12 Chapter 12 One Man Show

Konoha.

The Sun hung high and under the dazzling sunshine was a prosperous village, full of cheerfulness and spirituality

Hokage Building.

Inside Hokage Office.

Hokage Building is a large circular building and the Japanese word meaning "Fire" is painted on it.

5 figures, 2 women and three men were present in the Hokage Office, the atmosphere full of tense air.

"Is it really true, Sakura, Lady Tsunade?"

Kakashi, the sixth Hokage looked at Sakura and Tsunade and asked, the shock in his eyes hard to conceal.

"Sigh...

"From his tone, it didn't look like he was lying and the information he told even if it is wrong, we still have to investigate!!"

Tsunade sighed and told her opinion as even after retiring she still had to deal with such matters, tiring her.

"About this Isshiki Otsutsuki, I think this information might be true, we all know that Kaguya created White Zetsu long ago before Shinobi existed"

"With her power,s why did she have to create such an army, it can only be because she feared someone"

"Sasuke has been searching for clues for all this time but he didn't find anything...I think we should start by investigating this Kara Organization"

"Daemon, the outer of Kara, as you mentioned said he worshipped and worked under this Isshiki Otsutsuki, so I think we can assume he is the leader of this organization"

Shikamaru using his brain quickly told all the possible outcomes and gave suggestions to deal with the situation as soon as possible.

"It's been only 7 years since the war... if the news about another Otsutsuki is leaked...it can cause panic..."

"I think before telling other villages about it, we should let Sasuke investigate this matter alone to find concrete evidence"

Naruto standing beside Shikamaru gave the suggestion as everyone present couldn't help but think about it.

The after-effects of the last war are still there; with another such news...it can definitely cause restlessness.

"Then let's do as Naruto said, we'll let Sasuke handle the matter of Kara and this Isshiki Otsutsuki..."

Kakashi nodded agreeing with Naruto as he told his decision which everyone present didn't object.

"Now, let's talk about the other matter, what do you say about it Shikamaru?"

Asked Kakashi as even the mask could not hide his serious expression.

The matter of Isshiki and Kara was handed to Sasuke and this matter was up to them to solve.

"The one who will fight the gods and also the god I believe and work under...Isshiki Otsutsuki"

"First of all, from these words, I think we can safely assume that besides Kaguya and this Isshiki, there are even more Otsutsuki out there"

"Second, about this God Killer, Trafalgar D. Water Law, we can also assume that he wasn't from this planet either, just like Kaguya"

"His name is too strange, I know more or less about the custom of every nation out there, but in no region there, has been such a strange name..."

"But another reason why I'm convinced that this God Killer, isn't from this planet is; since he could kill Gods which are most likely to be Otsutsuki"

"Than he is bound to be strong and strong leave their name in history just like Sage of Six Paths did"

"We all know how strong Kaguya was, someone who can kill such a deity can never be nameless or ignored by the History"

"Of course, if he could remove others' memories then I may be wrong but I still believe this God Killer isn't from our planet"

"As expected from a Nara...just leave everything to them!!"

Shikamaru started speaking and the more he did, the more speechless others got and in the end, they couldn't help but praise him.

They just couldn't keep up with this guy's brain as the difference was too much.

"About this Will of D. and who can be the reincarnation of Trafalgar D. Water Law, I also have some guesses in my mind"

Shikamaru didn't know about the shock of others as rubbing his goatee, he kept talking.

"What guesses?"

Asked Kakashi as he nearly shed tears of Joy, Shikamaru really helped him a lot, lowering his work a lot.

"First, about this Will of D., I think it is something that threatens the safety of Otsutsuki"

"Since he used to Kill Otsutsuki, it's most likely that his will is like exterminating the Otsutsuki or something like that"

"And about who can be the reincarnation of this God Killer, I think it's most likely a kid who isn't that old either"

"Why do you say that?"

The first sentence about the will of D. did make a lot of sense but the second part confused them as they couldn't keep up with his brain so they had no choice but to ask him.

"Daemon said that he is here to kill the reincarnation of the God Killer, who is still weak"

"Why would Kara Organization send someone as weak as that guy to kill such a future threat?"

"According to Sakura and Lady Tsunade, that Daemon had at most the strength of Chunin"

"It can only mean that the reincarnation of the God Killer isn't that old and is too weak...that some strong members of Kara disdain killing him"

"Of course, it can also be that I'm overthinking... but I can't come up with anything else"

"No... we believe you!!"

But contrary to Shikamaru's expectations, everyone raised their hands in submission, accepting him to be the wisest ever.

"As Shikamaru had said, it is most likely that the reincarnation might be a child of our village, we need to find him quietly and quickly before Kara does"

"If the prophecy is true, then we would need the help of this kid to deal with the Otsutsuki"

"Even Naruto and Sasuke won't be able to deal with multiple existences like Kaguya at once"

"For now, keep this matter to a limited trustworthy circle, we can't afford to be careless"

Un.

Kakashi advised everyone to start looking, for an extraordinary and strong child as they nodded understanding the gravity of the situation
