Naruto: Rain Cleanses the World

Peace without love and justice is no different from destruction. - Athena's saying. In Konoha's fifty-fifth year, a long-haired young man with his eyes gently closed stood with his hands behind his back atop Hokage Rock. His resonant chant echoed throughout Konoha:

When the Hokage breaks the law, he is to be judged like any other villager. I cast aside the Uchiha name and become a commoner; now, I will judge Konoha!!!

The Buddha's bell rings once in a lifetime,

Then returns to a humble home, stirring the heart.

Today, flames rise three thousand feet,

To bring a bright peace back to the world.

"The history books of the shinobi world record: First, Konoha was judged; then, the shinobi world. In the name of Rain, cleanse all under heaven. His name was 'The Man Closest to God' - Uchiha Yu."
