Chapter 78: Eight Trigrams Seal

“Your Tailed Beast Ball is nothing special.”

Kawakaze stood firm, unscathed, his sword in hand. His golden pupils remained locked on Chōmei, the Seven-Tails.

“Impossible, absolutely impossible,” the Seven-Tails roared in disbelief. His Tailed Beast Ball had been cleaved in tw...

Chapter 77: Chōmei, the Seven Tails

“Look at you being so stingy. I was just asking,” Kawakaze said casually.

“That stuff kills people. I don’t want it."

“But why don’t you use it?” Kawakaze pressed, still sensing the Village Head’s guarded demeanor. His curiosity was genuine, but he could clearly see th...

Chapter 76: Compromise

A massive crack erupted from the ground where Tsunade's fist struck, snaking its way toward the Takigakure ninja.

"Ah!"

The weak Takigakure ninja were caught off guard, several of them tumbling into the fissure while only a handful managed to avoid the devastating blow. It was painful...

Chapter 75: Village Hidden by a Waterfall

"It's easy to say whatever you want when you find it, but I don't know if the Seven-Tails in Takigakure is sealed in an object or within a human host."

Kawakaze had already considered this question. If it was sealed in a Jinchūriki, the first step would be to unseal it, allowing the Seven-...

Chapter 74: The Beginning of War

After returning victorious from the Land of Rain, Konoha had settled into a rare period of calm.

Kawakaze and Tsunade frequently engaged in "deep discussions about the sparsely populated Hatake Clan".

This issue weighed heavily on Tsunade, and the two of them maintained a disciplined ...

Chapter 73: Finally in Hand

At this point, a cat could be doing handstands and a dog breakdancing, and it still wouldn’t change anything between them.

Kawakaze was effectively useless, so Tsunade and he retreated to their respective rooms. Both had already washed up. Tsunade, dressed in a loose-fitting robe, walked ...

Chapter 72: A Grand Banquet for the Guests

“Uncle, Auntie.”

The three children didn’t wait for Kawakaze to introduce them and called out enthusiastically.

“Hello! No need to be formal. Treat this as your own home from now on.”

The sparsely populated Hatake Clan was now bustling with activity, and Nayuki’s mat...

Chapter 71: Triumphant Return

As the group moved farther into the distance, a yin-yang face emerged on the ground, watching Kawakaze and the others intently, its expression dark. The Rinnegan meant too much to him. It wasn’t until Kawakaze and the group vanished from sight that the face sank into the earth and disappeared w...

Chapter 70: Kidnapping the Little Trio

“No, they have a blood feud with Konoha.”

Jiraiya sipped his sake, voicing his opposition. In the original story, deep down, he might have carried a guilty conscience, having trained the three younglings for years without bringing them back to Konoha.

“I don't approve either,”...

Chapter 69: Nagato and the Little Trio

“We have many people poisoned now, so we must hurry back to Konoha as soon as possible,” Tsunade said, taking out the antidote that Lady Katsuyu, the Slug, had delivered. “I now have the antidote, and I can quickly prepare a large batch.”

“How long will your antidote last?” Jira...

Chapter 68: Kawakaze vs. Hanzō

“You killed Kandachi?”

Hanzō's eyes narrowed sharply. Kandachi was his top fighter—his “right hand.”

“So, his name was Kandachi.”

“You can still see his body if you go now.”

Kawakaze stood with his sword drawn. After saving Tsunade, his emotions had sett...

Chapter 67: Kawakaze Rushes to the Rescue

Ibuse's head caved under Tsunade’s devastating kick, interrupting the gathering of the poisonous mist. Writhing in pain, Ibuse didn’t need Hanzō’s command; he instinctively twisted his body and swung his massive tail at Tsunade.

“Fire Release: Toad Oil Flame Bullet!”

Jiraiy...

Chapter 66: Hanzō Becomes Kandachi

Hanzō observed Tsunade and the others chasing the Amegakure ninja master off the battlefield, a sly smirk forming beneath his mask.

"I'm over here, kid," he called out.

Kawakaze turned toward the voice and saw Hanzō perched on a large tree near the battlefield, casually twirling his...

Chapter 65: A Trap for the Enemy

Bang!

Hanzō learned that during his absence, the patrolling Amegakure Ninja had been massacred, and the low table in front of him was smashed to pieces.

This time, the Konoha team consisted of six exceptionally strong Ninjas, with Orochimaru being just one of them. As for th...

Chapter 64: Hanzō’s Missed Strike

Orochimaru immediately dispatched a ninja to summon the intelligence officer who had arrived earlier, using a specialized communication method. Having just arrived, Orochimaru was uncertain whether Hanzō had deployed Amegakure spies to monitor their movements.

After a brief rest, the summo...

Chapter 63: Return to the Land of Rain

Since it was a meeting, Jiraiya brought his Konoha forehead protector and wore a green ninja vest.

His long white hair, tied casually behind his head, reached his waist, and the red mark under his eye had not yet extended to his mouth.

"Hello, Kawakaze," Jiraiya greeted with a warm sm...

Chapter 62: Jiraiya

When the injured were taken to Konoha Hospital, the conscious Ninja reported the battlefield situation to Tsunade. She could only offer words of comfort and apply medicine to suppress the Ibuse toxin, temporarily saving their lives. Taking a blood sample of the toxin to the laboratory, she began ...

Chapter 61: Orochimaru’s Crushing Defeat

“Ibuse, break the Ninjutsu on the other side first,” Hanzō commanded.

“Ooh-wah, ooh-wah,” Ibuse cried loudly, moving its massive body with surprising agility. With a flick of its tail, it obliterated the combined Ninjutsu from the Konoha side, reducing it to ashes.

“Ooh-wah...

Chapter 60: Supplies Arrive

Shinku was very attentive to his wife, generously paying for three months of postpartum care in one go. Tsunade was so thrilled that she nearly broke the threshold of his hospital room. A big client indeed.

Shinku was diligent, checking in daily and offering kind words. However, what Tsunad...

Chapter 59: Kurenai Yūhi

"Are you Shinku Yuhi?" Tsunade asked.

"Yes, Lady Tsunade," the man replied. Though he knew Tsunade, she didn’t seem to recognize him.

"This is the room. They'll be discharged soon."

"You sit first," Tsunade said with a smile, leading the client into the room. It was a single, ...

Chapter 58: The Birth of Kakashi

As time passed, more people gathered outside the delivery room.

First, Duy returned alone, followed by Minato, who brought dinner. Soon after, Nawaki arrived with Kushina. The waiting area outside the delivery room was bustling and crowded.

Kawakaze and Sakumo finished eating the dinn...

Chapter 57: Approaching Childbirth

Orochimaru and the Third Hokage exchanged letters, yet he remained hesitant to apply pressure on the Daimyō. After repeated persuasion from Orochimaru, the Third Hokage finally relented, sending someone to confront the Daimyō's office once more. As the most formidable force in the Land of Fire,...

Chapter 56: Hanzō’s Treacherous Scheme

"The baby is developing well,” Tsunade said as she led Nayuki out of the bedroom.

“I’m relieved to hear that. Thank you.” Nayuki touched her stomach, a budding sense of motherly love showing in her expression.

“You don’t need to be polite with me,” Tsunade replied warmly...

Chapter 55: Return to Konoha

Kawakaze, this camp is no longer of any use,” Orochimaru declared, surveying the ruins of the warehouse before turning to Kawakaze. “I will lead the troops to evacuate and head to a town in the Land of Fire to settle down temporarily. We’ll find another campsite once the supplies arrive.”...

Chapter 54: Supply Lines Destroyed

“Fine, then let's send someone back.”

Kawakaze was unable to fully understand the nuances of the situation but opting to go along with the flow.

The original story hadn’t detailed much about the Second Shinobi World War—only the appearances of key figures. Kawakaze analyzed th...

Chapter 53: Direct Confrontation

As Orochimaru advanced, Yamaru had already led the Amegakure ninja to block Konoha's path. A sense of relief washed over him—finally, he understood the Konoha ninja's intentions.

“Yamaru-sama, the Konoha forces are outnumbered. Should we avoid direct confrontation?” Tsugijirō suggest...

Chapter 52: Massive Offensive

“Kawakaze, your guess is correct,” Orochimaru said.

“The Amegakure Ninja are retreating, avoiding direct confrontation with us. There are eyes everywhere, so at most, they’ll set up some traps. They have no intention of attacking us directly.”

He paused, sipping his sake. �...

Chapter 51: Searching for Amegakure Ninja

After a night of rest, Orochimaru began deploying his troops early the next morning. He assembled all the Hyūga Clan members and sensor-type ninjas, forming specialized teams consisting of one Jōnin and three Chūnin each. Orochimaru himself led a sizable group of Konoha ninja to search the nor...

Chapter 50: The Arrival of the Main Force

They returned to camp faster than they had left, with Kawakaze carrying Nawaki on his back. A Konoha ninja on duty approached to inquire, his demeanor noticeably warmer than when they first arrived. After a quick confirmation of their identities, he allowed them in.

Kawakaze headed straight...

Chapter 49: A Trial of Blood

An inch longer brings strength; an inch shorter, danger. This principle was evident in the fierce clash before them—the collision of skills was formidable but not overly perilous.

The two young ninja swords, wielded with precision and a solid foundation, forced the three Amegakure Ninja i...
