Naruto: As a genin, I just want to live a normal life.

Page 302

The repulsive force of the Rinnegan was incredibly useful. Both the black rod and Nagato were blasted away by Shirahoshi's repulsive force. However, at the very moment Nagato was hit, Otsutsuki Isshiki timely controlled his opponent and used the same Shinra Tensei, which prevented Nagato's physical damage from becoming too severe.

With a deafening boom, Nagato was sent flying backwards a hundred meters below, crashing heavily to the ground. The pressure instantly shattered several bones within his body. And this was despite possessing Saiyan White Zetsu cells.

He clutched his wounds, spitting out several mouthfuls of blood, and said defiantly, "I'll let you off this time. But I won't give you another chance next time."

Shirahoshi wanted to give chase, but was restrained by the suddenly appearing Chibaku Tensei black sphere, and could only deal with the black sphere first before making any further plans. Meanwhile, Otsutsuki Isshiki took the opportunity to use the black rod left in mid-air to get close to the black sphere, using his own control to keep the black sphere firing continuously, and allowing Nagato to regain his consciousness before quickly leaving the area.

......

And then, just as Shirahoshi had expected.

The moment he received Nagato, Isshiki Ōtsutsuki abandoned the base and disappeared without a trace.

......

The Fourth Shinobi World War is still raging fiercely.

The forces of the five great nations were largely tied down by the White Zetsu. Whether it was the ordinary White Zetsu that could absorb others' chakra and perfectly use the Transformation Technique, or the Saiyan White Zetsu that could grow to enormous size and cause destruction to the ninja army, they all caused the ninja army a lot of trouble.

It's evening.

The return of Shirahoshi was good news for everyone in the command center.

only...

"Grandpa? Second Grandpa?! How did you get resurrected again! It's you again, Orochimaru!" Seeing the First and Second Hokage, Tsunade felt both happy and sad.

Upon seeing Orochimaru, he couldn't help but want to rush up and punch Orochimaru in the face.

The Konoha ninjas greeted the three Hokage, while the Kumogakure ninjas wore wary expressions, ready to attack at any moment.

"It really is Tsunade. Long time no see."

The first Hokage, Hashirama Senju, in his Edo Tensei form, revealed a kind smile.

Then he looked at the others and said, "Don't worry, everyone, we are not the enemy, we are reinforcements."

......

After more than ten minutes of conversation, everyone learned that Shirahoshi had found the missing Anko and resurrected the dead Orochimaru—or rather, Orochimaru had never died in the first place, but was hiding in someone else's body, waiting for a chance to be resurrected.

Tsunade looked at Orochimaru with a complicated expression: "You are really despicable. You even schemed against your own disciple."

Therefore, the death of Nawaki in this world may have been inevitable, just as Nawaki in the past world chose to betray Konoha. In Konoha, there is no longer room for a Senju clan leader.

"Tsunade, what kind of scheme is that? I was just helping Anko absorb some useless energy." Orochimaru chuckled.

"Useless energy? I think it's life energy!" The Fourth Raikage began to mock from the side.

Orochimaru glanced at the brute and said, "Anko usually likes to eat sweets. The reason she can keep getting thinner... is because I devoured the excess carbohydrates in her body."

Orochimaru stated that he had a clear conscience.

"?" The Fourth Raikage asked, "What are carbohydrates?"

"?" Orochimaru glanced at the Fourth Raikage, his face twitching slightly. He thought to himself, "This brute doesn't know anything and yet he asks so many questions..."

"So, you're consuming sugar that can be converted into fat?" Mabui asked in surprise.

Orochimaru breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this. "That's right."

"Hmm. Red Bean has always been so thin. Cursed seals have this kind of benefit... Could you give me one to try too?" Tsunade thought for a moment, feeling inexplicably tempted.

Everyone: "..."

Is this the time to be thinking about this? We're at war!

Everyone silently grumbled to themselves.

Tsunade noticed it too, but turned her face away and pretended she hadn't said anything.

Soon, everyone began to discuss the situation of the battle. When they heard that Naruto and the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki were still inside the Turtle Island barrier, the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze, was slightly tempted.

"Um, can I go to Turtle Island?"

Tsunade glanced at Minato and nodded immediately: "Okay."

"Thank you, Lady Tsunade."

"You're too kind, Fourth Generation."

Just then, Tobirama Senju, the Second Hokage, suddenly said, "Orochimaru, can you still summon a monkey?"

Orochimaru said, "I don't know, the Impure World Reincarnation requires..."

"This is simple."

Before long, another of Bai Xing's clones disappeared from a certain battlefield. Upon learning the clone's identity, the others couldn't help but twitch their lips, thinking to themselves, "When did you send a clone into the team?"

Soon, Orochimaru used the Impure World Reincarnation technique again. But this time, Orochimaru was unable to resurrect the Third Hokage.

Orochimaru shook his head helplessly.

Shirahoshi stroked his chin: "It seems that the opponent has been sealed within the unique Yama realm of the Rinnegan. If we want to summon the Third Hokage, we must defeat him and release his soul from the opponent's Rinnegan soul space."

The Fourth Raikage: "What a terrifying technique! Can it even capture souls?"

Tsunade said to Shirahoshi, "Is this the power of the Rinnegan? You seemed to handle the Rinnegan quite easily back then."

Shirahoshi shrugged: "It's alright, it's alright. My main task is to deal with the leader of the Kara organization. Let Orochimaru and the three Hokage handle the specifics."

Without Pain's invasion, Tsunade and the others only knew a little about the Rinnegan; they didn't have much actual information.

At this moment, on Turtle Island.

Naruto completed the ritual to seize the Nine-Tails' chakra, and he and Killer Bee appeared together to break the seal on Turtle Island.

This news was also learned by Xuanwu, a member of the Shell organization who attacked Daming Prefecture not far away.

"We need to inform Mad Ape of this news."

At this moment, the Fifth Mizukage and many of the ninja guarding the Daimyo felt their strength waning.

"There are just too many people. And they are all former members of Akatsuki."

"Damn it, are all the Akatsuki members this strong?"

With almost the entire Akatsuki mobilized, the Fifth Mizukage's daimyo guards were no match for them, and even struggled to protect themselves. In the end, they could only retreat while covering each other.

However, the daimyo of the five great nations fared much worse. They simply didn't have enough stamina and were eventually caught up by the Kara organization and killed. Their orders were to kill the daimyo to lure out the Eight-Tails and Nine-Tails.

But unexpectedly, the Eight-Tails and Nine-Tails appeared ahead of schedule.

Regarding the orders, Ōtsutsuki Isshiki did not say he would not kill the daimyo, which means he will continue.

In a forest.

The ninjas who covered the daimyo's retreat were all killed in action.

Daimyo was surrounded by members of the Shell organization.

"No, don't kill me! How much money do you want? We'll give you anything..."

"Pfft!"

The clone Konan took out a paper spear and pierced the throat of the last surviving daimyo of the Land of Fire.

"Mission accomplished. Next step: assist the Mad Ape in collecting the Nine-Tails' chakra and complete the Ten-Tails."

"Ok!"

Everyone nodded.

As the war spiraled out of control, the command staff, upon hearing the news, were filled with gloomy disapproval – the war was not over yet, and their leader had been killed.

"Damn it! That damned Kara organization! They have such powerful cloning technology. We have to find a way to capture them and get information about their cloning technology!" The Fourth Raikage raised his hand in a rage, and with a loud bang, a V-shaped dent appeared in the middle of the table.

The Fifth Hokage, Tsunade, remained silent; she did not speak.

In response, Shirahoshi stated that the Fourth Raikage was truly a skilled actor.

Chapter 187 Shirahoshi's Target

The names of the five great nations are both important and unimportant to the five major shadow kingdoms.

The important thing is that the other party can provide the ninja village with a stable income to support its development.

It's not important that the other side only has this one function, and they will also be wary of your own ninjas and restrict their development.

The grief of the five daimyo who died was quickly dispelled by the numerous ninjas in the command center, who then began making subsequent arrangements, such as the direction of the Kara organization members' advance.

But at that moment, both the Fifth Hokage Tsunade and the Fourth Raikage learned of some news.

—Naruto and Killer Bee broke the barrier!

In response, the Fifth Hokage Tsunade and the Fourth Raikage could only rush towards Turtle Island to further obstruct the enemy. At the same time, the Fifth Hokage Tsunade hoped that Shirahoshi would pass this message to Minato.

Shirahoshi gave an OK sign, after all, Minato had one of his clones.

On the way to Turtle Island, Shirahoshi's clone suddenly stopped, and Minato Namikaze, who was beside him, also stopped involuntarily and asked, "What's wrong? Have we encountered enemies nearby?"

Bai Xing's clone shook his head, closed his eyes, deduced a direction, and pointed: "Let's go that way, it'll be faster."

Minato Namikaze was puzzled, but he followed anyway.

The two then traversed roads made of various rocky terrains.

As darkness gradually fell, the sky seemed to transform into a black screen dotted with tiny points of light.

Just as Naruto and Killer Bee ran out of a rocky area, two figures appeared in front of them, causing them to stop.

"What is that? Is it an enemy of the Shell organization?" Killer Bee said in a rap-like tone.

Suddenly, he noticed that Naruto beside him was acting strangely. He looked closer and saw that the other man was trembling and his pupils were constricted.

"Father? Is that you? Why...why was my father also resurrected through Edo Tensei!"

Naruto's golden chakra burst forth, unleashing a powerful aura.

Shirahoshi's clone picked at his ear: "Minato, it's your own son, why don't you fight him? I'll deal with that Eight-Tails Jinchuriki."

"?" Minato Namikaze asked, "Shirahoshi-senpai, is it really necessary for us to take action?"

Bai Xing's clone pondered for a moment, then tilted his head and said, "We came here to stop them from going to the battlefield, right? How can we not take action?"

As she spoke, Shirahoshi's clone's figure disappeared like a humanoid drawing made with a pencil, gradually erased by an eraser...
