From Pirate to Revolutionary Mentor

Prior to this, the five great ninja villages believed that the Ten-Tails' split bodies might also be monsters created by the Otsutsuki clan.

But now, even the Otsutsuki clan has to seek outside help from this monster.

No one present was a fool.

Although the appearance of Otsutsuki Isshiki was unexpected, Kevin's domineering aura suppressed it, and after a conversation, everyone had figured out a lot of things.

The only people this extraterrestrial being truly interested in cooperating with are likely the Master, or a few individuals who have awakened Conqueror's Haki, and not humans.

Different levels of life.

That makes it quite obvious.

Furthermore, the other party dared to show up despite their opposing stances and the fact that Mr. [the man] was present, and did not flee immediately after being suppressed by Mr. [the man].

All of this demonstrates that... the Ten-Tails, which has developed consciousness, and the monsters that attacked various towns, were beings that even they feared.

Fear drives people to seek cooperation with others who share a common enemy.

Furthermore, it is because of the power of the gentleman, or the special nature of the domineering power system, that they can become partners, rather than being forcibly bound together.

However, once again, the gentleman handed over the power of choice to them.

……

Sometimes, even Hanzo, Minato Namikaze, and others miss the way ninjas thought in the past.

There's no need to think so much. If it's an enemy, just defeat them. Even if you can't beat them, you can still get some blood on them. Who knows, you might even unleash your full potential and trigger the power of your chakra essence, making things even more exciting.

But now...

The growth of their ideas and the changes in the world have led them to see the possibility of continued peace in the future.

But the more this is the case, the less easily decisions can be made, as in the past.

Among the five Kage present, as well as the commanders of the General Political Office and the Revolutionary Army, Onoki and Hanzo had a deep understanding of this.

As people get older and have been in power for a long time, they become hesitant and timid, because a single decision could save or kill an entire village.

And now... whether or not to cooperate is a gamble with the fate of all humanity.

So after Otsutsuki Isshiki's words, everyone remained silent.

At that moment, Kevin spoke up.

"Every system has its own drawbacks, and the expanded meeting format naturally has its drawbacks as well."

As soon as Kevin finished speaking, everyone looked over.

This is a sign of respect for Mr. Kevin, and it also represents the great influence Kevin has had on them.

Before they understood the secrets of this world, they did not know about the Otsutsuki, the origin of the tailed beasts, or the existence of the Ten-Tails.

It wasn't until the emergence of the Overlord that humanity's power could no longer be ignored by these extraterrestrial beings who considered themselves gods, and only then did we truly have the means to see things clearly.

The more I understand him, the more grateful I feel for his existence.

It should be understood that, if it weren't for the overwhelming power, the divine techniques displayed by a mere clone would be beyond the capabilities of even a ninja.

If it weren't for the Master, the new ideas, and the domineering presence, then perhaps the entire ninja world would have been obediently drained of nutrients, becoming a fruit to be devoured by those from beyond the heavens.

Onoki sighed: "Sir should understand that this decision will affect the future fate of the entire ninja world. We... cannot make such a decision lightly."

Hanzo glanced at the others and gave a self-deprecating laugh.

"The former Land of Rain has become the current Rain Region. Its commercial center supports the resources of the entire ninja world. The changes in just over ten years are enormous."

"The one who used to be barefoot is now wearing shoes. With a future free of war seemingly within reach, we cannot make a decision, because such a decision might jeopardize that future, sir!"

The two older generations expressed their concerns.

These words made the younger generation of Minato Namikaze and the Fourth Raikage, and even the younger generation of Gaara, even more cautious for a time.

However, Kevin spoke up, asking, "Is it concern about the future of the world, or fear of becoming a sinner in this world?"

"The expanded meeting system is fairer to some extent. The presence of a powerful figure can also provide a path for those at the bottom to move up."

"However, this system can also create two opposing camps when faced with life-or-death situations. And because no one is willing to take on this enormous responsibility, things get delayed, and sometimes even become irreversible."

"Of course, I'm not asking you to agree; I'm just explaining the drawbacks of a system."

Kevin paused at this point.

Otsutsuki Isshiki, who was standing to the side, said, "You should know my purpose, but compared to us, the Ten-Tails, which is a monster to begin with, will be even more brutal."

Kevin looked at Isshiki: "There are currently only two Otsutsuki on this planet, you and Kaguya, but Kaguya devoured a Chakra Fruit thousands of years ago. Her original servant might now possess abilities stronger than yours."

"So you want to use the power of divine magic to defeat Kaguya, and at the same time draw energy from this world once more."

Kevin then looked at the others and said, "This is his goal, and the fundamental reason for our differing stances. Now, since no one can bear this responsibility alone, let's decide by voting and raising hands."

Half an hour is a reasonable timeframe.

The conference room was completely silent.

Nobody's a fool. The information about the Ten-Tails' split entity in this attack has been read over and over again by everyone in the past half hour.

They hoped to find evidence that the other side was just bluffing.

Because if we take advantage of the fact that you are here, we can defeat this Otsutsuki in front of us and reduce a major future enemy.

However, intelligence data shows that the countless Ten-Tails clones, along with their rapid growth and adaptability, all tell everyone that... given enough time, they will become uncontrollable.

It evolves on its own, possesses the Rinnegan, various abilities, and already has considerable strength and speed.

If the numbers increase significantly, then the entire ninja world will face destruction.

Even if it's a gentleman...

Minato Namikaze glanced at Kevin.

Conqueror's Haki is not inexhaustible. Having awakened this power, he knows very well that the key to Conqueror's Haki lies in how much will he can gather in this world, given that his name resounds throughout the ninja world.

Like him, the Fourth Hokage, and Mei Terumi, the Mizukage, both exemplify this.

Even Might Guy was able to awaken a slightly weaker version of Conqueror's Haki only because he took the countless taunts as encouragement and understood the meaning of power.

The gentleman is very strong, but his domineering aura is not limitless.

With this in mind, Minato Namikaze had already made his decision.

Half an hour passed quickly, and everyone present, except for the revolutionary army commanders and the General Political Department, voted in favor.

……

The expanded conference continued, and based on the size of each town, a portion of the garrison force was expanded from the revolutionary army base to carry out defense.

Meanwhile, the Heavenly Delivery Technique was deployed in various government offices, overseen by ninjas from the Hidden Cloud Village.

However, cooperation with Isshiki Otsutsuki requires rigorous and detailed discussion.

No one wanted to be the gun; everyone was aware of the original opposing positions.

On the human side, cooperation was only possible because of Kevin's existence.

They naturally want to use this deterrent power to its fullest extent.

As for Isshiki Otsutsuki, since the technology for creating artificial humans was already mature, he was not stingy with the fighting power of his side.

……

Meanwhile, in another dimension.

The Ten-Tails' split form, possessing the Rinnegan, forms hand seals.

The Impure World Reincarnation technique was activated, and the White Zetsu clones, used as sacrifices, began to change appearance.

Soon, a person wearing red armor appeared in the coffin.

He opened his eyes, revealing a pair of Sharingan eyes with three tomoe.

"White Zetsu?"

"Is it already the final moment? What about Nagato?"

However, the only response he received was the laughter of White Zetsu.

"Uchiha Madara, it seems that your pawn has not followed your plan and grown into the shape you wanted."

Ban's eyes narrowed as he looked at Bai Zetsu.

The lack of honorifics in his address made him realize that perhaps the situation wasn't as he thought.

The next moment, the reanimated body froze on the spot.

"Ten...tails?"

Before him, a massive body came into view.

It was filled with violent chakra, permeating the entire alternate dimension.

The Ten-Tails... has actually been summoned?

Who? Who became the Ten-Tails' Jinchūriki?

Black Zetsu? Or Nagato, or perhaps Obito Uchiha? Or perhaps Uchiha En?

"You...how dare you?"

The White Zetsu beside the Ten-Tails chuckled: "Is Lord Madara still thinking about the so-called Eye of the Moon Plan? But the Eye of the Moon Plan will turn everyone into someone like me!"

"Becoming a monster like me, I don't even know what it feels like to poop. I'm a pathetic wretch, nothing more than a tool to be used at will."

"Dreams are ultimately just dreams, merely one of the means to soothe the soul. Once the dream ends, everything ends, the world is destroyed, thus fundamentally eliminating the possibility of war, isn't that right?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Madara Uchiha leaped up and reached out to grab White Zetsu.

"What...are you saying?!"

With a roar, Madara Uchiha leaped up at near teleportation speed, only to be repelled by an invisible force.

"roar!!"

The Ten-Tails roared, and then its clones appeared one after another.

They all have human faces, and two of them even have the Rinnegan.

The appearance of the Rinnegan caused Madara Uchiha to stop his attack.

But then, a white Zetsu walked forward with a smile and formed a hand seal.

The art of reincarnation and rebirth!

Madara Uchiha's body, resurrected through the Impure World Reincarnation, was gradually restored, and the return of his younger self further enhanced his power.

Looking at his hands, which had returned to their original physical form, Madara Uchiha lowered his head and muttered to himself.

"You monsters have really been underestimated."

"Perhaps you believe that my Edo Tensei form represents my full power?"

"Or... do you think that the immortal bodies resurrected through the Impure World Reincarnation technique are actually an advantage for us?"

"Buzz..."

Blue chakra surged forth, quickly forming a blue giant: the complete Susanoo.

"White Zetsu...do you want to dance too?"

The long sword formed from chakra was suddenly drawn, but the White Zetsu below remained unmoved.

The enormous ten-tailed fox had nothing but cold indifference in its eyes.

"Swish, swish, swish..."

The two smaller ten-tailed creatures leaped up, their immense repulsive force catching the giant blade.

At the same time, the chakra that had condensed into Susanoo began to be absorbed, and at a speed visible to the naked eye, the complete Susanoo began to crumble.

It was completely absorbed from its complete form, and after a short while, it could not even maintain the defense of its ribs.

"roar!!"

The Ten-Tails roared, and its massive chakra seemed to undergo a transformation. The buzzing sound swept past Madara Uchiha, instantly changing his gaze from shock and resentment to bewilderment.

Change an individual's perception of themselves.

This is the biggest gain the Ten-Tails has made since the start of this operation.

"All the chakra on this planet originates from the Ten-Tails. Any power that is based on chakra is meaningless when facing Mother, and there's no need to even convert it."

"If there were no domineering spirit in this world, everything would become simpler."

Bai Jue exhaled.

Subsequently, under the hand seals of the White Zetsu, the powerful individuals they had collected began to revive.

The Impure World Reincarnation combined with the Rinne Rebirth technique only cost the lives of individual White Zetsu clones, but in return gained a large number of powerful ninjas from the past.

My mother said...

To break through that power called domineering aura, the first thing to break through is the human spirit and will.

There is no one more suitable than these people.

……

Since the expanded meeting, the ninja world has fallen into an eerie calm.

Over the course of two months, all the previously discussed issues concerning people's livelihoods and the economy were addressed.

The entire ninja world was thriving.

Technology is changing the way people live; new things emerge every day, and new changes occur in the world every day.

The joint Chunin Exams following the Five Kage Summit were held as scheduled.

……

As one of the five great ninja villages with two awakened Conqueror's Haki users, Konoha naturally became the first host of the Joint Chunin Exams.

Meanwhile, as the role of ninjas changes, the five great ninja villages are watching the reconnaissance team search for the location of the Ten-Tails, while also paying attention to the first Chunin Exam of the new era.

In Konoha's training ground, Obito flipped through his copy of Icha Icha Paradise, glancing occasionally at his three disciples who were busy cleaning the river.

It wasn't until the afternoon that the boulders from the pulleys on the mountain in the riverbed were cleared away.

Because of the rugged mountain roads and the river, large machinery could not come up, which became the ninja's assigned task.

After the mission was over, the three kids were exhausted.

Naruto sighed, "Didn't they say the Chunin Exams would be coming up soon? This kind of mission is... so grueling."

Sasuke remained silent, but also looked at Obito.

Clearly, he also didn't want to continue with this kind of mission.

Sakura glanced at her two teammates and then looked at her teacher, Obito.

"Smack."

The door to the Icha Icha Paradise closed, and Obito handed them three sheets of paper: "Fill them out and give them to me, then you can prepare for the Chunin Exams."
