041 Volume III The Strongest Artist in Naruto

No one could deny that Gamabunta's Water Release was powerful, but Rasa controlled too much sand.

The massive water bullets crashed down, only to vanish instantly—like raindrops swallowed by the desert.

"Oi! Boss Toad! Your Water Release isn't working!" Naruto shouted as the sea of sand continued surging toward them.

Gamabunta, clearly irritated by Naruto's yelling, snapped back, "Shut up! Who told you I was good at everything?!"

"The enemy's this strong, of course I...

040 Volume III The Strongest Artist in Naruto

Battlefield in the Land of Hot Water.

"Kakuzu, it looks like Deidara's creations are even more impressive than you!" Hidan exclaimed.

"Hidan, shut up!" The old man snapped, clearly annoyed.

The battlefield in the Land of Hot Water was also facing the reanimated forces, including the Second Mizukage and the Second Tsuchikage. Despite having Namikaze Minato and Sarutobi Hiruzen on their side, they were still at a disadvantage, heavily outnumbered.

Howeve...

039 Volume III The Strongest Artist in Naruto

"It's you, brat!"

"But now that we're all mixed together, your ability is useless." The Fourth Raikage still remembered Deidara vividly, but in the next moment, he dismissed his concerns.

Not only was he in the Edo Tensei state, but he had also successfully blended in with his own forces. Did Deidara really think he would dare to blow up his own allies?

"Your reasoning isn't entirely wrong, but you've clearly underestimated the fact that I improve."

"I'm not the same a...

038 Volume III The Strongest Artist in Naruto

"So it's you, Hashirama." Madara crossed his arms again, putting on a disinterested facade. "I never expected us to meet again."

"Madara, you're still alive?!" Senju Hashirama was utterly shocked. The Madara before him didn't appear to be an Edo Tensei summon but a living, breathing person.

"Tch!"

Hearing those words, Madara felt both annoyed and embarrassed. How could he possibly tell Hashirama that he had been defeated and forced into servitude?

"Enough talk, Hashira...

114 Naruto: The Hidden Danzo

Danzo's sudden departure left Pakura in a foul mood.

Especially since she had to see that woman, Nonō Yakushi, every day—it made her even more irritated.

Tap… tap… tap…

Following Nonō, who was leading the way ahead, Pakura fought the urge to turn her into charcoal.

"You seem to have a strong hostility toward me," Nonō said, stopping in her tracks and turning around with a gentle smile.

"Hmph…" Pakura let out a cold snort, brushing past her a...

113 Naruto: The Hidden Danzo

"Konohagakure has rotted, but the Root will endure. New branches will break through the wasteland and deadwood, growing stronger and more lush… This is the path of the Root. Honor will ultimately belong to you all…"

Danzo stood above, addressing the dense crowd of Root members kneeling before him. Their leader had returned.

"Itachi, you don't look well. Are the concerns about the Uchiha clan weighing on you?"

Uchiha Itachi knelt below, his once-youthful demeanor now full...

297 Naruto: Stealing Attributes

Gaara's usually cold and brooding gaze was now filled with anticipation.

From the moment he was born, no one had ever been able to hurt him.

Any attempt to do so would be blocked by the cursed sand that always surrounded him, acting on its own to shield him from harm.

Everyone said it was the power of the monster inside him.

Gaara hated this power. He wanted to be normal.

Every time he saw others bleed, cry out in pain, or writhe in agony, he felt an overwhelming...

296 Naruto: Stealing Attributes

The news of the survivors of the Land of Rōran relocating to Konohagakure quickly spread throughout the entire shinobi world.

Many people envied these Rōran refugees.

After all...

Given the current circumstances, obtaining residency in Konohagakure was no easy feat.

Even those who had initially chosen to leave midway began making their way to Konoha, hoping to settle there just like Salle and Yako.

Unfortunately, most of them weren't even qualified to enter the...

156 Naruto: Starting with Infinite Chakra

If they couldn't sustain the war through battle spoils, then a large-scale war would be a heavy burden on Konohagakure.

The village leadership naturally wanted to avoid such an outcome.

"Captain, what should we do with him?" Yuhi Mitsune asked.

"Since we can't get any valuable information out of him, and his identity is nothing special, there's no reason to keep him. The Rain ninja won't come to rescue him either. Just end it quickly," Jiraiya replied.

Yuhi Mitsune nod...

155 Naruto: Starting with Infinite Chakra

"It seems Elder Danzō must have something urgent to attend to," Jiraiya said with a nod.

Danzō had left without leaving any message. Jiraiya was fully aware of that. Once the higher-ups in Konoha learned of his disappearance, even if they sent out search teams, they would find no trace.

The constant rain in the Land of Rain would wash away any signs of their battle in time. By then, all clues would have vanished, and Danzō's disappearance would become a mystery among the shinob...

190 Naruto: Reborn as Kakuzu

Salamander Hanzō's gaze toward Kakuzu was filled with utter fury.

"Kakuzu, I've heard the rumors about you, but I never expected to meet you in person here today. Speak—what business do you have in my Land of Rain?"

"What do you think?" Kakuzu replied indifferently.

Hanzō's expression grew even darker. The entire shinobi world had turned against the Land of Dragons recently—news of this had spread so widely that even commoners were aware of it. As the ruler of the Land...

189 Naruto: Reborn as Kakuzu

"The Land of Earth is demanding that we return the body of 'Gari' from the Second Shinobi World War."

"The Land of Lightning is requesting the release of Yotsuki Akira from our prison."

"The Land of Moon wants an explanation for the disturbance you caused last time, Lord Kakuzu."

"The Land of Birds has issued a unilateral diplomatic notice, banning its citizens from entering our Dragon Country."

In just a few days, an overwhelming stack of official documents had been s...

188 Naruto: Reborn as Kakuzu

"Is Tsunade planning to stay in there with her brother for the rest of her life?" Sakumo Hatake asked with a hint of helplessness. It wasn't that he lacked patience, but he hadn't expected Tsunade to keep her younger brother, Senju Nawaki, in that room, talking for an entire day. Who knew how much longer they'd have to wait?

Kakuzu merely raised an eyebrow without commenting. Only Ni, standing nearby, smiled and offered an explanation.

"Don't worry, Kakuzu-sama. From what I know a...

187 Naruto: Reborn as Kakuzu

Everything in the world follows its own natural order. In this brutal shinobi world, to emphasize the destructive power of ninjutsu, there seems to be an unspoken rule: "Smoke, but no injuries."

Yet, why was one of the last remaining member of the Senju clan so utterly pathetic? He barely ran two steps before being blown to pieces right in front of his teacher, Orochimaru.

"What an unlucky brat," Kakuzu muttered as Heisei Rokuno entered the room, dragging an unconscious, bound man...

154 Naruto: Starting with Infinite Chakra

Jiraiya, realizing he couldn't infiltrate Tetsuishi Town for intel, decided to capture one of the patrol captains and interrogate him back at the base.

The captains of these patrol units were all elite Chunin, with no Jonin leading the teams. This demonstrated the caution of Amegakure's forces. Their decision to keep Jonin within the town was likely to prevent a decapitation strike by the Fire Country's shinobi. After all, Amegakure's elite couldn't compare to those from the Fire Countr...

153 Naruto: Starting with Infinite Chakra

Jiraiya performed the Summoning Jutsu, calling forth a small yellowish-brown toad, no bigger than the palm of his hand.

"Get me close to that fortress," Jiraiya whispered.

The toad nodded, releasing a wave of chakra that enveloped Jiraiya before pulling him into its body.

Inside the toad, Jiraiya found himself in a dark, soundless space. Yet, he could still sense everything happening outside with perfect clarity.

This toad, named Toad Sky, was similar to the Gourd Toad...

295 Naruto: Stealing Attributes

"Three months?"

Hearing Tsunade and the others' words, Mirai was momentarily stunned.

So that meant...

The Dragon Vein hadn't sent him back to the exact moment he left. Instead, he had arrived three months into the future.

"It seems that relying on the Dragon Vein for time travel isn't exactly reliable."

Mirai muttered to himself.

He had originally considered using the Dragon Vein's power to traverse time, but now it was clear that there were too many uncer...

294 Naruto: Stealing Attributes

Sara looked at Mirai with a worried expression, but he simply smiled confidently.

"I'll be fine."

"I just need you to help guide the power of the Dragon Vein."

Seeing how determined he was, Sara had no choice but to nod in agreement.

The moment she did, Mirai reached out and pulled the bone he had left at the sealing center.

The barrier shattered.

In the next second, an overwhelming and violent force erupted from underground.

"Sara!"

"I know." 2025-03-01 06:02:01 +0000 UTC View Post

112 Naruto: The Hidden Danzo

In a courtyard near the entrance of Konoha, the sound of children's laughter echoed.

"Slow down! Don't run so fast... Grandpa can't keep up!"

A small figure darted forward, glancing back occasionally.

"Grandpa! Grandpa!"

Maruboshi Kosuke caught the mischievous Naruto in his arms, a doting smile spreading across his face as he lifted him high into the air.

...

Watching the happy scene of the grandparent and grandchild from afar, Danzo couldn't help but allow...

111 Naruto: The Hidden Danzo

Deep within the headquarters of the Root division in Konoha, a hidden chamber sat in darkness.

On a bed surrounded by various instruments lay a handsome young man of about seventeen or eighteen, asleep. Despite his unconscious state, he radiated life. His delicate, flawless skin would make even women envious.

His long hair looked recently trimmed, though uneven in places. Slowly, he opened his eyes. At first, there was confusion in his gaze, but it quickly gave way to excitement.<...

110 Naruto: The Hidden Danzo

The fallout from Danzo's disruption of the Konoha council meeting had shaken the village leadership. The Third Hokage and the two elders saw their authority among the clans diminish significantly. Soon after, someone leaked details of the meeting to the wider village.

The leak had a massive impact among the ninja ranks. Many shinobi rushed to the Hokage's office, pledging their lives to Konoha's protection but refusing to endure such dishonor.

Initially, the Third Hokage and the e...

109 Naruto: The Hidden Danzo

The clone was placed next to Danzō.

"If reincarnation fails, proceed with the plan..." Danzō slowly opened his eyes, speaking calmly.

"Sir…" A trace of confusion laced the voice.

All preparations had been completed.

With swift hand seals, Danzō's soul began to radiate outward, connecting with the nearby clone.

It was hard to say how much time passed. Danzō found himself in a vast, dark space. He could see his own hand as he reached out.

With a mere th...

037 Volume III The Strongest Artist in Naruto

Morning Peacock!

A barrage of fiery punches burst forth like the fanned tail of a peacock. Even Madara couldn't help but glance at the dazzling display.

Not bad!

But that's all.

Susanoo extended an arm and swatted at Might Guy with a casual motion, as if snuffing out a tiny flame. The attack was effortlessly neutralized.

But even as Susanoo's massive form loomed over him, Guy showed no fear. Instead, he charged f...

036 Volume III The Strongest Artist in Naruto

"So, these are the members of Akatsuki?"

"They're nothing special." Standing atop a high slope, arms crossed, Madara gazed down at the battlefield below.

"Indeed, Lord Madara."

"Shall we begin the attack now?" White Zetsu asked.

Madara raised his right hand and made a dismissive gesture.

"I don't need any of you. I can handle this alone."

The humiliation he suffered at the hands of Moryo still lingered. He was seething, and now he needed some weaklings to r...

035 Volume III The Strongest Artist in Naruto

"Hey! Seriously? How long has it even been? Why am I getting brought back by Edo Tensei again?" Senju Hashirama complained.

Beside him, Senju Tobirama looked even more irritated. Being repeatedly controlled by his own forbidden jutsu was beyond frustrating for him.

"Honored former Hokage, the situation is dire. We had no choice but to call upon your assistance once again," Jiraiya said apologetically.

"And what is it this time?" Tobirama asked sternly, his expression making ...

034 Volume III The Strongest Artist in Naruto

"Edo Tensei!"

With Kabuto's hand seals, coffins began rising from the ground one after another. Each one contained a legendary warrior who had once made their mark on the ninja world.

"The resurrection of Konoha's previous Hokage failed? Did something happen after I left?" Kabuto frowned in confusion.

Especially the First Hokage—that was an incredibly powerful asset. However, if they couldn't be summoned, there was nothing he could do.

"So this is what you've been up...

276 Naruto: Transmigrated as Obit

Above the Hokage Building, Obito held the Hokage's ceremonial hat, striking a series of dramatic and stylish poses amid the exclamations of the crowd.

And the moment he placed the hat on his head, the Hokage succession ceremony officially concluded.

At that instant, a familiar system notification echoed in his mind.

[ Ding! Congratulations to the host for becoming the Fifth Hokage! ]

[ Reward received: 2 God-Tier Technique Packs! ]

275 Naruto: Transmigrated as Obit

Konohagakure.

The area in front of the Hokage Building was packed with people—civilians, shinobi, and even some visitors from other lands.

The streets nearby were completely blocked off by the massive crowd, shoulder to shoulder, all eager to witness the event.

Yet, despite the density of the crowd, more people were still desperately trying to squeeze their way in.

"It's so rare to see three Hokage in the same frame!"
