Chapter 579: Naruto: Are we digging up the First Hokage?
Chapter 579: Naruto: Are we digging up the First Hokage?
"Are we using this to dig?"
Naruto held the shovel in his hand, his expression filled with confusion. As a ninja, he had wielded kunai, shuriken, and even kitchen knives, but this was his first time using a shovel to dig someone up.
Looking at the shovel in his hand and then at Night City, who was already enthusiastically starting to dig on the other side, Naruto's expression became complicated.
The two of them were considered top-notch genius ninjas in Konoha, especially during the Great Ninja War, where Naruto Uzumaki had earned the illustrious title of "Golden Flash."
But now, with a shovel in hand, digging at someone's grave, if other ninja villages saw this, most would assume that Konoha's genius ninjas had some peculiar fetish.
"Naruto, hurry up and dig. Aren't you known as the fastest man? Don't slack off on me."
Hearing Night City's dissatisfied complaint, the gentle and kind-hearted Naruto could only pick up the Justice Spade and start digging, while asking, "We're ninjas, can't we just use ninjutsu?"
Hearing Naruto's complaint, Night City understood that the future Fourth Hokage found their current behavior too embarrassing.
"Using ninjutsu is also an option, but your adorable disciple is also in the cave. If he gets caught in the crossfire and dies, how will you explain it to Rin and the others?"
The shovel in our hands is no ordinary tool; it's called the Justice Spade—the Luoyang Spade!
Don't feel burdened. We're not digging up someone's grave; we're conducting an archaeological excavation to uncover the true secrets of the ninja world, understand?"
As Night City continued to persuade him, Naruto suddenly felt that what they were doing was quite noble. His movements with the shovel became much faster.
As the fastest man in the ninja world, once he overcame his psychological hurdle, Naruto's actions became more efficient.
Just as Night City and Naruto were enthusiastically digging, inside the cave, Uchiha Sasuke finally couldn't sit still any longer.
They had already started digging into his head, and if he didn't react soon, how would he, Uchiha Sasuke, save face in the future?
Should he rely on Kakuzu to fight? Aside from the fact that Kakuzu's combat power was practically useless, Sasuke needed him for many of his future plans.
Night City and Naruto continued to dig happily, and Naruto, experiencing archaeology for the first time, became more enthusiastic as he dug. After all, every handsome young man was born with a good shovel.
Just as Naruto was about to dig again, a vine suddenly burst out from the ground beneath him, quickly wrapping around his ankle and the shovel in his hand...
The sprouting seedling grew at an astonishing rate, quickly entwining itself around Night City and Naruto.
However, as the strongest ninjas of Konoha's younger generation, Night City and Naruto were not so easily caught. They simultaneously used the Instant Teleportation Technique, causing the vines to disappear from their original positions as they tried to entangle them.
"Shadow Clone Jutsu with Kunai!"
"Fire Style: Phoenix Fire Technique!"
Naruto, having leaped into the air to dodge, quickly drew several shuriken from his waist pouch and threw them. In midair, he formed hand seals, causing the thrown shuriken to split into two, then four.
In no time, the initially sparse shuriken multiplied in the air, raining down like a torrential downpour.
As the shuriken rained down, Night City exhaled balls of high-temperature flames, which attached themselves to the falling shuriken.
A rain of shuriken fell from the sky, transforming in the blink of an eye into a meteor shower of falling stars.
The shuriken, imbued with flames, struck the branches growing from the ground, first slicing through them at a visible speed, and then the flames attached to them instantly ignited the branches and leaves, turning the surroundings into a sea of fire.
"Night City, who is the one who took Obito away? That should have been a 'Wood Style' technique just now..."
Naruto, having landed on the ground, looked at the raging fire, but the vigorously growing tree beneath it still stood tall. His face immediately showed a look of astonishment and suspicion.
Previously, Night City had only told him that someone had taken Obito away and framed Rin, and that this person was a formidable opponent. However, he had never explicitly revealed who this person was.
Additionally, when Night City had asked him to use the Luoyang Spade earlier, he had mentioned that they were engaging in archaeology and seeking the truth of the ninja world.
The 'Wood Style' was a Bloodline Limit possessed only by the First Hokage; besides the First, Naruto had never heard of anyone else in the ninja world possessing the same Bloodline. Could it be that what they had just unearthed was...
As Naruto's mind wandered, he secretly wondered if they had committed some act of treason against their teacher. The next moment, a large swath of land was violently torn open by massive tree branches and vines, and a disheveled figure with emaciated limbs appeared before them.
The current Uchiha Madara, near death, had multiple tubes like IVs inserted into his body, keeping him alive. Although he was aged, the aura emanating from his body was still astonishingly powerful.
His black hair, hanging loosely, covered one of his eyes, but the other eye, a three-tomoe Sharingan, glared at them with intense anger.
When Night City saw Uchiha Madara emerge from the ground, he wasn't overly surprised, as he had already anticipated who it was and their current state.
On the other hand, when Naruto saw Uchiha Madara, his emotions were quite complex.
Initially, Naruto was astonished because he never expected that they would actually unearth the immortal Uchiha Madara with a shovel.
After the initial shock, Naruto became extremely worried. The immortal they had unearthed had long black hair and could use 'Wood Style', resembling at least sixty percent of the First Hokage, whom Naruto was familiar with.
After all, he and Night City were disciples of Jiraiya and Tsunade, respectively. If they had indeed dug up the grave of the First Hokage, Hashirama Senju, it would be a true act of betrayal against their teacher!
If they had dug up the First Hokage's grave, forget about becoming the Hokage in the future; the Third Hokage and Tsunade would not even spare his life, even if they gave him face as Naruto Uzumaki.
However, after Naruto carefully observed the situation, he was almost certain that the person was not the First Hokage, Hashirama Senju.
Because the person had the Sharingan, and even if the First Hokage was a pervert... no, even if he was extremely eccentric, he wouldn't tattoo his face on his chest!
So, the question now was, who was this person who possessed the Sharingan, could use Wood Style, and appeared to be nearly a hundred years old?
