Naruto's gaze made Kankuro and Temari both swallow hard.
Is this... to kill them?
After all, the two of them heard a lot of things they shouldn't have heard.
Although they were all just crazy ramblings, making them seem very neurotic.
However, precisely because of this, the other party might kill him to prevent the secret that he is mentally ill from being revealed.
Gaara has clearly been influenced by this mentally ill person, and he certainly won't speak up for the two of them.
With this thought in mind, both of them closed their eyes in despair, awaiting death.
"They are God's followers!"
After noticing Naruto's gaze, Gaara slowly spoke.
Naruto was caught off guard by his rapid transformation.
However, this is understandable.
He was a demon who only loved himself!
Now it's just that they've gone from Asuras to gods; there's no essential difference.
"Indeed, even gods need followers." Naruto Uzumaki nodded. "However, since they are followers of the gods, we must quickly align their thoughts with those of the gods!"
"I'm really looking forward to seeing how you do in the third exam."
After Naruto finished speaking, he left with Karin.
Both Temari and Kankuro have a sense of having survived a catastrophe.
"Gaara actually spoke up to protect us."
After feeling relieved, Kankuro said to his opponent, Baki, in a low voice, "I can hardly believe it."
"Although it's surprising, it was indeed because of him that the guy let us go."
Temari cautiously stole a glance at Gaara.
Despite Gaara's more serious psychological problems.
But he seemed to have gained a touch of humanity.
Even Gaara himself didn't notice this subtle change.
It was his longing for Infinite Tsukuyomi that rekindled his desire for family, leading him to speak up and save Temari and Kankuro.
"Let's go!"
"Let them witness the power of God!"
Gaara spoke calmly, his face expressionless.
Upon hearing this, Temari and Kankuro couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
He did indeed speak up and save the two of them, but he became even more insane than before.
...
The surveillance post in the Desert of Demons.
Danzō and Orochimaru were both waiting for their respective agents to bring back good news.
But as they waited and waited, several waves of examinees had already arrived at the Demon Desert.
The ninjas responsible for capturing the Jinchuriki and the Uchiha clan still hadn't sent any news back.
"Could something have gone wrong? I need to keep Orochimaru (Danzō) calm down first!"
The idea came to them almost simultaneously, and then they met on their way to each other's rooms.
"Lord Hokage, I have something to discuss with you. Is now a convenient time?"
Orochimaru said with a smile.
"What a coincidence, I also have something to discuss with Lord Kazekage."
Danzō said this as he and Orochimaru entered the conference room. After dismissing everyone else, they began their conversation.
"Ahem, Danzō, I think we need to put the matter of the Ichibi Jinchuriki on hold."
"Why don't you wait until the third exam, see his abilities for yourself, and then decide whether or not to capture him?"
Orochimaru coughed lightly, but did not say that the capture of the Ichibi Jinchuriki might have failed.
"Slowly? You..." Danzō was about to get angry, but then he remembered that his men hadn't captured Uchiha Sasuke either, so he immediately changed his tone: "You and I are thinking the same thing. I also want you to see Uchiha Sasuke's strength with your own eyes before deciding whether or not you want him."
As Danzō finished speaking, the two exchanged a glance, their understanding unspoken.
Something might have happened to him too.
"There's one more thing. I hope you can provide me with some more Hashirama cells so I can continue to unravel the secrets of Mokuton."
After the matter of the Jinchuriki and the Uchiha clan came to an end, Orochimaru brought up the topic of Hashirama's cells.
"Don't even think about it. I am now the Hokage, and I would never do something like betraying my ancestors."
Danzō Shimura shook his head repeatedly, but then said, "However, if you agree to one thing, I can give you Tenzō as a test subject."
After being rejected by Danzō, Orochimaru had already given up hope.
Unexpectedly, he actually wanted to give Tenzō to him for experimentation.
"Tell me what you want me to do!"
Orochimaru licked his lips, his eyes gleaming with intense interest.
"When the third Chunin Exam comes, I'm going to make all those daimyo die here."
A cold glint flashed in Danzō Shimura's eyes; he had had enough of these pig-like daimyo.
Two days ago, the daimyo of the Land of Fire sent him a letter, instructing him to publicly execute Mizuki when the daimyo of various countries came to watch the battle.
They also extended sincere apologies to the Land of Waves and all the other ninja nations, and, in the name of Konoha, provided humanitarian compensation to the new daimyo of the Land of Waves.
Danzō had never done anything so shameful from birth to becoming Hokage.
Since these powerful figures have already chosen their own way to die.
Danzō Shimura, of course, would no longer indulge them.
"Oh? You want to start the Fourth Shinobi World War?"
At this moment, Orochimaru became even more excited.
If the Fourth Shinobi World War were to actually break out, the amount of material I would need for resurrection would increase significantly.
"What does this have to do with me?" Danzō leaned back tactically and said calmly, "I wasn't the one who killed the daimyo."
Orochimaru: "..."
Got it!
You want me to take the blame, huh?
You, Danzō, are still too green!
"I promise you!"
Orochimaru did not hesitate for long. Just as Danzō said, it was not Orochimaru who killed the daimyo.
That was done by the Fourth Kazekage, Rasa.
What does this have to do with Orochimaru?
"Then I'll send Tenzō to you after the Chunin Exams are over."
As Danzō Shimura spoke, he slowly stood up, put on the Hokage hat, and left the meeting room.
"Hmph, Danzō is starting to resemble a Hokage more and more!"
Watching Danzō's departing figure, Orochimaru praised him in his heart.
Soon, all the teams that participated in the exam had successfully arrived at the Demon Desert.
Next up is the third elimination round.
However, the third exam was not held immediately.
The third exam will not officially begin until all the daimyo from various countries who have come to watch have arrived.
...
Mount Myōboku!
Jiraiya is listening to a new prophecy in the place where the Ōgama Sennin resides.
"I saw it... light, white light, enveloping the entire world... a black figure guiding the chosen one, bringing eternity to the world..."
The Great Toad Sage sat on his throne, recounting in fits and starts the scenes he had seen in his dream.
But at the very last moment, he suddenly fell asleep.
This caused Jiraiya and the two sages, Fukasaku and Shima, below to immediately freeze in place.
