The world I hear is completely different from yours.

Therefore, in the final Hokage selection, Minato Namikaze completely defeated the Uchiha clan's candidate with his perfect battle record.

It's no wonder that many Uchiha clan members grumbled in their hearts, "This is unfair!" and began to feel dissatisfied with Konoha.

But don't say that Hiruzen Sarutobi is biased, because this was not Hiruzen Sarutobi's decision alone, but a collective choice made by the entire Konoha leadership.

This brings up a historical issue within Konoha that has persisted since the time of the First Hokage: the Senju clan and other Konoha leaders have always harbored resentment over Madara Uchiha's betrayal, while the Uchiha clan is indignant about the Senju clan's control over the positions of successive Hokage.

Of course, Konoha was still the victor in the Third Shinobi World War, so on the surface everyone was still getting along well. However, since that incident, the Uchiha clan and Konoha Village have become increasingly divided.

This time, the arguments at the military conference were even more intense than before. This was because Konoha, under Amehara's leadership, was much stronger than in the original story, and therefore had more powerful individuals qualified to become Hokage. Consequently, even more people hoped to gain more merit in this great war.

Tian Qing frowned as she looked at the incessantly chattering elders, then coughed forcefully: "Cough cough!!"

When a tiger roars, which insect dares to utter a sound?

Instantly, the previously noisy hall fell silent, and all the elders and advisors turned to look at the Third Hokage, who was about to speak.

Tianqing looked at Uchiha Fugaku sitting to the side and asked directly, "Clan Chief Fugaku, Konoha is currently facing war. I wonder if your family is willing to do your part for Konoha?"

Here comes the main event! Fugaku Uchiha perked up and quickly looked up to reply, "As a member of Konoha, the Uchiha are naturally willing to contribute their share to Konoha. This is also the duty of the Konoha Police Force."

Within the Uchiha clan, there were many internal disagreements. Some believed that as members of the Konoha Police Force, staying in the village as police officers to maintain order was fine, as they didn't have to fight on the front lines. After all, even the greatest achievements required risking the lives of Uchiha clan members. Others, however, argued that some sacrifice was acceptable in order to gain merit and become the Fourth Hokage. Moreover, being a ninja was inherently a high-risk, high-mortality profession; if you were afraid of death, what kind of ninja would you be?

However, Tianqing didn't care whether the Uchiha clan had a unified opinion or not. In any case, it would be a huge waste not to use Konoha's powerful forces, so they naturally had to be fully utilized. Of course, it wouldn't work to suppress them too much and prevent them from making contributions, just like before. How could you make the horse run without feeding it?

Therefore, this time, the Uchiha clan will also send people to the front lines, and not only to the Land of Water, but also to battlefields in other countries.

PS: Bonus Chapter

Chapter Twenty-Six: She's a temporary worker, really, you guys believe me!

Just as the major powers, through continuous internal meetings, finally sorted out their internal contradictions and formulated battle plans to intervene militarily, the Land of Rain had already quickly skipped the stage of verbal sparring between the warring parties and was preparing to enter the stage of bloody battle.

When Yahiko first heard that Amegakure was about to mobilize all its forces to attack Akatsuki, he was completely dumbfounded.

As someone dedicated to achieving world peace through non-violent means, he was initially reluctant when he learned of the impending civil war with Amegakure. You can't expect him to immediately join a civil war just because you ask him to. First, he needed to investigate. He couldn't simply rely on the Amegakure's version of events; otherwise, they could easily embellish the evidence and pin all the blame on the Akatsuki. If he didn't investigate thoroughly, the Akatsuki members would later criticize him, claiming that there was no truth to the allegations, that it was all fabricated and disguised with special effects.

However, after investigating for a while, Yahiko reluctantly discovered that the truth was indeed as the Rain Ninja had said: the member who had just joined Akatsuki, Pakura, had indeed killed Hanzo, who was known as a "demigod," single-handedly killing a large number of Jonin, including Hanzo. Even Hanzo's mansion was mostly leveled, and the unfortunate, highly poisonous salamander's corpse had been reduced to several pieces of charred remains, still lying in its original spot.

Do not check, I don’t know, I’m scared.

After figuring out the truth, Yahiko burst into tears: "Damn it! Sister Yekura, if you're so powerful, why did you come all this way to join our pathetic little organization? Couldn't you have at least informed us before doing something so big, so we could run away? At least give us some mental preparation! Life's ups and downs are too much to handle!"

Yahiko wanted to explain to the Amegakure ninja that the murderer was actually just a temporary worker for the Akatsuki, and that the murderer's actions had nothing to do with the Akatsuki's intentions. In fact, the Akatsuki had always adhered to the action plan of cooperating and achieving win-win results with Amegakure and insisted on the action policy of peaceful coexistence with all ninja villages. It was a great and law-abiding organization.

Seriously, the person handling this matter is a temporary worker who was just recruited by Akatsuki, the kind of temporary worker who didn't even complete his first test mission after joining the organization. I'm not making this up, you guys believe me!! Yahiko shouted in his heart.

Unfortunately, the other side had no intention of giving Yahiko any time or opportunity to explain. Less than ten minutes after Yahiko discovered the truth, a large number of Rain Ninja, brandishing their weapons, charged towards the Akatsuki's stronghold in battle formation, hacking at anyone they saw and shouting that they would not take prisoners and would kill all the Akatsuki members.

Caught completely off guard by this swift and sudden attack, the Akatsuki organization was thrown into chaos. At this time, the Akatsuki was far from the terrifying organization of later generations, filled with super-skilled individuals. Only Yahiko, Nagato, and Konan possessed any real fighting ability; the rest were mostly ordinary wandering ninja with little combat prowess. Coupled with their complete lack of prior preparation—many hadn't even brought weapons—they were no match for the well-prepared Rain Ninja.

"Ah!! Help!!" An Akatsuki member was slashed to the ground in the chaos. Then, amidst his screams, a Rain Ninja rushed up without hesitation, wielding a huge spiked club and began to beat him mercilessly until he was as broken as a piece of bloody tofu, with blood splattering everywhere!

At this point, Yahiko had completely understood that investigating whether it was an Akatsuki member who killed Hanzo on his own was no longer important. What mattered was how he could lead the Akatsuki to survive in this war.

After all, they were still young and did not have enough strength to fight against so many Rain Ninja at the same time. Nagato did not know how to unleash his potential at this time, and Konan did not have the extraordinary paper art ninjutsu that she would later possess. Therefore, the only thing they could do in this civil war was to try their best to preserve the Akatsuki organization's flame and not let the Akatsuki be completely wiped out.

There are many ways to preserve the organization's flame.

If the roles were reversed, and Danzo were in charge of the Akatsuki organization, which was currently embroiled in bloodshed, then in order to preserve the Akatsuki's flame, Danzo would not hesitate to immediately break out with the other two core members of the organization, abandoning the peripheral members who were fighting bloody battles outside, and using them as cannon fodder to draw fire.

As long as the core members of the organization are present, a new Akatsuki can be established at any time, and a new batch of peripheral members can be recruited. After all, with enough power and reward, recruiting a group of ordinary wandering ninjas is not difficult. This is the most effective and convenient way to preserve the organization's flame, but it is also extremely realistic and cold-blooded.

However, Yahiko would not choose this path. As a young man, he still retains his passion and cherishes his fellow members in the organization. He has not degenerated into a ruthless political opportunist who only cares about his goals and will stop at nothing to achieve them.

Therefore, he made the exact opposite choice.

Yahiko drew his weapon and said without hesitation, "Nagato, Konan, you two lead the men to break through and retreat first. I'll cover the rear!!" Then he strode towards the battlefield with a death-defying spirit, just like Garen who shouted "I'll lead the charge!" and charged alone towards the high ground tower guarded by the five enemy players! And this was Garen who had built all offensive items and no defensive items at all!

Konan grabbed Yahiko, saying, "Yahiko, don't go and die!"

Seriously, didn't you have any sense of self-awareness before doing something so impulsive? It's unacceptable to throw your life away like a delivery driver!

Just as Yahiko was about to say something, Nagato Yuki, who had been looking down at her book, closed it, looked up at Yahiko and Konan, and said quietly, "I'll go too."

Ever since arriving in this world, Nagato had been constantly speculating about Haruhi Suzumiya's purpose in sending her here. However, after witnessing Yahiko's actions, Nagato suddenly realized that this hot-blooded young man was exactly the kind of protagonist found in shonen manga! Wasn't this kind of passionate, classic story exactly the kind of manga plot Haruhi Suzumiya loved?

Nagato Yuki immediately understood. It turned out that Suzumiya Haruhi wanted to see a story about a passionate young man, so she sent herself to this world to assist the protagonist, so that the protagonist's entrepreneurial journey would not be interrupted halfway.

So Nagato looked at Yahiko and Konan and said once again, "I'll go with you too."

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

P.S. I'm going to see the live-action Gintama tonight, so there probably won't be any updates.

I can't wait to see the cutest Kagura perform, and I'm so excited to see how she'll portray that "Aru" line! O(∩_∩)O haha~

I've already seen the live-action version of Gintama.

After watching a movie and getting home, I always feel like saying something.

I admit that the Gintoki in the film is very faithful to the original and captures Gintoki's essence well. The humor in the film is also quite good. However, the fight scenes in the film are really awkward. The fight scenes in the anime are not this drawn out. If the budget is insufficient, then don't make the Benizakura Arc.

The hand-to-hand combat between Gintoki and Takasugi at the end of the film was particularly awkward for me. They were supposed to be two superhuman warriors, so was that really wrestling?

I remember after Takasugi fell to the ground, the girls behind me all exclaimed, "Look at those long, white legs!!"

I'm so angry I could grind my teeth! Believe me or not, I'll show you my hairy, Elizabethan-style thighs!

Most importantly, why isn't Kagura's voice voiced by Kugimiya Rie?! It's just a resemblance in appearance; without that Kugimiya feel, I simply can't accept it!!

That chubby girl definitely isn't Kagura!!

But I still recommend everyone to watch this movie. Yes, I still recommend everyone to watch it. (laughs)

Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Ultraman Mask Possessing the Strongest Talk-no-Jutsu

If an ordinary boy wants to start from scratch as a commoner orphan, gather followers and accumulate resources, gradually grow into the leader of a small organization, then continuously expand his power, eliminate all the princes and nobles around him who don't like him, and finally become the overlord who unifies the world and achieves world unification and peace, what is the most important thing he needs?

Does it require unparalleled martial prowess like that of a certain bald, caped man?

No matter what enemy he encounters, whether it's a street thug, a manipulator of the city's underground black market, the Hydra organization that secretly controls the entire country, the terrifying emperor Frieza who is launching a massive invasion of Earth, or the ultimate anti-spiral race, the strongest in the universe, who has sworn to destroy all spiral forces, he can easily crush his opponent with a single punch—this absolute power.

Or does it require exceptional intelligence and strategy like that of Colonel Chu Xuan?

Under the wise eyes of this sage, everything is the truth. With just a glance, one can instantly deduce which of the hundreds of people before him is the bloodthirsty murderer who committed numerous crimes a few years ago and fled, which is the superhero Melon Man who came from the M87 Nebula to track down the murderer, and which is the victim who will die under the concrete ice cream in three minutes and twenty-four seconds.

Or perhaps it requires the ultimate protagonist halo like Long Aotian?

Under this ultimate protagonist halo, all the enemies encountered are idiots, only lining up to deliver equipment and experience to the player. It's truly a case of "starting with only one dog, all equipment is obtained through drops," and the only regret is that the enemies aren't coming faster than expected. At the same time, the player possesses extreme luck: getting struck by lightning and finding a divine artifact and an old man, jumping off a cliff and finding a divine artifact and an old man, even finding a divine artifact and an old man while eating a breakfast bun, and even finding a divine artifact and an old man in the toilet while using the restroom.

Or perhaps they need the harem aura of a cowardly male protagonist, like in some Japanese novels?

With this harem aura, even the most introverted, cowardly, ugly fat otaku doesn't need to flirt or constantly try to win a girl's favor. With just a glance, he can instantly make a girl fall in love at first sight. Then, he can build a harem by relying on his eyes, conquer one woman after another, and then rely on these women to conquer the world, reigning supreme as the ultimate white-faced king who lives off women.

Regarding these claims, the renowned scholar Confucius exclaimed: "Go to hell! All those heretical doctrines from the military, legalist, Taoist, and Yin-Yang schools are utterly useless. They can only appease most people outwardly, not inwardly, and can only maintain peace temporarily. Sooner or later, conflict and war will inevitably erupt. The true key to achieving world peace through unification is the benevolent heart of a true ruler! In other words, it's about winning people over with virtue!"

"So how can one win people over with virtue?" In the previous world, Nagato, who was playing a game, pointed to this option on the computer and asked Haruhi Suzumiya.

"Simply put, it means you have to keep talking and brainwashing everyone until they are convinced of your worth. That's how you win people over with virtue," Haruhi Suzumiya said confidently.

I wonder if Confucius, inside the coffin, would jump out in anger after hearing this explanation and show Haruhi Suzumiya what the anger of a gentleman truly means.

However, Nagato Yuki believed Haruhi Suzumiya's words. Why? Because even the gods said so, so naturally she couldn't disbelieve them.

So, to Yahiko and Konan's surprise, Nagato took out an Ultraman mask and handed it to Yahiko—a mask she had bought with Haruhi Suzumiya when they attended a festival some years ago, and which Nagato had always cherished and carried with her—gesturing for Yahiko to put it on.

"Huh? You want me to fight wearing this mask?" Yahiko

"Automatic persuasion mode. Once you put it on, you can access my information modification capabilities and quickly use your words to boost the trust and respect of those around you." Nagato spoke softly, using technical terms that Yahiko and Konan couldn't understand at all.

Although Yahiko was puzzled, he hesitated for a moment under Nagato's calm gaze before putting on the mask.

"Speaking of which, after putting on this mask, my vision has become much smaller because of the mask's obstruction. This is not very advantageous for the battle later on," Yahiko muttered. However, since it was a gift from his close friend Nagato, he was too embarrassed to take it off immediately.

Bang! !

Suddenly, the conference room door was violently flung open, and two dark figures rushed in—two Jonin from Amegakure!

Holding blood-stained weapons, they grinned maliciously as they pounced on Yahiko and Konan, who were standing there. Their movements were as fast as lightning, and their attacks were clean and swift. They carried an air of "do or die" and were determined to avenge Hanzo, who had been assassinated!

Caught off guard, Yahiko and Konan had no time to make any defensive moves!

Just as the two were about to be seriously injured by the sneak attack of the two Rain Ninja, Yahiko shouted, "Stop!!"

At this critical moment, Yahiko deeply regretted his powerlessness, not out of anger at his impending death, but out of regret for his weakness and inability to protect Konan. He could only utter his voice, a mixture of anger and regret, in this final moment.

Ultraman mask special feature: The ultimate talk-no-jutsu activated!

In that instant, the two Rain Ninja actually stopped attacking and simultaneously twisted their bodies, which were still in mid-air. However, because they had exerted too much force and could not stop, in order not to hurt Yahiko and Konan, the two Rain Ninja disregarded their own safety and used each other's strength to bounce away, crashing into the empty wall next to them!

*Thump!* The immense impact of slamming into the wall instantly drew blood from the mouths of the two Rain Ninja, but they paid no heed. Their eyes gleamed as they rushed forward, kneeling respectfully before Yahiko, their faces filled with adoration. "Teacher Yahiko, what you just said was truly wonderful!! It showed us the true meaning of life, filling our lives with sunshine once more. Please accept us as your disciples! From now on, we are willing to go through fire and water for you!!"

Yahiko: "......"

Huh? Did I just say something? Yahiko thought back carefully. He realized he had only said "Stop!" Is that all you've got? How shallow is your understanding of life?

Perhaps finding the scene before him too strange, Yahiko decided to ask again to find out if the two ninjas in front of him had suddenly suffered a brain hemorrhage, causing their personalities to reverse and they to lay down their weapons and become Buddhas on the spot?

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

P.S. Sorry for the late update, dear readers.

Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Green-Colored Overbearing Power of the Naruto World

Yahiko, weapon in hand, assumed a defensive stance, protecting Konan and Nagato behind him. Then, he cautiously addressed the two Rain Ninja who were kneeling respectfully before him, their mouths still wet with blood: "What are you doing?"

Ultraman mask special feature: The ultimate talk-no-jutsu is activated once again!

boom!!

In the eyes of those two Rain Ninja, Yahiko, who had uttered the question, "What are you doing?", suddenly radiated a divine light, with a pair of pure white wings fluttering behind him! He seemed like an angel sent from heaven to save them; his holy eyes, his sincere words, and his philosophical statement, "What are you doing?"—what a profound statement! Just hearing it once again elevated their souls!

Immediately, the two Rain Ninja were moved to tears: "Lord Yahiko, what you said is so wonderful! To hear such profound words, we feel that it would be worth dying for you right now!"

Yahiko's face darkened: "......."

What the hell did I just say that had a deeper meaning? It was just a simple question: "What are you guys doing?" What's so special about that? You guys think it's worth dying for just because you heard that? Seriously, your lives are just too tragic.

"I understand!" A Rain Ninja shouted loudly, as if he had just understood something. He quickly said, "I understand the meaning of what Lord Yahiko said just now! The word 'you' in Lord Yahiko's words was actually Lord Yahiko referring to all the Rain Ninjas, because Lord Yahiko only had the world and all living beings in his eyes, not just the two of us!"

"The word 'this' actually represents Lord Yahiko's reprimand. Lord Yahiko doesn't like the killing we just did, but the merciful Lord Yahiko doesn't want to directly reprimand us, so he used such a euphemistic way of speaking. And the words 'what to do' are Lord Yahiko's instructions on what we really need to do next, which is to take immediate action and stop the war in front of us!!"

Suddenly, another Rain Ninja looked enlightened, and the two Rain Ninjas, having grasped the true meaning of the prophet Yahiko's words, shed tears of joy and embraced each other happily!

Yahiko's face was filled with disbelief: "...............Eh?"
