The battle continued.
* whoosh * Ichigo easily avoided Kenpachi's attack, and with a flip of his hand, Sword left a wound on his opponent's chest.
The current Ichigo was actually suppressing Kenpachi and fighting.
What an interesting kid. He is actually constantly improving himself in battle. He is even familiar with my attack style and can even improve his combat skills. This guy is a genius, a genius born to defeat. Zaraki Kenpachi was excited and directly took off his blindfold.
The soaring Reiatsu exploded and rushed into the sky. This area was almost distorted.
"This Reiatsu's quantity is not bad. This guy makes me want to fight." Naruto's eyes flashed as he smiled.
Buzz. Naruto could feel the excitement of Zanpakutō on his waist, and even the color was constantly changing.
"My Zanpakutō is changing?" Naruto immediately fell into deep thought.
Ever since he came to Shinigami's world, his own Zanpakutō had begun to change.
No.
Rather than saying that it was a change, it was more accurate to say that the real Shikai was awakening.
Naruto had a premonition that as long as he saw more of Shikai fighting against more experts, his real Shikai would be completely developed!
Boom! Ichigo and Kenpachi, who had completely unleashed their full strength, once again fought together. The two of them evenly matched each other.
The crazy Kenpachi allowed the slash to land on his body, and then an even more ferocious slash.
"Ichigo's progress is really terrifying, huh?" Naruto sighed. Suddenly, his expression became solemn as he looked at the distant buildings. His eyes revealed a look of joy.
"This is Kyōka Suigetsu's power." Under Yachiru's slightly puzzled gaze, Naruto stood up and walked towards the direction that Kyōka Suigetsu had come from.
"Aren't you going to watch?" Yachiru's crisp voice rang out.
"I'm not going to watch anymore. Ichigo has already won. See you later." Naruto waved his hand.
Looking at the back of Naruto leaving, Yachiru pouted a little unhappily.
"What, Little Sword obviously hasn't lost yet! He also said that he wanted to go with us to see the head team captain, but he left first."
Naruto used Kyōka Suigetsu's cover to quickly avoid all Shinigami on the road and smoothly arrived at the place where Aizen and Kyōka Suigetsu were located.
"Captain Aizen is dead? Impossible, I don't believe it!" He heard a voice of disbelief coming from inside the room.
This scene was familiar, and the corners of Naruto's mouth curled up slightly.
It seemed that Mr. Aizen was using the same method as him.
Reiatsu was confused, and Naruto seemed to have noticed it. He looked to the left.
Then, the air became chaotic, and Aizen appeared.
His brown bangs hung down, and his face was as warm as the sun. His temperament was gentle and elegant.
"Long time no see, Naruto." Looking at Naruto, Aizen revealed a perfect smile.
"Long time no see, Mr. Aizen."
In the Shinobi World.
Akatsuki's actions were still proceeding in an orderly manner.
Sasuke lived in a small village not far from the Fire Country and even took in two disciples.
They were all homeless people.
The village had once been robbed by bandits, and now there were almost no middle-aged men in it.
Sasuke, with his white cloth-covered eyes, was seen as a blind person by the simple villagers, so they took extra care of him in his daily life.
Because Sasuke was handsome, there were many women secretly sending autumn waves, but unfortunately, Sasuke could not see them.
Sasuke's daily life in the village was fishing. Occasionally, he would teach his two disciples his ideas.
"Justice, what is justice?"
"It is justice to stand up when others are in danger."
"Use your own strength to make the world better."
"There is no darkness, no conspiracy."
"Follow your heart and realize all of this."
"This is justice."
The two disciples were only at the age where they had just learned how to read. To them, these ideas were too complicated.
But they knew.
Their master must be a very strong person!
Because they had met some Ninja along the way, but these Ninja could never get close to them.
But what they were curious about was.
His cheap master would always sit quietly by the lake. His temperament was melancholy, as if he was missing someone, but also as if he was blaming himself.
Occasionally, he could hear his ravings. "Naruto, so you have already reached that level? The current me can't even be a guardian. But I won't give up just like that. If your dream is really like that, then I will definitely stop you, even if I die."
Or: "I have already cut ties with the past Sword. Whether Uchiha can revive or not has nothing to do with me. Itachi, stay strong and live on. You are already Uchiha's last person."
Who was Naruto? What was Uchiha?
The two were puzzled.
But they knew that their master was a very complicated person.
Konoha.
During this period of time, Konoha had undergone a drastic change.
First, Godaime Hokage announced that Uchiha Clan had found another orphan.
Uchiha let it be.
For the villagers, this was definitely good news.
Uchiha was a big family as famous as Hyuga, which was enough to show Uchiha Clan's potential.
Nowadays, Konoha needed talented young people too much.
At the same time, Godaime Hokage and Senju Tsunade also announced to all the newborn children and the villagers who were less than 10 years old.
Check if you have Kekkei Genkai, and whether you can join the Genius Plan.
The so-called Genius Plan started a month ago.
As long as you meet the requirements, you can join.
If you join, you can get the resources of the Genius Plan, and you can get a chance to improve your physical fitness to a certain extent to awaken Kekkei Genkai.
In the eyes of the villagers, this genius plan was definitely a chance for the fish to leap over the dragon gate.
But only the insiders knew.
In fact, the so-called genius plan was just a cover for the human body experiment.
Not bad.
Konoha has decided to start the human experiments that have been sealed for a long time.
Because there was not much time left for them.
However, without Orochimaru, Konoha's deep impression was difficult to study.
They even had a hard time understanding Nidaime Hokage's research in the past.
Therefore, Tsunade had the thought of asking for help.
"The taboo Ninjutsu in the Book of Seal." Tsunade looked hesitant.
"Tsunade, you should know that it is Ninjutsu who blasphemes corpses." Jiraiya's face changed.
"I know, I know the cruelty of Ninjutsu more than anyone else, but Second Grandpa and Eldest Grandpa definitely won't blame me." Tsunade bit her teeth and said.
"Sasuke left Konoha. Although Itachi has reached beyond Kage-rank, his power is still not enough to compare with Naruto. Except for Seireitei and Akatsuki, the whole situation of Shinobi world is very subtle. The war will start at any time, and we can't stay out of it."
"I don't want to see the village be destroyed again." Tsunade's face was also full of pain.
Nidaime Hokage and Shodai Hokage were both her grandfathers.
She naturally hoped that the two of them would be buried in the earth.
But judging from the current situation, she couldn't defend the Konoha that her two grandfathers fought.
"You make your own decision." Jiraiya sighed, his eyes full of heartache.
He knew that Tsunade became Hokage in the crisis of Konoha, and she had suffered too much.
If the identity of the son of Naruto, Yondaime, was not hidden, Naruto would grow up in the favor of the villagers. He would not defect. If Naruto did not defect, maybe Sasuke would stay in Konoha. The present Konoha must be full of vitality.
Unfortunately, everything had happened.
There was no medicine for regret in the world, and the past would not come back.
It was Konoha who pushed Naruto away, and it was also Konoha that made Kakashi, Sasuke, and Yondaime feel cold.
At the end of Konoha street, people came and went.
Their hatred for Naruto was engraved in their bones.
They would always warn their descendants.
"Uzumaki Naruto is an ungrateful villain. Konoha raised him, but he destroyed Konoha in a frenzy."
"I must work hard to become Ninja and defeat Uzumaki Naruto."
Konoha's hatred for Naruto was engraved in his soul.
Konoha Village, who was used to peace, was also burning in his heart.
All of Konoha's Ninja increased his cultivation.
Even many families took the initiative to hand over the collection of Ninjutsu, allowing Ninja to observe and learn.
Although the family was selfish, they also understood Haku.
If they did not improve Konoha's fighting strength as soon as possible, then the second destruction would come.
In the heart of Qi, Konoha's Ninja's ability began to rapidly improve.
In the past, Konoha's Twelve Guardians even had the strength of Jonin.
Just as Naruto wanted to see.
Konoha, this sleeping lion woke up and was about to burst out his blood.
In the Uchiha Mansion.
The big mansion was very cold and cheerless.
After Itachi returned, all of Uchiha's inheritance had returned.
It was not that Konoha was afraid of Itachi, but they were worried that Itachi would be disappointed and defect.
It could be said that the current higher-ups of Konoha were very humble.
Itachi sat by the pond in the yard, quietly looking at the fish swimming inside, his eyes blurred.
Sasuke gave up the name of Uchiha, and now he was the real Uchiha's orphan.
Returning to Konoha again, there was only regret in his heart, but not much joy.
His love for Konoha was without a doubt.
But for this love, he had shouldered too many sins.
He really hoped that he would die because of Sharingan's feedback.
But unfortunately, he was still saved.
Sometimes, he also thought that this might be what Sasuke said, to make him atone for his sins for his life.
After learning the news of Sasuke's defection, his Tiandu collapsed and he was on the verge of collapse.
Didn't he do so much just to let Sasuke have a pair of eternal eyes?
However.
Things went against his wishes.
His beloved brother even dug his eyes out in front of him.
The bloody and cruel scene was still vivid in his mind, and it would even churn in his dreams late at night, torturing his heart.
At first, he was unwilling to accept reality and blamed everything on Naruto.
But after this period of peace, he also understood Haku.
The culprit was actually himself.
It was his self-righteousness that made his brother live in pain.
It was also his self-righteousness that pushed his brother to the opposite side of Konoha.
Therefore, he no longer wished to die.
He would live on.
Just as Sasuke had said.
To live on with his eyes, every time he used them, his heart would bear the pain of guilt. The rest of his life would be spent in guilt for his younger brother and Uchiha's sins.
His life would be a life of atonement.
"It's time to eat." At this time, the door of the house opened, and a young woman's head poked out, shouting in a clear and crisp voice.
"It's here." Itachi got up and walked into the house.
There were exquisite dishes on the wooden table. The woman was wearing a home dress. She looked dignified and gentle with a smile.
"Minako, you don't actually have to go through all this trouble to cook every day, you see..." Itachi hesitated but was interrupted by Minako.
"It doesn't matter. I am very satisfied to be close to you."
Minako was the woman that Itachi saved on a mission. After Itachi returned to Konoha, she lived in Uchiha's mansion and took care of Itachi's daily life.
Itachi understood Minako's feelings for him, but with his current self... did he really have the right to love?
Late at night.
Itachi lay on the bed and thought of Sasuke again.
He didn't know where Sasuke was right now.
The current him already possessed a strength that far surpassed his former self. Uchiha's eyes were truly terrifyingly powerful.
If Sasuke knew, would he still regret it?
Itachi subconsciously rubbed his eyes.
Creak. Suddenly, the door opened and a figure walked in. He quietly walked to Itachi's bedside.
Through the moonlight, he looked into Itachi's eyes.
It turned out to be Minako.
"I..." Minako's face turned red, and then she gathered her courage and said, "Mr. Itachi, I'm willing to entrust everything to you."
After that, under Itachi's confused eyes, Mei Naizi directly lifted the quilt and got in.
A gentle touch enveloped him, and Itachi saw Minako gripping his hand, her expression serious. "Mr. Itachi, I know you want to revive the Uchiha, and this is... the only way."
For Itachi, this was a very smooth night.
Inside Hyuga Clan.
After the death of Konoha, all families could no longer stay out of it.
Naruto's ability was there, and the current Konoha was simply too weak.
If they wanted to defend Konoha, they needed more experts.
Hyuga was as famous as Uchiha, but there were very few experts in the clan, Kage-rank.
Even the genius Hinata had her eyes sealed, and her status within the clan plummeted.
The clan leader could only place his hopes on Hanabi.
In the courtyard of the Hyuga estate, Hinata sat quietly on a rock, her eyes devoid of spirit, her Byakugan dim and lifeless.
This was the sixth month since he lost his vision. Hinata missed the days of the past.
She could see the color of the sun and the faces of everyone.
Unlike now, her world was only dark.
Although her clansmen's increasingly cold attitude was hidden in smiles and respect, the sensitive Hinata could still feel it.
There was no resentment in her heart.
To Ninja, death was a common occurrence.
At the very least, she had managed to save her life.
Hinata could only comfort himself in this way.
Crack. She heard light footsteps at the door in the distance.
It was the sound of Hanabi's footsteps.
Ever since she lost her sight, Hinata's other senses had become more acute, and she could hear extremely distant sounds.
She could even judge the person based on her footsteps.
"Sister! So you are here. I have been looking for you for a long time." Hanabi trotted to Hinata's side with a worried face.
After Hinata lost her sight, there were often guards following her.
This time, it was Hinata who secretly left.
Hanabi was very worried about Hinata.
She was afraid that Hinata would do something stupid.
"Hanabi, is today's lesson over?" Hinata smiled and asked softly.
"I'm done. Sister, what are you doing here?" Hanabi asked.
"I..." Hinata looked into the distance. That was Seireitei's direction.
However, her line of sight was still dark.
The corners of Hinata's mouth curled up.
"I'm experiencing the gift he gave me." She gently rubbed her eyes, the corners of her mouth cold. "I will make him regret it and let me live."
"Suzaku and Uchiha Sasuke are locked in a life-and-death battle, and their fate is unknown." For Nagato, this was not good news.
One must know that Itachi's strength was absolutely the best in Akatsuki.
This meant that the difficulty of the Biju Capture Plan had increased again.
"Leader ---" At this time, Tobi suddenly came to the organization.
"Uchiha Sasuke seems to have defected to Konoha."
He told everything he saw and exaggerated Sasuke's strength.
His original intention was to make Nagato even more afraid of Seireitei, so as to delay the time to attack.
However, he never expected that Pain would start to walk out of the cave.
He was going to Seireitei!
