Chapter 188 3rd Generation Memorial Service
This time, Konoha's disruption plan plunged the entire Konoha Village into chaos and crisis.
The Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen died heroically in this battle, paying a huge price to protect the village.
At the same time, Uzumaki Naruto showed amazing willpower and strength.
In the fierce battle with the One-Tailed Jinchuriki Gaara, he finally defeated the powerful opponent with his tenacious fighting will and indomitable spirit.
This victory not only proved Naruto's growth and progress, but also made his mother Uzumaki Kushina extremely proud of him.
Minato Namikaze was in the midst of this chaos, his thoughts surging like the tide.
The words that Yu Xi said were like a heavy hammer, constantly hitting his heart and making him unable to ignore them.
These words echoed in his mind again and again, prompting him to start thinking deeply about whether the existing system is really perfect.
After careful consideration, he gradually realized that there might indeed be some problems with this system and that it needed to be changed and improved.
Just as he was concentrating on thinking about how to change the system, a strange phenomenon caught his attention.
During this crisis in Konoha Village, the organization "Root of Konoha" never showed up from beginning to end.
Minato Namikaze was very familiar with the organization "Root of Konoha".
He knew very well what the existence of this organization meant to Konoha Village, and he was also clear about their style of action and purpose.
And now, facing the safety of the village.
But they chose to ignore it, which surprised Minato Namikaze very much.
He couldn't help but begin to doubt whether this organization really existed to protect Konoha Village as it seemed.
Minato Namikaze has a deep understanding of Danzo, the leader of "Konoha's Root".
He knew that Danzo was a man who would do anything to achieve his goals, even at the cost of sacrificing the safety of the village.
Thinking of this, Minato Namikaze felt extremely disgusted and angry at Danzo's behavior.
He understood how sinister and selfish people like Danzo were, and that he would use any means necessary to fight for the position of Hokage.
This behavior not only violates the ninja's ethical code, but also poses a serious threat to the stability and development of the village.
The spies from Sand Village, Kumo Village, Mist Village, and Iwa Village who were lurking in Konoha couldn't help but feel joyful when they learned the news of the sacrifice of the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen.
This is extremely important information!
This is undoubtedly great news for their respective villages.
After all, the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen is a powerful Kage-level warrior.
His death means that the hostile forces have lost a powerful opponent, which will undoubtedly deal a huge blow to Konoha.
However, just as they were secretly rejoicing, another important news exploded in their hearts like a bombshell, making them worried.
The news is that the God of Taijutsu, Yu Xi, who lived from the same period as the First Hokage, Hashirama Senju, and the Shura of the Ninja World, Uchiha Madara, is still alive!
The name Yuxi is not unfamiliar to these spies.
He is a legendary figure from the same period as the first Hokage, Hashirama Senju, and the Shura of the Ninja World, Uchiha Madara, and is famous for his terrifying physical skills.
Legend has it that Yuxi's physical skills have reached the pinnacle, and each of her moves contains endless power.
But what is even more shocking now is that Yu Xi is not only alive, but also possesses the ability to live forever!
This is undoubtedly an incredible fact because it is in everyone's cognition.
Yu Xi is just a legendary strong man.
Now she appeared alive in Konoha Village, and in a secluded way.
This made the spies start to worry. They didn't know whether Yuxi had already joined Konoha Village and become a part of Konoha.
If this is true, then it will undoubtedly add tremendous difficulty and risk to their mission.
After all, a god-like existence like Yu Xi, his powerful strength and influence should never be underestimated.
Almost every village has a legend about Yuxi. All the early ninja villages were defeated by Yuxi alone.
the next day.
Dark clouds hung low in the sky, and the air was filled with the smell of damp earth, as if even the sky was mourning for the fallen hero.
On the streets of Konoha Village, people walked towards the memorial service in silence, with heaviness and sorrow written all over everyone's face.
The departure of the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen was like a deep scar, engraved in the hearts of every villager.
Jiraiya stood at the front of the crowd, rarely showing his usual unruly demeanor and looking solemn.
His eyes swept over the Minato couple beside him. Minato Namikaze lowered his head slightly, his golden hair swaying gently in the wind, and complex emotions flashed in his eyes.
Uzumaki Kushina held her husband's hand tightly, as if silently transmitting strength.
behind them.
The twelve Genin of Konoha - Naruto, Sasuke, Sakura, Hinata and others - stood in a row, with different expressions, but without exception they showed respect for the deceased.
Naruto clenched his fists, the third-generation grandfather's last smile still echoing in his mind.
He gritted his teeth and swore to himself: "I will become stronger and protect the village!"
Sasuke stared ahead silently, with a dark light flashing in his Sharinga.
Sakura secretly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, Hinata lowered her head and twisted her fingers together nervously.
At the same time, in the mansion in the back mountains of Konoha.
Yuxi gently pushed open the door, and the cool morning breeze brushed across her cheek.
She looked back at Kaguya Otsutsuki who was still sleeping, and the corners of her mouth raised slightly.
Kaguya curled up in the quilt, with her long silver hair spread out, like a quiet painting.
Yu Xi did not disturb her, but just closed the door gently and stepped into the gloomy morning light.
She wore a dark red coat today, paired with a pair of loose sweatpants, looking casual and lazy.
He held a black long-handled umbrella in his hand, and the tip of the umbrella lightly touched the ground, making a slight sound.
She was not in a hurry to travel, but walked slowly along the path behind the mountain, letting her thoughts drift away with her footsteps.
"Sarutobi Hiruzen...what a stubborn boy." She murmured softly, with a hint of emotion in her eyes.
Although she has long been indifferent to life and death, she is still touched by human beings' persistence and sacrifice.
The woods in the distance rustled in the wind, as if responding to her thoughts.
The outline of Konoha Village gradually became clear, and many ninjas and villagers had gathered at the memorial service venue.
Yuxi stood a little further away, watching all this quietly.
Suddenly, a drop of cold rain fell on her cheek.
Yuxi raised her head and saw dark clouds rolling in and raindrops beginning to fall sporadically.
She opened her umbrella, and the black surface stood out against the gray sky.
"It's going to rain..." she said softly
