Luck is on Ars' side.
As he infiltrated Shikimi's house, the other party wasn't home. That makes it easier for Ars to do Ars's job.
Although he wanted to see Shikimi to determine whether the other party was a Reinkarnator or a Transmigrator, since fate did not unite them, Ars did not think too much about it.
His priority is stealing the Star Element Ninjutsu scroll (Seiton).
After searching in various places, Ars found dozens of scrolls tucked away in boxes under the bed.
(Really cliche... Did Shikimi not think of a better hidden place? Never mind, this also eases my work.)
Ars touched the padlock that locked the box, and used mid-level magic.
"[Unlock]."
*click*
There was a click, and he opened the box.
He found there were eight scrolls, opening them one by one, he roughly read the contents of the scroll.
(Bingo! I got it!)
Ars' eyes sparkled brightly reading the scroll in his hand.
The jutsu met the criteria he wanted. After checking the other rolls, and not finding a good Jutsu, he closed the box back, and placed it under the mattress.
(Travel this time is quite profitable, time to return to Konoha.)
Ars leaves Shikimi's house in an invisible state, then flies at high speed.
...
Time passed like flowing water, without feeling five years had passed.
At home, Ars was reading a novel on the couch.
Because of its lazy nature, the room became very messy. Plastic bottles, snack wrappers, and other rubbish were seen strewn across the floor.
Suddenly someone appeared in the room, without taking his eyes off the book, Ars had already guessed who it was through [Magic Sense].
"It's not usual for you to visit me, Madara."
There was no answer, the atmosphere of the place was very quiet.
Feeling something was amiss, Ars put the book in his hands, and saw Madara involved more gloomy than usual. Before he asked, the other party stated that surprised him.
"I'm leaving this village."
"..."
Seeing Madara's serious expression, Ars knew he wasn't joking.
"Haaa... So this time has come, huh." Ars took a breath.
Madara's brows frowned slightly hearing that, as if the other party had long expected him to make this decision.
"That's all I want to say, goodbye."
"Wait Madara!"
"Want to stop me?"
"No, because it's your own wish, I respect it. It's up to you to achieve your dreams, but don't put Konoha at risk. If not, I'll have to take action."
"If that really happens, I'll enjoy our fight."
With an eerie smile, Madara looked back, her black eyes turning blood red with three tomoe.
After declaring that, Madara left.
"It seems that peace will soon be over. When the war starts, my lazy life ends and I'll start to get busy."
As Mayor of Konohagakure Village, Ars fought as a protector from the threat that wanted to attack the Village.
*Knock Knock Knock*
The knocking of the door sounded loudly accompanied by Hashirama's voice.
"Ars, open the door. There's something important I want to tell you."
Ars would usually be contacted by Anbu if Hashirama needed him. Now, he came directly, the urgency of the matter must be urgent.
"Wait a minute, I'm coming!" Shouted Ars.
Passing through the trash heap, he opened the door and saw Hashirama still wearing the Hokage uniform.
"There's bad news!"
"Huh? How do you know that?"
"He just came to say goodbye to me."
"Then why don't you persuade her!"
"Just for nothing, Madara had determined to leave the village. He won't hear your words, I'm sure you've also persuaded him, and failed."
Hashirama was silent, because what Ars said was true!
"Other than Madara, what about the other members of the Uchiha Clan?" Ask Ars.
After all, Madara was the patriarch of this generation's Uchiha Clan.
Hashirama shook his head and explained.
"You don't need to worry, there aren't any members of the Uchiha Clan following Madara. Everyone is tired of fighting and is used to peace."
"So so... Makes sense." Ars was not surprised.
Just like poor people who become rich, they do not want to live a poor life anymore after enjoying a rich life. The people of Konohagakure Village were the same, they did not want to fight after enjoying the sweetness of peace.
Ars patted Hashirama on the shoulder and said: "You better get ready."
"Watch up for what?" Hashirama asked confusedly.
Although Madara had left the village, he never thought his friend would attack Konohagakure Village.
"You'll know when the time comes. Look, your little brother has arrived."
Ars raised his chin as a gesture.
Looking back, Hashirama saw Tobirama coming with an annoyed expression. Then he was dragged by his younger brother to the Hokage building to handle the pile of documents.
Closing the door, Ars again lay on the sofa, but he did not continue reading.
"I don't know for sure when Hashirama and Madara fought in the Valley of the End, it should be a few months away. Kyubi is currently owned by the Uzumaki Clan, Madara will definitely catch him as a tool."
Ars is unsure if he can beat Madara in his current form. If it's his main body, it's not hard to beat Madara who doesn't have a Rinnegan yet. Only Madara who has become Jinchuriki Juubi has a chance of defeating him.
However, Ars is currently using clones, and his main body is in a crucial phase in understanding the Crypto Space. He did not want his hundreds of years of efforts to fail now.
"Because of my interference, there is a high chance that the next situation will not go according to the plot, I better make preparations."
The lazy aura on Ars disappears and is replaced by a seriousness that is rarely seen. Then his figure disappeared.
...
The days passed peacefully.
Three months later.
In Konohagakure Village, the citizens look carefree and cheerful, the children play innocently without having to be sent to the battlefield like a few years before, and the war veterans are getting used to the peace.
With abundant resources, and supported by the Fire Nation, Konohagakure Village achieved prosperity, which made the other four villages envious.
Kirigakude Village surrounded by the sea, Sunagakure Village there is only sand, Iwagakure Village has a rocky soil, and Kumogakure Village is located in the hills.
Simply put, the geography of other villages is not as good as Konohagakure Village.
Even at night, Konohagakure Village is still crowded with citizen activities. However, there are people who want to destroy that peace.
"[Kuchiyose no Jutsu (Summoning Technique)]"
A person wearing a red pilgrimage suit, hit the ground, writing spread around the ground, and white smoke suddenly appeared.
Then the strongest Bijuu, Kyubi appears in the middle of Konohagakure Village.
Its size is very large, exceeding the height of the surrounding buildings. Kyubi has a very striking height and width.
"ROARRR"
It was only his rumbling that destroyed the surrounding buildings.
"Gurghhh!"
"That's Kyubi! Run!"
"Call Shodai Hokage!"
After being stunned, residents panicked and ran away like bees whose hives were destroyed.
In a house, Ars who was asleep opened his eyes because of the commotion.
"It's started..."
