I, Yhwach, join the chat group

Orochimaru regained his human form from the Eight-Headed Technique and sneered, "Hey, you better be careful of Uchiha Sasuke. I hope you can bring the Jinchūriki back to Konoha safely."

"What?" Hatake Kakashi frowned, "Where is Sasuke?"

"Who knows? You have no idea what's going on. This is just advice."

Orochimaru licked the tip of his tongue and was looking forward to Uchiha Sasuke's actions. However, what he didn't know was that Uchiha Sasuke encountered Senju Tobirama and was beaten to the point of doubting his life.

"Kakashi, for someone from another race to be able to use the Sharingan to this extent, you are indeed very talented. However, after using your eye power continuously, how much light is left in your eyes..."

Leaving behind a sinister laugh, Orochimaru's body slowly turned into a pool of mud and rotted away. "Goodbye, everyone from Konoha. You won't be so lucky next time we meet, little brat of the Nine-Tails!"

The voice faded away, and his figure disappeared completely...

Seeing this, Kakashi's tense nerves relaxed. He covered his eyes and knelt on the ground...

"Kakashi-sensei!"

"I'm fine, Naruto." Kakashi said in a deep voice: "The most urgent thing is to bring you back to the village as soon as possible. We can't stay here for long. Let's go!"

As he returned, Kakashi couldn't help but think of what the phantom Itachi said to him yesterday.

"Rin...will I really be able to see you again? And Obito, if you are not dead, where are you now and what are you doing..."

The phantom Itachi reached an agreement with him that as long as Kakashi copied down the thousand ninjutsu he had copied, he could resurrect the two people Kakashi wanted.

These two people are... Lin and Hatake White Fang!

……

Time flies, and two days later.

After three or four days of stripping the tailed beasts, the four-tailed and five-tailed beasts were finally sealed.

In the cave where the Akatsuki organization was gathering, as the last trace of the tailed beast's chakra was devoured by the golem, everyone standing on the ten fingers breathed a sigh of relief.

"I'm so tired. Does it have to be this tiring every time?" Feidan twisted his stiff neck. "It's really annoying. Is there a faster way? I'm very busy with the activities to worship the evil god."

Upon hearing this, Pain calmly released the technique and said, "Next, the tailed beast capture operation continues. Hidan, Angle, you are in charge of the two-tailed Nekomata of Kumogakure, so you better move quickly."

"Huh?" Angle clearly heard something was wrong and couldn't help but ask, "What happened?"

"The war between Kumogakure and Konoha has begun. The initial tests have been completed, and both sides have suffered heavy losses."

The person who spoke was Zetsu. Even when he was stripping off the tailed beasts, he still had the ability to clone himself to gather intelligence and keep an eye on major events in the ninja world. "A large canyon on the border of the Land of Fire was completely wiped out. My clones are all dead."

He was nearby at the time and was caught in the Five Dragons' destruction. Fortunately, he passed on the information before he died.

"The elite troops of Kumogakure haven't returned yet, so you should hurry up." Pain said, "As for Zetsu and Afei, you are in charge of the three-tailed Isobu, it is a tailed beast without a Jinchūriki, and you have almost figured out its exact location."

"No problem." Ah Fei was wearing a mask, and the one here was not his real body, but a phantom form. "I can finally show my strength. As a newcomer, Senior Jue, I hope you can give me a lot of guidance."

"Pein, where did you find this living treasure..." Deidara's eyes twitched, "Is this guy really okay?"

"Oh, Senior Deidara, don't look at me like this, I'm very strong." said the masked man A Fei.

Pain obviously ignored him and continued, "As for the six-tailed thunder beast, Deidara, you and Sasori will be responsible for capturing it. As for the seven-tailed raccoon dog, it's in Takigakure. Kisame and Itachi, you go."

"Where are the Eight-Tails and Nine-Tails?"

asked Kisame Inikasaki.

"I am personally responsible!"

……

The Country of Fire, Konoha Village.

After several days of travel, Mei Terumi and her group finally arrived in Konoha.

Tsunade received them grandly. After all, it was a formal visit, and etiquette could not be lost.

As she approached Konoha Village, Mei Terumi couldn't help but feel secretly shocked.

Some time ago, Konoha collapsed due to Orochimaru's actions. In just over half a month, it has been almost rebuilt.

"I admire your infrastructure capabilities." Mei Terumi said with a smile: "I believe that Konoha will rise again under the leadership of the Fifth Hokage."

Tsunade was obviously not interested in responding to such insincere words, and instead said bluntly: "The Mizukage's visit to our Konoha is a good opportunity to exchange feelings between our two countries. There is no conflict of interest between our two countries, and there is the possibility of cooperation."

"Oh, cooperation?" Mei Terumi raised her eyebrows.

There's no point in cooperating. Someone is forcing me to attack Konoha, there's no way I'm going to cooperate.

Thinking of this, she smiled again and said, "On the way here, I heard that Kumogakure was declaring war on your Konoha without a declaration. I'm really sorry to visit you during this period."

"This is over."

Tsunade sneered and said, "It just so happens that there is a ceremony taking place today as well. It might be a good idea for the Mizukage to come and watch."

"Ritual?" Mei Terumi's heart moved.

"The Ritual of Resurrection!"

Tsunade said calmly: "In the First World War, thousands of our Konoha's elite died. They sacrificed their lives for Konoha, and today, as the Hokage, I will summon their souls back from heaven!"

what?

Mei Terumi's delicate body trembled, and her expression changed slightly.

Tsunade secretly curled her lips at this. She certainly knew what Mei Terumi was planning. She had deliberately postponed the resurrection ceremony until now just to give the other party a warning.

Mei Terumi's smile was a bit forced, "Then I'm looking forward to it..."

Chapter 488: Mei Terumi's Lost Control

In addition to the Mizukage, there are several Sand Ninjas in his group.

The operation to rescue Gaara failed, and the Sand Ninja also knew that Gaara was dead.

This was a major blow to the Wind Country. However, Konoha put forward a condition at this time, which was to resurrect Gaara, but the price was that the two countries formed an alliance and advanced and retreated together.

Of course, when they say they will advance and retreat together, they actually just want the Sand Ninja to help Konoha fight against Kumogakure.

At this moment, in the center of a large square in Konoha Village, there were numerous wooden coffins, about one thousand four hundred and five thousand in number, all of which were ninjas who died in the war.

However, many of the wooden coffins did not contain corpses, only the tools that these ninjas carried with them during their lifetime.

This is the condition for the Phoenix Feather to be resurrected. There must be fragments of the soul. These instruments have always been held by these ninjas. Over a long period of time, they have naturally been tainted with a trace of soul breath.

Of course, this is also thanks to the fact that the Raikage chose the 99th Five Dragon Transmigration. If the "original world collapsed", those 747 Konoha ninjas who died would probably not even have the chance to be resurrected. Their souls would not go to heaven at all, but would be directly erased.

"It's almost time," Shizune said softly, standing beside Tsunade, "Lady Tsunade."

Hearing this, Tsunade looked at the Second Hokage, Senju Tobirama, who was sitting behind her.

Senju Tobirama nodded and glanced at Danzo and the three Konoha high-ranking officials.

To be honest, Danzo is very unhappy now. He originally wanted Tsunade to act as the Hokage, and he could take over the power when the time came. He didn't expect Tsunade to be so capable. Under her hands, Konoha recovered its vitality in an instant. Not only that, even Tobirama Senju came back to life. How could he seize power? There was no hope at all.

Although the "Resurrection Technique" is beneficial to Konoha, Danzo deep down wants to destroy this ceremony in order to undermine Tsunade's rule.

Of course, just thinking about it...

Tsunade walked down the platform and came to the front of the wooden coffin amid many enthusiastic gazes.

"War never brings happiness, but war is often unavoidable. We are not afraid of war. Any enemy who dares to invade Konoha will be our target of destruction!"

"This is a ceremony to comfort the heroes who, with their iron-blooded bodies, defended Konoha and inherited the will of fire!"

"This is a ceremony to resurrect heroes. Their souls in heaven will surely return to the human world and reunite with their families!"

Tsunade gave a brief speech, then took out a phoenix feather and slowly threw it towards the many wooden coffins.

"Great Lord of Life, please use the light of mercy to save these heroes. Death is not their destination, home is! Mass resurrection!"

The falling phoenix feather landed on a gaze, and the next moment, colorful red light shot up into the sky.

Like auspicious clouds, it dyed the entire sky, like a miracle.

It was the first time that the Sand Shinobi, Mizukage and others saw it. Although they had known some information before, they were still shocked by the scene when they saw it with their own eyes.

"Can it really be resurrected?" Chojuro murmured, "Why does this kind of power exist in the world?"

"Choujuro, don't waver." The Mizukage whispered, "This is what Konoha did for us to see. How exactly..."

She couldn't say for sure. It couldn't be fake. It was an illusion, in front of everyone, and Konoha didn't have the ability to fake it.

In comparison, the Sand Ninjas were much more excited.

There were only five or six Sand Ninjas who came this time. In addition to the two senior ninjas, there were also Kankuro and Temari, a brother and sister. Of course, the most important thing was that there was also an old lady.

"Granny Chiyo, Gaara is saved!" Kankuro said with a little excitement: "Konoha promised to help us, and they shouldn't break their promise."

"Um……"

Chiyo stared blankly at the scene before her.

Gaara didn't find the body, but in the wooden coffin in the square, there was an instrument that Gaara had used. If mass resurrection is true, then we will be able to see him later.

"Hehehe..."

Suddenly, a low laugh was heard.

However, no one could hear this laughter.

At some point, a person appeared in the center of the square.

That person was Qin Yang.

"It's him!" Mei Terumi's expression changed slightly, and she was the first to discover Qin Yang's presence.

As if sensing her gaze, Qin Yang smiled back.

The next moment, Mei Terumi felt the power of thunder in her body burst out, her whole body felt numb and her face flushed red.

"Damn it, it's happening again!"

Mei Terumi unconsciously tightened her legs and felt as if countless ants were biting and crawling on her body.

"This guy!" She gritted her teeth and glared at him fiercely.

Noticing her change, Chojuro looked puzzled and followed her gaze, but couldn't see any figure.

At this moment, the seven-colored rainbow light that had accumulated in the sky suddenly burst out.
