Chapter 313: The Decision of the Five Kage from Those Years Was Not Wrong...
After Yuyi Xuan Yue finished greeting everyone, only Hashirama Senju didn't sense anything amiss, while the other four Kage's faces darkened.
There was no need for an outsider to explain the situation in their villages after being resurrected through Impure World Reincarnation.
This was bragging!
This was absolutely bragging!
Right?!
This damn Yuyi Xuan Yue, it was just that he had been reborn, that he possessed a youthful and energetic body, and that...
Alright.
The First Kage, irritated by Yuyi Xuan Yue's words, had to admit that they were feeling a bit jealous.
They were all contemporaries, and they had been the victors of the God's Valley Battle.
But in the blink of an eye, years later, Yuyi Xuan Yue suddenly reappeared and achieved unimaginable accomplishments.
The First Tsuchikage, Ishi, who usually kept his emotions in check, was a bit flustered at this moment.
He took a deep breath and glared at Yuyi Xuan Yue, saying, "Yuyi Xuan Yue, don't get too cocky! You should have learned your lesson and lived out the rest of your life in peace without disturbing others. Now you're back to stir up trouble in the ninja world. If there was a first God's Valley Battle, there can be a second one too!"
Hearing this, Yuyi Xuan Yue glanced at the many ninjas lying on the ground nearby, groaning and receiving treatment, and smiled slightly, "As you said, I have learned my lesson. Just like after the Five Kage Assembly, the God's Valley Battle broke out. To ensure my peace and tranquility in the future and to eliminate any more troubles, I've decided to get rid of all of you unstable factors first."
The First Five Kage fell silent.
During the first Five Kage Assembly, they had considered Yuyi Xuan Yue, who was powerful and independent of the ninja village system, as an unstable factor that could threaten the future peace of the ninja world. Thus, they decided to execute a beheading operation, which led to the God's Valley Battle.
But did the ninja world achieve peace afterward? Hashirama Senju, already aware of the three Great Ninja Wars that would occur, sighed deeply and was about to admit their mistake to Yuyi Xuan Yue.
The First Raikage, A, with a cold face, was the first to conclude, "It seems that the decision made by the Five Kage back then was correct."
The First Kazekage, Leto, followed, "Yes! Yuyi Xuan Yue, your ambition to overthrow the world and destroy the entire ninja world has been fully exposed. If we hadn't stopped you in time, I'm afraid this great war would have broken out decades earlier!"
The First Mizukage, White Lotus, summarized, "Yuyi Xuan Yue, just as we judged, you are the source of chaos!"
Regardless of whether the decision was right or wrong, as it had been discussed at the Five Kage Assembly and officially recorded and executed, even if it was wrong, the Five Kage had to acknowledge it as correct.
This was not only related to the reputation of the Five Kage but also to the righteousness of the Five Great Ninja Villages.
Even if the ninja world was plagued by constant strife and lacked peace afterward, the "fact" that Yuyi Xuan Yue disrupted peace remained unchanged.
Moreover, the current Yuyi Xuan Yue had already been framed as the ultimate villain trying to overthrow the ninja world.
So, there was no need to change that narrative.
Tobirama Senju reached out and stopped his brother, shaking his head slightly.
Some things, once done, had to be seen through to the end.
Hearing the words of his old friends, Yuyi Xuan Yue's expression remained unchanged, "I knew you would say that."
This was the way of the Kage and the ninja world, wasn't it? "History is written by the victors."
Yuyi Xuan Yue looked at the Kage and said calmly.
He had understood this a long time ago.
And now, he was prepared to act on it.
"You will be forever banished to the underworld, never again seeing a glimmer of light. As for me, I will dwell in the heavens, forever looking down upon this land beneath my feet."
"How arrogant!"
Tsunade, who had remained silent until now, could no longer hold back.
Clenching her fists, she proclaimed loudly, "Yuyi Xuan Yue! Your ambitions will not come to fruition! The ninjas will not allow it! The samurai will not permit it! The people will not accept it! This world belongs to everyone, not just you!"
"A loud voice does not equate to being right."
Yuyi Xuan Yue finally turned to look at Tsunade, shaking his head with amusement.
"Since when have the five great ninja villages represented all the people? Tsunade, when you speak for them, have you ever asked for their opinions?"
Tsunade paused, gritting her teeth as she replied, "At the very least, we won't destroy the world like you plan to!"
"Destroy the world? You're referring to the prophecy of the Great Toad Sage, aren't you? I've never once said that I intend to destroy the world. That old toad dreamed a fragment of the future and assumed that was how it would play out. How pathetic."
Yuyi Xuan Yue found the situation even more amusing.
"You're no different. Based on the prophecy of a deceased toad, you've mobilized a grand war, and yet you know nothing. How pitiful you all are."
"Then why did you create the Ten-Tails?" Nidaime Hokage, Tobirama Senju, asked.
"Why? Why do ninjas cultivate chakra?"
Yuyi Xuan Yue turned to Tobirama,
"Don't give me some lofty answer about protecting your family, comrades, village, or striving for peace."
Tobirama instantly understood Yuyi Xuan Yue's implication and provided the answer:
"To become stronger."
Yuyi Xuan Yue nodded.
That was the reason.
Without the interference of the Great Toad Sage and the five Kage, he had already become the Jinchuriki of the Ten-Tails, collecting the chakra of the ninja world and perfecting his Kekkei Mora, all without creating any waves.
Scenes of the Ten-Tails wreaking havoc and destroying the world, as depicted in the Fourth Great Ninja War, would never come to pass.
As for the prophesized return of Kaguya Otsutsuki, Yuyi Xuan Yue, who would have reached the level of the Six Paths by then, would be more than capable of stopping her.
The ninja world would not revert to its state a millennium ago, and life would go on as it always had.
However, there would always be a group of self-proclaimed champions of justice coming to stir up trouble.
Especially the Great Toad Sage.
If you claim to have had a prophetic dream, why not dream a little further and see the outcome of your battle with Kaguya Otsutsuki?
But no, you only foresaw her descent.
This made you anxious and worried, and so you felt compelled to act.
That was why Yuyi Xuan Yue found the Great Toad Sage pathetic.
He could have simply lived out his life, but instead, he brought about his own demise.
And the same could be said for those standing before him now.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
More and more sounds of tearing through the air rang out.
Taking advantage of Yuyi Xuan Yue's conversation with the Kage, a group of famous Edo Tensei ninjas, though not on the level of the five Kage, had arrived and joined the Kage's camp.
Yuyi Xuan Yue noticed their arrival but paid them no heed.
"Now that everyone is here,"
"It's time to send you all back to where you came from."
After a casual swipe of his finger across the Zero Ring, Yuyi Xuan Yue gestured towards the group before him, his expression unchanged.
He was in a hurry.
So, the quicker this was done, the better.
