Narration system starting from Konoha

“I told you, if you mess with me I’ll beat Kankuro. It seems you don’t care about this younger brother. If you’re not afraid of Kankuro being beaten to death by me, you can continue your actions.”

Temari's expression changed immediately, and she quickly went to Kankuro and helped him up.

"Kankuro, how are you?"

At this point, Kankuro was no longer human; his entire face was swollen, reddish-purple, and even blood was seeping from his face. He was in a semi-comatose state.

Temari was terrified, fearing that Uchiha Sora would kill Kankuro, her own brother. She didn't even dare to think of cursing Uchiha Sora, for fear that the narrator would reveal it.

"Hmph, you're quite sensible. As a ninja, you should be prepared to die in battle. You've only been beaten half to death. In my opinion, you should find an honest man to marry. Being a ninja isn't suitable for you. You don't have the awareness of a ninja," Kong said.

"Kankuro is unconscious. I'd like to rest here for a while until he wakes up before continuing our journey," Temari said.

Kong shook his head and said, "Two choices: either you carry him on your back, or you kill him and leave him here. I don't want to carry a burden, and I won't give him any time to rest."

Now you are prisoners of war, and prisoners of war must be mentally prepared for that.

Temari gritted her teeth; she wouldn't abandon Kankuro. She said, "I'll support him."

Temari felt despair. She dared not show her dissatisfaction, and she didn't even dare harbor any resentment in her heart.

Temari helped him up, and Kankuro had Uchiha Sora throw the puppet on his back into the forest.

The only sound in the quiet forest was the sound of footsteps.

Temari, whose ribs had already been broken by Uchiha's air kick, was now supporting the semi-conscious Kankuro, her brows furrowing with every step she took.

Soon his forehead was covered in sweat.

"With the death of the Kazekage, your status in Sunagakure has dropped significantly. However, you are still the daughters of the previous Kazekage."

"I've thought of a great way to humiliate Sunagakure. Would you like to hear it?" Uchiha Sora said with ill intent.

Temari's face turned pale with fright. As a ninja, she knew the tragic fate of many female ninjas after being captured. Uchiha Sora was simply a demon. Temari even had suicidal thoughts.

Uchiha Sora slapped Kankuro across the face and said, "You're cursing me in your mind again. You never learn."

Kankuro collapsed to the ground, unconscious.

Temari quickly helped Kankuro up, not daring to say or think anything, for fear that Kankuro might have another accident.

"Tsk, your thoughts are too dirty. I haven't even said anything yet and you're already thinking about certain things," Uchiha Sora said.

"what you up to."

Uchiha Sora has become Temari's nightmare. Temari dares not have any bad thoughts, her heart trembling with fear, terrified of hearing words that would bring her despair.

Uchiha Sora nodded secretly. Temari's emotions were fluctuating intensely, but she controlled her thoughts well and did not let the narrator reveal any unpleasant words.

"I just want you to persuade those stubborn Sand Village ninja to surrender. The Sand Village is now at its last gasp."

If the ninja world hadn't been free of war for so many years, Sunagakure would have been removed from the list of the Five Great Ninja Villages long ago. The Fourth Kazekage really couldn't see his own limitations and dared to cooperate with Orochimaru.

Now that he's lost his life, Sunagakure will also suffer heavy losses this time.

Temari breathed a sigh of relief. She had thought that Uchiha Sora would hire some homeless people from Konoha to humiliate her in order to achieve his goal of insulting Sunagakure.

"Snapped."

A crisp sound rang out in the forest, and Kankuro was once again knocked to the ground, lying motionless like a dead pig.

"Why did you hit Kankuro again? I didn't do anything to you." Temari quickly helped Kankuro up and checked the injuries on his face.

Cracks ran across his purplish-red face, from which blood seeped, flowing down his cheeks and neck.

Temari was so heartbroken that tears streamed down her face.

"Hmph, I am a proper Konoha ninja who has mastered the Will of Fire. I am not scum. The kind of person you are talking about is utter scum."

True ninjas disdain doing such things.

It's rare to see Uchiha Sora being serious; it's like the sun has risen in the west. Temari's worries are somewhat unnecessary; a truly magnanimous ninja wouldn't stoop to such things.

Temari breathed a sigh of relief, suddenly feeling that Uchiha Sora wasn't so bad after all. However, the thought of Kankuro instantly dispelled any bad feelings she had.

The soft sunlight shone on the three of them, making the originally spacious final venue look dilapidated.

The ground was littered with the corpses of ninjas from the three villages of Otosuna and Konoha.

There were also Sound Ninja and Sand Ninja prisoners being held captive by Konoha ninja.

"It seems the battle is over, and the moment to decide your fate has arrived."

On the roof of the arena, many powerful Konoha members gathered to collect the remains of the Third Hokage.

Uchiha Sora found Ibiki, the person in charge at the scene.

"Senior Ibiki, I have captured the Kazekage's daughter and son, and now I hand them over to you."

Ibiki glanced at Temari and Kankuro, especially Kankuro's miserable appearance, nodded, and said:

“Sunagakure has surrendered completely, and the Kazekage’s children are considered important prisoners. You did a good job.”

Ibiki underestimated Uchiha Sora. He never expected that the ninja he had previously looked down upon could play such a significant role. Truly worthy of the Uchiha clan.

Sora secretly curled his lip. He'd heard Ibiki was the head of the torture department, but his judgment was really terrible. How could he, such an excellent ninja as himself, not see through him? Calling him blind wouldn't be an exaggeration.

Sora watched as Ibiki's face grew increasingly pale, then vanished from the spot in the blink of an eye.

Ibiki gritted his teeth: "Uchiha Sora, you'd better not show your face in front of me."

Chapter Eighty-Nine: Imprisonment

The dense forest was reduced to ruins, and the corpses scattered everywhere showed how fierce the battle was.

Shikamaru and Kiba helped Naruto along, while Sakura supported Sasuke as they walked slowly forward.

A number of Konoha ninjas were gathered around, escorting the surrendered Sound Ninja and Sunagakure ninjas.

This is the battlefield where Shukaku is being besieged. Gaara, who is half-conscious, is being carried on the back of a Sand Ninja who has surrendered.

"Hey, Sasuke, Naruto, you two are really in a sorry state. I never expected to be beaten so badly by a little Gaara."

I heard that Sasuke even learned Kakashi's Chidori, yet he still lost to Gaara.

Kong leaned leisurely against a big tree, almost as if he had a handful of sunflower seeds in his hand.

"Kong, if you don't know, don't talk nonsense."

Naruto wanted to explain how difficult the battle against Shukaku was and how powerful Shukaku was, but he didn't know how to say it.

Sasuke was so disheartened by Naruto that he ignored Uchiha Sora. He'll definitely teach this disobedient younger brother a lesson once he recovers.

"Sakura, let me help Sasuke. After all, you're a girl, and there are many things that are inconvenient for you," Sora said as she walked over.

Sakura said awkwardly, "No need, it's not far from here to Konoha Hospital, I'm not tired."

[How dare Uchiha Sora ruin my plans! If Sakura weren't outmatched, she'd beat him up right now. What a clueless bastard! She finally got a chance to get close to Sasuke, how could she give it up so easily?]

A barrage of gazes, almost tangible, shot over. Many people hadn't known Sakura for long, yet they were surprised to find her to be a woman with a gentle exterior but a fierce heart.

"Don't listen to the narrator's nonsense. This is all the narrator's talk. What does it have to do with me, Haruno Sakura?"

Sakura wished she could disappear into a crack in the ground. The narrator was so awful; he actually revealed her thoughts!

Uchiha Sora took Sasuke from Sakura and pushed her aside.

"Looks like you suffered a loss at Gaara's hands, while Gaara was defeated by Naruto." Uchiha Sora didn't forget to rub salt into Sasuke's wounds.

It's still more satisfying to fleece Sasuke.

Sasuke turned his head to the side, not wanting to talk to Uchiha Sora.

The team moved slowly forward, carrying many wounded soldiers to Konoha Hospital.

Sasuke's injuries weren't serious; he was mostly just depleting his chakra. He was quickly bandaged up and then taken home by Sora.

Pushing open the living room door, you can still see the many incubators used to raise mice stored in the living room.

Uchiha Sora's experiment was only halfway done.

Sasuke looked at the completely transformed living room and said, "What kind of nonsense are you researching now? You're always neglecting your duties."

Uchiha Sora didn't bother arguing with Sasuke; how could a mere mortal understand the value of his research?

Uchiha Sora moved all the incubators into his bedroom and stacked them together.

The system shop had previously displayed a technique similar to the Yin Seal that he had researched, and now it was called "Uchiha Maniac Laughter."

Now, Sora plans to continue researching the topic of absorbing chakra.

In the dimly lit secret room, the original Four Heavenly Kings had become three: Shimura Danzo, Utatane Koharu, and Mitokado Homura.

"That beast Orochimaru dared to collude with Sunagakure to attack Konoha and even killed Hiruzen."

[Danzo was filled with rage, wishing he could tear Orochimaru to pieces, but it was all an act. Orochimaru had even met with Danzo before arriving in Konoha. Danzo was eager for Hiruzen Sarutobi to die so he could become Hokage.]

Danzo was dumbfounded. The narrator had actually exposed his plot right from the start, leaving Danzo with nothing to say.

"The narrator is talking nonsense. We are comrades who have gone through hardships together. How could I hope for Hiruzen's death? After all these years, don't you two still believe me?" Danzo tried his best to defend himself.

Mitomon Homura said, "Danzo, stop pretending. The Sand Village and Sound Village have invaded, but we haven't seen a single Root ninja move out."

Is there anything more important than the village that the Root needs to deal with? Danzo, I expect you to give us both an explanation today.

The roots belong to Konoha, not to Danzo's private army.

Koharu nodded and said, "Besides, you're too old to be Hokage. We should give younger people a chance. There are people in Konoha who are more suitable than you right now."

How could Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu believe Danzo's lies? From childhood, they knew Danzo too well. He was fine with dirty work, but taking charge of Konoha would only lead the village into the abyss.

The two preferred Jiraiya to take over because Danzo was too ruthless. Even if Jiraiya took control of the Hokage, he wouldn't easily turn against them; at most, they would have a few minor arguments on some disagreements.

Furthermore, Danzo had such a bad reputation in the village that no ninja had a good impression of him; the Jonin trust vote alone was enough to eliminate Danzo.

Danzo's face turned ashen. He said, "Flame, Koharu, since you don't support me, I will obtain the Hokage position through my own methods."

Now that Hiruzen is dead, only two of his comrades can stop him. We can imprison them and release them once he becomes Hokage.

Mitokado Yan and Utatane Koharu shook their heads in disappointment.

Mitomon Homura said, "Danzo, we originally wanted to leave you a way out, but we didn't expect you to take such a risk and continue to be so stubborn."

The area is now surrounded by the Anbu. You will stay here and reflect on your actions until a new Hokage is chosen.
