Black Naruto: Shadow Moon

After the war, Konoha Village was a busy scene.

As the ninja troops on the front line gradually withdrew, the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen also began to deal with post-war reconstruction work.

To this end, he summoned all the jonin and held an important meeting to discuss many issues such as post-war reconstruction, compensation for casualties and rewards.

At the beginning of the meeting, each jonin spoke and put forward their own opinions on reconstruction and compensation.

Some suggested giving priority to repairing the houses and public facilities destroyed by the war, some suggested increasing the care for the wounded, and some even proposed setting up a special medical fund to deal with similar situations that may arise in the future.

Then, the meeting entered the stage of rewarding people for their contributions.

Sarutobi Hiruzen stood up and looked around at everyone, his expression serious but with a hint of gratitude.

He first affirmed all the ninjas who participated in the war, saying that everyone had made great contributions to the peace of Konoha.

He looked around at the jonin present and said slowly: "In this war, Konoha Village was able to hold out to the end, thanks to the efforts of everyone present. But some ninjas performed particularly well and must be praised and rewarded. They are the commanders on the front line, Uchiha Kagezuki, Orochimaru, Tsunade, Jiraiya, and Hatake Sakumo who stayed in the village to resist the surprise attack of the Third Raikage."

As soon as he finished speaking, Sarutobi Hiruzen specifically mentioned: "Especially Uchiha Kagezuki, his proper command on the front line helped us win many key battles. Kagezuki's contribution is remembered by everyone in Konoha Village."

Just as Sarutobi Hiruzen was about to continue praising Uchiha Kagezuki, Uchiha Kagezuki stood up.

His eyes were steady, and his voice was filled with an unquestionable determination: "Hokage-sama, victory in the war is not the work of me alone. This success depends on the sacrifice and hard work of every ninja. I request that all of my rewards be used as pensions for the injured or dead ninjas, or as rewards for those warriors who have performed particularly well in the battle."

His speech instantly made the atmosphere in the conference room solemn and dignified.

All the jonin showed touched expressions, some praised in low voices, and some had tears in their eyes.

They knew very well that the proposal of the front-line commander Uchiha Yingyue was not a show, but came from the sincerity of his heart.

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Shadow Moon, feeling deeply moved.

He nodded slightly, his tone full of respect, "Shadow Moon, I will approve your request. This part of the funds will be used to provide pensions to those ninjas who have given everything for the village, and to reward those warriors who have performed well in the war. I will let them know that it was you who gave up your reward to them."

The meeting room erupted in applause, with all the jonin admiring Kagezuki's selfless act.

Uchiha Kagezuki's move was not without purpose. He used money, which was of little use to Kagezuki, to exchange for the support of these senior ninjas and grassroots ninjas. They were the core of Konoha. Whoever they recognized would be the uncrowned king of Konoha. At the same time, this process would also earn Kagezuki a large amount of destiny points.

After this meeting, the reconstruction of Konoha Village was carried out in full swing, the pensions for the injured and dead ninjas were properly arranged, and those ninjas who performed outstandingly also received due rewards.

Uchiha Kagezuki's selfless act became a legend in the entire village, inspiring every ninja to continue to strive to become a person like Kagezuki in the future.

After the war, Konoha Village gradually returned to peace, but Uchiha Yingyue's heart was still uneasy.

He was not overwhelmed by the joy of peace, but quietly devoted himself to another extremely important task - helping Tsunade resurrect her brother Senju Nawaki.

Uchiha Kagezuki teamed up with Orochimaru and began a long and dangerous experiment.

They stayed in the laboratory day and night, Uchiha Kagezuki focused on studying the forbidden technique "Ji-Reincarnation", while Orochimaru kept trying to improve the "Impure World Reincarnation" technique, hoping to find a perfect way to revive Rope Tree.

In a month, they experienced countless failures, but also gradually accumulated experience and results.

Although Tsunade is a medical ninja, she is extremely concerned about her brother's resurrection and often assists in the laboratory to prevent accidents.

Finally, after a month of intensive experiments, they decided to make a final attempt.

In order to ensure the success of the experiment, they found two death row ninjas from Konoha Prison as sacrifices.

Uchiha Kagezuki proposed a bold idea: before the Impure World Reincarnation, inject the sacrifice with Hashirama's cells to improve the quality of the Impure World Body. Orochimaru agreed with this and decided to put this strategy into practice.

When Hashirama's cells were injected into the body of the first death row inmate, the cells multiplied rapidly, and the inmate's body began to mutate uncontrollably, gradually transforming into the form of a tree.

Seeing that the entire experimental body was about to be completely devoured by Hashirama's cells, Orochimaru decisively performed the Impure World Reincarnation Technique.

In an instant, the Impure World Reincarnation body condensed in the light, and the figure of Senju Nawaki gradually appeared. Although there were still cracks unique to the Impure World Reincarnation on his body, he did stand in front of everyone.

When Qianju Shengshu opened his eyes, he looked a little confused. He murmured, "Wasn't I killed by the detonating talisman?"

Hearing the familiar voice, Tsunade could no longer control her emotions and rushed towards her brother, hugging him tightly.

The pain, guilt and sadness of these days turned into tears and rolled down at this moment.

Senju Nawaki was stunned for a moment, then gently patted his sister's back. Feeling the warm touch, he seemed to realize that he was really resurrected.

The brother and sister reunited after a long separation and had a lot to talk about. Tsunade excitedly talked a lot with Nawaki, recalling every little detail of their childhood, as if to make up for the time they had lost these days.

However, Uchiha Kagezuki interrupted them: "The time for reminiscing is over. Rope Tree has not yet been fully resurrected."

Uchiha Kagezuki turned to look at the other death row inmate, preparing to take the final steps of his own reincarnation.

Immediately afterwards, Uchiha Kagezuki used his Sharingan to control another death row ninja and performed his own reincarnation technique.

The filthy earth body of the Thousand Hands Rope Tree, which was originally full of cracks, began to heal slowly, and those cracks with ominous colors gradually disappeared, as if they had never existed.

Rope Tree's skin regained the luster of a living person, and his breath gradually became real and powerful, completely free from the incomplete state of Impure World Reincarnation.

"Now, Senju Rope Tree is truly resurrected." Uchiha Yingyue said softly, with a hint of fatigue in his eyes, but more of relief.

Tsunade looked at her brother's body, which no longer had any trace of the smell of the filth, and felt his warm hands, tears glistening in her eyes.

When Senju Nawaki felt that he had regained his life, his gratitude was beyond words.

He looked at Uchiha Kagezuki and Orochimaru, his heart filled with gratitude and admiration.

Tsunade could hardly suppress her inner excitement, and tears welled up in her eyes again.

She held Yingyue's hand tightly and said with a sob: "Yingyue, thank you... Thank you so much."

Uchiha Yingyue felt a little relieved when he looked at the reborn Senju Rope Tree in front of him.

Although the resurrection process was complicated and dangerous, the final result was satisfactory.

This result not only allowed Tsunade to get out of the shadow of her brother's death in battle, but also made Orochimaru realize that life is not fragile. In the face of the miracle of resurrection, eternal life does not seem far away.
