Naruto The Thunder Calamity

Right now, Madara only has the Rinnegan. 

However, with the Gedo Mazo that he can summon at any time, even though it doesn't have a tailed beast, Madara can enter the Six Paths mode whenever he wants.

Such power is something that can't be easily defeated without paying a price.

Although I also have the Ten-Tails, my body can't handle that kind of power. 

Becoming the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki... there's no precedent for that in the Otsutsuki family.

It's not that Otsutsuki Isshiki doesn't want to break the rules.

It's just that... after becoming the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki, how would I plant the God Tree? Sealing it away might be done in a flash, but pulling it out again? That would kill me!

Otsutsuki Isshiki's goal is to plant the God Tree, harvest the God Fruit, and live a peaceful life as an intergalactic farmer.

Not to recklessly become the so-called Ten-Tails Jinchuriki.

The Ten-Tails Jinchuriki isn't necessarily stronger than eating the God Tree's fruit.

The most important thing is that the latter can be used repeatedly. 

Each time, you just need to sacrifice one Otsutsuki.

Thinking of this, Otsutsuki Isshiki gritted his teeth in anger.

Otsutsuki Kaguya, that bastard, she really deserves to die! Although sacrificing her was indeed a kind of sacrifice, it was just losing her personality and freedom for a short time.

All you needed to do was find a suitable "vessel" and leave a "mark" on it. 

She didn't even need to die.

This process didn't even require waiting until the God Tree bore fruit to fully recover.

But this fool... she actually betrayed me like this.

The problem is, you betrayed me, and you still managed to complete the task of planting the God Tree.

Alright, the God Tree was indeed planted, and the God Fruit was indeed harvested.

But what happened? Otsutsuki Kaguya ate the God Fruit herself.

At that time, Otsutsuki Isshiki was completely stunned by what Otsutsuki Kaguya did.

Miss, do you really not know how strict the family rules are? Fine, you ate it, but then you ran off.

And you actually stayed in this world.

What? In your mind, is the Otsutsuki family just you now? Well, honestly, Otsutsuki Isshiki still appreciated what Otsutsuki Kaguya did, to some extent.

Because from a certain perspective, after Otsutsuki Kaguya ate the God Tree fruit, Otsutsuki Isshiki basically had no chance of turning things around.

So when he saw that Otsutsuki Kaguya, that idiot, was willing to stay in this world, Otsutsuki Isshiki was actually quite happy.

Otsutsuki Isshiki was eager to see the family send someone to deal with Otsutsuki Kaguya.

At this point, Otsutsuki Isshiki still thought that even though Otsutsuki Kaguya was stupid, at least she had a good time for over a thousand years.

Wasn't that good?

That was good.

But later, Otsutsuki Kaguya's actions started to confuse Otsutsuki Isshiki.

She married a local, had children, and even had two of them.

Well, everyone has their own goals, and Otsutsuki Isshiki was reserved about it.

But when Otsutsuki Kaguya was sealed on the moon by her own children, Otsutsuki Isshiki couldn't stay calm.

Are you... serious? This world was originally a simple world.

But because of Otsutsuki Kaguya, this fool, so many complications were created.

What was supposed to be a simple planting mission turned into this mess because of Otsutsuki Kaguya.

Not only did a Uchiha Madara appear, someone who could almost change his last name to Otsutsuki, but he also started messing around with Senjutsu in a Renaissance style. 

Now, facing these two, it's pointless. Even if Otsutsuki Kaguya suddenly exploded and came out from the moon, it wouldn't make a difference. 

This is really... exhausting.....

I just wanted to... simply plant a tree! 

Originally, Otsutsuki Isshiki could leisurely watch as the ninja world stirred up. 

He was looking for the right moment to start planting the God Tree again. 

The plan was so simple. 

Travel the ninja world, see if there's a suitable vessel, and maybe find an Otsutsuki who could become the Ten-Tails' living sacrifice. 

There was a sense of relaxation in that simplicity. 

But with the sudden appearance of the Senjutsu system, Otsutsuki Isshiki couldn't stay calm. 

Well, well, now that someone dares to mess with natural energy, won't that end up causing trouble for the family later? 

So, Otsutsuki Isshiki had to step in. 

Of course, saying it like this might be a little exaggerated. 

But Isshiki had no choice but to start worrying. 

After all, as a completely independent power system from chakra, Senjutsu had already started to threaten the Otsutsuki family's plan to plant the God Tree. 

Other things didn't matter to Otsutsuki Isshiki, but planting the God Tree was non-negotiable. 

That's the bottom line for an interstellar fruit farmer! 

In this world, just a frog, a white snake, and a slug are enough. 

Anything more would be rude. 

That's also why Otsutsuki Isshiki had to step in to help Uchiha Madara get rid of Uchiha Raijin. 

For Isshiki, Uchiha Madara didn't matter at all. 

He was just a fool who got tricked by Black Zetsu. 

In the end, he'd probably just release Otsutsuki Kaguya. 

At that point, Isshiki could casually find a "vessel," hide for another thousand years. 

So what if Kaguya takes over the world? 

What does it have to do with him? 

Besides, even if Kaguya does come out, how long can she even live? 

What Kaguya did has already become a shame for the Otsutsuki family. 

The family wouldn't let her live. 

Save his mother? 

Black Zetsu, that fool, probably doesn't even understand what his mother will face. 

So, it's the Senjutsu faction, led by Uchiha Raijin, that is the real concern for Otsutsuki Isshiki. 

Though his rash interference caused a temporary truce between Uchiha Raijin and Uchiha Madara, 

That doesn't mean there's no way out. 

Even though Uchiha Raijin and Uchiha Madara called a ceasefire, 

His existence was now exposed to both of them. 

But one thing: he was alone. No matter where he was or what he was doing, neither Uchiha Raijin nor Uchiha Madara knew. 

Search? 

Forget Konohagakure, if he didn't want to be found, even Black Zetsu wouldn't be able to locate him. 

So, there was no need to worry about Uchiha Raijin and Uchiha Madara teaming up to target him. 

Next, it was important to prepare an escape route. 

That meant finding a vessel. 

Otsutsuki Isshiki also kept Uchiha Raijin's relationship with Tsunade in mind. 

The child born from the union of the Senju and Uchiha clans might not be on par with the Otsutsuki, but it was still the closest bloodline to the Otsutsuki in the ninja world. 

At the very least, it was possible to extend his life by another thousand years while boosting his current power by about 20-30%.

Finally, it's time to look for an opportunity to break them down one by one.

Otsutsuki Isshiki slowly exhaled a breath of stale air, his eyes flashing with sharp light.

Maybe... I need an organization.

...

"No way..."

Looking at the stretcher covered with white cloth, Uchiha Tatsu's face stiffened. He seemed reluctant as he turned to Tsunade and asked.

Hearing this, Tsunade's expression grew dim. She sincerely spoke to Uchiha Tatsu.

The dim expression was fake, but the apology was genuine.

Although recent research by Raijin had nearly confirmed that natural energy could replace negative emotions to open the eyes, the process would be very long.

Moreover, the best age for practicing Senjutsu is around fourteen or fifteen years old. Only at this age can a child's mental strength reach the level needed to control natural energy.

So, some of the traditions of the Uchiha family still had no signs of fading.

If possible, Tsunade also hoped her children could gain more power.

The process might be painful, but in this world, false pain is always better than real pain. And strength is the true foundation of confidence.

After all, no matter how strong she or Raijin is, no matter how fast Raijin's reactions are or how timely his appearance, it would never be as valuable as them having power themselves.

Of course, Tsunade also didn't know if her children wanted this power.

Or if they even wanted to gain power through this method.

After all, this was just what Tsunade thought was right.

Thus, Tsunade's apology was heartfelt.

"Isn't that the Thunder Sword Saint of Konoha? How..." 

Uchiha Tatsu watched this scene, his eyes gradually turning bright red.

Death was not unfamiliar to Uchiha Tatsu.

He understood what death meant.

It meant that no more careless idiots would mockingly smile and call him "young master" in a disgusting tone.

It meant that he could never ride on that shoulder again to reach the leaves of a tree he couldn't touch even if he jumped.

It meant… he no longer had a father!

"Is Uchiha Madara really that strong?"

Ryuri bit his lip and asked Tsunade, his voice trembling uncontrollably.

In his bloodshot eyes, black energy seemed to be gathering.

"In the fight with Uchiha Madara, a strange ninja appeared. He was very strong and attacked me. Your father... protected me..." 

Tsunade bit her lip and spoke to her two children.

Everything was true, just with some changes in the outcome.

Thus, it felt very believable.

"He was excellent."

Ryuri quietly closed his eyes after hearing this.

Tatsu opened his mouth but couldn't say a word.

In his now red eyes, two Tomoe appeared.

Tsunade quickly noticed this.

She was about to act, hoping to push them toward the Three Tomoe, when suddenly, a voice rang out.

"What... happened?"

Raijin, who had returned with the three Jinchuriki, looked at the scene before him with confusion.

For some reason, Raijin felt a strange sense of familiarity upon seeing the heavy atmosphere and the tear streaks on Tatsu and Ryuri's faces.

A gentle, familiar, and warm voice echoed.

Tatsu and Ryuri almost instinctively looked toward Uchiha Raijin.

When Raijin locked eyes with those two familiar Three Tomoe Sharingan, he immediately understood where the sense of familiarity came from. 

Ah, well. 

As expected of the Uchiha clan's signature style. 

Raijin vaguely remembered that Uzumaki Nagato's Rinnegan had also been awakened in a similar way, spurred by Uchiha Suisei. 

The name Uchiha Motohide would undoubtedly be etched into the Uchiha clan's history, remembered by every member of the Uchiha family. 

"You guys carry on." 

Without waiting for anyone to speak, Raijin turned around, gave a knowing glance to the three Jinchuriki by his side, and walked off as if nothing had happened. 

"Ahhh!!!" 

With a loud yell, Raijin was tackled to the ground by two people from behind the next moment. 

"Hey, hey, hey! What does this have to do with me? I don't even know what's going on!" 

Pinned to the ground, Raijin flailed helplessly, trying to fend off punches from Tatsu and Ryuri while explaining. 

"I only went to Sunagakure and Iwagakure to grab a few Jinchuriki..." 

However, Raijin's voice was quickly drowned out by the chaotic punches of the two. 

Overwhelmed by the rollercoaster of emotions, the two kids had completely lost their composure. 

Of course, they hadn't completely lost their senses—they dared to attack Raijin but wouldn't dream of laying a hand on Tsunade. 

This wasn't about strength; it was because, relatively speaking, Tsunade had... a bit of a temper. 

And so, on this day, the Lightning Sword Saint of Konohagakure was thoroughly beaten up by two kids who hadn't even graduated from the ninja academy. 

Uchiha Tatsu and Uchiha Ryuri had successfully accomplished something that even Uchiha Madara might have struggled with. 

After the beating, Raijin even had to prepare some delicious treats to calm the two kids down. 

Heh... 

Calm them down. 

How absurd... 

Watching this scene unfold, Suisei raised an eyebrow with a bitter smile, but there wasn't the slightest hint of amusement in her expression. 

After all, she also had a little troublemaker at home to deal with. 

In this world, strength can solve most problems. 

The only thing that strength is completely powerless against is emotions. 

For instance, Raijin could shake the heavens and earth with a wave of his hand, but he was utterly helpless in the face of Tatsu and Ryuri's onslaught. 

But... isn't that how it should be? 

Senju Tobirama observed the scene before him, then turned and walked away. 

He had witnessed everything that transpired during that battle. 

Now, it was time to come up with a proper plan to address the situation. 

But there was no need to rush. 

Life-and-death battles are mentally draining, and what everyone needed most now was rest. 

---

Sitting in his wide chair, Madara felt a sense of frustration like never before. 

The Rinnegan, the legendary eyes of the Sage of Six Paths. 

Even with such eyes, he still couldn't see through the mysteries of this world. 

Hashirama, is everything I'm doing right now truly the right path?
