He was in Konoha, exuding an aura of dominance.

The leader was a young man with face paint on.

"Hey, this seat is taken. Please move to another place."

After being provoked time and time again, even the most perfect facade of Cixian was about to crumble.

I have experienced similar things before, but never so many at once!

He endured the malice of the ninja world!

Tolerable or unbearable.

As a proud Otsutsuki, he could tolerate minor troubles that caused him to delay in order to avoid the project, but so many troubles all at once seemed like minor troubles.

He felt it was time to show some strength so that these troublemakers would know what true wrath was!

"You lot, this is Konoha, don't cause trouble."

A masked Konoha ninja suddenly appeared and warned the group from Sunagakure.

The man in oil paint said unhappily, "Can't we even sit here if we want to? Are you Konoha's Anbu meddling in our affairs?"

The Dark Division remained unmoved: "My eyes are my ruler; you are all newcomers."

The Sand Village group pursed their lips and didn't press the matter further.

After they left, the Anbu turned to Jigen and said calmly, "Recently, due to the Chunin Exams, ninjas from various villages have come to Konoha. If you encounter a similar situation, you can seek help from Konoha at any time."

After saying that, he leaped onto the telephone pole in a flash, cosplaying as a crow, and disappeared into a black shadow.

"..." Cixian remained silent.

The words of the Konoha Anbu left no ripple in his mind. He felt as if he had painstakingly done needlework for half an hour and was just one step away from the finish line when suddenly a deafening barrage of bullets came from downstairs. The bullets were stuck in the barrel, neither going up nor down, and he was so frustrated that his face turned red and his expression became ferocious.

With her brows furrowed, Cixian felt increasingly that this place was strange.

The ninja village is a product of the last few decades. He had only visited the ninja village occasionally for some reason and did not know much about it. But even if the ninja village was a base with military capabilities, it should not have such a strange appearance.

It was as if all the bad things had suddenly come rushing at him.

Everything happened so naturally, as naturally as a scene that unfolds every day in this village.

He trusted his judgment; these inferiors could not possibly deceive his senses.

But this only made him feel more frustrated.

He didn't reveal his strength because he didn't want to alert the powerful figures of the ninja world, especially the bloodline left behind by that damned Kaguya Otsutsuki.

But now, he suddenly felt that there wasn't much difference between exposing himself and not exposing himself.

'Phew, just wait a little longer. Once the descendants of the Otsutsuki bloodline enter the Chunin Exams, I can take that body with me.'

He reassured himself, Jigen had vowed that once he recovered, he would turn Konoha upside down, and even chop earthworms vertically!

"Wow, he's so patient. Could this guy be the one who disguised the turtle that Akai was wearing?"

In the distance, sensory ninjutsu encompassed the entire Hidden Leaf Village, with a particular focus on Jigen. Yuuka Igogaku witnessed Jigen's entire ordeal and was deeply moved by his final reaction.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

Even if I knew in advance that Cixian wouldn't expose himself over such a small matter before he was absolutely certain, I still have to say it. Being able to endure such extreme torment is truly worthy of being an old tortoise that can hide for a thousand years.

It truly achieved the status of a thousand-year-old tortoise.

He didn't restrain his sensory ninjutsu too much; anyone with sufficient ability could tell that his senses encompassed the entire Hidden Leaf Village.

Even if Jigen sensed it, he would only assume it was a necessary measure taken by Konoha at this crucial moment.

The Fifty Strings exploit the information gap and provoke the millennia-old experience accumulated by the Compassionate Strings.

Ancient relics from a thousand years ago certainly wouldn't understand ninja villages, a novel concept that has only emerged in recent decades.

"Yu Ge, are you still paying attention?" Mito Uzumaki walked over slowly, carrying a plate of wagashi (Japanese sweets).

She could tell what Isogen was doing from his expression.

"Don't be too anxious. Since that person can tolerate these unfair treatments, it means he won't launch a sudden attack anytime soon."

But this also means that the other party has grand ambitions.

Mito Uzumaki understood.

But she wasn't in a hurry. Having lived for decades, she had seen all sorts of storms. If the situation really reached its most critical moment, she wouldn't mind using some unethical means.

For example, the graves of powerful figures from past generations buried in Konoha.

Since they're all from Konoha anyway, it's really too good for them to die and still contribute to the village.

Let's drag out that bastard Hashirama Senju.

Damn it, Hashirama Senju left behind a bunch of troublesome things for his descendants to deal with. As a result, the war became bigger and fiercer, and after a period of arms race among the villages, they sent their trained ninjas to the front lines to fill the gaps.

If you had finished earlier, none of this would have happened!

Mito Uzumaki harbored deep resentment towards this long-dead ghost.

She had no choice before; war in the ninja world was an inevitable trend, so she endured it.

What about Madara Uchiha?

So you've planted such a huge time bomb in the village by dying, haven't you?

If it weren't for the village's good fortune in having the appearance of the Fifty-Stringed Song, by the time Madara Uchiha recovered and completed his plan, even the earthworms of Konoha would have been chopped vertically!

The Impure World Reincarnation technique isn't difficult to learn, and there's even a pioneer like Igarashi. In a real crisis, you can dig out Hashirama Senju along with him. Even if the resurrected ninja isn't as strong as they were in life, they can at least hold them off for a while.

Aren't the older generation just cannon fodder for the younger generation?

“By the way, Kurama wants to talk to you about something.” Mito Uzumaki said, covering half of her face with Kurama’s chakra.

The nine-tailed fox's ferocious aura was revealed, but the ferocity of the remaining fifty strings of the song was slightly reduced.

"Hey, let's make a deal."

Isogen stared at him, his eyes narrowing slightly: "I've had a question for a long time."

Nine-Tailed Fox, though puzzled, replied respectfully, "Ask away."

"Are the genders of your tailed beasts fixed?"

Nine-Tails thought for a moment: "We tailed beasts don't actually have genders, and even our attitudes toward humans are mainly derived from you humans."

Tailed beasts are conscious aggregates of chakra, and chakra is a special energy that can perceive what one thinks. If they receive messages of truth, goodness, and beauty, then the tailed beasts are natural protectors of the planet and gods of humanity; otherwise, they are evil gods.

Clearly, since the Tailed Beasts were born, they have never truly enjoyed goodness and beauty. If they have, it is only a small fraction of them, and that number is insignificant compared to the vast population of the ninja world.

But Wuxian doesn't care about that; he cares about something else.

"Then you become a blonde with a tiny waist, a sweet voice and a soft body, or a fair-skinned, beautiful woman with big waves, and I will answer your question."

"...Old woman, let go of him! I want to fight him one-on-one!"

"Okay."

"Hahaha... I was just joking around."

The humiliation of the Nine-Tailed Fox has been accomplished today.

Chapter 55 The Sage of Six Paths, His Words Sound So Familiar

After recovering, Nine-Tails spoke seriously.

"Do me a favor and take that guy down. In return, you can lend me your power whenever you want."

"The power of a single tailed beast is not very useful to someone like you, but as long as you combine the two powers, you can create unexpected power."

Nine-Tailed Fox deeply understands this.

Leaving aside the Jinchuriki and the perfect Jinchuriki mode without achieving tacit understanding, other methods can also achieve this.

For example, Madara Uchiha's actions back then.

Susanoo in full armor.

Although he was very unwilling, he also admitted that he could easily defeat himself alone in that state.

Chakra is a magical power that not only the Sharingan can achieve, but someone at the level of the Fifty Strings could certainly do something similar.

Nine-Tails was going all out.

In order to avoid being fed to the Ten-Tails, he can now do many things!

Being killed or sealed away is only temporary; after a while, one can continue to live a carefree life. But if one is fed to the Ten-Tails, there is truly no chance of turning the tables.

Most importantly, this Ten-Tails is not the one that separated from them in the first place, which means that once it was eaten by that Ten-Tails, it really had no chance to return.

Looking across the entire ninja world, if the Sage of Six Paths doesn't appear, the only one who can offer help to their Tailed Beasts in this matter is Yuuka Igarashi.

Mito Uzumaki is old, and Madara Uchiha tends to believe that he is not completely dead and will return in the future, but he doesn't know the specific time and doesn't want to ask Madara Uchiha for help.

As for Isogen, although he was sharp-tongued and often poured his will of dominance into himself, it must be said that he never coveted the power of the tailed beasts.

The only thing that could make him think about the Tailed Beasts is stamp collecting.

Didn't you see how well King Mu and the Ox Demon were staying on the outskirts of Konoha? The designated living areas were just to prevent them from entering the village in a big way to avoid causing damage. At other times, they could run away as far as they wanted without any problem.

Compared to them, I, who am still in prison, am just too miserable.

The beastly eye that Nine-Tailed Fox revealed looked at Fifty Strings.

There was something else he didn't mention.

As the 50th string became increasingly mysterious, he was surprised to find that he no longer felt repulsed by this human, and even had a faint feeling of closeness to him.

It felt like being a carefree little fox in the forest back then.

Doubts arose.

Kurama clearly knows that due to the influence of various human distractions, tailed beasts have no affection for humans. If they don't kill them when they encounter them, it's already considered gentle, let alone getting close to them.

At first, he suspected that Isogen might be the offspring of the Sage of Six Paths, the great-great-great-grandfather of all the ninjas in the world.

But after spending a long time together, he was shocked to discover...

This guy is just an ordinary person with a respectable family background!
