Overlord Naruto - Volume 1 Chapter 57 57 Naruto In Iron Country
…Konoha….
After getting the invitation of five kage summit from Raikage . Tsunade is preparing for the summit . She is going with Naruto , Hiruzen and anko to the kage summit .
” What do you think shikaku ? What are the intentions of Raikage to call for the kage summit ? Kage summit never happened after the death of my granduncle Tobirama ,” Tsunade asked shikaku while signing a doc.u.ment . She has to finish her paperwork so she can go home to prepare for the kage summit .
” He wants to see whether leaf is powerful like the old days . He may also want to compare the new kage’s of mist and sand . Sand village has not elected their kazekage . They will send one of their kazekage candidate in the meeting . Kumogakure is behaving very suspiciously . Our spies informed that they are searching for Kai uzumaki . He is one of the survivor of the uzumaki destruction . Now he is disrupting their peace ,” Shikaku said to Tsunade . He is one of the most intelligent elite jonin in konoha .
” Kai uzumaki , I remember that name . He is one of the young uzumaki and the most talented guy before the uzushiogakure destruction . He might be somewhere else when the destruction happened . We can say he wants revenge on them and this time he is fully prepared ,” Tsunade said to shikaku . She finished her paperwork . And looked at shikaku who is in deep thought .
” Do you think he will attack us in future ? For not helping uzumaki clan at that time ,” Shikaku asked her . He didn’t want an uzumaki to attack in his village .
” He will never attack our village . First thing it is a village which is founded by senju . And second Naruto lives here . Even in our most disturbing time we will never attack each other . If Raikage ask for any help regarding Kai . Never help him in that matter . I don’t want to make Kai the enemy of konoha ,” Tsunade said clearly to shikaku . She will not go against Kai . Even it means war with kumogakure .
” I totally understand it . Kumo never obeyed the treaty between us . They disobeyed it on the same day . We would never want to help that kind of allies who can stab us on our back anytime ,” Shikaku said to her . He never liked the treaty between kumogakure and konohagakure . Kumo disobeyed the treaty when they tried to kidnap Hinata on the same day .
” Let them think we are still allies . I will give them the taste of their own medicine one day . But we have to wait for that . Till I come back from the kage summit you are my replacement as the hokage . You can handle konoha for few days in my absence ,” Tsunade said to shikaku . He never thought that she will appoint him as the temporary kage .
” What a drag ? I thought you will appoint kakashi . Well it is for few days then I can handle it . But please never recommend me for hokage candidate in the future ,” Shikaku said to her . He will eliminate all his chances for the future . It is a troublesome job for anyone as intelligent as shikaku .
” Okay I will take it as a suggestion . But you have to take a good care of konoha in my absence . Make sure to keep an eye on Danzo ,” Tsunade said to him . She wants to retire for the day . She is free today as shizune is going to teach Sakura today in her place .
” Who are going with you in the meeting lady hokage ?” Shikaku asked her . According to that he has to make changes later while assigning mission .
” It’s third hokage , anko and Naruto . Anything else you want to ask . Tomorrow I have to leave early in the morning . If there is no work I want to retire for the day . Irene and shizune will help you in the office in my absence ,” Tsunade said to shikaku and left the office .
‘She is taking third hokage, anko and Naruto . Naruto is chunin only in name . All of them are aggressive type except Lord third . It looks like she is ready attack anyone . Anyway now this kage summit is all about showing the power unlike the previous ones . Raikage is stupid to call for summit in the name of preserving peace among ninja nations . He is quite desperate in making decisions . I should leave to house otherwise Yoshino will be angry if I don’t give her some time ,’ Shikaku thought in his mind . He also finished his work . So he left the office while praying to God that yoshino will be in happy mood .

…Amegakure….
Akatsuki hideout…
Next day…
” You all have heard the recent proposal of kumogakure . They will give us a lot of money if we eliminate Kai uzumaki . But the problem is we couldn’t track Kai if we don’t know how he looks like . It is one of the biggest assignment we have ever got as the members of akatsuki ,” Pain said to the akatsuki members . He is not sure himself how to find there new target .
” Have you tried to look at the uzuamki ruins . He might be there . It is the least expected place but that is his home so we can either find him or some clues regarding him ,” Itachi said to them . Even for him Kai uzumaki is mysterious man .
All of them looked at Itachi as he is a genius among them for making strategies . Even pain gave some thought about it .
” I already tried that but all my clones died before they entered uzushiogakure . The whole sea around the island is surrounded by fuinjutsu array . No one can enter inside . All non uzumaki dies while touching the barrier . I thought my clones will not be detected by fuinjutsu but it was on different level . No one left that island under the watch of my clones who are stationed nearby . Either no one leaves the island or no one live in that place ,” Black zetsu said to them . He embarrassed to tell them that his clones are detected by fuinjutsu which never happened with the current level of fuinjutsu among others .
” It is the first time I heard that you failed to infiltrate a place . It should be expected by the level of fuinjutsu my clan possessed . It could bring down even gods to do their biddings . The island is like that from few decades . The island is the place of bad memories and no uzumaki will enter that place . It is a reminder of bad things happened to us . But still keep your spies near that place . Even if Kai lives there he will come outside someday or he will give a visit to that place in future ,” Pain said to zetsu . He is sure that Kai will visit that place in future but he is not sure whether he lives in that place or not .
” Yes pain sama . I will do it ,” Zetsu replied to him .
” Raikage is afraid of Kai uzumaki . It is the first time I heard someone is threatening a great ninja village alone ,” Deidara said to them . He is laughing on the current situation of Raikage .
” How much powerful is that old man ? Once he reveal himself I can cut him in pieces with my samehada ,” Kisame said to them . He has not forgotten that his blade samehada was injured during the fight with that uzumaki lady .
” That is what we are trying to do Kisame . But he isn’t going to reveal himself if we don’t search for him . It is a tough job when you don’t know who is your opponent in the first place . Element of surprise is on his side ,” Kakuzu said to Kisame . As a professional bounty Hunter he always knew his target faces or the place where they reside before he went to kill them . It is the first time he is in this kind of situation .
” We have to kill a red haired person . It is very simple ,” Hidan opened his mouth .
” There are complications in killing every red haired guy . Fifth hokage’s husband is also a red haired person and an uzuamki . He travels the whole world . We don’t want to kill him by accident for now ,” Zetsu said to them . He want to capture him later to bargain him for naruto .
” Well we can capture hokage’s husband later to bargain for Naruto . You are quite a sly one in our group ,” Pain said to zetsu . He immediately understood the plan of zetsu .
” Hai pain sama . We can trade Menma uzumaki for Naruto uzumaki . He would not want his uncle get killed because of him . Afterall he treasures his family more than anything ,” Zetsu said to them . He has smile on his Black and White face .
Suddenly a projection of a person appeared infront of them in the thin air . The colourless person opened his mouth .
” Hello Akatsuki . I am Kai uzumaki the same person you are searching . What a day I found all of you before you can begin the search for me ,” Kai uzumaki , an elderly uzuamki said to them while playing with his beard .
” Where are you old man ? Tell me and I will kill you without pain ,” Hidan said to him .
” Ohh jashin’s bitch is here . I didn’t see you . If I meet you I will smack your butt for calling me old man . Hahahahaha,” Kai said to him and started to laugh at him . Hidan couldn’t hold himself and went to cut him. But he went through him .
” What you want with us Kai uzuamki ? I can track you down if you want to kill yourself because of all the pain you suffered ,” Pain said to Kai . He couldn’t. believe that this guy tracked them down so easily .
” Puny God I am an uzumaki vengeance on this world . Your plan is bound to fail . Where your plan stops my plan starts from that place ,” Kai said to them . His projection is smiling on them .
” What do you mean our plan is bound to fail ? How it is the start of your plan ?” Konan asked him . She has a very bad feeling about it . She also want to give enough time to nagato to track kai down .
” Are you trying to track me . Don’t bother about it . Even with your godly powers you cannot track me . For your question young lady . You will see when the time comes . Even Madara Uchiha is not enough to stop me . You want this whole world to feel pain .But I want them to feel the wrath of an uzumaki survivor . Especially the main culprit of this whole disaster ,” Kai said and shocked few of them by how he mentioned Madara in his words . Zetsu , Itachi , konan , Kisame and pain became alert by his words .
” Madara Uchiha was one of the strongest shinobi in shinobi history . You brag a lot old man ,” Zetsu said to him . He is now afraid of him . No one surprised him like kai did in few moments which never happened in his thousand year of life .
” Infinite tsukuyomi !!! what an utter failure . Even if you accomplish it . What would you do next ? Even the mother of sage of six paths failed to accomplish anything after using infinite tsukuyomi . Humans have curious personality and they find the jealousy and hatred whatever paths they choose . There were no saints who never committed a sin . There were no sinners who wasn’t innocent one upon a time ,” Kai said to them . He is looking at the them and remembered his old life .
” I get the last few part . But what do you mean by mother of sage of six path used infinite tsukuyomi ,” Itachi asked kai . He got curious about the mother of sage of six paths . No one knows her name . Their is no history about her .
” You will find out when the time come if you remain alive Itachi uchiha . I got little distracted from the main topic . You are trying so hard to find me . So I wanted to show myself without showing myself . You cannot find me without my permission . I came to say hello to all the child present here ,” Kai said and his projection in the thin air disappeared . It looks like Kai doesn’t have time for them anymore . His face is not revealed as it was not clear to them .
” He is really difficult to track . I don’t know what method he used to cover his tracks . It is impossible to track him now but we will continue to search for him . If we couldn’t find him in six months . Then we will fully focus on our other jobs ,” Pain said to them . He has many questions and doubts in his mind after this meeting . If someone has already casted the infinite tsukuyomi on this world . Why it is back to it’s old rhythm . What if he fails like the previous person .
” I think he want to distract us from our objective . He uses the reference of mother of sage of six paths . No one knows about her then how he knows it . He is misleading us and trying to put us against each other ,” Black zetsu said to them . He do not want Kai to ruin his plan . He will do everything to avoid this kind of situation . It is his only chance .
Pain thought about for few minutes . Everyone became silent when he was thinking . They are waiting for his decision .
” We will go with the current plan . I never thought Kai would play with our minds from his words alone . He is sly like a fox . No one will stop us from our ultimate goal . Not even Kai ,” Pain said to his fellow akatsuki members . But the doubts about his plan are already planted by Kai in his mind .
Zetsu is nervous about this Kai uzumaki . He knows a lot of things .
‘ I have to inform everything to Obito with my mixed version of story . This Kai uzumaki is a threat to our plans . But why he said where our plan stops , his plan will begin . If mother becomes free then there is no chance that in this world someone can beat her . Maybe he is planning to take control of juubi the ten tail beast . That is one possibility ,’ Zetsu is in deep thought . He has to be fully prepared for his new enemy .
All the akatsuki members went to rest for the day and zetsu went to inform Obito about the current situations . Pain and konan have there own doubts about the plan from the beginning . But now it became worse after listening to Kai uzumaki .
………………………………..
…..Near Country of Iron ……
Naruto wakes up from his meditation . He produced his own thought projection and transmitted it in the akatsuki hideout with the help of his shadow demons . They cannot trace someone which hides in the own shadows .
” Master what happened after you got the message ,” Anko asked her master . She is worried about him .
” They want to search for Kai uzuamki . Before they can begin to search for him . I wanted to pay them a visit . They should really understand whom they are messing with this time . Naruto uzumaki is a ninja of konoha and he has to follow a pattern to maintain his image . But Kai uzumaki is free from the rules and regulations . He can do whatever he want . I want to showoff a little bit . Let’s go we are near to samurai country ,” Naruto said to hiruzen , Tsunade and anko .
All of them started to run . They cannot teleport directly to samurai country to showoff their true power . So they are travelling like a real ninja .
Soon they enter in Iron country . And meet few samurai’s who are there to lead them to their destination .
” Hello I am samurai who directly works under general mifune . My name is Kota . From here I will lead you to kage summit . But first please verify yourself ,” Kota asked them . Samurai follow a strict law and discipline , no one can change it .
” I am the current hokage of konohagakure , Tsunade senju uzumaki . With me are third hokage Hiruzen sarutobi who is also my sensei . Anko mitarashi who is an elite jonin . And at last my nephew Naruto uzumaki who is also a chunin of konohagakure ,” Tsunade said and gave them their identification papers . They checked them and verified it .
” You look like a very good kenjutsu practitioner Mr Naruto uzumaki . I am surprised by how you maintained your swords ,” Kota said to Naruto . He has very experienced eye who can recognise a good swordsman . He looked at two naruto’s sword and how he carried them . With one look he can tell it was well maintained .
” I have a very good teacher whose whole family dedicated their life to learn the way of swords from generation . They are neither ninja or samurai . I was fortunate enough that he taught me after I requested it ,” Naruto mixed some lies and truth about his real teacher .
” Please could you tell me his name . He earned a very high respect in my eyes , if he is neither a samurai and a ninja ,” Kota asked him . Samurai honour other swordsman if they are worthy even if they are ninja or a commoner .
” His name is Cocytus and he only follow the path of swordsman . In his eyes a person can become a true swordsman when we become one with our blade . Blade is the heart and our body is the mind of it ,” Naruto said to kota . He said the actual words of Cocytus .
” Amazing what a beautiful quote for swordsmanship . I am even more impressed with words of wisdom . This kind of words come only when someone surpasses the limit of human limit ,” Kota is very impressed by the master of Naruto . Even all the samurai looked at Naruto with respect which samurai genuinely doesn’t feel for a ninja .
‘ I will tell about this young boy’s master to our general mifune . He will be very happy to listen to this kind of quote ,’ Kota is thinking about this world’s current number one swordsman .
” Follow me ,” Kota said to them and they followed the group of samurai . After few hours they reached to a giant building where they will attend the kage summit .
