Analyzing the Ninja World Starting from Konoha

Chapter 193 The Inertia of Fate

Since he was approached by "Seimei," a wandering doctor, Aoba naturally did not hold back his medical skills.

In a place like the Land of Rain, medical resources are extremely scarce. There are hardly any qualified medical ninjas, let alone decent doctors.

Most of the members of Akatsuki were low-level ninjas and civilians from the Land of Rain. They struggled in war and poverty for many years and had various new and old injuries on their bodies. Many of their injuries could only be endured by their own recovery ability because they could not receive professional treatment.

Many people have even developed chronic diseases due to long-term malnutrition and harsh living conditions.

Aoba set up a simple examination table and began to examine each member of Akatsuki one by one.

Since he's taking action, he'll definitely get it over with in one go.

Almost everyone had various minor injuries, all from the battles and caused by improper treatment.

The green leaves should be cut and trimmed as needed, and then restored using either the [Healing and Regeneration Technique] or the [Palm Immortal Technique].

His exceptional medical ninjutsu amazed the Akatsuki members.

Even the usually aloof Konan had an unusual glint in her eyes as she watched Aoba skillfully treat the wound.

A few days later, Aoba took his leave.

"Mr. Seimei, are you leaving so soon?"

Yahiko's tone was filled with deep reluctance.

In the past few days, whenever he had free time, he would pull Aoba aside to discuss ideas about peace and national development, even though Mr. Seimei always used the most sarcastic words to make him doubt his life.

But after each session, Yahiko felt a sense of enlightenment, and the path ahead became clearer.

"I should continue my journey."

Outside the outpost, Aoba, carrying his pack, smiled at Yahiko and the others who had come to see him off and said, "I still have to go and find a true path to peace. However, I have indeed gained many useful ideas here. Thank you for your hospitality these past few days."

As he spoke, Aoba took out several sealing scrolls from his bag and handed them to Yahiko.

"Here are some healing and first-aid medicines I made in my spare time. They're quite effective. Keep them for self-defense. In this land, ideals alone aren't enough; survival comes first."

"Thank you, Mr. Seimei."

Yahiko solemnly accepted the scroll and bowed deeply. "Mr. Seimei, if one day you find the answer, please be sure to tell us!"

Aoba smiled noncommittally and turned to walk into the misty drizzle.

Watching Mr. Seimei's figure gradually disappear into the distance, the members of the Akatsuki organization did not look away for a long time.

"Yahiko, tell me—who exactly is this Seimei-san?"

Kyusuke couldn't help but ask.

The group looked at each other, none of them able to give a clear answer.

"Seimei is definitely not his real name."

Xiao Nan, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke up. Her cool gaze was fixed on the direction where Qingye had disappeared, and her tone was firm: "A person with such superb medical skills and such profound wisdom is definitely not an ordinary wandering doctor."

"So what?"

Yahiko laughed freely, gripping the sealing scroll tightly in his hand, his eyes shining brightly. "As long as he is a person who yearns for peace, then he is our comrade."

Nagato stood behind Yahiko, his Rinnegan, hidden by his red bangs, flickering slightly, without saying a word.

After leaving Amegakure, Aoba did not return to the front lines of the Land of Rivers.

Besides showing my face at Xiao's place, I also came out to collect some materials.

Unfortunately, no blood was collected from Nagato, but he left blood samples from everyone else, including Konan.

He could always sense Nagato's wariness of him, even though he never intended to cause any harm.

Aoba guessed it was because of the Rinnegan; he must have seen something.

Unfortunately, he also wanted to study what it was like to have descendants who possessed both the bloodlines of the Uzumaki and the Thousand Hands.

Looks like I'll have to wait until next time!

He then headed east, his goal being the Hidden Mist Battlefield, which marks the border between the Land of Water and the Land of Fire.

It was also his final destination on this trip.

He needs to take advantage of the current conflict between Konoha and Kirigakure to fish in troubled waters and collect more "materials" for bloodline limits. Of course, he could also abduct a few children if he could.

A few days later, Aoba, who was on his way, received the latest information from the summoning beast.

After reading the intelligence report, Aoba sighed helplessly.

"Indeed, the inertia of fate can sometimes be so great that it's a real headache."

From the ceasefire agreement signed between Konoha and Iwagakure, Kirigakure keenly sensed Konoha's weakened state, revealing its depleted military strength.

In order to achieve the greatest results, the Hidden Mist Village leadership dispatched their most prized and strongest fighting force—the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist—to infiltrate the Land of Fire and carry out decapitation and sabotage operations.

As if by fate, this elite squad, which was said to be able to destroy a small country, happened to run into the Mighty squad, which was on a reconnaissance mission.

Although Might Guy had already been promoted to Chunin at that time, he was still like a lamb to the slaughter in front of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen.

Just when things were at their most critical, Matt Kai's father arrived at the scene like a god descending from heaven.

Even at this point, Might Guy was no longer a "perennial genin" but a special jonin, but he was without the support of his comrades.

To protect his son and companions, Might Guy did not hesitate to open the final gate of the Eight Gates.

Death Gate!

Matt Day was killed in this battle.

At the same time, the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist also suffered a devastating blow.

All four died on the spot.

Only three people, namely Juzo Biwa, Hozuki Suigetsu, and Raiga Kurosuki, escaped with serious injuries thanks to luck.

Looking at this intelligence report, Aoba's feelings were somewhat complicated.

Even though he traveled through time and discovered the value of Mighty in advance, even changing the fate of many people, Mighty still embarked on the path of burning the life-protecting gem.

Perhaps, this was the most dazzling way for that man to end his life.

History seems to have returned to its original trajectory.

This surprise attack by Kirigakure has thoroughly alerted the Konoha leadership.

To prevent further incursions from Kirigakure, the Konoha leadership immediately dispatched a large number of personnel to the eastern defense line.

Of course, Aoba didn't know the specific list of those to be selected, but that didn't stop him from guessing what was going on.

This is another reason why Aoba passed on the information to him.

"Are we about to begin?"

Aoba pushed up his glasses, his eyes becoming deep.

"Has the gears of fate finally turned to this point? —"

The underground of the mountain cemetery.

The colossal Golem of the Outer Path stood silently in the darkness, radiating a chilling sense of oppression.

Below the golem, Madara Uchiha was listening to White Zetsu's report with his eyes closed.

"Lord Madara, that man named Seimei has already left Amegakure." White Zetsu's frivolous voice echoed in the empty cave.

"He stayed there for a few days, and apart from healing the kids' injuries, he just talked to them about grand principles of war and peace. Nothing special seemed to happen."

"Should we send someone to deal with him?"

"Just a self-righteous and boring person."

Madara Uchiha didn't even open his eyes, his tone revealing an arrogant and disdainful air.

In Ban's view, those so-called "mutual understanding" and "non-violent peace" are simply ridiculously naive.

What do a bunch of kids who can't even see the true face of the world know about peace?

Human nature's inherent flaws dictate that war will never cease.

Only his "Eye of the Moon Project," which uses Infinite Tsukuyomi to pull everyone into a dream world without pain or war, is the only true path to peace!

"As long as he doesn't have designs on the Rinnegan and doesn't affect Nagato, we don't need to worry about him."

Madara said coldly, "Let those brats play their ridiculous ninja games for a while longer. When the time is right, they will naturally understand the cruelty of this world."

"Yes, Lord Madara."

Bai Jue nodded.

"By the way, how's the plan going?"

Madara finally slowly opened his eyes, and even though only one Sharingan was visible, it still radiated a chilling light in the darkness.

White Zetsu grinned, revealing a sinister smile: "Everything is proceeding according to your plan. That little girl named Nohara Rin has already gone to the front lines of the Land of Water with the Konoha reinforcements, and we have also made arrangements for Kirigakure."

"very good."

Ban nodded in satisfaction.

Then, his consciousness fluctuated, and he used illusion magic to control a White Zetsu clone.

This white Zetsu clone silently passed through the stone wall and arrived at a sealed room deep inside the cave.

Inside the room, a one-eyed boy with only half a normal human body and the other half pale white was doing push-ups, sweating profusely.

"Nine hundred and ninety-seven — Nine hundred and ninety-eight —"

Obito Uchiha gritted his teeth, sweat dripping from his cheeks onto the ground.

In order to return to Rin and Kakashi's side as soon as possible, he worked tirelessly on rehabilitation training.

Seeing Obito's desperate efforts, Madara's lips curled into a smile.

"Try your best, Obito. Only when you see everything you cherish being destroyed before your eyes will you understand just how hopeless this world can be."

The land of water is shrouded in thick fog year-round.

On this damp land, killing and betrayal are eternal themes.

On the desolate open ground, several corpses of Kirigakure ninja lay scattered about.

Aoba stood beside one of the corpses and slowly withdrew his hand from the corpse's head.

"No?!"

Qingye frowned slightly and muttered to himself.

He just used his mind-reading technique to forcibly read the memories of this Hidden Mist Chunin, trying to find information about "Red Eyes".

Red eyes are an extremely rare eye technique and bloodline limit from the Land of Water, known as the nemesis of the Byakugan.

It can see through objects, sense chakra, and even create chakra illusions so realistic that even the Byakugan cannot see through them.

Now that Aoba has the Sharingan and Byakugan, he needs to find more bloodline limits related to dojutsu to facilitate his research on bloodline limits for physical body types (special physiques).
