Naruto: Unlocking Kaido Template

Upon learning that the four deceased Kage had appeared in the territory of the Wind Country, a hastily formed coalition of several other villages also mobilized to provide support—at the very least to prevent war from spilling into their own lands.

Perhaps they had forgotten that in the previous Great Ninja Wars, they had shifted the conflict to smaller nations, ones too weak to resist. Back then, they had never considered the suffering of these minor villages. This was how the small village where Nagato once lived was annihilated, planting in him a twisted concept of "peace."

After attacking Konoha and being interviewed by Zixu, Nagato had decided to continue on his own path. But now, he looked nothing like the god of peace he once claimed to be.

His eyes were shut, and he could only move with Konan's support. His body was thin and fragile, and worse, he had lost both his Rinnegan and his unique powers. In a war of this scale, what use was a man so crippled?

Though blind, Nagato could still hear the screams of war echoing in his ears. Leaning on Konan, he limped toward a destination—the City in the Sky.

Zixu had originally intended to capture Crocodile after finishing off Kozuki Oden, but he grew concerned that Hyuga Chinano might not hold out much longer. With a glance at the trembling Crocodile, Zixu simply grabbed the unconscious Kozuki Oden and turned to leave.

"And these two swords..." he muttered, picking up Oden's blades. These were supreme-grade weapons—a rare treasure among sword wielders. He was sure Haku and Zabuza would be very interested.

As Zixu made his way back, his thoughts turned to Sara, who had been hiding underground. Now that war had broken out, the puppet of Roran could finally be unleashed.

"It's a pity that Sasori is the only power source. That'll make things tricky," Zixu sighed, watching as Sara slowly moved the massive puppet toward the surface. It creaked and groaned as it rose.

"Sara! Follow me. The City will hover above. You'll use it as a flying fortress—rain hell from above," Zixu instructed as he led the puppet forward. But along the way, he encountered a surprise.

"Nagato? Konan? What are you doing here?" Zixu was stunned to see the pair limping toward him. None of the Six Paths of Pain were present, making the situation seem more dire than he'd imagined.

Konan quickly explained that Uchiha Madara had reclaimed Nagato's eyes, revealing that they'd been used all along. Nagato was merely a pawn.

"I see... We'll talk later. But why come to me?" Zixu's curiosity about the man claiming to be Madara was piqued.

Konan still shielded Nagato with her body. She remembered Zixu's vision—the advanced technology of Uzumaki Country had made waves in recent years. She hoped they could save Nagato here.

"I understand. Let's head back first. We can treat him. But in return, I want full intel on Uchiha Madara—and on that giant golem I saw behind you that day."

Konan agreed. The Gedō Mazō (Outer Path Demon Statue) hadn't just drained Nagato's chakra; it had nearly consumed his life. It was a miracle he'd even made it this far.

With their destination set, they traveled together. Aburame Hatsuizumi and the others had not disappointed Zixu. The mutated White Zetsu fell like insects before the overwhelming firepower of the mechanized army. Even those revived by Kuchiyose: Edo Tensei (Summoning: Impure World Reincarnation) and considered invincible were quickly sealed away.

Those still standing—gifted individuals led by Kin'emon—were continuing to resist. Haku withdrew his icy sword and stared at Kin'emon in disbelief. How was he still alive after being struck by three blades and a laser cannon?

But even that stubborn beast crumbled when Zixu approached, dragging the unconscious Kozuki Oden by the hair.

"O-Oden... General..." Kin'emon dropped his blade, his legs trembling. He could no longer stand.

Zixu didn't even glance at him. His words cut colder than Haku's blade.

"A dog without its master shouldn't bite others at random. Oh, and we've captured your young master, Momonosuke. So, how would you like to die?"

With the final resistance broken, the crisis surrounding Sky Castle ended. The sealed undead warriors still hadn't realized what was happening. They had all been evil in life. Now revived, they fantasized about ruling the world with immortal bodies and endless chakra.

Zixu had other plans. These "monsters" were nothing more than biological batteries.

"Wait... if the caster of Edo Tensei dies or cancels the jutsu, I lose all my free labor..." Zixu grumbled. "Tch. Better capture that guy and re-educate him."

"Karin, prep the medical team. Nagato needs surgery. Your Aoki-en (Blue Flame Garden) should do the trick. Transplanting an eyeball isn't that hard. We've had some Sharingan left over from Orochimaru. Let's give him a pair."

Konan shivered hearing Zixu casually talk about eye replacements like it was no big deal. But Zixu had already left. As the red clouds ignited around them, the city lifted again, positioning itself above the Roran Puppet.

The Edo Tensei undead were stuffed into the puppet as its new power source. The colossal machine began to move with renewed agility—slowly but powerfully.

Sunagakure was nearly finished. Reinforcements from the other villages were proving useless.

The Third Raikage stood like a monster on the battlefield. With the strongest body and most devastating offense, his Jigokuzuki (Hell Stab) was terrifying. The fewer fingers he used, the deadlier the attack.

Hōzuki Mangetsu summoned his beast Mirage, using genjutsu to conceal his true location. Clones made of high-temperature oil exploded relentlessly, each blast annihilating dozens of soldiers.

In the desert, Rasa's gold dust surged with fury, turning the battlefield into a golden graveyard.

Then there was Mu, the wielder of Jinton (Dust Release). Everything it touched was disintegrated completely. Even Ōnoki, though powerful, struggled to fight his master. The others didn't stand a chance.

"BOOM BOOM BOOM—" The ground trembled as Roran mechanical body rose like a mountain, casting a massive shadow. The coalition army, already exhausted, finally gave in to despair. Many collapsed where they stood.

But just as hopelessness peaked, a new voice echoed from the puppet's mouth.

"Why so gloomy, old men? Allow me to show you the power... of technology."

Aburame Hatsuizumi's voice resounded from within Roran, and even the "F4"—the revived Kage—turned in shock toward the towering weapon.
