The world I hear is completely different from yours.

A coffin nearby suddenly opened with a thud!

This time, the coffin contains a red-haired boy, a genius puppeteer, Sasori of the Red Sand!

Scorpion opened his eyes, revealing a domineering and cool gaze, and said calmly, "The human world has become filthy again."

Overwhelmingly powerful! Perfect! NICE! The ninjas summoned by this Edo Tensei are perfectly normal; it seems my Edo Tensei was completely successful!

Kabuto adjusted his glasses, a cold glint flashing in them. There was only one truth: the reason this woman named Yekura seemed so goofy was entirely due to her own actions! She was a goofball by nature!!

............................

Yekura stood on the hillside, waiting for the Allied Shinobi Forces that were heading this way from afar, the information that Kabuto Yakushi had told her flashing through her mind.

Towards the end of the Third Shinobi World War, when Sunagakure was preparing for a decisive battle with Iwagakure, in order to prevent Kirigakure from launching a sneak attack, the Fourth Kazekage, Rasa, made a deal with the Kirigakure leadership: he exchanged the life of Sunagakure hero Pakura for Kirigakure's promise not to send troops.

"So, the last 'secret mission' I received was just a trap set for myself?" Yecang muttered to himself. If the determination to take revenge on other villages was the powerful driving force for gaining power, then what if the target of revenge was his own village?

The current time is the Fourth Shinobi World War. He has been resurrected by a bespectacled, snake-like monster named Kabuto Yakushi using the Impure World Reincarnation technique, and is being used to fight against the Allied Shinobi Forces, which are composed of various shinobi villages.

So what should I do? Should I seek revenge? If so, should I seek revenge against the Mist Ninja or the Sand Ninja?

Yecang rubbed his head in distress. He wasn't usually such an indecisive person, but for some reason, after dying once, his personality seemed to have changed. According to the snake-like monster with glasses, he had become a bit of a goofball.

Just as Yekura was in deep distress, a gentle male voice rang out: "In the name of Uchiha Itachi, the Impure World Reincarnation Release!!"

Suddenly, Yecang found his body turning into ashes and scattering away, and all he could see was darkness!

"Eh!!! What's going on? Why am I going to die again? This is so inhumane!"

Yekura opened her eyes for the third time.

This time, Yekura found herself transformed back into a little girl, reborn as a child.

"This time, I'm not going to care about Sand Village or Kirigakure anymore. Now I'm only living for myself!" Yecang told herself. "Anyway, I already know what will happen in the next few decades. Why should I worry about not getting the benefits? My life is going to be smooth sailing from now on!"

Yecang climbed out of bed, walked to the window, and looked at the night sky over the Sand Village. He wondered what the moonlight would be like tonight.

Beneath the full moon, a milky-white Gundam floated atop the Kazekage office building, followed by a dazzling beam of light!

Tianqing: "Absolute Gravity Cannon!!!"

As Yekura stared blankly, the Kazekage's office building turned to ashes.

"Huh?!!!! Did something like this really happen when I was a kid?" Yekura's eyes widened. "Is this really the Naruto world I lived in?"

My new computer is broken.

My computer crashed again. I can't start it up no matter how many times I press the power button. I'm totally dumbfounded. I even used my neighbor's computer to send this notification.

Why is my computer, which I just bought not long ago, already having problems again?

I don't download those weird movies, I don't visit those weird websites, and no one has even sent me those "Macau live casino beautiful dealers" advertising emails, so how did I get a virus?

Didn't I already have Rising Antivirus installed on my computer?

Speechless. I went to get my computer repaired this morning, so the update will be this afternoon. Dear readers, please be patient.

Interlude* continues: from a villain who steals money from children to the mastermind behind the scenes.

After the beam of light that leveled the Kazekage's office building appeared in the Sand Village, Pakura, who was reborn back to her childhood, discovered that the development of this world was deviating more and more from the history she remembered.

The next day, Yekura tied a white ribbon and went to the cemetery to attend the burial ceremony of the Second Kazekage.

Just last night, the Second Kazekage died. He was brutally blasted to death by a single beam of light in his secret laboratory hundreds of meters below the Kazekage's office building, without even a chance to demonstrate the results of his training to others. It wasn't until after the air raid, when the Sand Shinobi were exploring the huge, deep hole, that they discovered the Second Kazekage's remains at the bottom, reduced to scattered fragments, confirming his death.

But in Yecang's memory, the Second Kazekage clearly only passed away after he had mastered the Sand Control Technique and spent several years with the elders until the Sand Control Technique was completely improved and perfected.

At the funeral, Yekura saw many "acquaintances" she would know in the future.

For example, Macchi, Macchi, and Macchi.

Damn it! When the Fourth Kazekage gave me that suicide mission, Maki, you were standing right behind him, weren't you? And you even colluded with him to force me to accept that mission. Looking back now, that half-masked, miserable face of yours, you were utterly heartless!! We were supposed to be friends and comrades, Maki, you didn't even warn me, just stood by and watched me die? Fine, I'll remember you now!!

As Jonin Maki was bowing in respect, he suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.

At the funeral, the future Third Kazekage delivered a speech, announcing an unconditional ceasefire with the Sand Village, thus allowing the Land of Wind to withdraw from the Second Shinobi World War ahead of schedule.

However, in Yekura's memory, during the Second Shinobi World War, the Land of Wind was fighting other countries in the Land of Rain first, and it wasn't until the following year that Konoha invaded the Land of Wind and forced the Sand Village to cease hostilities. But how come now, before the fighting even started in the Land of Rain, Konoha has already reached the gates of the Sand Village and forced them to stop fighting?

As for the Third Kazekage, who was known as the "Strongest Kazekage," his strength was indeed considerable, but unfortunately, he was short-lived. He was killed at a young age by a junior, and his body was turned into a human puppet, becoming a weapon to aid evil. His disappearance became the fuse for the Third Shinobi World War, which was a truly massive tragedy.

Of course, Yekura was just sighing. She had already made up her mind that in this life she would no longer live for the village, but only for herself, so she had no intention of reminding the Third Kazekage.

...............................

Years later, young Luo Xiao, the future fourth-generation Wind Shadow, cautiously clutched his schoolbag and hid in a small alley. Then, he turned around and was horrified to find a man in black wearing a crow mask standing in the alley: "Help!! Black-hearted Crow is here!!"

Unfortunately, when the other Sand Ninja arrived, they only found Luo Xiao lying on the ground with a bruised and swollen face, having been severely beaten, and his wallet had been stolen.

In a nearby alley, Yekura removed her crow mask and began counting her spoils: "It really was the best thing ever—beating up the Fourth Kazekage! ~(≧▽≦)/~! Speaking of which, Luo Xiao is definitely the elder's son; he has a lot of pocket money!!"

"Ye Cang, I feel like you're getting more and more perverted. Do you find it so enjoyable to bully children and steal their money?" Scorpion said with a disdainful look.

"Smashing newbies is fun, of course! If you're not happy, then don't take your share!" Ye Cang retorted. "If it weren't for you, the elder disciple, tipping me off, how could I have succeeded so many times?"

Black Crow is a terrifying demon that has appeared in Sand Village over the years, a perpetual nightmare for all Sand Village children. Regardless of who the victim is, Black Crow treats everyone equally, beating them up before stealing their wallets, showing no regard for their identity whatsoever. Those who will become future leaders of Sand Village are especially targeted.

"This is retribution for trading my life with Kirigakure back then," Ye Cang muttered. After giving the future Fourth Kazekage a sound beating, she felt exceptionally good. Even when she thought about her past misfortunes, she didn't feel so uncomfortable anymore. "I wonder if Luo Xiao will develop a psychological trauma from being beaten up like this and be afraid to get married and have children?"

As for Sasori's intention to provide information, Yekura was also very clear. Only when Black Crow beat up all the other "geniuses" and "prodigies" in the village could Sasori's special qualities as the only genius who "repelled" Black Crow be highlighted, so that Sasori could climb further up the ladder.

"Speaking of which, this red-haired guy is quite ruthless. No wonder he was able to so decisively poison and kill the Third Kazekage later on." Yekura pondered the information about the future in her mind. As someone who was reborn shortly after being resurrected by Kabuto Yakushi using the Impure World Reincarnation technique, her information was limited to the fact that "the mastermind behind Akatsuki was Uchiha Madara." She knew nothing about what happened after that.

"How much of this historical intelligence that I remember can still be considered reliable?"

Putting everything else aside, why is the Third Hokage, who was originally an old man, now being a girl named Tensei? And is the Konoha Village, where everyone is developing puppet technology, really the Konoha I remember?

Yecang suddenly developed a strong interest in this Third Hokage named Tenharu. She was the one who killed the Second Kazekage, the one who led the army into the Land of Wind, and the one who, after becoming Hokage, extensively developed various strange puppet weapons in Konoha. Why is it that in all the places that don't correspond to the original history, her figure can be traced back to the source?

"Maybe I should join that organization called Akatsuki and borrow their strength," Yekura thought to himself.

..............................

In a cave in the Land of Wind, Sasori stared longingly at the corpse of the Third Kazekage: "Ah!! These muscles! The feel of this skin! And this unique way of using blood chakra!! Third Hokage, you will surely become my most perfect work of art!!"

Yekura couldn't stand it anymore: "Speaking of which, Sasori, have you noticed that you've become more and more perverted lately? You're actually getting horny over a naked male corpse."

"Shut up! You foolish woman, what do you know about art! Look closely at the outstanding works of art throughout history, aren't they all depicting the naked body? That's the artistic beauty of the human form!!"

Okay, Yekura shrugs, indicating she simply can't understand such extreme art. But now that the Third Kazekage is dead, shouldn't the Third Shinobi World War begin soon?

Well then, it's time for me to make my move, Third Hokage, Ame-chan?

Chapter Nine Tsunade: Why do women have to make things difficult for other women?

It was almost noon, the time when people who had worked all morning were having lunch.

"I'm home! Little brother, I'm hungry, I want to eat!" Tsunade pushed open her front door and shouted inside, but no one answered her; the house was silent.

"Did Nawaki go out on a mission today?" Tsunade muttered to herself as she walked inside. Then, as if remembering something, she turned back to the little girl who was following her and said, "Shizune, come in. It's quite empty here, why don't you just move in and live with me from now on?"

The little girl with black hair nodded timidly: "Yes, Lady Tsunade."

"Sigh!" Tsunade couldn't help but smile wryly. "I really have no experience taking care of children. Why did Tensei suddenly give me a disciple?"

Just this morning, after the Konoha Cabinet meeting, the Third Hokage, Tensei, suddenly stopped the newly joined elders, the "Legendary Sannin" Orochimaru and Tsunade, and handed them a stack of photos: "Didn't the Cabinet approve a new blood training plan for Konoha? As elders of the village, shouldn't you Sannin set an example by taking on a disciple?"

"Oh, okay." Orochimaru replied in his deep voice, agreeing with unusual decisiveness: "I'll choose this child named Anko."

"What's going on? Orochimaru has changed his ways today? This guy who was always obsessed with experiments is actually so willing to take on a disciple?" Tsunade looked at Orochimaru with an incredulous expression. If it weren't for her woman's intuition telling her that the Orochimaru in front of her was the real deal, she would have really had the urge to go up and rip off his mask.

"Wait!" Tsunade suddenly realized that Orochimaru hadn't even looked at those photos, so why was he able to directly choose a girl named Anko?

Tsunade scanned Tensei and Orochimaru with a suspicious look: "You two, didn't you already agree to adopt a disciple beforehand? Are you just bringing it up in front of me now to force me to adopt a disciple too?"

After stating her conjecture, Tsunade immediately stared intently at the expressions of the two people opposite her, hoping to glean a clue.

Tianqing still wore a professional smile, a smile so pure, like an innocent girl next door, making everyone who saw her feel like a spring breeze. Even Tsunade herself couldn't help but wonder if she was judging others by her own petty standards.

Damn it! As expected of the strongest person in the village, that smile is practically cheating! I can't see any flaws at all, no wonder you can make Sarutobi-sensei admit defeat! Speaking of which, Ame-haru, you're a woman too, why are women making things difficult for each other?

Tsunade shifted her gaze from Tensei to Orochimaru.

Orochimaru, as before, had a blank, zombie-like face, but when he saw Tsunade looking at him, he stuck out his long tongue and licked his lips.

Eek!!! That looks disgusting, it scared me to death! Seriously, Orochimaru, when did your tongue get so long? It wasn't this long before! Can tongues be trained to grow longer the more you lick them?

Imagining Orochimaru, whose tongue would grow longer and longer through training, licking her with his tongue several meters long, Tsunade couldn't help but shudder. Was the prestigious title of "Legendary Sannin" about to be overshadowed by "Legendary Long-Tongued Monster of Konoha"?

"Ahem!" Seeing that Tsunade remained silent, Tensei coughed loudly, reminding Tsunade that she should at least give an answer, whether she would accept him or not.

"Okay, I'll take them!" Tsunade snapped to attention. Since the other two of the Sannin had taken on disciples, she naturally couldn't escape as well. She snatched the stack of photos from Ameyo's hand, and after carefully selecting one, she chose it: "This child named Shizune will do!"

..........

Passing through a series of vacant houses, Tsunade led Shizune toward her room, worrying about what to have for them for lunch.

"Now I'm starting to envy Jiraiya a little. He chose a genius like Minato as his disciple so early on. After Minato became a Jonin, he used the excuse that he had completed his mission to leave the village and go off to play freely, and the other elders couldn't say anything!" Tsunade thought helplessly. "Sometimes I also want to go out and travel by myself."

However, Tsunade quickly dismissed the idea. Her younger brother, Senju Nawaki, was still young, and as the eldest sister and leader of the Senju clan, she naturally had to shoulder the clan's reputation. How could she abandon everything and leave the village?

In the original story, Tsunade, who lost her lover and younger brother during the Second Shinobi World War, developed a phobia of blood and left the village in despair. However, this time, because Ame-no-Kage swiftly defeated the Land of Wind, Konoha avoided several wars. Therefore, although Tsunade's lover still died, her younger brother, Senju Nawaki, survived. As a result, Tsunade no longer suffered from a phobia of blood and, to care for her brother, remained in Konoha, becoming an elder in the Konoha Cabinet.

"Should I hire some maids or something?" Tsunade looked at the empty mansion and realized that she had indeed neglected this aspect before.

As the ninja clan that founded Konoha Village, the Senju clan is now in decline, to the point that only Tsunade and Nawaki, two young people of the new generation, remain in the entire Senju clan territory; the rest are ordinary people without any ninja talent. Although they still bear the Senju surname and still live near the Senju clan territory, even they themselves do not consider themselves qualified to call themselves members of the Senju clan.

Without the power of the Senju, one is not qualified to inherit the name of the Senju; this is a common rule in the ninja world.

"It smells so good! Looks like we've got lunch sorted for today!" Tsunade smelled the aroma wafting from the kitchen in the hallway and quickly ran over with Shizune.

"Lady Tsunade, you're back?" Kushina said to Tsunade as she was distributing bowls and chopsticks.

"Kushina? Is Minato back?" Tsunade asked somewhat awkwardly. Kushina, as the Jinchūriki who succeeded her grandmother Mito Uzumaki, had lived here for a long time, so Tsunade naturally knew that Kushina's cooking wasn't nearly as delicious.

Therefore, this meal was naturally prepared by someone else, and the person who would take the initiative to cook for Kushina should be Minato Namikaze, who has been pursuing Kushina intensely recently, right?

Compared to his master Jiraiya, Minato's skills in wooing women were far superior. He truly was a genius; even his pursuit of girlfriends was a natural talent!

"I'm actually a little envious of Jiraiya!" Tsunade said with a wry smile, picking up her chopsticks from the table.
