Resurrection isn't that cheap.
After death, most ninjas enter the Pure Land and are not immediately reincarnated; their souls are preserved there for a considerable period of time.
What Hiruko did was to find some opportunity within this to achieve true resurrection, rather than simply controlling a soulless body like in Edo Tensei.
Hiruko was filled with curiosity about the Pure Land, this special space where the souls of the dead reside, and had a strong interest in its principles and structure.
Hiruko then used Orochimaru's Impure World Reincarnation technique to summon the souls of the dead.
Next, they continued to test Granny Chiyo's Reincarnation Technique, trying to explore the conditions for a soul to leave the Pure Land and achieve true resurrection.
At the same time, a large amount of experimental data was collected to plan and strategize for achieving its goals.
Hiruko indeed harbored considerable ambitions for the Pure Land.
Furthermore, since Hiruko is not a native resident of this world, he is destined to explore all the worlds and realms in the future.
Exploring alone is too slow and fraught with risks.
Therefore, Hiruko needs a large number of tools to gather information about other worlds, speed up the conquest process, and absorb resources from each world.
Even the vast universe requires a massive number of people to explore.
After some thought, I decided to set my sights on Pure Land.
Hiruko plans to become the Sword God of Shilipo in a parallel world, and then build his own power system in a vast number of parallel worlds.
Once these powerful forces are established, they can begin their conquest of the other world.
At that time, it wouldn't be impossible to establish a main god space.
In this space, there will be no friction or conflict between different forces. Instead, special cross-world missions will be set up to allow powerful characters from different worlds to come into contact with users.
They provide various services, such as treating injuries, medical treatments, body replacement, bloodline exchange, bloodline fusion, exchange for rare and precious materials, and even provide pirated God Chakra Fruits.
Having fully grasped the essence of the Reincarnation Technique, Hiruko's gaze fell upon the dead.
The Pure Land, a special space that can continuously absorb the souls of the dead, gave Hiruko a flash of inspiration—what better source of labor is there than the spirits of the dead?
The special term "Valhalla" instantly echoed in my mind.
In Norse mythology, Valhalla is the hall where Odin receives the spirits of fallen heroes. The valiant Valkyries select brave warriors who fight valiantly and fearlessly on the battlefield.
After their deaths, they are taken to Valhalla to become comrades-in-arms of the future gods in the face of the apocalypse. In other words, it is exploiting the dead and making them laborers for the gods.
Hiruko thought the idea was absolutely brilliant.
As a long-time anime/manga fan...
Having a greater familiarity with other worlds, Hiruko couldn't help but have the idea of seizing the Pure Land and creating her own unique group of Heroic Spirits working for her in the Naruto world.
When Hiruko invades the multiverse, having these heroic spirits as his aid will make his actions much easier.
Unfortunately, there are very few clues that can be directly linked to the Pure Land, apart from vague legends.
Only Madara Uchiha's Rinnegan could break the balance of Yin and Yang and directly revive the dead.
And Granny Chiyo's Reincarnation Technique can revive the dead.
But this is far from enough; I need more means and resources to realize this grand plan.
Although what we currently possess is only the technology related to resurrection for a single target, to achieve resurrection in the Naruto world, it must be inextricably linked to the Pure Land.
Hiruko was naturally convinced that as long as there was enough experimental data, he would definitely be able to discover and analyze the Pure Land, this real and special space.
Scientific research is inherently a process of continuous thinking, experimentation, and summarizing patterns, not to mention the powerful skill of Impure World Reincarnation, which is based on the technique of summoning spirits.
Hiruko once envisioned the possibility of reversing the process of reincarnation in the Pure Land. If a soul made a mistake during its journey from the Pure Land back to the mortal realm, would the soul in the mortal realm be destroyed in the Pure Land?
Chapter 171 SM Styling
However, considering that beings like the Sage of Six Paths and his brothers exist in the Pure Land, and that their consciousness remains at the moment before their death when they are summoned by the Impure World Reincarnation, Hiruko did not delve further into this issue.
After all, if one's soul goes in and can't get out, then everything is over.
And then there's Obito's Kamui, which is absolutely outrageous. He can even send a message from the Pure Land to Kakashi in the afterlife, making the rules of space seem loose and arbitrary in his hands.
However, considering that Obito also experienced many adventures, including being the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki, Six Paths Mode, and possessing the power of the Six Paths, this kind of communication through space is not entirely unacceptable.
"I wonder what brings you here, Granny Chiyo? Do you hope I can help mend your relationship with your family? If you're looking to mend your relationship with Sasori, you've come to the wrong person," Hiruko asked with a hint of curiosity.
Granny Chiyo shook her head and said solemnly, "No, I came here hoping that you can revive the Fifth Kazekage."
She hasn't been idle at the base these days; she must have made this decision after careful consideration.
Although she could not fully see through Hiruko, she knew that Hiruko had the idea of resurrecting the dead.
As an elderly woman who dedicated her life to the Land of Wind, Granny Chiyo was well aware of the lack of promising young talents in Sunagakure.
After Gaara, the Jinchuriki, died, Sunagakure couldn't find a second person who could seal the Tailed Beasts in a short period of time.
Some might ask, why not revive the Third Kazekage, who is hailed as the strongest Kazekage in history?
Hiruko did not reject Granny Chiyo's suggestion; instead, she looked at her with great interest.
The Third Kazekage ultimately did not belong to this era. Unlike the Fifth Kazekage, Gaara, who was dedicated to strengthening Sunagakure and forged deep friendships with the younger generation of Konoha, Gaara was diligent in governing the village.
However, the Third Kazekage harbored considerable hostility towards Konoha.
Reviving him would likely be detrimental to the alliance between Sunagakure and Konoha.
Granny Chiyo rejected the idea of resurrecting the Third Kazekage without hesitation, since Sunagakure currently lacked a genius capable of controlling him.
Furthermore, although Sunagakure has a profound history, in Granny Chiyo's view, Sunagakure will need to recuperate and rebuild for a long time to come.
At this time, a Kazekage with a deep friendship with Konoha is crucial; combat strength is not the key factor.
After all, the Fourth Kazekage, who was known as the strongest Kazekage, was still assassinated by his unfilial grandson in collusion with Orochimaru, and the Third Hokage was also killed by Orochimaru, a Kage-level assassin.
If those two are resurrected, they'll probably tear down this base immediately. Then, the two Kazekage, who can't see reality clearly, will probably die again.
"Why not revive a Gaara who has been reformed by the bonds of Konoha and has regained his senses!"
"Well-reasoned and convincing," Hiruko said with a smile.
"However, I don't have Gaara's DNA, so someone will need to bring his body over."
"Senior, who do you think is suitable for this job? I think Sakura is."
Grandma Chiyo pondered for a moment, then tentatively asked.
"She still has her own job." Hiruko didn't take it seriously and simply handed the task over to Granny Chiyo, thinking that with the Gaara revival project in hand, Granny Chiyo would surely work hard.
Inside a room of the Solar Furnace Tower, a powerful surge of chakra roared and exploded like thunder.
It seems that Hiruko's reckless resurrection of the dead has finally gotten him into trouble with a troublesome individual.
However, on the land of Loulan, anyone who tries to resist Beiliuhu can be directly suppressed using the energy of the dragon vein, and any resistance will be in vain.
Hiruko didn't even need to activate Sage Mode to suppress the troublemaker.
"Let me go, you bastard!" Kushina Uzumaki, bound in an SM-like position with countless vines, was still roaring furiously.
Her fiery red hair danced wildly like burning flames, and as she struggled, countless golden chakra chains continuously emerged.
These chains, like nimble snakes, relentlessly pounded against the surrounding wood, even attempting to bind the terrifying white-haired man before them, Biruhu.
Hiruko moved nimbly and skillfully dodged Kushina Uzumaki's attack, inwardly cursing the woman's desperate struggle.
He clapped his hands, and countless strange plants with flower buds sprouted instantly in the room.
The flower buds bloom in an instant, spraying out powder with hypnotic, paralyzing, and displacing effects.
The powder, like a dreamlike mist, instantly spread out, gradually quieting down the previously noisy Kushina Uzumaki.
"He's really a troublesome guy. He got into this mess after being fooled by a few words."
Hiruko rubbed his forehead, feeling a bit of a headache. Kushina's noisy chatter made his head buzz.
It seems we really need to be more careful when resurrecting the dead in the future. It would be best to resurrect them in their prime, otherwise we'll just be asking for trouble.
At this moment, Kushina Uzumaki was still very agitated and wouldn't listen to Hiruko's advice at all.
She was determined to find Naruto, and in her opinion, Hiruko was not a good person.
Hiruko was quite helpless about this; the sharp intuition of these ninjas could sometimes be a real headache.
Looking at Kushina Uzumaki, who was bound in a classic SM shape with vines and was still struggling, Hiruko thought to himself, now that he had resurrected her, he couldn't just kill her directly.
After much thought, he decided to summon Uchiha Mikoto, since Mikoto was Kushina Uzumaki's good friend and might be able to help persuade his hot-tempered older sister.
At the same time, Hiruko also summoned Sasuke Uchiha, intending to talk to him about the past of the Uchiha clan and the truth behind Itachi Uchiha's massacre of the clan.
"Are you ready, Uchiha Sasuke?" Hiruko looked at the cool guy with a resolute expression and asked seriously.
“Come on, I’m ready.” Sasuke Uchiha replied just as seriously, his eyes revealing an unwavering determination.
"Don't treat me like a clueless kid. I'm an adult, and I can handle whatever the truth may be."
Sasuke Uchiha felt utterly disgusted by those who always treated him like a child who would never grow up. He longed to know the truth and to avenge his clan.
"Here I come, Hiruko." Uchiha Sasuke could no longer contain himself and extended his right fist.
Hiruko clenched his fist, and the two fists collided. Their chakra merged without reservation, instantly entering each other's bodies and connecting their hearts.
Hiruko not only showed Sasuke the truth about the Uchiha clan's massacre in augmented reality-like images, but also showed him a lot about Itachi Uchiha's growth experience.
And countless fan works related to Itachi Uchiha, Shisui Uchiha, and Fugaku Uchiha from the main Naruto series were shared with this still weak and helpless Sasuke as if they were real events from a parallel world.
After seeing all this, Sasuke Uchiha's legs went weak, and he collapsed to the ground with a thud, tears welling in his eyes, almost bursting into tears.
His delicate face, combined with this appearance, was simply like a pear blossom in the rain.
No wonder people always pair Sasuke and Naruto together; the two of them standing together do indeed easily evoke certain associations.
"That arrogant guy, and that wretched loser," Sasuke Uchiha muttered, his voice trembling with a hint of a sob.
At that moment, he looked like a helpless child.
Recalling Itachi's decisive and resolute demeanor at Orochimaru's base, and looking at himself now, Sasuke Uchiha realized that he was still too naive.
Looking at Sasuke's tearful face, Hiruko thought to himself, "No wonder so many men and women are captivated by the beauty of the Uchiha clan." He stroked his chin and muttered to himself.
Hiruko suddenly seemed to realize something. It seemed that Sasuke's father had lowered the average appearance of the Uchiha clan. Itachi and Sasuke didn't grow up to be ugly, thanks to Mikoto's excellent genes.
"Why are they all talking to themselves and interfering in my life? It's outrageous! I've been kept in the dark all this time!" Uchiha Sasuke said angrily.
