Side Story: The Travels of Fugaku and His Wife 8

This world's Konoha was excessively strong.

Everything they had seen and heard had opened their eyes.

Some people had even seen the people they had dreamed of seeing again. However, those powerhouses in their minds had to live a wretched existence under the heavy pressure of Konoha's ninjas.

Just as Sasuke Uchiha was scoffing at these so-called emotions, he discovered that something was a little off with his brother.

Itachi Uchiha was staring at a dango shop. There was a long queue at the shop. Although the storefront had changed, the item being sold was still his favorite, three-colored dango.

"If you want to eat dango, I can have Izumi help buy some more…" Mikoto noticed his gaze and said softly, "At this time, she should be buying dango for my Itachi, right?"

"Speaking of which, it's very strange! Ever since Itachi became Hokage, this dango shop has become more and more popular. It's getting harder and harder to buy dango!"

"No need."

Itachi had already noticed the young woman in the queue, but he could only shake his head. "I don't really care about the pleasures of eating…"

Kisame Hoshigaki: "…"

Then why do you always drag me to eat dango every time we go to Konoha?

Don't you know that a big, tall man like him can't get full at a dango shop, no matter how many dango he eats?

Just as Sasuke was feeling bored, his gaze suddenly stopped. He stared intently at an old man at a table and frowned in confusion. "That person… isn't that Konoha's Third Hokage? How is he still alive?"

"Why was he let out today? There shouldn't be anything major going on, right?" A certain unscrupulous Uchiha's expression was a bit unhappy.

Another Uchiha spoke up, "It's probably for a routine questioning about Orochimaru! Who asked him to be Orochimaru's teacher!"

Sasuke Uchiha: "…"

Itachi Uchiha: "…"

This Konoha of yours is a bit strange!

How come this Third Hokage is living a life worse than a prisoner's!

This ninja world was simply beyond ridiculous! However, when they passed by the Hokage Tower, they still felt that they were too young and had seen too little.

Because the Hokage Tower was the only traditional building retained in Konoha. For safety, no high-rise buildings were allowed to be built nearby, and the Konoha plaza in front of the tower was also preserved.

A certain ethereal soul body was sitting alone in the Konoha plaza, enduring the pointing fingers of the crowd. It wasn't until he saw Kaguya that he stood up…

"Who is that…"

A drop of sweat trickled down Karin's forehead. Her expression was abnormally serious. "That guy's chakra, it feels terrifying! That guy is dead, right? Only his soul and chakra are still in this world, right?"

The Zetsu slowly retreated, hiding behind them, its voice sinister. "…That guy is the Sage of Six Paths."

Sasuke's jaw was about to drop. "Are you kidding me? Isn't the Sage of Six Paths a figure of legend!"

"He is…"

An Uchiha scratched his head and said with some helplessness, "Besides monitoring the entire ninja world, he just comes to Konoha to pester the Ancestor…"

"It can't be helped. Who asked him to be Lord Kaguya's son? And the Sage of Six Paths is also our ancestor!"

"Sometimes he even brings the ancestor Indra over…"

"At the beginning, we were actually even more surprised than you! But after seeing him so many times, we just slowly got used to it!"

"He's probably here to request that Lord Fifth Hokage seal Ancestor Kaguya again, right? I really don't know, he's clearly monitoring the ninja world, so why is he always so idle…"

"…"

Sasuke and Itachi looked at each other, feeling as if their worldviews were collapsing and being rebuilt all over again.

Although they also had their doubts about the truth of the matter, they could still feel the powerful strength on the Sage of Six Paths' body when they got close…

It seemed he wasn't a fake. He was the real Sage of Six Paths.

To have seen the legendary Sage of Six Paths in this world today, it seemed this trip was not in vain!

Kaguya seemed to be getting a little impatient with the Sage of Six Paths' pestering. She waved her hand and summoned the Uchiha guards. "You few, help me drive Hagoromo away!"

Fugaku Uchiha: "…"

How awkward!

Two people of the ancestor generation are arguing, and they want the juniors to go up? They can't afford to offend either of them!

Fortunately, Neji Hyuga had the demeanor of a gentleman. He stepped forward and waved his hand at the Sage. "Lord Hagoromo, please don't disturb Ancestor Kaguya's mood. She is your mother, after all. And every time you come to visit her, you make her very unhappy…"

Mm, the Hyuga clan are not descendants of the Sage of Six Paths.

This kind of thing was most suitable for him to do…

No, that's not right. Perhaps that pitch-black fellow in the Hokage's office had once shamelessly cursed him out, and had forcefully driven the Sage of Six Paths away…

However, their Hyuga clan was a noble family of a thousand generations. They had to be gentlemen and maintain their decorum. They couldn't learn to be shameless like that guy who had lived for a thousand years.

Hagoromo's face was anxious. He glanced at the Hokage Tower, then at the unhappy Kaguya. Finally, his gaze wandered and stopped on a certain Zetsu. "She has created another Zetsu? You will all regret it!"

After saying this, Hagoromo didn't wait for anyone to reply. His figure gradually floated towards the sky, and after a while, he was gone.

The Zetsu: "…"

Why did this Hagoromo not have the slightest bit of the Sage of Six Paths' kind temperament? And why was his temper so bad!

What the Zetsu hadn't expected was that Kaguya's eyes were filled with tears, and her gaze towards it was filled with a faint accusation.

Neji Hyuga walked over and patted the Zetsu's shoulder. "Next time you see the Sage, you have to remember to open your mouth and drive him away, not just hide in fear…"

"…Isn't that a bit too strange…" the Zetsu said cautiously. "Can I know what the 'me' of this world has done in the past?"

"It's all just old, rotten history…"

Neji raised an eyebrow and glanced at the Uchiha clan. "He didn't do much, just instigated the Senju and Uchiha to fight for a thousand years, and tried every means to revive Ancestor Kaguya…"

The Zetsu's face was full of eagerness. "Can you tell me how this world's 'Mother' was revived? Can you tell me in detail?"

"I can't!"

Neji refused with a cold face and said matter-of-factly, "Because I don't know the details either. In any case, it wasn't a good thing!"

The Zetsu: "…"

Of course it knew it wasn't a good thing!

Otherwise, would it have had to plot in secret for a thousand years!

"And the progenitor of chakra of your world is not as reasonable, understanding, gentle, and amiable as our Ancestor…"

Neji looked at the Zetsu with a warning. His Byakugan actually gave off a deterring force, shocking it into not daring to make the slightest move!

The Zetsu's thoughts gradually sank…

The Hyuga of this world…

They're not right either!
