All Hokage in The Chat Group

Shortly after completing its journey, the spaceship smoothly landed back at the predetermined near Hokage Mountain.

As Ryan and Minato stepped out, they were greeted by a scene of celebration. Excited scientists cheered loudly, their faces glowing with pride, while numerous ninjas gathered to witness the historic moment. Orochimaru and the other researchers couldn't hide their joy.

"Excellent! This time, it was a complete success!" Orochimaru exclaimed, his voice full of enthusiasm.

"Absolutely," Tetsuya agreed. "With this breakthrough, we can confidently advance our exploration efforts!"

The mood was euphoric. This success wasn't just a milestone—it was proof that the years of research and development had been worth it. Their chosen path had been validated, and the team now had a clear direction for the future.

With a working prototype, the road ahead seemed promising. Progress would now depend on time and dedication, but the hardest part was behind them. The scientists were visibly elated, energized by the prospect of what lay ahead.

Ryan took the opportunity to acknowledge their efforts, rewarding and encouraging the team to continue their groundbreaking work. His words inspired everyone, strengthening their determination to push forward.

The implications of this technological achievement extended far beyond its immediate success. For the first time, even ninjas of modest strength—such as Genin and Chūnin—had the potential to thrive in this new era.

There was no longer a fear of being overshadowed or left behind. The emergence of this technology offered countless opportunities for personal and collective growth.

Even ninjas with limited combat ability still possessed the power to harness chakra. In this world, chakra wasn't just a tool for battle—it was a versatile energy source with limitless applications.

This realization underscored the value of every individual. It was clear that their contributions would not only remain significant but grow even more essential as Konoha stepped into a new age of innovation and exploration.

..

In the world where Kakashi became the Hokage after dethroning Hiruzen, his reputation skyrocketed after the last major scuffle with Akatsuki's undead duo.

Strength is often recognized through comparison. Before this fight, as Hokage, Kakashi had rarely needed to demonstrate his abilities. Many ninjas assumed his strength was on par with an elite Jōnin from Anbu.

However, his recent confrontation with members of the Akatsuki shattered those misconceptions. During the battle, Kakashi proved himself beyond a shadow of a doubt. His overwhelming strength left no room for debate.

Hidan, for instance—an immortal kage-level shinobi who had previously overwhelmed several Jōnin—was utterly powerless against Kakashi. In a single exchange, Hidan was neutralized, losing his ability to fight entirely.

Even Hidan's partner, Kakuzu, known for his ruthlessness and durability in bounty hunter circles, met the same fate. Both were defeated decisively, showcasing Kakashi's true capabilities.

As news of the battle spread through the village, the perception of Hokage Kakashi transformed. He was no longer seen as "just another Anbu Jōnin," but as an undeniably powerful leader.

Now, as Kakashi walked through the streets of Konoha, villagers and ninjas alike looked at him with newfound admiration. Their respect was evident in their gazes, though the attention left Kakashi feeling slightly uneasy.

After returning to his office, Kakashi found the Captain of the Anbu, Shirnau Genma waiting for him.

"What's the matter?" Kakashi asked.

Genma rarely disturbed him without reason. If they were here, it meant there was intel—or trouble—that required his immediate attention.

Sure enough, Genma handed him a scroll. "Hokage-sama this is the latest intelligence on the Akatsuki organization. Since their last encounter, when their two members fell by your hand, the group went quiet for a while. But recently, they've been spotted wandering around the Land of Wind. It seems they're searching for traces of the tailed beasts."

Hearing this, Kakashi nodded thoughtfully. "As expected," he replied, his mind already racing with the implications of their movements. Kakashi had already anticipated Akatsuki's next move.

It wasn't due to any extraordinary calculations on his part, but rather because of the invaluable info provided by other members of Hokage Chat Group.

In this group, Kakashi had access to numerous Hokages from different timelines and realities, all of whom were seasoned veterans. When Kakashi sought their advice, they readily shared their knowledge and experiences with him.

The information provided by Naruto during their last discussion was particularly illuminating. Akatsuki's goal was clear: they were after the Tailed Beasts.

By capturing all the Tailed Beasts and sealing them into the Gedo Statue, they intended to summon the Ten Tails. The ultimate objective was to create a Ten Tails Jinchūriki, a step that could potentially shift the balance of power across the world.

Kakashi understood that regardless of the world or timeline, Akatsuki's plan remained the same. This knowledge allowed him to formulate an effective counter-strategy.

After his decisive victory over Hidan and Kakuzu, Kakashi took immediate action. He deployed teams of ninjas to secure the Jinchūriki across the world, ensuring their safety under heavy protection.

Even Gaara, the One Tail's Jinchūriki, was brought to Konoha and placed under the strictest security. Kakashi made certain that Akatsuki would find it nearly impossible to infiltrate the village.

Meanwhile, in the Land of Wind, Kakashi orchestrated a clever diversion. He created a false trail, making it appear as though Gaara was looking for a new source of gold veins in the desert. This bait was designed to lure Akatsuki's operatives into a trap.

Now, it seemed the plan was working perfectly. A messenger arrived with urgent news, prompting Kakashi to rise from his seat immediately.

"I'll handle this personally," he declared, his resolve unwavering as he prepared to confront Akatsuki once again.

According to the information provided, it was no surprise that Deidara and Sasori would be the ones assigned to capture the One Tail.

When compared to Hidan and Kakuzu, their overall capabilities were similar. In some respects, however, Deidara and Sasori could even be considered slightly less dangerous—provided one had prior knowledge of their abilities.

Hidan's unique cursed ninjutsu made him lethal in situations where his opponents didn't know how his techniques worked, as even a minor injury could result in certain deaths. Meanwhile, Deidara's strength lay in his explosive creations, and Sasori was a master of puppet techniques. Though both had elevated their respective skills to an apex, Kakashi knew how to deal with them effectively.

Confident in his plan, Kakashi decided to intervene personally.

Not long after, in the barren expanse of sand dunes, two figures clad in black cloaks adorned with red clouds moved slowly through the desolate landscape.

As Kakashi anticipated, it was members of the Akatsuki organization. One was a young man with fair hair—Deidara. The other, with a cold and menacing appearance, was Sasori, concealed within his puppet body.

"We've found it!" Deidara exclaimed with excitement, his sharp eyes locking onto a distant figure.

"That's the trace of tailed beast Chakra! Shukaku's jinchuruki must be nearby." The two Akatsuki members moved swiftly toward their target: a ninja who bore a striking resemblance to Gaara.

However, what happened next caught them off guard. The supposed "Gaara" offered no resistance and was quickly captured by the pair. Yet, the moment the figure collapsed, it vanished in a puff of white smoke.

"A Shadow Clone!" Deidara snarled, realization dawning on him. His frustration was evident as he gritted his teeth.

Sasori, ever composed, narrowed his eyes. "This is wrong," he muttered darkly. "They knew we were coming. It's a trap."

As the words left his mouth, the sound of whirring mechanisms and projectiles suddenly filled the air. From all sides, hidden weapons shot toward them.

Reacting instantly, Deidara and Sasori moved to defend themselves, their calm demeanor now replaced by an urgency to counter the ambush.
