Konoha's Hextech Ninja

The shockwave spread far and wide, making the devastating commotion clearly felt several kilometers away.

"happy!"

Yagami Yoruichi repeatedly swung her sword at the Gedo Mazo.

This exhilarating battle was the first time Yagami Yoruichi had experienced since arriving in this world.

Because of Yagami Yoruichi's personality, she will endure as much as possible without absolute certainty, until her power can overwhelm the enemy, then she will crush the opponent instantly with lightning speed, giving the enemy no chance to struggle or resist.

This resulted in almost all of Yagami Yoruichi's battles being one-sided.

Battles that could even give Yoruichi Yagami a little exercise are almost nonexistent.

In fact, if Yagami Yoruichi were to go all out, the Gedo Mazo, having lost its Tailed Beast chakra, wouldn't last long and would be destroyed by Yagami Yoruichi in a short time.

However, by limiting herself to using only a relatively weak system among the many systems she controlled, Yagami Yoruichi was able to fight the Gedo Mazo to a standstill, only gaining a slight advantage.

This allowed Yoruichi Yagami to finally vent her frustrations.

However, without chakra support, the Gedo Mazo, which relies solely on Nagato's chakra to maintain its movements, is simply unable to sustain a prolonged battle.

Within just a few minutes, the movements began to slow down.

Yagami Yoruichi turned his head and saw that Nagato's body had become even thinner. His already emaciated appearance had now turned into nothing more than skin and bones.

His life force was like a flickering candle in a storm, teetering on the brink of extinction.

"If we keep fighting, this guy will die."

Yagami Yoru glanced into the distance.

The battle on Tsunade's side was coming to an end.

Aside from Hiruko being spared by Tsunade and Kakuzu surrendering quickly when things went wrong, thus saving his life.

The other S-rank rogue ninjas were either already dead or barely clinging to life and wouldn't last much longer.

"It's almost time to wrap things up here too."

Yagami Yoruichi made his decision, switched to the Rinnegan, and channeled Yin-Yang Release chakra into the giant sword, thrusting it towards the chest of the Gedo Mazo.

With the Yin-Yang Release buff, the Gedo Mazo, which could originally withstand attacks with its tough skin, was easily pierced by Yagami Yoruichi's giant sword.

Then, Yagami Yoruichi raised her left hand, and a golden light flashed from her fingertips.

As the light swept across, the black rods connecting the Gedo Mazo to Nagato were severed.

Yagami Yoruichi used the red tomoe Rinnegan's eye technique to create a fishing rod and 'fished out' Nagato's chakra.

Then, he instantly stepped forward, and with a flick of his fingers, the two Rinnegan eyes detached from Nagato's eye sockets and fell into Yagami Yoruichi's hands.

"Ah~!"

Nagato let out a scream.

But having lost his chakra and Rinnegan, and with his body already at its limit, he was no longer able to put up any resistance.

"Nagato!"

Konan cried out anxiously, but she too had lost all her chakra and could only lie on the ground, watching Nagato let out painful howls.

Ignoring the two, Yagami Yoruichi activated the power of her Rinnegan and attempted to establish a connection with the Gedo Mazo.

Soon, Yoruichi Yagami sensed the Gedo Mazo and successfully brought it under control.

"So easy?" Yagami Yoruichi was slightly puzzled, but he didn't think much of it and controlled the Gedo Mazo to return to silence and sink into the ground.

There's no need to deal with the demonic statue right away; just leave it here for now.

It doesn't matter if someone takes it away.

Anyway, with the Rinnegan, I can summon the Gedo Mazo at any time.

Moreover, in this ninja world, apart from myself who has the Rinnegan, no one can touch the Gedo Mazo.

Yoruichi Yagami detached from her 'Great Annihilation Form', retrieved her Kusanagi sword, and came to Nagato, placing a sealing jutsu on him.

Then, carrying Nagato, he walked up to Konan.

"Don't hurt Nagato..." Konan struggled to sit up, pleading, "Please, don't kill him!"

"Tsunade has given you a chance to live. Whether you survive or not depends on your performance."

Yagami Yoruichi raised his hand and placed a chakra-sealing seal on Konan as well, then teleported the two of them to the distant battlefield.

On this side, the battle is over.

Tsunade and the others were guarding Hiruko and Kakuzu. The remaining Akatsuki members were almost all dead or wounded. Only a few lucky ones, who had been severely injured by Sasori and were still alive, lay trembling among the corpses.

"What's going on?" Yagami Yoruichi glanced at Kakuzu and said, "I don't remember this guy being among the people I planned to recruit."

“He surrendered too quickly. I thought it was better to avoid trouble. If the leader doesn’t need him, it doesn’t matter if he’s killed.” Kisame Hoshigaki chuckled as he pierced Kakuzu’s body with his Samehada sword. Looking at the several hearts inside Kakuzu’s body that were wrapped by the tentacles of Earth Grudge Fear, he said with a smile, “This secret technique is very special. It might be worth studying.”

"It's far inferior to my immortality technique." Orochimaru said with a look of disdain through the Second Tsuchikage 'Mu' that he controlled. "He can only maintain his life by plundering hearts, his strength is locked, and there is never any room for improvement. Living like this, he is just a walking corpse."

Upon hearing this assessment, Kakuzu's face showed resentment.

But his previous defeat left him unable to offer any rebuttal, and he could only angrily lower his head.

“I’ve heard about Kakuzu. His Earth Grudge Fear technique is a bit useless, but his obsession with money is rare in the ninja world. Perhaps it can be useful in this regard.” Yagami Yotsuichi said to Kisame Hoshigaki, “Take him back. If he’s willing to work for us, keep him. If not, kill him.”

"Money?" Kakuzu raised his head, staring at Yagami Yoruichi with his small green eyes.

At that moment, he felt as if he had found a kindred spirit.

“Hiruko is also willing to join us, but I only believe half of what he says,” Tsunade said to Yoruichi Yagami. “If we want him to stay, we’d better take some measures.”

“Sealing techniques and surveillance are definitely necessary until he gains trust.” Yagami Yoruichi didn’t mince words and said to Tsunade in front of Hiruko, “Take him back first. He’s quite talented. Arrange a laboratory for him.”

"Go back and tell the Daimyo, I have no say in these matters." Tsunade pursed her lips, looked at Nagato and Konan being carried by Yagami Yoruichi, noticed Nagato's missing eye sockets, and asked, "What happened to him?"

"Madara's Rinnegan is now in my hands. As for whether to destroy it or keep it for someone else, I haven't decided yet. After all, these eyes belong to Madara, and there might be something wrong with them. I'll go back and examine them carefully first."

When Yagami Yoruichi said this, she made no attempt to hide anything.

Upon hearing Yagami Yoruichi mention the 'Rinnegan', Orochimaru's eyes blazed with intense curiosity and longing.

Nagato, on the other hand, trembled slightly before regaining his composure, as if he had already fainted.

“Madara…” Tsunade clearly remembered the 'story' Yagami Yoruichi had told her, and frowned, “Madara’s plan, could there be other backup plans? What if he were to come back to life…”

“No.” Yagami Yoruichi said nonchalantly, “Even if he revives, I can easily kill him again, and even destroy his soul.”

"Let's go back first. There's a lot of things to take care of when we get back."

Yagami Yoruichi changed the subject, handing Nagato and Konan to Tsunade, saying, "By the way, these two are yours. If you can't persuade them, just kill them."

Tsunade rolled her eyes, but didn't refuse. She took Nagato and Konan, and even leaned down to whisper a few words in Konan's ear.

Chapter 270 Four Spots

Leaf.

Despite saying he was busy, Yagami Yoruichi actually became a hands-off manager as soon as he returned to Konoha.

They left all the cleanup work to Tsunade, Orochimaru, and the others.

Yoruichi Yagami, on the other hand, returned home and played with a pair of eyes in his hands.

"Madara Uchiha's eyes, tsk tsk."

As Yagami Yoruichi sensed the power in those Rinnegan eyes, a sense of curiosity arose within her.

I wonder if I can absorb the power within these Rinnegan eyes?

If one can absorb it, then is this portion of eye power considered as something that has been plundered by oneself, or is it the eye power of Ōtsutsuki Urashiki, which belongs to oneself?

However, despite her curiosity, Yoruichi Yagami did not attempt anything recklessly.

Within those Rinnegan eyes, Yagami Yoruichi sensed traces of the cursed seal.

It seems that this was a contingency plan left behind by Madara Uchiha to better control Nagato.

Who knows if absorbing this eye power will affect the cursed seal left by Madara Uchiha?

Yoruichi Yagami was very confident in her abilities, but she didn't want to cause trouble for herself.

Most importantly, the eye techniques contained in Madara Uchiha's Rinnegan are not powerful.

Limbo-Border Prison looks powerful, but it can only be used to bully weaker opponents.

They can basically kill anyone below the Six Paths level instantly.

However, it is not as useful as an ordinary physical clone against a powerhouse at the Six Paths level.

This eye technique was far less powerful than Urashiki Otsutsuki's eye technique, and it was unlikely to arouse Yoruichi Yagami's interest.

"The eye power is somewhat useful, but it's tainted by the cursed seal cast by Yin-Yang Release. This poisonous eye power is better off without."

Yagami Yoruichi shook her head and stored the Rinnegan in a pre-prepared culture medium.

As for how to use those eyes, Yagami Yoruichi hasn't figured it out yet.

Even if these Rinnegan eyes were 'poisoned', they are still highly sought-after items in the ninja world, and certainly cannot be disposed of casually.

Let's give it to Orochimaru to study first, and see if he can find anything of value in it.

While we're at it, let's explore whether we can remove the cursed seal inside the Rinnegan without compromising its quality.

If the curse mark can be successfully removed, then these eyes could create a powerful being who is guaranteed to reach the Shadow level, or even has the potential to cross the threshold of the Six Paths level.

Yoruichi Yagami also has a deep understanding of Yin-Yang Release.

However, Yagami Yoruichi hasn't dealt with the cursed seal much, and it will take some time to study it before she can confirm whether the cursed seal in these Rinnegan eyes can be removed.

Put away the Rinnegan.

Yagami Yoruichi took out another Sharingan and examined it for a while.

This is Obito Uchiha's Kamui Mangekyou Sharingan.

Their abilities are quite good.

However, without the support of Hashirama cells, the depleted pupil power cannot be replenished, and one will go blind in no time.

This incredibly powerful eye technique also consumes an astonishing amount of energy, causing blindness to occur much faster than with a regular Mangekyou Sharingan.
