Some of the ninjas on the eastern front returned to the village first.
A large number of villagers stood on the side of the road, cheering loudly and calling for the dawn of peace.
When Genitsu crossed the gate and walked into the village, this major welcome ceremony reached its peak.
"It's really lively. These people calling for peace... really hope that such a thing as war will never happen."
Genitsu smiled and waved around. Behind him were many wounded people wrapped in bandages. These were the first batch of ninjas to return to Konoha.
But unfortunately, it is just a wishful thinking after all.
"That person is Lord Genitsu. It is said that he was on the front line and teamed up with Lord Jiraiya to defeat Third Mizukage!"
"So young..."
"The war on the Eastern Front is over. As long as Orochimaru, Tsunade and Minato defeat Stone Ninja and Sand Ninja, everything will be over!"
Many people's faces showed deep anticipation and joy.
After four years of bloody fighting, they lost too much and made too many sacrifices. Finally, they saw the dawn of peace.
Many of Genitsu's contemporaries were also standing in the team, looking at Genitsu with complicated expressions.
"He has left us far behind." Red whispered.
Asuma gritted his teeth. Although he was unwilling to accept it, he could only agree with his head.
He is rebellious, but not a fool.
What's more, facing a monster like Genitsu, he can't see any hope of transcendence for the time being.
"Is such a guy who does Will of Fire really right? The old man is right, but I am wrong??" Asuma is somewhat doubtful about life.
Shisui was also in the team returning to the village, looking around excitedly. His name of Body Flicker Shisui was also made among this First Shinobi World War.
"Senior Genitsu, many people are calling your name!" Shisui said excitedly.
"Calm down, Shisui, this is just a routine operation." Genitsu patted Shisui on the shoulder.
"Yes! As expected of senior Genitsu, have you been prepared for this kind of scenario?"
"Well, let's be honest, they are not just cheering for us, but also cheering for peace. All warriors who can bring them peace will be sought after, Shisui, you have to remember this, everything I have to do is to work hard to achieve eternal peace."
"Senior Genitsu... is this the enlightenment of the successor Will of Fire?"
Shisui looked at Genitsu's back and was greatly shocked.
He discovered that not only in terms of strength and thinking, but also in terms of vision, this senior was far ahead of him.
Shisui suddenly discovered that he, who was obsessed with paying attention to the struggle between a clan and a village, had unknowingly entered into the narrow-mindedness, which made Shisui feel extremely ashamed.
"...?Shisui, don't look at me like that."
Genitsu is a little confused, what's wrong with Shisui's depression? Could it be that he's starting to be depressed now? How could this happen? This guy's eyes are very useful, but he can't commit suicide like in the original work.
After the ceremony, Genitsu finally ushered in freedom.
The first thing he did was go to Root Base and meet Danzo.
"I heard about you on the front line. You are worthy of being my disciple." Danzo nodded indifferently, as if everything Genitsu did was just satisfactory, "I heard that you got Byakugan?"
"Yes, I took this precious eye back from my enemy."
Genitsu took out a glass vessel, which contained a Byakugan.
"Byakugan...Hyuga Main Family is not as good as the previous one. We worked hard to develop Caged Bird Seal to protect Byakugan, but it was taken away by the guy from Hidden Mist." Danzo sneered.
"Teacher, why don't you leave this eye to me? I'm very interested in the bloodline of the Hyuga Clan, a thousand-year-old family..."
Huh?
Danzo took a deep look at Genitsu. He didn't know what was going on, but the more he looked at it, the more pleasing it became to his eyes.
To be able to ask for Byakugan so clearly and openly, and also bluntly say that he wants to decipher the secret of the Hyuga Main Family's bloodline... Ha, he is indeed my disciple.
This subcategories me!
"Although I don't know how proficient you are in human experiments, I didn't stop you from messing around with that genius Uchiha Clan because I don't care about that genius' life or death... Do you understand what I mean?"
"Of course, please don't worry, I will not destroy this precious Byakugan." Genitsu smiled.
It is really easy to deal with Danzo. You only need to mention many things, and the sinister Danzo will understand them immediately.
Don't even bother to pretend.
"Humph, in this case, there is no need for me to hide it from you. In fact, I am also conducting some necessary human experiments on the command root. All of this is for Konoha!"
Genitsu also solemnly said, "Everything is for Konoha."
Danzo nodded.
The master and apprentice were silent for a while.
Danzo suddenly asked, "You used a brand new secret technique again? The one that imitated Tailed Beast Cloak?"
Genitsu nodded calmly. "Yes, I just tried it, but I didn't expect it to work..."
"You got some kind of psychic beast, right? Try to make artificial Tailed Beasts. The previous Nine Mask Svāhā was prepared for this." Danzo asked.
"Ah, Teacher Danzo actually saw the problem at a glance..."
"Hmph, not only me, Hiruzen and the others can think of it."
"Please don't worry, this is also a power controlled by me, but that psychic beast is more troublesome and likes to sleep..."
"As my disciple, you must not be threatened by a beast. There are many Sealing Jutsu and brainwashing sciences in the root. You can take them all. If you don't have enough, I will find them for you from Scroll of Seals. In short, you must find a way to tame that despicable beast."
Danzo held a cane and hit the ground hard. In this dim underground base, the sound spread far away.
Genitsu looked touched. This attitude satisfied Danzo so much that he couldn't help but nod secretly.
"In addition, if I ask you to hand over the method of artificial Tailed Beasts..."
"Teacher Danzo, of course I am willing to hand it in, but the problem is that no one can repeat this technique except me, so, Teacher Danzo..."
Genitsu said with a smile.
Danzo frowned subconsciously, feeling a little unhappy. At the same time, he remembered that Genitsu's abilities seemed to involve the operation of molecules and atoms, which was really not in line with him.
Nine Mask Svāhā... well, compared to Hashirama Cells and Sharingan, it's not worth mentioning.
After snorting coldly, Danzo turned and left without saying a word.
Just when his entire figure was about to disappear into the darkness, he spoke again.
"If you don't have enough life left, you can come to me."
"In addition, your will and my will are very consistent, so it's time for you to perform some secret missions... I have some contact with Hanzo of Land of Rain. This is done without telling the third generation. On the 12th of next month, you will lead a team of Gen ninjas to Land of Rain to meet the dangerous guy Hanzo."
"This mission is not difficult. The two parties launched a joint operation to strengthen trust. The mission goal is to eliminate a local armed organization Land of Rain."
"The name of that organization is..."
"Akatsuki!"
