"... I am resurrected."
Seimei's first sentence.
There was a hint of hoarseness in his voice, as if his fingertips were scratching rough sandpaper, as if decades of silence were broken at this moment.
He slowly looked around, his eyes passing over En Oyashiro and Chino, and finally landed on Uchiha Jun.
There was a hint of surprise in those eyes - he could see that the young man in front of him was the one who dominated everything.
"You... resurrected me?"
Seimei's voice brought back a hint of tentative hesitation.
Uchiha Jun didn't answer, just looked Seimei up and down.
Rinnegan turned slightly in his eye sockets. Through the surface of Seimei's body, Uchiha Jun saw the true face of this 'resurrection' drama!
That's not real flesh and blood.
Seimei's body is composed of dense mechanical structures--
The bones are a metal skeleton, the muscles are precision gears and cables, the skin is a simulated material that is extremely close to real touch, and on his chest, a fist-sized core is emitting a faint light.
--Obviously, this resurrection mechanism is the product of utilizing the linkage effect of the fusion of four artifacts.
"Bringing a corpse back to life...Impure World Reincarnation?" Uchiha Jun said softly.
Seimei was slightly startled when he heard this, and then he did not show any signs of decline. Instead, he said with a proud tone, "Interesting, I didn't expect that your eyes can see such detail?"
Seimei looked down at his hands, clenched his fists lightly, and felt the touch from the mechanical body. "Yes! The core mechanism of this resurrection technique was created by me with all my life's efforts. It is similar to 'fixing the soul in an artificial body' - with four artifacts as the skeleton, huge chakra as flesh and blood... a simulated puppet body!"
"Now I am no longer a weak flesh and blood body! But a perfect mechanical body!!"
"... What's the upper limit? And why can't you fix your soul on your body? Is it because you don't want to, or because you're not capable enough?"
Uchiha Jun heard the words and asked, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he pointed straight to the point, leaving Seimei speechless.
Although Seimei himself prefers a mechanical body, it is actually because Seimei cannot put his soul into the body to achieve 'rebirth'.
What I said just now was just to save my respect.
Hearing Uchiha Jun's doubts, Seimei was also a little annoyed and put on airs about his qualifications.
"You bastard! How many years have you lived? You thought you knew how to forge ninja tools, and you came here to question me?!"
"... You seem to have misunderstood something."
Looking at the angry Seimei in front of him and the long snake-like soft sword waiting for an opportunity behind him, Uchiha Jun was sweating a little. jpd.
I originally thought it was a serious 'BOSS direct hire', but I didn't expect that the talent I planned to recruit thought that I could be the 'seniority'. It seems necessary to let Seimei in front of me recognize who the big and small kings are.
"Susanoo!"
"Here comes the little pinch!"
The next moment, a terrifying, almost substantial amount of chakra spewed out from Uchiha Jun's body!
The lavender chakra swept around like a storm, quickly condensing and shaping around Uchiha Jun!
First there was a huge rib-like skeleton, then muscle fibers, and finally covered with a thick shell - a huge Susanoo arm made of pure chakra, condensed out of thin air behind Uchiha Jun!
That arm was several times larger than his entire body, and the chakra burning on its five finger bones exuded an aura that was enough to distort the air!
The original calmness and confidence on Seimei's face completely solidified at this moment.
"Wait, wait--"
I haven't finished speaking yet.
Uchiha Jun controlled the Susanoo arm, moving towards Seimei at a speed that seemed slow but actually impossible to dodge.
Seimei instinctively wants to dodge - his mechanical body is equipped with the highest speed maneuvering system he designed during his lifetime, and its theoretical reaction speed is comparable to that of Elite Jonin level Body Flicker Technique.
But the speed of that Susanoo arm exceeded his reaction limit!
"Pfft--!"
A dull clenching sound.
Seimei's entire body was tightly held in the palm of his hand by the five giant phalanges of Susanoo's arm!
That force is strong enough to crush a piece of granite into powder!
"Kaka--"
"Uh--!!"
The metal skeleton in Seimei's body made a "crunching" sound as it could withstand the limit. Seimei struggled desperately, trying to activate the chakra in his body to break free - but his Elite Jonin level chakra.
In front of Uchiha Jun's Susanoo, it's like an ant trying to overturn Elephant, unable to even shake it!
"Let, let go--!"
"It turned out to be Mangekyō Sharingan!! I give up! Let me go!"
Seimei, who was pinched, quickly begged for mercy. He had actually seen the battle between Madara Uchiha and Senju Hashirama before his death. The towering physical chakra was really terrifying. It was that shocking glimpse that made him make up his mind.
Even if you become a cold machine without feeling, you must abandon the weak body that can be seen at a glance!
I originally thought that I could outlast a monster with eyes like this, but unexpectedly another one popped out. What a trick of fate!
"Understand the situation clearly. The reason why I resurrected you is just because I am interested in your ninja tool forging skills. I plan to recruit you. I will provide funds, shelter, and wages in exchange for your skills and loyalty."
"That's all. Don't mess with me about your qualifications. When it comes to qualifications, I am the only one with seniority! Do you understand?"
Seeing that Seimei decisively gave in, Uchiha Jun didn't make any trouble, and directly removed Susanoo and said.
"Understood! Understood! Isn't it just a part-time job? When I was alive, I often made ninja tools for Five Great Ninja Villages! You are guaranteed to be satisfied!!"
Seimei, who had regained his freedom, gasped and responded quickly. Even though he had a mechanical body and didn't feel anything, the big hand seal he just fired scared him, a pampered 'veteran'.
The elderly cannot withstand being frightened. If they were made of flesh and blood, they would probably have a heart attack if they were frightened.
At the same time, Seimei felt a little bitter in his heart.
I originally thought that I was resurrected from the dead this time, reborn in my second life, and survived the two beasts Madara Uchiha and Senju Hashirama. I was able to use my mechanical body to sweep away Shinobi World and be myself again!
Unexpectedly, I still have to work part-time, which is quite unlucky.
"It's good to understand, well... although your strength is a bit weak, and it's only at the level of Elite Jonin, you don't rely on strength. So, I'll take you to find a giant mechanical structure later. If you can understand it thoroughly and use it."
"How about I give you 20 million yuan in living expenses every month and several hundred million more in project funds?"
"How much?!!"
