Konoha: The thirty-year-old Uchiha is not motivated.

Konoha Hospital

Outside the emergency room at the end of the corridor, a large crowd had gathered. The doctors, clad in white coats, all wore worried expressions, but none dared to make a sound, for fear of disturbing the emergency surgery taking place inside.

"Director, didn't Mr. Yin say he was beyond saving? I've already notified the funeral home to prepare a full range of services!"

The head of the emergency department, trembling, wiped the damp sweat from his forehead and quietly asked the stern-faced hospital director beside him,

"Mr. Yin was referring to the situation where he doesn't intervene."

He glanced indifferently at the ashen-faced emergency room director, and sneered. This idiot only listened to half of what he was told. Mr. Yin hadn't even finished speaking when he rushed out to notify the morgue and funeral home. He must be desperate for a kickback.

"Have you thought about how you're going to withstand the wrath of the Senju clan?"

The head of emergency medicine felt a chill run down his spine upon hearing this. It seemed the dean was planning to make him a scapegoat.

"Director, you can't do this! I get kickbacks from the funeral home!"

"Shut up!"

Clang! —

"What's all the noise about? Can't you see there's surgery going on inside? Everyone, be quiet!"

Just as the dean's angry voice had started a commotion, the tightly closed doors of the emergency room were suddenly flung open, and Uchiha Gin, wearing a surgical mask, frowned with displeasure.

"Yes Yes Yes"

The doctors immediately nodded vigorously, and one of them even made a zipping motion at his own mouth.
"Honestly, doctors these days have absolutely no medical ethics."

After closing the door, Uchiha Gin, who knew a little about the shady dealings hidden within Konoha Hospital, shook his head with utter disdain.

As the saying goes, a gentleman loves money but earns it in a proper way. He also likes horses, but he would never use such despicable means to make money. Isn't a transaction between mutual consent better?

"Hey~ It's lucky you ran into me. If it were anyone else, you white-haired thing would probably only be able to meet me in Edo Tensei."

After criticizing the hospital, Uchiha Gin, still smelling the strong stench of blood, looked up and his gaze fell on the white-haired girl lying on the operating table in the emergency room, her life hanging in the balance.
At this moment, Senju Hisami's body was covered in charred burns, not a single patch of flesh was unscathed. The aroma of roasted meat made Uchiha Gin a little hungry.
Of course, that wasn't the most fatal thing. Just centimeters from her heart, a fatal penetrating wound pierced right through Senju Hisa's delicate body. The exposed flesh at the wound looked like it had been electrocuted, emitting a pungent odor.

"Tsk tsk tsk, how pitiful~"

Uchiha Gin shook his head with schadenfreude as he converted his chakra into a rich life force, pouring it into Senju Hishima's body, which was as fragile as a candle in the wind. A deep green light instantly enveloped him.

Nourished by life energy, Senju Hisa's severe burns were healing at a visible speed, and tender pink granulation tissue was sprouting from the horrific wound beside her heart.
"What kind of enemy has this guy encountered?"

Uchiha Gin, who was performing emergency treatment on Senju Hisama who was on the verge of death, suddenly asked in a low voice,
But there was no one else in the emergency room except him and the unconscious Senju Hisama. So why did he ask that?

"Don't play dead, or I'll tie your hands and feet and throw you to Shukaku."

Seeing that he received no response, Uchiha Gin frowned slightly, his voice carrying a hint of cold intimidation.

"Damn humans!"

No sooner had the words left his mouth than a shrill, angry voice, tinged with rage and fear, rang in Uchiha Gin's mind. Inside the Tailed Beast Card space, the Nine-Tails gritted its teeth in fury, the force almost grinding them all down to nothing.
"Why is there only half left? Where's the other half?"

Uchiha Gin's consciousness pierced through the barrier of the Tailed Beast Cards and landed in front of the clenched-teeth Kurama. Looking at the darker-colored Yin Kurama before him, a sense of curiosity arose in his heart.
"It's there, didn't you see it just now?"

Although the Nine-Tails was terrified, its pride as the strongest tailed beast forced it to raise its head, attempting to preserve its last shred of dignity.

"What kind of decent person would stare at that spot?"

Following the direction indicated by Yin Nine-Tails, Uchiha Gin couldn't help but roll his eyes. It turned out that the missing Yang Nine-Tails was actually hiding inside Senju Hisama's dantian in her lower abdomen.

However, compared to the smooth, healthy Yin Nine-Tailed Fox, the Yang Nine-Tailed Fox was in a much worse state, basically in the same condition as its owner.

Not only did its size drastically shrink, but its fur also became dull and lifeless.
What surprised Uchiha Gin even more was that the Nine-Tails' primordial chakra was on the verge of collapse; if left unchecked, it might dissipate into the world.

"You know I can't help it."

Seeing Uchiha Gin's brows furrowed into a deep frown, Yin Kurama, fearing the other party would take his anger out on her, stepped forward to explain.

What it said wasn't wrong; as a creation made purely of Yin-attribute chakra, the Yin Nine-Tails was indeed powerless to help the Yang Nine-Tails.

"Failure to report such information is an even more serious offense."

Uchiha Gin glanced at the terrified Yin Nine-Tails, then reached into his backpack and pulled out a wisp of red chakra, channeling it into the Yang Nine-Tails' body.

As a Knight System repairman, isn't it reasonable for him to carry a wisp of Tailed Beast chakra with him?

"How come you have this?"

The Yin Nine-Tails watched Uchiha Gin's actions with curiosity, and when it saw the wisp of bright red chakra intertwined with the Yang Nine-Tails's, it almost dropped its jaw in astonishment.
This is its original chakra, how could it be in this descendant of Indra? I clearly never lost it.
Could it be.
Kun Kun?
Waaaaah... My Kun Kun~
After replenishing Yang Kurama with the Nine-Tails' original chakra produced by the system, Uchiha Gin checked it and found no rejection reaction. It was as if this chakra was cut from Yang Kurama's own body, and he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Turning his head to look at Yin Jiuwei, who was inexplicably in tears, he gave a sinister warning.

"Knowing too much is not good for you."

With the new Yang-attribute primordial chakra, the Yang Nine-Tails, which was on the verge of dissipating, immediately recovered.

As Yang Jiuwei's condition improved, Senju Hisami's condition also improved. Seeing this, Uchiha Gin raised an eyebrow.

"No wonder they didn't die."

It turns out that the reason Senju Hisama could jump back and forth inside and outside the Pure Land was because Yang Nine-Tails was exerting its power.

He had previously thought that Kurama was using its chakra to prolong the white-haired creature's life, but he didn't expect Yang Kurama to be so straightforward and directly activate the soul link, allowing the two to share life, which saved Senju Hishima's life.

Once Senju Hisana's complexion returned to a rosy hue and her skin regained its fair color, Uchiha Gin pulled up a chair, sat down beside the operating table, crossed his legs, and began questioning Kurama about what had happened.

"Tell me, what kind of enemy did you encounter?"

Upon hearing this, Yin Jiuwei's eyes flashed with resentment. She gritted her teeth and began to recount the whole story.
"On her way back from completing the mission, she encountered the same enemy she had met before, but unlike last time, the enemy's power had evolved."

Yin Jiuwei recalled the red and white Nine-Tailed Knight who had blocked their way; the resentment in her eyes was replaced by horror.
Even now, it still can't understand how the enemy could cultivate such a terrifying monster from its tiny bit of chakra.

Sure enough, the white-haired man also encountered a fake knight.

Having already seen the upgraded fake knight, Uchiha Gin merely frowned; he wasn't overly surprised.

"You guys got beaten up like this by it? How embarrassing!"

Shaking his head dismissively, Uchiha Gin uttered a sarcastic remark.
The Nine-Tails' Rider System was something he had specifically upgraded, so it should theoretically be much stronger than other Riders. The fact that he was beaten so badly by a fake Rider is purely because the white-haired guy himself wasn't up to par.

"Hmph! How could a mere fake be a match for us?" "Oh?"

Uchiha Gin, who was just beginning to formulate a sarcastic remark, was taken aback by what he heard. Seeing that the Nine-Tails' arrogant expression didn't seem fake, his curiosity grew even stronger.
They actually won?
What happened to this injury?

"Although that guy stole my great power, he is nothing but a chicken and a dog in front of my true self."

Yin Jiuwei thoroughly enjoyed Uchiha Gin's astonished gaze, and immediately recounted, embellishing the entire process of how she had brutally beaten the fake knight.
"I delivered a right roundhouse kick, followed by a left front kick."

In fact, the compatibility between Kurama and Senju Hishima is much higher than that between Kurama and Uchiha Madara.

In terms of synchronization rate, the previous Uchiha Madara only had a synchronization rate of around 70%. Kurama only provided him with tailed beast chakra under pressure; there was absolutely no tacit understanding or trust between them.

Senju Hisana is different; she is a Nine-Tails Knight recognized by the Nine-Tails, with a synchronization rate as high as 99.99%. This rate can even improve in life-or-death situations.

The compatibility between the tailed beast and the rider directly affects the strength of the rider system.

Therefore, after transforming, Senju Hisa's power was no less than that of Uchiha Madara, and she could even surpass him at crucial moments.

"Get to the point. If you keep talking nonsense, I'll give you a sex reassignment surgery, and you'll be raising the baby in three months."

After pondering the matter of the Knight System, Uchiha Gin looked impatiently at the boastful Yin Nine-Tails and coldly threatened,
"Hey!"

Upon hearing this, Yin Jiuwei immediately became obedient. Although it no longer had Kunkun, it was still at least a father-in-law. If Uchiha Gin really had the means to change its gender, how could it hold its head high in front of the other tailed beasts in the future?

"Cough cough cough At first, we were evenly matched. Even with me and Yang Jiuwei switching our powers repeatedly, she still couldn't defeat that imposter."

Because the Nine-Tails' power was split in two, Senju Hisama could only choose one of her two forms to fight the enemy, who was a fake knight possessing the complete data of the White and Red Fox. For a time, the two fought fiercely, neither gaining the upper hand.
"So how did you defeat it?"

"Hmph~ Since taking turns doesn't work, let's all go at once. Anyway, the card slot is so big, we can just stuff two cards in at once."

Forehead.
So it's a Jenga-style game!
Using the Yin-Yang Nine-Tailed Fox cards together can indeed unlock the full power of the Nine-Tailed Knight, but this places a heavy burden on the user. Even Senju Hishin, who possesses the Thousand Hands physique, would probably find it unbearable.

"Once we switch to our Trinity form, that imposter is no match for us at all."

Trinity?
Did you guys secretly upgrade without telling me?

"It's the golden kind, all sparkly and shiny~"

Oh, it's the Golden Fox [Nine Lama Link].

Uchiha Gin nodded thoughtfully. In this form, it would be more than enough to deal with a fake knight.

"If she defeated the enemy, how did she get injured?"

After listening to Yin Jiuwei's account, Uchiha Gin blinked in confusion, his gaze falling on Senju Hisami, whose aura was steady.

"Could it be that he slipped and fell into lava and then got struck by lightning?"

Otherwise, how can we explain the complex traumatic elements on Senju Hisa's body?

"Hmph! This was all done by the Four-Tails and the Eight-Tails. Those two opportunistic little devils, don't let me run into them again, or even if the old man pleads for them, I'll beat them to a pulp!"

At this point, Yin Jiuwei's face was filled with anger, clearly showing her deep hatred for the two despicable and shameless individuals she had mentioned.

Four tails?

Eight tails?

How did they get involved?

However, this explains how the wound came about.

"Hmm."

Just as Uchiha Gin was about to press for more details, Senju Hisama, who had been lingering in front of the Pure Land for a long time, finally returned. Her long eyelashes trembled slightly, and her gradually focusing crimson eyes were filled with confusion.

"An unfamiliar ceiling."

"It's alright, it won't feel unfamiliar next time you come."

"who?!"

Uchiha Gin's words startled Senju Hisa, who was in a half-dreaming state. She immediately leaped off the operating table with a somersault, grabbed a scalpel, and warily surveyed her surroundings.

"Tsk! Could you cover yourself up first? This is really indecent."

Seeing Senju Hishima draped in only a few pieces of cloth barely covering her vital parts, Uchiha Gin, feeling nothing but nausea, clutched his forehead and tossed over a pre-prepared hospital gown, his expression one of utter disgust.

"Phew, it's you."

The moment Senju Hisama saw Uchiha Gin, the tension in her heart finally eased.
Although she didn't like the curly-haired guy, she had to admit that Uchiha Gin's presence gave her a sense of security, perhaps because of his calm and collected attitude in the face of anything.
"Looks like I'm back safely."

"I'm coming back, but whether I'm safe or not is up to me."

"Thank you, I'll settle the treatment costs for you."

Sensing the hidden meaning in Uchiha Gin's words, Senju Hisa, now dressed in a hospital gown, touched the fair skin between her breasts, a look of gratitude appearing on her face.

She still clearly remembered that the Eight-Tailed Knight's eight-in-one tentacle drill pierced through her chest right from this spot.

If this were any other doctor, they would probably have already started arranging a full range of funeral services for such a horrific injury.

"My consultation fees aren't cheap. Can you afford them now?"

Uchiha Gin had some doubts about Senju Hishima's financial situation. After all, Hishima had previously declared bankruptcy. As the daughter of Senju Tobirama, she inherited a large amount of debt from her mother, and was so poor that her underwear was worn out but she still wouldn't replace it.
"Don't worry, the consultation fee is nothing."

Senju Hisami smiled dismissively. During her recent mission, she had raided a hideout of an evil organization. The perpetrators, who claimed to be some kind of Sky Ninja, had helped her earn a considerable amount of extra money. Now that she had some cash on hand, she naturally spoke with more confidence.

"I hope you will do what you say."

Looking at Senju Hisama's confident expression, Uchiha Gin wondered if the white-haired guy had won the lottery.
"Tick-tock! Tick-tock! Tick-tock!"

Just as the two were talking, a sudden, high-pitched suona melody pierced through the thick walls of the emergency room and reached their ears. The mournful tune, with its ups and downs, made Senju Hisa's face darken.
"Sigh, I wonder whose this is."

"Waaaaah, little aunt, you died so tragically!" (End of Chapter)
