The Master of Konoha's Legacy

Chapter 394 Reviewing Information and Rain Village Intelligence

[Chapter 395. Fukagawa Naoki's Fallacies and Heresies]

In the early hours of the morning, the entire village of Konoha was silent, and the villagers were fast asleep.

After reviewing the medical records of patients in the mental hospital, Uchiha Tonan finally selected a patient who might be of help to him.

Name: Naozai Fukawa.

Gender: Male.

Age: 39.

Patient's background: A villager from Konoha Village, he entered the Ninja Academy in his childhood. He was an excellent student but had an introverted personality.

He enjoys reading, playing chess, and daydreaming.

After graduating, he became a medical genin in Konoha. Within a year, he became the captain of the 24th medical team, responsible for leading the new batch of team members.

Cause of illness: suspected to be due to witnessing too many comrades die in battle, which gradually led to mental breakdown.

Symptoms: Frequent incoherent speech, and a penchant for lecturing other patients.

The content involves the creation of extremely lethal weapons (possibly driven by a desire to kill enemies and protect comrades with non-existent weapons).

A distorted understanding of life (possibly due to witnessing too many deaths of relatives and friends, using a flawed understanding to comfort oneself).

A misunderstanding of time (a desire to go back in time and make up for regrets).

.......

The content in parentheses is the analysis of Naosuke Fukagawa's condition by doctors at the mental hospital.

Uchiha Tonan glanced at Fukagawa Naosuke's medical record and instructed the slightly nervous head of the medical team in front of him:

“Bring him here, and I’ll try to see if I can successfully treat him.”

The head of the medical team checked the medical records, then bowed deeply to Uchiha Tonan and said, "On behalf of this patient, I thank Lord Tonan."

After saying that, he turned and left through the special passage.

Twenty minutes later, the medical squad leader led a disheveled, unshaven middle-aged man into Uchiha Tonan's office.

Uchiha Tonan waved his hand, signaling the head of the medical team to step down, before carefully examining the patient in front of him.

Naosuke Fukagawa's gaze was unfocused, and he kept muttering something to himself.

Uchiha Tonan's ear twitched slightly as he listened carefully.

"Yes, yes, yes... As long as we find this energy source, we can build a planet-destroying cannon... destroy the moon... and humanity will be... safe..."

Does this guy know that there are descendants of Hamura on the moon, or does he know that Kaguya Otsutsuki is sealed inside?

How did he know?

Uchiha Tonan's expression hardened, and he chose to continue listening.

"That way... I won't have to worry about the moon falling down and waking me up at night..."

"Cough cough~"

Uchiha Tonan's lips twitched slightly, and he coughed heavily.

However, Fukagawa Naozai completely ignored Uchiha Tonan and continued muttering to himself.

"The Land of Thunder... we should be able to find it..."

Uchiha Tonan, with an air of humility, asked, "Can we begin class now?"

Upon hearing the word "class," Fukagawa Naozai's eyes finally regained their sparkle. He stared intently at Uchiha Tonan, a foolish smile appearing on his face, and said, "Alright, today we'll talk about the structural principles of the Star Destroyer Cannon."

Uchiha Tonan looked puzzled and said, "Teacher, didn't we talk about time in the last lesson? This lesson should be about time."

"Time...time..."

After muttering a few words, Naosuke Fukagawa's expression gradually became serious, and he began to speak:

"The world is an illusion, a dream, a dream created by the collective consciousness of all life."

Uchiha Tonan noticed that Fukagawa Naozai had misspoken about the topic and gently reminded him, "Today we're talking about time."

Upon hearing this, Naosuke Fukagawa looked confused, then nodded slightly and said, "Oh, right..."

Then he continued speaking:

"The world is an illusion, a dream, a dream created by the collective consciousness of all life."

Uchiha Tonan knew he couldn't argue with a madman, so he stopped reminding him and instead went along with the other person's topic:

"This world is real, I can feel it."

Upon hearing Uchiha Tonan's rebuttal, Fukagawa Naozai's eyes suddenly gleamed. He appeared no different from a normal person and said to Uchiha Tonan in a deep voice, "How did the world come about?"

Uchiha Tonan had no idea how to solve this age-old problem; he could only rely on a conjecture he had seen on a science channel in his previous life.

“A singularity appeared in the void, and then the singularity exploded, creating the world we live in.”

Naoki Fukagawa paused for a moment and said, "Singularity? Explosion? Your idea has too many flaws."

Then let me ask you, how did this singularity you mentioned come about...?

Uchiha Tonan slowly shook his head.

Naosuke Fukagawa gave a silly smile, then became unusually serious again, and said in a mysterious tone:

"At some point, in order to find the answer, humanity or a certain civilization traveled back in time to the origin of the world."

But they found nothing there...

Only then did they realize that everything was an illusion, like a dream.

No one wants their existence to be false, so they created the world with their own hands.

Therefore, this world was created by people from the future who went back to the past.

Time forms a closed loop, which explains the creation from nothing.

When Uchiha Tonan heard Fukagawa Naozai mention time, a faint smile appeared on his face, and he nodded, saying, "A very interesting idea."

Naozai Fukagawa stood in front of Tonan Uchiha's desk, slammed his hands on the table, and leaned forward solemnly, saying:

"The resources required to create a world are too vast, so I think they have two approaches."

The first method is to move the entire world from one's original time to the origin time.

In this way, no matter how many times time loops, everything can only proceed according to its original trajectory.

If that's the case, then I would call it fate.

The second method is to possess true creative power, which means being able to create vast amounts of resources out of thin air without adhering to the principle of conservation.

At this point, Naosuke Fukagawa slowly closed his eyes, tilted his head, and softly recited:

"When I thought of this first method, I was desperate."

If everything is predetermined, then all our efforts have been in vain.

All talk of struggle and ideals is laughable.

So I pinned my hopes on the second method.

They are searching for the so-called power of creation.

I racked my brains for a very, very long time, and finally I came up with something that could potentially become the power of creation.

Suddenly, Fukagawa Naozai opened his eyes, his face filled with fanaticism, and said:

"Only something that is both illusory and real can do this."

That is the mindset of life, also known as intention.

When the will is strong enough, it can turn illusion into reality.

Although Uchiha Tonan didn't believe almost anything about Fukagawa Naozai's explanation.

But for some reason, upon hearing this, a technique suddenly popped into Uchiha Tonan's mind.

The forbidden technique of the Uchiha clan: Izanami.

A technique that can bring dreams into reality.

In mythology, Izanami and Izanagi are the creator gods.

Just as Uchiha Tonan was deep in thought, Fukagawa Naozai had already stood up straight and was pacing back and forth in the office, muttering to himself.

"But how strong must one's will be to create a world?"

That's simply impossible.

However, one day, I discovered a particularly interesting phenomenon.

You know ants, right? Each of them is an individual.

But they can actually be seen as a whole life, just rather loosely connected.

The queen ant is the brain, the worker ants are the torso, and the soldier ants are the limbs.

By the same token, could humans also be a large collective life form?

Furthermore, all life in the world is actually a collective life form, with each individual being a cell, just with different functions.

From this perspective, the will of this collective life form must be incredibly vast.

However, this collective life form is not yet powerful enough; its will is insufficient to create a world.

I suspect this collective life form is aware of its mission, which is why it instinctively strives to develop, constantly expanding and evolving its population to gain a more powerful will.

Upon hearing this, Uchiha Tonan sat up slightly.

These crazy remarks actually sound quite plausible, logically consistent, and flawless.

If it's true, then we've really struck gold this time.

But seeing Uchiha Tonan's face displaying a humble and inquisitive expression, he said softly:

"You mean that the ultimate goal of civilization's development is to go back to the past and create a world that never existed before?"

The future is the cause, and the past is the effect.
