Naruto: Long Live Hokage's
Chapter 143: The Centennial Supper and Fear
The New Year was approaching, and the Whirlpool Land was still as lively as ever.
People were always guessing about Uzumaki Masahiko's age, and Uzumaki Village announced that they were going to have their serious birthday party, which caused an uproar in the Shinobi World.
The Warring States Period ended thirty years ago, and at the time, it was claimed that the average life expectancy was thirty years. It would be great if you lived to be 60, and a miracle that would surprise others to live for 70 years.
Although the era had ended, no one had ever heard of someone who lived more than 80 years.
Masahiko was not worried about people who knew the secret of his longevity. With his strength, no one dared to come after that, except of course Madara, and Mito, who often caused him trouble, but obviously, he would not hurt him.
In the past few days, envoys from every country had arrived one after another; even Daimyo from the Thunder Country had come alone. This year, he began to understand how weak Kumogakure was, and it was a good thing to pay Uzumaki for protection, at least this would keep other villages away because Jinchuriki Hachibi was almost unstable.
Masahiko goes for a walk with the visitors, wondering how many people expect him to die soon.
“Unfortunately it won't happen.” Thinking of this, Masahiko laughed.
On January 1, Konoha's 32nd centenary banquet was held as scheduled.
There are many visitors. In addition to Thunder Daimyo, the more “weight” characters are Hiruzen, Mito, Chiyo, and several other village leaders, including Kakuzu.
On the battlefield against Sunagakure, Konoha hired Takigakure troops to help them, and it succeeded.
The hatred of war temporarily subsided in front of Masahiko, no one dared to block the harmony, and celebrated with him.
Of course, people who don't know what to say in this kind of event will always be there. Unexpectedly, the leader of Kusagakure looked into Masahiko's eyes and wished him a hundred years old. With a wave from Masahiko, Kenichiro kicked him out.
During the celebration, Masahiko stood up with a smile, “During my life, I have held many birthday parties. The next one is my 150th birthday. At that time, I'll invite you all, and I hope you can come and celebrate again with me.”
This sentence shocked everyone, only Mito shook his head with a smile, which made Masahiko speechless.
“I'll be there,” Kakuzu said. It seemed that he was confident in his alternate method of eternal life.
Masahiko was only joking; he did not expect anyone to respond.
He nodded, “I hope you can live until then.”
After that, the banquet began, and Masahiko was no longer interested in speaking.
The age on the status bar had become 47 years old, the exact same age as him discovering the secrets of his system. More than fifty years passed, it seemed like he was reincarnated again. Other than his increased strength, he seemed to have done a lot of things, but also done nothing.
In his mind, Masahiko's memories of the first 48 years he lived here became hazy. He could not even remember the faces of his father and brother anymore. However, the next fifty-two colorful years, the extinguishing of the Kaguya Clan, destroying Shiki Fuijin, establishing Konoha, witnessing the Final Valley Battle, saving Tobirama, saving Kagami…
“So, after all, I still do a lot of things.” Masahiko sighed emotionally.
The celebrations went well, and the visitors eventually returned to their respective countries, while some members of the Uzumaki Clan kept the place clean.
Masahiko remembered something and called Yuriko to ask for clarification.
“Yuriko, has any child named Nagato been born in the last two years?”
Yuriko froze for a moment, “Down, are you looking for her?”
Masahiko lied, “When I was on Mount Myoboku, the Big Sage Frog had a prophecy. He said that a genius would be born in our Village, named Uzumaki Nagato, and I would guide him personally.
“Is that so? I will check.” Yuriko responded excitedly.
Two days later, the news shocked Masahiko.
“No... maybe he was born by another clan outside the village?”
“Wait... we have no clan outside the village..” Masahiko's expression suddenly changed, “No way!”
“Sensei, what's wrong? Maybe I just haven't found him, or maybe he hasn't been born.” Yuriko looked at him strangely.
Masahiko hesitated for a moment, then he looked Yuriko in the eyes, “I can't help but think that if she is so talented, she should be your descendant, Yuriko.”
“I have to find Yuna and bring her back.”
Yuriko froze for a moment, then immediately reacted, “Sensei, Nagato, will not.”.
Masahiko nodded, then flew into the sky, landed again in Uzumaki's arsenal, and took out Yuna's Chakra Shield bracelet, thinking it might be useful.
After putting it on, Masahiko went straight to the Land of Rain.
Rarely was the Rain Country not raining, and many Shinobi underwent postwar reconstruction.
Masahiko looked for the intact houses, and examined them door to door.
Hiding his chakra, Masahiko evaded all the patrol ninjas and roamed the civilian area several times.
“No? Am I wrong?”
Masahiko looked dumbfounded, “The girl did not live as a virgin in the slums, right?”
Masahiko continued to burn, and after half an hour, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
“So they're here, huh? Her husband is just a civilian? He disagrees to marry Sakumo and elects civilians instead. Why do geniuses always have to act weird?”
“At first I wanted you to give birth to Kakashi, but you gave me Nagato.”.
However, the moment he saw little Nagato, Masahiko started to feel anxious.
“No wonder he didn't show up in the Second World War, he watched Nagato all the time.” Masahiko frowned, this “Zetsu, I won't feel relaxed until he's dealt.”
Masahiko gritted her teeth, then finally made up her mind.
“I don't care if the plot collapses, this matter must be resolved!”
“If I don't take my chance now, I'll regret it in a few years. And who knows, maybe Black Zetsu secretly has plans for me too.”
“It had nothing to do with Yuna. Coincidentally the opportunity has come now .. “
Masahiko made up his mind, he was still a little hesitant, but did not meet Yuna directly.
Masahiko took three special Shuriken that he had not used for a long time from his sleeves. As he became stronger, he rarely used these skillful things, but now seemed to be the perfect time. He placed the three around Yuna's house, forming a triangle on the ground.
Masahiko flew into the sky, then opened his perception to its maximum range.
“Because I wear this bracelet, Black Zetsu can't see me. I might not be able to see it, but this Shuriken will help me react in time. As long as he dares to appear, I will kill him!” Masahiko muttered as he closed his eyes in concentration.
“As for Six Paths... Well, what happens will happen!”
