Chapter 243 243 Situation in the Five Major Villages

With the end of the full moon feast of Senju Tomoya, the son of the first Hokage Senju Hashirama, the first year of Konoha has gradually come to an end, ushering in the second year of Konoha.

After a year of recuperation, except for the incident of Hei Zetsu and the Otsutsuki choice, the atmosphere in the village was relatively harmonious for the whole year, at least on the surface.

Ordinary families work ordinary jobs and enjoy the days of a family of three, with their wives and children sleeping on the bed. They are very satisfied.

As for ninjas, they no longer need to live a life of licking blood from the edge of a knife. They can guarantee that they can live a normal life without affecting their lives. They also feel very happy.

Perhaps it is precisely because of Konoha's peaceful environment that it stimulates other countries.

The ninjas in these war-torn areas gradually shook hands and made peace. The first ones to bear the brunt were the small countries surrounding the Land of Fire.

In the country of Taki in the north of the country of fire, the village of Takigakure was established.

In the Kingdom of Yu, northeast of the Kingdom of Fire, Yuyin Village was established.

The Moon Country, a small country to the north of Tang Country, also established Tsukiyin Village.

In the middle of Konoha's second year, finally, the other four major powers began to take action.

The first water country, Kirigakure Village was established.

This is the second one among the five future powers to establish a shinobi village after Konoha.

According to the investigation of the Intelligence Department, the leader of Kirigakure Village calls himself "Mizukage".

Before this, no one in Longyin Village, Yueyin Village, or Tangyin Village dared to call themselves "Shadow".

But the leader of Kirigakure dared to use the title "Kage" like Senju Hashirama.

Although Konoha is not yet ready to start a war just for a title, the people of Kirigakure dare to do so, which can be said to be bold.

Subsequently, in the third year of Konoha, the Kingdom of Wind announced the establishment of a ninja village-Sunagakure Village.

The leader calls himself "Wind Shadow".

This is the birth of the third "shadow".

There is still no news about the other two big countries, the Kingdom of Earth and the Kingdom of Thunder. Although the war has calmed down a lot compared to the past, there is still war.

I'm afraid it will still take some time before they can build a village.

But no matter how many shadows are born, they cannot shake the current status of Konoha.

With the three heroes of the Warring States Period coexisting, Konoha is in the strongest military state that has ever been seen before, and is also likely to be the strongest ever.

As the Hokage, Senju Hashirama is busy with the development of all aspects of Konoha.

On the surface, Uchiha Izuna and Uchiha Madara, as elders of the Ministry of Education and Foreign Affairs, also contribute to the construction of Konoha.

But in fact, they have always had their own secret operations. In this regard, Senju Tobirama, who is supposed to be the senior medical minister, is not qualified to manage and dispatch personnel to investigate.

However, out of consideration for the development of Konoha and his innate hatred for Uchiha, Senju Tobirama still sent a small team of his confidants to investigate the traces of the Uchiha brothers.

…

The southern part of the Fire Country was also where the Hyuga clan's clan was located during the Warring States Period. It is now a ruin.

In front of a 100-foot waterfall, the place is protected with Uchiha's unique illusion barrier.

If ordinary ninjas get close, they will be hit by illusions.

After passing through the waterfall, what you see is a transformed stalactite cave.

Yes, this is where Black Zetsu used to be his own hiding place.

Now, this place has undergone very obvious changes. The original stalactite cave has been transformed into a modern steel corridor, surrounded by newly developed electric lamps as the main light source.

Rather than the bonfire used as a light source during the Warring States Period.

Boom ~ boom ~ boom ~

Crisp and rhythmic footsteps kept ringing from the outside world.

After passing through the third protective door, Madara looked inside and said, "How's it going?"

In the innermost room, there were mainly two nutritional cabins standing, in which were suspended things soaked in unknown liquids such as formalin.

Those were the corpses chosen by Otsutsuki, as well as the pair of white eyes that had lost their reincarnated eyes and originally belonged to Chisato Hinata.

"The second tail has been released, and the barrier inside has been basically broken."

Quan Nai has been waiting here for a long time, and it is Quan Nai himself who has set up a secret base here.

This is the passage where Otsutsuki Hamura led some of his descendants to the moon thousands of years ago. This has been completely confirmed.

What Quan Na wants is to completely master the secrets here.

Spot nodded, only to hear Quan Nai ask again, "You're a little late, what happened?"

Madara crossed his arms across his chest and snorted proudly, "We picked up a few unscrupulous rats on the road."

"The person sent by Tobirama? That guy is really haunted."

Quan Na smiled strangely, and even if Madara didn't say anything, he could guess who it was.

In other words, looking at the entire Konoha and even the ninja world, only that guy has the courage.

"That guy is just as haunted as a fly. I really want to find an opportunity to kill him."

Madara said coldly.

Although Madara doesn't take Senju Tobirama seriously, he is also very dissatisfied with the other party's tracking behavior. It is a miracle that he can endure it until now.

Izuna smiled faintly, he didn't want to say anything about Senju Tobirama.

In other words, his vision has long been beyond just Konoha.

"Now that the illusion barrier has been thoroughly studied, it's almost possible to enter the moon, right? That is where the Otsutsuki clan lives."

Madara walked to Izuna's side, and through the window he could see the lake that still exuded a light green luster.

That is the barrier passage from the earth to the moon.

"Don't worry, there are still many monsters like Otsutsuki up there. Once you get to the moon, you won't be able to find reinforcements at any time like you can here. It's very dangerous."

Izuna smiled. Although he was by no means the remaining Otsutsuki clan on the moon, it was impossible for a monster like Otsutsuki to exist, but it was always right to be cautious.

What's more, Black Zetsu has been erased, so there's plenty of time.

Moreover, this family has never set off from the moon to the earth in thousands of years, at least not in public, so there should be no need to worry for the time being.

However, what worries Izuna even more is the existence of Otsutsuki Kaguya.

Although Black Zetsu has disappeared, is Kaguya Otsutsuki's resurrection rate completely equal to 0?

Also, according to the original work, Kaguya's resurrection was carried out by using the body of a reincarnation of the Ten-Tails Jinchuuriki who was also the direct lineage of the Six Paths, and then unsealed and resurrected with the power of Black Zetsu.

So where is this guy Kaguya sealed?

It can't possibly be Hei Zetsu's body, right?

That guy has no body at all.

Thinking of this, Quan Na couldn't help scratching her head in distress. Even if Black Zetsu was solved, troublesome things would still happen one after another.
