Chapter 307 Uchiha Madara—Edward Newgate!
Chapter 307 Uchiha Madara—Edward Newgate!
Ninja world.
The Konoha group lay in wait on the border between the Land of Fire and the Land of Rain.
According to the currently confirmed information, the headquarters of the Akatsuki organization is located in the Land of Rain, and its leader is a being with the Rinnegan.
Even more frightening is...
The Wood Release expert who helped Konoha withstand the Almighty Push actually chose to join the Akatsuki!
With a large number of pirates attacking the ninja world, only the Land of Fire and the Land of Rain do not need the protection of the World Government's Navy.
This is all due to the awe-inspiring reputation of the two generations of the world's strongest.
That white-bearded old man was no ordinary old man as he claimed. When the pirates who invaded the ninja world learned that he was still alive, they were terrified.
The title of "strongest" that has lasted for decades has left a deep imprint.
……
"The intelligence brought back by the advance team indicates that the chaos in that world is even greater than that in the ninja world, with large-scale battles involving tens of thousands of troops occurring frequently."
On a drizzly morning, Kakashi was talking by the fire in the cave.
"That world is enormous; finding Sasuke wouldn't be easy, let alone..."
Kakashi gave a wry smile: "Sasuke and Hinata seem to be doing quite well there, especially Sasuke. It sounds like he's being groomed by that man as his successor."
"According to those pirates, they see Konoha as the New World Army's ninja base, and strictly speaking, we are all subordinate units of Sasuke."
……
"How can you take such a one-sided declaration of dominance seriously...?"
On Naruto's shoulder, there was a tiny Minato opening, no bigger than a fist.
His chakra was exhausted and about to dissipate. He had already said his parting words, but Kurama (the Nine-Tails) replenished his energy.
Translating Kurama's abusive language into its normal meaning, it roughly translates to, "You're not entirely stupid, at least you're capable of dealing with that evil Uchiha."
In return, Minato needs to undo the Reaper Death Seal and release the other half of the Nine-Tails.
He always believed that he lost to Allen because he was only at half his strength, and that he would definitely be able to fight him when he recovered to his full strength!
After spending this time together, Minato realized that Kurama was not inherently evil and agreed to the deal.
As Minato knew, the key to breaking the Shiki seal lay in finding the Mask Hall of the Uzumaki clan and using the corresponding Shinigami mask to unlock the seal.
The records related to Konoha have been lost; they were written by Orochimaru.
Following this lead, they have been tracking Kabuto Yakushi, who absconded with all of Orochimaru's assets.
……
"Let's talk about that later... The question is, why is Kabuto going to Amegakure? Is he going to join Akatsuki?"
Kakashi, seeing the miniature teacher deep in thought, resisted the urge to reach out and pat him, and turned his head to say, "Kabuto Yakushi is a dangerous person. His purpose in going to Amegakure must be quite something."
"yes……"
Minato stroked his chin and said in a deep voice, "I have a bad feeling, a feeling that I'll run into that person..."
"You mean the mysterious person who caused the Nine-Tailed Fox's rampage?!"
Minato nodded: "That person's goal is the Tailed Beasts. The Akatsuki organization is also capturing Tailed Beasts. That person is very likely the mastermind behind it all, secretly guiding the Rinnegan."
"Based on my impression of that person, he is the type who is easily influenced. After Mr. Whitebeard joined Akatsuki, they didn't do anything significant."
"Perhaps... we can have a proper talk with the Akatsuki."
"How could we possibly talk to them! That guy killed the Perverted Sage!!" Naruto retorted indignantly, "Have you forgotten about that, Dad?!"
……
Minato was silent for a moment, then said slowly, "How could I forget? But Naruto..."
"Don't let hatred cloud your judgment. The current situation is far more complex than any previous Shinobi World War."
"With the frequent appearance of exceptionally strong combatants, ordinary ninjas are no longer of much use. If Konoha wants to continue to exist, it must unite with powerful individuals."
The battle that took place on the border of the Land of Wind has clearly shown the people of the ninja world a reality.
Actually, this can be seen even earlier, from the fact that Kumogakure was easily defeated by Kaido alone.
The war mode is no longer like the previous Shinobi World Wars, where it was about competing for resources and population.
Instead, it returned to the Warring States period of the ninja world...
The outcome of the battle between the strongest determines the course of the war!
Unfortunately, the super-powerful fighters appearing now are all from other worlds; the ninja world doesn't have strong figures like the First Hokage and Madara Uchiha.
Minato looked at Naruto with a serious expression: "Naruto, you must grow stronger quickly!"
"Only when you fully control the Nine-Tails' power will you have the ability to protect everyone in the village!"
Naruto's expression darkened, and he hung his head dejectedly: "I know... but I couldn't protect Sasuke, and even Hinata was..."
……
Minato frowned slightly.
That defeat greatly affected Naruto's mindset, and as his thoughts raced, he realized that he himself was also affected.
Because he was still alive, Naruto subconsciously wanted to rely on him.
This can't go on, we must...
This is a bit cruel to you, but I should leave.
People who are already dead should not continue to interfere in your life.
……
Minato extended his semi-transparent hand and pressed it against Naruto's cheek, smiling slightly. "Sorry, I spoke too harshly."
"Cheer up! I believe you can change Pain's mind. After all... you're the child of prophecy chosen by Jiraiya!"
……
……
"Child of Prophecy... Is there such a saying in the ninja world?"
On a high-rise building in Amegakure, Whitebeard leaned against a strange statue, his body even larger than the statue itself.
Payne and Xiao Nian stood on the statue's outstretched palm.
"Yes, Jiraiya-sensei often mentions it."
Konan spoke softly, looking at Pain: "Nagato and I both believe that Yahiko is the child of prophecy, but unfortunately..."
"Gurala la la—"
The white-bearded man's laughter dispelled the sadness: "Then, you who inherit Yahiko's will are the children of prophecy!"
"Roger was the same way. It's not that the chosen one will necessarily change the world, but rather that the one who changes the world is the chosen one!"
He rested his chin on his hand and chuckled lightly, "However... if it were that kid Allen, he would definitely say something like, 'What bullshit about being the Child of Prophecy? The world is decided by the strongest.'"
Konan told Whitebeard a lot about the Akatsuki organization and was captivated by the magnificent world Whitebeard described.
She couldn't help but move closer to the white-bearded man: "Yahiko will definitely love your world, where everyone expresses their thoughts so honestly, without deception or betrayal."
"Rocks, Roger, Golden Lion... how imposing!"
The white-bearded man shook his head: "There were downsides too, but as time goes by, I only remember the good things!"
"Perhaps this is the secret to my longevity compared to them! Gurglalalala..."
……
……
"As expected of a man who has held the title of the world's strongest for many years, he is bold and unrestrained enough."
Without warning, even Pain, who possessed the Rinnegan, didn't notice, when a voice suddenly rang out through the rain!
Carrara —
With the sound of his walking, metal armor clad him, and a man who seemed to be the night itself approached step by step.
He paused at the edge of the tall building across the street, his scarlet gaze fixed on the raindrops.
The dark red plate armor looked as if it were soaked in the blood of the Warring States period, and the exposed skin was covered with cracks.
This body was completely unable to contain the overflowing power.
……
The white-bearded man looked up and grinned.
"Gurara... I'm really getting old. I almost mistook you for little Allen. You look so alike!"
……
The man, looking down at her with his arms crossed, said casually, "He sounds like an interesting junior. I'll meet him when I have the chance."
"Since you're from another world, I'll introduce you..."
"Uchiha Madara, that's my name."
……
"Edward Newgate, you can also call me Whitebeard."

The next moment.
It was Susanoo's blade falling from the sky, and the blinding light rising through the shattered rain.
