After the Akatsuki Organization finished their meeting, a masked figure walked into the long-tongued statue in Amegakure.

"Nagato, we need to keep an eye on that red-haired boy named Kanami. The Shinobi World won't tolerate someone as powerful as him."

Pain, who had just finished using the Limbo: Border Jail inside the statue, opened his eyes.

"I know, Madara, the tattoo has already been sent by Itachi Uchiha."

"Itachi Uchiha?"

Obito Uchiha slightly surprised.

"What's wrong?"

"It's alright, Itachi... is fine too."

After speaking, Obito Uchiha's figure became ethereal and disappeared from the spot.

A long time passed after he left.

A woman named Konan with a green bun hairstyle emerged from the shadows inside the statue.

"Nagato, do you believe he is actually Madara Uchiha?"

Pain turned to look at Konan: "I don't believe it."

"Then why...?"

"He wanted to use me, but wasn't I using him too?"

"Who he is doesn't matter; the information he possesses is extremely useful to me."

"Until he realizes my ideals of peace, let's just consider him as Madara Uchiha."

After listening to what Pain said, Konan nodded slowly.

They both knew all along that the other person was definitely not Madara Uchiha.

No matter how powerful an entity from the Warring States period was, it was impossible for it to have survived to this day, transcending the passage of time.

However, they were also unaware of who was actually impersonating Madara Uchiha and roaming the Shinobi World.

As for the other party's purpose, the two of them had some idea.

At the very least, they should be allowed to capture the Tailed Beast; this is definitely part of their plan.

Similarly, this is also Nagato's plan.

"Once I collect all the Tailed Beast and obtain the ultimate Tailed Beast Weapon, I will definitely tear off your mask and see who you really are."

In a dimly lit room, surrounded by barriers that blocked all senses, Nagato, sitting in a Nagato, smiled slightly.

However, he never realized that Obito Uchiha of collecting the Tailed Beast a secret from him.

Obito told Nagato that if all the tails were collected, they could obtain the strongest Tailed Beast Weapon in the Shinobi World, enough to sweep across the entire Shinobi World.

In fact, collecting all the Tailed Beast will eventually give birth to the Ten-Tails, and with this as an opportunity, one can even become the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki, possessing unparalleled power.

Becoming the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki was Obito Uchiha's true goal.

Little did he know that he was no different from Nagato; he himself was nothing more than a clown deceived by Madara Uchiha.

Two days later,

Konoha Village in the Land of Fire.

While busy with the reconstruction work in the village, Tsunade sealed Chakra's Killer B and imprisoned him in the Konoha Dungeon.

She also learned about Kanami's handling of the Two-Tails Matatabi.

Tsunade didn't question the Two-Tails girl's presence, but Tsunade did give a slight reprimand to the Yugito Nii.

The main reason is that Kanami is too carefree, and his identity is only that of Genin Konoha.

If we don't put some restraint on them, there will probably be many imitators in the village soon.

She had no objection if it was about emulating Kanami's strength.

The worst-case scenario is that the villagers can only imitate Kanami's carefree attitude, and then managing them will be exhausting for her.

"Knock knock knock."

Just after Tsunade gave Kanami a brief reprimand, there was a knock on the Hokage's Office door.

Tsunade said, "Come in."

"Tsunade, it's been so long! Did you miss me?"

A white-haired man with spiky hair walked in with a grin.

Upon hearing Tsunade's forehead.

She said with a stern face, "I don't think Orochimaru misses you either."

It was only then that Jiraiya noticed there was another person beside him.

Kanami from the side.

A blond-haired man peeked out from behind Jiraiya, immediately pursing his lips and complaining, "Kanami! I didn't expect the first person I'd see upon returning to the village would be you!"

Kanami rolled his eyes at Naruto: "You're not thinking about seeing Sakura Haruno the first time you see her, are you?"

"Ah! How did you know!"

Naruto Uzumaki grabbed his hair, looking quite annoyed.

He did indeed have this thought in mind, and he wanted the first person he saw to be Sakura Haruno.

After training away for so long, and not seeing each other for about two years, Sakura will definitely have a different feeling about him when they meet for the first time!

In one swift motion, he captured Sakura!

This was what he had been thinking before.

"You idiot, your emotions are written all over your face. If I didn't know what you were thinking, wouldn't I be an idiot just like you?"

"Hmph, let's not talk about that. Look how much I've changed now, aren't I handsome?"

Naruto made faces and struck a weird, cool pose.

Kanami shook his head.

That comical demeanor, that's enough to make anyone in the market handsome.

"You've wasted two years of your cultivation."

No wonder that in the Original Plot, Sakura Haruno initially showed some difference in her feelings towards you, but the next second she revealed her true colors and crushed you with one punch.

Naruto pursed his lips and muttered softly, "Actually, I think so too."

Jiraiya's ears twitched, and he clearly caught Naruto's words.

"Your foundation is too weak, and your fine manipulation of Chakra is even worse. Strengthening your foundation over the next two years is the best training for you."

That still means there's no progress.

Naruto's inner monologue.

Jiraiya then looked at Tsunade again.

"I heard that Konoha was under siege by Cloud Village, so Naruto and I ended our training early and rushed back."

At this point, his gaze involuntarily drifted to Kanami: "I heard that the Cloud Village was completely annihilated before it even stepped into the Village Entrance of Konoha."

Tsunade nodded. "Mm."

She then recounted the events of the past few days to Jiraiya.

After listening, Jiraiya frowned.

"It's actually true."

He looked at Kanami Kanami, as if trying to see right through him.

How did he manage to do that?

Kanami...

A commoner without even a surname possesses the power to withstand Tailed Beast.

"Jiraiya, Granny Tsunade, if there's nothing else, I'll be going now."

Naruto was already imagining what kind of expression Sakura would have if she saw him looking so handsome now.

"Wait a minute Naruto, I'm giving you an urgent mission now."

I just got back and I already have an urgent mission? Yay! I'll show Sakura how efficient I am at completing missions! Plus, with my current handsome appearance! Sakura -chan~ Hahaha!

As he thought about it, Naruto looked up at the sky and laughed.

He raised his hand to wipe the corner of his mouth. "Granny Tsunade, just tell me, what urgent mission is it! Leave it to me!"

"The Village Entrance is urgently needing manpower for reconstruction; you should go and help immediately."

"Huh? You want me to do hard labor? What kind of urgent task is this?!"

Tsunade raised an eyebrow. "How can it not count? The Village Entrance is the village's first line of defense! Hurry up and go, don't forget, you haven't taken on a single request in two years!"

"Damn it, why didn't you let Kanami go?" Naruto shouted, pointing at Kanami.

You mean Kanami?

Tsunade's lips curled into a smile.

"You want the heroes of this war to go to the Village Entrance and carry bricks? You really have the nerve to say that, Naruto."
