Konoha: I, Uchiha, am brimming with positive energy

Chapter 308 Tsunade's Invigoration

"Oh my, I really didn't expect to win a necklace just like my wife's here."

Looking at the two identical necklaces in his hand, Uchiha Yoichi smiled and said, "Now I can return one to her when we get back. This necklace is quite precious; she wore it for a long time before giving it to me."

"Damn it! Keep going, I'm going to win!"

Tsunade angrily rolled up her sleeves, determined to win back her grandfather's necklace.

The moment she handed over the necklace, she regretted it. Losing money gambling was one thing, but she absolutely couldn't lose this necklace; it wasn't just a cursed necklace, but also her last remaining memory.

Do you still have any money left to gamble?

Uchiha Yangyi glanced at the spot in front of Tsunade, which was now completely empty; even the box had been taken by Uchiha Yangyi to fill with money.

Now, the only valuable thing Tsunade and Shizune have left is that pig.

Shizune said in a panic, "Lady Tsunade, what should we do? We even lost that necklace, this is terrible!"

"Stop talking, mute!"

Tsunade gritted her teeth and said, then reluctantly asked Uchiha Yangyi, "Hey, what's your name? Let's bet again tomorrow, on my necklace. I'll get the stakes."

"This is my necklace."

Uchiha Yoichi put away the two necklaces, hung them back around his neck, and said, "Just call me Yoichi. Now, let's go eat. If you're hungry, come along."

"Um, is that okay?"

Upon hearing this, Jingyin asked with delight. She was worried about where to eat today, and it would be even better if she could help them find accommodation.

Upon seeing this, Tsunade immediately scolded, "Shizune, have some self-respect!"

"You've gambled away all my potential, Lady Tsunade."

"What did you say?"

Tsunade's face darkened, and Shizune hugged Ton-Ton without daring to speak.

"If you're planning to have dinner together, then come along."

"Uchiha Yoichi said, then picked up the money he had won that night and walked outside.

Tsunade and Shizune exchanged a glance inside the house. In the end, Tsunade bit her red lips reluctantly and followed them. It wasn't just for the meal, but more importantly, she wanted the necklace back.

The three of them went to an izakaya (Japanese pub), found a quiet corner, and ordered some sake and side dishes to eat and drink.

Feeling depressed, Tsunade took a glass and poured herself a drink after Uchiha Yoichi handed her a bottle of shochu.

After a while, Tsunade was a little drunk, but she still muttered firmly, "Tomorrow, I must gamble again. I must win the necklace back."

"Is this chain important to you?"

"Of course, it's not just important, this necklace..."

Shizune was about to say it was a cursed necklace, but then she realized that mentioning it would expose Tsunade's wound, so she changed her words: "This necklace is extremely valuable, very valuable!"

After a moment of silence, Tsunade said, "This necklace was left by someone important, so I must win it back."

"So it was a form of emotional support. Then why don't you go find that person who's important to you?"

"They have passed away."

"I see."

Uchiha Yoichi nodded, then continued, "You must be ninjas, right? I've heard that ninjutsu is quite amazing. Aren't there any ninjutsu techniques that can revive people?"

"You bastard."

Upon hearing this, Tsunade narrowed her eyes, then asked with a wary gaze, "You're not an ordinary person. What's your purpose?"

"No, no, no, you misunderstand. Although I am not an ordinary person, I am not your enemy either. I am telling you all this only because of this necklace."

Uchiha Yoichi waved his hand and said, "I am an Onmyoji. Although you may not have heard of this, the history of Onmyoji predates that of you ninjas by a long time!"

Upon hearing this, Tsunade's face flashed with surprise, and she asked, "Onmyoji? What's that?"

After Kaguya Otsutsuki ate the Chakra Fruit, the Onmyoji disappeared. It's normal that Tsunade didn't know, and there are probably very few people in the ninja world who know about Onmyoji.

"Controlling heaven and earth, communicating between yin and yang, that is what Onmyoji are. We have many abilities. Although we are not as good as you ninjas in combat, in other aspects, Onmyoji are definitely stronger than ninjas."

Uchiha Yoichi said with a smile. Upon hearing this, Tsunade, seemingly unconvinced, slammed her wine glass on the table and said, "Do you think I would believe such a thing?"

"Perfect timing, I was just about to prove my abilities to you. Hmm~, how about this, if you could resurrect the person you most want to see, who would you choose?"

Uchiha Yoichi feigned precognition, took out a necklace and said to Tsunade, "I sense it. This necklace holds two of your longings, but I can only let you see one. Who will you choose?"

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

A flicker of surprise crossed Tsunade's pretty face. Then, seeing that Uchiha Yoichi didn't seem to be joking but was speaking to her seriously, she immediately asked warily, "What's your purpose? Why did you come to me?"

"It's good for older women to be cautious, but you're being too cautious. In that case, let me help you choose!"

Uchiha Yang chuckled, then reached out and pressed his finger on Tsunade's forehead, instantly causing Tsunade's beautiful eyes to close and slowly fall asleep.

"Lady Tsunade, this..."

"You should get some sleep too!"

Uchiha Yoichi glanced at Shizune only once, and with a mental shock, Shizune immediately fainted.

In the end, only one pig was left. However, when Tonton noticed that Uchiha Yoichi was looking at it, the pig trembled and fell asleep on its own.

"Ha, what's the point of wasting these past few years? Why not become a savior!"

After finishing speaking, Uchiha Yoichi walked out of the izakaya. He had not had the opportunity to use the Yin-Yang Technique since he learned it. In his timeline, there was Otsutsuki Hagoromo in the Pure Land, so Uchiha Yoichi would not easily go to the other party's territory.

But it shouldn't matter here. Gamamaru and Hagoromo Otsutsuki don't know about his existence, so Uchiha Yoichi can finally give Yin-Yang Technique a try.

As for Kato Dan and Nawaki, Uchiha Yoichi only intended to revive the latter. Although this Tsunade was not his wife, she was exactly the same as him inside and out, and Uchiha Yoichi was not that generous.

"The Gate to Pure Land - Hasten, Hasten, As the Law Commands!"

After Uchiha Yoichi used the Yin-Yang Technique, a twenty-meter-long Yin-Yang Technique command array suddenly appeared beneath his feet. Subsequently, numerous figures appeared within the command array, but Uchiha Yoichi did not recognize most of them.

He then took out the Tsunade necklace from the Time-Space Era, cast another spell, and the number of figures rapidly decreased until only five people remained.

Hashirama Senju, Nawaki, and Mito Uzumaki. The other two are probably Tsunade's parents; it seems the necklace also passed through their hands.

Then, Uchiha Yoichi took out a White Zetsu body and used Yin-Yang Release to transform the White Zetsu body into the appearance of Nawaki. He then used a spell to bring back Nawaki's spirit from the Pure Land.

After placing the spirit of Rope Tree into the body modified by Yin-Yang Escape and replenishing it with enough life energy, Rope Tree was completely revived after about ten minutes.

--------------

"Sister, sister? Are you alright?"

While Tsunade was in a daze, she suddenly heard Nawaki's voice. She slowly opened her eyes and saw Nawaki standing next to her with a worried look on his face.

"Rope tree?"

After Tsunade came to her senses, she looked around. Shizune was still lying on the table next to her. Tonton started whimpering when it saw that she was awake, and Nawaki next to her was not a figment of her imagination.

Seeing Tsunade's blank expression, Nawaki continued to ask, "Sister, are you alright?"

"Transformation magic or something? You dare try to fool me with that face? You're asking for death."

Enraged, Tsunade grabbed Nawaki by the collar and raised her fist to strike.

This action terrified Rope Tree. Knowing how strong his older sister was, he panicked and quickly covered his face, saying, "Sister, it really is Rope Tree! Two months ago, you made me beef with onions, but you not only bought pork instead of beef, but you also burned it. You forced me to eat it, and I ended up in the hospital on an IV drip."

After Nawaki finished speaking, Tsunade stopped. Although Nawaki said it was two months ago, to her, it had been twenty years.

"Rope, Rope Tree, is that really you?"

Tsunade rubbed Nawaki's face hard in disbelief, then used various methods such as dispelling genjutsu on herself. Finally, seeing that Nawaki was still standing in front of her, she couldn't help but burst into tears and hugged Nawaki in her arms.

Rope Tree happily said, "Sister, I'm back."

After a while, Tsunade managed to suppress her excitement and quickly asked, "Nawaki, how did you revive? You should..."

"Yes, I know I died. I remember my memories of dying very clearly. As for resurrection, a stranger resurrected me. He said he won your necklace, so he did it as compensation. By the way, sister, he said his name is Yang Yi."

Nawaki quickly recounted the events of the past to Tsunade in detail, including how he was resurrected and how he felt afterward. Nawaki felt much stronger than before, whether in terms of chakra, strength, or stamina.

"Yang Yi, it's that guy."

As Tsunade was just muttering that name, she suddenly felt a lot more things pop into her head.

A training method, a ninjutsu technique improved with superhuman strength, and other things. Finally, there's the untrustworthy claim about the toad, the toad that betrayed the Onmyoji, and is now slowly extending its reach into the ninja world.

"That guy... how did he manage to cram so much stuff into my head?"

After a long pause, Tsunade slowly sorted out her memories. As she felt the new memories in her brain, a look of shock appeared on her beautiful face.

Seeing that Tsunade seemed to be in a lot of pain, Nawaki asked worriedly, "Sister, are you alright?"

"No, it's nothing."

Tsunade waved her hand and said, then the more she looked at the additional memories in her mind, the more shocked she became; that person was already very strong in ninjutsu, and there was also a ninjutsu modified based on her monstrous strength, which was dozens of times stronger than her monstrous strength.

"Just who is this guy named Yang Yi? Is he an Onmyoji?"

Tsunade was filled with doubt. If he was an Onmyoji, why was he being so kind to her? Was it simply because he disliked toads, or because she and Jiraiya were comrades?

The resurrection of Nawaki, along with so many other gifts, left Tsunade somewhat bewildered; however, before falling asleep, she seemed to vaguely remember a sentence that said she had been depressed for so long.

"Mute, wake up."

Tsunade woke Shizune up. Shizune, still looking dazed and with drool at the corner of her mouth, greeted Tsunade with, "Good morning, Lady Tsunade."

"What good morning? You're still half asleep. Get ready, we're going back to Konoha!"

Tsunade spoke, explaining that this was a decision she had just made.

Now that Nawaki has been resurrected and received such a precious gift, she shouldn't be discouraged. Moreover, Nawaki needs to return to the village, and she needs the power of Konoha to search for the whereabouts of the man named Yoichi.

There was also news about the toads. After reading the information in her mind, Tsunade, who hadn't thought much of it before, suddenly realized: Why would Mount Myōboku know about the chosen ones of humanity? If they were found, would the chosen ones have to study under Mount Myōboku?

When I get back, I'll have to ask the Slug Sage about Onmyoji.

------------

"The Uchiha clan in this timeline seems to be in bad shape; are they actually preparing for a revolution?"

Itachi spent some time researching information and even used genjutsu to hypnotize a member of the guard before he obtained this information.

He now admires his father, Fugaku. In his world, he betrayed his village; in this world, he led his clan in revolution—truly a restless father.

However, Itachi also learned that the Nine-Tails was controlled by humans during the tailed beast rampage eight years ago, and that Sharingan appeared in its eyes. Therefore, after the Nine-Tails' rampage, the Uchiha clan has been treated unfairly ever since.

After enduring for several years, the Uchiha clan could no longer tolerate it and decided to launch a revolution.

"What idiots! As expected, without Father, the Uchiha clan is like a headless beast."

Itachi learned about his father's news yesterday. There was indeed a person named Uchiha Yoichi in the clan. He was a little genius back then, but he died in a mission before the Third Shinobi World War.

Because he had been dead for so long, Itachi Uchiha had to ask some of the older members of his clan before he could find any information about Yoichi Uchiha.

After being shrouded in the Phantom Raven Mist, Itachi began to wander around the Uchiha clan. He wanted to resolve this farce, but he didn't know where to start.

"If only Father were here."

Itachi suddenly remembered Uchiha Yoichi. If he were here, he could definitely resolve this farce. However, Uchiha Yoichi had been missing for two days, and he only appeared when he was in danger.

"Huh? What am I supposed to do?"

Itachi suddenly noticed that the Uchiha Itachi in this world was acting mysteriously and wasn't carrying out any Anbu missions; he didn't know what he was up to.

Curious, Itachi followed, and since he was using the Illusionary Crow Mist, most people couldn't detect him.
