Chapter 763 Ten Ninjas from Another World (5k Subscription Request)

“What kind of Ninja am I in another world?” Kankuro asked Sasori out of curiosity on the way to the Third Unit.

Now that four other parallel world Ninja had been discovered one after another, there was no longer any need to question whether parallel worlds existed.

“Kankuro, huh? I don’t think I’ve heard that name before. He’s probably still in the Ninja Academy,” Sasori replied after thinking for a moment.

The timelines of their two worlds were not quite the same; Uzumaki Naruto’s side was about a decade or so ahead.

Kankuro quickly understood this point and couldn’t help but show a look of regret.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

Just then, a sudden whooshing sound rang out, and a large number of white bone bullets suddenly shot towards Sasori and the Surprise Attack Unit.

Whoosh!

Sasori immediately dodged and took out a puppet from a scroll.

The next moment, three figures walked out from the dense forest.

One person wore a breathing mask and a combat uniform in the style of a Rain Ninja, looking at Sasori and the others expressionlessly.

One person wore a black robe, was short and slightly hunched, and showed a shocked expression upon seeing Sasori.

The last person had white hair, a calm expression, and two red dots between his brows.

“It’s Chiyo, Hanzou, and Kimimaro!” Kankuro instantly recognized all three, and his expression turned serious.

Chiyo, naturally, needed no introduction; she was a strong figure from his own Village, and he was more than familiar with her.

Hanzou was a famous Ninja in the Ninja World during his lifetime, with considerable strength.

And Kimimaro was no pushover either; even Gaara was almost defeated by him back then.

Boom!

Just as Sasori and the Surprise Attack Unit were about to act, a giant Salamander suddenly burst out from underground, spewing a large amount of purple poisonous mist.

“Damn it, it’s the Salamander’s poisonous mist! Everyone, scatter!” Kankuro’s face instantly changed drastically; he hadn’t expected Hanzou to have already summoned his Nin-Beast and hidden it underground.

However, Kankuro himself knew it was already too late.

Their speed could not possibly be faster than the spread of the poisonous mist.

The Ninja of the Surprise Attack Unit began to fall to the ground one after another, including their captain, Kankuro.

“Catch!” At this moment, Kankuro suddenly heard Sasori’s voice, followed by a pill that shot towards him.

In this situation, no explanation was needed. Kankuro immediately used his remaining strength to catch the pill, then swallowed it in one gulp, instantly feeling the numbness in his body disappear.

“He broke my poison so quickly.” Hanzou was somewhat surprised.

“After all, this is my grandson, the old man with a respirator,” Chiyo said with some pride.

Although she didn’t know how Sasori had come back to life, Sasori was indeed alive and well in front of her, not in an Edo Tensei state.

“Puppet old hag, what are you being so proud of? You’re dead, just like me.” Hanzou retorted expressionlessly.

“Chiyo, he’s not Sasori, he’s Sasori from another world.” Kankuro released his puppet and, seeing Chiyo mistake him, explained.

“Kankuro, what are you talking about?” Chiyo asked with a puzzled expression while, under Kabuto’s control, she shot Chakra threads at the Ninja of the Surprise Attack Unit.

Hanzou, meanwhile, swung his scythe and charged towards the Surprise Attack Unit.

Kimimaro extended giant bone spikes from his body and attacked the Surprise Attack Unit.

Kankuro instantly felt immense pressure and was unable to answer Chiyo’s question.

“It’s exactly what it sounds like. I am not the Sasori you know, nor am I your grandson.” Sasori replied to Chiyo while controlling his puppet to block the attacks.

Chiyo was utterly stunned, not expecting such a strange thing to happen.

“Dead Bone Pulse: Dance of the Seedling Fern!” Kabuto was solely focused on capturing Sasori. He worried that dragging it out too long would alert the Allied Shinobi Forces to their situation, so he directly controlled Kimimaro to go all out, entering his Cursed Seal Level Two state.

In his Cursed Seal Level Two state, Kimimaro’s skin turned brownish-black, black patterns appeared on his face, and a tail grew from his back, making him look like a monster.

Kimimaro unleashed his Chakra and used Dead Bone Pulse, causing sharp bone spikes to rapidly emerge from the ground, all aiming at Sasori and the trapped Deidara.

Kabuto’s targets were only Sasori and Deidara.

Sasori could give him the secret of the parallel world, while Deidara was one of the very few who would willingly fight and didn’t need his control.

As for Kankuro and the others, Kabuto didn’t care about them; whether Ninja of that level lived or died wouldn’t affect the overall battle.

“So it’s Dead Bone Pulse.” Sasori recognized Kimimaro’s Bloodline Limit, his fingers dancing rapidly as he controlled the iron sand, making himself and the puppet containing Deidara fly into the air.

“Magnet Release: Iron Sand Great Funeral!” Sasori calmly had the puppet release its Magnet Release ultimate move, burying and sealing Kimimaro with a large amount of iron sand.

Not long after, the Fifth Unit led by Mifune arrived as reinforcements.

Otherworld Ninja were too special, and Sasori was alone, in the weak Surprise Attack Unit.

Therefore, Nara Shikaku guessed that the enemy might have ideas about Sasori and had already sent a portion of the Fifth Unit to rendezvous.

As expected, Kabuto sent out three powerful Edo Tensei Ninja to try and intercept them.

Sasori was already powerful, and with the help of the Fifth Unit, he sealed Kimimaro with little effort.

Hanzou, in his battle with Mifune, regained his conviction and, by sheer will, broke free from control, his soul ascending to heaven.

For some unknown reason, as Hanzou’s soul returned to the Pure Land, he suddenly saw several scenes.

He saw a Land of Rain far more prosperous than he remembered.

That Land of Rain had no war, was peaceful and prosperous, like a dream.

“If it’s a dream, then this is truly a beautiful dream.” Hanzou sighed, laughing at himself.

Having only found himself after death, he didn’t even have the right to live in that happy country.

With Kimimaro sealed and Hanzou voluntarily releasing his Edo Tensei, only Chiyo remained on the battlefield.

It wasn’t that Chiyo was the strongest; on the contrary, the Edo Tensei Chiyo was the weakest of the three.

Most of Chiyo’s strength lay in her puppets, and as an Edo Tensei, she had no puppets, making her far weaker than when she was alive.

Therefore, the least dangerous Chiyo was left for last.

“Sasori, may I ask, in your world, is ‘I’ doing well?” Chiyo, her body confined by iron sand, thought for a moment and asked.

It seemed like she was asking about her own situation, but in essence, she was asking about Sasori’s situation.

If it was the same as her world, then “Chiyo’s” situation certainly wouldn’t be much better.

“She’s doing very well. She’s the Fifth Kazekage of Sunagakure now,” Sasori replied with a faint smile.

Hearing this answer, Chiyo showed a genuine smile.

“She’s so inconsiderate of an old lady. To still choose ‘me’ as Kazekage at such an old age,” Chiyo grumbled, but her body rapidly turned white, as if she was content and about to dissipate on her own.

Since “she” still had the inclination to be the Fifth Kazekage, and Sasori had said it with a smile, then the grandmother-grandson relationship certainly wouldn’t be bad, at least not to the point of mutual slaughter.

“What about Rasa and Gaara?” Chiyo asked casually.

“Rasa? He’s living a life in Six Paths City where people bring him meals every day. Gaara is just a little kid of a few years old,” Sasori replied.

Chiyo disappeared before everyone’s eyes before she could reply.

Kankuro’s expression was subtle; the Fourth Kazekage of the other world sounded like he was in prison.

No matter how he thought about it, it seemed like a very bad thing, so he didn’t ask for details and focused on hurrying along.

By the time Sasori arrived at the Third Unit, they had just finished a battle and were resting on the spot.

“Sasori!” The moment he saw Sasori, Kakashi Hatake subconsciously reached into his Ninja tool pouch, but seeing the Allied Shinobi Forces Ninja beside Sasori, he immediately remembered that this was Sasori from another world, not the rogue Ninja Sasori from their world.

“Hello, Kakashi. Is there something wrong with your eye? Do you want me to modify it for you? It’s free.” Sasori didn’t go to Might Guy’s side but greeted Kakashi Hatake, looking with interest at the eye covered by Kakashi Hatake’s forehead protector.

“Thank you, but no. There’s nothing wrong with my eye.” Kakashi moved his forehead protector, revealing his covered Sharingan, and politely declined.

“Could it be that the other me and Sasori have a very good relationship?” Kakashi speculated in his mind.

Sasori didn’t go to his teammate Might Guy first but instead came to talk to him, even offering to perform surgery for free. This was clearly not how one treated a stranger.

“So it’s a Sharingan.” Sasori looked regretful, politely greeted Might Guy, and began to rest.

Since crossing over, he had either been fighting or traveling, which had consumed a lot of his energy.

Kankuro sat next to Sasori, occasionally asking about things related to the parallel world.

Kakashi Hatake thought for a moment, then sat down next to Might Guy.

He wanted to understand about parallel worlds.

More accurately, he wanted to understand about world-hopping.

Naruto’s previous world-hop could be considered a coincidence, but this time, the other side brought so many Ninja with them, clearly indicating they had mastered some method of world-hopping.

To be honest, Kakashi Hatake was a little worried.

Although Muzuki and his group were here to help this time, it didn’t mean the two worlds could always coexist peacefully. Muzuki and his group being willing to help only showed that they were good people.

Even between countries, peace was difficult to maintain; when the level ascended to worlds, the difficulty multiplied.

Kakashi didn’t want the Shinobi World War to become double the intensity, turning into a war between two worlds.

“Guy, how did you cross over to our world?”

Kakashi asked directly.

He observed that the Might Guy from both worlds had essentially the same personality, so he didn’t beat around the bush.

If Might Guy was willing to talk, he would certainly answer; beating around the bush might lead to Might Guy misunderstanding.

“World-hopping, huh? First, there was a green light, then a purple light, and then, whoosh, we crossed over.”

Might Guy answered earnestly.

Kakashi: …

He only considered the personality, forgetting that Might Guy’s brain was only filled with muscles.

“Don’t make it hard for him. No one knows about such things. Only Leader Mu Yue possesses the power to bring people across worlds.”

Sasori said with a faint smile.

“It’s an individual’s power?”

Kakashi showed a surprised expression.

How powerful must one be to achieve such an incredible feat as world-hopping?

Kakashi breathed a sigh of relief.

Although he didn’t know Muzuki, based on Naruto’s experience, he was a genuinely good person.

“Teacher Kai, you’re so strong! How do you usually train?”

Lee took out a few rice balls, handed one to Might Guy, and asked curiously.

“It’s nothing special, really.”

Might Guy scratched his head and described his daily training routine.

“That’s a terrifying amount of training! Teacher Kai, how do you manage it? Is your body alright?”

Lee’s face was filled with shock.

Even Might Guy showed surprise.

They originally thought they, master and student, were training maniacs, but they never expected Might Guy to be even more insane than them.

“Don’t try to emulate me. I have a secret training medicine given by Teacher Muzuki, and I’ve been practicing a Breathing Technique for a long time, so my body’s recovery ability is very strong.”

Might Guy explained.

He could train like this because he had an advantage: one was the powerful effect of Muzuki’s secret training medicine, so he didn’t need to worry about over-exercising hurting his body, and the other was the powerful effect of Rock Breathing.

“Teacher Kai, you’re truly amazing! Even if your body can handle it, being able to complete so much training is still incredible.”

Lee teared up, moved by Might Guy’s unwavering perseverance.

“Lee, we must learn from him too, and push ourselves to our limits as much as possible.”

Might Guy was also moved, shedding tears of emotion just like Lee.

“This Ninja named Muzuki is truly remarkable.”

Kakashi sighed in his heart.

The reason Might Guy could possess such formidable strength at seventeen was clearly inseparable from Muzuki’s guidance.

He didn’t know the specifics of Might Guy’s Breathing Technique, but he understood Uzumaki Naruto’s Yang Release Breathing very well.

Yang Release Breathing could not only heal without hand seals but also strengthen the body using Yang Release Chakra, placing it among the top-tier secret techniques he had ever seen.

“Did I see that right? It’s Jiraiya-sama!”

A Konoha Ninja was resting on the ground when he suddenly saw a white-haired figure. Once he clearly saw the white-haired Ninja’s face, he instantly shouted in disbelief.

The Konoha Ninja, unaware of the otherworldy Ninja, seemed to stand up and assume a fighting stance.

It was well-known that Jiraiya had died, so the one who appeared must be an enemy resurrected by Edo Tensei.

“Jiraiya, it seems you’re not very popular.”

Orochimaru mocked him.

“Everyone, be careful! It’s the S-rank Missing-Nin Orochimaru and Kakuzu!”

When the Konoha Ninja saw Orochimaru, their scalps tingled even more, and they all pulled out their weapons.

“Hahaha, that’s hilarious, Missing-Nin Orochimaru.”

Jiraiya couldn’t help but burst into laughter, patting Orochimaru on the shoulder.

Orochimaru was expressionless, not too surprised.

If it weren’t for Muzuki, his ultimate fate would most likely have been to defect.

And in Uzumaki Naruto’s world, there was no Muzuki, so him becoming a Missing-Nin was not strange at all.

“Everyone, don’t panic. These three are powerful individuals from our Allied Shinobi Forces, not enemies.”

Kakashi quickly stepped forward and said.

With the unit commander speaking, the Ninja, though not entirely understanding, still put down their weapons and continued to rest.

“Leader Kakuzu, where did you land when you crossed over? Do you have any news of Nagato and the others?”

Sasori stood up and walked to Kakuzu’s side, asking.

“Jiraiya, Orochimaru, and I crossed over to the seaside.”

Kakuzu replied.

“We also have no news of Nagato and the others. They might not have arrived in this world yet, or they might be somewhere far away.”

“I see.”

Sasori nodded.

He saw Might Guy was alone, so he thought everyone had scattered, but he didn’t expect Kakuzu and the others to arrive at one place as a group of three.

“Sasori, you don’t need to worry. With Nagato’s strength, the only one in the entire world who could threaten him is probably Uchiha Madara.”

Kakuzu said with a smile.

Nagato possessed the Rinnegan and had also mastered the Breathing Technique Sage Mode, making him the strongest person under Muzuki.

“It’s not that I’m worried; I was just asking. After all, Leader Mu Yue said there wouldn’t be a big problem.”

Sasori shook his head.

Since there was no news of their other companions for the time being, the three of them also rested with the Third Unit.

It was wartime, and the battlefield was the center of the Ninja World.

Even if Nagato and his group crossed over outside the battlefield, they would eventually make their way to it. It was better to wait for news on the battlefield than to wander aimlessly.

“It seems I did other things in this world besides defecting.”

Orochimaru noticed the wary gazes of many Konoha Ninja.

It was as if Orochimaru’s face alone was enough for them to be constantly on guard.

“Kakashi, you’re doing well, still a unit commander of the Allied Shinobi Forces. But what happened to your eye?”

Jiraiya greeted Kakashi.

“Don’t tell me everyone who recognizes ‘me’ over there is going to ask the same question.”

Kakashi complained internally, then once again moved his forehead protector to explain.

“You transplanted a Sharingan, and because you don’t have the Uchiha Clan’s bloodline, you can’t deactivate it? That must be quite tiring.”

Jiraiya stroked his chin, analyzing.

The Sharingan consumed a lot of Chakra. Even Uchiha Clan Ninja didn’t maintain their Sharingan at all times during battle.

And Kakashi had to keep his Sharingan activated all day, as if his internal Chakra system had a large hole, constantly leaking.

“Thank you for your concern. It’s not much once you get used to it.”

Kakashi shook his head slightly.

He knew how much of a burden the Sharingan brought him, but Kamui raised his potential.

Moreover, this was a Jonin gift from his closest friend.

No matter how great the burden, Kakashi Hatake would never abandon it. He would watch over this world for Obito until he died.

Early the next morning, at dawn, an intelligence Ninja suddenly ran urgently to Kakashi, reporting:

“Headquarters has discovered the traces of otherworldy Ninja! This time, there are five of them!”

“Who are they?”

Jiraiya asked curiously.

There were only eleven of them who crossed over in total. If they found five more, then only one person would be left.

“They are Nagato, Kakashi Hatake, Uchiha Obito, Uchiha Shisui, and Rin Nohara.”

The intelligence Ninja reported quickly.

Hearing these familiar names, Kakashi Hatake’s mood became somewhat heavy.

He once had companions too, but because of his incompetence, his Rin Nohara and Obito had died.

“So, only Muzuki is left, huh?”

Jiraiya scratched his head, not paying much attention.

Muzuki was the least of their worries, after all, he was the man who killed Uchiha Madara and easily defeated the Allied Shinobi Forces of the Four Great Shinobi Villages.

“They are all with Naruto and are heading to the battlefield!”

The intelligence Ninja continued to report.
