The Hokage, having traveled here, of course he'd unify the ninja world!

Chapter 387 The Chance of Resurrection

Orochimaru's laboratory.

Minato had already sent Hiruzen Sarutobi's body back beforehand, and it's still in Daimyo's residence.

To confirm something, Chiyo first had Orochimaru resurrect Hiruzen Sarutobi using Edo Tensei.

"The Impure World Reincarnation Technique!"

Orochimaru was already very familiar with this technique and used it casually.

We've caught a lot of spies lately, and there are plenty of sacrifices to be made.

Amidst the fluttering talismans, Hiruzen Sarutobi was resurrected in his impure world form.

However, Orochimaru controlled Hiruzen Sarutobi, preventing him from regaining his senses.

"Didn't Danzo's root organization disappear? Where did you find the Bull-Headed Heavenly King Plan from?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi gave a wooden reply: "Shigaraki Tanuki, the main researcher of the Ox-Headed Heavenly King, survived after going out."

"He continued to oversee the Bull King Project."

Qian Yao pondered for a moment: "When did you complete the Bull-Headed Heavenly King Plan?"

"When they encountered the attack by Hiruko and Sunagakure."

Qianyao asked, somewhat puzzled, "Why was it completed during their attack? Is it related to them?"

"Due to technological limitations, it would have required the sacrifice of three thousand people to carve the Bull-Headed Heavenly King's image onto his body."

Qian Yao raised an eyebrow.

"So you deliberately lured other forces to attack your team?"

"The original plan was to wait for your Uchiha to attack, but Hiruko and Sunagakure were unexpected."

Chiyo realized he had underestimated Hiruzen Sarutobi.

The reason he wasn't in a hurry to attack was simply because Nagato could easily overwhelm them.

He didn't need to send his Uchiha clan members at all.

Moreover, Nagato also has a well-established reason for this.

That's about changing the Nine-Tails' Jinchūriki.

However, these things are not the main point now. The main point is that the Otsutsuki clan appeared ahead of schedule.

Although in the original timeline, Jigen has not yet recovered.

But this time he took away 40% of the chakra of two Sarutobi clan members, namely Nue and half of the Nine-Tails.

Unpredictable dangers may arise afterward.

Black Zetsu also attacked Nagato. Black Zetsu was even able to control Madara's eyes, so it seems that Black Zetsu cannot get the Rinnegan back.

"Orochimaru, based on previous examples, how many people could Nagato revive at once?"

After pondering for a moment, Orochimaru said, "Resurrecting the others is fine, but as for Kushina, I doubt it will work."

Chiyo naturally understood Orochimaru's meaning.

As an outstanding member of the Uzumaki clan, Kushina possessed an extremely strong vitality.

Nagato is easily killed by being sucked in.

Qianyao pondered for a moment and then clicked on his Bond Star.

"I should have a way."

……

black market.

Information about the Akatsuki's swift victory over the Hiruzen Sarutobi clan has already been posted on the black market.

Because the battle happened very quickly, Pain activated Shinra Tensei in a very short time.

Most intelligence personnel's intelligence is somewhat outdated.

Or perhaps it's a matter of the intelligence personnel's courage.

What many people saw was that the Sarutobi clan was wiped out.

Later, a giant spirit beast appeared inside.

Then Nagato's Chibaku Tensei pulled it up, resulting in another massive explosion.

No one dared to go online to check anymore.

But at least one thing is true: the leader of the Akatsuki organization possessed a secret technique that could wipe out a village in one strike.

This level of dominance put all the ninja villages on high alert.

Such a terrifying secret technique, if used in any village...

The village was wiped out in one fell swoop.

Most people who come to the black market conceal their physical appearance.

In the corner, Kakuzu was looking at a report.

Compared to other bounty hunters, Kakuzu has been in the black market for longer, so he naturally knows which intelligence is relatively reliable.

As he looked around, he pondered, realizing that the organization and the Uchiha clan had a close relationship.

Even the fact that Hiruzen Sarutobi stole the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki this time was actually a scheme orchestrated by the Akatsuki and Chiyo.

Because Xiao Nan had already issued a statement at this point.

This explains that Hiruzen Sarutobi was a traitor who colluded with them to replace the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki.

Pain even revealed that many caravans from the Land of Fire had been swindled by Hiruzen Sarutobi.

Pain's demand this time was for the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, but Hiruzen Sarutobi refused to give him either money or a Jinchuriki.

That's how it escalated into the final great battle.

But only Kakuzu knew that all of this was a lie to the demons.

Because there were no Uchiha or Akatsuki members chasing after Kakuzu.

At that moment, a blond-haired man leaned right next to Kakuzu.

Doing this kind of thing on the black market is very dangerous.

Kakuzu tensed up completely: "Who!?"

A slightly younger voice spoke up: "I want to join your organization, hmm!"

……

Konoha Village.

Commercial street.

A tall, muscular man with bluish skin was leading a gentle-looking woman out of a restaurant.

"Brother Kisame, this place is really good. Let's come again next time."

Kyoko Kurita reached out and grasped Kisame's hand; her palm appeared small and delicate in Kisame's large hand.

"If you like it, we'll come again next time."

He was once lost and felt that everything in the world was an illusion. He struggled forward, burdened by the mission of killing his comrades.

Only Kyoko could see that his life was very hard.

Kisame gently held the hand of the only person who cared about him, as if he were holding the whole world in his hands.

"Kyoko, do you like it here?" Kisame's voice wasn't pleasant, but his tone was very gentle.

Kyoko turned her head, her long hair brushing against Kisame's arm, her gentle laughter carrying a hint of tenderness:

"I'll love anywhere as long as Kisame is here."

Thump, thump.

Kisame's heart suddenly started beating faster.

Suddenly, Xingzi pulled her hand away and ran to the side of the street.

"Kisame-nii, look how cute this is!"

Anzu picked up a black puppy keychain and her eyes crinkled with laughter.

Kisame bared his sharp fangs: "Hmm, she is very cute."

The elderly woman who owned the shop next door saw customers coming in and quickly greeted them:

"Esteemed guests, this is a set; two pieces make a pair."

She picked up another white puppy keychain and placed it next to Kyoko's hand.

The two puppy keychains immediately stuck together.

Kisame's eyes lit up.

"I'll take both of them."

Before Kisame could speak, Kyoko had already paid the money with a look of excitement on her face.

"Brother Kisame, this is for you."

A slight blush rose on Kyoko's face as she handed the black puppy keychain to Kisame.

Kisame took the keychain, unable to suppress the smirk on his face.

"You should always wear it with you." Anzu shook the white puppy keychain in her hand.

"I will always carry it with me."

Kisame carefully put away the charm, intending to hang it on Samehada when he got back.

"I'm really sorry to bother you, but there's something I need you to do, Kisame."

A voice came, and Kisame and Kyoko turned their heads together with some joy.

"Lord Qian Yao."

Chiyo looked at the two of them with a smile. Kisame hadn't even brought his Samehada skin, and Kyoko was also dressed in casual clothes.

The two of them forgot all their past troubles and went out to enjoy life.

Qianyao had saved their lives, and upon hearing his words, Kisame replied, "Lord Qianyao, please give your orders."

"Go and send me a message."
