Chapter 434 Post-War Summary: The Discontinuity of the Ninja Village?
"Uqihamadala!"
With a roar, Jiraiya suddenly sat up from his sickbed.
He opened his eyes and realized that he was no longer on the battlefield.
"Jiraiya-sensei, you're awake!"
Naruto, who was outside, heard the commotion inside and quickly pushed the door open and entered.
"Naruto? Aren't we on a battlefield? Where are we?"
Looking at the luxurious decor, the expensive ornaments, and the priceless silk quilt in the room.
Am I already dead? Is this heaven?
If I saw Naruto in heaven, wouldn't that mean Naruto was also...?
"Jiraiya-sensei, the war is over."
Naruto, with a somewhat complicated expression, told Jiraiya that the war was over.
"The war is over? How is that possible? You defeated Madara Uchiha, Obito Uchiha, and the Ten-Tails, Naruto?"
Jiraiya excitedly inquired about the result.
However, Naruto shook his head.
"Master Jiraiya, those things have nothing to do with us anymore."
For our ninja village, the war was already over when Madara Uchiha's Heavenly Meteor fell.
Everyone died, and the war naturally ended.
"this!"
Jiraiya recalled that shocking scene: a meteorite falling from the sky.
The First Hokage and the others worked together to barely withstand the impact of the first meteorite.
However, when the second meteorite fell, everything on the battlefield came to an end.
For a moment, Jiraiya's expression darkened.
Suddenly, a question came to his mind.
"Wait, what about Madara Uchiha and his group? Since they caused such a huge upheaval, it's impossible that they only did it to kill all the ninjas from the Five Great Shinobi Villages, right?"
Just as Naruto was about to speak, Kakashi and Tsunade's voices came from outside.
"Lady Tsunade?!"
"Kakashi? You're here too? Where are we?"
"I'm not sure, but it looks like it's in someone's house."
"Tsunade! Kakashi!"
Upon hearing Tsunade and Kakashi's voices, Jiraiya forced himself to get out of bed.
"Jiraiya-sensei, slow down, your injuries are the most serious."
Naruto quickly stepped forward to help Jiraiya up, and the two went into the living room. Kakashi and Tsunade were pleasantly surprised to see them.
The four sat on the sofa in the living room, and Naruto began to tell them what happened next.
What about Obito in Six Paths, Black Zetsu's betrayal, Kaguya's resurrection, and how he fought Kaguya with the help of the Sage of Six Paths, learning the history of the ninja world from Kaguya, and also discovering that Black Zetsu had been secretly guiding the development of history?
Later, the appearance of Chiba Tetsuya and the Sage of Rokudo led to a series of great battles, some of which were devastating. In the end, the legendary Goddess of the Rabbit was defeated by Tetsuya, who possessed the appearance of a sage, and chose to sit down and have a proper talk.
So, was all of this just us being used?
Tsunade was somewhat moved. She never expected that the five strongest ninja villages in the ninja world would be used as pawns on a chessboard.
In the end, all of them were abandoned.
"What a brilliant scheme! Did they even start planning this before the ninja village even existed? That Black Zetsu, or perhaps it should be called Kaguya's consciousness clone."
Kakashi felt that all of this was somewhat surreal; he never expected that the myths circulating in the ninja world would actually come true.
Not only did the Sage of Six Paths appear, but even his mother, the legendary Goddess of the Rabbit, appeared.
"So, that divine tree, and even the nine tailed beasts, are the keys to reviving the Goddess of the Rabbit?"
Naruto nodded in reply.
"After Obito successfully controlled the power of the Ten-Tails, Black Zetsu betrayed him and then directly attached itself to Obito, using him as a vessel to revive Kaguya."
Suddenly, Jiraiya discovered a crucial point.
"Wait a minute, Naruto, who is that older brother from the Chiba family you mentioned? Is he the Chiba daimyo from the Land of Grass?"
"It's the older brother from the Chiba family. He used to play with me and treat me to delicious food when we were little. The house we're temporarily renovating is his villa in Konoha."
Naruto thought for a moment and then said.
"Well, as for whether he is the daimyo of the Land of Grass, I can't be sure. After all, when I saw him, he looked exactly the same as when I was a child."
"Exactly the same?"
Jiraiya frowned.
"Both of the Chiba family members, whether it is the current Daimyo of the Land of Grass, Chiba Ryo, or the head of the Chiba Trading Company, Chiba Satoru, are quite old."
Just then, Kakashi spoke up.
"I think we shouldn't be dwelling on Chiba's age, nor should we be dwelling on the Sage of Six Paths and the Goddess of the Rabbit."
After all, to put it bluntly, their level is too far removed from ours.
What we should be discussing now is, what should we do next? What should Konoha do?
Upon hearing Kakashi's words, Tsunade and Jiraiya both lowered their heads and fell into deep thought.
Yes, other things are indeed important, but right now the more important thing is how to stabilize the village.
If the village is gone, then there's no point in them thinking about anything else.
"Oh right, Granny Tsunade, Jiraiya-sensei, and Kakashi-sensei, there's something I forgot to mention."
Just as the three were deep in thought, Naruto spoke up again.
"My older brother from the Chiba family once told me that when the time is right, he will revive everyone who died on the battlefield."
"what?"
"resurrection?"
"real or fake?"
Faced with the three people's questions, Naruto shook his head.
"I don't know if this is true or not, but if they really can revive everyone, then everything that happened on the battlefield can be reasonably explained."
I saw in Kaguya's past memories that the Divine Tree would extract everyone's chakra and transform all those whose chakra was extracted into White Zetsu.
The extracted chakra is transformed into Kaguya's power, and those who are transformed into White Zetsu can never turn back.
That's why Madara Uchiha used the battle as an opportunity to kill everyone, waiting to revive them all at the right time later.
After hearing Naruto's words, the three looked at each other in disbelief; this was truly outrageous.
After all, killing everyone in order to save everyone is simply too absurd.
But given that mythical figures like the Sage of Six Paths and the Goddess of the Rabbit have appeared, it seems to make some sense now.
"Let's not worry about that for now."
Jiraiya spoke up.
"Even if he could really resurrect everyone, such a huge number of people would probably not be able to be resurrected in a short time."
Let's talk about these things later. Right now, what we need to do is figure out how to reassure everyone in the village.
Jiraiya rubbed his temples. This time, the village had really played all its cards, almost emptying its coffers. The village's ninja force was severely depleted.
