Shinsei quietly left the grove, leaving the "strange" mother and son alone.
About 20 minutes later, Uchiha Mikoto, looking dazed and with red eyes, left the place.
Uchiha Itachi also emerged from the woods. His expression was normal. He looked at Shinsei and bowed slightly. "Thank you for letting me see my mother again."
"You've resurrected me, a sinner of the Uchiha Clan, surely you have something you want me to do? Although I'm already dead, please speak Shinsei if there's anything I can do for Konoha."
It's so refreshing to talk to smart people; it was worth it for Shinsei to arrange a meeting between Uchiha Itachi and Uchiha Mikoto.
Shinsei said, "Thank you, Itachi-san. I'll get straight to the point. Did you ever hear about Ryūchi Cave when you were in Akatsuki?"
"I've heard of it. I'm sorry, I don't have much information. This matter was handled personally by Obito Uchiha, and only he and Kabuto Yakushi know about the White Snake Sage."
"Uchiha Itachi answered."
"The matter I need to ask you is about Ryūchi Cave and the energy of the Dragon Vein. These two things likely point to the same group of people."
I'm sure Mr. Itachi has heard that my Dragon Vein energy can travel through the world, Mikoto is someone I brought from another world to visit.
The Rōran ruins, which previously generated Dragon Vein energy, seem to be the site where someone is searching for this energy.
I don't know if they can succeed, but if they do, it will pose a huge threat to us. If they find new allies or capture One-Tail, the current balance will be completely broken.
Normally, this kind of thing is handled by Konoha's Anbu, but as you know, White Zetsu incredibly omnipresent, and the opponent is far too powerful. I don't have a suitable candidate. After thinking it over, it seems that Mr. Itachi is more suitable."
Uchiha Itachi nodded. "I understand. I will investigate this matter."
He looked up and saw a young boy heading towards the Uchiha's territory in the distance.
His eyes glazed over slightly before he disappeared back into the woods. "I'll help you gather intelligence, and please, Shinsei- kun, persuade Sasuke to get my eyes as soon as possible."
Before Shinsei could finish speaking, Uchiha Itachi had already disappeared into the woods, leaving only the faint echo of "Thank you."
Sending Uchiha Itachi to investigate the Dragon Vein energy was something Shinsei had considered for a long time, and he was the only one most suitable for this task.
First, Uchiha Itachi was very familiar with Akatsuki; second, his own strength was also strong enough. After Impure World Reincarnation, Itachi was no longer burdened by his physical body, and his strength reached its peak.
Aside from a few exceptionally strong individuals in the Shinobi World, he was always able to escape unscathed.
Moreover, as a former elite member of the Anbu, Uchiha Itachi possessed exceptional intelligence-gathering abilities.
Although Shinsei doesn't agree with Uchiha Itachi's actions of wiping out the Uchiha Clan, having read the original Shinsei, he knows that Uchiha Itachi was ultimately devoted to Konoha, only his methods were somewhat extreme.
Sasuke saw Shinsei standing at the edge of the woods and asked with a hint of suspicion, "What are you doing here?"
I met an old friend.
Shinsei ignored Shinsei's pretentious explanation and instead took out a map Sasuke Konoha.
"The teacher said we can choose any of these places." Before he could finish speaking, a rare look of worry appeared on Sasuke's face.
"What's wrong?"
"I have no money." Sasuke's words were concise and to the point.
That's true. Most of the Uchiha clan members who came to this world were originally Uchiha who weren't doing very well. A considerable number of them were commoners and hadn't even Sharingan.
If it weren't for the fact that they were from the Uchiha, no one would be able to tell them apart if they were thrown into a crowd.
Although Tsunade had already offered discounts on these properties, the total amount was still enough to scare away ordinary people.
Shinsei said innocently, "Why are you looking at me like that? I don't have any money either! My project still has a huge shortfall!"
Sasuke, who had never worried about money before, has surprisingly started to take it seriously.
His salary plus the rewards for his tasks were more than enough to support himself, but it still couldn't fill the huge gap in the supply of these land plots.
"I know someone who's rich! You can definitely get it from them if you ask!"
"Who?"
" Sakura!"
Facing Sasuke's suspicious gaze, Shinsei explained, "I've long suspected she's embezzled my research funds! I just haven't caught her red-handed. You should try; you'll definitely get it back."
They were all taught by the same teacher. In addition to teaching her students Ninjutsu and theoretical knowledge, Tsunade inevitably influenced them through her own actions. In particular, she often brazenly embezzled Konoha's funds in the name of several students.
Sakura naturally followed suit and secretly set her sights on the research funding. Her methods were still somewhat clumsy, and Shinsei noticed something amiss.
Fortunately, she was still timid, and besides, it wasn't Shinsei's own money, so he could only turn a blind eye to this kind of thing. After all, he was counting on her to work for him and help advance the Ninjutsu development project.
However, there's always someone who can overcome something else, and Sakura's nemesis is Sasuke. If Sasuke asks for it, Sakura will probably have to pay for it herself.
Sasuke stood there lost in thought, perhaps debating whether or not to become a "kept man."
Shinsei put the Uchiha Clan's affairs aside and finally went home, lying down in his loyal bed. These past few days had been filled with one thing after another, leaving him no time to rest.
Having transmigrated to the present, he had long since passed the stage of being excited about pursuing great power.
When will things truly be peaceful? He also longed for a simple life, free and unrestrained, with a beautiful wife, a lovely daughter, and an obedient dog, where he could freely pursue any projects that interested him.
Just as he was lost in thought, his mother, standing at the top of the stairs on the second floor, shouted, " Shinsei, your friend is looking for you!"
"Coming!" Shinsei shouted back, getting out of bed. Well, here we go again. The days of truly being able to lie down completely are still a long and arduous journey!
As they descended the stairs, a tall, imposing young man stood at the entrance of the convenience store. His striking green bodysuit was particularly eye-catching. Don't be mistaken, this wasn't Might Guy, but Shinsei's "good friend," Hidan!
Seeing Shinsei come downstairs, Hidan was very happy. He grabbed Shinsei and shouted to Shinsei's father, Nobita, "Uncle, I'm taking Shinsei out!"
Nobita responded enthusiastically, but at the same time, he wondered to himself: Do I know this person? Why does he act like we're so close?
Hidan put his arm around Shinsei's shoulder, and seeing Shinsei's somewhat lazy appearance, he said with dissatisfaction:
"Hey! Shinsei! You're wasting your youth like this!"
We should get our blood pumping! Let's run 50 laps around Konoha! If we can't, we'll walk 1,000 steps upside down!
