"Uchiha Sasuke? What a coincidence." Orochimaru smiled.
"Orochimaru Sensei? Kakashi sensei? Yondaime Hokage?" Seeing the three of them, Sasuke was stunned.
The whereabouts of Orochimaru and the others had been closely monitored, and they had never left Konoha.
How could they see them outside Konoha?
And why did Kakashi follow them?
Sasuke suddenly felt a sense of unease.
He glanced at his teammates out of the corner of his eye.
None of them could fight.
If he wanted to fight, he needed to deal with Yondaime and Orochimaru alone.
"Kakashi sensei, what's going on?" he asked.
"As you can see, we are leaving." Orochimaru spread his hands and answered first: "Kakashi will leave with us."
"Impossible? How?" Sakura, Sasuke, and Ninja all looked at Kakashi in disbelief.
In their eyes, although Kakashi often looked lazy, his heart was full of Ninja.
Without Kakashi's guidance, there would not be Sasuke and Sakura.
It could be said that Kakashi had laid a very solid foundation for them.
Naruto's betrayal might be excusable, but Kakashi must not betray.
"Why?" Sasuke stared at Kakashi, trying to see the message for help in his eyes.
"Did they force you?"
However, Sasuke was disappointed.
Kakashi was extremely calm.
There was even a hint of relief.
"The times are improving, Sasuke. Konoha can't keep up with the pace of the times. I'm going to look forward." Kakashi's tone was no longer lazy, full of confidence and ease.
He took a step forward, and the Reiatsu in his body burst out.
In the shocked eyes of everyone, he slowly took off his mask, revealing another pure eye.
A pair of black eyes quietly stared at Sasuke.
"Now I am no longer the Hatake Kakashi of Konoha."
Light and shadow flashed, and a figure slowly floated up to his waist.
Kakashi's voice was full of confidence and morning air:
"I have been reborn. I am going to pursue the future, Sasuke."
"Impossible, Kakashi sensei has become a traitor?" Ninja could not accept it and took a step back, his eyes full of disbelief.
The current Kakashi was so strange, so strange that it was frightening.
But at the same time, this kind of Kakashi was full of hope and hope.
This change came from the transformation of the state of mind.
What made him change so much?
They didn't know the reason, and they didn't want to know.
"Why! Why do you have to be like this?! Why do you have to leave in the end?" Sasuke felt as if he had received another betrayal in his heart. He took a few steps back in disbelief. His pupils trembled, and his voice trembled as he asked.
"Naruto is like this, and so are you. Why? Why do you have to leave Konoha? Could it be that you can give up everything in the past at will?"
"Abandon? No, this is awareness. Goodbye, Sasuke. The next time we meet, we will be enemies."
Kakashi and the other two walked into the distance.
No one dared to stop them. They could only watch as their figures gradually disappeared from their sight.
"Understand?" Sasuke sat on the ground in a daze, repeatedly chewing on this word, his face full of loss and confusion.
He didn't do anything wrong, but he couldn't keep his companions.
The fetters were torn apart one by one, and he became lonely and helpless again.
Sakura, who was on the side, had long been unable to withstand the blows and collapsed to the ground. Tears flowed down his face, and he kept muttering, "Why? Why?"
For these Konoha's Ninja, why did it seem to have become the main topic?
Watching the past heroes leave one by one, everyone sighed.
Was Konoha wrong, or were they wrong?
No one knew.
Tsunade and Jiraiya soon learned the latest information.
The mysterious Seireitei appeared in Suna Village. Not only did he save Kazekage, but he also beat back the members of Akatsuki.
What she could not believe was the resurrection of Kakashi.
He had been sentenced to death, and even his body was cold, but Kakashi was still outside Konoha.
After this incident, Tsunade had asked people to confirm it.
Finally, he found out that Kakashi's body was still there.
This meant that Orochimaru and the others might have revived Kakashi's soul.
"Seireitei has mastered the ability of the soul realm!!!
"Bang." Tsunade smashed the table with a palm and said through gritted teeth, "What a good Uzumaki Naruto. What a good Seireitei. Is he finally going to take action?"
"They can actually control souls!" Her tone was full of horror.
The soul was a very mysterious layer of substance.
Konoha had always conducted research on it, and the only progress was the forbidden technique, Edo Tensei.
It was also during research that Nidaime Hokage realized the danger of soul research, so he shut down all research, sealing off all research results other than the forbidden technique.
No one knew what he saw in his soul research that made him fear.
But they only knew that one day, Nidaime Hokage stopped all related human experiments and strictly prohibited the opening of human experiments.
All the people who knew the details of the experiment were dead.
Now, it seemed that Nidaime Hokage might have touched the phenomenon of soul mutation since then.
And Naruto's Kekkei Genkai could influence the soul and induce a change.
Whether it was Minato, the previous Haku, or Orochimaru, they might have been transformed by Naruto.
"What is Naruto's purpose? Why does she want to transform the soul?" Tsunade was puzzled.
But what was certain was that Naruto was definitely Shinobi world's greatest enemy.
"Put Kakashi in S class." Tsunade collapsed on the chair, looking like he had aged.
Jiraiya silently picked up the pipe left behind by Sandaime. The thick smoke choked her tears.
He got used to it after just a few breaths.
Jiraiya smoked his pipe worriedly, suddenly understanding why Sandaime always kept smoking.
Because it could really solve his worries.
Looking at the smoke that floated out, his mood seemed to be a little relaxed.
From Minato to Naruto, now even Kakashi had defected, which made Jiraiya begin to doubt himself.
"Sasuke and Kakashi met face to face. I think Sasuke will be confused. I will go and see him." Jiraiya sighed and walked to the door.
Tsunade stared at the lonely back of Jiraiya, and his heart was full of sadness and sympathy.
She walked to the window and looked at the prosperous Konoha, but her heart was desolate.
She felt that Konoha had become a lot more bleak.
Sasuke sat alone in the deserted mansion, looking at the fallen leaves on the ground in a daze.
Today, he suffered another blow.
Even Kakashi defected.
He was confused.
Why was everyone leaving?
Why did that man join the mysterious organization?
What was the truth behind Uchiha's extermination?
"Sasuke, so this is where you are." Suddenly, Jiraiya's slightly frivolous voice sounded in his ear. Sasuke turned his head and saw Jiraiya slowly walking over.
The wooden track made a crisp sound as it stepped on the ground. Jiraiya looked very relaxed.
"Jiraiya Sensei." Sasuke retracted his gaze and hugged his knees.
"What should I do next?" he asked in confusion.
Jiraiya had already learned from the intelligence that Sasuke had met Uchiha Itachi.
He could understand how Sasuke felt.
He sat down beside Sasuke and said softly, "Look forward, Sasuke."
"Look forward?" Hearing the familiar words, Sasuke looked up in confusion.
"Yes, look forward. Take your own path and walk down it firmly. You are the son of prophecy that can change Shinobi world." Jiraiya revealed a bright and clear smile.
The disciple defected, and the disciple defected, which was indeed very sad.
However, Jiraiya would not doubt himself because of this.
Instead, he would walk on even more firmly.
"Become the pillar of Konoha, Sasuke!"
Jiraiya patted Sasuke on the shoulder.
"The future of Konoha is yours."
Listening to Jiraiya, Sasuke nodded vigorously.
"Seireitei? What a dangerous force." Inside Akatsuki, Pain had just received the latest information.
"Kyubi's Jinchuriki is even more troublesome than I thought. It seems that I need to do it myself."
"However, Seireitei also has many experts." Pain frowned and said worriedly.
"Capture the other tailed-beasts first, then invade Seireitei." After pondering for a moment, Pain said.
...
Inside Seireitei.
Kakashi crossed the border and entered the border. In the next moment, he felt the abundant Reishi in the air.
He closed his eyes in surprise, and the control of Reiatsu in his body seemed to be more relaxed.
"Welcome to the Seireitei. This is the realm where wandering souls reside," Haku smiled faintly, guiding Kakashi to explore the entirety of the Seireitei.
The humans within this realm have completely transformed into wandering souls, and the internal rules have been mostly shaped.
There were no rich families, and everyone lived and worked in peace.
Those who had combat talent could join Seireitei's Shinigami Division.
The completeness of the rules that Seireitei had created surprised Kakashi.
"Right now, our Seireitei's Shinigami Division has a total of 100 members. Shinigami Academy also has nearly 500 students. In the Overthrow Village, we can recognize them." Minato looked at Kakashi seriously and said in a deep voice.
"We hope that you really give up the past and fight for Seireitei. Our future enemies are not simple."
"Don't worry, Sensei. I have made up my mind." Kakashi smiled easily.
He touched Zanpakutō with a little nostalgia.
"I found that you are still very handsome without a mask." Minato rubbed his head, just like his previous leading career.
For Ninja, it was very important to hide his identity and complete the character execution rate.
So for Kakashi, the mask being able to hide his face was also a symbol of Ninja.
At the same time, it was also a tool for him to hide his emotions.
It was more like a symbol to escape from the past.
Now, Kakashi, who had given up his mask, was no different from his past and Ninja's identity.
Under the leadership of Minato, Kakashi quickly integrated into Seireitei's life.
He saw Naruto.
However, the current Naruto was completely different from the refined Naruto in his memory.
Naruto's hair was tucked behind his head, his eyes sharp, and the corners of his mouth curved into a confident smile.
Just by looking at it, he could feel a huge sense of oppression.
Even his soul was trembling.
After greeting Naruto, Minato took Kakashi and continued to visit Seireitei.
Looking at Kakashi who had a strange expression on his face, Minato smiled and said, "Do you feel very pressured?"
Kakashi nodded with lingering fear.
The current Naruto was too different from the gentle Naruto of the past.
"That's because Naruto has become the master of the Pure Land, so he will feel a sense of oppression towards the soul." Minato explained.
"The master of the Pure Land?"
"Well, this should be his ability. Anyway, the Pure Land is already our world." Minato's tone was rather proud.
Not to mention Minato, even Naruto himself could not understand Zanpakutō's true ability.
He sat on the throne, quietly stroking his Zanpakutō.
The current known ability was to travel through space.
He could freely travel to a parallel world.
Even... the real Shinigami world.
"I wonder how the progress of the parallel world is going?" Naruto muttered to himself.
In the plan, parallel worlds were not completely useless.
That place could also become Seireitei's backup world.
Naruto had even chosen the managers of the parallel worlds.
"Naruto, why do I feel like you've suddenly become enlightened? No matter what it is, Ninjutsu is able to grasp it very quickly." Inside Mount Myōboku, Jiraiya looked at Uzumaki Naruto and said with a smile.
"Because Kyubi has started to cooperate with me." Uzumaki Naruto revealed a gentle smile and said.
"Bastard, when this old man breaks the seal, you will have a good time." Inside the seal, Kyubi muttered with a face full of grievance.
Kyubi did not know what Naruto in the other world had done, but ever since Chunin took the test, the seal in his body suddenly had an additional force, becoming unbreakable.
Not to mention breaking the seal, even his own Chakra could not erode a bit.
Uzumaki Naruto could even use his Chakra at any time.
In this situation, he was completely in the position of charging electricity.
"Rasengan." Uzumaki Naruto easily took out a Rasengan and pressed him against the tree.
With the explosion, the big tree was directly blown into a huge hole. Uzumaki Naruto elegantly swung his hand and patted off the dust on his body.
Deep in thought, he muttered to himself, Perhaps it can merge with other Chakra's attributes. Perhaps it can allow Rasengan to develop a new form. Right now, Rasengan's power is still not enough, and he can't throw it out. His flexibility has been reduced.
If I encounter a strong person, I won't be able to hit him at all.
Looking at Uzumaki Naruto who was calmly analyzing, Jiraiya was in a trance.
For a moment, it was as if he saw Naruto.
"It's already great, Uzumaki Naruto." He shook his head and threw this thought to the back of his mind. He smiled at Uzumaki Naruto.
"It's not enough. Jiraiya, Sensei, is far from enough." Uzumaki Naruto showed a gentle smile to Jiraiya.
"This kind of power is far from enough to protect Konoha." The warm sunlight fell on Uzumaki Naruto's elegant and gentle face. At that moment, there was a heavy change between him and Naruto who appeared in Chunin's exam.
But for some reason, there was a sense of incongruity.
It was like an imitation that was lacking in skill.
But one thing was certain.
Uzumaki Naruto was already changing.
Jiraiya's eyes flickered continuously.
Inside Otogakure.
In the parallel world, Sasuke was receiving Orochimaru's guidance.
A few months ago, he chose to defect, and under the guidance of Naruto, he came to Otogakure, who was in Orochimaru's place, to become Orochimaru's apprentice.
At the same time, he also brought Orochimaru some research on souls.
Naturally, Orochimaru would teach his future container everything he had, and generously imparted his ultimate skill to Sasuke.
In terms of teaching ability, Orochimaru was actually better than Jiraiya.
Orochimaru had an innate charm.
But all of this changed after Orochimaru began to study the soul research that Uzumaki Naruto had entrusted to Sasuke.
He spent almost 24 hours in the laboratory, obsessed with everything about the soul.
"The soul, or perhaps the other path of immortality, is safer and more advanced than changing the body."
"I wonder if I have already discovered the evolution of the soul in another world!" Orochimaru looked fanatical.
"If there is a chance, I will definitely go to that world."
