Arrival in Konoha, Purpose? Of Course It Was to Destroy the World!

Konoha Village.

Hokage Rock.

Several figures appeared in an instant.

"Little Saiyan, this is Konoha."

Atop the Third Hokage's statue, Minato Namikaze, who should have been a warm little sun, was now staring coldly at a spiky-haired four-year-old boy as he spoke in an indifferent tone.

"So this is Konoha?" Ato took two steps forward and stood at the edge of the statue, gazing curiously at Konoha Village below.

As the center of the Naruto World's story.

The entirety of Konoha Village was as large as a modern city.

However, compared to the skyscrapers of a modern metropolis, most of the buildings here were made of wood.

The tallest building was the Hokage Building in the center of Konoha Village.

Looking at the bustling Konoha Village below, Ato's face was full of smiles.

This would be the starting point of his rapidly soaring combat power.

"Hey, Ato, you can let Kakashi go now, right?"

Minato Namikaze spoke with a cold expression.

"Do you care that much about your student?" Ato glanced at Minato Namikaze, then casually tossed Kakashi onto the ground.

"Kakashi, are you all right?" Minato Namikaze used the Body Flicker Technique to appear in front of Kakashi, his eyes warily fixed on Ato.

"Cough, cough..." Kakashi coughed with difficulty twice, then shook his head at Minato Namikaze to indicate that he was fine.

Minato Namikaze breathed a sigh of relief. Then, after giving Ato a deep look, he instructed Kakashi behind him, "Kakashi, leave this place immediately and report what happened here to Lord Third Hokage."

"Sensei, what about you?" Kakashi asked, looking at Minato Namikaze.

"I'll hold Ato back," Minato Namikaze said firmly.

"Sensei, your body right now..." Kakashi gave Minato Namikaze a worried look, only to be interrupted by his stern voice.

"Kakashi, carry out the mission!"

"Yes, Sensei." Kakashi responded at once, then quickly used the Body Flicker Technique to leave Hokage Rock.

Ato did not care about Kakashi's departure.

His attention was entirely focused on the Scouter.

The Scouter clearly displayed densely packed energy readings.

However, most of those energy readings did not exceed 30 combat power.

"Android 18, block energy readings below 30 combat power." Ato gave Android 18 an order.

"Understood, Ato." Android 18 responded, and 90 percent of the energy readings on the Scouter rapidly disappeared.

Ato first looked in the direction with the highest combat power.

It was inside a detached house in the center of Konoha.

There was an energy reading there with a combat power of 65.

"That direction... Kushina!" Minato Namikaze noticed where Ato was looking, and his pupils contracted sharply.

Because the direction Ato was looking at was unmistakably his home.

And the only person in his home was his wife, Kushina Uzumaki.

"Kushina Uzumaki? The initial combat power of the Nine-Tails' jinchuriki actually reached 65!" Ato glanced at Minato Namikaze and lightly tapped the Scouter.

Android 18 immediately gave the energy reading a special marker.

Then there was an area at the edge of Konoha Village.

Judging from its remote location, it should have been where the Uchiha lived.

Within the Uchiha Clan, there was an energy reading with a combat power of 58, making it Konoha Village's second-strongest combatant.

Uchiha, combat power 58.

It should have been the current head of the Uchiha Clan, the thirty-year-old Fugaku Uchiha.

Fugaku Uchiha's Sharingan should have already surpassed the three-tomoe stage.

"The Mangekyo Sharingan! I wonder what Fugaku Uchiha's ocular technique is." Ato marked Fugaku Uchiha's energy reading once more.

Then he turned his gaze toward the Hokage Building.

On the top floor of the Hokage Building, there was an energy reading with a combat power of 43.

Judging from its location, it should have been the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi.

Although Hiruzen Sarutobi had grown old, he could still maintain such high combat power.

When Ato thought of the Third Hokage, he suddenly smiled.

He smiled very happily.

Because he had thought of something that suited him perfectly.

"The Ruyi Jingu Bang!"

Or rather, the Third Hokage's Summoning Beast, the Great Ape King Enma.

It could transform into the Ruyi Jingu Bang, and the transformed Ruyi Jingu Bang possessed an Indestructible Body as well as the ability to extend, contract, and change shape freely.

During the Nine-Tails' Rebellion, the Third Hokage had used the Ruyi Jingu Bang to forcibly shove the Nine-Tails out of Konoha.

Ato was determined to obtain that Ruyi Jingu Bang.

After recording the energy reading of the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, Ato turned off the Scouter.

Other than those three relatively high combat power readings, the rest of the ninjas' combat powers were more or less the same.

Only after turning off the Scouter did Ato turn to look at Minato Namikaze, who was forming hand seals.

"Are you sure you want to make a move here?"

"Minato-san, have you forgotten how Bellflower Mountain City was destroyed?"

Ato folded his arms across his chest and spoke in a teasing tone.

Ato's words made Minato Namikaze freeze in place.

He recalled the terrifying scene of Bellflower Mountain City's destruction that he had seen in Inoichi Yamanaka's mental world.

Previously, he had not known how Bellflower Mountain City had been destroyed.

Now, it seemed that Bellflower Mountain City's destruction was absolutely connected to the little Saiyan before him.

After glancing at Konoha Village below Hokage Rock, Minato Namikaze finally let out a helpless sigh.

He completely gave up on the idea of attacking Ato in Konoha Village.

"Saiyan Ato, what exactly is your purpose?"

Minato Namikaze stared at Ato and demanded.

"I am a Saiyan, ordered to destroy this world."

Ato's body slowly rose into the air as he spoke expressionlessly.

"Destroy... the world?!"

Minato Namikaze's pupils contracted violently as he stared at Ato's small body in disbelief.

What had he just heard?

A four-year-old child was actually claiming that he would destroy the world?

"Why?" Minato Namikaze could not understand why Ato, a child, had such a dangerous idea.

"This is my mission, and it is also the Saiyans' duty!"

Ato's words finally made Minato Namikaze unable to hold himself back any longer, and he questioned loudly.

"A mission? You want to destroy the world merely because of a mission?

That is simply too childish.

And what exactly are Saiyans?"

Faced with Minato Namikaze's string of questions, Ato merely looked down at him and said coldly, "Saiyans are the universe's strongest battle race."

"The universe? Strongest? Battle race?" Minato Namikaze frowned deeply. He could not understand Ato's words at all.

Ato no longer paid Minato Namikaze any attention.

He floated into the air, then directly activated the Byakugan.

"Byakugan, activate!"

His originally black eyes instantly turned pure white.

And the world before him rapidly drew closer.

"Found it, Barbecue Q!"

Using the Byakugan, Ato easily found Konoha's most popular barbecue restaurant.

Boom!

A sonic boom rang out as Ato streaked toward the center of Konoha, trailing a white plume behind him.

It was time to have a huge meal.

"Minato-san, I'll leave the One-Tail Shukaku jinchuriki with you for now. Once I'm full, I'll come find you."
