Konoha: I have a clone in One Piece

In the Kingdom of Fire, on a path surrounded by greenery.

"Hey kid, how long are you going to be gone?"

Uchiha Madara looked at Suzuki in front of him impatiently.

At this time, the two of them had come out of the Grass Ninja Village and had been walking in the ninja world for nearly two months.

Suzuki took him all the way through the great desert of the Kingdom of Wind, to the many islands of the Kingdom of Water, and then to the white snow of the Kingdom of Snow...

In two months, the two of them had traveled almost half of the ninja world.

And Uchiha Madara was still hanging behind Suzuki, following him like a substitute.

Suzuki smiled, paused, and looked straight ahead along the green trees on both sides of the road.

A thousand meters ahead, there was a slightly bustling market, with faint sounds of hawking and noise, and a faint aroma of food drifting nearby with the breeze.

"There is a small market ahead. I haven't eaten in almost two months. Mr. Madara, let's go buy some food to eat?"

Suzuki turned around and asked without answering the question.

Then, without waiting for Uchiha Madara's response, he walked towards the market.

…

A moment later, in the market.

A noble was scolding a ninja.

"What's the matter with you? Can't you even handle this little thing?"

"Sorry...sorry, I was negligent, I..."

The ninja nodded and bowed, then paid compensation for the loss with a look of regret on his face, and then sent the nobleman away.

Ninja Steel turned around, but accidentally touched the shoulder of a wandering samurai on the not-so-wide street. He suddenly became furious:

"You guy, you don't have eyes, do you?"

"Yes...I'm sorry!"

The wandering warrior with a scabbard on his waist looked horrified and quickly bowed to apologize:

"Ninja-sama, the little ones don't have eyes!"

"I'm so sorry. You used the money to drink."

The wandering warrior took out a money bag from his pocket.

"Hmph, be more careful next time!"

"Yes Yes!"

After the Konoha ninja left, the wandering samurai looked at the crowd watching the excitement and suddenly shouted with dissatisfaction:

"What are you looking at?"

"You guys, you losers, will never be able to say a few words to a ninja-sama in your entire life!"

As if he felt that just scolding was not enough to save his dignity in front of everyone, the wandering warrior walked up to a small fruit vendor, put his right hand on the handle of the knife, exposed a small part of the sharp blade, and said with a threat:

"You haven't paid the protection fee today, right?"

"One hundred taels! Hurry up!"

"Ah? But isn't this once a week? I just handed it in two days ago?"

The fruit vendor did not expect that misfortune would befall him so suddenly. He looked at the surrounding people with a look of embarrassment and tried to ask for help, even if it was just to prove that he had paid the money.

However, when the onlookers saw this, they all left quickly without looking back, as if they were seeing a crow.

Seeing this, the fruit vendor had no choice but to hand over the protection fee of one hundred taels again with a look of regret.

Uchiha Madara looked at this scene and couldn't help but sneered:

"Oh, the ninja world is still like this..."

Suzuki turned around and looked behind him, his eyes calm and he said:

"Weak people naturally cannot resist, but they are extremely respectful to these nobles even though they have power."

"Mr. Madara, your ninja's thinking is a bit strange."

Uchiha Madara retracted his gaze, tilted his head and looked at Suzuki, then sighed and said:

"It's not that we're weird, it's just how the laws of this world work."

"Suzuki brat, you have to know that power is sometimes a kind of strength. It is even more terrifying than ninjutsu!"

Suzuki asked as he walked towards the pastry stall:

"Of course I know."

"But, can't power also be controlled by ninjas?"

"With the strength of ninjas, those nobles have no way to resist. Even if they hire samurai with a lot of money and attract some ninjas, it will be difficult to escape from a ninja as powerful as you, right?"

At the same time, because of his soul body, ordinary people could not see Uchiha Madara. Many people in the market couldn't help but look away with strange eyes after seeing Suzuki who seemed to be talking to himself inexplicably.

But Suzuki didn't care about this and continued to walk forward.

Behind him, Uchiha Madara frowned slightly, seeming to be lost in memories, and then responded in a slow and deep voice:

"What you said, I've thought about it before!"

"At that time, when Hashirama and I first established the Ninja Village, I wanted to wipe out the five major countries in one fell swoop, and then let the Leaf Village rule the world. Unfortunately, that idiot Hashirama vetoed it."

As he spoke, Uchiha Madara's expression became extremely serious:

"Of course, in the following decades, I gradually understood that this method was also impossible to succeed!"

"Just like the power we just talked about... now, is power only owned by nobles? Not necessarily. Among the five great ninja villages, which village has not fallen into the power of the top?"

"Oppression and bullying are not uncommon in ninja villages, right? Moreover, if ninjas become powerful beings, then the cruelty and tragedy that ninjas who fall into darkness will surely cause will be Countless times more than today’s nobles!”

"Compared to ninjas who possess chakra, nobles who are ordinary people, no matter how cruel they are, are nothing more than scabies."

"The Country of Fire relied on Hashirama and I to occupy most of the prosperous areas in the ninja world, but there are still so many tragic things happening."

"So, strength is not the key. In the final analysis, excessive greed is the biggest obstacle to peace."

"Unless they can learn to understand each other..."

Speaking of this, Uchiha Madara suddenly stopped talking, and then changed the topic and asked:

"Kid, you've been walking in the ninja world for so long but you haven't done anything. What do you want?"

'Infinite Tsukuyomi' is the biggest secret in his heart. It is also the most important thing for him to achieve peace and complete his own ideas. If he wants people to understand each other and no longer indulge in desire, this can only be achieved by relying on Infinite Tsukuyomi. .

Although the kid in front of him may know about the Eye of the Moon plan, he still doesn't want to say too much.

Suzuki glanced behind him out of the corner of his eye, a thoughtful look on his face.

It turns out...that's what Madara thought.

Also, the dissemination of chakra was intended to allow people to understand each other from the beginning. Uchiha Madara is not as powerful as the Sage of Six Paths, and the current environment is different from that of a thousand years ago. The only way he can find is to achieve a spiritual link through the ultimate illusion "Infinite Tsukuyomi".

It's a pity that it's a trap...

"Nothing done? No."

"I still did something."

Suzuki smiled and responded while continuing to walk forward.

At the same time, under his feet, a seven-colored light ball silently flew toward the fruit vendor.

Not long after, I was at a noodle stall in the market.

"Boss, do you have crab noodles?"

"Ah, guest, you are talking about the big crab meat, right? Hahaha, yes, yes."

"Guest, how much do you want? We have small portions, medium portions..."

When the pastry boss saw a customer coming, he immediately responded enthusiastically.

Suzuki glanced at Madara Uchiha behind him and smiled politely:

"Just two bowls, a big portion."

"Okay!"

The pastry boss quickly started to get busy.

"Hmph." Uchiha Madara snorted coldly and said with a mocking look on his face: "Kid, if you indulge in the desires of your food and drink, even if you are strong, you will only be able to do this."

Suzuki came to sit down at the table and responded with a nonchalant smile:

"Mr. Madara, do you want to eat? I can temporarily let you have the body of an ordinary person."

"Oh, I don't care about it."

Uchiha Madara looked disdainful.

But soon...

"Hmm...this tastes really good."

"Kid, isn't Bai absolutely controlled by you? Why haven't I seen you bring food like this before? I'm tired of eating barbecue all the time."

Sitting opposite Suzuki, Uchiha Madara, who had temporarily possessed a body, was grabbing the noodle bowl and devouring it.

"Really? Sorry, I was a little busy at the time."

"...Well...by the way, since you can give me a body, can you stop hanging me?"

"Sorry, can't."

…

A few days later.

Suzuki and Uchiha Madara stood on the edge of the cliff of a thousand-meter mountain, looking at the bustling village below.

"Konoha is still the same..."

Uchiha Madara looked at his long-lost hometown and couldn't help but sigh.

"yes."

Suzuki also had a bit of emotion on his face.

Konoha Village is not only Madara's hometown, he also came from here.

Uchiha Madara glanced at Suzuki strangely, then lowered his head to look at the ground of the cliff, with a flash of nostalgia in his eyes, and sighed:

"Speaking of which, Hashirama and I used to come here often before where we are standing right now."

"Yeah?"

Suzuki smiled, then looked at the bustling scene of firecrackers in the village below and said:

"It's the Fourth Hokage's succession ceremony. Let's go and have a look."

…

In Konoha Village.

The succession of the Fourth Hokage is a big event.

In addition to many high-level officials of Konoha Village, the daimyo of the Fire Country also came with their wives.

There are also the clan leaders of the major ninja clans in Konoha, almost all jounin, and even most of the ninjas and villagers in Konoha Village.

The grand and grand platform was surrounded by a dark crowd.

Because a young new Hokage is about to be welcomed, many Konoha villagers' faces are beaming with joy.

They had long known about the new Hokage's deeds from the publicity.

For Minato Namikaze, the golden flash who was said to be a key turning point in the war and reversed the disadvantageous situation in one fell swoop, the villagers were extremely looking forward to this new Hokage leading the Leaf Village forward.

"In the previous war, Minato made great contributions to Konoha!"

"Countless Konoha ninjas survived because of his existence..."

"I am here to pass on the position of the Fourth Hokage to Minato. He will lead the Leaf Village to continue to prosper!"

At the same time, the third generation Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was announcing his abdication on the stage, couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief, and then smiled and handed the Hokage robe to Namikaze Minato beside him.

"Minato, from now on Konoha, I'll leave it to you!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen solemnly patted the shoulder of the young man in front of him.

"Thank you, Third Generation-sama!"

Namikaze Minato took the Hokage robe and put it on his body, then turned around with a face full of confidence and sunshine, looked at the crowd in the audience, and waved to them.

In an instant, countless people in the audience were all excited.

"Ah...Minato-sama!"

"so hot……"

"It's great that Minato-sama is the Hokage!"

"Look, that's our Fourth Hokage of Konoha~"

"Naruto!" "Naruto!" "Naruto—"

The high-pitched cheers gradually became louder and more uniform, and finally resounded throughout the entire Konoha Village.

"Minato...so handsome!"

"Hokage——"

Uzumaki Kushina, who was sitting in the first row of seats, looked up at Namikaze Minato with an excited expression, and was also shouting loudly along with everyone.

Beside her, the teenage Kakashi Hatake, wearing a mask, remained silent.

Even though the teacher became the Fourth Hokage, he still sat in his seat with his head lowered, looking very decadent.

And beside Kakashi.

"Father/Kayo!"

"This is youth!"

Because the hatred of the Kirigakure Village was drawn by the Uchiha clan during this war, Metkai, who had not encountered the reduction of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, was holding his father's hand and looking up to the high platform with an excited expression.

Afterwards, the father and son hugged each other and cried excitedly.

At this moment, two figures wearing green tights became extremely conspicuous even in the dark crowd.

The corner of the crowd.

Danzo Shimura, a high-ranking member of Konoha, looked at the majestic Namikaze Minato on the high platform and the cheering villagers, and his eyes suddenly showed strong jealousy:

"Hiruzen...you actually handed over such an important position of Hokage to a brat like this?!!"

"You will definitely regret it!"

Next to him, Orochimaru, one of the Sannin of Konoha, looked at the lively scene in front of him expressionlessly.

"Teacher...it seems that there is no place for me in this village."

Thinking of Jiraiya and Tsunade who were not in the village, Orochimaru at this moment couldn't help but have the idea of ​​leaving Konoha Village completely.

In the front seat, Uchiha Fugaku turned his head to look at his wife beside him and smiled:

"Mikoto, go back and give some secret medicine to Mrs. Hokage."

"Haha." Uchiha Mikoto covered her mouth and chuckled, then stroked her slightly bulging belly and said, "That's good, Kushina is also preparing to be pregnant."

…

The edge of the platform.

Two figures that no one could see, as if they were not in this world, were standing on the steps, watching everything quietly.

"I know this kid."

Uchiha Madara looked at Namikaze Minato with admiration:

"Although I use that guy's ninjutsu, his temperament and style are completely different. It's a world of difference!"

"In terms of the ninjutsu of Flying Thunder God alone, this brat has already trampled Senju Tobirama under his feet."

"With Konoha Village in his hands, there should be many new changes."

Suzuki glanced at the crowd and said with a smile:

"That's inevitable."

"There will always be obstacles to change, but now, it's no longer up to them."
