Naruto starts from the Otsutsuki bloodline

Chapter 222 A Flower Taking a Step Towards the Sky, A Chronicle of Time (Please Subscribe)

In three years, Kitagawa Gen's home has changed a lot.

Although his location remains the same, as his status rises, he will certainly decorate his cottage more nicely.

He replaced everything except the furniture and decor, and even built a balcony to prevent Naruto, that idiot, from falling off the second floor again.

Besides, Naruto isn't the only one jumping out of his window from time to time; such a change is still necessary.

"Don't jump out of the window next time. That's not something a lady would do."

Kitagawa Gen made way for Ino and smiled, which made Ino a little embarrassed.

"Senior, I've come to see the flowers."

Perhaps it was Naruto and Karin who managed to kill Kitagawa Gen's well-tended flowers by overwatering them.

Over the past three years, Ino has come to visit from time to time, ostensibly for the flowers.
"Come in quickly."

Kitagawa Gen called out and then turned and went inside, while Ino, with a smile, took off her shoes and jumped in.

"Senior, it seems you've been on another mission these past few days. Even Naruto isn't around, and Karin seems quite busy, so I came to check on you. I didn't expect you to be back."

"I went to the Land of Waterfalls and just got back yesterday."

Kitagawa Gensui looked Ino over and over; Ino had shed the childishness he remembered.

Her golden hair was tied in a ponytail, and her delicate features were complemented by a pair of clear, bright light blue eyes.

She has also grown taller, and her fair skin is captivating.

But this didn't work on Kitagawa Gen, because he's even paler than Ino.
"You've really worked hard, senior."

Ino carried her shoes and walked barefoot to the entrance to put them away, while Kitagawa Gen found it somewhat amusing.

"It's not that hard, but for you, you could have just gone through the main entrance. Why go through all that trouble?"

"I've noticed that you rarely come home through the main entrance."

Ino stuck out her tongue, her face full of playfulness.

"Is it possible that I don't even need to open the door, and can just fly home using Thunder God Technique?"

This left Kitagawa Gen speechless. He discovered that even as these little ones grew up, they hadn't changed some of their 'bad habits'.

Konoha's education system is really inadequate.
"Never mind that, I should thank you. If it weren't for you, those two idiots Naruto and Karin might have killed my flowers again."

"That's because they care about their seniors."

Ino sat down opposite Kitagawa Gen, blinked, and then smiled and changed the subject.

"Senior, what kind of impressive mission did you undertake this time? I see some outsiders have come to the village, but of course, if it's not convenient to say."

"Actually, it's nothing. We went to the Land of Waterfalls because of their Seven-Tails Jinchuriki."

Kitagawa Gen didn't seem to mind, and instead smiled and said...

"However, this time it didn't go very smoothly either; we encountered members of the Akatsuki organization."

The Akatsuki organization is no secret in the ninja world, as their existence is extremely dangerous to the entire ninja world.

It was only because of Kitagawa Gen's heavy-handed approach of "sustainable exploitation" that such harm was not brought to the fore.

Of course, there were also unlucky ones.

Take, for example, the Fog Concealment.
Therefore, there's really nothing to hide about the Akatsuki organization, especially since Ino is truly extraordinary.

As a member of the Ino-Shika-Cho trio, she would know many things, so there was no need for her to hide anything.

"I never expected so many things to have happened."

After Kitagawa Gen finished speaking, Ino spoke with some emotion.

"Also, Sasuke actually killed that Uchiha Itachi? That's amazing."

“It’s really remarkable.”

Kitagawa Gen nodded in agreement, then asked curiously.

"Speaking of which, how have you all been lately?"

"Everything is fine, about the same as before."

Ino propped her head up with one hand, her golden hair brushing against her cheek, and she spoke with a smile.

"The mission wasn't too difficult, but Shikamaru still liked to complain. Choji was eating non-stop every day, and Asuma-sensei often left the missions to us because he went to find Kurenai-sensei..."

Ino couldn't stop talking about the funny things her team did, and Kitagawa Gen listened with great interest.

He himself hadn't experienced that much, and when he encountered the unreliable Kakashi, he could easily get double the rewards for any mission he took on.

In addition, he didn't have any teammates at the beginning, so he naturally couldn't experience anything.

After Naruto and Sasuke joined the team, there were many interesting things, but as the Jonin leading the team, he couldn't really participate in some of them.

"However, Asuma seems to have avoided Hidan and Kakuzu. You evil old man Sarutobi, you owe me another favor!"

Kitagawa Gen thought to himself, but Ino stopped too, and smiled shyly.

"I'm sorry, senior, I just couldn't control myself for a moment."

"It's okay, I think it's quite interesting."

Kitagawa Gen smiled nonchalantly, while Ino gently shook her head.

"Compared to my senior, what are these? He has already far surpassed all of us, leaving us far behind. Moreover, I've heard that he is about to become the Fifth Hokage. I..."

"Ino, it seems you've forgotten what I told you before."

Kitagawa Gen tapped the table, then shook his head, interrupting Ino.

Do you remember what flower I liked?

"Flowers."

Ino tilted her head and looked at the flowers blooming alongside the grass on the windowsill. Kitagawa Gen's voice rang out again. "Yes, just like flowers, whether you're powerful or not, whether you become Hokage or not, it makes no difference to me."

At this point, Kitagawa Gen got up and walked to the window, looking at the blooming flowers in front of him and smiled.

"Naruto, that idiot, always wanted to become Hokage, wanting to gain everyone's recognition by becoming Hokage, but I told him later."

"It's not that only those who become Hokage can gain everyone's recognition, but rather that those who gain everyone's recognition can become Hokage."

Although this statement was somewhat of a joke, it doesn't seem out of place at all to use it now.

"Me too, rather than being high above, I don't really have many other flowers and plants to keep me company, so..."

Turning his head, Kitagawa Gen looked at Ino, who had also followed him over.

"Don't say things like that again. Also, haven't I told you many times that you should just call me Yuan?"

"Is this so"

Ino looked at Kitagawa Gen, and suddenly she smiled and winked, a hint of cunning appearing in her light blue eyes.

"But I remember you also said that your favorite flowers are those that bloom on the edge of cliffs."

"what"

Kitagawa Gen paused for a moment, while Ino was already leaning against the windowsill with both hands, her golden hair fluttering in the breeze.

"Because these fearless flowers can take a step towards the sky."

Looking at the girl's smile and those light blue eyes, Kitagawa Gen suddenly realized.

Oh no, have I been tricked?
But at that moment, his gaze sharpened, and he instantly looked into the distance.
What are the Senju clan members doing?

Deep underground in Konoha, Black Zetsu's expression turned somewhat strange after receiving the shared information from White Zetsu.

"Did they see the Uchiha stone tablet and start to suspect that the Senju might have any relics left behind?"

It has to be said that Black Zetsu, as a seasoned veteran, reacted extremely quickly; in an instant, he had already guessed the general idea.

"This is great news!"

Black Zetsu was excited. He had originally been thinking about how to let Kitagawa Gen see what he had left behind.

It's wonderful that they're now actively searching for it!
"Keep digging, keep digging! If you keep pushing, you'll find it!"

Black Zetsu was extremely excited, which made White Zetsu's expression somewhat strange.

"What are you so excited about, it's black?"

"You don't understand. You just need to know that something good is going to happen."

Black Zetsu didn't bother with White Zetsu. Although White Zetsu had participated in the 'Chronicle of Time' operation, he was completely clueless about the specifics.

That would be great!
Black Zetsu didn't want others to know so much, lest he cause himself trouble.

"Keep up the good work, you'll find it soon."

Black Zetsu thought to himself, "These are relics of the Senju clan. I originally wanted to choose a stone tablet as well."

But after thinking it over, he felt that the stone tablet was so prominent that even if the Senju clan 'lost' it, they couldn't possibly have lost such a stone tablet.

So he could only choose things that were 'easily' lost, and in the end, Hashirama Senju's Wood Release gave him great inspiration!

"Although Wood Release isn't the symbol of the Senju, you've still used it, and besides, the probability of losing this thing is much higher than that of a stone tablet."

Therefore, he chose a piece of tree bark and processed it using White Zetsu's chakra and his own Yin-Yang Release abilities.

He may not have much fighting ability, but he does have other skills.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to both control Obito and have a heart-to-heart talk with Madara Uchiha.
"It's a pity. I didn't expect things to develop so quickly. Otherwise, I should have focused more on talking about Otsutsuki Hamura."

However, Black Zetsu was also somewhat annoyed, even though he had long wondered if Kitagawa Gen was from the moon.

However, the Senju tree bark was added to help him get rid of trouble, so he only added the surname and concept of Otsutsuki.

He only wrote about the past of the Thousand Hands, and nothing else, because the more he wrote, the more mistakes he would make!

"But that's enough. The rest can be placed in the Hyuga clan's relics."

Anyway, it's fake
There's no difference between writing history once and doing it countless times.

The person involved is dead, so he can't just say whatever he wants?
"Alright, let's go to the Hyuga clan. I need to think carefully about how to handle this."

After thinking it all through, Black Zetsu couldn't help but speak up, and White Zetsu couldn't help but retort.

"The Hyuga clan? Are you planning to help Orochimaru, or continue fabricating stories?"

"Shut up!"

Black Zetsu snorted coldly. He didn't like White Zetsu's tone; it annoyed him.

"What do you mean by forgery? If you keep talking nonsense, I'll teach you a lesson!"

"But it's black."

"Just remember, we're doing the right thing. You don't want Lord Madara to be unable to appear again because of our inaction, do you?"

"."

"Remember, everything we do is for Lord Madara!"

Given the current situation, Black Zetsu felt he had to bring Madara Uchiha out.

Otherwise, many things are really on the verge of collapse, but Orochimaru is needed to 'assemble Madara'.

The technique is his, and he also needs to operate on how to construct the complete state of the spots.

Even if Black Zetsu was unhappy, he could only help out. Besides, getting a suitable 'Corpse Bone Pulse' would be a help in itself.

"While it's basically useless against Otsutsuki Genshiki, it'll probably be the same against Kitagawa Genshiki."

But at least dealing with other people shouldn't be a problem, right? Even capturing a tailed beast or its chakra should be an option, right?
As Black Zetsu pondered, his figure appeared in a corner of the Hyuga clan.

He himself didn't realize that he had already been targeted the moment he showed his face.
