Konoha: The Soul King from the Uchiha Clan

"Uncle, it's nothing, I just suddenly remembered a joke," Uchiha Gen said with a smile, waving his hand.

"Oh... tell me about it."

Having no other option, Uchiha Gen could only come up with a joke to get by.

Unexpectedly, Hamura Otsutsuki has a low threshold for humor; he laughed heartily at a joke that was clearly of mediocre quality and even asked Gen Uchiha to continue...

There was no other way but to coax him. He told ten jokes in a row before it finally stopped.

After finishing the pot of tea, Uchiha Gen felt that he had not gained any useful information, so he took his leave.

Otsutsuki Hamura naturally wouldn't stop him and directly fulfilled what he had said earlier.

With a casual gesture, Hamura Otsutsuki sent six black Truth-Seeking Balls floating behind him shooting into the sky...

The light membrane covering the sky revealed a circular portal at the right moment. The black Truth-Seeking Ball passed through the portal and condensed with the void, transforming into a giant black icy spike in the void. With a crackling sound, space seemed to tear open, and a black hole with a diameter of one meter appeared.

"Go, once you enter the cave, you will be able to return to the present world."

"Thank you, Grand Uncle. May you enjoy eternal happiness and longevity."

"Haha...you're quite the smooth talker."

"Go, but be careful in the future. The Pure Land is not a place for the living."

"Yes, I'm leaving now."

After saying this, Uchiha Gen bowed and then transformed into a streak of light, disappearing into the black hole.

The black hole closed, the light shield closed, and Otsutsuki Hamura tidied up the tea set on the table before slowly entering the room.

In the present world, somewhere in the void of the Land of Fire, a black hole suddenly appeared, and Uchiha Gen's soul emerged from it.

After discerning the direction, they followed their inexplicable senses and headed towards the Land of Whirlpools...

After his soul returned, Uchiha Gen's main body also learned about the Pure Land. After digesting the information, he returned to his secret base.

Pushing open the door to the lounge, Uchiha Gen walked in; Orochimaru and Tsunade were also inside.

"Did you go out for a stroll?" Orochimaru asked casually.

"Yeah, I was bored so I went out for a stroll," Uchiha Gen replied casually.

This stroll took us quite a distance, from the mundane world to the Pure Land.

"Should we leave now or stay a little longer?"

"Wouldn't it be like discarding a donkey after it has served its purpose, only to have it used and then discarded?"

Let's have lunch together today.

"Tsunade-senpai should offer a toast to the teacher."

Tsunade nodded slightly and said, "I should express my gratitude."

"You think you can just send me away with a toast?"

What do you want?

"Could you make a copy of your medical insights for me? I might need them for my experiments."

"it is good."

The three of them had lunch together, and then Uchiha Gen took Tsunade away and sent her home.

Uchiha Gen sat relaxed on the sofa and said in a deep voice, "What was his answer?"

Tsunade, who had just sat down, didn't react for a moment. Then she realized what Uchiha Gen was referring to, and her pretty face flushed red. She looked away and gazed elsewhere.

He wants me to be happy.

"I knew I hadn't misjudged him..." Uchiha Gen said seriously.

Tsunade rolled her eyes and said speechlessly, "Stop holding it in, just laugh if you want to. The way you're acting..."

"Ha ha……"

Uchiha Gen did want to laugh, and upon hearing this, he couldn't hold back and burst into laughter.

Although she brought it up herself, Tsunade couldn't help but feel a little annoyed when she saw Uchiha Gen's smug look...

Why are you lusting after her body? Can't a junior sincerely help an elder?

"There's no time like the present, so I think we should do it today."

After saying that, Uchiha Gen moved towards Tsunade...

"No, not today!"

"I'm not in the mood yet, let's do it another day."

Uchiha Gen looked thoughtful. "Alright, you have a point."

"But we need to give an exact number another day; you can't just keep dragging this out."

What a difficult man.

"Then it will be 7 PM three days from now."

"I'm a little tired, I'm going to rest now."

After saying that, Tsunade got up and walked towards the bedroom.

"Alright, I'll be going now."

Tsunade didn't say much, but raised her hand and waved it to indicate that she understood.

Uchiha Gen got up, went outside, closed the door, and then turned to look at the door, looking thoughtful.

A moment later, Uchiha Gen formed hand seals, the seals shifting and creating afterimages.

Immortal magic locks the soul realm!

The hand seals stopped, and an invisible wave swept in all directions, with countless white light points converging from the surrounding flowers, plants, and trees...

These converging white lights transformed into a verdant shield that enveloped Tsunade's apartment before disappearing.

Having done all this, Uchiha Gen's figure vanished instantly...

At 2 a.m., two furtive figures emerged from Tsunade's apartment, carrying packages in their hands.

The two walked all the way to the main gate of Konoha and arrogantly ordered the gate, which was tightly closed at night and should not have been opened.

Dark clouds obscured the bright moon, the night was deep, and the roadside was pitch black. The cool night breeze rustled through the forest, and the chirping of insects and the faint roars of animals formed a symphony of the night.

A pure white flame emerged in the deep night, so eye-catching in the darkness that it made the two figures stop in their tracks.

"Where are you two going, violating Konoha's rules so late at night?"

Uchiha Gen leaned against a tree by the roadside, a white cigarette with a white filter in his mouth.

He flicked his index finger, extinguishing the pure white flame. A plume of white smoke billowed from his mouth and nose, and his scarlet Mangekyou Sharingan emitted an eerie glow in the darkness.

Tsunade and Shizune, who had sneaked out, stood frozen in place as if struck by a spell, completely at a loss for what to do...

"Not going to answer?"

"Looks like I'll have to make another trip to Orochimaru-sensei."

Having said that, Uchiha Gen said no more, put his hands in his pockets, smoked a cigarette, and walked towards the gates of Konoha.

"What were you doing at Orochimaru's place again?"

Tsunade snapped out of her daze and grabbed Uchiha Gen's arm, her voice tinged with panic.

"There are tonics? I need to go eat some." Uchiha Gen said with a half-smile.

"No, please don't go!" Tsunade pleaded.

Why wouldn't I take free supplements?

"The Three Ninjas, huh? Their words are as empty as farts."

"Okay, I'm going back to sleep now, relax."

Uchiha Gen grabbed Tsunade's wrist and tried to pull away, but Tsunade was really strong, and he couldn't get rid of her with just his physical strength.

"Jingyin, go home. Let's talk alone."

"Oh... okay."

Still unaware of what was going on, Shizune was somewhat bewildered, but judging from the calm surroundings, she knew she couldn't linger. She immediately grabbed her package and ran quickly toward the gates of Konoha.

After Shizune walked away, Tsunade lowered her head and said softly, "I didn't mean to break my promise. I just can't accept it right now. I'll go out for a few days to clear my head and then come back."

"Do you think I'm a child?"

"Alright, Princess Tsunade is not worthy of my attention. Our previous agreement is null and void. Let's just do as we say."

"Let go, or I won't be polite."

Uchiha Gen, with a cigarette dangling from his lips, glanced sideways at Tsunade.

"I won't let go!"

"Orochimaru warned me, and I made up my mind before coming back, but this afternoon, as if possessed, I wanted to run away..."

"Really, I just wanted to escape; I never intended to back out."

"I was just confused for a moment, it's my first time making a mistake, please give me a chance."

"Fine, I'll let you punish me!"

As she spoke, Tsunade tightly hugged Uchiha Gen's hand to her chest, her voice even sounding slightly like she was about to cry, indicating that she was truly frightened.
