Chapter 578: Time flies Itachi God who pulled Shisui to line up to buy cosmetics

Ninja world.

When Fujiwara Tetsuya led the Guixu people into the battle of the other dimension.

The ninja world, which had just emerged from the shadow of the Third War, was once again shrouded in the haze of war.

Although Sarutobi Hiruzen issued a gag order on the turmoil that night and adjusted everything that happened to the highest alert level.

But under the crazy penetration of spies and secret lines from various countries and major ninja villages.

Nine-tail riots~

Konoha was attacked~

The fourth generation Hokage, one of the strongest geniuses in Konoha's history, Minato Namikaze died in battle~

Kushina, the Nine-tail Jinchuriki, died in battle~

Konoha suffered a heavy blow~

One after another, the information that was forcibly suppressed was exposed to the vision of various countries and major ninja villages in the ninja world.

The first to take action were not the five major ninja villages of the same level as Konoha.

But the numerous...…wandering ninjas, underground forces, and small and medium-sized ninja villages who wanted to take advantage of Konoha's weakness and bite off a piece of meat from Konoha.

Until March of the 52nd year of Konoha~

After judging Konoha's exhaustion, the Hidden Cloud Village brazenly dispatched a large number of elite troops and started a long tug-of-war on the long border line in the northeast of the Land of Fire.

As for the Hidden Rock Village~

Although it has nominally formed an alliance with Konoha because of the matter of the Kara Organization.

But for the benefits that can be obtained without any effort.

Ohnoki will naturally not sit idly by.

Rebel ninjas, unknown forces, bandits, wandering ninjas...

Waves after waves crossed the Land of Grass and appeared at the northwest border of Konoha.

Continuously plundering the wealth and resources of surrounding towns.

…Time flies~

Even a few years of time is just an inconspicuous wave in the long history of the ninja world.

With the support of Sarutobi Hiruzen, many Konoha high-level officials... and a group of ninja clans

Konoha gradually regained its former prosperity~

Whether it is the economy, population...infrastructure, all aspects have surpassed the eve of the Nine-tail Rebellion.

"Hey~"

"Have you heard?"

"Those guys from the Hidden Cloud Village have completely retreated from the border...back to the Land of Lightning."

"I heard from the eldest aunt of the son of my seventh aunt's son, the brother-in-law's wife, who works in the administrative department, that the Hidden Cloud Village has planned to end the war, and now...the envoy of the Hidden Cloud Village is on the way."

"It will arrive in Konoha in a few days at most~"

In a newly opened department store, hundreds of elderly aunts lined up in an orderly manner, looking at the gifts placed in front of them with great enthusiasm.

But on the surface, they talked about the latest hot news without boundaries.

"It's finally over."

"In order to stop those hateful invaders, I don't know how many outstanding young people in the village died..."

"Speaking of which, it's all thanks to the Sandaime Hokage."

"If the Sandaime hadn't stood up and turned the tide three years ago, I really don't know what Konoha would be like now."

"Itachi, are you sure this is the place?"

Just as the discussion in the store became more and more mixed.

Two boys wearing Uchiha costumes, holding gift coupons in their hands, appeared at the end of the team in the surprised eyes of a group of aunts.

"Shisui, this is here, this is the new branch of Hongyan International Group in Konoha."

"It is said that all kinds of cosmetics, facial masks... daily necessities inside are new products of Hongyan Group."

"If I can give these things to my mother as a birthday gift... she will be happy."

Over the years, Uchiha Itachi has grown a lot taller.

Looking at Uchiha Itachi immersed in his imagination, Uchiha Shisui rubbed his forehead helplessly.

"So, this is why you brought me here?"

"Shisui, one more person means one more gift."

"I'll leave it to you this time."

"Tomorrow... I'll treat you to three-color meatballs when your mission is over tomorrow."

"..."

Facing Uchiha Itachi's sincere gaze, Uchiha Shisui sighed helplessly and lined up obediently.

Sure enough~

Brothers... I can't refuse at all!

...

Hokage Building.

Three years were also a difficult time for Sarutobi Hiruzen.

For the border war, he woke up in the dark countless times.

But fortunately... all this will end.

"Shinosuke!"

The Shinnosuke mentioned by Sarutobi Hiruzen is naturally his eldest son, now the official head of Konoha Anbu.

Now in Konoha, in addition to Uzumaki Naka and Uzumaki Kyoji...

In the Hokage lineage, in addition to Sarutobi Hiruzen and Danzo, there is a new Kage-level, Sarutobi Shinnosuke, codename of Anbu: Saru.

"Hokage~"

"Shinnosuke, there are no outsiders here, so there is no need to be so reserved."

"Although the senior leaders of Kumogakure, headed by the Fourth Raikage Ai, have reached a consensus on a ceasefire with the village."

"But... my intuition tells me that the envoys sent by Kumogakure... will not honestly complete the peace talks."

"In the next period of time, put aside the things on hand~"

"You will receive the envoys from Kumogakure."

"When this matter is understood... Shinnosuke, it is time for you to withdraw from the Anbu."..

Facing Shinnosuke's calm eyes, Sarutobi Hiruzen felt relieved.

Although Shinnosuke's talent is far from comparable to those of Konoha.

But now... Shinnosuke has also entered the level of Kage after experiencing countless fights, training, and practice.

He has become a trustworthy eldest son!

He has also become the pillar that Konoha can rely on now.

"Quit the Anbu?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen's sudden instruction startled Sarutobi Shinnosuke, and his pupils began to shrink involuntarily.

"That's right~"

"Quit the Anbu!"

"Shinosuke, I'm old~"

"Although I don't want to admit defeat, my energy and reaction... compared to before, have begun to decline gradually."

"I don't know how long I can hold on."

"Shinosuke, I... want you to become the next generation of Konoha's shadow."

Sarutobi Hiruzen's whisper lasted for half an hour~

When Sarutobi Shinnosuke left the Hokage's office not long ago.

A figure suddenly walked out of the corner not far away.

After cautiously looking at the closed wooden door of the Hokage's office, he instantly turned into a wisp of green smoke and disappeared without a trace.

...

"Hiruzen, that guy, actually wants Shinnosuke to become the fifth generation?"

Root base.

In the dark space~

Danzo listened to the report of the visitor, and his eyes were cold.

In the past three years, he has been lurking in the dark. He has been constantly restoring the strength of the root. Although the root is not as strong as it was in its heyday, it still has some strength.Especially... after obtaining several pairs of Sharingan through some secret means.

While suppressing the activity of the first generation cells, his control over Wood Release has reached a new level.

Now he has the capital to peek at the position of Hokage again.

"Shinnosuke... don't blame me as your uncle."

"If you want to blame, blame Hiruzen~"

"For the future of Konoha, the position of Hokage... can only fall into my hands."
