Naruto: I Can Take People Through the Ninja World in the Future

[Time and Space: Third Hokage]

[Unity Progress: 16%]

In the Naruto world on the 3rd, in Konoha 63, August 6th, the day of the final selection of the Chunin Exams.

Lux felt dizzy as he looked at this initial integrated progress bar. It was far lower than the previous three worlds, not even reaching 20%.

Even when compared to the next world, it was still at the bottom.

Konoha could currently be said to be at its weakest moment.

It was even much weaker compared to the era of Minato.

Not to mention, Minato could hold off several Kage by himself.

Setting aside Danzo who was reluctant to take action, Jiraiya who was still wandering outside, Tsunade who was sick and addicted to gambling, and Naruto who was still growing.

Across Konoha, Hiruzen was the only one capable of producing Kage-level combat power.

When Hiruzen died, Konoha as a whole rapidly declined, even falling to the bottom position among the five great villages.

No wonder the progress of the Parallel World 3 unity was so low.

Lux even considered whether to change the binding power in Parallel World 3, like supporting Amegakure or other major villages.

But in the end, after weighing the pros and cons, he decided to give it another try.

At least now, there was a chance to change Konoha. If Konoha couldn't capture it, then just turn it into an investment stock.

This time, Lux only brought three people and landed in the forest outside the southern gate of Konoha Village.

They were:

Hashirama from Parallel World 1

Tobirama from Parallel World 2

Minato from Parallel World 4

All three Hokage were present.

"Sir, is this the village 62 years in the future?"

Hashirama looked around, very excited. It was a pity he couldn't take Madara for a time-space stroll; it would have been more fun.

When he saw the towering city walls of Konoha, its vast buildings, and the large training grounds outside the village, it was enough to prove Konoha's current prosperity.

Far beyond the time when the village was first built.

Of course, Hashirama's heart was filled with joy, like the satisfaction of seeing a sapling he planted grow into a giant tree in the sky.

He really had to invite Madara to see it!

It was a pity they did not know that this was merely false prosperity; they were already rotten and overwhelmed inside.

In contrast, Minato was much calmer.

After all, only 12 years had passed for him, Konoha had changed, but the changes were not so great as to shock him too much.

Moreover, what he cared more about was what Lux said when Konoha fell.

"Sir, what's the situation here? What did you say about the fall of Konoha?" Minato asked urgently.

Hashirama and Tobirama also quickly turned to the side, both worried about the village's survival.

Lux did not hide it and simply explained Orochimaru's "Konoha Collapse Plan."

In short: Orochimaru killed and disguised himself as Kazekage, and took advantage of the Chunin Exam opportunity to lead ninjas from Sunagakure and Takigakure to attack Konoha.

At first glance, it seemed there was no problem.

However, after hearing the specific process and results, the three of them were stunned.

Hashirama: "Ah? The village hasn't fallen? Is Saru playing around with his students?"

Perhaps in his eyes, the so-called true collapse was when he drove out the giant Buddha and swept the entire village.

This small fight seemed like child's play. The range of damage from his daily fights with Madara was N times greater than this.

"Wait a moment, let me figure it out."

Tobirama was more rational and liked to work backward from the results.

That is, the entire "Konoha Collapse Plan":

The Fourth Kazekage died suddenly, the armies of Takigakure and Sunagakure were almost wiped out, Sunagakure also exposed the weaknesses of Jinchuriki and their seals. After that, Konoha received a large compensation from the Land of Wind, and the reputation of Sunagakure was lost along with all domestic and foreign affairs collapsing.

And in Konoha, only a single-digit number of ninjas were killed in that battle, including the Third Hokage who committed suicide?

Does this mean Konoha collapsed?

Shouldn't it be called the Sunagakure Collapse Plan instead?

Moreover, Orochimaru is the traitor?

Is this person a traitor?

Is this called a traitor?

There are still many more traitors like this.

Tobirama felt dizzy, thinking that the world here was far more magical than his own world.

Minato felt very relieved to hear that Konoha was fine.

But it was also surprising.

"It was actually planned by Orochimaru. Did Orochimaru betray the village after my death?"

"But if I died on the night of the Kyuubi Rebellion, the one who should inherit the Hokage position the most would be Orochimaru, right?"

"Why is the Sandaime in power again? It shouldn't be like this!"

Minato shook his head and wondered; he didn't like to speculate maliciously about others, and he didn't expect the situation to turn out like this.

That's right!

Where is Naruto?

Hiruzen continued to be in power; he should be fine, right?

After all, he is also his son and Kushina's!

Hashirama sighed: "So, this is a small conflict between Saru and his student Orochimaru?"

"It shouldn't involve the whole village!"

"Orochimaru seems to not have harmed the village much. He must be a kind-hearted child, right? What if I go and persuade him?"

"We are both teacher and student; what conflict can't be explained?"

Hashirama rolled up his sleeves and prepared to be a peacemaker again; he was the best at stopping fights!

Tobirama explained: "Brother, this is not a contradiction. I think this might be Orochimaru's plan."

"He just wants to take this opportunity to prove himself to Saru as a teacher! At the same time, he can also weaken Sunagakure and stimulate Konoha's sense of crisis."

Tobirama, who was also a teacher, understood his students' thoughts very well.

Especially Danzo, who aspired to prove himself and gain Tobirama's approval.

Comparing with Orochimaru now, doesn't he seem like a student who wants to prove himself to his teacher?

Deliberately creating a barrier battlefield, challenging Hiruzen, revealing his true face, and showcasing various ninjutsu.

No matter how he looked at it, Orochimaru looked like an arrogant and psychotic top student, challenging a teacher who disapproved of him to prove himself.

See, I have mastered all the forbidden techniques you always said couldn't be done every day, right?

Teacher, times have changed!

❀❀❀

"Hah? Is this still possible?"

"Is that true?"

Hashirama was astonished. He had never had a student and did not understand conspiracies.

So he looked towards Minato, seeking answers.

After all, Minato had made contact with Orochimaru.

Minato spoke honestly: "It's possible, but I'm not sure. But from my side, Orochimaru has always been an exceptional Sannin of Konoha. He made significant contributions to the village in the Second and Third Ninja World Wars."

"I don't think he would actually destroy Konoha."

Hashirama nodded, thinking: "I see. It seems that boy's heart isn't bad."

"Could it be that Saru's teachings are wrong? But we can't let the teacher and his student kill each other! Let me stop them!"

Hashirama was eager to try and couldn't wait to stop the fight.

In the distance, to the east of the village, tens of kilometers away.

A strong chakra aura suddenly appeared!

"Is that the chakra aura of a Bijuu?"

"Ichibi Shukaku?"

"Is the Jinchūriki from Sunagakure out of control?"

The chakra perception ability of the third Hokage was very good, and they could detect the Bijuu aura in an instant.

But this was a bit troublesome.

On one side were Hiruzen and Orochimaru, and on the other side was the Bijuu very close to the village.

The threat of the latter was clearly greater and should be taken seriously.

Letting Hashirama hesitate a bit, where should he go first?

Is a wooden clone enough to kill someone?

One is not enough; how about ten? But if he exerts too much force, he will be sent back immediately!

"Okay. Minato, you go to Ichibi's side to attack."

"Me?"

"You're faster. And Naruto is fighting Ichibi!"

Hearing this, Minato's pupils shrank sharply, and he suddenly became worried.

How could a 12-year-old Naruto defeat a Bijuu?

Naruto is in danger!

He had to get there immediately!

If something happened to Naruto here, let alone himself, he would also feel pressured; Kushina would definitely tear him apart!

"Okay! I'll get there right away!"

"It's best to hide your identity and wear an ANBU mask or something like that. It's not appropriate for you to be exposed yet."

"Understood!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Minato disappeared.

His speed was so fast that Tobirama quietly clicked his tongue and felt more pleased.
