Naruto: Who made him a ninja

Chapter 183 The Moon Eye Project, canceled?!

"Seriously, do those guys really want to start a war?"

Within the territory of Konoha in the Land of Hot Water, a group of Konoha ninja are on night patrol.

The war has affected everyone; whether people like it or not, we have come to this point.

The defense line of the Land of Hot Water is a crucial location, because the area opposite is the territory of the Hidden Cloud Village. Once the war breaks out, they will be the front line!

During the patrol, a ninja couldn't help but mutter something under his breath, and their captain turned around and glanced at the ninja.

"I don't know whether war will break out or not, but we must complete our mission."

The captain spoke slowly, and the silver moonlight spilled onto the earth, illuminating his face, making his white eyes stand out.

"Moreover, this time it's not us who want to start a war, it's Iwagakure and Kumogakure that want to start a war with us. They envy our prosperous life and want to take everything from us."

They want to trample us underfoot, they want to plunder what we created—are we just going to stand by and watch them do whatever they want?

"How is this possible, Captain!"

"Sorry, Captain, I just..."

Upon hearing Captain Hyuga's words, the ninjas immediately felt embarrassed and apologized.

Although neither Hidezawa nor Tsunade made any claims about "not being able to repay the debt of gratitude to the Hokage and his assistant," life in Konoha has indeed changed!

Not only have those satellite countries undergone tremendous changes, but Konoha's industries have also grown continuously because of the emergence of these satellite countries.

The influx of cheap raw materials and cheap labor made Konoha very wealthy, and this situation also benefited the Konoha ninjas.

In addition to mission income, ninjas also receive job benefits. Even a Chunin's treatment is much better now than before.

Moreover, with the establishment of their satellite nation, those small ninja villages also need the assistance and training of Konoha ninjas, and the income from overseas missions is a large sum of money.

It's safe to say that the Konoha ninjas are living a much more comfortable life now than they used to.

Even if there's no debt of gratitude that can't be repaid, they genuinely don't want everything they have to be taken away from them!

"Since you know that, then do your job properly and stop complaining. We need to keep a close watch on everything on the other side."

Captain Hyuga nodded, but just as he was about to say something more, he suddenly realized something was wrong.

Smoke and dust rose in the distance, and the orange-red flames were so striking under the moonlight.

Seeing this, the Hyuga captain's expression changed slightly, and he immediately activated his Byakugan.

At that moment, his expression completely changed!

Because in his Byakugan, he saw countless ninjas who had already assembled and were heading in their direction.

Although the Byakugan could only detect traces of their chakra, the Hyuga captain understood almost immediately what everything he saw meant!

"What's wrong, Captain?"

The other team members were curious when they saw this scene, but looking at the smoke signals in the distance, they seemed to realize something.

This made them unconsciously put their hands on their ninja tool belts and gently grasp the kunai in the bag.

"Get the signal flares ready, everyone."

At that moment, the Hyuga captain took a deep breath and spoke with utmost seriousness.

"Top priority warning, notify everyone, because..."

"The war has begun!"

"Hyuga? The moon? The Sage of Six Paths' younger brother?"

Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha exchanged bewildered glances, having no idea when Hidezawa had arrived.

But now is not the time to discuss these things; they were completely stunned by Xiuze's words!

What kind of information is this? Why does this whole conversation make them feel like the ninja world is so unfamiliar?

But upon closer reflection, they realized that it wasn't entirely impossible.

"The Sharingan and Byakugan have this kind of relationship?"

The Sharingan is the pride of the Uchiha clan, while the Byakugan is the lifeblood of the Hyuga clan; both are clans whose foundation is based on eye techniques.

The Uchiha clan is from the lineage of the Sage of Six Paths, and the Hyuga clan is from the lineage of the Sage of Six Paths' younger brother, which seems plausible!

However, there are still many questions they don't understand, and they don't know whether they should ask them or not.

"Since you're here, feel free to ask anything you want."

Xiuze seemed to sense their worries, and he stretched and laughed nonchalantly.

"Since I didn't act immediately, it means I don't have any plans to act right now. This opportunity is extremely rare."

"Why is Hinata so weak right now?"

Upon hearing this, Hashirama Senju regained some composure and immediately asked a question.

He harbored no ill will toward Hidezawa, and was naturally not as nervous as Madara Uchiha.

"Could it be that the tradition has been lost, or is there some other reason?"

"First Generation Lord, you guessed right."

Shuzawa smiled and nodded in response to Hashirama Senju's words.

"Their clan has a main family and branch families on the moon."

"Tch, a leopard can't change its spots."

Madara Uchiha breathed a slight sigh of relief when he saw that Hidezawa seemed to have no intention of making a move for the time being.

And upon hearing that Hyuga on the moon felt the same way, he couldn't help but snort coldly.

"The main family and the branch families—the main family controls everything and enslaves the branch families, who are dissatisfied but helpless. This kind of thing never changes!"

"Then you're mistaken. They're not at that level on the moon."

Xiuze shrugged and said with a smile.

"Although they did have a huge disagreement, it wasn't in this area; on the contrary, they got along quite well."

The disagreement lies in the fact that the main branch of the clan believes they must steadfastly protect the ninja world on the moon to prevent the Otsutsuki clan from descending, thus serving as the first line of defense for the ninja world.

"Oh, the Hyuga main family on the moon sounds pretty good."

Hashirama Senju was somewhat surprised, but he still smiled and replied, though Madara Uchiha seemed to have picked up on something.

"So what about the Hyuga branch family? What are their thoughts? And what's the situation with the Hyuga clan in the ninja world?"

"Those branch families on the moon believe that the ninja world is a place inhabited by inferior beings, and that the ninja world has also deviated from the will of their ancestors."

Xiuze gently tapped the table and spoke softly.

"These branch family guys plan to use the Tenseigan to destroy the ninja world and start all over again."

Oh, by the way, the Tenseigan, like the Rinnegan, is the final step in enhancing the Byakugan.

"What?"

"this"

Neither Hashirama Senju nor Madara Uchiha seemed to have anticipated that things would develop this way!

Even more unbelievable is that the Hyuga group inside the moon must be crazy to have such thoughts.

"It was because of these extreme and contradictory ideas that a group of them left and came to the ninja world through the teleportation channel."

Hidezawa continued, and Madara Uchiha immediately understood.

"That's the current Hyuga, right? No wonder many ancient books record them in a haphazard way; it turns out they appeared suddenly."

And you found the passage by consulting ancient books and investigating where they first appeared, right?

"That's right."

Xiuze smiled. In any case, he had already created major cases such as "the biggest artifact forgery in the history of the ninja world" and "the biggest historical alteration in the ninja world".

He doesn't mind adding some information to complete the story and giving others room for imagination.

"After all, there are precedents with the Uchiha and Senju, so the Hyuga is so special that we should be able to find something out."

As it turns out, I was right; we found the way to the moon.

In a way, they were lucky. A major battle broke out between the main family and the branch family, resulting in many deaths and injuries, with most of the members now crippled.

We got a huge advantage after we went up there. Even though it came at a cost, we managed to wipe them all out, and now the moon is ours.

Has the moon become Konoha?

These words made Hashirama Senju's eyes widen, but Madara Uchiha was not surprised.

If everyone on the moon is killed, what's wrong with expanding territory?

Don't be in vain!

"So, you found this tree root on the moon?"

It took Hashirama Senju a while to recover, and then he pointed to the tree root in disbelief.

"Back then, those Hyuga clans took this thing up into the sky?"

I brought it up there.

Xiuze inwardly complained, but outwardly nodded.

"That's right. I've seen the Uchiha stone tablet, and I guessed that the Senju should have the same thing, but I don't know where it is now."

I never expected it to be on the moon. No wonder no one could find it. But it's also fortunate it's on the moon, otherwise this thing would probably have been tampered with.

"."

It would have been better if he hadn't mentioned it, because as soon as he did, Madara Uchiha's face turned dark.

Damn it, I've been made a fool of!

Moreover, the entire Uchiha clan's ancestors, including Indra, have all become clowns!

Madara Uchiha truly felt resentful about this.

"Hmph, maybe it was something from your Senju clan that was tampered with!"

Madara Uchiha remained defiant, letting out a cold snort and speaking indifferently.

"This thing has been on the moon for so many years, who knows if the Hyuga clan members have tampered with it!"

"Even without this tree root, I know that your Uchiha's stone tablet has been tampered with."

However, Shuzawa didn't give Uchiha Madara any face at all; he shook his head and sighed.

"The Senju are the representatives of Yang Release, and the Uchiha are the representatives of Yin Release. The combination of the two obtains the power of all things in the universe."

Even after obtaining Wood Release, I did not give up my pursuit of Yin Release, and thus I obtained Light Release.

My Yin-style escape techniques have improved by leaps and bounds, so I tentatively combined these two powers together.

Despite the numerous difficulties, I managed to do it. Later, while examining the Uchiha stone tablet, I unexpectedly discovered some information inside.

More importantly, I possess Yin-Yang Release, and I can sense that the chakra on your stone tablets is not actually continuous.

Xiuze's words were a simple explanation of his "Power of All Things".

Although a closer look might reveal many problems, Xiuze has no worries about them at all.

Moreover, he knew that Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha probably wouldn't investigate further, since such a secret isn't something just anyone would reveal.

Madara Uchiha didn't really think much of it; his attention was focused on the second half of Hidezawa's sentence.

"Incoherent"

He murmured something, and Hashirama Senju understood.

"You mean, the chakra was modified?"

"That's right."

Xiuze nodded frankly. Lying is eight parts truth and two parts falsehood, and even the falsehoods are actually all true if you don't think too much about them!

Otherwise, how could he surpass Black Zetsu and create "the biggest scam in the ninja world"?

"The person operating this technique is highly skilled, and is very proficient in the Yin-Yang Escape technique. Ordinary people probably wouldn't be able to understand it at all."

But I'm different. I don't rely on seeing, I rely on perception. Moreover, I cultivate Yin-Yang Escape, so I naturally perceive the difference between the two immediately.

And if I'm not mistaken, Madara Uchiha, you definitely didn't check these messages when you saw them, because your mindset was already compromised at that point, right?

"."

Madara Uchiha didn't speak, but silently turned to look at the two "sacred relics" behind him, especially the Uchiha stone tablet.

"spot?"

Hashirama Senju was somewhat puzzled, not knowing what Hidezawa meant. Fortunately, Hidezawa spoke up again at this moment.

"I've heard Hikaru say that to see this information, the Sharingan needs to keep evolving."

During the kaleidoscope era, you probably saw quite a lot of content, but you didn't pay attention to it.

During the Eternal Eye era, your younger brother was killed by the Second Hokage. You must have had some inner turmoil. Even if you were still thinking about establishing Konoha at that time, the seed had already been planted.

When the First Hokage refused your attempt to unify the ninja world, you saw the limitations of Konoha and foresaw the resurgence of war in the future. The seed in your heart began to sprout.

When you obtain the power of the First Hokage and continuously nurture and awaken the Rinnegan, your belief is firm, and you also see the complete plan for the Eye of the Moon.

At this point, you're no longer exploring or considering anything else; you just want to get it all done, right?

"spot?"

Hashirama Senju stared at Madara Uchiha in disbelief. He truly hadn't expected his friend's inner transformation to be so complex.

Madara Uchiha remained silent for a long time before shaking his head and sighing helplessly.

"If only you were Hashirama Senju."

"."

Hashirama Senju's eyes widened; this meant that everything Hidezawa had said was true!

However, he was also a little frustrated. Was there really such a big gap between him and Xiuze?

"don't want."

However, Xiuze shook his head firmly again at this moment.

"You're not light, I think you should just forget about it."

"."

You're just greedy for them!

Madara Uchiha was speechless; he felt his fists hardening.

"Also, if you think about it carefully, you'll understand something."

Xiuze sighed, leaned back in his chair, and continued speaking.

"The Sage of Six Paths created the Ninja Cult to allow the ninja world to develop and for everyone to be able to survive in this world."

If that's the case, why did he even bother with the Eye of the Moon project? Why did he use such a foolish method to create a false peace?

Anyone with a sound mind could probably spot the clues, but...

Madara Uchiha didn't speak, but his gaze swept over, and he could tell that Hidezawa was cursing.

But ironically, he found himself completely unable to retort.

Thinking about it carefully, it does seem to make sense; the Sage of Six Paths had no reason to do that!

Moreover, if it really needed to be done, it seems he could accomplish it himself, so why bother separating the tailed beasts and relying on future generations to do it?

Combined with the information on the tree roots, the Sage of Six Paths wanted to train the ninja world to deal with the so-called Otsutsuki, and mentioned that there was an "evil shadow" in the ninja world.

This all seems to point to one thing: Madara Uchiha has truly become a clown.

Thinking about this, Madara Uchiha was so angry that he was trembling all over!

He never expected that what he had worked so hard for and prepared for so long would turn out like this.

"I'm going to kill this bastard! I'll tear him to pieces!"

Finally, Madara Uchiha couldn't hold back any longer; his anger soared to the heavens.

He vowed that he would kill this guy; he couldn't let this grudge go unavenged!

Moreover, he's lost interest in the Eye of the Moon project.

"Let's go!"

Madara Uchiha spoke coldly, his eyes filled with anger and disappointment.

There's no point in staying here any longer.

I don't think so.

To Madara Uchiha's surprise, Hidezawa suddenly shook his head.

"I think it still has some meaning, because there are some things we can still talk about."

"For example, don't you want to know the secret of the Eye of the Moon, and find out who the mastermind is?"

The Fourth Shinobi World War finally began.

This war is no different from the previous ones; both are for their own development and to gain more benefits.

Tens of thousands of ninjas were divided into several large combat units and a number of special squads, and began a massive war on the border of the Land of Fire.

The 100,000 White Zetsu also split into several groups and began to move quietly. Orochimaru even transferred the Edo Tensei army into various combat units.

"Seriously, it looks like trouble is brewing."

Kakashi looked at the army of ninjas in the distance and couldn't help but rub his head; he was really feeling the trouble.

"Fighting alongside you guys is troublesome; don't you dare hold me back."

Zabuza, whose face was covered in bandages, snorted coldly upon hearing this. The two of them were now in the same team.

"Little boy" Haku followed Zabuza and looked ahead. He was also wearing the standard Kirigakure uniform.

Zabuza did not defect; he was recruited into Kirigakure and they are now officially Kirigakure ninjas.

"Zabuza-sama."

Suddenly, Bai seemed to realize something, and he spoke in a low voice.

"There's movement ahead. They're coming, and their chakra aura is strong."

As they spoke, a large number of figures appeared in front of them!

These people's faces were covered with cracks, which represented their reincarnation through the Impure World Reincarnation technique.

The headbands worn by the leaders were all from Kirigakure, which immediately made Kakashi glance at Zabuza beside him.

But soon, more and more similar ninjas appeared, and all sorts of headbands were also available, which made Kakashi sigh.

"Orochimaru is certainly well-prepared, but these guys in front of him..."

"The former Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, I like this one!"

Before Kakashi could finish speaking, a bloodthirsty smile appeared on Zabuza's face.

Although Kirigakure has undergone tremendous changes, it remains a different story for the Kirigakure ninja of his era.

His greatest skill is stabbing his own comrades in the back!

"Neuropathy"

Seeing Zabuza's excitement, Kakashi sighed inwardly.

He rubbed his forehead and casually lifted the headband covering his eyes, revealing a scarlet Sharingan.

"They've finally arrived!"

Beside him, Kai was also extremely excited, and he laughed loudly.

"Kakashi, let's do our best together! Youth is the time to burn brightly!"

"."

Kakashi remained silent; he felt he had nothing more to say.

Therefore, it's best to remain vigilant and ready to act at any time.

……

On the other side, Chiyo, representing Sunagakure, also joined forces with the Konoha troops.

Looking at the densely packed crowd ahead, Chiyo couldn't help but sigh.

"I never imagined that I would have to face war at my age. It's truly a poignant situation."

"You didn't actually have to come."

Asuma, with a cigarette dangling from his lips, glanced at Chiyo, exhaled a puff of smoke, and then shook his head.

"You know you're old, so why are you still out here?"

The latest novel is first published here!

Beside him, Ino seemed a little nervous, and Choji had lost his appetite. Only Shikamaru kept staring ahead.

"Is it because of Sasori from the Akatsuki?"

After a while, Shikamaru suddenly asked a question.

"I heard that guy is going to make a move, so that's why you came, right?"

Chiyo didn't speak, but her attitude said it all: she had come to find Sasori!

In the sky opposite, white clay birds spread their wings and soared through the heavens, with two figures standing on them.

"Honestly, why should I bring you along?"

Deidara, standing on the flying bird, glanced at Sasori beside him with displeasure. Although he was excited about the upcoming battle, he was also somewhat unhappy about having to fight alongside the Akatsuki members.

Especially the guy next to him, dressed in a black outfit with red clouds, whose artistic ideas completely conflicted with his own, making him feel uncomfortable around this guy.

"I don't want to be with you either, but you're the only one who can fly, and I need to observe the situation on the battlefield."

Scorpion glanced at the kid beside him; he had a feeling this guy was destined to die young.

However, he was too lazy to say much more; all he needed to do was complete the task!

However, at that moment his gaze sharpened, and he suddenly saw a familiar figure appear in front of the distant position.

"Grandma Chiyo?"

Upon seeing that figure, Scorpion's expression became somewhat complicated, but he quickly shook his head.

No matter who it is, once they've reached this point, they have no way out!

Below, Huang Tu was also observing the opposite side, and Hei Tu, standing beside him, couldn't help but ask in a low voice.

"Father, are we really going to war?"

"This is not something I can decide."

Huang Tu sighed upon hearing this, but quickly smiled again.

"But don't worry too much, I will protect you, and everything should be peaceful after this."

"Dear Father."

Heitu wanted to say something more, but couldn't find the words, so she could only nod silently.

"Oh, right, there's one more thing."

But at that moment, Huang Tu suddenly lowered his voice and muttered something in a low voice, as if whispering.

"If, I mean if we're really unlucky and run into Hideaki Shihara head-on."

"Don't hesitate at all; there's only one thing you need to do."

"run!"

"I didn't expect we'd be fighting Konoha again. How interesting!"

On the other side of the area, the main force of the Cloud Village is constantly gathering.

Meanwhile, in the White Zetsu army on their flank, two tall figures stood side by side.

They had horns on their heads and carried gourds, swords, ropes, and other items, making their identities immediately clear!

These two are Kinkaku and Ginkaku, the Cloud Village martial arts faction who once assassinated the Second Raikage and hunted down the Second Hokage.

"This time, we must get our revenge properly."

Silverhorn nodded, but soon he glanced at Kakuzu, who was wearing an Akatsuki robe.

"What a surprise, you've actually survived until now?"

"I've heard that there's something in Takigakure called Earth Grudge Fear, which can be used to perform a certain terrifying forbidden technique."

Jinjiao also tilted his head, looking Jiaozu up and down.

"You must have survived until now using this technique. Why didn't we see you in the Akatsuki organization before?"

"Because I have no interest in having any interaction with you guys."

Kakuzu glanced at the two of them, then spoke with disdain.

In their time, Jinjiao and Yinjiao were also known as "madmen".

Kakuzu was devoted to the village back then, so naturally he didn't like these madmen. After he defected and became a bounty hunter, he also lost interest in these two madmen.

Even though he knew they had been resurrected by Edo Tensei, Kakuzu had never interacted with them. He just never expected that he would be grouped with them now.

"I also think it's really pointless to be stuck with someone like you."

Silver Horn gave a soft snort and grinned at Kakuzu.

"It would be even more interesting if Tobirama Senju were here."

"Don't ask me that."

Kakuzu shook his head and looked into the distance.

"You may never meet Tobirama Senju, but you might have a chance to meet his disciples and their descendants."

"Oh?"

Looking up, Kinkaku and Ginkaku could see the Konoha army standing ready for battle.

The leader was an old man dressed in ancient armor, gazing into the distance.

"An old man?"

"Is Konoha looking down on people a little?"

Gold and Silver Horns showed disdain, as if they felt humiliated, while Kakuzu chuckled softly.

"Don't underestimate that old man. To them, he's still just a kid. He's the Third Hokage of Konoha."

He was appointed by Tobirama Senju before his death, and you should have some impression of his name.

His name is Hiruzen Sarutobi.

"Oh?"

"Is that the brat who used to be by Tobirama Senju's side?"

Upon hearing the name, the two immediately remembered it, and what intrigued them even more was Hiruzen Sarutobi's identity.

"Was it a dying wish?"

"It seems he should thank us."

"I just don't know what to do with this kid."

"How does his skill level compare to his teacher's?"

……

People are constantly gathering throughout the ninja world, and fierce battles have even broken out in some places.

Meanwhile, on the moon, Naruto continued his arduous training, and he was feeling rather frustrated.

He could tell that his father seemed to be in a bad mood, and he also noticed that most of the ANBU ninjas who were originally there had left.

"What on earth happened?"

Naruto was a little frustrated, but unfortunately, no one told him what had happened in the ninja world, not even his parents!

"Kid, your power and mine are not yet in sync. No one will let you leave."

Just when Naruto was feeling most frustrated, the Nine-Tails inside him suddenly spoke to him.

"If you can't settle down right now, how can you possibly achieve complete chakra synchronization with me?"

During his time on the moon, Naruto developed a certain level of understanding with Kurama.

Strictly speaking, Kurama's animosity towards Naruto wasn't that strong, especially since he knew quite a bit of the truth!

He always remembered that the person who controlled him that night was Obito Uchiha.

Naruto was just an unlucky guy, a pathetic fellow. He couldn't do anything, and he was just as unlucky as anyone else.

Perhaps there's some unspoken understanding between the unlucky and the unlucky?

Of course, that's not the key point. The most crucial issue lies with one person!

"Shihara Hidezawa."

Through Naruto, Kurama was able to observe the outside world, and naturally, he could also observe Shihara Hidezawa more clearly.

In the beginning, it was this guy who made Naruto feel warmth, and it was this guy who brought a different kind of light when Naruto was most helpless.

This made Naruto keep talking about this guy, and Kurama (the Nine-Tails) also unconsciously start observing him.

The more Nine-Tails observed, the more alarmed he became, because this guy truly instilled fear in him!

At first, he thought this guy was just the next Minato Namikaze, but gradually he realized he was probably the next Tobirama Senju.

Of course, he didn't know what Tobirama Senju was like, since he had never met him.

But after this kid awakened his bloodline and obtained Wood Release, everything started to change.

He initially thought it was just another damned Hashirama Senju, but as the situation developed, he quietly discovered...

"This guy, why is he starting to look more and more like an old man?"

The old man that Kurama mentioned was naturally the Sage of Six Paths, the being who split the Ten-Tails and created them.

The fact that Nine-Tails could have such a feeling is enough to show just how outrageous Xiuze is!

What's even more outrageous is that Xiuze's growth seems to have never stopped, and his progress is unimaginable.

Not long ago, the rampage of chakra that swept across the heavens and earth, the terrifying scene that almost drained the power of the entire moon, all of this instilled in Kurama an instinctive fear.

It was a fear that came from the very soul, like the pull of a primal force that almost pulled him out!

"What is this?"

Nine-Tails couldn't help but think to himself that this feeling was no longer the same as the old man's.

Instead, it's more like the Ten-Tails that gave birth to them, the one that originally contained all their power!

But how can a human turn into a ten-tailed fox?

Nine-Tails couldn't understand it, but he was very clear about one thing: he had better not go against this person!

"He has never caused me any trouble, nor has he ever looked down on Naruto. Moreover, when Minato Namikaze was summoned by the Impure World Reincarnation, his other half was not absorbed."

This means he doesn't have any particular feelings towards them; perhaps he looks down on them, or perhaps he respects them, but at least we don't have any problems.

The feeling of being looked down upon is truly unpleasant.

Didn't you see that even after Hashirama Senju beat him up, he still said, "Ku-Tails, you are too strong and too dangerous. You must be sealed away"?

However, this seems better than being completely drained, right?

Kurama decided that "discretion is the better part of valor," so he obediently cooperated with Naruto, allowing Naruto to make extremely rapid progress!

The problem is that achieving complete chakra synchronization is not so easy.

"Tch, Nine-Ratna, all you do is make sarcastic remarks."

Naruto sighed helplessly. He already knew the Nine-Tails' name, so he called it by its name directly. He scratched his hair and said dejectedly.

"Everyone is in a state of unease. Clearly, something big has happened in the ninja world, but they haven't told me. How can I be at ease?"

"You idiot brat, what do you think you'll do back there?"

Nine-Tails was too lazy to say much; he felt this kid was really stupid.

"There are so many powerful ninjas in the entire ninja world, not to mention your Hokage who is so powerful it's suffocating, so it doesn't really matter whether you're there or not."

"hateful."

Naruto was a little annoyed. He wanted to prove himself and fight alongside everyone, instead of hiding in the back.

As a result, Nine-Tails' words made him feel like he was dispensable, which made him very unhappy.

"Also, if you can't calm down and do it properly..."

Just as Naruto was feeling extremely frustrated, Kurama spoke again in a low voice.

"That Sasuke kid is probably about to surpass you!"

"Oh no!"

Naruto's expression changed immediately upon hearing this. Although he and Sasuke were good friends, he didn't want to lose to Sasuke, no matter who he was with!

"However, that's normal."

Kurama clearly knew Naruto all too well, and he continued to make sarcastic remarks from the side.

"After all, Sasuke only needs to get a new pair of eyes, while you have to work harder to train. It's normal to lose."

Although I'm not happy either, if you could catch up with or even surpass that guy under such extreme circumstances, that feeling would probably be wonderful.

However, given your current state, there's probably no hope. You should just proceed step by step.

But when the time comes, don't complain about why he can go down but not others.

"That's enough!"

Naruto couldn't hold back any longer. He quickly stood up and was full of energy!

He clenched his fist and shouted.

"Alright, let's get started! I'll finish as quickly as possible!"

"off"

Nine-Tails shook its head in boredom. This guy is really not easy to deal with.

A simple provocation worked!

He really is an idiot.

"Is this the Eternal Eye?"

Inside the Hamura Shrine, Sasuke's eyes were tightly wrapped in bandages, and he could not see anything.

However, he could feel the changes in his eyes, and the cells injected into his body were also rapidly transforming him.

The feeling of power excited him immensely, and he also knew that something big had happened in the ninja world.

Shisui didn't tell him exactly what it was, but he understood that things were definitely not simple, and this was also an opportunity for him!

"This is my chance to prove myself to Lord Hidezawa, Lord Hikaru, and Lord Hokage."

"This is absolutely an opportunity to revitalize the Uchiha clan and let everyone live in the sunlight!"

"Faster, faster! I can't wait any longer!"

"Hey, are you sure?"

At the base in the Land of Rice Fields, Madara Uchiha returned with Hashirama Senju.

The entire ninja world is in complete chaos, with everything under lockdown, but to them it's like an uninhabited land.

However, after returning, Hashirama Senju still looked at Madara Uchiha with some doubt.

"You should know what the consequences of doing this will be, right? Do you really want to continue?"

"There's nothing more to say now that things have come to this."

Madara Uchiha shook his head, his gaze cold and sinister.

"I'd like to see what's really going on!"

Seeing Madara Uchiha's attitude, Hashirama Senju shrugged and said nothing more. At this moment, they had already entered the underground base.

The entire base is now deserted; there are hardly any people here.

But as they appeared, Orochimaru, Black Zetsu, and Obito Uchiha, who didn't have any mission, all came over.

"You're back, Lord Madara."

Black Zetsu seemed unmoved by the change in his emotions, and he spoke with a smile.

"Um."

Madara Uchiha, however, remained indifferent. After glancing around, he spoke.

"Where's Nagato? Didn't he come?"

"He probably has some other ideas; he spends all his time with the heretical demon statues."

Obito Uchiha snorted coldly. In fact, he really wanted to take action while Madara Uchiha was away, but time was just too tight.

Moreover, he had already tested the waters. Nagato was always very vigilant; the moment he crossed space, the Gedo Mazo could detect him, thus alerting Nagato.

This situation made Obito Uchiha really grit his teeth in hatred, but he also managed to probe out some information, which would allow him to be more composed next time.

If Madara Uchiha strikes again, then he will definitely have a chance!

"Never mind, it doesn't matter if he's not here."

However, after a moment of contemplation, Madara Uchiha suddenly spoke.

"Furthermore, let all operations cease; let it all end here."

Is this the end?

Upon hearing this, Orochimaru raised an eyebrow; he showed no surprise.

After all, he had been "listening in" last night, so he naturally knew about some of the developments, and he just felt that something was interesting.

Black Zetsu's expression had changed. Although Madara Uchiha hadn't guessed who the 'shadow' was, his worst fears had come true!

"Is this the end?"

Obito Uchiha frowned, not quite understanding what was happening yet.

What does this guy mean?

"Haven't I made myself clear enough, Obito Uchiha?"

Madara Uchiha frowned. Although he didn't want to explain too much, the stupidity displayed by Obito Uchiha was truly astonishing.

He explained it so clearly, so why does this guy still look like he doesn't understand?

"Ban means that there's no need to attack anymore; all plans are canceled."

Hashirama Senju seemed to have had enough and couldn't help but offer a suggestion.

These words immediately turned Obito Uchiha's face pale, and he looked at Madara Uchiha in disbelief.

Madara Uchiha nodded quietly, then calmly looked at Obito Uchiha and added.

"That's right, all plans have been cancelled, or to be more precise..."

Project Eye of the Moon has been completely terminated and cancelled!

Upon hearing Madara Uchiha's words, Obito Uchiha was completely dumbfounded.
