Invitation declined; Multiverse Mall is now open for business.

Naruto World, Konoha Village.

Hokage's office.

"Hokage-sama~"

The anxious and terrified Anbu ninjas looked on with surprise and delight as they saw Hiruzen Sarutobi reappear.

The Hokage's sudden disappearance from the Hokage's office reminded them of Danzo Shimura, and they feared that Hiruzen Sarutobi would never reappear after his disappearance.

"Bring Naruto here immediately."

Hiruzen Sarutobi's expression was solemn as he quickly issued his first order.

"Yes~"

The two ANBU ninjas accepted the order and quickly left.

"Secretly investigate which Konoha ninjas have disappeared during my absence."

Hiruzen Sarutobi issued another order.

"It's troublesome!"

As all the ANBU ninjas left, Hiruzen Sarutobi frowned deeply, a pipe dangling from his lips, his heart heavy with sorrow.

The Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze, and Kushina Uzumaki have been resurrected!

In the hearts of today's Konoha ninja, they would definitely want Minato Namikaze to be Hokage.

Whether in terms of energy or strength, Minato Namikaze is stronger than him.

Most importantly, Minato Namikaze's deterrent power is far greater than his.

Golden glitter!

This is a title that commands the awe of countless ninjas.

Because Minato Namikaze, who is proficient in the Flying Thunder God Technique, is too fast.

Almost any ninja weaker than Minato Namikaze would be instantly killed by him.

"If Minato becomes Hokage, will I have to hand over the treasures I acquired at the dimensional auction to him?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi's eyes flickered slightly.

He won several treasures at the interdimensional auction.

These treasures can easily restore him to his peak condition, or even surpass it.

"Let's have a meeting first."

After a long silence, Hiruzen Sarutobi sighed softly.

If all the noble clans of Konoha support Minato Namikaze as Hokage, and Minato Namikaze also allows him to keep the treasures auctioned at the dimensional auction, then he will abdicate and pass the position to a more worthy successor.

If they don't allow it...

"Ah~"

At this moment, Hiruzen Sarutobi felt a pang of longing for Danzo Shimura.

If Danzo Shimura were still alive, he would definitely have been at the forefront, opposing Minato Namikaze's bid to become Hokage.

In this situation, he has much more room to maneuver.

"And there's also the resurrected Uchiha Madara."

Hiruzen Sarutobi's expression held a hint of fear.

Madara Uchiha's strength actually surpassed that of the First Hokage, Hashirama Senju. Just how terrifying must Madara Uchiha's strength be now?

"And the Akatsuki organization."

"Black Zetsu."

"The Hidden Cloud Village, Hidden Sun Village, Hidden Stone Village, and Hidden Mist Village also had their treasures auctioned at the interdimensional auction."

"I wonder if the Fourth Shinobi World War will break out?"

······

For a moment, Hiruzen Sarutobi felt his head spinning, as if Mount Tai was pressing down on him.

"What? Madara Uchiha has been resurrected? And he's even stronger than before."

"The leader of Akatsuki has the Rinnegan, which is a more terrifying existence than the Mangekyou Sharingan."

"The villages of Kumogakure, Sunagakure, Iwagakure, and Kirigakure have greatly increased in strength, making it highly likely that the Fourth Shinobi World War will break out."

······

Meanwhile, within Konoha, a series of shocking news items were spreading rapidly.

This was the choice made by the Hyuga, Akimichi, Nara, and other prominent Konoha clans; they were all preparing for one thing.

"The Fourth Hokage has also been resurrected!"

While many ninjas in Konoha were filled with anxiety, another piece of exciting news spread rapidly throughout the village.

······

"Everyone, seize Uchiha Obito immediately!"

In Amegakure, at the Akatsuki headquarters, Pain, his face grim, issued his orders.

"Whether they live or die!"

"Also, immediately search for Madara Uchiha's location."

Payne was also issuing orders quickly.

"In addition, spread the word about all the treasures from the interdimensional auction, such as the vampire bloodline, the Returning Origin Technique, and the Wood Release Secret Technique."

"The news of the resurrection of Madara Uchiha, Minato Namikaze, and Kushina Uzumaki also spread quickly."

Payne knew he had to act immediately, or he would become the target of everyone's anger.

The eye of reincarnation!

No one in the five great ninja villages, or rather, in the entire ninja world, is not interested in these Rinnegan eyes.

Especially knowing that these Rinnegan eyes didn't belong to him at all, but to Uchiha Madara, made these people even less restrained.

"Only when things get chaotic, and there's complete chaos, will the Akatsuki have a chance to survive."

Payne was fully aware of how dangerous he was in.

Although he obtained a treasure at the interdimensional auction that could heal his body to some extent, there were far too many people secretly eyeing the Rinnegan.

"Madara Uchiha will definitely try to retrieve the Rinnegan."

"The five great ninja villages will definitely try to seize the Rinnegan as well."

"And Black Zetsu!"

"Uchiha Obito!"

······

Payne wasn't excited about his improved health; instead, he felt immense pressure.

·····

"Not here!"

At Madara Uchiha's grave, Madara stood with a grim face, the grave holding an indescribable weight.

Black Zetsu!

Damn Black Zetsu!

They've been manipulating him all along!

They even traded his corpse!

How could the proud and arrogant Madara Uchiha accept this?

He was now quite certain that he would soon become a laughingstock in the ninja world.

Madara Uchiha, who faked his death and escaped during the battle at the Valley of the End, has reached a new level of strength and awakened the Rinnegan, and has devised the astonishing Eye of the Moon Plan.

As a result, Madara Uchiha was completely a pawn of Black Zetsu.

The so-called Eye of the Moon Project will not bring peace to the world, but will instead resurrect an incredibly mysterious figure, Princess Kaguya Otsutsuki.

"First, we need to find a way to retrieve the Rinnegan, and then investigate Black Zetsu's confidence."

Madara Uchiha's mind was racing.

"Multiverse Mall!"

However, all the plans and schemes vanished, replaced by a name.

"The Multiverse Mall: Commerce Connects All Realms!"

Madara Uchiha murmured.

At that moment, he felt that the Naruto world was a cage.
