RoU Chapter 156: Misconceptions and Mismatched Intentions
🕑 Added 2024-01-02 19:43:26 +0000 UTCThis is Wood Release without a doubt.
Tsunade was almost in tears of joy. God knows how long the Senju clan had waited for another member of the clan to awaken that Kekkei Genkai.
The reason why her younger brother, Nawaki, was so valued was because he possessed the most concentrated lineage of the First Hokage, making him the most likely candidate to awaken the Wood Release.
Unfortunately, Nawaki ultimately died under mysterious circumstances. Even though Orochimaru was nearby, he miraculously fell into the enemy's trap and only left behind a body without internal organs.
And now...
Finally, a member of the Senju clan has awakened the Wood Release. How could Tsunade not be overjoyed.
And unlike Nawaki, Hikari is not even one year old yet, but she has awakened the Wood Release...
This shows that she has great talent, even the First Hokage did not awaken the Wood Release so soon.
Wood Release is different from the Sharingan. Although it is also the most famous ninjutsu of the Senju clan, most members of the Senju clan only possess a strong physical body and do not have any Wood Release abilities.
Only the first Hokage had this Kekkei Genkai, and thanks to it he was able to suppress the entire ninja world.
And now...
Tsunade hesitated for a moment. Although someone with the Wood Release could make many people, and even some villages, focus attention on her daughter. But after reflecting she still decided to announce this matter decisively.
Almost instantly, the entire Konoha erupted.
The Sarutobi clan, Hyuga clan, Ino-Shika-Cho trio...
All the clan heads rushed over, staring with wide eyes at the little baby playing with tree branches.
"An heir to Shodai-sama has appeared! This girl will become the future hope of Konoha." Countless elders who were loyal to the First Hokage were immediately filled with enthusiasm.
Although due to recent special circumstances, the prestige of Lord First Hokage has slightly declined and the name of Uchiha Madara has become even more renowned.
But in the eyes of the older generation, the First Hokage will always be the only one worthy of their loyalty and all Konoha ninja should remember his great kindness.
Other ninjas were also overjoyed, without any sense of hesitation, but instead relieved.
"Being able to awaken the Wood Release at such a young age... with this level of talent, as long as she grows, we will no longer have to fear the Uchiha clan."
This situation somewhat calmed the fears of many ninjas. Although Natsuo's behavior seemed normal, his extremism was only evident in his insistence on 'reviving Uchiha'.
But how many years has it been since Uchiha Madara's death? There are still many people who remember the terror of Uchiha Madara. Nor have they forgotten Uchiha Madara's uncompromising attitude...
Although Natsuo did not show too much hostility, he still showed that he was not so tolerant when he killed a member of the Shimura clan in front of the Hokage, or when he retaliated against Kumogakure after the attempted kidnapping of his children.
But which clan leader wouldn't worry about him becoming the second Uchiha Madara, someone no one can contend with?
No, it would be even more tragic than when Uchiha Madara was in Konoha. Because unlike then, Konoha no longer has a First Hokage to balance Uchiha Madara...
But now that a member of the Senju clan who has awakened the Wood Release at such a young age has appeared, how could they not feel relieved?
Even Nara Shikaku couldn't help but subtly complain to Tsunade. "Tsunade-sama, what were you thinking? How could you casually expose the fact that Hikari can use Wood Release? What if someone with ill intentions targets her?"
Well, those 'ill-intentioned people' are not external forces of the village, but rather refer specifically to Natsuo.
In his eyes, there is a possibility that Natsuo might harm Hikari. After all, if she died before she grew up, then there would be no one to balance his power in the world...
However, Tsunade was left speechless, as she thought: 'Natsuo harming Hikari? With his obsession with his children, I doubt he would do anything to his own daughter.'
But looking at the genuine concern of the ninjas present, she could only choose to announce in advance: "I will marry Uchiha Natsuo soon, plus Hikari is actually the result of the union between Natsuo and me during my travels."
However, many did not believe these words. What kind of reputation did Natsuo have back then? What kind of status and strength did Tsunade have back then?
Even Jiraiya, who had pursued her for many years, was completely ignored by her. Would a woman like her really care about someone like Natsuo?
Not to mention that even if Natsuo were to reveal his current strength, Tsunade might not agree.
Everyone unanimously believed that Tsunade-sama must be worried that Natsuo would harm Hikari, so she sacrificed herself and married him in exchange for him not harming Hikari.
Sigh... Tsunade-sama sacrificed too much for Hikari.
Tsunade: "..."
Why don't you listen to what I tell you? But she couldn't bring herself to say that she and Natsuo had gotten together by accident because of her medicine, resulting in Hikari.
She could only repeatedly say: "Natsuo is handsome and considerate. Although he's a bit too 'loving,' he treats women well. He pursued me for a long time before I reluctantly agreed to be with him."
Well, she could only make up a story that distorts the facts.
When Natsuo heard this news, he was dumbfounded. Could it be that the so-called chase referred to the story of him and Ameyuri chasing her every day seeking treatment for Ameyuri?
However, what Natsuo didn't expect was that not only the high-level officials of Konoha didn't believe Tsunade's words, but also many of Natsuo's wives didn't believe her either.
Yukino, Guren, and Uzumaki Yoko were women with a 'Uchiha clan always comes first' mentality. They even hinted in various ways, saying: "Natsuo, take action when necessary. Don't wait for the enemy to grow stronger, that would be troublesome."
Even Karin stepped forward and said: "Natsuo-sama, if you are unable to take action, why not let me do it for you?"
"Anyway, I'm not an Uchiha by blood. Even if I make a mistake, it won't affect the Uchiha clan...."
"Although this mission is very dangerous, once executed, I will definitely become a missing-nin, and may even be killed on the spot."
"But for you, I'm willing to do anything!"
Then came the crazy implication: "Natsuo-sama, I am certainly willing to sacrifice myself, but can you accept me before you leave, as an act of farewell?"
"Although I am still young, I believe that the physical qualities of the Uzumaki clan can already withstand some hardships!"
Natsuo sometimes wondered if it was right that he decided to train Karin as his future wife, the degree of obsession he showed in the Naruto Series didn't seem so creepy until he experienced it himself.
In the end, he had to bring out Karin, the stalker, to explain to his wives that Hikari was actually his daughter, but that due to the circumstances of how she was conceived, she had been raised by Tsunade.
However, that Hikari would awaken the Wood Release so soon surprised Natsuo. He didn't think the special connection he had formed with her would strengthen her so quickly.
Hikari wasn't even a year old and hadn't received any Chakra training, but she could already use the Wood Release.
Although she could only produce a small twig, it was still Wood Release.
Truly, the fact that she is so far his child with the highest potential evaluation is not in vain.
As for Hikari awakening the Wood Release, apart from the initial surprise Natsuo didn't pay much attention to it; although Tsunade thought it was all due to her lineage from the Senju clan. In reality, Natsuo knew that it was mainly because he had strengthened his bloodline quite a bit with the rewards of the system, this added to the special connection he recently formed with Hikari. It would be strange if Hikari did not awaken the Wood Release and I even hope that he would awaken some special abilities like his other children, the only thing he did not expect is that she would do it so soon.
And although Raion, Natsuo's eldest son, who is only five years old, has not shown a talent as strong as Hikari's, but the talents that he and his brothers are awakening are amazing...
As Natsuo continues to form that special connection that passively strengthens his children, when his children grow up, they will probably surprise the entire world.
And at the same time...
Kumogakure suffered a devastating defeat. The news of Natsuo defeating the Raikage and capturing the Eight Tails has already spread throughout the ninja world.
Upon hearing this news, the leaders of all the ninja villages were taken aback.
This is just like the Uchiha Madara of the past.
Especially for Kumogakure, the morale of the Kumo Shinobi, who were originally very high-spirited, was almost completely shattered by this defeat.
Nii Yugito the Jinchuriki of the Two-Tails had no choice but to step forward and lead the remaining village forces to block Jiraiya's attack.
In front of Jiraiya, Nii Yugito, who were also perfect Jinchuriki, could only retreat step by step.
In this Great War, Kumogakure no longer had the qualifications to participate.
While Nii Yugito resisted Jiraiya's attack and bought time, she also sent representatives to Konoha at lightning speed, hoping to sign a peace agreement.
It's not a big deal to pay some compensation, but at least they wanted to redeem Killer Bee and the Raikage.
Iwagakure, on the other hand, was also in a difficult situation.
Because Konoha had a manpower shortage, they had not been able to send many ninjas to resist Iwagakure's large army.
This made the Iwagakure forces led by Onoki feel like they were in an empty land, continuously attacking and capturing territories, with an offensive drive no less ferocious than that of Kumogakure.
But as soon as the news of Kumogakure's defeat came, the Iwa Shinobi were stunned.
"Damn, Uchiha Natsuo is actually this strong?"
"No wonder Tsuchikage-sama has always been worried about the power of the Uchiha clan. It turns out it's really terrifying!"
"What the hell are we going to do? What if Natsuo comes over to attack us? What should we do?"
Although Iwagakure does not have such prominent shinobi, they still have the Four-Tails Jinchuriki, Roshi, the Five-Tails Jinchuriki, Han and Tsuchikage Onoki who are in the front line. This alignment is as strong as Kumogakure's AB combination.
However, they don't think they can stop Natsuo. Suddenly, everyone panicked, and morale plummeted...
But at this moment, Onoki, stood up.
"There is nothing to fear from Uchiha Natsuo!" Onoki yelled angrily. "No matter how strong he is, he's just a person. There's no way he wouldn't have been hurt after defeating Kumogakure!"
"Also, even if he wasn't hurt, can his technique resist my Dust Release?"
"What's there to be afraid of!"
Tsuchikage, who was anxious and worried about Uchiha's power before the battle, now stood up like a pillar. With his not-so-broad shoulders, he carried fearless courage. His inspiring words reassured the Iwa Shinobi.
Fear and courage are sometimes not contradictory words. For the sake of the village, let alone Natsuo, even if Uchiha Madara were in front of him, Onoki would dare to fight with all his might. But courage is courage, and Onoki also recognizes reality.
Under his leadership, Iwagakure's offensive instantly slowed down and they began to build defensive fortifications like Sunagakure.
However, they still did not choose to surrender to Konoha. As one of the Five Great Shinobi Villages, Iwagakure could not afford to lose its prestige like that.
On the other hand, the ninjas of Sunagakure were somewhat panicked.
Although it was already an undisputed fact that the Fourth Kazekage was the strongest Kazekage, being the 'strongest Kazekage' does not mean being the 'strongest ninja'.
Whether or not Rasa can withstand Natsuo is really worrying. But Rasa remained as calm as ever.
"What are you afraid of!" He shouted sternly, "Don't talk about Natsuo not showing up yet, even if he does, I'll handle it!"
"Everything remains the same! Continue with the construction!"
Rasa thought: 'Panicked? What's the use of panicking! Anyway, when Natsuo comes, I will immediately send my own daughter to ensure the safety of Sunagakure... In this battle, I don't intend to fight to the death with Konoha. I just want to gain some advantages.'
Relying on the well-built fortifications, Rasa felt that as long as Natsuo didn't make a move, Sunagakure could at least ensure a decent retreat even if they couldn't take a piece of Konoha's meat.
Actually, with a few surprise attacks, Sunagakure achieved quite good results at a small cost and gained a considerable amount of resources.
Although these resources may not mean much to the wealthy village of Konoha, in the eyes of poor Sunagakure they were already worth fighting for in a ninja war.
Listening to Rasa's words, the Suna Shinobi settled down one after another. Then they looked at Rasa with admiration in their eyes.
"Truly worthy of the Kazekage!"
"That's right! So what if Natsuo comes!"
"Maybe the Kazekage will capture him directly and establish himself as the strongest in the ninja world!"
"Yes! Although I can summon a chakra giant, the Kazekage's Golden Sand can bury it!"
"That's right! That's how it is!"
They then began to discuss how Rasa would use his Sand Gold to defeat Natsuo once he arrived.
Rasa: "..."
But there is no way, thanks to Rasa's wise leadership, Sunagakure has achieved great results with minimal sacrifices, which is an unprecedented victory in Sunagakure's history.
Such a leader naturally receives the greatest admiration from the ninjas.
Even though Rasa has explained it several times, people continue to come up with theories of how Rasa would defeat Natsuo, which angers Rasa. So the only thing he could do was go see Temari. After all, his own safety and that of Sunagakure depends on her.
Other Suna Shinobi, seeing this, look at Rasa with eyes full of admiration.
"As expected of the Kazekage, he is not afraid even after hearing Natsuo's achievements... This is the fearless heart of a strong person, right?"
...
Konohagakure, residence of the Uchiha Clan.
Natsuo looks at the timid little girl in front of him and scratches his head.
"So, Neji, you just brought her in like this?"
Neji calmly nods. "Yes, Natsuo-sama, this is the order of our Hyuga Clan leader, Hiashi-sama."
'Did he lose his mind or something?' Natsuo thinks to himself, then turns to look at the little girl in front of him.
Hinata has dark blue hair with two long strands on the sides framing her face and straight bangs, white skin, and maintains a constant shy expression.
Meanwhile Hinata also looks at Natsuo with her white eyes typical of the Hyuga clan, revealing shyness, fear and joy.
"I finally see you again..."
