Naruto entry

Page 668

Naruto handed the kunai to Sasuke, eager to see Sasuke's surprised expression.

Sasuke took it, and as expected, a look of surprise appeared in his eyes.

What kind of kunai is this?

Why is it so heavy?

"Hehe, this is a weapon worthy of me, Naruto Uzumaki."

Naruto's words were not malicious; he simply wanted to share the joy of receiving the gift.

Of course, there was also the thought of showing off in front of Sasuke.

Sasuke was losing face.

He was a person with a very strong sense of self-esteem, and he also regarded Naruto, this little genius, as his rival.

Now that they've been outmaneuvered by their opponent, they immediately felt resentful.

It's as if the two of them were destined to be incompatible.

A contradictory relationship where they are both enemies and friends.

"Hmph, what's so great about that? I can just ask anyone... Brother... No, anyway, I'm sure I'll get my own ninja tools eventually!"

Sasuke spoke.

He originally wanted to say that his all-powerful brother Itachi would give him equally powerful ninja tools.

Then I remembered that my brother was still studying at the ninja academy, so where did he get these things?

So he quickly spoke, wanting to say "Father".

Considering his sensitive status, he quickly evaded the question with vague words.

"Oh, really?"

Naruto scratched his head.

"Anyway, I'm going back to cultivate."

Naruto took the kunai back from Sasuke and was eager to go back to train.

"No, I also need to ask my mother if we have any good ninja tools at home."

Sasuke also started jogging home.

……

Hokage Building.

"It's been a long time, Hokage-sama."

"Just call me Kiyoshi."

Kiyoshi watched as Yahiko entered first from outside the door, followed by Konan.

"Haha, Mr. Kiyoshi, you still look the same as before."

Yahiko smiled.

The "Yin Seal" is really powerful.

It helps maintain a youthful appearance.

The marks of time are inevitably visible on his face.

The humid weather in the Land of Rain, coupled with daily mental stress, caused Yahiko to age much faster than the average person.

In comparison, Xiao Nan has also changed.

She has become more...mature.

She was covered in a black robe, revealing only her fair neck.

Even so, one can still glimpse her plump figure in her walking movements.

"Neither of you has changed much."

Qingsi smiled.

No one knows that his lifespan is much longer than others, and everyone thinks it is the effect of the "Yin Seal".

This saves Qing Si from having to explain everything one by one.

"So, you all must have important matters to discuss with Konoha after traveling so far."

Kiyoshi asked.

"Indeed, we do have important business to attend to."

Yahiko nodded.

His expression became solemn and serious.

“We discovered the movements of the New Dawn organization in the Land of Rain, and strangely enough, we found some people who should have been dead.”

As he finished speaking, Yahiko frowned.

This is blasphemy against the dead!

He was heartbroken to see Nagato entangled with the culprit who desecrated the dead.

"The Impure World Reincarnation Technique, perhaps."

Kiyoshi hits the nail on the head.

Besides these, the only techniques that can achieve such an effect are "Earth Release: Reincarnation Technique" and "Earth Release: Creation - Soil of the Dead".

These two techniques have similar effects to the "Impure World Reincarnation Technique," and Kazuma used them in the original work.

Kazuma is probably still part of the Twelve Guardian Ninja, working alongside Sarutobi Asuma.

"That's right, we also had a hunch that it might be this technique."

Yahiko nodded.

At first, he didn't know, but after collecting a lot of information, he was shocked to discover that the Second Hokage of Konoha had used such a ninjutsu in the past.

Later, it became so heinous that even Konoha stopped using it, and the technique was buried in history. Occasionally, ninjas who heard rumors about it would only listen to it as a strange tale or folk story.

“We are here to correct Nagato’s mistakes. If things continue like this, he will become more and more degenerate and fall into the Asura Path.”

Xiao Nan hesitated for a moment before speaking.

After all, Kiyoshi had already taken action to bring Nagato back, but Nagato later went out again on his own.

Honestly, Kiyoshi has already done enough.

"I understand. Continue to monitor Akatsuki's movements. If any problems arise, let me know immediately. Konoha will not stand idly by and ignore this cancerous tumor that is the New Akatsuki."

Kiyoshi said.

Because of his existence, the Akatsuki organization became more low-key than in the original story, remaining hidden in the ninja world.

"As for Nagato, if he can be spared, I will spare his life."

Kiyoshi said.

Madara's "Rinnegan" is still on Nagato's body.

Perhaps we can take it down and examine it to see if it can trigger any entries.

"Thank you, Mr. Kiyoshi."

Yahiko said gratefully.

"It doesn't matter."

Kiyoshi waved his hand.

"Since you two have come from afar, why don't you stay in Konoha for a few days?"

"Yeah...that's fine."

Yahiko spoke up.

He's never been to Konoha before, so taking a look around would allow him to learn about Konoha's management style.

When Konan thought about what happened between her and Kiyoshi, her expression became somewhat stiff.

"Xiyan, I'm entrusting the two members of the Akatsuki organization to you."

Qingsi said.

Upon hearing this, Uzuki Yugao emerged from the shadows and replied, "Yes."

"Let's go, Xiaonan."

Yahiko turned around and said.

Xiao Nan lowered her eyes and nodded slightly.

The two left the Hokage Building together and followed Uzuki Yugao to arrange their accommodations.

……

Konoha Police Department.

"I heard that the Akatsuki have sent people. Aren't the Akatsuki an internationally wanted organization?"

"That's Shin-kyo. It's said that it was founded by people who defected from within the Akatsuki organization. The two factions don't get along."

Inside the police department, some Uchiha clan members who were taking a break were chatting and joking.

Their daily duties include patrolling, but they mostly manage trivial matters, such as vendors snatching stalls, mothers hitting their sons, and sons reporting abuse.

Therefore, I am relatively tired mentally.

"These days, life is so comfortable that I'm almost not used to it."

Uchiha Tetsuka stretched.

"If you want to go back and fight the Third Shinobi World War again, no one will stop you."

Uchiha Inahi rolled her eyes at him.

Both of them awakened the three-tomoe Sharingan during the war, so they naturally knew just how oppressive that war, which lasted for many years, was.

This makes the peace all the more precious and hard-won.

"Then why does Captain Fugaku always look so sullen?"

Suddenly, Daohuo seemed to remember something and pointed to the innermost office.

Behind the door, their Captain Fugaku was still drinking to relieve his boredom.

Even though peace had arrived, the Uchiha clan had even produced a Hokage, and could be said to be thriving.

"Maybe it's because of Mikoto-nee."

Tie Huo spoke up.

He and Inahiko had personally witnessed Kiyoshi visiting Mikoto to wish her a Happy New Year.

So much so that when they looked at Itachi, the two of them always felt that Itachi's biological father was actually quite clear.

They are not gossipy people; they just keep these things to themselves.

"Sigh, why bother with Captain Fugaku? In the end, all he does is indulge in self-pity."

Inahiko couldn't understand why Fugaku, who was known as "Ferocious-Eyed Fugaku," seemed so weak.

"Shh, Captain Fugaku will be in big trouble if he hears this."

Tiehu made a shushing gesture.

"No loud noise."

The Eighth Hokage of Uchiha, who arrived later, glared at Tetsuka and Inahika, and the two lowered their heads dejectedly.

Then, Uchiha Yatsuho knocked on the office door, waited a while, and then pushed it open and went in.

"Captain Fugaku, this is this month's report."

The Eighth Hokage of Uchiha placed a report on the security issues that had been in place for some time on the table.

His most trusted confidant, Fugaku, was considered the second-in-command of the Konoha Police Department.
