From undercover in Konoha, to I am the Hokage!

Chapter 89 Isn't he almost dead? (5k)

"Ah."

Uchiha Guang, who was walking in the forest, suddenly covered his mouth and glanced around vigilantly. Then he remembered that this was no longer the Warring States Period when even the clan’s land was surrounded by dangers, so he continued to walk with his bare feet.

The Black Zetsu in front glanced at her, and then continued to lead the way like a fish floating on the surface.

Once we passed the forest ahead, the light suddenly became clear.

What appeared in the two people's field of vision was one of the clan sites of the Uchiha clan during its heyday, which had been abandoned about a hundred years ago.

However, at this time, this abandoned tribal land in the center of the forest had already become deserted. The broken stone walls were covered with all kinds of green plants. Under the light, the condensed dew on the petals dripped slowly.

"This is where you lived at that time."

"You should still remember it, right?"

Black Zetsu turned his head and looked at the girl behind him with a smile.

Somehow, maybe because it was simply ugly, Uchiha Hikaru always felt that this dark face dotted with two soybeans was a little disgusting. Even the tone of voice was annoying, making people feel that this guy had no good intentions towards them.

In comparison, even that guy Sawara Kiri is much better.

Although, he is also a nasty guy who would suddenly kiss a strange girl and want to take her home.

"Why do you suddenly think of that guy?"

Uchiha Guang shook his head, trying to get rid of the shadow of that man from his mind, his cheeks slightly flushed.

"Humph!"

Getting angry for no reason.

I have to say, the silly girl's intuition is always very sharp.

However, she now needed help from Black Zetsu after all. Uchiha Hikaru didn't say much and turned to look at the surrounding ruins.

Although the clan land was probably still used for some time after she was sealed, and the locations and appearances of many buildings had changed, the direction of the roads was generally the same as she remembered.

Uchiha Hikaru stood there silently, looking around quietly, slowly lighting up the memories that spanned a hundred years.

In fact, for her, it was just a matter of opening and closing her eyes.

Everything in the world has become extremely strange.

This feeling did not make her feel much panic. Even when she learned that the Uchiha clan, who used her as a "weapon", had become a part of a ninja village called Konohagakure, she felt a little relaxed unconsciously.

No one would enslave her any longer.

"Where are my parents' graves?"

"This way."

Black Zetsu still smiled with interest and led her through the large ruins to a hillside near the edge of the valley.

Although no one has cleaned the area for many years, thick vegetation has grown around here.

But probably because only about a hundred years have passed, traces of unevenness can still be vaguely seen under the vegetation layer.

Hei Zetsu walked slowly to one of the small raised earth mounds, stretched out his hand to sweep away the patches of ivy covering the stone slab, revealing the much-corroded stone tablet underneath.

Uchiha Hikaru looked at the name above, stood there, stunned for a long time.

strangeness.

It was not until she arrived in front of this tombstone that the girl suddenly remembered that during the time she was a "weapon", she seemed to have never been allowed to come to such a place.

Even when walking within the tribe's territory, they are often under the protection of several tribesmen and pass through several fixed routes.

Restricted movement is a natural thing for "weapons".

So when she suddenly came to the tombstone, she suddenly realized that the scene was so strange.

——Goodbye after a hundred years.

Uchiha Hikaru stood there, but seemed a little embarrassed, as if he didn't know what to do. His two bare feet were pressed together, his dirty big toes rubbing against each other, and he hung his head in confusion.

Hei Zetsu looked at her with a smile.

It is clearly a shape inlaid like simple blocks of color, but when its mouth is raised, it almost makes people subconsciously think of the word "sinister".

"do you know?"

"In fact, when we were helping you find this cemetery, we actually had an unexpected gain."

Uchiha Hikaru looked up at him. Although she hadn't said anything yet, her eyes were already red and her childish voice seemed to be tangled:
"what?"

Half of Black Zetsu's body sank into the ground. His dark hand reached out from the ground and gently knocked on the stone slab under Uchiha Hikari's feet:
"Listen, this place is empty."

"You can lift up the bricks here."

"What might be hidden in there?"

Uchiha Guang was startled when he heard this, and immediately bent down and used his slender hands to pick up one side of the stone slab.

really.

When she lifted the stone slab, she saw that there was indeed a hole there.

Inside was an iron box with rust all over the edges.

The girl paused for a moment, then bent down and took out the box.

There was a little water accumulated underground, but the sealing of the iron box was still pretty good, except that the surface was rusted and the padlock hanging on it broke with just a slight pull.

When you open the box, you will see that it is wrapped in layers of baking paper, forming a thick cube.

The outer layer is already very brittle, and it breaks into pieces like snowflakes with just a slight poke.

Uchiha Hikaru carefully peeled off the outer oil paper layer by layer, and only when he finally peeled it off did he reveal a letter hidden inside.

The letter paper had turned yellow from being soaked and was a little hard, but one could still clearly see the words "光亲启" on it.

Black Zetsu reminded softly:

"Why don't you open it and take a look?"

At this moment, Uchiha Guang seemed to be stunned when he saw the words, but after a pause, clear ripples could gradually be seen in those red eyes, as if something was slowly fluctuating and trembling inadvertently.

She slowly opened the envelope and read the words on it with some difficulty.

"Ah, I'm surprised that Hikaru actually found me. Are you surprised?"

"Since Hikaru has read this letter, it should mean that we are already in that world."

"."

Uchiha Hikaru read the letter very slowly and didn't recognize some of the words.

The girl was treated as a "weapon" at an early age. Not only could she not go to school, she didn't even have anyone she could talk to. The only books she needed to read were various ninjutsu scrolls. Her cultural level was neither very high nor very low.

However, when reading the letter, the girl's expression was more serious than ever before, and she even clenched her teeth.

Miss, cherish, cherish, pity.
They are all unfamiliar words.

But Uchiha Guang could understand it all.

All of this is an explanation of "love".

He was the only person she had ever met in her life who loved her unconditionally.

Obviously being loved is such a happy thing, but the more I read on, the more sour my nose felt, and the redness and swelling in my eyes became more unbearable, as if something was constantly squeezing out of my eyes.

One drop, two drops.
The yellowed and hard letter paper was wet by the dew, leaving black marks, which scared the girl so much that she quickly took the letter paper away.

The tears and sobs could not be stopped.

Until I couldn't stop crying.

Beside her, Black Zetsu still maintained that annoying smile, watching the scene with a warm look.

"It's so easy to cheat."

"As expected, even after a hundred years, he is still a child?"

But, of course, he would never say such words.

Black Zetsu was like the quietest audience, waiting by the side with a silent smile.

He didn't stop until the girl read the not-so-strong letter paper once and twice, and accidentally broke a corner of the brittle letter paper with too much force.

Uchiha Hikaru turned around, his eyes still tearful, but he still had the alertness of a little crybaby, gritting his teeth:
"What on earth do you want to do by showing me these?"

Seeing that she had finally woken up from her strong emotions, Black Zetsu said with a smile: "Of course, we want you to become ours."

"I said!"

"I will not be a weapon to anyone again."

However, Uchiha Hikaru's tone was tougher than ever before, with a hint of threat in it. The three scarlet magatama spun continuously, forming a pinwheel-shaped kaleidoscope.

"No, no."

Black Zetsu, however, did not take these eyes seriously at all, and his smile became brighter: "Not a weapon, but a companion."

"Don't you want to know the meaning of 'love'?"

"I know! Don't treat me as a fool!" There were still traces of tears on Uchiha Guang's face, but his brows were tightly furrowed.

"No, you don't."

Black Zetsu's voice became softer, as if carrying some strange sense of enchantment: "You are just feeling the 'love' your parents have for you."

"Then do you know how to love others?"

Uchiha Hikaru was stunned when he heard this, and subconsciously thought of Sawara Kiri, and answered instinctively:

"Kiss him!" "No~"

Black Zetsu waved his fingers and said gently: "That level of 'love' only lasts for a brief moment, what about love that lasts longer?"

"Give him a child?" Uchiha Guang frowned.

"What if the time is extended to a lifetime?" Black Zetsu continued to increase the difficulty.

"."

It’s a pity that A Guang only has these two tricks and he didn’t know how to respond later.

Black Zetsu smiled slightly.

This is the right to interpret love.

"Let me tell you." Black Zetsu's grinning mouth slid down, and he put on a calm and solemn expression, "The love that lasts a lifetime is to keep him out of dangerous environments, so that he won't die in front of him because of war and killing."

"It is to completely destroy the existence called ninja that caused the war."

"This is the greatest love in the world."

“At the same time, this is what we want to do now.”

Uchiha Guang was completely stunned when he heard this.

She only thought about this kind of thing when she was in the most pain and wanted to go crazy.

But now, I actually met someone who wants to do these things in person.

"Is that kind of thing really possible?"

Uchiha Hikaru asked subconsciously, even because of some misunderstandings caused by the first batch of ninjas he met after the seal was lifted, and frowned deeply:

"So much time has passed. The ninjas nowadays must be like Sawara Kiri, much stronger than we were back then, right?"

"If there were more of those monster-like guys, you would all be killed."

Black Zetsu thought that even one more monster like that was too many for him. If there were a few more, not only would he be unable to complete his plan, but he would also have to wonder what kind of world Uchiha Madara would have to face after his resurrection.

"Of course that's impossible."

"In fact, there are probably only one or two old guys like him hiding in the corners in the entire ninja world."

"You just have bad luck."

"Eh?!"

Uchiha Hikaru was stunned.

Afterwards, my mood couldn't help but relax a lot.

It turns out that there are not many guys like him in this world.

This reality immediately made Uchiha Guang, who was originally surrounded by frustration, feel much more relaxed.

Sense of security: level up↑.

It seems that she is not as weak as imagined!

The silly girl inadvertently became proud again.

Seeing how easily she was fooled, Black Zetsu's smile eased again and turned into a playful expression: "So, you probably don't want the person you want to love to die in the war, right?"

"Although the world today is not as chaotic as the Warring States Period, the scale of wars between ninjas has become even larger."

"Even strong men like you and Sawara Kiri can die in a mass sealing technique of a large number of ninjas if they are not careful."

"As long as there are ninjas, the war in this world will never stop."

"."

Hearing this, Uchiha Guang was silent for a long time.

Somehow, she kept thinking about the boy who came up to her and kissed her not long after they met.

"People like him must be treated as monsters by the people around him just like I was back then, and no one will love him, right?"

Thinking of this, the girl suddenly understood why he behaved like that at that time.

Same kind?
"Humph~"

After a long while, she finally made a soft sound and turned to look at the dark guy:

"At least, I want to hear what you plan to do first!"

The smile on Black Zetsu's face became brighter:
"Of course."

cave.

The aging Uchiha Madara sat on a stone throne, looking at the image reflected in the crystal ball placed on the table. As his brain gradually decayed with age, he recalled with some difficulty some rumors he had heard in his early years.

"Uchiha Mumei?"

"Some impressions."

When his father Uchiha Tajima was still young, he heard that the Uchiha clan had completely suppressed the Senju clan for several years.

Although the time was short, it was an unprecedented grand occasion and was deeply remembered by the proud Uchiha clan members. Even when Uchiha Tajima was older, he still often mentioned it, specifically to praise the strength of the Uchiha clan's bloodline.

That example is the Uchiha clan's peerless weapon - "Nameless".

According to rumors, she has awakened a kaleidoscope eye technique called "Eight Thousand Spears", which can complete the "imprint" with the object that has had chakra contact.

The chakra and eye power of all people who have been "marked" can be absorbed or released by that person, thus forming a terrifying power far beyond that of ordinary people.

However, those who are branded with this mark will be controlled by her and will have no self-identity either mentally or physically.

Therefore, everyone in the tribe was secretly afraid of that monster.

However, terrifying abilities naturally also bring terrifying benefits. At that time, the clan had a rich store of secret history and extremely cruel traditions specifically for cultivating the Mangekyō Sharingan. Among the generation that Uchiha Mumei was born into, there were even more Mangekyō members.

Almost all the members of the Kaleidoscope Clan were branded with the mark, and their pupil power was transferred to that person's body, thus forming an unprecedented monster.

But later, something unexpected happened.

That peerless weapon was suddenly sealed, and some accidents that were not recorded in history occurred in the tribe. The tribe suffered heavy casualties, and even could not defend its land, so it moved to the current location of the Fire Kingdom.

Obviously, the history seen by ordinary Uchiha clan members is completely different from the perspective experienced by Uchiha Hikaru.

"Eight Thousand Spears?"

"It's okay, it's a good tool."

"It's just that unfortunately, I ended up on a wrong path."

Uchiha Madara silently looked at the figure reflected in the crystal ball and murmured in a low voice.

The Uchiha clan is of no significance to him now.

In his mind, the true path to evolution was to fuse the two kaleidoscopes together through blood ties, just like he and Izuna did.

Carrying his brother's life, he continued to move towards the peak of his pupil power, constantly nourishing it with chakra.

The pair of "Reincarnation Eyes" that were finally formed actually proved his idea.

If not, why would a "weapon" that absorbed the power of so many pairs of kaleidoscope pupils only have this level of power?
Naturally, Uchiha Madara's attitude towards this little guy could not be described as fear at all.

The only thing to worry about is that after he dies, will the little guy with such powerful strength be able to follow the route he gave?

At this moment, Uchiha Madara did not notice whether there was anything wrong with the process by which Black Zetsu discovered this girl.

No matter how strong and smart you are when you are young.

Now he is indeed about to enter the end of his life.

Uchiha Madara closed his eyes silently.

Behind him, the Outer Path Demon Statue, which stood like a statue in the center of the mountain and was connected to him by tree roots, slowly injected pure Yang Release Chakra into his body, struggling to maintain his life.

The tree roots expanded and contracted like blood vessels.

Until I don’t know how much time passed.

When Uchiha Madara woke up again after being reminded by Zetsu, the girl's face, which seemed to have changed, was reflected in his already dim pupils.

When passing through the town, the girl borrowed some money from Black Zetsu and washed herself thoroughly. Now she has changed into new clothes.

Some of her originally messy long hair was cut off, and her dirty little face was wiped clean, revealing the fair and delicate skin underneath. Only her thin eyebrows made her handsome face look inexplicably weak.

"Wait a moment."

"Are you guys planning something as big as that here?"

It was not until she passed through the long underground tunnel and entered the wide mountain space and saw the outer demon statue in front of her that the girl was slightly stunned and suddenly opened her mouth to ask.

"exactly."

Black Zetsu said this, leaning forward and making a respectful gesture:
"The one in front of you is my master."

However, Uchiha Hikaru looked at the obviously old man sitting on the stone platform and frowned:

"Ok?"

"He's almost dead!"

"How can we save the world when this is happening?"

　First update.

　　Unless there are any unexpected updates, future updates will generally be fixed at 6pm and 10pm.
