Chapter 305: The God Who Suppresses the Ninja World, Appears in the Ninja World for the Last Time

Time flies, and three years have passed in a flash.

During these three years, the ninja world achieved a rare peace. Although there were frictions and conflicts between countries, they rarely chose to endure and give in, especially when they faced the Fire Nation.

During these three years, Konoha Village was managed in an orderly manner by Hatake Sakumo. The number of ninjas and even the number of citizens of the Land of Fire increased rapidly. This thriving scene made most people feel optimistic and intoxicated, but only those who truly understood the truth knew that the current prosperity might only last for another seven years.

The ninja world at this time in the original work was in the midst of the Third World War, the most brutal period of war and turmoil. However, the current ninja world, due to the military coercion of a powerful person, has led to a kind of strange false peace among the major countries.

The strongest man who created this peace was honored as 'God' by the Ninja World. The title of God was closely related to his abilities. The Ninjas privately named him: 'Sun-Phantom Dragon God'!

There are so many stories and legends about him. Some say he is a demon, and his true form is a ferocious black dragon under his human appearance; some say he is a god, and his true form is a bright and scorching sun that cannot be looked directly at.

There are many people who believe in these two rumors. It is said that the first person to spread these two statements was not an ordinary person without knowledge, but a powerful elite ninja, or even a Kage of a big country!

The 'Phantom Sun Dragon God' suppressed the Ninja World with his own strength, which made the big countries dare not to start a war lightly. The small countries also gained a precious breathing space from it, thus having more hope of survival.

Peace, whether true or false, was created by the 'Sun-Phantom Dragon God' himself. It is precisely because of this tangible achievement that the small countries located in the buffer zone of the Ninja Realm will praise the greatness of the 'God' and sincerely praise the good name of the 'God'.

In a town in the Land of Rain, a red-haired young man was staring at a portrait in his hand in a daze.

The red-haired young man's name is Nagato, and the painting in his hand shows a young man in black who is about his age but has a very strange appearance.

The young man said he was a demon because his appearance was painted to be too outstanding and handsome, and he was called strange because his pupils were different colors, the left eye was grayish white and the right eye was inky black.

The young man in black in the painting gives people a very special feeling. His appearance, temperament and expression all give a sense of transcendence as if he has transcended the mundane world. This makes him look like a god or a legendary immortal!

This painting was bought by Nagato from the market. It was not expensive and was a mass-produced standard work. No one knew who created the original version. All we knew was that the painter seemed to be from Konoha.

The painting seller deceived Nagato by saying that this was a real god that existed in the ninja world.

Legend has it that this god's white left eye represents Yin, and his black right eye represents Yang. It's thanks to this god's existence that the ninja world has enjoyed peace and prosperity in recent years. The seller said that hanging this portrait in the home would bring peace and safety, so Nagato, for some unknown reason, bought it...

In fact, Nagato bought this painting not because of superstition about some gods, but because he had seen the young man in black in the portrait!

This man had once passed by the Akatsuki base on a rainy day, and while coming in to take shelter from the rain, he also had a long and friendly conversation with them, and the theme was about peace. He left a very deep impression on Nagato at that time.

"Liu Yun... God..."

Nagato muttered to himself as he looked at the painting in his hands.

Just when he was alone at home in a daze, three strange eyes were staring at him from afar outside the window.

"Madara-sama, how is Nagato's eyes awakening..."

Black and White Jue was standing in the pouring rain, staring at Nagato in the house with his sharp eyes. Next to him was the old and frail Uchiha Madara.

This was his last time observing Nagato. After that, he would never show up in the Ninja World again. He could only hide in the dark underground and remotely control Black and White Zetsu to do things, because he needed to borrow the power of the Outer Path Demon Statue to last a few more years.

"He has only awakened less than 20% of his power, and it will take a long time before he awakens his Outer Path..." There was a hint of regret in Uchiha Madara's voice.

In his opinion, the awakening of the Rinnegan was still too slow, and he didn't know how long it would take for the power of the outsider to be fully awakened.

"Take your time... The Outer Path will eventually awaken. If Madara-sama can't hold on any longer, I'll still be there..."

Black and White Zetsu took the opportunity to show their loyalty, but unfortunately Uchiha Madara's expression remained indifferent. In his view, Black and White Zetsu was just a product he created using the power of Yin-Yang Release and the demon statue. This product was born with his own will, and everything he said and did was for him, which was what he should do.

"Look, Madara-sama, that portrait in Nagato's hand is of Uchiha Ryuun... The person selling the painting said it's a god, and his name seems to be something like... Phantom Sun Dragon God!"

White Zetsu suddenly pointed at the portrait hung on the wall by Nagato.

"Humph, what a bullshit Phantom Sun Dragon God. He's just a poor fellow with a Mangekyō Sharingan... He learned a few superficial techniques from Ryuchidong, and you really think you're a god?"

Uchiha Madara sneered at the characters in the painting.

In terms of the development level of the Sharingan, his own Rinnegan is two levels higher than that of the ordinary Mangekyō. In terms of immortal techniques, the power level of Uchiha Ryuun when he fought with him a few years ago was far inferior to Hashirama.

How could such a person be revered as a god by the ninja world? Remember, back then, only Hashirama Senju held the title of "God of Ninja," and Uchiha Madara himself only had the title of "Shura of the Ninja World"... How could Uchiha Ryuun have the right?

This young junior from the same clan as him was indeed very outstanding in Uchiha Madara's eyes (otherwise he would not have set up a plan to recruit him), but his overall strength was only at the super shadow level.

Such a person might be a nuisance to Uchiha Madara now, but to him and Hashirama in their prime, he was just a minor character.

Mangekyō is just Mangekyō after all. Uchiha Ryuun has no brothers or sisters, so it is impossible for him to open the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan. In Madara's view, Uchiha Ryuun can only stop at the Super Shadow level.

At this time, Uchiha Madara's impression of Liuyun's fighting ability still remained a few years ago. If he could see the wonderful scene when Liuyun fought against the Five Kage, he might not think so...

Those ninjas in the ninja world have never seen the world, and Uchiha Madara was not surprised that they would be conquered by Ryuyun's force.

Mangekyō Sharingan, Sage Mode, Tailed Beasts... if these three powers were combined in one person at the same time, it would be no problem for this person to sweep across the current ninja world.

"Mangekyo, Sage Technique... I have to say that guy is truly remarkable. Any one of these two abilities would be considered a top force in the ninja world. He only lacks a Sage Body and a pair of matching Mangekyōs, otherwise..."

Black Zetsu stopped talking halfway through his words. Uchiha Madara, who was hearing this, trembled slightly.

If Uchiha Ryuun had a sage body and another pair of matching Mangekyō, then it would not be impossible for him to open the Rinnegan. The chess piece that caused him to miscalculate in the past has grown at an astonishing rate. No wonder he can dominate the entire ninja world today.

"I don't think he knows everything about the universe. In the final analysis, he is just lucky..." Uchiha Madara said lightly, he was still so arrogant.

"Hehe... Is it really just a coincidence? The Mangekyō Sharingan, the power of the sage, plus the power of the tailed beasts... If these powers were combined in one person, he could be considered a smaller version of the Six Paths Sage. Uchiha Ryuun, that guy, might be Madara's second replacement..."

Black Zetsu sneered secretly in his heart.
