Apocalypse Naruto World chapter 46-50 (Patreon)

Disclaimer: all the character’s in the story that have any sexual interaction are 18 years or older. All the forced situations that appear are all just an act by the protagonist to fool the enemies and gain benefits.

Chapter 46: Shikaku’s thoughts on the mastermind

Even though all of them are ordinary human or Genin level, the fight can easily alert third Hokage and Danzo.

That might result in a hard battle and might even threaten the lives of Naruto and Sasuke.

So Kakashi did not do anything and returned back.

With his confirmation the faction that is still loyal to forth Hokage and received help from him decided to over through third Hokage.

This is not the only reason as they did not like the oppression from the third Hokage these days.

Because of giving out all their food many clans lost some of their strength.

No one is an idiot.

After understanding and analyzing the rules of survival points for 3 days they easily understood that having good food, water and other supplies can increased the number of survival points awarded.

Shikaku Nara understands the rules quickly.

Also he observed that there are many holes in the matter related to echo bombs and their origin is actually former village elder Homura, to be precise it was his grandson Rito.

That is not all he understood that Rito should have the ability to see future or at least forecast the future to some extent.

This point was analyzed through the factors and information he received on Rito.

After Kakashi spoke to him before and cooperated so well with Rito to stage the show has already given him enough information about what is happening.

Well he is the only one that can see through all of this while others are still patching up bits and pieces.

After he saw through these things Kakashi came to inform them about the situation of Naruto and Sasuke.

Also he did not reveal anything about Rito till now.

All he said is that he is cooperating with Homura that informed him of the truth.

Actually Shikaku also thought that it is Homura that wanted to get back to the village head position.

But this is not possible in the current situation.

Also there is only one descendent for Homura and they did not have any backing.

In this kind of situation he would not dare to take this dangerous step.

There is still that can figure out the situation and sniff out their plans.

Don’t thing that hidden leaf village only has morons.

Many people can see the changes but they are currently facing the strange situation and many strange incidents.

They did not have a choice but to wait for the winning side to through the olive branch or to kill the winner to share the benefits.

They have enough supplies to sit and wait.

The supplies came from man power and their conservative consumption.

So they are not like the other civilians.

Also they improved a little and immediately searched for the food and water sources with cooperative relationships with other clans close to them.

For example the Ino-Shika-Cho clans all are in strong cooperative relationship.

Even Hatake clan is doing their best in this matter.

That is the reason why the village was able to maintain peace and tranquility even after the apocalyptic situations appeared for so long.

It has nothing to do with third Hokage or Danzo.

Also the people did their best to stay away from the Shimura clan and Sarutobi clan so that they would not offend the leading group right now.

But the current situation is beyond their limit to keep calm.

At the same time there is only one way out of this situation.

The seemingly small incident where Hiashi Hyuga using his daughters blood to improve his bloodline can be used.

It can be used to make him scapegoat and ease off the people of the village there is only Hiashi Hyuga.

But this will also make third Hokage and Danzo to take action causing some big movements.

As for Hinata’s current location she should be living in Homura’s house right now.

This is his guess.

If this guess is true then the master mind behind all the incidents should be the grandson of Homura that is Rito.

Shikaku did not underestimate Rito because of the current age of Rito.

The best example to see about this matter is his son Shikamaru.

Shikamaru is very intelligent for his age and something like can happen to other families.

Geniuses are everywhere in the hidden leaf village.

So what he should do next is to speak with Rito and decided on what to do next.

That is he has to decide on who he and his supporting clans should support in the future.

After Kakashi told him about the situation he immediately decided to go to Homura's house to talk with the real mastermind.

On the other hand Hyuga clan is boiling.

The information that the children of the clan are being used for blood drawing has caused large scale unrest.

But it was simply sealed off by the caged bird seal on their foreheads.

Well there is main family and elders but they are also powerless.

Now they have to take back Hinata to ease of the situation from the offenders outside.

On the other hand, Sarutobi clan was directly boycotted.

Many people witnessed that the people of Sarutobi clan and Shimura clan has used them as meat shields during the monster beast tide.

On the other hand the reputation of third Hokage has reached all time low because of the rumor that he peeks at other people’s woman using some technique.

This fire has reached its peak and currently all the men and woman in the village are avoiding them completely.

There are a few people that supported fourth Hokage before or gained favor from him has met in secret to discuss about Naruto.

There is also Sasuke in captive but no one cared about him.

Just like this the undercurrents in the hidden leaf are set in motion.

There is only one person that is not implicated with the atrocities he did.

That is Danzo and his roots hiding happily………

Chapter 47: third Hokage’s turmoil and Shikaku came to meet

There is only one person that is not implicated with the atrocities he did.

That is Danzo and his roots hiding happily.

Well they are not focused right now by normal people because there is no one in either of Senju clan or Uchiha clan to fight back.

There is only one person that is focusing on them that is the third Hokage.

He has heard the rumor and he was sure that Danzo is capable of doing.

Rito specifically sent a rumor to third Hokage sawing that Danzo has the eyes of Uchiha Shisui.

This broke the thoughts of third Hokage that is focusing on other rumors about him.

That is the rumor saying that he is peeking on other women.

This rumor would only cause his reputation to be damage.

But if he did not act properly on Danzo and put him back on his place, then the consequence would be his life.

He doesn’t want to die right now.

So he directly focused on Danzo and the roots.

That is the reason why he did not come out these days to speak about the rumors of give an explanation.

On the other hand Hyuga clan’s rebellion was controlled by the caged bird seal.

Just like that the hidden leaf village became a powder keg that would burst out at any time.

The Anbu is not responding properly to the summons of the third Hokage.

The reason for this is also the rumors that are spreading.

Other than that Kakashi also confirmed the situation about Naruto.

They are asking to see the situation of Naruto.

Third Hokage cannot reveal the current situation of Naruto.

It would directly push him to the fire pit.

At the same time he sent his people from the Sarutobi clan to take care of Naruto and nourish him back to health as quickly as possible.

……………..

While all these things are happening Shikaku came to the house of Homura.

He did not come in the broad day light.

Ino-Shika-Cho should be the three clans that unconditionally support the Sarutobi clan or the third Hokage.

So their movements are most important in these sensitive times.

He cannot just go around as he like being the brain of the alliance of the three clans.

So he has to sneak around to this place silently.

After coming to Homura’s house he received a cup of tea by Ayame and Homura is sitting in front of him.

Rito was also there but he is hiding on the side looking at the situation.

Shikaku started to speak about his analysis and finally came to the conclusion that it was all planned by Rito.

Homura was really amazed by Shikaku but he was more amazed by his grandson that predicted all these situations including Shikaku coming here to speak.

“Rito, it seems like your predictions are right.”

Homura said looking to his right.

Immediately Rito transformed back into his real appearance and appeared in front of Shikaku and spoke.

“It is nice to meet you in person Shikaku san.

May I know the purpose of your visit?

Is it Kakashi san telling you about the incidents before?

Or

Do you want to know about the current situation?”

Rito asked knowingly.

Shikaku know that Rito did not trust him and he has to prove that he is on Kakashi’s side.

But how to prove it is the actual question.

So Rito has to give him a way out.

Rito smiled at him and said.

“Shikaku san, if you want to ask about Naruto being

You should be present during the night of decision making about the 9 tails incident.

Don’t you think that the actions of third Hokage and Danzo blocking the Uchiha clan instead of supporting the fourth Hokage strange.

From start to finish they did not take a proper action.

Third Hokage also knows that ghoul seal.

Instead of fourth Hokage he can also use the ghoul seal to seal the 9 tails to save the village.

Think about who you should trust.

Kakashi san has already made his choice.

You should also make your choice.

I know that you can see the turmoil between Danzo and the third Hokage these days.

It will not be long before they fight each other and there will be only one person standing.

You have to choose either of them or you can choose to join the third party.

You can think about the things and give your answer.

You can go back and discuss with the clans that depend on you as the think tank.

But don’t take too much time as there things are getting heated up.

Anything can happen.”

After Rito said this Homura gave some pleasant words and sent Shikaku back.

What Rito said is very simply.

Third Hokage would not treat you well just because you stand on his side.

He is going to face a series fight with Danzo soon.

If you don’t want to be implicated then you can choose the third group.

Here you can stand as the fisherman and find the right opportunity to cease the control of the village.

There are also clans behind you and you have to make a choice for them too.

So go back and discuss first and tell me your choice after you come back.

This is all Rito said to him.

It is not a threat or a warning.

It is a simple suggestion saying that you should make your choice.

This is also his chance to prove his trust.

If he chooses to follow Rito he would inform Kakashi first and understand their plan and follow along.

The choice of cooperation is the proof of trust that Rito wanted from him.

What Kakashi wanted to do is to save Naruto.

This is also their duty to save Naruto if he is really the son of the forth Hokage.

They have received favors from fourth Hokage before and they did not return them as fourth Hokage…….

Chapter 48: sudden change of events

This is also their duty to save Naruto if he is really the son of the forth Hokage.

They have received favors from fourth Hokage before and they did not return them as fourth Hokage died and they don’t know that he had a son.

With their continuous pressure third Hokage sent his people to recover Naruto to his former self and then return him after erasing his memories.

They can do that with small hypnosis.

People like Naruto are complete stupid and simple minded.

So hypnosis works well on them and has longer effects.

Even without hypnosis third Hokage can simply push the blame to Danzo with a few words.

Naruto would still believe third Hokage’s words like a sheep that trust the butcher.

That is how stupid Naruto is.

So this thing is easily handled by third Hokage.

On the other hand he is taking precautions on dealing with Danzo.

Shikaku was called by third Hokage that did not know that Shikaku is having second thoughts to jump ship.

So he came here under the command of third Hokage to discuss with about the matter on how to deal with Danzo that has Shisui’s eye.

Shikaku was present when the decision to destroy the Uchiha clan.

So he knows the ability of the Mangekyō Sharingan of the Shisui Uchiha.

He immediately understood what is going on.

At the same time he was really terrified by the people that he underestimated.

He also understood the information on Danzo that third Hokage found.

He wanted to get this information to Rito and gain his trust.

After discussing with third Hokage, Shikaku left here and went to meet with Rito.

…………..

Hinata woke up that day after Rito took her back to his home along with Tenten.

By the time she woke up Tenten has already left back to her house while Kurenai and Anko returned to Rito’s home.

Rito told Kurenai that she has to take care of Hinata for the time being.

Also Rito asked if Kurenai wanted to move to this house.

The current house of Rito was a four story building.

So there are plenty of rooms for people to stay.

But Kurenai refused to stay.

As for Hinata, Rito explained the current situation about Hiashi Hyuga that is bulling her and her sister.

Rito sincerely told her that he wanted to save her so he took action of taking her when she was abandoned by her father before.

Now she can stay with her teacher Kurenai and learn some ninjutsu.

As for her sister Rito would save her soon.

Homura looked at Hinata that Rito is paying special attention to.

It is just like how his grandson is looking at Karin.

He immediately understood that his son has a crush on Hinata and Karin.

There is also Tenten that he saved before.

His grandfather knows that polygamy is possible in this world.

Those lords and nobles have multiple wives.

It is just that ninja did not have enough time to take care of too many wives.

So most of the time, they will only have one woman in their life.

If his grandson is capable in dealing with other people and establish his strength to safeguard those women,

As his grandfather he was willing to let his grandson have other women.

If not he would crack things down to one girl from all the crushes that Rito has.

As grandfather of Rito, it was his duty to put Rito in the right path.

His grandson is already taking a gamble.

If things are wrong he cannot implicate other people for his grandson’s foolishness.

So he would talk to Rito about this matter later.

But first he put on his friendly neighborhood face that is more natural than third Hokage to talk with Hinata.

As for Karin he already talked to her and found that she is from the Uzumaki clan.

In his opinion the bloodline of Rito that is related to Senju clan is well matched with the Uzumaki clan.

So he is willing to take her in as his first pick.

Also he has seen the flirting of Rito and Karin from time to time.

Being the grandfather of Rito, he was happy to see that his grandson is happy.

…………..

Kakashi and guy are leading the Anbu that are on good terms with fourth Hokage to demand justice for Naruto.

They clamored more and more.

But the current times are extremely harsh.

The temperature is already very low.

It reached negative 30 degrees recently.

Even at this temperature the beast type monsters are still fine but people are unable to hold back.

10 percent of the village population has frozen to death because of the extreme cold.

The news about this is not spread even with so many people died because the people are still adapting to the temperature to go out and search for others.

During this time the people that still had food reserves and some firewood were able to survive.

Ninja that reached the Chunin level can barely manage to go out and do some work.

This drop of temperature happened after the monster beast tide few days ago.

Because of this each of these Anbu and other ninja that started to clamor at the Hokage building after the rumors, reduced considerably.

They are all taking care of their family during this troubled times.

They did not have time to bother about someone else’s child right now.

When the crisis came this is how the human nature will be.

There is only Kakashi and might guy most of the time.

Even Rito was taken aback by the change as he forgot to take this thing into consideration before.

But it is not a problem.

When the people adapt to the new temperature in a few days they would be here again.

Everyone is practicing and exercising right now.

It is no longer a secret that practicing and exercising can increase stat points.

Chapter 49: Naruto was finally released

Everyone is practicing and exercising right now.

It is no longer a secret that practicing and exercising can increase stat points.

Originally it was around this time the news of shrine ruins should come out.

No one knows how published the news out but the information spread quickly.

But this time the news about the shrine ruins is still not out.

That is because no one cleared them except for Rito.

Rito is currently struggling to clear the special Jonin level monster ninja.

It was hard for him and his most of the day is being spent in this matter.

He did not even get to go out to fight other monster beasts.

Clearing the shrine ruins is giving him tremendous benefits but it is also giving him many problems too.

Fortunately he was quickly witted and learnt the ninjutsu properly.

There are skill experience books that fall when defeating some of the monster ninja in the shrine ruins.

These skill experience books helped him improve those specific Jutsu to higher level equating him with the monster ninja in the ruins.

It is especially difficult for him to fight the monster ninja of the Uchiha clan.

This is because the monster ninja has opened the Sharingan.

It can use the full potential of the single tomoe Sharingan.

In the past few days he took the maximum time here defeating the Uchiha ninja with the single tomoe Sharingan.

On the other hand Senju clan monster ninja would improve to strong attacks a little later at Jonin level.

At that time they physical strength would reach a new level.

Also when they reach the Kage level these monster ninja might even have sage techniques.

Based on his estimate when Rito unlocks the Jonin level he will not be able to keep up with clearing the shrine ruins.

At that time he can only go with the flow and let the shrine ruins expose.

Before that he has to try his best to improve.

Things are moving very slowly.

Because of the sudden drop of temperature all the things that Rito planned has postponed by a week.

On the other hand Naruto was finally released and he was thoroughly hypnotized.

He did not remember anything that happened in the past few days.

All he says is that third Hokage is a good grandpa that saved him from Danzo.

Any decent ninja can see that something was wrong with Naruto.

The ninja unanimously decided to let Naruto to let him stay with Kakashi.

Well Naruto is free.

On the other hand Sasuke was still in captive.

Fortunately during this time he got few more blood line vials because of the critical hit during these days.

With the amount that Rito got he was able to improve the bloodlines of other clans to 10 percent.

But it was not enough to open the Sharingan or other bloodline abilities.

He can only use the abilities of the Senju clan.

The bloodline of the Senju clan reached 80 percent and his affinity to natural energy also improved.

As long as it reaches 90 percent he will be able to use sage body.

When it reaches 100 percent he can directly awaken the perfect sage body.

This is what he is trying to achieve.

On the other hand as long as he gets 10 percent Otsutsuki bloodline he will be able to directly stimulate all the other bloodlines he has.

Unfortunately with all his Luck all he got is less than 1 percent of Otsutsuki bloodline.

Also the free bloodline percentage improvement card would not work on Otsutsuki bloodline.

So he cannot get that either with the free bloodline percentage improvement card.

……………

During this time Rito visited Hinata many times and the connection between her and Rito deepened.

Kurenai on the other hand is a little jealous.

The name and fame of Asuma was currently very low.

The reason for this is not his actions instead it was because of his father third Hokage.

During the previous beast tide third Hokage did not let him go out and fight.

On the other hand third Hokage sent few of his loyal men to take care of Danzo.

Well he went there himself but did not confront Danzo because Danzo possess the eyes of Shisui.

He doesn’t want to be the target of Kotoamatsukami also known as distinguishing heavenly god illusion and loose his mind.

He knows the greed of Danzo and he was sure that Danzo did not leave any survival points to the roots.

Because of this he can take care of the roots with little effort.

But this is where he hit the wrong tactic.

Danzo did leave few root ninja with their survival points that can perfectly restrain other ninja.

So the team that was sent by third Hokage was gone just like that.

With the failure of the team he sent to kill Danzo, third Hokage stopped for the time being.

Third Hokage wanted to use different tactics.

He wanted to push the blame of capturing Naruto and mistreating him towards Danzo.

This is what he did to Naruto before releasing him.

Also during the release of Naruto he emphasized that many of his loyal ninja died during the rescue of Naruto.

Even with all his words he did not utter a single word saying that Danzo was labeled as traitor.

No one knows what the reason for this is.

But no one is in the mood to think of this incident.

On the other hand after Naruto was released Shikaku visited Rito again to speak about what he learnt from the third Hokage.

He not only wants to gain trust from Rito but also want to test Rito of his capabilities.

Completely trusting Rito is no different than putting all of his family and other dependent clans at risk.

So his decision should always be right.

Any wrong choice he makes would make him the enemy of third Hokage and Danzo that are very ruthless.

Chapter 50: make your choice Shikaku

So his decision should always be right.

Any wrong choice he makes would make him the enemy of third Hokage and Danzo that are very ruthless.

Shikaku arrived at Rito house and Ayame welcomed him.

Even though Rito treated Ayame like a friend she still acts like a maid.

Rito kept his promise for her and for her father so she wanted to work hard and repay Rito’s and Homura’s kindness.

Shikaku started and wanted to report about Danzo.

But when he thought of these things he understood that the person that leaked the information about Danzo might be leaked by Rito.

Based on the facts it is not hard to guess that Rito is the one that used the echo type Jutsu to attack third Hokage and other during this time.

Also right before the apocalypse started there are rumors spread through echo bombs more than once.

All of these actually neutralized the rumors spread by third Hokage and Danzo to smear dirt on Homura about stealing emergency supplies.

Well he could not speculate who stole the emergency supplies from the start.

But he was sure that the echo bombs and the rumors were spread by Rito.

Then this also informs that Rito is the one that took care of those thugs and saved many people that are kept in captive by Danzo for survival points.

Well there are many thoughts in the mind of Shikaku.

But he could not reach the end of the problem because the information is insufficient.

Well he explained the information and when he about to get to the part about Danzo, Rito picked up the matter and spoke in his place.

Well Shikaku did not have much astonishment.

First is he is already used to it and the second is that the mentioning of Rito confirmed the fact that this information was leaked by Rito.

With that known he stopped speaking and wanted to know what Rito wanted to ask him.

Naruto was already saved so his task is completed to some extent.

He mentioned another important thing about Danzo.

That is third Hokage sent a squad to capture or kill Danzo but the group vanished.

The group contains 3 Chunin ninja close reaching special Jonin level.

Other than that there are another 6 people in where 3 are Genin and 3 are newly promoted Chunin.

But they all are gone.

Based on the estimate they all should be dead right now.

Rito nodded his head listening to the information.

Then he spoke.

“Shikaku san let me tell you that the village is not what it seems to be.

Well you know most of the things in this village.

But the current apocalypse situation happening is not something anyone can expect.

Right now no matter which family it is or how big the clan it is, they might not survive till the end.

I want to know if you have made your choice.

I will not give you any benefits before you made your choice because the benefits I can give you can let you survive in this situation till the end.

As long as I have breath in my body, your clan and the clans you represent will live.

But the moment of betrayal, I will completely cut of the things from the root.

In this kind of situation having a group is good but you need good followers instead of pig teammates and black sheep.

I have told you the bad words now.

Now you can make your choice.”

Shikaku thought for a while.

In his mind all the actions related to Danzo, third Hokage appeared one after the other.

Then all the current turbulent time appeared in his mind.

Finally the thoughts of Rito playing tricks with third Hokage and Danzo also appeared.

He was unable to make a decision without knowing the strength of Rito.

That is right.

Third Hokage and Danzo are powerful.

If Rito is not powerful then even with all the effort they will still die for betrayal.

So he has to know the strength of Rito first.

He knows that Rito is a straight forward person.

As long as he asked the question of strength from Rito, he would either get an answer of Rito’s strength or he would have to leave here directly.

Before making a decision he directly asked Rito.

Also he mobilized the chakra for emergency use.

He came here without telling anyone.

As long as Rito was strong and wanted to kill him he might not be able to defend.

Then he will definitely die without a trace in the current situation.

This is the worst situation and he was sure that Rito with the intelligence he showed, he would definitely guess this much.

So he mobilized his chakra and then wanted to ask Rito about his strength.

Before he could speak Rito spoke first.

“You don’t have to worry about me killing your.

If I kill you then the suspicion on me would become stronger for bother Danzo and third Hokage.

You might be intelligent in planning and analyzing but you can never be as intelligent as an old fox like Danzo and third Hokage….”

When Rito said this Shikaku mobilized his chakra even more because reducing vigilance at this moment is no different than suicide.

What if Rito wanted to trick him into letting his guard down and strike Rito at that moment?

Also what Rito said is really the truth and he knows that both third Hokage and Danzo are old foxes that are intelligent than him.

Rito continued to speak.

“You wanted to know about my strength right.”

As Rito said he made a small hand seal and immediately the small frozen lotus pot on the table started to shake a little.

Then the bud of lotus flower slowly broke out of the ice and started to bloom right in front of Shikaku.

Looking at the plant that bloomed Shikaku’s pupil shrank because what he is seeing……..
