Chapter 260

Waterfall Country, Takigakure.

This country has a rather peculiar terrain, consisting of many wide but low mountains, and most of the settlements are located on the created plains in the mountains.

There are a large number of villages located behind the waterfalls, and Takigakure is one of them, it is located behind a huge waterfall.

At this moment.

The waterfall was completely destroyed, and in its place a large gorge was formed, apparently, this was due to the explosion of the Bijudama.

Streams of water flowed down the sides of the gorge, and in the center was the ruined Takigakure.

Here you could see the gathered Shinobi Taki, but the symbols on their forehead protectors were already different.

They still had the symbol of their native village on them, but now there was a large Konoha symbol next to it, the two symbols were connected by a strip that meant unification.

All other shinobi of the villages absorbed by Konoha wear approximately the same forehead protectors to show which village the Shinobi originally belonged to.

This was also done to stabilize the situation and demonstrate Konoha's dominance.

The younger generation of Shinobi will be trained at the Konoha Shinobi Academy, and after graduation, they will wear the usual Konoha forehead protector, without the symbol of their native village.

"It's terrible...»

Kurenai stood at the edge of the canyon and stared in shock at the ruined Takigakure below.

Looking at the situation, we can assume that Takigakure lost not only more than half of the Shinobi, but most likely, many civilians and children were killed.

Biju is a double-edged sword for most Shinobi villages.

Good control will bring great power, and bad control will bring great hidden danger.

"Why did they even want to get Bija?..»

Rin, who was standing next to him, whispered softly.

Why is she here?

The reason for this is extremely simple.

She couldn't just watch Kurenai and Yeruashi go on a journey together...

What if they have children after they return?!

"No, I'm not.»

Yeruashi appeared next to Rin and shook his head, " At that time, Takigakure really had the necessary qualifications and was able to control Biju. Then in their ranks was a very strong Shinobi named Kakuzu, who survived the attempted murder of Senju Hashirama.»

"Unfortunately, after returning to the village, he was punished for failing the mission to kill the First Hokage. As a result, he became a renegade and killed a large number of Shinobi during the escape, which led to a significant weakening of the village.»

In recent years, during the conquest of small Shinobi villages and countries, Konoha collected quite a lot of information about them, after combining with his own knowledge, Yeruashi began to understand the history of most small Shinobi villages quite well.

Kurenai looked at Yeruashi in surprise, " Killing the First Hokage?»

"Yes...»

Yeruashi grinned, "He also tried to kill me, but failed again, heh-heh-heh.»

Rin looked at Yeruashi in shock, " Tried to kill you?! But if this Shinobi lived back in the days of the First Hokage, his age should be...»

"Ah, he had some minor means to prolong life, a few hearts...»

Yeruashi casually explained Kakuzu's abilities in a few words and jumped down, landing in front of the destroyed Takigakure.

The Shinobi have already detected the presence of Yeruashi, Rin, and Kurenai. Seeing the falling Yeruashi, many Shinobi took a deep breath and immediately approached him.

"Lord Hokage...»

Shinobi's views were still quite complex.

Initially, they belonged to a full-fledged Shinobi village, but now, in fact, it is still a daughter village of Konoha. Although it seems that they joined voluntarily, but in fact, they did not have the opportunity to avoid the fate of being absorbed by Konoha.

But that's not bad either.

They will no longer have to worry about external enemies, because Konoha is unquestionably the strongest of the Great Villages.

Even...

The picture of the five Great Villages is already beginning to become a relic of the past.

According to a huge number of Shinobi, the picture of the world has already completely changed, now Konoha stands at the top, surpassing the other Great Villages.

"Where's Nanabi?»

Yeruashi looked at Shinobi Taki and without hesitation immediately got down to business.

Hisen, the current head of Takigakure, or rather the Commander of the Konoha branch in the Land of the Waterfall, approached Yeruashi: "I am able to determine the position of Nanabi, but Lord Hokage...are you going to act only as a threesome?»

Hisen was very tense.

This is the Fifth Hokage!

He put an end to the Third Shinobi World War and is known as the Shinobi God!

But a person who has such a high-profile reputation in the Shinobi world was too young and did not radiate any power, is he really as strong as the rumors say?!

"Yes, since you can track down Nanabi, then just take us to him.»

Yeruashi looked at Hisen and nodded calmly.

Hisen calmed his emotions, folded a series of seals, and closed his eyes, taking in Nanabi's position, after a while, he opened his eyes and said, " Follow me, Lord Hokage!»

Phew!

He quickly ran in a certain direction.

Yeruashi looked after the fleeing Hisen, and in the next moment, his figure blurred and disappeared, Kurenai and Rin also following them.

The four figures quickly ran through the green mountains.

About half a day later.

"It's been quite a while since my last meeting with Choumei.»

Kurama's voice sounded in Yeruashi's head.

The fox could already perceive Nanabi's chakra, and Yeruashi felt it even earlier.

Phew! Phew!!

Hisen, Yeruashi, and the others stopped at the edge of the gorge.

Hisen nervously looked deep into the gorge and spoke to Yeruashi, a cold sweat broke out on his forehead: "Lord Hokage, Nanabi is there.»

He felt a strong sense of fear as he sensed Nanabi's chakra nearby.

The image of a rampaging Biju flashed through my mind, and how just one Biju Dam had destroyed most of the village, leaving the grand canyon in its place.

At the thought of Nanabi being in this gorge, Hansen instinctively felt a strong desire to escape as soon as possible.

When he looked at Yeruashi, he felt a tremor in his heart.

The fifth Hokage, called the God of Shinobi, as well as Senju Hashirama, who in the past divided Biju between the villages of Shinobi, should be able to suppress Nanabi.

"Kurenai, Rin, stand back.»

Yeruashi took a step forward, stepping onto the edge of the gorge, at the same time his body was shrouded in a golden covering.

Rin and Kurenai looked at each other and calmly moved back, while Hisen quickly ran even further away.

Coming to the very edge of the gorge, Yeruashi calmly raised his hands and folded a series of seals, a huge amount of chakra gushed out of his body, and a glow flashed in his eyes.

"Senjutsu.»

"Mockuton...True Thousands Of Hands!»

Boom!!!

Accompanied by a monstrous rumble and a shuddering earth, a wooden figure, much larger than even the Completed Susanoo, quickly appeared at the edge of the gorge, with a huge number of wooden palms stacked in three rows around it in a semicircle.

Then.

Under Hysen's shocked and disbelieving gaze, several wooden arms began to quickly lengthen and rush towards the gorge.

There was a rumble and a roar from the gorge, and then wooden hands pulled Nanabi out of the gorge and lifted him into the air.

Nanabi struggled with all his might, trying to shake those wooden hands, but it was all in vain.

He felt again that fear and helplessness from the past that he had experienced when facing Senju Hashirama.

"Senju Hashirama!!!»

Choumei let out an indignant and helpless cry.
