All Heavens: Transcending Dimensions Starting with the Uchiha

Only Danzo, who served as an advisor to the village and also held sole control over Konoha's Root organization, could provide him with sufficient financial support.

If Uchiha Sō hadn't made a fortune during the Third Shinobi World War, and if the Heavenly Court's Commerce Department hadn't used this opportunity to expand its business to various parts of the Five Great Nations, he wouldn't have dared to build this new large-scale laboratory.

He hadn't originally planned to establish a large laboratory so soon, mainly because the growth of his physical body was limiting the evolution of the Sharingan.

This resulted in the Yin Release space being stuck at the final step of the Ascension Cave Heaven even after absorbing enough Yang Release chakra from Tsunade.

At this moment, the Eye of Evolution's annotation on the Mangekyou Sharingan:

[The Mangekyou Sharingan is evolving. The Yin Release dimension has absorbed enough Yang Release chakra, but due to the limitations of the user's own body, it is insufficient to contain the power of the cave after the Yin-Yang Release has been sublimated. Therefore, the evolution is paused.]

This may be the limitation of the bloodline evolution path; he was ultimately no match for Uchiha Madara and Sasuke, who were reincarnations of Indra.

Without the chakra of Indra and Ashura, the only way to break through the upper limit of bloodline is to further perfect the Six Paths bloodline.

Therefore, finding a way to fuse with the interstitial cells is imperative.

Coincidentally, he had a White Zetsu clone created by fusing Hashirama's cells at that moment.

"What remains... is enough... experimental materials..."

After thinking it over, he realized that Konoha was currently peaceful and quiet, and he wasn't Danzo, so he couldn't possibly harm him.

It seems the only option is to become a bounty hunter; I can't delegate this kind of task to others.

It's a good opportunity to make use of those rogue ninjas in the ninja world. Anyway, no one cares if they disappear.

At the same time, we should also investigate how "Xiao" is developing now.

The Heavenly Court's Commerce Department, in the Land of Rain, surprisingly failed to make contact with any high-ranking members of "Akatsuki".

Without sufficient "strength," would one ultimately fail to gain Nagato's favor?

To become a bounty hunter, Uchiha Sō must prepare a completely new identity.

Chapter 66, The Heavenly Emperor and Kakuzu

After all, the black market in the ninja world has its own unique rules of survival. They are often cautious about people of unknown origin and will not easily accept them.

Uchiha Sho naturally couldn't show his true form, so he needed a disguise, an alias that would allow him to navigate the black market with ease.

He plans to make a name for himself in the black market, collect valuable materials needed for his experiments, and make full preparations for future contact with the Akatsuki organization.

Thinking back to Kakuzu, who would later join Akatsuki, he was a renowned bounty hunter ninja.

Now that the reforms of the Konoha Police Department have been finalized, the village will enter a relatively peaceful period, which also provides Uchiha Sō with an opportunity to travel and recruit members for the Heavenly Court (go out and have some fun).

After careful consideration, Uchiha Sho took out a cloak and a divine mask of Amaterasu Omikami.

Both of these items were carefully prepared by him. After all, as the Heavenly Emperor of the Heavenly Court, he would inevitably show his prowess in the ninja world sooner or later.

Now is the perfect opportunity to establish the reputation of the Heavenly Court in the ninja world.

The cloak was entirely black, embroidered with nine majestic and powerful dragons, with gold patterns outlining the edges. The inside was inlaid with a sealing technique personally set up by Uchiha Sō, which could effectively block most detection-type ninjutsu.

The mask is the divine image of Amaterasu Ōmikoto, the sun goddess, exuding an unquestionable majesty and domineering aura.

Once dressed, Uchiha Sō's demeanor underwent a dramatic transformation.

From afar, he resembled a god-king descended from the heavens to the mortal realm, inspiring awe in all who beheld him.

"The Heavenly Emperor of the Celestial Court is about to make his appearance today. You ninja minions, prepare to welcome your king..."

Uchiha Xiang toyed with the God King Mask in his hand, a half-smile playing on his lips.

After leaving a shadow clone in the security department to handle daily affairs, Uchiha Sho transformed into the "Heavenly Emperor" and quietly left the village.

As the head of the Konoha Police Department, he already knew the secret locations of the black market within the Land of Fire like the back of his hand.

Therefore, he soon arrived at a black market closest to Konoha.

This black market appears to be an inconspicuous izakaya (Japanese pub), but it actually hides a secret.

After exchanging a common code word with the black market boss, Uchiha Sho was led to a secluded cubicle.

The walls of the cubicle were covered with all sorts of wanted posters, some of which seemed to have been put up recently, with traces of glue still remaining on the edges; others were yellowed from age and looked weathered.

Soon, his gaze was drawn to two brand-new bounty posters.

The targets of these two bounty posters are none other than himself and the Yellow Flash, Minato Namikaze.

The paper was brand new, clearly recently pasted on.

Among them, Minato Namikaze's bounty was 30 million taels higher than his, reaching a staggering 80 million taels.

Damn it! Are all the people in Kirigakure poor?

Look at Iwagakure (Hidden Stone Village). They were also defeated by an individual on the battlefield, but the bounty was much higher.

How can I accept that Minato Namikaze's bounty is higher than mine?

Seeing that Uchiha Eboshi's gaze remained fixed on the bounty posters for the "Konoha Twin Stars," the black market boss rubbed his hands together and spoke with a fawning expression.

"If you can take these two heads, we can pay you the bounty within three days, and we'll only take 10% of it!"

Being a bounty hunter is a high-risk profession, and many bounty hunters are unwilling to meet directly with their employers in order to protect their identities and safety.

After all, only powerful forces can issue bounties, which requires the black market to act as a bridge.

Of course, the black market is not a charity; while acting as a go-between, it also takes a cut of the bounty as a reward.

"Hmph! I don't want to provoke the Five Great Ninja Villages. Are there any targets with high bounties that have nothing to do with the Five Great Ninja Villages?"

Uchiha Eiji's eyes gleamed as he feigned considerable fear of the Five Great Ninja Villages.

The black market boss was not surprised by Uchiha Sho's request.

After all, the five great ninja villages are powerful and should not be provoked; this is common knowledge in the ninja world.

Therefore, he smiled and took out a booklet from his pocket, handing it to Uchiha Sō.

"These are targets that we specifically selected, targets that are unrelated to the Five Great Ninja Villages."

"You can take your time choosing, there's no rush."

As Uchiha Xiang flipped through the booklet, he casually tore off a few of the "consumables" he had selected.

These targets were either treacherous ninjas who committed evil deeds or bandits who wreaked havoc in the area.

Although they have some strength, eliminating them will not leave any future troubles.

With the strength of Uchiha Sho, plus the intelligence support from the Konoha Police Department.

In just a few months, he eliminated four rebellious forces and five bandit strongholds that had been ruling the mountains and causing havoc in the area.

Aside from the "consumables" they acquired, Uchiha Sho earned nearly 30 million ryo just from plundering the wealth of these rogue ninjas and bandits.

Including his bounty income, even after deducting the black market's cut, he has earned the equivalent of Minato Namikaze's bounty in the past few months.

As Uchiha Zang completed one bounty mission after another with astonishing speed and efficiency.

His title of "Heavenly Emperor" spread rapidly throughout the entire underground black market circle, and everyone knew him.

……

In a black market near the border of the Land of Fire and the Land of Rain.

Kakuzu, who had recently joined Akatsuki, casually tossed a corpse to a black market boss while wearing his signature red cloud-patterned robes.

The black market dealer carefully compared the wanted poster with the corpse, and after confirming that it was the same person, he put the body into the cold storage. He spoke with a smile.

"Lord Kakuzu is indeed incredibly powerful, completing such a difficult bounty mission in less than a day. Please wait a moment, the bounty will be delivered to you shortly."

As one of the best bounty hunters, Kakuzu enjoys a very high reputation in the black market.

It was precisely because of his high efficiency that the black market was even willing to advance the bounty for him after each bounty mission, providing him with thoughtful service to save his precious time.

After all, each time we entertained this big client, it resulted in a substantial revenue stream.

After receiving the bounty, Kakuzu asked the black market boss for a list of wanted targets, preparing to choose his next target.

However, as soon as he received the list, he noticed that it was much thinner than before. He frowned and asked a question.

"How is this going?"

When Kakuzu asked him a question, the black market boss's lips curled up in an exaggerated smile, almost reaching his ears. It was obvious that he was extremely happy.

"Recently, a big figure named 'Heavenly Emperor' has emerged in the bounty ninja circle of the underground black market of the ninja world. His efficiency in carrying out missions is astonishing, and he has taken on many missions single-handedly."

"Oh? The Heavenly Emperor?"

Upon hearing this, a hint of suspicion appeared on Kakuzu's face.

"That's right! He's a super big shot with exceptional skills. In just a few months, he has completed seven or eight extremely difficult tasks in succession, and the completion rate has miraculously reached 100%."

The black market boss clicked his tongue in amazement, his eyes filled with admiration.

"Humph!"

Faced with the black market boss's repeated praises, Kakuzu couldn't help but let out a slightly displeased snort.

For Kakuzu, every outstanding colleague is a potential competitor for his bounty missions, and even a formidable foe among his enemies.

After all, top-tier bounty ninja missions are few and far between, and each additional top expert means he could potentially lose a considerable amount of wealth.

Chapter 67, Obsessed with Money

Moreover, bounty missions in the ninja world are not endless.

After a group of rogue ninjas and bandits were eliminated, the territory became vacant, and over time, a new batch of people would naturally fill the void.

However, they are not NPCs in the game and will not refresh immediately; it takes some time.

Moreover, even if new rogue ninjas and bandits emerge, they will only be put on the black market after they have committed numerous misdeeds and thoroughly angered the local nobles and wealthy merchants.

Therefore, there are only so many tasks for a certain period of time.

If a certain bounty hunter ninja completes all the missions in a short period of time, then the other bounty hunter ninjas will have nothing to do during that time.

Seeing that Kakuzu seemed to be at odds with the Heavenly Emperor, the black market boss wisely kept quiet and stopped mentioning anything related to the Heavenly Emperor.

Kakuzu held the list of wanted persons in his hand, lost in thought.

The efficiency with which the other party completes bounty missions is simply outrageous.
