Naruto: Talent entry, starting with Otsutsuki bloodline

Chapter 183 Soul Scattered, Brothers Reunited

Looking at Sasuke Uchiha, whose face was streaked with two lines of bloody tears, Izayoi asked, "What are you planning to do next?"

"I want to know the more detailed truth about the extermination of our race."

Having awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan, Sasuke Uchiha's personality also changed drastically, but unlike in the original story, he did not become extremely manic. Instead, he calmly said, "I'm going to find Orochimaru and have him use the Impure World Reincarnation technique to summon Danzo Shimura and Hiruzen Sarutobi to get more detailed information."

"And then?" Izayoi asked. "After confirming that it was them, what do you plan to do?"

Sasuke Uchiha, his Mangekyou Sharingan wide open, stared intently at Izayoi and asked directly, "If I wanted to take revenge on them, would you stop me?"

"What do you think?" Izayoi asked with a smile.

Seeing his smile, Sasuke Uchiha's deeply wounded heart finally found a sliver of comfort.

The bond between father and son needs no further explanation.

If Izayoi hadn't helped him, there would have been no need to tell him the truth about the extermination of his clan; he could have simply kept it from him.

But Izayoi did not do that.

As mentioned earlier, Izayoi did not want him to become a puppet whose fate was arranged by others.

He is a living person and should have his own way of thinking.

Therefore, although Sasuke Uchiha's mind may seem chaotic at the moment, he is actually extremely calm.

His decision to seek out Orochimaru wasn't based on suspicion that Izayoi was deceiving him, but rather on a desire to learn the full truth about the massacre of his clan before deciding how to deal with Itachi Uchiha.

As if sensing Sasuke's emotions, Izayoi stood up and instructed Hinata and the other girl, "I'm taking Sasuke away for a while. I'll leave this place to you."

"Don't worry, Izayoi-kun, we will handle everything."

Hinata and her two daughters nodded.

So, Izayoi used the Flying Thunder God Technique to teleport away from Konoha with Uchiha Sasuke.

"Izayoi-kun, Sasuke-kun, it's been a long time."

In an underground base, Orochimaru was unfazed by the sudden appearance of Izayoi and Sasuke Uchiha in front of him, and even greeted them in a very friendly manner.

Even when Orochimaru saw the Mangekyou Sharingan with the black sun pattern in Sasuke's eyes, no greed or fervor showed in his eyes, as if he had already let go of his obsession with the Sharingan.

"It's been a long time, Lord Orochimaru," Izayoi said with a smile. "I'm sorry to trouble you again this time."

"Anything I can do is just a small matter." Orochimaru smiled nonchalantly, then casually probed, "But... could you grant me a request, Izayoi-kun?"

"What do you want to know?" Izayoi asked with a smile.

Orochimaru stared intently at Izayoi, his eyes gleaming with curiosity about the unknown and excitement as if he were guessing something. His voice trembled slightly as he asked, "I really want to know, what was going on with the chakra a while ago?"

Upon hearing this, both Kabuto Yakushi, who was sterilizing his tools, and Sasuke Uchiha, who was eager to know the truth about the massacre of his clan, turned their gazes toward Izayoi.

This was not only Orochimaru's question, but also the question of the entire ninja world.

Unfortunately, apart from Madara Uchiha and Hinata and the other girls, even Tsunade and Shizune, who often came over for meals, and Sasuke Uchiha, didn't know what that chakra was all about.

Because they don't know, it's a good thing for them.

Those who haven't even reached the pinnacle of the Five Kage might lose their motivation to become stronger if they knew about the other dimension beforehand.

"As expected of Lord Orochimaru, he dares to ask anything." Izayoi couldn't help but sigh, then smiled meaningfully, "That chakra is my Sage Mode having been sublimated, it is called... Six Paths Sage Mode."

"Sage Mode of Six Paths?!"

Orochimaru and the other two were all slightly taken aback.

Then, as if he had just thought of something, Orochimaru's pupils suddenly contracted, and a storm of emotions surged within him.

The appearance of the Rinnegan and Tenseigan has shown the world that the myth of the Sage of Six Paths may very well be true.

The appearance of the words "Sage of Six Paths Mode" naturally reminded Orochimaru of the Sage of Six Paths.

Could it be that Izayoi received the inheritance of the Sage of Six Paths?
Otherwise, it's impossible to explain why Izayoi, at such a young age, possesses strength that might even surpass that of the God of Shinobi.

"Can Sage Mode be further enhanced?" Sasuke Uchiha asked Izayoi.

“Yes, but you probably won’t be able to obtain such power,” Izayoi said frankly. “One of the basic conditions for Sage Mode to be elevated is to master the seven ultimate nature transformations.”

Upon hearing this, Orochimaru and his two companions once again showed expressions of shock.

Izayoi, he has actually mastered seven ultimate nature transformations?

Although Orochimaru and the current Sasuke Uchiha both possess seven nature transformations, they either specialize in one or two nature transformations, or they can use all seven nature transformations but are not proficient in any of them.

Even a ninjutsu professor like Hiruzen Sarutobi has only mastered the five nature transformations to the highest level, not yet reached their ultimate potential.

Because when the changes in the two properties reach their extremes, one can try to fuse them into a bloodline limit that can be passed on to offspring.

This shows just how extraordinary it is to master the seven ultimate changes in nature.

Could it be that Izayoi has now created a second bloodline limit, or even more bloodline limits, or even... a bloodline elimination limit?
Orochimaru couldn't help but analyze it in his mind.

After his initial shock, Sasuke Uchiha quickly calmed down, no longer surprised by Izayoi's talent.

Immediately, he looked at Orochimaru and said, "I need to access the memories of Hiruzen Sarutobi and Danzo Shimura. Can you use the Impure World Reincarnation technique to summon them?"

"Hiruzen Sarutobi and Danzo Shimura?"

Orochimaru was slightly taken aback, then said with interest, "Sasuke-kun, are you facing some kind of problem? Would you be interested in telling me about it? Perhaps I can help you."

Upon hearing this, Uchiha Sasuke subconsciously looked at Izayoi beside him.

"You can make your own decision. I support you unconditionally," Izayoi said with a smile.

Sasuke felt a warmth in his heart again, and then said to Orochimaru, "All you need to do is resurrect those two people with Edo Tensei, can you do that?"

Orochimaru didn't mind Sasuke Uchiha's attitude and explained with a smile, "Hiruzen Sarutobi has no problem. When I retrieved the souls of my hands, I also rescued the souls of the previous Hokage. I also have his medium in my hands."

"However, I'm not so sure about Shimura Danzo, after all, he was the ace of Otsutsuki Toneri's puppet army."

"The power of the Sage's Eye is obvious to all, and I'm not sure if Shimura Danzo's soul is inside that puppet."

Sasuke Uchiha frowned slightly and asked, "Do you have his medium?"

"I almost forgot if you hadn't mentioned it," Orochimaru chuckled. "I do actually have his medium in my possession."

This medium was none other than Danzo Shimura's left hand.

“Then let’s give it a try,” Izayoi said.

"can."

Orochimaru nodded.

The scene shifts to a large hall in an underground base, where Kabuto Yakushi brings two prisoners. Orochimaru, after taking out the medium, skillfully casts the Impure World Reincarnation technique. Tadpole-shaped incantations spread out.

The prisoner, whose mouth was sealed with tape, suddenly made a whimpering sound, and then his body was enveloped by white dust that appeared out of nowhere.

Before long, Shimura Danzo and Sarutobi Hiruzen, the two best buddies whose bodies were covered in cracks, appeared in front of Izayoi and the others.

"Do you need any help?" Izayoi asked Sasuke Uchiha.

"No need, just keep an eye on my body."

Sasuke Uchiha formed hand seals, and then, under the astonished gazes of Orochimaru and Kabuto Yakushi, his soul flew directly out of his body and first seeped into Hiruzen Sarutobi's body.

Not long after, it flew out from above Hiruzen Sarutobi's head and entered Danzo Shimura's body.

This is none other than the S-rank forbidden technique from the Book of Seals... the Spirit Transformation Technique.

The difficulty of mastering this forbidden technique is no less than that of the Flying Thunder God Technique.

Aside from the developers, only Dan Kato had mastered it for decades.

With this forbidden technique, Kato Dan became a very famous sensory ninja and assassin in the ninja world.

Even ninjutsu geniuses like Orochimaru and Hiruzen Sarutobi haven't mastered this S-rank forbidden technique.

It's unbelievable that Uchiha Sasuke, at such a young age, has accomplished something they couldn't.

"How enviable..." Orochimaru murmured to himself.

This time, the envy wasn't for Sasuke Uchiha's talent, but for the era he lived in.

Being in an era with four super-powerful forces is undoubtedly unlucky, but also lucky.

The world's limits seem to have been broken by the existence of those four people. Everyone's growth rate is astonishing, far exceeding the era in which Orochimaru and his group lived.

After all, in their era, the Mangekyou Sharingan was a legendary eye.

Now, however, the Mangekyou Sharingan is insignificant, not even qualified to step onto that highest stage.

It's truly heartbreaking!
Soon, Sasuke Uchiha's soul flew out of Danzo Shimura's body and returned to his own.

Upon opening his eyes, Sasuke Uchiha's face was filled with murderous intent, his Mangekyou Sharingan fixed on the expressionless Hiruzen Sarutobi and Danzo Shimura.

Immediately, Sasuke Uchiha turned to Izayoi beside him and asked, "Izayoi, do you have any ninjutsu that can kill their souls?"

"Then you've come to the right person."

Izayoi smiled and raised her palm.

Under the watchful eyes of the three, a black substance appeared out of thin air in his palm, condensing into a small black sphere, which then rapidly expanded to the size of a table tennis ball.

It was a very ordinary black ball, yet it sent chills down the spines of Orochimaru and his two companions.

"This...what is this?"

Orochimaru's eyes flickered as he asked, "A Tailed Beast Ball?"

"The Tailed Beast Ball isn't qualified to challenge it," Izayoi laughed. "It's called the Truth-Seeking Ball, a symbol of the Sage of Six Paths Mode, and a product of the fusion of seven nature transformations."

With a flick of his finger, the Truth-Seeking Ball transformed into a black beam of light that instantly shattered Hiruzen Sarutobi's right shoulder.

However, the immortal body reborn through the Impure World Reincarnation did not automatically repair the injury on its right shoulder.

Seeing the shocked expressions on Orochimaru and Kabuto Yakushi's faces, Izayoi smiled knowingly: "The Truth-Seeking Balls possess the power to destroy everything in the universe. Whether it's the body or the soul, once it touches them, they will be reduced to nothingness."

"..."

Orochimaru and Kabuto were both so shocked that they were speechless.

Even Sasuke Uchiha, whose face was filled with murderous intent, stared in disbelief at the Truth-Seeking Balls that flew back.

Immediately afterward, Izayoi asked Uchiha Sasuke, "Do you want to destroy their souls like this, or let their consciousness awaken and watch their souls dissipate?"

"That's it. I don't want to see their ugly faces anymore," Sasuke Uchiha said, his face full of disgust.

Orochimaru came to his senses and said with a hint of regret, "It's a pity that the Impure World Reincarnation technique doesn't cause any pain, whether it's physical or spiritual injury. Otherwise, we could have enjoyed their screams."

This time, Izayoi didn't waste any words. She directly manipulated the Truth-Seeking Balls to shatter the bodies and souls of Hiruzen Sarutobi and Danzo Shimura, causing them to completely disappear from this world.

After doing all that, Izayoi continued to ask Uchiha Sasuke, "What are your plans next?"

“I’m going to see Itachi Uchiha,” Sasuke Uchiha replied immediately.

"Okay, I'll take you there."

Izayoi nodded, then instructed Orochimaru, "Lord Orochimaru, be prepared. I will pardon your crimes in a while, and you will no longer be an S-rank rogue ninja of Konoha."

After saying that, Izayoi teleported away with Sasuke Uchiha, leaving Orochimaru and Kabuto Yakushi looking dazed.

After an unknown amount of time, Kabuto finally came to his senses and looked at Orochimaru, asking, "Lord Orochimaru, is it really possible for us to return to Konoha?"

As he said this, images of the director and the orphanage involuntarily flashed through Kabuto's mind.

"If someone else had said this, I might have been skeptical."

Orochimaru looked at the spotless floor and smiled knowingly, "But if it were Izayoi-kun, perhaps we could not only return to Konoha, but also be entrusted with important responsibilities."

Orochimaru, who planted a spy in Konoha, still has a thorough understanding of the current situation in Konoha.

In particular, when Izayoi ended the Hokage's active administration and abolished the elder council system, delegating power to the various ninja clans, Orochimaru once again experienced the power and confidence of superhuman combat strength.

Just as the Daimyo of the Land of Fire agreed to Hashirama Senju's "one country, one village system," power is something that can be easily obtained by strong individuals with extraordinary combat power.

Only the weak would consider this a treasure.

……

Some desolate place.

Instead of staying in Amegakure, Itachi Uchiha and Kisame Hoshigaki, who were out carrying out black market missions to earn money for Amegakure, are heading back towards the Land of Rain.

At that moment, as if they had seen something, they suddenly stopped in their tracks.

Just a few dozen meters ahead, a branch suddenly sprouted from the ground, with a spell mark faintly visible on its bark.

The next second, Izayoi and Sasuke Uchiha appeared in front of them without warning.

Upon seeing Izayoi, Kisame Hoshigaki involuntarily broke out in a cold sweat.

Meanwhile, Itachi Uchiha stared intently at Sasuke Uchiha's Mangekyou Sharingan with his three-tomoe Sharingan.

Sasuke... have you finally gotten eyes like mine?
