He's in the Marvel universe, and his first step is marrying Scarlet Witch.

Chapter 406 A Good Show (First Update)

"Nagato, that child, something must have happened."

Upon hearing the Third Hokage mention Nagato, Jiraiya's face revealed a complex expression.

After fighting Hanzo of the Salamander, the leader of the Rain Village and known as a demigod, he took three orphans from the Land of Rain as his disciples on his way back to Konoha.

They are Nagato, Yahiko, and Konan.

In his eyes, these three children were all very kind children, and their dreams were the same as his: to end the war and make the world no longer filled with hatred.

In particular, Nagato possesses the eyes of the legendary Sage of Six Paths.

Therefore, he always felt that the prophesied child in the Toad Sage's prophecy, who would change the world and end the war, was very likely Nagato.

I never expected Nagato to turn out like this. He not only almost destroyed the entire Hidden Leaf Village, but also started the Fourth Shinobi World War, destroying so many countries and villages.

This is completely contrary to their previous dreams.

"What? Ninety-five thousand ninjas! Impossible. Rain Village is such a small country. Even if they incorporated all the ninjas from the conquered country, they couldn't possibly have that many ninjas."

And that monster, what kind of monster is so powerful that it managed to defeat the Iwagakure, a village known for its defense, so quickly?

The other Jonin also began to discuss the matter in disbelief.

Ninety-five thousand ninjas? Are you kidding me? That's probably the only number of ninjas in the entire ninja world combined.

"It seems that Amegakure started this ninja war in the first place. I wish I could have killed him that day. Unfortunately, his strength was indeed very powerful. Even I could only steal one of his eyes."

Upon hearing this, Li Chuan feigned a sigh.

In reality, the 100,000 White Zetsu are not very strong. Without the enhancement from Kabuto Yakushi in the original storyline, their raw strength is not even as good as that of an average Chunin.

However, White Zetsu is proficient in disguise and transformation techniques, and unlike ordinary transformation techniques, it is a transformation technique that can even imitate chakra.

This is also why the Rain Ninja were able to quickly resolve the issues with other villages.

They transformed from White Zetsu into ninjas from the same village, ambushed and captured the enemy when they were completely unprepared, and then became the captured ninjas themselves, continuing to replace all the ninjas in the village one by one.

Therefore, their initial appearances were not the original forms of White Zetsu, but rather the forms they took when they transformed into other ninjas.

"Fifth Hokage, you don't need to blame yourself. If you hadn't taken one of his eyes, Konoha would already be a dead house by now."

Upon hearing this, the third generation quickly offered words of comfort.

Nagato, who possessed the eyes of the Sage of Six Paths, was indeed formidable. Even without revealing his true form, he nearly destroyed Konoha simply by controlling a few puppets.

Li Chuan was able to defeat those puppets, drive back Nagato, and steal one of the Sage of Six Paths' eyes, which was already quite impressive.

Li Chuan's strength has improved significantly, and he should have been able to win the fourth battle. However, he did not expect the opponent to make such a big show of force. He wonders if Li Chuan can defeat Nagato, who controls the terrifying monster, with his current strength.

"Teacher, the monster controlled by Nagato is incredibly destructive. Do you have any information about it?"

Li Chuan turned his head and looked at the Third Generation again.

The third generation, having anticipated this, took out a scroll:

"This is what the monster looks like, but unfortunately we haven't figured out what it is yet."

"This thing looks a bit like a tailed beast?"

The group of Konoha Jonin looked at the monster on the scroll with puzzled expressions on their faces.

Although they didn't recognize the monster, its bizarre and enormous body, along with the ten tails flying behind it, closely resembled the characteristics of a tailed beast.

As is widely known, there are only nine tailed beasts in total, with the Nine-Tails having the most tails. There has never been a tailed beast with ten tails.

"This is indeed a tailed beast, and the legendary Ten-Tails at that!"

At this moment, Li Chuan spoke with a serious expression.

Seeing that everyone's attention was on him, he continued:

"Actually, after I took one of Nagato's eyes, I have been sending people to investigate information about this eye that belongs to the Sage of Six Paths."

Later, the relevant records were found in an ancient book in the private collection of a nobleman in the capital.

Legend has it that thousands of years ago, the Sage of Six Paths subdued a powerful monster called the Ten-Tails and sealed it within his own body. Before his death, he feared that the monster's power would bring disaster to the world.

So he extracted the Ten-Tails' chakra, divided it into nine parts, and then hid its body on the moon.

Those nine portions of chakra are now the nine tailed beasts.

I originally thought it was just a legend, but now it seems to be true.

Nagato used the Sage of Six Paths' eyes to summon the Ten-Tails' husk back from the moon, then placed several other tailed beasts back into the Ten-Tails' husk, reviving it.

"No wonder, no wonder Akatsuki was trying to collect the Tailed Beasts all along, it turns out it was to revive the Ten-Tails."

At that moment, Jiraiya suddenly realized what was going on.

He had discovered Akatsuki's collection of information about the Tailed Beasts when he was chasing Orochimaru, but he had never understood why Akatsuki was so obsessed with capturing them.

Danzo, on the other hand, wore an unnatural expression.

He was the one who lured Hanzo to kill Akatsuki, who was then enthusiastic about peace, in order to obtain Nagato's pair of eyes belonging to the Sage of Six Paths. In the end, he was completely wiped out by a monster summoned by Hanzo.

I only just realized that the monster was actually the shell of the Ten-Tails.

"It's said that the Ten-Tails possesses world-destroying power. Add to that the 95,000 Rain Ninja who appeared out of nowhere, and the Akatsuki members, and what's to come is a tough battle for Konoha!"

Li Chuan slowly stood up, his face full of solemnity:

"Even if it's a tough battle, we have to fight it. Otherwise, if the Rain Ninja wins, the entire ninja world might be plunged into chaos."

"Then let's go all out and fight them!"

The group of Konoha Jonin stood up, filled with righteous indignation.

Even the Fifth Hokage, who could easily wipe out the Mist Ninja and Cloud Ninja, found it troublesome, which shows that the enemy was truly very powerful.

But no matter how powerful the enemy is, Konoha will not surrender.

"Very well, then let's begin the battle plan against the Rain Ninja. Notify the entire village to prepare for battle. Tomorrow, gather all the ninjas, and we will fight the Rain Ninja to the death!"

Finally, Li Chuan slammed his fist on the table and shouted encouragement.

In fact, at this point, the ninja world is basically all under his control, so forcibly unifying them wouldn't be a problem. However, doing so would inevitably lead to problems later on, because their hearts would certainly not be united.

So he wanted to put on a show with Nagato, a good show for all the ninjas in the ninja world.

It is necessary to demonstrate that he and Nagato are so powerful that they are invincible and cannot be resisted, while also ensuring that all ninjas genuinely participate in the unification of the ninja world after the event.

Instead of being subdued by force and undergoing unification unwillingly.
