Naruto Time Control

Chapter 260: Senpō Mokuton: Shin Sūsenju

Country of waterfalls, Takigakure.

This country had a rather peculiar terrain, consisting of many wide but low mountains, and most of the settlements are located on the plains created in the mountains.

There are a lot of villages located behind the waterfalls, and Takigakure is one of them, it is located behind a huge waterfall.

At this time.

The waterfall was completely destroyed, and in its place a large gorge was formed, apparently this was due to the explosion of a Bijudama.

Streams of water flowed down the sides of the gorge, and in the center was the ruined Takigakure.

Here the Takigakure ninja could be seen gathered, but the symbols on their front guards were already different.

They still had the symbol of their home village on them, but now there was a large symbol of Konoha next to them, the two symbols were connected by a strip that signified unification.

All the other ninja from the villages absorbed by Konoha wore roughly the same forehead guards to show which village the ninja originally belonged to.

This was also done to stabilize the situation and demonstrate Konoha's dominance.

The younger generation of ninja would be trained at the Konoha Ninja Academy and, after graduating, would wear the usual Konoha forehead protector, without the symbol of their home village.

"It's terrible..."

Kurenai stood at the edge of the canyon and looked in shock at Takigakure in ruins below.

Looking at the situation, we can assume that Takigakure lost not only more than half of its ninja, but most likely many civilians and children died.

A Bijuu is a double-edged sword for most ninja villages.

Good control will bring great power and bad control will bring great hidden danger.

"Why did they even want to get a Bijuu?"

Rin, who was standing next to him, whispered softly.

Why is she here?

The reason for this is extremely simple.

I couldn't just watch Kurenai and Yeruashi embark on a journey together?

What if they have children after they return?

"No!"

Yeruashi appeared next to Rin and shook his head, saying, "At that time, Takigakure actually had the necessary qualifications and could control the Bijuu. Then in their ranks was a very strong ninja named Kakuzu, who survived Senju Hashirama's assassination attempt."

"Unfortunately, after returning to the village, he was punished for failing the mission to kill the First Hokage. As a result, he became a renegade and killed a large number of ninja during his escape, leading to a significant weakening of the village"

In the past few years, during the conquest of small ninja villages and countries, Konoha gathered quite a bit of information about them and after combining it with his own knowledge, Yeruashi began to understand the history of most of the small ninja villages quite well.

Kurenai looked at Yeruashi with surprise and said, "Kill the First Hokage?"

"Well..."

Yeruashi smiled and said, "He tried to kill me too, but failed again, heh-heh-heh."

Rin looked at Yeruashi in shock and said, "He tried to kill you?! But if this ninja lived in the days of the First Hokage, his age should be..."

"Ah, he had some minor means to prolong life, some hearts..."

Yeruashi casually explained Kakuzu's abilities in a few words and jumped, landing in front of the destroyed Takigakure.

The ninjas already detected the presence of Yeruashi, Rin and Kurenai. Seeing Yeruashi fall, many ninja took a deep breath and immediately approached him.

"Hokage-sama..."

The looks of the ninjas were still quite complex.

Initially, they belonged to a full-fledged ninja village, but now, in fact, it was still a village affiliated with Konoha. Although it seems that they joined voluntarily, in fact, they had no chance to avoid the fate of being absorbed by Konoha.

But that wasn't bad either.

They will no longer have to worry about external enemies, because Konoha is undoubtedly the strongest of the Great Ninja Villages.

Even...

The image of the five Great Ninja Villages is already starting to become a relic of the past.

According to a large number of ninja, the image of the world has already changed completely, now Konoha is at the top, surpassing the other Great Ninja Villages.

"Where is Nanabi?"

Yeruashi looked at the Takigakure ninja and without hesitation immediately went to work.

Hisen, the current head of Takigakure, or rather the Commander of the Konoha branch in the Cascade Country, approached Yeruashi and reported, "I can determine Nanabi's position, but Hokage-sama? Are you going to act alone with three people?"

Hisen was very tense.

This is the Fifth Hokage!

He put an end to the Third Ninja World War and is known as the Ninja God!

But a person who has such a high profile reputation in the Ninja world was too young and did not radiate any signs of power, is he really as strong as the rumors say?

"Yes, since you can track Nanabi, then just lead us to him."

Yeruashi looked at Hisen and nodded calmly.

Hisen calmed his emotions, performed a series of hand seals and closed his eyes, feeling Nanabi's position, after a while, he opened his eyes and said, "Follow me, Hokage-sama!"

Whoosh!

He quickly ran in a certain direction.

Yeruashi looked at Hisen who was running away, and the next moment, his figure became blurry and disappeared, Kurenai and Rin were also following them.

The four ran quickly through the green mountains.

About half a day later.

"It's been quite some time since my last encounter with Chmei.

Kurama's voice rang in Yeruashi's head.

The fox could already sense Nanabi's chakra, and Yeruashi felt it even earlier.

Whoosh, whoosh!!!!

Hisen, Yeruashi and the others stopped at the edge of the gorge.

Hisen nervously looked deep into the gorge and spoke to Yeruashi, a cold sweat broke out on his forehead as he said, "Hokage-sama, Nanabi is there!"

He felt a strong sense of fear as he felt Nanabi's chakra nearby.

His mind recalled the image of the Bijuu storming the village earlier, destroying half of the village directly with a single Bijudama, going through the entire canyon, a scene like that was terrifying to think about, and now that the Bijuu was under the canyon, it made him instinctively want to flee the place.

When he looked at Yeruashi, he forced himself to calm down.

The Fifth Hokage, the so-called Ninja God, as well as Senju Hashirama, who in the past divided the Bijuu among the ninja villages, should be able to suppress Nanabi.

"Kurenai, Rin, step aside!"

Yeruashi took a step forward, stepping over the edge of the gorge, at the same time his body was wrapped in a golden cover.

Rin and Kurenai looked at each other and calmly stepped back, while Hisen quickly moved even further away.

Upon reaching the edge of the gorge, Yeruashi calmly raised his hands and folded a series of seals, a large amount of chakra gushed from his body and a glow shone in his eyes.

"Sage Art of the Wood Element: Several Thousands of True Hands!"

Boom!!!

Accompanied by a monstrous roar and the earth shuddering, a wooden figure, much larger even than Full Susanoo, quickly appeared at the edge of the gorge, with a large number of wooden palms stacked in three rows around him in a semicircle.

Then.

Under Hisen's surprised and incredulous gaze, several wooden arms began to rapidly elongate and head toward the gorge.

There was a rumbling and roaring from the gorge, and then wooden hands pulled Nanabi out of the gorge and lifted him into the air.

Nanabi struggled with all his might, trying to shake those wooden hands, but all to no avail.

He felt again that fear and helplessness from the past that he had experienced when facing Senju Hashirama.

"Senju Hashirama!!!"

Chmei let out a cry of indignation and helplessness.
