From Hokage to Visionary

It was like a woman's comfort that gave Shisui courage.

He took a deep breath, gripped the kunai tightly, and then carefully, as if performing delicate surgery, peeled off the eggshell without damaging the membrane.

The sharp kunai cut the woman's abdomen, the bright red muscles were cut layer by layer, and blood gushed out.

Soon, after cutting open the abdomen, Shisui saw the 'baby' wrapped in amniotic fluid inside the belly, curled up into a small ball, with bright red wrinkled skin and an umbilical cord connected to the abdomen.

The umbilical cord was cut to completely separate the baby from the mother. This 'operation' that tortured Shisui's heart and made him extremely tormented finally came to an end.

During the entire process, the woman did not utter a single scream and remained silent the entire time, as if she was afraid of disturbing him.

"Look, this is your child, very healthy." Shisui's eyes were red, and he was moved by the will of the woman in front of him. He carefully held the baby and placed it in front of the woman, wanting to let her see the child he had exchanged his life for: "It's a girl, give her a name."

"Sasuke."

Love burned in the woman's eyes, strong and fiery, like a bright light illuminating the night: "I hope she can have good luck and live strong."

Sasuke, which means 'helping others' or 'helping yourself', implies that the child will have good luck and success.

But at this moment, her mother's hope is that the child can have good luck and help her survive.

"Sasuke, Sasuke, Sasuke."

Shisui whispered the name, looked at the mother, and said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, I will definitely raise Sasuke."

"Thank you."

After getting his promise, the woman was finally satisfied and closed her tired eyes.

A lot happened that night.

The invasion of the S-rank rebel ninja Obito directly led to the loss of control of the tailed beasts, the death of the Jinchūriki Uzumaki Kushina, and the third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen being seriously injured and on the verge of death.

Namikaze Minato and Jiraiya worked together to repel Obito, and re-sealed the tailed beast in the body of Uzumaki Naruto, the newborn child of the Uzumaki clan.

On the other hand, Mr. A of the Aurora Society took advantage of the situation and indirectly led to the destruction of the Uchiha family. Uchiha Mikoto's whereabouts were unknown, and the culprit Uchiha Itachi was classified as an S-class traitor, becoming the only super dangerous traitor in the history of the ninja world at the age of only 5.

Konoha Hospital.

The newborn Sasuke and Naruto were coincidentally placed in the same intensive care unit.

One is the only remaining bloodline of the Uzumaki clan, with the Nine-tailed Demon Fox sealed in his body, the hero who saved Konoha, and the son of the Yellow Flash Minato Namikaze; the other is one of the only remaining bloodlines of the Uchiha clan, a powerful clan famous in the ninja world, who had his eyes "opened" at birth and was a natural awakener after Itachi.

It is foreseeable that in the near future they will demonstrate amazing talents, perhaps shocking the ninja world.

But no one noticed that there was another 'person' in the intensive care unit for the two babies.

The old man had a short horn on his forehead, three eyes, long white hair and beard, and was dressed like a monk. He held a black Zen staff in his hand. He was the legendary Six Paths Sage.

He looked at the two babies in the cradle, his eyes showing kindness and gentleness, and said softly: "Indra, Ashura, I hope that in this life, you can really resolve the grudges that have been entangled for thousands of years in this way as Mr. Adam said."

Chapter 259: Ending, Doubts about the Night of Genocide

The plan for the reincarnation of Indra and Asura was naturally made by 'Adam'.

Out of some kind of evil taste, he finally fulfilled his wish from his previous life. As expected, the orthodox Naruto should be Naruto and Sasuke!

Hinata and Sakura, they are all cults!

As for Indra's gender, changing from brother to sister, it is just a trivial issue.

I believe that the Six Paths Sage would be happy to see this finally put an end to the feud between the two brothers that has lasted for thousands of years.

Walking out of the noisy baby room, the Six Paths Sage reported what had happened to Adam through a prayer ceremony, and then disappeared again and returned to the Pure Land.

Dawn finally arrives.

A ray of morning light broke through the night sky, and the warm sunshine sprinkled on the ruins.

The ninjas were busy searching for survivors of last night's disaster who were buried under the rocks before they had time to evacuate.

People are doing everything they can to save every life possible.

Konoha Hospital was destroyed and had to be rebuilt in another location to accommodate those injured in the war.

"How do you feel, old man?"

Jiraiya was sitting in a ward, visiting the seriously injured Sarutobi Hiruzen, with a complicated expression.

Once upon a time, he felt deeply disappointed with what happened in Konoha and a series of political measures taken by his teacher. Eventually, he became disheartened and set his life goal on finding the son of prophecy that could change the world as predicted by the Great Toad Sage.

Until last night, his perception of Sarutobi Hiruzen had changed slightly.

The old man lying on the hospital bed was wrapped in bandages and had multiple fractures in his body, but it was all worth it because he had single-handedly held back the mad tailed beast during the Nine-Tails Rebellion last night until Minato Namikaze and he arrived and re-sealed the tailed beast in Naruto's body.

This night, Sarutobi Hiruzen's reputation returned to its peak again.

“It’s good to have you back”

Sarutobi Hiruzen was seriously injured, but it did not affect his speech: "Konoha really needs you now, Jiraiya."

"Stop." Jiraiya crossed his arms and made a gesture of refusal: "I know what you are going to say, I can't do it, find someone else!"

The three consecutive rejections left Sarutobi Hiruzen speechless. His eyelids twitched, and after a while he sighed, pointed to the table next to him, and said unhappily: "Go, bring me the pipe. These nurses are too strict and don't give me a chance."

"Old man, can't you smoke less?"

Jiraiya looked reluctant, but still handed over the pipe obediently: "You are old and seriously injured. You are not afraid of death if you continue to smoke."

"Stop talking nonsense. You will die if you don't smoke."

Sarutobi Hiruzen took the pipe, lit it and took a long drag with satisfaction, then said, "How is the investigation going with the Uchiha side?"

Speaking of business, Jiraiya put away his playful expression and said in a deep voice, "There are only two people left in the entire clan. I have checked the bodies and it is hard to believe that a child of only five years old could have done this alone."

"you mean"

Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned, smoked his cigarette in big puffs, looked outside through the window of the ward, and did not say the second half of the sentence.

"According to Uchiha Shisui's information, besides him and the newborn baby, there is another person alive." Jiraiya sighed deeply, his tone inexplicably solemn, and uttered a name: "Uchiha Mikoto disappeared on the night of the genocide."

"Obito Uchiha wasn't the only one behind the Nine-Tails Rebellion."

Thinking of the Sharingan he saw in the Nine-Tails' eyes last night, Sarutobi Hiruzen felt even more depressed: "In my memory, there is only one person who can control the Nine-Tails."

"But that person is dead, so." Jiraiya knew of course that he was referring to 'Uchiha Madara', the Shura of the Ninja World who once founded Konoha, but this was absolutely impossible because that person had long since died in the battle with the first Hokage.

"Yes, so." Sarutobi Hiruzen closed his eyes and said slowly after a long while: "All the information about 'Night of Extermination' should be sealed up and temporarily classified as S-rank."

"Okay, anything else?"

Jiraiya sat down on the bed nonchalantly and said, "I'll leave soon after I'm done here."

"Can't you stay a little longer?" Sarutobi Hiruzen felt helpless. Why wasn't his disciple willing to stay?

"I'm afraid not, old man." Jiraiya sighed and spread his hands, "I have a lot of things to do here, and more important things."

"More important than Konoha?" asked Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"Maybe, yes." Jiraiya nodded, his face solemn, and said: "Old man, in a place you don't know, the ninja world has undergone tremendous changes. I need to investigate the source of these changes. This matter is far more important than Konoha."

"alright, I got it."

Sarutobi Hiruzen had no choice but to give up and force Jiraiya to keep his thoughts. After thinking for a while, he said, "In this case, I will entrust you with a secret mission in the name of your advisor."

"What mission?"

Jiraiya did not refuse this. After all, too many lice would not itch, and too many tasks would not be urgent.

"Find Uchiha Mikoto and investigate the truth behind the night of the genocide."

Sarutobi Hiruzen poured the burnt tobacco out of the window, put down his pipe and said, "But remember, don't let anyone know about this, understand?"

"Why don't you let Uchiha Shisui investigate?" Jiraiya was also confused. Logically speaking, it would be more appropriate to let the Uchiha clan members go, so why did he go to investigate instead?

"I couldn't believe him."

Sarutobi Hiruzen's reasons were simple, yet also plain and direct.

Uchiha Shisui was Uchiha Mikoto's disciple. If he said he had nothing to do with this matter, it would be hard for people to believe it, so he could only choose an "outsider" who had never been in Konoha to investigate the night of the genocide and Uchiha Mikoto's affairs.

"My intuition tells me that this matter is far from as simple as it seems."

Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned and sighed sadly: "There are more and more mysteries. I have a feeling that a storm is about to appear. We need to be prepared in advance."

After the conversation between the two, a few days passed and Jiraiya left the village.

As for Minato Namikaze, after losing his wife, he was heartbroken and entrusted Naruto to the care of Sarutobi Hiruzen. In order to commemorate the deceased Kushina, he used his wife's surname and named the child "Uzumaki Naruto". After doing all this, he left Konoha.

Soon, the news about Konoha's Nine-Tails Rebellion and the night of genocide spread throughout the ninja world.

A boy who was only five years old slaughtered the powerful clans in the ninja world alone, which shocked the ninja world. Many people called him "Itachi who exterminated the clan" and dubbed him the most vicious rebel ninja in history. He was listed in the underground bounty office with a reward of 350 million taels, ranking first and far ahead of others.

By the way, the bounty for Itachi, the genocide killer, is equivalent to ten Asumas.

Next month is coming soon, please support me, monthly tickets or anything, I will accept anyone~ Damn, it is so hard to find a suitable job now, all the HR people are dreamers, they are full of boasting, and when they meet, they are more squeezed than the mother tree of desire.

Chapter 260 What should be the last meeting?

In the majestic and magnificent church of bones that seems eternal.

A figure that seemed to have thousands of faces, made up of the overlapping appearances of all living beings, exuding endless majesty, sat upright on a tall bronze bench.

After looking around and confirming the status of the objects to which each oil lamp was mentally linked, Uchiha Sogetsu finally made up his mind and raised his right hand slightly.

The figure holding the brass oil lamp, along with the fluctuations of the subconscious ocean, one illusory figure after another was pulled into the deepest level of the dream. Orochimaru, White Fang, Konan, Two Libras Ōnoki, Uchiha Mikoto, Six Paths Sage, and other members of the Dusk Hermitage appeared one after another.

This meeting was so sudden that the members who were convened seemed a little stunned and surprised.

Before this, although they had all had the experience of being suddenly summoned at certain times, they were basically due to reasons, or they were informed in advance. But like now, all the members were summoned, which made them smell a different atmosphere.

Looking at the members gathered around him, Orochimaru felt vaguely uneasy and cast his gaze towards the tall chair.

The others, acting almost in the same way as him, were all more or less uneasy, looking towards the tall chair, as if waiting for 'Adam' to reveal the mystery.

Finally, under the leadership of Orochimaru, everyone greeted the person sitting in the upper seat one by one.

He tapped the bronze tabletop lightly as a response to everyone's greetings. After they sat down again, Uchiha Munetsuki looked at both sides of the bronze table and said in a low and calm voice, "I called you together this time because I have a few things to say. After that, I may disappear for a while."

After hearing these words, everyone's hearts sank, as if their uneasy premonition had finally come true.

Although they were surprised, they still remained calm. Perhaps it was because they had witnessed too many incredible things in the past three years, and after joining the Twilight Priory, they had experienced many things that were beyond common sense. They were no longer the same people they were before.

"Mr. Adam, can you tell us where you are going?"

Orochimaru straightened his body, maintained the angle of his sight, and asked his superior the reason in a respectful tone.

The questions he raised are also the questions in everyone's mind.

In their eyes, 'Adam' was omnipotent and seemed to have never shown any 'weakness'. It had always been like this, and they believed it would be so in the future.

But now, the omnipotent 'Adam' said that he "would be away for a while", which made everyone in the Dusk Hermitage very curious about what made 'Adam' say such a thing.

"I will travel to the starry sky to face some ancient beings that transcend the 'Sequence'."

Uchiha Munetsuki maintained a calm tone and said, "There is a threat of 'Doomsday' there, and I must prevent it from happening, or at least delay it for a while."

The term "Transcendence Sequence" made everyone in the Dusk Priory look shocked.

Their understanding of the 'Sequence' still remained at the blasphemous slate, which was at the highest level, 'Sequence 0'. But now they learned from Adam that above the True God of Sequence 0, there were some ancient beings that surpassed the sequence!

So that's how it is, Orochimaru finally understood, and at the same time looked towards the place above, his eyes filled with awe and ecstasy.

'Adam' is not a "true God", but an ancient being that "transcends the sequence"!

As it should be!

That's how it should be!

exactly!

He still remembered that in the myth told by Adam, He was born in the "beginning", which meant He was an ancient existence that transcended the sequence and was superior to the true God!

Different from Orochimaru's focus, the Sage of Six Paths obviously paid more attention to the "doomsday" mentioned by Adam.

"Mr. Adam, is the doomsday you mentioned related to the moon?" The Six Paths Sage immediately guessed that the reason for Adam's disappearance was related to "that thing" on the moon.

"No, there is more than one person spying on this 'planet'."

Uchiha Sogetsu's unfathomable and half-truthful words shocked and horrified everyone present.
