Traveling through three generations: Making Konoha great again!

Chapter 176 Orochimaru and Kabuto's Encounter, the Love and Hate Between the Uchiha and Senju (8K6)

I've come to see the children—

Orochimaru unconsciously smiled at Hizashi, his expression very friendly.

In a sense, this person can be seen as the embodiment of a teacher.

Furthermore, after Orochimaru persuaded Hyuga Tenzo to give up the Caged Bird Seal, a natural friendly relationship had already been established between him and the Hyuga clan's branch family.

He also had a bloodline transplant and a cursed seal with Hizashi, so maintaining a good relationship with him would at least make Danzo more cautious when he caused trouble.

"The teacher asked me to do it—"

Orochimaru's heart stirred, and he added, "My teacher has been urging me to take on another disciple. I've been thinking about it, and if there's a suitable one, choosing a child from an orphanage would be a good idea."

"When our teacher took on disciples, it was just me and Jiraiya, two commoner ninjas, plus Tsunade—a lineup that would still be suitable even today—"

"As you know, Konoha is making quite a few moves outwards right now. Taking the orphan into the Hokage's lineage is just me, his disciple, doing what I can for my master—"

As the Hokage's apprentice, and Orochimaru, who was widely regarded in the village as the most likely to become the Fourth Hokage, taking on apprentices was a very deliberate matter for him.

The ratio of clan ninjas to civilian ninjas and which clans to select should be determined based on the specific circumstances of the village.

In special circumstances, one can, like Tobirama, use the title of "Shadow Guard" to recruit more people around them, expanding the scope of their allies.

Although Orochimaru was taking on a disciple, Hiruzen Sarutobi had no intention of interfering.

However, Orochimaru himself must consider the future of the Hokage; this reflects his overall abilities and qualities.

Hizashi's slightly stiff smile instantly brightened upon hearing Hiruzen Sarutobi's name.

In his view, given Orochimaru's status and lineage, almost no one in the village would refuse him a disciple; there was no need to come here to search.

So, his decision to come to the orphanage to take on disciples was, as he said, to share the burden of the Hokage—

Hizashi was a member of the Konoha committee and also the son of Tenzo.

It is naturally understood that both the current Amegakure and the future Kirigakure have a high probability of merging and integrating with Konoha.

At this juncture, choosing an orphan who wasn't born in Konoha as a disciple is indeed very appropriate.

This indirectly demonstrates Konoha's inclusiveness.

"Committee member Orochimaru, thank you for your hard work!"

"Some of these kids are quite good, perhaps to your surprise."

Hizashi pointed and emphasized a silver-haired boy: "This kid has a strong learning ability and is also very talented in medical ninjutsu. Candidate Nonou also speaks highly of him, saying that he has a very good personality—"

"His name is Kabuto Yakushi. His surname is from the candidate Nono, and his given name means 'guardian'."

The hood is an ancient type of helmet.

The meaning behind the name Nonou gave him was to encourage Kabuto to become the future armor of Konoha, protecting his comrades.

Orochimaru nodded slightly and asked in a low voice, "Thanks for the recommendation—how did you get here? Was it your idea, Master, or something else?"

"No, no—" Hizashi waved his hands repeatedly in denial, and whispered, "Since the village provided financial support, the orphanage has expanded on a large scale. Candidate Nonou has taken in many war orphans, and in terms of composition, it can be said to be a mixed bag."

"Although Candidate Nono was once known as the walking shrine maiden and the most elite intelligence ninja, it is still possible for a person to make judgments based solely on experience, and there is no guarantee that there will be disguised spies infiltrating."

"I'm here to check on the spies, and also to make sure the orphanage's funding is being used effectively—"

Looking at the children in the orphanage, Rizashi smiled slightly: "And to give them the necessary education on loving the village, so that these children who have suffered so much from war can understand who brings them hope—"

Orochimaru nodded in agreement.

Today, under the tutelage of the outstanding medical ninjutsu educator, Yakushi Nonou, the Konoha Orphanage has produced a group of medical ninjas of decent skill.

In Konoha, where the "Holy Land of Dan" and "Medical Chakra Scroll" projects are booming, these medical ninjas who can be quickly put to work are clearly what Konoha desperately needs.

But as urgent as the shortage is, the top priority for Konoha's core industrial technologies is to ensure that those in contact with them are sufficiently loyal.

Nono goes through it once, Hizashi goes through it again, and Danzo, Yamanaka, and the Uchiha clan will do a final inspection.

Three reviews and three proofreadings are conducted to prevent spies from infiltrating from all angles.

Other talented orphanage ninjas joined Konoha as supplementary recruits.

Having no innate power or influence, they grow up eating the Hokage's food and wearing his clothes, and will become the most solid foundation of the village's middle-level power, loyally supporting all of the Hokage's decisions.

"Take your time choosing, I'm going to get busy now—"

Hizashi and Orochimaru nodded and turned to leave.

"Kabuto?" Orochimaru narrowed his eyes, sizing up the silver-haired child.

He found Nono and asked her to call Kabuto out.

"Young man, do you want to join Konoha?"

Orochimaru said with a smile, "Nono told me that you have great perseverance and a talent for medical ninjutsu. Show me what you've got?"

Nono's eyes lit up.

She thought something had happened in the village—

It's Hiashiri, it's Orochimaru, and now Danzo's practically showing up too—

That's kind of scary!

It seems like they're going to take on apprentices?

"Kabuto, this is Orochimaru, the Hokage's most recognized disciple, an authority in scientific research and medicine, and the most respected member of the Konoha committee—"

Nono explained earnestly.

Clearly, the principle that flattery will always work, and it also applies to Orochimaru.

"No, no, not at all—"

Orochimaru let out a chuckle like an old man, and said with great humility, "It is true that I am honored by your kindness, teacher, but I am just a student in the fields of scientific research and medicine, and I cannot be considered an authority."

"I can only say I have some insights."

Upon hearing the title of Hokage's disciple, Kabuto's eyes lit up instantly, filled with excitement.

Before being taken in by the orphanage, he lived a life of poverty and hunger.

Barely relying on the special physical constitution of a ninja, despite her young age, she could manage to survive by scavenging for trash.

However, after arriving at the orphanage, although the conditions there couldn't compare to those at the Konoha Ninja Academy, they were still considered relatively well-off.

There was never a shortage of thick, warm clothing, and every meal was filled with hot food.

Dean Nono, along with several teachers who came from the Konoha Ninja Academy to teach, always taught the children ninjutsu with a kind and gentle manner, gradually nurturing their identification with and longing for Konoha.

It is no exaggeration to say that the most fervent dream in the hearts of every child in this orphanage is to become a dignified Konoha ninja.

Dou was no exception.

He had long regarded the gentle Nono as his own mother, and as a candidate member of the Konoha committee, Kabuto naturally wanted to follow in her footsteps.

Moreover, after Hiruzen Sarutobi's special funding and support policies were implemented, the orphanage's life became increasingly stable and secure.

Nonou sincerely told the children about the Hokage's deeds and kindness every day in the yard.

Over time, the children's loyalty to Konoha and the Hokage became almost as strong as that of the Root members!

Kabuto took a deep breath, nervously watching Orochimaru, his hands gathering fluorescent green medical chakra.

Palm Immortal Technique!

Kabuto focused intently on manipulating the technique, demonstrating his astonishing chakra control.

Despite being just a young child, the skills he displayed were in no way inferior to those of industrial ninjas who had been trained by Tsunade for years.

That's talent—

Talent is irrational; sometimes, just a little bit of resources can cultivate results far exceeding those of ordinary people.

"Interesting—" Orochimaru's eyes flashed with a strange light.

He didn't have high expectations.

After all, the quality of students in the orphanage is definitely much lower than that of those in Konoha.

Orochimaru couldn't find anyone in the village who really met his standards.

But a hidden gem has emerged here?

"Committee member Orochimaru, this child is very studious. Not only is his chakra control excellent, but he also has a great interest in reading various classic texts—"

Nonou's heart stirred, and she said gently.

She wasn't lying about this; a major way to instill a sense of belonging to Konoha in children was by telling them stories of Konoha's various legendary figures.

Kabuto was clearly particularly interested in Orochimaru.

"Committee Member Orochimaru, could you please sign your name for me?"

Kabuto looked at Nonou, took a deep breath, and mustered his courage to say, "I've admired you for a long time!"

Kabuto took out a card with a hand-drawn picture of Orochimaru on it.

It's a bit distorted, but you can still tell it's Orochimaru.

This is very popular in orphanages, where many children draw their favorite Konoha ninjas and collect them.

"Hehe—" Orochimaru took it and examined it closely.

The paper's condition, both new and crumpled, proves that this wasn't made hastily, but rather had been sitting in my pocket for some time.

He remembered the group photo of the Sarutobi Squad that Hiruzen Sarutobi had treasured.

My heart softened involuntarily.

"No need for a signature."

Orochimaru put the card into his pocket, looked at Kabuto's slightly disappointed face, patted his head, and said with a smile, "Would you like to come with me? Be my apprentice."

Dou's dejected mood vanished instantly, and her heart began to pound.

He looked up and stared intently at Orochimaru, his gaze frozen in place!

Lord Orochimaru wants to take him as his disciple?

Although Dou was young, poor children mature early, and he vaguely understood what this meant—

"I do! I do!"

Kabuto readily agreed, suppressing his elation, and looked at Dean Nonou: "Dean, I'm going to be Orochimaru-sama's disciple!"

"Remember to call him Orochimaru-sensei from now on—" Nonou smiled happily. "Committee member Orochimaru, I'm entrusting Kabuto to your care. If this child misbehaves, please discipline him strictly!"

"But he's a very easy child to raise, so that probably won't happen."

"Kabuto, you must learn as much as you can from Orochimaru, do what you can for your teacher, and become a powerful ninja who protects the village in the future!"

"Nono said earnestly."

"Don't worry, Dean! I will do my utmost to serve Orochimaru-sensei—"

Kabuto clenched his little fist: "I'll become incredibly strong! I'll protect the village and the Hokage!"

Orochimaru couldn't help but laugh.

Protect the teacher?

His intentions were good; he could understand the children's fervent hearts.

But the thought of the teacher lifting Hanzo up and slamming him to the ground made Orochimaru almost lose his composure.

As it stands, Hiruzen Sarutobi doesn't seem to need much protection; rather, he's the one protecting the village.

"Speaking of teachers, since you are my apprentice, I should take you to meet him—"

"Speaking of which, you should call him teacher, or rather, the Third Hokage—" Orochimaru said with a smile.

Only then did Dou belatedly realize a problem.

Orochimaru is the Hokage's apprentice; he is Orochimaru's apprentice.

In other words, he also has a bond with the Hokage?

Feeling dizzy, her little face unconsciously flushed red.

As a war orphan, he never imagined that he would have such an opportunity one day.

I never even dreamed that something like this would happen—

Nono rubbed Dou's head, feeling very happy.

The fact that a child from the Konoha orphanage could enter the Hokage's lineage is of great significance.

Prior to this, the orphanage was merely a peripheral institution in Konoha that sheltered war orphans. Even with funding from the Hokage, it never gained sufficient recognition within Konoha's system.

But now, a disciple of the Hokage and Orochimaru has emerged from the orphanage—

This is tantamount to branding the entire orphanage system with the mark of the Naruto lineage, giving it official endorsement from the top echelons of Konoha.

The pocket is like a lamp, illuminating a visible and tangible path for all the children in the courtyard.

Their dream of "becoming Konoha ninjas" has now found a benchmark.

Kabuto's experience will tell them that even war orphans from orphanages can be recognized by the village and favored by the Will of Fire, as long as they are loyal to Konoha and work hard.

For the orphanage, this provides a safety net, making future policy support and implementation in the village smoother.

Orochimaru patted Kabuto's head, suddenly sensing something.

His background is actually somewhat similar to Kabuto's; both were orphans whose relatives died in the war.

In terms of material conditions, he might not have been as well-off as he is now back then.

"The talent I displayed at the time might have been better than Kabuto's, but it wasn't exactly outstanding—"

"Back then, you could even say I was a bit naive." Orochimaru recalled his childhood self, his lips twitching, but also revealing a genuine smile.

It's a bit embarrassing, but it's also a precious memory worth savoring again and again.

"Why did my teacher decide to take me on as his apprentice back then?"

"Perhaps this is fate—"

Orochimaru took Kabuto's little hand and led him toward the orphanage gate: "Come on, no need to pack anything, I'll buy you new things when we get to the village—"

Kabuto felt Orochimaru's slightly icy hand, turned his head and waved goodbye to Nonou with reluctance: "Then I'm leaving with my master, Dean—"

Nonou smiled, her eyes crinkling: "Go ahead, go ahead! Come back to the orphanage when you have time, chat with the other kids—"

Kabuto nodded vigorously, took one last look at Nono and the orphanage, and then turned away.

This place is great; I'd be willing to stay here for the rest of my life.

But going to Konoha would obviously open up a much brighter future for them.

Moreover, Kabuto understood that Director Nono wanted everyone from the orphanage to be able to enter Konoha—

The Hokage sheltered everyone from the wind and rain, so naturally they should strive to become successful in return.

"I'll come back someday—" Dou thought to himself, "I'll work hard to become the next dean!"

Orochimaru, holding Kabuto's hand, squinted slightly in the midday sun.

Hiruzen Sarutobi, in the past, had also held his hand and led him into a new life in the same way—

"Passing down the tradition?"

Orochimaru thought to himself, "The Will of Fire truly exists—"

#

Leaf.

Uchiha clan.

Tobirama sat cross-legged, frowning, sketching on a piece of white paper with a pen in his hand.

As a top researcher in the ninja world, Tobirama possessed a sophisticated set of operational logic.

Making mistakes is not scary for him.

But what's scary is not correcting mistakes.

Just like when scientific research fails, if you don't look for the interfering factors and just blindly continue, you'll only waste a lot of resources.

Tobirama is currently analyzing his relationship with Uzumaki Ushio, trying to figure out what problems have arisen.

Izuna covered his face inside his body, and couldn't help but sigh, "Aoshui truly lives up to that bastard's reputation as a descendant—"

He has temporarily opted for the Holy Cut!

This was the first time Izuna had ever seen a man who, after being slapped by a woman, would return home and immediately pull out a stack of scratch paper, using logic to replay the incident.

Are you conducting experiments here?

"Losses of Interest", "Chain Risks", "Core Blind Spots in Self-Awareness", and "Subsequent Handling"

These are the main sections that Tobirama listed on the paper.

"Uzumaki Shio has the potential to become a lower-ranking replacement for Mito. My mistake, while bringing out her potential, also ruined our relationship—"

"The risk of this chain reaction is that Tsuna, Orochimaru, and Hiruko might misunderstand that I have a deficiency in emotional intelligence. I need to find a way to clear up their misunderstandings so as not to affect our daily scientific research collaborations."

Tobirama thought to himself.

After a moment of contemplation, he spoke to Izuna, "I understand where my problem lies—"

"Tell me what you think, I'm listening." Izuna kept a straight face. If it weren't for Aoshui's special status, he really wouldn't want to say anything more to this kind of idiot who quantifies emotions.

Love cannot be separated from material things and reason, but if every aspect is fixed, what's the point?

Nothing beats the exhilaration of a direct sword fight with Tobirama Senju.

"First, I brought the mindset of Kusagakure into Konoha."

"In Kusagakure, survival and safety are the primary needs; emotions are disregarded and must be extremely suppressed; the exchange of benefits takes precedence—"

"But Konoha is different. The ninjas here have their basic survival and safety guaranteed in their daily lives, so they pursue other things to satisfy themselves, such as emotions and their own ninja way—"

"We had different ideas, so Uzumaki Shio felt that I didn't respect her."

Izuna was stunned.

It wasn't this kid—

He was originally planning to give her a piece of his mind, but he got stuck on this stubbornness and actually came up with something.

That makes a lot of sense.

"I used to think that ninjas could make all problems disappear simply by suppressing their emotions and setting strict rules. I was just not looking at things dynamically."

"The village is developing, and so are the people, so the needs are increasing, which is normal," Tobirama sighed and said.

Izuna put aside his intention to "tease Aomizu" and nodded seriously.

It's not that I'm praising this kid, but he does seem to have the mindset of a Naruto!

Able to analyze the root cause from a macro perspective —

There were some things Tobirama didn't tell Izuna, but he knew them in his heart.

His misunderstanding with Uzumaki Shio was largely due to his long tenure as Hokage and the de facto head of the Senju clan.

Having held a high position for a long time, Tobirama developed a fixed mindset.

Everyone's actions should revolve around the Hokage's established policies.

Everyone's emotions should give way to the greater good, and there should be no complaining.

In a sense, Tobirama is also an old-timer from the Sengoku period, just like Isshin and Tenzo.

The old-school ninja mindset of the Warring States period, which sees their ninjas as gender-neutral tools, is incapable of understanding young girls' feelings; it's entirely based on the feudal patriarchal approach.

Tobirama was a top-tier researcher, politician, and tactician in the ninja world.

He has a rational logical model in his mind of "goal, condition, variable, result", and everything in the world can be broken down, calculated and optimized in this way.

But a young girl's feelings are illogical, disregard pros and cons, and are entirely based on emotion. They cannot be applied to his model for calculation, so Tobirama naturally couldn't empathize with her before.

"Is this what they call emotion?"

"An existence beyond reason, the source of the Uchiha clan's growing strength—" Tobirama closed his eyes, empathizing with Uzumaki Ushio and experiencing her journey.

He is now an Uchiha.

Learning to accept and feel emotions is also an essential practice for him.

Pure rationality is detrimental to the Sharingan.

"I can't use Izuna's Kaleidoscope for the rest of my life. Although the damage to 'Yata no Miko' is minimal, it's not a permanent eye technique after all—"

"I need my own kaleidoscope, my own eye techniques."

Thinking about this gave Tobirama a headache.

He can use secret techniques to stimulate the soul to forcibly activate the three-tomoe Sharingan, but what about the Kaleidoscope Sharingan?

Self-suggestion doesn't work.

"Izuna, aren't you a Sengoku ninja?"

"Why are you able to understand love?" Tobirama discovered the blind spot.

Both were ninjas from the Warring States period, and both held high-ranking positions in their clans. How come this guy knows so much?

Izuna chuckled: "I'll ask you, what is love?"

Tobirama frowned.

Izuna said softly, as if talking to herself: "It's not about romantic love, nor is it about fleeting pleasures. The essence of love is an ultimate bond that is exclusive and deeply mutually understanding—"

"Many ninjas have their own strange hobbies. For example, Tobirama Senju, I think that his research into forbidden techniques and his experiments were partly his way of relieving stress."

"Love is actually a kind of pressure relief valve. After two people establish a bond, they trust each other, are willing to share life and death, and can find a place to freely release the pressure that they can't relieve on their own."

"Izuna said softly."

"If it goes any higher, that would be amazing."

"Two people share the same ideals and hobbies, can resonate with each other's souls, and are willing to overcome all difficulties and obstacles together for the same ideal."

"I have been searching for this kind of love all along."

"But unfortunately, of all the women I've been with, many of whom trust me and whom I trust, none of them have reached that level."

Tobirama nodded thoughtfully.

If there were a woman who truly understood scientific research, shared many common interests with him, and was also good-looking, highly capable, and had a good personality—

Was he still single back then?

The root cause is that Mito and Hashirama chose the wrong marriage partners!

Tobirama also had mixed feelings because of Izuna's words.

How could this bastard guess that his method of decompression was experimentation?

"What you're saying sounds like you're trying to justify your own promiscuity—"

"But it's not entirely incomprehensible; the Uchiha's nature is to pursue the ultimate—" Tobirama nodded thoughtfully.

Izuna's eyes lit up: "Well said, Aoshui!"

In the past, even his older brother, Madara Uchiha, didn't understand why he sought out so many women—

It's just that I haven't found the one who truly understands me yet!

"Your definition of love—"

"Something feels off to me."

Tobirama frowned: "According to your logic, true love is between people who share the same ninja way. Then what about Madara Uchiha and Hashirama Senju in the past?"

This wasn't Tobirama picking a fight.

Instead, when he searched Izuna's words in his database, the two people who matched best were indeed the two he found.

The thought of Madara and Hashirama made Tobirama, the younger brother, unable to contain himself.

He will never forget it.

When Madara Uchiha was defeated, Hashirama had casually mentioned wanting to kill him now, and Hashirama's eyes were filled with murderous intent.

Tobirama had no doubt that if he really made a move, Hashirama would absolutely not hold back.

He could be seriously injured!

Furthermore, the way Hashirama and Madara both fought and cared for each other during the previous battles between the Senju and Uchiha clans always puzzled Tobirama.

too weird!

"This—" Even Izuna was a little flustered by this difficult question.

He once suggested that Madara use Hashirama's feelings to set a trap to ambush the Senju.

But at that moment, Madara's eyes held a ferocity Izuna had never seen in his entire life—

After thinking for a long time, Izuna said with difficulty, "You have to understand that love is essentially a bond. My brother and Hashirama have long since transcended the narrow concept of love. This is not enough to describe the feelings between them."

"If you're looking for the kind of relationship Hashirama and his older brother had, I advise you not to try."

"My eldest brother is the most emotional person I've ever met, but precisely because of this, being so affectionate means being suspicious. He always doubts whether the person he trusts most is out of sync with him."

"I don't know the specific reasons why he and Hashirama became enemies, but I can guess the general idea."

Izuna's gaze deepened: "When you trust someone deeply, you crave the same trust in return. This trust often amplifies inner sensitivities, especially for the Uchiha clan—"

"It is true that there is trust between Hashirama and his elder brother, but they are exploring a path that has never been taken before, and there will inevitably be clashes of ideas in the process."

"But for the eldest brother, this clash will be interpreted as a change in trust. When the eldest brother feels that the giving and receiving are not commensurate, intense hatred will arise."

At this moment, Izuna seemed to transform into a poet: "Love that is higher than the sky can often turn into hatred that is deeper than the sea—"

"I call it 'Hateful Sea, Passionate Sky'!"

Tobirama stared at Izuna, speechless.

He had always believed that emotions were meaningless and something to be suppressed.

But in Izuna's case, emotions seem to have been summarized as a discipline, with a complete system of discourse.

Izuna looked at Aomine and was also amazed by his rational ability to summarize and generalize everything.

This is like a thousand-handed Newton encountering an Uchiha Shakespeare—

"sharp--"

This was the first time Tobirama had openly praised Izuna.

"You're amazing too—"

Izuna sighed: "You look like me on the outside, but you're actually more like Tobirama Senju on the inside."

"What happened between him and me has nothing to do with you. You are innocent, Qingshui."

"I don't want to criticize him in front of you, a junior."

"You need to avoid the problems we had—I wasn't rational enough, so I made the wrong decisions, while he was too rational and lacked empathy, which led to a lot of meaningless friction and internal conflict."

"In short, don't go to extremes. As Hiruzen Sarutobi said, treat the ninjas as living, breathing people, fully consider the collective's evolving needs, and strive to achieve the greatest possible consensus."

Izuna said with utmost seriousness, "You must always keep your emotions stable!"

Tobirama's lips twitched.

Is he being lectured by Izuna to learn Hiruzen's Will of Fire?

He also reminded himself not to go to extremes.

You really think you're part of the Uchiha clan, huh?

But upon reflection, isn't absolute rationality just another extreme?

It's true that he will become the head of the Senju clan and the Hokage.

However, how to become a young ninja of Konoha is a subject that Tobirama still needs to learn.

There is some overlap between the two, but they are not entirely the same.

"I understand—" Tobirama sighed.

The fact that Izuna didn't take the opportunity to belittle Tobirama made him feel a little strange.

Perhaps it's time to let bygones be bygones.

Otherwise, wouldn't my own perspective be inferior to that bastard's?

"Let's put tide's matter aside for now; it'll be easier to explain later."

"If all else fails—" Izuna pondered, "You can blame it on your bloodline. You said that you've been reading too many of Tobirama's works and classics for research, and your mind has become a bit too influenced, so you haven't been able to adjust your mindset for a while."

"That's true!"

"Mito should understand; she knows what Tobirama was like before, just like you."

Tobirama's lips twitched.

Ok!

Why did Uchiha Aokiji try to frame Tobirama Senju for his crimes?

"As for Tomie—" Izuna rubbed his temples.

This is no longer a matter of explanation.

All the objective conditions have been met, which is like Izuna traveling back to the Warring States period and suddenly finding a Flying Thunder God kunai already at his chest—

What's the use of knowing this?

"Um--"

"You should stall for time. My suggestion is to bring up the bloodline issue first, then explain the misunderstanding and relationship between you and Uzumaki Shio, and emphasize your firm stance of not wanting to be in a relationship."

"If you try to hide it, given the Uchiha's personality, they'll start to overthink things, and the situation will become uncontrollable."

Izuna had a flash of inspiration.

To be honest, he has always looked down on setting up schemes for his own people.

But Tomie has already gotten herself involved, so it would be a shame not to guide her!

"You can tell her your criteria for choosing a partner, saying that you only want to find someone who understands scientific research, and that you don't want to establish a relationship with anyone before the ninja world is at peace and the village prospers."

Izuna coughed lightly.

Awakening the Kaleidoscope is a very difficult thing, so often when Sengoku no Kōjin sets up a scheme, he can only get a madman who isn't very strong in combat but is mentally deranged.

But Tomie is different; her talent is certified by a bloodline disease.

The probability of awakening the Kaleidoscope is very high.

Furthermore, Izuna knew that the Kaleidoscope Eye Technique was born from the reflection of the mind.

If Qing Shui explicitly states that his criteria for choosing a partner is scientific research, then there's a possibility that it might give rise to a very special pair of Mangekyou Sharingan—

It may not be very destructive, but it will have great strategic value.

However, Izuna was only making a casual move, and he wasn't sure if it would work out.

But it's better than nothing, I suppose.

Izuna knew what "Seimizu" was researching recently—

The task of weakening the activity of interstitial cells and making it safe is extremely difficult. Various methods have been tried, but almost none have been successfully implemented.

We've done our best with rational approaches, so if we use the "metaphysical power of the kaleidoscope" as a guide, we might achieve great results!

Although Izuna is a living dead, he is still concerned about the development of Konoha.

He made a decision that went against previous guidelines!

Slightly manipulate the awakening of the clansmen's eyes—

"This is the only way—"

Tobirama rubbed his cheek; the slap mark on it hadn't gone down yet.

When they got home today, Obito and Shisui were furious after seeing what happened. They vowed to avenge their brother no matter who did it!

But when they learned it was Uzumaki Shio who was attacking, the two of them fell silent.

Okay, okay!

at the same time.

Uzumaki Shio, filled with anger and resentment, went to Mito.

The moment she saw Mito, she immediately prostrated herself on the ground: "Lord Mito—"

"Please help me undergo the most rigorous training! I want power!"

Mito and Kurama, one human and one fox, exchanged a glance and saw the confusion in each other's eyes.

no--

Who did it?

That's incredibly fast!
