And Konoha, which is isolated from the world, has become a paradise-like existence.

With good public security, prosperous economy and advanced technology, this place is the yearning of countless people and their spiritual second home.

Rich and powerful people from villages in various countries have sent their families and children to Konoha to live, study and enjoy themselves there, and even obtain Konoha status and settle permanently.

Talents and money from all the ninja world are constantly flowing to Konoha. As a result, Konoha develops better and attracts more talents and funds.

This process is like a snowball, causing Konoha to develop rapidly like a rocket.

Unconsciously.

Eight years passed by in a flash.

In the blink of an eye, a spring breeze blew across the land of the ninja world, and it was Konoha's 64th year.

Today is a cloudless day.

Viewed from mid-air, the inner ring of Konoha is the former old city, with important buildings such as the castle tower, ninja school, Konoha No. 1 Hospital, ANBU building and police headquarters gathered together.

The outer ring is the new city, which is full of modern skyscrapers. Trams are speeding on the tracks. An airport has even been built, and airships fly over from time to time.

The streets were crowded with pedestrians like ants. The population of Konoha has increased more than tenfold in the past ten years.

From hundreds of thousands to nearly three million people.

Today's Konoha is no longer the small village it was in the past, but has become a metropolis, with its economy and culture flourishing to the extreme.

but.

Behind such prosperity, there are also some hidden dangers.

The spies from the major ninja villages, as well as the former enemies of the Uchiha clan, were all hiding in the dark and watching.

They have been dormant for eight years, but they can no longer bear it anymore, and recently they have started to make moves.

The outer suburbs of Konoha.

This is a vast forest that is classified as a natural forest logging prohibited area by the Konoha Forestry Department and is strictly protected by law.

The trees in this nature reserve are all towering trees with a lifespan of hundreds or even hundreds of years. When walking among them, you can't see the sun when you look up.

at this time.

Deep in the forest, inside a large tree tens of meters high with several people hugging each other.

Two voices, one female and one male, sounded one after another.

What are you going to do?

Before taking action, I want to go back and have a look. I heard that Uchiha Sudan has made a gimmick of permanent neutrality, harvesting talents and resources from all the ninja world, draining the blood of major ninja villages, and for the constant outbreaks of ninja world. The war chose to sit on the sidelines.

This kind of peace is only the peace of Konoha, not the peace of the entire ninja world.

After hearing this, the woman was silent for a while and then asked:

Do you want to contact Xianglin? Let her act with you then.

The man shook his head:

No.

Xiang Rin had been undercover in Konoha for so many years, and finally became Tsunade's disciple and won the latter's trust. If people see her with me and arouse suspicion among people in Konoha, wouldn't her efforts be in vain?

It's okay for me to go alone. Anyway, this time it's just a casual walk around.

The woman nodded:

I understand, the sacrifice has been prepared for you, let's get started.

These two people were none other than Konan and Naruto from the Akatsuki organization.

After saying that, Naruto looked to the side, where a Jounin of Konoha was tied up and was staring at the two people with a frown.

Who are you, and what are your intentions towards Konoha? I warn you, let me go immediately!

The jounin shouted sternly, but he looked a little angry.

You don't need to know my identity, because you will be a dead man soon.

Naruto said calmly, then raised his hand to form a seal.

You, what did you do to me...ah!

The man looked horrified, let out a scream, and then his whole appearance changed, finally turning into another Naruto.

The art of turning elephants.

This is one of the abilities of the Samsara Eye.

It can project the caster's pupil power onto a human sacrifice, creating an exquisite identical body that is equivalent to a clone of Naruto.

It is different from ordinary shadow clones.

The sacrifice that was cast on the Elephant Turn Jutsu was a flesh-and-blood existence, and its appearance was 100% identical to Naruto's.

Moreover, the Shogun clone can not only inherit Naruto's ninjutsu and abilities, but can even restore the weapons and ninja tools used by Naruto. It is a clone technique without any flaws.

Its only weakness.

When the chakra of the living sacrifice is exhausted, this technique will be automatically canceled and the sacrifice will die on the spot.

This sacrifice... is barely acceptable. It can withstand 30% of my chakra. As long as the opponent is not Uchiha Dan, it should be no problem to hit anyone.

Naruto's Shogun clone spoke, his voice exactly like his own.

Over the past eight years or so.

After undergoing arduous training that is unimaginable to ordinary people, he has fully adapted to the power of the Samsara Eye and is even more powerful than Nagato back then.

After all, Nagato suffered from disabled legs in his early years and could only sit in a wheelchair for a long time and fight through the Six Paths of Pain. Over time, your body will inevitably deteriorate.

Naruto, on the other hand, not only concentrated the power of Pain's Six Paths into one body and mastered it, but also developed a strong body without being weighed down by the Rinnegan.

He even reached a consensus with the Nine-Tails in his body and became the perfect Jinchuuriki.

In Xiaonan's words.

Naruto is now the strongest ninja in history, even surpassing the ninja god Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara.

Of course, there are breaks.

Naruto's elephant-turned clone quickly walked out of the tree and headed for Konoha.

His body sat down on the spot and closed his eyes.

Another advantage of the Elephant Turning Technique compared to Shadow Clone is that it can be controlled at super long distances through the will of the caster.

This means that Naruto's body does not need to be on the battlefield in person to direct the clone's actions and battles. It can be said that there is no risk.

Uh-huh.

Konan formed a seal, and the tree closed again, protecting her and Naruto.

She stayed with Naruto silently, looking at his face and lost in her thoughts.

Nine years.

Nine years ago, when she and Nagato came to Konoha, it was a familiar scene. In the end, Nagato entrusted the Rinnegan to her along with Naruto, but he himself was unfortunately killed by Uchiha Dan.

only.

This time, Xiaonan was determined not to let that happen again.

She must protect Naruto no matter what, even if it means sacrificing her own life, she must help him fulfill Akatsuki's ideal, which is also the ideal of Yahiko and Nagato——

Let the ninja world realize fairness and justice and usher in true peace.

Chapter 259, Naruto travels to Konoha

Wow.

Naruto stood in front of the gate of Konoha Village - Konoha City to be precise, and let out a sincere exclamation.

The tall buildings in front of him in Konoha no longer bear any resemblance to the village he remembered when he was a child.

So much so that Naruto almost thought he was going the wrong way.

For the past eight years, he had been hiding in an unknown corner of the ninja world, immersed himself in training, and was almost isolated from the world.

Seeing this modern metropolis at this time, I suddenly felt like I was in another world.

Walking on the streets of Konoha, Naruto was a little confused.

He is lost.

Konoha is so big that it would be impossible to walk around it all day and night with just one pair of legs, so you have to use transportation.

Fortunately, at this time, Naruto followed the direction of the crowd and noticed the tram stop not far away.

After he walked over, he checked the route map and found that there was a tourist line.

This special line will pass through Konoha's famous landmarks and attractions such as the Ninja School, the Central Square, the Castle Tower, the Uchiha Clan, and the Food Street. The tram is also thoughtfully equipped with a tour guide to explain the entire journey.

The ticket price is slightly more expensive, an ordinary seat costs 200 taels, and a business class seat is even more expensive, a full 1,000 taels.

but.

After all, Naruto is the leader of the Akatsuki organization, and he is still worth a bit. There is a huge sum of fifty million taels in a card he carries with him.

All this money was earned by Akatsuki's financial director, Mr. Kakuzu, through hard work for the organization.

drop.

Naruto quickly swiped his card, bought the most expensive ticket, and entered the business class.

As expected of business class, the decoration is very luxurious.

Not only are there leather massage seats and free drinks and refreshments, but soft and soothing music is played, and floor-to-ceiling windows are installed that will not block the view so that visitors can enjoy the beautiful scenery of Konoha.

Really enjoy it.

Naruto sighed inwardly, sat down on the leather seat, and looked at the bustling street scene outside the window.

On the seat next to him was a mother and daughter dressed in luxurious clothes. The conversation between the two reached Naruto's ears without missing a word.

Mom, look, Konoha is so big and beautiful. It's not like our Sunagakure Village, where there are deserts everywhere and wind and sand blowing every day... I don't want to go back.

The little girl pouted as she talked, feeling disgusted with her hometown.

Her mother heard this and said to her daughter seriously:

So, mom spent so much money to send you to Konoha's ninja school, you must study hard, you know?

As long as you can pass the chunin exam, successfully stay and work here, and obtain the status of a permanent villager in Konoha, your family will be able to buy you a house in Konoha.

Very good.

The little girl danced for joy and said with a serious face, After I become a Konoha villager, I want to take you and your father over and reunite our family.

So good. The mother touched her daughter's head happily.

Naruto frowned slightly and glanced at the mother and daughter.

He could tell that the mother had chakra flowing in her body, so she was obviously a ninja from Sunagakure, and most likely a jounin.

He sent his children to other ninja villages and planned to immigrate with them in the future.

In the world of ninjas, this kind of behavior is undoubtedly considered a traitor to the village and will be severely condemned and even substantively punished.

However, the other passengers in the carriage did not show any strange expressions after hearing the conversation between the mother and daughter. Instead, they all smiled and looked very much in agreement.

It seems that everyone thinks so.

Humph, a group of spiritual Konoha people.

Naruto sneered in his heart, shook his head, and then subconsciously thought of Xiang Lin.

A few years ago, under the orders of Teacher Konan, Xianglin sneaked into Konoha's ninja school under a false identity and performed a long-term espionage mission, responsible for collecting intelligence on Konoha and the Uchiha clan for the Akatsuki organization.

Xiang Rin did not live up to the expectations of the organization and quickly emerged, especially her talent in medical ninjutsu, which even alarmed Tsunade, the director of the medical department and high-level advisor to Konoha.

After all, she is from the Uzumaki clan. Even if she has not learned any medical ninjutsu, she can heal most patients just by relying on her special physique.

Later, Xiang Rin graduated from the ninja school early and studied with Tsunade early on, and was trained by the latter as his successor.
