Chapter 676 Sasuke's Determination

"Narodo! Can you really save Naarodo?"

Sasuke couldn't help but feel excited.

No one wanted to save Naruto more than Sasuke, because Naruto almost risked his life to save him.

If there was no other way, Sasuke would rather exchange himself for Naruto!

Unfortunately, I can’t do it now.

And the person in front of him, although he doesn’t know who the other person is?

But if the other party is really a god who can rival the Sage of Six Paths, then it is indeed possible for him to match Isshiki and rescue Naruto.

of course.

Sasuke himself also wanted to rush over to rescue Naruto immediately. After all, he could still use the space-time eye technique of the Rinnegan to sneak into Isshiki's different space.

But he didn't know Jigen's condition, nor did he know that Jigen had exhausted his chakra and would need at least several days to recover.

I just thought that Cixian was still in that different space.

In that case, given my current condition, if I rush in rashly.

Not to mention saving Naruto, I'm afraid I'll get into trouble too.

He directly turned into the Calabash Brothers to save his grandfather.

If he could really rescue Naruto by himself, he wouldn't have escaped alone before.

"of course can."

Xia You gave an affirmative answer.

After all, Naruto is in his hands now. As long as Sasuke agrees to his request, he can release Naruto immediately.

Moreover, his request was different from the divine art that Kawaki asked Aida to use. It would neither tamper with anyone's memory, nor harm Konoha Village, nor would it hurt Boruto and the others...

It can be considered a generous gift to Konoha with no harm and only benefits.

"What does that require of me?"

Sasuke was already moved, but asked very calmly.

As a mature man, he had long understood that there was no love or help without reason in this world; since this immortal was willing to help, he must have some needs.

Just like the Six Paths Sage once needed them to seal Kaguya.

Otherwise, why would others help you?

It's not like when I was a kid during puberty and my hormones were bursting, I could do whatever I wanted just because I was handsome; after all, at that time I was just attracted by someone's beauty.

As for the immortal in front of me, I can't let myself sell my body, right?

Even if he really has to sell his body, Sasuke will do it for Naruto!

"It's simple. I need you..."

Xia You succinctly stated his need for Sasuke to take over Konoha and unify the entire ninja world.

For Naruto and Sasuke at this stage, there is no need to hide anything.

Instead of beating around the bush, it's better to be straightforward.

If you really don't agree, just find someone else. You don't need to hang yourself on a tree now.

After hearing this, Sasuke suddenly fell into hesitation.

"Do you want me to inherit the position of Hokage, and then lead Konoha Village to destroy all other countries and unify the world?"

Sasuke concluded with a frown, understanding it very clearly.

"Correct."

"As long as you are willing, I can help you rescue Naruto directly, and I can also help you deal with threats like Jigen."

Xia You confirmed it again, which showed his sincerity.

"You can easily deal with an enemy like Jixian?"

"nature."

Just a mere Cixian, there are at least nine ways to kill him as long as I want!

This is not a big deal for Xia You now.

The prerequisite is that Sasuke is willing to agree and become an agent of the binding forces to complete the task of unifying the No. 7 Ninja World.

As long as he agrees.

With the support of Xia You and several other parallel ninja worlds, all problems will no longer exist.

Even if Sasuke just shouts, a bunch of Uchiha ancestors and masters from the top ninja worlds can be pulled over to fight for him!

"I see!"

Sasuke suddenly realized and secretly marveled at the terrifying nature of this Yudao Sage.

In the eyes of him and Naruto, Jigen's powerful strength is almost as strong as that of Kaguya Ōtsutsuki whom he dealt with back then, and is even better in speed and strength!

Such a powerful enemy is not worth mentioning in the eyes of this immortal?

Fortunately, I didn't act rashly just now.

"But, I still have a question."

"You ask."

"I have no intention of replacing Naruto and inheriting the position of Hokage. Can I just destroy other countries and complete the unification? And then let Naruto continue to be Hokage?"

"No."

Xia You directly rejected it.

When you bind a force on your side, you must designate the current leader of the force, so that you can carry the leader of the force through time and space.

After the binding or unification is completed, it won’t matter.

Just like Tobirama Senju in the No. 2 Ninja World, there would be no problem passing the throne to the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen.

But the initial binding must be with the nominal and actual leader of the entire force.

In other words, Sasuke must first inherit the position of Hokage, take control of Konoha, and become the true leader of Konoha before he can pass the throne to others.

Of course, there is another tricky way: that is to let Sasuke leave Konoha first, then bind Sasuke personally, and then let Sasuke come back to annex Konoha Village and turn it into his own personal power. This is also feasible...

It's just a little more complicated.

If Sasuke betrays the village again, Naruto will probably become a shrew again.

There will definitely be a lot of trouble and fighting; and Sasuke himself is unlikely to agree to annex Konoha Village.

……

After receiving a negative answer, Sasuke hesitated again.

After weighing it for a while, he finally refused:

"I can take action and destroy all other countries and ninja villages!"

"But I cannot replace Naruto and take away his position as Hokage! And I am not cut out to be a Hokage..."

This is Sasuke's bottom line. He is not as foolish and kind as Naruto.

When Shippuden turned evil, he killed people decisively and mercilessly.

Therefore, he could do the dirty work and destroy all other countries and villages for Konoha, even if it would break up with Naruto.

As long as it can save Naruto and Konoha, Sasuke is willing to do it now!

He also has the ability and determination.

But he was also required to replace Naruto and become the Hokage of the entire Konoha Village, taking away Naruto's beliefs and dreams, and abandoning Naruto's desire for peace.

He was unwilling to do so anyway.

Just like you can go through fire and water for your brother, stick your neck out for him, and take the blame for him; but you can never sleep with your brother's woman on his behalf, or take away his identity and dreams.

After all, in Naruto's eyes, the entire Konoha Village is almost equivalent to Naruto's forbidden food.

Of course, if Sasuke said in front of Naruto that he also wanted to be Hokage, Naruto would most likely happily give up his position without saying a word.

But just because Naruto is willing to give in doesn't mean Sasuke will accept it.

Human beings are so awkward and contradictory most of the time...

"Just because you don't want to be Hokage, do you have to give up the chance to rescue Naruto?"

"It's not giving up. I just can't take away everything from Naruto when he's in trouble! He has already sacrificed too much for the Hokage and the entire village..."

Again.

Sasuke can commit crimes and kill people to save Naruto, but he cannot tarnish Naruto's identity and ideals in order to save Naruto.

"It's not that I'm taking it away. After you complete the unification, you can return it to Naruto."

Xia You gave a solution.

By then the world will have been unified, the matter will have been settled, and the rice will have been cooked;

Even if Naruto was unwilling, he couldn't change anything.

It would be possible to let him return to the position of Hokage at that time and continue to govern the entire Ninja World No. 7.

"Is this still possible?"

Sasuke was stunned. He didn't expect it could be done this way?

So what's the point of doing this?

As long as I am the Hokage at this stage and then abdicate and give the position to Naruto afterwards, doesn't it feel like taking off my pants to fart?

Or is there any special meaning?

"and many more……"

"You said that you will return the position to Naruto after the unification is completed; in other words, can't you rescue Naruto right now?"

The perceptive Sasuke discovered the key point and asked quickly.

"Yes."

"I can guarantee Naruto's safety, but I'm afraid it will be difficult to rescue him right away."

It’s not that Xia You doesn’t want to let Naruto out, but Naruto’s stubborn personality will only cause more trouble if he is released.

If Naruto is released now, with his powerful words, he will probably be able to convince Sasuke with just a few words, and thus change Sasuke's agreement to the treaty to unify the ninja world.

At that time, I'm afraid I will have no choice but to give up Konoha and choose other forces to support.

That would be an even more complete disaster for Konoha!

If it is not necessary, Xia You does not want to support other forces and destroy the Konoha Village here again...

So let Naruto rest for a while.

...

Upon hearing this, Sasuke frowned immediately, obviously this was different from the result he expected.

He thought that as long as he agreed to the immortal's request, he could rescue Naruto immediately.

In the end, he still had to wait a long time until he completed the unification before he could rescue Naruto.

This goes somewhat against Sasuke's original intention.

Since I can't see Naruto, I just want to work hard and destroy other countries and villages. Why does it feel a bit like I'm being used and deceived?

It's no wonder Sasuke was suspicious, after all, he was indeed much more cautious than before.

Moreover, his target from the beginning to the end has been Naruto. He will not rashly agree to any treaty without seeing Naruto!

Ever since.

Sasuke suppressed his doubts and asked tentatively:

"Excuse me, Immortal, can you give me some time to think about it?"

"I need to seek the opinions of other companions before making a decision."

Xia You smiled faintly, having seen through Sasuke's thoughts:

"You want to take this opportunity to try to save Naruto yourself? Or study how to defeat Jigen?"

Sasuke was not embarrassed when his thoughts were exposed, and frankly admitted:

"Yes, I want to try it first with my companions."

"Please forgive me, Immortal!"

Although the conditions offered by the Yudao Sage were excellent, he could not rescue Naruto immediately, and they also went against Naruto's beliefs and will.

Although Sasuke was tempted, he didn't dare to agree immediately.

So I decided to try it myself first to see if I could rescue Naruto first.

If it can be successful, there will be no need for external help...

"can."

"There is still time. Just try it yourself and see if you can save Naruto and defeat Jigen..."

"When you have thought about it, just reply to me."

Xia You didn't force it.

It's just a few days or weeks, I can still wait.

Wait a few days, wait until Naruto cannot be rescued, wait until the threat of Jigen and the Kara organization approaches, wait until you experience "a bag of rice" firsthand.

Sasuke and others will naturally change their minds.

After all, Sasuke is much easier to convince than Naruto, and he himself is not averse to necessary killing and unification.
