Immortality begins with the ninjas of Konoha

Until recently, Jiraiya realized that there was something wrong with his body whenever he saw his increasingly unfamiliar face in the mirror.

"Haha! Maybe I really am going to become a hermit named Guoxin!"

"No matter what I become, I will protect this world, and the spirit of the Ninja Cult will be passed down from me!"

"This world should not be twisted and dominated by monsters. The Otsutsuki, the God Tree, and the Ten-Tails are all monsters."

"Naruto, promise me, never give in to monsters, and never let yourself become a monster."

Thinking of the Sage of Six Paths' account of Ninja Cult and the history of fighting monsters, Naruto nodded vigorously. He would not give up, even if the Karma seal was released to 99%, he would persevere.

Jiraiya wanted to continue teaching the Ninja School, but suddenly felt a sharp pain in his body. As he knelt on the ground, his mask fell off, and he could only clutch his forehead in agony, gasping for breath.

Seeing this, Isshiki Otsutsuki once again took control of Naruto's body, looking at Jiraiya with cold eyes and mocking him:

"This is the price Amador paid for allowing you to use divine magic at will. The souls of those homunculus may not be able to sense it, but you should feel the erosion, right?"

"Monster? You lowly creature dare to talk about gods?"

"You were born to be our nourishment. Even if a freak like Furukawa Osamu is born, you are destined to be devoured by divine arts and provide nourishment for the Chakra Fruit."

"Kaguya's two sons are the shame of the Otsutsuki clan, as they dispersed their chakra, which led to the current situation."

"Inferior creature, quietly experience the process of being devoured by the gods!"

Jiraiya groaned in pain, as if his soul were being devoured by something, but upon hearing Isshiki Otsutsuki's words, he burst into breathless laughter:

"I have already seen the future! In the future, there will be no monsters!"

"This planet will return to its original state, and you are destined to fail."

"There are far more failures than successes. Momoshiki Otsutsuki is already terrified. He also sees the future: the monsters will all disappear!"

"Haha! This planet doesn't belong to you..."

Otsutsuki Isshiki watched Jiraiya collapse to the ground in agony, which confirmed that there was something wrong with the Otsutsuki God. If it weren't for dealing with Furukawa Osamu, he would have wanted to destroy these artificial humans immediately.

No one understood this racial trait better than the Otsutsuki; it was common for those in power to devour those in power, and he certainly didn't want to end up gaining the Chakra Fruit only to be ambushed...

"Ignorant, inferior creatures are truly ugly!"

"How can you inferior beings compare to the future I see?"

Momoshiki Otsutsuki, who had descended from the night sky, slowly mocked Jiraiya, signaling Kinshiki Otsutsuki to stay there. Then, he and Isshiki moved on together, as they still had some final work to do.

Barely managing to prop himself up, Jiraiya looked at the tall and imposing Otsutsuki in front of him and revealed a mocking smile.

He wasn't lying. In the future, this planet will have no Otsutsuki, no Ten-Tails, no God Tree. Not only that, but even Osamu Furukawa and Madara Uchiha have disappeared, and the Kara organization has also vanished.

In the scene of victory shown to him by the Ten Directions Divine Technique, the profession of ninja also disappeared. Jiraiya saw Minato and the others living happily, and everything returned to normal.

"Cough...cough..."

Jiraiya, coughing up blood, felt something was missing, but he didn't care. He was on the right path, and in the end, he protected the world.

"Sarutobi-sensei, Tsunade... I really want to live with you in that kind of future..."

In the alternate dimension, Momoshiki Otsutsuki looked at Naruto, who had transformed. His clansmen clearly did not trust him and had already activated the second form of Karma.

“I’ve paid a price to see more of the future, and before I take action, I need to step away for a while.”

"Hmm? Is it for the container?"

Ōtsutsuki Isshiki asked calmly, Momoshiki clearly no longer had the arrogant mood he had before.

After learning that Kaguya had devoured the Chakra Fruit and that the Otsutsuki God truly existed, this clansman completely adjusted his mindset.

Momoshiki didn't answer directly, but chuckled twice, a playful look returning to his face, and then uttered a meaningful "riddle":

"This planet is more interesting than you think!"

"Don't die, my people."

After saying this, Momoshiki gave a brief explanation of the ninjutsu he had learned and then quickly left. The two of them would fight in close combat and attack from a distance, while Kinshiki would be his backup "food"—he would give Furukawa Osamu a surprise.

Back on top of the experimental building, Momoshiki nimbly landed on Kinshiki's shoulder, a strange smile on her face as she looked up at the bright full moon in the night sky:

"Kim, let's go! No matter what, I will be the final victor!"

Jiraiya watched the Otsutsuki leave, panting heavily in pain. He was only helped up when Naruto returned and regained consciousness.

"Strange uncle, hang in there, don't give up!"

Naruto encouraged him loudly with a serious expression. Seeing Jiraiya nod, he smiled again, then, recalling the information he had vaguely sensed earlier, he whispered:

"Finally, I can go back. Father, Mother, everyone, how are you all?... "

Chapter 311 The "Ninjutsu" of Inferior Creatures?!

On June 12th, Konoha Year 67, the final day of the Joint Chunin Exams of the Land of Water, the young people from the five great ninja villages faced their final test.

Unlike previous exams, Kirigakure has abundant combat resources. As long as you sign up, you can be arranged to fight a battle that pushes your limits.

Genin squads challenge special Jonin or Jonin, and this kind of battle simulates the past Shinobi World Wars.

After all, there are no one-on-one battles on the battlefield. Once the Jonin leading the team is defeated, the team members will be forced to fight to the death.

This is also why the survival rate of genin was always the lowest back then; "cannon fodder" was the role that genin and some ordinary chunin played in the war.

Participation in the final assessment is voluntary, and there are rewards for registration. If you win, there is even a huge bonus.

You can fight in a team, or you can fight individually if you are confident in your abilities!

Battles between ninjas are often full of surprises. Intelligence, secret techniques, and other factors are key to victory or defeat. The courageous young man will face the final test, and once he wins, he is destined for a bright future.

-

After several years of renovation and expansion, the capital of the Water Kingdom has completely shed its former "rural" character. Ships come and go in the port, and all kinds of goods and raw materials are constantly being absorbed by the city.

Madara Uchiha, dressed in a blue high-necked robe, had been traveling here for two days. In his memory, the capital was still that "small town," where the First Mizukage, Byakuren, had traveled all over the place to establish Kirigakure.

The water-rich country that was once relatively resource-scarce has now become an overseas "fairyland," and its unique culture of prioritizing money has even led to its rapid development.

Madara Uchiha had only intended to take a casual look around before arriving, but after observing for two days, he finally discovered the reason why the Land of Water had become so different:

"There are no daimyo, no ninjas, and the country is dominated by ordinary people."

In previous years, Hidden Mist ninjas would directly participate in management, but now it is difficult for ordinary people to see ninjas. Ninjas are all hidden in the shadows and only appear in specific conflicts.

This situation seems to have given ordinary people more vitality, and businessmen regard it as paradise.

Although Madara Uchiha still doesn't recognize all the multinational corporations, he has noticed the extraordinary ordinary people among them, and their organizational structure has left a deep impression on him.

Because of the battle at the arena at 9 o'clock, the shops around the venue were packed with tourists and spectators. The gambling industry in the Land of Water was booming, with ninjas even providing explanations and analysis to ordinary people before betting was placed...

Secret ninjutsu techniques that were never shown to the public were displayed on the big screen, and each ninja who appeared had detailed information and a combat power assessment. The bar owner also led the excitement, banging on the table and shouting loudly:

"Don't underestimate those genin. Do you see the combat power above? Most of the ninjas from the five great nations have mastered the ultimate techniques."

"On the contrary, those ordinary Jonin, apart from having more combat experience, are extremely lacking in ninjutsu. They come from small countries, which is something that can't be helped."

"Add to that the differences in secret medicines, equipment, and ninja tools, and don't blame me for not warning you, the battles these days are all about overall strength!"

Hearing the analysis from the boss, whose face bore a hideous scar, the gamblers were tempted. Winning against stronger opponents meant earning more, and soon some gritted their teeth and placed bets.

"Let's buy the genin from Kirigakure!"

"That kid from Konoha is really amazing, a genius of the Sarutobi clan. I'll buy him!"

"Those young people from Yunyin are fine too. Those guys are so concerned about their reputation; they wouldn't sign up if they weren't confident. I'm going with them!"

As more bettors spoke up, the atmosphere in the bar became increasingly heated, and the middle-aged owner was beaming with joy. He thought that if the ninjas from the five great nations came to fight every year, financial freedom would be just around the corner.

While many countries still fear ninjas, in the Land of Water, ordinary people and ninjas coexist harmoniously, albeit in a rather peculiar way. This scene still made Madara Uchiha look thoughtful.

"Sir, wouldn't you like a drink?"

"I'm used to getting my body into top condition before a fight."

Madara Uchiha calmly responded as he picked up his juice. He had transformed into an ordinary-looking young man using his transformation technique, but his unique aura still prompted the experienced waiter to use polite language.

The staff bowed and took their leave, and the ordinary people around them subconsciously kept their distance from Uchiha Madara. In the capital of the Land of Water, keeping one's eyes open was a necessary condition for survival.

As Madara Uchiha left the bar, he soon encountered a hunched old woman. White Zetsu temporarily possessed her, and after they reunited, Madara immediately whispered his report:

"Obito Uchiha can no longer cooperate with Lord Madara; the cursed seal on his heart has disappeared."

“There’s something strange about his body right now. I don’t know what it is, but Black Zetsu can no longer sense the curse mark.”

"Furthermore, he had a child with a woman from the Yuki clan. Most of the Uchiha members here have partners with special bloodline limits. It seems that Kirigakure is conducting some kind of experiment."

"Um?!"

Although Madara Uchiha had anticipated that Obito would break free of control, this development was still beyond his expectations; his memories were still stuck on the period when Obito was obsessed with Rin Nohara...

Black Zetsu suddenly appeared at this moment, quickly merging into White Zetsu's body, and then added in a hoarse voice:

“Obito’s heart and other organs seem to have been eroded and mutated by natural energy. This is a new power system developed by Kirigakure in combination with Orochimaru’s cursed seal.”

"Orochimaru explained the principle in the Kara organization, but Kabuto Yakushi, who is in charge of this project, is obviously a genius and has taken the cursed seal to another level."

"The Kirigakure ninjas who have undergone modification have become monsters of natural energy. They can actively mutate their bodies, and they can no longer be called ninjas."

Madara Uchiha was stunned again. Since his resurrection, he had always felt that he had been abandoned by the times, and now this feeling was even more pronounced.

Considering the situation in the Land of Water, he vaguely guessed why it was so peaceful here; the mass-produced "monsters" might be able to crush the ninjas of the other four great nations...

"Did the Uchiha clan also undergo modification?"

"Yes, Lord Madara, Itachi Uchiha was likely able to reduce the side effects of the Mangekyou Sharingan because of this power."

"According to the intelligence we have gathered, two years ago, he was already able to use half of Susanoo with ease, and he also possessed a divine artifact."

Madara Uchiha was speechless. Then, thinking that this might all be thanks to Osamu Furukawa, a surge of inexplicable anger welled up in his heart. The Uchiha clan members of Kirigakure would no longer obey his leadership!

I thought the "bloodline party" would be purer after leaving Konoha, but the Uchiha here have embraced a completely new power.

The clansmen are still alive, but Madara Uchiha can't find a single one who can be used. Even though he had anticipated this situation, he still felt somewhat distressed.

When he left Konoha, some members of the Uchiha clan still admired him. Now that he has been resurrected and returned, his clansmen have become his followers.

"Very well, as long as I can become a god, these people will know how to choose!"

"Have you found the Tailed Beast?"

Madara Uchiha suppressed his displeasure and asked in a low voice. Black Zetsu felt something was off about the information he had gathered, but for his mother's sake, he answered decisively:

“There is indeed sealed tailed beast chakra in the amber bottle, and that chakra seems to have become the energy supply device for the castle tower.”

"As for the tailed beasts, we still cannot find any trace of them."

Ada saw the nine tailed beasts from the past and the young Ten-Tails together through the divine technique "Clairvoyance," but she couldn't see what exactly happened. It's clear that Osamu Furukawa made some kind of modification to the tailed beasts.

The high-quality chakra generated by this modification even interfered with the "records," and Ada was unable to analyze the relevant information.

Madara Uchiha knew that the Kara organization wouldn't lie to him about this. Orochimaru, that junior, only wanted to analyze divine arts and "gods," while Amado needed him to restrain those Otsutsuki aliens.

However, he also needed the power of the Kara organization. Madara Uchiha had already sensed the abnormality in his body. The cells and divine arts of the Otsutsuki seemed to be corrosive, a power that even the Gedo Mazo could not annihilate.

The reason he was in such a hurry to transform the Gedo Mazo into the Ten-Tails was to resist that power. Madara Uchiha thought of that ordinary, unremarkable person, pondered for a long time, and then gave his orders:

"Once Otsutsuki appears, we'll go find the amber bottle first."

"After becoming the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki, I will then discuss cooperation with the Kara organization."

Black Zetsu was unaware of the abnormality in Madara Uchiha's body. In its view, Madara was merely a vessel for its mother's resurrection, and Kaguya, being immortal, would not have any problems wielding divine power.

Upon hearing the order, White Zetsu manipulated the old woman's body to respond quickly:

"I understand, Lord Madara. It seems that Osamu Furukawa has not taken the remaining tailed beast chakra seriously. This is our chance."

"Lord Madara, could our actions have been anticipated?"

Upon hearing Black Zetsu's question, Madara Uchiha chuckled dismissively, a hint of disdain flashing in his eyes.

"So what if they foresaw it? The strong can change the future; they have no idea about my power!"

It would be quite simple to reverse this situation. Madara Uchiha has devised a plan: he can distort reality and transform the Kara organization and this world into his own allies.

This is information conveyed by divine magic, but there seems to be an unknown cost to its use. It is an uncontrollable power, and Madara Uchiha does not want to risk using it. He needs to gather information before making an assessment.

Black Zetsu felt a little uneasy, but it trusted its mother. The divine arts were created by the Otsutsuki, and its special existence should not be affected by the effects of the divine arts.

Things have quickly spiraled out of its control, and Black Zetsu only wants to revive his mother as soon as possible.

"I understand, Lord Madara. I will lead the way. We'll go to the castle tower first; the amber bottle is there."
