Konoha Village is no longer the bustling, densely packed town it once was.
After several devastating disasters, the entire village had long been forced to revert to a scattered and fragmented layout.
Fire Shadow Rock still stands tall, overlooking the scattered houses all around.
Tonight, the area around the Kurama clan's territory has been tightly sealed off by the Konoha Anbu in advance.
According to the official announcement from the village, an emergency drill simulating a planetary disaster is underway tonight to test the strength and resilience of buildings in various areas of Konoha Village.
Although the villagers had some complaints about this, most of them had long been used to it.
Some people even sat on the rooftop complaining, "Does it have to be such a loud noise at night? Can't they conduct the exercise during the day? It's so noisy, I can't even get a good night's sleep!"
Of course, they had no idea that tonight's so-called exercise was actually a fierce battle in the Kurama family.
As the smoke gradually dissipated, the lingering echoes of the powerful tremors still reverberated across the shattered earth.
The ground was littered with rubble and crisscrossed with gullies, a horrifying testament to the terrifying force of the collision that had just occurred.
Tobirama Senju slowly steadied himself, gazing at the dark green figure not far away.
This power is so pure it's unbelievable. It doesn't need any chakra assistance at all. Relying solely on his flesh and blood, he has already reached the level that his elder brother Hashirama did back then, and even surpasses him at the moment of its explosion.
Tobirama spoke in a deep voice: "A taijutsu ninja of the Eight Gates, why are you helping this monkey?"
Might Guy gave a slight, calm look, then flashed his signature bright smile, as if Tobirama's question was utterly strange: "Isn't this just common sense? Of course I obey the Hokage's orders."
This statement is an extremely pure answer:
That's perfectly reasonable.
This left Tobirama and Itachi Uchiha momentarily at a loss for how to respond.
In Might Guy's eyes, obeying the Hokage's orders was a matter of course.
Tobirama's heart sank.
The problem is that the power Might Guy just displayed has become so great that it's making things difficult for him.
If Yakumo Kurama cannot be taken away successfully, the subsequent plans will be severely hampered, and may even fail completely.
Just as Tobirama was quickly considering his next move, Might Guy suddenly raised his fist again.
Such a simple action caused the air to vibrate violently!
"not good!"
A sudden, intense sense of unease rose within Tobirama. He abruptly looked up at Might Guy, only to see the figure vanish in the blink of an eye.
Then it appeared before him with lightning speed, its fist pressing down with overwhelming force.
In the blink of an eye, Tobirama swiftly formed hand seals!
The art of nighttime movement!
Darkness surged forth like a tide, instantly engulfing the entire territory of the Saddle Horse tribe.
The boundless darkness completely swallowed up all the light. Might Guy's punch missed its mark and crashed into the ground, causing another violent tremor, and a large area of land instantly turned to dust.
Meanwhile, Tobirama and Itachi Uchiha took advantage of the moment when the darkness provided cover and quickly escaped.
The darkness quickly dissipated, and when tranquility returned, only Mighty remained in the Saddle Horse tribe's territory, solemnly gazing into the distance.
On the other side, Tobirama and Itachi had already retreated quickly, far away from the vicinity of Konoha, and only stopped when they were completely out of the danger zone.
Soon, Black Zetsu appeared on the ground...
"You're fighting in Konoha?"
Listening to Tobirama's account, Black Zetsu was also somewhat incredulous.
Mighty?
Does he have that much strength?
The Eight Gates Formation.
Black Zetsu memorized this technique...
"Danzo needs to retreat too... there's no need to get entangled with the monkey."
The night sky over Guyunchuan remained dark, and the wind howled mournfully.
The countless corpses and shattered ruins bear witness to this earth-shattering battle, which is gradually coming to an end.
Hiruzen Sarutobi slowly rose to his feet. His enormous ape-like body was covered in ferocious wounds, but his Sage Chakra remained strong, surging continuously and causing his wounds to heal slowly.
Behind him, three Buddha images slowly rose from the earth, each radiating light, standing quietly around Hiruzen like guardian deities.
Danzo's gaze was icy as he swept over the three Buddha statues. His Sharingan quickly detected the familiar chakra aura, and he instantly understood the true identities of these people.
"They're all familiar faces..."
One of the Buddhas slowly spoke: "Lord Danzo, return to Konoha. Konoha is your true home..."
However, this sincere statement was met with Danzo's merciless response.
His hands suddenly formed a mudra, and a terrifying wave of energy erupted, stirring up countless dust particles and pebbles, completely interrupting the Buddha's words.
After the shockwave subsided, Danzo stared coldly at Hiruzen: "Hiruzen, you never intended to hand over Kurama Yakumo from the beginning, did you?"
Hiruzen coldly stared at Danzo: "Aren't you all the same? Don't even mention me, even you yourselves probably haven't even seen that so-called Uchiha Nameless Sharingan in Tobirama-sensei's hand, have you?"
Upon hearing this, Danzo frowned, his expression becoming even more somber, but he did not refute it.
He knew perfectly well that Hiruzen Sarutobi was right.
Tobirama never truly revealed his trump cards to him.
Both sides harbored ulterior motives and were unwilling to reveal their true intentions easily.
Hiruzen Sarutobi saw through Danzo's thoughts but didn't point them out, instead continuing to speak...:
"We all know that this so-called deal was a scam from the very beginning. Neither Kurama Yakumo nor the nameless man's Sharingan will ever be handed over."
Hiruzen was even clearer in his mind that Yakumo Kurama's abilities were crucial to his future confrontation with Uchiha Abyss.
Even though Tobirama no longer controlled Konoha, Hiruzen never truly intended to hand her over.
He had already decided in his heart to continue guiding Yakumo's training, using it as one of the key bargaining chips to deal with Uchiha Abyss's final devouring.
At the same time, Hiruzen also deeply understood that Danzo, who was in front of him, was someone who needed to be won over.
Even though Danzo harbored deep resentment towards him, even though Danzo had now turned his back on Konoha...:
However, as long as Danzo still retains even a shred of affection for Konoha, he will still have a chance to return in the future.
Moreover, after the two finished their fight...:
The emotions and conflicts seem to have dissipated considerably.
After all, they are the people in the world who know each other best.
"Danzo, I am the Hokage, so if you are willing to return to Konoha... I will give you back everything except the Hokage title."
"In truth, you know very well that you and I have never truly betrayed the Will of Fire; we have simply chosen different paths."
Upon hearing this, Danzo revealed a self-deprecating smile: "Hiruzen, stop deceiving yourself. Konoha is no longer the Konoha I know. Your so-called Will of Fire is nothing more than a tool you use to control and manipulate."
"Think what you will, Danzo. But you are still my comrade. The path to Hokage has never been easy, and everything I have done is for the future of Konoha."
"You can come back anytime you want..."
Danzo did not respond immediately, but gazed at the distant sky.
A unique red firework burst open in the sky, dyeing the entire cloud layer red.
Upon seeing the signal, Danzo's gaze sharpened slightly, and his Tokotsumyaki chakra erupted violently, causing countless Tokotsumyaki to surge wildly from the ground, rushing towards Hiruzen like a torrent.
Using this powerful offensive as cover, Danzo quickly retreated and began his withdrawal.
As they retreated, Danzo's icy voice drifted back: "Hiruzen, one day, I will personally twist your head off!"
Hiruzen, however, was not enraged upon hearing this. He simply watched Danzo's departing figure and calmly replied.
"More important than these meaningless threats is remembering your original dream and the Will of Fire we made together. As long as you are willing, the gates of Konoha will always be open for you."
"Danzo, I hope that one day you will still remember our dream."
Having said that, Hiruzen slowly strode forward, stepping over the shattered bones scattered on the ground, and walked alone towards Konoha...
Inside the Kurama clan's territory, Might Guy was preparing to return to the inner room to bring the sleeping Kurama Yakumo back to the Konoha Hokage Building.
But just as he turned around, a powerful aura suddenly descended.
A ghostly, ethereal shadow silently appeared, distorting and deforming space!
Like a black vortex unfolding from the void, a man wearing a strange mask appeared beside Yakumo Kurama.
Kurama Yakumo slowly opened her previously dormant eyes, her gaze unfocused and empty. But the moment she saw Obito's blood-red Sharingan, she instinctively trembled, yet was completely unable to resist.
The terrifying power of his eyes had instantly taken control of her consciousness, completely placing her under Obito's control.
Might Guy sensed something was wrong. Without hesitation, he took a step forward, his fist gathering a powerful force like a tsunami. A terrifying shockwave exploded from his fist, violently surging towards Obito in an instant.
However, Obito had been calmly observing from a distance for a long time, so how could he easily take Might Guy's punch head-on?
His body instantly became ethereal and distorted, spatial fluctuations suddenly spread, and he disappeared from the spot like a dream bubble!
Might Guy's incredibly powerful punch missed its mark and slammed into the ground.
"The masked man!"
Matt Kai had already realized the seriousness of the situation.
If Yakumo Kurama falls into his hands, the consequences will be unimaginable.
Meanwhile, on the desolate, boundless land of the Land of Demons, a dark and icy aura enveloped the entire world.
Obito's figure quietly appeared. He released his grip, allowing Kurama Yakumo's body to slowly land on the ground.
He coldly began forming hand seals, his deep pupils filled with a chilling and evil light.
Kurama Yakumo's body slowly floated up, as if lifted by an invisible force, hovering in mid-air.
Then the demonic energy began to wreak havoc...
At this moment, the Sharingan light in Obito's eyes was bewitching and bright, constantly intertwining and converging around Kurama Yakumo.
What he sought was the unique bloodline of the Kamuma clan, which allowed for the transformation between reality and illusion.
"We've finally reached this point..."
"Uchiha Gen, your power, from this moment on, completely belongs to me!"
Driven by this power, the special Mangekyou Sharingan belonging to Uchiha Abomin on his body began to release an unprecedented and eerie radiance.
Obito had already completely mastered all of Uchiha Abyss's power within this Sharingan, but he knew very well that in order to truly achieve complete control, he had to completely remove the remaining Uchiha Abyss's will and chakra from the eye.
At this moment, Obito decided to borrow Yakumo Kurama's abilities to achieve this completely.
Using her ability to transform between reality and illusion, she completely extracted the remaining chakra from Uchiha Abyss within the Sharingan...
It materializes into a physical form, and then you destroy it with your own hands in reality!
As Obito's chakra continued to flow in, Yakumo Kurama's body became increasingly ethereal and elusive, surrounded by a strange and profound black vortex.
An extremely dense aura of evil chakra gradually emanated from her body, materializing into a vague human figure.
The evil power emanating from this figure was enough to make the world lose its color.
"Uchiha Gen...we meet again!"
As Obito finished speaking...
The sky suddenly tore open, and an indescribable, terrifying chakra instantly pierced through the clouds!
It crashed down upon the desolate land of the Land of Demons!
In an instant, the world changed color, and countless demons that had been drawn there seemed to feel an overwhelming pressure...
It suddenly exploded, turning into countless fragments of black energy that quickly flowed back and merged into the gradually appearing human figure.
In the land of ghosts, all ghosts sing together!
A chilling atmosphere...
Obito has decided to confront Uchiha Abe directly!
At this moment...
Long black hair gently swayed, and a familiar yet unfamiliar figure slowly appeared before Obito.
Although he was blind, the man's smile was exceptionally happy.
The Uchiha Abyss before me, though lacking a physical body and the iconic crimson Sharingan...:
It was just a ball of chakra...
But it made Obito feel a long-lost chill from the depths of his heart.
"It's been a long time, my dear brother, Obito."
"Now... you can choose one of two options, I'll help you fulfill your dream..."
Uchiha Gen raised his hand, a broad smile on his face.
"First...world peace..."
"Second...the revival of the Uchiha clan..."
