The Nine-Tails Rebellion!
The Land of Rice is located north of the Land of Fire. Shiyu has now learned to fly and entered the Land of Land of Fire in less than a day. In order to conceal his identity, Shiyu naturally changed his clothes along the way and used Transformation Technique to change his appearance.
Then Shiyu arrived at the entrance of Konoha.
Within the territory of Konoha, there are naturally several Jonin.
"Hey? Who are you?" a Konoha Jonin asked.
"I'm a merchant from the Shinobi Village who comes here to sell Gold Dust," Shiyu said, then offered a small bribe to the Konoha Ninja.
"Hey, what do you take us for? If you're a businessman, then do business properly." One of the Konoha Ninja was clearly a man of genuine character.
"Alright, alright, boss, don't be angry. Since they gave it to us, how can we refuse?" Another Jonin accepted Shiyu's bribe and then allowed Shiyu to pass through the border smoothly.
In reality Shiyu could have easily dealt with them with a single illusion, but doing Shiyu would undoubtedly have alerted them.
After passing the Konoha outpost and walking for some time, Shiyu finally returned to the gates of Konoha.
Looking at the gate with the two large characters "Konoha" written on it, Shiyu was filled with nostalgia.
"It's been so long since I've been back to Konoha. I wonder what that little girl, Kurenai, is up to? Oh right, didn't my grandfather say that once I reach a very strong state, I can start investigating the cause of my parents' death? How about we head to the Hyuga Clan first?"
"Orochimaru is quite strong and intelligent. He failed to be selected as Hokage in Konoha this time, and he's probably harboring resentment. He might already be conspiring with Danzo to conduct human experiments. I need to guide him to the Land of Rice as soon as possible. Should I go and find Orochimaru?"
Shiyu walked down the street, watching the villagers and ninjas coming and going, Shiyu naturally drifted into memories.
"How about we grab a bowl of ramen first?" Shiyu had nothing else to do, so she went to Ichiraku Ramen Shop first.
At Ichiraku Ramen, the Teuchi man, Ayame, is getting old, while Ayame is growing up. These sights make Shigure sigh at the passage of Shiyu.
"Hello, I am a merchant from the Land of Rice. I once received help from the Light of the Shinobi World, Uchiha Shigure. Do you know how the Light of the Shinobi World is doing?" Shiyu asked.
The Teuchi aback for a moment, then revealed a sorrowful expression and said, "That child died after the Third Shinobi World War. What a pity, that child was the most talented ninja in our village, no, in the entire Shinobi World."
"It died young? No way?" Shiyu was also somewhat incredulous.
"It's absolutely true. The Lord Third himself announced it, and even erected a special Memorial Stone for him! It's right next to the Konoha Memorial Stone." The Teuchi man then added, "Sigh, if he hadn't died, he'd probably be about your age."
"Excuse me, I'd like to ask if the Fourth Kazekage has any children?" Shiyu asked.
"Haha, the Fourth Kazekage Hokage's wife Kushina, is indeed pregnant for over half a year, but she hasn't given birth yet. However, I think it will be soon," said Teuchi.
"Thank you." Shiyu finished her ramen, paid the extra money to the Teuchi, and then left the Ramen Shop.
"This guy seems familiar. What do you think, Ayame?"
"I also feel a sense of familiarity, it's like Brother Shiyu."
"Sigh, it seems we miss him too much." Teuchi continued making ramen, thinking he might have misjudged the situation.
After leaving the Ramen Shop, Shiyu went to the Memorial Stone first. Sure enough, near the Memorial Stone heroes, there was another Memorial Stone erected for Shiyu, signifying that he was a hero of Konoha who single-handedly ended the Third Shinobi World War.
Shiyu couldn't help but sneer, "If I weren't the real person, I might actually believe it. Danzo and the Third Hokage are both too good at making up stories."
"Kushina is already so pregnant, which means Naruto is about to be born, and that will be the time of Minato and Kushina's death."
"Could it be such a coincidence? I came here today, and a huge change is about to happen in Konoha?" Shiyu was also a little confused.
"If Obito controls the Nine-Tails to attack Konoha, who should I help?" Shiyu was a little conflicted, but he quickly found an answer.
"Without a doubt, I will definitely help the Fourth Kazekage. I have no relation to Obito, but I have connections with many people in Konoha."
Just Shiyu was lost in thought, a woman with Byakugan eyes took out a bouquet of flowers and placed it in front of Shiyu's Memorial Stone.
"Hello, are you also paying Lord Shiyu, the Light of the Shinobi World? You don't seem to be a Konoha ninja," the woman asked.
Shiyu nodded.
"That's wonderful. It seems there are people in other countries who have been protected by Shiyu. This guy is a genius and a good person. I believe he's not dead." After saying that, the woman turned and left.
"Kurenai. Shiyu wanted to call out, but she never uttered a sound."
The woman before them was naturally Kurenai, but Kurenai did not recognize Shiyu, and Shiyu did not reveal his identity either. The two had a brief meeting.
Kurenai's identity is special, Shiyu cannot take her away. Now that Shiyu has revealed his identity, it will only make things more complicated.
"Forget it, I'll stop thinking about it now and go find Orochimaru!"
Shiyu where Orochimaru lived, Orochimaru headed straight for him and quickly entered Orochimaru residence.
Orochimaru's residence remained as clean and tidy as ever.
"Does this guy have mysophobia? His own techniques are so disgusting." Shiyu didn't find Orochimaru at Orochimaru residence, so he directly used the Wood Clone Technique to summon Wood Clone that looked exactly like himself.
"You just stay here and wait for Orochimaru to return."
"Yes!"
After giving his instructions, Shiyu left Orochimaru's residence. As darkness fell, Shiyu had a strong sense of foreboding.
"Shiyu, can you feel it?" The Isobu within her began to speak.
"I sensed the Nine-Tails' chakra."
"Yes, the moment the seal is weakest, which is when the Jinchuriki gives birth, is also when the Tailed Beast's power is at its strongest. If it encounters a backlash at this time, it will lose its life," the Three-Tails said.
"Okay, the Teuchi says Kushina has been pregnant for over half a year. Maybe the exact time is more than nine months? If that's the case, today could very well be Naruto's birth day!"
"In that case, Obito will definitely not let this opportunity slip by! The Nine-Tails Rebellion is practically inevitable! Since I am the guide of the Child of Prophecy, I must protect Naruto."
Shiyu then activated his sensory abilities Shiyu quickly located Kushina and Minato's positions, Shiyu rushing towards them.
