Immortality begins with the ninjas of Konoha.

Chapter 175 Uchiha's Paradoxical Thinking...

In mid-December, the reconstruction work in Konoha Village finally came to a halt, and the village was covered in snow. Many genin cheered.

The protected young people were unaware of the situation on the front lines. After finishing their tedious missions, they all volunteered to fight and demonstrate their will of fire.

After Kushina was freed from the Nine-Tails' clutches, she was no longer under supervision. Once her body was fully restored, she actively participated in "brick-moving tasks" every day.

She had wanted to try to become a Jonin leader, but when she thought of Naruto, Kushina eventually gave up the idea, as working every morning was already her limit.

Upon arriving at Konoha Hospital, Kushina felt a heavy heart seeing the increasing number of wounded patients. After completing the examination, she looked at Rin Nohara and asked in a low voice, "Rin, are the battles on the front lines becoming more frequent?"

"Something unexpected seems to have happened in the Land of Grass, and it seems to be related to Jinchuriki..."

Rin Nohara responded softly, a look of worry on her face. Kakashi had been in the Land of Grass, and she prayed every day, hoping that the war would end as soon as possible.

Seeing the girl's expression, Kushina felt a pang of guilt. A gentle smile appeared on her face as she hugged Nohara Rin and softly comforted her, "Don't worry, Kakashi is a Jonin with outstanding strength. There won't be any problems."

"Minato is there too, and he'll take care of Kakashi as well."

"Come stay at my place tonight."

Rin Nohara chuckled, her energy returning as she looked at Kushina and said with a smile, "Taking care of Naruto is hard enough; I can take care of myself!"

"Speaking of which, has Naruto's surname been decided yet?"

Upon hearing the question, Kushina immediately smiled happily. Her husband was very understanding: "Minato made the decision before he left, Naruto!"

The remaining members of the Uzumaki clan are scattered in various places. When Kushina learned that her husband planned to let their son inherit her surname, she was so moved that she cried for a long time.

Rin Nohara had heard Kakashi recount the story of the Uzumaki clan, and upon hearing the child's surname, she immediately offered her blessings.

Unbeknownst to the two, a nurse passing by also wore a thoughtful expression, while the White Zetsu within them frowned slightly: "The Jinchuriki hasn't lost his memory. What is Lord Madara suspecting?"

On the Iron Country peninsula, after lying in a coma for more than half a month, Obito Uchiha finally regained his mobility temporarily by using the ancient White Zetsu to transfer the chakra of the Gedo Mazo.

After seeing the collected information in the afternoon, Obito frowned. The Jinchuriki should have died after having their Tailed Beasts extracted, but Kushina did not die. It seems that his classmates were subjected to evil experiments again.

What puzzled Obito was why Kushina hadn't lost her memory. This was completely different from what he had expected.

"Maybe Kakashi didn't lose all his memories!"

"Should we go to the Land of Grass and ask?"

"I almost forgot, Madara-sama can't use the Mangekyou Sharingan right now, so he can't find out the truth."

""

The possessed ancient White Zetsu continued to make sarcastic remarks in its usual comical tone. Obito remained silent for a while, then suddenly said in a deep voice, "This is also part of Furukawa Osamu's plan. He must be plotting something."

"Kushina Uzumaki, Rin, and Kakashi were all his test subjects."

White Zetsu was speechless, inexplicably thinking of Madara's "Hashirama Moment." His mask suddenly transformed into tentacles, which tapped Obito's head as he loudly asked, "Does he want to revive Tobirama Senju?"

"Just like Lord Madara's Eye of the Moon Plan, the Senju clan has a similar plan."

Obito, who had been completely baffled, perked up at White Zetsu's words. A flash of inspiration struck him, and he felt that everything now made sense: "That must be it!"

"White guy, Furukawa Osamu's resurrection ninjutsu might have been left behind by Senju Tobirama, but it's not perfect yet."

"Using this technique could come at a huge cost, so he only chooses to resurrect those he is close to."

"Damn it! They must have seen the stone tablet at the Naga Shrine too. They may not be able to decipher much, but they must know about the Eye of the Moon Project."

Obito paced back and forth excitedly, the more he imagined it, the more he felt he understood the truth of the matter.

Recalling Madara Uchiha's assessment of Tobirama Senju, Obito's face turned solemn, and he muttered to himself, "Indeed, it is the will of evil!"

"This world should not be ruled by ninjas. The Senju clan wants to maintain this twisted world."

"A false peace is meaningless; the outbreak of war again is the best proof of that."

"As long as ninjas exist, pointless battles cannot be avoided. Rin should not live in this twisted world."

White Zetsu was dumbfounded. He could barely understand the "Hashirama Moment," but he found Obito Uchiha's idea of ​​being a "final ninja" extremely absurd.

"Lord Madara, I need to remind you of something."

"I've told Nagato and the others that you captured the Nine-Tails. If the plan to capture the Tailed Beasts is to be carried out in the future, you'd better prepare in advance."

'

""

Obito, who had just been so excited, was completely speechless. The thought of having to lie and deceive Nagato and Black Zetsu for the next few years gave him a headache.

The Eye of the Moon Project cannot be stopped. Obito breathed a sigh of relief, but a sliver of unspoken hope lingered in his mind: "Perhaps this illusion technique can awaken Rin's memories."

Because the Iwagakure Jinchuriki joined the battle ahead of schedule, the Uchiha clan urgently dispatched elites to support the front lines.

Not long after Fugaku Uchiha left, the atmosphere within the clan changed. The Eighth Hokage and several older members began secretly discussing a major matter: "Should we make contact with the owner of the Mangekyou Sharingan?"

Although the enemy attacked the village, they did not cause too many casualties. Secretly contacting them and asking the elders to guide the clansmen on how to awaken their Sharingan would be beneficial to the development of the Uchiha clan.

Although the medication was effective, after taking it for a long time, everyone experienced a bottleneck, and their pupil strength could no longer continue to increase.

The Uchiha members, who craved power, were anxious about this. Everyone wanted to go further. The power of Susanoo was so alluring that some of the clan members secretly agreed to the proposal.

Uchiha Shisui did not go to the front lines this time. He had to stay in the village because he was responsible for the tasks of his senior, Hokage, and clan leader.

Although he was very young, his pupil power was extremely strong with the help of the two drugs, so collecting this information was not difficult for him.

Upon learning of the outcome of the discussion, Shisui immediately notified Furukawa Osamu through the Ninja Cat. Colluding with the enemy is a serious crime!

On the western side of the Nanga Shrine, on the towering cliff face, Shisui formed a hand seal with one hand, used his Sharingan to dispel the illusion, and then entered the cave.

"Senior, you've seen the news, haven't you? Some members of our tribe are trying to make contact with the enemy who destroyed our village!"

"They somehow got the information that the other party was a descendant of Uchiha Madara."

"Some of Madara Uchiha's followers even wanted to secretly bring that guy back. These clansmen have gone mad; they're even planning to propagate a specific bloodline..."

As Shisui finished speaking, a look of confusion appeared on his face. Clearly, none of these messages were accurate, yet some of his clansmen believed them without question.

The older members of the clan, in particular, valued Madara's bloodline highly. Shisui couldn't understand this, as ninja talent isn't something that's fixedly inherited.

Furukawa Osamu, standing by the campfire, almost burst out laughing. Seeing Shisui's anxious expression, he managed to control himself and replied with a serious face, "These people are just bewitched by power."

"There's no need to worry too much; there's always the power of ninja worship."

"You need to be careful not to let anyone with ulterior motives know about this information. The Dark Team just added that some missions are currently being carried out by Root Team members."

"That ninja in darkness hasn't forgotten you. He's been hoping for a breakdown in relations between the Uchiha clan and the village."

Uchiha Shisui breathed a sigh of relief. He was somewhat relieved that Orochimaru was not around and that all the work of the Anbu was being handled by Furukawa Osamu, so the Root members dared not act recklessly.

"Senior, I'll control them!"

"If anyone tries to contact the guy who attacked the village, I will deal with it myself."

"I still don't understand why anyone would worship their enemy when our happy lives have been destroyed by them..."

Zhengshui deeply resented that "clan" who had disrupted the peace. If it weren't for this attack, the Uchiha clan wouldn't have been suspected by some of the higher-ups.

Osamu Furukawa was actually happy to see some Uchiha members with extreme ideas come out, so that he could eliminate potential threats in the future and collect some material along the way.

However, seeing Shisui's unusually dejected look, Furukawa Osamu patted the boy's shoulder and gently comforted him, "After all, he is your clansman. At your age, you don't need to shoulder these responsibilities."

"Do you remember what I told you? It's hard to change other people's minds; the only thing we can do is to constantly strengthen ourselves."

"You will definitely master the power of the Mangekyou Sharingan, and then all the problems will be solved."

"Shisui, I believe you can do it."

Seeing the trusting look in Furukawa Osamu's eyes, Uchiha Shisui blushed slightly and lowered his head.

From childhood to adulthood, only Osamu Furukawa would encourage and teach him like this: "Thank you, senpai, I will definitely not let you down."
