Chapter 155: The Arrival of the Envoys from Iwagakure and the Cloud Ninja Village

~13 min read 2,467 words

Thinking of this, Tsunade finally gave a bitter smile; just as Uchiha Feiyu said, since they had already started eating human blood buns, there was no point in pretending to be noble anymore.

It wasn't just Uchiha Feiyu who treated the entire Ninja World as a vegetable garden; weren't they, the cauldrons who relied on Uchiha Feiyu, also eating until their mouths were dripping with oil?

Since that was the case, what position did she have to mock others for doing the same thing?

"Sister Tsunade, you just think too much. Why do you care about those ordinary Leaf Ninja? They are selling their lives for money anyway; since they became ninja, there will always be a day like that, right!"

Uzumaki Kushina hugged Uchiha Feiyu tightly, her red hair rubbing against Uchiha Feiyu's face and shoulders, a careless smile on her face:

"No matter the situation of their death, I don't think they would care. Ninja, isn't their final destination death?"

Hearing this, Tsunade rolled her eyes:

"Kushina, don't forget, everyone here seems to be a ninja!"

"Is that so? But I only know that I am Feiyu's person now, and I don't care about things like being a ninja!"

"Could it be that you, Tsunade, care more about your status as a ninja and Hokage than Feiyu?"

Tsunade sighed:

"It's not like you don't know the methods this evil Uchiha brat uses to deal with women; what woman could ever escape his grasp?"

Remembering in Naruto, Itachi Uchiha was the first Uchiha to manifest the Mangekyo Sharingan; at the time, the so-called strongest Genjutsu Tsukuyomi, the strongest physical attack Amaterasu, and the human-sized giant Susanoo were all almost unimaginably powerful ninjutsu.

'Speaking of which, it's quite troublesome to either wear a mask or use Genjutsu every time. Now that even Orochimaru has been whitewashed and can walk directly in the Ninja Village, should I have Tsunade whitewash me one day and issue a pardon?'

By this calculation, the current Itachi Uchiha was definitely the most talented person in the Uchiha Clan, and coupled with his psychopathic personality, after raising him for a few more years, he could almost find a way to make him awaken the Mangekyo.

"Kushina, you don't need to say anymore. I was just sighing; perhaps, as Feiyu said, this is just me being pretentious!"

If Uchiha Feiyu had been born ten years later, he would have had to nip this root of disaster in the bud no matter what; after all, this guy wiped out the Uchiha Clan at thirteen or fourteen, regardless of gender, age, the old, the weak, the sick, the disabled, ninja, or civilians... anyway, except for his younger brother, even those who had the slightest connection to the Uchiha had their entire families killed by him.

In other words, the eight or nine-year-old brat in front of him was still an out-and-out genius, and his strength was definitely at the Chunin level.

Itachi Uchiha, a strong contender for the number one spot on the Uchiha psychopath leaderboard; by the way, another strong contender was named Obito Uchiha, who wanted to destroy humanity because his secret crush had died.

He didn't think that just because he didn't have a bad relationship with the Uchiha, this guy would spare his life; he even killed his own little girlfriend who was also a foreign Uchiha, let alone a stranger like himself?

After enjoying himself in the Hokage Office, Uchiha Feiyu put his Anbu mask back on and strolled out.

'A genius of the Uchiha Clan, this age range, plus this kind of deep-seated bitter temperament, is this guy Itachi Uchiha?'

With a bunch of random thoughts in his head, Uchiha Feiyu suddenly paused slightly and looked at a young ninja in the distance.

Back then, Madara Uchiha had even had his Indra Chakra refined by Uchiha Feiyu, so the Indra Chakra definitely hadn't been reincarnated.

But now, Uchiha Feiyu had become the behind-the-scenes controller of Konoha, so he naturally didn't think Itachi Uchiha was any threat; instead, he was quite interested in Itachi Uchiha's talent.

That was only counting Sasuke Uchiha's Indra Chakra cheat; otherwise, he wouldn't be a strong contender for first place, but definitely the first place.

Not to mention his thought process, in terms of talent alone, Itachi Uchiha was definitely among the best in the entire Uchiha Clan and was a strong contender for first place.

That was a young ninja who looked to be eight or nine years old, but his expression was solemn, revealing a sense of gloom, and he felt somewhat precocious.

In other words, the current Sasuke Uchiha was probably the same as Naruto Uzumaki, who had been drained of Ashura Chakra; his talent would have to be a level lower.

So, ninja who graduated at eight or nine years old now and could become Genin were not comparable to those cannon fodder from the war era!

In that period, to graduate, one only needed to learn the basic Three Body Technique, and have a little foundation in Taijutsu and Shuriken Throwing Technique to pass, but in this peaceful era, if you wanted to graduate early, you had to at least demonstrate Chunin-level Power Level.

"However, this guy's Mangekyo has nothing new... oh well, after all, the version updates too fast; it's only natural that Tsukuyomi and Amaterasu can't compare to Kotoamatsukami and Kamui."

Of course, Uchiha Feiyu didn't care about geniuses at all; what he really cared about was the clan emblem behind this brat, which looked like a ping-pong paddle.

Ever since the Ninja World War ended and Tsunade took over as Hokage, the graduation age for the Ninja Academy had been set at 12 years old; only a very small number of students with extremely high talent and an urgent desire to graduate early could do so.

It was a pity that it fell apart after the version update; Tsukuyomi was just a little brother in front of Kotoamatsukami. Uchiha Feiyu now used the Tsukuyomi Space as a training ground, and the strongest fire, Amaterasu, hadn't burned anyone to death by the end; if it hadn't taken off the Fourth Raikage's arm to gain some prestige, it would have almost been reduced to a merciful technique like the Great Fireball Technique.

Even if he got these eyes, they wouldn't be of much use to Uchiha Feiyu himself, but regardless, they were still Mangekyo; even if Uchiha Feiyu didn't use them himself, he could strip the innate divine abilities from them and give them to others.

At this moment, Itachi Uchiha seemed to notice Uchiha Feiyu's gaze and looked up at the masked Anbu not far away.

Uchiha Feiyu looked at Itachi Uchiha and nodded slightly, showing no sign that he had just been thinking about how to provoke Itachi Uchiha and gouge out his eyeballs.

Itachi Uchiha didn't pay much attention to it either; as a genius of the Uchiha, the curious gazes of others were commonplace to him. He just nodded politely in return and turned to leave.

Now, the entire Konoha was basically under the control of Tsunade, which meant it was under the control of Uchiha Feiyu; if there was one exception, it might be the Uchiha Clan and the Hyuga Clan.

Even in Uchiha Feiyu's Concubine Group, there were still no female ninja from these two clans. This was because Uchiha Feiyu hadn't paid much attention to them, but also because these two clans were self-contained, and even Tsunade's Anbu couldn't infiltrate them.

Forcing women directly, although Uchiha Feiyu wasn't incapable of doing it, was always done with a strong sense of purpose. In his daily life, he wouldn't be that tasteless. His massive Concubine Group across the three major Ninja Villages was basically selected and offered to him by Tsunade, Terumi Mei, and Pakura.

As long as one engaged in Dual Cultivation with Uchiha Feiyu, even an ordinary female ninja could at least become a Jonin. Even if this were said openly, the female ninja willing to do so could line up from the Hokage Building to the gates of Konoha!

It was precisely because of this that Tsunade couldn't infiltrate the Uchiha and Hyuga, and naturally, Uchiha Feiyu wouldn't have concubines from those two clans.

Half a month passed quickly. On the morning of this day, two teams of ninja from other Ninja Villages arrived at Konoha.

They were the ninja sent by Iwagakure and the Cloud Ninja Village to sign the Peace Agreement. These two teams of ninja arrived with great fanfare; as soon as they entered the gates of Konoha, they attracted many passersby to watch.

It was a pity that the current Konoha was not what it used to be. Not to mention those civilian geniuses who hadn't fully transformed into combat power yet, Uchiha Feiyu's Concubine Group alone had greatly increased the strength of the entire Konoha.

Not to mention that there was also Tsunade, who had awakened Wood Release and learned Sage Mode. With such strong confidence in her heart, she naturally didn't care much about the ninja from these two villages.

The ninja who came to sign the Peace Agreement thought they would be welcomed along the way when they arrived at Konoha! As a result, after arriving here, they only saw a dead-fish-eyed white-haired ninja coming to receive them.

"Guests from Iwagakure and the Cloud Ninja Village, hello. I am the Leaf Ninja Kakashi Hatake. Welcome to Konoha."

The white-haired dead-fish-eyed person who came to receive them was obviously Kakashi. The current Kakashi was not as miserable as in the original work; at least his two little partners hadn't died yet, but he was also influenced by Uchiha Feiyu, so he was quite unmotivated when doing things.

The mission belonged to the village, but his life was his own... oh, this mission didn't seem to require risking his life; that would be a waste of my time watching adult videos!

The two lead Jonin from the Cloud Ninja and Rock Ninja looked at the unmotivated Kakashi in front of them, and even if they had any dissatisfaction in their hearts, they couldn't say it out loud.

Lack of motivation aside, Kakashi was almost the most potential-filled ninja of Konoha's younger generation. He had already entered the Shadow-level by the end of the Third Ninja World War, and now, after several years, he was definitely a solid Shadow-level powerhouse.

Konoha could send a Shadow-level powerhouse to welcome them, so no matter what, they couldn't find any fault, even if this Shadow-level powerhouse's attitude was a bit problematic.

"I didn't expect that the one coming to welcome us would be the famous Jonin Kakashi. During the Third Ninja World War, I was well taken care of by you!"

The leader of the Iwagakure ninja said sarcastically. Kakashi looked at him with dead-fish eyes for a moment, then scratched his head:

"Um... who are you!"

This sentence immediately caused the Iwagakure ninja to lose his composure, and he shouted loudly:

"I am Huoguang! Look at this eye of mine; this eye was blinded by you!"

"Oh, so it's Huoguang, I remember now."

Kakashi waved his hand and spoke with a perfunctory expression; when he entered the Rock Ninja Battlefield, his strength was roughly Quasi-Kage level, and during two years of fighting, it had rapidly risen to Shadow-level, with several hundred ninja killed or wounded by his blade, so how could he possibly remember who this Rock Ninja was?

It is well known that Iwagakure has the highest number of Jonin among the five great Ninja Villages, but their quality is also the worst; often, the special Jonin or even Elite Chunin of other Ninja Villages can battle against the Jonin of Iwagakure.

The overemphasis on collectivism makes Iwagakure's discipline strict and their joint ninjutsu proficient, but it also makes the ninja of Iwagakure uniform and overly homogenized, so naturally, Kakashi would not have much of an impression.

"You guy, you don't look like you remembered at all, you've completely forgotten me, haven't you! Damn it, one day I will..."

"Lord Huoguang, do not forget our objective!"

A Rock Ninja standing behind this Jonin named Huoguang hurriedly grabbed his arm to persuade him; Huoguang reacted immediately, snorted, and did not flare up again.

Of course, he thought about it carefully; even if he did flare up... could he actually win against Kakashi?

He was already nearly 30 years old when he participated in the Ninja World War, while Kakashi was only thirteen or fourteen at the time; he had almost been killed in one strike back then, so if they fought now, could there be any other outcome?

Kakashi ignored the somewhat indignant Huoguang; in any case, the other party could not possibly attack him in Konoha, let alone the fact that he was no match for him at all.

He simply recited the welcome speech that the Hokage Tsunade had given him, word for word, in a tone like a repeater:

"Konoha welcomes all ninja who long for peace; thank you all for your hard work in coming from afar. I shall lead you to the guest house in Konoha to rest."

After finishing, Kakashi turned around directly and signaled for this group of foreign ninja behind him to follow; the group of Rock Ninja and Cloud Ninja looked at each other, feeling that this welcome was full of perfunctoriness.

"This guy wouldn't just hack us to death, would he! I keep feeling that this new generation of White Fang of the Leaf is full of coldness and perfunctoriness toward us; could this be a trap set by Konoha?"

The leader of the Cloud Ninja Village, a ninja covered in muscles, said this while rubbing his chin, and after speaking, he glanced left and right.

"You idiot barbarian! If Konoha really wanted to keep us here, they wouldn't need to find anyone to welcome us; the moment we stepped into the gates of Konoha... no, to be precise, the moment we entered the Land of Fire, they could have called a group of ninja to hack us to death!"

"With the status of Konoha, even if they set a trap, it should be to deal with our Third Hokage or your jinchuriki Raikage; why would they need a trap for us?"

Huoguang complained disdainfully to the Cloud Ninja, then turned his head and followed Kakashi toward the Konoha guest house.

The Cloud Ninja was furious, then angry, then extremely angry, and finally... he also followed behind Kakashi's backside toward the Konoha guest house.

There was no help for it; he couldn't very well attack these Iwagakure envoys in Konoha! Otherwise, he didn't know if Huoguang would be unlucky, but he would certainly be unlucky himself.
