Naruto: The Age of Ninja Swordsmen Begins from the Hidden Cloud Village.

Did Orochimaru also target the Byakugan?

"The Hyuga clan leader showed a special eye before, proving that the Byakugan can also evolve like the Sharingan. We underestimated the Byakugan before."

Orochimaru replied without even looking up, not surprised at Shimura Danzo's return.

As early as when his teacher used the Impure World Reincarnation army, he knew that Danzo Shimura was about to return.

"Anything gained?"

Danzo Shimura was also very curious about the Samsara Eye, but unfortunately he only knew the relevant records from Otsutsuki Miyu's memory, but he was not clear about its specific power.

"I only have the Byakugan of the Hyuga branch family, and most of its pupil power has been drained. I need the Byakugan of the Hyuga main family. The higher the quality, the better."

Orochimaru stopped what he was doing with a look of regret on his face, and the Byakugan he was experimenting on exploded. Apparently, its quality was too poor to support his experiment.

"Huruzen told you to use your full strength in the next battle. He will help you with any problems you have."

Looking away, Danzo Shimura conveyed his old friend's words, that he also wanted to see the results of Orochimaru's research over such a long period of time.

"People can only grow under pressure. The teacher has finally broken through the false bottom line of the past."

Orochimaru laughed, that teacher was really interesting.

But since that's the case, he doesn't mind having an outburst. Anyway, he needs actual combat to test the strength of this body.

"Danzo-sama seems to have made progress again."

Suddenly looking at Danzo Shimura's right arm, Orochimaru felt that the dark energy there had increased a lot, but it was more stable than last time. It seemed that this person had not been idle during this period.

"I have gained a little, but I am not as decisive as you. I even changed my body."

Shimura Danzo's exposed single eye turned dark black. He stared at Orochimaru's body and saw something wrong.

Although it is not clear, one can vaguely see the Wood Release Chakra hidden under the powerful power of the fairy technique and the Wood Release Chakra spread all over the body.

This is not simply achieved by transplanting primary cells, it is more like replacing a body shaped by primary cells.

"Danzo-sama's Byakugan are quite powerful."

Orochimaru was surprised and guessed the man's hidden card.

It is most likely similar to the strengthened Three-Tails. The bloodline limit was transplanted onto some kind of existence, and then sealed into the body like a tailed beast.

Moreover, the Three-Tails is in the hands of Danzo Shimura. Could it be that this old guy has become the Three-Tails Jinchuriki?

As for the eye just now, he would not be wrong about the power of that eye. It was definitely the power of the Byakugan, but it was also infected and changed by the dark chakra, just like the Wood Release and Susanoo on his transplanted arm.

I really don't understand where Danzo Shimura got that dark chakra.

"I integrated some of the gains from last time."

After dispersing the borrowed black eyes of the Dark Phoenix, Danzo Shimura not only personally took down the Three-Tails Jinchuriki in the last battle on the peninsula, but also sent people to infiltrate the battlefield to collect the Byakugan of the Hyuga ninjas. He then transplanted the pair with the strongest pupil power into the eye sockets of the Dark Phoenix, and the rest were swallowed up.

The pupil power was devoured and assimilated by the dark chakra, and then merged into the eyes, transforming the Byakugan into this pitch-black form, but it still possesses the abilities of the Byakugan, and its effect is stronger than that of ordinary Byakugan.

In addition to the white eyes being blackened, the corpse bone veins are also blackened, making them more lethal.

Seeing that Danzo Shimura was unwilling to say more, Orochimaru tactfully did not ask and instead talked about the teacher.

"Teacher has obtained some celestial powers from that idiot. He should be able to use the celestial mode. With the celestial mode's enhancement of the three aspects of ninjutsu, tai, and genjutsu, the Impure World Reincarnation Army he controls next time will burst out with even stronger combat power."

I also possess magical powers and I am very sensitive to this, so I discovered the magical power in my teacher's body.

"Master it? Or borrow it temporarily?"

With a serious expression, Danzo Shimura did not dare to underestimate the Sage Mode at all, because he had not yet mastered the power of Sage Arts, and only had semi-finished products such as the Sage Arts Seal.

I don’t know what the old friend’s condition is.

“It’s just a temporary loan. The magical power has not yet been integrated into his body. It will be reduced each time it is used. However, given the idiot’s temperament, he will definitely continue to supply the magical power.

Besides, that idiot Jiraiya has been practicing Dust Release in secret these days, which should be what the teacher learned from the Second Tsuchikage."

Orochimaru is quite interested in Dust Release. After all, it is the only three-attribute bloodline elimination in the ninja world today.

Although Wood Release can be considered as such, the Yang attribute in Wood Release is rather ambiguous and difficult to judge.

"I will give you a piece of the flesh and blood of the Two-Tails in exchange for your Senjutsu, the real Senjutsu."

After some thought, Danzo Shimura took out a scroll he had prepared earlier, which contained a piece of flesh cut from the Two-Tails.

The fact that the Hidden Cloud Village had lost its two tailed beasts was bound to be difficult to conceal, and the power of the Two-Tail was integrated into the Dark Phoenix. Even if it had been infected and changed by the dark power, it would inevitably arouse suspicion, and Orochimaru certainly could not hide it from him.

Therefore, it is not a big deal to trade it now, as long as I can gain the power of immortal arts.

He wanted to obtain the true Sage Mode, not the temporary product that Hiruzen had obtained.

"It's always such a pleasure to work with Danzo-sama."

Orochimaru smiled as he took the sealing scroll and put it in his mouth to seal it. Then his right hand turned into a white snake and stretched out, biting Danzo Shimura's shoulder and injecting snake venom mixed with fairy power and white snake genes into his body.

This is the medium for practicing the Sage Mode in Ryuchi Cave.

Danzo Shimura did not dodge. He already knew the method of practicing the Sage Mode in Ryuchi Cave and had absolute confidence in himself.

Even if Orochimaru has some little thoughts, they can't make any waves in the face of the ultimate dark power of evil in this world.

Chapter 254: Sand Flower Title

Both Konoha and the coalition of the four villages knew that this battle could not be delayed and they had to start fighting immediately after they were prepared.

However, this time it was not Konoha that took the initiative to attack, but the coalition forces of the four villages. At the same time, the 100,000-strong samurai army of the Wind Country was divided into ten, and the ten legions crossed the River Country and attacked the Fire Country.

This is the maximum number of troops that the Daimyo of the Land of Wind can mobilize, and they are all warriors who have undergone rigorous training.

Not only the Sand Village felt the terrifying background and threat of Konoha, the Daimyo of the Wind Country also felt it, and became more determined to attack the Fire Country and destroy Konoha.

If Konoha is allowed to continue developing in this way, sooner or later the ninja world will be unified, and at that time their Daimyo Prefecture's system will no longer exist.

This is a matter of life and death, there is no room for retreat.

In addition, what made the daimyos of the four major countries most angry was the collusion between the new daimyos of the Land of Fire and Konoha, which actually led to the ninja village assassinating the former daimyos in order to ascend the throne, which violated the rules they had set earlier.

Once this precedent was set, they would all have to worry that their descendants would follow suit and die without even knowing how they died.

The new daimyo of the Land of Fire must be killed to intimidate those descendants.

The warrior armies of the Earth Kingdom, the Lightning Kingdom, and the Water Kingdom also invaded the Fire Kingdom from all directions and occupied the territory of the Fire Kingdom.

Although the Fire Nation is rich in resources and has a large population, it can only muster a legion of 200,000 warriors. Divided into four, it can only send 50,000 legions to each front.

Fortunately, as the defending side, we can rely on many terrains and city defenses to delay the opponent.

However, everyone knows that the key to this battle lies not in the fight between the samurai legions, but in the ninja side.

Ninjas are far superior to samurai in terms of large-scale slaughter. For example, for a poison expert like Hanzo, given enough time, it would not be difficult to poison and kill an army of one million, let alone one hundred thousand.

Large-scale ninjutsu is a disaster for samurai, especially low-level samurai.

All of a sudden, Konoha and the Fire Nation became public enemies, besieged by forces from all over the world. They were in danger and would be destroyed if they were not careful.

"Minato, if we lose this battle, I hope you can protect Konoha and shoulder the final mission passed down to you by Mito-sama, even if it means using some extreme means."

Leading all the ninjas to stand in the open space in front of the camp, Sarutobi Hiruzen called Namikaze Minato to his side and gave him instructions in a deep voice.

He could understand Uzumaki Mito's real intention of designating Namikaze Minato as the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, which was to continue to intimidate the four major ninja villages.

The Nine-Tails Jinchuriki and the Flying Thunder God Jutsu alone are nothing special, but once the two are combined, they become an unstoppable existence.

If they really have the heart to give up their principles, they would perish together with the other three ninja villages except the Hidden Cloud Village.

This is also one of the reasons why he dared to use the Impure World Reincarnation army. He was sure that the four major ninja villages would not dare to really destroy Konoha. No one would want to die with them. The four major ninja villages now at most wanted to weaken Konoha.

"I understand, Hokage-sama!"

After a moment of silence, Minato Namikaze turned his head to look at his teacher and his girlfriend Uzumaki Kyuubi, and finally nodded solemnly to show that he understood.

If that time really comes, he will naturally not care about any principles anymore. After all, his dearest teacher and girlfriend will be killed, and his home will be destroyed. All principles and morals are illusions.

And this is just a deterrent, it doesn't necessarily have to go that far. I believe the four major ninja villages definitely don't want to perish together.

"Monkey showman, you are better than me!"

At this time, a joking voice was heard. It came from a tall and thin man with a slicked-back hair and a small mustache. It was the second-generation Mizukage Hozuki Huanyue.

"Even the first Hokage is not as strong as you!"

The Second Tsuchikage rarely argued with Hozuki Gengetsu and nodded in agreement.

The Third Hokage is really strong. They know they don't have the ability to turn their own ninja village and country into the public enemy of the whole world.

The other shadows all had playful expressions on their faces. Now they could only attack with facial expressions and words, and were unable to control their bodies to fight.

Even now, the fact that they have left their consciousness behind is just the other party's attempt to manipulate them to unleash even greater combat power. That guy's control over them has become even stronger.

"If you're bored, I can make you shut up!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen said this indifferently, but he was quite depressed in his heart.

He never expected that the situation would turn out like this today, and the image he had painstakingly built up over the years had collapsed.

"Hey, the second generation of Kumogakure, how do you manage the village? There are many outstanding ninjas in your younger generation."

With a playful smile, Hozuki Huanyue turned his head to look at the Second Raikage, unable to conceal the envy in his eyes.

The same went for the others. Although their consciousness was suppressed in the last battle, their memories were still there. They clearly remembered the performances of the strong men from the four-village coalition, among which the performance of the Hidden Cloud Village was the most outstanding.

Not only is the Third Raikage the strongest, the ninjas under his command are also very powerful and very young. With time, they will surely become top powerhouses and will not be much worse than the Konoha side.

In comparison, the younger generations in their ninja village performed much worse, which made them feel disappointed but also envious.

The secrets within are not only wanted by the four village Kages and powerful men who were resurrected by the Impure World Reincarnation, but the Konoha ninjas are also very curious.

The Hidden Cloud Village is really powerful, especially its performance in recent years.

If it weren't for the deep foundation of Konoha, they might not be able to suppress it.

The Second Raikage was very pleased and relieved by these envious looks.

"It may have something to do with the style of our Hidden Cloud Village. The pure fighting style makes our thoughts more pure. Apart from those two idiots, there has been basically no internal fighting or internal consumption."

He was also surprised at the current development of the village, but he was very satisfied with the disciple. He had indeed made the right choice in choosing the right person.

"You're the idiot!"

Jinjiao and Yinjiao, who had been depressed, got angry and asked, "We didn't provoke you, why are you targeting us?"

Unfortunately, the Second Raikage was too lazy to pay attention to the two's rebuttal. Although these two people were powerful, they really had no brains.

I was actually ambushed and killed by these two idiots. What a shame!

The others ignored the two angry people and were all thinking about the words of the Second Raikage.

Internal strife and internal friction within the village is a big problem. Just look at the Hidden Mist Village, they almost ruined themselves.

However, the most brutal internal strife was still in Konoha, where the fighting became quite complicated.

The internal fighting in other ninja villages only involves two factions, but according to what they have learned in the past few days, there are at least five factions in Konoha, and they are all very powerful, not counting the neutral factions.

Konoha is really strong!

"Ugh!"

The first Mizukage Byakuren glanced at Hozuki Huanyue beside him and couldn't help but sigh.

"Old man, are you scolding me?"

Gui Deng Huan Yue suddenly turned his head to look over, feeling very unhappy.

He hated being talked about behind his back the most, let alone being scolded.

"Shouldn't you be scolded?"

The first Mizukage glanced over, feeling very disappointed with him.

“I won’t say anything about you snatching the position of Mizukage away from you. After all, you got it by relying on your own strength. This is also a reflection of the fact that the strong are respected in our Kirigakure.

But can't you control your temper?

Not long after you ascended the throne, you perished together with others. Now you leave behind a mess. Your Kizuna clan was almost wiped out, and you have to rely on the Hidden Cloud Village to clean up the mess.

Shame on you! "

After learning about the evolution of the village over the years, he was almost angry to death again, and he wished he could chop the guy next to him into pieces.
