He was in Konoha, and his domineering aura was overflowing.

Oh, by then they couldn't watch it anymore.

"Speaking of which bastard said he could use long-range ninjutsu against him?" The head of the Inuzuka family still remembers the person who said that.

"With that kind of scale, the striking range must be measured in kilometers. What kind of ninjutsu could reach that? Throw a shuriken from 800 miles away?"

"You can't even break through his defenses, okay? You saw his healing ninjutsu, right? In just a short while, you can't even see a scratch on the surface. He was healed in no time after you hit him with your foot."

"Let me do the math. In close combat, there's 'Triple Rebirth' to dodge attacks, 'Wind Passes Without a Trace' to detect movements, multiplying explosive tags, Ultra Bombs... In long range, I can throw these ninjutsu out. With reconnaissance ninjutsu, there's basically no chance of missing."

"I've also occasionally heard about his physical skills; they're exceptionally strong."

"And that Conqueror's Haki that targets the mind, and Armored Haki whose hardening effect is even stronger than that of an earth spear..."

As the method of counting fifty strings was employed, the excitement on the face of the Inuzuka family head gradually turned into solemnity.

Something's not right.

Something is very wrong.

"Who researched this thing? Its combat power is off!"

Nara Shikaku put down his sake cup, his eyes narrowed slightly, and said in a deep voice, "Isogen-kun's strength is undoubtedly at the level of a Kage, but he is different from ordinary Kage. He... has no weaknesses!"

Melee, ranged, recovery, martial arts, physical fitness.

The five strings had been displayed one by one over the past few years, and now that they were all together, these Jonin at the top of Konoha's power structure were astonished to find it.

Are there some oddities with these panel values?

Is this really a number that humans can possess?

"...The First Hokage and Madara Uchiha only showed their true strength after they grew up."

Someone said that, and the atmosphere in the room seemed to freeze.

Nara's gaze was deep and unfathomable. As the current Hokage's assistant, he had personally witnessed Isogen rise from a tiny eight-year-old child to a height they couldn't comprehend, moving at the speed of a cannonball in Kumogakure.

"We are witnessing the birth of a new legend."

The fishy smell

The ninja clan's long history must have its own set of reasons.

Logically, when encountering a genius, the ninja clan would provide corresponding resources after confirming their talent, thus binding them to the clan and gaining their assistance as they grow.

This procedure has never gone wrong before; even if it has, it has only been due to individual misjudgments and poor judgment of people.

But Isogen's growth rate was too strange, as strange as Uchiha Madara crawling out of his grave, pulling out the body of the First Hokage, and shouting at Uzumaki Mito from afar, "You third party."

Investment? A favor?

That depends on having the opportunity.

If this path is blocked, then there's only another one left.

A marriage alliance!

A powerful alliance creates synergy.

It's not uncommon for people of this age to get married, and many are also engaged.

But they all knew that Isogen was often accompanied by two peers, Hyuga Mizuki and Uzumaki Kushina.

Most importantly, the other party is an orphan, and the only person who can be considered an elder is Mito Uzumaki, whom he became familiar with later because of Kushina.

To act as a matchmaker for Lady Mito?

People can distinguish between good and evil.

"Haha, my son has finally done something decent. He knows how to build a good relationship with Isogen-kun without me having to urge him." The Inuzuka family head laughed heartily.

As soon as the laughter rang out, the fog surrounding the people of Huizhou suddenly dissipated, and everything became clear.

Yes!

Even if investing now is too late, how can the presence of such dirty-hearted adults compare to the interaction between young people and their parents?

They've all come from this age group, and they know all too well that friendships at this age are stronger than gold.

All that effort and trouble might not even be as effective as your own child calling you "Big Brother".

Moreover, Wu Xian is also very good to their children, occasionally helping them loosen up their muscles and bones, and increasing their resistance to blows.

They would also frequently guide them in their spiritual practice.

With the ability to directly suppress Sakumo Hatake with a fifty-stringed bow, not to mention children, even parents like them could give pointers.

Thinking this, the Akimichi clan's Jonin swallowed a piece of beef and muttered, "These brats are really something. They're just trying to get what they want."

He nodded firmly after speaking.

Okay, it's decided. When we get back, I'll urge my child to study hard with Wu Shixian-kun. If he dares to be lazy, I'll use corporal punishment!

……

At that moment, the ninja academy students, who were gathered together excitedly discussing the earth-shattering explosion, all shuddered involuntarily.

"Woo!" The ninja dog let out a dangerous growl.

Inuzuka Satoru asked worriedly, "What's wrong with you, Maru?"

The Thousand Hands Old House.

The spacious courtyard is full of life. The lush green lawn is well-maintained, and the brightly colored flowers emit an enticing fragrance. The perfectly trimmed potted plants are placed in order.

In the newly carved-out pond, several creatures resembling lizards swam happily, wagging their tails. Yakushi Nono stood on the stone-paved bank, holding a ball of fish food in her hands.

"Whoosh." Mizuto Uzumaki held a watering can in his hand, his breath gentle as he watered the potted plants.

Whirlwind Bell, looking slightly reserved, covered her still-flat stomach and stayed by her side.

On the surface of this peaceful and tranquil world, within the sealed space, the Nine-Tailed Fox, still bound like a rice dumpling, looked resentful.

"Hey old hag, you can all launch 'Tailed Beast Balls' yourselves, why are you still trapping me?"

"The outside world is so chaotic, why don't you go and do something about it?"

"That bastard Hashirama Senju is gone. Do you guys in Konoha have someone this capable? Why don't you release him for me?"

The nine-tailed fox transformed into a typewriter, chattering incessantly, uttering the most calm and composed words it had spoken since being captured.

The fox was dumbfounded.

God knows what it felt like when it saw that emblem in the sealed space and the sky exploded.

No, you Konoha people can set off firecrackers yourselves, yet you're trapping me?

It was certain that it was not its sibling.

The chakra aura belongs to that brat named Fifty Strings.

That's terrifying.

It didn't have any particular feelings about the fifty strings; it simply thought the kid was good-looking and did things that suited its taste.

Every time it hears the topic of Isogen stirring up trouble in Konoha, it grins its big teeth and laughs with extra joy.

It has also witnessed the power of fifty strings.

It's incredibly powerful; one has to admit that even if it wanted to kill Gyugen, it would be virtually impossible.

Ninjas who reach the threshold of Kage are almost all capable of fighting against Tailed Beasts. They may not be able to defeat the Tailed Beasts, but the Tailed Beasts are also not very effective against their high mobility.

If it's not a life-or-death struggle, paying some price to withdraw isn't difficult.

It thought that level was already amazing enough. It had never seen the two bastards in their younger forms, but it knew that even the two sons of the Sage of Six Paths could not have been more outstanding at the age of fifty.

Who would have thought that in such a short time, the fifty-stringed instrument could produce such a masterpiece?

The immense energy that dispelled the clouds in Konoha's sky—a power that even tailed beasts need time to accumulate chakra for—was accomplished by a human child.

This outstanding talent immediately activated its PTSD.

He thought that once Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha were gone, and Mito Uzumaki, the only human in Konoha who could easily suppress him, went to see the Sage of Six Paths, he would be free.

The fifty strings were struck like a thunderbolt, leaving its head buzzing.

If I remember correctly, in terms of human age, Fifty Strings is extremely young, which is the most important and also the most suffocating point for tailed beasts.

Isogen's research into sealing techniques dates back to his childhood, so sealing tailed beasts is no problem for him.

Chapter 102 I Want Them All

"Grandma, Grandma~! We're back!"

"Grandma, did you see what happened just now?"

"Amazing!"

The bright red cherry tomatoes stretched out their arms and made a huge circle, their eyes shining.

Dah.

The bottom of the watering can is placed on a ceramic tile.

Mito Uzumaki smiled and took out a towel to wipe the fine sweat that had appeared on Kushina's face as she jumped and ran.

She was not surprised at all by the huge commotion that had recently shaken the leaves, stirred the ground, and scattered the white clouds, after all, it was the home turf of the Fifteen Strings.

She had often heard Isogen talking about the heads of various ninja clans before.

Based on her understanding of the 50 strings, this nagging definitely doesn't mean they have a good relationship.

Participants in this graduation examination: Yugoshiki and Sakumo Hatake.

Both are top-tier players in Konoha.

The ninja clan, curious about Ijūgen's actual strength, would certainly not let go of this rare opportunity.

In the past, they had tried to understand the fifty strings, but never had the chance.

Igarashi's targeting of Danzo is obvious to all; every time the Root base explodes, it's a shock. Coupled with his past achievements, everyone knows Igarashi is strong, but no one knows exactly how strong he is except himself.

Why doesn't anyone take the initiative to step forward under the guise of seniors testing juniors?

Of course, there are concerns.

After all, Gojūgen's actions against Danzo were characterized by a wildness and a mysterious spiritual issue. If Gojūgen had a sudden realization during the competition, he would be the one to suffer.

Let the clan's ninjas take over?

To be able to go toe-to-toe with Isogen, one must be at least a Jonin. Ninja clans all have private armies to some extent, but Jonin are all highly capable, and losing even one of them is painful.

The Hidden Leaf Village is large and powerful, but it only has about a hundred Jonin on the surface. If you include the Jonin clan members, the total number of Jonin combatants should reach four or five hundred.

Such precious knowledge, just to figure out a genius?

It's not that extravagant.

Besides, instead of exhausting yourself, why not hope that others will take the initiative? What if someone has the spirit to dedicate themselves to others?

So it dragged on and on until now.

The results are in, and they're quite shocking, with a strong aftereffect; we need to calm down a bit.

Uzumaki Rinne's reaction was much calmer than that of the Konoha Jonin.

Having witnessed Isogen's targeted explosion in Kusagakure Village, the internal explosion that was even more chilling than direct death, this time the massive commotion of the main energy attacking the sky made her realize how powerful Isogen was.

Pharmacist Nonou felt more worried than happy.

"Will you be alright after making such a big fuss?"

Having experienced the darkness beneath the towering tree of Konoha, she knew the darkness hidden beneath this ninja village that proclaimed the Will of Fire.

If Igarashi is a 'talent' who has comprehended the Will of Fire, then the Hokage lineage will definitely do everything in its power to protect him.
