Danzo's Speculation

Forbidden Technique: Chimera Technique

This Forbidden Technique, once completed, grants the user five Kekkei Genkai, and it's even said that completing the final step grants immortality.

If that's really the case, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call this Ninjutsu strongest Ninjutsu. Not only can it steal powerful Kekkei Genkai, but it can also combine all five into one's own body and grant immortality.

But this Forbidden Technique is actually problematic. First, let's talk about immortality! Why would acquiring the five Kekkei Genkai grant immortality? There's no rationale behind it.

After obtaining and studying this Forbidden Technique, Uchiha Yoruro a contemptuous smile. The so-called immortality was nothing more than a life advancement that he had imagined Kekkei Genkai into one, and it was merely a conjecture.

Just like the so-called final level of the Heaven and Earth Great Shift, even the creator didn't master it; it was merely a concept.

However, there are some drawbacks to seizing Kekkei Genkai. Can Kekkei Genkai be easily seized? Certainly not, but Uchiha Yoru still chose this Forbidden Technique that he had planned for a long time.

"Looks like someone's watching me."

In the shadowy corner, Uchiha Yoru created another Wood Clone, this time impersonating Sesshomaru. After exchanging a glance, Sesshomaru left first, knowing that he had two powerful Kage Level shinobi by his side, making him the easiest target for vulnerability.

It must be said that the wonder of Ninjutsu is that it allows for the exchange of information so quickly.

In the shadowy corner, Uchiha Yoru stared at the wooden statue before him and shook his head, saying, "The downside of Wood Clones is that they leave traces."

Once the Shadow Clone is dispelled, it disappears. In contrast, although the wooden identity was developed based on the Shadow Clone and compensated for some of the Shadow Clone's weakness in withstanding attacks, it also has the drawback of leaving behind a wooden carving after being dispelled.

With a slap on the wooden sculpture's shoulder, a wave of skillful Lightning Release Chakra swept across, instantly turning the solid wooden statue into ashes. In a gust of wind, all traces vanished without a trace.

The memories that surfaced in his mind made him appear thoughtful, and finally he let out a cold laugh.

"It seems someone is eager to step onto the stage I've set up, and the main character I've prepared is finally here."

Uchiha Yoru chuckled to himself, sensing the changes within his body. To trace back, his Uchiha bloodline should actually be that of the Otsutsuki.

The Otsutsuki lineage, and there are six clearly identified families descended from the Otsutsuki.

The Senju Clan, the Uchiha Clan, the Uzumaki Clan, the Hyuga Clan, the Otsutsuki Clan on the moon, and the Kaguya Clan.

There are two families remaining undetermined: the Hagoromo Clan and the Gold and Silver Brothers Clan.

Even with all this knowledge, countless secrets still exist in the Shinobi World.

Uchiha Yoru muttered to himself, after all, the anime from his previous life couldn't possibly tell everything; the Shinobi World held too many secrets.

However, he was certain of one thing: the fusion of the Uchiha and Senju bloodlines would definitely produce a synergistic effect.

"The combined power of the Uchiha and Senju is called the All Creation, or perhaps it should be combined with the Chakra of Asura and Indra, but I want more than just that."

Uchiha Yoru's eyes gleamed with a light of ambition. Since he fused with the Senju bloodline and activated Wood Release, although its power was only at the level of Green Yamato, he could already feel the changes in his body recently.

His Chakra levels had already entered a stable period, but then suddenly they started to surge again, and now he can feel the changes in his body every day.

At the same time, his physical abilities have been enhanced beyond what was usual, all of which indicate that his bloodline has evolved.

"Then the correct path is the Otsutsuki bloodline, or what we would call the Atavistic Bloodline."

Uchiha Yoru muttered to himself, what he needed wasn't Kekkei Genkai, but bloodline itself.

With the fusion of the four bloodlines of Senju, Uzumaki, Hyuga, Kaguya, plus his own Uchiha, wouldn't a perfect fusion result in a return to the ancestral Otsutsuki bloodline, while also gaining immense power?

More importantly, Kaguya Otsutsuki has not aged at all despite being sealed for over a thousand years. Whether this is due to the Divine Tree or her own abilities, he doesn't know yet, but there is one thing he is certain of.

His plan to revert to his ancestral ways not only grants him immense power, but also seems to offer him immortality, or even just a long lifespan.

"It seems this Forbidden Technique is the most suitable for me."

Uchiha Yoruro a satisfied smile. If he were to casually plunder Kekkei Genkai using this Forbidden Technique, it might merge into his body, but that would merely be one plus one equaling two.

In contrast, the fusion of the Uchiha and Senju results in a sum of one plus one equaling three, or even greater than three.

"What I need now is to adapt to the changes in my body."

The combined power of the Uchiha and Senju is immense; the power generated by the instantaneous collision directly increases his Chakra —this is the most direct impact.

However, he could also feel another change in his body: he was overeating. Given that the power of the Uchiha and Senju had merged but not yet completely fused into a new power, it was best for him not to fuse with any other bloodlines.

Otherwise, it will only have a counterproductive effect, or even delay or collapse.

On the carousel, a hint of helplessness flickered in Tsunade's eyes. How could you coax a girl like that? Even though she's a child now, you can't keep bringing her to this place.

"They're gone."

As the cold voice rang out, the young Tsunade immediately smiled, jumped off the wooden horse, and ran over with a lively expression.

During this time, there seemed to be a subtle change between the two. The young Tsunade could clearly sense that the other party seemed to trust her and gradually began to regard her as a trustworthy person.

This change filled her with complex emotions, and she didn't know what to do.

In the end, Tsunade sighed inwardly. She decided to leave after finding her Great-Grandfather's weapon, treating this journey as just a passing one.

And so, Sesshomaru, carrying Tsunade and the other girl, walked one after the other towards the inn in the distance, just passing by Mei Terumi who was still on the carousel.

Or perhaps both of them saw it, but neither paid any attention; at this moment Mei Terumi was already somewhat dazed by this innocent laughter.

It has to be said that Uchiha Yoru chose a place to meet with his clone, and even chose to be together with everyone, showing absolutely no fear of what might happen.

Under the moonlight, Tsunade, pretending to be an innocent girl, looked at the figure walking ahead with a complicated expression. Although she was a ninja, she knew perfectly well that it was all an act.

But people are creatures who yearn for beauty, so it seems that she has no worries at all, and she even has a cold-faced but warm-hearted person to play with.

Although there was a slight regret that she hadn't been able to go and have some fun in a long time, the relaxed feeling she had right now made her feel a little reluctant to leave.

Another sigh escaped my lips. In the end, it was all just a mirage, a reflection in the water. Utakata will eventually burst. Perhaps the best outcome would be for her to leave quietly, turning this experience into a memory.

On the other end.

"Deep."

As the carousel came to a stop, Uchiha Yoru appeared before them, and the two smiled happily.

Having traveled for so long, it seems they're heading off to carry out some ulterior motive.

Despite her inner speculation, Mei Terumi maintained a smile on her face. Just then, Uchiha Yoru, with a gentle smile on his face, slowly took out a sachet.

"Ming, this sachet is for you."

Seeing the exquisite patterns embroidered on the red sachet and its delicate fragrance, Mei Terumi smiled, tucked a strand of hair behind her ear with her slender fingers, and softly said, "Thank you," after accepting the sachet.

"Let's go, it's late, let's go home."

Under the starlit night sky, a horse-drawn carriage carrying a couple slowly drove out of town, a scene filled with warmth.

Konoha Base

"Shinnosuke, this is the latest news. That brat from the Uchiha Clan wants us to escort a girl Land of Fire."

Looking at the intelligence report in her hand, Ume Sarutobi sneered, "Do you think this is a weakness they deliberately revealed, or are they serious?"

Shin'nosuke Sarutobi frowned upon hearing this and said in a deep voice, "What are you trying to say?"

"What did I say? The First Hokage's weapon is clearly something the Kumogakure wants to use to incite chaos. Now the Kumogakure has made it clear that as long as we hand over this person, the First Hokage's weapon will be ours for the taking, and at the same time, the Kumogakure will withdraw from this place."

As she said this, Ume Sarutobi revealed a greedy look in her eyes, "Shinnosuke, those who achieve great things must make sacrifices. Sacrificing an Uchiha brat will bring you a much better situation."

"Bearing the name of the First Hokage's weapon, he is bestowed with glory, while a force will withdraw from the territory of the Land of Whirlpools."

"Shut up!" Ume Sarutobi became increasingly audacious as she spoke, a sight that made Shin'nosuke Sarutobi shout in frustration, his eyes wide.

His eyes blazed with fury, but Ume Sarutobi showed no fear whatsoever, coldly sneering, "As a superior, you are not an ordinary ninja. If you get angry over such a small sacrifice, how will you ever become Hokage?"

"Do you know what you're saying?" Shin'nosuke Sarutobi said in a low voice, his face grim. "Are you crazy?! Don't you know Uchiha Yoru's status within the Uchiha Clan?"

"Of course I know, but how does he compare to the Hokage Position? Or rather, how would sacrificing him on the front lines eliminate a great enemy?"

Shin'nosuke Sarutobi fell silent for a long while before raising his head and asking in a hoarse, low voice, "What are you planning to do?"

Upon seeing this, Ume Sarutobi's lips slowly curved into a smile; she knew her husband was moved.

"Shinnosuke, you will be the Hokage of Konoha someday, someone who basks in the sunlight. You cannot do these things."

"I think roots might be a very good choice, after all, isn't that the meaning of roots' existence?"

With a meaningful smile, Shin'nosuke Sarutobi fell silent, and after a long while, he uttered a single sentence.

"I'll pretend I don't know anything about this."

Ume Sarutobi smiled. Seeing her husband agree, she nodded with a relaxed smile and said, "Don't worry, you don't need to worry about this too much. Our scouts brought back some interesting information today."

"It seems that the Uchiha brat you arranged is secretly providing support under another identity."

As the two were talking, unbeknownst to them, a strange Sharingan was revealing its sinister glint in the darkness.

Kōbe Yoru's identity was discovered, or rather, Uchiha Yoru deliberately exposed himself to lure out someone in the shadows.

Luring the snake out of its hole—whether you can kill it or be bitten by its venom depends on your own methods.

The Root the Konoha.

In the dimly lit secret room, Shimura Danzō looked at the intelligence reports from the front lines. He couldn't help but examine them personally late at night, since this intelligence came from the head of a certain important figure.

After opening the intelligence scroll and reading through all its contents, a cold smile slowly crept onto his lips.

"As expected of a vicious woman, actually trying to use my Root to deal with the brats of the Uchiha Clan. But do you really think the Hokage Position is so easy to obtain?"

With a mocking laugh, he showed contempt for Shin'nosuke Sarutobi and his wife, even towards Shimura Danzō, who was hiding in the shadows. He felt that the other party's strength was not worthy of theirs.

"I promised you that the Root on the front lines would be at your disposal. As a return gift, I will offer you the Sharingan to the genius Uchiha."

Shimura Danzō utterly disdainful of these schemes and plots on the front lines. "With such meager courage, you think you can easily become Hokage Position? Ridiculous!"

The idea is good, but no matter how much one boasts about their achievements, it's all empty talk. Without matching strength, how can one convince the village's powerful members?

Even he understood this principle; otherwise, why would he have started researching Hashirama Cells before his body began to weaken, and even experimented on himself?

"Uchiha!"

At this moment, Shimura Danzō narrowed one eye, revealing a cold glint. Once he began to suspect that there was another pair of the Uchiha Clan Mangekyo in the Uchiha clan, he couldn't stop himself from getting involved.

After all, the seed of doubt, once planted, is destined to take root and sprout, and even if it rots, it will still be a thorn in one's heart.

"Ryoma Aburame, secretly send someone to keep an eye on things. I need to know exactly how far Uchiha Yoru's Sharingan has progressed."

"Yes!"

As Shimura Danzō voice echoed, a dark figure suddenly appeared in the dimly lit secret room, nodded respectfully, and then disappeared.

"The most suspicious person among those with the Mangekyo right now is Uchiha Fugaku, and the other one is you!"

Thinking of the Mangekyo Sharingan's immense power, a greedy glint appeared in the one eye that Shimura Danzō revealed. Uchiha Fugaku's identity was somewhat special; after all, he was the head of a clan and possessed considerable strength. He rarely left the village unless there was a major emergency.

Therefore, he found it difficult to find an opportunity to test the waters, and another suspect was Uchiha Yoru, which was a good opportunity for him to investigate.

Among the Uchiha Clan, Uchiha Yoru is undoubtedly the most dazzling genius at present, even overshadowing the original genius of Uchiha Shisui.

Therefore, it is reasonable for Shimura Danzō to suspect that Uchiha Yoru Mangekyo; the Orochimaru incident may have been the root cause of the huge emotional turmoil.

As for Uchiha Shisui? When he thought of that brat, Shimura Danzō couldn't help but sneer. According to his investigation, although his strength was not bad, he was the least suspicious.

There were no deaths of relatives or friends involved. As for the impact of the Orochimaru Incident? He was at most a subordinate, how could he compare to Uchiha Yoru?

Orochimaru got into trouble, and Uchiha Shisui, a mere brat, had an emotional outburst and activated the Mangekyo? That's bullshit. They're not even father and son. Uchiha Yoru was at least his master and disciple.
