Konoha: This Uchiha is going a bit too far.

Chapter 167 The First Hokage, Madara Uchiha, and Jiraiya's Prophecy (8K Chapters)

Jiraiya's desire to die was truly unexpected by Hagoromo.

Although this flag isn't raised as loudly as in the original work, this guy's fearless spirit is truly astonishing to Yuzhi.

Yuzhi really couldn't understand it. Wasn't it better to be alive?

However, after thinking it over, Yuzhi felt that she didn't have a good reason to stop him, since he was going to see her disciples and also to bring some information to Konoha.

Besides, the Akatsuki members might not actually dare to kill Jiraiya, since Jiraiya represented Konoha, and Konoha nominally had a grudge against the Akatsuki.

"Otherwise, they wouldn't have given me the news that Iwagakure and Kumogakure were planning an alliance. It's just that Jiraiya..."

Yuri stroked her chin. Jiraiya really made her uneasy, so Yuri finally decided to send a wooden clone to follow him.

If danger arises, what else can the Wood Clone do? At worst, it can summon itself using the Flying Thunder God Technique!

"Jiraiya is really a headache."

Yuzhi rubbed her temples, then quickly created a wooden clone to follow.

After doing all this, Hagoromo turned to look at Hikaru's former room, and suddenly realized that he might as well let Jiraiya die.

"The doors are all locked."

Yuzhi's lips twitched slightly, and it seemed that she had also taken Lin inside with her, which made Yuzhi somewhat helpless.

He touched his chin, realizing he could only continue with his current task, though the sensation he had just felt still lingered in his memory.

"Damn it, I'm the head of the Uchiha clan, how did I become the head of the Hyuga clan?"

As Yuzhi was reflecting on the situation, he suddenly felt that something was amiss, but he quickly shook his head.

What Hyuga clan leader? At worst, I'll just change my name to 'Uchiha Hiashi'!

"Never mind, I don't want to think about that too much. Let me look at the work I have on my hands first."

Yuzhi sighed, then looked down at the manuscript in his hand. But after what happened with Jiraiya, he realized that his mind was no longer on the manuscript.

He couldn't help but sigh slightly. After all, the ninja world had changed beyond recognition, and even Yuri needed to carefully consider future plans.

"Although we have the help of Kirigakure and possibly even the Land of Rain, Konoha also needs to keep up, and I also need to do something."

Yuzhi tapped the table. Although it wasn't a big deal for him to run away, since the wooden clones were sometimes very effective.

However, Yuri also needs to consider some other things, namely the issue of dealing with 'Uchiha Madara'.

The "Uchiha Madara" that Haori created was initially just a way to shift blame, and even now, the purpose of shifting blame is still quite clear.

After all, things that he couldn't do, Madara Uchiha could do; things that he couldn't do casually, Madara Uchiha could still do casually!

The only problem is that they are the same person. If they bump into each other in the future, the situation could be quite bad.

Therefore, figuring out how to "legitimize" this identity has become the key task for Yuzhi now.

Fortunately, Yuri's joke last time actually helped him a lot, even though he himself was just talking nonsense to spite Tobirama Senju.

However, for now, this explanation seems to be the most reasonable, reliable, and applicable!

"After all, I'm the Hokage now. Given the First Hokage's track record, isn't it only natural that he made Madara Uchiha the Hokage after Tobirama Senju's death?"

Madara Uchiha was the Hokage, which explains many things.

For example, why did he strike hard at others but not at Konoha?

Why does Wood Release exist? How can so many things be researched? And why does its strength suddenly weaken at certain times, sometimes even becoming just a Wood Clone?

"After all, he is the Hokage, so he has a lot of things to deal with. Naturally, he can only send a wood clone over."

Moreover, since they are not enemies, Yuzhi does not need to fight with "herself". Even if it is necessary on the surface, it is enough for them to hold back and fight in a good way.

There are many powerful people in the ninja world, but there are not many who can discern the intricacies of their combined Susanoo releases.

"Then, the identity of 'another Obito' can be optimized a bit, so that we don't have to worry about some inexplicable problems."

If Obito from this world has gone mad, then what if the "Obito from another world" hasn't gone mad? Wouldn't that solve the problem?

However, he still needs to carefully consider what kind of identity the "Obito" dressed in a haori is.

Fortunately, apart from the Akatsuki members, Minato and the others knew nothing about "Obito"!

"Wait, there's also the issue of Orochimaru. At worst, we could set it up as him being awakened by the Impure World Reincarnation of Orochimaru?"

Yuzhi stroked his chin, feeling that he had made some mistakes earlier, but he quickly calmed down.

Anyway, Orochimaru has a history of constantly switching sides, so who can say for sure whether he is a member of Konoha or Akatsuki?

Or to be more precise, when he was still the ninja fighting for the title of "Hokage," he truly had Konoha in his heart.

But once he became a rogue ninja, he was probably just living for himself and pursuing his own dreams.

"So, the mountains are actually relatively easy to deal with. As far as time goes by, Madara Uchiha came from the future, and he should have died long ago. Orochimaru is really indispensable here."

Having thought this through, Yuzhi felt that she now had a clear goal and direction.

"So, the most important thing now is..."

Let's get this done now, so that nothing goes wrong!

"Furthermore, with this Uchiha Madara, I can use him to summon myself, which makes my movements much more convenient..."

Thinking of this, a smile appeared on Yuzhi's face.

Although it's a product of a perverse sense of humor, some things can be said through the mouth of 'Uchiha Madara,' which makes things much easier for the haori.

In this way, Yuzhi's hidden strength can be gradually unearthed with the help of 'Uchiha Madara'.

After all, this is a "legacy" that transcends time and space. Many people buy into the idea that the first generation helps the fifth generation!

"Then, I choose you, Tobirama Senju!"

Quietly standing up, Yu Zhi once again used the Wood Clone Technique, and then he disappeared into the Kamui Space.

Meeting Tobirama Senju was a choice made after careful consideration. After all, as the Hokage, it was impossible for Haori to have a peaceful encounter with Madara Uchiha.

Furthermore, both Madara Uchiha and Tobirama Senju were figures from the Sengoku period and had many interactions with each other.

Although it's easy to give yourself away if you go to see him, everything becomes incredibly simple once you've won him over!

Of course, Hagoromo wouldn't admit that he wanted to infuriate Tobirama Senju.

"Has the money that evil brat Naruto requested been disbursed yet?"

"Teacher, Hagoromo is the Hokage."

"But he's just an evil Uchiha brat! Enough of that, let's get down to business!"

"The funds have already been allocated, but now Konoha's finances are under pressure."

Inside the advisor's office in the Hokage Building, Tobirama Senju was dealing with some unfinished and complicated tasks in Konoha with his three disciples.

Actually, none of these things need to be dealt with today; they should have been resting long ago.

However, Tobirama Senju was an Edo Tensei, and he was a true example of someone who could fight all day without getting tired.

No need to rest, eat or drink, go to the toilet, or even sleep. In addition, there are so many policies set up by Yuzhi. What can be done if we don't deal with them?

Moreover, although he said that Yuzhi was a "born evil Uchiha brat", he had to admit that Yuzhi's policies and ideas were very much to his liking.

Even though he felt that Yui was developing in the same direction as Uchiha Madara, there was nothing he could change now.

Therefore, he simply used work to numb himself, and at the same time, he also called on his three good apprentices.

rest?

What do you need to rest?

go to bed?

What are you sleeping for? You're only in your sixties, what are you sleeping for?

Why sleep so much in life? You'll sleep forever after you die!

Get up and get to work!

Of course, dying isn't a big deal; at worst, you can be resurrected using Edo Tensei and keep going.

It wasn't that Tobirama Senju hadn't had such thoughts before, but for some reason, after having these thoughts, he would always inexplicably look at the streetlights.

However, he was too lazy to think about the problem; once he had dealt with these matters, he could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

"Then hurry up with the preparations on the daimyo's side. I heard that guy won't surrender easily, right?"

Tobirama Senju glanced at the report in his hand, then asked a question.

"Yes, although he did it very discreetly, he did start hiring ninjas."

Although Koharu was quite tired, she still nodded seriously.

"However, he is also quite self-aware and has not tried to pressure us through public opinion, and there have been signs that he is softening his stance recently."

"Hmph, it's just a delaying tactic. We'll have the Anbu deal with him, and at the same time, we'll send ninja units to wipe out all his men."

Tobirama Senju was never a soft-hearted person. As the only Hokage who was different from the gentle people of the past, he didn't even bother to pretend.

If it's time to take action, then take action; if it's time to deal with it, then bury you. I don't want to waste a single word on you!

His words made the Third Hokage and the other two look embarrassed; it was as if he were giving an order in the tone of the Hokage.

You've overstepped your bounds, teacher.

If you keep doing that, the Fifth Hokage will tell you again, "I am the Hokage."

"I will compile the teacher's comments into a report and place it as the first document to be submitted tomorrow. Please review it, Fifth Generation."

Although the third generation was embarrassed, he reacted quickly and immediately spoke up.

"Furthermore, I believe the Fifth Generation will support the teacher's proposal, because the Fifth Generation, like the teacher, never shows mercy to the enemy."

"Okay, I understand."

Tobirama Senju nodded expressionlessly, but he was somewhat annoyed. If it were any other Hokage, they probably would have listened to him.

But the current Hokage is Uchiha, and their lineage was killed by Danzo, which made him extremely frustrated.

Sometimes he wondered if there wouldn't have been so much trouble if he hadn't taken Shimura Danzo as his disciple.

What struck him as even stranger was that, for some reason, he suddenly thought of another world—the world where the so-called "Uchiha Madara" became Hokage.

What was Shimura Danzo like in that world?

"I thought I misheard, or even that my perception was wrong, but I never expected that you, a dead man, would actually get up."

Just as they were pondering, a deep voice suddenly rang in their ears.

"However, you seem much weaker now than when you died, but that seems to suit you better, Tobirama Senju."

"Who goes there!"

The voice startled everyone present. The Third Hokage immediately stood up and shouted, but Tobirama Senju was completely stunned.

"So you're that little monkey, Hiruzen Sarutobi? You've really gotten old."

From the shadows, a man dressed in ancient red armor, with spiky long hair and wearing a tengu mask, slowly walked out.

This person walked with steady steps, his breath was incredibly natural and unique, yet it carried a special charm.

He slowly walked this way, doing nothing else, but with the sound of his footsteps, the Third Generation and the others suddenly felt their breathing become incredibly heavy!

An extreme sense of oppression arose in their hearts, and a feeling of helplessness as if facing a demon constantly echoed in their minds.

In that instant, they knew exactly who they were facing!

"Uchiha Madara?"

Koharu Utatane and Homura Mitokado both clenched their fists involuntarily at that moment, staring blankly at the person who had just arrived.

For a moment they were all a little dazed. Even though this guy was wearing a mask, his aura was definitely not something an ordinary person could possess!

What is he doing here? What does he want to do?

Unfortunately, Madara Uchiha only glanced at them before turning his gaze back to Tobirama Senju.

"Impure World Reincarnation, I see. You really can't change your ways. Hmm?"

Just as Yuri was pretending to be Madara Uchiha and was about to say something, he suddenly noticed that the Third Hokage next to him suddenly moved!

"I'll hold them off, you all get out of here right now, and make sure you find the Fifth Boss!"

The Third Hokage roared, and in the next instant, he pulled out a kunai from who-knows-where and stabbed it fiercely at the haori.

I'm right here, aren't I?

Yuzhi was speechless upon hearing the Third Hokage's words, and he was also somewhat taken aback by the Third Hokage's sudden attack.

He really didn't expect this guy to be so resolute, and judging from his posture, he planned to stay behind to cover the retreat.

"Could it be that Tobirama Senju's presence here triggered some deep-seated memories for him?"

However, when faced with the Third Hokage's attack, he merely tilted his head slightly, and in an instant, his eyes turned crimson!

"Stop, monkey!"

Just as the Third Hokage was about to rush forward, Tobirama Senju shouted loudly.

"You are no match for him, so don't make any rash moves. Besides, he's not here to cause trouble."

Tobirama Senju didn't want to say those words at all, but he had no choice; he had to stop it all now.

Madara Uchiha knew all too well what kind of power he possessed.

If this guy is allowed to run rampant in Konoha, even if Yugi comes, there will be nothing he can do. In the end, only Konoha will be destroyed!

He knew very well how the Fourth Mizukage had died. Even though he was unhappy that the Uchiha had become Hokage, he still cared about Konoha.

He stood up, looked at Uchiha Madara with his arms crossed, his scarlet eyes filled with amusement as he watched them, and took a deep breath to ask.

"And what about you? What's your current state? Are you too afraid to show your true face?"

"It's not that I'm afraid, but that there's no need for it."

Seeing that a fight was not going to break out for the time being, Yu Zhi breathed a slight sigh of relief. He was not the same as before; he was not afraid of this kind of battle at all. However, he also needed to consider the consequences.

He's not here to fight, he's here to discuss business.

He turned his head slightly to look at the Third Hokage before speaking softly.

"I'll tell you the reason later. And little monkey, I'll let you off this time, after all..."

"Konoha is also my Konoha, even if we are not in the same world."

Because I am the First Hokage!

-

"How can we make Jiraiya more wary?"

As the main body of Haori went to meet with the Second Hokage and the others, one of Haori's wooden clones also followed Jiraiya.

Even Jiraiya's Wood Clone was finding it difficult to keep up with his reckless actions.

Wood clones are an advanced version of shadow clones, possessing the same thinking ability and synchronized consciousness as the caster.

This means that the wooden clone possesses the same thought process as the original body, and the things it does can be seen as things that the original body would do.

This is why Yuzhi dared to use a wood clone to stay in Konoha in his place, and now this wood clone of Yuzhi is thinking about the question he had been pondering.

"We need to keep this guy on his guard, lest he accidentally die."

Yuzhi followed slowly, but her mind was constantly pondering this question.

He didn't know how long he had been following him. When he came to his senses, he suddenly froze for a moment, and then his face turned black.

Because he discovered that after Jiraiya left Konoha, he actually ran to a small town, and then unceremoniously started drinking happily with a woman in his arms!

"That bastard, I don't care if he dies."

Yu Zhi mentally complained, but looking at the woman's graceful figure, he couldn't help but blink.

"Damn it! I was happily giving Hikaru a massage when I turned around and my wooden clone came here. Now that I'm unhappy, you're not having an easy time either!"

Although it was a wood clone, the thought that he was still playing the role of "Hyuga Hiashi" made him turn around and be separated and come here, where he could only watch Jiraiya happily.

Yuzhi felt she couldn't let this guy have it so easy; at least she had to make sure he couldn't do anything tonight!

"After all, I'm the Hokage. It's only reasonable for me to punish someone like you who didn't take the mission seriously enough. Besides, you're quite a believer in prophecies, so I'll give you a hand."

As Yuzhi thought to himself, his eyes transformed into a kaleidoscope in the next instant.

The wood clone possesses the power to use eye techniques, a fact he had already verified with Madara Uchiha.

Moreover, as the only clone technique that can fool the Eternal Eye, how can it fool the opponent if it cannot use its own ability?

"Hahahaha, drink!"

Jiraiya leaned back on the sofa, behaving himself in a carefree manner, and happily laughed as he embraced a woman.

"The outside world is so much better! I was going crazy in Konoha. Those tigresses in Konoha are really scary. Girls outside are so cute, hahaha!"

Jiraiya was in a good mood. He had felt really depressed for the past three years in Konoha. If it weren't for his beliefs, he probably would have run away long ago.

However, he remained quite restrained, planning to just have a few drinks; he still had a mission to carry out and couldn't afford to embarrass himself.

As for now, it's just a matter of finding materials!

"drink"

Just as Jiraiya was happily drinking, he suddenly felt a little dizzy, which puzzled him.

Could it be that after holding back for three years, his alcohol tolerance has decreased?

But before he could think any further, he suddenly realized that his surroundings had changed!

The once noisy tavern, filled with the laughter of women, suddenly became unusually quiet. He was surrounded by darkness, with only the mournful sound of rain echoing in his ears.

"This is..."

Jiraiya was filled with doubt. The next moment, he saw a hole in front of him and immediately reached out and climbed out without hesitation!

"Illusion?"

Jiraiya murmured to himself, becoming increasingly alert, but just then he heard his own voice.

"Spirit Summoning: Toad Concealment Technique!"

Toad hiding?

What's going on?

Jiraiya was baffled, but soon his vision changed. He found himself in a world filled with rain, and "he" was crawling out of a toad's mouth!

"this"

But slowly he calmed down, he observed carefully, and he realized where he was.

"The Land of Rain, huh? My destination this time, but something feels different. Why did I infiltrate it?"

Jiraiya was puzzled, because he was carrying the Hokage's documents and was officially visiting the Land of Rain. Why would he need to do this?

Although he was puzzled, he soon realized that his stealth had been discovered, and he was then forced to fight a woman whose face he could not see.

"Paper Release, that technique."

Jiraiya's heart was filled with mixed feelings, because in his memory, someone really did use the Paper Release technique, and that person was Konan!

"And she's even wearing Akatsuki attire, could it be..."

Just as he was struggling with this decision, he suddenly saw himself fighting with other people who were also wearing Akatsuki uniforms and whose faces were also obscured.

Summoning techniques, ninjutsu, and even sage techniques appeared one after another at this moment, and Jiraiya became more and more shocked as he watched, because he would most likely fight in the same way if he were in that situation.

But more importantly, he was surprised to find that there were still some things he had not fully mastered.

Or perhaps it's a combat technique that's not usually so easy to use, but this "self" in front of me is so adept at it, using it with exceptional ease!

"Is this me, who knows how many years from now?"

In that instant, Jiraiya seemed to have a sudden realization, but what puzzled him was that his knowledge of the Akatsuki leader's abilities seemed far too vague.

He now has a general understanding of the Akatsuki organization. Even if he doesn't know the abilities of their mysterious leader, he has read Konoha's documents.

After all, Yuzhi had personally fought against that guy, whether it was 'repulsion', 'gravity', 'summoning beasts', 'puppets', or 'chakra absorption'.

He knew about that enormous behemoth, but the person in front of him seemed completely unaware of these things and had suffered a great loss as a result.

"However, there are some problems with the information about Yuzhi. That guy can control a lot of puppets, and it seems that they can share vision."

Jiraiya muttered to himself, while the version of himself in the scene was slowly becoming less and less effective.

Seeing that he had decided to gamble and stay, only to have his arm severed and be forced to leave, he had already guessed the ending.

"If it were me, I'd probably stay and pass on intelligence instead of leaving."

Jiraiya was overwhelmed with emotions. He no longer cared whether it was an illusion or not; he simply watched and pondered quietly.

When he saw himself, in his final moments, enduring immense pain, using his pierced arm to leave a coded message behind Fukasaku, he already knew the ending.

"Please give these to Tsunade. I'm entrusting them to you, Fukasaku the Sage."

Hearing that low and weak voice, Jiraiya clenched his fist.

Before long, in the calm water, he saw his disheveled, one-armed self fall into it, and his life was gradually entering a low point.

"The Tale of Jiraiya the Gallant"

"Does this look more like it now?"

As he continued to sink, Jiraiya seemed to hear the voice of "himself" and could almost see the smile on his face.

"The final chapter, the volume where the frogs of the well are scattered in the ocean?"

"Haha, that's actually quite appropriate."

"Alright, it's about time to put down your pen."

"Oh, by the way, what's a good title for the sequel?"

"I've got it! If not, then it's called 'The Tale of Naruto Uzumaki'!"

As his own figure slowly disappeared, even the most resolute emotions of Jiraiya began to soften at that moment.

A nameless sorrow began to reverberate in his heart. He wanted to do something but found himself unable to move; he wanted to say something but found himself unable to speak at all.

"What's wrong, Ninja Master? Why are you suddenly silent? Keep drinking."

In a daze, a woman's voice suddenly echoed in his ears, which immediately brought him back to his senses.

Looking around, he could see that he had returned to the tavern, one arm still around the alluring woman, the other holding a glass full of wine.

At this moment, even Jiraiya was somewhat confused. If it weren't for the memories that were sometimes blurry and sometimes vivid in his mind, he would have thought that he had been attacked!

"Tsunade became Hokage? That's really outrageous."

Jiraiya showed no sign of enjoyment; he simply lowered his head and began to sort through the memories in his mind.

"And Naruto, Minato's son? Could it be him?"

Suddenly, Jiraiya remembered what the Toad Sage had said: dreams have changed.

Does this mean that the original chosen one was Naruto, but was replaced for some special reason?

After all, the Hokage is Tsunade, not Haori, which is enough to explain a lot!

However, Jiraiya couldn't help but ponder another question: what he saw in his "dream".

"Xiao Nan, is that you?"

"And also, could it be that I also possess the Toad Sage's ability to foresee the future?"

-

"Because I am the First Hokage!"

It's easy to imagine how astonished the Third Hokage and the others were upon hearing the name "Uchiha Madara."

A defector from this world, even though he was never explicitly defined as a rogue ninja, did the most terrifying things for Konoha.

He attacked Konoha with the Nine-Tails, forcing the First Hokage to fight, and their battle was so fierce that it was truly earth-shattering.

The terrain around Konoha was completely destroyed. A perfectly good plain was turned into the Valley of the End. Not only that, the First Hokage died a few years after the battle with him.

This could even be considered the beginning of Konoha's decline from its peak and the ninja world's transformation from stability to turmoil, and all of this is inextricably linked to this guy.

Now this guy is spouting nonsense right in front of them, saying he's the First Hokage. How can they possibly keep their composure?

But they were unable to refute it, because they simply didn't know where to begin.

This guy said from the beginning that he's not from this world, and nobody knows how other worlds are doing or how they're developing.

But isn't this just too outrageous?

"Haori's words, could they have come true?"

Although they always remembered what Yuri had said and were willing to believe it, they still found it difficult to cope when they actually faced them.

"Speaking of which, this world is really a mess."

Just as everyone was feeling a mix of emotions, Yuzhi walked to the window and looked at the Hokage Rock not far away.

"Did Hashirama break his promise to make me Hokage?"

No, although this guy is annoyingly rigid, he is an extremely trustworthy person.

"It seems the world has changed dramatically because of your existence, Tobirama Senju."

Damn it, I'm the one who should be alive!

Senju Tobirama was in a state of high tension, and without thinking twice, he stood up and began to curse angrily.

"Bullshit! I think it's because you're alive that something's wrong!"

"Yeah?"

Hagoromo turned around indifferently, and in the next instant, before anyone could see what he had done, Tobirama Senju's head had already flown off!

"teacher!"

"you"

"Don't worry, this guy is an impure resurrection, he won't die."

Seeing the Third Hokage and the others who had come to their senses and were now filled with anger, Haori leisurely found a place and sat down.

"He invented the Impure World Reincarnation technique, and he himself is a dead person. You can't expect a dead person to die twice, can you?"

I came here with good intentions. The reason I came to you is because I am quite familiar with this idiot.

Before that, I was curious about something: there seemed to be no trace of Izuna in this world, nor were there many rumors about him.

What happened to him in this world?

Faced with this question, the Third Generation and the others exchanged bewildered glances, genuinely unsure how to answer it.

This guy was too fast; he was so fast that they didn't even see what happened before their teacher's head was sliced ​​off.

If it were them, I'm afraid...

Besides, Uchiha Izuna is dead, and he died at the hands of his own teacher. What if something goes wrong with him?

"Uchiha Izuna died long ago!"

Just then, Tobirama Senju, whose mind had recovered, suddenly shouted.

"And I killed him with my own hands!"

In that instant, the three Third Hokage had already considered things like whether they could be resurrected using the Impure World Reincarnation technique since they didn't have bodies after their deaths.

Teacher, can't you just say this outright?

(End of this chapter)
