"A peaceful new world is just a byproduct of your desires? Orochimaru, your words will make many people's lives a joke!"
Itachi murmured softly.
In fact, he himself now feels sowhat dreamlike, the events of the clan massacre and his betrayal still haunt him like a nightmare.
But in just a few years, Konoha has almost unified the ninja world...
This stark contrast makes him feel as if he himself has beco a joke.
"Who lives without being a joke? The ideals and goals pursued by everyone might be aningless in the eyes of others. Like that old man, once so majestic, now so embarrassing..."
"Do you respect the Third Hokage very much?"
Orochimaru smiled faintly: "Respect? Not really. Maybe as a child I did, but now that the filter is gone, it's just that."
"But he is still my teacher who guided . Without him, I might not have beco a ninja... So as long as he remains calm, his life can be peaceful in old age. In the future, when people ntion him, they will rember that he taught , the Fifth Hokage who unified the ninja world!"
Orochimaru unconsciously boasted, proving that he has surpassed his teacher, which is also a small desire of his.
The desire to show off stemming from biological instincts, as well as the subconscious desire for social recognition, everyone has it to so extent.
Orochimaru is, of course, no exception.
Of course, after truly achieving it, he is now much calr.
Unlike when he launched the Konoha Crush Plan before, which was so fanatical and extre.
In short, after becoming Hokage, everything is different.
"The Third Hokage indeed raised so good students!"
Itachi murmured softly.
He doesn't want to evaluate the Third Hokage himself? It's already aningless, because the tragedy has happened, and he himself is also a criminal.
But it must be admitted, the three students of the Third Hokage, the 'Konoha Sannin', are indeed extraordinary.
Kage from other villages, being able to train one worthy Kage-level successor in a lifeti is already sothing to be grateful for.
Just look at Ōnoki, busy all his life, still the Tsuchikage at 70, you can imagine.
While the Third Hokage directly produced three, and all are at the peak Kage level, possessing the ability and qualifications to beco Hokage.
Comparing like this, it really makes people annoyed.
"What about you? Before leaving, don't you want to take on a disciple again?"
"? Forget it... a criminal is not worthy of taking disciples, it will only harm the disciple."
Itachi sighed, he hasn't thought about this for a long ti.
The rest of his life, he just wants to teach Sasuke well, then revive his parents and part of his clan, and atone for so of his sins is enough.
As for the rest, he no longer dares to hope for too much.
"What a pity, your ninjutsu is not passed down, what a waste of talent!"
"My bloodline is nothing to envy; compared to talent, there are more sins and burdens..."
"Talented and bloodline-endowed people like you don't know how to appreciate, many envy you, Uchiha."
"Envy? If not for this unique bloodline, the Uchiha clan would live more peacefully, right? In the future, even if the world is unified, the Uchiha will still be targeted..."
Itachi frowned, worried.
"Don't overthink. As long as I am alive, no one will dare to target the Uchiha bloodline, you can rest assured."
Orochimaru licked his lips, full of confidence.
As long as he is alive, who dares to touch the Uchiha?
Itachi was silent for a mont.
Although sowhat at a loss for words, he felt this was very reasonable.
If Orochimaru had beco Hokage earlier, perhaps Danzō wouldn't have been able to touch the Uchiha, and the clan massacre wouldn't have happened.
Lab rats are actually safer and more comfortable than wild ones?
What a strange world!
"Thank you, Orochimaru!"
Itachi unconsciously thanked. Being able to protect Sasuke in the future is already a great kindness.
As for whether Orochimaru still targets Sasuke?
Just kidding?
Nagato, Obito, Hidan, Rinnegan, Gedo Mazo, and Ōtsutsuki...
His research materials are now plentiful, Sasuke doesn't even make the queue.
After getting used to luxurious als, who still rembers leftovers?
Moreover, after seeing Sasuke's future strength, Orochimaru might think twice before touching him.
"You're welco. Protecting Konoha ninjas is the duty of the Hokage, isn't it?"
"Besides, Itachi, you should call Lord Hokage now!"
Orochimaru smiled, thoroughly enjoying it.
"..."
Itachi closed his eyes, not wanting to respond.
◆━⊰✧⊱━◆
The subsequent developnt of the situation was almost exactly as Orochimaru had predicted and controlled.
Two days later.
Jiraiya brought back the drunk Tsunade and inford her of the entire plan.
Initially, Tsunade naturally refused.
But Orochimaru's thods are nurous and powerful!
In just a few minutes, Tsunade had surrendered!
Of course, Orochimaru knew, Tsunade's quick surrender was just a facade, fundantally she herself did not want to continue sinking.
Previously, she sank because she saw no hope.
Now there is hope, even a chance to unify the ninja world, change the entire world order, prevent tragedies like Nawaki from happening again.
How could Tsunade refuse?
Moreover, after seeing the real Rinnegan, and knowing Itachi's plan to revive his parents; Tsunade also beca excited and enthusiastically joined the plan.
With Tsunade's joining, the last piece of the puzzle was complete.
Orochimaru's Unification Battle also reached its climax.
In fact, once all the initial preparations were completed, this battle was just a play, and success was certain.
Because the United Empire's troops were mostly ordinary soldiers, plus the long logistical lines, their movent speed was very slow.
Much slower than the high mobility of ninjas.
From gathering troops, entering the forr Land of Fire territory, to fully assembling, and heading towards Konoha Village.
The entire army took more than half a month.
But with the gathering and movent of millions of troops, and Konoha's retreat and surrender.
Until the troops reached within 50 miles of Konoha Village, the allied forces did not face any fierce resistance.
This further fueled the morale of the allied forces.
The entire army was like splitting bamboo, unstoppable, and no longer considered Konoha and ninjas as threats at all!
Even many small villages began to dream, after destroying Konoha and obtaining its legacy, they could swallow a lot of benefits and replace Konoha's position.
After Konoha is destroyed, the five great villages are no more.
Can't they beco the new great villages?
Such fantasies almost spread throughout the allied forces; even the samurai of the Land of Iron began to get arrogant.
If they knew Konoha was so weak, ninjas so cowardly, why be a neutral country?
After this battle, the Land of Iron will also beco a great nation!
All the way, madness.
All the way, arbitrariness.
All the way, radicalism.
Finally, when the allied forces entered the area 20 miles from Konoha Village, everything stopped.
'Hmm?'
'Where did those five strange creatures in the distance co from?'
'They're huge, look terrifying?'
'Did Konoha make giant statues to scare people?'
'Ouch! They can move! They're not statues, they're alive!'
'Wait, what's that black ball in their mouths?'
'Damn! Run...'
Today, humanity finally rembered the fear dominated by Bijuu!
