Ding ding ding. The farewell wind chimes swayed in the wind on the steel bridge.

"This is as far as I can take you."

Gensou put on his bamboo hat, dressed like a traveler, and waved to Muteni and the others.

"Clan Leader, are you sure you don't need any subordinates to accompany you? If you think it's too many, just take two people. One to take care of your daily needs and one to handle minor tasks," Muteni said, glancing at Hanare and Izumi, who were there specifically for this purpose.

Gensou waved his hand, rejecting the good intentions of his subordinates. "I am infiltrating Konoha, not going there to enjoy life."

Moreover, Hanare was already in Konoha's records, and as for Izumi... The name "Uchiha" alone destined her not to return to Konoha. S~eaʀᴄh the nôvelFire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Upon hearing this, Hanare maintained a gentle smile, just as she had always been when interacting with Gensou, completely adhering to her duties without needing any reminders.

Izumi, however, was moved.

"So many years have passed, the people in Konoha would no longer recognize me."

If possible, she really wanted to go back and personally pay respects to her mother, grandmother, and the clansmen.

After all, all these years, besides Sasuke, there was probably no one in the village who would visit their graves.

Gensou shook his head.

Though it's said that girls undergo significant changes as they grow, one should not underestimate the professionals who are always on alert.

"Be patient. One day, you all will return there."

Gensou lowered the veil of his bamboo hat, bade a final farewell, and then left village, heading towards Konoha.

The goals of this trip included not only seeking Konoha's medical ninjutsu and completely resolving the senjutsu chakra that had been lingering within him for decades due to the forbidden technique but also considerations for completing his soul.

Konoha was indeed a treasure trove worth Gensou's repeated efforts.

"Old friend Hashirama, rest assured, this time I will see how Konoha is doing now, lay flowers at your grave, and tell you about Konoha's current situation."

"Don't thank me. After all, in this era, only I am still alive."

Gensou sighed, his whole body transforming into a black line, swiftly moving through the dense forest.

At the same time, not far away in another part of the same forest.

Four ninjas, not from the Five Great Nations, were also moving swiftly through the forest, but their direction was not towards Konoha.

"Speed up! We finally got the location of the One-Tail Jinchuriki; we can't let him escape! It's said that the legendary Hagoromo Gensou has been confirmed to have resurrected. So the long-standing legend of our village about the ancestor's resurrection is definitely not just a rumor!" The man named Hōki said excitedly.

The only female among the four, Kujaku, clenched her fists and said equally excitedly, "This time we will definitely revive the Ancestor! The village's long-awaited wish will come true in our hands!

At that time, we will no longer be a small ninja village crafting tools for the Five Great Ninja Villages. The Ancestor will lead us, the Tool Ninja Village, to glory, conquer the Five Great Ninja Villages, and dominate the entire ninja world!"

"So what are we waiting for? Let's go take down that kid Gaara and revive the Ancestor." Ryūgan, who was also a kid himself, laughed arrogantly.

Finally, the burly Suiko spoke calmly, "Although Suna is currently unstable internally, making their guard on the One-Tail Jinchuriki lax, we should not underestimate the existence of the tailed beast. We must plan our actions carefully before making a move."

Hōki, Kujaku, Ryūgan, and Suiko.

These four were the Four Celestial Symbols Men of the Tool Ninja Village.

As renowned masters of ninja tool forging in the ninja world, they had considerable fame.

The reason they had gathered now and set their sights on Suna and its One-Tail Jinchuriki was because of the news of Gensou's resurrection, which spurred them into action to implement their long-suppressed plan to resurrect the Ancestor.

The success of this plan hinged on having a vast chakra source as the energy supply.

The best choice was undoubtedly a tailed beast.

However, given the strength of the Tool Ninja Village and the Four Celestial Symbols Men, the chances of locating and defeating the Jinchuriki of the major ninja villages were slim.

This time, due to Suna's internal instability and the fact that the One-Tail Jinchuriki was a young boy on a mission outside the village, they dared to proceed with their long-suppressed

plan.

Once successful, they would no longer live under the oppression of the Five Great Ninja Villages, working tirelessly with little pay.

Thinking of the future's bright prospects, Hōki nodded heavily, "Suiko is right! We must ensure nothing goes wrong in capturing the One-Tail Jinchuriki. First, we should observe and see if that kid Gaara has any weaknesses."

"Is that necessary? We can just attack together," Ryugan, confident in his advanced ninja

tools, said dismissively.

Kujaku nodded seriously, "It is necessary."

With a vote of three to one, the plan was approved.

Ryūgan could only sulkily play with the Dragon Eye Fang Hidden Blade in his hand.

Suddenly, he thought of something and asked curiously, "Who do you think is stronger, the Ancestor or Gensou, given they are from the same era?"

Hōki, who had boundless admiration for the Ancestor, answered without hesitation, "Of course, it's the Ancestor."

"But... Gensou was clearly more famous back then," Ryugan argued.

Hōki hesitated, and Kujaku quickly explained, "That's because the Ancestor didn't care for fame. He spent most of his time focusing on forging the ultimate ninja tools. Otherwise, the Ancestor would have made a name for himself no less than Gensou or Hashirama."

"Exactly!" Hōki added, "The Ancestor wouldn't have told the village to prepare for war against the Five Great Ninja Villages upon his return if he didn't have the power to back it up." "Oh, I see," Ryūgan's eyes lit up, eager to witness the Ancestor's greatness.

At this moment, Suiko, who had been silent, suddenly spoke, "Someone is approaching."

Hōki frowned slightly, "Ignore them, the mission is the priority."

"The intruder has a huge chakra," Suiko said, touching the Infinite Hole Armor on his body

that could absorb chakra, his eyes lighting up.

Hōki's eyes also brightened, "Stop! Surround him!"

The Four Celestial Symbols Men immediately changed their direction.

Gensou looked up to see four ninjas wearing unknown headbands surrounding him with eager

and excited expressions.

"Hmm?"
