Chapter 31: Aftermath
In the vast desert, The Land of Wind, Sunagakure.
Seven days could be seen as neither long nor short, but for the villagers of Sunagakure, it had been the most extraordinary seven days of their lives.
Seven days ago, as they watched the ninjas depart from the village and witnessed the lockdown being implemented, an unsettling feeling began to grow among the ...

The retreat of the Konoha ninjas was carried out with military precision.
First, the Genin fell back, followed closely by the Chunin. The Jonin, with their heightened skills, were tasked with holding off the advancing Sunagakure ninjas to give the others time to retreat.
The last to cover the withdrawal were Jiraiya and Minato, ensuring the safety of t...

In the blink of an eye, Pakura's chakra surged with incredible force. A violent, howling wind whipped around her, and her body became engulfed in a vibrant, swirling blue chakra. As the chakra intensified, it shifted to a searing red, as if it had been set ablaze.
In that moment, Pakura transformed into a figure wreathed in flames, r...

Rasa was determined not to let Jiraiya enter Sage Mode, and the reason was simple—if Jiraiya activated it, Rasa would be completely outmatched and swiftly defeated.
Despite Rasa's position as Kazekage and his formidable power as a Kage-level ninja, along with the enhancements provided by the [Kāma Seal] that absorbed Shukaku’s chakra and Sta...

Rasa didn’t attempt to counter Jiraiya’s ninjutsu with his own. There was no point in doing so. Even though Jiraiya hadn’t activated Sage Mode, the amplification from the toad oil alone had made his Fire Release techniques several times stronger than normal. Going head-to-head with them would be a disastrous strategy.

Inside the Konohagakure camp, the atmosphere was a stark contrast to that of Sunagakure. While the latter’s camp might have seemed relatively calm, the mood in Konohagakure was tense. The pressure of fighting on three fronts weighed heavily on every Konoha shinobi, each one worried about the future of the village—especially with the decisive battle...

Rasa revealed everything without hesitation.
If he had been an ordinary ninja of Sunagakure, he would have concealed this power. But as the Kazekage, his role demanded that he confront the threats posed by Jiraiya and Minato. To face these two formidable adversaries, he had no choice but to strengthen the forces of his village.

Hiding behind Pakura, Michikawa immediately frowned. The reason he hadn’t attacked alongside her was simple: Rasa, the Kazekage, was not present, making it inappropriate to escalate the situation into open conflict.
Michikawa didn’t respond directly to Minato’s question. Instead, he shot back with a question of his own.
"Oh? Konoha’s ninja,...

Hoshigakure, the Star Ninja Village, is one of the lesser-known ninja villages in the world of Naruto, yet it is one that Rasa, the Kazekage, recalls with distinct clarity.
The reason for this is straightforward: it’s tied to the meteorite that once fell from the heavens, crashing onto the very land that would become Hoshigakure.

The next morning.
The Third Hokage rose from the cold leather sofa, lighting his pipe and exhaling smoke as he cleared his mind, preparing to properly handle the aftermath of the Uchiha massacre.

Upon arriving at the Uchiha Police Headquarters, Byakuya sensed the chaos unfolding inside—a battle completely one-sided. To be precise, it was the masked man, Obito, singlehandedly massacring the Uchiha police force.
