The Devil of Konoha: Starting as a Medical Ninja

Just as Hongzhi's thought crossed his mind, Zabuza, who was patrolling in Kirigakure, felt a series of tremors coming from the Executioner's Blade in his hand. The next second, a hole appeared in the center of his body, and a slender ninja sword pierced through him and disappeared from his sight.

Following closely behind was the Executioner's Blade in his hand. Having experienced what had happened before, Zabuza immediately collapsed to the ground. The next second, the remaining three ninja swords flew past Zabuza.

"What exactly is going on?"

Zabuza's voice was a little hoarse. Who could have imagined such a thing!

The ninja swords flew away, something unprecedented in the entire Hidden Mist Village. Even with the existence of the summoning scroll, those ninja swords should have been summoned away directly, not flown away!

Five ninja swords appeared neatly around Hongzhi. Among them, Hongzhi was most satisfied with the ninja sword that looked like a needle, but now such a weapon could only be regarded as a collector's item.

With a wave of his hand, Hongzhi hung the ninja swords in the Ice Palace, where the two swords he had originally acquired were located. This meant that all seven ninja swords of Kirigakure were now gathered, though this was of little significance.

"If you go back now and freeze Zabuza, there might still be a chance to save him."

Noticing Haku's expression, Hiroji smiled and said, "Speaking of which, Zabuza is really unlucky. He was caught in the path of the ninja sword flying back. Of course, he wasn't the only unlucky one, but he was the unlucky one that Haku cared about the most."

What is your purpose?

Upon hearing this, Haku did not immediately return, but instead coldly asked, "A guy who was supposed to be sealed away along with Kaguya Otsutsuki has suddenly appeared and is even collecting tailed beasts. This is definitely not good news for the entire ninja world."

"Of course, it's to become an angel."

Hongzhi answered with a smile, then vanished without a trace. Bai's face turned somewhat ugly upon receiving this answer. He believed that Hongzhi was completely deceiving him, but at this moment he could not find any evidence to prove it.

There was no disturbance with the wild Six-Tails and Seven-Tails, but the location of the Nine-Tails made Hongzhi feel a bit strange. That guy was actually in Konoha, or rather, that guy was directly inside Naruto Uzumaki's body.

This time, Naruto Uzumaki was not recognized by Kurama, at least not before he obtained the power of the Six Paths. But now that Kurama is inside Naruto, it is quite unexpected for Hongzhi.

However, it was just an accident; Naruto Uzumaki alone couldn't cause any real trouble.

"All the tailed beasts have disappeared."

From a house behind Konoha, Kurama's calm voice came, and Naruto Uzumaki, who was still refining chakra, immediately opened his eyes.

Although the Five Kage Summit is underway, he, who only possesses power but lacks experience, can only stay in Konoha and guard the village.

The back mountain of Konoha is where he lives now, and the house next door is where his parents live. Although they are both busy now, this can be said to be the life that Naruto once dreamed of.

The only regret is that the ninjas are in a mess right now, and since a few hours ago, the Nine-Tails, which had entered his body to hibernate after the great battle, has awakened and brought him the first news that the One-Tailed Shukaku has completely disappeared.

Subsequently, the aura of the tailed beasts would completely disappear every once in a while. So far, only the Nine-Tails has not disappeared. In other words, the being that caused all the tailed beasts to disappear may have come to Konoha.

bang bang bang~

The sound of knocking slowly came from the door. Naruto Uzumaki was a little surprised. It seemed that no ninja in the entire Hidden Leaf Village was idle except for him. The fact that someone suddenly came to his door was particularly strange. Under such circumstances, Naruto Uzumaki was naturally very vigilant.

Despite his caution, Naruto slowly opened the door, only to be met with a face that was once so familiar, as if it had transported him back to the time when they fought in the Origin Sphere.

"Senior Hongzhi?!"

An indescribable surprise arrived. Although he had learned a lot, Naruto still admired Hiroji. Seeing Hiroji, who was supposed to be sealed away with Kaguya Otsutsuki, suddenly appear, Naruto was overjoyed.

"The Otsutsuki clan has arrived..."

Chapter 476 is just to remind you.

These unexpected words turned Naruto Uzumaki into a meme. Having experienced the events surrounding Kaguya Otsutsuki, he naturally knew what the Otsutsuki clan truly meant—a force even Kaguya Otsutsuki feared.

If those Otsutsuki that Black Zetsu mentioned really came, could the current ninja world resist them?

Although many people have been resurrected, no one in the entire ninja world has yet been able to rival him, and the fact that he and Sasuke Uchiha were able to seal Kaguya Otsutsuki was all thanks to Hiroji's existence.

But now someone even more terrifying than Kaguya Otsutsuki has arrived?

With Sasuke Uchiha crippled and the Sage of Six Paths completely gone, can they possibly defeat the being that Kaguya Otsutsuki feared?

"Wait... how did you get out?"

Naruto Uzumaki, considering all this, suddenly froze. Back then, Hiroji was sealed away along with Kaguya Otsutsuki. If he successfully emerged, it would mean that Kaguya Otsutsuki had also successfully escaped.

Could it be that Kaguya Otsutsuki was the one collecting the Tailed Beasts?

"I didn't come out; I just never went in in the first place."

Faced with this question, Hongzhi smiled and spoke. Before Naruto Uzumaki could even feel happy about the explanation, he found a chain piercing his body and binding the Nine-Tails inside.

"How is this going?"

Naruto asked in astonishment. This sudden turn of events made his scalp tingle. Although losing half of the Nine-Tails wouldn't kill him, Hiroji's merciless attack was quite surprising to Naruto.

"It's necessary for the experiment."

As Hongzhi spoke casually, he gave Naruto Uzumaki a gentle push, sending him flying. The building collapsed instantly, and Naruto was thrown from the back of Konoha and landed on the roof of the Hokage's office building.

The room was left with only a cluster of orange-red chakra phantoms, the other half of the long-lost chakra. But with the influx of natural energy, the chakra completely disappeared and transformed into the Nine-Tails' original essence, which was enveloped by natural energy.

"Now it's completely perfect."

Hongzhi muttered to himself, then directly absorbed the source into his body. Within the illusory soul space, the nine tomoe, which were originally not perfect, turned blood red, signifying the complete absorption of the source of all the tailed beasts.

After completing all this, Hongzhi slowly walked out of Naruto's room. Because of the commotion, many people had gathered there, and Hongzhi saw some familiar faces.

For example, there's Sakura Haruno, who's wary yet harboring resentment; Sasuke Uchiha, who looks completely bewildered; Rock Lee, whose body is already emitting blue steam; and Kakashi Hatake, the teacher of Team 7.

"You're still alive?"

Kakashi spoke with a solemn expression. Currently, Obito Uchiha is imprisoned in the Anbu. Based on his words, it can be concluded that the "Obito Uchiha" who once caused headaches for Konoha and even the entire ninja world was actually Hiroji in disguise.

"You were the one who was instantly killed by Lightning Release, not me. You're all alive because of me, and now you're preparing to attack me. How ironic..."

Hongzhi maintained his smile, but Kakashi was unusually solemn. This guy, who could cut off Sasuke Uchiha and Naruto Uzumaki's legs for research the moment they met, even if he seemed harmless before, after learning about his deeds, no one could remain calm in front of him.

What is your purpose?

Kakashi asked this question again: a guy who was supposed to be sealed away with Kaguya Otsutsuki has reappeared, and as soon as he appeared, he made Naruto fly directly from his house to the center of the village. This is definitely not a friendly thing to do.

"Just to remind you, the Otsutsuki are coming soon. If you want to know more about the Otsutsuki, go to the moon and look for them. There is power there that is beyond your imagination."

After leaving behind this message, Hongzhi prepared to depart. If he remembered correctly, the two members of the Hyuga clan were still on the moon. In that case, he could have Naruto Uzumaki rescue them.

"stop!"

Behind Hongzhi, the pixelated tunnel opened by Kamui had appeared, but just as he was about to step into it, a cold voice came. Hongzhi turned his head and saw that one eye was a three-tomoe Sharingan, but the other eye was that of Uchiha Obito, who was perfectly normal.

Beside him was Uchiha Sasuke, whose eyes were all ordinary. The person speaking was not Uchiha Obito, whom Hongzhi saw at first glance, but Uchiha Sasuke.

At that moment, Naruto Uzumaki, now cloaked in chakra, appeared directly beside Sasuke Uchiha.

"That ability must belong to Kaguya Otsutsuki, right? How are you able to use it?"

Two questions came out of Sasuke Uchiha's mouth, and Kakashi's face turned dark upon hearing them. Combining this with the information he had gathered earlier, it was highly likely that Kaguya Otsutsuki's abilities had already been taken over by Hiroji.

This is not good news; in fact, it's the worst news imaginable, so bad that Kakashi doesn't even dare to think about it.

"What you think is how it is."

Hongzhi answered the question with a smile, then directly entered the Gate of Divine Might, leaving Konoha forever.

"Moon?!"

After Hongzhi left, Kakashi pondered the moon that Hongzhi had mentioned. Before the Fourth Shinobi World War, everyone thought the moon was normal, but that changed with the discovery of Kaguya Otsutsuki and the Sage of Six Paths.

The moon became the object of sealing Kaguya Otsutsuki, and the younger brother of the Sage of Six Paths, who was also the ancestor of the Hyuga clan, moved to the moon.

This is the information Kakashi has gathered. As for the rest, he knows nothing. However, since Hiroji mentioned the moon, it means that there must be something on the moon, and it is likely to be something very terrifying.

As for the Otsutsuki clan, it is indeed something that the five great ninja villages want to collect information about. Now that they have obtained information that the Otsutsuki clan exists on the moon, they will naturally not let it go.

"He seized Kaguya Otsutsuki's power and successfully collected all the tailed beasts."

While Kakashi was focused on the moon, Sasuke Uchiha looked at Naruto Uzumaki with dim eyes, realizing that his strength was only so-so after losing the Rinnegan.

If that guy wanted to activate Infinite Tsukuyomi again, no one in the entire ninja world could stop him. To undo Infinite Tsukuyomi, one needs the Rinnegan, and right now, it's a pipe dream for Konoha to even have a pair of Sharingan.

The most tragic thing is that the Uchiha clan was resurrected without the Sharingan, and the Hyuga clan was resurrected without the Byakugan. The only Sharingan now belongs to Obito Uchiha, but having those eyes makes no difference whatsoever.

"No one on our side can stop him if he wants to activate Infinite Tsukuyomi."

Naruto Uzumaki also spoke bitterly, saying that there wasn't even one Rinnegan in the entire ninja world, so trying to break the Infinite Tsukuyomi was simply a pipe dream. Moreover, it seemed that the last time the Infinite Tsukuyomi was broken, it was that guy who broke it directly.

"I'm planning to go to the moon."

Naruto Uzumaki spoke bitterly, "Since there's no way to break the Infinite Tsukuyomi, perhaps we could try destroying the moon. Besides, there seems to be something special on the moon, or maybe that guy Hiroji wants them to go to the moon."

Chapter 477 The Secret on the Moon

In the palace on the moon, Hiroji slowly appeared. Logically, Hinata Hyuga and Hanabi Hyuga should be here, but Hiroji did not sense their presence in the palace.

Upon leaving the palace, Hongzhi saw a dense array of tombstones. The once empty area had been transformed into a cemetery, where descendants of Hamura were buried.

Have you discovered anything left behind by Hamura's descendants?

Seeing this, Hongzhi was somewhat puzzled. Losing the Byakugan did not mean the disappearance of the bloodline. On the contrary, because of the Tenseigan, Hinata and Hanabi's bloodlines were closer and might even surpass the bloodline that Hamura inherited from Kaguya.

Under such circumstances, finding the backup plan left by the Otsutsuki main family seems to be no problem at all.

While Hongzhi was still observing the area, two figures slowly walked towards them. Without a doubt, these were Hinata Hyuga and Hanabi Hyuga, each carrying a jar in their hands.

Obviously, it couldn't contain alcohol; the most likely contents are ashes.

Or rather, bones.

"My sister's eyes!"

The moment she saw Hiroji, Hinata Hanabi became wary. Although she knew she couldn't possibly win, she still prepared to attack, which was something Hiroji was concerned about.

Hinata, on the other hand, did not react at all. She continued walking on her own, placing the jar in her hand into the deep pit that had been dug before slowly looking at Hiroji.

"Those eyes seem to be very sharp."

Hinata Hyuga spoke calmly, explaining that while she was trapped here, she went out to investigate and discovered the truth behind the deaths of the Uchiha clan members. With nothing else to do, she took the opportunity to bury the skeleton that had left behind a cluster of memories.

Eventually, things spiraled out of control, leading to the current situation. Staying here without any real danger would drive her crazy sooner or later, so she had to find something to do.

"If you want to return to Konoha, ninjas will arrive here in a few days. Of course, you can also choose to leave with me..."

Hiroji glanced casually at the wary Hyuga Hanabi, then slowly turned and entered the dark passage. This time, the passage led to Mount Myōboku.

Orochimaru, Karin, and Konan are all there. In addition, there are several other graves, the newest of which is that of Kudo Yuya. After waking up from the Infinite Tsukuyomi, she stayed on Mount Myōboku for half a year before dying completely.

Because of the seal, the souls did not return to the Pure Land. The other graves belong to Nagato, Yahiko, and Shibata Rie; these are beings who were not resurrected.

Orochimaru and Karin were training, while Konan had completely transformed into a gravedigger, guarding the graves of Yahiko and Nagato.
