Naruto: The Template System

Outside Konoha.

Rumble...

The thunder roared, the red sky finally began to turn dark again, and the deathly aura enveloping the whole world finally dissipated.

Whoosh...

Along with other Konoha Anbu, Tsunade quickly arrived at the battle point.

"This... it's just ... too ...unbelievable"

Looking at the ravine continuing, hundreds of Kilometres where once mountains and rivers existed, but all were razed to nothingness; Tsunade was shocked.

Any life in that area was obliterated, and the whole ground had turned grey, losing its vitality.

"What... kind... of... strength...is required to do this?"

Anbu looked at the razed terrain and said with some emotion in his eyes.

Maybe only the legendary sage of six paths can do this, only he may have the power to destroy Hundreds of Kilometres of Land.

Tsunade calmed her heart, shocked by sight, and looked around for Minato and others.

Immediately she spotted Minato and the others and found them all fainted.

"Quickly take them back..."

After finding the passed-out Minato and the others, Tsunade immediately ordered to take them back to the village.

Finally, Tsunade also found Kurenai, who lay on the ground with blood everywhere.

"Poor Girl..."

Looking at Kurenai, who had passed out due to blood loss, Tsunade felt sad in her heart.

Just like her, this girl had gone through too much and had borne too much pain.

Today was one of the happiest days of her life, but it turned into hell, and once again, she had to experience the same pain.

Sigh...

"You... are gone... again, can't you just make this little girl happy"

Tsunade let out a sigh thinking about Kozuki, who was nowhere to be seen and felt even sadder for Kurenai.

He had promised her that he would always keep her student happy, but he broke his promise once again.

Rumble...

Tsunade and the Anbu quickly took everyone back to the village, and every Shinobi in the village was ordered to stay alert.

The divided corpse of Momoshiki was also brought back and was sealed for now and would be dealt with later.

"Do you mean the sword demon caused the strange phenomenon in the sky?"

Terumi asked the Kiri Ninja, who stood before her reporting about what happened outside Konoha.

"Yes, Lord Mizukage, according to our spy, some strange-looking people suddenly attacked the village, and sword demon fought them outside the village"

"Who can fight Sword Demon?"

Terumi had seen the strength of Kozuki during the Chunin Exam; she couldn't understand who could fight him.

"Sadly, we don't know much about the enemy, but it was confirmed that the enemy was defeated by Sword Demon"

"What about Sword Demon?"

Asked Terumi while looking at the Kiri Shinobi.

"He's missing; after the fight, no one saw him"

"Send a letter to Konoha; as allies, we have a right to know about everything since it involves dangerous enemies"

"Yes!!!"

Kiri Shinobi left, and Terumi sat back on her seat, thinking about the enemies who had the strength to fight Kozuki.

Whether it was Sand, Stone, or Cloud, they all received the news about what happened outside Konoha and asked for details.

The razed ground hundreds of Kilometres long was too shocking for everyone, and it was named as

"Battlefield of Gods."

"Have you learned about the enemy?"

Fukashi asked while looking towards White Zetsu.

"No, Konoha is too cautious this time, and they have developed a way to detect my chakra; I can't infiltrate Konoha anymore"

Last year, so many White Zetsu infiltrated Konoha quickly, so the corpses of white Zetsu were studied, and a method to detect them was invented.

"What about Sword Demon?"

Fukashi asked as he hoped that bastard was dead.

"He's missing; no one knows where he is now."

"This is the opportunity we were waiting for but wait for some time; if he really doesn't appear out anymore, we will start executing our plan"

Fukashi was excited as the opportunity he was waiting for was finally here, but he first wanted to confirm whether Kozuki was really gone.

He doesn't want him to ruin his plan once again.

Zetsu immediately told everyone about the thoughts of Fukashi as they quickly agreed.
