Reborn in Naruto As Madara's Grandson

Chapter 651: 612. End of the Fourth Great Shinobi War ?

"Let's return to the mainland!"

Izuna removes the protective barrier around Donut Island.

"With the isolation barrier around the Redaku gone, it will be open to the entire shinobi world for trade and culture exchange."

Izuna turns to the representatives of the rest of the villages.

"The Donut Island will be the transit hub to visit Redaku. So, I would like every nation to provide some armed forces to protect the peace and quiet of Redaku from rogue shinobis and criminal organizations. The villages can regularly issue missions to provide safety and the Trinity corporation will pay the remuneration. What do you think about this proposal?"

The Kages nod at Izuna's proposal.

"Then you can discuss the rest of the terms with my representative on this island." Izuna turns towards Akai Uzu, the current head of the Uzu clan and Izuna's collaborator.

"Lady Akai, we will send our representative soon!" The Kages bow to Akai.

"Then, I will give you a warm welcome on your next visit!" Akai nods gently.

"Alright, time to leave!"

Swish....

Izuna makes a Ram hand seal and all shinobis on the Redaku island disappear.

Whoosh...

In the next instant, they reappear on the previous battlefield of the Fourth Shinobi War.

"We are back?!" The group stares at their surroundings, recognizing the familiar environment.

"Flying Thunder God Jutsu?!" Tobirama mutters as he recognizes the technique Izuna used to teleport everyone.

"No, it's a much more refined and advanced version of it!" He adds in surprise.

"Correct!" Izuna nods.

"The original version was too tacky!" Tobirama's eyebrow twitches slightly.

'Damn, Uchiha brat! No respect for elders.' He murmurs. However, Izuna pays no heed to it.

"So, I altered the core seal and added several improvements on top to make it much faster and reliable and remove the limitation of adding a mark. With the improved version, a person can teleport to any place they have visited before as long as they have enough chakra to support the teleportation. There is no limitation of distance."

"Hmm... That's quite an improvement." Minato nods.

"I might take a look at it later!"

"Sure!" Izuna throws a scroll toward Minato, who grabs and stores it.

"Can... can I also take a look?" Tobirama asks after some slight hesitation.

"Sure, old man!" Izuna throws another copy of the scroll towards his Granduncle-in-law.

"This place is the battlefield of the final battle!"

The shinobis gasps in shock at the sight of destruction and damage to the surroundings. Several broken mountain ranges, cracked earth with bottomless rifts, flowing fountains of lava, and various other scenes reminiscent of the apocalypse greet the group.

"This is just the tip of the iceberg!" Izuna mutters, much to the shock of the Kages.

"The real battle happened in the other dimensions. With the scale of that battle, not even remains would be left of the shinobi world. The entire planet would be blown into countless space debris, floating endlessly in the void."

Izuna recounts the loss of several dimensions and grimaces in pain.

While the group was musing on the scale of destruction, several Shinobis marched towards them from all directions. This group of shinobis includes the elite few who escaped, and the freshly resurrected shinobis.

The resurrected shinobis stare at each other with confused expressions.

"I thought I died back then!" A Konoha shinobi murmurs and touches his chest.

"Yes, I saw you die with my own eyes." Another Suna shinobi beside him nods.

"A hole was blown in your chest from a stray jutsu!"

"On that note, I thought I also died. But I don't know what killed me. All I saw was a dark shadow." He mutters.

"My guy, you were crushed to death by a massive boulder!" A Kiri shinobi informs him.

"What about you?!" He turns to Kiri Shinobi.

"Well, I..." An embarrassed expression appears on Kiri Shinobi's face.

"I... My... my body was blown to bits by Ten-tail's roar!" The Kiri shinobi shivers as he recalls the terrifying moment when his entire flesh, bones, and muscles were blown away by a powerful blast of shockwaves.

"I don't want to experience something that terrifying again!" His legs tremble from the 'PTSD'.

Several groups of shinobis discuss similar encounters of death with each other.

"God damnit, Byron! Your fat ass crushed me to death!" A shinobi rebukes his fat fellow shinobi.

"Motherf**ker, so it was you who stabbed my ass with his sword." Byron grabs the collar of the fellow.

"Do you know how painful it was?" He grins his teeth.

AH!

The survivors are also shocked to see their dead compatriots alive. Soon, a chaotic cacophony of cries, tears, joy, relief, and various other emotions spreads throughout the Allied Shinobi world.

The Five Kages and several commanders witness the reunion with several emotions. They can feel a sense of camaraderie build among this group of shinobis.

"After several centuries of battles, the shinobi world is finally reunited under a banner!" In the end, the group sighs collectively.

"It's all thanks to Madara!"

The group stares at Madara with a conflicted expression. Even Hashirama shakes his head with emotions.

"Madara's method might be wrong, but he did manage to achieve what I couldn't. So, in the end, it's my loss!"

The clamor continues for another half an hour, as more and more shinobis regroup.

After half an hour, the Kages nod at each other and turn to Shikaku and Inoichi.

Shikaku places his hand on top of Inoichi's forehead and connects to Inoichi's mental network.

"Everyone!"

He murmurs slightly.

"His voice directly appears in the mind of the entire Shinobi alliance." Silence returns to the battlefield as everyone pays attention to Shikaku, ready to hear his next command.

All the shinobis are familiar with Shikaku's voice since they have heard it several times throughout the battle and are thus aware of the latter's identity.

Shikaku pauses, allowing everyone to collect their thoughts.

After a few seconds, he continues.

"The Allied Shinobi Force won the Fourth Shinobi War!" He declares.

"We won!"

"We really won!"

"We won the war?!"

"We fucking won the war!"

....

....

....

Countless such cries echo through the battlefield. The shinobis hug each other and their friends and comrades to celebrate their victory.

Shikaku gives them around five minutes to celebrate the victory.

AHEM...

He clears his throat to get their attention. Silence ensues again as the group of shinobis keenly turns to Shikaku.

"Now for the most pressing question! You fellows might be keenly wondering the details of the war and, most importantly, how your dead compatriots came back to life?"

The shinobis nod collectively.

"I will skip the details, since it won't do you all any good. But the person responsible for our victory and even the resurrection of our dead comrades is Izuna Uchiha. He is the hero of the war, the savior of the world."

"Izuna Uchiha!"

"Izuna Uchiha!"

Soon several cheers spread throughout the crowd.

"And it's not just him!"

Shikaku continues.

"Naruto Uzumaki, Sasuke Uchiha, Kakashi Hatake, Might Gai..." Shikaku lists several names who partook in the final battle.

"These people are the heroes of our world and are the key factor for our victory."

Several cheers of Naruto, Sasuke, Kakashi, and Gai's name echo throughout the battlefield. Shikaku lets them be for a while.

"Now, I have another important information to reveal!" Shikaku's voice turns serious.

"The real culprit behind the war isn't Madara Uchiha!"

"Madara isn't the real culprit?"

A confused expression appears on the shinobi's faces.

"Then who is the real culprit, if it's not Madara?" A collective question rises in every shinobi's mind.

"It's a member of the Akatsuki, Black Zetsu! He is the real mastermind behind the Fourth Shinobi War. And not just the fourth shinobi war, but almost all previous wars and conflicts." Shikaku explains.

He gives a quick narration of Black Zetsu's background, the history of the world, and Black Zetsu's goal.

"Otsutsuki clan?!"

"Otherworldly threats?!"

"Demons?! Devils?!"

The load of information shocks every shinobi's mind.

"I know a lot of you are still confused about the matter. To know more details of the matter, the shinobis from each village can contact the higher-ups of their village and learn all information accordingly." Shikaku adds.

After these words, he retreats, allowing the Kages to take charge.

The Five Kages confirm Shikaku's words, further assuring the authenticity of the information.

After a quick talk, the group orders shinobis to retreat to their camps and prepare for departure.

With these words, the group of shinobis disperse slowly. Only the Kages and commanders are left behind for another meeting.

While this was happening, Izuna teleported his family to Konoha, including Madara and Kasumi's soul.

Madara and Kasumi walk side by side, witnessing the prosperity of the village and the Uchiha clan.

They hold each other's hand and recall some memories.
