Chapter 149: “When the Shinobi World War Erupts, Kumogakure Will Be the First to Fall!” — First Meeting with Mei Terumī

"I am Yagyu, an elite jōnin of Konohagakure. On behalf of the Land of Fire and the Hidden Leaf Village, I've come to request an audience with the Raikage of the Land of Lightning. Here is my credential."

"Please wait a moment, dear envoy."

After leaving Iwagakure, Yagyu swiftly arrived at Kumogakure. Just as he had in the Land of Iron and Iwagakure, he presented his credential and introduced himself. The gate guards hurried off to notify their superiors.

"Yagyu-kun, long ti...

Chapter 148: In This Era, There’s No Second Uchiha Madara!

"Pleased to meet you, Lord Yagyu."

"Likewise, Lord Mifune—I've heard much about you."

In the reception room of the Shogunate, Mifune and Yagyu sat on floor cushions, greeting one another.

"This is the letter Lady Hokage asked me to deliver personally into your hands."

Wasting no time, Yagyu produced a letter and handed it, with both hands, to Mifune.

"You've come a long way, Lord Yagyu. Thank you for your trouble."

Mifune spoke courteously, though his exp...

Chapter 147: Jiraiya’s Death, Tsunade Convenes the Five Kage Summit

That day, Konoha held a memorial service for the Elder Council and the four major clans. After all, losing over two thousand people was no small matter. Aside from wartime, not even the Nine-Tails' Rampage or the Konoha Crush had claimed so many lives at once.

Moreover, these casualties included every member of the Konoha Elder Council and their clans—among them the Sarutobi clan, home of the Third Hokage. Ethically and practically, Konoha had to hold a memorial service for them. Even...

Chapter 146: Obito’s Identity Exposed, Jiraiya’s Discovery

Swish, swish, swish…

Within a dimly lit space, seven vivid beams of colored light flashed, swiftly forming seven distinct thought-forms—each possessing a unique physique and appearance.

"Uchiha Itachi is dead. He was killed by his younger brother, Uchiha Sasuke."

Before Deidara could liven up the atmosphere, Tendō Pain spoke bluntly:

"I've summoned you all to redistribute the teams."

"What? Uchiha Itachi died?!"

The first to react was surprisingly Deid...

Chapter 145: Ending the Fated Rivalry of Naruto and Sasuke! The First Meeting of Uchiha Hikari and Hanabi—Two Future Goddesses of the Boruto Era

"Sasuke, Naruto and the others should be waiting for you. I won't walk you over to them," Yagyu teased Sasuke with a smile as they stepped out of the Hokage's office. "No need to be shy—just apologize to them. I'm sure they'll understand."

"Tch… S-shut up," Sasuke huffed, turning away as if he didn't want Yagyu to see his awkward, flushed face.

His sulky, prideful look was practically identical to Hikari's.

"Saaasukeee—!"

Before Yagyu and Hikari could say goodbye...

Chapter 144: Sasuke Returns; Uchiha Hikari Joins Konoha

"Yagyu, you came to see me!"

After leaving the Hokage's office, Yagyu did not return immediately to Tanzaku Town. Instead, he appeared in an open field lit by a campfire. Seeing him show up, Sakura—who was roasting fish for dinner with Naruto and Kakashi—immediately broke into a delighted smile and hurled herself into his arms.

"Ah… I suddenly missed you, so I came to check on you."

Holding Sakura close as she nuzzled against him, Yagyu shot a grin at Kakashi and Narut...

Chapter 143: It Was Done by “Hundred Faces” and the Masked Man—Implanting Double-Eyed Kotoamatsukami

Although Yagyu and his group were fighting a sky-shattering battle in the illusion world, Konoha itself didn't show the slightest change in reality.

Yet when Yagyu converted the deaths of Konoha F4's clans and all Root members—including Danzo Shimura, Homura Mitokado, and Koharu Utatane—into reality and then lifted the illusion…

An unbelievable sight appeared throughout Konoha.

In everyone else's eyes, the clansmen of Konoha F4 had simply gone blank-faced for a moment....

Chapter 142: A Kunai Pierces Susanoo, the Fall of Konoha F4’s Entire Clans, the Curtain Closes

"Wind Release: Vacuum Great Sphere!"

Just as Yagyu finished off Hiruzen Sarutobi—erasing his soul from existence—a massive air cannon whooshed in from a distance.

So fast was this blast that except for Yagyu, neither Uchiha Sasuke nor Uchiha Hikari could dodge in time using Body Flicker.

Boom!

Yet the air cannon never struck the trio. It exploded not far from them, transforming into a violent gale. Blocking the blast was none other than Hikari's Susanoo.

Watc...

Chapter 141: Yagyu’s Exclusive Eye Technique – Yomi. A Dojutsu With Only One Name Is Just That Awesome

"Gulp…"

Raising their heads to gaze at the full-body Susanoo looming like a colossal mountain, the four elders of Konoha couldn't help but swallow nervously. Their pupils shrank to the extreme.

Even Hiruzen Sarutobi—who, by using a White Zetsu clone as a sacrifice, had an immortal body and infinite chakra and could thus exhibit strength close to his prime—was no exception.

With a trembling voice, Koharu Utatane said, "Th-this… is this Susanoo as well? Can such power ...

Chapter 140: The Konoha F4 Join Forces, Complete Susanoo

"Danzo, Koharu…"

Seeing his old comrades, Danzo Shimura and Homura Mitokado, Hiruzen Sarutobi felt a surge of relief and quickly said, "You arrived just in time. Help me seal myself before I cause more harm!"

"Hmph… I told you long ago not to let Orochimaru go because of your sentiment as his teacher," Danzo sneered, slowly unwrapping the bandage over his right eye. "Now look at the mess—it's not only taken your life, but it's brought ruin upon our clans."

Clearly, bot...

Chapter 139: Since You’re Ruthless Internally, Let’s Wipe Out Your Entire Clan

"This place… it's the clan grounds?" Sarutobi Hiruzen, newly summoned from his coffin, quickly realized he was back in the world of the living, recognizing the Sarutobi clan grounds at a glance.

"Lord Hiruzen!"

"Clan Leader!"

"Grandpa!"

The Sarutobi clan members were overwhelmed with emotion, each calling out to him with different titles.

Among them, a child's voice was the most distinct.

Seeing the night transform into day, Konohamaru, who had stepped ou...

Chapter 138: Eight Thousand Spears: Marked Tsukuyomi, Using Sarutobi Hiruzen to Help Wipe Out Clans

"Oniichan, where are we headed next?"

Having regained a family member, Uchiha Hikari's attachment to Yagyu was now sky-high. She was a girl who lacked love, desperate for connection, and eagerly trying to find topics to chat about with Yagyu.

Sensing her feelings, Yagyu gently held Hikari's hand, his fingers interlocked with hers, easing her fears.

"We're heading out to get you some revenge, Hikari," Yagyu replied with a smile.

"Revenge?"

Hikari tilted her head, ...

Chapter 137: Sasuke Wants to Dig a Hole to Hide, ‘Whitebeard’ Edward Yagyu

"Sixty-four years ago, the leader of the Senju clan, Senju Hashirama, and the leader of the Uchiha clan, Uchiha Madara, joined forces to establish Konoha. They brought in the Hyuga clan, which was second only to them, along with the Sarutobi and Shimura clans, to build a military base that would train ninja for the Land of Fire, ruling the country alongside the daimyo. The former had absolute control over Konoha and was titled Hokage, while the latter managed the country's politics, supplying...

Chapter 136: Finding an Ally, Uchiha Hikari

"This direction... it doesn't seem to lead to Konoha, does it?"

In the Land of Fire, Yagyu and Uchiha Sasuke are walking slowly.

Although it's been three years since he last visited the Land of Fire, Sasuke quickly realizes they aren't heading toward Konoha.

"No, we're not going to Konoha. We're heading to a sealed location to find you an ally."

Holding a scroll in his hands, Yagyu scans its contents, smiling cryptically. "You're going to like this ally a lot."

"...

Chapter 135: Yagyu: "They Wiped Out Your Entire Clan; Just Go Wipe Out Theirs"

After Uchiha Itachi's death, Uchiha Sasuke, exhausted of chakra, also loses consciousness. When he wakes, he finds himself in a wooden cabin, lying on a bed and staring blankly at the ceiling. There's no sense of satisfaction from killing Itachi or avenging his parents and clan.

Though Itachi's last words were faint, Sasuke still heard them.

What did those words mean? Wasn't Itachi trying to take his eyes and become the second Madara? Why did he die smiling, rather than with regre...

Chapter 134: The Curtain Falls on the Struggle Between Yagyu and Uchiha Obito

"Is that all the power your eyes have?"

Staring at Uchiha Sasuke, who had just activated his three-tomoe Sharingan, Uchiha Itachi sat on a stone chair, his demeanor lofty as he looked down at him. "It seems you still haven't obtained the same eyes as mine," he said calmly.

"Itachi, I have a question for you!"

Ignoring Itachi's taunt, Sasuke sought to confirm what Uchiha Yusuke had once told him. "You killed our father, our mother, and all of our clan but spared me. Was it be...

Chapter 133: Yagyu, Please Guide Me Through the Rest of My Life! The Accelerated Battle Between Brothers

"Sealing Technique: Phantom Nine-Dragon Seal!"

In the dark cave, a strange, discordant shout echoed.

Why did it feel so out of place?

The answer was simple: on the fingers of the Gedo Statue, there were only eight thought projections. Consequently, only eight chakra dragons emerged, overwhelming the unconscious Yugito Nii, beginning to extract the Two-Tails, Matatabi, from her.

"When Konoha's Wood Release ninja appeared out of nowhere, if he hadn't revealed his positio...

Chapter 132: Samui's Despair, Yagyu Descends Like a God, the Rasenshuriken Series

Seeing Yugito blown away by the intense heat wave, Samui felt a pang of worry, yet she wasn't about to let this golden opportunity slip by. As Hiruko wielded the Uchiha fan and activated the Uchiha Repel, Samui quickly used the Body Flicker Technique to get behind him, ready to unleash a powerful lightning-infused slash.

At that moment, Hiruko turned and looked at her. His eyes had transformed into the blood-red, three-tomoe Sharingan.

The Sharingan!

Samui's eyes widened wit...

Chapter 131: Hinata, Let Me Introduce You to a New Friend, Uchiha Milkshake

"They used the Edo Tensei on my great-grandfather? Was it Orochimaru?"

When Yagyu and his team returned to Konoha and reported to Tsunade, she was less shocked by the forbidden life-for-life resurrection technique Chiyo had used and more by the fact that her great-grandfather had been resurrected with the Edo Tensei technique.

At the mention of the Edo Tensei, her first thought was of Orochimaru. She could hardly believe it. "But didn't Sarutobi-sensei take his arms? And wasn't th...

Chapter 130: I Need to Hurry, While I'm Still Strong Enough

"Sorry, I'm late."

After both battles had ended and everyone regrouped, Yagyu appeared beside Hinata using the Flying Thunder God technique, apologizing as he noticed Gaara's lifeless body on the ground.

"Damn it, we were still too late!"

Naruto, kneeling on the ground, pounded his fist against the earth in frustration, tears falling from his eyes. "Gaara had just become Kazekage… He was finally accepted by everyone…"

Seeing Naruto's raw emotions, the members of bo...

Chapter 129: Four Red Yang Formation, Hinata and Sakura’s Show of Strength, The Incident Concludes

"To be seeing the world of the living again…"

As Hashirama Senju stepped out of the coffin, he sighed, exasperated. "It's that technique of Tobirama's again, isn't it? I kept telling him not to develop jutsus so recklessly… Now, it's causing trouble for those in the future."

"Well, don't be so hard on your brother. Your cells, First Hokage, are a rare find themselves—I had to go to great lengths just to get a vial of Hashirama cells," Hundred Faces teased, casting a sly look...

Chapter 128: Hundred Faces Takes Action, Edo Tensei Hashirama Senju

After placing the Puppet Curse on Samui and sealing her memory of it, Yagyu also cast the Puppet Curse on Omoi, who was subdued by Shino, and the unconscious Karui, sealing their memories as well.

"Alright, I agree!"

When Samui came to her senses, she saw Yagyu nodding his head.

For some reason, she felt something strange but couldn't quite put her finger on it.

Unfortunately, Samui hadn't paid attention to the time, nor did she have a pocket watch on her. Otherwise, s...

Chapter 127: Yagyu's Original Target and the Puppet Curse

"You're... Hinata Hyuga!"

Samui hadn't expected to meet anyone outside of Konoha's Fifth Hokage who could rival her own assets, especially someone so young.

As she carefully observed Hinata, who wasn't wearing the standard green flak jacket but bore the prominent Byakugan and the diamond-shaped seal on her forehead, Samui's expression changed drastically.

What alarmed her wasn't that Hinata was the heir of the Hyuga main family, nor that she was a Konoha jōnin of the same r...

Chapter 126: Hinata and Samui: So Big!

"Finally, this child's dream has come true."

Standing in front of a mass of purple chakra with Yagyu in the wilderness, Kurenai Yuhi looked at the cocoon-like chakra and smiled warmly.

Yagyu also praised, "Yakumo's strength now surpasses many jōnin. Once she expands her knowledge, she'll become just as skilled a genjutsu master as you, Kurenai-sensei."

"Don't flatter me," Kurenai responded, though she couldn't help but place one hand on her hip and smile proudly. "I know my...

Chapter 125: Kurama Yakumo in Shock, A World of Differences

The ninja world was at peace, but that only applied to the five great ninja villages.

In the eyes of the smaller countries, there was no such thing as a peaceful era—war could break out at any moment.

Although the five great ninja villages viewed the wars in these small countries as child's play, for the small nations, war was a matter of life and death.

Losing a war could mean being annexed by a neighboring country.

As a result, the small countries near the five gre...

Chapter 124: A Major Reshuffle in the Ninja World, Destroying the Other Villages

In Hiruko's castle.

In the brightly lit laboratory, a spatial vortex suddenly appeared out of thin air.

A distorted figure emerged from the vortex, quickly taking the form of Uchiha Obito.

"You're pretty fast," said Hundred Faces, who was experimenting with a White Zetsu clone. He teased, "You're even more enthusiastic than Pain, the leader of the Akatsuki. You guys catching the tailed beasts... Is there another purpose behind it?"

"It's simply to bring peace sooner an...

Chapter 123: Konoha Year 64, The Sneaky Little Sister-in-Law, Akatsuki’s Full Gathering

"Gentle Fist Art: Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms!"

"Two palms, four palms, eight palms, sixteen palms..."

This was an abandoned training field.

The ground, trees, flowers, even the sky and clouds had all become like a glitchy, low-frame-rate picture.

In this world of illusion, a little girl in a kimono was launching a fierce attack against a boy who was more than thirty centimeters taller than her.

Her small hands and slender fingers created afterimages as they ...

Chapter 122: The Fastest Victory, Spot-on Judgments

Rumble...

As Shion destroyed Moryo's physical body, the Ghost Legion turned to dust and vanished. Suddenly, the volcanic cave where the temple was located began to shake violently.

The ground inside started to collapse, with countless rocks falling into the lava lake, causing the molten rock to bubble and churn.

The mountain's tremors grew stronger, and the massive landmass quaked violently.

Finally, with a deafening explosion, a massive pillar of lava broke t...

Chapter 121: The Knockoff Six Paths Family

"Yagyu-kun…"

Yagyu had just landed from mid-air when the ice sword in his hand turned to ice flakes and disappeared. His entire body emanated waves of blue energy as he walked toward Shion, exuding an intense sense of pressure.

However, to Shion, this presence only brought her a deep sense of security.

As she opened her mouth, ready to speak, Yagyu suddenly rolled up his sleeve, extended his forearm toward her, and said, "Shion, bite down on my arm—make sure to bite hard...

Chapter 120: Sword Slashes the Soul, Yagyu’s Unique Eye Technique – Yomi

Staring deeply at the four corpses on the ground, Yagyu continued to move swiftly toward the Land of Swamps with Shion.

After they left a certain distance, one of the female corpses suddenly dissolved into a puddle of liquid, stealthily slipping away in a manner similar to the Hydration Technique of the Hozuki clan.

"Ya… Yagyu-kun, just now…?"

Clinging tightly to Yagyu's waist as she lay on his back, Shion still hadn't fully processed what had just happened. Even with Ya...
