Yushu, Honest Beyond Compare

Did we really time travel?

The Shinobi World Japanese, and while the alien Ōtsutsuki Clan doesn't know what Ren speaks, he certainly doesn't speak Mandarin.

When standard Chinese language echoed in Ren's mind, Ren immediately overturned his previous assumptions.

The unfamiliar, eerie, and powerful environment, coupled with the hostile presence within, caused Ren to instantly choose to follow his heart.

"I am Uchiha Yushu, the other one. Can you sense me? I think I am a human being!"

While also answering in Chinese language, Ren was essentially talking to himself in a vacuum.

At that moment, he didn't think it was foolish, because the other party definitely had a way of hearing what he said.

Having not spoken Chinese language for over 20 years and living in a foreign language environment for so long, Ren's Mandarin is now quite halting.

The pronunciation is fine; after all, some things are ingrained in one's soul.

The grammar needs some improvement.

The moment he said it, Ren himself felt embarrassed.

I silently made a decision: once we're safe, I must review my Chinese language and pick it up again; after all, one shouldn't forget their roots.

Fortunately, the Chinese language is not only profound and extensive, but also incredibly inclusive.

Despite the incoherent expression, the other party understood, and then another voice resounded from the depths of Ren's heart.

"Can!"

After thinking for a moment, Ren canceled the Surtur template, raised his hands high to show that he had no hostile intentions.

Seeing that the other party did not react, Ren activated his Mangekyō Sharingan.

As true energy flowed into the Sharingan, Shinato activated it, creating air and wind in this void of emptiness.

A gentle breeze swept by, and everything around him became crystal clear in Ren's perception.

Even with the Sharingan's Dōjutsu, Ren still couldn't detect the other person's presence, but he did discover something else.

Beneath an area covered by a mass of true energy, Ren 'saw' a small snake.

Ren, who had once explored the moon with Orochimaru, instantly recognized who this was.

Ren was able to recognize that this was not his own Orochimaru.

There was nothing shocking or impossible about it. Since Orochimaru could appear here, he must have evaded the surveillance of the 'Heavenly Eye', escaped from the moon, and gone to the Dragon Vein.

Ren did not believe that the 'Heavenly Eye' was foolproof, since Tobirama Senju was able to detect the anomaly back then.

Although improvements were made later, the possibility that Orochimaru could bypass its surveillance cannot be ruled out.

Now it seems that the possibility has become a reality.

Without giving it much thought, the ever-present and constant threat made Ren clearly aware that this was not his territory.

"Thank you. I am Uchiha Yushu, and he is Orochimaru. From the ninja world, we... why... we don't know!"

Ren's answer was much more fluent and accurate than the first time.

After Shinato became unable to detect the other's presence, Ren became increasingly obedient.

He was telling the truth; he and Orochimaru were indeed from the ninja world.

As for why, Ren really didn't know. In his mind, the ability of Dragon Veins to travel through time was already incredibly powerful.

This genuine time travel was beyond Ren's comprehension, and he truly had no idea why.

After hearing Ren's words, the other party did not respond immediately. Instead, after more than ten seconds, another voice resounded in Ren's mind.

"Captain, you're not lying!"

The fact that Ren could overhear the other party's internal communication was clearly intentional.

This is a blatant form of deterrence, clearly telling Ren that we have the means to verify the truth of everything he says.

"Send two men to bring them up!"

"Yes!" ×2

He didn't hide it from Ren either; the other person's voice had just echoed in his mind.

Ren then saw two dark circular areas appear in the sky, followed by two beams of blue light shooting out.

Within those two beams of blue light, Ren sensed a familiar presence.

The blue light contained some traces of true essence, but it was mostly complex and obscure.

The light gradually faded, leaving the dark area above unchanged, but two figures appeared below.

Yes, two humans.

Seeing this, Ren felt slightly relieved.

The two were dressed in clothing of an unknown material, resembling combat suits, with their long hair hanging straight down, and they walked towards Ren's location.

In Ren's perception, these two people did not possess any special energy, appearing just like ordinary people from his previous life.

They are slightly inferior to ordinary people in the Shinobi World, since even ordinary people in the Shinobi World still have a small amount of Chakra in their bodies.

There are two possibilities: one is that, despite having a human appearance, the other is indeed an extraterrestrial being.

Secondly, the other party has sophisticated methods to prevent detection.

In comparison, Ren more towards the latter possibility.

Ren still felt threatened, but he was certain it wasn't coming from the two of them.

"Please wear this. Also, tell your companion to dispel the transformation spell and put on the other one, otherwise we will take coercive measures."

One of them, as if by magic, produced two objects that resembled bracelets.

It resembled jade but wasn't jade, and it resembled wood but wasn't wood. Ren couldn't figure out the material, but he still obediently cooperated and wore it on his left wrist.

In an instant, Ren realized that his internal energy had fallen into a state of stagnation, just as Ren thought he had to withstand the cosmic rays head-on.

The bracelet emitted a faint blue light, and then Ren realized that he could breathe freely again, and the rays from the universe were completely blocked.

"That's quite humane," Ren thought to himself.

How can I notify my companion?

Unable to mobilize his true energy, he could not use Shinato. Although he could still communicate through lip movements or sign language, Ren wanted to know what the other party planned to do.

"Just say it!"

These words were heard directly by Ren.

How amazing, is it all because of this?

Ren glanced at the bracelet on his left wrist, then spoke without further hesitation.

"Lord Orochimaru, please cooperate with the owner of this place, first deactivate your transformation, and then put on the same bracelet as me, otherwise the other party may resort to force!"

He said it twice. The first time was in Chinese language, and after he finished, Ren smiled shyly and said it a second time in Japanese.

Not knowing if the other party could decipher Japanese, Ren specifically spoke in Chinese language.

As for the purpose, since Orochimaru hitched a ride, it shouldn't be a problem to use him as a scapegoat!
