Starting with the Uchiha clan, they began cultivating demonic arts.

Chapter 8 The Soul is Obtained

The negative consequences of White Fang's death are unfolding, but none of this has much to do with Uchiha Tou, a ninja academy student who is about to graduate.

As the first outsider to discover White Fang's suicide, Uchiha Tou was released after being interrogated all night.

To everyone else, this matter didn't really concern him. No one knew what Uchiha Touyu had actually gained from this turmoil.

Back home, Uchiha Touya closed the door and excitedly stretched out a hand. Faint blue light appeared in his hand, instantly expanding and transforming into the image of Hatake Sakumo.

However, this White Fang of Konoha was now semi-transparent, with a slightly confused look in his eyes, appearing somewhat sluggish.

Uchiha Touyu had already discovered that the Soul Binding Technique cultivated in the Naruto world seemed to be somewhat different from that in the Under One Person world. Perhaps due to the difference between chakra and qi, the souls initially bound by the Soul Binding Technique basically did not have complete rationality or thought.

However, as long as Fei Yu circulates his cultivation technique, these souls will regain their consciousness after a period of time. The stronger the Fei Yu is, the faster the recovery will be.

All Fei Yu had ever possessed were animal souls. He had thought that human souls would be different, but now it seemed that they followed the same original rules.

With a gentle wave of his hand, under the operation of the Spirit Binding Technique, Hatake Sakumo's soul, which was originally floating in mid-air, instantly transformed into a stream of light and merged into Uchiha Touyu's body.

In just a moment, Uchiha Touyu could feel his chakra surge instantly. Although Hatake Sakumo was not known for his chakra, as a Kage-level shinobi, his chakra was at least ten or twenty times stronger than Uchiha Touyu's at the moment.

Even after transforming into a soul form and not carrying chakra, it still possessed immense spiritual power, which nearly doubled after merging with Uchiha Tou's body.

Ultimately, the chakra within Uchiha Touyu's body is only slightly stronger than that of a Chunin, which is why the amplitude appears so large.

The increase in chakra was merely the most superficial benefit of the soul possession ability for Uchiha Tou. What truly transformed Uchiha Tou was the consciousness of Hatake Sakumo himself.

However, as soon as Hatake Sakumo's soul entered Tou's body, he felt his vision go black and a large amount of negative emotions instantly flowed into his mind!

Frustration, breakdown, despair, anger, worry...

Konoha's White Fang, who committed suicide, was clearly filled with resentment. To be driven to suicide by rumors and gossip, Konoha's White Fang could be considered, in a sense, a mentally ill person.

If Sakumo Hatake had even a trace of Uchiha blood, he would have activated a Kaleidoscope Sharingan by now, enough to impress the Konoha high-ranking officials!

Under the onslaught of a large amount of negative emotions, Uchiha Tou's eyes turned blood red, revealing a tomoe Sharingan. The tomoe in the Sharingan spun continuously, and after reaching a certain speed limit, it instantly split into two tomoe.

In an instant, Uchiha Tou felt that the quality and quantity of his chakra had increased to a certain extent. At the same time, the world in front of him became much clearer. In addition to the further improvement of his dynamic vision, he could also vaguely see the flow of chakra.

However, Uchiha Touyu didn't have time to be happy. He covered his head for a long time before recovering from the emotional shock of Hatake Sakumo.

Without saying a word, Uchiha Touyu, having recovered, closed his eyes and projected his spirit into the Purple Mansion in his mind.

In that spiritual world, a figure shrouded in black smoke stood tall.

The so-called black smoke was actually the resentment of Hatake Sakumo when he died, like the animal souls that Uchiha Touyu captured before. Because of their low intelligence, their resentment was just some gray smoke.

Not only was Hatake Sakumo's soul powerful, but he also died with a lot of resentment, so it's no wonder that he turned into such a great demon king in the spiritual realm.

However, in reality, this resentment dissipated by more than half after it helped Uchiha Tou's Sharingan evolve into two tomoe. In just a short while, all the black smoke had vanished without a trace.

"Where...am I? Is this a Pure Land?"

"I'm sorry, Senior Sakumo, you are not going to the Pure Land right now, but are in my spiritual space."

Upon hearing that somewhat familiar voice, Hatake Sakumo quickly looked up and saw Uchiha Tou standing in front of him.

"You are... Kakashi's Uchiha friend? Uchiha Touu? Is this your mental space? You've bound my soul?"

A strange expression appeared on Hatake Sakumo's face. He simply couldn't imagine that he would run into his son's classmate.

In the eyes of Konoha's White Fang, Uchiha Tou was just an unmotivated Uchiha with a certain degree of sobriety.

His talent is not bad, but because he was too old to enroll, his strength is just average. He doesn't seem like someone who has restrained his soul.

"Indeed, Senior Sakumo. Finding a soul as powerful as yours is no easy feat, so I can only apologize for the intrusion."

As he spoke, Uchiha Touya subtly twitched his fingers, and Hatake Sakumo immediately felt a tremendous sense of restraint emanating from him.

The Eight Extraordinary Techniques in the world of Under One Person possess a level of priority that can be described as bug-like in their respective fields. In the original work, even those family immortals who have cultivated for hundreds or thousands of years are powerless against cultivators who can bind and command spirits.

When Hatake Sakumo was alive, he didn't need a second strike to kill Uchiha Touyu, but after he died and became a spirit, it was only a matter of a single thought for Uchiha Touyu to control him.

Of course, Uchiha Tou didn't actually control Hatake Sakumo; he merely demonstrated that he had such an ability before giving up on controlling Sakumo's soul.

Just like the Impure World Reincarnation technique, even if the physical conditions of a tightly controlled impure body are exactly the same as those of an impure body with its own will, the difference in strength is enormous due to factors such as combat experience and fighting spirit. Uchiha Tou naturally hoped to have a self-aware Sakumo Hatake to help him.

Despite this, Hatake Sakumo could still sense Uchiha Tou's restraining power over him. A wry smile appeared on his face as he spoke:

"I never imagined... that even death wouldn't bring peace? So, Uchiha Touya, what exactly do you intend to do with my soul?"

"It's very simple, Sakumo Hatake-senpai. I hope to borrow your power!"

"My power..."

"Yes, my secret technique allows me to directly borrow the power carried by the souls I control. With the help of a powerful soul, I can easily increase my strength!"

"Although I can forcibly control the soul in my hands, compared to that, it is only with your willing cooperation, senior, that the effect of this secret technique can be maximized!"
