Naruto: I didn't say this is the real Hokage.

Before coming to the Hokage Village, Naruto never thought that he would meet someone here who was beyond his expectations.

Jigen, or rather...Otsutsuki Isshiki.

At this moment, he was dressed like an ascetic monk, standing at the forefront of the team of villagers from the Hokage Village.

"Who is that monk?"

"That was the master specially invited by Madara-sama to perform the prayer for the founding ceremony of the Hokage Village."

Naruto almost laughed out of anger when he heard this answer.

Let this "master" pray for the Hokage Village... What on earth was Madara thinking? !

Isshiki Otsutsuki thought he had hidden himself very well and no one among those present would know his true identity.

pity……

One of the secret deals between Naruto and Madara was to have Madara secretly investigate the "Kara" organization that had been lurking in the ninja world.

So apart from Naruto, Madara-sama, who learned the appearance information of all members of the Kara organization from Naruto, must have recognized him a long time ago.

Then it is self-evident why Madara-sama placed this guy in the most prominent position off the field...

……

"After the village building ceremony is over, don't do anything yet. Let me, Uchiha Madara, try out the quality of this guy you praised so highly."

Madara appeared silently behind Naruto, crossed his arms and said with a cocky look on his face.

"It seems that you have already found this guy's trail... Why didn't you inform me in advance?"

"No need, it's just a grain of sand... I, Uchiha Madara, can destroy it with a flick of my hand."

Madara: (?`^′?) Humph!

Naruto: (ー ー゛)…

I have to say that Madara-sama is really handsome when he is confident, but... he is a little too confident.

Although Isshiki Ōtsutsuki is now only parasitic in Jigen's brain, he can forcibly revive him at any time through the wedge planted in Jigen's body;

And after Otsutsuki Isshiki fully recovered... Naruto felt that he was not someone that Madara-sama, who was still in his Impure World Reincarnation body, could handle.

"By the way, how did you find him? And did you find the base of the Kara organization?"

"He hasn't founded the Shell Organization yet, so how can we find him...

When I went to the temple to ask someone to pray for my Hokage Village, I happened to see him practicing in that temple...

As you expected, this guy is now hiding in the Kingdom of Light."

Speaking of this, Madara couldn't help but be curious about why Naruto was so sure that the Kara organization was now hiding in the Land of Light.

In fact, this is not difficult to guess, because the most troublesome thing about the Kara organization in Boruto is their endless scientific ninja tools.

Looking at the entire ninja world, the country with the strongest development of scientific ninja tools is undoubtedly the former Kingdom of Lightning, which is now the Kingdom of Light.

After all... the super cannon in the original book that can easily destroy the moon is not something that everyone can easily take out.

"Ha~"

Naruto suddenly let out a light laugh.

"So today you specifically asked several ninja villages to bring their main combat forces here, not only to participate in the founding ceremony of your Hokage Village, but also to... wipe out Otsutsuki Isshiki in one fell swoop?"

"Yes, after today, the deal between you and me will be almost complete, and you should fulfill your promise to me...

Resurrect Izuna, and resurrect her completely and thoroughly!"

Madara looked directly into Naruto's eyes, and the flames that burst out from his eyes almost burned Naruto.

"…I'm sorry, I can't revive Izuna for now."

Madara: (ー_ー)!!

"Why?!"

“Because I haven’t gathered all the resurrection coin fragments yet… Mainly, I didn’t expect you to be so fast.

But don't worry, as long as I collect a resurrection coin, I will definitely resurrect your brother as soon as possible."

Naruto's tone was full of sincerity, and Madara remained silent after hearing it.

Until a moment later...

"…Don't forget what you promised."

"rest assured."

Madara turned around and left, as if he had made some kind of decision.

……

[Something is wrong...very wrong!]

Although he didn't know what was wrong, Otsutsuki Isshiki's intuition told him that he was being targeted.

[It seems that after I go back this time, I should put the establishment of my own organization on the agenda.

It just so happens that Sanzu Amado...】

Bang!Bang!Bang!

……

A burst of fireworks explosions suddenly sounded, successfully disrupting Otsutsuki Isshiki's thoughts.

"Master, it's time for you to start praying."

"……OK."

At the prompting of the Uchiha clan member behind him, Jigen pretended to sit cross-legged on the ground and began to pray.

Although he seemed to have his eyes closed, he was actually observing everything around him through tiny gaps.

The bad feeling in my heart became more and more serious, and it even seemed to be developing into a life-and-death crisis...

His intuition told him that someone was secretly watching his every move, but he could not find out who it was.

[Could it be that someone has discovered my true identity... Impossible, I have been hiding since the era of the Divine Tree and have never been discovered by anyone.

Could it be that... the other party is plotting to take something from me? !

But my current identity is just an ordinary ascetic monk, what can I have that is worthy of others' covetousness...】

Otsutsuki Isshiki's thoughts were in a mess, and for a moment he was uneasy and even began to doubt everything.

The Uchiha clan member next to him just moved his fingers slightly, and Otsutsuki Isshiki subconsciously wanted to attack him.

...But fortunately he held himself back in time.

As time passed, the prayer session that Otsutsuki Isshiki was in charge of was about to come to an end.

Still nothing happened at the scene, which made Otsutsuki Isshiki involuntarily wonder if his intuition was wrong.

[Heh~ Am I overthinking it? ]

Ōtsutsuki Isshiki laughed at himself in his heart and put his mind at ease for the moment;

But at the same time, just in case, he decided to leave immediately after praying and not stay here any longer!

……

After a while.

"The prayer is over, so I will take my leave now."

"Ah?! Master, aren't you going to stay and continue to participate in the celebration?"

"No, I suddenly remembered that I have something urgent to do in the temple, so I'll take my leave now."

After politely declining the kind invitation from the villagers of Hokage Village, Otsutsuki Isshiki turned around and left without any reluctance.

Even after he left the Hokage Village, Otsutsuki Isshiki didn't see anyone jumping out to stop him...

Otsutsuki Isshiki was completely relieved. It turned out that the sense of crisis just now was just an illusion of his.

Otsutsuki Isshiki chuckled and shook his head, then slowed down his pace and walked towards the temple where he was currently staying.

Little did he know that just ahead of him, a certain Ninja Dance King had been waiting for him on his way...

……

"Naruto, the ceremony is about to begin... where are you going?"

"…to the bathroom."

Hinata: ?_? ? ? ?
