Konoha: The thirty-year-old Uchiha lacks motivation.

Chapter 94 I Was the One First

In the end, Bo Bing successfully saved himself.

"So, you really are Gintoki?"

After Uchiha Gin revealed his signature curly hair, the skeptical girl frowned her delicate brows and asked uncertainly.

"Genuine, guaranteed!"

Having escaped, Uchiha Gin slumped to the ground, looking at the girl in the stone coffin with lingering fear, afraid that he might say something wrong and be hung up and beaten by Susanoo again.

Humiliated, he secretly made a resolution in his heart.

Once I, Susanoo, don the Great Buddha costume, I'll teach you a lesson!

"Then why do you look so old?"

The young girl frowned slightly as she looked at Uchiha Gin. Her childhood sweetheart, who was a fresh-faced young man when they first met, was now an old hag. No one could accept that at first glance.

One could still vaguely discern the girl's youthful beauty from her face; she looked exactly as she had in the past. Time had left no trace on her face. Uchiha Gin organized her thoughts and began to speak.

"More than ten years have passed since you were sealed away."

"Did it really take that long?"

Although trapped in the dark stone coffin, the girl, unaffected by time, had no idea how much time had passed.

She had guessed it might be a few days or a few months, but she never expected that more than a decade had passed outside.

"How old are you this year?"

Shocked, the girl peeked out and asked Uchiha Gin his age.

"Just turned thirty~"

Uchiha Gin snorted proudly.

"Tsk!"

The girl felt a sense of foreboding. So many years had passed, and a boy as outstanding as A-Yin must have had many girls throwing themselves at him. Maybe even his child could use the Fireball Jutsu by now.

She was the one who started it.

Thinking of this, a sense of crisis rose in the girl's heart. She looked at her dark body, poked her head out, and said to Uchiha Gin outside,

"Bring me some water and some clothes."

Thinking that she couldn't leave a bad impression on Ah Yin, she decided to tidy herself up first.

Knowing the girl's situation inside the stone sarcophagus, and fearing to upset her, Uchiha Gin, who had hesitated to offer help, immediately raised his hands and formed hand seals. He had quite a few Water Release techniques obtained from the NPCs.

Water Release: Water Chaos

Controlling the amount of chakra, a jet of water shot out from Uchiha Gin's mouth and flew straight into the stone coffin.

Showering herself in the water pouring down from above, the girl glanced at Uchiha Gin, who was vigorously spraying water with his cheeks puffed out, and a slight smile appeared on her lips.

A hint of smugness flashed in his eyes, and then he began to wash off the charred color from his body. Before long, a fair and delicate body reappeared in the ninja world.

"Okay, give me the clothes."

The freshly washed girl interrupted Uchiha Gin's casting bar, her wet hair draped over her shoulders, giving her a pitiful appearance.

Upon seeing the girl's appearance, Uchiha Gin's heart skipped a beat, but remembering the girl's age, he immediately suppressed his fantasies and began rummaging through his bag for suitable clothes.

After searching for a while, Uchiha Gin looked troubled. Having not been on many missions, he was only concerned with purchasing ingredients, and a change of clothes was not on his mind.

Just as he was wondering what to do, he suddenly noticed a dark green hooded cloak in the corner of the system's bag. If the girl wore it, it would be just enough to cover her entire body.

"Here we go! Just make do with what you have for now."

Without much hesitation, Uchiha Gin tossed the dark green cloak with gold trim to the girl in the stone sarcophagus.

The girl had just dried her hair with fire chakra when she heard Uchiha Gin's voice and reached out to catch the dark green cloak.

Stroking the smooth material of the cloak, the girl nodded in satisfaction and immediately put on the clothes given to her by Uchiha Gin.

The moment she put it on, the girl felt a jolt of energy, her mind instantly became much clearer, and her chakra began to slowly recover.

[Mercury] Triggers when controlled, granting immunity to control effects for a period of time and increasing chakra refining speed. (Triggers once daily)

Touching the dark green silk coat she wore, she could sense its extraordinary nature. The girl smiled smugly. As expected, Ah Yin still loved her the most. When she got back, she would definitely teach those slutty and cheap women a lesson.

???

It was unclear what the girl was so happy about. Uchiha Gin, who had been waiting for a while, looked at the girl who jumped out of the stone coffin barefoot, his eyes slightly complicated.

What happens next is a bit tricky, but it shouldn't be a big problem.

It's time to put an end to this.

"Xiao Guang, let's go upstairs. Uncle is still waiting for us outside."

Uchiha Gin said to the girl who was spinning around admiring her coat,

"Uncle? The clan chief is here too?"

I didn't expect Uchiha Tajima to come too. He clearly wanted to be alone with Gintoki.

The girl, who wasn't in a particularly good mood, pouted and expressed some dissatisfaction with Uchiha Tajima, who was acting as a third wheel.

"Oh dear, my legs are a little weak."

Just as Uchiha Gin was about to jump, he heard the girl's delicate voice behind him and turned around helplessly. He saw the girl "weakly" leaning against the stone coffin.

"I'm out of energy, I need to be carried."

No, you hit me without holding back at all just now, why are you acting like a delicate flower now?

Having no other choice, Uchiha Gin carried the soft, boneless girl on his back. Feeling the warm touch on his back, Uchiha Gin suppressed the distracting thoughts in his mind and leaped out of the pit.

Using his senses, he quickly located Uchiha Tajima not far away. Carrying the girl on his back, he rushed over to meet up with his uncle, because danger could strike at any moment.

"A-Yin, you did it!"

Uchiha Tajima, who was resting with his eyes closed, was still wearing the magic resistance cloak that he had taken from Uchiha Gin.

Hearing the noise, he opened his eyes and saw that the person who came was Uchiha Gin, who was carrying a petite figure on his back. It seemed that he had successfully rescued Mumei.

"Greetings, Chieftain!"

Upon seeing Uchiha Tajima, the girl called out with a smile. Ever since she transplanted Gin's eyes into her, Uchiha Tajima had treated her like his own daughter, and the two had a very harmonious relationship.

"Let's leave here and return to our homeland as soon as possible."

Now is not the time to chat. The girl has been rescued, and it is not safe to stay here any longer. Besides, there is a pair of eyes watching Uncle from the shadows.

Gin Uchiha wasn't afraid of falling out with Yao Uchiha, and hurriedly urged Tajima Uchiha to return.

Uchiha Tajima nodded in agreement and prepared to get up and return with Uchiha Gin.

"Hehehe, where are you going?"

Just as the two were about to set off, a hoarse voice rang out from not far away, abruptly stopping them in their tracks.

Hearing the familiar voice, Uchiha Gin inwardly cursed with a headache, while Uchiha Tajima beside him looked warily at the suddenly appearing figure and asked in a threatening tone,

"Who are you?"

"Your man, Uchiha Tajima, is about to die!"

The figure that emerged from the ground was none other than Wang Liang. He slowly rose from the shadows on the ground, his black face, whose expression was obscured, faintly carrying a long-suppressed resentment.

At the same time, the black mud on his body began to wriggle, and then a hunched figure emerged from the mud.

"Hmph, Uchiha Tajima, do you even remember who I am?"

The hunched figure slowly raised its head, staring intently at Uchiha Tajima, whose brows were furrowed, with a single, grayish-white eye.

"You are... Uchiha Yao?"

At this moment, Uchiha Tajima, who also recognized the old man, said in disbelief, "This person couldn't possibly be out here."

"Weren't you locked in the dungeon? How did you end up here?"

"You are surrounded, Uchiha Tajima."

Uchiha Yao said coldly, "I have been waiting for this moment for more than twenty years. My wish to avenge my son is about to be fulfilled."

"Sacrifice, count your sins!"
