Naruto: By lying low and hiding, he eventually became the leader of the Legendary Sannin.

At this moment, looking at the reward for saving Hatake Sakumo, Kagura added it to her eye technique without hesitation.

There was absolutely no room for hesitation in making this choice.

Even without using rewards, and relying solely on one's own efforts, physical skills will soon see a breakthrough.

As I just mentioned, chakra is dispensable for Kagura.

Tailed Beast Fusion...

It doesn't seem to be an urgent matter, since if nothing unexpected happens, we'll probably have to keep going all the way to the Nine-Tails.

As for eye techniques, they have always been the most difficult skill for Kagura to improve.

If we don't use the progress given by this mission, who knows when we'll reach 100%.

Moreover, that perfect 70.1% evolution rate—even a fool would know to choose it...

So it seems like there are multiple choices, but for Kagura now, there is only one choice.

As soon as I pressed "confirm" in my mind, the progress bar for the "Eye Technique" item suddenly advanced a lot, and just as it reached the end, it was completely full.

With Kagura feeling slightly uneasy, the explanation of the eye technique finally changed.

Eye Technique: (Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan)

What Kagura found somewhat strange was that there was no progress in the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan this time.

Just as he was wondering about this, the system's voice appeared in his mind.

"It was detected that the host simultaneously met the two prerequisites: the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan and the Wood Release Kekkei Genkai."

The Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan has begun its evolution and will automatically evolve into the Rinnegan.

Evolution and fusion in progress...

Fusion and evolution time: 30 years.

Kagura was overjoyed when she heard the system say that her eyes were beginning to evolve into the Rinnegan.

It can be said that Madara Uchiha's Rinnegan had been suppressing Kagura all along.

As a more advanced eye than the Sharingan, many of Kagura's dojutsu seemed somewhat powerless against Madara Uchiha.

The best way to fight against the Rinnegan is to also possess the Rinnegan yourself.

However, when Kagura saw that the fusion evolution time was displayed as 30 years, her heart sank.

30 years?

System, are you messing with me?

Let's not even talk about whether I'll still be alive in 30 years. If we really have to wait 30 years, then it'll probably be too late.

If Kagura remembers correctly, the final battle in the original story took place in Konoha 68.

If we really wait 30 years, the final battle will probably be over by then!

Moreover, due to my appearance, the world has completely deviated from the original plot.

Kagura was certain that the final battle against Madara Uchiha would come much sooner!

After mentally greeting the system, Kagura's emotions gradually calmed down.

Upon careful consideration, although he felt somewhat helpless, he had to accept the time given by the system.

Throughout the entire Naruto storyline, Madara Uchiha was the only one who evolved the Rinnegan on his own.

According to records, he obtained the Rinnegan after his final battle with Hashirama Senju, by acquiring Hashirama's flesh and blood and transplanting it into his own body.

However, by the time he finally evolved the Rinnegan, he was already nearing the end of his lifespan.

If you calculate the time frame, it seems to be roughly 30 years...

Thinking of this, Kagura couldn't help but sigh.

Looking at the 30 years in the system, he could only feel helpless.

but...

Since the system's tasks include rewards that increase attribute progress, it's likely that rewards that reduce fusion time will also appear in the future.

Chapter 107 Eternal Life

He shook his head, as if trying to vent his frustration.

In any case, the Sharingan's advancement is something to celebrate.

At least after evolving into the Eternal Sharingan, Kagura no longer needs to worry about the possibility of going blind.

You should know that he has no close friends or relatives from the Uchiha clan in this world.

If the evolution rules of the original storyline were to be followed, Kagura would probably never be able to advance any further in her life.

It must be said that having a system always brings some benefits.

With this thought in mind, Kagura, overjoyed, finally picked up Chiyu and got out of bed.

After washing up for themselves and their son, the father and son had a simple breakfast before heading out.

According to the unspoken rules of Konoha, every ninja who has just completed a mission is given a certain amount of rest time in the short term.

That's why Tsunade was able to leave her son behind and go to work without worry today.

With her son perched on her neck, Kagura, somewhat bored, wandered around Konoha Village with him.

As she walked, Kagura suddenly realized that it seemed like she hadn't seen Orochimaru in a long time.

After creating the artificial human Yamato, Orochimaru seemed to have fulfilled some kind of obsession in his heart.

In recent years, it seems that the topic of fusion between androids and bloodline limits has been temporarily put aside, and other topics have been tackled.

Because Kagura, who usually takes care of the child after Chiyu's birth, does not want her young son to see the bloody scenes in Orochimaru's laboratory.

So, after a while, Kagura hadn't seen Orochimaru.

Having nothing to do today, Kagura turned around and headed towards Orochimaru's house.

Upon arriving at the gate of Orochimaru's residence, Kagura did not walk straight in as usual, but politely knocked on the door.

"Coming~"

As he knocked on the door, a young girl's voice came from inside.

As the door opened, a girl who looked only 6 or 7 years old appeared in front of Kagura.

The girl had brown eyes, and her slightly long hair was tied up at the back of her head, like a hedgehog with its quills spread out.

After seeing Kagura's appearance clearly, she immediately took a half step back and spoke first:

"Ah, Lady Kagura!"

Are you here to see Orochimaru-sensei?

Kagura nodded and then followed her into the living room of the house.

Looking at the girl, Kagura couldn't help but feel a pang of pity.

The person in front of me is none other than Orochimaru's newly recruited student—Anko Mitarashi.

As his research deepened, Orochimaru realized he needed an assistant to help him.

However, none of the so-called researchers in Konoha were able to gain Orochimaru's approval.

So after much deliberation, Orochimaru decided to train a reliable assistant for himself.

And Mitarashi Anko was that lucky one.

Of course, in Kagura's view, this might be Mitarashi Anko's misfortune...

Being Orochimaru's experimental assistant—Kagura doesn't need to know anything about it; just imagining it makes her realize how terrifying it would be.

Surprisingly, Anko seemed to adapt well to her interactions with Orochimaru.

He has been following Orochimaru for almost a year and has never uttered a single complaint.

Come to think of it, the "Three Ninjas" all seem to be very good at teaching students.

Jiraiya goes without saying, but even Orochimaru in the original story seemed to have a knack for teaching disciples.

For example, Sasuke. Although he also had ulterior motives, it must be said that he did his best in teaching Sasuke.

"Lord Kagura, the teacher is still in the laboratory."

"Please sit here for a moment, I'll go downstairs and get the teacher."

After Kagura was seated, Anko bowed to her, gave her some instructions, and then walked outside.

Watching the red bean disappear into the distance, Kagura couldn't help but marvel once again at the coincidence of its fate.

Actually, it's not just Anko; Tsunade has also recently taken on a new disciple.

That's right, it's Kato Dan's niece—Shizune.

Although in this world, Dan Kato did not die in the Second Shinobi World War, Shizune still became Tsunade's apprentice, just like in the original story.

The reason is simple: Tsunade discovered that Shizune had the talent to learn medical ninjutsu.

It's important to know that talent is required to learn medical ninjutsu and become a medical ninja.

Moreover, statistically speaking, this is a very rare talent.

This is why medical ninjas have always been scarce in the numerous Shinobi World Wars.

So when Tsunade discovered that Shizune had a talent for learning medical ninjutsu, she took her in as a disciple without hesitation.

Although Kagura harbored a certain unspoken prejudice against Kato Dan, he did not express any opinion regarding Tsunade taking on a disciple.

Just as Kagura was lost in thought, a refined-looking man dressed in a white kimono slowly walked in from outside.

The visitor was none other than Orochimaru, whom we hadn't seen in a long time.

Upon seeing his close friend, he smiled and said with a hint of happiness:

"It's quite rare that you would bring your son to visit me."

Upon hearing his voice, Chiyu, who had been held by Kagura, shrank into his father's arms with a hint of fear, leaving only his round eyes staring at the strange uncle in front of him.
