Naruto starts from the Otsutsuki bloodline

Chapter 212 Let's Take Action! (Please Subscribe)
"Welcome, distinguished guests of Konoha."

Inside Takigakure Village, the ninja leader looked at Kitagawa Gen and the others with a smile on his face.

"It's been years, but you all still look as radiant as ever. I must thank you all for what happened back then."

"Sir, hello, it's been a long time."

Jiraiya greeted him with a smile. He remembered this person; it was the same person who had received them years ago.

Time has passed, but this person seems unchanged, and the land of Taki no Kuni remains the same.

But they have undergone tremendous changes; for example, the Fourth Raikage is no longer around.
Shaking his head, Jiraiya felt that he had been corrupted by Kitagawa Gen, and he composed himself before smiling and saying.

"There's no need to bring up what happened back then. You still look as radiant as ever."

The two exchanged pleasantries and seemed exceptionally warm towards each other.

Naruto and Sasuke remained silent, curiously observing their surroundings.

They had been on many missions over the past three years, but this was the first time they had ever been to someone else's village.

"And what's more, the lecherous immortal actually has such a serious side?"

Naruto blinked and laughed with some surprise, while Kitagawa Gen chuckled softly.

"Don't underestimate the lecherous immortal. Although he may seem frivolous at times, he is always very reliable."

"Indeed, Jiraiya-sama has always been like that."

Kakashi nodded in agreement, watching Jiraiya and the other person engage in some mutual flattery before leading them into the village, before continuing to speak.

"Let's go, we can talk about it when we rest."

"Oh."

Naruto nodded. Actually, he didn't need Kakashi to remind him; his parents had already given him the hint in his mind.

Although Sasuke looked disdainful, he didn't say anything until they entered the lounge that had been provided for them.

"These guys seem pretty perfunctory, like they have no intention of negotiating at all. And their defenses here are terrible, they don't even have a barrier?"

"Sasuke, not every village is like Konoha."

Kakashi leaned against the wall, looking at Jiraiya who had already set up a soundproof barrier, before continuing.

“Sealing teams and barrier teams are very precious. Only major ninja villages have them. Takigakure is obviously lacking in this regard.”

"However, such large barriers are useless against powerful ninjas or those with space-time ninjutsu."

Kitagawa Gen shrugged and said with amusement, though his words were unpleasant to hear, Jiraiya nodded.

"Indeed, whether it was Obito Uchiha or your surprise attack on Kumogakure last time, they both relied on space-time ninjutsu."

"But this seems pretty good too."

Sasuke doesn't think much of Takigakure; he only cares about the Akatsuki.

"Didn't the Second Generation Teacher and the Third Generation Master say that it would be better if they were attacked? I wonder if we'll be able to run into them."

"You've really been corrupted."

Kakashi sighed; he always felt that the squad he led was becoming increasingly extreme.

Fortunately, Sakura hasn't changed. Although she's not strong enough, at least she hasn't gone astray. Also, Naruto has his parents watching over him and seems to behave himself.

Otherwise, he dared not imagine what would have become of his squad in Kitagawa Gen's hands.

"actually."

Kitagawa Gen glanced outside, then suddenly spoke in a low voice.

"I have a feeling they've already arrived."

"Um?!"

Kitagawa Gen's words immediately made Kakashi and Jiraiya's expressions freeze, while Sasuke and Naruto's eyes lit up.

Sasuke was even more anxious. He activated his Sharingan and looked into the distance, asking in a low voice.

"Senior, are you really here?"

"Yeah, don't forget I've fought them all."

Kitagawa Gen nodded, leaning against the windowsill with one hand as he looked out the window and spoke slowly.

"It's impossible for me not to leave something on them. I didn't feel it before, but just now..."

"Did Kamui bring it?"

Kakashi instantly understood. He stood up and stared into the distance, while Jiraiya asked curiously.

"Nagato"

"It's here, even..."

Kitagawa Gen tilted his head, his expression somewhat strange.

"Those who died have also come."

As he spoke, his gaze drifted into the distance, as did Kakashi, Jiraiya, and the others.

In the distance, an endless curtain of black iron sand suddenly unfolded.

It was like a black blanket, instantly covering the entire sky above Takigakure!
A figure soared into the air, hovering in mid-air and looking down at everything.

Not only that, but many figures also leaped onto the towering buildings.

Although their numbers were small, they seemed to have completely surrounded Takigakure.
"My lord, do you think those people from Konoha coming here is another..."

After the head of the ninja from the Land of Waterfall led the Konoha members to the foreign guests' lounge, the higher-ups of the Land of Waterfall also gathered for a meeting.

The sudden visit from Konoha people caused them some headaches and trouble, and they roughly understood what was going on.

"They must be here again because of the Seven-Tails."

Takigakure sighed and spoke with some annoyance.

“This isn’t the first time they’ve done this in the past three years. We’ve refused every time, but they haven’t given up!”

"Hmph, Konoha is almost the strongest ninja in the world now, how can their ambitions be so great?"

One of the elders couldn't help but speak up, somewhat displeased.

“They have their own Nine-Tails, Iwagakure has the Four-Tails and Five-Tails, Kirigakure has the Three-Tails and Six-Tails, and Sunagakure has the One-Tails. They already have a total of six tailed beasts. Isn’t that enough?”

"Perhaps it's to have more say in the league. Nine-Tails is strong, but there's only one of them."

"Then why not attack Kumogakure and Sunagakure?"

"Perhaps they also want, or even want three tailed beasts for each village, who knows?"

"Damn it, those greedy vampires!"

The alliance of Konoha is formidable, with the three great ninja villages united as one. Anyone in this situation would feel their scalp tingle.

Whatever they do, others will think they have ulterior motives, or that they are fighting for interests and power.

"So what do we do?"

Taki rubbed his temples, feeling an unusual headache.

"Continue to refuse? This time they've sent Jiraiya, one of the Legendary Sannin, Kakashi the Copy Ninja, and..."

"He single-handedly defeated the Fourth Raikage and the Kazekage, and led a team of three to conquer Kumogakure. The new generation Silver Flash, the White Fang of Konoha, is the most likely ninja to quell the chaos of the world."

"Ken Kitagawa is destined to become the next Hokage!"

Do you think this matter can be easily forgotten?

After these words, the entire higher-ups of Takigakure fell into a deathly silence.

Although Kitagawa Gen hasn't made many moves in the past three years, and even the details of his initial attack on Kumogakure haven't been revealed much.

The alliance of the three clans of Konoha couldn't be explained so clearly, and the Hidden Cloud Village regarded this matter as a great disgrace.

Even if many of them have lost their fighting spirit, they still have a sense of shame. How could they possibly talk about their past experiences and fears?

Even the smallest amount of information that gets out is enough to be shocking!
"Then what should we do?" After what seemed like an eternity, an elder finally spoke up helplessly.

"Do we really have to compromise?"

"Kitagawa Gen's arrival might really be an ultimatum."

The other elder also looked pained, vividly demonstrating the struggles and helplessness of the small country.

"Do we really have no other choice?"

"Let's take a look first."

Takigakure's ninja head sighed; they really didn't have many options left!
"Ok?"

Just as he was about to say something, his expression suddenly froze, as if he had sensed something.

zizi——

The light bulb above his head flickered on and off at that moment, and even made a series of rattling noises indicating poor contact.

The next moment, black iron sand filled the sky, just like an iron curtain that enveloped the entire Takigakure Village!

"That is."

They were all a little stunned, but before they could even think, the roaring power had already erupted!

A massive shockwave swept through the entire village, instantly engulfing the buildings and streets near the outskirts.

Under that violent force, they were all mercilessly crushed!
A cloud of dust billowed up, instantly obscuring everything and making Takigakure Village, already shrouded in iron sand, even darker.

Amidst the smoke and dust, shouts of varying strength, intermittent groans, and painful cries intertwined.

"What the hell is going on?"

These people were knocked down by the invisible shockwave, but they quickly got up.

They all looked out the window and saw that the outer areas of the village were in a mess, and even the areas closer to the inside were affected.

Countless people fell to the ground, many houses were damaged, and some even collapsed.

This scene infuriated them, and they also saw figures in the sky.

The black iron sand made their vision exceptionally poor, preventing them from seeing who the guy was, but they knew that this guy was responsible for all of this!
"Hand over the Seven-Tails, or else..."

"You bear the consequences!"

But the cold voice echoed throughout the entire Takigakure, and the violent aura sent chills down everyone's spine.

Moreover, this guy's words made them realize the problem!
Nanao
This guy came for the Seven-Tails?!

What a coincidence that they arrived just as the people from Konoha were about to arrive?
"Wait, that guy."

Suddenly, they all seemed to realize something.

Although the entire Takigakure was shrouded in darkness, they could still see the guy's red hair, and...
"Aren't those the guys who fought Kitagawa Gen and the others outside the village back then?"

They couldn't mistake the long robe with black background and red clouds; they now realized that the problem seemed to be quite serious!
They all remembered the battle from back then; the destruction was truly beyond their imagination.

They weren't without their worries that Konoha might have done this on purpose, perhaps they had received intelligence and that's why they came.

Or perhaps...
Are they working together to put on a show?

"Kill him!"

The Takigakure ninjas immediately began to retaliate, with the uninjured ninjas spontaneously forming teams and cooperating to charge towards Nagato and the others.

Nagato didn't make a move, but the others had already started!
For a moment, the entire Takigakure was in complete chaos.

"That's quite a show-off."

Inside Konoha and the others' room, looking at the chaotic scene, Kitagawa Gen couldn't help but shake his head and speak.

"But why did they do that?"

Jiraiya looked at Nagato, suppressing his anxiety, and asked in a low voice.

Aren't they afraid of incurring public wrath?

"Indeed, although it's completely certain that their target is the Tailed Beasts, but..."

Kakashi nodded, and while searching for Obito Uchiha, he spoke in a low voice.

"Isn't this going a bit too far? Even though they were already wanted, this is still somewhat unexpected."

"It's not entirely unexpected, considering they're not weak to begin with."

Kitagawa Gen shook his head, recalling how they had directly defeated Sunagakure in their first battle and even captured the Kazekage.

They're only targeting Takigakure now, which means they've already shown some restraint.

Moreover, for the entire ninja world, there is an even more significant target standing in their way!
"Um, are we just going to do nothing?"

Kitagawa Gen and the others remained unmoved, which made Naruto, who was standing to the side, a little anxious.

"Isn't it inappropriate to just watch like this?"

"There's nothing wrong with it; it's fine to let them move around a bit more."

Kitagawa Gen smiled and glanced at Sasuke, who was also searching for Itachi Uchiha's whereabouts.

The fact that he didn't rush out immediately upon seeing the Akatsuki members already shows that he truly embodies the spirit of a 'ninja'.

"But. But"

Naruto was starting to feel the pressure, but Kitagawa Gen remained calm.

"Didn't the Second and Third Hokage say last time that sometimes it's necessary to let the ninja world know about the dangers of Akatsuki? Why don't you obey the Hokage's orders?"

"I didn't, I just..."

Naruto glanced outside at the constant roar of ninjutsu and the continuous deaths of Takigakure ninja, and clenched his fist.

Clearly, he couldn't stand it all.

The screams outside grew louder and louder, and the roar and destruction constantly stimulated his nerves.

"A ninja must remain calm and assess the situation carefully."

Kitagawa Gen remained the same. He glanced at Kakashi and Jiraiya before continuing.

"Don't you know we should seize the best opportunity before we act, Naruto?"

"."

Naruto didn't speak; he simply looked up at the outside, his chakra already surging within him.

Clearly, he is ready to make a move at any time!

"I have a question for you, Naruto."

Kitagawa Genya had been keeping a close eye on the situation in Takigakure Village, and suddenly he asked a question.

When are people most likely to let their guard down? Or, in other words, when are they least vigilant?

"this."

Naruto didn't know what Kitagawa Gen meant, but just then, another change suddenly occurred in Takigakure.

"Found it! The Seven-Tails Jinchuriki is over here!"

With a loud shout, everyone's attention was involuntarily drawn to the source of the sound.

At that very moment, a surge of violent chakra erupted, causing the entire room to tremble precariously.

"Ok?"

While in mid-air, Nagato suddenly sensed something.

In the blink of an eye, a pair of silver eyes appeared before him, and terrifying purple lightning accompanied by a white dagger was unleashed!

In the room, the words left behind by Kitagawa Gen after his disappearance still seemed to echo.

"It was when they thought they were about to 'win'."
