Karin stared blankly at her hands: This… the rebounding elasticity had a contradictory texture; even though I was holding her, it felt like she was sucking me in and enveloping me! Damn it…!

She adjusted her glasses expressionlessly, the lenses reflecting the light, and said, "Speaking of Hinata... you're so easily teased, will you be able to handle it if you really become Naruto's wife?"

"I, I..." Hinata's face was almost bleeding.

Xiaoxue shook her head helplessly and stopped her, saying, "Karin, please stop bullying Hinata."

Yumu astutely observed, "I think Karin must be jealous..."

"Nanananananananani...?" Karin adjusted her glasses with trembling hands. "I...I...I wasn't jealous of those two people, and besides, that person wouldn't do something like this..."

"Oh...you guys seem to be having a really lively conversation, may I join in?"

Just then, a mature and intellectual voice rang out beside the hot spring pool. Everyone looked over and saw a beautiful woman with long blue hair, serene orange eyes, a lip piercing, and fair skin walking out of the mist!

The women exclaimed in surprise, "Sister Nan!?"

Xiaoxue said, "I invited Sister Xiaonan back. Father will be performing that technique soon, and this is to prevent Sister Xiaonan from being affected as well."

The bath towel slowly slid off, and Xiao Nan sat by the hot spring pool. She first put her two jade-like feet in, then her calves and knees, and after slowly getting used to the water temperature, she let her waist and above immerse herself in the water. The warmth enveloped her whole body, and Xiao Nan's fair skin turned red.

Splash!

As Konan cleansed her body, she calmly said, "Before coming here, I just intercepted some intelligence. The largest anti-ninja armed group in the world, 'Evil Root,' is planning to launch an unprecedented attack during this new Kage inauguration ceremony!"

Chapter 883: Killing the gods in the underworld, making sure decisions

In the Twin Moon Space, in the Grand Canyon, beneath the Divine Tree, Yu and Tobirama drink together.

You might think that time is a long time, but the last time Yu came to the Twin Moon Space was only half a year ago in the real world. In the Twin Moon Space, where the time flow is ten times faster, it is only five years.

Therefore, Yu's purpose in coming here was not to extend Tobirama's life, but to explain some things.

After explaining the whole story, Yu said solemnly, "Uncle Tobirama, this is my request."

"Has the situation become this dire...?" Tobirama held his sake cup, falling into a long silence.

Yu emphasized again, "I will take care of this matter quietly before Long Shi arrives. If anything goes wrong, just do as I have arranged."

Tobirama tilted his head back and drank the wine in his cup, then placed the empty cup aside. His gaze was deep as he said, "Perhaps... it doesn't have to be that bad. At least we still have a way out. We can abandon the land of Mitsuki and lay low for now! When we are strong enough, we can face the Ryushiki!"

Yu pondered, "Leaving aside how much time this method can buy us, facing the Dragon Form, we have no chance of winning except by going all in and fighting with our backs to the wall!"

Tobirama looked up at the towering Divine Tree and asked, "What if you consumed the Chakra Fruit from the Divine Tree?"

Yu shook his head and said, "To consume the Chakra Fruit of the Divine Tree, one must first become an Otsutsuki. This is the rule. To become an Otsutsuki, one must obtain the 'Karma' and master that power..."

Tobirama said, "Then abandon the 'Karma' of the Ryushiki and choose a relatively easier target! The Ryushiki will attack in 'two years'! The Chakra Fruit will ripen in 'two and a half years,' at which time we will completely withdraw from Mitsuki Country! Use every means to hold out for half a year! The fruit will ripen, and after you eat the fruit, you can fight the Ryushiki again!"

Gudong!Gudong!

Yu took a big gulp of wine.

Yu had thought of this method as well.

This should be the safest way to defeat the Dragon Style!

But... there are reasons why it cannot be done!

“If the strongest enemy we face in the future is only the Ryu-shiki... then Tobirama-san’s method might not be a bad idea.”

"Hmm?" Tobirama stared intently.

Yu explained the reason: "No matter how strong Long Shi is, he is at most one of the best among the younger generation of the Otsutsuki clan, but what we are facing is the entire Otsutsuki clan!"

"If we don't find the 'optimal solution' at every step, it won't work! Even if we take shortcuts and get through the Dragon Formation, how will we face those beings even stronger than the Dragon Formation in the future!"

"..." Tobirama refilled his cup and pondered, "Future problems can be solved in the future. No matter how lofty your goals are, you must first get through this hurdle..."

"Sigh." Yu Shen sighed, voicing his deepest concern: "We can escape anywhere, but we can't escape this Twin Moon Space, this divine tree..."

"!?!" Tobirama was suddenly shocked.

Back then, the Ninja Kingdom's top warriors came here as a group to explore the wilderness and once fought against 'Radiant Moon'!

Kaguya Otsutsuki, the second princess of the main clan, is a user of two Devil Fruits. Her status and strength far surpass those of Kaguya!

The danger of that battle was no less than that of the Battle of Jianzhou!

With a clone of the 'Animal Path' left over from a thousand years ago, Kaguya Hikaru drove the Ninja Kingdom's top warriors to the brink of defeat!

When that clone died in battle, he boasted that someone would come after them.

She didn't name names, but who doesn't know now... that Long Shi is Huiyue's most prized subordinate!

Without a doubt, Long Shi also knew of the existence of the Twin Moon Space, and even had the ability to find it!

If, two years later, the Dragon Clan arrives in the Land of Seeing the Moon and cannot find the true master... they will inevitably point the finger at the Twin Moon Space!

The consequence was that the Ninja Kingdom's ten-year plan to cultivate the Divine Tree failed, and Yu lost the Chakra Fruit he was about to harvest, losing all hope for the future!

That was catastrophic!

Therefore, from any perspective, Yu and the ninja nation he leads must directly confront Ryushiki in two years!

"..." Tobirama was powerless to refute this reality. He raised his sake cup and drank it all in one gulp: "I understand. Two years from now, if the worst happens, I will do as you say!"

Yu sincerely said, "Uncle Tobirama, thank you..."

"Big brother~~!!"

A call was like a gentle breeze. Fireworks, with its sleeves fluttering, came joyfully. Star and Moon followed at a leisurely pace. After five years of training in the Twin Moon Space, both of them had entered their twenties.

Yu's gloom vanished, and she smiled, saying, "Fireworks, Star Moon, you've all grown up..."

"Hehe." Hanabi blushed slightly, tugged at Yu's sleeve, and said coquettishly, "Don't rush back, stay here with me, okay~".

Yu couldn't refuse Hanabi, and thought to herself that this parting... would mean a twenty-year wait for the latter.

"Alright, big brother will stay here with you for a while..."

"Great!"

……

The Land of Seeing the Moon is an island in the outer sea.

Angen, the headquarters of the largest anti-ninja armed group in the ninja world today!

Deep within the cave, candlesticks stood side by side, extending to the foot of a high platform on the other side. The flickering flames were eerie, and a large number of black-robed and masked men stood along the path, creating a sinister and eerie scene!

On the high platform, at the center of a large-scale ritual, there was a coffin and a 'White Zetsu' that had been captured there!

"Sixteen years of hard work... and finally this sacred moment has arrived!"

The leader, a man in black robes, stood with a fanatical expression, his hands forming a hand seal and pressing them onto the table!

—Ninja Art: Impure World Reincarnation!

"Ughhhhhh...!"

White Zetsu let out a shrill scream, and dust rose up, transforming into the cracked body of 'Shimura Danzo'!

Danzo slowly opened his eyes, looked at the unfamiliar face before him, and said in a deep voice, "Who are you?"

The man in black robes bowed and prostrated himself, saying, "Lord Danzo, I am the former head of the outer circle of Konoha Root, 'Tsuchimon.' I firmly believe that only you, Lord Danzo, can change this ninja world. After you were assassinated by the villain 'Uchiha Yu,' I have been secretly active, hoping to rise again!"

Danzo asked, "Then why... did you only wake me up now?"

Tsuchimon said, “The time is not yet ripe! After Lord Danzo's fall, Root was leaderless and became easy prey. I foresaw this, so I collected your remains and established ‘Dark Root,’ biding our time and waiting for the opportunity to revive! Now… we have finally accumulated enough power to rise up. Long live Lord Danzo!!!”

Wow!!

The men in black robes bowed deeply, their voices booming: "Long live Lord Danzo!!!"

The candlelight flickered, and a dark smile appeared on Danzo's lips: "Very good..."

Tsuchimono moved his knees forward and presented the scroll with both hands: "The sixteen years you were absent, the changes in the ninja world, are all written in this scroll... Please take a look!"

Danzo took the scroll and read it.

Tumen Chief said at the opportune moment: "The Dark Roots have already seized a large number of 'guns' scattered among the people, and while the Ninja Kingdom is internally vulnerable [during the Battle of Jianzhou], they have planted a large number of spies in the cities. The Three Kage's inauguration ceremony is the perfect time to make their move!!"

The leaves that once basked in sunlight have long since turned into spring mud, but the roots in the darkness still stir with restless energy...

Chapter 884 The Slaughter of Gods in the Underworld, the Whole Nation Goes into Madness

The inauguration ceremony for the three Kage was originally planned to be held in the central cities of the three vassal states, but it was changed at the last minute and held uniformly in Yuhuang City. Afterwards, the three new Kage rode in their respective carriages and traveled through the three corridors of the Ninja Kingdom from the east, west and north to the main city to take up their posts!

The official purpose of this move was to understand the people's sentiments and lay the groundwork for future work, but in reality... it was to disrupt the plans of those treacherous villains!

In Feather Emperor City, on three high platforms built for ceremonies, hang three flags representing 'Wind', 'Water', and 'Earth'!

Although Sunagakure, Kirigakure, and Iwagakure have long since established their own sects, they have not forgotten their origins, and the old names of their respective kingdoms are still preserved in front of their names.

On the wind-topped platform to the left, Gaara stood, dressed in a dark green cloak and hat, looking quite dashing!

The red "love" character on his left temple was particularly eye-catching!

Once a demon who only loved himself, now a kage beloved by all!

An uninformed person said, "That's Gaara of the Sand, Rasa's youngest son. Wasn't he known for his violent temper when he was the Jinchuriki of the One-Tailed Beast?"

An insider countered, "Lord Gaara's personality has long since changed, and before becoming Kazekage, he was already the lord of Sunagakure's Shura Castle, deeply loved by ninjas and the people. Regardless of his strength, seniority, or bloodline, becoming Kazekage is well-deserved."

Those unaware of the situation quickly changed their tune: "Well, for someone to be nominated by the Feather Emperor and to have even prompted Ebizo, the eunuch from Sunagakure, to come out of seclusion, he must have some extraordinary abilities!"

Gaara habitually crossed his arms over his chest, his gaze sweeping across the crowd before suddenly freezing, a warm smile appearing on his lips: "You really came, Naruto."

Naruto was disguised, completely concealing his chakra and appearance, but Gaara still recognized Naruto at a glance, even though he was mixed in with the crowd. Perhaps this is what it means to be telepathic!

"Wow, Lord Gaara is usually very serious, but when he smiles, the world seems to fall over..."

Gaara's smile made the little fangirl from Sunagakure, hidden in the crowd, overjoyed.

On the earthen platform to the right, Deidara took his place, his dark gray earthen shadow attire somewhat mismatched with his flowing golden hair!

Feeling very uncomfortable under the gaze of so many people, Xiao Di pulled his hat brim down to cover half his face, muttering, "Damn it, I'd love to perform art in front of people, but this kind of public display is like being a monkey show. Ugh, I think I'm developing agoraphobia. What should I do? Black Earth, you can be the shadow of the earth god..."

Through the earpiece, Kurotsuchi's playful voice came through: "Deidara, don't be nervous, I'll teach you a trick. Just imagine those people as things you like..."

Deidara racked his brains: "Something I like... explosives? Hah, blow it up for me! But no, I'm still scared!!!"

With a slightly shy expression, Kurotsuchi suggested, "Then, imagine yourself as...me?"
