Konoha: This Uchiha is extremely sneaky

Chapter 125 Hope

"White Zetsu! Shut up!"

Ban, who was sitting on the stone chair, spoke. His voice was hoarse and unpleasant because he hadn't spoken for so long.

"Uchiha Toshiro, seems to be that genius who successfully awakened the Sharingan at the age of eight. If I remember correctly, he's the grandson of that girl who controls the girl~"

I slowly turned my head a little to stretch my neck, which had become increasingly stiff from not moving for a long time.

The old man began to think, recalling this particular descendant of his family whom he was focusing on.

At the same time, the other party's information appeared in his mind without any errors or omissions.

He knows everything about Toshiro's blood relatives and elders, which also awakens some memories that have been buried deep in his mind.

"Has it been so many years? Even the grandson who used to discipline this little girl is growing up quite a bit now..."

After uttering this remark, he seemed to fall silent for a moment, recalling bits and pieces of the past, making the entire underground space so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

However, this memory didn't last long before it was interrupted by a noisy noise.

"Madara...do you know what the urge to poop is?"

Even with his current calm and composed mindset, he suddenly felt a bit of a headache.

Did something happen that I'm unaware of when I created this character?

Otherwise, why would these beings created after Black Zetsu appear so...?

Could it be that subconsciously, I crave someone to be with me?

……

After a long silence, ignoring White Zetsu's trash talk, Madara Uchiha asked directly, "Toshiro Uchiha has set sail? Have you found out why?"

He didn't ask the White Zetsu beside him, but instead asked the Black Zetsu, who appeared even more sinister and terrifying in this dark environment.

Compared to White Zetsu, this creation that he created first seems much more normal.

"They've gone out to find a summoning beast!"

Without further ado, the biggest mastermind in the ninja world is carefully accompanying Madara in staging this play that he directed and starred in himself.

His voice was just really unpleasant.

It was as if, instead of vocal cords, a large handful of rough sand was rubbing against each other in his throat, producing the sound.

"Is that so? No need to worry about it too much~"

Toshiro had no idea that he was now within Madara's sight. If he did, he would be even more harmless than a quail...

"Madara... Compared to the other candidates... this Uchiha Toshiro... is undoubtedly the best among them... Do you have a plan for when to begin your operation?"

Possessing another white Zetsu, Black Zetsu used his unique voice to ask his question.

The selection of someone to replace Ban is extremely important, and he has to be careful, as it relates to whether he can successfully rescue "Mom".

"A candidate...?"

"We need to see if there's anyone more suitable than this kid..."

He was undecided for a moment whether to choose this grandson of a former family member to be the executor of his plan.

This clan descendant named Uchiha Toshiro was, in every respect, a near-perfect executor of the plan.

In terms of ability, perseverance, wisdom, and character, he far surpasses the other candidates.

However, such people all have their own ideas and are generally difficult to control. Even adding a puppet control talisman is not a guarantee of safety.

After all, the Uchiha clan possesses the forbidden technique "Izanagi," and that child is the grandson of the Uchiha clan leader who created "Izanami." It's hard to guarantee that the child won't break free of control.

"How's Obito Uchiha, whom I asked you to keep an eye on last time?"

He has a file on every Uchiha child who has graduated or is about to graduate in recent years. He also checks on them occasionally so that he can find some potential targets.

I must be extremely careful with this choice. Although Black Zetsu is the embodiment of my will, it doesn't have much combat power. If I'm not careful, all my hard work over the years could be wasted...

"I know! I know!"

At this moment, the White Zetsu, who had been ignored all along, finally spoke up.

"That guy! He's so stupid~ A complete loser!"

"I spend all my time fantasizing about winning the heart of the girl I love after awakening the Sharingan~"

"He doesn't pay attention in class and is always late, supposedly because he helps some elderly people cross the street or something..."

"Is that so? That's a pretty good candidate..."

"..."

He has a beloved girl, always likes to help the elderly, and the key point is that he doesn't seem to be very smart. All these factors combined make him a candidate he is quite satisfied with!

I just don't know how much potential this child will ultimately unleash...

At this moment, Toshiro had no idea that his mere voyage at sea, in a place unknown to him in the ninja world, would cause an old man to suffer from indecisiveness...

At this time, he was working even harder to cultivate immortal arts.

What he relied on was a characteristic of shadow clones.

When a shadow clone returns to its original body, it brings back not only fatigue, memories, and experience, but also unused chakra.

Of course, this is assuming the shadow clone dissipates normally. If the shadow clone is broken by external force, what returns to the original body will only be some memories and fatigue.

The remaining chakra will dissipate into the air.

This is relatively reasonable. If the chakra can return to the main body after the shadow clone is destroyed, then by the same logic, after using ninjutsu, can the chakra that has been consumed also return to the main body?

That's obviously impossible; otherwise, Naruto probably wouldn't have ever run out of chakra.

Given his chakra reserves as the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, and considering his ability to automatically return to his original body after chakra is depleted, it's estimated that he could never exhaust his chakra no matter how many shadow clones or Rasengans he created...

When Toshiro discovered this characteristic, he couldn't help but have a wild idea: since the chakra would naturally dissipate into the air after the shadow clones were broken.

So, if you are trying to cultivate immortal techniques and you use shadow clones, you can immediately destroy the shadow clones if anything goes wrong.

Would this prevent natural energy from going out of control and causing harm to oneself?

The future crown prince can use shadow clones to cultivate immortal arts, and so can I!

The only problem is whether natural energy, after entering the shadow clone body, will dissipate into the air like chakra after the shadow clone is destroyed.

Even if something unexpected happens, as long as the total amount of chakra in the main body is greater than that in the shadow clone, the natural energy from the shadow clone will return to the main body, neutralizing it without any risk of going out of control.

The success of this experiment gave him boundless motivation.

Hope lies in the distance, glory resides on the other side...
