Chapter 608: The Power of the Younger Generation

"Naruto, impressive, right? It still has to be us Uchiha." Seeing Shisui effortlessly defeat his opponent, Sasuke couldn’t help but show off to Naruto.

Naruto looked at Sasuke’s proud face and couldn’t help but make a speechless expression. Anyone who didn’t know better would think Sasuke himself had gone up and won the match.

"Shisui-senpai is impressive, what are you showing off for?" Naruto didn’t indulge Sasuke in the slightest.

"Just wait. Tomorrow, I’ll go ask Big Brother Shisui to teach me Genjutsu. By then, I’ll make you smash your head against the ground while laughing like an idiot." Sasuke immediately retorted and issued a challenge.

"Then go learn it if you have the guts. With your half-baked Genjutsu, you still want to deal with me? I have Kurama to help me, so I’m not afraid of Genjutsu at all!" Naruto said fearlessly.

"Do you think the Genjutsu of our Uchiha’s Sharingan is the same as those ordinary, common Genjutsu? Even a Tailed Beast won’t be able to block it." Although Sasuke didn’t know whether Sharingan Genjutsu could really do that, he obviously couldn’t afford to lose his momentum at a time like this.

"Then just wait and see." Naruto appeared confident on the surface, but he was also a little uncertain inside. He had learned about the Nine-Tails’ dark history as well. Maybe Sharingan Genjutsu really could work.

’I’ll ask Uncle Nagasawa later if he has any good solutions.’ Naruto thought to himself. Sasuke could go ask Shisui, so of course he could also ask Nagasawa for advice.

"I see you two seem to have plenty of free time. How about I arrange some work for you?" Nagasawa suddenly appeared in front of the two.

"What kind of work?" Naruto asked curiously.

"It’s basically dealing with terrorists. But for safety reasons, Naruto, you’ll have to act together with Minato. As for Sasuke, you can go with Itachi." Nagasawa thought for a moment before speaking.

Although their combat strength was excessive, there was no harm in giving the two of them some training. One had to know that at this point in the original timeline, the two of them were already about to fight Kaguya. Under his guidance, Naruto and Sasuke were even stronger than in the original.

Hearing that he could fight alongside his father, Naruto immediately agreed. He had never fought an enemy alongside his father before, so he was looking forward to it very much.

Sasuke also quickly nodded. He could finally show off his skills in front of his brother.

After notifying the young ninja who were strong enough, Nagasawa began the next step. All the preparations had already been completed. Next was the stage of closing the net.

It would have been fine if only one came or if the main body didn’t come. Since both of them had come, they shouldn’t even think about leaving.

"An unexpected incident has occurred. All participating contestants, please gather in the arena."

Just as everyone was waiting for the list of contestants for the next battle to be announced, the broadcast instead instructed all the contestants at the venue to enter the arena. As long as they still had the ability to move, they were required to enter the arena.

"Lord Shuichi, should I go down?" Zangshi looked toward Shuichi. He was also a participating contestant.

"Go. After you go down, don’t rush to attack. Use those natives to test their strength first. If possible, kill them all." Shuichi said indifferently.

At this moment, Shuichi had already begun circulating his power, ready to make a move at any time. It might be to attack and kill the enemy, or it might be to flee directly.

Shuichi glanced at Nagasawa, who was sitting together with the Five Kage. Nagasawa sensed something, smiled, and made no other move.

After all the participating contestants had gathered, Kakashi walked to the front of all the contestants.

The numerous contestants all looked at Kakashi. They had already been informed of some information, and quite a few of them were even Shadow Clones rather than their real bodies. The live broadcast also focused its close-up on Kakashi.

"I have some very unfortunate news to tell everyone here. The Martial Arts Tournament will have to be temporarily suspended." After saying this, Kakashi paused for a moment before continuing.

"I believe that everyone who has been watching the matches for so long should already have some guesses in their hearts."

The viewers watching the live broadcast secretly nodded. Of course they knew. Those people had behaved so arrogantly that anyone with eyes could see something was wrong.

"That’s right. Our Shinobi World has once again suffered an invasion by aliens!" Kakashi said solemnly.

Kakashi’s words caused waves of question marks to float across the live-stream chat.

"Shouldn’t it be a hidden ninja organization causing trouble? What the hell does an alien invasion mean? Did this suddenly switch to a movie set?" one viewer couldn’t help but complain.

"If this is some official stunt, that’s way too outrageous. This is the Martial Arts Tournament finals, after all. Although movies about aliens invading the Shinobi World have indeed become popular recently, it shouldn’t go this far..."

Aside from the middle and upper levels of the Shinobi Alliance, ordinary people and ordinary ninja actually knew nothing about the Otsutsuki.

After all, making such matters public too early would only cause widespread panic and give those people who were eager to stir up trouble an opportunity to cause chaos.

But this opportunity was simply too good. Two Otsutsuki had both arrived, and this was the Martial Arts Tournament venue watched by the entire Shinobi World. This was an excellent opportunity to make the truth public.

Perhaps the Otsutsuki’s overwhelming strength would still cause a certain amount of panic, but Nagasawa believed that even more people would see hope in his suppression of the Otsutsuki.

As Kakashi explained more and more, while all kinds of information about the Otsutsuki invasion rapidly appeared online, everyone realized that this didn’t seem to be some kind of stunt.

"Holy shit, so the mysterious attack that nearly killed the Kazekage back then was actually done by aliens. I was wondering why such a huge incident just ended without any explanation."

"That’s nothing. Even the Fourth Shinobi World War started by the Light Shadow Village had the Otsutsuki involved."

"Even the Chakra Technology Company is related to the Otsutsuki."

"Even the legendary Sage of Six Paths..."

After reading through the information, everyone was extremely shocked because they discovered that aliens, an existence that seemed so far removed from them, actually had so many connections to the Shinobi World.

After the shock came intense unease. If it were merely a ninja organization, they had confidence in Nagasawa and the others. After all, this was the Shinobi Alliance, which had gathered the entire Shinobi World’s strength. But if their opponents were aliens, the outcome was difficult to say.

It wasn’t just those who were only learning about the matter now. Even the ninja within the Shinobi Alliance who had known about the Otsutsuki beforehand were somewhat panicked.

It was precisely because they knew about the Otsutsuki that they understood just how powerful they were. In the presence of powerhouses of this level, numbers became meaningless.

"And among the invaders, one of them is actually hiding among our participating contestants." Kakashi looked toward Zangshi without concealing anything.

Seeing that his identity had already been exposed, Zangshi simply stopped hiding and restored his Otsutsuki form.

"Interesting. Was it that traitor who told you?" Zangshi didn’t believe that Kakashi, a native, was capable of discovering his identity. He felt that Kaguya must also be present at the venue.

Zangshi suddenly revealing his true form caused many contestants to frown and retreat, putting distance between themselves and him.

Meanwhile, the enhanced humans rapidly approached Zangshi, protecting their god.
