Projection magicians starting from the Uchiha clan

"Take them, the Four-Tails and Five-Tails are inside." Iori waved his hand lightly and took out several scrolls from the Gate of Babylon, which contained the limbs of the Four-Tails and Five-Tails.

After defeating Han and Roshi, Iori separated and sealed the tailed beasts inside them, awaiting further research and use.

Judging from Killer Bee, the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki during the Fourth Shinobi World War, even if it's not the Nine-Tails, a ninja can become a Jinchuriki simply by sealing a Tailed Beast's limbs; it's just uncertain how long that would last.

Since there were no examples, Iori didn't know whether a ninja whose tailed beast limbs were sealed would die like a jinchūriki after the tailed beast's chakra was exhausted, and he didn't intend to waste the few tailed beast limbs he had.

He originally planned to keep them for his own research, but since Orochimaru needed them, Iori gave him most of the tailed beast limbs.

If Orochimaru can glean something from this, perhaps he can pass it on to his teacher and teammates for self-defense.

Orochimaru's eyes lit up as he picked up the scroll and placed it inside the special barrier of the laboratory.

"We've already acquired four of the nine tailed beasts. As for the Nine-Tails' chakra, once Minato becomes Hokage, it won't be difficult to get it from you given your relationship."

His expression was somewhat happy, like an old farmer looking at his melon field before the harvest.

"It seems I'll soon have the chance to collect all nine tailed beasts. I wonder how the nine tailed beasts can be restored to the ten-tailed beast. I'm really looking forward to it, hahaha."

He couldn't help but laugh. Although Iori only told him about the connection between the tailed beasts and the Ten-Tails, she still kept the matter of the Ten-Tails' body a secret.

But just knowing that the nine tailed beasts were derived from the Ten-Tails was enough to fill Orochimaru with enthusiasm.

Iori looked at Orochimaru, who was caught up in a frenzy, with a sense of helplessness, and hesitated whether to leave first.

However, Orochimaru quickly recovered from his frenzy and looked at Iori, saying, "Then leave it to me. But Iori-kun, technological progress cannot be driven by me alone."

"I remember you said you wanted to gather research talent from the ninja world and train your own scholars from scratch. Are you doing that now?"

Orochimaru, having turned against the Heavenly Generals, began urging his superiors to speed up their work.

Iori waved her hand and said, "It's being done, it's being done, I've already started working on it (referring to the newly created folder)."

Iori didn't completely lie to him. She entrusted the training of newcomers to the Senju clan, as the Senju clan, which has many teachers, is more likely to discover promising talents.

Meanwhile, Iori also has his eye on potential candidates in the ninja world: Sasori of the Red Sand, Shinno, and Hiruko are all good choices.

After giving instructions, Iori turned and left. This time, she shouldn't be gone for too long, and she might even make it in time for Minato's coronation ceremony.

Chapter 137 Vimana and Flying to the Land of Grass

Before leaving, Iori left a note for Shisui and the others, and then slowly walked out of the village.

On the way, Iori encountered a group of ninjas returning from the battlefield. Their faces were filled with ease and joy as they walked with their families and friends, strolling through the streets of Konoha.

Having survived the brutal war, all they wanted was to enjoy a peaceful life.

Now they no longer have to live in constant fear of enemy attacks, nor do they have to worry about whether they will see the sun rise again tomorrow.

When they noticed Iori, they immediately bent down and greeted him respectfully.

The soldiers at the front lines weren't fools. The propaganda from above, which avoided the real issues, could only fool the ninjas in the rear. But when the soldiers at the front lines saw the majestic giant, they naturally understood who the real hero was.

If it weren't for Minato saving countless people on the battlefield, leading them to repel the Land of Lightning and rush to the aid of the Land of Earth, his prestige would not have been so high.

If Iori himself had no intention of taking credit, they probably would have protested in secret long ago.

As for why Iori doesn't fight for the job, it's simple. Right now, the probability of competing with Minato is 55% or 64%, but it will be 100% in two years. She can also clean up the bugs while she's at it, so isn't that more worthwhile?

Iori gave them a gentle and kind smile, and under the influence of magic, the dormant memories in her mind were brought to the fore, and she quickly began to search for relevant information.

"Koichi Ishimura, I remember you were a Chunin under my command when we were in the Land of Earth. How's your relationship with your girlfriend? You should be getting married soon."

"Hey, yes, we're getting married in about three days."

"Then I probably won't be able to attend. I have a mission that requires me to leave the village. I'll have Shisui deliver the wedding gift and blessings. I'm sorry."

"You're too kind, I'm very grateful."

“Funahashi Shido, how is your father’s health? I remember you said you were very worried about his health when we were at the camp.”

"Thank you for your concern. His health has been cured by the pharmacist in the medical department."

"Mr. XX"......

The ninjas were incredibly excited to hear that Iori, whom they had only met a few times, could remember their names and even tell them about their families.

Iori seemed to see a string of loyalty +1 +1 +1 appear above their heads.

As the crowd gradually gathered, Iori said apologetically, "I have an urgent mission and must leave now. I'm so sorry."

The ninjas repeatedly said they dared not, and then quickly made way for him.

[Wow, Liu Bei's method is really effective! Although my political skills are terrible, it feels perfectly adequate here, since my confidence comes from my strength.]

The Great Han Succubus's Great Memory Technique is indeed incredibly powerful, and the military strategist's training techniques can indeed make soldiers willing to die for them. Iori only used it briefly, and it seems that people in the ninja world are quite receptive to it.

After casually boosting the favorability of some lower-ranking ninjas, Iori arrived outside the village.

His gaze swept over the ANBU members who were silently following in the distance, and Iori curled his lip, revealing a hint of disdain.

"Vimana!" As Iori spoke, a huge golden ripple spread out in the sky, and a strangely shaped fighter jet flew out of the Gate of Babylon.

That was Vimana, the golden ship that Iori had stolen from Gilgamesh.

-----------------

Vimana

The throne of the king that soars through the sky. A radiant "boat" (Radiant Boat) formed of gold and emeralds, capable of flying through the heavens.

Flying vehicles described in the two great ancient Indian epic poems, the Ramayana and the Mahabharata.

Powered by solar energy generated from mercury-fueled solar crystals, it can fly at high speeds, defying the laws of physics. It possesses immense offensive power and is equipped with various Noble Phantasm systems, including ancient nuclear warheads and other advanced weaponry.

-----------------

Using the Flying Thunder God mark, Iori instantly teleported to the Golden Throne. He sat down gracefully, took out a drink from the treasury, and began to drink.

Because Iori didn't leave any coordinates in the Land of Grass, she couldn't teleport there and had to walk there herself.

In the past, due to insufficient chakra, Iori dared not use Vimana casually. Although the consumption of the Noble Phantasm was very low after it was projected, the energy still had to be burned by projecting it himself.

After receiving the Hashirama cells, Iori became incredibly arrogant regarding chakra consumption.

What's with all this talk about chakra? I'm chakra now too. It's all about bloodline. I'm a bloodline ninja, a superior being. You're not convinced?

Iori's mission to leave the village this time was twofold: firstly, to find the remnants of the vortex, and secondly, to leave his coordinates scattered around for future teleportation.

If there is enough time, then go and find Kaguya Kimimaro, Haku, and Guren.

Kimimaro is probably still imprisoned by the Kaguya clan, it's unknown whether Haku has started wandering, and Guren has probably lost her parents and home.

Driven by solar energy, Vimana soared into the sky, heading towards the Land of Grass.

Sunlight shines on its golden shell, reflecting a dazzling light, like a morning star in the sky.

In the distance, the ANBU ninjas could only helplessly watch the airship gradually disappear into the distance.

Then, one of them, feeling guilty, reported Iori's whereabouts to Hiruzen Sarutobi.

"I see, I understand. Thank you for your hard work," the third generation said helplessly, puffing on his pipe.

Iori keeps coming up with new things, which is dazzling. Although the Anbu has been working hard, they have not been able to achieve any results.

Although they couldn't monitor the Uchiha clan's territory, they would keep a close watch on Iori and the others from a distance once they left the clan's territory, recording their movements.

The people in the Uchiha clan's territory were helpless in this regard. After all, that's how the Anbu work. As long as they keep their distance and don't step into the clan's territory, Iori and the others can't interfere.

However, since Iori became the clan head, the members of the guard have frequently visited the shops of the Sarutobi, Mitomon, and Utatane families, and have been requesting investigations every few days.

The security team's goal wasn't really to find out any problems, but simply to create trouble for them; their main objective was to annoy each other.

As for the Shimura clan, since they are few in number and rarely show their faces, they are not a target of the security team. After all, they don't do business, and the security team can't just come to their door to cause trouble.

"Sigh, teacher, I hope I won't live to see the moment when the Uchiha clan becomes Hokage!"

The Third Hokage sighed helplessly. Although he was the one with the least prejudice against the Uchiha among the F4, even he found it difficult to accept an Uchiha Hokage.

However, the situation in Konoha is now completely out of his control, and all he can do is try his best to support Minato.

Chapter 138 Finding Karin's Parents

Iori had never flown a fighter jet in either of his lives, so this was his first time. He piloted the plane freely in the air, making it circle in an S-shape and a B-shape.

As Iori flew, she launched her Flying Thunder God Marks into uninhabited areas, activating her teleportation points in various places.

Vimana was moving extremely fast; he felt that he hadn't been playing for very long before he was about to reach the Land of Grass.

Seeing that she was about to enter the territory of the Grass Country, Iori slowed down the speed of the airship and prepared to land.

Iori hovered the flying boat in the air, then lightly leaped to the ground, touching the ground with two fingers: "Chakra Sensing".

As he cast his spell, an invisible force spread outwards from him, covering an area of ​​thousands of miles in radius.

However, after a careful search, Iori did not find any suspicious chakra.

"It seems to be not nearby. Let's check it slowly, taking it in units of thousands of miles."

He scratched his head, his brow furrowed slightly, and pondered to himself:

"It seems things aren't as simple as I thought. If she's not within my perception range, that's fine; but if she used a sealing technique to seal her chakra, that would be troublesome."

Iori thought for a moment, then formed hand seals: "Wood Release: Multiple Wood Clone Technique".

Ten wooden figures emerged from Iori's body and subsequently became identical to Iori.

"Scan the map over and over again with your chakra senses," Iori commanded.

"Yes!" the clones answered in unison, and then dispersed according to the planned routes.

Grass Village is just a small ninja village after all, so Iori is not worried that his clone will encounter any difficult situations.

After completing the deployment of the wooden clone, Iori jumped back into Vimona's cockpit.

He sat on the golden throne, relaxed his body, and soon drifted off to sleep.

The wood clones scattered and continued to investigate the Land of Grass. Their undisguised actions quickly alerted the ninjas of Grass Village.

The village of Kusagakure is currently divided into two factions: one is the pro-war faction, Kusagakure, which desires to revitalize the village and advocates for tough measures; the other is the pro-war faction, Kusagakure, which opposes war and pursues peace.

Currently, the [Grass Fruit] dominates the market, while the [Grass Flower] is gradually being marginalized.

The ninjas of the [Grass Fruit] were on patrol when they noticed such a significant fluctuation in chakra and headed towards the wood clone.
