These intel reports are very detailed, covering everything from Naruto's birth until now.
"Wait, there's a question."
Ōtsutsuki Urashiki narrowed his eyes, pointed at the intel, and asked suspiciously, "Five years old? A change!"
"If I'm not mistaken, five years old was a turning point."
"Exactly!"
Ōtsutsuki Isshiki looked at Ōtsutsuki Urashikiapprovingly, "You're absolutely right, five years old was Uzumaki Naruto's turning point."
"Can you tell me why?"
"No!"
Ōtsutsuki Isshiki spread his hands, "Although I'm also very curious and want to know why, and I've tried to investigate."
"But unfortunately, nothing was found."
He shook his head regretfully, "I only know that he seemed to have a breakthrough overnight, and then came his path to prominence."
"Could he have been possessed?"
Ōtsutsuki Momoshiki frowned, thinking of his clan's abilities, and seemed to ponder.
"That possibility isn't ruled out, but the key issue isn't that; it's how we're going to collect Chakra."
Right!
The others paused, then smiled wryly.
Dwelling on these things is meaningless; even if he was possessed, it has nothing to do with them.
They are now inherently hostile.
They should be thinking about how to kill Uzumaki Naruto.
"From the intel, it seems that as long as Uzumaki Naruto is killed, all problems will be resolved easily."
"You're right."
Ōtsutsuki Isshiki put away the intel they had, agreeing completely with Ōtsutsuki Momoshiki's words.
"According to the intel, all the Tailed Beasts are with Naruto, so what we need to do is…"
Ōtsutsuki Urashiki swung the fishing rod in his hand and said with a smile, "The first battle is the decisive battle; one battle will determine everything."
"Precisely."
"Then let's discuss the details."
The group gathered, and after a long time, Ōtsutsuki Momoshiki suddenly frowned and asked, "Uzumaki Naruto is a daimyo, so can we use ordinary people to our advantage?"
"Dream on!"
Ōtsutsuki Isshiki was speechless, "I thought about that too, but Uzumaki Naruto isn't that noble, so it's completely pointless!"
Alright!
Ōtsutsuki Momoshiki just mentioned it; if it worked, great, but if not, it wasn't a big problem.
Either way, they were going to fight.
"In the coming time, I will track Uzumaki Naruto's movements, and then we'll depart directly."
Ōtsutsuki Isshiki didn't want to wait, and knew he couldn't wait any longer.
Three years was the limit.
Naruto's growth rate was too exaggerated; he couldn't gamble.
What if this guy improved again after some time? They might not have it so easy then.
...
"There's new news."
The next day,
Naruto was circling the Gedo Statue with Nine-Tailed when Shikamaru rushed over.
"What news?"
"News about Kara."
"So sudden?"
Naruto was startled, not daring to delay, he pulled Shikamaru and instantly appeared before Nara Shikaku.
"I said, Naruto, can you not appear so suddenly?"
Nara Shikaku rubbed his temples, then casually handed over the intel after speaking.
Naruto read ten lines at a glance, quickly understanding why intel had been collected this time.
Because those three were too blatant, leading passersby to see them.
"Looks like a new round of war is about to begin!"
Naruto muttered.
"That's right, these three are from the Ōtsutsuki Clan, and one of them looks very familiar."
"It's that Ōtsutsuki Urashiki!"
Kakashi stood outside the window, holding his Icha Icha Paradise, his eyes narrowed as he smiled, "The previous one was from the future, so this one is his present-day self."
"Kakashi?"
"Yo, morning, Naruto!"
"You still love reading Icha Icha Paradise so much."
"Can't help it, I just like it."
Kakashi shrugged, "This time back, I found that Sasuke and the others have made rapid progress. This era is really good."
"You can barely beat them now, right?"
Kakashi's face darkened at his words.
Uzumaki Naruto, can you not be so direct?
"Alright, back to the main topic. Since they've exposed themselves, we can close the net."
Naruto stopped teasing Kakashi, clapped his hands, and said coldly, "Have all the powerful Ninja prepare."
"This time, our operation's codename is: God Slayer!"
Boom!
The blood of those present boiled.
What a powerful slogan.
Exactly!
Since you call yourselves gods, then we will slay gods.
Let's see who gets the last laugh.
"Prepare more; I also have something I need to do."
Naruto had already left.
But inside the Hokage Office, things began to get busy.
One by one, powerful Ninja were summoned, and after receiving the confirmed news, they left excitedly.
"Is it finally starting?"
On the balcony outside the Hokage Office, Tsunade leaned on the railing, recalling the domineering slogan from earlier and smiling softly, "I never thought it would come to this."
"What's there to not have thought of?"
Orochimaru stepped forward.
Tsunade was a little surprised to see him, "Aren't you going to do research?"
"Do I still have the mood to research? I really want the corpses of those Ōtsutsuki as well."
"Typical of you, Orochimaru!"
Taking a sip of sake, Tsunade shook her head, speechless.
All he thinks about is research, day in and day out.
"By the way, how's your research on the Otsutsuki corpses going? I don't believe you haven't found anything in these three years."
"I've researched a lot of things, but most of them aren't very useful to me."
"How do you see this battle?"
Tsunade quickly changed the subject.
When it came to research, she couldn't out-talk Orochimaru; it was better not to seek trouble.
Orochimaru didn't mind and pondered for a moment before saying, "If we win this time, there will be nothing left in the entire Ninja World to stop Naruto from unifying."
"Unification!"
Tsunade twitched her lips, "I have to say, Uzumaki Naruto's ambition is greater than my grandfather's."
"His talent is also very high, and his ingenious ideas are endless."
Orochimaru commented.
...
"God Slayer!"
Uchiha Itachi, Uchiha Shisui, and Uchiha Fugaku, among others, shook their heads and sighed.
They couldn't help much in this battle.
Aside from their Visual Jutsu, their most powerful skill was Ninjutsu.
Their Taijutsu might also be strong, but they couldn't hold Naruto back.
"Damn it, this feeling of being restrained is so uncomfortable."
Someone slammed the table, but it couldn't change the outcome.
Sasuke, passing by: "..."
He touched his Mangekyo Sharingan and smiled helplessly.
The side effects of the Mangekyo could now be easily eliminated with the vegetables Narutoprovided.
But this time's enemy was indeed not one they could participate against.
"What a pity!"
Sasuke shook his head.
Suddenly...
A calm voice echoed in his mind: "No need to feel pity!"
