Noah and Sarutobi Hiruzen finally met in the sun, but the news he brought was a little... magical.
The performer of the heretic technique has almost reached the standard, and even the samsara eye has been inserted into it.
It's just that Sarutobi Hiruzen was kicked out before this, and it is estimated that the real resurrection location will be moved. This unabashed distrust is also quite direct.
Chapter 163 The opportunity for East-West convergence appears
After all, the boss has changed.
It took Black Zetsu more than ten years to gain the trust of the Sandaime, and Madara... It was a kindness of his heart that he didn't directly sentence a guy who dared to tamper with the body of the Impure World Reincarnation to death.
So this scene is normal. What really caught the Sandaime off guard was that his method was cracked.
Uchiha Madara, an old-timer, had more tricks than he expected.
How could the arrogant Madara allow himself to be manipulated by others, even for a short period of time, because of the method of reincarnation.
Therefore, after regaining the Samsara Eye in the Kingdom of Rain, he secretly studied it and used unknown methods to block the control.
During the Warring States Period, there were all kinds of strange techniques in the ninja world. However, during the period of the Five Ninja Villages, ninjutsu had been constantly improving. It is normal for those groups and techniques with strange and single effects to disappear in the long river of time.
It's just that Uchiha Madara is a real antique. With his Sharingan, it's very possible for him to record some techniques that were useless at the time.
And it left him too long.
If Senju Tobirama was given the same amount of time, he might be able to directly develop countermeasures.
In short, the old-timers are all fierce. Hiruzen Sarutobi and the tiger have not had any accidents so far, which is pretty good.
The Sandaime, who had no means of restraint, was immediately abandoned, or returned to his position as a subordinate.
"Take advantage of the time difference between the Five Shadows Conference and go to Konoha to explore the location of the Nine-Tails."
Madara's eyes have been set on resurrection. Without the Ten-Tails, he cannot use the Eye of the Moon.
It's just that the Ninja Village during the invasion preparation period is absolutely hellish, even the former Hokage will have a hard time.
But I have to say that at this time, only Sarutobi Hiruzen has this ability.
Uchiha Madara has not yet been completely dominated by arrogance.
"Where can I find you from now on, Madara-sama?"
"Iron Country."
Recalling this, Sarutobi Hiruzen felt troubled. Perhaps only Noah could deal with such an uncontrollable strong man.
"Iron Country... I roughly know what Uchiha Madara is thinking. I'm afraid Mifune will be sad again."
According to Noah's understanding, after Uchiha Madara is fully resurrected, the most likely possibility is to use thunder to collect the tailed beasts still in the ninja world.
Black Zetsu's intelligence channels will also play a final role.
It only takes a moment for the outer demon controlled by the Six Paths level to absorb the tailed beast, and it should be able to catch up with the Five Shadows Conference.
Coming directly to defeat the five village shadows and declare the Eye of the Moon is what Shura should do in the shinobi world.
After all, a person who is invincible in the world must do something invincible in the world.
If Madara, the Sixth Path level master, didn't take action against himself, Kakashi, Metkai and Scorpion on the Moon, he would really be able to run amok.
Therefore, there will definitely be a shocking war in the Kingdom of Iron.
Then an opportunity to resolve the contradiction between East and West also emerged.
"The Third Hokage, please go to the village and have a look."
This is the first time in years that this has been granted.
Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled freely, knowing that his life had come to an end.
Neither Uchiha Madara nor Noah will allow themselves to continue living. Some things they have done cannot be forgiven.
So I simply used ninjutsu to disguise myself and went down.
I have never been back to Konoha or home since the night of my defection. Let me see it for myself today.
The old man walked calmly in the village, not conspicuous at all, as if he was the most ordinary villager here.
Looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar streets, I was a little hesitant for a moment.
It was clearly before the war, but the people were still peaceful.
The village was not gloomy due to the impact of the war. He really felt that Konoha had become stronger, both from the inside to the outside.
In the end, he decided to go home. Hiruzen believed that Noah would do the best to strengthen his determination.
"It's nothing like before. It's too lively."
The original elder family clan has already become part of Konoha's new city, and a large number of ordinary families have moved in.
Kakashi did not take away all the houses and land, but the Sarutobi tribe replaced and moved many of them themselves in the later period.
I am a little too cautious for fear of being liquidated for gathering together.
Hiruzen Sarutobi quite agreed with his clan's decision. The Hokage didn't care, but the same could not be said for the ninja clan who had been suppressed by the Sarutobi clan before.
Moving in as an ordinary person is a very good trick.
The Godaime has been classifying the position of ninja into a slightly special profession, and has been breaking down barriers.
"It's really full of life, class... removing the mystery and distance, and balancing power and wealth... Kakashi and Noah are simply incomprehensible."
"Those who revolutionize their own lives are the biggest heretics in the world. It's a pity that no one can defeat that big devil."
Sarutobi Hiruzen believed that Madara Uchiha and some goddess behind him would not be victorious on this planet.
I even believe that no one can defeat someone like Noah. That monster is more like the embodiment of a certain kind of thought. If you want to use a metaphor, it is very similar to the Will of Fire, and thoughts are not afraid of swords.
He shook his head and slowly walked to the still preserved Sarutobi ancestral home.
really……
The person who opened the door was his youngest son.
Asma, who has reached middle age, did not have any doubts when seeing this stranger, but calmly welcomed him into the house.
After entering the back room, Sarutobi Hiruzen removed his disguise, and father and son reunited again.
"I just received the leave order from the Hokage Tower. I didn't expect you to come back."
Asuma finally stopped hiding his excitement.
As he slowly grew up in the past time, he also slowly understood what his father did for him.
Then Asma shared her growth story with her father.
The difficulties encountered when the assessment department was first established, the hostility of the village ninjas towards Sarutobi, the incomprehension and instigation of the tribesmen, how he solved everything by fighting wits and courage.
Every elite jounin is a legend, and Sarutobi Asuma's life will not be that simple.
Get to know Noah, befriend Kakashi, join the New Youth, resist three generations of tyranny, overthrow the Council of Elders, establish the Assessment Department, secretly control the Daimyos of the Land of Fire, and organize the Joint Chunin Examination that shocked the history of the ninja world.
After experiencing all kinds of hardships, his strength has grown steadily, but due to his own talent, he has not yet reached his father's level.
He is just a supporting character in the book and the protagonist of his own life.
"Old man, I can surpass Kakashi."
Sarutobi Hiruzen was surprised, what nonsense is this child talking about?
"Red is pregnant."
...won.
Sarutobi Hiruzen was overjoyed. At his age, this might be the best news.
I have always regretted not attending my son's wedding in the past two years. I didn't expect to hear this big surprise when I came back this time.
It did surpass Kakashi, hahahahahahaha.
But the problem that follows is the upcoming Ninja World War...
"Don't worry, I am confident that I can protect my family."
On the contrary, it was really safe for Asuma to board Kakashi's big ship.
Chapter 164 New Konoha
The Godaime's will to protect the villagers and friends is unquestionable. He is not a loser like me who can weigh and compromise.
"Asuma, come with me for a walk."
The two walked around the village together, and Asma told her old father about the changes in the village.
New commercial streets, residential areas, pharmacies, commercial machinery showrooms, general technical schools.
Someone on the road saw Asuma Jounin serving as a guide for someone and didn't think much about it. He was a die-hard subordinate of the Hokage and the head of the assessment department that most ninjas feared. It was not a good thing to get close to them.
"This used to be the territory of the Shimura family, but this family was wiped out seven years ago during the Nine-Tails Jinchuuriki incident."
"The Shimura family..."
Sarutobi Hiruzen was helpless, this family was gone after all.
"The house ahead of us is the home of two jonins, Hizashi and Hizashi. Let's not get too close."
"This is the Uzumaki clan's industry, a place specializing in the production of ritual masks."
"The prices in Daimyo's grain stores are currently stable and have no fluctuations, and the reserves are sufficient."
"That's the expanded Konoha Hospital. Hong is doing a prenatal checkup in there. Do you want to…?"
Although Sarutobi Hiruzen wanted to see his daughter-in-law, he refused in the end, and the reason was very strong.
"My mission is not over yet, and I cannot see anyone outside the mission."
Of course he also gave Asuma a note.
"This is the income from the work during the mission. It can be regarded as the last bit of help for me as a father."
Inside is a secret address.
Part of Black Zetsu's private treasury was not used up and was conveniently misappropriated by Sarutobi Hiruzen. Doing this kind of thing can be considered a professional level.
There are also all Mizukage's wages over the years.
As the greatest Mizukage in the history of Kirigakure, his income is still very high.
Sarutobi Hiruzen was very calm with this money. Without his efforts, the ruined village would still be in the blood mist.
As an inheritance, it is very considerable. We can't let the young couple worry about money in the future.
Next the two went to Ichiraku Ramen.
"Oh~~Uncle Asuma, you are skipping work!"
A whistling sound came from outside the store, and the Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki, Sarutobi Hiruzen's mission target, appeared.
"Naruto, although you are still a genin, I will take you more seriously during the Will of Fire test at the end of every year."
Asma's words made Xiao Huangmao's heart skip a beat.
All the ninjas in Konoha are afraid of this.
Among the five major countries, only the ninjas of Konoha Village are particularly serious about ideological assessment, which is directly related to the amount of tasks and rewards.
So Lianba Chushuo greeted the friends behind him to come in and eat noodles, and Uncle Naruto treated him to a treat.
The Communist Party has not carried out many missions, and this time it used up all the funds.
Whoever calls them is a bunch of sad people.
Something went wrong in the third round of the Joint Chuunin Exams, resulting in no one in this batch being promoted to Chuunin.
You must know that the first two exams are recognized as hell difficulty. Naruto even contributed a famous scene. Sasuke even played the third game.
As a result, they were all disturbed by the shocking assassination of the Mizukage, so the strongest genin could only maintain their status quo.
Then the Hokage signed the combat readiness order, but this group of incredibly powerful genin did not immediately organize themselves into battle order. It seemed that Nakage Shikaku had other plans.
