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

Do not break or stand!

At this time, Konoha needs warriors and fighters.

Why should we just stand by and watch the Konoha leadership keep backing down, apologizing, and making amends?!

Why should we just stand by and watch Lord Hizashi die?

"kill!!!"

Hiashi Hyuga's eyes were slightly red as he watched the Root ninjas pouring out of the Root organization's base.

He ripped off his upper garment and rolled his eyes.

The first one rushed over.

"kill!!!"

The Hyuga clan ninjas roared in unison and followed behind Hyuga Hiashi.

Use Shattered Shadow Rock as your signal!

The flames of war instantly engulfed the entire Hidden Leaf Village.

"Konoha, ruled by the dark upper echelons, is not our home."

"What use is the Will of Fire if we've lost our home?"

"I am going to my death for the rebirth of Konoha. No female ninja in Konoha has yet shed blood for the reborn Konoha. It should start with me."

In front of the Shimura clan.

"The history of Konoha is about to be rewritten, starting today, in two pages!"

"Victory is certain!"

"Victory is certain!!"

"Behind us are your Aburame! Your Inuzuka! Your Akimichi! Our Nara and your Yamanaka!"

Rumbling--

"Brothers, take down the Shimura clan within an hour!"

"Kill them!!!"

"Don't stop! Beat them all to death!"

On the other side, in front of the Sarutobi clan, the true number one ninja village of Konoha, who had profited from the blood of countless people.

A large number of wandering ninjas were driven back.

They really grew up eating human blood buns.

These wandering ninjas were no match for them.

Watching the ninjas retreat in defeat and lose their fighting spirit.

Zabuza stepped forward, his eyes now bloodshot with rage.

"So what if we lost?"

"It's not like we haven't lost before!"

"You all better keep going, you son of a bitch!"

"Even if you're the last one left, you have to keep fighting!"

"Reinforcements will arrive soon!"

As Zabuza finished speaking, a Kusagakure ninja who had successfully retreated slammed his headband to the ground.

"The newly reborn Konoha will surely be infused with fresh blood."

"I must kill the enemy and earn merit!"

"I won't let my descendants suffer like I did!"

"Kill them!"

He took the lead, and in an instant, countless wandering ninjas rallied their forces!

......

"What happened in Konoha?"

"Otogakure, Sunagakure... and these wandering ninjas... what's going on?"

Obito, wearing a vortex mask, looked at the White Zetsu beside him.

Then, turning his gaze to the destroyed Hokage Rock, he said in a deep voice:

"Akatsuki has sent word that the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki is a powerful genjutsu ninja, possessing genjutsu comparable to Itachi Uchiha."

"White Zetsu, what are you doing?"

"Is there some force influencing you?"

Obito looked at the White Zetsu in front of him.

I discovered it, and shortly after I came out, I inexplicably started having convulsions all over my body.

"Aww!!!"

White Zetsu suddenly let out a strange cry.

Obito's brain went blank for a moment.

Then, somewhat displeased, he asked:

"White Zetsu, what's wrong with you?"

However, White Zetsu was no longer listening to Obito's words at this moment.

Its eyes were fixed on Naruto in the distance.

His body trembled more and more violently.

"Aww!!!"

He let out another strange cry.

Lady Kaguya? Mother of the Divine Tree?

No...none of those!

Ah ~

Such a warm power...like the sun, it makes me want to get closer, want to surrender...

"I can't take it anymore!"

White Zetsu grabbed Obito by the neck.

Obito was completely dumbfounded.

"Let go! Don't make such a loud noise!"

However, Bai Jue completely ignored him.

He raised his other arm and waved it wildly at Naruto.

"Naruto-sama!!!"

White Zetsu roared, then tightened his grip on Obito's neck.

"Obito is here... Ah~!"

click-

The White Zetsu's head was twisted off.

"Divine Might".

Whoosh whoosh—

After a spatial fluctuation, Obito left Konoha.

Bai Zetsu's unusual behavior made him frown.

Why did they suddenly betray us?

"Naruto Uzumaki..."

the other side.

"You go up there, you go down there, protect all the ninja leaders!"

"The rest of you, come with me to protect the daimyo!"

Three teams of ANBU ninja gathered together.

Shinnosuke glanced at the high platform, gritted his teeth, and immediately made the team assignments.

He himself planned to lead the strongest squad of ANBU ninjas to protect the daimyo.

And that was shortly after their operation began.

The Wind Shadow's guards rushed out.

"Get out of here!"

Shinnosuke and the captains of the other two teams attacked simultaneously.

The barrage of fire instantly wiped out the Wind Shadow Guards.

Just then, smoke filled the air on the high platform.

whoosh-

Two figures flew out at lightning speed.

Orochimaru has cornered the ninja bear on the roof.

Upon seeing this, Shinnosuke was shocked and was about to give chase.

But at that moment, two ANBU ninja squad leaders appeared on his left and right sides.

A surprise attack!

puff-

One from the left and one from the right, the kidneys were stabbed right through.

"You...you guys?"

"Shinnosuke, give up the fight."

A squad leader raised his hand and delivered a chop to the ground.

Shinnosuke then fainted.

"The operation has begun, let's hurry and complete the mission!"

"yes!"

"Disperse—"

whoosh-

On the rooftop, Orochimaru watched Hiruzen Sarutobi's shocked expression.

He glanced at the war-torn Konoha.

He couldn't help but let out a cold laugh.

"Let's do it!"

Suddenly, his laughter stopped abruptly, and an order was given.

The four Wind Shadow Guards vanished using the Instantaneous Movement Technique.

When they reappeared, they were already at the four corners of the roof.

He tore off his Wind Shadow Guard uniform.

The four people formed hand seals simultaneously.

"Ninja Art: Four Purple Flame Formation!" x4

The four people's voices and movements were completely synchronized.

The moment my hands slapped the roof.

A purple cube-shaped barrier with four people at the four corners appeared.

It covered the entire roof at an extremely fast speed.

One of the ANBU ninjas was faster and rushed over.

Upon seeing the Four Purple Flame Formation appear, he took out a kunai from his ninja tool bag in mid-air.

Ding--

The kunai thorn was on the Four Purple Flame Array.

The ANBU ninja was instantly thrown back.

At the same time, a flame appeared on his body.

boom--

In the blink of an eye, the ANBU ninja was engulfed in purple flames.

"ah--!!!"

A piercing scream rang out.

Finally, he collapsed with a thud and never got up again.

"Damn it!"

"It's actually the Four Purple Flame Formation!"

The ANBU ninjas who were guarding the surrounding area arrived.

Upon seeing the ANBU ninja engulfed in purple flames, they could only angrily stop in their tracks.

They were unaware that the number of ANBU ninjas was rapidly decreasing.

Why should the ANBU ninjas who have contributed so much to the village have a lower status than a Chunin?

Why should I?!

They both died fighting for their village, yet they can't even leave their names behind...

Meanwhile, on another rooftop, Kakashi, Might Guy, and the imprisoned Jiraiya were present.

Take everything that happens into view.

Jiraiya saw the true forms of the four Kazekage guards.

His pupils suddenly contracted, and his body trembled uncontrollably.

Orochimaru?

Why...why him?

What is Orochimaru going to do?

whoosh-

At this moment, the Hidden Sound Village ninjas, who had been hiding in the shadows, made their move.

They surrounded Kakashi and his two companions immediately.

On another rooftop, Kurenai Yuhi and her two companions were also surrounded by Otogakure ninjas.

"Hehe, Hong, you should get some rest. Leave things to me and Xiyan!"

Konoha was in complete chaos.

After casting a large-scale illusion, Kabuto Yakushi appeared in front of Ino.

"It seems you're the one who used illusion magic."

Ino exited the telepathic state and glanced at the appearing Yakushi Kabuto.

"I never imagined you had mastered the secret techniques of the mountain clan to this extent."

Kabuto's gaze turned cold.

Tenten shielded Ino behind her, showing no sign of panic.

"I heard you've been hiding your true strength?"

"You're gathering chakra in your hands, are you planning to use this?"

"Chakra scalpel?"

"How could this be?!"

Yakushi Kabuto was shocked.

On the rooftop, Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at the war-torn Konoha and the chaotic examination hall.

His brow furrowed. "Otogakure ninja?"

His gaze returned to the Fourth Kazekage before him.

I already had a guess in my mind.

During the second exam in the Forest of Death.

Mitarashi Anko came to report the news of Orochimaru's appearance.

Two teams of ANBU ninja were also dispatched at the time.

As a result, both teams were dispatched, but they failed to find Orochimaru.

He had considered that his prized disciple might choose to make a move today.

Therefore, he also set up a tight defense.

Unexpectedly, Orochimaru still managed to find an opening.

However... it's possible that someone entrusted the guard layout to Orochimaru.

"Danzo..."

Renkuma closed his eyes in pain.

But soon, he took a deep breath and fixed his gaze on Orochimaru.

Now is not the time to think about these things.

The problems at hand have not yet been solved.

"I didn't expect Sunagakure to agree to join forces with you and attack Konoha, which is an ally."

Off the field.

Genji Shiranui stopped Sasuke, who had exhausted his chakra.

Looking at Gaara, he said, "The Chunin Exams are over, you should go and take refuge as soon as possible."

The spectator stands at the back.

Shikamaru, Neji, and Shino stood up at the same time.

Choji and Kiba Inuzuka also arrived.

The five of them walked out of the lounge at the same time.

"Hmph, Sasuke really showed off."

"We can't fall behind, Akamaru!"

"Woof!"

"Neji, go get Sasuke. We'll go up and help first."

Shikamaru said one sentence and then led the three of them away from the wall.

Neji approached Sasuke.

"Uchiha Sasuke, you are very strong."

"Is that even a question?"

Erzhuzi rolled his eyes, too exhausted even to snort.

When Genma Shiranui saw Neji arrive, she handed Sasuke over to him.

"I'm going to join up with Nami and Ivahi."

After saying that, he formed a hand seal and used his teleportation ability to leave.

Gaara looked up at the dark clouds that had not yet dispersed from the sky.

Suddenly, a hole appeared in the dark clouds.

Sunlight streamed through, and a beam of light fell on Naruto's forehead.

Only then did he realize that his older sister and brother were waiting for him in the stands.

"Sand Instantaneous Body".

As soon as he finished speaking, Gaara's physical body turned into sand at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In the blink of an eye, they arrived at the spectator stands.

"Maki, don't move from Sunagakure. Have them all assemble."

Maki paused for a moment, looked at Gaara's expressionless face, and then gave the signal to assemble with satisfaction.

"It's none of our business!"

"We, the Hidden Sand Village, have withdrawn!"

Kankuro quickly said to Naruto.

"Then how come you have so many people?"

At that moment, Asma arrived.

But the next moment, he felt that the world in front of him had undergone a tremendous change.

"Asuma, Sunagakure is an ally of Konoha. They were not involved in this plan, so this matter has nothing to do with them."

hum-

In the world of Tsukuyomi, Asuma was stabbed through the heart.

A second later, back in the real world, he collapsed to the ground, convulsing.

"Why not just kill him?"

Just then, a childish voice rang out.

Looking down, he saw a cute little girl with rolled eyes approaching and tugging at his trouser leg with her tiny hand.

"firework!"

Hinata quickly picked up Hanabi.

"We're not killing him because he's still useful, and besides, his life has already been decided."

After saying that, Naruto looked at Maki and Gaara.

"So, Fifth Kazekage, what are you going to do now?"

Gaara's eyes widened slightly.

Maki instantly understood, kneeling down on one knee before Gaara, "Kazekage-sama!"

Temari and Kankuro also rushed forward.

The Sand Village ninjas who were still gathering were all stunned.

But then he glanced at the rooftop, and then at Gaara.

They immediately knelt on one knee, "Lord Kazekage!"

After a while, a large group of Sunagakure ninjas were kneeling behind Gaara.

"Naruto, our Sand Village has no intention of being enemies with the newly reborn Leaf Village."

Then, Gaara took a deep breath, and the perpetual icy expression on his face melted away.

"Get up. From now on, you no longer need to perform this kind of curtsy."

"Our allies are the newly reborn Konoha, and our enemies are the Konoha of the old era."

"Maki, you lead the team to help the newly reborn Konoha."

"Yes, Lord Kazekage!"

Maki responded and waved his hand at a large group of Sand Ninja.

Everyone disappeared from their original spot at the same time.

"What does 'Sunagakure' mean?"

"Are you going to betray the Fourth Kazekage?!"

Dou suddenly shouted sharply.

Gaara glanced at the battered and bruised Kabuto Yakushi.

"The Fourth Kazekage is dead. I am the newly reborn Fifth Kazekage of Sunagakure. The one above is nothing but an imposter."

Yakushi Kabuto's eyes widened.

At this moment, the girls, including Tian Tian, ​​who had been chasing after the pharmacist, were also taken aback.

Sasuke, Neji, and the others who were gathering with Naruto were also taken aback.

"The Godaime Kazekage?"

Their gazes lingered on Gaara for a moment, then they all looked at Naruto.

"Why are you looking at me? I'm not the Fifth Hokage."

Taking advantage of this moment, the pharmacist ran away.

Tenten wanted to chase after him, but Naruto stopped her.

"Ignore him, let him go. Once he's had enough, we'll bring him back to be the orphanage director."

At that moment, Gaara stepped forward and extended his hand.

"Naruto Uzumaki, as the Fifth Kazekage, I am once again forging an alliance with Konoha."

"We'll talk about that later."

Naruto took his hand.

Shukaku's chakra surged in.

"You filthy fox! Get your ass over here for a meeting!"

"Shut up, I'm settling accounts, get out of my way!"

Hey~

Your meeting request has been denied.

Shukaku: "..."

Orochimaru!

"How long are you going to keep wearing that outfit?"

The bear's eyes were icy cold.

"Hehehe~"

"Has it been discovered already?"

"Heh, these people from Sunagakure really can't be relied on."

"However... they were able to realize something was wrong so quickly..."

Orochimaru shook his head, raised his hand, and ripped off the human skin mask, revealing his true face.

Countless Sunagakure ninjas showed their anger.

Orochimaru!

Clearly, the moment Orochimaru revealed his true form.

This effectively confirms the death of the Fourth Kazekage.

"Well... without the help of Sunagakure, Sunagakure even turned around and killed you."

"Everyone from Otogakure, you must be drenched in sweat, right?"

Kakashi's indifferent voice rang out.

Matt Kai struggled to get up from the ground.

"Youth! Passion!"

Ouch...ah...my back...

"Hmph, so what if the Sand Village turns against us?"

"If Lord Orochimaru wins, the situation will instantly turn around!"

"The advantage is in my hands!"

The words fell.

A loud explosion came from afar.

Everyone looked in the direction of the figure.

Then the huge three-headed snake lay on the ground.

A large amount of fresh blood gushed out.

Above the three-headed snake, Tsunade rubbed her fist.

After jumping down, he bit his finger and quickly formed hand seals.

"Kurama, lend me some chakra."

"Spiritual communication!"

boom--

From the white smoke's body appeared a slug that was a size larger than the three-headed snake.

One-fifth of the body!

"Lady Tsunade!"

The slug let out a soft call, its tone filled with surprise.

"Now is not the time for idle chatter; I'm entrusting the treatment to you."

"Slug - The Great Slug Split!"

"Yes, Lady Tsunade!"

Swah——

The slug instantly split into many smaller slugs.

Slug - Treatment for slug poisoning.

With just one-tenth of the slugs, there would be more than enough to heal an entire village of ninjas.

Moreover, now that one-fifth of the slug's body has been summoned?

However, Tsunade felt great.

Nine Lama's pretty face turned pale instantly.

"You...you...ouch..."

"I've decided... I'll take over your mountains and commercial district first..."

"You'll remember this!"
