Konoha: This Uchiha is going a bit too far.

Chapter 103 Sage Mode and Divine Power (10,000-word chapter)

Late at night, Asma hummed a song as he walked home.

Although he was quite unhappy about being put between Hongdou and Hong at today's gathering, he was still very happy overall.

However, when he thought of the relationship between Yuzhi and Uchiha Hotaru, he couldn't help but purse his lips with envy.

"Does this guy really think nobody can't tell they're living together?"

Even though they're all about the same age, Asuma is still a little jealous that everyone else is already happily married while he hasn't made much progress yet.

Even knowing that this is a common practice in large families, I'm still envious!

"But this guy probably isn't having an easy time either. Uchiha Hotaru is so strong, and Rin likes him."

For some reason, Asuma suddenly revealed a wicked smile.

In the ninja world, there is no rule of monogamy, so it is perfectly normal for the rich, powerful, and capable to have multiple wives.

Just look at Daming's family, and people with the means just want him to have more children.

But with Uchiha Hotaru being so powerful, it seems that Yuuki's days are numbered.

"Especially given how popular you are."

Asma chuckled inwardly, but as he opened the door and stepped inside, he suddenly realized that something seemed off.

His Hokage father was glaring angrily at his older brother, while his older brother stood there innocently, not daring to utter a sound.

"Hand it over, it's not for you!"

"But what exactly is it?"

"You bastard, all the servants saw you go into my room, that's not a place for you to see right now!"

"I"

Asuma suddenly shivered. He had used a transformation technique to turn into his good older brother when preparing the haori, which was how he managed to find some good things.

Moreover, he never expected that his Hokage father would have such a hidden side.

No wonder Jiraiya is like that; he learned it from his old man!

Although he was filled with disdain, Asma didn't want to reveal it, after all, he had read that book quite a bit.

Seeing the old man's strong reaction, Asma started to panic.

"Huh? Asuma's back?"

The third generation looked at Ashima, who was standing there in a daze, and rubbed his temples helplessly.

"How did everything go today?"

"Ah, it went smoothly. The Yuri family is very nice."

Asma snapped out of his daze and immediately nodded.

"Moreover, it's clear that he's very popular within the Uchiha clan, and his words carry considerable weight."

Asuma went to accept the invitation, and the Third Hokage naturally wouldn't let this opportunity pass, but there wasn't much he needed to know.

That is to see how Yuzhi is doing in the clan. After all, Yuzhi is a rare normal person who is different from other Uchiha. He can't wait for this kid to take over.

However, Hagoromo remained undecided, even though he had effectively taken control of the police department; overall, he was still too conservative.

So he really wanted to figure out what the other lunatics in the Uchiha clan were thinking.

"Is that so? That looks pretty good."

The third generation nodded, completely ignoring his pitiful eldest son.

"It must have been Nine-Tails' performance that night that made the other nerves and everyone else behave themselves a lot."

It's a pity that the Kirigakure incident was top secret; otherwise, using it for publicity would have been more effective.

"Also, it seems that Yuzhi has expressed her feelings as well."

Seeing that his elderly father seemed to have been distracted, Asma immediately intensified his attack.

He didn't want the old man to keep thinking about the study, or he'd be in big trouble.

"What's in your heart?"

The Third Hokage came to his senses and looked at Asuma with some curiosity.

He said he wanted to become Hokage.

Asma didn't hide anything, and said with a smile.

"Naruto."

The Third Hokage pursed his lips upon hearing these words; he was well aware of Yuori's thoughts.

Minato had already spoken about Hagoromo's dream of becoming Hokage, so it's not appropriate to comment too much on this matter concerning the Third Hokage.

The children of Konoha all dream of becoming Hokage, and Yuki is from the Uchiha clan, so it's not unreasonable for her to have such thoughts.

However, as human beings, we all have selfish desires, and he naturally hoped that people from his own faction would continue to "queue up and rise to the top."

If he could, he would also like his two sons to work harder.

However, he didn't say anything more in the end, since the current situation of the Uchiha clan was already the best that could be foreseen.

As for what the future holds, let's wait and see. Besides, Minato is still young.

"I might not even see that scene when I die, so why think about it?"

The third generation leader planted a flag in his heart, but he felt that it wouldn't be a bad thing if Haori really got involved.

After all, Yuri is someone with the "Will of Fire".

"Then let him do his best. After all, the Hokage position is given to the most capable person."

The Third Hokage said with a smile, though he himself couldn't quite tell whether it was just polite talk or what he truly felt.

However, he didn't dwell on it and immediately looked at his two silly sons with a stern face.

"And you two, give me a push! Everyone else dreams of becoming Hokage, what about you?"

here we go again.

Asma pursed his lips, while his good older brother kept his head down and didn't dare to utter a word.

"Haori is the same age as Asuma, but look at his strength now, and then look at the two of you."

The third generation immediately switched to "other people's children" mode, nagging his two silly sons at length.

Asma and his good brother stood there together, getting scolded, but both of them secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Thankfully, I'm no longer dwelling on that book."

"Finally, they're not asking me if I went to his room."

While the third generation was educating his son, he was also pondering other things.

The situation with Tsunade is still unclear. Although the person has been found, Tsunade's ninja skills are clearly still intact, and she is consciously avoiding the Anbu.

At this rate, who knows when this disciple will be able to return?

Moreover, the Hidden Cloud Village and the Hidden Stone Village have been quite restless lately, and their spies left in Konoha have also begun to take action after the Nine-Tails incident.

This made the Third Hokage realize that the situation in Kirigakure needed to be publicized as soon as possible, and that the mysterious Uchiha should be portrayed as a troublesome figure.

"Besides that, Tsunade needs to come back soon and see if she can do anything for those kids."

Three pairs of Mangekyou Sharingan are indeed terrifying, but as the Hokage, he also knew some of the drawbacks of the Mangekyou Sharingan.

Konoha needs this kind of power right now; there's never been such a thing as peace in the ninja world!

"Let's set off at a suitable time. Anyway, we've already informed Minato and the others in advance, so it's not a big deal."

Thinking of this, the third generation no longer had the idea of ​​"interrogating" his two foolish sons.

He naturally needed to make a series of preparations before going out, and he also needed to coordinate well with the ANBU members searching for Tsunade ahead.

"Alright, you two go and get some rest."

Thinking of this, the third generation shook his head helplessly and then spoke to his two foolish sons.

"Yes."

The two brothers immediately showed expressions of relief, and then they quickly ran away from his sight.

"Um?"

But as soon as the two of them left, the Third Generation frowned immediately.

"What was I yelling at them for again?"

"Oh, my book!"

After a moment's thought, the Third Generation immediately remembered why he had lost his temper that night.

It's just that Asuma's return disrupted my book-finding routine!

That book is a collector's edition; he went to great lengths to get his hands on it, and he has kept it very well all these years.

"Could it really not be him who took it?"

The third generation felt a little depressed when they recalled the innocent expression on their eldest son's face.

Could it be that I hid it so well that I couldn't find it at all?

The Third Hokage had no idea that Asuma had been secretly watching him the whole time he was leaving.

And Asuma is now somewhat drenched in sweat—

"What?!"

Inside the Mizukage's office in Kirigakure.

Obito and Black Zetsu were both stunned as they looked at the letter from the Land of Rain.

Ever since Kirigakure was completely wiped out by Hagoromo and his group, Obito and Black Zetsu have been focusing their efforts on restoring Kirigakure.

"Even the Kaleidoscope Sharingan is afraid of a large force, especially since the enemy has three pairs of Pairs and is backed by Konoha. Without strong power, it's impossible to resist."

With Black Zetsu constantly and patiently reinforcing Obito's ideology, he did indeed begin to plan something in Kirigakure.

Although he really wanted to wipe out the Taketori clan, after all, this family was really too arrogant.

But now the person he wanted to eliminate had changed; it was the so-called Grand Elder Yuan Shi, who disagreed with him on many things and seemed to be his natural adversary.

He didn't quite understand why Kirigakure, which already had a Mizukage, would create a Grand Elder with power comparable to the Mizukage.

Moreover, this guy actually has quite a few supporters, which Obito sees as an absolute obstacle to his control of Kirigakure.

If Black Zetsu hadn't kept stopping him and clearly told him that there were some things he couldn't do rashly, and that the impact of what Haori had done hadn't yet subsided.

Otherwise, he would find a suitable night to properly visit this so-called elder.

But what he didn't expect was that while he was still completely confused, Nagato had already started causing trouble.

"Assassinating the Third Hokage was quite a clever plan."

Black Zetsu rubbed his face in pain, realizing he had underestimated Nagato.

"What's wrong?"

Obito was also terrified. Although he didn't take this so-called Third Hokage seriously, he had learned some lessons after being educated by Black Zetsu for a while.

The death of the Third Hokage will not affect Konoha's policies, but his death will inevitably bring a lot of trouble, especially potentially leading to the premature exposure of the Akatsuki organization.

But what does this have to do with scheming?

"He's testing you, seeing if you really have the ability."

While quickly thinking about how to respond, Black Zetsu began to explain.

"After all, you've made quite a few mistakes before, so he's probably already starting to have doubts about you."

So he wanted to find an opportunity to test you, to see if you really had the ability.

You doubt me?

Upon hearing these words, Obito's face darkened beneath his mask, and his fists clenched slightly involuntarily.

He didn't understand why these people would try to doubt him, and even if he had made a mistake, he had only made one mistake in front of Nagato.

"Damn Uchiha Hagoromo, damn Uchiha Hotaru, and that damn Namikaze Minato!"

After a while, Obito suddenly couldn't help but start cursing inwardly.

He especially hated Yuzhi, because the root of all this was that damned guy.

"Alright, don't be angry anymore. Just deal with it casually."

Seeing Obito like this, Black Zetsu immediately guessed that the guy was probably muttering some nonsense "bible" in his mind again.

So he simply offered a word of comfort, and then explained directly before Obito could ask any questions.

"He made his move to see your abilities, but killing the Third Hokage would not benefit anyone."

Especially since you appeared in Konoha and were eventually tracked down to Kirigakure by Uchiha Hagoromo.

Although my plan can temporarily sever your ties with Kirigakure, and Konoha will avoid causing trouble in Kirigakure to prevent some problems.

But if you act too erratically, you'll inevitably arouse suspicion. Besides, you have some connection with Danzo. Who do you think really wants to kill the Third Hokage this time?

"Could it be Danzo?"

Obito forced himself to calm down and then asked in a low voice.

"The probability is high, but we can assume it, since he has a reason to do so."

Black Zetsu nodded and slowly explained in a hoarse voice.

"Imagine if Nagato makes a move, then the Akatsuki will definitely be targeted by Konoha, which will expose many problems."

If you assist Nagato, then many of the relationships involved will be exposed, and Danzo will probably seize on this.

However, doing nothing wouldn't be good either, since the Akatsuki was short of funds, and they had also recruited Kakuzu.

"So, what we need to do is squeeze as much funding as possible out of the people who issue these tasks?"

Obito asked a question tentatively, and Black Zetsu nodded with a smile.

"That's right, if there are tasks that can earn funds, why not do them?"

We don't care who issued the mission, all we care about is the money. As for Nagato, we can just deal with him casually.

After all, it's such a dangerous mission; unexpected things can happen. Perhaps a powerful expert from Konoha will be dispatched, or perhaps...

At this point, Hei Jue paused for a moment before speaking in a sinister tone.

"Wasn't it the experts from other villages, or even troops, passing through that area that caused the fire?"

Obito finally understood. Using them as pawns was a pipe dream. What they needed to do was squeeze every last penny out of the people who issued the mission!

If Nagato wants to see his abilities, then let Nagato see them; but if some uncontrollable accidents occur, then they can be blamed.

"We might even be hired by other villages!"

Black Zetsu finally nodded as he looked at Obito, who was no longer talking nonsense, but his spirits quickly sank again.

Because he didn't know how long Obito could maintain this honesty—

"Your body is still absorbing the power of the First Generation, and everything is moving in a positive direction."

Inside an underground base in Konoha, Orochimaru carefully examined Danzo's current situation before calmly speaking.

"However, the problem is also obvious. Without a strong enough Sharingan to suppress it, no matter how strong you are, you can't unleash its full power."

"I know."

Danzo nodded with a gloomy face as he wrapped the bandages around his body.

The experiment was conducted on him, so he naturally knew his own physical condition best. If he could, he really wanted to gouge out Uchiha Shisui's eyes!

If we're talking about the person he hated most among the Uchiha clan, it would probably be Uchiha Shisui.

Even though this guy saved him once, it was something he should do as a Konoha ninja.

This guy attacked Root twice in a row. Even though he didn't physically harm him, he insulted, threatened, and even sabotaged his plans, which is unforgivable.

If he didn't have the Mangekyou Sharingan, and if he hadn't been protected by the Hokage, he would have already obtained those eyes!

"But it'll be soon. As long as Hiruzen gets out and is surrounded and killed, then..."

Danzo muttered to himself, then stopped thinking about it. He had prepared a lot for this operation.

"Speaking of which, I haven't seen Ryoma Aburame lately. Where did he go?"

While packing up his experimental equipment, Orochimaru was thinking about how to take more advantage of Danzo, so he found an excuse to speak.

"He naturally has his own things to do; after all, he is a member of the Root."

Danzo felt a little wary, but he still spoke calmly.

"Indeed, the importance of the roots is unparalleled."

Orochimaru licked his lips, but he was also puzzled. Root had been destroyed twice already, so what else was there to do?

However, he was too lazy to ask. He would naturally find out some things later, and since he couldn't convince Aburame Ryoma, he would naturally find other reasons.

"As expected, you are the one who understands Konoha best, just like me. Without Root, Konoha will be unable to move forward!"

Danzo glanced at Orochimaru, clearly agreeing with Orochimaru's idea.

However, the reconstruction of the roots did not go smoothly, which made Danzo very dissatisfied.

"Take your time, after all, you still have some nascent talent."

Orochimaru chuckled, then pointed to Itachi Uchiha, who was training hard outside.

"This kid might just surprise everyone in the future."

"That's inevitable."

Danzo nodded; the kid's talent indeed pleased him greatly.

Not only did he awaken the Sharingan at such a young age, but he has now improved it further, reaching the two-tomoe state!

This absolutely broke the record for the speed at which the Sharingan could be improved within the Uchiha clan.

Neither Uchiha Hagoromo, Uchiha Shisui, nor Uchiha Hibari are as fast as him. Given time, he may be able to surpass all three of them!

Yuzhi probably never imagined that seeing Itachi's housewarming party would actually improve his Sharingan.

"However, it doesn't seem like this is a good thing for him."

Orochimaru chuckled and shook his head as he watched the young Uchiha Itachi dart and weave through the training sessions, which seemed to be torturing him.

"Having potential also requires a gradual approach. While forcibly developing talent may allow it to be realized sooner, it may also lead to some problems."

Although Konoha's records seem to never mention any problems with the Uchiha clan, in the ninja world, bloodline clans do share a common issue.

"You mean..."

Danzo frowned upon hearing this, and after thinking about it seriously for a moment, he asked.

"A bloodline disease?"

"That's right."

Orochimaru nodded, his voice becoming somewhat hoarse.

"That's right, it's a bloodline disease. Once it breaks out, it can be very deadly."

Orochimaru spoke very seriously, though he didn't know if what he said was right or wrong, but it was indeed a problem that bloodline clans needed to face.

If Danzo takes it seriously, he can extract some benefits from it and make his village develop faster.

However, Danzo was stunned when he heard this, and a sentence popped into his mind the next moment.

Is there really such a good thing?

Itachi Uchiha did indeed grow extremely fast, and his talent and skill were outstanding, but Danzo now hated the Uchiha clan to the core.

Furthermore, after learning about the relationship between Wood Release and the Sharingan, his desire to control the Sharingan became even stronger.

Therefore, he both loved and hated Itachi Uchiha. He was always worried that if this guy's talent was too high, what if he changed his mind in the future?

After all, the Uchiha clan members are all mentally unstable, and no one can be sure when this guy will go crazy.

If there is a bloodline disease

"He's not that fragile."

Danzo made up his mind that Itachi Uchiha's training volume was not enough. He was so young and small, how could he rest so easily?

If you don't fully unleash their potential, how will you compete with those three lunatics, Uchiha Haori and the others?

"Forehead"

Orochimaru was stunned; he truly hadn't expected such an outcome.

He even thought that he could solve Itachi Uchiha's problem, so he could scam some funding and also get in touch with Itachi Uchiha.

However, this is not a big deal. After all, given the speed at which Danzo is digging his own grave, that day is probably not far off.

"Orochimaru, do you have any way to further and faster unlock Itachi Uchiha's potential?"

Suddenly, Danzo asked a question that surprised Orochimaru.

It seems that Danzo is extremely distrustful of Itachi Uchiha!

"There is a way, but it will come at a price."

Orochimaru readily agreed, a smile appearing on his face.

"He's too young. Unleashing his full potential requires special medications and methods to ensure his body doesn't develop any problems."

At this point, Orochimaru clearly noticed Danzo's slight frown, so he lowered his voice and added a sentence.

"At least on the surface, there shouldn't be any problem, but the human body is like an Aquarius, Lord Danzo, do you understand?"

"Of course I understand."

Danzo's expression instantly returned to calm, and he even closed his eyes and sighed.

"But for the sake of Konoha, some things need to be sacrificed, and I think he will understand."

As ninjas, we strive for a life as vibrant as summer flowers and a death as serene as autumn leaves.

Who could refuse the chance to serve Konoha sooner?

"I understand, Lord Danzo."

Orochimaru nodded, but in his heart he also thought: Thank you, Lord Danzo.

He felt no guilt whatsoever; in fact, he felt that Danzo should thank him!

"Thank you, and thank you for your hard work, Orochimaru."

As expected, Danzo looked at Orochimaru seriously and said.

"You will be the future Hokage's assistant in Konoha!"

"Then thank you very much, Lord Danzo."

Orochimaru didn't care at all, and frowned slightly as he watched Danzo turn to leave.

"Lord Danzo, there is one more thing we need to discuss."

"What's wrong?"

Danzo suddenly felt a pang of unease; that familiar feeling of "scamming for funding" had returned.

"Medications for unlocking potential and maintaining physical condition are not cheap."

"."

"Even I would have to put in a lot of effort, and all the funds I have have been used for experiments for Lord Danzo, so..."

"."

-

"Are you ready?"

"Um."

Inside an underground laboratory of the Uchiha clan, Haori looked at Hikaru and asked a question. Hikaru glanced at Haori warily before nodding.

Even Shisui, standing beside her, sensed a wariness in her eyes—

This seems to be a way of guarding against perverted gazes.

Furthermore, Hikari's attire was somewhat off; although she still wore that slightly retro Uchiha long robe, she paired it with a cape.

She would cover herself completely with a cloak if there was nothing wrong with it, even when the weather got cold, but she was so strong that she didn't need to.

unless………

"Why are you blushing? Is it hot in here?"

Yuri looked at Hikari with a sense of helplessness, and seeing Shisui like this made her both annoyed and amused.

This kid is probably really thinking about some random, inexplicable things this time, right?

"I'm fine, senior."

Shisui immediately shook his head, then forced himself to stop thinking about these messy things and instead curiously looked around the laboratory.

Despite being called a laboratory, this place is more like a simple rest area and training ground.

Although this place has some medical supplies, they are pitifully scarce, but it is fully equipped with sofas, chairs and the like.

Besides, the open space behind it seems more like a place for people to practice their skills; it doesn't look like a laboratory at all.

Yuri agreed to let Shisui begin injecting White Zetsu cells, so naturally she had to make preparations.

Their original plan was to wait until they had fully absorbed the essence before letting Shisui join them.

However, considering that their injection amounts may differ, starting the hydration process earlier is not out of the question.

Just then, Haori and Hikari made good progress in their studies of the Six Paths Technique, and Hikari also wanted to try to master natural chakra again.

Therefore, Yuri invited Shisui along as well, partly to ease the awkwardness between him and Hikaru.

"Asma, that bastard."

Asuma's book really brought bad luck to Yuzhi, making him look like a pervert just by looking at him.

Of course, he also knew that some of his quirks might be considered unusual in this era.

Out of place!

"How could he be a pervert?"

Yuzhi mentally complained, but the book was still quite interesting; however, now was not the time to think about such things.

"Now that you're ready, give me your hand."

"oh."

Hikaru hesitated for a moment, then reached out her hand, and Hagoromo didn't stand on ceremony and took her hand in his.

"Have you remembered what I taught you?"

"Um"

"Then stop overthinking, concentrate, and use the methods I've taught you to control and master these forces, understand?"

"it is good."

Looking into Hikaru's eyes, Haori nodded slightly, and then a strange power suddenly erupted from his body.

Standing to the side, Shisui had no idea what was going on, but the appearance of this aura instantly brought his thoughts back to Kirigakure.

"What a magical feeling! Is this a power unique to you, senior?"

Back in Kirigakure, Shisui had already sensed a power close to nature within Hagoromo's Susanoo.

However, he didn't know what this power was, and Yuzhi's exaggerated performance made him overlook it.

But now it seems that this is probably an ultimate power that Senior Hagoromo has mastered!

However, he did not make a sound at this moment, but quietly walked to the laboratory door and stood guard.

This power was shown to him, which clearly demonstrated a level of trust in him, and he had to repay it with action.

"How does it feel?"

Yuzhi was naturally aware of Shisui's movements, and while he nodded inwardly, he paid even more attention to Hikaru's situation.

"It's alright, I can handle it."

Hikaru pursed her lips and looked at Hagoromo, speaking softly.

"You can increase the intensity a bit, I'm fine with it."

Yuzhi didn't speak but nodded slightly, though he had already begun to increase the intensity of his injection.

The power of the Six Paths Technique is extraordinary. With it as the foundation for controlling natural chakra, light energy can indeed better withstand these powers.

Previously, when Haori infused the current amount of chakra, Hikari was already struggling to withstand it, but now she seems to be without any problems.

However, this is also largely due to Hagoromo's continuous refinement through the "Sage Mode Training Method," which ultimately allowed him to completely break free from the "Myoboku Sage Mode."

There are all sorts of magical arts, but normally, you need a medium to learn them.

For example, in the original manga, Naruto used toad oil to absorb the natural energy dissipating in the air.

Such training will give the user's Sage Mode obvious toad characteristics.

Another example is the Snake Sage Technique of Ryuchi Cave, which also gives the user's Sage Mode obvious snake-like characteristics.

This all illustrates one point: these immortal techniques are actually best suited to the races that discovered them, not to humans.

When Yuki first arrived, she already possessed the Sage Mode, but she added an unnecessary training method. At first, he thought it was just to remove the traces of Mount Myōboku.

It now seems that removing traces is only one aspect; the most important point is actually to make this Sage Mode more suitable for human use!

This has been proven by the fact that when Hagoromo used this Sage Mode, there was no trace of Mount Myōboku, and it suited her perfectly.

Such a Sage Chakra infused into light naturally wouldn't cause too many problems; the only question is whether she can control it.

"Um?"

As the natural chakra intensified, Hikaru suddenly frowned.

Such power was indeed somewhat beyond her capacity, but she did not speak, instead silently trying to control it.

As time passed, the aura of natural chakra grew stronger, and Hikaru's face began to turn pale.

Upon seeing this, Yuzhi frowned, and then he tried to draw away the chakra.

However, at that very moment, a strange power condensed within the light!

hum-

As a slight ripple appeared in the air, a peculiar eyeshadow appeared on Guang's face.

This eyeshadow, like the haori, is a light purple, and the aura of light suddenly changed at this moment.

It was somewhat different from the unfamiliar feeling before, but it also seemed somewhat...

kind?

"It seems I've succeeded."

After a while, Hikari opened her eyes slightly and looked at the haori staring blankly at her. She said softly.

"Yes, that's right."

Yuri nodded, then seemed to snap out of his daze and smiled.

"Congratulations! After all your hard work, you've finally achieved results."

"Thanks."

Hikari spoke softly. Having just completed Sage Mode, she didn't immediately become energetic like Haori, nor did she forcibly seize power like Madara Uchiha.

Even though she was somewhat weak, she could still feel the abundant power within her body, and she seemed to have become more sensitive to everything around her.

"Is this what Haori meant by 'Sage Mode'...?"

Guang thought to himself, this power is truly incredible. Its amplification of himself is comprehensive and terrifying. Even his perception seems to have been enhanced!

What struck her as odd was that after activating this mode, she suddenly felt that Yuzhi seemed to have become even closer to her.

Not only was she friendly, but she could also feel a very unique, benevolent feeling emanating from Yuri.

This feeling captivated her and brought her immense comfort.

"Why are you being so polite with me?"

Yuzhi reached out and gently wiped the sweat from her cheeks before revealing a smile.

"You're not angry anymore?"

"snort"

Hikaru didn't refuse the haori, but she did give a soft hum.

"I'm not angry."

"Yeah?"

Haori raised an eyebrow, then looked at Hikari with amusement.

"Then why have you been avoiding me for the past few days? You know perfectly well that the book was a gift from someone else, and I haven't even read it yet."

Guang didn't say anything, but her face started to flush again. She still vividly remembered that revealing cover.

She glared at Yuzhi fiercely, but soon realized that Yuzhi had suddenly picked her up.

"What are you doing?!"

"Shouldn't you be resting right now? I specially asked someone to get you a sofa so you can rest better there."

Haori gave Hikaru a strange look; he felt that Hikaru's reaction was a bit too much.

He also noticed that he felt an unusual closeness to Hikaru after he activated Sage Mode.

However, he guessed that this might be related to chakra, since he used natural chakra that he had refined.

"Get some rest. You need to get used to this power."

Yuzhi placed the light on the sofa before speaking softly.

"It would be best to see how long this state can be maintained, so that we can also estimate how long it can last during combat."

"Um."

Guang nodded.

"Also, don't look at me like I'm a pervert all day long. I'm not."

Seeing that Hikari seemed to be able to communicate, Hagoromo immediately pressed his advantage.

"Go and deal with the water-stopping matter quickly."

Hikaru glared at Haori again, seemingly unwilling to discuss the topic at all.

Yuri didn't mind, as this was already a good result. However, she did need to deal with some issues related to the water.

Have you read that book?

Just as Haori turned around, Hikaru suddenly asked a question.

"Of course not."

Haori replied almost subconsciously, but Hikaru stared straight at him for a while before turning her head away, blushing, and covering her face with her cloak.

Haori answered very naturally, and even in Sage Mode, Hikaru didn't seem to notice anything wrong.

This relieved Guang, but also made him a little curious.

"Thankfully, he really didn't look at it, but..."

Doesn't he have any interest at all?

-

"Your current state will likely last for a week or longer. Try to absorb as much of this energy as possible."

"Yes, senior."

While Hikaru is still resting, Hagoromo has already taken care of Shisui's situation.

Practice makes perfect, and he handled the first injection of hydrochloric acid with ease.

This time, however, he didn't use "God of Heaven" to simulate it; he relied entirely on his experience. But Shisui didn't seem to have any problems.

Apart from feeling hot and flushed all over, everything else is fine.

"Get some rest, I'll keep an eye on you."

Patting Shisui on the shoulder and telling him to sit down and rest, Yuri turned and walked towards the sofa.

Hikaru seemed to have fallen asleep, or perhaps she simply didn't dare to see Haori, but fortunately Haori didn't seem to mind.

He needs to consider other things now, especially regarding his pupil technique.

"I have mastered the Divine Heaven technique very well. Although I haven't used it in actual combat, I should make the most of it."

Yuzhi pondered to himself, and then his eyes turned crimson, and a strange kaleidoscope quietly appeared in his eyes.

"Apart from that, Kamui's progress seems a bit unbelievable."

As he pondered, the area around the haori began to distort slightly, and in his eyes, a small world had already formed!

Perhaps it was because he directly entered Obito's Kamui dimension that he gained a new understanding of the power of Kamui.

This greatly enhanced his talent for absorbing energy, and at this point, he was able to directly create his own alternate dimension!

Moreover, he seemed to sense that he could travel using divine power.

However, he hasn't fully absorbed Obito's talent yet, which limits his mobility.

"Also, the area of ​​my Divine Power Space doesn't seem to be that large."

Looking at the space before her, Yuzhi couldn't help but ponder to herself.

Although Obito's space wasn't large, he estimated that it should be enough to fit a Nine-Tails inside.

As for Yuzhi, fitting him into his new home would probably be just right.

"The difference here is quite significant."

Yuzhi sighed. After all, it wasn't his original power, and it hadn't been there when he opened his eyes.

Compared to his ability to conceal himself, his ability to break through and distort space is exceptionally powerful.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to break through Obito's space directly, allowing himself to successfully enter using the Flying Thunder God Technique.

"However, I've already achieved some success, and if I combine it with the Flying Thunder God Technique..."

For some reason, a mischievous smile appeared on Yuzhi's face.

Although he always gets beaten up every time Obito comes to cause trouble, after being disgusted by Obito so many times, he should take the opportunity to strike back with a heavy blow!

Now, he can completely impersonate Obito, and not only Obito, he can also impersonate Madara Uchiha and Fugaku Uchiha.

Given this, he's already considering whether to appropriately split up the forces he's showcasing and create a group of people all disguised as Uchiha.

After all, he still wanted to obtain the chakra of the tailed beasts, not to mention he was also eyeing the dragon vein chakra of the Land of Wind.
