you can stop me."

As soon as the words were spoken, a giant Buddha statue, along with thousands of wooden arms behind it, crossed the walls of Konoha.

Hashirama Senju and Tobirama Senju were sitting up there.

They even brought the rope tree along and leisurely brewed tea.

"It's alright, feel free to use your skills, don't hold back."

After saying that, Hashirama Senju scratched his head again, "That's not right... Dust Release is still very destructive."

"Brother, the time it takes for them to activate Dust Release is enough for me to sever their arms."

After calmly taking a sip of tea, Tobirama Senju tossed out a few kunai.

This scene is nothing new to those who frequently visit Konoha.

All four shadows widened their eyes.

This...this is a ninja of the same level?

Of course, Dust Escape is still very powerful, its only drawback is... its casting animation is too long.

Wu took a deep breath, then looked at Onoki, "I see... It seems you haven't become a stubborn old man after all."

Rumbling--

Meanwhile, Gaara and Rasa's battle has begun.

It's simply a matter of placer gold versus sand.

The moment Karura's Sand Binding appeared, Rasa fell silent.

Gaara, however, raised his hand without hesitation.

"Your mother's love for me... is incomparable!"

Upon hearing this, Luo Sha was so shocked that he was speechless.

You already know?

"Heh...failed."

"Everything I did failed. I added unnecessary burdens to you, and I presumptuously judged you as worthless, forced you to become a Jinchūriki, and took away your life and your mother."

"Shut up."

Gaara remained expressionless, his hand clenching tightly.

Boom-! ! !

Rasa's body was instantly pulverized.

the other side.

The Fourth Raikage has activated his full power state, the strongest Lightning Release Armor, with all his hair standing on end.

Killer Bee then released the eight octopus tentacles of the Eight-Tails, temporarily restricting the Third Raikage's movements.

"Lightning-Struck Horizon Chiyo Dance!"

whoosh-

The next instant, A's hand pierced through the scar on the Third Raikage's chest.

Gaara's sand also bound the powerless Third Raikage.

Meanwhile, guided by Hozuki Gengetsu, Terumi Mei easily defeated him.

Gaara once again acts as a sealing ninja.

Inside Orochimaru's abandoned base, Kabuto Yakushi sneered.

"It seems we still can't let you develop your own consciousness."

"Well... the real fun is about to begin, the God of Ninjas, Hashirama Senju?"

"It seems it's time to release that person."

At the same time, Obito also came out of his room.

He put on the Sharingan mask that he had prepared long ago.

"Pain... let's use a Jinchūriki."

After saying that, Obito passed through the wall and picked up Madara Uchiha's ninja tools.

"Ah Fei, what's been going on lately?"

Bai Jue A Fei immediately came running over, hopping and skipping.

Following Black Zetsu's instructions, he told Obito some of the details.

"Impure World Reincarnation?"

"Yakushi Kabuto... has already invaded Konoha... Heh, I didn't expect there to be someone like him in the ninja world."

Obito narrowed his eyes, a bad feeling creeping into his heart, but he quickly shook his head.

"Impossible."

"Then... let's start with the Two-Tailed Beast."

"Akatsuki is no longer reliable... The changes in the ninja world are too great, I have to take action myself."

"Before they can react, we'll collect as many tailed beasts as we can."

"Tobi, when Black Zetsu returns, tell him that the ninja world isn't chaotic enough... I will personally go and declare war on them."

"Furthermore, Naruto's abilities aren't as outrageous as you might think. Could he really make a White Zetsu betray him? One? Two? What about a thousand, ten thousand, or even a hundred thousand White Zetsu?!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a vortex of Kamui appeared in front of Obito.

......

On the other side, after another clash of Dust Release techniques, Onoki was already drenched in sweat.

Without even frowning, he completely lost control of his body.

In the blink of an eye, Wu's body vanished, as if he had disappeared through magic.

"Hurry up and call someone to sense me, or you're dead, Onoki!"

The same applies to Hozuki Gengetsu, who was sealed away; Gaara's Sand Bindings were soaked in oil.

"Summoning Jutsu... Giant Clam!"

boom--

Mei Terumi frowned slightly, but she remained calm despite her knowledge of the past Mizukage.

Moreover, Naruto's voice just echoed in her mind.

She will have the ninjas from the five great ninja villages join forces and command them.

One of the quickest ways to eliminate hatred is to join forces when facing a common enemy.

Little Mustache hasn't gone berserk yet, making him a good whetstone.

Of course, unnecessary deaths will be avoided.

In comparison, the threat posed by nothing is higher.

Under Kabuto's manipulation, Mu's target is Konoha.

Just as Mu appeared above Konoha, he had already gathered Dust Release in his hand.

whoosh-

A trident-shaped kunai flies towards you; you can't dodge it by tilting your head.

call out--

"Rasengan."

boom--

A golden figure flashed by.

Wubian swallowed the Rasengan, and his figure flew backward like a cannonball.

"I'll do it..."

"Have some tea."

"Hmm... okay."

After flying backwards, it plowed a deep pit in the ground.

boom--

The body, which had been continuously retreating, suddenly stopped.

Onoki appeared behind him, pressing one hand on his back.

"Earth Release: Weighted Rock Technique!"

boom!

"It's so heavy now that I can't even lift my arms."

After saying that, Onoki straightened his back. "Longevity is also good; you can enjoy the changes."

click-

"My back...oh no...it's killing me..."

Onoki knelt down.

Little did they know, Wu had already completed the art of splitting.

On the other side, all the ninjas from various villages who had come to Konoha, as well as the new Konoha ninjas, had gathered.

"Temari-neechan, shall we fight too?"

"Huh? Can we?"

Temari gave the two a loving punch, saying, "You're not even ninjas yet. If you keep this up, you don't need to come to Konoha to study."

"Seriously, Masaki, you have a good eye on those two."

Having said that, he and Kankuro rushed to the battlefield.

Snapped--

In the distance, Wu crouched down, forming a hand seal with one hand while placing the other hand on the ground.

"Spiritual communication!"

Rumbling--

A coffin broke out of the ground.

click-

After a sharp crack, a crack appeared in the middle of the coffin lid.

His pupils suddenly contracted.

As a sensory ninja, he immediately sensed the terrifying chakra inside the coffin.

whoosh-

Without a second thought, he immediately moved away from directly in front of the coffin.

Rumble—!!!

The moment Wu left, a terrifying power erupted from the coffin, and countless plumes of white smoke shot out.

thump—

A gloved hand gripped the coffin, and a figure slowly emerged.

"The day has finally come."

"Nagato has really grown up."
