Chapter 397 Shocking

He suggested, "Only in this way can we maintain stability in the face of external threats.

Kearns nodded, understanding what Naruto meant.

"You are right. We need to listen to the villagers and understand their needs and concerns.

He turned and walked towards the village, "Let's get started."

With the actions of Kearns and Naruto, the whole village came alive.

Kearns leads the ninjas to patrol the border to ensure that any potential threats are detected as soon as possible.

At the same time, he also established close ties with other villages to jointly develop strategies to fight against external forces.

At the same time, Naruto visited 13 residents of the village to listen to their opinions and suggestions.

He chaired several meetings on resolving internal conflicts and called for unity in front of all villagers.

Everyone has a voice and is encouraged to express their ideas actively. Kearns stood on the edge of the battle, watching Madara and Hashirama engage in a fierce duel.

These two former good friends fell into a fight over power, which made him feel endless powerlessness and pain.

Kearns sighed deeply, realizing that all this was a tragedy brought about by intrigue and desire.

He turned to Naruto beside him and expressed his opinion on the matter.

He looked at Naruto's determined and anxious expression, filled with worry.

"Naruto, I know you have a strong sense of responsibility for protecting the village."

There was thoughtfulness in Kearns' tone.

"But we can't let power drive a wedge between friends. We've all seen stories in the past where villages were divided and fell because of competition for power."

Naruto clenched his fist tightly, his eyes showing determination.

"I understand what you mean, Mr. Kearns."

He responded with confidence, "I will definitely do my best to break this cycle and protect our village."

Kearns nodded slightly, his face filled with relief.

"Very well, Naruto. You are an excellent apprentice to me and I believe you can do it."

He looked at the two ninjas who were fighting fiercely in the distance.

"We need to come together and teach our ninjas that true power is only achieved through peace, not fighting.

Naruto took a deep breath, feeling the anticipation for him in Kearns' eyes.

"I'll try my best," he replied firmly.

Kearns smiled and patted Naruto's shoulder.

"I know you can do it." He turned and walked towards the depths of the battlefield, "Let us work together to protect this land." On the battlefield, "The battle between Madara and Hashirama became more intense.

Flames and thunder and lightning intertwined to form a shocking scene.

The two old friends turned into enemies. They both tried their best to protect their positions and kept attacking.

Madara's skills are extremely agile, and every move carries a fatal threat.

He used ninjutsu and rapid sword energy to force Hashirama back.

Hashirama relied on his strong physical strength and strength to fight back firmly and powerfully.

He wielded his heavy sword and slashed at Madara unstoppably.

Their skills and combat experience amazed the onlookers ninjas.

But at the same time, it was painful for everyone - after all, they had been partners who trusted each other and went through many difficult times together.

Kearns watched the battle with confusion in his heart. .
