====

Kimimaro was afflicted with a hereditary genetic disease that left him with little time to live.

This was something Itachi had sensed from the beginning.

The two were very similar.

Both possessed powerful bloodline limits, both suffered from incurable diseases, and both endured immense physical torment.

The only difference was that Itachi could hold on for a few more years, while Kimimaro was already at the end of his rope.

As he approached Kimimaro, looking at this descendant of the Kaguya clan, much like the Uchiha, whose clan was also wiped out, and the only remaining wielder of Shikotsumyaku, Itachi seemed to see his own future.

"Cough, cough."

Even his coughing had grown weak. Kimimaro noticed Itachi's approach and had no more regrets.

"Forgive me, Orochimaru-sama," he said silently in his heart, and with the last bit of chakra left in his body, he activated his final move.

With a splatter of blood, a bone spike pierced through Kimimaro's heart, extending out from his chest.

At that moment, the life of Kaguya Kimimaro came to an end.

"Even to the end, you refused to betray Orochimaru's location? Cough, cough," Itachi murmured, coughing lightly.

Knowing that Kimimaro's last act was to keep Orochimaru's secrets and avoid interrogation, Itachi silently buried Kimimaro's body in a deep pit.

After finishing this, Itachi put his hat back on, and with a flick of his palm, a black crow took flight, cutting through the sky towards the distance.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The sound of shadow clones being destroyed and the crackle of lightning filled the air.

Despite the combined efforts of Sasuke and Naruto, Kisame handled them with ease, forcing the duo into dire straits.

Unaware that he was at the pinnacle of his life, pressing two of the future greats of the shinobi world—Asura and Indra's reincarnations—into a corner, Kisame had no interest in dragging things out.

He kicked Sasuke, who could see the attack but couldn't dodge, sending him flying, and aimed Samehada's fierce strike at Naruto.

Compared to Itachi's brother, Kisame found the Nine-Tails brat more to his liking.

Seeing the attack coming, Naruto was about to dodge when a green blur sped past him.

"Leaf Hurricane!"

A powerful upward kick sent the unprepared Kisame flying.

Accompanying this was a spirited shout: "The Beautiful Green Beast of Konoha has arrived!"

"Bushy Brows! You're here!!" Naruto exclaimed joyfully, recognizing the newly healed Rock Lee.

Lee turned and gave a thumbs up, his white teeth sparkling as he said: "It's not just me."

Not far away, Sasuke, who had been kicked by Kisame, saw this and turned to leave without a word.

Unaware of Sasuke's departure, Naruto soon understood what Lee meant by "not just me."

The sound of a thousand birds chirping filled the air once more.

Like a hidden assassin, Kakashi emerged from the dust, the Chidori in his hand crackling with energy as he approached Kisame.

"You!"

Kisame recognized the newcomer.

The next moment, a thunderous explosion resounded.

As the dust settled, Kakashi appeared, leaping to Naruto and Lee's side.

Tsunade, worried about Shikamaru's team, had not only sent the Sand Shinobi and Lee but also dispatched Kakashi, who had just returned from a mission and hadn't even had time to rest.

"Kakashi-sensei!"

Naruto, seeing Kakashi, felt a weight lift off his shoulders. He pointed excitedly to where Sasuke had been: "Look, Kakashi-sensei, I found Sasuke! He was just helping me fight that shark guy."

Kakashi quickly scanned the area Naruto pointed to, finding it empty. "Huh? Where's Sasuke?"

Naruto, also noticing, widened his eyes.

Where was Sasuke?

Naruto, panicking, was about to run off to find Sasuke.

Kakashi stopped him.

"The danger isn't over yet."

As the dust settled, Kisame, though looking a bit worse for wear, was still ready for battle.

"Hatake Kakashi, didn't expect you to recover from Itachi's genjutsu so quickly," Kisame remarked, shouldering Samehada.

"I didn't expect it either," Kakashi replied calmly, drawing a kunai and preparing for battle.

He knew Sasuke was nearby, but now was not the time to be distracted.

For the village, the importance of the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki far outweighed that of Sasuke.

Therefore, facing another sudden encounter with the mysterious Akatsuki member who specialized in capturing tailed beasts, he had to keep Naruto within his sight.

The wind rustled, bending the grass on the battlefield.

Kakashi, Lee, and even Naruto braced themselves for battle once more.

Kisame, lifting Samehada, was ready to go all out when a crow suddenly descended from the sky, landing on his shoulder.

Kisame, seeing this, momentarily lowered Samehada and asked the crow:

"Itachi, what is it?"

From the crow came Itachi's voice:

"I've dealt with Orochimaru's subordinate but couldn't get any information. Capture one of the remaining targets alive."

"Seems that young man was quite skilled."

Knowing Itachi's abilities, Kisame was surprised and then looked at Naruto and the others. "However, I still have some unfinished business here. Remember that Nine-Tails brat? I ran into him on the way. And Hatake Kakashi, who was under your genjutsu, is also here."

"Kakashi, huh…"

The crow on Kisame's shoulder turned its red Sharingan eye towards the Konoha group, as if Itachi himself could see them.

He said, "Taking them down isn't a quick job. Comparatively, I'm more interested in Orochimaru's whereabouts. His subordinates won't hold out much longer."

"I see."

Recalling the conflict between Orochimaru and Itachi within Akatsuki, Kisame nodded knowingly and sheathed Samehada. "Alright, I'll follow your lead and deal with Orochimaru first."

All workers need not overextend themselves.

Even the boss, Pain, wasn't in a hurry to reclaim the Nine-Tails, so Kisame wasn't either.

He had only been acting out of a "might as well" mentality. Now that reinforcements had arrived for the opposition, making the outcome uncertain, Kisame simply decided to withdraw.

Whoosh! Kisame's figure flickered and vanished.

Seeing this, Lee asked Kakashi: "Kakashi-sensei, should we pursue him?"

"No," Kakashi shook his head, thinking about the crow on Kisame's shoulder and knowing Itachi was likely nearby.

Not knowing why they had suddenly withdrawn, Kakashi didn't want to stir up more trouble.

"Our mission is…"

Before Kakashi could finish, Naruto suddenly realized and yelled: "Sasuke!!!"

He then sped off in the direction Sasuke had gone.

"Our mission is…that," Kakashi completed his sentence with a shake of his head and followed Naruto.

"Is this the Valley of the End?"

Taking advantage of the time Kisame had stalled, and encountering no further surprises, Sasuke hurried all the way and soon arrived at the Valley of the Gods.

Looking at this place, known to have been transformed from a plain into a valley through a fierce battle, Sasuke felt a hint of apprehension.

When Gensou had casually mentioned it before, it was a ray of hope in Sasuke's otherwise hopeless situation. But what about for Gensou?

Would he not care at all?

Would his desperate gamble yield the desired outcome?

Sasuke clenched his fists, surveying the valley. Soon, his gaze locked onto the figure atop the "Hashirama" statue.

He let out a slight sigh of relief, grateful that things hadn't taken a turn for the worse.

With a few leaps, Sasuke, whose rock-climbing skills could put experts to shame, swiftly reached the top of the statue. He respectfully addressed the man whose presence felt even more imposing than the last time they met.

"As you see, I have arrived," he said with rare reverence.

Gensou turned his head and nodded calmly. "Your determination is commendable."

Not everyone has the guts to become a rogue ninja. Even though Sasuke was driven by hatred, his willingness to forsake everything was praiseworthy.

If Gensou had initially taken a casual approach, he now didn't mind taking Sasuke under his wing.

After all, he wasn't interested in Sasuke's body like Orochimaru was. At worst, it wouldn't end as badly as it did for Orochimaru.

And in terms of potential gains, as the reincarnation of Indra, Sasuke's value would undoubtedly exceed the investment.

Of course, to be cautious, Gensou would ensure Sasuke had an unexpected bond.

"Do you need to say goodbye to your comrades?" Gensou asked, glancing in the direction Sasuke had come from.

As soon as he finished speaking, loud shouts echoed from that direction.

"Sasuke! Sasuke!"

Sasuke turned back to see Naruto's bright yellow figure swiftly approaching.

"No need," Sasuke replied calmly. "The childish ninja games end here."

"Games? What isn't a game in this world?" Gensou remarked lightly. Placing a hand on Sasuke's shoulder, he said, "Let's go."

A gust of wind blew through, and in a swirl of falling leaves, the figures of Gensou and Sasuke vanished.

Naruto, who had just entered the valley, looked up and saw only the last glimpse of Sasuke and Gensou disappearing.

Reaching out in vain, he shouted with all his might, "Sasuke!!"

"I will take you back from Gensou!!"

His loud vow echoed through the Valley of the End.

"Am I too late?" Kakashi, arriving just seconds behind, saw Naruto's sorrowful and determined shout and sighed inwardly.

He had known that Sasuke carried a deep burden of vengeance, but he hadn't expected him to be so resolute.

"From Naruto's words, it seems Sasuke has followed Gensou. The intelligence was correct," Kakashi thought.

"Hagoromo Gensou…"

He was a figure even more troublesome than Itachi.

Recalling the scene where Gensou effortlessly broke through his Chidori, Kakashi furrowed his brow.

Trouble seemed to be brewing.

"Sand Waterfall Imperial Funeral!"

A massive wave of sand surged from the ground, turning a hundred meters of forest into a desert in an instant.

With Gaara's move, the battle was nearing its end.

The combined force of the Twelve Guardian Ninja and the Sand Ninja, including the One-Tail Jinchuriki, had beaten the Sound Four into retreat, despite their cursed seal state two.

"It's time to end this once and for all!"

In his clan's secret jutsu, Man-Beast Transformation, Kiba, now a two-headed wolf, charged ferociously to deliver the final blow.

Shikamaru, whose chakra was almost depleted, didn't stop him. In his view, the outcome was already decided.

But in the next second, an unexpected event occurred.

As Kiba, transformed into a two-headed wolf, charged forward, he was suddenly sent flying back, breaking his secret jutsu and rendering him and Akamaru unconscious, lying exposed to everyone.

"What just happened?"

Shikamaru's eyes widened, and before he could react, a shadow moved swiftly, striking him down.

"Is that… Sakon?" Shikamaru recognized the attacker just before losing consciousness, confusion etched on his face.

How had someone on the verge of defeat suddenly gained such speed?

Sakon, uninterested in explanations, kicked the weakened Chouji towards Gaara. Hearing the mission completion sound in his mind, he swiftly fled the forest.

As the shadow clone dispersed, the real Sakon, who had just woken up nearby, was confused about how he had ended up there.

But realizing he had somehow escaped, he didn't dwell on it. Without considering his brother Ukon, still on the battlefield, he chose to flee.

However, before he could get far, he heard the clear sound of a bell.

"Today's luck is indeed good; another prey has come to me."

Kisame looked up, pleased with the sight of the panicked Sakon running towards him.

The one who had knocked out Kiba, Shikamaru, and Chouji was, of course, Gensou .

More precisely, it was his shadow clone.

Although he had been posing atop the statue in the Valley of the End, Gensou hadn't forgotten the new mission issued by the system.

To that end, he had sent out a shadow clone, which had taken the necessary actions.

As for disguising himself as Sakon?

Aside from Sakon conveniently passing out nearby, Gensou didn't want rumors of him attacking young genin spreading across the ninja world.

The plan went smoothly.

As he hurried with Sasuke, Gensou reviewed the memories sent back by his shadow clone and focused on the system.

Ding!

Main Mission: Become the Boss of the Skipping Class Four (Completed)

Congratulations to the host for defeating the Skipping Class Four, taking a big step towards dominating the Ninja Academy.

Mission Reward: Standard Chunin Level Chakra; Konoha Style Kenjutsu - Crescent Moon Dance

This time, the mission reward wasn't disappointing.

Feeling the infusion of chakra slightly more substantial than the barely noticeable genin level, and noticing the Konoha-style kenjutsu, Crescent Moon Dance, imprinting in his mind, Gensou nodded slightly.

Fairly speaking, if using the system's criteria, the above rewards would have significantly boosted his strength during his time in the ninja academy.

But having traveled decades ahead, the system's early rewards no longer held much appeal.

The only option was to speed up the process.

"System, is there a new main mission?" Gensou asked.

This time, the system responded promptly.

Soon, the familiar Ding! sounded in his mind.
