After waiting for a while, Uchiha Obito and the others were sure they wouldn't come back, so he didn't go back. Instead, he went straight to the villa in the Takamagahara space.
Mikoto Uchiha, inside the space, had been waiting. Although she knew that with Uchiha Kakuzan's strength, there were few people in the world who could rival him, let alone kill him.
However, knowing is one thing, and worrying is another. So, after entering the space, Uchiha Mikoto waited for news from Uchiha Okayama, even ignoring Uchiha Sasuke who was fast asleep nearby.
When Uchiha Okayama entered the space and arrived at Uchiha Mikoto's place, Uchiha Mikoto finally relaxed. Regardless of whether her son was beside her, she threw herself into Uchiha Okayama's arms, hugging him tightly. Only by listening to Okayama's strong and powerful heartbeat could she calm down her tense emotions.
After being hugged by Mikoto, Uchiha Kakuyama sensed her nervousness, raised his hand, and gently patted her back to calm her down, saying, "Don't worry, he's just a petty thief who overestimates himself. I easily dealt with him."
After holding Uchiha Kazuyama for a while, Uchiha Mikoto reluctantly let go of him, since Uchiha Sasuke was still fast asleep beside her. She raised her little face, looked at Uchiha Kazuyama, and asked, "Are you alright?"
Uchiha Kakuyama shook his head. "No, there aren't many people in this world who can hurt me. That intruder wasn't good enough. But it's a pity that when I beat him to the point of being unable to resist, his companion rescued him. His companion is good at escaping, so I didn't chase after him."
When Mikoto Uchiha heard that Uchiha Kousan was unharmed, she calmed down and comforted him, "It's alright. As long as you're okay, that's all that matters. If we can't catch him this time, we'll have another chance next time."
Uchiha Kakuzan wasn't particularly upset about not capturing Uchiha Obito. With Uchiha Mikoto's comforting words, his slight displeasure subsided. He hugged his beloved Mikoto tightly, and with a thought, moved to an empty room and kissed her red lips.
Seeing that her surroundings had changed, Mikoto Uchiha felt relieved and responded passionately to Uchiha Okayama's kiss.
······
While Uchiha Kakuzan was being affectionate with Mikoto in the spatial dimension, in a remote place far from Konoha Village, Black and White Zetsu used the Mayfly Technique to pull out the lifeless Uchiha Obito.
This was also a stroke of luck for Obito Uchiha, because he possessed a body fused with a White Zetsu. This allowed him to use some Wood Release techniques and enabled the White Zetsu to use the Mayfly Technique while carrying him along. Otherwise, with his spirit severely damaged, Obito would have been unable to use Kamui's intangibility and would have been helpless against a Kage-level ninja like Uchiha Kakuzan. (Actually, at this point, Uchiha Kakuzan had already reached the threshold of Super Kage level.)
After being thrown to the ground by Zetsu, Obito Uchiha remained curled up there. After all, he had just been tortured in the genjutsu space for three days and three nights by Uchiha Kakuzan using Tsukuyomi. It was already quite remarkable that he hadn't passed out on the spot.
Black and White Zetsu looked at Uchiha Obito curled up on the ground and exchanged glances. After all, they had also come out of the Kamui dimension with Uchiha Obito, but they had hidden underground under Uchiha Obito's cover.
They had witnessed the clash between Uchiha Obito and Uchiha Kakuzan firsthand. In their eyes, Uchiha Kakuzan was a true member of the Uchiha clan, not only for his temperament and arrogant personality, but also for his unpredictable eye techniques, all of which made him a typical master of the Uchiha clan.
Obito Uchiha, on the other hand, was a master who was prematurely matured. Although he was doing very well with his unpredictable Kamui eye technique and could pretend to be a master in front of other masters, his weaknesses were magnified when facing masters of the Uchiha clan and the Mangekyou Sharingan. In particular, when facing the Mangekyou Sharingan eye techniques that were designed to counter his Kamui, he was simply beaten to a pulp.
This is why Obito Uchiha wanted to wipe out the Uchiha clan. Moreover, even after annihilating the Uchiha clan, Obito was still very wary of Itachi Uchiha, who had joined the Akatsuki organization. He only emerged from behind the scenes after Itachi's death.
Unfortunately, facing Itachi Uchiha, who also possessed the Mangekyou Sharingan, both of Itachi's eye techniques were quite effective against him. Even the one-time eye technique that Itachi left in Sasuke's eyes—Amaterasu—forced Obito Uchiha to use Izanagi to save his life.
Before Black Zetsu, who was standing next to Obito Uchiha, could speak, White Zetsu had already started shouting, "What to do, what to do? Little Obito is injured, what should we do?" As he spoke, he paced back and forth beside him.
Black Zetsu, also annoyed by White Zetsu, snapped, "Shut up! Take Obito back to the base first. He's suffered a mental injury this time, and there's no other good way to heal him. We can only let him recover slowly. Take him to the Gedo Mazo first. Since Madara Uchiha was able to prolong his life through the Gedo Mazo, I believe it can also heal Obito's injuries."
At this moment, Obito Uchiha, although not yet unconscious, was also suffering from a splitting headache and was about to give up. Hearing Black Zetsu's words, he struggled to utter, "Quick, take me there."
After hearing what Black Zetsu and Obito Uchiha said, White Zetsu had no other good ideas. Although he was usually unreliable, he knew the seriousness of the matter. So he took Obito Uchiha and activated the Mayfly Technique, heading towards the former base where the Gedo Mazo was hidden.
This attempt to test Uchiha Kakuzan was a complete failure. However, in the minds of Black Zetsu and Uchiha Obito, Uchiha Kakuzan's danger level was raised to the highest. After all, someone who could render a Kage-level powerhouse like Uchiha Obito powerless with just one glance was clearly not an easy opponent.
Just as White Zetsu was taking Obito Uchiha to heal his injuries, Uchiha Kakuzan also brought Mikoto and Sasuke out of the dimension. After all, the Uchiha clan still needed his care, and Sasuke was still asleep in the dimension. If he woke up and saw that he had come to this unfamiliar dimension, he might overthink it or spread the word. Therefore, in order to avoid any trouble, Uchiha Kakuzan brought Mikoto and Sasuke out of the dimension early on.
Chapter 112 Terrible Combat Skills
Chapter 112 Terrible Combat Skills
After Obito Uchiha's invasion, Uchiha Kakuzan became more confident. He never expected that Obito Uchiha, whom he considered a major threat, would be defeated so easily.
However, although Uchiha Kakuzan had a better understanding of his own strength and Obito's strength after this incident, he didn't become careless. After all, this test had definitely made him a thorn in the side of Obito and Black Zetsu, someone they wanted to eliminate as soon as possible. Moreover, there was another troublesome figure in the Akatsuki organization—Nagato, the possessor of the Rinnegan. Although Nagato didn't obey Obito and his group's orders, he could still be influenced.
Therefore, Uchiha Kakuzan knew that his current strength was not yet sufficient to overwhelm his enemies. When Nagato came to his door, although he would not be completely overwhelmed and defeated by Nagato, Nagato's existence was indeed a threat to him.
Since his strength was insufficient, he would strive to improve it. The reason why Uchiha Kagami didn't wander off and stayed in Konoha was to wait for Uzumaki Karin to recover so that he could replicate the Uzumaki clan's bloodline.
Furthermore, as a distant relative of the Senju clan, the Uzumaki clan should also originate from the lineage of the Sage of Six Paths, with their bloodline descended from Ashura's Sage Body.
This explains why Ashura was reincarnated into Naruto Uzumaki in this life. Indra, from the neighboring clan, was reincarnated in the Uchiha clan, while Ashura could be reincarnated in both the Senju and Uzumaki clans. This is because the Uzumaki and Senju clans share the same bloodline as Ashura.
Therefore, Uchiha Kakuyama speculated that if he copied the bloodline and physique of the Uzumaki clan, it was very likely that he could merge with the incomplete Sage Body and Wood Release in his body to further complete the Sage Body.
This is why Uchiha Kakuzan is so cautious and expectant about fusing with the Uzumaki clan's bloodline.
······
The next day, the Uchiha clan members acted as usual, completely unaware that an uninvited guest had arrived the day before, intending to wipe out the Uchiha clan, and even less aware that their vice-clan leader had once again protected the Uchiha clan.
After all, yesterday's commotion was too small, and none of the Uchiha clan's Kage-level shinobi were in the clan's territory. In addition, the surveillance by Konoha's Anbu and Root had been lifted, so only a handful of people knew about what happened yesterday.
However, Uchiha Kakuzan did not intend to let the Uchiha clan members know about these things. After all, the Uchiha clan now completely belonged to him, Uchiha Kakuzan. He felt that since he had already taken on the title of vice clan leader and these clan members listened to him, protecting them was his duty.
Now, the most important thing for Uchiha Kakuzan is that Uzumaki Karin's body should have almost recovered. After all, she is a direct descendant of the Uzumaki clan, so her recovery time is fast. Moreover, Uchiha Kakuzan only copied their bloodline, so it will not have any adverse effects on them.
This means that Uchiha Kakuyama can now replicate the Uzumaki clan's bloodline. After obtaining the Uzumaki clan's bloodline, it is expected that Uchiha Kakuyama's strength will increase further.
It's just unknown whether he can rely on this fusion of bloodlines and physiques to break through to the Super Kage level, reaching the strength of Madara Uchiha and Hashirama Senju, and truly stand at the very top of the ninja world.
Actually, this is because Uchiha Kazuyama's strength has improved too quickly recently, and his combat awareness and instincts can't keep up. Otherwise, when Uchiha Kazuyama's Mangekyou Sharingan was upgraded to the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan, he would already be at the Kage level.
Madara Uchiha is Madara Uchiha because his fighting desire and instincts are top-notch, and he can unleash 200% of all his fighting skills.
In contrast, there is the pitiful, thousand-year-old otaku, Lady Kaguya Otsutsuki.
As a woman who has been a homebody for a thousand years, her life level, chakra reserves, and various skills are all very high-level.
However, Kaguya Otsutsuki had never fought anyone before. Even when she did fight, the opponents were all very weak and were easily crushed by her. She had absolutely no combat experience.
Moreover, after being imprisoned for a thousand years, he seemed to be in a daze, let alone able to fight others. In the end, he was sealed away by Naruto and Sasuke, who had barely reached the Six Paths level.
As for Uchiha Kakuzan's combat skills, due to his innate talent and the fact that his recent improvement has been too rapid, he has never been able to keep up with his own development. Let alone perform at an extraordinary level like Uchiha Madara, Uchiha Kakuzan should be secretly happy if he can use 80% or 90% of his abilities.
There is no other way to improve combat skills than to fight, learn, improve, and fight again until you can hone your skills to the highest level.
As for Uchiha Kakuzan now, finding an opponent is difficult enough, let alone having to fight constantly. Therefore, Uchiha Kakuzan can only use his cheat ability to continuously accumulate combat power. When your overall combat power is high, as long as your combat skills are not particularly bad, you can directly crush and kill enemies who are inferior to you.
This is also why Uchiha Kakuzan did not insist on keeping Uchiha Obito alive. If he had kept Obito alive, then whoever resurrected Uchiha Madara later, and whoever Madara did not resurrect, he would have copied whose eye techniques and bloodlines.
It's important to understand that Madara Uchiha was an ultimate gift to Uchiha Kakuzan. Madara not only possessed the Rinnegan, which surpassed the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan, but his Rinnegan was also original. The eye techniques that Kakuzan could obtain from him were far more powerful than those he received from Nagato.
Moreover, the resurrected Madara Uchiha also possessed Hashirama Senju's Wood Release Kekkei Genkai. The Wood Release he obtained was the same as Hashirama Senju's, not the incomplete version like Yamato's.
This is why Black Zetsu secretly ripped out Madara Uchiha's heart; otherwise, it would have been impossible for Black Zetsu to defeat Madara.
Therefore, Uchiha Kakuzan did not kill Uchiha Obito, only using Tsukuyomi. Moreover, he did not use any other means to stop them when they escaped. Otherwise, it is uncertain whether Uchiha Obito could have escaped.
Chapter 113 Preparations for Copying
Chapter 113 Preparations for Copying
Uchiha Kakuzan has now been completely exposed. Although Black Zetsu and Uchiha Obito haven't figured out his true strength and trump cards yet, it doesn't stop Uchiha Kakuzan from becoming their biggest enemy.
Therefore, given the uncertainty of whether Nagato would be fooled into fighting Uchiha Kakuyama, improving themselves became Uchiha Kakuyama's top priority.
……
After settling Mikoto and Sasuke in, Uchiha Kakuzan stayed behind. Although he knew that Uchiha Obito would not come back, he couldn't bear to see Mikoto alone in fear, so he stayed with her for the night.
After enjoying another hearty breakfast at Mikoto's house, Uchiha Okayama finally took his leave.
After leaving Mikoto's house, Uchiha Kakuzan went straight to the Hokage Building because he needed to copy Naruto's Uzumaki clan bloodline today.
As the Nine-Tails' Jinchuriki, Naruto Uzumaki was constantly under the covert surveillance and protection of the Third Hokage's men. Moreover, Uchiha Kakuzan also felt this was necessary, so he did not have the Third Hokage remove the men monitoring Naruto.
Now, he needs to take Karin and her daughter, along with Naruto, to a secluded place. To avoid unnecessary conflict, he needs to first speak with the Third Hokage and ask him to temporarily remove the people monitoring Naruto.
The meeting with the Third Hokage went smoothly, but the Third Hokage fell silent when he heard Uchiha Kakuzan's request.
The Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, silently smoked. Because Uchiha Kakuzan hadn't modified the Kotoamatsukami technique much when using it on him, the Third Hokage had a great deal of autonomy.
However, the Third Hokage knew that he could not refuse Uchiha Kakuzan's request. But Naruto was the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, and Uchiha Kakuzan, who possessed the Mangekyou Sharingan, was going to find Naruto, which made the Third Hokage, who always put the safety of the village first, very worried.
As expected, Uchiha Kakuzan made a mistake and messed things up, which brought great misfortune to the people of Konoha.
Uchiha Kakuyama also noticed the Third Hokage's concerns and stated the reasons he had prepared beforehand:
"Don't worry, I'm just studying the sealing techniques on the Jinchuriki. I've been researching sealing techniques lately. When it comes to sealing techniques, the Uzumaki clan has always been the most powerful. The sealing techniques on Naruto can be said to be a culmination of the sealing techniques of the Uzumaki clan and the Fourth Hokage. I'm just studying them and I don't think I'll open them without permission."
After hearing Uchiha Kakuzan's words, the Third Hokage took another drag of his cigarette, nodded silently, and knew that even if he objected, he couldn't refuse Uchiha Kakuzan's request.
Moreover, Uchiha Kakuzan also told him the reason: if he disagreed again and angered Uchiha Kakuzan, then even if he was unwilling, he would have to carry out Uchiha Kakuzan's request.
However, after issuing the revocation order, the Third Hokage still made a request to Uchiha Kakuzan:
"Kyuu-kun, please be careful when you are studying the seal on Naruto. Don't let Naruto get hurt. After all, he is the child left behind by Minato and Kushina."
Uchiha Kakuzan received the transfer order and, upon hearing the Third Hokage's request, waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. Besides, even if the Jinchuriki really goes berserk, with my current strength, I can suppress him in no time."
After finishing his conversation with the Third Hokage, Uchiha Kakuyama ignored the Third Hokage's reaction, waved goodbye, and jumped out of the window, heading towards Naruto's direction.
Right now, Uchiha Kakuzan's most important task is to obtain the Uzumaki clan's bloodline. Everything else is trivial. If it weren't for his aversion to trouble and the fact that he had to fight the ninjas monitoring Naruto and disrupt the village's order, Uchiha Kakuzan wouldn't even bother to come and see the Third Hokage.
……
If you ask Naruto Uzumaki what his happiest moment is, he can answer without hesitation that it's the days he's spent these past few days.
For Naruto, his previous life was one of darkness, oppression, pain, confusion, and helplessness.
So, since Aunt Xiangling entered his life some time ago, his life has been filled with sunshine, warmth, and Aunt Xiangling's love for him.
Originally, as a member of the same Uzumaki clan, Naruto naturally felt a strong liking for Kaoru and her mother. However, through their later interactions, Naruto discovered that Kaoru treated him almost like her own child.
They washed his clothes, bought him new clothes, tidied his room, and called him over to eat after cooking. The food was nutritious and varied, and it was the first time Naruto had ever received such treatment since he was a child.
Moreover, as the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, Naruto has very keen senses. He was able to feel the kindness and closeness that Aunt Xiangling showed him.
So, Naruto Uzumaki felt like he was dreaming these past few days. He not only gained a kind aunt who treated him like a son, but also a friendly younger sister who, despite being shy and timid, showed him a great deal of kindness.
This morning, Naruto Uzumaki got up very early again. After getting up and quickly tidying himself up, he happily went to Aunt Xiangling's house next door.
Although his aunt was very good to him, Naruto couldn't be lazy. So, every day Naruto would get up early and help his aunt, Xiangling, make breakfast. His aunt had tried to persuade him many times to sleep in, but he wouldn't listen.
Naruto Uzumaki wanted to do everything in his power to hold onto this hard-won happiness.
Just as Naruto and his two companions finished breakfast, Uchiha Kakuyama, who had received a transfer order from the Third Hokage, finally arrived.
Uchiha Kakuzan didn't go into the house first. Instead, relying on his keen senses, he found the ANBU members who had been monitoring Naruto Uzumaki. Without saying a word, he handed them the transfer order signed by the Third Hokage.
After receiving the order and verifying its authenticity, the ANBU personnel left without saying a word, bowed to Uchiha Okayama, and departed immediately.
Uchiha Kakuyama looked around and realized that only Naruto Uzumaki and his two companions lived on this rooftop, so he nodded involuntarily.
It seems I don't need to look for another place. Setting up a simple barrier should be enough to ensure that the copying process won't be disturbed.
After surveying his surroundings, Uchiha Kakuyama felt completely at ease and went to the house of Uzumaki Kaoru and her daughter, politely knocking on the door.
Chapter 114 Karin and her daughter, Naruto
Chapter 114 Karin and her daughter, Naruto
Uchiha Kakuyama glanced around and noticed that only Naruto and his two companions lived on the top floor of the building. He nodded in approval, realizing that he didn't need to look for another place and could stay right there.
Just then, Uzumaki Karin, who had heard the knocking, opened the door and saw Uchiha Kazuyama standing there. She couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "Mr. Kazuyama, what brings you to my house? This is such a pleasant surprise! Please come in."
