I was broadcast live while taking the Chunin Exam!

Fireworks, though small, is quite precocious, he said.

"What is the problem?"

"I have great faith in Kaede-kun," Hinata said.

"After all..." Hinata had just started speaking when her tone changed slightly, and her short black hair suddenly turned into long, flowing hair.

(Good job!) His whole demeanor is completely different now.

"what……"

"It's Black Sister!" Little Firework quickly changed her words.

"What's your name, Black Sister?"

"Call me Big Sister!" Hinata instructed her younger sister.

"sister!"

“Well then, Big Sister, Brother Kaede is going to see the shrine maiden,” Hanabi repeated. “Aren’t you worried?”

"Hmph, of course!" Hinata Kuro said. "I have complete faith in my Kaede-kun."

"Or rather, don't think I'm exaggerating, but I feel that his heart is entirely with me, so how could he possibly change his mind! Impossible, impossible!"

"I still have this little bit of confidence."

········

Meanwhile, Kitahara Kaede and his group had arrived in the Land of Demons. After presenting the documents from Konoha, they met the shrine maiden with precognitive abilities.

"So beautiful." Kitahara Kaede gave a reasonable evaluation upon first seeing the other person.

Chapter 152 Naruto, you're going to die! What?! Charge! (Please auto-play and subscribe to the full chapter)

"Please come this way!"

"I never expected to receive the Fifth Hokage of Konoha in person."

The person in charge of receiving Kitahara Kaede and his group was the leader of a shrine maiden's guard team, a clean-cut young man with glasses.

Although humans are visual beings, a quick glance can often reveal a person's personality.

This guy is probably the captain or something like the leader of Aster's tough male bodyguard squad.

“I am Kitahara Kaede,” Kitahara Kaede said.

Considering that his goal was to use the shrine maiden's power for his own purposes, Kitahara Kaede gave the Land of Demons enough face before coming here, so he came wearing the Hokage robe.

"Even a small country like our Land of Demons has heard that Konoha is currently at its zenith."

"Ah. Of course, it's not that we're against you, but it would be great if this could bring peace to the ninja world," the bespectacled young man said.

"Therefore, we admire you very much."

“No,” Kitahara Kaede said. “This is the course of history.”

"The world, after a long period of division, will inevitably unite."

"If the major ninja villages can coexist peacefully, then there is no need for unification."

"But the truth is that there were three Shinobi World Wars, and the powerful ninja villages only wanted to devour other ninja villages and expand their own power."

"It eventually became the current situation of 113."

"Decades have passed, and none of the villages have benefited; all of them have suffered significant losses."

These words are quite insightful.

[Observing Kitahara Kaede? (^_-) Small Group]

[Senju Tobirama]: Hmm... Kitahara Kaede's words are quite correct.

[Big Pillar Silly]: Hey... I originally thought that if the five great ninja villages and five great nations stood together, they could check and balance each other.

[Big Pillar Silly]: The idea of ​​distributing the Tailed Beasts was also based on the consideration that the Five Great Nations are stronger than other nations, and that the Five Great Ninja Villages can then counterbalance the development of the smaller ninja villages. This mutual checks and balances among the Five Great Ninja Villages ultimately leads to a equilibrium. And this equilibrium is peace.

[Big Pillar Silly]: As it turns out, this approach doesn't work.

[Tobirama Senju]: Alright, brother, the key is how to live in the present.

Tobirama Senju: Our era has passed.

[Big Pillar Silly]: Hmm...

·······

So, Kitahara Kaede, Naruto, Kakashi, Kisame Hoshigaki, and Neji followed the bespectacled young man to the shrine where the priestess resided. (bddg)

“This place is huge,” Naruto said.

Having lived in a village since childhood and having not gone out on many missions since, with his only experience being in the impoverished Land of Waves, Naruto was quite surprised by the priestess's palace in the Land of Demons.

Upon arriving at the reception room, Naruto sat down quietly, but with his hands resting on his knees, he seemed somewhat out of place, not quite used to sitting upright.

"Please wait a moment," the bespectacled young man said. "I'll go report it."

“Okay.” Kitahara Kaede nodded.

Everyone waited quietly.

However, the waiting time is a bit long.

"that……"

"Kitahara-kun, this shrine maiden has such a high level of taste."

Will she really help us deal with the demons?

Naruto said.

Naruto was clearly unaware that the reason they were here was because the shrine maiden Shiwan had prophesied Kitahara Kaede's death.

Kakashi glanced in Kitahara Kaede's direction, and Kitahara Kaede nodded with his eyes closed.

So, before Shiwan arrived, Kakashi explained, "Actually, the first reason we came here is that Shiwan, the priestess of the Land of Demons, prophesied Kitahara Kaede's death."

"What?!" Naruto exclaimed in surprise.

Everyone else, except Kisame, was also stunned for a moment.

It seems that Neji's side was not told the truth either.

Kakashi continued, "Besides sealing away demons, the priestesses of the Land of Demons also possess a special ability unique to priestesses."

"And in the land of demons, there is only one priestess per generation."

"And the power of the priestess seems to be passed on."

"As soon as a new priestess is born, the power of the old priestess will quickly decline and will completely disappear in just ten years."

Kakashi said.

These were all details that Kakuzu obtained through gossip.

"Oh..." Naruto quickly put his knees together and listened attentively.

"And so, the power of the shrine maiden is truly wondrous."

“Abu, no…%” Naruto said again. “So this priestess possessed such great power, yet she claimed to have foretold death!”

"how……"

"Does this mean Kitahara-kun, you're going to die?"

"No no no..."

"This is outrageous!" Naruto thought it was ridiculous.

Because Kitahara Kaede's sage talisman saved Guy-sensei from his near-destruction state, but... he's going to die.

This kind of thing is simply unimaginable.

"So... will I die in a hundred years?" Naruto asked.

He felt that the prophecy might be a prediction of normal lifespan.

“No,” Kakashi said. “It will be in ten days… no, one day has already passed, so it will be nine days from now.”

"..." Naruto.

"That's too much!" Naruto stood up abruptly.

If he found Kakashi's explanation of the priestess's power fascinating earlier, he now finds it impossible.

"Because how could Kitahara-kun possibly die!"

Naruto said.

"Yes." Neji agreed.

But soon, he stared wide-eyed at Kitahara Kaede.

Because he remembered what Kitahara Kaede had said to him before he set off: "Break free from fate."

So, his main purpose in coming here is... to break free from fate?

Break the ability to foresee that possesses this powerful force.

"..." Kisame Hoshigaki

Kisame, on the other hand, sat quietly to one side. His body was too large to sit upright, so he placed Samehada behind his back and sat against the wall.

He wasn't very good at talking to others, but at this moment he agreed with Naruto's words.

How could someone who could subdue even Pain die so easily?

So there must be something wrong somewhere.

Since a problem has arisen, it's no longer his concern; he only needs to receive orders and execute them.

Anyway, I've already gotten used to it from the past.

Xiao Li was still confused because he hadn't figured out the situation yet.

"But that's impossible!"

Naruto stood up.

Then he was about to walk outside.

Chapter 153 Naruto, you're going to die, what?! Part 2! (Please auto-click and subscribe to the full chapter)

For him, the fact that he can become a ninja like he is now, then be promoted to Chunin, and even have the opportunity to move up to Hokage, is all thanks to Kitahara Kaede.

So even if it's a joke, he doesn't believe it.

“Prophecy is definitely nonsense!” he said.

Just as he was standing and walking out, he saw a girl with fair skin, like a snow maiden in winter, walking in wearing a golden laurel wreath.

The bespectacled young man who had gone to report earlier was walking behind her.

Don't you believe me?

She must have been standing outside for a while, which is why she heard Naruto and the others' conversation.

"So……"

She slightly raised her eyebrows, her eyes seemingly calm and appearing particularly cold.

She looked at Naruto and said, "I was just taking a nap and had a precognitive dream."

"Naruto Uzumaki, right? You'll die before Kitahara Kaede!"

"In other words, Naruto Uzumaki, I also foresaw your death."

"..." Naruto.

"..." Naruto.

"what!"

"What?!" Naruto jumped up.

However, Ziwan did not stop her cold and calm prediction. She looked at Beiyuan Feng and his group with an indifferent gaze, and then said coldly.

"I foresaw not only you, but also all of you..."
