Time is a long river that never looks back. It flows forward courageously.
This passes through Konoha, passes through the Uchiha Clan land, and originates from the Naka River from Naka Shrine. Whether in the original work or now, it records the changes and development of the entire Shinobi World.
It was different from the last time when they had a fight just after they met.
This time, under the deliberate guidance of Hashirama Senju, and on the premise that Uchiha Madara knew that the other party was guiding but did not resist, the two came to this familiar river one after another.
Although after years of changes, there are no traces of Warring States Period here, and the river is not as wide as it was back then, the people around him have not changed.
"Do you remember what we said here?"
There is no real competition between Ban and Ban who can pee further. Adults still have to behave like adults. After all, Hashirama is also a grandfather, so Should Not still knows what to do.
I brought Madara here just because I wanted to have a friendly chat with this old friend.
"Konoha."
Uchiha Madara spoke in a leisurely tone, with a hint of nostalgia in his eyes. At that time, they were enjoying the future and wanted to rely on their own strength to protect their clansmen and relatives from being troubled by war.
They succeeded, but also failed. Facts have proved that human beings are selfish animals. Those who are selfless like Hashirama who can truly consider others and understand others are alien.
He Uchiha Madara also tried to trust and understand others, but he failed in the end. Just when he heard Hashirama and his brother arguing fiercely outside the window Hokage Position, his stupid brother repeatedly emphasized that letting Hashirama be Hokage is something that everyone agrees with, but if it were him Uchiha Madara on the other hand, everyone would not be satisfied.
That's when he knew how ridiculous Hashirama's philosophy was.
"We all failed."
Hashirama Senju smiled mockingly to himself. He understood what Madara was thinking. After all, he thought things were too simple. From the fact that a war broke out immediately after his death, he knew that people's ambitions would only grow. After all, he was not a real god. It was not easy to change the Shinobi World pattern.
But now, it no longer matters whether the move to establish the Ninja Village was right or wrong.
"But fortunately, my grandson-in-law succeeded!"
As soon as the conversation changed, Hashirama suddenly laughed, lying back with his back on the soil and looking up at the sky. The blue sky and white clouds, the fragrant soil, this is the feeling of being alive, this is the breath of peace.
He likes Shinobi World like this and has a new hobby. There is nothing wrong with contributing to the construction of Shinobi World. Maybe one day Shinobi World needs his power again and he will become a ninja again. This is what he thinks.
"Success is also temporary."
Ban crossed his legs and looked at Hashirama Senju inexplicably.
"Everyone makes mistakes. I don't believe that Hyuga Hitoshi will remain in its current state forever, and I don't believe that Sun God Country will always be able to manage Shinobi World in an orderly manner. As time goes by, people's ambitions will grow under the uneven distribution of resources. Especially when Hyuga Hitoshi himself has a problem, how will he solve it then?"
Sure enough, as long as people are alive, real peace cannot be achieved. They must either fight externally or continue fighting within themselves. Uchiha Madara also doesn't know what this Shinobi World will develop into in the future.
"So? What are you going to do?"
Hashirama looked at his old friend with interest.
What to do?
Yes
If Hyuga Hitoshi can't do it, what can he do? Continue to pursue the illusory dream world and let the world fall into sleep?
He is not a fool, nor is he an ignorant person. He is just as desperate for Shinobi World as Obito, so he is obsessed with Infinite Tsukuyomi to this extent, but now where I'm afraid Infinite Tsukuyomi doesn't need him to worry about it. Black Zetsu has clearly told him that Infinite Tsukuyomi's plan will be put on the agenda after Shinobi World Tournament.
This feeling of no participation made Madara suddenly feel a little bored, and he seemed to understand something.
Why did Hyuga Hitoshi do that when he knew Infinite Tsukuyomi was a dream?
After a brief analysis, we can see that there seems to be some hidden secret and Inside Information in the world-wide illusion, so what has he been pursuing all this time?
This feeling of suddenly not wanting to do anything but just want to lie down and be a mess
"You seem to be in over your head again, Madara."
The most valuable thing in life is to have a friend who truly understands you, especially after your loved ones have passed away, this friend can still stay by your side.
Even though Uchiha Madara didn't respond, Hashirama still saw that Madara was confused.
"We don't actually have to do anything."
Hashirama Senju patted Madara on the shoulder.
"Putting Shinobi World's peace and the stability of the world all on one's own shoulders, the pressure will make people breathless, and in the end they will fall into madness. We are only human beings, not omnipotent gods. Sometimes relying on others is not an unspeakable thing."
After the last fight with Madara, I got news from Madara again. It turned out that this guy had become Second Division Captain of Sun God Construction Site. It was voluntary labor without asking for compensation. He used the Wood Release obtained from him to continue construction for Shinobi World. In addition, he also expanded the territory of Shinobi World many times.
From this point alone, Hashirama knew that his friend had not changed from beginning to end. He yearned for World of Peace just as much and was still working hard for Shinobi World's future.
So now he is very patient and calmly chatting with Madara about the past and the future.
"But Hyuga Hitoshi, that guy is also me."
"You're wrong, Madara."
Before Madara could even finish speaking, Hashirama shook his head.
"People don't do everything by themselves. Tsunade mentioned this to me. My grandson-in-law, Tenten, is very leisurely. In addition to formulating the general direction, he occasionally thinks of something and asks Secretariat to record it. There are professional people below to conduct research and testing, extending from one stronghold to the entire Shinobi World."
"Now Sun God Country has a complete operating system. I suggest that you don't have to stick to the construction site. Being a public servant can actually play a greater role for you. Aren't you worried that Hyuga Hitoshi's thoughts will go astray one day? Why not go to that guy and seek a position yourself, and just talk to him directly if you have any questions in the future."
Hashirama said with emotion.
"That guy is not someone who can't listen to other people's opinions."
The end of the universe is the establishment.
This is not just talk. Hashirama Senju sincerely wishes those who want to take the public examination can get on board as soon as possible.
"But there is one thing to say. If you really make up your mind, you'd better have a good chat with leader Nagato. At least you are the one who gave him pain in the first place. This is a sin you need to pay for."
This is also for the harmony of Within the System.
Of course, as for whether Nagato can forgive Madara by then, Hashirama cannot guarantee this. After all, neither Madara nor Obito showed mercy at all when they attacked Nagato.
But this time Hashirama would not open his mouth to make Nagato understand Madara, and would say weird words that made Nagato let go of his hatred.
"Let's talk about it then"
Seemingly unable to face that guy Nagato, Madara shook his head and slowly stood up.
"Let's go, it's almost time to rest. I don't know what happened to that guy Izuna Sasuke."
There's really nothing I can do about you.
Hashirama scratched his head helplessly, "Actually, if you miss Izuna, you can continue to perform meritorious service and accumulate points in exchange for Resurrection Slot, and resurrect Izuna as well."
Resurrect Izuna?
A flash of light flashed in Madara's eyes, but he gave up the idea after just a moment.
How to say it?
When a person who has been dead for decades appears in the future world, his first reaction is not joy, but the fear of facing a strange world. He needs to understand and accept this world from the beginning.
If Izuna is still alive
After looking at Hashirama, I thought of Hashirama's bastard brother, and then I thought of Uchiha.
He knew his brother.
Forget it, let's talk about this later.
"This is not what he wanted."
Turning around and waving, Madara only left Hashirama with his back.
After reminiscing about old times, I felt a little worried.
And at the same time.
Land of Fire on the tree-lined path.
Team 7 led by Kakashi is on his way leisurely,
"Before the establishment of Sun God Country, Land of Waves was a Isolated Island Nation with a poor economy and poor people. There was only one bridge connecting the entire country to the outside world."
"And that country did not have its own ninja village. Instead, it was occupied by the rebel ninjas of Various Ninja Villages. It was relatively chaotic. This situation only changed after they joined Sun God Allied Nations. The economic conditions also improved due to the development of the surrounding sea areas."
On the way forward, Kakashi, who is Leading Jonin, shared information about this mission.
"However, the most famous thing about their country is the main target of this mission. Bridge Building Master Tazuna, Sun God Country attaches great importance to such talents. They also have support from the project. They will design architectural ninjutsu based on the prototype given by the architect, and let them join in the discussion of ninjutsu."
With the development of the world, ninjutsu must also keep pace with the times. In fact, to a certain extent, with the support of scientists who have Scientific Ninja Tools, it may not be impossible to develop a technique similar to Wood Release Three Rooms and One Living Room. The effect may even be better than that of Hashirama, and the data is more suitable.
"But generally, that kind of Bridge Building Master will not become the target of some people."
After looking at the three team members around him, Kakashi said with a vague look.
He was reminding his team members in disguise, telling them that this mission was not simple.
Although Tazuna is considered a talent, it does not attract too many people's attention, and Shinobi World has many master architects. The loss of contact with the target this time and the unusual behavior of Land of Waves make it look like a conspiracy no matter how you look at it.
"Kakashi-sensei, are unknown-level missions always so exciting?"
A few years have passed, and the once violent girl has begun to grow up, but this time her eyes have not stayed on Sasuke, but have been watching Sasuke's father, and she has been determined to participate in the subsequent Konoha Maid Selection competition, with the goal of entering Maid Squad of His Majesty Sun God.
"It's just an example, but it will not be lower than B level. The probability of encountering a ninja is infinitely close to 100%."
Kakashi explained patiently.
Destiny is a bit elusive. In fact, due to the departure of the Hyuga Clan, Konoha 12 in the original book fell apart. It is also because of the previous discussion of Shinobi World Conference that the people below have submitted a team reform plan for groups of three. I believe that teams of three will become a thing of the past soon, and the allocation of teams will be more scientific.
After all, no matter how you look at it, a clown will appear in a team of three, which is not very humane, especially the allocation of two men and one woman, which invisibly puts pressure on the two male team members to compete. This will only have a counterproductive effect during the execution of the task. There is really no need to keep this tradition.
Therefore, the Kakashi team can be said to be the last traditional grouping of Konoha.
"I can't wait any longer."
Next to him, Naruto clenched his fist and his face flashed with excitement. However, while he was excited, he also glanced at Sakura secretly. Some of the boy's thoughts were already expressed, and Kakashi looked helpless.
no way.
He can teach Naruto how to be a dignified person correctly, teach him to fight back with fists when faced with bullying by others, and make him understand that dignity is not achieved by others' understanding, but by fists. He can also make him never be called Demon Fox kid again under his own education.
But when it comes to matters like personal relationships, he has remained single for so many years and can only practice handicrafts by watching Icha Icha Paradise in the middle of the night. He is not qualified to educate Naruto.
So before Team 7 was established, he strangely discovered that the statement that a clown must appear in a group of three, which had been discussed at a meeting, actually appeared in his team.
It can only be said that even without the influence of Asura, some emotions cannot be changed.
But fortunately, unlike the original Sakura, who always uses Naruto's feelings to ask him to do certain things intentionally or unintentionally, the Sakura of this time and space is different from Ino and the senior Tenten Senpai had agreed to join Maid Selection at that time, so when Naruto had signs of this, he justly told Naruto that he was not interested in him, and only Sasuke's Dad was in his heart.
But he couldn't stand it. Naruto, as the protagonist in the original work, had no other advantages. He had to be stubborn. He didn't continue to pester Sakura after he rejected him. He just silently prayed that Sakura would lose in Maid Selection.
He planned to transform into a warm man to appease the other party, but he didn't know that the so-called warm man was still behind the licking dog. Sakura and Ino agreed that they would continue to run for Maid Selection until they were thirty-five years old. If they failed in the end, they would die alone together.
So the clowns in the team seem to have been doomed from the beginning, which makes Kakashi have to admire His Majesty Sun God's foresight. If this three-person grouping of two men and one woman is not ended, there will be many more clowns and lickers in every session. What should Shinobi World do in the long run?
This thing is like all the technicians going to live broadcast, and no one returns to the real economy. What will the bathing center do? What should single people do? It's all metaphysics here.
However, Kakashi believes that Minato Sensei's child will wake up and grow from this incident and become an excellent ninja.
Hmm. As for Sasuke
This guy is unexpectedly sensible, especially after Sakura made it clear that he would participate in Maid Selection, his attitude towards Sakura became even more respectful. If Sakura hadn't said that they could discuss things on their own terms, I'm afraid Sasuke would have had an extra baby girl come out on the spot.
But overall, although the atmosphere at Team 7 is a little weird now, it is still passable. Naruto raised topics from time to time along the way, but Sakura just held Maid Textbook to study hard and only occasionally responded with a few words. Sasuke looked serious and guarded the surroundings and did not participate in their topics at all. It seemed that he took this task very seriously.
Finally, the journey was uneventful. They crossed the bridge leading to Land of Waves and arrived within the scope of Land of Waves. The leisurely traveling time was over, and the exciting task phase came next.
As Sasuke, who had blocked her aura and turned on Byakugan, shouted, the group of four instantly changed formations and became alert.
The original Team 7 did not have detection methods, but because of the strong stimulation his brother had given him, he successfully opened a special Byakugan in Night of the Uchiha Clan Massacre Sasuke, which made up for this shortcoming. The Naruto relied on the resilience of Nine-Tails Chakra and the durability of the original Uzumaki Clan to act as a human shield.
Sakura has taken out his gloves and put them on, ready to use Monster Strength to deliver a fatal blow. As the leader in Ninja School's theory class, she also possesses Medical Ninja's talent and power monster attributes can be regarded as Mutated Constitution of the Haruno Family, who was also fortunate enough to be taught by Tsunade in Ninja School.
However, unlike the original work, which places Kotoamatsukami Sakura on himself from beginning to end, Sakura has already understood the gap between ordinary ninjas and Kekkei Genkai ninjas through systematic study, and will not choose to force himself.
Gua~
Gua~
The dark crows fled in all directions, but the unpleasant cries made Sasuke next to him slightly stunned. Then when the crows gathered, a figure slowly appeared in front of him. The familiar and unfamiliar figure made Sasuke open his mouth involuntarily, but the next second there was a warmth from the mark on his forehead, and the surrounding scene instantly shattered.
It's an illusion again!
My stupid brother never seemed to know how to say hello any other way.
Sun God Seal exuded Gentle Power, Sasuke made a fist with one hand and let out a low cry. The next moment, Naruto and Sakura, who were trapped in the illusion, also woke up from the low drink.
Kakashi, on the other hand, did not need Sasuke's help and was not even affected. Instead, he turned around and looked behind him.
I don't know what time it was, but a familiar person also appeared there.
Fated Showdown is here again.
Kakashi had already lifted Forehead Protector without any explanation, and looked coldly at Obito who had fallen into the darkness, while Naruto and the three others also looked at Uchiha Itachi.
"My stupid brother."
Sasuke took a deep breath and looked at Itachi with a slightly complicated look.
And Itachi looked at Sasuke with a bitter look.
He never expected that after he clearly passed the information to the village, Konoha sent someone over to investigate, and the person sent was his brother!
That's outrageous!
What made him even more uncomfortable was that he wanted to use illusion to convey information to Kakashi and the others, but the illusion was lifted by his excellent brother before he could even speak.
What now?
Obito was nearby, and Itachi, who had seen Obito's strength, was in a dilemma.
And just as he was speaking, his excellent younger brother who had ruined his affairs also tortured his soul.
"My stupid brother, how far have your eyes looked so far?"
The figure moved like the wind. When the dazed Itachi came back to his senses, Sasuke had already appeared in front of him, raised his fist that was enough to blow up Susanoo and hit him hard.
This distance should be able to be avoided with Body Flicker Technique, right?
However, why do I suddenly feel a little tired from life for no reason?
In the end, even if he was undercover, nothing seemed to have changed, and there was no special meaning in doing so. It was as if all the decisions he made were wrong.
This awkward thought made Itachi suddenly lower his raised fingers.
It seems that falling under the fist of Sasuke is not something that cannot be accepted?
The fists are getting closer.
But the next moment, what puzzled Itachi was that the scorching blast of flames slammed hard against his side.
Boom!
Bang bang bang bang!
Along with a muffled sound and angry shouts, the sound of fists and feet clashing came from behind. Suddenly looking back, Sasuke had already started fighting with a tall man over two meters tall, with a strange appearance and a horn on his forehead.
This punch was not aimed at him?
And that person... isn't that the servant of the person who calls himself Otsutsuki and calls them untouchables?
Why is he here?
Also
For a moment, Weasel's frustration arose spontaneously.
Judging from the calm and expected expression on his younger brother's face, it seems that he...
He didn't regard his brother as an opponent at all!
Think about the sentence "How far can your eyes see now?"!
This is really ironic.
