Naruto: Betrayed From The Start

---

At this time, within the Amegakure.

Hanzo of the Salamander, with a gloomy expression, listened to his subordinates report the events that had transpired in the country recently.

"Sir Hanzo, we can't let the Three Great Hidden Villages continue to run rampant on our land."

"Just this month, over a hundred civilians have died due to the fallout from the battles between the Three Great Hidden Villages."

"These people are all civilians of the Land of Rain. They haven't done anything wrong. They were eating dinner at home, and suddenly, a Water Release attack came, their entire house was destroyed, and they died."

"They shouldn't be victims of the struggles between the Three Great Hidden Villages."

In the office, there were five of Hanzo's close subordinates. At this moment, each of their faces held a strong sense of hatred.

Hatred for the ninjas from the great hidden villages who didn't consider their small country.

After listening to his subordinates, Hanzo remained silent for a long time before making a decision. He instructed three of his five subordinates to each carry his letter to the Hidden Stone, the Hidden Sand, and Konoha, the three great hidden villages, and present his letter to their respective Kage.

If possible, Hanzo still hoped to resolve this matter peacefully. He truly didn't want to resort to force.

Because no one knew the strength of the Five Great Hidden Villages better than him.

In his youth, he had strived to elevate the Land of Rain to the same level as the Five Great Nations. He had traveled across the Five Great Nations and other small countries, constantly improving his strength and challenging everyone.

Ultimately, his immense strength was recognized by the ninja world, earning him the title of "Demi-God of the Ninja World."

He thought that becoming a Demi-God of the Ninja World would allow the Land of Rain to join the ranks of the Five Great Nations.

However, the strength of one person is ultimately limited.

He was only a Demi-God of the Ninja World, not the God of the Ninja World.

Therefore, the Land of Rain remained the Land of Rain. Even with his strength, the Land of Rain's influence hadn't increased.

Finally, he understood.

Only by producing more strong individuals like himself in the Land of Rain could the Land of Rain have the qualifications to engage in equal dialogue with the Five Great Nations.

So, for all these years, he had been diligently and actively training more ninjas.

The facts proved that his approach was correct.

Under his training and influence, a large number of ninjas who met the standards of the Five Great Hidden Villages emerged from the Rain Village, and there were also a considerable number of Chunin and Genin.

Although they still couldn't match the strength of any single village among the Five Great Hidden Villages, combined with the Land of Rain's unique geographical environment and his Salamander Poison, he believed that as long as they were within the Land of Rain, no one could defeat them.

But now, his confidence was being challenged.

"Let's wait and see."

Hanzo sighed inwardly. As the Demi-God of the Ninja World, his confidence couldn't be challenged, but as the leader of the Rain Village, he had to consider the villagers and the people of the Land of Rain.

If they rashly went to war with the Three Great Hidden Villages, even if they won in the end, the Land of Rain would suffer the most.

If they could avoid fighting, they should.

But if it came down to fighting, Hanzo wouldn't hesitate. His title of "Demi-God of the Ninja World" wasn't just a boast. He had earned it through his travels and battles across various countries.

Half a month later.

The envoys sent to the Three Great Hidden Villages returned with the responses from their respective Kage to Hanzo.

The letters included the Third Hokage, the Kazekage, and the Tsuchikage, all expressing a degree of respect for Hanzo, the Demi-God of the Ninja World.

This also showed that Hanzo's strength was indeed recognized by the Five Kage.

Ninjutsu, Taijutsu, Kenjutsu, Body Flicker Technique, Summoning Jutsu, including poison creation, as well as combat experience and talent.

Hanzo had no weaknesses in any aspect, reaching the pinnacle of the ninja world.

None of the Five Kage of the Five Great Nations dared to say they could confidently defeat Hanzo.

To this kind of strong individual at the pinnacle of the ninja world, the Third Hokage, Ōnoki, and the Third Kazekage all showed a degree of respect.

But... it was only a degree of respect.

Regarding Hanzo's request that they withdraw all their ninjas from the Land of Rain, all three Kage remained silent.

They only said that they had already given orders to their ninjas in the Land of Rain to avoid harming civilians during battles as much as possible.

If any buildings were damaged, they would also compensate for any damage caused by them.

Besides Konoha expressing its intention to withdraw as soon as the Hidden Sand and Hidden Stone withdrew from the Land of Rain.

Neither the Hidden Sand nor the Hidden Stone mentioned withdrawing.

This left Ōnoki, who was in the Hidden Stone Village in the Land of Earth, puzzled.

"What's going on with the Hidden Sand?" Ōnoki asked his subordinate ANBU ninja.

"Report, Tsuchikage-sama, we haven't found any reason for the Hidden Sand's presence in the Land of Rain yet," the ANBU ninja honestly replied.

Ōnoki was even more confused.

The reason they had mobilized ninjas on the border and entered the Land of Rain was to attract Konoha's attention, providing cover for their extermination of the Uzumaki clan.

Besides the Hidden Stone, the Hidden Cloud and the Hidden Mist were also putting pressure on Konoha in various small countries bordering Konoha to attract attention.

Their three hidden villages' plans were going smoothly.

Now, the Hidden Sand suddenly did this, making it seem like they were colluding with them.

While having the Hidden Sand join wasn't necessarily a bad thing, it would make it easier to exterminate the Uzumaki clan.

But it also meant sharing the spoils.

The three hidden villages had already divided most of the spoils. Ōnoki didn't want to have another one join in.

This was also the intention of the Raikage and Mizukage.

So, the question was,

What was the Hidden Sand's sudden involvement in the Land of Rain about?

Unclear.

Ōnoki was very confused.

To avoid any unexpected events that he couldn't react to, he could only instruct the ANBU to keep a close eye on the Hidden Sand's every move.

After the hidden villages of the Land of Fire, Land of Earth, and Land of Wind refused to withdraw their ninjas from the Land of Rain, the atmosphere on the continent of the ninja world moved rapidly towards a Great Ninja War.

In fact, at this point.

The major hidden villages all realized that a Great Ninja War was inevitable and were secretly preparing for it.

At the same time, an old man hidden in the shadows was silently observing everything happening in the ninja world, especially the Uzumaki clan in the Land of Whirlpools.

The old man's eyes, with a black circle within a black circle, were purple-blue and were waiting for their vessel.

Konoha.

All the ninjas and major ninja clans felt the approaching war.

Basic supplies like pills, explosive tags, kunai, and shuriken were being actively stockpiled.

Major ninja clans with secret techniques were also actively preparing related secret technique supplies.

Everyone was ready for war.

Within the Uchiha clan, including the clan head, everyone looked like bloodthirsty wolves, their eyes crimson, licking their lips with bloodlust.

Everything the Uchiha clan had lost, they would win back in this Great Ninja War.

All the ninjas of the Uchiha clan were looking forward to war.

Root Base.

While everyone else in the outside world was preparing for war, Danzo was engrossed in his experiments with the Sharingan and Kenshi's body.

But his experimental results weren't ideal.

As the year he had agreed with Hiruzen was approaching, Danzo still hadn't gotten the answers he wanted from Kenshi's cells and Chakra.

He still couldn't break Kenshi's Chakra's immunity to genjutsu.

In Laboratory One, Danzo looked at the Sharingan in the glass tank filled with solution and the tube of Kenshi's cell solution beside it.

He stared for a long time, pondering deeply.

Finally, he sighed, admitting defeat.

He had tried all the experiments he could think of, but he had gotten nothing.

It was at this moment that Danzo realized that his talent for research might be... truly mediocre.

He needed someone with a talent for research to help him achieve what he wanted.

He already had a target in mind.

But now, with war approaching, it would have to wait.

Danzo turned and left Laboratory One. As he was about to walk out, his gaze casually swept over the door of Laboratory Zero.

It was this glance that suddenly gave Danzo inspiration.

"Since ordinary methods can't break the special jutsu state of that child's Chakra, wouldn't the First Hokage's cells, with their terrifying invasive ability, be able to break it?"

Thinking about the scenes of people's body cells being drained, their Chakra being devoured, and finally turning into a tree after transplanting the First Hokage's cells.

Danzo became more and more convinced that his inspiration was workable.
