Chapter 175 Flaw, Die Again! (Please Subscribe and Vote)

"Three pairs of Mangekyou Sharingan... even two pairs of Mangekyou Sharingan could make the Konoha higher-ups howl like dogs."

Once outside the Uchiha clan's territory, Hoshino Shuichi remained silent to himself.

Perhaps selfish people cannot understand the magnanimity of those who have "great love".

"However, it seems that the Third Hokage did not know about Izanagi, and Danzo obtained this secret technique from somewhere, especially before the Uchiha clan was massacred."

Under the stars, Xiu Yi frowned.

Thinking of that old man Danzo, Hoshino Shuichi suddenly understood the Second Hokage and Danzo's attitude towards the Uchiha clan.

They're all ticking time bombs; they might turn into lunatics at any moment, their power exploding.

Without the aura of Hashirama Senju to suppress all enemies, how could one not be wary?

The more he learned about the Uchiha clan, the more he feared them and wished he could eliminate them as soon as possible.

Because this is the safest and simplest method!

And then I thought of Obito Uchiha.

If there's no way to salvage it...

The two Kamui, plus Hashirama cells, and Susanoo.

Even Hoshino Shuichi couldn't help but feel a headache coming on.

In order to control Obito Uchiha, Madara deduced that Madara would definitely use the pretext of implanting Hashirama cells to place a cursed seal on Obito's heart.

Thank goodness Lin didn't die!

"Will Madara Uchiha send White Zetsu to kill Rin?"

"The more you do, the more mistakes you make..."

At this moment, even Hoshino Shuichi himself sensed the drastic changes that would occur in the future.

Or rather, his appearance and every move he makes will influence the changes in the future that he knows.

To be honest, I'm a little panicked.

"So you're all cheating, huh?"

"Then let's see who can open the biggest and longest!"

Hoshino Hideichi disappeared and arrived at Konoha Hospital.

Although it was a regular ward, it was guarded by ANBU ninjas.

After dispelling the shadow clone, Hoshino looked at Kakashi, who was sitting by the hospital bed with his eyes downcast, and did not disturb them.

"Kakashi, he probably won't be single forever, right?"

Hoshino Hideichi turned and left, but a single hair of his fell with the wind and landed in the flowerbed, turning into a dormant pebble.

After leaving Konoha Hospital and glancing at the already darkening sky, Hoshino Shuichi went straight home.

Asuka was busy in the kitchen, while Hoshino Shuichi, after washing up, leaned against the door and watched quietly, but countless random thoughts were swirling in his mind.

Will Asuka die in battle later?

Will Yakushi Nonou be targeted by Black Zetsu and White Zetsu?

Mute...

An insecurity overwhelmed me, as if I had developed paranoia.

"The Xuanpi Ancient Divine Seal must be further developed..."

Hoshinoichi collected his thoughts and returned to his training.

Sufficient strength is the only guarantee of safety.

There's also how to deal with Susanoo.

How about we get a Gundam to pilot?

"Lava Release is possible... After taking down the [Medical Master], I wonder how far I am from the First Hokage in terms of Yang Release nature transformation."

"But once we get the 'genius' title, it'll only be a matter of time before the mystery of Hashirama's cells is solved."

"And the physique of the Uzumaki clan..."

Looking at Asuka's captivating profile, Hoshino Shuichi said, "No, or rather, it's Asuka-neechan's constitution."

Hashirama Senju's Sage Body is passively healed; no hand seals are required, and any injury can heal itself.

From a research perspective, the interstitial cells exhibit highly active cells, self-division, efficient reproduction, and difficulty in control.

It could even be said that the intercolumnar cells are overactive.

This can be seen as a manifestation of a change in the nature of Yang Dun (a type of escape technique).

Meanwhile, Asuka and Karin, both possess amazing healing properties, but with different manifestations.

Simply put, compared to Hashirama Senju's Sage Body, it is active healing.

Even if they are injured, they need to bite to trigger healing.

At the same time, Hashirama Senju's Sage Body's self-healing ability is limited to himself and cannot be transferred to others; cell transplantation is even more difficult for most people to withstand.

Asuka's unique constitution allows her to heal others and replenish chakra.

Although he hasn't started studying Asuka's cells yet, Hoshino Shuichi has a good understanding of them.

Although Asuka's cellular activity is also far beyond that of ordinary people, it can be described as inert compared to Hashirama Senju.

One is passive, the other is active.

One is transitional and the other is highly introverted.

This is why Shuichi Hoshino felt that Hashirama Senju's Sage Body was incomplete.

Combining the advantages of Hashirama cells and Asuka's constitution, it can heal itself, cure diseases, and be fully controlled, perhaps making it the perfect Sage Body.

However, all of this is still just Hoshino Shuichi's own speculation.

Further in-depth research is needed to determine the next steps, which is one of the reasons why he previously established his own experimental base.

……

A mountain cemetery.

Obito Uchiha, who had followed White Zetsu here, saw Madara Uchiha, who looked like an old man with tubes inserted into his body.

He turned to look at White Zetsu, his Mangekyou Sharingan gleaming: "Are you kidding me?"

"Of course not!"

White Zetsu chuckled and said, "This is your ancestor, Uchiha Madara!"

"Uchiha Madara?"

Obito Uchiha turned to look at the old man who seemed on the verge of death, and frowned, saying, "Madara Uchiha is long dead, isn't he?"

"That's someone from the same era as the First Hokage!"

Madara Uchiha opened his eyelids, and his three-tomoe Sharingan appeared.

He returned before Obito Uchiha, and his blind eye had been replaced; both eyes were now intact.

Illusion activated!

Obito Uchiha's mental will was immediately pulled into a mental space.

"Even though it's a three-tomoe Sharingan, its eye power is stronger than mine!"

Obito Uchiha was alarmed, staring at the old man in front of him with extreme apprehension.

At this moment, the aged Madara Uchiha twisted his body, reverting to his prime, and said calmly, "Whether I am Madara Uchiha or not is not important, is it?"

Obito Uchiha nodded: "That's right. Whether you're Madara Uchiha or not is irrelevant. What I want is a method to create a new world!"

"As you wish!"

Madara Uchiha waved his hand, and the surrounding scenery changed: "Before that, you need to understand the secrets of the Uchiha clan. This will help you use your power and clarify your goals."

"Of course, you can also learn about this secret from the stone tablet left by the Sage of Six Paths at the Naka Shrine of the Uchiha clan. However, with your current eye power, you are not able to read all of its contents."

A long story was told by Madara Uchiha.

The Sage of Six Paths, Sharingan, Mangekyou Sharingan, Rinnegan, and... Infinite Tsukuyomi!

Upon hearing about Infinite Tsukuyomi, Obito Uchiha's eyes lit up: "So, as long as we capture the nine tailed beasts, seal them inside that Gedo Mazo, and then use the Rinnegan, we can activate Infinite Tsukuyomi?"

Uchiha Madara: "That's right, I call it the Eye of the Moon Project!"

Obito Uchiha said, "Then, the First Hokage is dead. With your strength and the Rinnegan, capturing the nine tailed beasts shouldn't be a problem, right?"

Madara Uchiha said calmly, "Because activating the Rinnegan is too difficult, as you have seen in my condition."

"Only by being resurrected to its peak condition can one control the power of the Ten-Tails."

"Furthermore, don't underestimate the power of the Five Great Ninja Villages. If you want to create a completely new world, you must break the order they have established."

"You will become an enemy of the entire ninja world!"

"Your eye technique is good, but you've only just awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan and haven't evolved to its eternal state yet. I've mentioned this before, and you should have sensed it, right?"

Obito Uchiha subconsciously touched his eyes.

Indeed, he had already felt the burden that the Kaleidoscope Eye Technique was putting on his eyes.

Madara Uchiha said, "So, next you need to transplant Hashirama's cells to eliminate the side effects caused by using the Mangekyou Sharingan and prevent you from going blind."

……

Outside the mental space, the White Zetsu controlling Uchiha Yu received the information transmitted back by the White Zetsu outside. He glanced at Uchiha Obito, who had his eyes closed, and said to Uchiha Madara, "Lord Madara, I must tell you some very bad news."

"Nohara Rin is not dead, although it's not much different from being dead."

"However, it seems that with Konoha's medical technology, a cure is only a matter of time."

Madara Uchiha was somewhat surprised: "Is he a descendant of Hashirama? I didn't expect him to be so capable."

White Zetsu immediately became interested: "Lord Madara is mistaken. It's that guy named Hoshino Shuichi who probably used Hashirama cells."

"This is going to be troublesome!"

"Konoha is now protecting that girl very closely."

If Rin Nohara hadn't died, would Obito Uchiha still have considered carrying out the Eye of the Moon Plan?

Madara Uchiha couldn't help but frown slightly.

The kid he hadn't paid much attention to before had actually made his plans less than perfect.

Madara Uchiha suddenly asked, "You must have left spores on her before, right?"

White Zetsu immediately praised loudly, "As expected of Lord Madara!"

"However, I regret to inform you that, according to intelligence, that Hoshino Shuichi has placed a powerful sealing technique on Rin, rendering the Spore Technique ineffective!"

"Of course, as a unique android, White Zetsu has no problem infiltrating, but given Hoshino Shuichi's intelligence, he should have made preparations, so the possibility of failure is very high."

Madara Uchiha said calmly, "Then let's give it a try!"

"As a Kirigakure ninja."

White Zetsu nodded: "Understood!"

As he spoke, he manipulated Uchiha Yu to walk outside.

Whirlpool White Zetsu said, "Lord Madara, although no one knows your identity, no one can guess the Eye of the Moon Plan."

"But failing to eliminate Hoshino Shuichi this time is a huge weakness, isn't it?"

"Under these circumstances, the life or death of Nohara Rin doesn't seem to be of much importance."

"If Hoshino Hideichi were to meet Obito Uchiha and recount what happened, Obito Uchiha might lose control."

Madara Uchiha certainly knew this.

The appearance of Hoshino Shuichi, and his failure to eliminate Hoshino Shuichi, created a flaw in his plan.

The best opportunity is actually to wait for a time when neither Minato Namikaze nor Shuichi Hoshino is available.

But this is obviously very difficult.

Because the Mist Ninja is already showing signs of being unable to hold on.

Therefore, Madara Uchiha had already prepared for the appearance of Shuichi under the stars, which led to that battle.

"I did underestimate that kid... but it's nothing serious."

Madara Uchiha chuckled inwardly, then said calmly, "She is indeed unimportant; she's just a pawn."

"Even Obito Uchiha, though a very suitable candidate, was just a useful pawn."

"Since it's a chess piece, it can be replaced at any time."

"If it fails, then tell him the good news!"

Faced with Madara Uchiha's capriciousness, White Zetsu could only laugh and say, "That's a real shame. It seems we need to continue searching for candidates."

Madara Uchiha said calmly, "No need!"

Someone with potential like Obito Uchiha will probably have to wait another ten years, or even longer, before another person appears.

But he couldn't wait that long.

Moreover, the time is almost ripe for Nagato as well.

……

After dinner, Hoshino Shuichi left a shadow clone at home to continue researching the Impure World Reincarnation technique.

After leaving the house, he created a shadow clone that went to the Mist Ninja battlefield, where Yekura was located, while his main body went to the experimental base.

First, we'll tackle the research on the Hashira cells, and then we'll study Asuka's cells.

Silent all night.

The next morning after training, Hoshino Shuichi went to Konoha Hospital to see Nohara Rin, and saw Kakashi standing blankly in the corridor outside the ward.

Stepping forward, Hoshino Shuichi stood side by side with Kakashi and asked, "The Lightning Blade is complete. Is there a next training plan?"

Kakashi shook his head and asked, "Obito...did he defect?"

Hoshino chuckled: "Kakashi, you should know him better than I do."

"It's unlikely he defected, but Lin's situation was a huge blow to him, so he was probably tricked."

"Furthermore, there were signs of manipulation in your pursuit by the Mist Ninja this time, and they weren't Mist Ninja."

"This must be a conspiracy specifically targeting Obito."

Kakashi exclaimed excitedly, "Shuichi, I remember you..."

Hoshita Shuichi raised his hand to interrupt Kakashi: "The key is not to find Obito, but to change his mind."

"Don't worry, the village won't abandon him."

The words had barely left his mouth when Minato Namikaze appeared in the corridor. The two quickly greeted him, "Minato-sensei!"

Minato Namikaze quickly approached the two: "How is Rin?"

Xingxia Xiu said, "The situation has basically stabilized. If the subsequent treatment goes smoothly, he can fully recover."

The three of them then entered the ward.

The ward is divided into an inner and outer section. The outer section is guarded by two ANBU ninjas, while the inner section is where Nohara Rin lives, and there is also a female ninja guarding the area.

At Rin's bedside, Hoshino Shuichi and Kakashi recounted the whole story. After listening, Namikaze Minato sighed and then comforted Kakashi, "Kakashi, don't worry, the village will find Obito."

"Shuichi, who do you think that mysterious person you fought was?"

Hoshita Shuichi's voice deepened: "Uchiha Madara!"

Kakashi was shocked: "How is that possible? Wasn't he already dead?"

Hoshino Hideaki said, "This is indeed a very surprising speculation, because Madara Uchiha lived so long ago."

"However, those who can awaken the Mangekyou Sharingan and also use the Uchiha clan's top-secret forbidden techniques must possess the complete heritage of the Uchiha clan."

"It's difficult for bloodlines that have been separated from the village to meet this requirement, and since he's not from the Uchiha clan in the village, then Uchiha Madara is a very likely candidate."

Minato Namikaze asked, "Is it because of that ultimate genjutsu?"

"It is indeed possible that they deceived the First Hokage during the battle at the Valley of the End, and it would not be surprising if they obtained the First Hokage's cells during that battle."

"But no matter who it is, you have to be very careful. The Mangekyou Sharingan is not something an ordinary ninja can fight against."

Hoshino nodded and then said, "I'm actually a little worried about Obito's situation."

Minato Namikaze immediately realized: "Is it because Rin didn't die?"

Xingxia Xiu nodded: "It's not just Lin's life or death, but also my appearance, which has created flaws in the mysterious person's plan."

"The enemy did not take Obito's eyes at the time, which clearly meant they wanted to use Rin's death to manipulate Obito."

"So, I plan to let Lin experience death again!"

Minato Namikaze frowned: "It will be difficult to hide this from them. Based on your deduction, they have strong intelligence capabilities and the ability to hide."

Hoshita Shuichi smiled and said, "I'm fairly confident about that."

As he spoke, he stepped forward and plucked a hair with its follicle still attached from Nohara Rin's head. The hair fell to the ground and transformed into Nohara Rin.

Minato Namikaze looked surprised: "Even their chakra is the same!"

Hoshino nodded: "Because it used Lin's cells."

Minato Namikaze nodded: "In that case, there's no problem."

"Now we'll see if the enemy shows up."

Hoshino Hideichi has some confidence in this.

For Madara Uchiha, Obito Uchiha was definitely a very useful pawn.

There's absolutely no better Uchiha clan now.

Even if we look back 10 years, we still won't be able to find it.

Despite Itachi's ruthlessness in slaughtering his entire clan, he was not as easily fooled as Obito.
