Chapter 50 Other Gods Two days later, the news that Naruto joined Kumogakure swept across the ninja world like a hurricane. "What? That brat joined Kumogakure?" In Iwagakure Village, after listening to Huang Tu's information, Oonoki slammed the table. "Damn brat! Didn't Black Stone just send back information saying that guy had no intention of becoming a ninja?" "It is said that the Fourth Raikage personally invited him and promised him the position of the Fifth Raikage. This is no longer a secret in Kumogakure." Huang Tu looked at the information sent back from the Land of Lightning: "Also, he did not join Kumogakure as a ninja." "What is that identity?" Huang Tu said in an embarrassed tone: "Raikage's sworn brother..." "Brother...brother?"
Ohnoki's face darkened: "Ai, that shameless boy! He is a few years older than Minato Namikaze!" "This is really troublesome..." Huang Tu's face was solemn: "A Jinchūriki who has mastered Flying Thunder God has joined Kumogakure." "What an unsteady brat! Isn't it just a position of a shadow? I can give it to him!" Inside the office, Ōnoki was wandering around, cursing in anger. "Well... Actually, according to the news from Black Stone, the kid seems to be easy to get along with, and the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki from Kumogakure also followed him. Maybe it's a resonance between the Jinchuriki." Huang Tu continued to read the information. "Besides, he used Wood Release as soon as he arrived at Kumogakure. Now Kumogakure is surrounded by forests." "forest…" Ohnoki's eyes darkened and he was almost fainting from jealousy. What is there in the Land of Earth? There is only endless, bare land, land of various colors, yellow land, red land, and black land. It’s just lack of forests! The Kingdom of Thunder is not much better in this regard, but compared to the vast and bare land of the Kingdom of Earth, at least they still have some resources. Not only that, the Land of Lightning is surrounded by the sea on three sides. It not only has a developed aquaculture industry, but also controls several important waterways. The domestic mineral resources are also very rich. In terms of economy alone, it is no worse than Konoha. In terms of strength, it is second only to Konoha, and possesses two perfect jinchūriki, the Two-Tail and the Eight-Tail. And now, we have to add a Nine-Tails Jinchuriki who possesses Wood Release, Flying Thunder God, and sealing techniques! "Try to... establish diplomatic relations with Kumogakure." Huang Tu felt that his old man's teeth were about to break... After thinking about it, Huang Tu came up with a good idea: "Maybe we can unite with Konoha to put pressure on Kumogakure..." "And then the village was plowed by the Tailed Beast Ball that suddenly flew out of nowhere?"
Ohnoki looked gloomily in the direction of the Land of Lightning through the window: "Don't be mistaken, Huangtu, the trouble is not with Kumogakure, but with Uzumaki Naruto!" Huang Tu looked worried: "So, aren't we doomed?" "No, there's no need to worry for a while." Ohnoki shook his head. "Isn't there a character profile of that brat? He's lazy and easy-going, self-centered, smart and precocious, and not very aggressive. I'm sure that guy must have made a lot of promises." "So before a stable bond is established, that guy will not provoke a war. On the contrary, he will even take the initiative to reduce the risk of war until that brat truly becomes a member of Kumogakure." "And this period is our opportunity." Ohnoki's eyes were deep: "What Kumogakure can give, we can also give..." It's a pity that the skin color of the people of Thunder Country is too obvious, either black or cold white, making it difficult to plant spies. Otherwise, they could incite the families of the Kumogakure ninjas who died at the hands of Minato Namikaze during the Third World War, and use this to alienate the relationship between the two sides... But it is impossible for Ai not to think of this. Any rash action would expose the few spies he had, which would not be worth the cost. The land of fire, Konoha. "Have you heard? Uzumaki Naruto has joined Kumogakure!" "Eh? Those bandits? Why?" "It is said that the Raikage recognized him as his brother..." In the streets and alleys, people were talking a lot. "What on earth is that guy doing? Even if he is dissatisfied with Konoha, he can't join the enemy camp, right?" "If I don't join Kumogakure, do I have to go back to Konoha and be looked down upon by you?" "What did you say?" "It's the truth. The ambitions of the top brass have been exposed, and the Jinchuriki has left the village. Now they regret it. You guys are really ridiculous." "What are you saying...Aren't you a member of Konoha?" "Eh? Do you think we Uchiha are members of Konoha now?" "..." In the Uchiha clan's territory, upon hearing the news that Naruto had joined Kumogakure, Uchiha Fugaku almost laughed out loud. Although this can be said to be an imminent crisis for Konoha's overall strength, it is undoubtedly a good thing for the Uchiha at the moment. "team leader!" A figure suddenly landed in the yard, Uchiha Shisui looked anxious. "I just got the news that the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki Uzumaki Naruto has joined Kumogakure!" "Ok, I know." Fugaku nodded, "Any questions?"
"The Cloud Village has been coveting our Konoha for a long time. Now that the balance between the two sides has been broken, I'm afraid it won't be long before a war breaks out." Shisui said urgently, "Captain, Konoha cannot lose the Nine-Tails!" Fugaku shook his head slightly: "But it has already happened." "Maybe... I can bring Naruto back." Shisui raised his head, and in his pupils, the kaleidoscope patterns of Bietianshen slowly rotated. Fugaku's eyes lit up when he saw this: "Maleidoscope? With your talent, this is not surprising. So what is your ability?" "Bie Tianshen, my pupil technique can silently modify the target's will." Shisui confessed, "I originally wanted to use this jutsu to resolve the conflict between the village and the clan, but since the disbanding of the police department, there have been many calls in the village for the Uchiha to return to the police department." "This is a good opportunity, Captain! Now that the Uchiha have been cleared of suspicion of the Nine-Tails Rebellion, the villagers are willing to accept us again. If we can bring the Nine-Tails back..." "Then the whole clan will be buried with you for your stupidity." Fugaku crossed his arms, his eyes shone with coldness: "Eliminating the conflict between the village and the family? With your personality, if you hadn't realized that the upper echelons were unreliable, then this technique was originally prepared for me, right?" Shisui was embarrassed when he heard this: "I... just don't want to see the conflict escalate." "You should be thankful that I am the first person to know your pupil technique." Fugaku sneered: "The Uchiha are already feared by the top leaders, and now there is a Mangekyō who can control the Nine-Tails and even other people's thoughts... Do you think the Uchiha are living too comfortably?" Shisui was silent. In the past, he might have argued for his rights, but judging from the recent actions of the top brass, it is not difficult to see that even the third generation, who is seen as upright and righteous by the people, is essentially no different from other top brass. "The Nine-Tails Jinchuriki..." Fugaku glanced at Shisui, shook his head in disappointment, and felt a little scared. It was not difficult to imagine what kind of situation the Uchiha would have ended up in because of this naive brat if he had not let go of the power struggle. It's not just Shisui, it's the same with Itachi. He keeps talking about magnanimity all day long, but he can't even see the essence of the problem. Both Shisui and Itachi have precocious minds that ordinary children do not possess, but as Naruto said, these minds are sadly constrained by their vision, which leads to confusion. But this is normal. He was also confused before he gave up. Until the moment he was inspired by Naruto and decided to give up, the whole sky suddenly became clear! Fugaku sighed and went back to the house. "Yunyin can't control him. If you have this thought, you should worry about yourself. Don't blind yourself..." Shishui looked up suddenly. The captain... also has a kaleidoscope?
---- (PS: Fugaku's Mangekyō is original to the anime, but I personally think that Fugaku should have a Mangekyō. After all, he is the patriarch, and his two sons are talented. It is more reasonable for him to open his eyes in the third battle.) First update today! There will be another update later! Please vote for me and read on! Thank you everyone! (End of this chapter)
