Konoha: I, Uchiha, am brimming with positive energy

Chapter 423 is the end! Hooray!

"You're back"

After confirming with He Li and seeing the clock he had placed before setting off, Uchiha Yoichi was certain that he had returned to the timeline he originally belonged to.

He was only one day away from leaving, but Uchiha Yoichi stayed in that future timeline for seventy or eighty years.

"This is what happens when you play with emotions. Remember this for the future."

Uchiha Yoichi sighed. He had asked Yamanaka Ino many times indirectly if she had an infinite lifespan, but wanted to go to another place with him.

Having spent a lot of time with Ino Yamanaka, Yoichi Uchiha also felt a little reluctant to part with her, but it was still very difficult for him to abandon Inojin Yamanaka, Yuko Yamanaka, and all his friends in Konoha.

It was impossible. Even if Uchiha Yoichi could forcibly bring Yamanaka Ino over, it would change her carefree and cheerful personality. So Uchiha Yoichi stayed with Yamanaka Ino until her death.

Before Yamanaka Ino passed away, Uchiha Yoichi almost couldn't resist channeling his life energy into her to bring her back to life. However, before Yamanaka Ino reached the end of her life, she held his hand and said that she had no regrets in this life, so he gave up the idea of ​​reviving Ino.

A hundred years after Konoha, Uchiha Yoichi rarely contacted Temari, Sakura, and Hinata Hyuga anymore, but the three of them knew about each other's falling in love; after Temari and Sakura became proficient in their teamwork, Uchiha Yoichi also brought Hinata Hyuga over.

Although Hinata Hyuga was almost forty years old at the time, she was so shy that she almost fainted. In the end, it was Temari and Sakura who comforted Hinata Hyuga together, because the two of them were used to it. Moreover, in order to prevent Hinata Hyuga from having an emotional breakdown and exposing it, which would implicate them, Sakura and Temari did their best to calm Hinata Hyuga down.

However, more than a decade later, Uchiha Yoichi gradually lost contact with the girls. After having his fill of fun, he slowly began to pursue and spend time with Yamanaka Ino. However, Temari's habits and addictions were too strong to break, and she would sometimes use Sakura to seduce Uchiha Yoichi, which was how they managed to maintain their relationship.

Memories of the future ninja world quickly replayed in Uchiha Yoichi's mind. He then shook his head and buried this long memory deep within his mind.

"It's time to go back to the village. We should be electing the Sixth Hokage now."

Uchiha Yoichi recalled that when he left, Konoha was definitely safe and sound. Before he left, only Iwagakure and Kumogakure remained in the ninja world, and only one day had passed since he left.

The Hidden Stone Village and the Hidden Cloud Village were already being generous by begging Konoha not to attack them. Given the current strength of these two ninja villages, it was simply a matter of whether Konoha wanted to devour them whole.

Uchiha Yoichi didn't want to get involved in unifying the ninja world after he left. Although he had the ability, it would keep him busy for a while. Moreover, if he was given all the difficult tasks, how would the younger generation grow up?

Moreover, after spending several decades in the future, Uchiha Yoichi's mindset has changed slightly.

He had already collected enough resources and benefits; all he needed to do now was consolidate and digest them. The ninja world was his rear territory, and as long as there was no trouble in the ninja world, Uchiha Yoichi could wait for Konoha to develop before expanding outwards.

After staying in Loulan for a while, Uchiha Yangyi flew directly into the air, heading towards Konoha. Before leaving, Uchiha Yangyi rearranged the barrier around Loulan. This place that could travel through time and space was only needed to be activated by him.

If one were to travel through time along a single line, it would have a significant impact on the present, past, and future, so Uchiha Yoichi wanted to avoid such a thing.

----------

Konoha, a standard modern city, is no longer appropriate to call it the Hidden Leaf Village; the idea of ​​building the village was entirely decided by Uchiha Yang on a whim, but the details were all done by his subordinates.

After returning to Konoha, Uchiha Yoichi went straight home.

At this moment, it seemed that there was not many people in the house. In Uchiha Yoichi's perception, only Mikoto and Yoko were there, while Tsunade, his biological mother, was not.

Uchiha Yang landed directly on the balcony. After entering the house, he saw a woman with a graceful figure just getting up from the bedside and asked, "Mikoto, where is the others?"

"Yang Yi? Why are you back all of a sudden?"

Mikoto Uchiha was taken aback by Yoichi Uchiha's sudden question, but she turned behind her and smiled gently, "Mina and Kushina went on a picnic, and Tsunade-neechan went with them. However, Yoko suddenly wanted to come back to sleep, so I'm watching Yoko for a while for Tsunade-neechan."

"How could Tsunade go on a picnic? That idiot must be at the casino. I'm going right now."

Uchiha Yoichi originally wanted to go to Konoha's casino to drag Tsunade back, but he quickly abandoned the idea; he himself was already doing whatever he wanted, so he might as well let the people around him indulge themselves a little.

Then Uchiha Yoichi reached out and pulled Mikoto into his arms, burying his head in her chest.

"Yoichi, Yoko just fell asleep~"

After sensing Uchiha Yoichi's movement, Mikoto blushed slightly and gently pushed him away.

Upon hearing this, Uchiha Yoichi released Mikoto, but after carrying her to another room, he buried his head in Mikoto's chest again; however, he did not take any further steps, but simply held Mikoto quietly.

"What's wrong, Yangyi?"

"It's nothing, I just miss you so much!"

"It's only been a day."

Although that's what she said, Mikoto still reached out and put her arm around Uchiha Yoichi's neck.

For Mikoto, Mina, Tsunade, and the others, it was just a day, but Uchiha Yoichi hadn't seen them for seventy or eighty years, so he missed them terribly now.

Uchiha Yoichi stayed in Mikoto's arms for an hour or two, and Mikoto gently leaned on him until Mina, Kushina, and the others all returned.

As soon as Naruto and Sasuke saw Uchiha Yoichi, they asked him for guidance. However, this time Uchiha Yoichi did not pass the buck to Itachi and Kimimaro, but readily agreed to give them proper guidance after the meal.

The only thing Uchiha Yoichi hasn't finished with yet is dealing with the hidden Jigen. However, he knows everything about Jigen's base and the space where the Ten-Tails is imprisoned. Tomorrow, he just needs to take Otsutsuki Kaguya to deal with Otsutsuki Isshiki.

After eliminating Isshiki, the last thorn in Kaguya's side was removed. Moreover, with Uchiha Yoichi and the remains of Otsutsuki Shibakai, Kaguya had a strong enough backing to protect her, allowing her to live in the ninja world with complete peace of mind.

As for Uchiha Yoichi, he had no plans to make any major moves within the next twenty years. He only needed to give orders for such tedious matters as exploring the universe, and then let the next generation go and explore.

His first day back was spent reuniting with his family. The second day, he led Kaguya to defeat Isshiki Otsutsuki, and Kaguya even used the All-Killing Ash Bones technique to defeat Jigen. The third day, he was announced as the Sixth Hokage.

The Sixth Hokage was Uchiha Shisui. Although Nawaki was also decent, he was somewhat impulsive. Moreover, the Senju brothers, Tobirama and Hashirama, favored Shisui more.

As for Sarutobi Asuma, he perfectly served as a background character. His idea of ​​becoming Hokage and then pursuing Kurenai Yuhi was a mistake from the start.

"Orochimaru, you should come out for a walk more often. You stay in the research lab all day. Even Nawaki says he hasn't seen you around."

Uchiha Yoichi arrived at Orochimaru's research lab and shook his head, saying, "Orochimaru is becoming more and more like a mad scientist, both in his behavior and appearance."

"What trouble is it now? Tsunade's name is listed in the Science Research Club, but I've never seen her even once, Yoichi-kun."

Orochimaru chuckled twice and said, while Uchiha Yangyi feigned ignorance and replied, "Is that so? I'll definitely ask Tsunade about it when I get back."

"Let's get down to business. I'm about to head out."

"There's some information that Orochimaru would definitely be interested in, and this is it."

"Is that all? This has surprised me quite a bit, Yoichi-kun."

"This is the table of contents; there are too many other technologies to list."

"Yang Yi-jun, get out of here!"

After being expelled by Orochimaru, Uchiha Yoichi wandered around Konoha again. He hadn't returned for a long time and had almost forgotten about Konoha in this timeline.

"Konoha here is still the best. Even if it's a hundred years ahead, it's still not as good as this place!"

After comparing the Konoha of the two timelines, Uchiha Yoichi thought to himself with certainty.

After leaving Konoha, Uchiha Yoichi went to the Land of Rain again. At his speed, he could fly there in about ten minutes.

Konan isn't home right now. She recently took on a mission from the Land of Rain, so she's basically staying here permanently.

After staying in Konan's room for a while, Uchiha Yoichi heard the door open.

"You've arrived."

After entering the house, Konan saw Uchiha Yoichi inside and said calmly; she couldn't say she hated Uchiha Yoichi right now, her feelings for the person in front of her were very complicated, and Konan herself didn't know.

"I'll go wash up first."

"I came to see you, I'll be going back in a bit."

Uchiha Yoichi interrupted Konan, then took out a medicine bottle from his pocket, placed it on the table, and continued, "Nagato can go now. You don't need to work so hard on missions every day anymore. Take a good rest."

"Wh-what?"

Xiao Nan was surprised upon hearing this, thinking she had misheard, and asked again, somewhat incredulously, "You just said..."

"Nagato can leave the prison, but he still needs to atone for his sins. He should stay in the Land of Rain and do his construction work properly. This secret medicine is enough to help his body recover."

"Didn't you say you'd wait for me?"

Xiao Nan stopped speaking before she could finish, her cheeks flushing slightly. The original agreement was that Nagato would only be free after she became pregnant, but her belly was still flat.

"I'm afraid you'll be busy until you die and still won't be able to get pregnant. Besides, you guys were just fooled, a bunch of idiots."

Seeing Konan's unwavering determination, Uchiha Yoichi smiled and patted her blue hair before continuing, "If you miss me, come to Konoha. Get some rest from now on."

After saying that, Uchiha Yoichi prepared to leave, but before he could take two steps, Konan grabbed his sleeve.

Turning around, Uchiha Yoichi saw Konan still looking at him with a stubborn expression. She said, "I don't want your pity. I'll earn Nagato's freedom through my own efforts."

After saying that, Konan grabbed Uchiha Yoichi's sleeve and walked towards the bedroom.

"Xiao Nan."

Although he could break free and leave, Uchiha Yoichi sensed Konan's thoughts and sighed as she dragged him into the bedroom.

A few hours later.

Uchiha Yoichi has a new problem. Konan, Nohara Rin, Kaguya, Yuhi Kurenai, and Satomi are almost all in Konoha. Their relationship will definitely be exposed, and then he'll be in trouble again.
