I admired heroes but became a villain

"I'm not here for anything else this time. I just came here to tell you a piece of news."

Looking around at the ninjas retreating step by step, Guo Linglong turned her head to the magical girl Hongcha, looked directly into her eyes and whispered: "One day, one day later I will officially attack Konoha in the form of the Nine-Tails. You have a whole day to prepare for the arrival of the disaster... Yes, this is a declaration of war."

When everyone heard this, they were immediately shocked...

One person, just one person, actually planned to start a war against Konoha, and he stood in front of Konoha's most elite group of ninjas, and openly said that he would give Konoha a day to prepare.

How absurd, how rampant, how arrogant!

Sarutobi Hiruzen, whose head was broken by the declaration of war, stood up tremblingly and was about to use the Shikigami Fuujin again. He wanted to let Guo Linglong understand that Konoha was not to be offended.

But just as he was about to form the seal, he met Guo Linglong's eyes.

There was no contempt or arrogance in the man's eyes, only ease and elegance, as if he was saying to him...

Old thing, your Demonic Fuinjin is most useless.

Chapter 53: The Medicine in the Gourd

The atmosphere in the wooden house was very depressing for a while. Looking at the nine swaying tails behind the man, facing the perfect Jinchūriki that they had never seen before and only existed in rumors, the ninjas' hearts were weighed down by the heavy pressure and they dared not even breathe. Cold sweat flowed down their bodies.

But Guo Linglong, who appears relaxed on the surface, is not at ease.

The power of the Nine-Tails is indeed very strong, as strong as a plug-in, but the Third Generation's Shikigami Fuujin has the power to seal plug-ins.

He didn't know the weaknesses and prevention methods of the Shiki Fuujin, and he didn't know whether he, as a perfect Jinchūriki, could block the Shiki Fuujin, so he was "afraid" of this unknown ninjutsu.

But unlike ordinary people who would run away because of fear, Guo Linglong knew better than anyone that the best way to overcome fear is to face it head-on... So he did not retreat but instead advanced, actively looking for the ninjas, and stared at the Third Generation with eyes without any fear.

He didn't believe that Sarutobi Hiruzen, who had been tortured by him like that, had no fear in his heart! As long as the fear of him truly existed in Sarutobi Hiruzen's heart, then his talent that even Dark Eden coveted would be brought to its full potential at this moment!

————————————————————

Facing the man who ran up to a group of ninjas and announced that the war was about to begin and gave himself and others a day to prepare, Sarutobi Hiruzen, who had originally planned to use the Shiki Fuujin again to die together with the man in front of him, gradually hesitated when he saw Guo Linglong's fearless eyes.

He is already old, and the passage of time has not only made him stronger, but also made him more determined and understand what "concern" means.

Although the time of contact was short, his impression of Guo Linglong was that of a man with great scheming, daring thoughts and actions, and unfathomable wisdom. He played around with many girls of unknown origin in his Konoha, and even took the Nine-Tails away by force.

Even after the fact, Sarutobi Hiruzen still couldn't figure out Guo Linglong's incredible actions.

How could such a man with so much foresight stand in front of him even though he knew that he could cast the Shikigami Fuujin?

Did he have something to rely on that he didn't know about? Was there something fishy going on? Was the other party deliberately trying to provoke him to use the Demonic Sealing Art?

His mind was filled with questions and the more he thought about it, the more frightened he became, so he hesitated and stopped making seals.

No matter what, at least Guo Linglong has no intention of starting a war with the ninjas right here, so there is no need to rush to use the Shiki Fuujin...

"Very good, very good. It seems that you have more or less understood the current situation."

Guo Linglong looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen who had put away his hand seals with satisfaction, and then whispered: "Then please leave from here. Tomorrow I will start from here and move forward to recreate the Nine-Tails' attack on Konoha twelve years ago. Do you understand? You only have one day to prepare."

The ninjas looked at each other, not knowing how to answer, and could only focus their attention on the Third Hokage standing beside them.

"I have a question."

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Guo Linglong with complicated eyes, and said with a voice full of regret: "You obviously have such a talent, why don't you use it in the right way? Is it because of Konoha? Is it because of what Konoha did to you that you want to launch such a counterattack and revenge against Konoha?"

“These are clearly two questions.”

Guo Linglong shrugged and shook her head, "In fact, Konoha has never done anything excessive to me, but I have no choice here."

"Can't help myself?"

"Yes."

Guo Linglong looked at the ninjas calmly, and finally fixed her gaze on Hongcha who seemed to be thinking about something: "No matter how hostile you are to Dark Eden, I don't want to deny the great kindness Dark Eden has shown me. It was they who gave me the necessary help when I was desperate, allowing me to keep my home without resorting to dirty tricks."

"Are you talking about wishes?"

Hongcha frowned slightly. She could hear that the man was hinting at something in his words.

"Although Dark Eden thinks this is just a deal between us, I still have to repay this favor, so I must destroy Konoha Village and rewrite the future of this world."

After Guo Linglong finished speaking meaningfully, she turned around and looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen. He had already hinted... no, made it clear to this extent, that smart magical girl should understand, right?

"Dark Eden?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen muttered these four words. He had never heard of this organization. Has Konoha ever offended such a small and unknown organization?

But no matter what, looking at Guo Linglong's determined eyes, he understood that it was useless to say anything now, and the war with the Nine-Tails would once again come to Konoha Village.

"Okay...it's time for the men to change."

Guo Linglong unbuttoned her shirt one by one, looked around wantonly and said, "You should leave now."

After saying that, the clothes were thrown aside, and the naked man appeared in front of everyone. Then a lot of thick hair grew out of his body, and nine tails continued to expand along with his body.

The ninjas who sensed the strong dangerous atmosphere subconsciously evacuated the hut, watching as the wooden house was blown up all of a sudden and continued to expand to a height of tens of meters. Its appearance had completely lost its human form. What appeared in front of the ninjas was a giant fox with nine tails, roaring to the sky.

Some ninjas who had participated in the battle against the Nine-Tails twelve years ago felt their legs go weak and they fell to the ground. Sarutobi Hiruzen looked extremely ugly, because after revealing his original form, the consciousness that dominated this body was still Guo Linglong. He controlled the Nine-Tails' body to yawn, and then looked down at her from above.

This... is the Nine-Tailed Fox? !

Standing among a group of people trembling with fear, Hongcha was the only one who was not intimidated, because "doubt" had already occupied her heart.

Guo Linglong, who had planned everything, made too many illogical moves in just a few hours.

Allowing himself to resurrect Uzumaki Naruto and the Third Hokage is one of them.

After mastering the power of the Nine-Tails, he deliberately gave the ninjas time to prepare.

The third reason is that he has already mastered the Nine-Tailed Fox, but he does not use alchemy to refine it, which completely distorts the future of the fantasy world.

Putting these illogical practices together and then thinking about it for a while, an almost absurd conclusion came to Hongcha's mind.

"Although this conclusion may be the result of your deliberate misleading..."

Staring at the huge beast lying lazily in front of him, Hongcha clenched his fists tightly.

She seemed to have realized what the man was up to.

Chapter 54: The Hero Has Not Yet Awakened

In a residential building that can be seen everywhere in Konoha...

Uzumaki Naruto woke up from his bed and subconsciously took a alert posture, looking around suspiciously.

After confirming that this was his dirty and messy room and that he was alone with him, Uzumaki Naruto finally relaxed and began to recall what had happened.

Although he was determined to become Hokage with his own strength, the temptation to get rid of the burden of the Nine-Tails was too great, so even if he felt something was wrong, he still did what the uncle said. He used the transformation technique to change into the appearance of the uncle, walked with the strange woman, and then... and then...

Naruto suddenly remembered something and subconsciously lifted up his clothes. The sealing technique engraved on his abdomen had disappeared at some point.

It worked!

Naruto sat down on the bed in a daze, then jumped up in surprise. Even though he had a bump on his head, he kept smiling foolishly.

The Nine-Tailed Fox is truly no longer there.

The Nine-Tailed Fox that had troubled him for four thousand nights was really gone!

And the body is so light!

Uzumaki Naruto felt for the first time in his life that his body was so light. This was not an illusion. Ever since the Nine-Tails was gone from his body, his chakra seemed to be liberated and it was running much smoother. Even many ninjutsu that he could not use before could be performed easily at this moment.

The mind is so light!

That uncle really did it. He really freed himself from the Nine-Tails' bondage. Now he is just Uzumaki Naruto, not a monster! Not a monster! Not a monster!

Naruto was so excited that he didn't know how to express his joy. To celebrate this moment, he threw the fragile door panel away in excitement. But he didn't care and just ran out of the house, wanting to tell Iruka-sensei, and then go to Ichiraku's to eat two big bowls of ramen to celebrate...

Standing in front of the closed door of Ichiraku Ramen, Naruto, who had been immersed in ecstasy, suddenly realized that something was wrong with the atmosphere.

The surrounding shops were closed, and the streets that should have been crowded with pedestrians were empty.

Standing alone on the empty street, Naruto, who was a little overwhelmed, suddenly felt something and subconsciously looked towards the dense forest in the distance. The usual lush green and gold had been replaced by red and gray. The gray was the thick fog rising into the sky, the red was the dazzling flames, and nine swaying tails could be vaguely seen in the thick smoke.

"Kid, do you have a lot of questions?"

On the empty street, a woman who had someone hold an umbrella for her in broad daylight and had a teacup in her hand appeared in front of Naruto, who was confused. She chuckled and asked, "Where are the people on the street? Where are the ninjas? What is the thick smoke in the deep forest? Why are all the shops closed? And... who are you?"

"Ah! You're the one!"

Naruto slapped his head and finally remembered the woman in front of him. She was the one Uncle Guo asked him to follow. Then he subconsciously took a alert posture. It was this woman who poured some unknown liquid on him, making him experience excruciating pain.

"The Nine-Tailed Fox is coming."

Hongcha didn't pay attention to the kid's actions, but looked towards the place where the smoke was rising. "The ninjas used a day to evacuate the people outside the village, and then gathered all the forces to fight against the Nine-Tails... It was just like a replica of twelve years ago."

"Twelve years ago? Kyuubi?"

Naruto rubbed the back of his head in confusion.

"What a simple child."

Hongcha shook her head and said, "Have you not come to your senses yet? If the Nine-Tailed Fox is not in your body, then where else could it be?"

"what do you mean……"

Naruto looked at the forest in amazement. Could it be that the Nine-Tails, released from its seal, was fighting the ninjas there? !

"Yes, the two sides are fighting fiercely, but Konoha can't win."

Hongcha looked into the distance dimly and said, "They are facing an unprecedented enemy, who can not only perfectly display the terrifying power of the Nine-Tailed Fox, but also possesses impeccable intelligence, wisdom and courage, and a hexagonal boss with no blind spots... This is already a situation where a hundred magical girls have to be mobilized to fight. They can't win."

Although he didn't know the general idea, Naruto still understood the three words "can't win". Only then did he realize how careless he was. He didn't even ask in advance where the Nine-Tails would go after it was unsealed.

"Once he has dealt with the ninjas of Konoha, he will soon begin to attack Konoha and trample this village under his feet and ravage it without restraint."

Hongcha reached into her sleeve and pulled out a ball and walked towards Uzumaki Naruto, "And all this is because you made a wish to him to get rid of the Kyuubi. Now the people you respect are fighting on the front lines."

"No, it's impossible... Kakashi-sensei... and the Third-Kai grandfather... everyone is here, how can we lose! How can we lose!"

Uzumaki Naruto covered his ears and staggered backwards.

"You are the only one who can't escape. After all, the only person who can stop the Nine-Tails' rampage is you, the former Nine-Tails Jinchuriki."

Hongcha caught Naruto who was trying to escape, and forced the ball in his hand into Naruto's hand, whispering: "Take it. This is my last struggle after being defeated again and again. It should be able to play a role when you fight him."

Naruto accepted the props given by Hongcha in a daze, and then ran towards the woods in a panic. The joy of getting rid of the Nine-Tails was gone. Naruto even had a feeling that it would be better if the Nine-Tails was still there...

Hongcha did not move, but just watched Naruto go away, then said to his subordinates calmly: "How is the battle going up front? The two gangs have been exchanging fire for a long time, so the winner should be decided, right?"

"Sister, the combat power of those Anbu and other ninjas is less than 10%."

Magical Girl Coffee, who had been using a crystal ball to monitor the battle between Konoha and the Nine-Tails, sighed with regret: "But it's not their fault. The enemy this time is completely different from the one twelve years ago. An individual the size of an ordinary adult can perfectly exert the power of the Nine-Tails with every move. Moreover, the opponent has also very cautiously chosen to fight a guerrilla war, which has eroded the fighting power of the ninjas bit by bit."

"As expected."

After Hongcha pondered for a while, he asked again: "What about the casualties?"

“The death toll is zero.”

The magical girl said bitterly, "That Dark Eden cadre is really despicable. He deliberately injured the ninjas but did not kill them, making the injured a burden that would drag down their combat effectiveness, thus speeding up the process of erosion. I have never seen such a dirty trick before."

"You're wrong. He didn't avoid killing in order to drag others down. He simply... didn't want to kill."

Hongcha held up the flower umbrella, looked at the battlefield ahead which was gradually dying down and said, "If I'm not mistaken, the 'tool' given to Uzumaki Naruto should be able to put an end to this war."

Chapter 55: The Fruits of Victory

The battle in the forest of Konoha is still going on.

Kakashi led a group of ninjas to invade the dense forest. Under the leadership of Sarutobi Hiruzen, he was ready to fight a decisive battle with the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki. However, when he actually faced Guo Linglong, he realized how wrong he and others were.

Twelve years ago, when the Nine-Tails attacked Konoha, he was just a Jonin. He was immature in every aspect at that time and was the one being protected. Faced with the tragedies of his teacher's death, his colleagues' deaths and the devastation of the village, he could do nothing.

Twelve years have passed. A man of unknown origin descended from the sky and took away the Nine-Tails with means beyond human imagination. In an extremely short period of time, he completed the transition from a Jinchūriki to a perfect Jinchūriki, and vowed to replicate the catastrophe of twelve years ago in Konoha.

Twelve years of time, twelve years of training, twelve years of accumulation, Konoha has recovered from the catastrophe, those who were originally protected have grown up, and they themselves have become much stronger, however... there is a kind of growth that is called, it is useless.

The ninjas who were ready to enter the battlefield were not facing the colossal tailed beast from twelve years ago, but a perfect jinchūriki. He was thin and thousands of times smaller than the Nine-Tails. This body size combined with his flexible and insidious fighting methods dealt a painful blow to the ninjas who wanted to fight head-on!

Just like he is now...

Kakashi, who was lying on the ground and coughing up blood weakly, looked ahead. Guo Linglong, whose body was filled with the Nine-Tails Chakra, gritted his teeth and said, "You obviously have such a strong power, but you still set up an ambush and used sneak attacks... It's too much!"

"Is it too much?"

Guo Linglong looked at the wounded soldiers on the ground, and sighed at the enemy's great strength. She said leisurely, "You guys are so great and glorious for fighting me alone? Who told you to split up? If you gather together, won't I be able to kill the lone person?"
