Naruto: Starting from Eating the Gold Fruit

Chapter 684 Memory Recovery X Don't Die Too Soon

Even if one's perception is altered, reality is still different from the false illusion.

For the residents of Konoha Village's inner city, the name Yua is their god.

Now, the god in their hearts has been erased and replaced with other related information.

But what is false will always remain false.

The residents of Konoha Village's inner castle began to realize that something was wrong.

them……

I forgot someone...

A very important person...

Yuya...

Who is it?

Why do we feel a sense of disorientation just from hearing this name?

The Otsutsuki Shibaju were all dumbfounded.

This was the first time he had ever seen something like this.

What kind of person could remain so deeply etched in the hearts of others even after their death?

Otsutsuki Shibaki didn't know, and he didn't want to know.

For him, the decision to erase everything else, including the information about that guy named Youya, would be far too hasty.

Otsutsuki Shibaju regretted it a little.

Yes, he regretted it.

He shouldn't have simply eliminated Youya's existence entirely.

He should... replace everyone's impression of Yuya with his own.

However, from God's perspective, it's clear that this method is useless.

Because not everyone likes Yuya.

If Otsutsuki Shibakai did that, he would only be exposed faster.

In short, things took a turn for the better after the first person mentioned Yuya.

Yuya never expected that he could still save Konoha Village after he died.

This scene greatly excited Hashirama Senju.

He hugged Youya with immense joy, but thankfully Youya immediately pushed his face away, otherwise he would have been kissed...

It's simple why Hashirama Senju is so excited.

Once someone discovers that their cognition has been altered, they can more quickly restore the altered past for others because they have the altered cognition of their past.

I can only say that I gained experience after being modified, which is...

Ultimately, things took a turn for the better when the exceptionally intelligent Nara Shikamaru discovered that his perception had been altered.

During a chase, Nara Shikamaru made contact with Naruto and Sasuke.

Nara Shikamaru said, "In my memory, you are thugs who intend to destroy the village, but your strength and what you have done do not seem to be what you want to destroy Konoha."

Moreover, I always feel that my memories have been tampered with.

Forget it, this is too much trouble. I'm not suited to doing this kind of thing, so I'll just say it directly.

"Would you like to work together?"

Nara Shikamaru's words invigorated Naruto, Sasuke, and the others.

They're not incapable of handling pressure, but you can't expect them to withstand physical pressure—being hunted by a bunch of people—while also having to endure mental pressure—being seen by a group of people as the mastermind behind the destruction of Konoha...

If I had that idea, the village would be gone by now!

Naruto and Sasuke have been quite wronged lately.

Fortunately, they now have companions.

Although this companion did not regain his memory, it doesn't matter. Or rather, it is precisely because Nara Shikamaru did not regain his memory but chose to stand on their side that it is even more touching.

At least for the two of them, who were already on edge, they were overjoyed that Nara Shikamaru wanted to cooperate with them.

At least it's a comfort in terms of spirit.

And once there was a first, there was a second.

Thus, a single spark can start a prairie fire.

Two years later, Sasuke and Naruto had corrected many people's perceptions.

If they didn't want to use Konoha's inner city as a battlefield, Sasuke and Naruto could have corrected everyone's perceptions long ago.

Ultimately, this situation forced Ōtsutsuki Shibai to intervene personally.

And so, the final battle began...

Otsutsuki Shibai is very powerful, extremely powerful, and cognitive modification is not a particularly strong move for him.

It's just that it can't be used on the same person for a short period of time.

Furthermore, Sasuke and Naruto, who possess the chakra of the Sage of Six Paths, are unaffected by Shiba Inu's influence.

You can understand it as Ōtsutsuki Shibai's cognitive modification not being usable on people of the same clan.

This is a bit troublesome.

For Otsutsuki Shibaitaka, altering perceptions was never his ultimate weapon.

It's just that this method is more convenient for dealing with other people.

However, since the situation has already reached this point...

Well, there's not much more to say...

Now let's see who will ultimately emerge victorious.

……

On the border between life and death, no one is sitting and watching the screen anymore.

Sasuke and Naruto, along with the allied forces led by Shikamaru Nara and Hinata's logistical support team, engaged in battle with Shibakai Otsutsuki.

Everyone at the brink of life and death, regardless of their nationality, hoped that Sasuke and Naruto would win.

However, it can only be said that they were overthinking things...

Although Otsutsuki Shibakai's cognitive manipulation ability is abnormal, his own strength is definitely not weak.

The combined forces of Sasuke, Naruto, and Shikamaru were once routed, suffering heavy casualties.

Otsutsuki Shibaju looked at everyone indifferently and said softly, "Now, I'm giving you one last chance."

Kneel down and submit, and I may spare your lives.

The response was an attack from Sasuke and Naruto.

Shiba Inu no Otsutsuki sent the two flying, then soared into the air, looking indifferently at Naruto, Sasuke, and the others.

"Since you want to die, then I'll grant your wish."

The surging energy emanating from Otsutsuki Shibayo's body directly created a massive stone sphere large enough to block out the sun's radiance.

This is a power far greater than the power of the Six Paths, a power that is almost evolving into divine power...

Naruto and Sasuke looked utterly hopeless; they...

It's unstoppable...

However, at that moment, a figure appeared beside Naruto and placed his hand on him.

Naruto turned his head and saw Gaara, whose hair was very greasy, standing next to him and nodding.

Naruto was slightly startled, then looked at the others...

Even the Fifth Raikage, who was fighting with someone inside Kumogakure, came here on his travels.

Everyone attacked at the same time...

Then, it blocked Otsutsuki Shibakai's devastating attack...

Otsutsuki Shibai's attack was blocked, and everyone cheered as they stood on the brink of life and death.

This is a good start.

After that, everyone forgot about their deaths and even forgot which village they were from.

The only people here now are ninjas from the ninja world.

Everyone disregarded their own safety and charged straight towards the Otsutsuki Shibaju.

The difference between an ant and an elephant is indeed as vast as a chasm.

However, if there are enough ants, they can kill an elephant...

Otsutsuki Shibai was ultimately defeated.

The entire ninja world was plunged into a sea of ​​cheers.

As for those who died in this war...

After recovering, Sasuke used the Six Paths of Reincarnation Technique to revive those who died in the final battle.

But Sasuke couldn't help those who had already died.

This disaster, triggered by the Ōtsutsuki Shibaju, ultimately resulted in the deaths of millions of people.

These were all their own people who were killing each other because of Otsutsuki Shibakai's abilities.

After this war, the five great ninja villages of the ninja world immediately gathered together to discuss countermeasures.

They certainly don't want to experience that again.

Therefore, based on Yuya's original proposal for a united village, they put forward a new idea.

The United Village needs to have its own armed forces, and they must be the strongest.

only……

The proposal was put forward, but its implementation was fraught with difficulties.

Even though Hinata said it would benefit the entire ninja world, no one was willing to continue cooperating.

After all, the strength of Konoha Village was already terrifying.

If they continue to allow Konoha's top fighters to enter the Allied Villages, then in the end, it will be questionable whether the Allied Villages will still belong to them.

Therefore, it is impossible for them to agree to this proposal.

Hinata wasn't angry about this.

It can only be said that once the external pressure disappears, many people will immediately reveal their true colors.

For example, in the Hidden Cloud Village...

Yu Li was directly regarded by the villagers of Kumogakure as a scourge to the village and was voted out by them.

Travelers are numb.

During his years in office, due to the interference of elders from various ninja clans in Kumogakure, he was unable to produce any significant achievements during his travels.

However, regardless of the circumstances, Yuri led his men to personally confront Otsutsuki Shibakai.

The other ninja clan elders, however, were all extremely protective of their lives.

Based on this point alone, no one will move the traveler's location for the time being.

However, that's all.

When a protest demanding Yuuri's resignation erupted in Kumogakure, this man, who was even willing to risk his life for Kumogakure, finally grew tired.

His final decision was that he wished to be buried in the cemetery of Kumogakure (Hidden Cloud Village)...

However, the order went unanswered.

His travels left him feeling helpless, and he came to understand what it meant that reforms would inevitably encounter numerous obstacles.

The obstacles he encountered were merely internal.

However, Yuya had problems both internally and externally at the time.

Thinking about it this way, You Li inexplicably felt that his grandfather had suddenly become very powerful.

With a sigh, he finally left Kumogakure after his travels.

Given that this person was born in Kumogakure (Hidden Cloud Village), and his father was from Konoha (Hidden Leaf Village) and the son of the Hokage of Konoha, Kumogakure would never allow him to have any real power while traveling.

They act as a figurehead, then you take the blame, while we collect the bounty – that's their game.

I realized this too late after traveling.

Fortunately...

Before leaving, he came to his senses and refused the request to cooperate with Konoha Village.

He was already very tired...

As for Konoha Village...

He no longer wanted to go back, nor was he ashamed to go back.

……

In this place of life and death, Tsunade sighed helplessly as she watched this scene.

Youli's abilities are definitely not lacking. You can see that in the final battle.

But that's where the problem lies.

If he hadn't possessed the ability to travel and had simply been content to be an ordinary person or a puppet, he certainly wouldn't have reached where he is today.

It can only be said that Youli did not learn to conceal his talents like his father.

Wasn't Yuki, Yuriko's father, amazing? Although he mostly went to the fields to help people plant and water crops, his ability to force the people of Kumogakure to send him back to Konoha in just a few days was definitely not weak.

It can only be said that although You Ya didn't teach his children much, his son and grandson are definitely not bad.

Although Tsunade was puzzled by this, she was very happy to ignore it because they were her son and grandson.

Since they are all his own sons and grandsons, why bother distinguishing them so carefully?

You eventually left Kumogakure.

You Shishi watched her brother transform from a spirited young man into the lifeless figure he is today.

As the younger sister who was traveling, she felt somewhat sad.

But that's all there is to it.

It's definitely impossible for you to let her leave with you on your travels.

And not only her, but her traveling mother also wouldn't leave.

To be honest, I was dissatisfied with my mother throughout my travels.

Without a doubt, she chose her family over her own son.

If his mother had been willing to fully support him, his travels wouldn't have ended up in this state.

Of course, it's too late to say anything now.

Time never stops moving forward because of any individual's will.

The Hidden Cloud Village returned to its former tranquility.

The next step is to find someone to take office immediately, someone who can be brought under their control right away.

They don't like anyone becoming the Raikage.

Because in Kumogakure, the family must be number one.

However, this person is not an easy candidate to choose.

Ultimately, they naturally set their sights on You Shishi.

Seeing this, Yuya, caught between life and death, was speechless.

Are you trying to squeeze every last drop out of my family?

Turning to look at Tsunade, Yuya saw that she looked very calm and breathed a sigh of relief.

He was genuinely afraid that Tsunade would have a stroke if she saw this.

Even though a person is dead, their senses like touch and the five senses are still there...

Tsunade remained silent for a long time before finally slapping her thigh and saying, "I told you that woman was no good! Now she's finally showing her true colors!"

Yuya chuckled and shook his head. Tsunade really is...

Tsunade continued grumbling, saying that from now on, the most important thing when choosing a girl is her personality, and that her figure is really not important.

Yuya wanted to laugh, but Tsunade's words were indeed very reasonable; it was just that she herself didn't control herself very well.

Back when Yua and Tsunade were on a plane together, the flight attendant was extremely attentive to Yua, and Tsunade almost did something inappropriate, nearly smashing the plane to pieces with one punch.

Fortunately, it ended without any major issues.

Looking at it this way...

Youyou is definitely his own son, what a good grandson! It's just that he can't control his temper. Compared to Tsunade, he's still somewhat dissatisfied with things he doesn't like and can't seem to change.

It's just that Tsunade is polite and knows how to speak indirectly.

It's a pity about traveling...

Ugh.

Well, he's still my grandson no matter what, I can't let him become withdrawn and die so early.
