Naruto: Help Madara rejuvenate and launch a counterattack on Konoha

"Yo~ This ramen is so flavorful! The broth is rich and chewy, and the garlic and chili oil is so satisfying, Yeah~"

Killer Bee ate the tonkotsu ramen with a hearty appetite. This kind of ramen is heavy on garlic, oil, and spice, making it perfect for the strong-flavored Cloud Village ninja.

One bite and your mouth is filled with the aroma of bone and garlic.

Yugito was full after eating one bowl. She watched speechlessly as Killer Bee rapped while eating ramen like a starving ghost.

This is truly a disgrace to Kumogakure.

Yugito ignored Killer Bee and thanked Kushina, saying, "Kushina, thank you for your hospitality."

Kushina smiled and waved her hand, "No need, it's not a big deal. Can we be friends from now on?"

Kushina looked at Yugito and Killer Bee with great hope.

Yukito nodded: "Of course, we are the same kind!"

Killer Bee nodded and rapped, "Kushina, you're our friend now, yay~"

"Hey friend, yay!"

Kushina happily imitated Killer Bee's "Oya!"

Kushina was always lonely.

She was brought to Konoha as a potential Jinchuriki when she was young, and was bullied by the people at the Ninja Academy because she was from another village.

Fortunately, Kushina had members of the Senju clan, such as Mito, Tsunade, and Nawaki, who took her in.

Later, she met her soulmate, Minato, but Kushina's loneliness did not lessen; instead, it increased.

Because she was the Nine-Tails' jinchūriki, Kushina's range of movement was very limited as she had to rely on a sealing barrier to suppress the Nine-Tails.

At that time, Minato was a Jonin who was at the height of his fame, and many little devils were eyeing him.

Kushina desperately wanted to break free of the barrier, drive away the little fairy around Minato, and become a normal couple with him.

Kushina's worries were only alleviated after she confirmed her relationship with Minato.

But ultimately, it is an anomaly that sealed the Nine-Tails.

She was always afraid that her identity as the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki would be exposed, and that she would be hated by those around her.

After Kushina's identity as a Jinchuriki was revealed, although no one was hostile towards her, Kushina could vaguely sense some gazes that dared not look her in the eye.

For example, when buying vegetables, the older women selling vegetables used to try to bargain with her.

Now even older women are afraid to take her money, for fear that Kushina will turn into a nine-tailed fox and try to bargain her down.

When Kushina passed by the village entrance, she simply stood there, and the intelligence bureau formed by the village aunties was immediately paralyzed.

This is a conflict, a silent conflict, a bizarre conflict.

In everyone's subconscious, the Jinchuriki is the embodiment of the Tailed Beast, and one day they will transform into an evil Tailed Beast.

Kushina's neighbors all secretly moved away.

Everyone was afraid that Kushina would transform into a nine-tailed fox and wreak havoc.

Kushina shared some of her troubles.

Killer Bee and Yugito could only tell her to endure it, and that one day everyone would understand her.

"Someday"—but what day is that?

Kushina scratched her head, looking troubled.

Yugito said understandingly, "That depends on your own efforts. I was also rejected by my companions at first."

"Later, I gained the understanding of the troops, gradually grew stronger, went to the battlefield, protected my comrades, and earned everyone's recognition."

Kushina exclaimed in realization, "So it's about playing your part!"

Killer Bee nodded: "~To gain recognition, you need to help others, which requires utilizing the power of a Jinchūriki~"

Kushina asked again, puzzled, "Then how do we unleash the power of a Jinchuriki? Your Kumogakure is at the forefront of the ninja world in the research and development of Tailed Beasts, but we in Konoha dare not control the power of the Nine-Tails."

"The Nine-Tails' power is too strong!"

Yugito and Killer Bee exchanged a glance; the Cloud Village had already begun the procedures for controlling the Tailed Beasts.

On Turtle Island in Kumogakure, enter the Fall of Truth and defeat the darkness within; then, break part of the seal to enter the consciousness space and confront the Tailed Beasts, seeking reconciliation...

But this is experience that Cloud Village has gained through many years of exploration and at a great cost.

Can I tell Kushina?

Kushina seemed to realize she had said the wrong thing: "I apologize, you two, I was being presumptuous."

The method by which the Hidden Cloud Village controls the Tailed Beasts is an absolute secret, and for Kushina to ask about such a secret is to touch a raw nerve.

Yugito also said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Kushina, this is a village secret. We need to ask the Raikage before we can tell you."

Killer Bee rapped, "Don't worry, Kushina, the five great nations must unite to defeat Madara Uchiha. We'll help you become stronger!"

Kushina immediately refused: "No, I don't want your method of controlling the tailed beasts, and I can't go out to fight right now."

"Because... I'm already pregnant!"

"What?!"

Kirabi and Yukito were both shocked.

Kakashi was bored outside, so he unconsciously took out the little yellow book from his ninja tool bag.

Rin and Obito came over and confronted them.

Obito yelled at Kakashi, "Kakashi, the boss is inside! How dare you openly read pornographic books like that?"

Since everyone already knows that Kakashi reads pornographic books, he simply stopped acting it out.

"I'm not young anymore. I could be a father in the Warring States period. What's wrong with reading adult books?"

Rin tried to snatch Kakashi's yellow book, but Kakashi nimbly dodged it.

Kakashi said to Rin, "Rin, if you want to see it, go buy it yourself!"

"Kakashi, you—"

Lin got angry, stomped her foot hard, and then ran away angrily.

"Lin—Lin—"

Obito chased after Rin, and Kakashi suddenly felt much more at peace.

He knew that Rin liked him, but he didn't like Rin, while Obito liked Rin.

Therefore, he could only taint himself, creating an opportunity for Obito.

In the end, he had to bear it all alone!

Kakashi blushed more and more as he looked at it; he still liked the flirtatious ones!

……

How should we reward Zhishui?

Xiaochun and Yan were a bit of a headache. If it were an ordinary Konoha ninja, a combination of Fire Will punches would make him dare not mention any reward anymore.

How can personal interests be considered when sacrificing for the village? How can personal feelings be mixed with sacrifices for the country and for the greater good?

Do you have no sense of the bigger picture? Do you have no awareness of contributing to the collective?

But the Uchiha clan seemed to have learned their lesson; after hearing that the price of gold had gone up, they took two rolls of toilet paper from under the bed and went there.

They stopped talking about the Will of Fire and started talking about personal interests and gains. What does this have to do with the mercenaries hired from outside?

Shisui walked to the door of the ward and looked at his clansmen with empty eyes: "Everyone, I am a member of the Uchiha clan, and an excellent ninja who has entered the Anbu."

"Now is the time for the village to concentrate all its forces on dealing with Uchiha Madara. How can I threaten the village for my own personal gain?"

"Besides, this credit doesn't belong to me alone; Jiraiya-sama and Minato-sama both got involved."

"Without their help, I wouldn't have been able to find out that information."

"Still water?!"

The Uchiha clan members stared in shock at Shisui's empty eyes.

In their minds, Shisui's eyes were the three-tomoe Sharingan of the Uchiha clan, and with these Sharingan, he possessed genjutsu that could manipulate everything.

He was the first genjutsu master of the Uchiha clan.

But now, his eye sockets are empty, and Shisui can no longer see anything.

Jiraiya and his apprentice Minato walked to Shisui's side, looking at the sensible Shisui with great satisfaction.

If Shisui was so sensible, then Jiraiya couldn't possibly be completely oblivious.

"Everyone, I've made my decision. I will accept Shisui as my disciple."

"What?!"

Everyone was shocked, including Shisui.
