Madara, let's change the world together!

Unlike Jiraiya and Tsunade, he did not release his emotions through grief, but instead attributed them to the fragility of life.

"Humans are such fragile things."

Is there any way to make life more resilient, or even achieve eternity?

Reason allowed Orochimaru to commit inhumane acts without batting an eye—human experimentation.

Perhaps Orochimaru's words to the young Itachi Uchiha after the Third Shinobi World War in the original work reflect his values.

"There is no point in mourning the dead."

"If death has any meaning, it only exists when it can be used."

"Then what is the meaning of life?" Itachi asked.

"It has no meaning either; if it does, it only exists in the time of eternal life."

Life has no inherent meaning because everyone will eventually die, but if the death of some people can provide value for the research on human immortality, then their deaths can be considered meaningful.

This also contributed to Orochimaru's indifference to the lives of others.

After all, being too rational is immoral.

Immorality means being contrary to the order and morality pursued by Kiyoi Gen.

Power must be used wisely, not allowed to grow wildly.

The same applies to technology.

He can bring blessings to humanity, or he can destroy it.

How to guide this power is something a leader like him should consider.

Kiyoi Gen temporarily put the Orochimaru matter aside.

The research on Hashirama's cells has not yet been sealed by the Third Hokage, so it is impossible for him to get close to Orochimaru.

When he saw that Konoha had suffered a large number of deaths due to research on Hashirama's cells, Kiyoi Gen felt fortunate that Madara had joined them.

The chemical reaction resulting from the fusion of the Hatake Eternal Kaleidoscope Sharingan cells and the Hashirama cells reduced the Hashirama cells' strong rejection ability, allowing the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (NIST) to quickly develop a type I cell-enhancing solvent, and on this basis, complete the development of type II and type III enhancement solvents.

It must be said that it was fortunate that these studies were completed without any casualties.

Kiyoi Gen shifted his gaze to the names of the three legendary Konoha ninjas on the white paper.

We can't rush things.

"Yuan, what are you thinking about?"

At that moment, a rich, sweet aroma wafted over.

Aino stroked her long hair by her ear while bringing her fair face closer.

Because they were so close, they could feel each other's breath and the temperature of each other's faces.

"Ah, I was thinking about the question I asked Jiraiya earlier."

"After all, the military force for unification by force is already sufficient. Now I need to think about how to do it even better."

"There will be no shortage of problems after unification is completed."

Kiyoshi Gen appeared to be deep in thought.

War, in a sense, is also a way to divert internal conflicts.

When Japan's territory expands, it will inevitably encounter entirely new and difficult problems.

For example, how to properly treat people with great power.

"Well, there's no need to worry about these things too much."

"With you all here, even if new problems arise, I am confident that I can solve them and strive for a better future for more people!"

Kiyoshi Gen couldn't help but reveal a confident smile, while the other three stared at him blankly.

"Uh, what's wrong?"

Aino, who was closest, tiptoed and pecked Kiyoi Gen's lips with her pink cherry lips.

After she finished doing everything, she seemed to wake up from a dream and shyly twisted her body, secretly glancing at Kiyoshi Gen's bewildered expression.

"I...I couldn't help it."

Two small, fair hands were placed on her swollen breasts, fingers interlaced.

"We're husband and wife! So it's probably okay for me to suddenly kiss my husband, right?"

"Besides, Yuan, you looked so handsome just now, it made me unable to resist..."

"If you don't believe me, ask Sister Xiao Ai and Sister Feng Sha."

There was no need to ask; Kiyoshi could clearly feel the intense gazes of the other two people.

It was clear that the other two shared the same thoughts as Aino.

Wouldn't this sudden turn of events make him want to rest earlier?

The next moment, Kiyoi Gen pulled Aino into his arms.

The other person slumped into his lap, her two large, watery eyes seemed to be sparkling, and her pink cherry lips parted slightly.

Looking at Aino's cute and beautiful face, Kiyoi Gen followed his desires.

"Yuan! Wait!"

But someone didn't want to wait.

"Well!"

"Kiss~"

A strong left hand pressed down on Aino's delicate back, and she felt as if she were embedded in Kiyoi Gen's embrace.

My lips were burning, my mind was blank, and I couldn't think at all.

"This is what a kiss should be; what we did before wasn't enough."

"Since you've agreed to be my people, you should be prepared to accept it."

I could hear warm breaths and my lover's whispers in my ear.

Aino's eyes seemed to be shrouded in a thin mist, and her whole body was completely limp, not wanting to move at all.

Damn it~ I don't want to move once I'm in Yuan's arms.

"Okay, for now, just stay here and work with me for a while."

"I'll spend time with you when I'm resting."

"I-I understand~"

"Then hurry up, I don't want to wait too long."

The scene tonight is not worth describing in detail.

Chapter 142 Technological Development in the Early Days

Kiyoi Gen did not rush to meet his target. Instead, he began to enjoy life like any other nobleman visiting Konoha.

Sometimes he would take his wives out for a stroll and enjoy intimate moments;

Sometimes he would chat with Jiraiya and listen to him boast;

Occasionally, he would take a short break to use the Flying Thunder Formation technique to go back temporarily and see his family.

The commercial base of "Konoha House" is under construction in an orderly manner, while in Hatsuhi Castle, Kiyoi Megumi, who has taken over all of her brother's work, is trying to adapt.

At this moment, she was sitting in the "supreme chair" in the office of Chu Richeng.

Currently, she is the third person to work here.

Her long silver hair was styled into a bun and secured with a jade hairpin.

The original yukata was replaced with a white women's blouse and a black pencil skirt.

Her thighs, clad in flesh-colored pantyhose, were crossed, and her two beautiful feet were encased in black high heels.

Kiyoi Megumi adjusted her non-prescription glasses and read the document.

This outfit was recommended to her by Kiyoshi Gen, who said it would suit her perfectly and give her a special aura.

To be honest, after getting used to it for a while, Kiyoi Megumi felt much more capable when she looked at herself in the mirror.

"Sister Hui."

Inside the room, Kiyoshi Fuyuki, dressed in a smart assistant's uniform, reported with a blank expression and a flat voice.

"Dean Gongcun and Dean Meifang called to say that they have decided on the next dean and vice dean."

"okay, I get it."

Kiyoi Megumi stood up.

"Xiaodong, I'm leaving the office to you for now. I'm going to the Institute of Advanced Technology."

Because her brother, Kiyoi Gen, took the assistant away, Kiyoi Megumi had to find another capable person to temporarily replace her.

Of her four younger sisters, Kiyoi Fuyu, who doesn't express emotions much but is thoughtful, focused and meticulous, is the most suitable.

"Aishatu, could you please come with me?"

"No problem, meow~"

With a series of "clattering" footsteps, Kiyoi Megumi entered the space tunnel and headed to the research institute on the moon.

Although she didn't see Aisha, she believed that Aisha was right beside her.

After swimming through a short passage, Kiyoi Megumi passed through the barrier and arrived at the heavily guarded War Hall.

She gave the soldiers around her a friendly smile, then took to the air and flew towards the Research Institute.

Today, the moon has been transformed into a dedicated, confidential location through continuous development.

The giant Tenseigan at the very center was given to Otsutsuki Hare, a descendant of Hamura's main family, to control, with Otsutsuki Kaguya assisting in its control.

Unfortunately, researching the Tenseigan is too difficult, and the Research Institute of Technology has not yet found a method, so they can only rely on observation.

Kiyoi Megumi skillfully passed through the large barrier covering the entire research institute and arrived at the main gate.
