"Heh, you think you'll be useful if you don't save your money?"
Kagami Uchiha threw the limp Kakuzu and cast Summoning Technique.
"Waaaah~ Mirror... Master..."
Revolver, his Revolver full of dried fish, quickly swallowed it in a few bites.
She looked him up and down with disdain.
"You must weigh almost 900 pounds, right? If you run too slowly, I'll switch to Ninja Cat."
Revolver quickly shook its head. "How could that be, meow? Fat is my power source! My speed is already the fastest in the clan. They've been calling me Orange Flash meow lately!"
Kagami Uchiha took out paper and pen from his pocket and drew a location.
"At this location, there is a stone statue. Under the seventh tree to the south, dig down 3.2 meters and you'll find the money."
The Revolver raised one claw in salute. "Understood!"
His large, dark eyes caught sight of Kakuzu.
You're really brave... You actually dared to go out for a stroll...

The Land of Grass.
Like the Land of Rain, it is a small country sandwiched between powerful nations. Since the establishment of the one-country-one-village system, it has suffered from the ravages of war Hashirama's death.
The positive assessment of Grass Ninja is that it is a ninja village that is good at learning.
To put it bluntly, he lacked any real foundation and needed to secretly learn Ninjutsu from a major ninja village.
It's likely that the story about Kusagakure almost ruling the world thanks to the Box of Paradise was spread by them themselves.
Could there have been Kusagakure during the time of the Sage of Six Paths?
Kagami Uchiha had no good feelings towards this country because of Karin and her mother.
He understood the principles that Nagato had explained to him, and he also knew the difficulties faced by these small countries.
But...
What does that have to do with me?
After leaving the Land of Fire, Kagami Uchiha witnessed firsthand the chaos in the outside world.
While it wasn't exactly a desolate wasteland, the outside world already resembled the post-apocalyptic wasteland he knew from his past.
The small ninja villages formed a refuge, and there were also many bandit strongholds. Without any order or restraint, the ninjas all became mountain kings.
This is the natural consequence of having extraordinary power and no order.
Simply put, it's a return to primitive society, where the strong prey on the weak.
Although the essence of the Land of Fire has not changed, the existence of basic systems means that the strong will at least provide protection for the weak.
After all, it requires the weak to produce.
Kagami Uchiha also killed several bandit groups along the way.
How stupid! I dare to travel alone, can't you see how awesome I am?
Therefore, even bandits need to be discerning.

According to information obtained by Kagami Uchiha, the monster that escaped from the Box of Paradise is still entrenched in Hozuki Castle.
It is clever; it controls a group of puppets modified from the Box of Paradise to help it collect individuals with chakra.
To put it bluntly, the monster named 'Wu' is merely the strongest puppet controlled by the Box of Paradise.
These random things all seem to have similar skills; the Moryo can control the terracotta army, and so can this thing.
Even the Dragon Vein of the past had similar functions.
Is this considered the underlying logic of the Shinobi World?
The closer you get to Hozuki Castle, the less human life there is.
Human skeletons were everywhere, and rotting flesh and human skin hung from the trees. The only sound was the cawing of crows.
It's like a demon kingdom built on human bones.
"Sukuna, this suits your temperament perfectly. Wouldn't you like to have a city like this?"
Sukuna, who appeared amidst a backdrop of mountains of corpses and seas of blood, sneered, "How could such a filthy, stinking place be worthy of me?"
"However, I sensed that I wasn't far from that piece of trash that was trying to steal my share."
Brush!
Suddenly, a small figure blocked Kagami Uchiha's path.
Kagami Uchiha looked up and saw that the guy looked somewhat familiar, but he couldn't remember what his name was.
It has light purple, circular eyes that resemble the Rinnegan in appearance, but it doesn't possess any pupil power; it's merely similar.
White hair, a headband from Kusagakure...
A very pretty little girl.
Kagami Uchiha was very impressed by her family's secret techniques.
The Dragon Life Reincarnation Technique and Chiyo Chiyo's One's Own Life Reincarnation have the same effect: sacrificing one's own life to save another person.
It must be her. In the original timeline, she traded her own life for Naruto's.
Dragon... right, I think her name is Ryuzetsu.
Looking at this little girl, who was probably only seven or eight years old, standing Kunai in her hand.
Kagami Uchiha chuckled lightly, "Are you trying to rob me?"
Ryuzetsu shook his head. "Don't go any further. There are terrifying monsters in Hozuki Castle now. You'll die!"
"Let's escape before those puppets come out!"
Sensing the girl's kindness, Kagami Uchiha bent down slightly.
"Then why are you still here, little girl?"
A flash of pain crossed Ryuzetsu's face as he shook his head. "None of your business! You should just leave!"
Kagami Uchiha ignored her warning and walked towards Hozuki Castle as if he were strolling in his own backyard.
"Hey! I told you not to go over there!"
Ryuzetsu, looking tense, caught up and blocked Kagami Uchiha once again.
"Keep up."
Kagami Uchiha walked past her and said calmly.
"It's just for fun."
Watching Kagami Uchiha, Ryuzetsu gritted his teeth and struggled for a while.
For some reason, she felt a desire to follow them.
This person...
Sensing the Ryuzetsu hanging hundreds of meters behind him, Kagami Uchiha smiled slightly.
He likes good people, and his tolerance increases as long as the good person still has value to him.
He's not Sukuna, a mentally ill person who would kill someone just because he doesn't like them.
All techniques have their limits.
He didn't think the girl's family secret techniques would work on him, but if she were properly trained...
It can be given to Shisui as a revival coin.
I am currently the strongest person in the open, a great demon king in a biographical story that others must work together to defeat.
He is not afraid of others attacking him.
But his weakness is too obvious.
To prevent his grandmother from being disturbed by the Impure World Reincarnation, he used extremely powerful Sealing Jutsu to seal her and his grandfather's coffins.
If Black Zetsu or anyone else dares to lay a hand on Grandma's remains, they'll be severely punished, even if they don't die.
Cremation is actually the best way to handle it, but he can't bear to do it.
However, he was very willing to spend money on others.
A new decree from Konoha mandates that ninjas be cremated to prevent Orochimaru from disturbing the dead with forbidden techniques.
Hatake Sakumo and others had also met Tobirama Senju and thought the decree was reasonable.
It's all that wretched S-Rank Missing-nin Orochimaru's fault!
And Shisui...
No matter what, he's the little brother I watched grow up, and I also have a promise to my grandmother, so Kagami Uchiha will definitely take good care of him.
He wouldn't pave a path that he thought was best for Sasuke, like Uchiha Itachi did.
After instilling a basic worldview in Shisui, Kagami Uchiha will allow him to experience the world for himself and make his own judgments.
For others, Kagami Uchiha only gives them a single choice.
The Shisui will be stopped more times than others.
Even if someone makes a wrong choice and dies, they should be brought back to life and given another chance to choose.
I can't let him die so young and then go to the afterlife to complain about me.
The sun was setting.
The town, which resembled a den of demons, emitted low growls.
Like a zombie, it slowly walked out of the city.
As far as the eye can see, there are countless.
