200 Naruto: Reborn as Kakuzu

Genshī was a man who had survived since the Warring States Period. Alongside the First Mizukage, Byakuren, he had founded Kirigakure. His reputation in the village was one of great wisdom and experience. Having lived through the same era, there was no need for excessive pleasantries between him and Kakuzu.

Genshī lifted his teacup and took a slow sip, his gaze resting on Kakuzu. His heart was filled with complex emotions. Despite being of the same age, their conditions were worlds apa...

199 Naruto: Reborn as Kakuzu

Kakuzu had no interest in intercepting Kisame's final strike. To accomplish great things, the cooperation of others was essential.

"Kisame, your strength is invaluable to Ryūgakure. Join us," Kakuzu invited, his tone steady.

However, Kisame showed no change in expression. Resting Samehada on his shoulder, he chuckled.

"That's a pretty insincere invitation."

Kakuzu felt a twinge of frustration—Kisame wasn't wrong. If he wanted to recruit someone, there needed to be a...

166 Naruto: Starting with Infinite Chakra

The Ame-nin Jōnin trapped under the genjutsu's influence immediately froze, his expression going blank. He was already caught.

"Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!"

Uchiha Raiden exhaled a massive fireball, launching it straight at the immobilized Ame-nin.

With his body paralyzed by the illusion and no time for his comrades to intervene, he had no way to defend himself. The fireball engulfed him completely, reducing him to charred remains before he could even let out a ...

165 Naruto: Starting with Infinite Chakra

Barrier techniques are generally difficult to execute alone.

Take Jiraiya, for example. He could set up a barrier by himself, but it would require time to carefully construct, as it's impossible to instantly release the vast amount of chakra needed for such a technique—especially considering the sheer scale of his barrier.

Normally, barriers are created through coordinated efforts involving multiple shinobi. Very few would attempt to cast one solo due to the excessive chakra con...

307 Naruto: Stealing Attributes

Konohagakure.

Looking at the bustling scene before her, Hotaru's face lit up with excitement.

"Lord Mirai, is this where I'll be living from now on?"

She had grown up among the Tsuchigumo Clan, constantly on the run due to the secret technique she carried. For years, she had lived in fear, never knowing peace.

Meeting Utakata had made her life a little easier, but every day still felt like a gamble for survival.

But now...

She actually had ...

306 Naruto: Stealing Attributes

"Mirai?!"

"The Emperor of the Shinobi?!"

Hotaru was so stunned by Utakata's words that she could hardly speak.

She had only recently escaped from the Tsuchigumo clan and hadn't been following the events in the shinobi world closely. She hadn't been with Utakata for long either, so she wasn't aware of everything that had transpired.

But this... this was hard to believe. The young man standing before her, who looked even younger than Utakata-sensei, was being called "Emp...

124 Naruto: The Hidden Danzo

The corpse of the Fourth Kazekage was brought back to the Land of Wind to quell the turmoil.

As for the sole survivor of the mission—Pakura, the one who returned with the Kazekage's body—she had, through various maneuvers, become the undisputed hero of Sunagakure.

Among the villagers, she was the most highly favored candidate for the position of the Fifth Kazekage.

However, what the common villagers did not know was that within the upper echelons of Sunagakure, a pervasi...

123 Naruto: The Hidden Danzo

The "Golden Sands Realm" slowly dissipated...

Every trace of the battle, along with the corpses, was gradually swallowed by the golden sand, leaving no sign that a fight had ever taken place here.

"Let's go, Pakura... It's time to make further use of some resources," Danzo called out as he approached Pakura.

The Fourth Kazekage followed closely behind them, disappearing into the vast desert.

Five kilometers from the battlefield, deep within a Root stronghold—

I...

288 Naruto: Transmigrated as Obit

As Isshiki slowly collapsed, Obito chuckled, not taking the man's final words to heart.

Perhaps Isshiki still believed he had a chance to turn the tables, that one day he could resurrect himself from within Obito's body.

Maybe, in the Otsutsuki's perspective, as long as someone inherited his power, he was never truly "dead."

Or perhaps Isshiki had simply come to terms with life and death, seeing an honorable battle to the end as befitting of his noble status.

Obito cou...

287 Naruto: Transmigrated as Obit

Losing his vision, Isshiki remained unfazed.

"Daikokuten!"

Once again, he activated his dōjutsu, unleashing a barrage of Yin-Yang black rods indiscriminately around him.

Clang!

Madara deliberately deflected a black rod, creating a faint noise.

As expected, Isshiki was drawn to the sound, swiftly dashing in that direction.

Hiding in the mist, Obito's eyes gleamed with a predatory light.

Silently, he raised his Six Paths staff and thrust it fi...

286 Naruto: Transmigrated as Obit

[Rinnegan: Kamui—Only mobility is enhanced, strength remains unchanged. Unable to deal severe damage to Six Paths-level beings or higher. Otherwise, staring at someone to death would be ridiculous. It'd mean you could straight-up slaughter the entire Ōtsutsuki clan, haha.]

"Boom!"

The ground beneath Isshiki's feet exploded.

His figure vanished instantly from everyone's sight.

"Not good! Lord Tobirama, watch out!" Obito shouted in alarm.

Before...

285 Naruto: Transmigrated as Obit

Two newly summoned shadow clones of Tobirama barely even had a moment to react before they were instantly pierced through by black rods. With a soft "puff," they dissipated into smoke.

However, that brief moment was enough.

Tobirama managed to pull out the chakra-suppressing rods embedded in his body. Without hesitation, he used the Flying Thunder God Technique to retreat to a safe distance.

"That was close..." Tobirama thought to himself.

Obito and Madara simultaneous...

049 Volume III The Strongest Artist in Naruto

"First Hokage-sama! Second Hokage-sama!" Despair filled the cries of the remaining shinobi. No one had expected that even their two strongest warriors would fall.

"Damn it!"

"Are we really just supposed to stand here and wait for death?!" Tsunade slammed her fist into the ground, her face contorted in helpless fury.

"What about Deidara and Jiraiya?" she demanded.

"Deidara is still battling the Evil God, and Jiraiya-sama is locked in combat with Moryō. They likely don'...

048 Volume III The Strongest Artist in Naruto

"Hashirama, do you know how the Rinnegan is awakened?"

Faced with this question, Senju Hashirama was at a loss for an answer. After all, he had only been revived briefly through Edo Tensei twice and wasn't aware of many things that had transpired.

Seeing the confusion on his old friend's face, Madara couldn't help but feel a certain satisfaction in explaining—much like the smug joy of showing off in front of a friend and watching their expression shift from bewilderment to shock...

047 Volume III The Strongest Artist in Naruto

What is the principle behind the Mutual Multiplication Explosive Tags?

It continuously summons new explosive tags through the existing ones, exponentially increasing their numbers to create a massive, sustained explosion.

C4 Pursuers are entirely based on this concept. Each Pursuer is covered in hundreds of tiny holes, each containing a summoning seal capable of summoning new clay Pursuers.

One becomes a hundred, a hundred becomes ten thousand, and ten thousand become a mill...

046 Volume III The Strongest Artist in Naruto

With a deafening explosion, the Asura Path, which had been sliced in half by the Evil God, suddenly came back to life. Though its lower half was destroyed, its upper half remained operational and continued its assault.

The two massive cannons mounted on its shoulders fired a pair of gigantic clay shells, catching the Evil God off guard. With a thunderous blast, the shells detonated upon impact.

Each of these enormous clay shells was the size of a truck and crafted from perfected e...

122 Naruto: The Hidden Danzo

Just as Chiyo rampaged through the "Golden Sand Realm"...

Ebizo suddenly emerged from the sands, appearing in front of her.

"Sister? What are you doing here?" he asked, looking at her in surprise.

"Your tracking abilities are quite impressive. In terms of overall strength, you might even surpass your sister, Chiyo," a voice said as Rasa's figure slowly emerged.

"Who are you?"

Both siblings turned their gaze toward Danzo, who stood behind Rasa, their eyes filled w...

121 Naruto: The Hidden Danzo

Early in the morning, news of the public trial spread across the village.

At the same time, rumors swept through Sunagakure.

The verdict would be decided by the envoy from the Land of Wind…

And that envoy turned out to be none other than Sunagakure's hero—Pakura.

Stories of a noble prince and a fallen kunoichi began circulating, adding a touch of intrigue to the event and slightly easing the village's tensions.

A large crowd of civilians gathered at the centr...

305 Naruto: Stealing Attributes

The ground was cracked and scarred, the aftermath of a terrifying shockwave.

Watching the man descend from the sky, both Utakata and Hotaru were utterly stunned.

How could anyone fall from such a height and remain completely unscathed?

Seeing their wary expressions, Mirai's lips curled into a faint smile.

"Let's negotiate something."

"How about you hand over the Six-Tails willingly?"

At Mirai's demand, Utakata's expression darkened.

Asking him to surr...

304 Naruto: Stealing Attributes

The Uchiha Clan.

In the courtyard, Mirai walked leisurely toward Tsunade, Kurenai Yuhi, and the others.

Seeing the group before him, dressed in luxurious and elegant attire, Mirai nodded in satisfaction.

Clothes make the man, after all.

Now that they had shed their plain shinobi outfits, Tsunade and the others looked even more stunning than before.

Keeping so many beautiful women in his home—just looking at them every day was a pleasure in itse...

164 Naruto: Starting with Infinite Chakra

Ryūgen was skilled in swordsmanship, particularly in wielding dual blades.

The moment Jiraiya saw the second blade in Ryūgen's hands, he immediately recognized it as a poisoned weapon.

The leader of Amegakure, Hanzō of the Salamander, was a master of poison techniques—arguably the greatest poison user in the entire shinobi world. Even Sunagakure's Chiyo, renowned for her expertise in poisons, couldn't compare to him.

As Hanzō's personal bodyguard, it would be unthinkab...

163 Naruto: Starting with Infinite Chakra

The spiraling water flow generated immense thrust upon impact, creating a powerful surge that crashed forward at incredible speed. As Jiraiya struck, the water split into multiple streams, sharp like blades.

Jiraiya remained composed, swinging his sword forward. A torrent of lightning erupted from the blade, piercing through the rushing water with ease. The attack didn't lose momentum, continuing straight for Ryūgen.

"Waterfall Drop."

Ryūgen quickly formed hand seals. A cu...

198 Naruto: Reborn as Kakuzu

Although Earth Release techniques barely managed to counter Kisame's Water Release, his chakra reserves were simply too vast—perhaps even greater than Jiraiya's. He was a troublesome opponent. Defeating him might require using the power of these eyes.

Nagato closed his Rinnegan as battle strategies quickly formed in his mind. However, just then—

"Idiot!"

Nagato was forced to open his eyes and look behind him.

"Kakuzu-sama, I sincerely apologize. With my current cha...

197 Naruto: Reborn as Kakuzu

"Kakuzu, you are not of Kirigakure, yet you act with impunity here, slaughtering as you please. We are outraged beyond measure. I challenge you to a hunt at Crescent Lake—where we shall stake the honor of our village in battle."

—Biwa Jūzō.

Holding the challenge letter in his hand, Kakuzu found it rather amusing. He and Nagato had been here for months now, never once pausing in their campaign of destruction. The Mizukage, Mufu, likely understood that Kakuzu had come for him,...

196 Naruto: Reborn as Kakuzu

This very ninja, who once condemned Sakumo Hatake for prioritizing his comrades over the mission, now found himself facing a life-or-death situation. His limbs had been severed by Kumogakure's shinobi, and true death loomed before him. Yet, it was Sakumo Hatake who saved him.

At this moment, his emotions were complex and conflicted. Perhaps the people of Konohagakure still debated whether Sakumo should have chosen the mission or his comrades. However, those engaged in such discussions h...

195 Naruto: Reborn as Kakuzu

Dark clouds loomed overhead, casting a shadow over the land. The Kumo forces—ten thousand strong—had completely surrounded Konoha's camp, trapping its defenders in a desperate situation.

Inside the camp, two figures moved swiftly toward the command tent. They were Yamanaka Inoichi and Aburame Shibi. Without hesitation, they entered, finding Danzo seated at the head of the room.

"Danzo-sama, the Kumo forces number at least ten thousand, while we have fewer than a thousand," Ino...

162 Naruto: Starting with Infinite Chakra

The elite jōnin and jōnin under Ryūgen's command had no choice but to engage the enemy. If they didn't, Jiraiya and his forces could easily dismantle the formations surrounding the walls. Once that happened, defending Tetsuishi Town would become exponentially more difficult. Their only option was to meet the enemy head-on.

"Use the mechanical cannons! Focus fire on those four hills—we need to destroy them as quickly as possible!"

Even as Ryūgen and his forces moved out, a j�...

161 Naruto: Starting with Infinite Chakra

Jiraiya led the Konoha shinobi forward but halted when they were still some distance away from Tetsuishi Town.

They were close enough now that the Ame shinobi stationed atop the town's walls could see them clearly.

"Their morale isn't bad at all," Jiraiya noted with a slight smile as he observed the Rain shinobi standing resolutely on the fortress walls.

The high spirits of the defenders were not unexpected. After all, they were the ones being invaded. It was only natural fo...

303 Naruto: Stealing Attributes

"So this is Konohagakure?"

"Wow... It's so beautiful..."

Temari couldn't help but exclaim in amazement as she took in the bustling streets of the village.

She had thought that, after all the reforms and development, Sunagakure had become quite prosperous. But compared to what lay before her now, the difference was like night and day.

Kankurō rubbed his hands together, eyes gleaming with excitement.

He must have hit the jackpot—who would have thought he'd actua...

302 Naruto: Stealing Attributes

After confirming the general locations of Son Gokū and Kaku, Uchiha Mirai felt more at ease.

In time, he would personally travel the ninja world to track down the two Jinchūriki.

With his sensory abilities, combined with the guidance of the Tailed Beast inside him, finding Rōshi and Utakata wouldn't be too difficult.

Instead of leaving Sunagakure immediately, Mirai chose to stay for about a month.

On one hand, it was a good opportunity to strengthen his bond with Pa...
