Chapter 161 You are... the Third Hokage?
Damn Konoha, I will destroy you! Nine-Tails, is there really no way to break the seal within you?
Naruto calmed himself down; he had lost count of how many times he had asked Kurama this question.
......
However, all that answered him was the silence of the Nine-Tails; nothing!
"Great Uchiha Tsukuyomi, supreme god of destruction, please destroy this filthy world!"
At the edge of the desolate realm, several figures knelt on the ground, kowtowing and worshipping the dark silence.
In their eyes, Uchiha Tsukuyomi is a god, a demon god who came to destroy this evil world.
The world has become corrupted, so a world-destroying demon god has appeared to cleanse it.
Yes, they are a bunch of lunatics, cultists. While others are filled with fear, they have begun to worship Uchiha Tsuki in their despair, and they have justified their actions by stripping Uchiha Tsuki of his humanity and turning him into a god of destruction.
This is quite normal in this world; after all, the worship of certain powerful and destructive things has existed since ancient times.
Before Kaguya Otsutsuki descended, the world was filled with gods; even a roadside stone could be worshipped and transformed into a deity.
These madmen want to destroy this world, to completely annihilate this sinful world, including themselves; they are utter madmen.
In the past, there was no such sudden emergence of madmen with self-destructive and world-ending tendencies as they do now. Even if they did appear, they would have been suppressed. But things are different now!
"I heard that the Jinchūriki of Konoha have turned evil!"
"Perhaps, that Jinchūriki is someone we can try to win over—"
"However, it will be difficult to enter Konoha and bring the Jinchuriki out. Even though he has become extremely weak, Konoha is still one of the strongest ninja villages."
Recently, Konoha has been busy. Since the establishment of the Shinobi Alliance, a large number of Konoha ninjas have been sent out to gather refugees from the Land of Fire and take them to the border of the Land of Fire so that Isshiki Otsutsuki can identify them and find out if any of them are chosen ones.
Since Konoha took over, the crime rate and mortality rate of these refugees have started to decrease. The Konoha ninjas cannot allow these people to kill each other. What if there is a chosen one among the dead?
Lord Jigen once said that whether a chosen one can save the world is not absolute. Only through guidance and nurturing can a chosen one become a true chosen one and save the world. In this process, the chosen one may die.
The future he envisioned included one where the chosen one would save the world, and another where the chosen one would never appear.
Now, in order to find the Child of Destiny, no ninja village dares to capture savages for human experimentation. If they accidentally kill the Child of Destiny, they're doomed.
Only those individuals identified by Cixian as not being chosen by destiny were their sole targets for human experimentation.
In this process, Konoha purged various bandits and criminals who oppressed ordinary people during this chaotic time, no longer disregarding the lives of civilians in the Land of Fire as before, and even actively capturing civilians for experiments.
In the process of continuously transporting civilians, the Konoha ninjas finally...
"Hehe, hahaha!!!! Come on, come on! Hahaha, let us become one, let us unite as one, hahaha!!!"
A maniacal laugh rang out, and a gigantic head floated in the air, frantically slaughtering and devouring souls.
The civilians present died rapidly at a visible pace; their screams, cries of despair, and attempts to flee were all futile in the face of their fate.
"What is this?"
"No, wait, this monster looks so much like the Third Hokage!"
"Masaka, could it be—."
"Could this thing actually be the Third Hokage? No, that's impossible! The Third Hokage isn't a monster! And he doesn't look this terrifying and bizarre! This isn't something normal at all!"
The Konoha ninja stared in shock at the head floating in the air, indiscriminately killing and devouring. The face was almost identical to Hiruzen Sarutobi's.
At this moment, someone recalled that the Third Hokage's head had disappeared, completely vanished under Naruto's blast. Even the Impure World Reincarnation technique failed to revive him. At that time, the villagers speculated that the Third Hokage might have already given up. That attack was like the last straw that broke the camel's back, causing Hiruzen Sarutobi's soul to completely dissipate.
After all, they had successfully summoned other ninjas who had been killed by Naruto's Tailed Beast Ball, which meant that the Tailed Beast Ball did not have the ability to destroy souls. No one could be sure whether a soul that was only left with a head, which was no longer complete, could continue to exist.
Everyone thought that the souls of the three generations of masters had completely dissipated, but now it seems that this is not the case!
"Hehe, food, soul—"
Just then, Hiruzen Sarutobi suddenly looked at them, his eyes revealing an incomparably greedy and hungry gaze. Clearly, the souls of the strong were more attractive to them than the souls of ordinary people.
"Third Hokage, it's us! We are Konoha ninjas, what's wrong with you?"
The boy staring at Hiruzen Sarutobi felt a chill run down his spine. He no longer had time to care about the civilians who had been devoured by this head. All he wanted to know was what was going on with this monster that looked exactly like the Third Hokage. If it really was the Third Hokage, why had it turned into such a deformed and twisted monster?
"What's wrong? Miyo? -- I am -- I am --"
Upon hearing the keyword, Hiruzen Sarutobi suddenly stopped, as if he had fallen into a daze, and past memories surfaced in his mind!
No way, really no way, is this really their Third Hokage?
No, what happened to the Third Hokage? How did he end up like this?
The ninjas exchanged glances as they watched Hiruzen Sarutobi's actions.
"Lord Third Hokage, what happened to you?"
"Stop! You can't kill anymore! You really can't kill anymore! Every person you kill could be a chosen one who can save the world! Come back to Konoha with us! The Second Hokage has been resurrected. No matter what happened to you, the Second Hokage can definitely handle it!"
