Chapter 1 to 13 All hokage chat group (Patreon)

Inside the Hokage Building, Ryan, sitting in the Hokage's seat, was currently experiencing a headache. He looked at the information scattered in front of him, particularly concerning the Mist Shinobi, Rock Shinobi, and Cloud Shinobi who were preparing to make their moves.

The start of the third ninja war was drawing closer.

After being transmigrated into the world of Naruto and gaining various abilities, Ryan had been practising ninjutsu, honing his skills, learning from Tsunade, and saving Uzumaki Kushina.

He had also secretly made plans and positioned himself as the Hokage in anticipation of the third shinobi war.

Although Ryan's strength had reached the peak of the Kage level, it wasn't sufficient when compared to the formidable beings that would appear in the later stages of Naruto, capable of destroying the ninja world.

Even with his peak Kage-level strength, the upcoming third ninja war couldn't be ended.

Ryan had achieved his current strength without cheating, making him a benchmark among transmigrators. Just as he was pondering how to deal with the third ninja war, a ding sound suddenly interrupted his thoughts.

"Ding."

'First Hokage Senju Hashirama joined the group chat.'

'Second Hokage Senju Tobirama joined the group chat.'

'Fifth Hokage Tsunade joined the group chat.'

A series of inexplicable mechanical sounds resounded in Ryan's mind. As he was still dealing with a headache, a bright rainbow-coloured light appeared before his eyes.

After waiting for so long, the cheat had finally arrived. Ryan, still sitting in the Hokage's office, suddenly saw a flash of light. In an instant, he found himself in a vast white world. In this world, a massive conference table resembling the Knights of the Round Table stood before him.

"Welcome to the Konoha Hokage chat group," a message appeared.

Within this chat group, members could exchange information, intelligence, and supplies. To provide cross-world assistance for members. Ryan, as the group owner, had been automatically selected as the leader.

The message continued, stating that the group needed at least five members to open the world leaderboard function and ten members to activate the mode of conquering other worlds. As the group leader, Ryan had the power to invite, call meetings, and remove members.

Understanding the nature of the cheat, Ryan compared it to the chat groups he had read about in fanfics, which were typically limited to a particular world. However, this cheat had a mode for conquering the other worlds which intrigued him. Despite not being exactly the same as the chat groups he had read about, it was still impressive.

Ryan realized that the group members in this chat group had different backgrounds compared to those in other chat groups he had encountered. Here, Only the Hokages of Konoha were gathered, and in the future, they could join forces to conquer other worlds.

The only regret Ryan had was that the cheat had come too late. He had already become the Hokage himself. Observing the virtual screen in front of him, Ryan glanced at the current list of group members.

Fourth Hokage—Ryan (group leader)

First Hokage—Senju Hashirama (group member)

Second Hokage—Senju Tobirama (group member)

Fifth Hokage—Senju Tsunade  (group member)

Surprisingly, three Hokages had been pulled into the group, all of them belonging to the Senju clan. However, Ryan thought it would be interesting to replace Tsunade with the Third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen.

He anticipated the reaction of the First and Second Hokages when they learned that their good apprentices had wiped out the Senju clan. Given Tobirama's temper, it was likely that he would be very furious.

Looking at the invitation button for new group members, Ryan noticed that it was still inactive, remaining a dull grey colour. He couldn't continue pulling people into the chat group for the time being. It seemed he would have to wait until the next meeting to activate the world leaderboard function.

Having grasped the concept of the cheat, Ryan pressed the button to initiate the meeting. The system beeped, and a gate of light instantly appeared in the space.

....

In the Konoha Village Senju residence, inside the house, the First Hokage, Senju Hashirama, was lying weakly on a bed. Uzumaki Mito, responsible for taking care of him, and Senju Tobirama, who had come to visit, were present.

"Ahem, cough, what's been happening in the village lately?" Hashirama asked, his weak voice filled with concern.

Tobirama, observing Hashirama's weakened state, replied, "Don't worry about the village, big brother. Your health is the most important thing now. Other villages are likely paying attention to your health as well. If your condition worsens, the ninja world may descend into chaos again."

Hearing Tobirama's response, Hashirama couldn't help but look at his ailing body, feeling helpless. After his battle with Madara, his health had steadily declined, and time was running out for him.

The thought crossed his mind that Tobirama was right—once he passed away, the ninja world would likely be thrown into turmoil once more. Just as Hashirama was about to speak to Tobirama, he suddenly heard a mechanical notification in his mind.

'You have joined the Konoha Hokage chat group. The group owner, Ryan, has called for a round table meeting. Please attend on time!'

Surprised by the voice in his head, Hashirama looked around the room, searching for any signs of unusual activity. Seeing nothing out of the ordinary, he turned to Mito and Tobirama and asked if they had heard anything.

However, both Mito and Tobirama shook their heads, indicating that they hadn't heard anything. Perceiving no chakra fluctuations or signs of genjutsu, Hashirama focused on the thin screen in front of him that displayed the message 'Hokage chat group.' He contemplated the situation and decided to attend the meeting.

In his final moments of life, Hashirama gathered his remaining strength and said, "Count me in!" As soon as he spoke those words, colorful rays of light enveloped him, transporting him to the location of the meeting.---

-------------------------------------------------------------

In the another universe,

"It's almost over. This war will come to an end after the official alliance with Raikage in a month's time," said the Second Hokage Senju Tobirama inside the Hokage Building, as he looked at the good news in his hand.

He let out a sigh of relief, this news was signalling the end of the first Shinobi War after many years. Sarutobi Hiruzen and others in the room also expressed their joy upon hearing the Second Hokage's words.

"Really? This is good news" exclaimed one of them.

"Yeah, it's finally over!" added another.

Ever since the death of the First Hokage, other countries had been eyeing Konoha and launched sudden attacks after Senju Hashirama's passing.

Previously, they had restrained themselves due to Hashirama's presence, but without him, they took the opportunity to wage war against Konoha.

Cloud Shinobi Village and the country of Thunder were the first to attack, and under the leadership of Second Hokage Senju Tobirama, Konoha's elite shinobi stood against the entire shinobi world on the battlefield while also preserving their village's heritage.

Sarutobi Hiruzen, Danzo, and Uchiha Kagami had also grown rapidly during this time.

Just as everyone breathed a sigh of relief, Danzo raised a concern. "Teacher, although we are going to form an alliance with Raikage, the alliance is taking place in the Land of Thunder. We should exercise caution."

Hearing Danzo's words, Senju Tobirama nodded in agreement. However, being the fastest Shinobi in the ninja world, he believed he could handle any emergency that might arise.

"Hahaha, don't worry!" he reassured them. "Every ninja village has depleted its resources over the past few years. The supplies in each village are not enough to sustain continued fighting."

Danzo fell silent after hearing his response. Just as Senju Tobirama was about to speak further, a mechanical prompt suddenly sounded in Tobirama's mind.

[Ding! You have joined the Konoha Hokage chat group. Group owner Ryan has called for a round table meeting. Please attend on time!]

Senju Tobirama was instantly alerted by the sudden beep. Despite the war having ended, he remained cautious, knowing that many shinobi from other villages had been sent to assassinate him, the Hokage.

"What's the matter, teacher?" asked Sarutobi, concerned. "Are there any enemies?"

"What's the situation?" added another.

Seeing Senju Tobirama suddenly become wary, Sarutobi and the others exchanged glances. They scanned the Hokage's office, reassured by the presence of Anbu ninjas everywhere. After finding no signs of any intruder, Senju Tobirama was taken aback.

The reminder echoed in his mind once again, indicating that it was not a Genjutsu and that there were no chakra fluctuations.

Realizing that he needed to investigate further, Tobirama resolved to enter the chat group space and find out what was happening. With the Flying Thunder God technique at his disposal, he felt confident that there would be no problem.

"Count me in!" he declared, choosing to participate and joining the chat group.

Meanwhile, inside the Hokage building, Tsunade faced Naruto's inquiry about letting someone go. After a moment of silence, she responded, "Yes."

Naruto questioned her decision, asking why she allowed Jiraya to venture into a dangerous place alone. He emphasized that Tsunade should be well aware of Jiraya's character, referring to him as Pervy Sage.

In response, Kakashi intervened and tried to explain to Naruto, "Naruto, you don't understand the Fifth Hokage's feelings."

Naruto fell silent for a moment upon hearing Kakashi's words. Then he turned and left the room. Before leaving, he looked at Tsunade and made a remark, "If Pervy Sage was the Fifth Hokage, he would never let you go to such a dangerous place alone!"

With that, Naruto left the Hokage building, leaving everyone in the office in a state of silence. Tsunade remained alone in her office, dropping her facade and revealing her true emotions.

In her empty office, Tsunade immersed herself in her thoughts until a mechanical reminder abruptly echoed in her mind.

[Ding! You have joined the Konoha Hokage chat group. Group owner Ryan has called for a round table meeting. Please attend on time!]

Surprised by the sudden voice in her head, Tsunade glanced around, noticing no movement or chakra fluctuations. This confirmed that the voice had indeed originated in her mind.

"Konoha Hokage chat group?" Tsunade pondered deeply, contemplating the current state of the ninja world, which was on the brink of crisis. Based on the information she had received from Jiraiya, Pain's next target would be the remaining tailed beasts, leaving her feeling helpless.

With these thoughts in mind, Tsunade decided not to hesitate any longer. "Count me in!" she exclaimed, choosing to participate. Instantly, a burst of colorful light enveloped her, and when she opened her eyes, she found herself in the chat group space.

Meanwhile, Ryan, sitting at the top of the round table, observed the colourful light curtain that appeared after the summoning announcement. Three figures emerged one after another from the curtain. The first was a man with long hair wearing a casual kimono.

"Hey! What a magical place!" exclaimed the man. "It feels like my injuries are no longer worsening."

The man turned out to be Senju Hashirama, who grew increasingly curious as he observed his surroundings and sensed the changes in his body.

At that moment, Senju Hashirama noticed Ryan and, without waiting for him to ask, another figure emerged from behind.

The newcomer wore a suit of weather-beaten blue battle armour, radiating an aura of sharpness. Tobirama, eager to find out what was happening in this chat group, was taken aback when he saw the resurrected Senju Hashirama before him.

"Huh?! Brother?" Tobirama exclaimed, shocked by the sight of his deceased brother standing before him, fully alive and not a result of the Impure World Reincarnation.

"Hey, Tobirama!" Hashirama responded with surprise. "I didn't expect you to be here too. I thought I was the only one who heard it."

Before the two could fully communicate, a voice came from behind them, exclaiming, "Grandpa? And the second grandpa?"

-----------------------------------------------------------

Tsunade originally came here to find a way to protect Konoha through the Konoha Hokage chat group. It was like hoping that all will be well, but she decided to participate anyway.

As soon as Tsunade entered, she was taken aback to find the deceased Elder Grandpa and Second Grandpa standing in front of her. In disbelief, Tsunade exclaimed, "Grandpa?! And Second Grandpa?"

Hearing Tsunade's voice, Hashirama and Tobirama, the two grandpas, turned to look behind them. Seeing Tsunade walking out of the light curtain, they couldn't help but be surprised. Tobirama recognized Tsunade instantly, while Hashirama carefully studied her.

Especially when Hashirama noticed the jacket with the word "gambling" written on it, it triggered memories of someone addicted to gambling. Instantly, a figure addicted to gambling appeared in Hashirama's mind.

"Huh! Are you Tsuna?" Hashirama exclaimed, shocking Tsunade. Meanwhile, Tobirama looked at the Hokage hat on Tsunade's head once again, his face pensive. Just as the three of them were shocked by their unexpected reunion, a voice suddenly broke the silence.

"Ahem, now that we're all here, the three Hokages Should take their seats first! This is the Konoha Hokage chat group; we are all family. Please have a seat and let's chat!" Ryan, the Fourth Hokage, spoke, smiling and motioning for them to sit.

Confused, Tobirama asked, "Um? Who are you?" Ryan quickly turned around, revealing the Fourth Hokage's royal robe.

"I am the Fourth Hokage, Ryan!~" Seeing the Hokage robe on Ryan's body, Tobirama nodded in recognition, while Hashirama remained puzzled.

But those doubts could be addressed later. Just as the two were about to sit down, Tsunade, suspicious of Ryan, stared at him intently from the side.

"No, the Fourth Hokage was Namikaze Minato!" Tsunade questioned. In response, Ryan smiled indifferently.

"The world we live in is separate. The Konoha Hokage chat group pulls us, who have become Hokage in these separate worlds, into this chat group. As for me, in the original world, the history is the same as what you know of the Fifth Hokage. But the world I live in is like a parallel world. In this world, I successfully overthrew the Third Hokage's rule and became Hokage ahead of time instead of Namikaze Minato!" Ryan explained.

Among the three Hokages, Tobirama was the quickest to accept the explanation, especially after seeing Hashirama alive. Tobirama understood the concept of parallel worlds. After all, he studied and developed time-space ninjutsu and even Forbidden Jutsu to bring back people from the Pure world. But Hashirama in front of him was alive not reanimated.

"So that's it. Since you are the Fourth Hokage, Ryan, what about you, Tsunade?" Tobirama inquired. Tsunade realized the situation and responded, "Fifth Hokage."

"Fifth Hokage?" Tobirama repeated. Tsunade had become the Fifth Hokage. Tobirama fell into deep thought, understanding that something significant must have happened to Konoha during this period.

Finally catching up with the information, a worried Hashirama asked, "Is Konoha Village alright now?" He couldn't imagine the state of Konoha Village with Tsunade as Hokage.

Thinking about Tsunade's gambling addiction and the jacket with "gambling" written on it, Hashirama's heart sank. He feared that Konoha had fallen victim to Tsunade's gambling tendencies.

Facing Hashirama's question, Tsunade pondered for a moment and replied, "Everything is fine!" This response brought some relief to Hashirama. As long as Tsunade didn't place bets on Konoha itself, he felt somewhat reassured.

With the three Hokages seated, the meeting officially began. Tobirama turned to Ryan and asked, "Fourth Hokage, as the group leader, can you tell us what this chat group does? What benefits does it bring?"

Ryan pondered for a moment before answering, "At this stage, the chat group's functions have not been fully unlocked. We only hold meetings every three months. Currently, you can only exchange information here; there is no way to do anything else apart from chatting. However, when the number of people in the chat group reaches five, the world ranking function will be activated. The chat group will rank our respective worlds, and rewards will be given according to the rankings. As for the specific benefits, I don't know yet."

The three Senju showed thoughtful expressions upon hearing Ryan's explanation. They now had a preliminary understanding of the chat group's purpose. The exact rankings and rewards would only be known when the fifth person joined.

While they were contemplating, Ryan shared another significant piece of news. "When the number of people in the chat group reaches five, the chat group will also unlock another function: cross-world mutual aid. If any of your worlds face a major crisis that cannot be resolved, you can ask for help in the chat group. All the Hokages will work together to solve it!"

The faces of the other three Hokages instantly showed shock upon hearing this news. They hadn't expected the chat group to have such an ability. Tsunade, in particular, displayed immense joy on her face. She had been concerned about how to deal with Pain's invasion, but now she realized that if her grandpa could come to help, there was no need to worry.

This function alone brought great satisfaction to the three Hokage. Tsunade, filled with relief, asked Ryan anxiously, "Fourth Hokage, when can we add the fifth person? It's a matter of Konoha's safety."

Hashirama and Tobirama looked at Ryan curiously, wondering what crisis Konoha had faced in Tsunade's world that had her so anxious. As caring grandfathers, they were ready to lend a hand when the function was activated.

"Well, we'll have to wait until the next meeting," Ryan replied, addressing Tsunade's concern.

-------------------------------------------

"In three months?"

Upon hearing the info, Tsunade nodded slightly, realizing that she would have to wait for three months and hope that Pain wouldn't pose a threat during that time.

Jiraiya had just sent back information indicating that Pain wouldn't attempt to capture the Nine-Tails in such a short period, so there was still time.

As the weight of the situation sank in, Hashirama looked at Tsunade with curiosity. He remarked, "Tsuna, I never expected you to become the Fifth Hokage! Hahaha! How is the Senju clan doing?"

Tsunade, still lost in thoughts about how to survive the next three months, froze when she heard her grandpa's question. Sadness filled her face, indicating that something terrible had occurred in the future regarding the Senju family.

Observing Tsunade's reaction, Hashirama, despite his jovial personality, understood that something dire had befallen the Senju clan. Although Hashirama often displayed a lighthearted demeanour, he was not oblivious to the darkness of the ninja world.

As Tsunade remained silent, Hashirama sensed that the Senju clan might have met a tragic fate. Glancing at Ryan, he couldn't help but question, "Fourth Hokage, is my Senju clan alright?"

Tobirama, standing beside Hashirama, also looked at Ryan with anticipation. He couldn't fathom how the mighty Senju clan, which had been integrated into Konoha under his leadership, could have been wiped out. The clan's survival had been ensured through the establishment of a single main lineage that resided in the clan's territory and countless others who were integrated into Konoha.

Ryan, feeling the weight of their expectations, let out a sigh and nodded. "Senju clan is no more," he told them about the current state or lack of the Senju clan to them, causing Tobirama to freeze in place. As the peak period of the Second Hokage's reign coincided with that of the Senju clan, Tobirama couldn't comprehend how the once-mighty clan could meet its demise.

"It's really exterminated?" Tobirama asked in disbelief, hoping for a different answer. He couldn't fathom how the large Senju clan had been completely eradicated.

Curious about the details, Tobirama inquired further, "What exactly happened?" He had planned for the Senju clan's integration into Konoha and believed that their extermination was impossible.

Ryan took a moment to collect his thoughts before responding, "In the 17th year of Konoha, the first Ninja World War broke out, and you perished in that conflict. Sarutobi Hiruzen, your disciple, succeeded as Hokage and became the Third Hokage. Another disciple, Shimura Danzo, became the Hokage's assistant and established a separate anbu called the Root, a group of hidden Konoha Shinobi operating in the shadows. It was through the actions of these two individuals that the Senju clan met its end."

The news hit Tobirama like a thunderbolt. As he stood frozen, his initial shock transformed into an icy fury. Hashirama, too, wore a dark expression upon hearing the revelation.

For the two elderly Hokages, the death of their grandson, Nawaki, on the battlefield was not an issue they would contest. However, the revelation that Nawaki had been manipulated and brutally killed by their own students sent them into a deeper rage. Their anger welled up, generating an intimidating aura within the chat space.

"Damn it! How dare they?!" Hashirama's voice resonated with fury.

Observing their furious reactions, Ryan produced the evidence he had gathered from his own world. Anticipating the possibility of encountering other Hokages, he had prepared beforehand, collecting evidence of the actions committed by the Third Hokage and Danzo against the Senju and Uzumaki clans. Obtaining such evidence had not been an easy task.

Presenting the evidence, Ryan solidified Tsunade's belief in his words, causing her to strike the table in front of her in anger. After the end of the Second Ninja World War, Tsunade noticed discrepancies and conducted her own investigation, but the truth she discovered was too overwhelming for her to confront her teacher. Consequently, she chose to escape Konoha rather than face the harsh reality of the Senju clan's demise. Nevertheless, the evidence before her now reignited her rage.

Hashirama and Tobirama, witnessing Tsunade's reaction, acknowledged the validity of Ryan's claims. The evidence solidified their understanding of the truth.

Ryan further explained, "Those two Hokage and Hokage assistant duo were really capable of anything. As long as anyone came close to power they will be eliminated. Even if it's the Senju clan it will not be spared. Not only did they wipe out the Senju clan, but they also eradicated the Uchiha clan!"

Hashirama, listening intently, frowned even more. Although Tobirama held a negative view of the Uchiha clan, Hashirama had never intended to exterminate them at all. Tobirama's apprehension stemmed from his fear of another Madara emerging. Therefore, he sought to guide and control the Uchiha's power. In fact, he had nurtured individuals like Uchiha Kagami, who was willing to transcend the constraints of the clan and dedicate themselves to the village.

To their surprise, Ryan smiled and pointed to his position, stating, "Because I was chosen as the group leader of the chat group, I have access to information beyond my time as the Fourth Hokage. So, I know not only the past but also the events that occurred after the Fifth Hokage."

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 

Tsunade didn't say anything more after hearing that. First Hokage Hashirama and Second Hokage Tobirama on the side also recovered from the shock. But at this moment, Second Hokage's face was full of bitterness.

Who would have thought that the person chosen by himself would massacre the Senju family in the future?

I picked such Disciples. I can still understand them touching the Uchiha clan. After all, the evil power of Sharingan. It is understandable to be wary of such forces. Following my teachings. After these two came to power, they even dare to wipe out the Senju clan.

I'm afraid that slowing down will alert both. When we go back, we must not let these two goods appear on the ninja world stage!

Just kill both of them!

Thinking of this, Second Hokage Tobirama couldn't help but smile. Yes, all of this has not yet happened in my own world.

It's enough to kill these two good bastards!

Only then did Second Hokage Tobirama react.

"It turns out that this is the real purpose of the chat group!"

"You can completely change history!"

Tobirama, who opened New World for the other two Hokage stayed silent for a while and expressed his thoughts.

Hearing the thoughts of the Second Hokage. Hashirama and Tsunade on the side couldn't help but look at each other. The two of them were even more shocked at this moment.

Even Ryan called it wonderful intuition. It can only be said that it is worthy of the Second Hokage. I haven't brought it up yet. The Second Hokage has figured it out by himself.

Looking at the second Hokage with a sudden change in his style. Ryan also hurriedly interrupted: "Ahem, before that, I need to understand one thing."

"That is, what time period are you all in at the moment?"

When they heard that, Second Hokage Tobirama was still a little excited about changing the destiny of the Senju family. Couldn't help but put away the smile on his face.

Then he opened his mouth and said, "In the seventeenth year of Konoha, the first ninja war is about to end."

"I'm going to sign an alliance contract with Raikage in one month!"

"At that time, this ninja war will come to an end."

Speaking of which, Second-Hokage Tobirama breathed a sigh of relief. After all, no one wants war. Now that the war is coming to an end, the Second Hokage has indeed relaxed a lot.

Just after the Second Hokage finished speaking, First Hokage Hashirama on the side also patted Second Hokage on the shoulder with satisfaction.

But Ryan and Tsunade on the side had weird faces now.

Seeing this, Second Hokage, who was still a little relaxed, couldn't help but tense up.

Then he cautiously asked the two of them, "Could something bad happen?"

Seeing this, Hashirama looked at the two worriedly. Seeing this, Ryan had no choice but to say, "Um, how should I put it?"

"One month later, during the alliance meeting, Cloud Shinobi Village's Golden Horn and Silver Horn led the troops to rebel and then killed Second Raikage, and destroyed the alliance contract!"

"In order to cover the retreat of Konoha's new Hokage, you stayed behind to hold the fort."

"You died in this battle. After you died, the first Ninja World War was over."

I died on the eve of the end of the Ninja War!

If Tobirama didn't know what Sarutobi Hiruzen and the others did in future. He might still accept it.

But now, I died after saving these swindlers. This is not something the second Hokage can accept. No wonder the Senju clan will be destroyed. It was because he was about to die.

This caused Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzo to become lawless after returning. No, I must not let this happen.

For a while, Second Hokage sat on the seat with inexplicable lights flashing in his eyes, and not a single person knew what he was thinking about.

Seeing this, Hashirama quickly said, "I've been in Konoha for ten years now."

"Nothing should happen, right?"

Hashirama is also quite curious about what is about to happen to him. I also want to hear what's going to happen next to me. Facing Hashirama's curious baby gaze,

Ryan couldn't help and said: "Nothing happened, but you will be gone in two years."

"But although it is known that you died in the twelfth year of Konoha, no one knows exactly why you died!"

Knowing that I have two years to live. Hashirama didn't have any regrets; instead, he smiled cheerfully.

"Is there still two years left, hahaha?"

"But I can still last for two years, which is not bad."

Currently, Hashirama has nothing to hide.

He spoke about his body, after fighting Uchiha Madara. My body seems to have reached its limit for some reason. The injury continued to worsen. The body also began to weaken day by day.

At this time, the reactions of Ryan and the three of them were quite similar. Because there is a lot of speculation about this matter. But most of the guesses are related to the battle in the Valley of the End.

Now, the answer is the same. With the First Hokage and Second Hokage, all is said and done.

Everyone's eyes fell on Tsunade.

At this time, Tsunade also quickly adjusted his emotions and said, "It's the 63rd year of Konoha, and Jiraiya just died in battle."

"There is an organization called Akatsuki that is capturing tailed beasts, and now we are only short of Cloud Shinobi's Eight-Tails and Konoha's Nine-Tails."

"It won't be long before that guy named Pain will attack Konoha!"

Soon, Tsunade introduced the current situation in Konoha.

After hearing Tsunade's words. The first and second Hokages understood why Tsunade was so eager at the beginning.

I didn't expect that there would be such a crazy organization dedicated to collecting tailed beasts in the ninja world in future.

But now that they all are gathered in this Hokage chat group. There is nothing else to not Believe.

"Don't worry, Tsunade."

"Since there will be a Hokage chat group,"

"That means everything can be changed!"

"That's right, Fourth Hokage!"

Just when Tsunade was worried, First Hokage smiled and patted Tsunade on the head. Then he smiled and looked at Ryan,

Facing the eyes of the First Hokage. Ryan also must admire, as expected of First Hokage. Seemingly careless but wise and empathetic.

My heart is like a mirror. Now the role of the chat group is directly named. Seeing this, Ryan smiled and said, "Of course!"

"Since we can be pulled in by the Hokage chat group! Everyone should unite and help each other!"

"Tsunade's problem can be resolved after the next meeting in three months. When the fifth group member joins, just turn on the mutual assistance function!"

"But the most important thing right now is you, Second Hokage."

As Ryan said, all eyes again fell on Second Hokage Tobirama.

"Hmmm?"

SUPPORT ME ON P*TREON/Marioni to read 33 chapters ahead.

-------------------------------------------------------------

"Because the Chat meeting is held every three months."

"For those of you who are about to encounter a major crisis in the next three months. This is the most important thing to remember!" As Ryan said.

Hashirama and Tsunade, on the side, also nodded in unison.

The Second Hokage had a life-and-death crisis after returning home. If Tobirama could change his own history. That means the possibilities through the chat group are endless for everyone!

But at this time, Hashirama noticed a point.

He looked towards Ryan with doubt in his eyes: "Fourth Hokage, if Tobirama still hasn't changed his destiny after returning..."

"So, what is going to happen?"

Faced with this problem, He decided to act. Tobirama and Tsunade were also filled with curiosity. Their two worlds have recently undergone a change.

Ryan pondered for a moment and then said: "If you can't change your destiny, let's take the Second Hokage as an example."

"It should be the same as the historical records. He died during the first ninja war."

"In the chat group, a Hokage world would be lost."

Speaking of which. Hashirama and the others understood. In the chat groups, if you want to open more functions, you will need to pull in more Hokage worlds.

If Tobirama dies during the first ninja war after returning.

Then, two more new Hokage must be added to the chat group to enable new functions.

Remembering this, all four couldn't help looking at each other: "The most important function of the chat group should be to add more worlds to chat?"

"But, do we have ten Hokage?"

About this question, I don't know. Hashirama and the others suddenly widened their curious eyes. Even Tsunade is not an exception. It's already the fifth Hokage.

Could it be that Konoha will be passed down to the 10th Hokage later?

In front of everyone's eyes. Ryan shook his head very calmly.

"No, as far as I am aware."

"At most, it has only reached the Seventh Hokage."

"But in the middle, there will be some episodes."

<Hokage 5.5. His wish was fulfilled and he was killed even sooner after that.>

Speaking of which. Ryan's eyes instantly locked onto Second Hokage Tobirama. So, if Second Hokage goes back, it will still die in the First Ninja World War.

"And if chat rooms cannot add a new Hokage world."

"The function of the chat group may never be able to open the next function!" Hashirama and Tsunade heard this. Immediately, he looked at Tobirama with a worried expression on his face. This may be related to the subsequent function opening of the chat group.

Hashirama, it's so interesting to have such a magical place. Make sure that all the features are enabled.

As for Tsunade, it's because Konoha in her own world is about to die. Use the follow-up functions available in the chat group. If there are five members.

"Tobirama, be careful on your way back!"

"Yes, Second Grandpa, please take your own life as the top priority!"

Faced with the worry of his family, Tobirama naturally understood what was more important.

As the first Hokage of people with the spirit of exploration in the history of Konohagakure for all kinds of forbidden ninjutsu, (the second Hokage being Orochimaru).

Tobirama is more aware of the importance of chat group than anyone else.

The function of the connecting parallel worlds. Originally, after hearing his follow-up history. Knowing that I had died just to kill those idiot disciples. If I don't bring these idiotic disciples with me when I go back. With the Flying Thunder God Technique, who can stop him?

But now, Tobirama changed his mind in an instant.

"Don't worry, everyone."

"I will not risk my life this time."

Everyone nodded at hearing the words. What Second Hokage said next unexpectedly caused everyone's faces to change drastically.

"Everyone, I plan to abdicate when I go back. Let Sarutobi Hiruzen become the Third Hokage."

Without waiting for Tobirama to finish. Tsunade quickly interjected.

"Really?"

Second Grandpa, you're confused! How can you make him a Hokage?"

However, Hashirama held out his hand to stop Tsunade who was about to say something.

Although I don't know what Tobirama wants to do.

He must have plans.

Then he signaled Tobirama to continue.

Seeing this, Second Hokage also said: "Don't worry, because the alliance ceremony in a month's time requires the shadows of both parties to be present."

"Since I'm not going to be there, I need someone to sign for me."

"Let Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzo go when the time comes."

" He will be the shadow of Konoha so he must go, and the alliance ceremony can also be signed."

"As for whether you can come back alive, it depends on the situation."

Speaking of this, Tobirama stopped as well. Tsunade on the side fell silent for an instant. She looked at his grandfather in shock.

Even Ryan was quite surprised.

It is worth mentioning that he was the iron fist kind of Hokage.

The second Hokage in memory was the person who made Konoha develop rapidly.

Including Anbu, Ninja School, Konoha Guard, etc.

Look now! I still underestimated this Second Hokage. If he hadn't died during the first Ninja War. I'm afraid Konoha is even scarier than before. After hearing about this plan, I was very impressed.

Ryan couldn't help but nod in agreement: "Great choice!"

Even Hashirama, who was the eldest brother, also agrees now. He really wanted his younger brother to live.

Seeing that everyone agrees with his plan, Tobirama was also relieved.

Anyway, in history, the Hokage always dies. The Dead Third Hokage will also die. By the way, this plan will also get rid of Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzo together.

He not only changed his own history, but he also helped solve these two idiots.

Alright, now that the second-Hokage problem has been resolved.

"Do you have any additional comments or thoughts to share?"

"Otherwise, this meeting will come to an end, and we'll wait for the next one in three months."

At that time, the world leaderboard function and cross-border mutual assistance function will be activated!

Ryan said, "Yes."

Hashirama and the others suddenly looked at each other.

He then shook his head.

You already know what you need to know.

There are still two years left for Hashirama.

At that time, there should be a way to treat his body in the chat group.

And Tobirama is planning to start his own plan immediately after returning. After all, his time is the most precious.

As for Tsunade was looking forward to the two functions that will open after the second meeting.

Seeing that the three of them are fine.

Ryan decided to end the meeting himself.

As the colourful glow instantly enveloped everyone.

After Ryan slowly opened his eyes. He then found himself back in his office.

SUPPORT ME ON P*TREON/ MARIONI

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As he looked at the familiar layout in front of me, Hashirama quickly sat up from the bed.

"Am I Back?" she asked.

At that moment, Hashirama noticed that Mito and Tobirama were also present.

"What's up, brother? What's going on?" Hashirama inquired.

Startled, Hashirama looked up at the sky. Mito was already used to his nervous nature.

Tobirama, standing beside them, felt a little bewildered.

"What do you mean by 'coming back'? Didn't I just return?" he wondered.

And as soon as I came back, I went to see big brother Hashirama.

Faced with Tobirama's doubts, Hashirama hastily waved his hand to indicate he had nothing more to say.

However, what Hashirama didn't expect was that, after chatting with them for so long, it turned out that it had only been a blink of an eye.

It was amazing. As I looked at the slightly immature Tobirama in front of me, I couldn't help but think about the Second Hokage Tobirama whom I had seen in the chat group. They were the same person, yet the Tobirama in front of me still had a few years left before he grew up.

However, when I thought about the last plan of Second Hokage Tobirama, I couldn't help but stare at Tobirama in front of me intently.

I did not expect this kid to come up with such a plan, as if he didn't care about his disciples at all.

After a moment of reflection, Hashirama suddenly laughed. That fits Tobirama's character perfectly.

What he should do is not hold back at all, just like in the battle between the Senju clan and the Uchiha clan long ago. Senju Hashirama, who was the patriarch, played with Uchiha Madara.

However, his younger brother tried his best to kill Madara and Izuna back then. If you don't kill the other party, he will never give up.

Looking at my older brother in front of me, I smirked for a while before talking to myself. Tobirama couldn't help but look at Mito beside him.

At this moment, Hashirama felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by the two. He hastily asked Tobirama, "How many disciples have you taken in recently?"

"What? Yes, big brother!" Tobirama replied.

When Hashirama mentioned this topic, Tobirama suddenly became alert.

"You know too, Brother. I have now accepted three disciples: Sarutobi Hiruzen, Shimura Danzo, and Uchiha Kagami. Especially Kagami, even though he belongs to the Uchiha clan, he has a heart for Konoha. He's a good kid."

Upon hearing Tobirama's words, Hashirama almost couldn't help but laugh. Of course, I know that you have accepted disciples.

I also know that your two unfortunate disciples wiped out both the Senju clan and the Uchiha clan. In this regard, Hashirama is also straightforward.

"Let Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzo return."

"Pay attention to these two families as well."

Faced with Hashirama's orders, Tobirama, although he didn't understand how the two families had offended his eldest brother, did not hesitate to obey his words.

Moreover, they were just two newly recruited disciples. Kick them out as soon as possible; they dared to offend big brother. It seems that these two families need to be properly monitored.

Soon, Tobirama left the clan house with Hashirama's orders. The two small families of the Sarutobi and Shimura clans were soon suppressed by Tobirama. Neither of the families had any idea what happened, except that they saw Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzo being kicked out by Tobirama as students.

The patriarchs of the two families instantly became angry.

"Two little brats!" one of them exclaimed. "What did you guys do? You made Tobirama-sama so angry!"

"It's done, it's finished, we're through."

....

....

....

"What? Am I back?"

As I skimmed over everything familiar in front of me, Second Hokage Tobirama's eyes also widened. I didn't expect this chat group to be so amazing. But when I saw a few people in the office, especially the two standing in the front, Second Hokage Tobirama's face darkened instantly.

"Hiruzen, why is the teacher suddenly so angry?" he asked.

"Why do I feel a little flustered?"

Looking at the black-faced Second Hokage Tobirama, Danzo couldn't help but feel guilty. Now, Sarutobi Hiruzen was also confused.

"Why is the teacher suddenly so angry?" Hiruzen whispered to Danzo beside him.

While the two were communicating in hushed tones, Tobirama's expression instantly returned to his usual calm.

He looked at both of them calmly.

"Next, I will announce the orders," Tobirama said.

As Tobirama's voice faded, everyone present immediately became sombre. However, the words of Second Hokage Tobirama changed the expressions on everyone's faces.

"Sarutobi Hiruzen has taken over the position of Konoha's Third Hokage," he declared.

"Danzo will assist him as the Hokage's assistant."

After the words were spoken, Danzo reacted the most violently.

Instantly, he turned to Second Hokage Tobirama in confusion and exclaimed, "What?!"

"Why is this decision so sudden, teacher?"

In response, Second Hokage did not provide any explanation. He simply looked at Danzo quietly, as if he could see right through him. The latter quickly realized the situation and hurriedly backed down.

Now, Sarutobi Hiruzen was also quite surprised. Suppressing the ecstasy in his heart, he immediately stepped forward and bowed down, saying, "Thank you, Teacher!"

"I will not disappoint the teacher's trust."

As I looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen, who appeared to be a loyal and happy individual, the Second Hokage Tobirama wanted to laugh. If you don't know your future goals, I can easily be fooled by this seemingly loyal guy.

Now, however, "Well, get ready. In a month, you and Danzo will lead the team to the alliance ceremony."

"I also officially announce you as the Third Hokage to the entire ninja world!"

Listening to the orders of the Second Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen quickly agreed. For a moment, he seemed to be in high spirits.

Looking at Sarutobi Hiruzen, who couldn't hide the smile on his face, Danzo stood in the room, his face filled with jealousy.

"Damn you, Sarutobi Hiruzen!"

"Why are you the Hokage? I'm not bad either!"

Teacher! You are not fair! Why did you choose Hiruzen suddenly?

For a while, my stomach felt dissatisfied. But now the deal was done, so there was no point in saying more.

I could only watch helplessly as Sarutobi Hiruzen assumed the position of Third Hokage.

In Tsunade's world as the Fifth Hokage:

Within the Hokage building, I looked at everything familiar in front of me. If it weren't for the vividness of everything that had just happened, I would have thought it was a dream.

"Wow, that's fantastic!" I exclaimed. "Just wait until the second meeting starts in three months; then, the current predicament can be resolved."

Tsunade, who had found a solution, suddenly felt better. However, when I saw the information that Jiraiya had sacrificed his life for on the table, my emotions plummeted.

"Oh, if it had come earlier!"

"Perhaps Jiraiya would still be alive."

SUPPORT ME ON P*TREON/MARIONI.

------------------------------------------------------------------

"The end of the meeting."

Acquired Items: None.

The next Hokage meeting will commence in three months. Prior to the commencement of the meeting, group owners may immediately invite a Konoha Hokage to join the group chat.

The bigger the number of people in the chat group, the longer the duration of the meeting.

Looking at the settlement page of the chatroom. Ryan was not surprised at all. Ryan's main concern is being able to invite another Konoha Hokage to join their group in three months' time.

At that time, there will be five Hokage in the group. Can unlock other features.

"After three months, you will be able to unlock the world leaderboard feature."

Looking at the World Leaderboard function that has not been unlocked.

At this moment, the more Ryan looked at the message from the system "item obtained: none," the more dazzling his heart felt.

Presumably, the World Leaderboard function should benefit all group members. At that time, he must find a way to be in the front row.

Considering this, Ryan couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

"Fourth Hokage-Sama."

Just as Ryan was falling into deep thought. A handsome figure appeared at the door of the office instantly. Ryan, who had heard the voice, quickly put aside his thoughts.

"Please come in."

Soon, the figure outside the door opened the door and walked in. Looking at the person. Ryan also smiled on his face.

The person who came was Minato Namikaze, who was supposed to become the Fourth Hokage. But now, he is Ryan's deputy. For Minato, the perfect tool man. Ryan naturally accepted it without any hesitation.

Ryan has been taking advantage of opportunities presented by Minato ever since he was a child. Including rescuing Kushina who had been captured by the Cloud Shinobi at that time.

Fortunately, Minato had successfully apprenticed under Jiraiya. The strength is no different than the original.

"Hokage-Sama, the evidence of the Sarutobi family and the Shimura family's search for resources over the years have all been sorted out!"

"Oh!"

Ryan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when he heard this. This is the kind of thing that is too important because it will change the future of many families in Konoha.

After I successfully squeezed out the Third Hokage from his position as the third Hokage. Then I continued to collect the black materials of Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen and the blackmail materials of Shimura Danzo.

Just by using these things, Sarutobi Hiruzen could not have continued to sit in the Hokage's position.

Now new blackmail material was collected by MInato. It was enough to kill these two people. It's time to close the deal.

"Let's go, Minato. Let's go and take a look what has the strongest Hokage in History has been doing over last 40 years."

Soon, the two rushed towards the clans of the Sarutobi clan and the Shimura clan.

As for whether Namikaze Minato will show mercy to Sarutobi Hiruzen. Ryan is not worried at all. Since Ryan had sent Namikaze Minato to collect these blackmail materials bit by bit. Originally, Minato Namikaze was supported by Sarutobi Hiruzen.

According to Sarutobi Hiruzen, Namikaze Minato is much easier to control than Ryan. As a result, Ryan broke the news by surprise. Sarutobi Hiruzen fell instantly. Because the impact was too great.

Namikaze Minato, being close to the Third Hokage, naturally has no way of becoming the Fourth Hokage. So, Ryan successfully took the position of the Fourth Hokage.

Namikaze Minato was sent by Ryan to gather black information on the collusion between Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzo. With an in-depth investigation, Minato Namikaze is also getting more and more frightened. At the same time, he admires Ryan more and more. If it were him, he couldn't do that at all.

It is very likely that he will be controlled by Sarutobi Hiruzen as a puppet to sit in the seat of the Fourth Hokage. Namikaze Minato, who was following Ryan, was filled with many thoughts now. After all, he is a Smart Civilian ninja now he can clearly see the darkness of Konoha.

But he has made up his mind. He firmly supports Ryan in securing the Hokage's position. Soon, the two arrived at the clan lands of the Sarutobi clan and the Shimura clan.

Coincidentally, these two clans had almost killed off the Senju clan. Only Uzumaki Mito the wife of First Hokage is now old and dying.

Then these two groups took the former Senju clan's land for themselves.

The huge clan land of the Senju clan was divided equally between these two people for their own clans. The two families got together and planned to rip as much as benefits on Konoha's grave.

At this moment, the gates of both families were densely packed with people. He can't stand in the street anymore. One by one, they stood upon the wall. But everyone glared angrily at the gates of the two families in front of them. And the gates of both families, there was also a large crowd gathered. But these people's faces were full of pride.

He did not pay attention to the people in front of him at all. Looking at the two, Ryan and Minato who had rushed over quickly. The faces of the ninja surrounding the two big families suddenly showed joy.

"Fourth Hokage!"

"The Fourth Hokage is here!"

"Excellent!"

"These people, look at how arrogant they are!"

For a moment, the scene instantly boiled over. You know, after traveling to this world. Ryan has no shortage of management personnel.

Civilian ninjas protect their comrades and show kindness towards civilians. So, the approval rate of Ryan is very high.

With the arrival of the two, their presence was felt immediately. Soon, a silver figure quickly came towards Ryan.

"The Fourth Hokage!"

Seeing the person coming, Ryan couldn't help but nod.

"Sure, you can handle it."

The latter stood behind Ryan without saying a word after hearing this. The person who had come was Kakashi's father. Hatake Sakumo, also known as Konoha's White Fang.

During his planning, Ryan saved the White Fang member from Konoha senior management, who had been nearly killed by the Konoha duo.

Fortunately, the evidence of the spreading of the rumors and the statement of the companion who was rescued by Hatake Sakumo was found in time.

He had only succeeded in stopping White Fang from committing suicide in despair. Now he has become an unwavering sharp blade behind Ryan.

As for the position of Hokage. At this time, Hatake Sakumo had already lost his mind. Politics is not something that a pure individual like him cannot comprehend.

Ryan arrived at the door of the Surotobi and Shimura clans. Watching Ryan come to their door.

The Sarutobi and Shimura groups also panicked now. What should they do?

"What can be done to prevent the Fourth Hokage from coming?"

"Go and inform the patriarch!"

"Now we can only let the patriarch come."

For a while, the clansmen gathered at the doorway panicked.

But the few people in the lead forced others to calm down. Seeing approaching Ryan, he slowly opened his mouth and asked, "Fourth Hokage Master, what's happening today?"

"If Hokage sama needs anything just give us an order."

Is there really any need to mobilize so many shinobi to surround them?

SUPPORT ME ON P*TREON/MARIONI

--------------------------------------------------

At this point, the few individuals leading both clans seemed to care less. After all, in their perspective, this was the territory of the Sarutobi clan and the Shimura clan—where the Third Hokage resided, along with the family of the former Hokage's assistant, Danzo.

Even if you are the Fourth Hokage, you can't simply ignore social norms and barge in like this. As he looked at the few people blocking his way, Ryan couldn't help but laugh.

"I don't understand. Observing you all today, it's surprisingly pitiful."

Just as Ryan finished speaking,

"Pfft!!!"

"Ahhhhhh!!!"

"No!!!"

"Elder!!!"

Several dazzling slashes flashed by.

The few individuals in front hadn't clearly seen what had happened. Accompanied by several heads soaring into the sky and exclamations from those around them, it was only at this moment that people noticed Hatake Sakumo, who had been standing behind Ryan, slowly sheathing his sword.

Confronting the crowd, the White Fang gazed around coldly: "Who dares to disrespect the Fourth Hokage?"

"This is the end!"

After uttering those words, he stepped back behind Ryan.

This instantly stunned everyone present. No one dared to step forward to stop him.

"Ahem~"

"Fourth Hokage, you went a little too far!"

Just when the people from the Sarutobi and Shimura clans were frozen in fear at the entrance, they knew it wasn't right to stop the Fourth Hokage, but they were hesitant to let him in.

The two figures slowly emerged from the clan grounds. Before the pair even arrived, their voices reached the crowd.

The people of the two clans instantly calmed down. The individuals who approached were Sarutobi Hiruzen, the Third Hokage, who had been ousted by Ryan, and Shimura Danzo, who had been dismissed even earlier.

Just after the two appeared, Ryan's eyes narrowed slightly.

He fixed his gaze on Sarutobi Hiruzen, wearing an unsatisfied expression.

"Why? Still reluctant to let go of the Hokage position? Is this Hokage Imperial Robe refusing to be taken off?"

Ryan saw Sarutobi Hiruzen, who had arrived before the assembly. At this moment, he still had the Hokage Imperial Robe on.

Upon hearing Ryan's words, Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't seem bothered at all. With a mischievous smile, he chuckled, "Hahaha, as people age, they tend to cling to the past."

"I was wearing it at home and reminiscing about the times with Danzo."

"It's not that I heard of your arrival, Fourth Hokage, and I didn't have time to change, so I came over as is."

"However, before that, Fourth Hokage, shouldn't you provide this old man with an explanation?"

With that, Sarutobi Hiruzen gestured towards the several headless bodies on the ground.

He directed a resentful gaze toward Ryan.

At this moment, Sarutobi Hiruzen wished he could tear Ryan into pieces. He berated himself for not having seen through this man's ambition from the beginning. Quietly gathering evidence against him, combined with Tsunade's support, led to his direct impeachment from the Hokage position.

Thinking of Tsunade made Sarutobi Hiruzen even more furious. She had even sided with an outsider to deal with her own teacher!

Ryan, today you must face the consequences!

Finally seizing the opportunity and eliminating a few clan members had a price, but it was worth it. Danzo, standing at the side, naturally jumped in impatiently when he witnessed this. The foundation of my own efforts is the hard work I've put in.

To replace Sarutobi one day and become Hokage myself. In the end, everything turned out to be a mere charade. His position was declared dismissed after Ryan assumed power.

The ANBU Root was completely disbanded, and its members were integrated into the ANBU and mission teams. Hatake Sakumo was appointed in charge of this transition.

"You are being overly presumptuous, Fourth Hokage!"

"You hold the position of Hokage! How dare you let your subordinates attack fellow villagers!"

"There must be severe consequences!"

Looking at the two senior figures who were still shouting before him, Ryan had no inclination to engage in conversation.

He directly nodded to Namikaze Minato beside him. Observing this, the latter gestured to the ANBU operatives nearby.

"Announce it!"

"Understood!"

Soon, several individuals swiftly performed hand seals. Crimson barriers instantly manifested on all sides.

The Four Red Yang Formation enclosed both Hiruzen and Danzo, along with their clan members.

All that was left was to eliminate them within this barrier, and everything would align with the plan.

It's thanks to this ninjutsu that Ryan had the assurance to neutralize these two problematic figures without harming Konoha's future.

As they watched the Four Red Yang Formation emerge suddenly, the expressions of Sarutobi Hiruzen and Danzo underwent rapid transformations.

It was as if they had been transported back to the moment of their public judgment.

"This is bad!"

"He must be stopped!"

Although they were uncertain about what damning evidence Ryan had amassed this time, Hiruzen didn't need to ponder deeply.

The sheer determination Ryan displayed indicated that this evidence might be potent enough to shatter their already fragile reputations.

Before either of them could react, Minato and Sakumo stood before Sarutobi Hiruzen, one on the left and one on the right.

Confronted by these two individuals, Sarutobi Hiruzen had no choice but to halt his actions.

At this juncture, the entire population of Konoha also noticed the conspicuous emergence of the Four Red Yang Formation.

Within the Hyuga clan,

"Patriarch, what should we do?"

"No rush! Let's observe for now!"

Presently, the entire Hyuga clan remained within the confines of their compound, obediently watching the events unfold.

Across the village in the Uchiha clan,

"Hmph! The Third Hokage still harbors hopes of recruiting the Uchiha clan."

"What a foolish aspiration!"

"It seems that the Sarutobi and Shimura clans are about to become history this time."

Gazing at the Four Red Yang Formation manifesting in the sky,

Uchiha Fugaku was filled with satisfaction.

It's fortunate that I resisted. Otherwise, we'd be left to settle scores with the Fourth Hokage later. The Uchiha clan might not have survived his retribution.

And the other prominent families of Konoha,

The Nara, Akamichi, Yamanaka, Inuzuka, and other clans,

All of them stayed within their family compounds, observing the unfolding events. Soon, the appearance of the Four Red Yang Formation in the sky underwent a change.

Ryan's figure materialized gradually upon the luminous curtain formed by the formation.

"It's the Fourth Hokage's projection!"

"Ah! Lord Fourth Hokage!"

"What's happening now?"

"Regardless of the circumstances, we will always support the Fourth Hokage!"

"Fourth Hokage-Sama is incredibly dashing!"

With Ryan's appearance, the entire population of Konoha erupted with enthusiasm. Aside from a few enamored young women captivated by Ryan's appearance, most individuals were driven by curiosity,

What was unfolding now?

"All citizens of Konoha!"

"Today, an announcement will be made."

"For all these years, Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen! And all the damning evidence of collusion in various criminal activities committed by Hokage's assistant Shimura Danzo!"

TO READ UP TO CHAPTER 111 PLEASE GO TO PATREON.COM/MARIONI

-------------------------------------------------------------

"My God!"

"Real or fake?"

"Did the Third Hokage and Danzo being Hokage Assistant did something bad behind the people of Konoha?"

"It's just unbelievable!"

Ryan's words on the light curtain sent shockwaves through Konoha. The entire village erupted in chaos in mere moments, with most of the residents being civilians.

Among the notable families, the Nara clan, known for their political acumen, was quick to pick up on the situation. While they didn't fully grasp the extent of Third Hokage and Danzo's actions, they managed to piece together some clues.

On the other hand, prominent clans like the Hyuga and Uchiha seemed to rejoice at the revelation.

It must be acknowledged that they had long suffered under the rule of the Third Hokage, and now, with these revelations, they felt a sense of vindication. They refrained from actively attacking the Shimura and Sarutobi clans, as doing so might tarnish their image. However, it was only natural for them to take pleasure in the downfall of their adversaries.

Meanwhile, in a Konoha tavern, a graceful figure sat by the window, pouring herself some sake. She gazed at Ryan's image displayed on the light curtain in the sky.

"Hehe, the time has come, my boy."

Sitting at the tavern was none other than Ryan's mentor, Tsunade Senju.

As if struck by another thought, she glanced in the direction of the Sarutobi clan. A self-deprecating smile graced her lips, followed by another sip of sake.

Tsunade murmured, "Hmm~"

"Tsunade, is your intention to skip the teacher's summons and invite me here?" a cold and calculated voice interrupted her solitude.

As Tsunade continued sipping her drink, a figure emanating an icy aura approached the tavern. With pale skin and a demeanor resembling a patient snake, the newcomer was Orochimaru, the Snake Sannin, a genius of the same generation as Tsunade, the Slug Sannin.

Observing Orochimaru's approach, Tsunade remained silent. Instead, she fetched a bottle of sake from the side and placed it in front of him.

"Come, have a drink. I'm here just to enjoy the spectacle!"

Orochimaru stared at the offered sake, then turned his gaze to Tsunade. There was a rare sense of relief and ease in her demeanor, a sight he hadn't witnessed in a long time. Without further words, he reached for the drink and took a sip.

As Orochimaru's gaze fixated on the distant light curtain, recent events flashed through his mind.

A few days ago, Ryan had launched a campaign of public opinion within the village, revealing fragments of incriminating evidence against the Third Hokage and Danzo.

In the blink of an eye, the Third Hokage was dethroned from his position, leaving everyone dumbfounded by the speed and precision of the coup.

Ryan had taken up the mantle of Hokage with unprecedented rapidity, catching even Orochimaru off guard. But what baffled Orochimaru most was the fact that Ryan had chosen not to target him.

At the time, Orochimaru had been conducting human experiments on Konoha villagers, in collaboration with Danzo. He had assumed he would meet the same fate as the Third Hokage.

To his astonishment, Ryan had spared him. Ryan had visited Orochimaru personally, putting aside the human experiments for the moment. Ryan pledged to continue funding Orochimaru's experiments but stipulated that the subjects must not be from Konoha.

This twist left Orochimaru puzzled, unable to fully comprehend Ryan's motives.

Still, Orochimaru was allowed to continue his experiments in Konoha, a compromise that pleased him greatly.

As he considered Ryan's recent actions, a rare smile curled Orochimaru's lips. He was eager to relish the unfolding drama orchestrated by Ryan.

Soon, all the evidence compiled by Namikaze Minato was unveiled on the light curtain.

This evidence included plans by Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen and his assistant, Shimura Danzo, to undermine the Senju clan.

Ninjas from the Senju clan, regardless of their rank, were systematically sent on perilous missions, often resulting in their deaths.

Even the Senju members integrated into Konoha were subjected to covert human experimentation.

The true extent of their crimes was shocking. The horrifying revelation that the Third Hokage and Danzo had even murdered Nawaki, the young head of the Senju clan, in order to obtain the coveted Wood Style of the First Hokage, left the entire Konoha in stunned silence. No one had suspected such heinous acts from the seemingly benevolent Third Hokage. Even the ninja families, who owed their teachings and the founding of Konoha to Hashirama and Tobirama, were taken aback by this dark truth.

The weight of their actions hit hard, leaving only a handful of survivors in the Senju clan - Tsunade and Uzumaki Mito.

"!!!!"

"These two are beyond ruthless!"

A chilling feeling swept through everyone in Konoha, and before they could fully process this revelation, the evidence on the light curtain continued to play. Plans of manipulation and collusion between the two families were laid bare, along with the revelation that Danzo had been secretly abducting talented individuals from various clans.

"Damn Danzo!!!"

"No wonder our clan's geniuses disappeared overnight!"

"These two monsters!"

Outrage erupted from the onlookers, especially among the major clans. The disappearances of promising talents over the years now made sense, and the families were on the verge of chaos, only held in check by the patriarchs' influence.

The evidence also exposed how the two had been relentlessly collecting resources - from ninja assets to civilian wealth. The supplies sent by the daimyo for the village's benefit were siphoned off by the scheming duo for their own gain.

As a result, the Sarutobi and Shimura families, once small and inconspicuous, had rapidly grown into powerful forces rivaling even the Hyuga clan. Moreover, they weren't just cultivating ninjas; they fattened their ranks with ordinary citizens, indulging them in a life of comfort.

This revelation ignited the anger of both the major clans and the civilians alike.

"Damn Third Hokage!"

"Calling him the Third Hokage is an insult! Sarutobi Hiruzen doesn't deserve that title!"

"Absolutely right!"

"And that old man, Danzo!"

"Both of them are despicable! Unforgivable!"

Konoha erupted into turmoil. The intelligent and perceptive citizens vented their rage, unleashing years of pent-up frustration at the two who had held them in check.

The skies echoed with vehement condemnation. Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzo, whose façades had crumbled, were now exposed to the full force of public fury.

Caught in the relentless wave of anger, the faces of the two culprits turned ashen.

"It's over, it's all over!"

They could only watch helplessly as the consequences of their actions unfurled before them.

Support me on P*treon.c*m/Marioni to read up to chapter 111

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Damn it!" Surotobi exclaimed in frustration.

"How did you manage to leave behind so much evidence?" he questioned, looking at Danzo with a side glance at his long-time friend.

"You're nothing but a fool, Sarutobi Hiruzen," muttered Danzo under his breath, unable to contain his disdain.

At that moment, his desire to strangle Danzo to death intensified.

"What are you doing?" he asked sharply, his patience wearing thin.

"You do it, and you do it," he said, frustrated with the lack of responsibility shown by others.

"Why are there so many loose ends left behind?" he wondered aloud, his frustration growing.

Regardless, it was also a reflection of the shortcomings of the Anbu system.

Unfortunately, nothing seemed to be working.

As Sarutobi Hiruzen scolded him, Danzo couldn't help but feel a sense of despair.

At that moment, he wanted to cry without tears.

"You were a good companion," he said, his voice filled with bitterness, "when we discussed how to deceive others. And now that it's all exposed, you're trying to shift the blame onto me."

"What's the use of talking so much now?" he exclaimed, feeling the urgency of the situation. "We need to find a solution quickly!"

For Danzo, it seemed like Sarutobi Hiruzen always blamed him when the schemes were exposed.

Time was running out, and there was no point in explaining anymore.

The blame had already been placed on him, and he had no choice but to bear it.

But the most important thing now was to find a way to resolve the current situation.

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked around with an ugly expression as he heard the words, realizing that none of the other ninja families who had previously supported him were present, not even the Ino-Shika-Cho clans.

As he observed Anbu, who surrounded and outnumbered them, Sarutobi Hiruzen found himself at a loss for a good solution.

Relying on the two clans to break through was unrealistic, as the quality of their ninjas was far inferior to that of Anbu.

The current Sarutobi Hiruzen was not as powerful as the Hokage portrayed in the original book, and the combined strength of the two clans was not as impressive as expected.

In the Fourth Ninja World War, the Sarutobi clan alone gathered 3,000 ninjas, which was far from the glory they currently possessed.

"Ryan! You traitor!" Sarutobi Hiruzen exclaimed angrily. "Do you really want to kill them all?"

"I am the Third Hokage!" he reminded, his voice filled with authority.

Sarutobi Hiruzen felt helpless and desperate, realizing that they had no feasible options left. He now had to point the finger at Ryan.

Looking at Sarutobi Hiruzen, who resorted to desperate measures, Ryan shrugged and raised his hands slowly. "Is that what you want?" he asked mockingly. "You think too highly of yourself, Third Hokage."

"Listen carefully," Ryan continued, his tone dripping with sarcasm. "This is the voice of the people. The current situation can only indicate one thing: you are truly unfit to be Hokage!"

As Ryan spoke, the sound of approaching footsteps filled the streets. The air was filled with high-pitched slogans.

"Overthrow the Third Hokage! Execute Shimura Danzo!"

The slogans echoed in Sarutobi Hiruzen's and others' ears as the villagers gathered, fueled by the incriminating evidence they had read.

The Third Hokage's once amiable image had been shattered, replaced by the perception of collusion with a villain.

As Sarutobi Hiruzen listened to the slogans around him, Shimura Danzo's face grew even gloomier. The fact that Sarutobi Hiruzen was being targeted was something he found hard to accept. He wondered why he was the one facing execution while being blamed for everything.

Sarutobi Hiruzen sensed Danzo's emotions and quickly patted his shoulder, his eyes filled with concern. In that moment, he felt a sense of panic. They couldn't afford for Danzo to have second thoughts now.

Fortunately, Danzo understood that it was not the time for hesitation. Despite his reluctance, he knew they had to present a united front.

"Hiruzen, let's do it!" Danzo urged. "The only option now is to eliminate Ryan and regain our positions as Hokage. We must frame him for our crimes!"

As Sarutobi Hiruzen observed the increasingly clear slogans, his face contorted with an internal struggle. However, when his eyes fell upon Ryan wearing the Hokage imperial robe, his desire for power and position overcame any doubts.

"Danzo, let's proceed!" he declared. "When the time comes, I will make you Hokage!"

With that, Sarutobi Hiruzen issued a direct order to the Sarutobi clan. Danzo, on the other hand, couldn't contain his excitement upon hearing these words.

"Move quickly! Shimura clan, follow my lead!" he commanded. "The Fourth Hokage has lost his integrity! Let's frame the former Hokage!"

As the slogans reverberated in the air, the two clans that were supposed to be held accountable suddenly became the so-called righteous party.

At that moment, the ninjas of the two clans appeared united and powerful, charging towards the surrounded Anbu.

However, this righteous facade was merely an illusion.

Ryan had nothing to say, and with a wave of his hand, the waiting Anbu members sprang into action.

Today's Sarutobi and Shimura clans were far from the powerful forces they would become in the future. They paled in comparison to the might of Anbu.

The Anbu swiftly launched an attack, overpowering the ninjas of the two clans. A ninja skilled in Water Style quickly unleashed a devastating water dragon jutsu, while another group utilized Lightning Style techniques.

The ninjas of the two clans were no match for the Anbu, and the battle quickly turned into a rout.

Panicked screams filled the air as the ninjas desperately tried to escape.

"Damn it! Don't run away! It'll only hasten your demise!" Ryan shouted, witnessing his own forces being effortlessly cut down.

Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzo grew increasingly anxious as they witnessed their people being mercilessly slaughtered. However, with Namikaze Minato and Hatake Sakumo keeping a close eye on them, they knew they had to act swiftly.

"What will you do next, Danzo?" Ryan asked, his voice laced with both Sarcasm and curiosity.

-------------------------------------------------------------

"Crack!"

The sound of shackles opening filled the air.

At that moment, Danzo revealed his hidden arm under his clothes.

Observing Danzo releasing the restraints, Sarutobi Hiruzen let out a sigh of relief.

"Danzo! Capture the thief first, capture the king first! Once we take down Ryan, everything will be easier to handle!"

"Hmph! You don't need to remind me!" Danzo responded with a cold snort.

In their current situation, there was only one way to defeat Ryan.

Upon hearing Hiruzen's plan, Danzo scoffed and immediately set his sights on Minato and Sakumo.

"I'll handle them both. You go deal with Ryan!"

Satisfied with Danzo's commitment, Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded in approval.

Indeed, in critical moments, Danzo had always proven to be his most reliable support.

Without wasting any time, Danzo took the lead and confronted Minato and Sakumo.

Using the Shadow Clone Technique, he created multiple clones that attacked the two Minatos simultaneously.

"Boom!"

Puffs of smoke filled the air as Danzo's clones executed various wind-style ninjutsu in perfect coordination with the main body.

Meanwhile, Sarutobi Hiruzen charged directly at Ryan.

"Brat! The position of Hokage is not something a child like you can handle!" he taunted.

Watched by Sarutobi Hiruzen, his figure disappeared in a few blurs, his hands swiftly forming seals.

"Fourth Hokage Project!"

"No need! You two focus on Danzo. His right arm holds a surprise," Ryan advised Minato and Sakumo.

As Sarutobi Hiruzen prepared to attack Ryan, Minato and Sakumo attempted to intervene, but Ryan stopped them in their tracks.

Unfazed by Sarutobi Hiruzen's presence, Ryan stood his ground, his expression unchanged.

Ryan's arrogance brought a sneer to Sarutobi Hiruzen's face.

"Hmph! Arrogant brat! I'll show you the strength of the strongest Hokage in Konoha!"

With his chakra concentrated in his mouth, Sarutobi Hiruzen unleashed the Fire Style: Fire Dragon Bomb.

A torrent of scorching flames erupted from his mouth, turning everything in its path into scorched earth.

However, Sarutobi Hiruzen's hands swiftly formed seals once again, knowing that this level of attack wouldn't harm a Kage-level opponent.

Determined, Sarutobi Hiruzen activated the Ninja Art: Earth Dragon Fire Ryu.

A ferocious earth dragon rose from the ground, accompanied by a surge of earth currents that rushed toward Ryan.

Simultaneously, Sarutobi Hiruzen exhaled a stream of fire, merging it with the earth flow.

The two elements blended together, resembling flowing magma.

But the assault didn't end there.

Sarutobi Hiruzen continued his hand seals, completing the technique: Ninja Art: Lightning Water Dragon Bomb.

A majestic water dragon materialized in an instant, crackling with lightning.

With a triumphant tone, Sarutobi Hiruzen sneered at Ryan, convinced that he had witnessed his opponent's defeat.

However, to his astonishment, Ryan suddenly moved.

Ryan swiftly clasped his palms together, creating countless inscriptions that appeared on his open hands.

"Old man, do you really think I haven't mastered this?"

"With the Flying Thunder God Technique, I'm not afraid of the First and Second Hokage crawling out of hell to find you!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen's face turned pale for a moment upon hearing Ryan's words. He became green with envy, jealousy, and hatred.

In that instant, he wished to tear Ryan's body into a thousand pieces.

As Sarutobi Hiruzen glared coldly at Ryan, awaiting his next move, everyone's attention was drawn to a loud noise in the sky.

The compound ninjutsu that Sarutobi Hiruzen had unleashed moments ago collided with Ryan's attack.

Explosions of scorching flames and flashing water dragons clashed in mid-air, creating billows of vapor.

The sky above Konoha grew darker as dense clouds formed from the water vapor.

Amidst the spectacle, Ryan's voice echoed across the battlefield.

"All Anbu, withdraw from the clan lands of the Sarutobi and Shimura clans!"

SUPPORT ME ON P*TREON.C*M/MARIONI TO READ CHAPTERS IN ADVANCE.

--------------------------------------------------

Upon hearing Ryan's order, the moment Anbu members who were still fighting or those who hadn't acted were just witnessing the play, everyone swiftly began to evacuate. Countless figures hurriedly left the territories of the Sarutobi and Shimura clans.

"Hmm?" "Did they retreat?" "Great! We survived!" "Wooooooooooooooooo!"

The terrified clansmen, who had resigned themselves to death, now embraced each other in joyous tears. Feeling the relief and happiness brought by being alive.

However, Sarutobi Hiruzen and Danzo couldn't fully rejoice. Having been hit by Namikaze Minato's thunder god, they felt slight discomfort.

"Hiruzen! What are you waiting for? Finish him off quickly! I can't hold on much longer!"

Danzo, struggling to endure, glanced at Sarutobi Hiruzen, who remained motionless. The anger in Danzo's eyes nearly overwhelmed him.

Hearing Danzo's cry, Sarutobi Hiruzen finally noticed Danzo's current state. At that moment, he saw Danzo's long robe torn into shreds and his right arm bandage completely unravelled. Revealing the arm engraved with the First Hokage's face. The number of Sharingan on his arm had diminished, with only a few remaining compared to the future where there would be many.

Observing Danzo's arm, Namikaze Minato and Hatake Sakumo no longer held back. They swiftly moved to strike Danzo's vital points.

This inflicted considerable pain upon Danzo, who would have been able to defend himself against numerous attacks. In an instant, he was overwhelmed and stumbled around like a lost dog. The three Sharingan secretly obtained on his arm were rendered useless, only serving as a lingering reminder.

Danzo's anger was justified.

Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't afford to delay any longer. He feared that procrastination would lead to further consequences. Thus, he chose to eliminate Danzo first.

"Pretending to be Innocent in this shinobi world!" " Masscaring clans out will expedite your demise!" "Die, you brat!"

As the Anbu members had nearly completed their withdrawal, Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't concern himself with other matters. Although he sensed something was amiss, he recognized that the die was cast and had to be rolled. Ryan had to be eliminated for the survival of the two clans.

With this thought in mind, Sarutobi Hiruzen promptly initiated his sealing technique.

Observing Sarutobi Hiruzen resuming his actions, Ryan no longer wished to waste time.

Whoosh!

The Flying Thunder God jutsu activated in an instant, accompanied by a burst of white light. Ryan, who had been far away, appeared beside Sarutobi Hiruzen within moments.

"So fast!" "You didn't throw the special kunai. How did you arrive here?"

Seeing Ryan instantly materialize before him, Sarutobi Hiruzen involuntarily narrowed his eyes. The hands that were previously forming seals unconsciously halted.

Naturally, Sarutobi Hiruzen remembered the Flying Thunder God Technique well. While it didn't deter him from researching it, he envisioned that one of his own clan members might possess extraordinary talent, thereby compelling him to study it diligently. However, he knew that the activation of the Flying Thunder God required a special formula. How could Ryan suddenly appear before him without a trace?

Just as Sarutobi Hiruzen pondered this, his gaze caught sight of a distinct white symbol on the ground.

"When!" Recognizing the symbol, Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't be more familiar with it—it was the distinctive mark of the Flying Thunder God Technique. But what he didn't expect was that Ryan had left it in this location. When had he done so?

Observing Sarutobi Hiruzen's aged face displaying a mix of emotions, Ryan couldn't help but smile confidently.

"Don't bother looking; the hidden marks I've left throughout Konoha over the years are enough to cover every corner. Your two clans are my primary concern."

Without giving Sarutobi Hiruzen a chance to react, Ryan swiftly turned his palms upward, conjuring a spinning chakra ball.

Rasengan!

Boom!

An explosive sound resonated as a large cloud of smoke billowed forth.

Ryan frowned in response. He was certain that he had struck Sarutobi Hiruzen with the Rasengan, but it clearly wasn't the old Hokage's body.

As the smoke dissipated, a battered figure emerged before everyone's eyes.

"Cough~!" "Hiruzen, what happened?" "I apologize Ape Demon. I unexpectedly brought you out!" Seeing the severely injured Ape Demon, Sarutobi Hiruzen felt a pang of guilt. Yet, it wasn't the summoning technique that had been activated; it was Ryan himself who suffered the consequences. Forced to summon the Ape Demon, Sarutobi Hiruzen had no other choice. However, observing the miserable state of the Ape Demon, it was clear that continuing the fight was futile.

With a puff of smoke, the Ape Demon suddenly reverted to its summoning state and fled back.

"You responded quite well." "But what do you plan to do next?"

Ryan hadn't expected to defeat Sarutobi Hiruzen with that blow. As he spoke, his gaze shifted toward the sky, which had turned completely dark. Stars glimmered amidst the thunderous clouds.

Realizing that everything was nearly prepared, Ryan extended his arm and pointed to the sky.

Squeak!

A bolt of lightning shot forth from Ryan's hand, disappearing into the clouds in an instant. Once the lightning vanished, the entire sky seemed to come alive.

Rumble!

A deafening roar echoed throughout the sky, capturing everyone's attention. The thunder in the heavens grew more intense.

"Wow, what kind of ninjutsu is this?" "It's terrifying! This is only the prelude, and it's already so powerful!" "If this is how it is when activated, then this ninjutsu is even more frightening!" "It seems to be the Lightning Style developed by the Fourth Hokage's project!" "What an extraordinary talent! To develop such a fearsome lightning-style ninjutsu!"

The major clans observing the battle were astonished, contemplating the connection between this grand battle and the Fourth Hokage.

"Watch this move!" "I'll use this ninjutsu to send you to meet the shinigami itself!" "Lightning Style: Kirin!"

As the words left his mouth, Ryan promptly combined the shape transformation of Lightning Style with the nature transformation of ninjutsu, activating his technique. In an instant, a thunderous unicorn materialized in the sky, its entire body composed of lightning.

With crimson eyes fixated on Sarutobi Hiruzen below, the creature emanated a menacing aura. Ryan no longer hesitated.

Guided by Chidori, the lightning unicorn descended rapidly toward Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"Damn it!" "I must dodge!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen succumbed to complete panic. Drawing upon his years of combat experience, he understood that failure to evade this attack would result in his demise.

As he witnessed the unicorn hurtling from the heavens, Sarutobi Hiruzen felt trapped, ensnared in the beast's aerial domain.

This technique was inevitable!

Roar!

With a thunderous roar, the dazzling lightning struck instantaneously!
