What the hell is making games in the Ninja World?.

Chapter 400: Uchiha Hikaru's Redemption (4K)

Coke, delicious!
Hamburger, delicious!
Fried chicken, delicious!
French fries, love to show off!
In a very short period of time, Uchiha Hikaru became completely addicted to the fat otaku meal and became a super foodie.

There was no other way. Who told the Uchiha Hikaru to only endure hardships? Even in that turbulent era of scarcity, few people in the entire Uchiha clan had ever eaten delicious food. Most of the time, they could only eat dry food and ice grain pills. Meat could only be processed in a very primitive way, and the taste of eating it had nothing to do with deliciousness.

But even so, in the eyes of Uchiha Guang in the past, wild boar meat that was roasted over fire and sprinkled with salt was already the most delicious food, and it would be unforgettable after eating it only once.

It can be said that in that era, eating was just to avoid starving to death.

However, now that she has actually tasted the fat otaku meal blessed by technology and hard work, and it is the fat otaku meal produced by the system, Uchiha Hikari's worldview has been completely overturned. The girl realized for the first time with an unbelievable mentality that this is what real deliciousness feels like.

Compared with these fat otaku sets, the roasted wild boar meat that I used to think was the most delicious is simply hard to swallow. I want the taste to disappear directly from my memory.

Therefore, under the impact of delicious food, Uchiha Hikaru completely turned into a foodie. He was addicted to eating and couldn't help himself. He ate so much that his cheeks were bulging, just like a little hamster.

Seeing Uchiha Hikari like this, Uzumaki Kikyo couldn't help but smile, then took out a tissue and wiped his face, her movements gentle, like a caring older sister.

This is indeed the case. Kikyo has now awakened an attribute called 'motherhood'.

After all, seeing her daughter, who was no younger than her, many years in advance, and being hugged by her daughter and crying, while she expressed her inner pain and longing, it was impossible for Kikyo not to awaken her maternal instinct.

Although I am still not used to having a daughter who is the same age as me, and even feel embarrassed, there are some natures that cannot be reversed once they are awakened.

For example, this maternal mentality was inevitably activated when dealing with Uchiha Hikaru.

There's nothing we can do about it. Who made Uchiha Hikaru have such a miserable life and such a tragic background?
Moreover, the experience of being persecuted also reminded Uzumaki Kikyo of the time when she was still in the Kusagakure Village. Wasn't the Kusagakure Village's attitude towards her at that time similar to the attitude of the Uchiha clan towards Uchiha Hikaru in the Warring States Period?
This caused Platycodon to feel a strong sense of sympathy.

In addition, Uchiha Hikaru was also brought back by Uchiha Kai, so empathy was instantly boosted.

"A girl with a similar life story to mine, but who was eventually saved by Brother Qi."

This is how Kikyo perceives Uchiha Hikaru.

Therefore, Kikyo is willing to take good care of Uchiha Hikaru.

With the help of the Fat House Package, Uchiha Hikaru's opinion of Uchiha Kai and Kikyo changed drastically. To use the terminology of the game, his favorability towards them increased a lot.

Feeding increases favorability, and those who don’t know would think you are playing a pet training game.

However, this kind of thing is very normal for Uchiha Hikaru.

Moreover, in this atmosphere, Uchiha Kai struck while the iron was hot and directly invited Uchiha Hikaru to play illusion games together.

Moreover, while making the invitation, the mood was quite subtle. After all, in the 'original' story, the villain who unsealed Uchiha Hikari used Uchiha Hikari's power to create a ninja version of a virtual reality game, which became popular throughout the ninja world. Uchiha Hikari also ran into an NPC in the game, and thus developed communication and bonds with Boruto, the protagonist of Boruto: Naruto Next Generations.

Although this virtual reality game is actually an alternative version of Infinite Tsukuyomi and can absorb the player's chakra through the game, it is indeed a game.

Now, everything has changed. Uchiha Hikaru did not play the game he made, but instead played the illusion game made by Uchiha Kai. It really feels quite subtle.

Uchiha Hikari was confused and bewildered about this illusion game and didn't know what it was. After it was explained clearly, she was very surprised, and then became alert and nervous.

After all, playing games through illusions was really too advanced. Even when illusion games were just being promoted, many people suspected that this was a conspiracy of the Uchiha clan, not to mention Uchiha Hikaru, who had PTSD towards the Uchiha clan.

However, after feeling the kindness of Kikyo and Uchiha Kai, Uchiha Hikaru hesitated when his hostility should have skyrocketed.

Then, seeing that both of them were smiling, without any hostility or murderous intent, but only full of kindness, Uchiha Hikaru finally chose to believe it again and nodded to indicate that he wanted to give it a try.

So, Uchiha Kai and Kikyo took Uchiha Hikari together and entered the illusion game "Home".

The reason why she chose the immortal cultivation game "Homeland" instead of others is simply because for Uchiha Hikaru, fighting and killing is actually something she hates very much. Although she is always aggressive after experiencing a terrible life in the Warring States Period, what she desires in her heart is the warmth of family affection and a peaceful life.

This means that no other games are suitable for Uchiha Hikaru, only "Home" is suitable for her.

Well, actually Jiraiya's artistic masterpiece is also quite suitable, but if Uchiha Hikaru plays that kind of game, the power of the Crab God will come across the dimension and destroy everything to ashes.

So, soon, Uchiha Hikaru was brought into "Home", where he experienced a dream environment that was extremely real yet completely different from the real world.

The girl was astonished at the fact that as long as there were enough materials, all kinds of buildings could be easily created. Her eyes were wide open with disbelief, and she felt that everything in the world was so dreamy and false, yet so beautiful.

Soon, Uchiha Hikaru became addicted to the fun of the game. With the authority of Uchiha Kai as the administrator, there was no shortage of materials, so Uchiha Hikaru could fully enjoy the game.

Seeing Uchiha Hikaru completely immersed in the game and completely letting down his guard, Uchiha Kei and Uzumaki Kikyo looked at each other and smiled happily.

Because, what this means is that Uchiha Hikaru is melting the hedgehog side of himself.

That's enough.

Because, in this way, Uchiha Hikari can be brought into the 'illusion world' that truly belongs to the inner members.

Yes, that is the real purpose.

The reason why Uchiha Hikari was not allowed to go in directly was because if he wanted to go in directly, Uchiha would have to use the Sharingan, and the other party would be unable to resist or the resistance would be ineffective.

Like Minato Namikaze and Kikyo, they did not resist at all and were easily pulled in by Uchiha Kai. Similar to Sasuke's first encounter, his resistance was ineffective. But Uchiha Hikari was different. This girl, who was like a hedgehog wrapped in her inner thorns, had a strong PTSD when facing the Sharingan. There was no such thing as non-resistance.

Even if Uchiha Kai had shown a lot of kindness before, it would be the same, because the damage caused by years of experience could not be healed in a short time.

However, Uchiha Hikaru happens to possess an extremely powerful Mangekyō Sharingan. With Uchiha Kai's current ability, even if he has to force it, he can still suppress the opponent and forcibly drag him into the spiritual network world.

However, if he did something like this, Uchiha Hikari's good impression of Uchiha Kai would definitely disappear, and she would completely fall into incomparable madness and alertness. It would be very troublesome to calm the girl down and relax after that.

Uchiha Kai didn't want to go through such trouble, nor did he want to slowly appease Uchiha Guang afterwards. He didn't want to make things difficult for himself, and he didn't have that kind of patience.

Therefore, instead of causing trouble later, it is better to do a little more at the beginning so that Uchiha Hikaru can relax his mind and cooperate on his own.

With the authority of the mental network controller, Uchiha Kai can directly pull Uchiha Hikari into the mental network world through illusion games, and make Uchiha Hikari unaware.

For example, now, when Uchiha Guang was immersed in the game and completely fascinated by the relaxing and enjoyable gameplay, Uchiha Qi directly used his administrator's authority, and then used "Let's go to a more fun place" as an introduction to arouse Uchiha Guang's curiosity, and at the same time, he accompanied the two of them in a relaxed manner.

When passing through a big door, Uchiha Guang felt dizzy. After the scenery in front of him changed, he came to a vast and beautiful grassland.

The sight of a plain where the sky and the earth meet made Uchiha Hikaru open his eyes wide. He was shocked by this unprecedented beauty and exclaimed "Wow".

However, he then asked curiously: "Where is this place?"

Uchiha Kai smiled and said, "This is the hidden place in the game. It is also our secret base, a place called 'Illusion World'. Only those we approve of can come here."

Hearing this, Uchiha Hikaru's eyes widened slightly, and he pointed at himself with a surprised look: "You mean, I am someone you recognize? Um...but, but I..."

Feelings of tension and uneasiness surged up, as well as a strong sense of inferiority and entanglement. The girl obviously felt that she did not deserve recognition. After all, even until now, she still thought that she was just a humble tool - even though she hated and resented this identity, but under long-term PUA, she was still forced to accept this anti-human setting.

Therefore, now that she was suddenly treated as one of her own, Uchiha Hikari was surprised, but she did not feel happy at all. Instead, she felt inferior and terrified, because she subconsciously believed that she did not deserve these.

Faced with such a situation, Kikyo naturally stepped forward to comfort and encourage.

The girl was very patient and gentle. She used a friendly tone and the Uzumaki clan's natural passion and warmth to warm Uchiha Hikari's closed and inferior heart. At the same time, Uchiha Kei also said with a calm smile the words that made Uchiha Hikari distracted.

"Yes, Guang, you are not one of us right now. But, as Kikyo said, we all believe that you will become one of us in the future, and you deserve such treatment and life."

The core of such words is "trust".

This was something that Uchiha Hikaru had never obtained or experienced before, trust in her not as a tool, but as a human being.

Such an experience made Uchiha Guang feel at a loss. The emotions surging in her heart made her not know what to do, because she had no idea what her mood was at the moment.

After a long while, Uchiha Hikaru's eyes wandered, not daring to look them in the eye. He twisted his fingers nervously and said unconfidently, "I'm sorry, I, I don't quite understand. Now, I, um, I'm sorry..."

Unable to speak clearly, the girl didn't even know how to express what she wanted to say.

In response, Kikyo hugged Uchiha Hikaru with heartache. The warm hug made the girl's eyes widen and she was completely stunned.

Then, Uchiha Kai, who saw this scene, was moved, and said with a malicious but sincere smile: "You don't need to have any psychological burden, just smile."

Hearing this, Uchiha Guang looked at Uchiha Qi blankly, then his eyes dropped as if he was thinking, and finally, his expression stiffened for a while, as if he wanted to smile.

However, the girl didn't know how to smile, and finally she could only say apologetically: "I'm sorry, I don't know how to smile..."

Now Uchiha Kai couldn't laugh anymore. Although he knew that Uchiha Hikari's life was very tragic, when such words were heard, Uchiha Kai could only sigh helplessly and rub the girl's head.

"Don't force yourself. Wait until you can laugh from the bottom of your heart, then laugh as much as you want!"

"As I said before, now, no one will force you, you just need to live as yourself."

Although these words were like white moonlight to Uchiha Hikaru, Uchiha Kai had no intention of plotting against the other party. All his words came from his heart.

And after that, Uchiha Kei and Kikyo took Uchiha Hikari to play in this illusion world.

The amusement park is materialized, the sea is shown, various animals are refreshed, and various delicacies are simulated.

Various things kept appearing, allowing Uchiha Guang to experience them continuously.

The girl who had never had a happy childhood finally experienced the wonderful life that a girl should truly experience in a peaceful and prosperous world.

These experiences did not exceed the level of ordinary people, that is, they were not super-national level, but something that a girl from a well-off family could experience - of course, based on the standards of Uchiha Kei's Chinese family before he traveled through time, not that of the ninja world.

In the ninja world, it is a super-national level. After all, many things do not exist in the ninja world.

However, no matter what, after this experience, Uchiha Hikaru truly understood what true happiness is, and the girl who had never laughed before also unknowingly began to smile all the time.

It was a laugh that came from the heart.

Just as Uchiha Kei said, let Uchiha Hikaru laugh as much as he can.
