Naruto: Naruto Hosted by the System

Corpses littered the fields, rivers of blood flowed, and ruins lay everywhere...

He closed his eyes and clenched his fists.

Obito, you killed your teacher and his wife, released the Nine-Tails to destroy Konoha, and massacred the Uchiha clan... Was all of this for the purpose of destroying Konoha?

At that moment, Kakashi secretly vowed that if he ever had the chance, he would kill Obito with his own hands and stop him from going down the wrong path.

Compared to the furious Kakashi, Naruto appeared much calmer.

The Akatsuki wants to destroy Konoha? Then I'll just kill them all.

Rather, he now has three former Akatsuki members under his command. When the former Akatsuki members fight against the current Akatsuki members, the scene will definitely be very exciting.

"Sasuke, did Obito Uchiha invite you to join the Akatsuki?" Naruto suddenly asked.

Because the Akatsuki's so-called ultimate goal still doesn't benefit Sasuke, it's not worth the deal for him.

Sasuke didn't hide anything and said frankly, "That's right. Although I haven't given him an answer yet, I must get that ultimate weapon."

Kakashi opened his eyes, and his gaze toward Sasuke was initially filled with anger, but he quickly understood why.

"Sasuke, are you planning to use that ultimate weapon for revenge?"

“No, with Itachi and Obito’s strength, I might be able to kill them on my own in the future.” Sasuke shook his head.

"But how could I possibly sleep soundly if that kind of thing were in someone else's hands?"

"And is pursuing greater power a strange thing?"

Kakashi remained silent, but he believed that a weapon capable of easily destroying a great nation should not exist in the world.

Naruto, standing to the side, felt inexplicably guilty.

Because he suddenly realized that what he was doing seemed to be somewhat similar to the Akatsuki organization.

Everyone's collecting tailed beasts, everyone's pursuing world peace, and Naruto has even destroyed the Land of Lightning...

Of course, Naruto wasn't that extreme; he didn't kill a single civilian in the Land of Lightning, so he still couldn't empathize with those lunatics in the Akatsuki organization.

"System, do you think the Akatsuki's ultimate weapon might be the same thing as our complete version of the Oni-Garuru Technique? Both require Tailed Beast Chakra."

[It's unlikely, because the complete version of the Demon Beast Technique was developed by me. Even if the Akatsuki had contact with Hiruko, given the Demon Beast Technique at that time, they might not even have associated it with tailed beast chakra.]

Furthermore, the complete version of the Demon Sprout Technique requires Ashura's chakra and Indra's chakra. One exists within the host's body, and the other is highly likely to exist within Uchiha Sasuke's body. The Akatsuki organization couldn't possibly know this.

At this moment, Nine-Tailed Fox interjected, "I think I know what that ultimate weapon is."

"Huh? Kurama, you actually knew that?" Naruto was somewhat surprised.

"Hmph, I've lived for over a thousand years, don't underestimate me." Kurama snorted, and the nine tails behind him swayed involuntarily.

"Getting back to the main point, the Akatsuki organization most likely wants to revive the Ten-Tails."

"Ten-Tails? What's that? Were there originally ten tailed beasts?"

"The old man of the Six Paths once told us that when the Ten-Tails is fully revived, it means that the end of this world is coming."

"That's amazing?" Naruto was somewhat surprised.

Kurama nodded and continued to explain, "The Ten-Tails is the aggregate of the chakra of us tailed beasts. It is the progenitor of chakra and is at least as powerful as all nine tailed beasts combined."

"Huh? It doesn't sound that impressive?"

"..." Nine Lama was ashamed.

These tailed beasts, once considered calamities, are now losing face more and more.

Naruto is one thing, but how come the Akatsuki organization can so easily use the chakra of three tailed beasts? Are they all so lax?

[Don't be careless. If the Ten-Tails' resurrection is like the complete Demon Sprout Technique, it will cause a qualitative change in a person's chakra, reaching the Six Paths level. That would be far stronger than all nine tailed beasts combined.]

"Yeah, you're right." Naruto agreed with the system's words.

Only Nine-Lama seemed to feel looked down upon, and he sulked.

Emerging from their inner world, Naruto, Kakashi, and Sasuke briefly explained the Ten-Tails situation, naturally concealing anything related to the system.

“In that case, perhaps we should warn other countries to protect their tailed beasts,” Kakashi suggested.

Naruto shook his head: "Kakashi-sensei, there's no such thing as being a thief for a thousand days and guarding against thieves for a thousand days."

"Moreover, given the strength of other major powers, they are probably no match for the Akatsuki."

"So, Naruto, what are your plans...?"

Naruto smiled slightly and picked up Samehada from the ground.

"My plan is naturally to strike at the heart of the matter, launch a powerful attack, and wipe out the Akatsuki organization in one fell swoop."

Chapter 105 Naruto is about to reach the Six Paths threshold

Naruto picked up Samehada and felt the abundant chakra within it, which was almost overflowing. He couldn't help but think to himself: Kisame Hoshigaki's weapon was just sent over as a container. Does he really have no objection?

However, Naruto also knew that Obito Uchiha definitely didn't want him to go to the Akatsuki's headquarters to retrieve chakra, so he could only make do with Kisame Hoshigaki.

Naruto then entered his inner world and asked the system with a little excitement, "System, have we collected all the tailed beast chakra now? Can we begin the ritual?"

The conditions for completing the Demon Beast Technique are as follows: 1. Collect the chakra of all nine tailed beasts; 2. Achieve sufficient compatibility with the chakra of the nine tailed beasts; 3. Use Ashura chakra and Indra chakra as fuel to activate the ritual.

[The host has only fulfilled the first condition. The second condition requires sufficient compatibility of the One-Tailed, Two-Tailed, and Nine-Tailed chakras. The third condition is still missing Indra's chakra.]

[Indra's chakra can be obtained when the conditions are right, during the transplantation of Hashirama's cells into Sasuke Uchiha. The second condition requires the host to use Tailed Beast chakra extensively in battle.]

Naruto pursed his lips, knowing full well that reaching the level of the Six Paths was no easy feat.

However, the second condition is easy to handle. It's just a matter of fighting, right? We can just go straight to the Akatsuki and take them down.

Of course, just in case, Naruto should at least first embed the newly acquired Four-Tails, Six-Tails, and Seven-Tails chakra into the complete Oni-Garara Technique within his body.

Although he didn't know exactly how powerful the legendary Sage's Eyes were, Naruto figured it couldn't be too outrageous.

At the very least, he shouldn't be able to defeat a major power on his own and then deal with other major powers that want to take advantage of the situation. Otherwise, Pain should have stepped forward himself to become the ultimate weapon to deter the ninja world.

Before absorbing chakra, Naruto approached Orochimaru.

"Lord Hokage." Kakuzu greeted him politely as he entered.

Naruto nodded in response and was about to continue walking inside when he stopped and said to him, "You don't need to stay here. Go and bring the savings over to be confiscated, then find someone named Shikamaru to arrange something for you."

"Yes," Kakuzu replied respectfully, without showing the slightest dissatisfaction.

Although he felt bad about losing his savings of nearly a hundred years, Kakuzu was even more afraid that Naruto would kill him directly.

Money can be earned again.

After saying that, Naruto even created a shadow clone to accompany him.

After doing all this, Naruto went inside.

The first thing that catches the eye is Hidan, who has been divided into many pieces.

Knowing Orochimaru's experimental style, Naruto simply didn't let Kakuzu completely sew Hidan back together, so only his head remained intact.

However, the only intact head is now being used by Orochimaru, who is conducting various experiments on it with great interest.

Upon seeing Naruto enter, Hidan, who had been groaning in pain, immediately yelled, "You bastard who insulted the Jashin-sama, how dare you show your face here... Ouch, ouch, ouch!"

Hidan has killed many people thanks to the so-called immortality bestowed upon him by the evil god and the ability to possess the blood of the Death God. So far, he has only failed twice.

One time was Kakuzu, because the opponent had five hearts. Hidan didn't care about that; if it really mattered, he could just kill him five times.

However, Naruto, with Hidan's abilities, is truly unkillable; no matter how many times he attacks, it's useless.

Therefore, Hidan now deeply hates Naruto.

Orochimaru, who was focused on cutting Hidan's head, turned to look at Naruto upon hearing his words, stuck out his tongue like a forked tongue, licked his lips, and waved in greeting.

"Now you don't need Sasuke to break the balance and distract you anymore?" Naruto asked curiously.

Orochimaru's lips twitched. "I'm more used to the 'Hatsuhi' now, because Sasuke-kun used it on me many times afterward."

"Don't worry, you have someone with you now. The other person is still in the first stage of adapting, and is probably still crying out in pain right now."

Orochimaru was taken aback upon hearing this, then burst into laughter, as if he had learned something that pleased him greatly.

After the joke, Orochimaru didn't dwell on the topic for long, and didn't even ask who the person was. Instead, he patted Hidan on the head.

"It hasn't been that long since I last saw him, and Naruto-kun has already surprised me again. He wasn't even a member of Akatsuki back then."

"Speaking of which, aren't you pursuing immortality? Why don't you join this guy's cult and worship that evil god, so you can become immortal?" Naruto said with a half-smile.

Upon hearing this, Hidan disregarded his own miserable state and immediately tried to preach to Orochimaru, but Orochimaru silenced him by covering his mouth.

“That won’t be necessary. I don’t want to be cut into pieces for people to study. Besides, in a way, wouldn’t the 'Hatsuhi' achieve the same effect?” Orochimaru shook his head firmly.

The immortality he desired was not this ugly form.

“Speaking of which, if you don’t atone for your sins, who knows if the healing effect of the Calamity Sun will be able to resist aging? By the time you’ve been burning for hundreds of years, you might have gotten used to the burning sensation and no longer feel the pain.” Naruto suddenly became a little curious.

Logically speaking, the curse would continue even after Sasuke's death, so it might actually achieve that effect.

"Resisting aging is possible, but not feeling pain is impossible." As someone who has experienced it firsthand, Orochimaru is quite qualified to speak on this matter.

"The day of the calamity is very special. I haven't found any way to make the pain go away. In fact, even now I feel pain from the inside out, from my flesh to my soul, and I want to die," Orochimaru said calmly.

"It's just that as the duration has increased, my mental strength has improved, and I can do other things while resisting the pain."

“Sasuke should be quite happy, because the other person who was afflicted by the Calamity Sun is his enemy. Knowing that the other person can't get rid of this pain no matter what, Sasuke might even laugh out loud,” Naruto said expressionlessly.

He has no sympathy for people like Orochimaru and Obito Uchiha.

Orochimaru smiled helplessly and then changed the subject.

"What does Naruto-kun want to figure out from this guy? The secret of his immortality?"

Naruto shook his head: "To be precise, it should be about the evil god behind him."

"An evil god? After defeating the Grim Reaper, is Naruto going to take on an evil god again?" Orochimaru became somewhat interested.

He still remembered the last time Naruto fought the Grim Reaper. At that time, the Grim Reaper was even strengthened by the Sage of Six Paths, but he was still no match for Naruto.

"Pretty much. The main goal is to find the Sage of Six Paths and wrest control of the Pure Land from him."

Naruto immediately instructed, "That's why I want you to investigate what the evil god's blessing is all about, how immortality is created, and what the relationship is between these gods and ghosts and the Sage of Six Paths."

Orochimaru helplessly spread his hands, "Naruto-kun, you think too highly of me."
