Naruto: Help Madara rejuvenate and launch a counterattack on Konoha

Summoned by the spore clones, the Ancient Tree of Takigakure in Amegakure was summoned into the Box of Elysium, taking over this dark world.

next moment.

The negative energy in the Enlightenment Space began to converge on the Ancient Tree of Takigakure, which represents life, and the negative energy was hostile to life.

They wanted to drag the ancient tree of Takigakure into despair.

As soon as the Takigakure Ancient Tree entered the Box of Bliss, it extended its roots and took root in the Space of Enlightenment. Then, it accepted everything that came and frantically absorbed and devoured all the energy in the Space of Enlightenment.

As the ancient tree of Takigakure absorbed the light, the surrounding despairing darkness began to fade, as if the darkness had receded and the world was welcoming light.

As it absorbed a massive amount of negative energy, the Ancient Tree of Takigakure began to rise steadily, climbing from its original height.

211 meters, 220 meters, 230 meters... and finally reached a height of 300 meters.

It stands like a colossal pillar reaching to the heavens, its branches strong and thick, twisting and turning, piercing the sky above the space of enlightenment.

The leaves were no longer dark and inky, but a deep green that was almost black, layer upon layer, dense and impenetrable.

The tree canopy was gloomy and oppressive, like a solidified dark night. Gazing at it, one felt as if their mind was being slowly pulled away, as if they were about to be completely swallowed by the unfathomable darkness.

This is the result of absorbing negative energy from the Space of Enlightenment.

Because the Ancient Tree of Takigakure absorbed all the negative energy in the Box of Bliss, the Space of Enlightenment became clear, and some of the Hozuki Castle prisoners who had been captured and put into the Box of Bliss returned to normal.

When they woke up, they looked around in bewilderment, having no idea what had just happened.

The ancient tree of Takigakure in the Space of Enlightenment attracted everyone's attention. Everyone stared in shock at this giant tree that seemed to reach the sky, like a thick, impenetrable dark cloud.

It seemed like a terrifying life form.

Suddenly, the ancient tree of Takigakure began to behave strangely, and all the humans shrouded in its shadow seemed to hear the whispers of an ancient god.

I am Ayaka Kamisato's dog, I am Ayaka Kamisato's dog...

Suddenly, all the prisoners in the shadows went mad, no longer standing straight and upright, but bending over and turning into dogs.

They've all been brainwashed by Takigakure Koju.

After taking control of the Space of Enlightenment, the Takigakure Ancient Tree is now essentially the control center of the Box of Bliss, possessing the ability to turn people into puppets.

Liao Wu severed ties with his spore clone and said to the people around him, "Alright, the problem with the Box of Bliss has been solved. Now it's time to address the issue of enlightenment."

……

Rain-Hidden Village.

Yakushi Nonou stealthily made her way to the administrative office of the Amegakure Central Building, where Tsunade conducted official business.

Nono knocked on the door and entered.

"Please come in!"

Nonou walked in carrying a pastry: "Lady Tsunade, this is a pastry I made especially for you!"

Tsunade nodded: "Just put it there!"

"good!"

Nonou slowly walked towards Tsunade, intending to place the pastries she was carrying on Tsunade's desk.

But just as she was about to get close to Tsunade, she suddenly erupted, and a layer of light blue chakra appeared on her hand, forming the shape of a blade.

This is a chakra scalpel, a ninjutsu used by medical ninjas to cut flesh.

The core principle is to precisely control chakra in the palm of the hand, forming a thin blade-shaped energy body that can cut inside the target's body without external injury, and can be extended at will.

This type of ninjutsu attack does not involve physical destruction, but rather directly targets the nervous system inside the body, precisely destroying specific tissues without causing open wounds.

This is a ninjutsu that ignores external defenses.

Nonou's chakra scalpel was aimed at Tsunade's head; if she touched Tsunade's nervous system, it would be damaged.

Even if a celestial being were to come, they wouldn't be able to save her then.

Despite the danger of the ninjutsu, Tsunade did not show the panic one might expect. Instead, she calmly continued to handle her official duties.

There is an old saying: "A man who has thunder in his heart but a calm face is worthy of being a general!"

This perfectly describes someone like Tsunade.

"How dare you!"

Just then, a loud shout came from outside the door, and a ball of golden sand flew out from behind Nono, binding her movements.

Immediately afterwards, Lai Cai appeared from outside the door with a group of ninja cats.

Standing next to Lai Cai was the Luo Sha puppet. It was Lai Cai who had just used the human puppet he had stolen from Scorpion to activate the Sand Gold Secret Technique and stop Nono's assassination attempt.

Lai Cai was furious and said angrily to Nono, "Candy reminded me that you had a problem, but I didn't believe it. I didn't expect that you were really a spy sent by the enemy."

"Come here, cat! Chop it up and throw it out to feed the dogs."

Candy had many things to do, so the task of monitoring Nonou was left to the other ninja cats.

Nonou's actions were constantly being monitored by the ninja cats. As soon as she entered the Amegakure Building, Raizai and his puppet Rasa were already lurking outside.

Ninja Cat didn't even want to continue the interrogation; he just wanted to drag Nonou away, chop her up, and feed her to the dogs.

"Wait!"

Tsunade called out to Laicai, lecturing it: "Why do you act so recklessly, just like your master? Now that you've caught the spy, you should try to pry open her secrets and find out who's behind it all."

Lai Cai nodded: "Big Sister is right. We should drag this traitor down and beat her, interrogate her whole family, and then throw them all into the river."

"Hey (▔,▔)ㄏ."

Tsunade shook her head speechlessly, walked over, and looked at Nono.

Nonou's round-framed glasses reminded Tsunade of someone, someone she had once worked with at Konoha Hospital.

She wiped off Nono's foundation and immediately recognized her: "You're Nono?!"

Nonou nodded, her face showing no panic of someone caught a spy, but rather an innate calm: "Lady Tsunade, it's been a long time!"

Tsunade was utterly confused: "Why? Nonou? Why are you here?"

Nono stuck out her tongue, and Tsunade saw the horizontal curse mark on it. Her pupils contracted, and she immediately knew everything.

"You're a member of Root, a spy for Danzo!"

Nono didn't speak. After being marked with the "Tongue Twister Seal," the seal would activate automatically if she revealed any information related to Konoha or Danzo's secrets.

He was completely paralyzed, unable to speak or move.

"So it was you—Nonou, you killed Nagayama Minoru."

Tsunade finally understood how Minoru Nagayama, the former vice-director of Konoha Hospital, died. He didn't commit suicide; instead, he was disposed of by Nono.

Just as Tsunade was about to uncover the financial loopholes in Konoha Hospital, Nonou received Danzo's order to eliminate Minoru Nagayama.

This proves that Konoha's financial deficit is inextricably linked to Danzo and Orochimaru.

Nonou did not answer any of Tsunade's questions and remained silent, seemingly having already surrendered.

Tsunade looked at her and said, "Your chakra scalpel technique just now was very skillful; only a Jonin-level medical ninja can master it."

"You are a high-level medical ninja. Danzo must have had nothing better to do than send you to Amegakure to gather intelligence."
