The Master of Konoha's Legacy

If you want to eat meat, besides the almost inexhaustible fish in the river, you have to go to a very far place to hunt.

But distant places hold unknown dangers, and there is a possibility of encountering terrifying monsters.

The little fish stuck out its tongue and licked the saliva that had dripped from the corner of its mouth.

I've been eating fish every day lately, it's time for a change.

"Splash~"

The thick white fog obscured their vision, and the little fish could only rely on sound to make its way.

Gradually, Xiaoyu's brows furrowed.

Wild animals wouldn't drink water for this long. Could it be that one of the village aunties came to take a bath?

With that thought in mind, Xiaoyu gripped the bone spur, lowered her body, and slowly walked toward the source of the sound.

Gradually, the surrounding white fog thinned, and the visibility became clearer.

The little fish found itself out of the jungle and on the other side of the cliff.

Using the jagged rocks as cover, the little fish stealthily peeked out from between the rocks.

Ahead, the view opened up to a vast hot spring, with one edge of the hot spring bordering a cliff.

The next moment, Xiaoyu was completely stunned.

There was only one thought in my mind.

I never knew human skin could be so white and so beautiful.

Long, jet-black hair, a strong, muscular back, and a strikingly handsome profile...

Man...man...

The figure seemed unaware of Xiaoyu's spying.

He leaned against the edge of the hot spring, one elbow resting on the edge, his fist slightly clenched, lazily supporting his temple.

With each breath, the thin mist surged and billowed, whether it was resting or admiring the magnificent sea of ​​clouds in the distance, it was hard to tell.

The little fish's cheeks were flushed, and it seemed to have forgotten how to breathe.

My rational mind told me that I shouldn't continue watching at this moment.

But instinct compelled him to stay put, his eyes wide open.

A strange, inexplicable surge of emotion welled up inside me, gradually eroding my reason.

"Splash~"

Time seemed to have passed in the blink of an eye.

The figure in the hot spring moved.

With her hands gently resting on the edge, she slowly stood up from the water, supporting her body.

Streams of fluid flowed down the contours of the muscles.

The drops splashed into the hot spring.

It was so utterly undisguised...

Upon seeing this scene, the little fish behind the boulder instinctively opened its mouth, only to feel an overwhelming masculine aura rushing towards it.

A burning sensation in front of my nose, followed by a wave of dizziness.

The sound of a heavy object falling to the ground rang out...

A flash of red light disappeared in the thin mist.

A deep, magnetic whisper echoed across the mountaintop.

"A primitive woman in the midst of mating."

[Chapter 423. Anatomical Study of Language Barriers]

In the misty lake, the little fish faintly heard footsteps approaching.

Fortunately, Xiaoyu was in good physical condition, and after only a few breaths of unconsciousness, she slowly opened her eyes.

What comes into view is a clear blue sky and a gentle, smiling face.

"hu~hu~"

The little fish's breathing became rapid, showing signs of fainting again.

Then Uchiha Tonan bent down, raised his hand which was glowing with fluorescent green light, and gently pressed it on Xiaoyu's forehead.

The little fish felt a cool sensation flow from its forehead to its entire body, so comfortable that it almost groaned out loud.

"I'm...sorry..."

But the little fish, now back to normal, suddenly sat up straight and stammered.

Because Uchiha Tonan was still bending over, the two were very close.

The foul stench hit him, but Uchiha Tonan showed no disgust whatsoever, maintaining a faint smile on his face.

On the contrary, Xiaoyu noticed how close the two were, and lowered her head shyly, muttering to herself.

However, Uchiha Tonan couldn't understand a single word she said.

It's unclear whether this is a dialect from a very remote area, or simply because the language of this era is completely incomprehensible to later generations.

But after listening intently for a while, Uchiha Tonan looked at the girl before him with interest in his eyes and said leisurely:

"We don't understand the language, but it sounds a lot like birdsong. I wonder how far civilization has progressed in this era."

Have the languages ​​spoken in different regions been standardized?

After saying that, Uchiha Tonan pulled Xiaoyu up, then quickly took out medical gloves from his ninja tool bag, put them on, and began to stroke Xiaoyu's skull from top to bottom.

When Uchiha Tonan's hand touched Xiaoyu, Xiaoyu's brain was already buzzing, and she was in a daze.

This wasn't because Uchiha Tonan used any ninjutsu or genjutsu; it was purely Xiaoyu's own reaction.

It's not that Xiaoyu is a lovesick girl; after all, there are only so many men in the village, and most of them are unkempt and exposed to the elements all day long.

Uchiha Tonan, a man who would be considered handsome even in later generations, would be absolutely stunning in this era in terms of looks.

Having held a high position for many years, his strength is unparalleled in the ninja world, and he exudes the aura of a powerful figure, coupled with his gentle and refined demeanor.

For a naive and inexperienced girl like this, it's no different from drugs.

While she was in a daze, Xiaoyu suddenly jolted awake and realized that Uchiha Tunan's hands had touched her sensitive areas.

"What...what are you going to do...?"

The little fish didn't resist; she merely bit her lip, her body tense to the extreme.

Uchiha Tonan couldn't understand her words, so he ignored her and instead analyzed the situation with a serious expression:

"His physical abilities are about the same as a genin, and he doesn't look like he's received systematic training."

It must have been the work of natural forces. Based on this analysis, both humans and beasts in this era were several levels stronger than those in later generations.

"It's truly amazing, an extraordinary power that's practically a cure-all."

"Please...please stop...don't..."

Xiaoyu's face flushed red, and her body trembled as if she were about to lose her balance.

"The skeletal structure and number are largely the same, but the internal organs function very powerfully."

At this moment, Uchiha Tunan was still analyzing as he slowly squatted down, his hands kneading and pressing.

After a long while, Xiaoyu felt Uchiha Tunan's hands leave her body, breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at the man in front of her who was constantly rummaging through the bag at his waist, her heart filled with complicated emotions.

"Huff huff~ huff~ woo woo woo......."

The little fish, still panting heavily, suddenly widened its eyes and realized that the other person had put two fingers into its mouth without it noticing.

The nimble fingers twirled inside the mouth, teasing the tongue.

Soon, Uchiha Tonan withdrew his finger, pulling out a long, thin, glistening strand as he did so.

Uchiha Tonan wiped his fingers on a piece of glass, then took off his medical gloves.

His eyes opened slightly, and immediately, grotesque, twisted blue veins bulged around his eyes.

Use the white of your eye to observe the liquid on the glass slide.

The unusual sight of Uchiha Tonan's eyes startled Xiaoyu, but seeing that Uchiha Tonan was intently staring at a transparent square and did not show any unusual behavior, she noticed that he was not doing anything unusual.

Little Fish blinked, looking at Uchiha Tonan with a curious expression.

"The effects of bacteria in bodily fluids and those bacteria in later generations can be matched up."

These bacteria are simply more resilient to survive.

Uchiha Tonan only briefly observed it and, seeing that there was nothing significant, cleaned the transparent square with disinfectant and put it back into his ninja tool pouch.

Looking up at the little fish with its curious eyes, he stroked his chin and murmured:

"Let's do a quick study first."

The concentration of natural energy here is so high, I'll take this opportunity to cultivate for a while.

I'll take my time to learn more about this era later; I have plenty of time.

Seeing that Uchiha Tunan was staring at her, Xiaoyu couldn't help but cautiously speak:

Are you from outside?

"What kind of wild animal fur are you wearing? It looks so beautiful."

"Can't you understand me? Did you grow up in the wild?"

.......

However, the little fish did not receive a reply.

Uchiha Tonan smiled and reached out his hand towards Xiaoyu.

Looking at the smooth, delicate hand in front of him, Xiaoyu, as if possessed, slowly raised her hand and placed it on Uchiha Tonan's palm.

And so, Uchiha Tonan led the little fish toward the forest beside the hot spring.
