Naruto: Mikoto and Tsunade, don't let either of them go.

"The cost is manageable; I can still afford it. However, this eye technique that can revive others has a very long cooldown. I'm not entirely sure how long it will take, but based on my experience, it's at least ten years."

Upon hearing Qiu Shanjun's words, Tsunade's eyes grew even more dangerous. She looked at him and asked in a stern tone:

"Then, Qiushan-kun, explain to me why Uzumaki Kushina was chosen for such an important resurrection spot. What are you up to? If it were another Sunagakure ninja like Pakura who possesses the Scorch Release, it would be understandable."

After all, the power of the Scorching Release is indeed quite good. After reviving Pakura, not only can we copy her bloodline limit, but we can also gain another Kage-level subordinate.

"But what about Kushina Uzumaki? If we're talking about the Uzumaki clan's bloodline, Konoha Village has plenty, and you've already copied it, haven't you?"

In response to Tsunade's questioning, Qiu Shan-jun had already prepared a reason.

He sat down on the chair next to him, held Tsunade on his lap, and argued:

"The reason I resurrected Kushina was for Naruto's sake. Naruto will become the Chosen One in the future, and I'm doing this to build a good relationship between us."

Furthermore, I suspect that Kushina, as a descendant of the Uzumaki clan, should possess many of the clan's closely guarded sealing techniques. Once I revive her, I can learn them myself.

But to everyone's surprise, Tsunade wasn't buying it at all.

Tsunade rolled her eyes and muttered:

"I know you too well. You're trying to fool me. Fine, Kushina is a powerful person with sealing techniques, so I'll let you go this time."

Before Uchiha Kagami could speak, Shizune, who had been watching the show from the sidelines, couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Clearly, Shizune had known all along that Lady Tsunade would pull this stunt; she had been eagerly anticipating this moment.

Uchiha Kakuzan also realized that Tsunade was just giving him a warning and didn't really blame him.

Realizing this, Qiu Shanjun quickly pulled Tsunade, who was about to get up, back into his arms and left wet drool marks on her face.

This earned Tsunade a moment of disgust.

After Qiushan-jun retrieved the necessary items for the Impure World Reincarnation from Shizune, he asked Tsunade:

"Tsunade, is there anyone else you urgently need me to revive? If so, please tell me, otherwise, who knows when the next opportunity will come."

Hearing Qiu Shan-jun's words, Tsunade felt a warmth in her heart, rested her head on Qiu Shan-jun's chest, and said gently:

"I'm so happy that I was able to revive Nawaki. He's my younger brother. Reviving him has finally resolved a long-standing issue for me. This also means that the Senju clan has a successor."

Although I don't know how many people you can resurrect at a time, I do know that the fewer people you resurrect, the less burden you will bear, and the less price you will have to pay.

In this world, Qiu Shanjun is the person I care about most. How could I risk the life of the person I love most to resurrect those who are relatively unimportant to me? Doing so would be putting the cart before the horse.

Uchiha Kakuzan didn't expect Tsunade to say such a thing. However, if he said anything too touching at this time, it would make him seem too much like a daughter.

Uchiha Kakuyama held Tsunade's slender waist tightly, and then they discussed the timing, location, and aftermath of the operation.

After all, being able to revive someone is already incredibly powerful, so we still need to handle the aftermath properly, otherwise we might be targeted by the entire ninja world.

Moreover, Uchiha Kakuzan was also mentally prepared to face the Sage of Six Paths.

It is known that the Pure Land was created by the Sage of Six Paths, who himself did not completely die, but instead roams the entire ninja world and space-time rifts in the form of chakra.

It doesn't matter if one is reborn through the Impure Land, after all, the person who is reborn through the Impure Land is just like a tenant, and he will return to the Pure Land sooner or later.

The Reincarnation Technique is a different concept; it involves direct resurrection and has nothing to do with the Pure Land.

As the creator of the Pure Land, the Sage of Six Paths has countless connections to it. Moreover, since he was able to bestow power upon Sasuke and Naruto, granting them Six Paths-level combat strength,

How could Uchiha Kakuzan possibly believe that the Sage of Six Paths would have no fighting ability?

Since he was able to grant him Six Paths-level combat power, Uchiha Kakuzan suspected that the Sage of Six Paths himself must have already surpassed the Six Paths level and reached an unheard-of realm.

Chapter 346 Tension and History

Chapter 346 Tension and History

An unnamed desert island overseas

It was already late at night, but Uchiha Kakuzan had brought Tsunade and the others to this deserted island.

Originally, this was a deserted island, devoid of any people, not even large animals.

In the center of this deserted island, Qiu Shanjun has used Earth Release and Wood Release techniques to level the ground and build some simple structures for easy use.

The most eye-catching feature is a wooden platform that occupies the central position.

Around the platform, four giant torches burned fiercely, illuminating the surrounding environment.

The most conspicuous thing was the four white humanoid creatures on the platform, who were still thrashing around wildly even though they were completely bound.

Looking at the four White Zetsu who had been imprisoned for a long time but were still full of energy, Uchiha Kakuzan was also somewhat amazed by the amazing structure of the White Zetsu.

You should know that ever since Obito Uchiha was driven to the brink of collapse by him on Uzushima Island and released a large number of White Zetsu as cannon fodder, he has not fed them anything.

It was only after he was confined to his divine space, a space unsuitable for long-term residence, that he fell into a coma.

And just this time, Qiu Shanjun had only released them a short while ago, but they were already back to being lively and energetic.

Tsunade, her eyes gleaming, looked at the White Zetsu thrashing about on the wooden platform, and said to Qiu Shan-jun with a hint of envy:

"Kiu-san, just give me a few of these. Trust me, if I had these, my medical ninjutsu would reach a new level."

Upon hearing Tsunade's words, Uchiha Kakuyama belatedly realized what had happened.

This White Zetsu is a treasure; you could say its entire body is valuable.

Not only is it full of vibrant life force, but all its parts and organs are also of high quality. If someone is missing something or an organ, they can simply transplant one from a White Zetsu without any rejection and it will be a perfect match for their body.

Even if all your organs have been destroyed, you can recover without any aftereffects if you merge with a White Zetsu. The most representative example of this is Obito Uchiha.

When Madara Uchiha brought Obito back from the battlefield, Obito had already been crushed by the collapsed boulders. If Madara Uchiha hadn't used White Zetsu to fuse with Obito, Obito would have been dead long ago.

Moreover, Obito actually benefited from the misfortune. Not only did his body recover, but he also gained the ability of Wood Release. Furthermore, the body that had fused with White Zetsu was able to alleviate the aftereffects of his Mangekyou Sharingan. This allowed Obito to use his Mangekyou Sharingan without restraint, even though it did not evolve into the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan. Otherwise, Obito would not have been so difficult to deal with; he would have gone blind long ago.

As an excellent medical ninja, Tsunade had already keenly noticed the difference in this White Zetsu, which is why she asked Qiushan-jun for it.

Seeing that Qiu Shan Jun had fallen silent, Tsunade's eyes flashed with a hint of urgency. She then slightly raised her toes and pressed her alluring red lips against Qiu Shan Jun's mouth.

Tsunade's initiative immediately brought Qiu Shanjun back from his reverie. Of course, Qiu Shanjun wouldn't be polite to this offer of benefits, and immediately embraced Tsunade's delicate body in a passionate response. Their interaction caused Shizune, who was standing nearby, to blush and quietly move away while holding her pig.

When Qiu Shanjun and Tsunade ran out of breath, Tsunade collapsed in Qiu Shanjun's arms, panting, her face flushed, and her eyes shimmering as if they were about to drip water.

After calming her disordered breathing, Tsunade looked at Qiushan-jun with a hint of ingratiation and said, "Qiushan-jun, could you give me a White Zetsu? Just one or two would be fine."

Uchiha Kakuyama looked at Tsunade and said in surprise:

"Sure? When did I say no? I have hundreds of them stored in my Divine Might Space. I don't care about them."

When Tsunade heard what Qiushan-jun said, she almost gritted her teeth. She thought that even Qiushan-jun didn't have many of these magical creatures, so she used her beauty trap, which she hadn't used in a long time.

A glint of fire flashed in Tsunade's eyes as she gritted her teeth and said to Qiu Shanjun:

"Since you have so many, why did you hesitate when I asked you for some earlier?"

A hint of a smile flashed deep in Uchiha Kakuzan's eyes as he feigned sudden realization and said:

"Just now? I was thinking about something else, that's why I didn't respond to you for a moment."

When Tsunade heard what Qiu Shanjun said, she was smart enough to know that she had been tricked by him. However, given her close relationship with Qiu Shanjun, it wasn't a huge loss. She could only blame herself for being a little too impulsive.

Tsunade reached out a slender hand, slipped it to Qiu Shanjun's waist, grabbed a piece of soft flesh, and spun it around 360 degrees, causing Qiu Shanjun to gasp and wince in pain. It seems that even Qiu Shanjun, with his sage-like physique, is not immune to this kind of injury.

Seeing this, Tsunade withdrew her finger with satisfaction, gently kissed Qiushan-jun on the cheek, and said:

"Get back to work, I'll deal with you when we get back."

Qiu Shan-jun rubbed the soft flesh around his waist, somewhat speechless. If he hadn't been afraid that Tsunade would really get angry, he would have used his Lightning Release Armor earlier. In that case, even Tsunade, who was known for her immense strength, would have had a hard time hurting him.

Uchiha Kakuyama looked up at the night sky and, seeing that it was already quite late, decided not to delay any longer and went to the wooden platform to begin preparations.

The people standing next to the wooden platform also subconsciously held their breath.

Those who came here with Qiu Shanjun are all people he trusts most.

These people were also well aware of Qiu Shanjun's purpose this time.

This is something that can bring the dead back to life; apart from being passed down in ancient legends, no one has ever heard of it.

Moreover, before the establishment of Konoha Village, the entire ninja world was dominated by clans fighting their own battles. In that chaotic era, it was difficult for most people to even survive, let alone leave any historical records.

It is precisely because of their inherent superior talents that the Uchiha and Senju clans have been able to endure for so long.

Moreover, even with such a long history and such special bloodline of the two clans, there is no record of any real resurrection. The fact that they can record the Rinnegan of the Sage of Six Paths is already worthy of this family history.

Therefore, anyone would get nervous when faced with such a legendary event that is about to happen.

Moreover, the one who made this history was their closest person—Uchiha Okayama.

Chapter 347 The Resurrection of the Dead

Chapter 347 The Resurrection of the Dead

Standing on the platform, Uchiha Kakuyama looked at the four White Zetsu who were still thrashing about in front of him, took a deep breath, mobilized the chakra in his body, formed hand seals, and pressed his palms together on the platform.

"Spirit Summoning Technique - Impure World Reincarnation Technique"

As Uchiha Kakuzan moved, starting from his palm, a formation composed of various talismans quickly formed, and at the end of the formation were the four White Zetsu who were bound.

As the formation took shape, four deep blue souls, invisible to ordinary people and resembling burning flames, were summoned from the Pure Land and appeared directly above the four sacrifices.

Then, amidst wails of agony, the four souls entered the body of the sacrifice.

Then, as if created out of thin air, fragments moved without wind, rushing onto the bodies of the four sacrificial offerings.

In the blink of an eye, four figures of different shapes appeared on the platform.

However, anyone with eyes could see from these dusty bodies and cracked faces that these people were very different from ordinary people.

Of course, that's why these people all had their eyes closed; otherwise, you could easily tell from their gray eyes that they were all dead.

After everything calmed down, Uchiha Kakuyama tilted his head slightly, looking at the four people who had been resurrected by Edo Tensei, seemingly lost in thought.

Tsunade, who had been holding her breath outside the platform, saw that Qiu Shan-jun made no further moves and couldn't help but jump onto the platform, asking somewhat cautiously:

"Qiu Shan Jun, have you finished? Why haven't they made a move?"

Looking at the four people with their eyes closed, Uchiha Kakuyama shrugged and said:

"Of course it's because I didn't wake them up, and besides, they're still in the Edo Tensei stage. I was just about to tell you that."

"Tsunade, are you going to catch up with Nawaki first, or just revive him directly?"

Tsunade understood what Qiushan-kun meant. Among the resurrected individuals, there was no need to consult the opinions of anyone except Nawaki.

Tsunade looked at the shortest figure among the four, and saw a face that felt so familiar to her. When she saw Nawaki, who had been resurrected through Edo Tensei, standing there quietly, she could almost hear his voice calling her sister. This filled Tsunade's heart with a mix of complex emotions.

Tsunade glanced at Nawaki again, gritted her teeth, turned away, and stopped looking at the platform. Her body trembled slightly as she said:

"Qiu Shan Jun, there's no need to ask for his opinion anymore. Just revive him. If he has any objections, I will take full responsibility."

Looking at the somewhat dejected Tsunade, Uchiha Kakuyama paused for a moment, then nodded and said:

"Understood, Tsunade-nee."

After finishing speaking, Qiu Shan-jun didn't waste any more words. Once Tsunade had walked a little further away, Uchiha Qiu Shan activated his Rinnegan. His golden-purple Rinnegan stared intently at the four figures on the platform, his hands forming the "巳" (snake) hand seal.

Immediately afterwards, Qiu Shanjun mobilized all the chakra in his body and poured it into his Rinnegan.

"Heretical Path - The Art of Reincarnation and Heavenly Life".

Uchiha Kakuzan's voice was indifferent yet filled the entire space, giving people an urge to submit upon hearing it.

Just as Uchiha Okayama was forming hand seals and activating the Rinnegan to use the Rinne Rebirth Technique, an immense power, unnoticed by anyone, descended upon the island and continuously flowed into the four figures on the platform.

As this immense power was injected, large amounts of white smoke immediately rose from the bodies of the four people, resembling countless streams of water vapor.

At this moment, Uchiha Kakuyama felt very uncomfortable.

The eye power in the Rinnegan was rapidly draining away, and a large portion of the chakra and the once vibrant body were lost, along with a significant amount of life force.

Just as Uchiha Kakuzan felt a surge of fear, sensing that he was about to lose something very important, he suddenly felt the loss within his body abruptly stop.

Uchiha Kakuyama's wildly beating heart gradually calmed down. He immediately opened the system panel, which he hadn't opened in a long time, and a new system notification had just been updated.

"The system has detected that the host is using the ultimate Rinnegan technique—Outer Path—Rinne Rebirth Technique. The host will pay the price with their life. The system will reduce the cost of using the Rinnegan by extracting a portion of the host's life force as the cost, thus fulfilling the conditions for casting the Rinne Rebirth Technique."

Upon seeing this system notification, Uchiha Kakuyama finally relaxed. It seemed that the system was reliable after all, as it could reduce the conditions for using the Rinne Rebirth Technique.

Although it reduced some of his physical vitality, it was nothing to Qiu Shanjun. You see, with his immortal body, Qiu Shanjun could replenish his lost vitality automatically in just a few days.

Now that we've used the external path of the Rinnegan—the Samsara of Heavenly Life Technique—we can use the system to check the cooldown time of this ultimate skill and how to reduce it.

Uchiha Kakuyama looked up at the four people still surrounded by thick smoke, and temporarily gave up the urge to check. There was no rush; he should deal with the situation first.

After a while, the white smoke around the four people decreased, making it clear to those around them that the four people had undergone a dramatic transformation.
