Naruto, starting with immortality, I'm going to buy up the ninja world!

Chapter 121 Divine Might Cannot Hide Tears, Everywhere One Looks is Lin?

Having received the money, Hiruzen Sarutobi worked quite efficiently, and news of Sakumo Hatake's death spread.

However, this time his death was different from his original fate. He did not commit suicide because of rumors, but was a hero who sacrificed his life to complete his mission.

He became a figure praised by everyone in Konoha, and a benchmark and idol for ninjas.

It took Kakashi a long time to accept the fact that his father had died.

Konoha held a memorial service for Sakumo Hatake, publicized his deeds, and encouraged the ninjas to take him as a role model and learn from him.

After the memorial service ended, Kakashi returned home alone. Looking at the empty house, he felt a strange, indescribable feeling.

This house is exactly the same as before. Even before, most of the time, I was the only one at home.

In the Hokage's office, Hiruzen Sarutobi was processing intelligence when an ANBU ninja knocked on the door and entered the office after receiving permission.

"Lord Hokage, we have urgent intelligence. News has come from the front lines that a small team from Kumogakure has entered the Land of Fire. According to information obtained by the Hyuga clan, the team is led by the Third Raikage's son and eight Jinchuriki, Killer Bee."

"What? The Third Raikage's son and the Eight-Tails' Jinchuriki? What is Kumogakure trying to do? Sending a Jinchuriki into another country without authorization, are they planning to invade our Land of Fire?!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi's tone was solemn, and he was also somewhat angry.

They clearly don't take this stoic hero seriously.

The Leaf Village knew all too well just how powerful the Tailed Beasts were.

After all, Madara Uchiha broke through Konoha's barrier with the Nine-Tails back then, stormed into the village, and finally started the final battle at the Valley of the End with Konoha's First Hokage.

That battle directly altered the terrain of the Valley of the End.

"Immediately notify Minato and have him lead a team to see what Kumogakure is up to. If their intentions are impure, Minato can be allowed to take action without reporting."

"Understood, Lord Hokage!"

The ANBU ninja responded.

Why send Minato? Because he knew something about the Third Raikage's son. Like his father, the Third Raikage, this young man was skilled in using Lightning Release Chakra Mode and was extremely fast. Ordinary ninjas were no match for him.

To avoid unnecessary casualties, sending out Minato, known as the Yellow Flash, is the safest option.

Moreover, Minato was Jiraiya's disciple and his grand-disciple. The opponent was the son of the Third Raikage, so his side also needed to send a ninja of sufficient caliber. Since the Sannin were not present, Minato was the best choice.

Shuimen received the order and set off immediately.

These two future Fourth Hokage are about to engage in a fateful contest for the title of the fastest ninja in the world.

In the Land of Grass, Tetsuya sat in his office, toying with a Rubik's Cube-sized Box of Elysium.

Huang Bai, who hadn't been seen for a long time, sat on Tetsuya's desk, holding a pipe in one hand and a chicken leg in the other.

A strange person was lying on the floor in front of them.

This guy can't strictly be called a human. He's all white, covered in thorn-like plant-like growths, with light green hair and strange eyes.

"Tetsuya, a lot of these things have appeared in the Land of Grass lately. It seems that someone has designs on the Land of Grass. This guy has gone the furthest and has already reached the vicinity of the capital."

They used a very special technique to hide on passersby in an attempt to sneak into the capital, but this ninjutsu was as conspicuous as a light bulb in the face of Sage Mode, and I caught them before they even entered the capital.

Tetsuya smiled, his eyes slightly narrowed.

"Thank you for your hard work, Master Wong. I didn't expect you to personally take action. I thought that those patrolling the capital were all juniors of your clan."

Huang Bai smiled and took a drag of his cigarette.

"It was indeed some juniors who were patrolling before, but I was just bored. I've been in the Yellow Weasel Grave for so many years, so I thought I'd come out for a walk. Who knew that I would run into this guy after only a few days out?"

"By the way, what are you planning to do with this guy?"

Tetsuya examined the White Zetsu. This thing was actually a product of the Chakra God Tree, transformed from a person whose chakra was drained after casting Infinite Tsukuyomi.

However, they can no longer be called human beings.

"Let's seal it for now. This thing is quite useful. Maybe we can use it to make a deal with an old friend of mine in the future."

The old friend Tetsuya was referring to was none other than Orochimaru, the scientist obsessed with immortality. A White Zetsu body would definitely be his best research subject.

“Master Wong, these things will definitely appear more and more often in the future. However, you don’t need to keep too close an eye on them, as long as they don’t parasitize our Chamber of Commerce members.”

"I understand. I'll inform the younger members of the clan to keep an eye on things. By the way, you should also set up a memorial tablet for Old Master Huang at both the headquarters and branches of the Chamber of Commerce. That way, the old man can keep an eye on all the departments of the Chiba Chamber of Commerce at any time, and these kinds of dirty things won't be able to get in."

Tetsuya was stunned for a moment. Good heavens, was he planning to set up branches in various departments of his chamber of commerce?

But it's good that with the immortals helping to take care of things, there's no need to worry about anyone causing trouble.

He looked at the white monster on the ground again.

This guy's appearance in the Land of Grass suggests that Black Zetsu and his crew are preparing for their next plan.

After all, the turning point in Obito's fate, Kannabi Bridge, was in the Land of Grass. It's likely that the appearance of White Zetsu in the Land of Grass was also due to Black Zetsu scouting ahead of time.

"Alright, Tetsuya, if there's nothing else, I'll head back now. I still need to inform the younger members of the clan. Remember to let me know if you need anything."

"I understand, take care, Wong Tai Sin."

With a bang, Huang Bai broke free from the spirit communication and returned to the Weasel Grave.

Tetsuya then took out a sealing scroll and sealed White Zetsu away.

"The Third Shinobi World War, a war that will influence the shinobi world for decades to come. So what should I do next to make things more interesting?"

Compared to the Second Shinobi World War, which made him rich, Tetsuya's biggest advantage in the Third Shinobi World War was that he used the contract to change his identity from a businessman to a nobleman of the shinobi world and the king of a country.

As for the rest, they're either paving the way for the future or just for fun.

Tetsuya put away the sealing scroll and began to ponder.

If we were to say what was the most crucial thing in the Third Shinobi World War, it would undoubtedly be that Madara Uchiha and Black Zetsu created a villain like Obito.

As everyone knows, even the mighty cannot hide his tears; all he sees is Lin.

Thinking of this, Tetsuya revealed an evil smile.

"Hehehe, young Obito, I'll prepare a special gift for you. I look forward to the day we officially meet."
