At this time, Land of Rain border
The battle between Jiraiya and Kisame Hoshigaki is about to end.
After all, he is one of Sannin who has been famous for a long time, and his strength is extremely terrifying.
If Uchiha Obito hadn't been watching eagerly, Kisame Hoshigaki might have been defeated long ago.
But now he is at the end of his strength.
"Immortal magic·Big Ball Rasengan!"
Jiraiya roared, and the black lines on his face were like wisps of mysterious totems, exuding powerful power fluctuations.
Powerful chakra surged crazily in the palm of his hand, and a huge spiral sphere took shape instantly.
The high-speed rotating Rasengan seemed to be able to crush everything, making a deafening whistling sound, roaring towards Kisame Hoshigaki like a world-destroying storm ball.
Kisame Hoshigaki looked at the opponent's astonishingly powerful appearance, with a flash of solemnity in his eyes.
At this time, his body was covered with scars and his breath was disordered. Samehada had also been seriously damaged in the previous battle, and the blade was full of gaps.
But the stubbornness in his bones made him unwilling to fail like this. He gritted his teeth, opened his eyes wide, and raised Samehada again, trying to make the final resistance.
"Water Release·Great Exploding Water Colliding Wave!"
The turbulent water spurted out from his mouth like a torrent and spread quickly, forming a huge water curtain, trying to block Rasengan's attack.
However, facing Jiraiya's magical power, Rasengan, this water curtain seemed so fragile.
Rasengan broke through the water curtain with overwhelming force. The water curtain was instantly torn to pieces and water splashed everywhere.
Then with unstoppable momentum, he pressed down on Kisame.
Kisame's eyes widened, a look of extreme horror appeared on his face, and the shadow of death instantly enveloped his whole body.
And just when Rasengan was about to hit Kisame, Uchiha Obito flashed like a ghost and appeared behind Kisame in an instant.
During Setsuna, the space around Kisame Hoshigaki was violently distorted, as if being stirred by an invisible giant hand.
After a while, Kisame Hoshigaki was sucked into a different space by the powerful force of space and disappeared in front of Jiraiya.
At the same time, the huge Rasengan approached like a roaring beast, and was within easy reach of Uchiha Obito in the blink of an eye.
However, what is doubly surprising is that Rasengan actually penetrated Obito's body as if passing through an illusory shadow, but did not cause any damage to him.
"Boom!"
A deafening loud noise was heard, and Rasengan violently collided with the ground.
The powerful power was like a raging wave, spreading crazily to all directions.
There were flying sand and rocks, and smoke and dust filled the air, as if the world was trembling at this moment.
Obito The eyes under the mask are still as cold as ice, as if all this thrilling thing is completely under his control.
He stood there quietly, letting the violent aftermath of Rasengan hit him wantonly.
The breeze gently blew up the corners of his clothes, making his figure look particularly mysterious in the wind, making people unpredictable and awe-inspiring.
Jiraiya was shocked when he saw Rasengan pass directly through the opponent's body without causing any harm. He couldn't help but widen his eyes with disbelief on his face.
His white hair was a little messy due to the residual wind from the battle, making his eyes full of doubts and vigilance.
Who is this mysterious man? Why does he have such strange abilities?
Jiraiya's brain was running rapidly, trying to search for possible clues related to it from the memory, but found nothing.
"Who the hell are you?"
Obito raised his head slightly, was silent for a moment, and spoke in a hoarse and low voice.
"I am Uchiha... Madara!"
"This is impossible!" Jiraiya was shocked and retorted repeatedly.
"Uchiha Madara has died a long time ago, and even if he is alive now, he is already an old man in his seventies or eighties."
"There's no way it's you."
"Who are you and why are you pretending to be Uchiha Madara, Yahiko are they like this because of you?"
"..."
"Ha!" Uchiha Obito snorted coldly, "Whether you believe it or not is not important to me. You will believe it in the future."
Jiraiya stared at Obito, eyes full of disbelief.
Judging from the weirdness of the opponent's attack just now, this Masked Man must be a strong enemy, but I have never heard of such a person before.
However, just when Jiraiya was about to ask again, the small Toad and Sage Fukasaku standing on his shoulders interrupted and whispered in his ear.
"Little Jiraiya, it's time to go, Sage Mode's time is almost up."
Jiraiya nodded slightly after hearing this, "I understand!"
Then he took a deep look at Uchiha Obito, turned around and left without looking back, and disappeared nearby in a short while.
But Uchiha Obito just stood there and watched the other party leave quietly without making the slightest move.
Because he was not sure how long the opponent's weird fighting mode would last, this mode did bring him a bit of pressure.
I can only wait for the next opportunity!
"Sage Mode, it's interesting, it can actually make people so strong!"
Uchiha Obito sneered.
I saw him move slightly, and the surrounding space instantly began to distort, and a deep space Uzumaki slowly emerged.
Uchiha Obito stepped into it without hesitation, and his figure was gradually swallowed by darkness.
And at the moment when Uzumaki was about to close, he took one last look at the direction Jiraiya was leaving, as if silently recording every detail of this battle in his heart.
With the disappearance of space Uzumaki, Obito also completely disappeared from the place, leaving only the battlefield that had just experienced a fierce battle, devastated and silent.
Three days later.
Yan still took people away Land of Lightning.
In this war, Special Zone dispatched more than 2,500 people. Ninja Clan Allied Forces plus civilian ninjas had nearly 5,000 ninjas, and the total force was about 7,000 people.
However, only about 4,500 people have returned now.
In this tragic war with Kumogakure, a total of more than 1,700 people left this world forever.
When leaving Kumogakure, Yan left behind five hundred Special Zone Ninja Army and five hundred ninjas from the Ninja clan, led by Tekka, and gave him the seal to control Yin-Yang Sealing Technique.
He will stay at Kumogakure, on the one hand to take over the daily affairs of Kumogakure, and on the other hand because there are not many people available to Yan now.
Shisui is now in Land of Rice Fields, Yashiro is responsible for public opinion in the village, and Hideto is responsible for public security. After much deliberation, we can only let Tekka stay first.
You can't let Fugaku take care of Kumogakure.
It's okay to let him be a deputy, but let him be in charge, forget it.
After going back, Yan still has to think about who to find to replace Tekka with Kumogakure.
After all, Tekka is responsible for the ninja army inside Special Zone, so it's not good to stay outside all the time.
As for the captured Raikage A, Yan did not hand him over to Kumogakure, but let him be escorted to Konoha.
For Raikage A, Yan has a series of follow-up arrangements.
Time gradually passed, and with everyone rushing around day and night, the entrance to the village of Konoha gradually appeared in front of everyone.
Seeing that familiar door, everyone felt an indescribable emotion and excitement in their hearts.
Standing at the entrance of the village, Izumo Kamizuki and Kotetsu Hagane saw the returning team from a distance, their faces full of surprise and reverence.
"It's Master Yan and they are back!"
As the team gradually approached, Izumo Kamizuki and Kotetsu Hagane shouted in unison.
"Welcome home heroes!"
Under the arrangement of Sarutobi Hiruzen, the villagers of Konoha had already learned of their return.
The villagers gathered at the entrance of the village and stood in two rows across the road to welcome him.
Konoha is crowded with people and colorful flags are flying, like a sea of joy.
The villagers kept waving the colorful flags in their hands, their faces filled with joy and pride.
Tears of relief shone in the eyes of some old people, recalling the glorious days of Konoha. Now seeing the return of these brave warriors, their hearts are filled with emotion.
"These children are amazing. They have sacrificed so much for our village." A white-haired old man said with a trembling voice.
The young couples held their children's hands tightly, pointed at the returning team, and taught their children to learn from these heroes.
The children widened their eyes and looked curiously at these exhausted but glorious ninjas.
At this time, a seed of bravery was planted in their hearts, and they dreamed of one day being able to fight for Konoha like these heroes.
Waves of cheers and applause came from the crowd from time to time. The sound was like a wave, one after another, expressing the villagers' respect and gratitude to the war heroes.
The one with the loudest voice was naturally the one who brought about Konoha's complete defeat of Cloud Village.
People's eyes followed him closely, their eyes full of admiration and admiration.
"Master Yan is so powerful! He was able to beat those barbarians like this!"
"I knew Master Yan would not be defeated."
"Let those barbarians be arrogant, now they have a better memory!"
"..."
Gradually, Yan led the ninja army to Hokage Building.
Sarutobi Hiruzen was standing at the gate at this time. When he saw Yan Hou, Earth Flow came up with excitement on his face and directly held his hand.
"Welcome to the return of the war hero, Yan, I really saw you right."
Then he said it loudly for everyone to hear
"I now announce that Jonin Meeting will be held in one day, Fifth Hokage will be elected, and I recommend Uchiha Yan."
As soon as he finished speaking, both the ninja soldiers and the villagers around him cheered loudly and shouted in unison.
"Hokage!"
"Hokage!"
"Hokage!"
"..."
The enthusiasm caused by the victory of the war was difficult to subside for a long time and lasted until night.
The streets were still brightly lit, and people gathered together to talk excitedly about this great victory.
The children were playing among the crowd, imitating the scenes of ninja fighting, their eyes shining with admiration.
The tavern was filled with people celebrating. They raised their glasses and toasted to Yan and all the heroes.
Laughter, singing and toasts intertwined and echoed in the night sky.
But Yan, who had returned to Uchiha Special Zone at this time, had no intention of resting and threw himself into the intense work non-stop, as if he was tireless.
"Fugaku, nothing happened to Special Zone while I was away, right?"
Fugaku, who was sitting nearby, heard the question. After pondering for a moment, he shook his head.
"Nothing's wrong. Public security in Special Zone is relatively stable, and public opinion has been updating the latest information during the war. We haven't mentioned a word about conflicts on other borders."
But what Fugaku didn't expect was that Yan frowned after hearing his simple report.
"Why didn't you mention it?"
"Um..." Fugaku hesitated for a while, "We feel there is no need to mention it, as it will easily cause panic in the villagers."
"What do you mean?" Yan asked again.
Fugaku scratched his neck, "Third Hokage and I both think so!"
Hey!
After hearing this, Yan shook his head helplessly.
Sure enough, it was right to reject the idea of Fugaku to be stationed at Kumogakure.
You have been in this position for so long, how come you don't even understand a little bit of humanity?
Seeing the disappointed look on Yan's face, Fugaku's heart tightened, "I wonder what you did wrong?"
Yan sighed slightly and said earnestly, "Fugaku, I can understand the idea of beautifying the war intelligence at this stage."
"But you should also spread the news about the border conflict, and also send special reports. The priority is only below Thunder-Fire War."
"This will give them a sense of crisis and let them know that Konoha can still maintain peace in troubled times entirely because of us."
As he spoke, Yan picked up the cup, drank some water, moistened his throat, and continued.
"Another point is that a world of great change is coming."
"We can't always protect villagers in greenhouses and make them blind, deaf, or even mute. This will not do any good for the future of Konoha."
"We need them to have their own thinking and judgment, and to be able to contribute to Konoha at critical moments."
Yan paused slightly and looked at Fugaku deeply.
"Otherwise, why would I have worked so hard to build Common School?"
"Isn't it just to open up the people's wisdom and let them have their own self. Let them understand that they are not only the ones being protected, but also the builders and guardians of Konoha."
"Let them contribute willingly to Konoha without being deceived by outsiders!"
"..."
After speaking, Yan waved his hand and signaled Fugaku to go out and do some work.
If he still can't understand what he said to this extent, then he may have to change his position.
Because after waiting for Yan to become Hokage, he is not planning to cancel the license rights of Uchiha Special Zone. On the contrary, it will increase it and become the true belief of the people of Konoha.
Therefore, the people who will be in charge of Special Zone in the future must not be people who cannot grasp or understand clearly.
As for the redemption of War Merit Board's military exploits, they had already started redeeming it when they returned to Konoha.
Only territory exchange will officially start after Yan comes to power.
After all, in this war, all the major ninja clans contributed a lot and took out all the ninjas they had at the bottom of the box, resulting in great losses.
Yan is not prepared to go back on his word, as this is a slap in the face.
The top ten on War Merit Ranking have been counted.
Special Zone ninjas and ninja ninjas are exactly 50-50, which is quite interesting.
There are even two civilian ninjas among them, which is quite exciting.
Thinking of this, the corners of Yan's mouth slightly raised, revealing an unpredictable smile.
