The Meat Grinder on the Kumogakure Battlefield

"What is it?" Shiyu's mind was filled with images of Kurenai, Nao, and the Hizashi; he couldn't remember anything else.

"Didn't we agree that I would tell you my name?" the Otsutsuki Woman said.

"Remember this! My name is Kagura Otsutsuki," the Otsutsuki Woman said.

"Okay, I understand. By the way, didn't you say that the Uchiha Clan's downfall was inevitable? Why are you so insistent on not letting me kill Danzo? Anyway, we'll all end up in different futures." Shiyu slowly Earth Flow Danzo.

"I said no! And that means no!" Kagura Otsutsuki reappeared before Danzo using Yomotsu Hirasaka once more.

"If you insist on killing Danzo, you will be going against the future order!" Kagura Otsutsuki said very seriously.

Shiyu gleaned some clues from this statement.

"Could this guy be something like a time patroller?" Shiyu couldn't help but wonder.

"Why are you so obsessed with killing him?" Kagura Otsutsuki asked.

"Killing Danzo will change a future that shouldn't be changed, and that's why I'm here. If you want to achieve your goal, I can help you in my own way, but only if you follow my methods," Kagura Otsutsuki said again.

"Your way??" Shiyu asked, puzzled. "What way?"

Kagura Otsutsuki said, "You don't need to know. What you are doing now is vastly different from what you are going to do!"

"What you need most right now is to get to the battlefield between Kumogakure and Konoha as quickly as possible." Kagura Otsutsuki flipped her hands over and said, "One day you'll understand what I mean. When you change a future that shouldn't be changed, I'll go and stop you."

You'll understand.

"Super Flying Thunder God Technique!" Kagura Otsutsuki teleported Shiyu and his numerous guards away.

"Explain yourself!" Shiyu wanted to continue the conversation, but a white light enveloped her body.

Shiyu found himself instantly at the battleground between Kumogakure and Konoha, a thousand miles away.

What kind of light is that!?

"Could it be reinforcements from Kumogakure again?"

"This is such a headache!"

Shiyu came out, Konoha was shocked!

"It's Lord Shiyu! Lord Shiyu, the Light of the Shinobi World! He's come to our aid!?"

Shiyu took a step forward, and all the guards behind her followed. Shiyu surveyed the battlefield, which was filled with smoke, littered with corpses, and flowed with blood.

Ninja battles should theoretically be fought through stealth and assassination, but the actions of Kumogakure and Konoha made Shiyu realize that this world is, after all, the World of Naruto.

"Shiyu! You actually came all the way from Konoha! Is it to support us?" Jiraiya quickly gave Shiyu a meaningful look.

"That's right! I led the vanguard and arrived ahead of time! The other main force of Konoha arrived shortly after." Shigure said with Shiyu of authority.

"What!? The main force of Konoha is arriving soon?" The ninjas from the Kumogakure were all shocked when they heard this.

"No! We must inform the Lord Third! How long until our weapons arrive on the battlefield?"

"I don't know! There's no news of any successful attacks on the flanks! The enemy is in the dark while we are in the light?"

"Withdraw! Withdraw first!"

After a swift decision, the Kumogakure immediately chose to retreat.

Jiraiya that Kumogakure had retreated, Jiraiya finally felt relieved and ordered Konoha not to pursue them before returning to headquarters.

Shiyu, naturally, led his guards to join Jiraiya's main force of Konoha.

Upon arriving at the main tent, Shiyu immediately inquired, "Jiraiya- senpai, how is the battle going? Have you seen any of the other members of Team Seven?"

Jiraiya sighed and said, "What a meat grinder battle! Both sides suffered heavy casualties! It seems that Kumogakure truly possesses the power to challenge the entire Shinobi World!"

"Team Seven has special abilities, so I assigned them to the reconnaissance squad to observe the enemy's movements. Don't worry, they are led by Gray Fang and supported by Hizashi, who are members of the Hyuga Clan and Hatake Clan." Jiraiya was not worried about the safety of the flank.

"The main battlefield is in a terrible state. The Kumogakure is using all sorts of Nintaijutsu to fight, and we can only rely on mid-range Ninjutsu attacks to keep our distance from Kumogakure. But who knew that the situation would change after the Kumogakure launched a cannon."

"A cannon? You mean Chakra Cannon?" Shiyu was also surprised, not expecting that Kumogakure would have such a thing. However, Kumogakure did have one in the original story, although it was introduced later.

However, Shiyu estimated that this Chakra Cannon was not very advanced, and that in the future, the Kumogakure's Chakra Cannon might even be able to destroy the moon.

"I'm not here to help Konoha, nor do I intend to be Konoha's enemy," Shiyu said directly to Jiraiya.

"We can't blame the Third Hokage for what happened. After all, he was the head of the village, and as Hokage, he had to make choices," Jiraiya said.

"I know, that's why I've decided to leave Konoha. I'm only here to rescue my former comrades. Jiraiya, please don't stop me," Shiyu said calmly.

"Ha! I would like to stop you, but I know I can't stop you at all." Jiraiya shook his head and said, "However, it's enough that you have no intention of being enemies with Konoha. Your ideas are unique, and you have the ability to change your surroundings. No one can give you the answer."

"You need to find the answer yourself, therefore, I will not be your enemy." Jiraiya didn't seem so insistent.

"Thank you, so could you tell me where they are?" Shiyu asked.

"Shiyu, I will tell you." Jiraiya nodded, then said, "They are Konoha Ninja. Whether they know what happened to you or not, what will Konoha do to them?" Jiraiya advised, "Hizashi is the head of the Hyuga Branch Family, and Kurenai is of even higher status, representing the Hyuga Clan. The village cannot possibly harm them, let alone Gray Fang and Nao, who represent the Hatake Clan."

Shiyu also understood Jiraiya's meaning.

"If you want to save them, win this battle! Not for Konoha! But for them! For the bond between you." Jiraiya heartfelt sincerity, told Shiyu the right thing to do.

"Yes, if we save them now, they'll hate me for the rest of their lives. So let's end this battle!"

"By the way, Jiraiya, I want to know if the Eight-Tails and the Two-Tails have appeared on the battlefield?" Shiyu asked.

"Of course! The main fighting force of Kumogakure consists of the Third Raikage, his son, the Third Hokage- Eight-Tails Jinchuriki, the Two-Tails Jinchuriki, and a host of powerful members from the major Kumogakure clans!"

"Our side isn't bad either! Jiraiya! The Uchiha Clan Head! Minato Namikaze! Grey Fang! And now we have you!"
