Naruto: The whole world knows I am the savior

Chapter 181 [Sasuke's] Plans: The Destruction of Iwagakure

"Uncle Sasuke, Uncle Sasuke?"

Sasuke Uchiha slowly heard someone calling him, so he struggled to open his eyes and saw Boruto making a gesture with his hand in front of him.

When he regained full consciousness, he found himself in a prison cell, while Boruto was outside bowing and apologizing to someone, explaining himself for a long time with a fawning expression.

After a while, Boruto arrived with the security team to open the cell door for Sasuke Uchiha, indicating that he could come out.

"Behave yourself. If it weren't for the Chunin Uzumaki speaking up for you, you would have been locked up for at least three months. Don't go and provoke our village's ninjas again."

The security team members reprimanded Sasuke Uchiha. They had examined him while he was unconscious but found nothing wrong. Boruto had begged Naruto Uzumaki to come and say a few kind words, which is why the security team decided to release Sasuke.

After all, Kakashi was the captain of the security force, and Naruto Uzumaki was Kakashi's former student.

"Sorry, sorry, we won't cause any more trouble. We're really sorry, haha."

After bowing and smiling apologetically once more, Boruto Uzumaki left the police force with Sasuke Uchiha.

After walking a distance away, Boruto sighed and said, "Uncle Sasuke, how did you end up capturing yourself and being sent to the police station? Luckily, I found out in time and begged my father to put in a good word for you."

"It's nothing, just a slip of the tongue."

After speaking, Sasuke Uchiha glanced at the snake bite on his arm, feeling a mix of emotions. He had actually been injured by "himself"; and how could he be so strong at this moment? Even if he didn't have much chakra, he shouldn't have been unable to react.

Fortunately, his eyes weren't examined, otherwise his Rinnegan might not have been able to be hidden.

Suddenly, Sasuke Uchiha realized something and turned to Boruto, asking, "Where did Naruto and the me from this timeline go?"

"He went out on a mission, didn't he? When I went to find Dad, he was just about to leave the village. I had to stop him and beg him for a long time before he agreed to come with me to the garrison to put in a good word for you."

Boruto recalled, not going into details how he clung to Naruto's leg, refusing to let him leave, and only after much pleading did he finally get Naruto to speak to him politely.

Sasuke Uchiha spoke up, "Let's go find him!"

Boruto Uzumaki, upon hearing this, said with a reluctant expression, "Eh? Uncle Sasuke, if you go with us again, you might really get beaten up by yourself. You might even end up in the hospital this time. You're too difficult to communicate with right now."

"I am not like that. This timeline is no longer the timeline I am familiar with, Boruto."

Sasuke Uchiha said with a serious expression that he was easy to talk to, but there was something wrong with this timeline, and it was not the time he remembered.

"Besides, if we don't come with Naruto, we'll have come for nothing. If he gets found by Urashiki Otsutsuki outside and he extracts the Nine-Tails, that would be terrible."

Boruto was slowly convinced, but he still held his head and said, "Even if Uncle Sasuke is right, where are we going to find Dad?"

"I know what they're up to. As long as we wait in advance, we'll find them eventually."

Sasuke Uchiha said that he knew that his timeline was going to seek revenge on his brother, and that the final battle would definitely take place at the Uchiha stronghold; if he could get there in advance, he should be able to stop the final act of resentment.

"Let's go, Boruto. There's no point in us staying in Konoha anymore."

"Hey, I want to play the ninja game a little longer."

Despite his constant complaints, Boruto Uzumaki followed Sasuke Uchiha, heading towards the outskirts of Konoha.

------

Swish!

With nothing else to do, Hakuyun Yosuke decided to go to Iwagakure to test Onoki's intentions. After sensing the Flying Thunder God mark in the direction of Iwagakure, which was quite far away, he used the Flying Thunder God Technique to instantly arrive at Iwagakure.

"Who? Who is it!"

"Who are you? Why are you here?"

The place where Shirokumo Yosuke teleported to was surrounded by a barrier and guarded by six Iwa ninja. After looking around, he saw the Flying Thunder God Kunai placed in the center of the barrier.

"They really put in the effort, placing a kunai inside a barrier and assigning so many people to guard it."

Shirokumo Yosuke couldn't help but chuckle. They were taking his kunai so seriously—were the Iwagakure villagers afraid? But the Iwagakure ninja had never fought him before.

"I am Yosuke Shirakumo from the Land of Fire. Take me to Onoki!"

Hakuun Yosuke didn't waste words with these Iwa ninja. He came here to give the Iwa ninja and Onoki a chance, and he didn't want to kill anyone if the matter could be resolved without war.

The surrounding Iwa ninja all wore expressions of vigilance and fear. Only after Shirakumo Yosuke finished speaking did one of the Iwa ninja quickly leave; however, the remaining Iwa ninja remained on guard.

Less than five minutes later, Shirokumo Yosuke sensed many ninjas rushing towards him, and their chakra was not weak.

Bang!

After the door was pushed open, a short old man flew in. Based on his physical characteristics and his ability to fly, Shiraku Yosuke knew without looking that he was the Third Tsuchikage, Onoki.

"Shirakumo Yosuke?"

Through the barrier, Onoki said to Shirakumo Yosuke, "I didn't expect you to be so young. You're even more talented than the First Hokage back then. But why did you dare to come to Iwagakure alone? Did you think tens of thousands of Iwagakure ninja couldn't kill you?"

"That's part of the reason. Just like a tiger never cares how many ants there are, because it can kill a whole bunch of them with a single breath; and I felt that coming to Iwagakure to talk to you would show more sincerity. In fact, I did the same with Kumogakure, but the Fourth Raikage disappointed me."

After Baiyun Youjie finished speaking, he put his hands together, and four chakra arms appeared behind him. They grabbed the surrounding barrier and easily tore it apart.

Upon seeing this, the other Iwa ninjas all showed serious vigilance, and had already taken out ninja tools or formed hand seals.

"Stop it, all of you!"

Onoki suddenly shouted, stopping the Iwa ninja and ANBU behind him, and continued, "He has no intention of making a move. Iwa ninja village wouldn't be on such high alert. Besides, this is really not the place to talk. Come with me, let's find somewhere else to talk."

"Okay."

After saying this, Shirokumo Yosuke followed Onoki outside.

He walked a little slowly, and Shirakumo Yosuke noticed the other Iwa ninjas' little movements, but he didn't pay attention and continued walking with Onoki.

Upon arriving at a very spacious room, Shirakumo Yosuke saw the long square table and the chairs surrounding it, and knew that this was where Iwagakure discussed important matters.

Without any hesitation, Shirokumo Yosuke sat down in one of the chairs; upon seeing this, Onoki's lips twitched, and he also sat down opposite Shirokumo Yosuke.

"I didn't expect you to actually come. Are you that confident in your abilities?"

Onoki asked, his words full of probing; after receiving the message from Huangtu and the Flying Thunder God Kunai, he had discussed it with the village elders, and after waiting for a day without seeing anyone, he realized that Shiraku Yosuke was not going to return.

I didn't expect them to come on the third day.

"No need for this probing, Onoki. Let's get down to business. I have no interest in beating around the bush."

After finishing his sentence, Shirokumo Yosuke paused for a moment, then asked, "Onoki, the farthest place I've actually been is the Nekomata Plain, more than 400 kilometers north of Kinrin Town in the Land of Lightning, where I confirmed the location of the Two-Tailed Nekomata's rebirth; what's west of the Land of Earth? What resources are there?"

Onoki was taken aback, never expecting Shirakumo Yosuke to ask this.

Although he didn't know what Bai Yunyangjie's intentions were, he thought for a moment and said, "There's nothing there, just a desolate wasteland. Master Wu once sent an exploration team to investigate, but after half a month they found nothing. There were traces of a battle between tailed beasts, but when we asked the Four-Tails and the Five-Tails, they didn't know anything."

Traces of a tailed beast battle?

Baiyun Youjie quickly recalled the battle between Kaguya Otsutsuki, Hagoromo Otsutsuki, and Hamura Otsutsuki a thousand years ago. The three Six Paths level powerhouses fought for more than a month, and it was already quite good that they didn't shatter the planet. The current ninja world might be the last piece of pure land left behind back then.

However, whether his guess was correct or not, Shiraku Yosuke could not be sure and would probably have to ask the people who experienced it back then.

"Onoki, I'm not going to beat around the bush anymore. I want the ninja world to be unified, leaving only one country and one ninja village. That way, there will be no more large-scale wars. Two people might fight, but one person's two hands will never fight to the death. And as long as I live, I can maintain peace for hundreds or even thousands of years."

Yosuke Shirakumo said directly to Onoki, "That's what I said to the Fourth Raikage back then, but unfortunately he was too disgusted. He would rather die than coexist peacefully with me. It's a real pity. I've never been one to kill indiscriminately."

Upon hearing this, Onoki didn't say anything, but his expression was very solemn. He had discussed with the other Iwa ninja elders and guessed that Konoha had big ambitions, but he didn't expect them to be this big.

"Even the First Hokage couldn't unify the ninja world. Even if you're hailed as the God of Shinobi, are you any better than that?"

"I'm better than him!"

Hakuun Yosuke interrupted Onoki and continued, "Although it's impolite to talk about our predecessors like this, it's true. I'm stronger than the First Hokage and Madara Uchiha. Even if they joined forces, I'm confident I could defeat them."

Omniscient Divine Art allows him to see everything, and the Ten-Tails clone with the chakra of seven tailed beasts brings Hakuun Yosuke just one step away from the Six Paths. If he were to unleash his full power, he would be the strongest person in the ninja world.

"To put it bluntly, I could wipe Iwagakure out of the ninja world in ten minutes, but I don't like killing people. Killing people for no reason is such a waste."

Even though Nara Shikaku, Akimichi Choza, and others plotted to kill him, Shiraku Yosuke, knowing this, squeezed every last bit of value out of them until he died.

Choza Akimichi is currently undertaking a highly difficult mission, the reward of which is merely two hours of reunion with his family after completion.

Bai Yunyang thought about how he would develop other worlds in the future, and that the number of ninjas was so small. Even if he included the weaker genin, he couldn't gather 100,000 people. If he were to develop other worlds in the future, every single one of them would be very precious.

"Shirokumo Yosuke, I really wanted you to join Iwagakure. The war with Konoha was also because of you. Unfortunately, that Slug Princess beat me to it and took you as her apprentice ahead of time. And she's treating you quite well."

After saying that, Onoki sighed. If they had been one step earlier, Iwagakure would be the number one ninja village in the ninja world now.

"However, the merger of the ninja villages means that Iwagakure will lose its lineage. From the First Tsuchikage to Master Mu, and then to me, the will of the Iwagakure ninjas has been indelible generation after generation. Therefore, I will not allow Iwagakure to disappear!"

Upon hearing Onoki's choice, Shirokumo Yosuke felt a surge of anger. He had made himself perfectly clear, but Onoki, a stubborn ninja, was as unyielding as a rock, seemingly impossible to persuade.

He's not as good as Rasa!

Although Rasa probably doesn't want the ninja villages to merge, at least he's afraid of death, and if he's scared, he might reluctantly agree.

On the contrary, Onoki is like a rock in a latrine, both smelly and hard!

"Onoki, I've come to discuss this with you in good faith. You don't need to refuse so quickly. Besides, if your reliance is on those ninjas outside, I advise you to give up. I wasn't boasting! You'd better think it over!"

After saying that, Shiraku Yosuke stood up, and after the tailed beast chakra appeared around his body, wings condensed on his back. Then, he smashed through the top ceiling and flew outside.

After Shirakumo Yosuke emerged, an Iwa ninja elder gave the order: "The enemy has appeared! Attack!"

Upon receiving the order, hundreds of Iwa ninja immediately unleashed a combined ninjutsu: "Earth Release: Earth Stone Dragon!"

"That's just asking for trouble!"

Yosuke Shirakumo originally intended to transform into the Ten-Tails and intimidate the village of Iwagakure, hoping that seeing the Ten-Tails' power would make them give up their resistance.

But he didn't expect that he would be attacked by the combined forces of Iwa ninja as soon as he left the Tsuchikage building; while he was talking with Onoki, the other Iwa ninja evacuated the civilians and mobilized the Iwa ninja army.

It seems he wants to test the true value of his title as the God of Ninjas!

"Then I'll grant your wish!"

boom!

After a blinding white light, a terrifyingly large object, big enough to blot out the sun, appeared in Iwagakure.

With a humanoid form and seven tails that blotted out the sun, the appearance of this enormous creature cast a shadow over Iwagakure. Moreover, the Earth Dragon Ninjutsu, used by hundreds of Iwagakure ninjas in unison, was easily shredded by one of the Ten-Tails' tails.

"What...what is this?"

All the Iwa ninja were stunned when they saw the Ten-Tails. It wasn't that they hadn't seen tailed beasts before, but even the complete forms of the Four-Tails and Five-Tails were only forty or fifty meters tall.

The ten tails in front of them were over 700 meters long, and the seven tails behind them were over 1,000 meters long, as if they could pluck the sun from the sky!

"An illusion? How can it be so powerful?"

Many Iwa ninja thought they were under a genjutsu, and even Onoki, who had just flown out of the Tsuchikage building, was shocked when he saw the Ten-Tails.

Onoki could sense the terrifying chakra contained within the Ten-Tails, which gave him nothing but fear!

"Onoki, this is your choice. How many of you survive depends on the abilities of the Iwa ninja!"

These words suddenly rang out in the Hidden Stone Village, their sound echoing through the valley and reaching almost every Hidden Stone ninja, including Onoki.

After Onoki heard this and realized what was happening, he saw the enormous beast in front of him shrink the tailed beast together, and the next second the sky above Iwagakure was filled with dark clouds and howling winds.

"Oh no! Stop him!"

Upon seeing this, Onoki's eyes widened and he shouted. Even without sensory ninjutsu, he could feel the enormous and terrifying chakra within the Ten-Tails. He quickly formed hand seals and used the Kekkei Tota!

"Dust Release: Particle Style - Detachment Technique!"

Boo!

A white beam of light quickly appeared in Onoki's hand and shot towards the Ten-Tails. However, after the Dust Release hit the Ten-Tails, it did decompose a part of its flesh and blood. But Onoki also felt that the Dust Release was very difficult to decompose, and it took three or four seconds to completely pierce through the Ten-Tails' body.

Even so, it only opened a small hole in the Ten-Tails. After Onoki used up all his chakra to maintain Dust Release for seven or eight seconds, apart from opening two bloody holes, it had no effect on the Ten-Tails.

Moreover, given the Ten-Tails' enormous size, these two wounds were insignificant; after Onoki canceled the Dust Release technique, the Ten-Tails' wounds quickly healed.

The fully evolved Ten-Tails can control Kekkei Tota and Yin-Yang Release, which are even more powerful than Kekkei Tota. Even if Shirakumo Yosuke only has the chakra of seven tailed beasts in the Ten-Tails now, the combined chakra of the Ten-Tails is not something that Kekkei Tota can easily destroy.

As for the Earth Release attacks from the other Iwa ninja, they had no effect on the Ten-Tails.

"You bastard, you scoundrel."

Onoki stared at the Ten-Tails in disbelief. He couldn't even grit his teeth anymore; fear was slowly creeping over him. Even so, Onoki turned to the other Iwa ninja and shouted, "Release defensive ninjutsu! Protect yourselves! Quickly!"

Just after Onoki shouted those words, Shirakumo Yosuke also accumulated enough chakra to release the power he instinctively controlled within the Ten-Tails.

The world is undergoing a dramatic change!

boom!

The world around the Ten-Tails seemed to twist and merge, then suddenly exploded outwards. The terrifying impact nearly blew away all the buildings in the entire Iwagakure village. Any earth-style defensive ninjutsu seemed utterly powerless in the face of such a dramatic change in the world.

Dark clouds filled the sky, lightning flashed and thunder roared, and strong winds raged, as if a natural disaster or the end of the world had arrived. This continued for a long time before it gradually subsided.

After the cataclysmic changes in the world ended, the dark clouds slowly dissipated because they no longer had chakra to sustain them, and Shirakumo Yosuke also retrieved the Ten-Tails into his body.

The area within several hundred meters of him was flattened. As for how many Iwa ninja died, Shiraku Yosuke didn't know, but in his perception, the Iwa ninja's chakra disappeared in large swathes.

However, the civilians of Iwagakure should be in no danger, as these guys had the civilians take refuge in underground shelters while they were mobilizing ninjas to surround the Tsuchikage's building.

"Onoki has been found!"

After sensing Onoki's chakra, Shirokumo Yosuke immediately teleported over and stood on a ruin, forming an Earth Release hand seal.

With his current control over chakra, he can easily reduce the number of hand seals required, and use many high-level escape techniques with just one hand seal.

Rumble!

The ruins below were suddenly lifted up by a rising earthen wall, and Onoki, who was under the wall of the ruins, was also lifted up by the earthen wall.

However, Onoki was, after all, the Third Tsuchikage. He reacted instantly to Hakugumo Yosuke's Earth Release ninjutsu and, despite his injuries, formed hand seals to counterattack.

"Dust Release: Limit Demise Technique!"

Onoki used Dust Release directly under the wall to obliterate the heavy object pressing down on him, and then used Dust Release to attack Shirakumo Yosuke.

However, Yosuke Shirakumo can also fly, and he is even faster. He instantly dodged Onoki's Dust Release and appeared behind him.

With his right fist clenched, he used his superhuman strength to strike directly at Onoki!

Bang!

The earth-遁 stone wall shattered instantly, and the immense force transmitted to the ground created a deep crater.

However, Onoki reacted quickly, rolling on the ground to dodge the fatal punch; but Shirakumo Yosuke was even faster, forming hand seals and using Lightning Release ninjutsu the moment Onoki got up.

"Lightning Release: False Darkness!"

A bolt of lightning as thick as a pillar struck Onoki rapidly, leaving him no time to dodge or defend with ninjutsu before being hit by the lightning release.

"Aaaaaah!!!"

After a pitiful scream, Onoki collapsed to the ground, charred black. Already injured in the upheaval of the world, he was struck by a high-level lightning release. Even if he didn't die, he wouldn't live much longer.

"You're lucky you survived!"

When Yosuke Shiraku found that Onoki was still breathing, he used his chakra arm to lift Onoki up. Then, just as he was preparing to use the Flying Thunder God Technique to return to Konoha, he suddenly remembered that there were still the Four-Tails and the Five-Tails.

Since we're here, we might as well take everything with us!

"Not in Iwagakure?"

Hakuun Yosuke formed hand seals and used more chakra to sense his surroundings, expanding his range of perception before finally finding chakra feedback from the Four-Tails and the Five-Tails.

These two Jinchūriki were indeed not in Iwagakure, but they were rushing here at a rapid pace.

Chakra wings sprouted from Shirokumo Yosuke's back, and he flew directly towards the Four-Tails and Five-Tails Jinchuriki, intending to capture them and bring them back to Konoha.

------

"Wait a minute, Sasuke, can you feel it?"

Naruto Uzumaki, who was on his way, suddenly called out to stop him. He then stood on a tree, closed his eyes, and carefully sensed the surroundings before finally looking towards the Land of Earth.

Sasuke Uchiha looked around but didn't find anything, so he asked, "Did you find anything, Naruto?"

Naruto pointed and said, "Chakra! There's a very strong chakra reaction in that direction!"

"Chakra? I don't feel anything, Naruto, are you sensing something wrong?"

Karin Uzumaki frowned slightly and asked. The moment Naruto spoke, she used Kagura's Mind's Eye to sense her surroundings, but there was no unfamiliar chakra within a dozen kilometers.

"There's no mistake, and this feeling is very special. Hmm, it must be the Nine-Tails' chakra giving me this feeling. There's definitely very strong chakra in that direction, it's just very far away!"

Naruto Uzumaki said with a contorted expression, "Just now, the Nine-Tails inside me stirred a bit, but it wasn't a tailed beast rampage or anything like that. It was just a sudden reaction of chakra."

Sasuke Uchiha didn't believe Naruto would talk nonsense, so he asked, "Should we report this to the village?"

"Let me know. It's possible I'm mistaken, but if it really is a problem, the village can take preventative measures if they notice it."

After Naruto finished speaking, he took out a scroll, wrote down his findings, and then asked Sasuke, "Are there any outposts nearby that can transmit information to the village?"

Sasuke recalled for a moment and said, "There's one on the border between the Land of Rain and the Land of Fire, right on our route."

"Let's go there, Sasuke."

After the three of them discussed their options, they headed towards the Land of Rain.

Konoha had gathered a lot of information about Itachi Uchiha, even knowing the Akatsuki's stronghold. So Sasuke Uchiha planned to go to the Land of Rain to gather information, but he wasn't foolish enough to take action there. Instead, he planned to lure Itachi out.

"This is bad, it seems like the enemy is coming."

In the illusionary space, after everyone appeared, White Zetsu spoke before Nagato could even open his mouth.

"It seems to be Itachi's younger brother, and he's also with the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki and another sensory ninja. The three of them are led by Uchiha Sasuke. It looks like they're here to take revenge on You, Itachi."

"Itachi, is he your younger brother? Should the organization take care of him for you?"

Nagato asked, "As for the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, he's not very important to the Akatsuki. Even if we capture him now, we can only imprison him. The Nine-Tails must be sealed one last time, and we've already found the place where the Nine-Tails was resurrected."

We can just capture wild nine-tailed foxes then; it's actually more convenient.

"Leave it to me, his eyes are very important to me."

After a moment of silence, Itachi Uchiha said, "Kisame alone is enough."

"Then I'll leave it to you, but deal with it as quickly as possible and don't let them come to Amegakure."

After Nagato finished speaking, he brought up another matter to the organization members: "We have obtained information about the Three-Tails. Deidara, Sasori, you two go and capture the Three-Tails. It is just a wild tailed beast, so it should be easier to deal with than a Jinchuriki."

Capturing a Jinchuriki would require dealing with a ninja village, but wild Tailed Beasts wouldn't pose such a big concern.

"Also, the Seven-Tails Jinchuriki has been released by Konoha and may have already returned to Takigakure. That's all."

Nagato looked around and suddenly realized that the Akatsuki organization didn't have many people they could send out; Itachi Uchiha and Kisame were going to deal with Sasuke Uchiha, and Deidara and Zetsu also had missions.

Only White Zetsu and Konan are left, but Konan is not usually responsible for capturing tailed beasts, so he will have to go out on his own.
