A person is writing a diary in an American comic book, and Iron Man collapses at the beginning.

Chapter 335 The Third Hokage is dumbfounded: The diary is real! Orochimaru is really going to kill me!

that's it.

Naruto began to recount his story to the Third Hokage.

He practically recounted the entire spoiler from the diary to the Third Generation.

The third generation leader's reactions to the spoilers varied.

The Third Hokage dismissed some of the spoilers, even finding them absurd.

For example, Obito was supposed to be the boss of the ninja world, but he's dead, so what kind of boss is he?

The idea that Naruto and Kurama would become a loving family is just ridiculous.

How many Jinchuriki have there been since the First Hokage captured the Nine-Tails?

Konoha tried every possible method, and no one had ever been able to do it.

Let alone being loving and affectionate, it would be good enough if they could at least slightly reduce the Nine-Tails' hostility.

It's not just the Nine-Tailed Fox.

Looking across the entire ninja world, it seems that apart from the old monk from Sunagakure and Killer Bee from Kumogakure, no one else can coexist peacefully with the tailed beasts.

Moreover, in the Third Hokage's eyes, tailed beasts have always been weapons.

Just focus on mastering and utilizing it; why bother with all that useless stuff?

Besides, given Naruto's brains and personality, it's even more of a joke.

It's a miracle that Kurama didn't kill Naruto with a single slap!

As for the Infinite Tsukuyomi, which could supposedly affect the entire ninja world, the Third Hokage found it increasingly absurd.

This refers to the entire ninja world!

How could such a technique exist?

That's just bragging without even thinking.

Let alone the First Generation, even if the legendary Sage of Six Paths were reincarnated, it would be impossible for him to do such a thing.

There are also things like the Ten-Tailed Fox.

There are only nine tailed beasts in the ninja world, that's common knowledge. When did a tenth one appear?

It's utterly absurd.

This information made the Third Hokage increasingly suspicious of the so-called "prediction of the future".

I became increasingly disbelieving.

They thought it was all just a way to fool kids like Naruto.

However, even if he doubted the authenticity of some intelligence, the Third Hokage did not dare to take it too lightly.

Instead, it was given a certain degree of importance.

such as.

"Orochimaru and Sunagakure have reached a secret agreement?"

The third generation's expression began to turn serious.

According to Naruto's account, Orochimaru and Sunagakure planned to cause trouble during the Chunin Exams.

As mentioned before, he was killed by Orochimaru during the Chunin Exams.

So, is Naruto's mysterious thing saying that Orochimaru and Sunagakure will kill him during the Chunin Exams?

Is this the Konoha Crush Plan?

The Third Hokage naturally couldn't believe something that was completely without any evidence.

However, as the leader of the village, the Third Hokage could not completely ignore this bombshell information.

After all, Naruto was hit by a technique that the entire Hidden Village couldn't understand. It couldn't have been just something to tease Naruto, right?

Although much of the information above seemed absurd to the Third Hokage, the information regarding the Konoha Crush Plan was something he would rather believe than not.

If it's fake, it's harmless, but what if it's real?

Wouldn't that be a total mess?

If there's even the slightest possibility of this happening, we absolutely must be on guard!

Not to mention.

Among those many seemingly unreliable pieces of information, there are actually some that are quite accurate.

such as.

When Orochimaru defected from Konoha, he definitely held back.

That's right, Orochimaru was released by the Third Hokage himself; the old man ultimately couldn't bear to see his student perish.

There was no one else around during the battle with Orochimaru.

Orochimaru killed all the ANBU ninjas present, and Enma was his own summoning beast.

So no one else knew that he let Orochimaru go.

For example, he also knew about Danzo's plot to exterminate the Uchiha clan long ago.

They even made prior arrangements, relocating the secret service to other locations to coordinate with Danzo's actions.

This matter was known only to Hiruzen Sarutobi.

Of course.

This is different from letting Orochimaru go. After all, everyone is not stupid, and many people can vaguely guess what's going on.

The key question is, who would dare to bring up such a sensitive matter?

Taking all these factors into account, the Third Generation Emperor pondered for a moment and then made a decision.

Putting aside other intelligence, the fact that Orochimaru and Sunagakure are working together to cause trouble is something we must be wary of.

"Someone come here!"

After sending Naruto away, the Third Hokage immediately summoned the Anbu ninjas.

An order was issued to investigate the matter.

"yes!"

The ANBU ninja immediately obeyed and left, and a series of actions began to be carried out swiftly, which goes without saying.

Unfortunately.

Orochimaru and Sunagakure's conspiracy was a secret plot; they even managed to kill the Kazekage without Sunagakure discovering it until much later.

This matter is not so easy to investigate.

In addition, there is only one month left until the Chunin Exams, which is still very tight.

So despite the passing days, Konoha has not found any useful clues.

The Third Hokage also began to busy himself with preparations for the Chunin Exams and other related matters, gradually putting this matter out of his mind.

As for Naruto?

After carrying out several more missions to catch cats and dogs, she, Sasuke, and Sakura, led by Kakashi, went to the Land of Waves.

They carried out the mission of protecting the bridge-building expert, experiencing their first truly dangerous life-or-death battle.

We both grew a lot.

Naruto, in particular, not only possesses strength but also broadens his horizons, learning about "little-known facts" such as the Sharingan and bloodline limits.

Each of them reaped a great reward.

After Team 7 returned in triumph, Konoha Village gradually became lively again.

Ninjas from Sunagakure and other ninja villages arrived in Konoha one after another.

They came to participate in the Chunin Exams held by Konoha.

Zhou Cheng, who had been staying in Konoha for more than half a month and was planning to leave, quickly changed his mind after seeing this situation.

"The Chunin Exams are about to begin!"

"This is a major event in the Naruto world!"

Seeing the new faces appearing on the street, Zhou Cheng's interest was completely piqued.

What's there to hesitate about?

Zhou Cheng immediately changed his mind and decided to stay in the world of Naruto for a while longer.

Since we've encountered such a grand event, we can't afford to miss it.

He then continued to stroll around Konoha Village as if nothing had happened.

Because he lowered his profile considerably, Zhou Cheng became virtually invisible in Konoha.

As long as he doesn't deliberately cause any big commotion, everyone subconsciously ignores him.

The villagers no longer paid attention to Zhou Cheng because of his unfamiliar face, and the secret police paid even less attention to him.

That was incredibly carefree and relaxed.

"Hey kid, are you looking to die?!"

As Zhou Cheng leisurely walked to a corner, a sharp voice caught his attention.

Zhou Cheng looked in the direction of the sound and saw a guy dressed in a very unconventional style, carrying a puppet figure wrapped in white cloth on his back, lifting up a small child.

He had a fierce look on his face.

"This is... Kankuro!"

Zhou Cheng immediately recognized the person who had come.

That was none other than Kankuro, one of the three members of the Sunagakure trio.

As for the child Kankuro was holding, that was naturally Konohamaru, the grandson of the Third Hokage.

It turns out that Konohamaru accidentally bumped into Kankuro and was caught by Kankuro.

It wasn't just the Sand Village trio; Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura were also there.

The atmosphere at the scene instantly became tense and oppressive.

"Damn it, let him go!"

When Naruto saw Konohamaru being captured, he immediately rushed over to teach Kankuro a lesson, but was easily defeated.

He made a complete fool of himself.

On the contrary, Sasuke put on a show as always, defeating Kankuro with a small pebble.

This immediately caught Gaara's attention.

The conflict between the two sides quickly passed, and everyone went home afterward, with no one giving Zhou Cheng, who was just watching the drama unfold, a second glance.

"I'm getting more and more excited!"

Zhou Cheng's eyes grew brighter and brighter. In the eyes of ordinary people, only a few ninjas like Gaara came from Sunagakure.

But Zhou Cheng knew that a large group of ninjas from Sunagakure had come and were already lying in ambush outside Konoha.

They will launch an attack on Konoha as soon as the plan to destroy Konoha begins.

hum.

Zhou Cheng immediately released his Observation Haki, enveloping the entire Hidden Leaf Village and all the surrounding ninjas.

However, to Zhou Cheng's surprise, he did not sense any of the Sand Village ninjas.

Apart from Gaara and a few other genin who participated in the exam, the only people from Sunagakure were Maki and some other members of the delegation.

"I understand, it is indeed a bit early now."

After just one moment of contemplation, Zhou Cheng understood what was going on.

It seems that there was a full month between the two Chunin Exams.

Setting up an ambush now is indeed a bit early.

Zhou Cheng understood, so he focused his Observation Haki on the Kazekage more closely.

Sure enough, it was discovered that the guy was no longer the Kazekage.

It's Orochimaru!

At this very moment, the Third Hokage was leading some of Konoha's high-ranking officials to personally receive Orochimaru.

"Lord Fengying, you have come from afar; you must be tired from your journey."

The third generation greeted "Rasa" with a gentle expression.

"This is the Chunin Exams jointly organized by our two villages, so naturally I had to come in person."

"Rasa" showed no signs of anything amiss, exchanging pleasantries with the Third Hokage with unparalleled wisdom.

"Lord Fengying, everyone, please come in!"

After a few brief words, the Third Generation personally led "Rasa" and his group inside.

He personally made sure that "Luo Sha" and his group were settled in.

"Lord Fengying, please let me know immediately if you have any requests."

"Now, please take a short break."

After leaving those words to the Kazekage and his group, the Third Hokage left with several high-ranking officials from Konoha.

"Teacher, it's been so long!"

What the Third Hokage couldn't have imagined was that after he left, a chilling smile appeared on the face beneath the "Kazekage's" mask.

A tongue even stuck out and licked its lips, like a venomous snake!

What Orochimaru could never have imagined was that after the Third Hokage left, he asked Yamanaka Inoichi a question with an extremely solemn expression.

"How is it?"

"Any discoveries?"

The third generation leader stared at Yamanaka Inoichi with a very serious expression.

"He's not the Kazekage!"

"His chakra is completely different from the Kazekage's!"

"Although he has almost completely contained his chakra, no one can completely contain it!"

Yamanaka Inoichi spoke with great certainty and emphasis.

That's right.

This is precisely the real reason why the Third Hokage specifically brought Yamanaka Inoichi along to receive the Kazekage!

According to information revealed by Naruto, Orochimaru, in conjunction with Sunagakure, launched the Konoha Crush plan and killed the Kazekage!

That's why the Third Hokage specifically brought Yamanaka Inoichi, a top-tier sensory ninja, with him as a test.

Surprisingly, they actually made a discovery!

Are you sure?

The Third Hokage's expression suddenly changed, and his eyes were fixed on Yamanaka Inoichi.

"I'm sure!"

Yamanaka Inoichi gave an affirmative answer.

Konoha and Sunagakure clashed many times during the Third Shinobi World War, and Yamanaka Inoichi, as a senior who had survived the Third Shinobi World War, was no stranger to Rasa.

Rasa could sense the type of chakra the opponent possessed with a single sensory perception.

"In other words, this Wind Shadow is fake!"

The third generation was completely unsettled.

The Wind Shadow is fake!

The Wind Shadow was actually fake!

What does this tell us?

Could it be that the information Naruto told him was true, and that Orochimaru really did kill the Kazekage?

Is Orochimaru really planning to kill himself in this Chunin Exam?

To carry out his plan to destroy Konoha?

The Third Generation's breathing began to become heavy.

"What exactly does Sunagakure want? Why did they send a fake Kazekage?"

"If the Kazekage really can't come, he could have just told us. Why send a fake one?"

As soon as Yamanaka Inoichi's voice rang out, he immediately sensed something unusual.

It's one thing that the Kazekage is fake, but the key point is that the Hokage seems to have known all along and had him sense it beforehand.

What exactly happened?

"Lord Hokage, do you know something?"

Yamanaka Inoichi couldn't help but ask the Third Generation.

"I can't be sure right now."

The Third Hokage pondered for a moment, but did not tell Yamanaka Inoichi the truth. Instead, he gave Yamanaka Inoichi an order: "The sensory team must be on high alert and keep an eye on the every move of all the Sand Village ninja."

"Also, check if any other Sand Village ninjas have infiltrated."

Yamanaka Ino's expression immediately changed: "Is Sunagakure planning something against Konoha?"

What the hell?

How many years have passed since World War III?

Moreover, Konoha and Sunagakure are now allies!

We shouldn't be so provocative.

"It's uncertain right now, which is why we need your perception team," the Third Hokage instructed Yamanaka Inoichi.

"clear."

"I'll arrange it right now!"

The matter was of great importance, and Yamanaka Inoichi dared not be negligent in the slightest, so he immediately turned around and left in a hurry.
