Dragon Life Reincarnation Technique

Liao Wu's heart slowly sank, and his eyes dimmed, as though he were a husband who loved sleeping in.

Obito grew frantic. Liao Wu had been controlled by Madara Uchiha's Sharingan.

Obito wasn't stupid. He now understood what kind of person the old man who had saved him was: the Ultimate Murder King, Madara Uchiha.

If Madara obtained Liao Wu's Forbidden Technique and restored his youth, he would destroy the Leaf Village.

Obito struggled with all his might, but ultimately couldn't break free of Tobi's control.

This bastard's strength is insane!

"Who are you?"

"&*&*#@!"

"(*´･д･)?"

Everyone present, including Black Zetsu, who was still hidden in the shadows, looked puzzled. They couldn't understand Liao Wu's accent at all.

Madara asked again, "What do you do?"

"I'm a tile breaker (Nakahara Gakunen)!"

They still couldn't understand him. What kind of accent was this?

The more Madara listened, the tighter his brows drew together.

"What are you trying to do?"

"Block the bridge! Come on! Block the bridge! Come on! (Nakahara Gakunen)"

"Cough, cough, cough—"

Madara was so furious that he could barely breathe. He looked as though he was about to die.

Black Zetsu was so anxious that he nearly jumped out to pat Madara's back and help him breathe. Madara could kick the bucket at any moment now.

"Damned brat! How dare you toy with me!"

Madara decided that Liao Wu hadn't been controlled by Illusion Technique at all. He released Liao Wu from the Illusion Technique and angrily activated the Lightning Release Chakra within his body.

"Brat, let's see if I can't fry you!"

The moment Liao Wu's Illusion Technique was dispelled, his scalp went numb. Madara had electrocuted him.

"Ancestor, stop electrocuting me! I'll talk! I'll tell you everything!"

A chill swept across Obito's scalp. Madara Uchiha had completely stopped pretending and exposed his bloodthirsty nature.

Liao Wu howled as Madara electrocuted him. Madara had lured him out of the village, and now he was being shocked as well.

This taught Liao Wu once again: never trust scammers!

After a while, Liao Wu told Madara the truth.

"Ancestor, it's not that I don't want to give you my life. I really can't do it."

Madara tapped his cane. "Drag him away. Bury him in the toilet."

Tobi immediately ran forward cheerfully.

Liao Wu hurriedly backed away and shouted, "Wait! I have something useful! I still have something useful!"

"What else do you have? Let me tell you this: if you can't restore my youth, you won't live to see tomorrow's sun."

Madara felt his old eyes growing blurry, and Liao Wu's image seemed doubled. He had used Illusion Technique on Liao Wu and then electrocuted him, which had clearly exhausted him.

He bitterly resented this aged and decaying body. How desperately he needed a young one!

Liao Wu swallowed, then said, "Ancestor, I know of a Forbidden Technique called Dragon Life Reincarnation Technique. It can sacrifice one's own life to make someone else young."

Madara stared at Liao Wu. "Are you trying to deceive me again, brat?"

Liao Wu hurriedly swore, "Ancestor, I really didn't lie this time. I swear on the honor of my ancestors for eight generations that if I'm lying, my ancestors will never know peace in the Pure Land."

Madara nodded. This time, he believed Liao Wu.

But he still had to electrocute him.

"Ahh—Ancestor, why are you shocking me again?"

"You insolent brat! Aren't your ancestors my elders? Don't swear by your ancestors again."

"Understood, understood!"

After things settled down for a while, Madara asked Liao Wu, "Can you use this technique?"

Liao Wu shook his head. "I can't."

Seeing that Madara was about to electrocute him again, Liao Wu hurriedly added, "But I know where it is. It's in Kusagakure. This technique is the unique Kekkei Genkai of 'Kusano Hana' from Kusagakure."

"Kusagakure? 'Kusano Hana'?"

Madara was baffled.

Madara's intelligence was actually quite comprehensive. He even knew how to dispel the Impure World Reincarnation developed by Senju Tobirama.

But he wasn't omnipotent. The Ninja World concealed many Life Secret Arts, yet Madara had focused only on his Life Rebirth and subconsciously overlooked those Forbidden Techniques.

Black Zetsu, hidden in the shadows, was equally puzzled. He had concealed himself for a thousand years without learning of this secret. How had Liao Wu found out?

Of course, Liao Wu had seen the theatrical film!

Liao Wu wasn't lying. In the Naruto theatrical film Blood Prison, Naruto had nearly been killed by Satoru. At the critical moment, Ryūsetsu had used the Dragon Life Reincarnation Technique to revive him.

The technique's actual effect was to revive someone on the verge of death. Madara, however, was on the verge of dying from old age and wanted to restore his youth.

He wanted to return to his absolute peak.

In the Original Work, Madara was revived and restored to youth through the Life Rebirth. Logically, reviving Madara should have brought him back as Old Madara.

After all, he had died of old age.

Yet he was revived at the peak of his life. The Life Rebirth had clearly revived him in his absolute prime.

Life Rebirth surpassed every other Life Secret Art. No wonder Madara wasn't interested in the other Life Secret Arts.

Madara took a deep breath and ordered White Zetsu, "Zetsu, go to Kusagakure and capture the person who can use this Forbidden Technique."

"Yes!"

Since Tobi had previously left Obito, Obito could speak again as well.

He cursed Liao Wu, "Liao Wu, do you know that you're harming people? How could you call yourself a Leaf medical ninja? You're a beast in human clothing!"

If you can't cure Madara, can't you at least cure me, Obito?

Liao Wu kicked Tobi away and converted the Chakra in his hand into Lightning Release Chakra.

"I'll shock you!"

"Ahhhhhh!"

"Liao Wu, you bastard! Since when could you use Lightning Style?"

The claim that Liao Wu could only use the Rasengan was incorrect.

Liao Wu's Chakra Natures were Yin, Yang, Fire, and Lightning.

He was one of the few Uchiha with Yang Release in his Chakra, which was also why he could become a medical ninja and learn Medical Ninjutsu.

Liao Wu had mastered several C-rank Fire Style Ninjutsu and Lightning Style Ninjutsu himself. They had been taught to him by Mikoto's father in his youth, but he had been unable to use them because of his body.

As for the Rasengan, he had developed it to trick Minato into teaching him the Flying Thunder God. But that old monkey Sarutobi had kept a close eye on him.

The moment Liao Wu developed his technique, the Anbu came to investigate. However, Liao Wu used the opportunity to bargain and get promoted to Chunin.

Otherwise, he would still have been a Genin in his thirties. He really would have needed to start over.

Now that Liao Wu had White Zetsu Cells in his body,

his Chakra Natures had gained Earth and Water, while his Yang Release had been greatly replenished.

He could train in even more Ninjutsu.

"Liao Wu, you treacherous dog! As a Leaf Ninja, I will never beg a rogue ninja like you for mercy."

Obito had the life force of a cockroach. No matter how much Liao Wu shocked him, he refused to bow his head.

"Hmph!"

Liao Wu snorted coldly. He had known for a long time that this guy was an ungrateful white-eyed wolf, so he had never expected anything from him.

At present, it was every man for himself. Liao Wu had to find a way to stall Madara if he wanted to protect himself.

If the Forbidden Technique of "Kusano Hana" in Kusagakure couldn't restore Madara's youth, Liao Wu still had another option.

Orochimaru's Living Corpse Reincarnation.

If all else failed, he would drag Orochimaru into the mess.

Even if he had to die, he would drag a group of people down with him.

Elsewhere, Madara couldn't help falling asleep. He was simply too old.

He had never really recovered after his battle with Hashirama. The Rinnegan awakened through the Senju Shinra Bansho Power was an even greater burden for Madara; once implanted, it would drain him to death.

That was why he had been recuperating at Nagato's side.

If he were in his prime, he could properly deal with an unfilial descendant like Liao Wu right now.

But at present, he could only electrocute him while believing half of what he said.

Leaf Village, Hokage Building.

"Sarutobi, who told you to summon Jiraiya, Tsunade, and Minato back? Don't you know that Cloud Village and Iwagakure are already itching to act now that they no longer fear them?"

"Danzo, I'm the Hokage. I don't need to explain my actions to you!"

Minato brought his squad to the Hokage Building to hand in their mission report before heading to the Mist Village Frontline. Hearing the arguing inside, he couldn't help but develop a headache.

"Three days, and they're still arguing. It seems Hokage-sama is under tremendous pressure this time."

Inside the Hokage Building,

Utatane Koharu and Mitokado Homura stood with Danzo as they pressured the Third Hokage.

"Hiruzen, you were truly too arbitrary this time. You ordered the execution of Uchiha Ryobu without consulting us."

"Do you know how furious the Daimyo was this time? He has already cut the village's war funding."

The Third Hokage exhaled a puff of smoke. "I will go to the capital and explain things to the Daimyo myself. But my decision was not wrong. Liao Wu's Forbidden Technique is an Evil Arts, a technique that absorbs the lives of others."

"As Hokage, I will never tolerate the existence of such an Evil Arts."

Danzo said, "Hiruzen, there is no such thing as good or evil Ninjutsu in this world! If the village obtained his Forbidden Technique, our old Ninjas could become young again."

"With those Ninjas replenishing our ranks, defeating those insignificant troublemakers would not be nearly as difficult as it is now."

The Third Hokage looked at Danzo. "You want to restore your youth, don't you, Danzo?"

Danzo's single eye fixed on Sarutobi. "And why not, Hiruzen? You're an old man in your fifties as well. Can you still lift Enma?"

The Third Hokage rose and slammed his palm onto the desk. "Even when I'm seventy or eighty, I'll still be able to lift Enma."

"Because as Hokage, my duty is to protect the village and its people. I will never trade the lives of villagers for my youth."

Danzo replied, "Hiruzen, we won't experiment on villagers. We can use bandits, robbers, or Ninjas from Enemy Countries."

The Third Hokage asked again, "What will you do once you've used them all up?"

"..."

Danzo was rendered speechless.

"Danzo, do you really think human lives are chives, that you can cut one batch and grow another?"

"All three of you, get out! I'll bear the Daimyo's pressure myself. But let me tell you this: no matter who it is in the village, if anyone tries to toy with life, I'll break his hands."

"Sarutobi, you'd better watch yourself. No matter what happens, you must resign and take responsibility this time."

When the Shinobi Hero's aura erupted, the three of them could only leave after dropping a few harsh words.

Danzo reviewed what had happened. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. He had been intimidated by Sarutobi's aura and failed to overpower him.

The Ninja World had never lacked people!
