All Talk, but the Body Is Honest! (Continued)
Initially, the evacuation of the villagers was handled by a temporarily organized ninja unit, but this responsibility was later transferred to the Police Force.
The First Shinobi World War was so chaotic that the boundaries between villages were almost non-existent. Hidden Leaf Village organized its residents to seek refuge there on several occasions to prevent unforeseen events, and the Police Force played an important role at that time.
This department was indeed established due to political struggles, but once it was operational, it played an irreplaceable role in the stability of Hidden Leaf Village.
In the original timeline, the Police Force disappeared after the Uchiha Clan was wiped out, but Hidden Leaf Village later re-established the department.
The difference between having it and not having it is quite significant.
Uchiha Shingen followed the passage step by step up to the observation deck.
As the altitude increased, the Hokage appeared closer, while the streets began to seem distant, and the people on the streets became mere black dots.
The viewing platform is usually frequented by tourists and villagers with children.
If you see a large group of children, it must be an organization from the Ninja Academy.
However, the observation deck was rather deserted today.
The war ended not long ago, so there are no tourists here right now.
This battle was fought rather fiercely.
The battle against Leaf Village crippled Iwa and Kirigakure villages. Although Kirigakure's home base was not attacked, its dispatched troops also suffered heavy losses, with a conservative estimate of losing nearly half of its ninja.
However, when the contract was signed, Uchiha Shingen always felt that the Kirigakure side was barely holding back their clap and celebration.
So much so that even though they tried hard to appear sad, the people from Leaf Village didn't really feel the sadness. As a result, what was supposed to be a scene of the victors exploiting the vanquished turned into a bizarre scene of people from the same hometown meeting and bursting into tears.
All I can say is that when it comes to creating atmosphere, you have to look to Hidden Mist Village; as in previous years, they've taken an unconventional approach.
Uchiha Shingen stood on the observation deck and looked at the four Hokage one by one.
Hmm, the second son's head looks easier to step on.
There's no way around it; everyone else's heads are bald, but this guy insists on wearing something, which adds a layer of solid ground to his head for no reason.
Uchiha Shingen was a man who respected buffs, so he jumped up.
Sitting cross-legged atop the Tobirama, the view of the village from this vantage point is truly beautiful.
The post-war reconstruction plan for Hidden Leaf Village has begun. From here, you can see that the village has become a huge construction site, bustling with activity. Further away, you can see that the city walls have been almost completely rebuilt.
Buildings are considered fixed assets, and their depreciation is very high.
But that's not the main problem. Because the construction industry's acceptance standards are constantly becoming stricter, under the premise that everyone is seriously building houses, the later a building is built, the higher the technical standards will be adopted.
If you can exchange it for something else, don't hoard it.
Thanks to this war, Hidden Leaf Village was able to undergo a thorough and complete renovation.
Moreover, the elimination of demolition costs significantly reduces expenses!
Since it was bombed by the enemy, there is no additional compensation.
"That's good." Uchiha Shingen nodded, his expression wistful. "This is precious peace."
"It would be even better if the boss didn't stop me." The voice of the Senju Muzoku came from behind him.
Uchiha Shingen didn't bother turning around because Kaguya Otsutsuki was urging him to "hurry up."
Urge, urge, urge! (This is a vulgar expression, implying someone is being pressured or urging
I'm using my own Chakra, what's the rush?
Knowing to some extent why Kaguya Otsutsuki was urging him on, Uchiha Shingen began to suspect that this world was about to take a different storyline.
After Kaguya Otsutsuki stopped hiding her connection with him, he realized that this Ōtsutsuki Clan was a disgrace to the Ōtsutsuki Clan family!
However, it's good that it's shameful!
He'd seen so much on his first playthrough, enough for Kaguya to grind through.
Adding to my playlist, he's the peace ambassador.
"That's for you, you idiot. What era are we living in? Still playing like that?" Uchiha Shingen shifted his position to the side, then patted the person next to him. "Sit down and talk."
"What era? Aren't there still the same people all the time?" said the Senju Muzoku. "I don't have as much time as you to adjust."
The Senju Muzoku sat down, then gazed at the beautiful scenery below, its eyes wandering.
"Didn't you come up earlier?" Uchiha Shingen asked.
"No, I'm being watched closely by the second brother, I don't have time." Senju Muzoku became more and more delighted as he looked at it, "This is completely different from reading comics."
Uchiha Shingen nodded and said no more.
Having just completed my second playthrough, I felt quite disoriented when I returned to this place and saw Leaf Village with its completely different scenery.
However, after so many years, he has gotten used to it.
"Thinking about it this way, it does seem a bit strange." Senju Muzoku before saying, "For me, it's just a matter of closing and opening my eyes, and then it becomes like my own Shadow Clone."
The feeling of Shadow Clone is not unfamiliar to a ninja who can do Shadow Clone.
After all, there's always feedback.
But people like Uchiha Shingen and Senju Muzoku.
"What is the Pure Land like?" Uchiha Shingen asked.
"I have absolutely no memory of that." Senju Muzoku and said with certainty, "But it's definitely not something that happens naturally. In my current state, I can sense that there's Chakra all over there during battle, and it's identifiable, meaning there can only be one of me. If this isn't man-made, I'll chop off my own penis on live stream."
"But I'm here too, and yet you appeared." Uchiha Shingen ignored this nonsense and continued, "Perhaps what's in the Pure Land isn't a soul at all, but just information recorded by Chakra."
"Who knows? Go ask Hagoromo Otsutsuki. There's no need to study this kind of thing. Let's figure out how to give the eldest and second eldest brothers the Rinne Rebirth. They definitely haven't reincarnated. If they're alive, they're truly alive."
"Definitely. With the boss's personality, there's no way he would research reincarnation." Uchiha Shingen laughed.
"And the second brother, he likes to pretend to be bad and shameless to fool people." Senju Muzoku laughed too, "But he was the first to discover this."
"The boss found out too?"
"That arrogant second brother, when will he ever learn to hide anything from the eldest brother?"
The two fell silent again.
After a long pause, it was Uchiha Shingen spoke first.
"When the Chakra comes together later, will it be me who withdrew my own Chakra, or will it be you who's possessed?"
"No, it's only been a few years, and I've become so sentimental? Time really is a cruel mistress."
"... Never mind, let's get down to business."
Uchiha Shingen raised his right hand, and seeing this, Senju Muzoku raised his left hand.
The moment their palms touched, the Chakra within Senju Muzoku's body was transferred to Uchiha Shingen.
After a while, obvious cracks began to appear on the body of the Senju Muzoku creature.
This is a sign that the Impure World Reincarnation body is beginning to collapse after losing a large amount of Chakra.
According to the generally accepted principle of the Impure World Reincarnation, once the soul loses its Chakra support, it will return to the Pure Land.
The essence of the voluntary return is that after the soul breaks free from the shackles of this Ninjutsu, it is pulled back by the power of the Pure Land.
Breaking free from the shackles of Ninjutsu is different from breaking free from the control of the caster; Uchiha Madara in the original timeline belonged to the latter.
Since Uchiha Shingen and Senju Muzoku were the same person, they naturally harbored doubts about the Pure Land, and thus adopted a different approach.
A brief interruption of connection with the Pure Land.
Whether the Senju Muzoku before us is a soul or Chakra can also be confirmed.
The two, each with their own mind and body, were simultaneously absorbing Chakra and outputting it at full speed. The speed at which the Chakra was transferred was so fast that it exceeded the speed at which the Pure Land power was extending again.
From the perspective of the Senju Muzoku, just before he sensed that he was about to be "captured" again by that world, his last bit of Chakra was finally drained.
The body, stripped of its Chakra, turned to dust on the spot, and after the dust settled, the body of a sound ninja was revealed.
Uchiha Shingen coldly watched this scene, carefully examining the Chakra within his body.
After the Chakra from the first time entered his body, it seemed to encounter some kind of barrier, and its flow was somewhat awkward, but this was only for a moment, and it quickly and smoothly merged into Uchiha Shingen's body.
The next moment, the same feedback effect as when the Shadow Clone was dispelled appeared.
Once hazy fragments of memory have become complete and clear.
At the same time, the vague memories of the Pure Land that Senju Muzoku possessed also surfaced in Uchiha Shingen's mind.
He suddenly had a flash of inspiration and realized that this memory was being transmitted to another person with whom he had a spiritual connection.
In her mental world, Kaguya Otsutsuki, who was engrossed in watching a TV series, saw this memory that was suddenly and incongruously inserted into her life.
This was the first time that Uchiha Shingen had voluntarily opened up his memories to her.
Actually, the reason she used Hyuga Hanabi to transmit her spirit was because Uchiha Shingen suddenly increased the protection of the spirit.
Because of the great distance, the projection of her mental power was limited. When Uchiha Shingen actively protected his mental world, and without sufficient medium, her ability to browse was also restricted—it was no longer possible to do so silently, as she would be detected.
After meeting with Uchiha Shingen, the situation improved somewhat. Uchiha Shingen protected smaller areas, and he established a minimal level of mental connection with her.
She can now communicate with Uchiha Shingen at any time, and she can continue to access many of Uchiha Shingen's memories.
But this was indeed the first time I had ever proactively shared a memory with her.
Kaguya Otsutsuki opened it out of curiosity.
The next moment, upon seeing her from his memories, his languid expression vanished completely.
"Hagoromo, you even had this trick up your sleeve..." Kaguya Otsutsuki's voice seemed devoid of warmth.
She felt increasingly disheartened.
What terrible things did she do to raise such a monstrous child?
Unfortunately, she is still unable to escape.
It seems that the first thing she will do after escaping is not to release the Infinite Tsukuyomi, but to find this so-called Pure Land and the Hagoromo hidden within it!
However, she was also somewhat happy.
Uchiha Shingen actually showed this to her on his own initiative; indeed, her charm is irresistible.
Hmph, Uchiha Shingen, he says no but his body says yes!
"Very well, it seems you have realized my greatness, Uchiha Shingen. I have decided to reward you."
Overjoyed, Kaguya Otsutsuki decided to send a huge rocket as a reward, so that Uchiha Shingen would know what it meant to be the number one goddess on the fan list.
Hmm, these terms are really interesting!
But what should we tip?
Kaguya Otsutsuki rolled over on the bed, stretching out her limbs comfortably, having finished her thoughts.
This little guy likes Ninjutsu, so let's reward him with ninjutsu.
However, people in this era generally lack the means to learn her techniques; only that one aspect still has a slight possibility.
"I'll give you the method to learn the Eighty Gods Vacuum Attack!"
Ōtsutsuki Clan waved his hand and sent the rocket as a reward.
After a long while, there was still no response from his inner world.
Huh? This is outrageous! Where's the acknowledgments?!
Kaguya Otsutsuki quickly checked the wiring—no problem, the cable was working perfectly.
"Uchiha Shingen!" Kaguya Otsutsuki roared in fury. She couldn't tolerate her servant's capriciousness. "Why don't you thank me!"
"Big sister, I'm digesting my Chakra." In the spiritual world, Uchiha Shingen's sigh echoed. "Can you watch your show first? Believe me, I'll go berserk and die right here."
"Can Chakra go awry?" Kaguya Otsutsuki was taken aback. She had seen this term before, in a powerful world.
Uchiha Shingen's original world was a place where he conquered the stars and visited many strange and wonderful worlds. That powerful world was probably one of them. Unfortunately, his memories were incomplete, and he could not see the complete process. He only knew that such a world existed.
So, does that rule also apply to Chakra?
Oh, not having the bloodline of the Ōtsutsuki Clan is really inconvenient.
"Alright, but once you've digested it, you must thank me properly."
"Definitely, definitely. By the way, what file did you just send me?"
"See for yourself," Kaguya Otsutsuki said with a hint of smugness, "You'll regret not being more respectful to me earlier!"
