Naruto: Traveling Through Time Starting with Seizing the Dragon Vein

"If I were to include Ryuchi Cave and Shikkotsu Forest in my 'Heaven's Will Plan,' how feasible do you think it is, Great Toad Sage?"

Upon hearing this, the laughter in the hall instantly ceased.

"The white snake in Ryuchi Cave, and the slug in Shikkotsu Forest?"

Gamamaru narrowed his cloudy eyes slightly, pondered for a moment, and slowly said:

"Although our three holy lands are equally famous, we have had very little contact with each other since ancient times."

The slug of Shikkotsu Forest is gentle yet extremely solitary. Aside from its contractor, it is indifferent to the rise and fall of the ninja world, and I don't know what it specifically wants. As for the white snake sage of Ryuchi Cave… it is capricious, greedy, and extremely bloodthirsty. You might be able to sway it with benefits.”

"Now I understand."

Chapter 145 News from Kirigakure

"Now I understand."

Uchiha Yue nodded slightly, already having made up her mind.

You can start with Tsunade in Shikkotsu Forest, but for Ryuchi Cave, you'll need to figure out what the White Snake Sage wants.

After a moment of contemplation, Yue took out an extremely exquisite black scroll from his robes and presented it to the giant toad immortal in front of him with both hands.

“Great Toad Sage, since Mount Myōboku is willing to join the ‘Heaven’s Will Project,’ then as an ally, this is my first gesture of sincerity.”

"What's recorded here is the technical principle of a technique I developed called [Ming Seal], which combines the secret arts of multiple races with the ultimate Yin-Yang Escape, as well as the port code for connecting it to the 'Mental Local Area Network' I constructed."

Gamamaru slightly opened his cloudy eyes, while Fukasaku immediately jumped forward, respectfully took the scroll, and unfurled it.

"The Bright Seal?" Gamamaru glanced at the chakra flow diagram on the scroll. At first, he was just curious, but after a few seconds, the pupils of this thousand-year-old sage suddenly contracted.

With its vision, it naturally saw through the terrifying concept of this technique at a glance!

"To purify and compress spiritual power, chakra, and even natural energy to the extreme... and even share them without loss, regardless of spatial distance?"

This god-level secret technique, capable of changing the fundamental rules governing chakra circulation in the world, has been handed over to us without any reservation?

"You...aren't you afraid that if I take this secret technique, improve it, and then use it against you?" Gamamaru looked at Yue with complicated eyes.

"If you doubt someone, don't use them; if you use someone, don't doubt them."

Uchiha Yue smiled frankly, his tone revealing absolute confidence.

"The network of [Ming Seal] is essentially a mutually beneficial platform. Through it, you can obtain the chakra and intelligence I share at any time; and I also need Mount Myōboku to provide me with Sage Chakra through this portal."

"In this gamble against 'fate,' if we have to rely on secret doors and cursed seals to maintain even the most basic trust between us, then we should stop playing this game as soon as possible."

Yue patted her sleeves, turned around, and walked out of the main hall.

"Whether you want to learn this technique or connect to the network is your choice, Great Toad Sage. I look forward to your reply."

Watching Uchiha Tsuki's departing figure, Gamamaru fell into a long silence.

It has lived for thousands of years and has seen countless acts of deceit, betrayal, and treachery.

But I have never seen anyone like Uchiha Tsuki, who possesses power enough to overturn the world, yet can still display such openness.

“My lord…” Fukasaku the Immortal held the scroll, his hands trembling slightly.

"Learn, and you can use Sage Chakra anytime."

Gamamaru closed his eyes, his massive body disappearing into the shadows of the pool, a smile playing on his lips.

"Such a magnificent demeanor... If I were to hesitate any longer, it would make us from Mount Myōboku seem petty."

As for Jiraiya, who was standing to the side, he was still in a state of mental blankness. Looking at the receding moon and then at his master, he felt that the world was so crazy that he wanted to find a tavern and get drunk.

……

Two weeks later.

Sarah then quickly approached, carrying a top-secret scroll.

"Lord Tsuki, Yakushi Nonou has sent some information about the Land of Water."

Yue took the scroll and casually asked, "Kirigakure? Judging by the time, we should be there by now."

Sara reported, "According to our undercover investigation in the Land of Water's black market, an extremely brutal purge has recently taken place within Kirigakure. The Fourth Mizukage, Yagura Karatachi, has not only severed all diplomatic ties with the outside world, but has also begun a frenzied massacre of clans within the village that possess bloodline limits, including the Kaguya clan, the Minazuki clan, and the Yuki clan... all of whom are on the purge list."

Yue chuckled and tossed the intelligence scroll onto the metal tabletop.

Obito's manipulation of the Fourth Mizukage to open the "Village of Blood Mist" was part of the original storyline.

“Guang, judging by the time, those kids in the inner courtyard have been undergoing special training for two and a half years, right?” Yue turned her head and asked.

Hikaru nodded: "Yes, their seals have been completely stabilized, and their various ninjutsu and taijutsu have reached the first stage indicators you set, especially Nagato... his strength is already close to Kage level."

"very good."

Uchiha Yue snapped his fingers in satisfaction.

“You can’t train real strongmen by working behind closed doors. Those kids have been in the greenhouse for so long, it’s time for them to go out and see some blood and sharpen their claws.”

"Notify Obito, Kakashi, Yahiko, and the others to come to Assembly Hall Number One."

"The first S-rank combat mission of the [Dawn] organization has been officially issued."

……

Half an hour later, in the first martial arts training hall of Loulan.

Seven teenagers, each with a distinct aura yet exuding a powerful and oppressive presence, stood in a neat row.

Two years have passed, and they have shed their initial naivety.

Obito's figure grew taller, and his three-tomoe Sharingan emitted a cold light;

Kakashi held a specially made ninja sword, his eyes as deadly yet sharp as an abyss;

Yahiko's muscles are well-proportioned, exuding an explosive sense of power;

Standing in the middle, Nagato's Rinnegan beneath his red hair exuded an aura of divine authority that commanded respect without a hint of anger.

"Senior!" Obito, still unable to contain his excitement, was the first to shout as he saw Yue walk onto the platform. "Is it finally a mission?"

"There is indeed a mission."

Uchiha Yue looked at the group of "futures" he had personally trained, and a smile appeared on his lips.

"The Land of Water, the Hidden Mist Village".

Yue tossed a briefing in front of them.

"The 'masked man' who once wanted to destroy Konoha and orchestrated many tragedies is now hiding behind the scenes in Kirigakure, using genjutsu to control the Fourth Mizukage and turning the entire village into a bloody grinding mill where people kill each other."

Upon hearing the words "masked man," Obito and Kakashi's expressions instantly changed.

They hadn't forgotten that two years ago, in that underground cave, Senior Yue had told them that it was this masked man who was plotting to destroy the world!

"Your task is simple."

Uchiha Tsukuyomi coldly looked down at them and issued the first order since the formation of this squad that would change the landscape of the ninja world:

"Infiltrate the Water Kingdom and thwart the masked man's plot."

"Furthermore, we announce to the entire ninja world that the [Dawn] has arrived!"

Obito clenched his fists tightly, his three-tomoe Sharingan spinning wildly, and the fighting spirit in his chest boiled over.

"Leave it to me, Tsukuyomi-senpai! I, Obito Uchiha, will personally beat that masked bastard who impersonates our Uchiha clan and causes trouble!"

Looking down at the imposing figure of the original Obito, about to stop the masked man...

Uchiha Yue could no longer suppress the wicked smile on his lips.

Chapter 146 We must dispel the blood mist!

The Land of Water, the Hidden Mist Village.

The thick fog that never dissipates, like viscous blood, tightly shrouds this isolated village overseas.

In the dimly lit office on the top floor of the Water Shadow Building, no lights were on.

The Fourth Mizukage, Yagura Karatachi, sat expressionlessly in his large office chair like a soulless puppet. His eyes were unfocused, and the eerie reflection of his three-tomoe Sharingan shone through their depths.

In the shadows behind him, a spiraling ripple spread through the space.

A man wearing a one-eyed vortex mask and a long black robe slowly emerged from the void.

Obito Uchiha.

Or rather, the man who called himself "Uchiha Madara".

"My lord, news has come from the other side."

A black and white pitcher plant rose from the floor, and White Zetsu's somewhat frivolous voice broke the deathly silence.

"The situation in Konoha has completely stabilized. Orochimaru has defected, and Tobirama Senju was suspected of being resurrected using the Impure World Reincarnation technique, but he quickly disappeared again, and..."

Bai Jue paused, his tone becoming somewhat serious, "As for Loulan, we haven't obtained any useful information so far. The information we have comes from Konoha, and it's basically common knowledge in the ninja world."

Beneath the mask, Obito's Sharingan suddenly contracted.

“Uchiha Tsukuyomi…”

As Obito uttered this name, his inner emotions were extremely complex.

This person was his mentor, and he should have been delighted by his achievements.

But his actions completely disrupted his plans.

These unpredictable and unpredictable events, beyond his control, have kept him up at night for the past few years.

"What exactly is that guy trying to do?"

Obito paced anxiously in the office.

In fact, the reason he came to Kirigakure and used genjutsu to control the Fourth Mizukage to start the inhumane "Bloody Mist Village" policy was not only to avenge the hatred of Kirigakure's ANBU for forcing Nohara Rin to her death;

An even more important reason is that he got "anxious"!

Uchiha Yue's power and influence were too great, like a Damocles' sword hanging over his head, greatly disrupting the "Eye of the Moon Plan".

The isolated, xenophobic, and closed-off Kirigakure village was undoubtedly the best choice for him to establish a private military factory and cash cow.
