From Pirate to Revolutionary Mentor

Just as no one knew how powerful the Eight Gates' Death Gate was before the final battle, no one knew how resolute Might Guy was in the face of the approaching dawn.

Those who experienced the Third Shinobi World War are now middle-aged.

He had participated in the war and witnessed firsthand how lives were easily taken away on the battlefield.

I also witnessed my father's interpretation of strength.

That's not something to be used for competing and gaining fame; true power should be used when it's most needed.

Just as his father saved him and his teammates, only Conqueror's Haki can bring his comrades back to their senses at this moment.

Crimson lightning bolts clashed and descended.

At the same time, a buzzing sound echoed throughout the entire street.

Even Uchiha Shisui felt his heart tighten and his blood rush to his head at that moment.

This... is Conqueror's Haki?

Shisui looked at Might Guy, who had suddenly appeared, his Mangekyou Sharingan filled with shock.

The person who could barely get into the Ninja Academy back then has now become one of only two people in the village to have awakened Conqueror's Haki.

Because it's difficult to release ninjutsu smoothly with the chakra in his body, and genjutsu is out of the question, Might Guy was initially unable to become a ninja.

His father, Matt Day, told him that if he could run a hundred laps around the school, he would be granted special admission.

Of course, that's impossible.

Learning the Three Body Techniques is difficult, and becoming a ninja would only be a burden and serve no other purpose.

The Fourth Hokage later mentioned that Might Guy and the Third Hokage had a conversation at that time, which made it possible for Might Guy to be admitted to the academy.

"Thump, thump, thump..."

On the street, everyone below the rank of Jonin, including a few Chunin who wanted to help, felt their hearts tighten and their breathing gradually become difficult as the impact swept past.

Finally, his eyes rolled back and he collapsed to the ground.

The crimson impact swept through like a whirlwind, but only Shisui remained completely unmoved.

Crimson lightning crackled around the bewitched ninja. With his Sharingan, Shisui could clearly see that the chakra within the ninja's body was being suppressed and even dissipating.

Ultimately, that power was completely worn away by Conqueror's Haki.

"Bang!"

With a soft thud, the ninja Shisui called Uryu collapsed to the ground.

Matt Kai looked at Shisui: "There are still many comrades who are being controlled. I'll leave this place to you."

After Shisui nodded, Matt Kai leaped up and headed in another direction.

Shisui tapped his forehead: "Inoichi, Area 01 of the incident needs medical support."

"There were no casualties, he just fainted. But the person who launched the attack needs to wake up as soon as possible so that we can ask him what happened."

After disconnecting, Uchiha Shisui looked at the street to the side.

"In this situation, bringing along saplings that haven't grown yet is not a good choice."

Kakashi, who sensed the fluctuation of Conqueror's Haki as soon as he got close, protected the three brats who insisted on following behind him.

At this point, he could only helplessly shrug and say, "Obito went to the Rain region as the Hokage's bodyguard. I have to protect them in this situation, otherwise it will be troublesome when he comes back."

Two little devils came out from behind him.

Naruto looked around, his eyes wide: "Why are the villagers fainting too? Has Uncle Thick-Browed been controlled as well?"

Sasuke shook his head slightly: "My brother said that genjutsu cannot work on Might Guy, a Jonin."

Sakura, still behind Kakashi, felt her legs go weak and whispered that she wanted to go to the shelter.

Kakashi looked at the collapsed Uryu, then walked over and explained, "This is Conqueror's Haki. It's taught in textbooks, but you just haven't seen it before. Guy still can't control his Conqueror's Haki precisely, which is why so many ordinary people fainted even without any collision."

Kakashi glanced at Shisui and said, "I also know some medical ninjutsu. I can give it a try if you don't mind."

However, Shisui did not move aside, but instead looked up and turned on the kaleidoscope.

Upon seeing this, Kakashi lifted his headband, revealing his Sharingan.

The three tomoe spun, and then the eye power exploded, activating the Mangekyou Sharingan as well.

"Can."

Shisui stepped aside, and Kakashi also closed the eye that had been taking a heavy toll on him.

One of them was the captain of the Dark Guard, and the other was a squad leader in the Dark Guard two years ago, so they naturally understood that they needed to be cautious in this situation.

Green chakra gathered in Kakashi's palm, simultaneously covering Uryu's brain.

"My chakra almost ran out completely. If it had been completely eradicated, there would have been no way to save me."

Shisui frowned: "The research institute was established not long ago, and the talents in all research areas are the village's most valuable asset. Although we don't know what happened yet, it's clear that their actions just now were beyond our control."

Kakashi's brow furrowed: "I understand."

On the other side, the three kids were also shocked by Kakashi's explanation.

Conqueror's Haki is also a type of Haki, but apart from one instance in the book that had a deterrent effect, it was not mentioned much else.

But who could have known that the deterrent effect would be so astonishing?

The streets were filled with people who had fainted, and the controlled ninjas even had their own chakra nearly wiped out.

Such powerful suppression and such a deterrent effect are simply terrifying.

Sasuke Uchiha's body trembled slightly; the power of the Haki was too strong...

Naruto, however, had another question in his mind: Just how strong was his father, who always seemed to be smiling?

Soon, Uryu, who had fainted, was out of immediate danger thanks to the stimulation of Kakashi's chakra, and Uchiha Shisui, who had been waiting, also looked at him.

"Can I speak?"

"I'm...I'm sorry."

"I think the new idea should have told you that in this situation, the first thing to do is not to apologize."

"I...I understand."

"It was... Danzo. I saw it with my own eyes... that dead person... reappear. His voice... could make people... trust him without them even realizing it..."

Yulong, who had just opened his eyes, wanted to recount what had happened, but Shisui had already begun his report.

Until he finished speaking, the only two points he emphasized were these two.

Meanwhile, Shisui issued a series of commands through Haiyi's connection.

He then nodded to Kakashi and instantly teleported towards the attack point that needed support.

……

Three hours later, the chaos in Konoha had begun to stabilize.

In fact, the attackers were not very strong.

After the police force, Jonin, and Anbu took action, the situation was quickly brought under control.

Might Guy's Conqueror's Haki ensured that none of the people he controlled were harmed.

However, the medical team became quite busy.

……

The management team was gathered in the Hokage Building, but no one spoke.

Nara Shikaku closed his eyes, pondering the entire course of the sudden incident, the other party's purpose, and the losses suffered by Konoha.

"Danzo is still alive?"

Hiashi Hyuga was the first to lose his composure.

Following closely behind was Itachi Uchiha: "If Guy hadn't concealed his Conqueror's Haki, while the village wouldn't have suffered many casualties, the researchers at the research institute..."

Shisui let out a breath: "The research institute was established not long ago. If this group of talents is lost, the village will be much weaker in terms of competitiveness in the future."

Itachi looked at Shisui: "Can you confirm that Danzo was subordinate to those people? Is it possible that he was from one of the other four great ninja villages?"

Yamanaka Inoichi, who was in charge of internal communication channels for this stabilization operation, shook his head slightly.

"I have a summary of the situation at each attack site, and someone mentioned divine magic. I think you are all familiar with that term."

Divine magic...

What you're saying is a technique used by the Otsutsuki clan involving the power of rules after absorbing chakra.

In this way, the stance of the resurrected Danzo can be determined.

At the same time, Nara Shikaku also guessed some things.

"The Hokage and the Tailed Beasts have left the village, but the enemy is still causing chaos in the village, but we quickly stabilized the situation."

"Their goals and actions are inconsistent, so I suspect the chaos is just part of their plan. Their ultimate target is still the tailed beast that has already left the village."

……

Meanwhile, after the chaos subsided, Kakashi was drafted into the hospital.

During this vacation, he was supposed to report to the Jonin team, but he not only temporarily took over Team 7, but now he can't even take a vacation.

Meanwhile, Class 7 was also assisting in maintaining order at the shelter.

The moment the explosion was heard, villagers rushed to the shelter, a habit left over from the war years.

After the chaos subsided, the villagers who had taken refuge needed to evacuate from the shelter.

However, it was clear that all three members of Class 7 were somewhat distracted.

Naruto and others were equally astonished by the power of the domineering aura.

The three types of Haki are described in textbooks as the power to suppress chakra. Armament Haki can amplify both defense and offense, while Observation Haki can hear the sounds of all attacks.

Neither of these two techniques possesses the dazzling brilliance of ninjutsu. Although one knows they represent powerful strength, they are not as captivating as high-level ninjutsu.

But this time...

The moment he appeared, his mere presence caused everyone around him to faint and fall to the ground.

This kind of power is much more imposing than ninjutsu.

"That teacher of Xiao Li is really amazing."

All the evacuees had been evacuated, and in the empty shelter, only the three members of the seventh squad sat on the ground.

Sakura said it casually.

Naruto and Sasuke exchanged a glance.

Sasuke asked, "My brother said that the only person in the village who has mastered Conqueror's Haki is the Hokage. Now... we have to add that Jonin to the list."

"Don't look at me like that..."

Naruto sighed and said, "Dad is busy day and night. When he came home before, he used Shadow Clones. Like you, my understanding of Conqueror's Haki is limited to books."

These words made Sasuke proudly raise his head.

Although it wasn't explicitly stated, the two have known each other very well after being classmates for so many years.

Naruto scratched his head: "I'll ask Dad when he gets back. If that doesn't work, we'll go to the Hokage Building and ask him. We'll go together then."

Sasuke turned his back, his kunai seemingly digging into the rock wall, as if he didn't care.

"I didn't say... I can ask my brother. But if it's the Hokage, he should be more... than that Jonin..."

Sasuke paused for a moment at this point.

The kunai in his hand seemed to have been hindered by something just now.

"Naruto."

"Hmm? Don't worry, I'll take you with me as soon as possible."

Sakura, who was standing to the side, wanted to chime in, but found that she seemed unable to keep up with the pace of the two.

At this moment, Sasuke's hands trembled slightly: "Naruto, there are... explosive tags here!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Naruto rolled over and stood up.

Then he looked at the small hole that Sasuke had just dug, where a corner of an explosive tag was already visible.

If the position had been slightly off, the explosive tag buried in the rock layer would have riddled Sasuke with holes in the rock instantly.

"The shelter was planted with explosive tags; this couldn't have been done by the village."

Sasuke's hand trembled as he put it down: "It wasn't just the explosive tags. There was a slight obstruction on the kunai just now; it must have been the thread connecting the explosive tags. It wasn't just one tag, but a series of explosive tags linked together. To remove them, we would need to use a technique to break the connection."

As he spoke, Sasuke looked at Naruto, and their eyes met.

One was the son of the Hokage, and the other was the second son of the Uchiha clan patriarch. Their knowledge was naturally extraordinary, and they made a connection to many things in just a moment.

At that moment, a voice emerged from beneath the rock strata.

"Let me see what I found? Three little devils stayed here, and they're quite a valuable bargaining chip, you know."

The moment White Zetsu's voice rang out, he was stabbed by a kunai from Sasuke.

"run!"

With a low shout, Sasuke headed straight for White Zetsu, wanting to create an opportunity for Naruto and Sakura to leave.

Although he was proud, he was also aware of the limitations of his three newly graduated genin. Besides, the teacher had mentioned this monster-like creature before.

In the instant he charged forward, Naruto didn't hesitate for a moment, grabbing Sakura and running towards the outside of the shelter.

However, after only a few steps, the two stopped.

"Dan...Zou!"

Naruto's gaze sharpened slightly.

In the Second and Third Shinobi World Wars during the Shinobi Village era, this sinner's name and photo appeared in the history taught in the ideological classes.

He could recognize the other person, and he also knew the difference in their abilities.

"The son of the Fourth Hokage, that child from twelve years ago. Between family and the village, the Fourth Hokage no longer needs to be torn between them."

As he spoke, Danzo paused in his tracks and suddenly appeared in front of Naruto.

In an instant, Naruto extended his right hand, and a Rasengan was pressed directly onto his palm.

"Buzz..."

However, the Rasengan was directly grasped, forming a round Rasengan, which was swallowed by the opponent's palm in a very short time.

"Naruto!"

Sakura, who was originally behind him, stopped trembling and threw a punch at the other person's head.

They wanted to attack the enemy so they would have to come to their rescue, and at the same time, they wanted Naruto to escape.

Despite her fear, her awakened mind made her realize that her identity as the son of the Fourth Hokage would give the other side another bargaining chip.

"Bang."

The punch landed squarely on Danzo's face, yet the opponent remained completely unmoved.

"Commendable courage, but no power whatsoever."

Danzo threw Naruto off, then said, "You're not happy, are you? You're the Hokage's son, yet you receive no special treatment..." (End of Chapter)
