Chapter 237 The Kingdom of Rain

Chapter 237 The Land of Rain

After Uchiha Kakuzan brought Kurenai Yuhi out of Mikoto's house, he took her home.

Although Kurenai Yuhi is now considered a Kage-level powerhouse, her genjutsu is only impressive; her physical strength and chakra reserves are relatively ordinary.

Furthermore, Kurenai Yuhi does not possess a bloodline limit, which restricts her future development.

However, it didn't matter to Uchiha Kakuzan; he was determined to protect Kurenai. As for Kurenai, she was already secretly pleased that she had become a Kage-level shinobi through a series of coincidences.

Moreover, she didn't have a strong desire for power; what she wanted most in the future was to quietly be a wife and mother.

As Uchiha Kakuyama watched Kurenai Yuhi enter the house, a bearded man suddenly came to mind.

How old is this guy? He's still going through a rebellious phase. He left Konoha because he had a conflict with his father, the Third Hokage, and went to be one of the Twelve Guardian Ninja under the Daimyo.

Instead of being the Crown Prince of Konoha, he chose to become someone else's guard and lackey; he certainly doesn't have the brains to do that.

In the end, he probably realized what was going on and came back all by himself.

He managed to become a Jonin in Konoha, but his strength was still lacking, and he ultimately met a tragic end.

It's important to know that after his return, the Third Hokage's arrangements were entirely paving the way for his future development.

In the ninja world, besides blood ties, what relationship is the most reliable? Of course, it's the master-disciple relationship.

When Sarutobi Asuma returned, the Third Hokage entrusted him with the next generation of the strongest Hokage combination, Ino-Shika-Cho, making him his apprentice.

If he were to vie for the Hokage position in the future, the Ino-Shika-Cho clan would be a powerful ally. Even if he didn't win the Hokage position, with the support of the next generation of the Ino-Shika-Cho clan heirs, he could still rise to a high-ranking position in Konoha.

Furthermore, the already formidable Yuan Fei clan, if not for Orochimaru's sudden Konoha Crush plan, which resulted in the death of the Third Hokage,

Asuma, who had just returned to the village, didn't have much prestige, and his strength was negligible, making it impossible for him to inherit his father's position as Hokage. Moreover, Danzo was watching him closely, and the Hokage position wasn't one that just anyone could take.

It was only because the Third Hokage and Asuma both died that Kakashi became the Sixth Hokage.

To be honest, Sarutobi Asuma's strength is really quite poor. In Konoha, there are plenty of people stronger than him. Moreover, not only is his strength lacking, but his intelligence is also quite lacking. The only thing he has to offer is the title of the Hokage's son.

Uchiha Kakuzan smiled and shook his head, banishing that insignificant figure from his mind. If he likes to play outside, let him play outside. When he comes back, he'll probably find that the world has changed.

After Uchiha Kakuyama finished speaking to Tsunade, he left. Before leaving, he pinched Shizune's fair face. Amid Tsunade's impatient shooing and Shizune's blushing and lowered head, he smiled and left the Hokage Building.

When there's nothing to do, one can listen to music in a brothel.

Having nothing else to do, Uchiha Kakuzan used the spatial imprint he left at the site of his battle with Pain's Six Paths to directly arrive in this perpetually rainy country.

Because Uchiha Kakuzan stayed here and built a house using Wood Release, he didn't get wet this time.

Uchiha Kakuzan stood by the second-floor window, quietly admiring the rain scene outside. Suddenly, he felt a little bored, as if he had just remembered something. Then, as if he had remembered something, he turned around and used Takamagahara to leave.

About half an hour later, Uchiha Kakuyama returned to the place, accompanied by his two maids, Uchiha Izumi and Uchiha Yo.

Moreover, the two maids were carrying two large food boxes. This was not at Uchiha Kakuyama's request, but rather because the two maids volunteered to prepare them after learning that Kakuyama-kun was going to take them to enjoy the rainy scenery.

The two little maids had been in the Takamagahara space for a while and were getting a bit bored. Today, Lord Qiushan suddenly came and wanted to take them out to enjoy the rain, which made the two little girls very happy.

Amidst the patter of rain, the two young maids busied themselves, and in no time, they had prepared tea and snacks, as well as brewed steaming hot tea for Qiu Shanjun to enjoy.

On a rainy day like this, it's perfect to sit quietly by the window, sip a cup of hot tea, and admire the world shrouded in mist and rain, giving you a sense of being detached from the world.

After finishing their chores, the two little girls sat down on either side of Qiu Shanjun, keeping him company as they looked at the scenery outside.

The two little girls had lived with Uchiha Kakuyama for a long time, so they knew his temper and that he didn't like standing there waiting for them while he ate.

So when there were no outsiders around, the two maids would eat with Qiu Shanjun after they finished cooking. In that case, they could be considered a family, not just a maid.

After the group had enjoyed the rainy scenery for a while, Uchiha Izumi, unable to contain her curiosity, asked, "Lord Okiyama, where are we? Are we still in the Land of Fire?"

Hearing Uchiha Izumi's question, Uchiha Ye, who was standing nearby, also looked at Qiu Shan-jun.

These two little girls have hardly ever left the Land of Fire, let alone Konoha Village, so they naturally yearn for everything outside.

Upon hearing Izumi's question, Uchiha Kakuyama put down his teacup and shook his head, saying, "We are no longer in the Land of Fire, but in a small country called the Land of Rain."

Upon hearing what Qiushan-kun said, Uchiha Ye, who was a good student, exclaimed, "I know about the Land of Rain. My teachers at school said that it was one of the famous battlefields during the wars in the past."

Uchiha Kagami glanced at Uchiha Ye in surprise, not expecting her to know anything. He nodded and said, "Yes, the Land of Rain used to be a famous battlefield. The three legendary Sannin of Konoha made their names here."

This is also the tragedy of small countries caught in the middle of large powers; in times of peace, they serve as a buffer zone against friction between major powers.

In the event of war, in order to minimize the impact on their own national livelihoods, major powers will invariably choose to place the battlefield on the territories of these smaller nations.

Chapter 238 Resurrection and Legend

Chapter 238 Resurrection and Legend

Upon hearing Uchiha Kazuyama's words, Uchiha Ye fell silent, while the more sentimental Uchiha Izumi covered her lips and murmured, "Aren't those commoners living here very pitiful?"

Uchiha Kakuzan shook his head upon hearing her words, saying, "There's nothing we can do about it. Whenever war breaks out, someone will always suffer. Rather than let the civilians of our own country suffer, it's better to let the civilians of other countries suffer."

Seeing that the two little girls had fallen silent, Uchiha Kakuyama clapped his hands and said with a smile, "Alright, we finally got to come out and have some fun today, so cheer up. We can't stop the war, so we can only do our best to protect ourselves and the people most important to us."

Fortunately, the two girls weren't the type to worry about the country and its people. They didn't remain silent for long. After Uchiha Kakuyama changed the subject, they started chatting excitedly about the novel scenery around them.

Uchiha Kakuzan's main purpose in coming to the Land of Rain was to make contact with Konan and see if he could save her from her tragic fate.

As for Nagato's life, Uchiha Kuzan didn't care. His personality and ideals were basically twisted. When he encountered his teacher Jiraiya, he killed him without saying a word. It's hard to say whether he was pathetic or the world was pathetic.

Secondly, he wanted to take these two little girls out for a trip. They were at the prime of their youth, and it wasn't good for them to stay in the space all day. Although Takamagahara Island was big enough, these two little girls didn't dare to go too far because they wanted to serve him promptly. He was also busy cultivating and didn't have time to take them around to play.

After Xiao Nan comforted the somewhat depressed Nagato, it was already evening. Xiao Nan walked out of the tall building, glanced back, then spread her paper wings and flew away, disappearing into the rain.

Although the chances of Yahiko being resurrected are slim, Konan doesn't want to give up this tiny hope. After all, this newly emerged Uchiha clan leader is far too mysterious; despite not being very old, he seems to know everything about their affairs.

After Yahiko's death, she and Nagato reorganized the Akatsuki organization, since most of the original like-minded members had sacrificed themselves in that incident.

Moreover, after reorganizing the organization, their organizational creed changed, and they could be said to have turned to the dark side. Even the individuals themselves are kept secret, and information about them is also kept secret. Even their leader is Pain, so the fact that the Uchiha clan head knew their information clearly surprised her greatly.

At least in Konan's opinion, this Uchiha clan leader was much more reliable than the man who called himself Uchiha Madara. That man always seemed to be using them, plotting something.

When Xiao Nan braved the rain, spread her wings, and flew back to the original battlefield, it was already completely dark.

Xiao Nan flew around the area and finally found a house emitting light at the edge of the battlefield. She remembered very clearly that this house was definitely not there during the day.

However, only such an unusual event could be related to the head of the Uchiha clan.

Xiao Nan hesitated for a moment, then, without using her paper clone, she went directly towards the house.

Just as Xiao Nan approached the house, the previously closed door opened at the opportune moment, revealing a maid standing behind it.

This maid was not old, but her clothes and dignified demeanor indicated that she came from an extraordinary background.

Uchiha Izumi nodded to Konan, gestured for her to proceed, and then led Konan upstairs.

Having made her decision, Xiao Nan didn't hesitate and followed the maid inside.

When Konan arrived at the brightly lit room on the second floor, she found that the maid who had led her there was already standing behind the Uchiha clan leader. Beside her stood another maid, dressed in the same clothes and with the same dignified demeanor, which made Konan pause in surprise.

As Konan's gaze fell upon the man sitting in the center, Uchiha Kakuzan said at the opportune moment, "Miss Konan has arrived, please have a seat."

As he spoke, he gestured for Xiao Nan to sit down.

Konan hesitated for a moment, then sat down somewhat awkwardly. At that moment, Uchiha Yoh, who was standing behind Uchiha Okayama, came over and poured her some tea.

After a somewhat reserved thank you, Xiao Nan took a sip of hot tea and felt the chill in her body dissipate a little.

However, she didn't care about any of that and directly stated her purpose:

"Clan Chief Uchiha, I've troubled you to wait so long. I just want to know if what you told me today is true?"

Hearing Konan's urgent words, Uchiha Kakuzan understood her feelings. After taking a sip of tea, he nodded to Konan, who was looking at him intently, and said:

"I'm not lying to you about this, but as you know, this kind of thing is basically a miracle. Even if I really have this ability and I help you accomplish it, are you sure you can afford the price?"

Xiao Nan frowned upon hearing Uchiha Kakuyama's words. She understood what the man in front of her meant. Indeed, to be able to revive someone, especially one who had been dead for several years, would come at a great cost, one that she might not be able to afford.

However, Konan wasn't the type to believe everything she was told. Instead, she frowned and asked, "How can you expect me to believe that you can revive Yahiko? After all, I've been in the ninja world for so many years and I've never heard of anyone being able to revive the dead. Even your famous medical ninja, Princess Tsunade, couldn't do that, could she?"

At this time, when Konan asked Uchiha Kakuyama a question, she concealed the fact that Nagato could revive the dead. This was something that could not be told to outsiders.

The two maids standing behind Uchiha Kagami looked at each other in surprise. They hadn't expected their master to be able to revive the dead, and judging from the woman's words, their master might even help her revive her friends.

Uchiha Kakuyama smiled meaningfully upon hearing Konan's words.

Chapter 239 The Price and the News

Chapter 239 The Price and the News

Upon hearing Konan's words, Uchiha Kakuzan said with a meaningful tone, "You really don't know about the news of resurrecting the dead?"

When Konan heard Uchiha Kakuyama's words, alarm bells rang in her mind. How could she not understand the meaning behind the man's words? She did know who had the ability to resurrect the dead, but how did the Uchiha clan leader know such a thing?

However, Konan had experienced countless battles. Although Uchiha Kakuzan's words shocked her, she remained outwardly calm. Instead, she frowned and said, "Uchiha clan head, what do you mean by that? If I knew another way to revive, would I risk my life to come to you because of your words?"

Seeing Konan's performance, Uchiha Kakuzan was not angry. Instead, he gently clapped his hands and praised her:

"As expected of the Akatsuki's representatives, this calm and collected demeanor is something most people could never achieve. It's no wonder that Jiraiya worked so hard to train you. Although there were some unexpected events, you are still invaluable talents."

Upon hearing Uchiha Kakuzan's words, Konan could no longer maintain her composure and exclaimed, "How do you know about our relationship with Jiraiya-sensei?"

In her words, she acknowledged what Uchiha Kakuyama had said.

Uchiha Kakuzan thought to himself, "I not only know about your relationship with Jiraiya, but I also know about your daily interactions."

However, these things would be quite shocking if spoken aloud, so Uchiha Kakuzan didn't delve deeper into them and instead changed the subject.

"It's not difficult to know whether I can revive Yahiko, because I know another way of reviving that you can trust. However, this method of reviving requires a much higher price to pay."

Konan felt a pang of regret after saying those words about Jiraiya, but she breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Uchiha Kagami didn't dwell on the matter. After all, she was different from Nagato; she still had deep feelings for Jiraiya. If their relationship with Jiraiya were exposed, it would cause him some trouble.

Konan, upon hearing Uchiha Kakuzan's words, didn't think much of it and asked, "What method?"

Uchiha Kakuyama glanced at Konan, took a sip of tea, and without explaining, pulled out an ancient scroll from his robes, casually tossed it to Uchiha Izumi standing beside him, and said casually, "Open it and read it to this Miss Konan."

After receiving the scroll, Uchiha Izumi saw the words "Scroll" on the surface and said with some difficulty, "Master, is this top-secret information of our Uchiha clan?"

Upon hearing Uchiha Izumi's words, Uchiha Kakuyama casually waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, this Konan is not an outsider, and she knows a little about what's in this scroll."

Upon hearing what Qiushan-kun said, Uchiha Izumi obediently nodded, then broke the seal on the scroll and slowly opened it.

During this process, Konan, who was slow to realize what was going on, seemed to understand what Uchiha Kakuyama meant. She nervously swallowed as she looked at the little maid who was opening the scroll.

Uchiha Izumi opened the scroll, glanced at its contents, looked at Konan before her, and then lowered her head to read aloud, word by word: "The eyes of the Sage of Six Paths, also known as the Rinnegan, possess many incredible abilities. They can see into the underworld, communicate with spirits and deities, fly without wings, distinguish truth from falsehood, recognize lies, and have the power to revive those in the underworld."

Although Izumi Uchiha's words were in a mix of classical and vernacular Chinese, Konan, who knew the functions of the Rinnegan, could clearly understand their meaning. After she finished reading them, she didn't speak or refute them, but simply sat there in silence.
