Konoha: I, Uchiha, am brimming with positive energy

Chapter 180 Jiraiya's Decision (Please Subscribe)

The first fusion of Sage Chakra exhausted Nohara Rin's strength.

He lay sprawled on the ground, panting heavily and too weak to move. His clothes were soaked with sweat and covered in dust.

"I didn't realize I was this tired. I just want to fall asleep right now."

The thought flashed through Nohara Rin's mind, and then her exhaustion quickly made her fall asleep.

"Are you asleep?"

Uchiha Yoichi noticed that Nohara Rin's breathing gradually calmed down, so he moved closer and took a closer look.

One of the root causes of the Fourth Shinobi World War—who would have thought it would be an ordinary girl? Besides her pretty face, all she had was a youthful and lively temperament.

Uchiha Yoichi reached out and applied a Flying Thunder God Seal to the Sage's Curse Seal on the back of Nohara Rin's neck, which perfectly matched the Sage's Curse Seal.

"Three-Phase Seal!"

After applying the Flying Thunder God Mark, Uchiha Yoichi applied another layer of seal to delay the reactivation of the Flying Thunder God Technique. This was developed by Uzumaki Mina and named the Three-Phase Seal, which corresponds exactly to the three tomoe of the Flying Thunder God Technique.

After doing this, Uchiha Yoichi's eyes transformed back into the Mangekyou Sharingan, and he then left a transcription seal on Nohara Rin's heart.

It was Yamawa Yama-no-Mikoto's eye power. This eye power could temporarily ensure that Nohara Rin wouldn't die even if her heart was shattered. Then, she used the Reverse Flying Thunder God Technique to send the person to Uchiha Yoichi's front.

Having made so many preparations for a young girl, Uchiha Yoichi hoped that Uchiha Obito would live up to his expectations and be worthy of his sacrifices.

After a while, Nohara Rin slowly woke up and found herself covered with a blanket, while Uchiha Yoichi was leaning against a tree nearby.

Nohara Rin quickly stood up, embarrassed, and apologized, "I'm so sorry, Yoichi-sama, I actually fell asleep just now."

"It's alright, this is my shadow clone. Now that you're awake, go back and get some rest. We'll do it again in three days."

After saying that, Uchiha Yoichi's shadow clone turned into smoke and dissipated.

Upon witnessing this, Nohara Rin couldn't help but think to herself, "Yoichi really knows how to take care of people. Not only did he cover her with a blanket, but he also used a shadow clone to watch over her. If only Kakashi did that too!"

Unfortunately, during the time they were surrounded by Iwa ninja, Rin Nohara already knew that Kakashi didn't have those feelings for her. She even helped Obito convey his feelings before they were both in danger.

Thinking of this, Nohara Rin sighed inwardly, then got up to pack the blanket, intending to take it back to wash it clean and return it to Yoichi next time she came.

The Sage Chakra contains the will of Uchiha Yoichi, which will slowly influence Nohara Rin. Although it is impossible to replace Nohara Rin's personality, it will make her identify with Uchiha Yoichi and accept everything about him.

After leaving the Uchiha clan's territory, Nohara Rin was exhausted and was slowly walking home; however, as she was walking, she suddenly heard someone calling her from behind.

Rin Nohara turned around and saw Kushina, so she greeted her, "Kushina-neechan, are you out shopping?"

"Yes, Minato was planning to treat his teacher today, so I cooked something nice for them; it's a pity I couldn't get any Magic Goat Meat. They were supposed to sell 200 pounds this afternoon, but when I got there, I couldn't even get half a pound."

Upon seeing Nohara Rin, Kushina immediately vented her frustration from queuing.

Then, noticing that Nohara Rin was covered in dust and looked exhausted, he asked, "Rin, did you just go to train?"

"I guess so. I've been learning medical ninjutsu from Mina-sensei lately."

Rin Nohara recounted what had happened to Kushina, then clenched her small, white fist slightly and said, "Kushina-neechan, I don't want to drag my teammates down anymore."

"Mina would actually teach students on her own initiative? That's a bit unbelievable," Kushina said, frowning slightly. "But what's that Sage's Seal? I think I heard Minato mention it."

"It's the one that Kurenai Yuhi and Satomi Hyuga used during the Chunin Exams. It seems to be a cursed seal technique that can absorb natural energy and transform chakra into sage chakra, enhancing the power of ninjutsu, taijutsu, and genjutsu."

"That guy can even develop this kind of cursed seal technique? It must be Mina Inui's."

Kushina asked with some curiosity, but noticing Rin's exhaustion, she knew that she needed rest most of all, so she said, "Rin, you should go back and rest. You look very tired."

"Then I'll head back now, Kushina-neechan."

Nohara Rin also felt extremely tired. The fusion of Sage Chakra had completely depleted her strength, and she was only able to walk now thanks to the fact that she had already taken a nap.

After saying goodbye to Nohara Rin, Kushina returned home. When she got back, she saw that Jiraiya had already arrived and was sitting at the table talking with Minato.

"Jiraiya-sensei, you're already here. Wait a moment, I'll go make some food right away."

Upon hearing this, Jiraiya smiled and greeted her, "Yo, Kushina, Minato is truly blessed to be with you!"

"Hehehe, that's too kind of you!"

Kushina waved her hand, but a smug smile appeared on her face, making Jiraiya and Minato Namikaze's lips twitch. This was all too easy to understand.

"By the way, Minato, do you know about the Sage Seal?"

After hearing this, Minato Namikaze pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Sage Curse Seal? I'm not quite sure. Is it Sage Mode? Kushina, why are you asking this?"

"That seems to have been developed by Orochimaru. He used the Cursed Seal Technique to cultivate the Sage Mode of Ryuchi Cave."

Jiraiya suddenly remembered the information he had recently investigated, so he said, "That guy combined Sage Mode with the Cursed Seal Technique in order to learn it. Didn't Uchiha Yoichi's student use it during the Chunin Exams? Orochimaru must have taught Uchiha Yoichi that."

"I heard it's similar to Sage Mode, but it consumes a lot of stamina and can only be used for a few minutes."

Upon hearing this, Kushina asked, "Is the Sage's Seal dangerous?"

Jiraiya stroked his chin and said, "Anything related to natural abilities is dangerous, but Orochimaru probably simplified the dangers before developing it. At least those three genin in the Chunin Exams had no problem using it."

"That's alright then, you guys chat, I'm going to cook."

After Kushina finished speaking, she skipped and hopped into the kitchen.

Jiraiya gave Minato a look, and the latter nodded to indicate that he understood. He would ask Kushina that night why she asked about the Sage's Curse Seal.

The two then returned to the house. After closing the door, Jiraiya said in a low voice, "Minato, now that the war is over, I plan to go out of the village to investigate what the Toad Lord mentioned last time."

"Jiraiya-sensei, I'll go with you too."

Before Minato Namikaze could finish speaking, Jiraiya interrupted him, saying, "Minato, you can stay in the village. Konoha has just gone through a war and is short-handed. I had to beg Sakumo for ages before I left Konoha. If you leave too..."

Jiraiya didn't continue speaking, but Minato Namikaze understood what he meant.

The village is in dire need of manpower, and you two, master and disciple, left the village at the same time when the Fourth Hokage needed manpower, and even came up with a lame mission excuse. What does this mean?

"I haven't been able to get any useful information from Orochimaru lately, so I'm planning to go check out Ryuchi Cave. I'll leave the village to you. I have a feeling that the person Gamabunta was talking about is Uchiha Yoichi, but I don't have any proof."

"Jiraiya-sensei, why do you feel that way?"

"His personality is too domineering!"

Jiraiya sighed and continued, "Danzo has already inherited the Second Hokage's tough style, but compared to Uchiha Yoichi, I even think Danzo is inferior to him. If he were to clash with Mount Myōboku..."

Minato Namikaze's expression also turned serious, and he said to Jiraiya, "I understand, Jiraiya-sensei. I will also do my best to gather information in the village."

"Okay, that's good. Just do your best and don't get caught."

----------

"Is he still doing these boring rehabilitation exercises?"

"Hmm, I can't persuade him. He's an artificial being with Hashirama cells; he just needs to rest to recover. But he seems to think these things are very useful."

White Zetsu and Tobi kept talking, unable to see any potential in Obito, only feeling that he was an idiot.

However, since it was Ban's will, they had no choice but to obediently follow orders.

"Ah, she's fainted again. This is the twenty-third time."

After seeing Obito faint from exhaustion, Afei went up to him, picked him up, and put him on the bed.

After a while, thanks to the regenerative power of Hashirama's cells, Obito quickly woke up. When he saw Tobi and White Zetsu by his bedside, he asked, "How long have I been asleep?"

"I don't know, there's no time underground, anyway you slept for a while!"

"Isn't this redundant? Can't you tell me some useful information?"

Obito Uchiha shouted in a fit of rage. He was furious with these two artificial humans. He felt that they weren't there to monitor him, but to annoy him.

"Could you tell me some news about Lin?"

White Zetsu shook his head and said, "Who would go to Konoha to gather information? Apart from the end of the war, we don't know any more details."

"Then you guys are really useless."

"There's nothing I can do, because they're monitoring you!"

"hateful!"

Obito clenched his fists in anger, but he didn't completely miss out on good news. The war was over, so Rin would be safe from danger.

When he returns, he will protect Lin with even greater strength!

"By the way, what about that old man who claimed to be my ancestor?"

Obito noticed that the seats, which were usually occupied, were now empty, and asked a question.

"What do you mean by 'claiming himself'? You still don't believe he's Uchiha Madara?"

Bai Jue spoke up, "He went out to gather information."

"A ninja who's lived this long is unrealistic," Obito Uchiha couldn't help but retort, then suddenly paused and asked, "Gathering information? Aren't you guys there? Why did he have to go by himself?"

The White Zetsu in its true form said, "How could we possibly compare to Lord Madara? There are some things only he can do."

For example, controlling the Hidden Mist Ninja!

The Hidden Mist ninja have just captured the Three-Tails and are preparing to select a Jinchuriki, but this news was reported to Madara Uchiha by White Zetsu.

Madara Uchiha also had the idea of ​​making Obito completely fall into darkness and realize the true nature of the ninja world, so that Obito would become one of them.

the other side.

As the Akatsuki organization grew stronger, Fugaku Uchiha, though he didn't learn the essence of Yoichi Uchiha's teachings, was absolutely right to have the Akatsuki avoid Hanzo.

Hanzo is a demigod of the Land of Rain; going against him will not end well.

Now they mainly focus on developing relationships with civilians. If the Rain Ninja launch a large-scale manhunt, the civilians of the Land of Rain who believe in the Akatsuki organization will also help the Akatsuki members hide, making the Rain Ninja's manhunts return empty-handed several times.

On this day, the Akatsuki elders were having a meeting. Their supplies were running out quickly, and the second batch of supplies they had obtained from Konoha had already been used up.

After discussion, Yahiko decided to request another batch of supplies; although there was still some time before the agreed date for the third batch of supplies, if they were to run out of supplies now, they would probably have trouble even eating and drinking.

Yahiko said to everyone, "Konoha has now ceased hostilities, so I plan to go to Konoha again to request a third batch of supplies."

Konan asked worriedly, "Yahiko, it's not time yet, Konoha might..."

"I know, but now that the war is over, I heard that Konoha has elected a new Hokage. I want to talk to the Fourth Hokage of Konoha and hope to get more support from him."

Yahiko told everyone that he had grown after the previous incidents; this time he planned to use the importance of the Akatsuki organization in the Land of Rain to persuade the new Hokage of Konoha.

If the Fourth Hokage of Konoha is a believer in peace, then he will talk to him about the Akatsuki's philosophy and development; otherwise, he will let it go.

Who was the Fourth Hokage of Konoha? Did they win or lose?

Yahiko frowned and thought for a moment, then said, "It seems to be Konoha's White Fang. As for Konoha's two wars, they should be considered victories, right? I heard that Konoha's Raiga is invincible on the battlefield, and thousands of Cloud Ninja have died at his hands."

He had received the information through so many hands that he didn't even know how many times it had been passed down, from hundreds of people to thousands, and finally to several thousand more.

However, upon hearing the name Uchiha Yoichi, Fugaku clenched his fists. He was consumed by a thirst for revenge, but unfortunately, his own strength was insufficient, and he was falling further and further behind Uchiha Yoichi in terms of power.

We can only hope that Itachi will grow stronger or join the Eye of the Moon Project.

Looking at the three energetic young men in front of him, Fugaku Uchiha could only silently think that he was sorry to them.

Although we don't know the specifics of Madara Uchiha's Eye of the Moon plan, the fact that such a precious item as the Rinnegan was placed in this young man means his future will definitely not be good.

"It's decided, let's go to Konoha. Konan, you're coming with me this time. Nagato, you and Naga-kun stay at the base."

After discussion, Yahiko made a decision.

Please vote for me!
