Naruto: Talent entry, starting with Otsutsuki bloodline

Chapter 191 Your end is just my beginning.
The Country of Wind, Sand Hidden Village.

The desert temperature is very low at night, and the cold wind howls.

Apart from the patrolling ninjas, every household had turned off their lights and gone to sleep. The streets were deserted except for a few taverns that were still lit up to entertain some drunkards.

The tranquility of the night even made the patrolling ninjas want to slack off.

Just then, a black hole the size of a fist appeared in the central street of Sunagakure.

Then three figures flew out from inside: Nagato's wooden clone, and Deidara and Sasori, the artistic duo.

"I'll leave the One-Tailed Jinchuriki to you. I'll send an Edo Tensei team to assist you," Nagato said to Sasori and Deidara.

"Leave it to us with confidence, Boss." Deidara grinned. "I heard that the Fifth Kazekage is just a brat who has only recently taken office. He doesn't need any assistance at all. I can take care of him all by myself."

"Don't be too arrogant. The Fifth Kazekage is the same age as the Sixth Hokage. Of the three candidates for the Five Kage position, he is the one who will succeed the fastest," Sasori of the Red Sand said in a deep voice. "If you underestimate him, you will suffer."

“Sasori is right, don’t underestimate anyone.” Nagato nodded and instructed, “You all work together and make sure to capture the One-Tailed Jinchuriki as quickly as possible, otherwise Otsutsuki Toneri and Izayoi may intervene at any time, and then the situation will be terrible.”

Upon hearing this, both Deidara and Sasori of the Red Sand turned serious.

Over the years, the four super-powerful forces have shattered the arrogance of those rogue ninjas in the Akatsuki organization.

They also gained a deep understanding of the power of rewriting maps.

If that kind of force intervenes, they might not even have a chance to escape.

Deidara nodded seriously and said, "I understand, leader."

"Do it!"

Sasori of the Red Sand took out a large scroll and urged them on.

With a deafening roar, the explosion and flames shattered the tranquility of the night.

The alarm woke up the villagers and Sand Ninja who were chatting at home or going to bed early.

"Ninja Technique·Four Purple Flame Formation!"

Four figures covered in cracks appeared in the four cardinal directions of the Wind Shadow Building. They quickly formed hand seals, creating a purple, transparent barrier that surrounded the Wind Shadow Building.

"It's the Four Purple Flame Formation! Enemy attack!!!"

"Is this tactic another instance of Otsutsuki Toneri's puppet army?"

"First, escort the villagers to the shelter, then everyone come and support Lord Kazekage!"

"..."

Seeing the rising Four Purple Flame Formation, the Sand Ninja instinctively assumed that it was Otsutsuki Toneri attacking again.

After all, the memory of the puppet army's attack on the five great ninja villages is still as clear as if it happened yesterday.

When the Jonin wearing a vest directed his subordinates to escort the villagers while he himself headed towards the barrier, his expression quickly changed drastically.

"No, this isn't a puppet army, it's Edo Tensei!"

"It's the leader of Akatsuki, and their target is Lord Kazekage!"

"Go and inform the elders immediately!"

"..."

Just as they were taking action, the Wind Shadow Building had already been reduced to ruins by an explosion.

However, a figure flew out riding on a cloud of sand and crashed into the barrier.

"Sand-bound coffin!"

Gaara raised his hand towards a reanimated ghost below, controlled the sand beneath its feet to envelop it, and then crushed it.

The barrier that had just been erected vanished instantly.

"It seems we can't finish this quickly."

Deidara, who had just blown up the Kazekage Building with explosive clay, instantly forgot Nagato's earlier instructions and laughed excitedly, "Only a venue like this is worthy of being my stage for performing arts."

After saying that, Deidara rode on a large white bird and chased after Gaara.

"This idiot, I hope nothing goes wrong." Sasori shook his head, but he also cooperated very well with Deidara, controlling the puppet army to help Deidara hold off the Sand Ninja who wanted to use ranged ninjutsu to attack him, so that Deidara could fight to his heart's content.

The Impure World Reincarnation team also came to assist Sasori of the Red Sand.

A battle similar to the one in the original story immediately unfolds.

……

While Sunagakure was being attacked, other major ninja villages were also attacked.

Not only the great ninja villages, but even Takigakure was not spared from this calamity, as it was also invaded by the Akatsuki organization.

Because of the butterfly effect caused by Izayoi, Nagato deliberately went to capture the Five-Tails Jinchuriki and the Seven-Tails Jinchuriki to use as power banks during the final battle.

After waking up from his dream, Nagato also voluntarily released the Five-Tails Jinchuriki and the Seven-Tails Jinchuriki.

Madara Uchiha, who wanted to avoid arousing the suspicion of the five great ninja villages in advance, did not stop it at the time.

Therefore, fearing that their strategic weapons would be captured again, the major ninja villages and Takigakure, which were in a period of strange peace, stopped sending their jinchūriki out on missions.

After Mei Terumi succeeded to the position of Fifth Mizukage two years earlier than in the original story, she also pardoned the Six-Tails Jinchuriki, Utakata, and summoned him back to Kirigakure.

Unfortunately, Kirigakure's overall strength is simply too weak.

When Toneri Otsutsuki's puppet army attacked Kirigakure, they also killed the Byakugan assassin Ao and stole his Byakugan, causing Kirigakure to lose another elite Jonin, adding insult to injury.

If Utakata doesn't return, Kirigakure will only have Mei Terumi as its Kage-level shinobi, and they won't even be able to muster two ace fighters to protect her.

However, this action also led to another attack on Kirigakure.

Nagato and Obito Uchiha's wood clones, along with members of the Akatsuki organization and the Edo Tensei army, invaded these ninja villages that possessed Jinchuriki.

With Nagato's restraint and control, the Akatsuki members and the Edo Tensei squad initially tried to appease the Jinchuriki, but ultimately only managed to trap them with a barrier.

Once the Jinchuriki is defeated, they will use Kamui to take him away, minimizing casualties.

But if the barrier is broken, then war will be the only option.

Coincidentally, in order to deal with Toneri Otsutsuki's puppet army, all the major ninja villages except Takigakure developed techniques to break the Four Purple Flame Formation.

Although the Impure World Reincarnation technique possesses unlimited chakra, this "unlimited" refers to the fact that it can be quickly replenished after being used up, or even instantly replenished.

The level of chakra a deceased person possessed during their lifetime is what determines the level of chakra they are resurrected with.

Nagato didn't have many Kage-level trump cards, so he couldn't possibly use the Four Red Sun Formation in every ninja village.

Seeing that the Four Purple Flame Formation had been broken, Nagato, who had been very restrained, instantly abandoned his gentle and kind side and directly summoned a large number of reanimated ghosts to start a war against the various ninja villages.

The number of ninjas is extremely small; there are only about 100,000 in the entire ninja world.

Compared to the number of civilians in the ninja world, it's insignificant.

Sacrificing the individual for the greater good—Nagato is capable of such things.

He must make Madara Uchiha the Ten-Tails' jinchūriki.

Only in this way could Madara Uchiha have the power to fight against Toneri Otsutsuki and protect the world.

……

In the ninja world at night, war rages.

The common people of the five great nations, as well as those of the smaller countries, were unaware that a war that would determine the future of the ninja world had already broken out. On the moon, Izayoi, whose Rinnegan had taken in the entire battle of the ninja world, sat on her throne, her right hand supporting her chin, looking at Uchiha Madara in the center of the hall, and said with interest, "You've certainly acted quickly, but I'm very curious, what do you plan to do with Kurama?"

"That's none of your concern." Madara Uchiha scrutinized 'Otsutsuki Toneri' on the throne, staring intently at his Rinne Tenseigan, his expression extremely grave. "You've changed quite a bit in the last two years. What's wrong with those eyes? And where is your original body?"

Because Izayoi's wood clone was not in Six Paths Sage Mode, Madara Uchiha sensed his chakra instantly.

Although he absorbed the chakra of the Yin Nine-Tails, Izayoi's wood clone had an even more astonishing amount of chakra than the complete Eight-Tails. Its strength was enough to overwhelm everyone in the ninja world except for Madara Uchiha, making it an absolute Six Paths level powerhouse.

However, Madara Uchiha immediately realized that this Izayoi was not the real Izayoi, but just a clone.

At that moment, Madara Uchiha felt that the rhythm had slipped out of his control.

He was absolutely certain that the ninja world did not possess Toneri Otsutsuki's chakra.

The moon only has the chakra of this clone.

In other words, Otsutsuki Toneri's true form is currently neither on Earth nor on the Moon.

Clearly, the other party has either gone to the depths of the universe or is hiding in another dimension.

The former doesn't matter, but Madara Uchiha is afraid of the latter.

If the opponent suddenly appears at a crucial moment, then with Nagato and the others' strength, they will definitely not be his match.

At that time, Otsutsuki Toneri will be the one to seduce others.

Madara Uchiha suddenly regretted coming to the moon in his true form.

If he had known earlier, he would have sent a wooden clone while his main body remained below to oversee the situation.

Fortunately, the wooden clone that was meant to restrain Izayoi did not actually fight with Izayoi.

The pace hasn't completely spiraled out of control yet!
If I can quickly eliminate this clone, I can use the Gedo Mazo to instantly return to the ninja world.

Just as Madara Uchiha was about to make his move, he suddenly heard Izayoi speak: "Do you remember the same words I said to you the first and second time we met?"

"What?" Madara Uchiha was slightly taken aback, his attention successfully diverted by Izayoi.

With a contemptuous smile, Izayoi said, "As a half-Otsutsuki, you have to go through countless hardships to experience the pain of losing a loved one, or to feel the existence of love, in order to awaken the Mangekyou Sharingan, which would cause you to go blind. Then you have to transplant the eyes of a loved one who has also awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan in order to awaken the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan, which still has a low success rate."

Even so, your strength still hasn't reached the pinnacle of humanity.

"To cross into the realm of another dimension, you must undergo the process of unifying the two poles, and it will take until you die of old age to barely cross that threshold."

"If your resurrection is unsuccessful, then awakening the Rinnegan is already your limit."

"Even if you were resurrected in your prime, without the inheritance of the Sage of Six Paths, your chances of mastering the Sage of Six Paths Mode are slim. Unless you become the Ten-Tails' Jinchuriki, crossing the threshold of another dimension is still the end that you, a lucky half-Otsutsuki, can reach."

Madara Uchiha had a bad feeling and frowned slightly as he asked, "What are you trying to say?"

"I told you before that you need the unification of two poles and the ability to die of old age to unlock the ultimate eye technique. As a pure-blooded Otsutsuki, I obtained it easily several years ago." Izayoi smiled playfully. "But there's a cruel truth I haven't told you, though you should have noticed it in the genjutsu world, right?"

Madara Uchiha quickly reviewed the scenes he had seen in the genjutsu world, and his expression suddenly changed.

Seeing his expression, Izayoi couldn't help but laugh: "It seems you've already figured it out. This is the difference between mixed-blood and pure-blood. The end point you need to reach with talent and luck is just my starting point."

"However, my halfway point, and my finish line, are things you simply cannot imagine."

Madara Uchiha's mood instantly sank to the bottom.

Looking at Izayoi's Rinne Tenseigan, he asked in a deep voice, "What are these eyes called? What is their relationship to Isshiki Otsutsuki's eye?"

"Isn't it obvious enough what my eyes are called?" Izayoi chuckled.

whoosh-

Madara Uchiha stopped wasting words and directly controlled a Truth-Seeking Ball, which flashed with a dazzling white light and shot towards Izayoi.

Its speed was as fast as a shooting star.

As if she had already foreseen this scene, before the Truth-Seeking Ball flew in front of her, she propped her face up with one hand, raised the other hand slightly, and gently tapped it with her finger.

A black vertical line appeared in space, then opened like a mouth, swallowing the Truth-Seeking Ball that was flying over at an unstoppable speed, and then quickly closed its mouth without leaking any explosive energy.

Seeing this, Madara Uchiha's expression became even more serious.

He knew that Otsutsuki Toneri had completed his evolution again.

Spacetime abilities are no longer used for teleportation and object manipulation, but can be used for defense, or even... attack.

I just don't know if this ability is his exclusive eye technique, or a... basic ability of his new eyes?

And... has he mastered the Sage of Six Paths Mode?
Do these eyes truly possess the power of the Rinnegan and Tenseigan, as he believes?
To find out the truth, Madara Uchiha, holding the Sage's Staff, flew towards Izayoi.

There were also four unseen shadows around him.

When they make a move, they go all out.

……

At the same time, the battle in the ninja world became increasingly fierce.

Because a third party has joined the fight!

Black cracks appeared in the sky, then rapidly expanded, forming a huge square black hole.

Then, one after another, human puppets floated down from the black hole, appearing with an astonishing sense of oppression, unlike the sudden appearance two years ago.

To avoid causing a larger butterfly effect that would force the interruption of his own evolution, Izayoi has been refraining from farming points for the past two years.

Now that the evolution is finally complete, Madara Uchiha has sounded the horn for the final battle, and Izayoi certainly won't miss this opportunity.

Even a small mosquito is still meat; he's just a few hundred thousand points away from upgrading another red keyword to a colored one.

With the appearance of the puppet army, apart from Konoha and Amegakure, the other four major ninja villages have been engulfed in war, and the ruins are rapidly expanding.

As for Takigakure, it escaped the calamity of being reduced to ruins because the Seven-Tails Jinchuriki was captured.

……

Konoha, at Izayoi's house.

Madara Uchiha's wood clone seemed to have received some kind of message, and its expression suddenly turned extremely ugly.

"It seems things aren't going well for your main body."

Having eaten and drunk his fill, Izayoi sipped his tea and chuckled jokingly.

Madara Uchiha didn't speak, but hesitated whether to leave and personally capture the remaining tailed beasts.

But if I leave, then Izayoi will be free from any constraints.

At that time, Madara Uchiha will have no idea what the fastest ninja in the world is planning to do.

Just as Madara Uchiha was struggling with a decision, a blurry figure appeared out of nowhere next to Izayoi.

Uzuki Yugao knelt on one knee, her voice respectful yet slightly trembling as she said, "Lord Hokage, something has happened."

“I know, you saw it too,” Izayoi said with a smile. “I can’t leave right now, so go and bring the Chakra TV over.”

"Yes."

Uzuki Yugao glanced at Uchiha Madara sitting opposite Izayoi, and then quickly disappeared in a flash.

Soon, Konoha was thrown into chaos.
