Simultaneous travel: I am proving the great way in the heavens.

Chapter 80: Tsunade becomes a tool, uses the world as a chess piece, and becomes the millennium-old villain!
After all, the truth is really challenging to my worldview.

Even though she accepted Luofu's statement, her usual perception still made Tsunade want to defend the Six Paths Sage, whom she once admired.

Luo Fu sighed and said, "You completely regarded what I just told you as a pure story. To be more precise, Otsutsuki Hamura's death on the moon was not due to old age, but he died after exhausting his second chance of life."

After a slight pause, Luo Fu reminded, "In fact, Otsutsuki Hamura died at the hands of his mother, Otsutsuki Kaguya, but was resurrected by his brother, the Six Paths Sage, using the Sage Talisman of Myoboku Mountain. However, chakra and natural energy are two different things. Before that, Otsutsuki Hamura didn't even know how to use the Sage Mode. So, is he still a pure Otsutsuki clan member after being resurrected?"

Tsunade was stunned for a moment. Luofu had indeed said that the Six Paths Sage and his younger brother Otsutsuki Hamura rebelled against their mother, but died at her hands.

In this way, Otsutsuki Hamura may have really died very early, and was only brought back to life by the Sage Talisman of Myoboku Mountain. However, this process obviously seriously damaged Otsutsuki Hamura's vitality, making it impossible for him to have a long life like the real Otsutsuki clan.

"You don't need to think about why the Six Paths Sage is still alive. You just need to know that the Six Paths Sage has the power to interfere with the Ninja World at any time! In fact, as long as the Six Paths Sage wants, he can monitor every move of the Ninja World."

"If the Six Paths Sage of the Pure Land really has such power, then your story just now is not true at all?"

Luo Fu smiled slightly. Seeing Tsunade's stubborn look, he said in a playful tone, "Why not?"

"You just said that before being sealed, Kaguya Otsutsuki created her third son with the power of Yin-Yang Release, and her third son, the guy named Black Zetsu, has been persistently provoking hatred between the Senju and Uchiha clans for thousands of years, hoping to give birth to a child with the Rinnegan that can unlock the seal. If this is true, there is no way that the Six Paths Sage would not have discovered it." Tsunade seemed to really feel that she had caught the flaw in Luofu's story.

Looking at Tsunade with pity, Luo Fu said, "Yes, even though he is in the Pure Land, the Six Paths Sage can interfere with the Ninja World at any time. He must have discovered the existence of his brother, but why didn't he interfere? Instead, he allowed his brother to constantly stir up conflicts and hatred among the descendants, causing the Senju clan and the Uchiha clan to fight for a thousand years. Why is that?"

"This is because... This is because..." Tsunade's face became more and more gloomy. She just couldn't accept it emotionally. In the myth, the great Sage of Six Paths, but the truth was that he was a big villain who had betrayed all the ninjas in the ninja world for thousands of years.

But this doesn't mean Tsunade is really stupid.

On the contrary, she even quickly realized that the Six Paths Sage could clearly perceive every move of his younger brother created by the Yin-Yang Escape.

But the Six Paths Sage just sat there and did nothing.

The only explanation is that what Black Zetsu did was what the Six Paths Sage wanted to see.

And after this was confirmed, the label of Six Paths Sage as sinister could no longer be removed.

Closing her eyes and taking a deep breath, Tsunade said after a long while: "What about you? Now it's time to talk about you. I admit that the Six Paths Sage is indeed not a good guy. He even schemed against the entire ninja world for a thousand years. I don't know how much terrifying chakra he has accumulated. But what about you?"

"Me?" Luo Fu smiled leisurely and said, "If Kaguya Otsutsuki is the source of all chakras in this world, then whether it is the Six Paths Sage, Otsutsuki Hamura, or countless ninjas after that, they all extend from this source. Just like the trunk and branches of a big tree, then I am like cutting a piece of paper from this tree, and after grafting, a new sapling grows."

"You also have a sacred tree?" Tsunade looked at Luofu in horror.

In the story that Luofu just told, the sacred tree is the source of all power. Even Kaguya Otsutsuki became the ancestor of chakra after taking the fruit of the sacred tree.

Since Luofu described all the chakras under Kaguya Ōtsutsuki as branches extending from a big tree, then using the metaphor of cuttings, doesn't it mean that he owns another sacred tree?
"In the ninja world, besides the Ten-Tails Sacred Tree, there is indeed another sacred tree, but that sacred tree is not in my hands. I don't have a sacred tree."

At this time, Tsunade had no time to care about anything else. All her attention was focused on the other sacred tree that Luofu mentioned.

Are you kidding? A sacred tree gave birth to the Ten Tails, which is a collection of nine tailed beasts. Just one Nine-Tails can become a strategic weapon of Konoha.

What about a complete Ten-Tails?
Tsunade's current understanding is not enough to understand the impact the second sacred tree will have on the ninja world. Her focus is on the tailed beasts.

"You...you said there is a second sacred tree in the ninja world?" Tsunade's voice changed a little.

"Yes! I should have told you just now that when Kaguya Otsutsuki came to this world, she had companions. Even the Otsutsuki Isshiki who came with her had a higher status than Kaguya. In fact, in the eyes of her companion, Kaguya Otsutsuki was more like the last bit of nutrition prepared for the sacred tree after it was successfully planted. But Otsutsuki Isshiki did not expect that he would be attacked by the sacrifice."

"The other guy who owns the sacred tree is this Otsutsuki Isshiki? Isn't he dead?" Tsunade felt more and more that the waters of the ninja world were too complicated.

She even began to have the delusion that she would rather have never met Luo Fu and not know anything about it.

If you don’t know everything, you won’t have such troubles.

"In Kaguya's eyes, she did kill Otsutsuki Isshiki, but the Otsutsuki clan has a magical ability that can transform all their own information into something called wedge seal, and revive it in other people's bodies. Although Otsutsuki Isshiki escaped the disaster in this way, he has not fully recovered his strength in the past thousand years!" Luofu did not intend to deal with Otsutsuki Isshiki so quickly.

Although he was indeed envious of the second sacred tree in Otsutsuki Isshiki's hand.

But at the moment, Luofu is not fully confident that he can deal with Otsutsuki Isshiki.

"I think I understand what you mean." Tsunade said with a wry smile, "In fact, the ninja world is now the stage for you, the Six Paths Sage, Kaguya Ōtsutsuki, and Isshiki Ōtsutsuki to compete with each other, right? You regard this world as a chessboard, and the rest of us are just chess pieces that you manipulate at will, just like the Black Zetsu that Kaguya Ōtsutsuki created at will."

Although Luo Fu really wanted to say that Tsunade really overestimated herself.

With her strength, she is not qualified to be a chess player at all, but if you think about it carefully, Tsunade's statement is not really a compliment to Luofu.

After all, Luofu really developed a system of his own.

It has a chakra that is very different from Kaguya's, and it's also different from Jigen or Otsutsuki Isshiki's sacred tree, and it doesn't even have much to do with the entire Otsutsuki clan.

Luofu is indeed still very weak now, but he hides well enough.

Even before, when he was in the Akatsuki organization, he had somehow guessed the existence of the Six Paths Sage, but he had not jumped out and slapped him to death.

As long as Luofu is given time, relying on the shared space and its own system that has already embarked on a smooth road, Luofu will definitely become a real chess player.

And believe me, that day will not be far away.

Seeing that Luo Fu was still silent, Tsunade smiled bitterly and said, "It seems that I guessed right."

With a faint sigh, Tsunade said: "I am now increasingly regretting why I troubled you in the tavern before. Now I am afraid that I can't get away even if I want to."

After calming down, Tsunade said, "I know that I am now on your pirate ship and there is no way I can get off. Neither the Six Paths Sage nor the sealed Otsutsuki Kaguya would accept me. Even from the beginning, those high and mighty beings would never take us seriously. It is my honor to be recruited by you personally."

Tsunade saw it very clearly. From the moment she accepted those few drops of blood from Luofu, she had no choice but to follow Luofu until the end.

Regardless of whether Luofu's story is true or false, one thing is certain: his grandfather, the God of Ninja, Hashirama Senju, and the Asura of the Ninja World, Uchiha Madara, do possess powers that are not in line with the common sense of ninjas.

If you consider the story Luo Fu just told, then everything seems to make sense.

Whether it was his grandfather or Uchiha Madara, they were just tools manipulated by the Six Paths Sage.

Indra and Asura, these two are the sons of the Six Paths Sage.

He could not even care about his own son. Could it be that Tsunade still expect that a nobody like her would get any preferential treatment in front of the Six Paths Sage?
In addition to the Six Paths Sage, Kaguya Otsutsuki is sealed, and her tool, the third child created by Yin-Yang Release, is still nowhere to be found. In the eyes of the other party, an existence like Tsunade is nothing more than a weed.

As for the final Otsutsuki Isshiki, Tsunade might not be able to find the opponent even if she tried to look for him.

After counting the things carefully, Tsunade helplessly discovered that being valued by Luofu and even being his tool was actually a good thing for her. At the very least, she would not be like the ignorant people who didn't even know how to die, living in a daze and dying in the morning.

"I can serve you as my master, but I have a condition." At this time, Tsunade no longer dared to regard Luofu as a ninja from the Uchiha clan of Konoha.

Looking at Luo Fu solemnly, Tsunade took a deep breath and said, "I hope you can give Shizune a chance. I think you should be the weakest in front of the Six Paths Sage, the Goddess of the Rabbit and that Ōtsutsuki Isshiki. Although Shizune has been following me, her strength is not inferior to that of an ordinary jonin. Even in front of beings like you, there is almost no difference between a jonin and an ordinary person, but Shizune can still help to some extent."

After understanding everything according to her own understanding and through Luofu's narration, Tsunade couldn't help but want to give Shizune a chance to choose.

As for Luofu, naturally, they are also eager to expand their own system.

Especially Shizune, who has followed Tsunade for so long, at the very least, will be like a qualified tool. At the very least, she can take on the role of strengthening Rosen's system.

Without even thinking twice, Luo Fu nodded and said, "Okay, but it depends on whether Jingyin is willing."

"Send me away." Tsunade looked lonely, but she had no intention of communicating with Luofu.

In fact, after knowing the truth, Tsunade knew very well that in a contest of this level, she was at best just a tool.

I am a ninja, and a ninja is also a tool. So I might as well be prepared to become a qualified tool.

As a tool, a ninja has no right to question the mission, so if you become Luofu's tool, you naturally shouldn't try to tell Luofu what to do.

Tsunade's attitude towards Luofu has obviously changed drastically.

Every gesture and movement showed an attitude that Luofu was the master.

When Tsunade returned to the resting place, she couldn't help but feel warm in her heart when she saw Shizune who was waiting anxiously.

"Shizune, I'm back!"

"Lady Tsunade." There was obvious relief in Kato Shizune's tone.

It was obvious that Kato Shizune was very worried, as Tsunade suddenly left without saying goodbye.

"Shizune." Tsunade said seriously, "I'm giving you a chance to choose now."

Looking at Tsunade in confusion, Kato Shizune asked in surprise: "Lady Tsunade, are you planning to return to Konoha?"

"It has nothing to do with Konoha." Shaking her head, Tsunade said, "It has nothing to do with Konoha, but this decision may affect your future. I hope you can consider it carefully."

"Lady Tsunade, you have to tell me first what I should choose, right?" Kato Shizune said helplessly.

"You should have seen that I have awakened Wood Release, but all of this was accomplished with the help of Luofu. I hope that you can accept his help like I did. However, if you accept his help, we will be bound together in the future. This bond will even transcend the village. You can think about it. If you don't want to, you can refuse!"

Tsunade's words were somewhat vague though.

But Kato Shizune, who had followed Tsunade for so long, could sense the seriousness of Tsunade's attitude at the moment.
Kato Shizune only thought about it for a moment, then nodded and said, "Like Lady Tsunade, I choose to accept Luofu's help."

"Have you really thought it through?" Tsunade hesitated for a moment and said, "For some reasons, I can only tell you that rejecting this option may not be a bad thing."

"No need." Kato Shizune said firmly: "Wherever Lady Tsunade is, I will be there."

With a deep sigh, Tsunade looked at Luo Fu and said, "Help Shizune."

Luo Fu nodded and smiled, and also gave Jingyin a few drops of his own blood.

However, he did not wait for Shizune to wake up, but chose to say goodbye to Tsunade and others. He even refused Tsunade's proposal to return to Konoha with him, and went straight to Konoha alone.

Konoha, in the Hokage Building.

With a pipe in his mouth, Sarutobi Hiruzen took big puffs of the cigarette.

After glancing at Minato Namikaze who was sitting in the Hokage position, Sarutobi Hiruzen said, "Minato, the Uchiha clan has always been an unstable factor in the village. Although this Luofu chose to give up the Uchiha clan's bloodline limit and became the second strongest after White Fang in swordsmanship, he is a member of the Uchiha clan, and this cannot be changed."

"Yes, Uchiha are born evil." Shimura Danzo said without hiding his malice towards Uchiha in his tone: "I suggest reducing the reward for Uchiha Luofu as much as possible. According to the information we have investigated, his swordsmanship has little to do with Konoha. Also, he didn't seem to have completed the last mission. Although Suna Village did report the death of Scorch Release Yegura, there is no direct evidence to prove that Scorch Release Yegura died at the hands of Luofu."

"Minato, we old men will not harm the village." Utatane Koharu said earnestly, "Hruzen was the Sandaime for so long, and Danzo and several of us elders have been assisting him wholeheartedly. There is a reason why we are so wary of the Uchiha."

Two assistants, an elder, and a former Hokage, have a shallow foundation and don't even have their own loyal confidants.

As several old guys took turns to fight, Namikaze Minato, who was wearing a divine robe and carrying the Hokage's pocket, said with a headache: "Third-generation sama, elder Danzo, I understand your intentions, but now that this war is about to end, I have become the Hokage, so I need to promote the ninjas who participated in the war according to their merits. Luofu has reached the standard for promotion in terms of strength and completed tasks."

"Then give him the qualification to participate in the Jonin meeting." Mitomon Yan said: "The Uchiha clan is responsible for the village's security team, so the Uchiha clan cannot be allowed to interfere in the village's decision-making. He can be given honor, but he must not be given power."

"No." Danzo flatly denied: "Neither honor nor power can be given. Don't forget, this guy is an Uchiha."

It was really hard for Minato Namikaze to understand why Danzo, the Sandaime and others had such strong hostility towards the Uchiha.

"In this war, the Uchiha sacrificed a lot. If the village doesn't show any support or even turns a blind eye, I'm worried that we won't be able to convince the people!" Namikaze Minato said earnestly, "No matter what, the Uchiha is still a member of the village now."

"Minato, you just became Hokage, and you don't know many things yet, so you should listen to us old guys this time." Sarutobi Hiruzen relit his pipe and said, "Let's give Uchiha Rofu an S-level mission. By the way, give the Uchiha clan a few ANBU quotas. The Uchiha clan did have sacrifices in the war, but the sacrifices of others were not small either."

If it were Danzo Shimura, En Mitokado and Koharu Utane, then Minato Namikaze would still have the courage to argue with them.

But now Sarutobi Hiruzen is obviously ready to make the final decision. If he continues to refute, it will become a conflict between himself, the fourth generation, and the third generation.

Even after becoming the fourth Hokage in name only, Minato Namikaze was still very clear that he, as the Hokage, did not have much real power at all.

Among his subordinates, except for a few Hokage guards, even the power of the Anbu is still in the hands of Sarutobi Hiruzen and there has been no handover.

In this situation, if he insisted on his argument, the only one who would suffer would be him, the fourth generation.

Even though he was extremely unwilling in his heart, Minato Namikaze finally gritted his teeth and agreed to the demands of the four old guys.

I'm in the Hokage's office, and have just decided on the rewards for Uchiha and Luofu in this mission.

With a Senbon in his mouth, Shiranui Genma knocked on the door and said, "Hokage, Uchiha Rava has returned to the village and requested to report the results of the mission."

Before Minato Namikaze could speak.

Sarutobi Hiruzen said directly: "Let him in. It just so happens that we have already discussed his promotion and reward!!"

He frowned subconsciously and felt more and more aggrieved.

In just a moment, Luo Fu, dressed in tight clothes, without a forehead protector or any Uchiha clan symbols, appeared in the Hokage's office.

When seeing Konoha F4 and Minato Namikaze gathered in the office, Luo Fu couldn't help but smile playfully.

"Jonin Uchiha Rafu, greetings to the Hokage-sama."

Luofu's posture was very casual, without any of the etiquette that other ninjas had when handing over tasks.

You know, even a senior ninja needs to kneel on one knee during the task handover process in order to demonstrate the authority of the Hokage.

But it was obvious that in Luofu's eyes, neither the fourth generation leader Minato Namikaze nor Sarutobi Hiruzen and others were qualified to make him kneel on one knee.

"Uchiha Luofu, are you defying the authority of the Hokage?"

Unexpectedly, the first person who jumped out was Danzo Shimura.

He is obviously just an elder, and what he holds in his hands is the shameful root. But now, Luofu's performance has stimulated Shimura Danzo to the point that he almost jumps up.

The position of Hokage has always been Danzo Shimura's obsession. To a certain extent, this obsession with Hokage even made Danzo Shimura subconsciously raise the value of Hokage infinitely.

Luofu did not follow the rules and kneel on one knee in front of the Hokage, and he was the first one who couldn't accept it.

"As I recall, my mission doesn't seem to have anything to do with you, right?" Luo Fu sneered and said without saying thank you, "It was the Third Hokage who issued the mission to me, but now it is the Fourth Hokage who is in office, so the handover process of the mission is naturally a little special."

"How outrageous. At this moment, Shimura Danzo hated Luofu even more.

"Alright, Danzo." Sarutobi Hiruzen said while puffing on his cigarette, "Your mission was indeed issued when I was in office, but if I remember correctly, the mission you were given was to kill the Scorch Release Yegura of the Sand Village."

"That's right." Luo Fu nodded.

"Although I am no longer the Hokage, I am still the Hokage's advisor and a member of the Council of Elders. I want to ask you, what happened to the mission? What happened to Daichi? Is Ye Cang dead or alive? If dead, who killed her? If alive, where is she?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen is obviously much smarter than Shimura Danzo. At the very least, he is not like Shimura Danzo who would only hold on to unimportant issues.
