Chapter 736: Visitor from Another World
Bang! Bang!!
On the training ground, two green figures kept flashing and colliding, producing a series of dull impact sounds.
"These two have way too much energy."
Tenten felt too weak to complain.
She had planned to take a good rest today, but was dragged here by Adult Might Guy to watch the battle between him and Might Guy.
"After all, they are Guy-sensei and Little Guy-sensei!"
Lee answered while keeping his eyes fixed on the battlefield, afraid of missing any part of their exciting fight.
For someone who loves taijutsu like him, this is a peak match worth remembering.
Neji also watched seriously as the two Might Guys kept fighting in the open space.
Although his path was somewhat different, he was also a taijutsu ninja, and there was something worth learning from both Might Guys.
Boom!
In the final clash, a slightly thinner figure was sent back eight meters away.
"Hahaha, as expected of 'me'!"
Might Guy let out a hearty laugh and gave a thumbs up to Adult Might Guy.
He was only seventeen, but because of his hard training day and night, plus the effect of the Breathing Technique, even without using the Eight Gates or the Breathing Technique Chakra Mode, his taijutsu far surpassed that of ordinary ninjas.
In the end, Adult Might Guy still had a slight edge.
"That's what I wanted to say too!"
Adult Might Guy also gave a thumbs up to Might Guy and said.
Might Guy was much stronger than he was at seventeen, and not much weaker than himself with over ten more years of training.
Such a gap stirred a strong desire for training in Adult Might Guy's heart—as the same Might Guy, how could he be inferior to another version of himself?
"Since the teachers are working so hard, I have to work even harder too!"
Lee clenched his fists, extremely excited.
Looking at the passionate Adult Might Guy and Lee, Might Guy was visibly moved.
"Then let's work together to become the strongest!"
Might Guy shouted from the bottom of his heart.
The three hugged, the atmosphere filled with fighting spirit.
"Um, Neji, we seem a bit redundant here. Maybe we should go back."
Looking at the three green figures who harmonized like a family, Tenten suggested to Neji.
Compared to Might Guy, she and Neji seemed more like outsiders.
"Tenten, youth is all about training! Let's sweat it out together on the training ground!"
Adult Might Guy flashed beside Tenten, showing two rows of big white teeth and smiling.
"My youth burned out on the battlefield. Now I just want to rest."
Tenten complained.
"In that case, before you rest, let me give you some training advice."
Might Guy said.
He got along very well with Adult Might Guy, and decided to help his disciples.
"Then thank you, Little Guy-sensei."
Although Tenten didn't think Might Guy, also a pure taijutsu ninja, could help her much, since it was his kind intention, she didn't say anything discouraging.
Under Might Guy's direction, Tenten demonstrated her unique fighting style.
Tenten didn't have Lee's powerful physique that could use the Eight Gates, nor Neji's kekkei genkai, but she had money.
An ordinary ninja would carefully ration their ninja tools, but Tenten only cares about how many her scroll can hold.
As a result, Tenten usually employs saturation attacks with ninja tools in battle.
However, that doesn't mean Tenten throws inaccurately—in fact, she is a one-hundred-percent-accurate master of throwing weapons.
The main problem she currently faces is that the maximum power of her ninja tools is not high, and her own combat ability is average—she is too weak once she loses her tools.
"Since you're so accurate with your throws, if you were to master the Armament Haki Secret Art, I bet you'd become really strong."
Might Guy rubbed his chin and said.
With the enhancement of Armament Haki, the maximum power of ninja tools increases dramatically, which would also be a huge boost for Tenten herself.
"What kind of ninjutsu is that?"
Tenten asked curiously.
"To put it simply, it's like this."
Might Guy jumped up, snapped off a tree branch, then gathered a large amount of Armament Haki in his palm to strengthen the branch.
Under the effect of Armament Haki chakra, the tip of the branch turned pitch black.
Shwoosh!
Might Guy hurled the branch fiercely at a rock.
Under Tenten's shocked gaze, the branch pierced through the rock, leaving a small hole behind.
"I'm still mediocre at the Armament Haki Secret Art; if it were Kakashi or the others, they'd be even stronger."
Might Guy explained.
"Even mediocre has this much power—if someone mastered this ninjutsu, that would be incredible!"
Tenten was already thinking about how to obtain the Armament Haki Secret Art—it was too important for her.
"Little Guy-sensei, can you teach me this ninjutsu? I won't let you teach for free; I can offer compensation."
Tenten pressed her palms together and opened her eyes wide.
Since the person who knows it was right in front of her, she naturally asked Might Guy first.
"I'll need to ask Mu Yue-sensei's opinion on that first. But I can teach you the Leaf Dragon God—do you want to learn it?"
Might Guy scratched his head and said.
The Armament Haki Secret Art was taught to him by Mu Yue, and he hasn't graduated yet. Without Mu Yue's permission, he can't just teach it to anyone.
The Leaf Dragon God is different—he not only graduated under Teacher Chen, but Teacher Chen specifically urged him to pass on the Leaf Dragon God so that this taijutsu wouldn't be lost.
Tenten curiously asked about what the Leaf Dragon God taijutsu was, then thanked him and politely declined.
It was a good taijutsu, but it wasn't suitable for her.
"Little Guy-sensei, I want to learn it, can I?"
Rock Lee volunteered.
Might Guy nodded in agreement. After instructing Neji in taijutsu, he began teaching the Leaf Dragon God to Rock Lee.
The next day.
Just as Mu Yue and the others finished breakfast at the hotel, they ran into Tobirama Senju and the others who had come to find them.
After a brief exchange of greetings, Tobirama Senju got down to business.
"To thank you for your help, Mu Yue, the high-ranking officials of Konoha have decided to build a rock likeness of you next to the Hokage Rock. If you don't mind, Mu Yue, the construction plan should be ready soon."
Tobirama Senju said.
This was his idea. His goal was simple: to build a connection.
Mu Yue is so powerful; he surely doesn't lack money. So he decided to go for fame, helping Mu Yue leave his name in this world.
"There's no need to go to such trouble."
Muyue smiled and politely declined.
Not being Hokage yet having his likeness carved into the cliff felt odd to Muyue. If they were to build statues for all the transmigrators, that would be a bit more interesting.
"Can you spare us some time? We'd like to learn about the 'Shinobi Alliance'."
Tobirama Senju quickly brushed past the topic of the cliff statues and continued asking.
This was the main reason Tobirama Senju had come today.
Regarding the "Shinobi Alliance," Tobirama Senju knew very little; he only knew from the ninjas of the parallel world that such a thing existed, but the specifics were unknown.
Tobirama Senju could only conceive it based on its literal meaning and infer from the behavior of the ninjas from the parallel world.
The more effort he put into thinking about it, the more interested Tobirama Senju became, so he came to find Muyue.
"Sure."
Muyue nodded.
Even if Tobirama Senju hadn't come to him, Muyue would have found a way to promote the formation of a Shinobi Alliance in Naruto Uzumaki's world.
Kaguya Ōtsutsuki's meaning was very clear: more Ōtsutsuki would definitely come again.
For the shinobi world, this was both a disaster and an opportunity.
The disaster aspect naturally goes without saying—an interstellar civilization like the Ōtsutsuki clan likely views shinobi world people the same way shinobi world people view ordinary monkeys, destroying the entire world without a hint of mercy.
But this external pressure was also a rare opportunity for integration and development for the shinobi world, which had been in turmoil for over a thousand years.
No matter how strong the incoming Ōtsutsuki may be, an integrated shinobi world would certainly be stronger than each village fighting alone, and the chances of surviving the crisis would be greater.
To keep the atmosphere relaxed, Tobirama Senju did not set the meeting place in the conference room of the Hokage Building, but instead chose a tea house.
However, for a better experience, Tobirama Senju booked the entire tea house in advance and had the ANBU monitor the area to prevent any unexpected incidents.
"The Shinobi Alliance is actually easy to understand. It is a platform that connects the entire shinobi world, thereby mobilizing its resources and strength for better development."
Muyue explained simply.
"If only I had thought of this during the Five Kage Summit back then," Hashirama Senju lamented.
Hashirama Senju sighed.
During the first Five Kage Summit, the five great ninja villages also formed an alliance and established a non-aggression pact.
"The outcome wouldn't have changed. Even if such a platform existed, as soon as fundamental interests were involved, the major villages would never compromise, let alone allow that platform to mobilize resources and strength."
Tobirama Senju shook his head.
If those large villages were that easy to negotiate with, there wouldn't be so many wars.
"To establish the Shinobi Alliance smoothly, many conditions are required."
Muyue nodded and briefly recounted his preparations and experiences in establishing the Shinobi Alliance.
"First, before establishing the alliance, there must be some foundation of cooperation among the ninja villages."
Pushing forward something from scratch is very difficult; if there is a foundation, the difficulty becomes completely different.
"Next is a sufficiently qualified leader. This leader must possess absolute power, prestige that can convince others, and enough personal charisma."
The smooth establishment of the Shinobi Alliance was largely due to Muyue's personal efforts.
After all, he had only been transmigrated to the shinobi world for a few years, and time was not enough for Muyue to make everything perfect.
This approach had some drawbacks, but it was indeed the limit of what Muyue could achieve.
"Sufficient external pressure can also promote the formation of an alliance."
In this regard, Naruto Uzumaki's world actually had more advantages than Muyue's side.
Because Naruto Uzumaki's world had truly experienced the Infinite Tsukuyomi and had genuinely felt the power of the Six Paths level.
"It seems we can also establish a Shinobi Alliance over here."
Minato Namikaze thought for a moment and said.
On the basis of cooperation, the Allied Shinobi Forces had just been disbanded, and the five great ninja villages were still good buddies who had gone through life-and-death battles together.
In terms of leader selection, none of the Five Great Ninja Villages had a powerhouse comparable to Muyue, but it wasn't that there were no suitable candidates.
In Minato Namikaze's view, Hashirama Senju, renowned as the God of Shinobi, could meet Muyue's requirements.
"That's right. I suggest you convene the Five Kage Summit as soon as possible. The Five Great Ninja Villages must first unite."
Muyue nodded and said.
The Five Great Ninja Villages possessed the strongest ninja power in the ninja world. With them assembled, the Ninja World Alliance would be more than half successful.
"How did you deal with those daimyo, Muyue?"
Tobirama Senju thought for a moment and asked.
Muyue explained that the Ninja World Alliance could mobilize the resources and power of the entire ninja world, but ninja did not control all of its resources.
"Reform. The ninja world doesn't need nobles led by daimyo."
Muyue said bluntly.
If these daimyo nobles were born aristocrats like the Ōtsutsuki, possessing powerful bloodline-inherited abilities, Muyue might have had to consider things carefully—after all, Naruto had supernatural powers, and he couldn't mechanically apply his previous life's ideas.
But since neither the Senju nor the Uchiha called themselves nobles, these ordinary people acting noble? Muyue simply tossed them into the trash.
There were some who resisted during this process, but very few. Unless they had a death wish, they had no choice but to comply.
To prevent chaos during the reform, Muyue explained in detail how their side had carried out reforms and what issues needed attention.
A one-size-fits-all approach was definitely not acceptable; it would easily cause trouble.
Muyue spent over two full days recounting the various experiences of the Ninja World Alliance to Tobirama Senju and the others.
"We've troubled you greatly these past few days, Muyue. We haven't even given you time to sightsee. Why not stay a few more days?"
Tobirama Senju urged him to stay.
"I'll come again next time I get the chance."
Muyue smiled and politely declined.
He liked to follow his plans. Since he had decided to return in four days, he wouldn't extend his stay unless something major happened.
Seeing this, Tobirama Senju didn't say anything more.
After spending a few days with Muyue, he roughly understood what kind of person Muyue was.
Most of the time, Muyue was easy to get along with, just like his older brother, but he had his own principles on certain matters and wouldn't easily change his decisions.
In the evening, the time-travel team assembled at the ruins of Loulan.
Many Konoha ninja came to see them off, and all five generations of Konoha's Hokage were present.
"Younger brother Naruto, I'm about to go back. Could you call me 'big brother' just once?"
Obito looked at Naruto expectantly.
"Obito, little brother, come visit when you have time."
Naruto chuckled and replied.
"You should spend more time on training."
Kakashi admonished.
"It's not that bad; after all, I am the 'big Kakashi'."
The adult Kakashi gave a helpless smile.
Being urged to study by a younger version of himself—no one else had that experience.
"Teacher Gai, have a safe journey."
Tenten and others waved goodbye to Might Gai.
"Muyue, we are very grateful for your assistance. History will remember this."
The Hokage bowed in gratitude.
The other Konoha ninja also bowed one after another, thanking Muyue and his team for their selfless aid.
"Well then, everyone, goodbye."
Mu Yue waved his hand and gave Celebi a look.
Celebi enveloped everyone with its time-space power, then burst forth the absorbed dragon vein power all at once, a dazzling purple light covering everyone.
After the light faded, Mu Yue and the others did not disappear as Naruto and his group had expected.
"Hey, did we travel to some strange place? It doesn't feel any different."
Obito opened his eyes, looked at the vaguely familiar ruins around him, and wore a confused expression.
"Maybe we just didn't travel at all."
Kakashi said, looking at Mu Yue with a questioning expression.
"A time-space fluctuation just occurred, so the travel was disrupted."
Mu Yue explained with his eyes slightly narrowed.
According to Celebi, it was possible that someone else was using some method to travel through time and space, which caused this situation.
Actually, we could have forced our way through just now, but Celebi was worried something might go wrong and forcibly stopped it.
"Brother Mu Yue, are you okay? Can't we go back?"
Naruto asked with a worried expression.
"It's not a big problem. We can go back, but we'll have to stay a little longer."
Mu Yue shook his head and replied.
As long as we wait for Celebi to recover its power, we can travel again.
At the same time, two people fell from the sky above Konoha.
