He was in Konoha, exuding an aura of dominance.

Having one's life threatened is another matter.

So it all comes down to that stupid woman, Kaguya!

How dare they ambush me!

That's bad enough, but after successfully launching a sneak attack, they were actually outmaneuvered by the people of this planet. It's incredibly stupid!

He didn't even dare to imagine how much ridicule would befall them if the clan found out about the specific situation here.

But that's all in the past.

He never expected that he would encounter a new body whose bloodline was awakening in this barren world.

It's as if the day of resurrection is already upon us.

Just as he was beginning to indulge in the fantasy of replanting the Divine Tree after his resurrection, breaking the moon, dragging out Kaguya, that bitch, and beating her up before making her fulfill her sacrificial role.

thump.

A crisp sound was drowned out by the lively and noisy voices not far away.

"Great head!"

A very strange compliment rang in my ears.

Looking in the direction from which the sound came, Cixian saw a handsome boy holding a wooden mallet, his expression as if he were admiring some kind of rare artifact.

Wu Shixian glared back: "What are you looking at? Haven't you ever seen a person before, you stinky out-of-towner?"

Jigen frowned, his primal instincts as an Otsutsuki almost bursting forth, but he reacted instantly and slammed on the brakes.

wrong!

How did this guy suddenly appear next to me?

Even if I'm not in a good state right now, it doesn't mean just anyone can get close to me!

Having figured this out, he focused his attention and looked at Yu Ge of the Fifty Strings with eyes that seemed to pierce through them.

One glance lasts a lifetime.

In his eyes, if Fifty Strings were within sight, he would be a bright, visible individual; but once he was out of sight, he would become part of the village.

It was as if he himself was Konoha.

To blend into nature, the highest form of disguise is always the simplest and most unadorned.

This is something that can only be accomplished by mobilizing natural energy and performing precise operations. He has been in this world for thousands of years, and there are very few people who can do this. Even those he had seen before could not get this close to him, and they only noticed him when they made a move against him.

In the present day, there is only one person in Konoha who can do this.

'Could he be Yu Ge of Fifty Strings?'

Having already made up his mind, he asked, "You."

thump.

Cixian frowned, suppressing his anger.

thump.

"..."

To hell with it!

"What exactly do you want?!"

He stared at the fifty strings with hostility.

For a thousand years, even in his most wretched state, he had never been bullied like this. Don't they have any manners at all?

Do you even know the importance of respecting elders and the great Otsutsuki?

As expected, the people of the ninja world are all barbaric primitives. After I am resurrected, I will plant the Divine Tree as quickly as possible and use my vast knowledge to smash this planet to pieces!

Getting back to the point, he suddenly saw a powerful figure who could manipulate natural energy, and he secretly became more vigilant.

The Otsutsuki clan has extremely high resistance to ninjutsu. They can withstand most ninjutsu without taking damage, except for the extremely fast-moving types. The natural energy of the ninja world is the only force that can truly harm them.

While you may look down on the natives, you should still be wary if you encounter someone who can breach your defenses.

Moreover, even if he doesn't admit it on the surface, he has to acknowledge it in his heart. In his current state, it would be difficult for him to fight against a major ninja village, let alone the strongest ninja village in the ninja world.

Let's avoid the limelight for now.

thump.

"You stinking outsiders, you don't even know to pay protection money when you come to Konoha?" Jigen's face darkened, and he almost lost control.

'Wow, he's incredibly patient. Was Isshiki Otsutsuki always this patient?'

He remembered that the man was arrogant, cruel, and merciless, and that he was polite to non-enemies, with humor being nothing more than a hypocritical politeness to save time and avoid trouble.

It's nothing like me; I'm honest and reliable, care for my companions, look after the weak, and bombard the powerful.

"My friend, if I have offended you in any way, please tell me."

“You’re blocking my shop,” Igogami said, pointing to the izakaya next door.

This thing really is his store, but he's rented it out to someone else to do business.

“…I’m sorry.” Cixian’s lips twitched, finding it absurd.

What kind of mess is this?

With the intention of temporarily avoiding direct confrontation, he decisively chose to slip away.

Since we've already obtained information about an awakening Otsutsuki bloodline descendant here, we'll take a step back for now and wait for further developments.

It would be a losing proposition to force a conflict with a powerful being who could injure or even kill this body.

[An invasive species doesn't even greet the master of the Will of Domination? Heh, you stinking outsider.]

Congratulations on your successful acquisition...

As Ishigaki watched his decisive departure, he rubbed his chin.

'They're quite resilient; it's a pity they should have hit harder.'

Unfortunately, I didn't have a watermelon in my hand.

Just then, a dark shadow flashed, and Sakumo Hatake landed steadily. He glanced casually in that direction, looked at Igarashi, and gave him a meaningful look.

"I need to talk to you about something."

After walking a certain distance and making sure the surroundings were safe, he dared to ask, "Was that you just now?"

"A stinky out-of-towner."

Sakumo Hatake understood.

Ordinary people don't even get to be described as having fifty strings.

If someone is from out of town, then they have to be from out of town.

I just don't know which "outside the country" they're talking about. The person's clothes and appearance suggest the Land of Fire, but there are no obvious features, so I can't tell where they're from at all.

Meanwhile, in the suburbs, the Eight-Tails, who was taking a bath, suddenly jolted awake and instinctively poked its head out, its eyes wary.

"I have a bad feeling about this."

"You have one too?"

Just as they finished their breakfast on the shore (since they had just gotten up), the Five-Tails heard the Eight-Tails' voice.

"You have one too?"

The two tailed beasts were taken aback, then their eyes turned serious.

"That's not right."

One might be an illusion, but two might have the same feeling simultaneously, or it could be the intuition of a powerful tailed beast. Even if you said that Kaguya Otsutsuki was about to come down from the moon, they would believe it at least halfway.

The remaining 95% will be left to the Sage of Six Paths who may appear.

As the saying goes, "Ducks are the first to know when the river warms in spring, and chickens are the first to sense when the economy is recovering."

The inexplicable sixth sense made the two tailed beasts feel uneasy.

To alleviate the anxiety, Yao suggested...

"Let's have a chat with the Nine Lamas."

"I agree."

Although the Nine-Tailed Fox hasn't been released from prison yet, snakes have their ways and rats have theirs. Being so close, it's still possible for them to send signals or faxes to their old buddies.

……

Upon seeing the fifty strings, Hiruzen Sarutobi could no longer contain his eagerness.

When asked what exactly happened...

It's no wonder that the Hokage couldn't control himself; he was truly terrified by Madara Uchiha's sudden appearance and his still formidable strength, as well as his earth-shattering Wood Release technique.

Fortunately, the battle took place between the Land of Earth and the Land of Rain. If it had been fought on Konoha's own soil, the entire village would have lost three lives in the process.

He's seen it all.

He had met most of the important figures from the early days of Konoha, and he knew that the Valley of the End was a terrain created by two legendary ninjas, not just a legend.

He had to go to great lengths to suppress the rumors about Wood Release and Madara Uchiha that were circulating in small circles in Konoha.

Even so, one can still feel the undercurrents; not all the elders of the Senju clan who joined the common people back then have died out.

It was because he had seen the true peak that he was so calm about reaching that level. As long as it wasn't a defection, everything was negotiable.

In the First Hokage era, there was someone to hold the line, but in his era, once Mito Uzumaki passes away, and if the defected Isogen returns like Madara Uchiha, can he really rely on his old bones to stop him?

Tsunade looked at Yuuka and couldn't help but ask what was going on.

She's still completely baffled.
