Chapter 240
The idea of using the Mangekyou Sharingan to open a spatial rift in a parallel world is indeed a bit outrageous.
It would be hard to believe if you couldn't see it for yourself.
Chiga could only shrug and say to Kushina, "Alright, it seems I'll have to wait a month to take you there myself!"
"Then I look forward to the surprises that world will bring me!"
Seeing Chiga say this, Kushina began to believe him a little, but then she thought it was too unbelievable, so she didn't dwell on it too much.
She was already very happy to see Chiga return safely.
There were no surprises, but plenty of shocks.
Chiga muttered something to herself, then turned to Kushina and asked, "By the way, Kushina-sensei, you've already met Nagato, right? How are the three of them?"
That battle didn't cause much loss for Chiga, but for Yahiko and the other two, it was a huge loss!
Not only was the Akatsuki organization, which had been built up over many years, destroyed, but Nagato also lost his eyesight.
Upon hearing this, Kushina nodded silently, a complex expression on her face.
After hearing about Chiga's disappearance, she rushed to the Land of Rain and met with Nagato and the other two.
After all, Nagato and the other two were the last people to see Chiga before she disappeared.
Nagato's scarlet hair was easy to spot, and Kushina immediately recognized him as a member of the Uzumaki clan.
However, at that time, Chiga had disappeared, and she was in no mood to nag Nagato, nor did she even bother Jiraiya.
Now, hearing Qianhe mention it, she thought of her clansman who lost his family when he was young and even had his eyes gouged out.
Thinking of this, Kushina's eyes were filled with helplessness.
Since the fall of the Land of Whirlpools, she never imagined that the descendants of the Uzumaki clan would live such an unfortunate life in the ninja world.
They were even used as pawns by others.
Kushina sighed and then said, "Those three are fine except for being a little dejected. They are currently still at Konoha's command center."
"Just being alive is already a blessing!"
Upon hearing this, Chiga also sighed.
"Yes, they've probably been hit too hard and are feeling quite down. Jiraiya is trying to comfort the three of them."
Kushina nodded in agreement, then continued, "When I came here, they told me that they would come to Konoha to thank you in person."
"Really? Then it shouldn't be long before we see the three of them regroup and start afresh!"
Chiga raised an eyebrow and smiled.
There's no doubt about Jiraiya's personal charisma, and he's also quite good at using talk-no-jutsu.
Kushina said wistfully, "But I don't want the Uzumaki clan's bloodline to wander outside anymore!"
"what?"
Chiga was taken aback and asked, "Kushina-sensei, do you intend to detain them in Konoha when they arrive?"
"Is that not allowed?"
Kushina countered with a question.
Compared to Jiraiya, who encouraged his disciples to pursue and realize their own dreams.
Kushina hoped to see the descendants of the Uzumaki clan live well in the ninja world.
"This is not a good situation!"
Chiga scratched his head and said.
"What's so difficult about it? Once they arrive in Konoha, the three of them won't have a say in the matter!"
"What use would Nagato, that blind ninja, be if he went to such a dangerous place as the Land of Rain!"
"Moreover, it's a pipe dream for them to think that their theory can convince the three major powers."
Kushina said nonchalantly that she didn't care at all whether the Land of Rain could achieve peace.
Moreover, in her view, the Land of Rain's geographical location was too awkward, being the intersection of three major powers.
If these three major powers clash, war will inevitably engulf the country.
It's simply impossible to persuade the three major powers to stop fighting with words alone.
"But coercion by force is ultimately a poor choice! You can't keep all three of them tied up all the time!"
"Give them some space and they'll probably be thinking about escaping every day."
Qianhe shook his head and said.
Kushina frowned and asked, "Then what should we do?"
Chiga stroked his chin, glanced at Kushina, and said, "How about I give it a try?"
"Hmm? You have a way?"
Kushina's eyes lit up upon hearing this.
"I can only say I'll give it a try; whether it will work out is still uncertain!"
Chiga thought for a moment and then said.
"Ha, I knew you were full of tricks. Tell me, how are you planning to persuade Nagato to stay?"
"secret!"
"Are you asking for a beating?!"
[Negative emotions from Kushina Uzumaki, emotion value +50!]
Those who returned with Kushina were Sarutobi Asuma, Kurenai Yuhi, and Shizune.
They were Chiga's subordinates, and since Chiga was staying at home, they had no choice but to return with Kushina.
In the grove of trees on the outskirts of the Uchiha clan.
Chiga and Kushina sat on a branch of a large tree, watching the fierce battle between Sarutobi Asuma, Kurenai Yuhi, and Shizune below.
"Huh, when did these three little guys become so diligent?"
Chiga looked at Sarutobi Asuma and the other two with curiosity.
Originally, when they were asked to cultivate, they would always argue about it before they would start.
I never expected him to be working so hard now!
Upon hearing this, Kushina glanced at the bewildered Chiga before sighing, "Idiot, they want to catch up with you, so they won't always be left behind by someone using lack of strength as an excuse!"
"Tear it up, then they'll have to try harder!"
As Chiga spoke, she sighed inwardly: the bonds she was building were growing ever stronger!
To be honest, I feel a bit guilty towards the three of them.
Ever since these three little ones came with me, it feels like they've grown up eating food from many different families.
During the battle against the Land of Wind, he spent a few days with Tsunade.
During the battle against the Land of Rock, he spent a few more days with Jiraiya.
Upon returning to Konoha Village, he surprisingly continued to follow Minato Namikaze.
After becoming the mentor ninja for Sarutobi Asuma and his two companions, Chiga Shin didn't have much time to teach them.
He also occasionally treated the three of them as a collector of negative emotions.
"Should we take them out for a walk to clear their heads?"
Thinking this, Chiga stroked his chin, pondered for a moment, and then suddenly laughed.
In this world, the Land of Fire, the Land of Wind, and the Land of Water are allied, while the Land of Earth and the Land of Thunder are allied.
Neither side was prepared for a decisive battle, so the situation in the ninja world was relatively calm.
Barring any major unforeseen circumstances, this is expected to last one to two years.
Therefore, the world is unlikely to face any major problems in the short term.
As for Uchiha Madara, that old guy is hiding in the shadows, and there's no news of him whatsoever.
Chiga couldn't find him for the time being either.
In another world, things are much more lively.
Before Chiga returned, he had already heard rumors that the Chunin Exams were about to begin.
This is a major part of the early storyline, so I have to participate and make my presence known.
Chiga called out to Sarutobi Asuma and the other two, "Chiga's team, assemble!"
"Has a mission arrived?"
Sarutobi Asuma and the other two stopped fighting and came to the big tree, looking up at Chiga with confusion.
Kushina also looked at Chiga, who had suddenly become energetic, with curiosity, wanting to see if her disciple was going to cause trouble again.
"Get ready! In twenty days, I will take you to a place where there will be a trial, a test for you!"
Upon hearing this, Sarutobi Asuma and the other two exchanged glances, then frowned and asked Chiga, "What place? And what kind of trial is it?"
"Well, please allow me to keep this a secret."
"Don't worry, I guarantee it will be a unique trial!"
Chiga said with a smile.
[Negative emotions from Sarutobi Asuma, emotion value +20!]
[Negative emotions from Kurenai Yuhi, emotion value +20!]
[Negative emotions from silence, emotion value +20!]
"Alright, you can continue your cultivation."
"By the way, I suggest you put some effort into your disguise skills; you can't be recognized where you're going!"
Chiga gave a hint, then waved his hand to send Sarutobi Asuma and the other two away.
Kushina, standing to the side, guessed what was going on.
Twenty days later, it will be the time when Chiga's Mangekyou Sharingan abilities are restored.
In other words, at that time, Chiga will open a spatial rift and take Sarutobi Asuma and the other two there for trials.
As for why they couldn't be recognized, it's because there were people in that space who knew Sarutobi Asuma and his two companions!
Could it really be a parallel universe?
Kushina immediately looked surprised and said to Chiga, "Chiga."
"Kushina-sensei, would you be interested in participating in a Chunin Exam that transcends time?"
Before Kushina could finish speaking, Chiga interrupted her.
"No, Chiga, is this really a parallel universe!?"
A glint of light flashed in Kushina's eyes. She had thought Chiga was joking, but it turned out to be true.
"certainly!"
Kushina, having received Chiga's affirmation, immediately showed a curious look.
Before she could speak, Chiga interrupted, "Kushina-sensei, I know you have many questions about that world."
"But I only went to that world for a month, so my understanding is incomplete."
"After you go to that world, you should see it for yourself!"
"Is that so?"
Kushina seemed thoughtful upon hearing this; she realized that Chiga had only been joking back then.
But things are different now, and I also remembered what Chiga had said before.
In that world, he and Minato were already dead!
This is probably why Chiga doesn't want to talk about it.
Damn it, the more I think about it, the more curious I get!
I really want to know how I died!
[Negative emotions from Kushina Uzumaki, emotion value +80!]
Another week passed, and Yahiko and his two companions finally arrived at Konoha Village.
At Chiga's home.
Yahiko, Nagato, and Konan were sitting in the living room of the Chiga family home.
Yahiko and Konan looked unchanged, but Nagato was different.
After losing the Rinnegan, Nagato's gaunt face was no longer visible, his empty eye sockets were covered by a black cloth, and his emaciated body became fuller.
"Lord Chiga, it's so good to see you safe and sound!"
"We want to thank you for rescuing us!"
Yahiko spoke respectfully to Chiga.
They had all witnessed the boy's strength, but that was not the reason for their respectful treatment of Chika.
Instead, it was Chiga who covered their retreat at the last moment, giving them a way to survive.
You could say that Chiga was their savior.
Chiga waved his hand dismissively and said, "Come to think of it, if I had been more careful, that wouldn't have happened."
He felt a little regretful when he thought about it; he never expected that he would be outmaneuvered by Bai Jue in the end.
This is why he started studying White Zetsu as soon as he returned, and in the past few days, he has already made some progress.
I believe that we will soon be able to develop ninjutsu that can sense White Zetsu.
"Don't say that. If it weren't for Lord Chiga, the three of us would still be kept in the dark!"
"Yes, yes, it's unbelievable that the people we spend every day with have turned into creatures that are neither human nor ghost!"
The four chatted for a few more minutes, but Nagato seemed to have reached his limit.
They came to Konoha to thank Chiga, but they also had another purpose.
Nagato gritted his teeth and said, "Um, Lord Chiga, do you still have the Sharingan you used in the trade?"
Upon hearing this, Yahiko and Konan fell silent and turned to look at Chiga.
Although Nagato's eyes had been gouged out, a hint of expectation could still be seen on his face.
Seeing that all three of them were looking at him, Qianhe had a thought and said with a regretful expression, "Well... you're too late. I've already returned it to the clan elder!"
"I see. Then, Lord Chiga, could you perhaps help us get the three-tomoe Sharingan again?"
"We can exchange other items with Lord Chiga!"
Nagato continued.
Upon hearing this, Chiga's expression darkened slightly, and he said, "Do you think that the Sharingan of our Uchiha clan can be obtained by simply exchanging money?"
"Do you know how many pairs of three-tomoe Sharingan there are in our clan?"
"Do you know how many ninjas in our clan, unable to awaken their Sharingan, have risked their lives to contribute to the clan, just in exchange for a pair of one-tomoe Sharingan eyes from their ancestors?"
Chiga's barrage of questions left Nagato speechless.
At this moment, Yahiko spoke up to help Nagato out, saying, "I'm sorry, Nagato was just too eager for revenge, that's why he talked nonsense. Please don't take it to heart, Lord Chiga, he didn't mean it!"
"I know, so I don't blame you."
Chiga said with a smile, then asked curiously, "By the way, Lord Nagato, couldn't you have just installed a pair of ordinary eyes? Why did you insist on using the Sharingan?"
In fact, Nagato could easily have a pair of ordinary people's eyes installed now.
What? You're saying that someone else's organs will cause rejection and death?
Come on, it's already an animation, why be so serious!
Later on, the Sharingan and Rinnegan are just plug-and-play gadgets!
Nagato said bitterly, "That guy's Rinnegan is still in this ninja world. I need power to fight those eyes!"
His entire life was controlled by others; an ordinary person would have had a mental breakdown long ago.
It's already quite an achievement that Nagato has been able to pull himself together.
Revenge is always the best motivation to become stronger.
This is one of the reasons why the three of them insisted on exchanging for the three-tomoe Sharingan.
"Speaking of which, that guy is from our Uchiha clan. It seems like our Uchiha clan owes you something!"
Upon hearing this, Chiga felt it was about time and sighed.
"Lord Chiga, please don't say that. We already knew that Madara Uchiha had betrayed the Uchiha clan. We're not so blind as to be unable to distinguish right from wrong!"
Yahiko shook his head and said.
"Alright, but I feel a little guilty about the three-tomoe Sharingan."
Chiga hesitated for a moment, then said, "Lord Nagato, what price are you willing to pay?"
In fact, Chiga was able to freely control his pair of three-tomoe Sharingan, which reflected his status within the Uchiha clan.
However, he had promised Kushina-sensei that Nagato would stay in Konoha.
So we have to resort to some tricks.
"I'm willing to pay any price to obtain the three-tomoe Sharingan!"
Nagato immediately spoke.
When Chiga heard this, she actually wanted to retort: "If it meant you would die right now, would you still want to?"
But after thinking it over, he remained silent for a moment before finally saying, "Lord Nagato, it's time for you to get married!"
These words immediately created an ambiguous atmosphere in the room.
Three days later, after Chiga had talked until his lips were sore, Nagato finally obtained the Sharingan with three tomoe.
As for the cost
To quote the Uchiha clan elders:
You've suddenly acquired a pair of three-tomoe Sharingan eyes out of nowhere. You think you can leave the Uchiha clan without having seventeen or eighteen kids? Dream on!
Yes, the price Nagato had to pay was a temporary loss of freedom. At the very least, he wouldn't consider leaving the Uchiha clan until he got his fiancée pregnant.
Chiga also wanted to try a union between Nagato, who had Uzumaki blood, and the Uchiha clan.
After all, the Uzumaki clan was once a powerful clan capable of establishing a nation.
As for whether their offspring will bear the surname Uchiha or Uzumaki.
Hehe, so you're planning to have seventeen or eighteen of them. What's wrong with splitting them in half and having the Uchiha surname?
The elders seemed to have no reason to object to such a good thing.
Giving up a pair of three-tomoe Sharingan in exchange for the chance to have the bloodline of the Uzumaki clan integrated into one's own clan doesn't seem like a loss at all.
Therefore, the clan elders were happy to cooperate with Chiga in putting on a play.
As for Kushina, after hearing about Chiga's method, she praised Chiga highly.
Her goal was simple: she would be content as long as the Uzumaki clan's bloodline could continue to be passed down in the ninja world.
Nagato, who was treated as a stud, had no say in the matter.
As for Yahiko, Nagato's close friend, he tried his best to persuade Nagato.
The girls of the Uchiha clan are beautiful and kind-hearted, making them a good choice.
You've hit the jackpot!
What? You got married? What am I going to do, Xiao Nan?
Do you think of me as just a figurehead?
Xiao Nan, he will take good care of her!
These words almost made Nagato, who already possessed eyes, activate his Mangekyou Sharingan in anger.
The grudges and entanglements between the three were beyond Chiga's control; he was merely helping Kushina-sensei keep Nagato in Konoha.
Moreover, this is something that benefits the Uchiha clan.
Ultimately, Nagato was unable to resist and was forced to remain in the Uchiha clan, waiting for the clan to select a fertile girl.
As for Nagato's good friends Yahiko and Konan, the three of them have never been apart since childhood.
Naturally, he remained in Konoha Village as well.
He failed to reach 10,000 words in a day, and even suffered writer's block; he nearly coughed up blood.
