Naruto Taught By Aizen - Chapter 285
In a parallel world,
After the events experienced by Naruto, the atmosphere in Konoha changed drastically.
Naruto Uzumaki, the Jinchuriki of the Nine-Tails and the son of the Fourth Hokage, was supposed to be a hero of Konoha.
However, due to the machinations of the higher-ups in the village, he became a pawn in their power games.
This directly led to Naruto’s descent into darkness.
The Naruto from another world possessed terrifying power to the extreme, making the First Shinobi Village, Konoha, seem utterly defenseless in front of him.
It’s not hard to imagine that in this alternate world, Naruto might have already destroyed Konoha.
The fact that Naruto was a Jinchuriki of the Nine-Tails made the villagers even more frightened and apprehensive.
Some were afraid that Naruto might turn into a rogue ninja like the original Naruto.
But there was also a glimmer of hope that Naruto might awaken powers similar to the original Naruto’s and fight for Konoha.
In this situation, Konoha’s feelings towards this Naruto were incredibly complex, but there was still a prevailing sense of hostility.
Because in their eyes, Naruto from this parallel world could very well become another menace like the original Naruto.
Under these circumstances, Jiraiya was forced to take this Naruto away from Konoha, beginning a long journey of training.
During that year, Konoha gradually regained its strength.
“Kakashi, I’m here!” In the Uzumaki clan compound, the door swung open, and a lively voice filled the air.
“Creak.” With the sound of footsteps, a young woman entered the courtyard.
At first glance, she saw Kakashi sitting by the pond lost in thought.
The expression on her face turned momentarily melancholic and sad, but then she broke into a carefree smile. “Why are you daydreaming again?”
Since the collapse of the plan to destroy Konoha, Kakashi had been immersed in the sorrow of losing Rin, often brooding alone.
As Rin’s close friend, she frequently visited Kakashi, showing concern and trying to reassure him that none of it was his fault.
Over time, Red Bean began to develop a subtle feeling for Kakashi.
She would often find excuses to visit Kakashi’s home and take him out for meals.
Kakashi, sitting by the pond, raised his head. His expression was that of a dead fish. “Oh, it’s you, Red Bean.”
He stretched lazily, sighed, and looked thoroughly dispirited. “It seems like it’s time for dinner again.”
Despite his apparent desolation, Kakashi had not neglected his training at all during this year.
In fact, he had fully utilized his natural talents, pushing himself to the level of the Eighth Gate.
Rin’s death and Guy’s death had become his motivation to grow stronger.
He wanted to avenge his comrades and kill Naruto!
“I wonder how Naruto and Sasuke are doing now.” He sighed, speaking to himself with a troubled expression.
After Naruto and Sasuke left, Team 7 had disbanded.
Sakura had also embarked on a journey of training under Tsunade’s guidance.
Tsunade, the Fifth Hokage, had immediately implemented a series of new policies upon taking office. Due to the sharp decline in the Third Hokage’s reputation, the transition had gone smoothly.
On that day, a voice suddenly echoed in Tsunade’s mind, and her thoughts were drawn in.
She saw an elderly man with a terrifying aura, his face aged.
He identified himself as the Sage of the Six Paths.
At the same time, in the Myoboku Mountains,
Naruto Uzumaki had finished a day of training.
A waterfall cascaded from a great height, its roaring sound filling the air.
Naruto walked out from behind the waterfall and wiped the water droplets from his body.
“Naruto, you’re amazing!” Several young toads croaked enthusiastically.
“Is that so? Thanks for the praise.” Naruto gave a gentle smile that resembled Naruto’s and spoke softly.
Suddenly, his gaze became vacant, and he entered a mysterious space.
In that space, a white-robed old man slowly turned around, his Rinnegan eyes swirling.
“Nice to meet you for the first time. I am the Sage of the Six Paths.”
“Sage of the Six Paths?” Naruto looked bewildered, his mind racing.
He could feel a tremendous power emanating from the Sage, something far stronger than Naruto himself.
Was the Sage of the Six Paths another enemy?
What was his purpose in finding Naruto?
Wasn’t the Sage of the Six Paths supposed to be dead?
Or was this some lingering chakra?
Could the Sage of the Six Paths also traverse time and space?
Countless thoughts raced through Naruto’s mind, and he soon wore a gentle smile. “So, you’re the Sage of the Six Paths. What can I do for you?”
“The Shinobi World needs your help,” the Sage of the Six Paths cut to the chase.
A similar scene was unfolding in the Hidden Sound Village where Sasuke Uchiha was located.
Having just completed his training under Orochimaru’s guidance, Sasuke and Orochimaru had gradually realized the limits of the Sharingan.
With Naruto’s help, Sasuke had also become aware of the potential of the Shinigami powers.
This had left Sasuke excited about the prospect of becoming a Shinigami himself and joining Naruto in scientific research.
During this time, Orochimaru had been working diligently on soul-related research and had made significant breakthroughs in that area.
He had become convinced that Naruto’s idea of eternal life through the soul was achievable and far more reliable than body-switching immortality.
As for Sasuke, he was fully convinced. After all the times Naruto had promised him incredible power, Sasuke had become a true believer.
So when the Sage of the Six Paths appeared and attempted to tie him to the ship of the Shinobi World, Sasuke rolled his eyes and asked bluntly, “Can I become stronger?”
“Not bad, he’s thinking about freeloading off Six Paths Sage.”
“It can be said that under Naruto’s guidance, Sasuke Uchiha has also gone astray.”
“I can share my Six Paths power with you, allowing you to surpass your current strength,” Six Paths Sage said. “I will also open the gate to that world. I need you to lead Konoha to defeat Naruto.”
“He already controls the Spirit World and the Pure Land, and now, the Ninja World is in great danger,” Six Paths Sage said bitterly.
“Why don’t you do it yourself?” Sasuke Uchiha asked expressionlessly.
“Because I’m currently unable to fight Naruto,” Six Paths Sage sighed. “I’m just a remnant at this point.”
“He has taken control of the Pure Land, becoming its ruler, and I can’t touch him,” Six Paths Sage sighed again.
“So, the only ones who can save the Ninja World now are you.”
“I understand, give me your power,” Sasuke Uchiha decisively nodded.
The same scene also happened with Naruto.
“This time, the whole Konoha will go to that world, and this will be the only chance to defeat Naruto,” listening to Six Paths Sage’s words, Sasuke Uchiha became impatient and waved his hand. “Don’t worry, I won’t let him have his way.”
Feeling the terrifying power boiling inside him, he showed a wicked smile. “With this kind of power, I’ve completely surpassed Itachi Uchiha.”
Under various operations, the Fifth Hokage of Konoha, Tsunade Senju, gathered the elite ninja.
“The Ninja World is in crisis…”
She relayed the information she received from Six Paths Sage to all capable fighters, including Danzo.
“I want to know what you all think,” Tsunade Senju stared at the faces below, asking seriously.
“That’s not our world, I don’t propose going in on our own,” Danzo snorted.
Many ninja exchanged glances, evidently agreeing with Danzo’s viewpoint.
Naruto’s previous performance in the Plan to Collapse Konoha was too formidable, and even with Konoha’s support, they couldn’t possibly contend with him.
Tsunade Senju hadn’t witnessed Naruto’s power, so she didn’t understand how desperate the situation was.
It was a kind of despair that could shatter one’s will to fight.
Whether it was complete control over all elite ninja, effortlessly defeating Kage-level opponents, controlling Tailed Beasts, or even battling with his life, Naruto had defeated them all.
Even if they entered that world, what difference would it make? How could they help?
“If our actions make Naruto unhappy, it might bring disaster to our world too,” Danzo said. “Fifth Hokage, have you considered that?”
Seeing Tsunade Senju furrow her brow, Danzo continued, “Even Six Paths Sage had to come to our world for help. You can imagine how troublesome Naruto is.”
After listening to Danzo’s words, Tsunade Senju frowned, showing some hesitation. “Six Paths Sage told me that he hasn’t attacked us yet because he’s being held back by the ninja in that world. Once he conquers it, it will be our turn.”
As she spoke, the ninjas wore worried expressions.
Given Naruto’s malice towards Konoha, it was indeed possible.
“But… Naruto had the power to destroy Konoha before,” an elder interjected.
“If he had intentions for our world, he should have acted during the Plan to Collapse Konoha,” another ninja added.
“Perhaps he fears the Six Paths Sage of that world?” Tsunade Senju said uncertainly.
“Given Naruto’s attitude towards Konoha, we absolutely cannot sit idly by, hoping that he won’t consider us,” another ninja added.
“This time, both Naruto Uzumaki and Sasuke Uchiha will help.”
Tsunade Senju’s next words left everyone unsettled.
“Naruto Uzumaki and Sasuke Uchiha.” Kakashi Hatake’s eyes flickered, showing a hint of nostalgia.
After the Plan to Collapse Konoha, Team 7 disbanded, with one being a rogue ninja and the other leaving the village.
Now, due to various circumstances, they had the opportunity to fight side by side again.
“Forgive my bluntness, but can we really trust them? One is a rogue ninja, and the other is an alternate version of Naruto,” Danzo’s voice chimed in.
“As you all know, after the entity within Naruto Uzumaki was removed by Naruto, he became gloomy, and there’s definitely hatred for Konoha in his heart. Given Naruto’s example, we shouldn’t have high hopes for Naruto Uzumaki,” Danzo continued.
“In my opinion, he’s just another Naruto! Sooner or later, he’ll pose a threat to Konoha!”
“No, Naruto Uzumaki is not that kind of person. My disciple is warm and cheerful, a boy who inherits the will of fire!” Kakashi Hatake stared fiercely.
But he despairingly discovered that the other ninja wore expressions of deep thought.
It was clear they didn’t trust Naruto Uzumaki.
“We have to believe in Jiraiya,” Tsunade Senju looked around, saying each word solemnly.
“With Jiraiya’s guidance, Naruto Uzumaki will be led down the right path.”
“Hmph!” Danzo snorted. “Do you think Konoha can withstand Naruto’s wrath right now?”
With that, the entire room fell silent.
Naruto’s power was too overwhelming.
“But Tsunade Senju makes a valid point. If we don’t help another ninja world this time, and it falls, we may be next in line,” Turnip Koshin said.
“If we choose to remain inactive this time, and if Naruto has any intentions for our world, we won’t be able to stop him.”
“If we take the initiative and confront Naruto, it will be an endless battle.”
“Aren’t we already in an endless battle with Naruto?” Tsunade Senju looked around, her voice heavy.
Danzo fell silent, his gaze constantly shifting.
On one hand, he agreed with Tsunade Senju’s statement, but on the other hand, he believed that he would suffer significant losses in this war.
“If we, Konoha, join this battle and get heavily injured, other ninja villages will undoubtedly have thoughts about us. We must have capable individuals remain in Konoha to guard it,” Danzo took a deep breath.
“If we’re going to the other world, I suggest that among us, there should be someone capable of managing the situation, leading a few skilled individuals to stay behind and protect Konoha.”
“Are you suggesting, Danzo…” Turnip Koshin furrowed her brow.
“Yes, I am the most suitable candidate to stay behind,” Danzo said resolutely.
“I can lead some Root members to guard Konoha. If anything dangerous happens, immediately send us a message, and we will rush to support.”
Danzo said solemnly, “Now, other ninja villages are eyeing us, and we must have enough power in Konoha. The Fifth Hokage will undoubtedly go to the front lines to boost morale, so I am the only one left.”
“No, in terms of prestige, Jiraiya is higher than you,” Tsunade Senju said expressionless. “If we go to the other world, can your Root mobilize effectively?” Tsunade Senju asked.
Danzo’s true nature was well known among Konoha’s high-ranking officials.
What he desired most was the position of Hokage.
But he was like a mouse hiding in the dark, timid and fearful.
Encountering a major event, he would shrink back first.
His longing for the Hokage position and the passage of time had turned this old man into a selfish and self-serving individual.
Tsunade Senju had long seen through him.
In reality, Danzo didn’t love Konoha; he loved power.
This made Tsunade Senju feel extremely weary.
Under internal and external pressures, Konoha had revealed too many problems.
After discussions, they decided to help the other world.
Naruto was too dangerous, and for Konoha, he was a ticking time bomb, ready to explode at any moment.
A few days later, Sasuke Uchiha and Orochimaru arrived in Konoha.
Originally, Orochimaru wasn’t supposed to participate, but upon learning Sasuke Uchiha’s purpose in going to the other world, Orochimaru insisted on joining.
He was eager to gather more research data in this mission.
Upon seeing Sasuke Uchiha and Orochimaru, the expressions of Konoha’s high-ranking officials were quite interesting.
“Long time no see, everyone,” Orochimaru shrugged and stuck out his crimson tongue.
“Oh, Tsunade Senju, I didn’t expect to see you again as the Fifth Hokage.”
“By the way, there’s Danzo, long time no see.” Orochimaru revealed a meaningful smile.
The interaction between the group was very awkward, and Sasuke Uchiha naturally had a cold demeanor.
Even when Sakura tried to be attentive, he remained expressionless.
They were all waiting for Jiraiya and Naruto Uzumaki’s arrival.
