Naruto: I Can Take People Through the Ninja World in the Future-Chapter 460: Abandon Illusions, Prepare for War!

"So, it really needs to be explained properly."

Minato nodded, understanding the situation.

Fortunately, this time, after summoning the First and Second Hokage with Edo Tensei, they were used to fight against the enemy invasion and protect the village.

Otherwise, the summoned Tobirama and Hashirama might have rebelled and attacked Orochimaru.

"Minato, how about you? It seems you've been to the moon?"

"Yes."

"What's the situation there?"

"It's a bit complicated. I'll explain it in detail later."

At that moment, Fugaku also arrived.

"Minato..."

"Shisui!"

Seeing Minato, Fugaku also felt relieved, but he soon noticed the severe stab wound on Shisui's chest, and his heart immediately grew anxious.

"He won't die. A stab wound like this can be healed by Tsunade."

"If it really can't be healed, I can also help!"

Orochimaru smiled, trying to calm Fugaku, telling him not to panic.

A fatal injury like this, as long as the person isn't dead yet, with so many talented people in Konoha, Shisui could definitely be saved.

Even if he really died, Parallel World 3 Orochimaru could bring him back!

"Good, good!"

Fugaku felt relieved again. He was truly afraid that Shisui would die just like that.

Otherwise, the future hopes of the Uchiha clan would rest solely on his dutiful son, Itachi. Just thinking about it made Fugaku shudder.

◆━⊰✧⊱━◆

"Minato, how's the situation over there? Is there any chance for peace..."

Fugaku still wanted to ask, but after seeing Shisui's severe injuries and Kakashi's condition.

He had already guessed the outcome and chose to remain silent.

"The situation on the moon is very pessimistic. Our enemy is extremely cunning and cruel, more so than the Second Hokage..."

"Huh?"

"This is what happened..."

Minato briefly recounted their experiences and encounters on the moon.

Fugaku and the others were shocked after hearing it.

They hadn't expected that in just a few hours, Minato had already caused such a huge commotion in the Ōtsutsuki's moon headquarters.

But what surprised them even more was the plans and evil deeds of the enemy leader, Ōtsutsuki Aoto.

From kidnapping, deception, ambush, fake negotiations, to sudden attacks and hostage threats...

Almost all of Minato's plans were ruined!

It turned out that the enemy on the moon already knew all our information!

Today, if it weren't for them not accounting for the existence of Parallel World 3 Orochimaru and Shisui's madness, Aoto would likely have achieved a great victory!

Even if Konoha Village could withstand the enemy's sudden attack, the casualties and losses would have been ten times worse...

And if the Ōtsutsuki clan on the moon had truly obtained many Byakugan from the Hyūga clan, completed their genes, and merged them into the Giant Tenseigan.

The consequences would have been even harder to predict.

The entire ninja world would face an enemy stronger than the Ōtsutsuki on the moon, possibly even on the level of the Six Paths.

Fortunately, all of this had been stopped, and Aoto's plans had failed.

"The enemy on the moon knows us very well?"

"They've been spying on the entire ninja world, so of course they know us well. In terms of information, the enemy has a complete advantage. No wonder we're struggling."

"What about Kakashi? You said he was controlled by the enemy?"

"Yes. I don't know what method they used, so I didn't dare to release him, fearing he might be controlled again."

"Minato, leave it to me. I'll handle it."

Orochimaru licked his lips, offering to help Minato.

"Alright, I'll leave him to you."

Minato didn't hesitate, handing Kakashi over to Orochimaru, confident that Orochimaru could definitely heal Kakashi perfectly.

"Wait, there's a problem!"

Tsunade stopped them.

"What? Shisui..."

"His injuries aren't the main issue, but this kid seems to have been poisoned too!"

"Poisoned?"

"Yes!"

"Damn Ōtsutsuki Aoto, even using poison? What kind of poison?"

Everyone was shocked, not expecting the enemy to be so cruel, even resorting to such dirty tactics on a captured child.

No wonder Aoto wasn't panicked when Shisui was rescued. It turned out he had already prepared a backup plan.

Even the food was just bait. From the moment they were captured, Aoto had already placed restrictions and poison on them.

"I don't know. Further examination and testing are needed."

"Can it be cured?"

"It should be possible, but it will take time. We might also need Lady Katsuyu's help."

"That's good!"

Minato felt relieved. As long as it could be cured. But his hatred for the Ōtsutsuki on the moon and their leader, Aoto, burned even fiercer. Such a cruel and cunning enemy—if they weren't killed, he wouldn't be able to sleep peacefully!

◆━⊰✧⊱━◆

"Fugaku, what about the casualties in the village?"

"Still being counted. Rough estimates are over 500 dead, more than 2,000 severely injured..."

"So many?"

"The enemy's strength was too overwhelming. Once they entered the village, they immediately started slaughtering. Our ninjas couldn't hold them off..."

Fortunately, the timely assistance from Parallel World 3 Orochimaru and the others arrived. Otherwise, Konoha's casualties would have doubled!

Minato fell silent.

Standing on the high walls, he looked at the ruins and corpses in the village, as well as the many villagers busy rescuing and helping.

His heart was filled with anger and sorrow.

Even during the most difficult times of the Third Great Ninja War, Konoha had only been attacked up to the village gates, never inside the village.

But now it had been destroyed by those bastards from the moon.

As Hokage, he had vowed to protect all the villagers, to protect everyone he loved.

But now he couldn't even defend the village gates, not even as well as Parallel World 3 Orochimaru!

In fact, he had even fantasized about making peace with those moon bastards!

Thinking about it, Minato's hatred and regret grew even stronger.

It turned out that from the very beginning, there should have been no hope or compromise with the enemy!

"Fugaku!"

"Huh? Minato?"

"Immediately arrange for the casualties and the families of the deceased."

"I understand."

"Also, gather all our forces!"

"Are we going to war?"

"Yes! In five days, we'll launch an attack, heading straight for the moon, avenging all the heroes who fell in this battle! We'll annihilate the enemy completely!"

Minato spoke resolutely, his eyes filled with determination.

"Understood! But how will we get to the moon?"

"They've always been hiding in the ninja world, so there must be a passage they use to descend. Now, with so many prisoners, we should be able to find that passage!"

"I understand! Leave it to me. I'll interrogate all the information!"

Fugaku nodded, his usually expressionless face now etched with the word "ruthless."

"By the way. According to the Tsuchikage, they also want to join the war? What about the other villages?"

"Send people to inform them to join the war!"

"What if they refuse?"

"If they refuse, then they don't need to exist anymore!"

Minato was very firm.

This time, Konoha would mobilize all its forces and would not allow any threats to remain in the ninja world.

If the other villages didn't want to join the war, to avoid any risks of Konoha being attacked again.

Even if it was just a small risk, Minato was prepared to destroy them first.

Better the enemy bleeds than us!

After saying this, Minato immediately left.

"Minato, where are you going?"

"I'm going to meet the First Hokage and the others!"

Minato walked toward Parallel World 3 Orochimaru and the Edo Tensei.

Having made his decision, Minato would mobilize all his strength.

Even if it meant using the power of the First Hokage and the others, disturbing the peace of the deceased, Minato swore to destroy all the Ōtsutsuki enemies on the moon!
