Shinobi Alliance Arrives in the Land of Earth

Jiraiya eventually walked out of Ren's office unharmed.

Ren smiled dismissively at Jiraiya's harsh words before Jiraiya left.

Jiraiya had considered the future that Ren spoke of, but that would be a long way off.

Before that, apart from a few victims, the rest of the Shinobi World villages would enter a long honeymoon period and a period of Yamato.

The overall peace, interspersed with localized conflicts, will continue, and the ninjas will maintain their fighting strength.

Before the future envisioned by Jiraiya, the appearance of the Ōtsutsuki Clan will prevent the Shinobi World from continuing its internal strife.

Before the Ōtsutsuki Clan appeared, it would have been completely impossible for Jiraiya to stop the Shinobi Alliance's operation.

The ninjas from various villages, now fully mobilized, yearn for 'peace'.

With all the arrangements for the operation in the Land of Earth complete, Ren no longer paid attention to it.

As Ren issued his orders, many projects in the Experimental Building were halted, and all the researchers joined Orochimaru's project.

This includes having a large number of other strategic projects in hand.

Ren never forgot what was most important.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye, Jiraiya set off with the allied forces.

Jiraiya tried to stop the Allied Forces from setting out, but his orders would change as soon as they left the command tent.

Different commanders have different uses. Jiraiya a commander, is only responsible for providing fame and taking the blame.

The Allied Shinobi Forces adopted Konoha's suggestion and uniformly replaced their Forehead Protector with the character "Shinobi," symbolizing the Shinobi Alliance Forces.

Of course, there was no uniform in combat attire; each village wore its own, resulting in a colorful and diverse Allied Shinobi Forces that resembled a ragtag army as they embarked on their journey.

After the troops successfully set off, Ren, who had already arranged and adjusted the work in the Experimental Building, returned to his clan's territory.

Inside the clan's territory, Ren looked at Fugaku facial features had softened considerably, and spoke solemnly.

"Thank you for your trouble, Fugaku- senpai. I've already informed my family and clan. You just need to play your part well!"

Fugaku didn't say anything, he just nodded seriously.

Seeing that there was nothing more to say, Ren concealed himself and headed out of Konoha.

After Ren left, Fugaku's body became distorted.

Before long, Fugaku had transformed into Ren, who was wearing the Hokage robes, and was walking towards the Hokage Building.

After reading Gamamaru's prophecy, Ren felt a rare sense of urgency.

Especially after seeing that the only failed prophecy of a major event required the power of two feathers, Ren could no longer sit idly by in Konoha.

All the main villains in the original work: Orochimaru, Orochimaru, Danzo, Nagato, Obito, Black Zetsu, and Kaguya.

If Ren still has to deal with these same people, Ren will still be able to clock in and out on time every day and just get by.

Anyway, most of the information about these guys was revealed in the original work.

Although Ren is still uncertain, he has already identified the Sage of Six Paths as his hypothetical enemy.

Not to mention that the old man in the original work didn't reveal much information, even if he did, Ren wouldn't believe it.

Ren didn't believe a word of the claim that the person was already dead and unable to interfere in the Shinobi World.

More importantly, all those bosses, regardless of their strength, shared a common label: losers!

The Sage of Six Paths is a successful person.

Ren didn't really have any good ideas. He couldn't help with the research anymore, since he had already told Orochimaru everything he needed to know.

Perhaps it was a rare sense of uncertainty that made Ren panic, or perhaps he simply wanted to find something to do and didn't want to waste time staying in Konoha.

After leaving Konoha, Ren wandered aimlessly, hoping to have some kind of adventure.

Of course, Ren wasn't just making things up; after all, his cheat ability seemed to be a system, and perhaps he could discover something in the Shinobi World.

Perhaps everything will be in vain, but it's still a little better than doing nothing.

And so, Ren embarked on his solitary journey through the Shinobi World.

There's no need to discern any direction; once he's chosen a direction, Ren just keeps moving straight ahead, regardless of what lies ahead or whether there's a road at all.

Jiraiya stamped his seal on document after document with a blank expression.

Now, Jiraiya fully understands what this Commander-in-Chief is all about—it's just a figurehead.

The command system had already been set up; all that was missing was him as a figurehead.

Jiraiya tried to refuse to stamp those orders, but even so, orders bearing his stamp still came out of command.

In Jiraiya's name.

After resistance proved futile, Jiraiya chose to personally stamp the document, at least to know what the Allied Forces were doing.

This is Jiraiya; anyone else wouldn't have received such comfortable treatment. He was someone who truly had to get things done.

Half a month has passed since we left Konoha.

The allied forces also arrived at the border of the Land of Earth and officially joined forces with another group of troops that had set out from various villages.

The document Jiraiya is stamping now is the one that has been incorporated into the other units.

Each ninja village has its own separate set of authority, and while the Allied Forces' command headquarters doesn't have absolute authority, it doesn't have much either.

At least in the initial unified operation, they were able to control the troops of each ninja village to some extent, but the main focus was still on coordination, and the headquarters was actually a coordination department in name only.

In order to coordinate among the villages, the right to know is essential, so all actions are recorded at the command center.

Jiraiya abruptly stopped his mechanical stamping motion, because he saw a familiar name on the document.
