Naruto: Help Madara rejuvenate and launch a counterattack on Konoha

On their way to the Land of Rain, Tsunade and the others were escorted by White Zetsu clones.

At this moment, Tsunade is treating the injuries of Uzumaki Kyuuhan.

She had no chakra, so she borrowed it from Yuwan. Yuwan lent Tsunade chakra, and Tsunade was able to perform medical ninjutsu.

Tsunade examined Jiupin's physical condition and found that her body was severely depleted, with only the physical constitution of a normal person.

It should be noted that the physique of the Uzumaki clan far surpasses that of ordinary people; the threshold for a normal person is only enough to maintain a fetus within a ninth-grade body.

The fried rice ate all the fish balls I had, so I made a pot of fish soup that's good for pregnant women and served it to them.

Tsunade took the fish soup from the fried rice bowl and patted its head: "Fried Rice, thank you."

Egg Fried Rice smiled and said, "It's my honor to be able to help Lady Tsunade!"

Tsunade smiled and then personally served Jiupin the soup.

"Come to the ninth rank."

After drinking, Jiu Pin thanked Tsunade, saying, "Thank you, Lady Tsunade!"

Tsunade stroked Kyuubi's hair; a few strands of white hair were visible beneath her vibrant red hair, which made Tsunade feel extremely distressed.

Even those of the Whirlpool Clan rarely have white hair after the age of 50.

"I'm sorry I couldn't stop the destruction of the Land of Whirlpools."

When the Land of Whirlpools was besieged by multiple countries, Konoha sent reinforcements.

However, the Land of Whirlpools was wiped out too quickly, and Konoha's main reinforcements were destroyed before they even arrived. The Senju clan only managed to bring back Kushina.

Ultimately, it can only be blamed on the fact that the sealing techniques of the Uzumaki clan were too terrifying, and that they had no power to protect themselves.

The Uzumaki clan has not yet realized that the world of ninja clans has passed, and the era of ninja villages has become the mainstream.

Ninja clans can only gain protection by joining ninja villages, making them highly sought-after members in the eyes of outsiders.

But that's not necessarily true. Maybe it's easier to kill them if they're grouped together, just like the Hidden Mist Village.

Ultimately, it was due to the strong backlash following Hashirama Senju's death, and the lack of successors in the Uzumaki clan after Ashina Uzumaki's passing.

If Hashirama Senju and Ashina Uzumaki were still alive, who would dare to touch the Land of Whirlpools?

Thousand-Handed Buddha Warning! Corpse Demon Sealing Warning!

Kyuubi shook his head at Tsunade, saying with great understanding, "Konoha has done its best. The destruction of a nation is the norm in the ninja world, and the Uzumaki clan is not special."

Tsunade remained silent, returning to the most fundamental question: the curse on the ninja world that Jiraiya had pursued for half his life.

The Whirlpool Clan intimidates other nations with its powerful sealing techniques. But when it weakens, wolves will naturally rush up to devour its flesh and blood.

Konoha once relied on Hashirama Senju's power to maintain the balance of the ninja world. When Hashirama Senju passed away, this balance quickly collapsed, and the First Shinobi World War broke out.

Conflict, war, and hatred are forever lingering shadows in people's hearts.

Then Tsunade cautiously asked, "Ninth Rank, where is your husband?"

Jiupin remained silent, his head bowed, lost in sorrow.

Hagi Chiho, who was next to her, answered for her: "Kyu-han's husband was just an ordinary person who was caught up in the war and killed when Iwagakure invaded the Land of Grass."

"well……"

Tsunade sighed, then glanced at Hagi Chiho.

This Kusagakure seems to be different from the group of Kusagakure who sided with Uchiha Madara.

"Is it you who takes care of the Ninth Rank official?!"

Jiupin nodded, speaking up for Hagi Chiho: "It's all thanks to Lady Hagi Chiho for taking care of me, otherwise—"

Jiupin didn't continue. It wasn't hard to imagine what terrible things might happen to a young woman with such a powerful bloodline who fell into the hands of a ninja force.

Just like Obito, he was almost captured and made a stud in Kusagakure.

Hagi Chiho felt sorry for Kyuhan because she was a woman and had a tragic past; if she were a man, she wouldn't be able to stand up straight now.

Tsunade grasped Hagi Chiho's hand: "Thank you!"

Hagi Chiho shook her head: "No need to thank me, Lady Tsunade. I am a ninja from the 'Hana of Grass' faction in Kusagakure. We 'Hana of Grass' are a group of people who love peace."

Tsunade realized, "So you're from the 'Flower of Grass.' They say you're skilled in diplomacy, maneuvering between nations with your exceptional diplomatic abilities."

The Land of Grass is a puppet of a great power, but that doesn't mean it's a semi-colonial country.

Kusagakure still maintains its independence.

The people of Kusagakure are skilled in diplomacy and are very sensitive to the movements of major powers, enabling them to grasp these movements early on in order to protect themselves.

But why did they make such a foolish decision to side with Madara Uchiha this time?

Hagi Chiho explained to Tsunade that it was all the village's hawkish decision, and "Kusa no Hana" was dragged into it.

"My student Ryuze was once captured by Uchiha Madara, and she said that it was Uchiha Ryougo who saved her."

Tsunade exclaimed in surprise, "There's such a story behind it!"

Hagi nods.

Fishball and Laicai walked over, surrounded by a group of ninja cats.

These cats are all ninja cats from the Void District; they all came to join them after hearing about Madara Uchiha's resurrection.

However, this would completely sever ties with the Uchiha clan.

Madara wasn't in the mood to arrange things for the people of Kusagakure, so this group was arranged by Uobu and Raizai.

Lai Cai is wearing a big gold necklace and a large bracelet; he's obviously a vulgar cat.

It puffed on its cigar, looking at Hagi Chiho and Kyuhin: "You two are quite good-looking, so you'll have Wu Zi's children from now on!"

One of the cats said somewhat awkwardly, "Brother Cai, this...this is a pregnant woman!"

Lai Cai took a drag of his cigarette: "Good luck with pregnant women, buy one get one free! Let's call the child Wu Zi Stepfather!"

Tsunade picked up the cigarette butt with one hand, stubbed it out, and flung it far away.

……

The Land of Rain, the base of Dawn.

The rain at dawn always carries a touch of timid gentleness.

The wind was slightly cool, carrying rain and mist as it brushed against my cheeks, bringing a sense of desolation.

The Land of Rain is still rainy, and the people here seem to have gotten used to it, with every household keeping waterproof rain gear on hand.

Yahiko, Nagato, and Konan donned their uniforms and prepared their ninja tools. The Akatsuki members all got up early and gathered at the base.

Yahiko gave a speech to boost morale and described his ambition to cooperate with Amegakure before setting off.

As soon as the members of Akatsuki emerged from the cave, they paused abruptly because a handsome young man with black hair was standing outside, seemingly having been caught in the rain all morning.

Liao Wu stood in the light rain, arms crossed, his dark eyes fixed on Nagato and his group. "Don't go! It's a trap."

Yahiko did not have Nagato attack Ryougo, but instead led the way past him.

"Uchiha Ryogoku, you are no longer a member of Akatsuki. Akatsuki's affairs are none of your concern."

One by one, the members of Xiao crossed Liaowu.

In this tearful country, you have to keep running to avoid getting wet.

Those who have received Liaowu's kindness will bow deeply to Liaowu when they pass by.

As the Buddha passed Liao Wu, it bowed deeply and said, "I apologize, Lord Liao Wu, but I know there are reasons why I have to go."

As Nagato passed Ryogoku, he coldly questioned him: "Uchiha Ryogoku, was the woman in Yahiko's bed last night arranged by you?"

"Let me tell you, it's impossible for you to use such underhanded tricks to mislead Xiao Nan and thus scheme against us!"

"Give up on that idea! Konan would never fall for a wicked, womanizing Uchiha like you."

Nagato strode away from Liao Wu's figure, gradually disappearing into the distance, as if he had been abandoned by the entire Akatsuki.

Liao Wu shook his head as he watched Nagato's retreating figure. This method wasn't considered underhanded by Liao Wu; he usually just administered the drug directly.

Well, that's terrible. He died young before he even got to experience being an adult.

They've given up B, tried to persuade them to stay, but Liao Wu can't save them now.

Actually, dying at the hands of Hanzo and Danzo would have been better; at least I wouldn't have faced the same despair as Madara Uchiha.

"Liao Wu!"

Xiao Nan's voice rang in Liao Wu's ears. Liao Wu turned his head, bracing himself for Xiao Nan's harsh words.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Nan produced a carnation made of folded white paper and gave it to Liao Wu.

Liao Wu accepted it.

"Although we've only known each other for a short time, and I've always been wary of you, you seem unusually genuine today."

Xiao Nan held Liao Wu in her arms, and Liao Wu could clearly smell Xiao Nan's fragrance.

Xiao Nan gently kissed Liao Wu's cheek: "Thank you for everything you've done for Xiao. Although everything has gone back to the way it was before, at least we had it once."

"Thank you for teaching me medical ninjutsu. Although I haven't mastered it yet, you've fulfilled my dream of becoming a medical ninja."

Liao Wu grabbed Xiao Nan's hand: "Xiao Nan, don't go."

Liao Wu's forbidden technique is very powerful; it can revive people who are on the verge of death.

But it is not a cycle of reincarnation; once a person dies, there is no going back.

Xiao Nan finally managed to pry Liao Wu's hands off, and she smiled at him, saying, "Even if it's a trap, I'll follow them, because... they are my everything!"

Xiao Nan left.

Nagato and Yahiko didn't leave so easily; they kept a close eye on Konan's every move.

Seeing Konan kiss Uchiha Ryogoku, it felt as if something inside her had shattered.

But when they saw Xiao Nan refuse Liao Wu's attempts to keep her and walk resolutely toward them, they exchanged a smile.

Don't underestimate our bond!
