Chapter 268 Signs of an impending world-ending crisis?
The morning sun shines on every inch of Konoha Village.
The Uchiha members of the police department diligently enforce Konoha's laws, overseeing both merchants and civilians.
No, it should now be called the Uchiha Fire Country Management Regulations.
Every Uchiha, when they think about how their clan left Konoha, established themselves in the Land of Fire, and built a vast city, their backs straighten involuntarily!
The speed at which police officers used batons to strike people was also much faster!
The Uchiha clan's mental illness is no joke!
This product has been personally certified by Tobirama Senju, a professional scholar of the Uchiha clan, and is absolutely authoritative!
Constrained by the Uchiha Yuuki lineage, the various factions and personalities of the Uchiha were relatively restrained, at least not to the point of resorting to ruthless violence.
However, there are far too many troublemakers in Konoha.
Various manipulative tactics are constantly emerging.
In addition, Uchiha Yuuki led Uchiha Moriichi, Uchiha Mikoto, and others on a mission.
Elder Chu Huo had already gone to Uchiha Castle to manage internal affairs.
Uchiha Shigeaki returned to the Nakagawa River and lived a semi-secluded life.
The unruly Uchiha clan, lacking checks and balances, became increasingly adept at using underhanded tactics.
Numerous bloody incidents occurred.
Of course, it wasn't the Uchiha who was bleeding.
Above the Hokage Rock stood an old man and a burly man, overlooking the entire landscape of Konoha.
"Jiraiya, where did Minato go?"
Jiraiya scratched his head, chuckling as he pointed to the shop entrances where a fight had broken out below: "Look over there..."
"Don't change the subject!" Hiruzen Sarutobi said seriously, not letting Jiraiya talk nonsense.
"He's been sent to Mount Myōboku for training. I believe Minato is very likely the Child of Prophecy. Let's send him there and have the Great Toad Sage make a judgment."
"You..." Hiruzen Sarutobi felt like he was about to have a heart attack.
A promising talent from Konoha has been sent to Gamabunta again?
Even if a genius like Minato Namikaze isn't a child of language, those toads would vaguely say, "He might be a child of prophecy." Hurry up and sign a contract with Mount Myōboku!
"Bring Minato back right now! How can a ninja go out without the village's permission? Have you forgotten the Konoha Ninja Regulations?"
Jiraiya muttered under his breath, "What Konoha Ninja Regulations? So many ninjas from the village roam the ninja world, why only mention Minato..."
This statement is both a complaint and a veiled inquiry into the situation.
The village changes every day.
Jiraiya simply couldn't get used to it.
After a few simple matters, Jiraiya brought up a major issue that affected the village.
"Old man, why did you treat Hatake Sakumo like that? Don't tell me you don't know who's spreading these slanders and rumors?"
“Sakumo… is still too idealistic!” Hiruzen Sarutobi explained with a headache, “When that strange crisis broke out in the village, Sakumo Hatake did not follow orders to completely deal with all those who had been parasitized, which caused the situation to get out of control and resulted in the deaths of more than thirty people!”
"This is the infamy he deserves!"
"Old man, this isn't about reputation!" Jiraiya said, "The Great Toad Sage prophesied that a new crisis is about to arise in the ninja world! No living being can avoid it, so we should all unite and face this crisis together!"
Hiruzen Sarutobi, his face grim, sized up his once-proud disciple.
His imposing gaze was fixed on Jiraiya, attempting to exert pressure and force him to abandon his ridiculous prophecy!
"That toad again?" Seeing Jiraiya's confident demeanor, Hiruzen Sarutobi finally broke down: "Ten years. You learned about the prophesied child from that toad. Have you found him yet?"
"What new crises have emerged now?"
"How many years will it take for this crisis to occur? Ten years, a hundred years, or a thousand years?"
Hiruzen Sarutobi said sarcastically, "Could it be that the Sage of Six Paths from a thousand years ago has been resurrected and will completely destroy the ninja world?"
Jiraiya was speechless.
"Think it over carefully!" Hiruzen Sarutobi patted Jiraiya on the shoulder and turned to leave: "The village is on the verge of death, yet you are still chasing after this so-called prophecy."
Upon hearing this, Jiraiya felt as if a cold rain had soaked through his heart; the village's life or death was at stake.
"Old man, what do you mean?"
How did the village come to the brink of life and death?
After they left, even more bombshell and gossipy news spread throughout Konoha Village.
The death of the Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju, had a hidden story!
Hiruzen Sarutobi and the other six, as former members of the Second Hokage's Shadow Guard, none of them died in battle, except for the Second Hokage who died on the battlefield!
Shadow died, but the Shadow Guard remained unharmed!
This major event, brimming with potential for conspiracy theories, instantly ignited the gossip-loving spirit of Konoha's citizens, and spread rapidly in the shadows!
...
Pure Land.
Countless transparent water mirrors floated beside the Sage of Six Paths.
Even in his soul form, the Sage of Six Paths is still invincible in the ninja world!
Perhaps they cannot fully unleash the power belonging to the Six Paths, but they can use some special ninjutsu with minor mechanisms without any pressure.
Each water mirror displayed a different image, and the Sage of Six Paths frowned as he selected a few of the most outrageous ones.
"The biggest variables in the ninja world are these few things."
Mizukami was excluded from playing Parasyte: Tyrant of the Nest.
Only the water mirror of the chimera ant remains!
The Sage of Six Paths did not find it surprising that some special creatures had emerged in the ninja world.
Chakra is truly extraordinary.
The Divine Tree and the Tailed Beasts brought even greater changes to the ninja world.
Random mutations are everywhere!
The ninja world's consciousness also occasionally pulls some tricks.
The Grim Reaper in the corner of the Pure Land is a brand new product created by the interaction of the ninja world's consciousness, chakra, and natural energy!
No one knows how many similar creatures still exist in the ninja world.
What's more troublesome is that these products of the rules contain a portion of the rules that maintain the stability of the ninja world.
Even the Sage of Six Paths wouldn't dare to destroy it at will.
It would be too troublesome to fix it later.
Therefore, he simply let go of the parasitic beasts and the insect hive tyrants, who had no 'historical background'.
"The Chimera Ant Clan, which appeared thousands of years ago, later came into contact with the Uzumaki Clan's ninjas, and their communication channels were sealed."
The Sage of Six Paths frowned deeply. No matter how hard he tried to recall, he couldn't remember any foreign race entering the ninja world a thousand years ago!
Logically speaking, alien races cannot bypass his and his brother's senses!
The Sage of Six Paths shook his head solemnly: "We cannot use common sense to infer the alien races. They may have bypassed the surveillance of the moon and the Pure Land with special techniques."
Within the water mirror, the Chimera Ants were engaged in large-scale steel smelting, continuously transforming the Rain Kingdom into a complete steel city.
"Transforming a small country into a nation of steel will have a negligible impact on the ninja world."
"It's not like we're building an iron fortress with chakra metal..."
The next moment, the Sage of Six Paths witnessed an unbelievable scene!
Ordinary steel, guided by non-chakra, transforms into chakra metal!
"This kind of method is absolutely not something that should have been born in the ninja world!"
The Sage of Six Paths targeted his mother because the ninja world had been drained of too much natural energy by the Otsutsuki God Tree.
The planet is on the verge of bankruptcy!
As a result, another major energy consumer has emerged!
