Chapter 196: Loyal Konoha Welcomes Its Master
🕑 Added 2025-06-01 10:54:39 +0000 UTCThe wind of the battlefield blew past that unyielding man.
The armor fragments scattered across the battlefield had completely disappeared.
Simu perceived Uchiha Madara’s body with his Observation Haki.
His two Sharingan were still within his body and had not vanished.
In other words, he was truly dead—no escaping fate even with Izanagi.
Simu walked up to Uchiha Madara’s body and lifted his clothes, revealing the face above the chest.
This was a human face formed from First Generation cells, granting Uchiha Madara the power to wield Wood Style.
It was also the combination of the Sage Body, symbolized by Hashirama, and the Uchiha’s divine eyes that gave birth to the double Rinnegan seen in Nagato.
“Is it because his Chakra was insufficient?” Simu muttered in bewilderment.
Or was it because Uchiha Madara’s pride would never allow him to run away again?
Of course, even if Uchiha Madara had tried to escape using Izanagi, Simu’s Observation Haki would likely have detected it.
Either way, Uchiha Madara’s death was certain.
The next step was to bring Madara’s body back to Mutu.
As the first great warrior born with the Rinnegan after fusing the Sage Body and divine eyes, Uchiha Madara’s corpse was undoubtedly invaluable.
Simu took out two sealing scrolls and sealed both the eight-fisted form and Uchiha Madara’s body inside them.
After the battle, his three disciples finally crawled out of the ruins with difficulty.
“Cough, cough, cough...” Obito coughed violently.
Kakashi fared better and even used Earth Style ninjutsu to protect Rin.
Obito complained with dissatisfaction, “Kakashi, why don’t you wrap me up too?”
Kakashi pulled his mask down and replied lightly, “Forget it.”
“What?!”
Just as the two were about to argue again, a figure of similar size appeared before them.
Minato looked at Simu. Aside from the injury on his shoulder, he was fine.
Only then did Minato feel relieved.
“Won?” he asked.
Simu nodded slightly. “It’s settled.”
Knowing the matter was resolved, Minato complained, “It was too risky to go and face Uchiha Madara alone.”
This was the legendary Uchiha Madara!
If anything had happened to Simu, the Hidden Leaf Village would have plunged into chaos again.
“First you raided the Water Country, then single-handedly challenged Uchiha Madara. I really have to hand it to you.”
If Minato had known their opponent beforehand, he would definitely have tried to stop Simu.
Simu scratched his head. “Don’t worry. If I can’t handle an old man who’s about to die, how can I become Konoha’s Hokage?”
Hearing Minato’s conversation with their teacher, Obito realized something.
The old man who had saved his life and trained him had already passed away.
Although Uchiha Madara targeted Obito in the end, and Obito also learned from Rin that it had all been Madara’s scheme,
he still felt somewhat uneasy.
Simu reached out and rubbed the top of his head.
“Let’s go, return to Konoha.”
Simu’s biggest problem had been solved. The next step was to tidy up Konoha’s internal affairs—and then…
Flatten the entire ninja world!
When news spread that Simu had returned to Konoha, the whole village almost erupted in celebration.
The Sarutobi and Shimura ninja in charge of guarding Konoha could only helplessly watch the cheering crowds.
Simu sat cross-legged atop Erwei’s head.
Behind him stood three tailed beasts.
The Four Tails, Five Tails, and the recently captured Three Tails all stood out.
At Simu’s request, the tailed beasts suppressed their Chakra to a minimum.
Yet there was still an ominous aura hanging in the air.
“Is that the legendary tailed beast...?” some whispered.
“There really is an ominous atmosphere.”
“I heard tailed beasts are extremely violent. They won’t cause any danger to us, right?”
Many villagers voiced their concerns.
But these worries were quickly dismissed by others.
“It’s been a long time since we saw you back in the village. As long as the Fourth Hokage is here, you don’t have to worry about the tailed beasts.”
“Exactly. Matatabi has saved countless lives in battle over the years and is Konoha’s patron saint!”
“Yes, yes, Matatabi saved my life!”
The discussions buzzed on.
Erwei narrowed his eyes happily at the praise.
After all, he had been with Simu the longest and contributed the most on the battlefield.
As a result, many ninja in Konoha held deep respect for him.
Moreover, Simu often walked through the village accompanied by the tailed beasts, so the villagers of Konoha were probably the most ordinary people in the entire ninja world unafraid of the tailed beasts.
Listening to the conversations around them, both the Three Tails and Five Tails looked thoughtful.
As for the arrogant Four Tails, he snorted coldly but felt a little unsettled.
After all, being a tailed beast had always meant being seen as a disaster and a menace.
Suddenly being admired and respected by others was still an indescribable…
Comfortable feeling!
Tailed beasts were sentient beings.
Having lived for so long in an environment of blame and misunderstanding, they were especially sensitive to genuine respect and love from others.
If that weren’t the case, why would these tailed beasts live in harmony with their perfect Jinchūriki?
These days, because of Lu Jiu’s actions...
Simu went alone to the Land of Water to rescue his disciples, beheaded the Mizukage and the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, and news of capturing the Three Tails spread throughout the village.
This further boosted Simu’s already soaring reputation to an even higher level.
Many villagers even began comparing Simu to the First Hokage.
After all, even the Third Hokage, who had ruled for decades, did not have such an impressive record as Simu’s.
Subduing four tailed beasts.
Killing two Kage, plus the so-called demigod Hanzo — that’s three!
He even forced an entire ninja village to surrender single-handedly.
Of these three feats, which one could Sarutobi Hiruzen accomplish?
Only the First Hokage, Hashirama, could suppress Simu.
Simu wore the Fourth Hokage’s robes.
Overwhelming cheers echoed in my ears.
Loyal Konoha welcomed their master.
A figure rushed out from the side and flew towards Simu.
An ANBU, tasked with protecting Simu, recognized the person just as he was about to intervene.
Red hair.
It was Uzumaki Kushina.
He stepped back hurriedly.
Mrs. Hokage’s temper was well known.
It was fine if the Hokage himself got angry...
But if Kushina got mad, she wouldn’t hesitate to punch anyone.
Kushina threw herself directly into Simu’s arms.
Feeling the scent of Kushina’s hair, he felt much more at ease.
Seeing this, the villagers of Konoha grew even more excited, raising their hands and shouting wildly:
“Fourth Generation Hokage!”
“Fourth Generation Hokage!”
“Fourth Generation Hokage!”
The shouts swept through Konoha like a wave.
A little girl stretched half her body out the window with all her might.
Her mother, frightened, quickly grabbed her arm.
Taking the opportunity, the little girl threw something she was holding.
Several masked ANBU appeared instantly and caught the flying object.
It was a wreath of flowers.
The child’s mother smiled apologetically.
Simu shook his head slightly and said to the ANBU:
“It’s just a little girl’s gift, can it really hurt me? Give it to me.”
“Yes!”
The ANBU quickly handed the wreath to Simu.
Simu smiled at the little girl and raised his hand in greeting.
Then he knelt down and whispered:
“Put out the flame above your head.”
Erwei was momentarily stunned, then quickly lowered the flame.
Simu placed the wreath on Erwei’s head.
The disappointment on the little girl’s face instantly turned into surprise and excitement!
She jumped up eagerly, pointed at Erwei, and exclaimed:
“Civet cat! Mom, look! The big civet cat brought the wreath I made!”
Erwei was momentarily taken aback by being called a “big civet cat,” then smiled at the little girl.
“The big civet cat smiled at me!”
Erwei: ...
The cheers grew louder.
The noise even disturbed an old man resting in the Sarutobi clan’s territory.
Hearing the commotion outside, Sarutobi Hiruzen took a slow drag from his cigarette.
Faced with this situation, it was almost impossible for him to bring down Simu.
The wild celebration didn’t end until Simu walked into the Hokage building.
The four tailed beasts were placed by Simu in the Death 2.4 Forest.
Simu didn’t restrict their movements; it was fine if they wanted to visit other places when unhappy.
After escaping the hustle and bustle, waiting for him in the conference room were Shikahisa, Haiichi, Fugaku, and other cronies.
As soon as Simu entered, Lu Jiu immediately began reporting the accumulated matters of recent days one by one.
Simu rubbed his eyebrows and said sharply:
“Well… You can discuss those irrelevant matters.
“Just leave them to Minato and Lu Jiu.”
“Te—”
Lu Jiu wanted to say more, but Simu had already disappeared into his office.
Lu Jiu could only look at Minato.
The latter shrugged.
“It’s not the first time you’ve dealt with him.
“You can ask Simu to single out the five great powers, but you can’t make him focus on government affairs.
“So these things fall on Minato and Shikahisa’s shoulders.”
As for our lord Hanyu Simu, he had already rushed home.
When he was about to embrace Rei and Mikoto, they stopped him.
“Sorry, Simu-kun. Mikoto-san and I are both pregnant.”
