No matter how beautiful a piece of music is, it will eventually come to an end;
No matter how fierce the battle is, it will eventually end.

At this time, all the people from the major ninja clans had evacuated the Uchiha clan's territory, and only the Uchiha clan was left on the scene.

The Uchiha family is the most powerful family in the ninja world!
After the night of genocide, there were only about 500 people left.

Without outsiders present, the Uchiha, who were filled with murderous intent and crazy eyes, took off all their disguises and began to search for the bodies of their family members and clan members in the ruined clan land.

Endless grief permeated the entire Uchiha clan.

No abuse!

No whining!
No pain!

There is only silent silence.

With his scarlet Sharingan open and expressionless face, he searched out the dead clan members one by one from the rooms and ruins like a wandering ghost, and placed them on the family's open space.

·····
On the cliff,

"No chance!"

"Let's go!" Uchiha Obito, wearing an orange one-eyed mask, turned his gaze away from the Uchiha clan's territory in the distance.

"Aren't you going to assassinate that old man Setsuna?" Bai Jue asked.

Obito said: "This strongest Hokage is too weak. He didn't even push Setsuna to his limit. We don't have a chance to fish in troubled waters."

"Besides, we still don't know the pupil technique of Setsuna's other eye. There is no need to take risks. The Third Hokage and Uchiha Setsuna will still have a battle."

"We don't have to rush."

"Hehe! Let's go then!" Bai Zetsu laughed, and immediately slowly sank into the ground, ready to leave.

When Obito was about to use the Space-Time Eye Technique to take Itachi away with him, Itachi refused and said, "You go first!"

"Sasuke is my reserve eye. He's still in the ninja school. I need to go warn Danzo."

Obito stared at Itachi for a while, then he gave a dry laugh, and was sucked into the vortex that appeared in the void, disappearing completely.

·····
“It’s wonderful!”

"Uchiha!"

“Hehehehehehe!!”

The feminine man with long black hair and purple eyeshadow stuck out his long tongue and licked the corner of his mouth. He was the poison in the pornographic, gambling and drug-related duo with Jiraiya and Tsunade - Orochimaru.

After realizing that he did not have the confidence to absolutely defeat Uchiha Setsuna, Danzo immediately notified Orochimaru through the summoning beast and asked him to come to Konoha for support.

Of course, the support is paid.

Orochimaru has very complicated feelings towards Konoha.

When Naruto was taking the Chunin Exam, Orochimaru formulated the [Konoha Collapse Plan].

Although he seems to be full of hatred towards Konoha and Sarutobi Hiruzen, in fact, that is his deepest love for Konoha and his teacher.

Sarutobi Hiruzen has become the cancer of Konoha, and his existence has stopped the windmill of Konoha from turning.

In the original plot: White Fang committed suicide, Senju disappeared, Rope Tree died, Kato Dan died in battle, Tsunade left the village, Orochimaru defected, Uchiha clan was exterminated...

In essence, Konoha has been ruined by the Third Generation.

If another war breaks out with other villages, Konoha will be pushed into an abyss of no return.

Konoha can continue in the future!

It's all because of Naruto!

Because Naruto is the protagonist! He is the child of destiny!
If Naruto and Sasuke had not forcibly extended Konoha's life, Konoha would essentially have been destroyed.

The third generation is old, Danzo is ambitious but lacks talent, while Utane Koharu and Mito Kado En are taking advantage of their seniority.

Tsunade is hemophobic, and Jiraiya doesn't stay at home.

Kakashi stopped at the Kage level, and Red Bean was completely ruined.

Ninjas like Yuhi Kurenai, Sarutobi Asuma, Nara Shikaku, etc., due to their limited talents, it is difficult for them to even reach the level of Kage. If a war breaks out with the other four major ninja villages, the only ones they can show off are:
Hyuga Hiashi, Akimichi Choza, Aburame Shiwei?
But their strength is only at the Kage level, how can they be a match for Ōnoki and the Raikage Ai.

Might Guy is a consumable that can only be burned once.

When Orochimaru was carrying out the [Konoha Collapse Plan], he disguised himself as the Kazekage and kidnapped Sarutobi Hiruzen. If he wanted to, he could have used a kunai and Sarutobi Hiruzen would have become the shame of all the Hokage.

But Orochimaru still let Sarutobi Hiruzen go, and then summoned the First and Second Generation Hokage to pave the way for Sarutobi Hiruzen's fame, all in the name of giving Sarutobi Hiruzen a luxurious funeral.

“Hahahaha!!!”

"This trip has been fruitful." After Orochimaru sealed several stolen Uchiha corpses into the sealing scroll, he opened his mouth into an exaggerated arc and swallowed them.

·······
Hokage Building!
In the office with huge glass floor-to-ceiling windows,

Sarutobi Hiruzen was wearing the Hokage hat and a divine robe, and was sitting on a chair behind the desk. Only a vague outline could be seen in the moonlight.

"When I entered Setsuna Courtyard."

"He seemed to have known that I would come to him. From his words, I found that Shisui and I had no secrets from him."

"Even Elder Danzo and I's actions tonight don't seem to be a secret to him."

"I doubt……"

"Setsun deliberately let us slaughter the family, using us to seize the family's power and at the same time trigger more Mangekyō."

"Setsuna is a cunning and scheming madman!"

"What happened tonight may have been completely in his plan. He was too calm and composed."

Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was in the shadows, took a long puff of his pipe and said slowly: "The village will remember your contribution."

"Go with peace of mind!"

"I'll take care of Sasuke."

"Thank you for your kindness, Hokage." The figure kneeling on one knee under the desk disappeared into the office.

After regaining his composure, Sarutobi Hiruzen looked down at his left hand which was twitching constantly.

"Why is the rust on the Sword so strong?"

After leaving the Uchiha clan's territory, Sarutobi Hiruzen immediately went to the Konoha Hospital for a physical check-up.

The test results horrified him.

A large amount of rust had unknowingly accumulated in his body, causing him to not only suffer from meningitis and tetanus, but also symptoms of sepsis.

If he had not ended the battle in time and had continued to delay the battle for a while, he would have died from the infection caused by the rust entering the wound.

Ninja!
It is a cultivation system that only increases destructive power but does not increase the level of life.

If Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't use chakra, his physical fitness would not be much better than that of an ordinary person.

"Could it be that Setsuna's second pupil technique is to control rust?"

········
An old voice was heard in the world of lush vegetation.

"Bunta!"

"The Great Toad Immortal said that the prophecy has changed."

"Call little Jiraiya back quickly."

·······
The void underworld!

"He is not the reincarnation of Indra!"

"Hey~~"

"This tribe of Indra is trouble!"

"There are always a few people who jump out of the script."

An old man with horns on his head and circles of patterns in his eyes was talking to himself. (End of this chapter)
