After taking over the snake uncle's foundation, Sasuke came to surrender on his own initiative.

The violently shaking Four Purple Flame Formation finally calmed down.

The spider-web-like cracks on the surface of the barrier were slowly repaired as the chakra of the Four Sound Ninjas was infused into it.

"Master Yinzhu..."

Zabuza looked solemnly at the interior of the barrier, but only the dazzling white light occupied his entire vision.

After a moment, the dazzling light slowly dissipated, revealing the scene inside the barrier.

The first thing Zabuza noticed was Otontake's drastic change in appearance.

At this moment, his whole body was emitting a nearly two-foot dark red hazy halo, which quickly turned into dots of starlight and spread in the air. On his body surface, there was also a basic Susanoo skeleton covered with black gas like a lamp flame.

Yin Zhu panted slightly as he stood inside the skeleton, blood flowing from his right eye socket and dripping down his angular face.

But even so, he still had a faint smile on his face.

This calmness and composure shocked Zabuza.

He turned his head and looked to the other side.

The thin Sarutobi Hiruzen was lying on the ground motionless.

There was a big hole in his heart, and the old-fashioned armor on his body was shattered. Scarlet blood was flowing out from all over his body, forming a huge pool on the ground.

With such injuries and amount of bleeding, even if he didn't die on the spot, even if Tsunade arrived in time, the Third Hokage would have no chance of survival.

Yin Zhu supported his knee with one hand and slowly stood up.

The white clothes were intact. With a trace of blood on the corner of his mouth, he turned his head to look outside the barrier, and a slightly ferocious arc slowly formed at the corner of his mouth.

His eyes fell on Tayuya and he waved his hand gently.

Tayuya's face instantly flushed bright red, and she cried out excitedly.

"Yes! Lord Yinzhu!"

The four purple flame formations that shot straight into the sky slowly became transparent from top to bottom at this moment.

Until it dissipates.

And Sarutobi Hiruzen never knew until his death that the one who killed him, Ototake, was actually the most inconspicuous one among the 38th graduates of Konoha Ninja Academy!

Also a...

The person forgotten by Konoha.

......

Konoha Village.

A group of people were walking slowly towards the village entrance.

"Brother Yinzhu, we are invaders. Is it really okay to walk so slowly?"

"Don't worry, they don't dare to chase after us."

"......" Looking at Yinzhu who looked calm, Karin, who was standing close to his right, couldn't help but wonder, "Brother Yinzhu, how did you know?"

"Because Konoha has always been like this." Yinzhu turned his head and smiled at Karin.

There was a hint of sarcasm in his tone. "Maybe not in the future, but at least during the decades when Sarutobi Hiruzen was in power, Konoha has always bullied the weak and feared the strong."

Behind him, Ningci raised a cold smile and nodded in agreement, "Ototake-sama...Ototake-sama is right."

"Oh..." Karin nodded, not quite understanding, with her little mouth pouted, so Yinzhu couldn't help but rub her little head, eyebrows curved, "What's going on? I feel that this girl with glasses is a little cute..."

Yin Zhu smiled and shook his head slightly. "Sure enough, am I too thirsty? Hahaha..."

behind.

The smoke above Konoha Village rolled up into the sky and had not yet completely dissipated.

Ningji, dressed in white, suddenly stopped.

"What's wrong?" Yin Zhu turned around, stunned for a moment, seemed to understand something, and asked with a smile. "If you want, you can send your father to the next day..."

"No." Neji simply shook his head.

His father's remains were taken away by the Cloud Ninja, and what is left in the Hyuga clan's territory is just a cenotaph. It makes no difference whether it is placed in Konoha or moved to the Sound Village.

"Someone is chasing us from behind." Ningji looked at Yinzhu and spoke softly.

Hearing this, Karin immediately tilted her head and looked at Yinzhu, with a hint of ridicule on her face. She covered her mouth and laughed, "Hehehe... Brother Yinzhu, did you get slapped in the face?"

"Hmm?" Yin Zhu was startled, but he didn't feel embarrassed, but a hint of surprise appeared on his face, "No, why did he come after me from Konoha?"

The strongest person in Konoha now is Jiraiya, but even if he has activated the Sage Mode, Ototake is not afraid at all.

Besides.

Sarutobi Hiruzen's body is still warm, Gai has been unable to get out of bed for nearly half a month, and Kakashi has not yet mastered the "Kamui".

Danzo and his "root" never showed up, maybe they are applauding in the underground headquarters now, or even if it is not inconvenient for them to show up, they may come to thank Yinzhu and practice it for him personally.

Tsunade is indulging in gambling to escape reality, and Orochimaru has just reopened.

The remaining elite jonin such as Ino-Shika-cho and Asuma, although they are the face of a large ninja village, pose no threat to Yinzhu.

"Hehe..." Yin Zhu smiled.

Think about Konoha now, it actually doesn't have any outstanding ninjas.

But Kimimaro's body tensed up slightly. He looked at Neji, and the two peace eyebrows on his forehead came closer again. "Who is coming?"

"Could it be that guy who calls himself an immortal?" Karin curled her lips.

"That guy is very powerful!" Shigeo turned and looked towards the dense forest behind him with a solemn expression, as if facing a formidable enemy.

"Don't panic." Yin Zhu's voice remained calm.

Let’s not talk about whether Jiraiya can beat him.

Even if Jiraiya wanted to catch up, the two high-level advisors of Konoha would stop him from avenging his teacher under the pretext of "considering the overall situation" and stabilizing Konoha Village.

After following Naruto for so many years, Ototake still doesn’t know the nature of the Konoha high-level officials?

Everyone stopped and stood there waiting.

Yinzhu found that except for himself and Ningji, most of the others looked tensely toward the back of the dense forest, ready for battle.

He glanced at the silent Neji and immediately noticed the teasing hidden in the boy's eyes. A happy smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he thought to himself.

"This kid...it seems like he has finally gotten over it. Now he has learned how to play tricks on his friends..."

Yinzhu didn't say anything either, and like an old father who saw his child grow up, he cooperated with Ningji to finish the scene.

He just crossed his arms, leaned against a tree, and glanced around. He was stunned. "What a coincidence, this is... the place where I hid when I blocked Orochimaru..."

Within two minutes, a young figure appeared in the woods behind.

Yinzhu opened his Sharingan and focused his sight nearly a thousand meters away.

After his Sharingan evolved to the Mangekyō, it evolved once more. Now, although Ototake's farsightedness is still not as good as Neji's Byakugan, it is actually not much worse than that of ordinary Hyuga clan members.

Suddenly.

Three magatamas, one single and one pair, caught his eyes.

Yin Zhu narrowed his eyes and murmured in surprise, "Erzhuzi..."

"Ok?"

Upon hearing this, Neji and the others looked at each other, all a little confused, not knowing who the "Second Pillar" that Ototake was referring to was.

Soon, everyone opened their Sharingan curiously.

A figure dressed in navy blue clothes moved quickly between the tree trunks and approached their location quickly.

Exquisite facial features and handsome black bangs.

There was also the fan logo on the clothes, and the pair of eyes that suddenly brightened up after seeing their group, and the pace that was pushed to the limit with gritted teeth, all of which made the faces of the Sound Ninjas show surprise.

"Sasuke Uchiha?"

"The orphan of the Uchiha from Konoha Village? Why is he chasing after me?"

"I guess he found the organization because he saw Lord Ototake's Sharingan?"

But only Yin Zhu knew who the guy who was chasing him was and what he wanted to do.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, his emotions were complicated, "That's... the reincarnation of Indra... How did he find me..."

After a while.

pat-

The boy jumped down from the branch of a large tree and landed directly in front of the crowd.

His chest rose and fell violently, he stood up straight, raised his head and looked at his youthful and handsome face, his eyes fell directly on Yin Zhu who was in the middle of the crowd.

His tone was loud and firm, "Sir, I want to follow you! Please accept me as your disciple!"

boom--! ! !

Like a thunderclap in a clear sky, Yin Zhu's feet staggered and a momentary daze appeared on his face.

History seems to be repeating itself.

nine years ago.

Same location.

An 11-year-old boy said the same thing to Orochimaru...
