Restarting Life: Call Me the Leader of Konoha

Konoha Ninja Cemetery.

The silent and deserted dusk cast its last rays of sunlight here.

And in this afterglow, a black shadow emerged silently.

Rather, it was a figure wearing a black cloak...

"Ah."

A hoarse voice came from under the cloak.

And some strange symphonies of metal and iron.

"If I can't protect the people I'm supposed to protect, what's the point of this power?"

A shackled, lifeless hand stretched out from under the wide sleeves.

I picked up a few bunches of white flowers in front of me and swayed them away.

The torn petals fell down one after another, and returned to calm with the sound of ringing.

Under the black hood was a yellow and black pattern that resembled a tiger or leopard.

And engraved between the veins is a scarlet eye with a strange glow...

-----------------

into the night.

The nights in Konoha were usually silent.

“Wow wow wow——”

In the remote courtyard, the sound of a baby crying echoed.

"Okay, okay, don't cry, Sasuke. No matter what happens, brother will definitely protect you..."

Holding a few months old baby in his arms, Uchiha Itachi raised his head and stared at the moon hanging in the sky in a daze.

Why...I always feel a little uneasy.

This feeling......

It's really uncomfortable.

It just so happened that my parents went out at this time.

......

In a dark and quiet room.

There were documents and files piled up in a mess on the table.

As the Third Hokage who had long since stepped down, Sarutobi Hiruzen sat leisurely in his seat, holding his pipe and squinting his eyes.

But my mind couldn't calm down for a moment.

According to the news.

The organization called 'Akatsuki' in the Hidden Rain Village seems to have started a war with Hanzo...

To be able to come this far.

It's not hard to see what role someone plays in this.

Danzo...

As the mastermind behind the scenes, he took advantage of Hanzo's suspicious nature to secretly sow discord between the two.

It really fits his style of doing things...

Are they worried that Akatsuki's power will one day threaten Konoha?

There doesn't need to be too many reasons, just this one reason is enough for him to take action.

Even with the help of former enemies...

It's still too extreme!

Stopping killing with killing and fighting violence with violence will only give rise to deeper hatred.

The third generation sighed.

I heard that Orochimaru is also very close to him?

It's not good...

Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned, leaving several wrinkles as deep as ravines.

Suddenly his eyes fixed, he put down the pipe in his hand, and looked into the distance through the window.

The pure white moon exudes a faint, chilly aura.

"No way......"

......

On the street with few pedestrians.

The tall girl walked in front, holding the silver-haired boy by one hand.

"Sister Ye Cang, what happened to you before? Is it really okay?"

After thinking it over again and again, Kakashi couldn't help but ask.

It was hard not to pay attention to the strange things that Ye Cang had shown before.

For Kakashi, perhaps there is no worry about being helpless, but what he is afraid of is like Shisui's "Flash Body Technique", which will make him have no chance to judge...

“No, nothing.

"Kakashi, let's go back early. It's...well, quite cold outside!"

As Ye Cang spoke, he shrank his neck, as if he really felt a little cold.

As a ninja, and a ninja who has mastered the bloodline limit of Scorch Release, how could he be afraid of the cold?

Kakashi had long been accustomed to the other party's "acting skills", and suddenly felt amused.

But what he held in his hand was still cold.

"Okay, then we will..."

"Besides, Kakashi, I always have an uneasy feeling, as if something is about to happen..."

Ye Cang stopped and said with a worried look.

It's not an illusion...

Kakashi was stunned, and could clearly see the worry hidden in Ye Cang's eyes.

It was the same feeling as mine, as a ninja, of a premonition of some kind of crisis!

As for the source of this uneasiness...

As I was thinking, suddenly a series of flashing pictures suddenly appeared in my mind out of thin air!

It was a desolate scene with broken walls and howling wild winds...

Konoha!

Kakashi's mind was mixed with thoughts, and he suddenly turned around and looked behind him.

It is still a seemingly peaceful and tranquil village.

However, the next moment, a nameless wind arose, sweeping in with terrifying wind pressure...

It seemed as if something was waking up from the deepest part of the storm!

"Kakashi!" Ye Cang exclaimed.

The violent wind and waves caused the two to take a few steps back.

All the rubble and wood chips along the way were swept into the air!

Accompanied by the sound of 'creaking' and shouts...

Under the bright moonlight, the tranquil atmosphere is gone!

Kakashi gritted his teeth, hunched his body slightly, and pressed his center of gravity firmly on the ground.

With one hand tightly holding Ye Cang, he shielded himself from the wind and sand with the other hand and pushed away the forehead protector.

Through the smoke that obscures the light,

I caught a glimpse of a dark red shadow...

That is...

-----------------

"Sama Sandai! The Nine-Tails, the Nine-Tails has appeared in the village!"

"I see."

Listening to the roar outside, the third generation calmed down and fastened his martial arts uniform quickly.

"Leave it to me. You are responsible for protecting non-combatants."

Nine-tailed...

Kushina's seal has been broken!

Even after taking so many precautions, is it still not avoided?

Sure enough, the worst situation happened!

The vague uneasiness in my heart these days has now become a reality!

Sarutobi Hiruzen's expression darkened.

Lake Biwa

"Dispatch the ninjas in the village to evacuate the people and the younger generation to a safe area, and the rest will follow me to resist the Nine-Tails!"

"Hiruzen."

A figure emerged from the shadows.

Danzo, with several bandages wrapped around his forehead, walked in slowly with the help of a cane.

"Let's arrange for the Uchiha clan to be responsible for evacuating the people, and the rest of the ninjas will join the battle."

"What are you talking about!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned and said: "The Uchiha clan is an important force for the village to fight against the Nine-Tails. With the Uchiha's Sharingan, perhaps we still have a chance to control the Nine-Tails..."

"It is precisely because they are likely to be controlled by the Uchiha that we cannot allow them to participate in the war."

Danzo slammed his cane into the ground.

"Sarutobi, you should understand.

"The Uchiha may be behind this incident. We must not let them get involved. Once the Uchiha controls the Nine-Tails, the village will be in danger..."

"You are wrong, Danzo!

"Put aside this groundless suspicion. Now is the time when we all need to work together to overcome difficulties. How can we exclude any tribe in the village?"

Once you do that...

How will the villagers view Uchiha in the future?

Everyone would think that the Uchiha was untrustworthy...

Once the seeds of doubt were planted, rifts arose between the villagers.

Doing so will only make the already difficult contradictions worse!

'roar!--'

Just as he was about to say something else, a deafening roar suddenly came from outside the window.

Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes moved slightly.

We can't delay any longer!

If we drag it on, it will only cause greater casualties.

"Sarutobi, I'm doing this for the sake of the village."

"Whatever you say!" Sarutobi Hiruzen glared at him fiercely.

"My Anbu are at your disposal, so make sure you handle them well and don't cause me any more trouble!"

After saying that, he quickly flashed away through the corridor.

"Don't worry, I will, Hiruzen."

Looking at the receding figure, Danzo squinted his eyes and murmured.

-----------------

On the calm lake.

After wrapping around four huge rocks, the ferocious runes like chains suddenly disappeared.

As soon as the restraints loosened, the red-haired woman in the center collapsed.

"Stop right there,

"What on earth are you going to do..."

Kushina raised her head with difficulty, looking at the figure in a black cloak walking towards her.

Who the hell is this guy!

“Control the Nine-Tails and destroy Konoha.

"I have been waiting for this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for a long time..."

The man in black robe turned around, and a faint bloodshot eye shone from under the tiger-skin mask.

“As expected of the Uzumaki clan, they are so tenacious that even if the Nine-Tails was taken away from them, they still wouldn’t die immediately.

"In that case..."

A husky voice came from under the hood.

"Kyuubi!"

The huge dark red fox roared towards the sky, and three magatama rotated rapidly in its pupils!

"Since you are the container that seals this guy, let him kill you, Uzumaki Kushina..."

'roar!--'

The huge and sharp claws fell from the air with a bang, and before they landed, they had already overturned the originally calm waves!

I vow to crush everything in it.

Including the red-haired woman collapsed below...

The black-robed man's eyes moved slightly as he watched the scene quietly.

In an instant, time seemed to stop at a certain scale.

As the boulder shook and collapsed, a yellow light flashed in the smoke and dust!

"You are indeed worthy of being called the 'Yellow Flash', but, Minato, you are still a step late."

The man in black robe said calmly, as if he didn't care at all.

The seal of the Nine-Tails has been completely lifted.

All of this has become a foregone conclusion!

-----------------

"Kushina...I'm sorry I'm late."

A figure holding a red-haired woman suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

"Minato, Naruto… Naruto, how is he?"

Kushina's hair was covered with sweat and she clutched Minato's clothes tightly.

"Don't worry, Naruto is fine. I've taken him to a safe place."

"That's good......"

Kushina sighed softly, her heart tightened, and she suddenly remembered something.

"Minato, hurry up, we must stop him and the Nine-Tails...

"That man is going to use the Nine-Tails to crush Konoha."

Flatten Konoha?

Minato's eyes sharpened and he glanced coldly behind him.

A tiger-skin hood was reflected in the azure pupils.

Who are you...

"Kushina, I'll take you back first."

Minato said, looking down.

Whether fighting against the Nine-Tails or fighting with the mysterious man in black, Kushina can't afford the risk of being affected at this moment!

With a thought, he disappeared from the spot in an instant.

Watching Minato disappear before his eyes.

The black-robed man's eyes were calm.

"From the side marked in advance, jump to another space in an instant... This is Namikaze Minato's Flickering Body Technique, the Flying Thunder God Technique known as 'divine speed'.

“What a convenient jutsu.

"But. Even though you have the fastest 'speed' in the ninja world, Minato, you have never caught up with anything..."

From beneath the wide sleeves, one could faintly hear the crisp sound of trembling chains.

The man in black robe looked at the empty space where the figure disappeared and muttered to himself.

"Not even once..."

Finally paid off the 2k I owed yesterday!

But I guess I'll have to buy on credit today...

Do your best!
