Naruto: Help Madara rejuvenate and launch a counterattack on Konoha

In the 50th year of Konoha's reign, Minato's team destroyed the Kannabi Bridge, cutting off a vital support base for Iwagakure and reversing Konoha's disadvantageous position in the battle against Iwagakure.

Obito Uchiha, who was only 13 years old, died in this battle.

In the same year, Uchiha Ryogoku defected after his unauthorized human experiments and research into forbidden life techniques were exposed!

……

The land of grass, the bridge of the gods.

Amidst the intertwined branches and dappled light in the dense forest, three members of the Dark Guard, wearing animal masks, moved about like ghosts.

A woman in a black outfit swept past the thick branches of an old tree, her sword flashing like a swallow chasing the wind and lightning, slicing through the stagnant air of the dense forest.

The fleeing figure ahead was dressed in black, thin, with a low-hanging hood that concealed his entire appearance; the only visible feature was the Uchiha fan-shaped crest on his back.

This person was agile and seemed to have eyes behind him, seeing the shuriken coming swiftly. He rolled a few times and dodged the shuriken.

A cold voice came from the shadows.

"Uchiha Ryou, you have been secretly researching forbidden techniques and murdering your fellow villagers. You are now a rogue ninja with a bounty on your head. Stop immediately and surrender."

Uchiha Ryou smiled dismissively, then turned and stood on a tree trunk.

The three secret agents immediately stopped, hesitant to act rashly.

Rumors circulated that Uchiha Ryou suffered from a bloodline disease and, despite living for over thirty years, remained only a Chunin. However, his ability to escape from Konoha to the Land of Grass demonstrates that the rumors were untrue.

The secret police had been pursuing him for a long time without success, all because they were wary of the trump card he was hiding.

Liao Wu suddenly sneered, "Killing fellow villagers? I killed Hiruko, who was no good. You should thank me for ridding Konoha of a great scourge."

The voice from the secret service was cold and sharp: "Stop making excuses. We don't care about Beiliuhu's background, but killing one's own people is unforgivable."

"Come back with us. The Hokage will be lenient with you because of your many years of service and outstanding achievements at Konoha Hospital."

Liao Wu spat, "Outstanding achievements? How come I'm still just a Chunin with outstanding achievements? It's just that the Konoha higher-ups can't stand the Uchiha interfering in Konoha Hospital!"

"As for the three of you, you chased me for three days and three nights. Were you so eager to take my secret of immortality back and claim credit?"

The officer in the shadows pointed at Liao Wu and shouted, "You're spouting nonsense!"

Liao Wu didn't want to waste any more words with the Dark Guards: "Hmph, enough nonsense. Now that I've resolved my physical problems and completely broken free of one shackle, you still want me to go back and put the shackles of the Will of Fire on my head?"

"ridiculous!"

As Liao Wu spoke, he began to form hand seals.

Zi-Chou-Xu-Wu-Shen...

A ninja skilled in fire-style ninjutsu narrowed his eyes, clearly recognizing Liao Wu's technique.

"Oh no! It's the Uchiha's advanced Fire Release: Great Fire Annihilation! Get out of the way!"

Upon hearing this, the other two members of the ANBU immediately used their teleportation ability to escape, while also harboring some doubts.

"Isn't the Great Fire Annihilation a B-rank ninjutsu? How could a Chunin possibly perform that?"

Generally speaking, B-rank ninjutsu is a Jonin-level ninjutsu, but some Chunin with outstanding strength and special talents can use it.

But this does not include Liaowu.

"That's right. Uchiha Ryou has suffered from a bloodline disease since childhood. He once developed a ninjutsu called Rasengan without hand seals, which alarmed Konoha. Apart from that, he has never used any of the five elemental ninjutsu."

"Oh no, I've been scammed!"

Liao Wu laughed, threw out a smoke bomb, and fled towards the other side of the mountain, leaving a long trail of smoke.

"You can't catch me because... I'm a nimble mountain dog!"

"Ha ha……"

"hateful!"

The three members of the Anbu were immediately exasperated; what a slippery Uchiha!

……

Kaminavi Bridge.

The once magnificent bridge has been reduced to a simple suspension bridge that can only accommodate two people at a time.

A thick hemp rope stretched from one end of the Grass Country to the other end of the Earth Country, swaying slightly in the valley and creaking painfully.

Liao Wu appeared at the bridgehead, looking at the now dilapidated Shinnabi Bridge with a sigh.

He didn't know what he was sighing about, but he was just sighing anyway.

The newly built suspension bridge was probably built by Kusagakure, since commercial activities between the Land of Grass and the Land of Earth still require this bridge.

The Battle of Kannabi Bridge gave birth to two heroes with Sharingan eyes. One of them is Kakashi, who has Sharingan eyes and is currently fighting on the battlefield of Kirigakure.

The other is Obito Uchiha, whose sacrifice in the Anbu has been confirmed. He is actually recuperating at Madara's base at this moment.

By now, Konoha has run out of manpower for the Third Shinobi World War, to the point that even Chunin like Obito have to go to the battlefield to take on the main responsibility.

Liao Wu, a mere Chunin, was able to defect from Konoha because Konoha's defenses were weak; the gatekeeper was just an old man.

Liao Wu searched for the person who would answer the call by the bridge.

His trip to the Kannabi Bridge in the Land of Grass wasn't just a rumor; he had already made contact with someone beforehand.

Unable to find it, Liao Wu became anxious and was about to cross the bridge, abandon the bag, and leave.

Suddenly, a cold, hoarse voice, like that of a venomous snake, entered his ears: "Liao Wu, my good classmate, where are you planning to go?!"

Liao Wu's pupils contracted sharply, his eyes filled with utter astonishment, and his body instinctively froze on the spot.

At the other end of the Shinabichi Bridge, a pale-skinned, long-haired, snake-like man looked at Liao Wu with a sinister gaze.

With his golden, sinister eyes and a chilling aura surrounding him, he was none other than Orochimaru, one of the Legendary Sannin.

After regaining his composure, Liao Wu burst into a tirade: "Orochimaru, you bastard, how dare you block my bridge! No wonder your whole family died!"

Don't hit someone's machine; don't curse someone's parents.

Even Orochimaru, with his ruthless nature, was somewhat taken aback. He chuckled coldly, "Liao Wu, your mouth is as sharp as ever!"

"But I'm not here today to argue with you. Hand over the secret to immortality, and I'll save your life!"

Liao Wu spat at Orochimaru: "Orochimaru, the reason my affairs were exposed must be because you, you bastard, snitched on me. I saw it all that day; you went to the village committee to report me late at night, all dressed up."

"Damn it, you're not clean either, I should have reported you first."

Liao Wu and Bilu Hu kept their research into forbidden techniques very secret; even the Uchiha clan members were unaware that this thick-browed, big-eyed guy, Liao Wu, was involved in such esoteric activities.

After successfully researching the forbidden technique, Liao Wu was very cautious. Even his partners kept quiet, so how could it be discovered?

Liao Wu first suspected Orochimaru, and the second was Danzo.

It's either those two scoundrels... or it's Uchiha Madara!

Without these three, the ninja world would be at least half-peaceful.

As for Obito?

A while ago, Rin even sought out Liao Wu to learn medical ninjutsu; Obito probably hasn't even started his career yet.

Orochimaru chuckled coldly, neither admitting nor denying, and formed hand seals, ready to unleash his technique at any moment.

But before performing the spell, he still wanted to recruit Liao Wu.

"Liao Wu, I can feel the surging life force within your body. Your forbidden technique has succeeded."

"You have broken the taboo against life and death, and gained immortality!"

"The teacher misjudged you, the Uchiha clan misjudged you, only I know just how much talent you've been hiding."

"Come, join me, let's pursue immortality together and explore the ultimate secrets of ninjutsu."

Liao Wu nodded without hesitation: "Okay, Orochimaru, I'll join you, but first give me some benefits, throw me a few forbidden technique scrolls."

"hehe……"

Orochimaru sneered again: "Liaowu, you agreed so readily, just like when you lied as a child."

These kinds of people are the smartest when they're in school.

Orochimaru stopped talking nonsense.

At this moment, Liao Wu has resolved his bloodline disease and regained his youth. Coupled with his medical ninjutsu and Rasengan, he can even fight against a Jonin.

But... he is Orochimaru, one of the Legendary Sannin!

"Liaowu, give me everything!"

Just as Orochimaru was about to use his teleportation to grab Liao Wu, two figures suddenly appeared beside him.

"Orochimaru, why aren't you in the village? What are you doing here, abandoning your post?"

"Orochimaru, how dare you leave the village without the old man's permission?"

A figure clad in gray ninja armor, with blond hair, a diamond-shaped mark on her forehead, and a beautiful face like a blooming peony, appeared—it was Tsunade.

Another figure, wearing a wide green robe with black patterns, was open, revealing disheveled white hair and a somewhat carefree and unrestrained air; this was Jiraiya.

The sudden appearance of Tsunade and Jiraiya caused Orochimaru to withdraw his hand, his expression turning somewhat gloomy. He hadn't expected Tsunade and Jiraiya to appear here.

They were all on the front lines.

Could it be the teacher?

The three ninjas stood together, their faces showing harmony, like tacitly understanding fellow disciples, but how much wariness lay beneath the surface was anyone's guess.

Liao Wu on the other side was clutching his head, ready to jump off the bridge. Konoha really thought too highly of him, sending the Sannin to hunt him down.

Is it really necessary to use nuclear weapons to kick a stray dog ​​to death on the street?

Are monkeys sore losers?

Liao Wu roared in exasperation, "Fine, fine, Orochimaru, Jiraiya, Tsunade, the three-person team is complete."

"The Three Legendary Sannin came to block my bridge, what can I say? Come on, whatever you want, I'll give it to you!"

Jiraiya turned to look at Ryougo on the other side of the bridge, his expression somewhat complicated.

"Liaowu, you have fallen!"

Now, Liao Wu can only hope that his contact will take a liking to his forbidden technique.

Liao Wu didn't believe that "he" would be unmoved by the forbidden art of immortality and rejuvenation.

Liao Wu slowly pulled back his hood: "Jiraiya, Tsunade, there's a battle going on at the front lines. Are you two very free?"

"Liao Wu, you!!"

Jiraiya and Tsunade's pupils constricted sharply, because of Liao Wu's expression at that moment—

It was already dusk, the setting sun was touching the mountains, and a few rays of its afterglow lazily drifted across the sky.

The person opposite him had neat black hair that fell to his shoulders, a high nose bridge, and well-defined lips; anyone who saw him would agree that he was a handsome young man.

No one would associate him with the evil Uchiha clan who conducted human experiments and dabbled in forbidden techniques.

Ke Liaowu was a middle-aged ninja, close to forty and about to reach the age of understanding, just like them.

Besides his youthful appearance, Liao Wu's most striking feature is the headband he wears.

There's a scratch there, representing a rogue ninja.

With a single slash, he severed his bond with Konoha, embarking on a path of turning against his homeland.

Orochimaru licked his lips excitedly, unable to contain his greed for the forbidden technique, Blazing Earth.

But then he paused, startled: "Liaowu, that mark on your headband, was it drawn on?"

This kind of person is so cunning that when he was a rogue ninja, the scratches were drawn on. If there were scratches, he would pretend to be a rogue ninja and blend into the ninja world. If there were no scratches, he would pretend to be a Konoha ninja and take on requests from the villagers. He can switch sides like this.

Liao Wu lowered his head: "Orochimaru, don't worry about these details. We're no longer comrades!"

Tsunade's eyes held an indescribable complexity: "Ryogoku, you've become younger, but are you still yourself?"

Liao Wu looked at Tsunade, his eyes filled with bitterness, but then his expression hardened: "Tsunade, I have never changed, it's just that you haven't seen it clearly."

"I've had kidney deficiency since I was a child. Doctors said I wouldn't live past 40, but I disagree. I believe that whether you live or die is up to you."

Jiraiya shouted angrily, "So you research forbidden techniques, harm the innocent, and devour the lives of others to achieve your own ends?"

"Ha ha……"

Liao Wu laughed loudly: "Jiraiya, Tsunade, Orochimaru, the blood on your hands is more than the menstrual blood of the entire village."

"As for harming the innocent? Hiruko and I only find scum and degenerates. Even if there are innocent people, it was Hiruko who did it."

"I, Uchiha Ryo, am pure and innocent, and I will not tolerate your slander."

Tsunade advised, "Liaowu, since, as you say, your crime is not serious, then come back to the village with me. The old man will forgive you."

"Your contributions to Konoha's medical system and the ninjas you have saved over the years are enough to wash away your crimes."

Liao Wu smiled somewhat forlornly, "There's no going back, Tsunade. After all these years, I've come to understand that no matter what I've done, as long as I'm still an Uchiha, I can never turn my life around."

"Liao Wu—"

Tsunade reached out her hand, trying to stop her.

Orochimaru sneered, "Tsunade, Ryoubu isn't some love-obsessed idiot like Jiraiya. He's been lying to you all along. Do you even know how he developed that forbidden technique?"

"..."

Tsunade lowered her head and remained silent.

Orochimaru continued, "What Ryogoku has always wanted is the medical data of your Senju clan to cure his ailment, and his forbidden technique is based on stealing your ninjutsu data and combining it with Hiruko's Oni-Garra Technique."

Tsunade looked at Liao Wu, wanting to hear his answer.

Under Tsunade's questioning gaze, Liao Wu nodded and then told Tsunade the truth.

"That's right, Tsunade. My forbidden technique is Oni-Garra: Plunder Regeneration. The principle of this forbidden technique is to plunder other people's cells to replenish one's own cells. In short, it is to plunder other people's lives."

Upon hearing this, Tsunade seemed to realize something: "Plunder and regeneration? Regeneration? Could it be the data stolen from my house?"

Liao Wu nodded: "That's right. That day I accidentally entered your house, accidentally rummaged through your bookshelf, and then accidentally left it open."

Strictly speaking, Liao Wu did not suffer from a bloodline disease, but rather from a genetic defect resulting from consanguineous marriage of his father's generation. In addition, Liao Wu had never opened his eyes.

The medical ninja attributed Liaowu's problem to bloodline disease.

Physical health issues have always been a source of anxiety for Liao Wu; he dreams of becoming healthy.

As for techniques...

The Demon Sprout Technique was developed by Liao Wu and Bi Liu Hu, but it was only the initial 1.0 version, and only one bloodline limit could be plundered.

Aside from the Hashira cells, there are few bloodline solutions that can resolve Liao Wu's physical problems.

Therefore, Liao Wu set his sights on Tsunade's forbidden technique—Creation Regeneration.

The current timeline is the Third Shinobi World War. Tsunade has not yet developed Creation Rebirth, but she is already conceiving of it in her spare time.

Liao Wu set his sights on these ninjutsu materials, stole them, and deduced Creation Regeneration. He then combined them with the Ghost Sprout Technique to develop Plunder Regeneration, and by plundering a scumbag, he solved his own bloodline disease.

Tsunade yelled, "You bastard! You stole my scrolls, fine, but why did you have to steal my underwear?"

Jiraiya chimed in, "Ryogoku, you're so selfish! You stole it and didn't even share it with your good brother?"

"Get out of here!"

Tsunade unleashed a powerful attack on Jiraiya, sending him flying far away.

Orochimaru took a few steps back, keeping his distance from these lunatics. After all these years, he still felt that Sarutobi-sensei should have chosen Ryougo instead of him.

Jiraiya, Tsunade, and Ryougo together are more like fellow disciples.

Liao Wu pulled up his hood to save face, and once he did, he stopped acting altogether.

"Tsunade, I like you so much, but you know my body, I don't dare to eat it even after I stole it back."

"A doctor cannot heal himself, and one cannot help others but cannot help oneself. I desperately want a healthy body."

Jiraiya rushed back and said sternly, "Ryogoku, is this your reason for falling into depravity?"

Liao Wu shook his head and revealed the truth: "Jiraiya, I have never fallen. This is my true self. I wanted a healthy body, but that was just a means to an end. My real goal is to become stronger!"

"I absolutely love ninjutsu!"

"We were classmates, but now you're among the Legendary Sannin, achieving great success, while what about me?"

"You know what? Jiraiya, when you guys returned to the village in triumph from the battlefield, I really wanted to join you."

"If I said I was in the same generation as the Sannin, Obito would laugh at me."

"Don't underestimate the poor youth, don't underestimate the poor middle-aged, and don't underestimate the poor old. I don't want to die only to be looked down upon by grave robbers for having a poor tomb!"

"..."

Jiraiya and Tsunade remained silent.

Orochimaru stood with his arms crossed, saying nothing.

Liao Wu was a genius in Orochimaru's eyes, whether it was his ingenious ideas in school in his early years or the Rasengan he developed later.

But fate is jealous of talent; beneath his extraordinary genius lay a frail and weak body.

Liao Wu sighed, "Actually, becoming a Chunin isn't so bad. Being an outcast is fine. There are still many civilians in the Uchiha clan, and besides, I'm a medical ninja, so I'm respected."

"The one I truly care about is you—Tsunade!"

Liao Wu pointed at Tsunade, his fingertips filled with too much regret.

"I?!"

Gang pointed to himself.

Liao Wu nodded: "That's right, Tsunade. As long as I still have the surname Uchiha, it's impossible for us to be together."

"Actually, it wasn't that I broke my promise and couldn't make it that day; it was that the higher-ups suddenly forced me to go to the front lines and warned me not to tell anyone."

"Neither the Senju clan nor your teacher wants to see the blood of this Uchiha sinner tainted with the noble princess of Konoha."

Tsunade shouted in disbelief, "Impossible! My teacher and my clan would never interfere in my own affairs!"

Liao Wu replied, "Actually, you don't need to blame them. Given the Uchiha's current status in the village, who knows if I approached you on the clan's orders to improve the Uchiha's political standing?"

Tsunade shook her head: "No, you're not that kind of person."

Liao Wu couldn't help but reveal the truth: "Actually, I did accept the clan's mission. The clan gave me a large sum of money, saying that if I married you, I would become the captain of the police force."

"The clan will also try to help me solve my physical problems and help me open my eyes."

"They offered so much, I didn't refuse!"

"Liao Wu—"

Tsunade was furious, unsure whether Liao Wu was lying or telling the truth; he had already told far too many lies.

Liao Wu waved his hand: "Alright, alright, Tsunade, don't be angry. My biggest regret about you is that I didn't stop Nawaki from going to the front line that day."

"He's the grandson of the First Generation, and too many people want him dead."

"Rope Tree..."

Tsunade was so hurt by what she heard that she dug her nails into her hands.

Liao Wu continued to express his feelings: "I am sorry about the rope tree incident, but I will stand up again for what I have broken."

Tsunade asked in confusion, "Severance? What happened to Severance? Did you kill him?"

Liao Wu shook his head and said, "I don't have that much ability yet, but I'm also afraid that pretty boy will steal you away. So every time he comes to the hospital, I'm the one who treats him. I secretly prescribe some erectile dysfunction drugs for him and treat him with all sorts of random things."

At the time, Kato Dan was pursuing Tsunade. Ryogoku couldn't be with Tsunade for political reasons, but he was selfish and couldn't stand seeing others with Tsunade.

Duan often suffered from headaches due to practicing spiritual transformation techniques, and no matter what treatment he tried, he couldn't get better. So Liao Wu used the thinking of an old Chinese medicine doctor from his previous life to give him strong medicine.

They put all sorts of things into it, including Wulingzhi (dried flying squirrel feces), live tadpoles, and human urine sediment.

Believe it or not, the headache was cured, but the person also died.

Of course, it wasn't Liao Wuqian who was responsible; it was Dan who knew his own life was short. He was a Jonin who happened to be caught in World War II. Without a family or a powerful backer, Dan, who possessed the forbidden technique of Spirit Transformation, was naturally going to be controlled by the higher-ups.

Finally, during a mission, his teammates failed to keep an eye on him and he was ambushed and killed.

Being a ninja is a high-risk profession. It's not a tragedy that Liao Wu, as a ninja, didn't live past 40, because many people were sent to the front lines to fill the gaps right after graduating from ninja school.

As you can imagine, they even had to find an old man with slightly failing eyesight to guard the gate.

When Liao Wu defected, he ran towards the main gate in the middle of the day. As he passed through the gate, he handed the old man a pack of cigarettes, and the old man smiled and said that he didn't even need to register.

However, getting back to the main point, because Tsunade did not suffer the tragedy of Dan's death, she naturally did not experience the secondary trauma of Dan's death, and therefore did not develop hemophobia or the idea of ​​leaving home.

With Tsunade, a medical genius, on the side of Konoha during the Third Shinobi World War, the village had even more confidence in fighting.

In some ways, it was a good thing that Dan didn't end up with Tsunade.

Liao Wu heard the sound of wind behind him and guessed that the Dark Guard had caught up with them.

He appealed to emotions, saying, "Tsunade, Jiraiya, Orochimaru, please let me back out for the sake of our past friendship!"

"If I can't get out of here this time, I'm really dead!"

Neither Tsunade nor Jiraiya spoke, and Orochimaru stepped forward, blocking the bridge entrance.

Jiraiya followed closely behind, and Tsunade also became determined.

Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha were very close friends, but for the sake of Konoha, Hashirama betrayed Madara.

The village is my stance, my fellow villagers are my bottom line, and anyone who harms my fellow villagers is an enemy.

Liao Wu pulled down his hood and shouted at the three legendary ninja, "Am I the only one in Konoha who uses forbidden techniques? Why are you all always chasing after your old classmate?"

woohoo-

As the wind whistled, three figures appeared not far behind Liao Wu; they were the Konoha Anbu who had been chasing Liao Wu earlier.

The three ANBU were somewhat disappointed to see the three Sannin on the other side of the bridge. Since the Sannin had all come over, they couldn't keep the immense credit for retrieving the forbidden technique of immortality to themselves.

But they were also somewhat relieved, because Uchiha Ryou was slippery and slippery; if he had escaped, the three of them would have been in serious trouble.

When the old men and women of Konoha heard about Liao Wu's forbidden technique of rejuvenating, their eyes almost popped out of their sockets; they were so envious!

Not only the Hidden Leaf Village's Anbu, but also the sound of wind echoing through the forest.

A group of black-haired ninjas dressed in black outfits and wearing red and white fans stood atop a tree. The newcomers were none other than the famous Uchiha clan of Konoha.

The leader had a square face and a serious expression, giving off a calm and dignified feeling. He was the captain of the Uchiha clan's police force—Uchiha Fugaku.

Following the Uchiha clan, a group of masked ANBU ninjas appeared. Unlike the animal masks worn by the ANBU, these masks were primarily pure black and dark gray.

It is the training department of the Dark Guard, but in reality it is an independent secret force controlled by Danzo—Root.

Upon seeing this group of Root ninjas, the Uchiha clan showed no fear whatsoever; instead, they displayed a degree of provocation. As they raised their eyes, the crimson tomoe in their pupils suddenly swirled.

The ninjas of Root were staring at the ninjas as if they were prey.

There was still the sound of wind in the dense forest, but it wasn't as loud as the Uchiha clan's Root members. They were probably just some cowards who coveted the forbidden technique of immortality but were afraid of being targeted by the Root.

Liao Wu underestimated the allure of immortality for them.

What are the rich and powerful most afraid of?

Die!
