All Heavens: Transcending Dimensions Starting with the Uchiha

After reaching a consensus once again, Obito's figure flickered and disappeared into thin air.

"What a convenient yet bizarre ability! No wonder it's a pupil technique that can even tear apart Truth-Seeking Balls. I wonder if my Great Luo Blessed Land will have such an ability after it evolves into a Grotto Heaven?"

Watching Obito come and go as he pleased, Uchiha Xiang felt a mixture of envy and anticipation for the abilities of his evolved eye technique.

In the original timeline, Kakashi easily tore through Madara's Truth-Seeking Ball defense with just one transplanted Mangekyou Sharingan.

This demonstrates the domineering nature of "God's Might" spatial abilities.

This is simply unreasonable!

No wonder, in my past life there was a saying that space was supreme and time was king!

This also shows that the defense of the Seeking the Way Jade is not without its weaknesses; at least it cannot defend against attacks at the spatial level.

Putting aside his complicated thoughts, Uchiha Zō flashed out of the Root's secret vault, which had been "emptied."

Instead of marveling at the power of "Divine Might," we should take this opportunity to "pick up the scraps" at the roots.

As long as his bloodline completion plan progresses further and the Great Luo Blessed Land completes its evolution, it may not be inferior to Shenwei.

After quickly passing through several dark passages, Uchiha Elephant stopped at a corner.

He looked around and realized that what appeared to be a large laboratory was in front of him.

There were no staff members in the entire laboratory, which appeared to be a laboratory that had ceased operations.

After confirming that there were no enemies, Uchiha Sho sneaked into the laboratory.

They stopped in front of a machine that resembled a large freezer, and Uchiha Xiang peered through the glass dome on top of the machine.

"Hiss, so this is the Hashirama cell fusion laboratory?"

Inside the glass enclosure, a person in a vegetative state lay quietly.

A true vegetative state patient, with his wood-elemental cells running rampant, almost half-human and half-tree.

It's obvious that the intercolumnar cell fusion failed.

He withdrew his gaze and quickly went to a row of large experimental tanks.

"Damn, Danzo is really obsessed with Hashirama cells. I remember that this type of nutrient tank was still only in the design stage in the Land of Snow."

"Did Danzo and his group develop and produce this themselves?"

Stroking the glass cover of the nutrient tank and looking at the numerous Hashirama cell fusion experimental subjects inside, Uchiha Zō's eyes gleamed.

Excellent! This is the laboratory where Danzo conducted his research on halo cells. The data and materials inside are extremely important to him.

If we say that the materials and specifications of the laboratory Orochimaru left him were of the highest level.

Therefore, this laboratory must be at least level five or higher.

Many of these devices were unfamiliar to Uchiha Sō, who didn't even know what they were used for.

It is easy to imagine how much manpower and resources Danzo spent to build this laboratory.

Now he's getting all the benefits!

Danzo was such a good man!

He had calculated that he had prepared as many storage scrolls as possible in order to "scavenger" at the root.

It's mine, it's mine, it's all mine!

Uchiha Sho acted like a tiger among sheep, quickly sealing and packing up the large experimental instruments one by one.

New "roots" of the leaf sprouted from the decaying old roots of the leaf.

Konoha Security Chief Uchiha Sō would like to express his gratitude to Elder Danzo for his full support...

……

In the dense forest outside the village.

A purple poisonous mist enveloped the area ahead, cutting off Jiraiya's pursuit.

"Shhhhh..."

A few minutes later, figures arrived at the battlefield.

The leader of the team was none other than Shimura Danzo, the leader of Root and one of the advisors and elders of Konoha!

Accompanying them were the leaders of the Ino-Shika-Cho clans, as well as a large number of Konoha's elite ninja, including Hyuga Hizashi.

It seems the village is truly furious about Orochimaru's defection.

After scanning the battlefield with his cold gaze, Danzo's previously gloomy expression immediately softened.

Without a doubt, the pursuit operation arranged by the third generation has completely failed.

Why did you send Jiraiya to intercept Orochimaru?

Did this guy deliberately let Orochimaru go?

That's true, capturing Orochimaru is too difficult.

If I were caught, although my Root organization would suffer huge losses, the monkey's power would also be greatly damaged after Minato Namikaze takes over.

It would be better to use this as leverage to control me and force me to stay with him.

In this way, the new Hokage is nothing more than his puppet.

Hmph! I've seen through you, monkey.

Jiraiya approached Danzo with a sense of guilt.

"Lord Danzo, we have failed."

Danzo gave Jiraiya a deep look, his voice low and his expression unhappy.

Which direction did he escape in?

After pointing in the direction Orochimaru had fled, Jiraiya continued to speak.

"Orochimaru's ninjutsu and summoning beasts are too powerful, I think..."

Before Jiraiya could finish speaking, Danzo rallied a group of Konoha's elite ninjas and chased after Orochimaru in the direction he had fled.

Those who don't know the relationship between them might think that Danzo and Orochimaru have some deep-seated hatred between them.

Of course, the reason Danzo is so urgent on the surface is that Orochimaru attacked the Ruthless's base.

"Ugh……"

Jiraiya sighed helplessly.

The idea of ​​hunting Orochimaru was something he proposed to the old man himself. He wanted to try to win back his old friend by leveraging their long-standing bond.

He deliberately only brought three secret squads with him.

Unfortunately, all four members of the first Dark Guard squad to set off were killed in battle.

Subsequently, two of the eight members of the two secret service squads responsible for the backup were killed in action, and six others were seriously injured and collapsed.

Now that things have come to this, Jiraiya knows that Orochimaru can no longer turn back.

I just hope that Danzo's elite forces from Konoha won't run into Orochimaru.

The Orochimaru of today seems like a complete stranger to him!

Soon, news of Jiraiya's failed pursuit reached the village.

The Third Hokage, who was leading his team to intimidate the Uchiha, was dazed upon learning of Jiraiya's defeat with the Anbu.

In an instant, he seemed to have aged even more.

Chapter 80, Konoha's "Gatekeeper"

Hiruzen Sarutobi slowly raised his pipe, took a deep drag, and amidst the swirling smoke, his eyes appeared deep and complex.

To be honest, when he arranged for Jiraiya to pursue Orochimaru, he wasn't entirely without illusions.

He secretly hoped that Jiraiya could successfully bring Orochimaru back, and that with the prestige and achievements of the Third Hokage, he might be able to save this disciple who had gone astray.

At that time, the beautiful scene of "kindness between teacher and disciple" will be presented again, and Orochimaru will be able to continue his research in secret while limiting Danzo's ambitious Root forces. Everything will be perfect.

However, reality is always cruel and harsh. This disciple, whom he was once proud of, ultimately chose the path of defection.

Orochimaru's sudden defection was like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, creating ripples that completely shattered the delicate balance between the Uchiha clan and the village.

Orochimaru, who was hailed as one of the Legendary Sannin after the war, defected, starkly exposing the internal discord within the Hokage faction to everyone.

Hiruzen Sarutobi, pipe in mouth, glanced at Fugaku Uchiha not far away from the corner of his eye, his heart filled with worry.

He understood that once news of the village's failed pursuit of Orochimaru reached them, it would likely incite discontent and unrest among the radical faction of the Uchiha clan.

After all, in Hiruzen Sarutobi's hands, besides the newly appointed head of the security force, Uchiha Sō, there was another powerful member of the Uchiha clan with the Mangekyou Sharingan.

And this powerful figure was none other than Uchiha Shisui, who was once hailed as the "Number One Genius of the Uchiha Clan".

At a time of turmoil within the Naruto lineage, the Uchiha clan, possessing two Mangekyou Sharingan, could very well harbor ulterior motives and attempt to seize control of the village.

Hiruzen Sarutobi turned his gaze to Shisui beside Fugaku, his mind churning with thoughts.

He must change his attitude towards Shisui and try his best to win him over in order to ensure that the Uchiha clan can be stabilized before Minato Namikaze takes over.

Just then, Uchiha Sō, who had returned from "picking up scraps" at Root, felt it was time to show himself.

He could not only use this opportunity to create an alibi to avoid Danzo suspecting that he went to Root to "pick up scraps", but also take the opportunity to observe the movements of the Hokage and his group.

Then, Uchiha Hajime appeared in front of Fugaku with a Body Flicker Technique and began to question him.

"Such a commotion! The Hokage has brought so many people to visit the Uchiha clan in the middle of the night. Could it be that he intends to harm our Uchiha clan?"

Faced with Uchiha Sō's questioning, Hiruzen Sarutobi frowned, and the wrinkles on his forehead deepened.

It's like when it rains, it pours!

At this moment, what is Uchiha Eboshi's intention in suddenly appearing?

Why did you choose to appear at this awkward time, instead of earlier or later? Isn't that deliberately creating difficulties for him?

However, Hiruzen Sarutobi was, after all, a cunning old fox who had been navigating the power struggles of Konoha for many years, and he quickly devised a countermeasure.

"Elephant, you've finally come out. Orochimaru has defected, and Konoha is in dire need of manpower. You, as the Konoha Police Chief, can't just sit idly by."
