Resurrection!

Hyuga Shin thought hard for a long while, but he could not come up with any good method. For a moment, it gave him something of a headache.

During this time, Tsunade had asked him several times when Nawaki could be revived. It had almost become a knot in her heart; she practically wanted to ask once every day.

Now, the timing was suitable enough. He already had a method to counterbalance the Six Paths, so Hyuga Shin stopped delaying and prepared to revive Nawaki first.

As for a universal method of restraint, it would be difficult to make any breakthrough in such a short time.

Next, Hyuga Shin began repairing Nawaki's Internal Organs, which were soaking in the culture fluid.

For him, who had mastered the power of immortal cultivation, and in such an unreasonable ninja world besides, this was not a difficult matter.

In the later stage, Naruto, who was only half a step into Six Paths level, could use Yang Release to make an eye grow out of thin air for Kakashi. Hyuga Shin at this moment was stronger than him in every aspect!

Yin-Yang Release was nothing more than a higher form of utilization and transformation of Natural Energy.

What he cultivated was a self-created immortal cultivation system, and when it came to his understanding and application of Natural Energy, he was no inferior to the great sages.

Thus, repairing Nawaki's Internal Organs did not take Hyuga Shin too much time.

Next came the actual procedure to bring Nawaki back.

However, it could not be done in the Leaf Camp. He had to choose a place farther away, with fewer people, and safe.

Otherwise, if the Six Paths were driven into a corner and forcibly controlled the nearby ninja to wrench the plot back onto its proper track, all his work would have been for nothing.

He always considered things from the worst-case scenario. Only then could he make enough preparations to deal with any crisis. This was a habit he had developed during the Warring States Period.

Although he did not fear the Sage of Six Paths, and a confrontation with him was inevitable, Hyuga Shin still found trouble annoying.

Afterward, Hyuga Shin notified Tsunade to bring Nawaki's body with her, preparing to carry out the rescue in a dense mountain forest more than a hundred kilometers away.

There was a good place there. When he came, he had seen an abandoned cave that would be just right to use.

Tsunade was very happy after hearing this and hurried off to prepare, notifying Orochimaru on the way.

After Orochimaru heard about it, he also made time to rush over.

He still cared a great deal about this disciple, Nawaki, and he also wanted to see Hyuga Shin's methods for himself.

This was a rare opportunity.

There were far too many things about Hyuga Shin, this old antique from the Warring States Period, that stirred his curiosity.

The three of them set out at once, traveling light and simple.

"Elder Shin, are you confident?"

"Grandpa Shin, you must be confident, right?"

"A small matter. Solving the problem basically won't be too difficult, but when the time comes, I'll need your cooperation in case anything unexpected happens."

Hyuga Shin led the two of them swiftly toward their destination, answering their questions along the way.

When Orochimaru and Tsunade heard Hyuga Shin's answer, their hearts also settled.

More than two hours later, the three arrived at the high mountain covered in dense forest and found the cave.

After a simple cleanup, Tsunade took down the huge scroll she was carrying on her back, spread it on the ground, and began forming hand seals.

This was a Space Scroll used to temporarily store Nawaki's Incubation Pod.

Although Nawaki had been saved by Hyuga Shin, if his body was to remain alive, it still needed nutrients.

Bang! A puff of white smoke flashed, and an Incubation Pod as tall as a person appeared. Nawaki, his face pale and half his body blasted apart, quietly soaked in the culture fluid.

"What do we do next? Do we take Nawaki's body out directly, Grandpa Shin?" Tsunade stroked the Incubation Pod and asked with a face full of expectation.

"No rush. There are more important things to do right now. We need to finish the preparations first before we can proceed to the next step," Hyuga Shin responded calmly.

"Tsunade, Orochimaru, come forward. I need to put safeguards on you to avoid affecting Nawaki's revival."

Although they did not know why safeguards against them were needed to treat Nawaki, Orochimaru and Tsunade still cooperated and stepped forward.

Hyuga Shin first placed his hand on Orochimaru's shoulder, his mind highly focused. His divine sense entered his body, sensing all of Orochimaru's chakra as well as the Chakra Seed, probing for the Will of the Six Paths embedded within it.

Then he formed a seal with one hand. In an instant, a large number of sealing runes drilled into Orochimaru's body, making Orochimaru want to flee for a moment.

He felt that as Hyuga Shin laid down the Sealing Technique, the circulation of his chakra became heavy and sluggish, and he could not help but feel alarmed.

But out of trust in Hyuga Shin, Orochimaru still suppressed the doubts in his heart and quietly cooperated.

Tsunade, watching Hyuga Shin's actions from the side, was also somewhat confused. She did not understand why Hyuga Shin had to use a Sealing Technique on the two of them.

What necessary connection did this have to treating Nawaki?

However, considering that Hyuga Shin had his own plans, she did not ask further.

As long as Nawaki could be revived, Tsunade had no problem with anything.

Three minutes later, he finally completed the preliminary seal on the Will of the Six Paths inside Orochimaru's body. Afterward, he performed the same procedure on Tsunade.

"Elder Shin, this is a Sealing Technique aimed at chakra, isn't it? But it also doesn't seem to be completely that. My chakra hasn't been fully sealed. Still, this doesn't seem to have any necessary connection to treating Nawaki, does it?"

After Hyuga Shin finished sealing Tsunade, Orochimaru still voiced the doubts in his heart.

Tsunade also listened quietly from the side. Although she did not mind, that did not mean she was not curious.

"Don't worry. After this is over, I'll undo it for you. As for why, you'll know afterward." Hyuga Shin did not explain too much.

Once he came up with a method and let them discover it for themselves, it would be more convincing than any words.

"Now, Tsunade, take Nawaki out and clean up his body. Straighten out the connection points for all his missing organs as much as possible. Leave the rest to me."

Hyuga Shin took out the incubation bottle containing Nawaki's organs and gave Tsunade his instructions.

"Okay, Grandpa Shin!" Tsunade asked no more. She opened the Incubation Pod, took Nawaki's body out, and laid it on the flat ground, then began tidying it up.

Orochimaru stood to the side, his face thoughtful.

He was growing more and more interested in the truth of the Shinobi World that Hyuga Shin had spoken of.

It did not take long for Tsunade to finish treating Nawaki's wounds, and she waited quietly for the next step.

Hyuga Shin then took out the Internal Organs, which had long since been fully repaired, and installed them into Nawaki's body.

In Orochimaru and Tsunade's eyes, Hyuga Shin's hands were wrapped in a strange energy as he connected Nawaki's Internal Organs and their attachment points one by one, until everything was flawless.

Even Tsunade could not have done something so delicate on her own.

After more than ten minutes, Nawaki's organs were finally sorted out and installed. The remaining wounds were much simpler.

Hyuga Shin directly used his own energy, which was far higher-level than Yang Release Chakra, to stimulate the cells into rapid growth and reproduction.

In just over ten seconds, the damaged chest recovered completely, exactly as it had been before he was injured.

That made Tsunade and Orochimaru look forward to Nawaki's resurrection even more.

Next came the most important part.

Hyuga Shin first released the Infinite Life Lock he had previously cast on Nawaki's body, allowing his body and brand-new organs to connect and activating the body's vitality.

Because his body had been incomplete before, Nawaki's vitality was relatively weak. They waited more than two hours as his body gradually adapted and activated, and only then did his life force rise, his body also gaining vigor.

During that time, Tsunade was so anxious she paced in circles, constantly asking Hyuga Shin when Nawaki would wake up.

The more hope was right in front of her, the harder it was to stay calm. This was vividly reflected in Tsunade.

"Tsunade, calm down. Nawaki can't die anymore," Orochimaru could not help but advise her.

In his view, Tsunade was simply too concerned to think clearly.

"All right, his bodily vitality has recovered more or less. It's time to let the soul merge in and bring Nawaki back to life completely."

Hyuga Shin ignored the two of them and directly stepped forward, crouched down, and pressed his hand to Nawaki's forehead.

"Soul Lock, release!"

One crimson sealing rune after another was drawn out from Nawaki's mind, and gradually, the technique formula on his forehead vanished as well.

After some time, Nawaki's vibrant body and soul merged once more, and his life force was fully awakened.

"Am I dead?" Nawaki, who had awakened, murmured his first words.

Tsunade, who had been anxiously waiting at the side, instantly wept tears of joy!
