Naruto: Traveling Through Time Starting with Seizing the Dragon Vein

"Tetsuya, your leg..."

After Kenshiro finished fetching water, he turned around, his gaze inadvertently falling on Tetsuya's empty left trouser leg. His lips twitched slightly, and he lowered his voice:

Did you sleep well last night?

This seemingly ordinary greeting struck Tetsuya's mind like a thunderbolt.

He suddenly looked up and met Kenjiro's eyes.

In that instant, a flash of red light from the Sharingan appeared in Kenshiro's cloudy old eyes!

Not only him, but several other commoners around him who had been unable to open their eyes due to a lack of talent were now deliberately suppressing the eye power that had been newly generated within them due to the intense fluctuations in their emotions!

The Uchiha clan is a clan that loves deeply and hates intensely.

Despair can open their eyes, and so can extreme longing and hope!

"Peace and stability."

Tie also took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing his wildly beating heart: "I had a dream... a dream with very tall buildings."

"Clap."

Yumi suddenly turned her head and said:

"I also had a dream... a dream with thousands of lights shining in every home..."

No need to say another word.

Everyone present exchanged a very subtle glance at that moment.

They are Uchiha, ninjas born with the ability to see through things.

By piecing together clues, along with similar dreams, the supplies that suddenly appeared outside the door, and the mysterious badge bearing the family mark, they were able to quickly piece together the truth!

Some members of the clan wanted to challenge the clan leader and the council of elders.

Just then, a series of orderly footsteps came from the end of the street.

"Hurry up! Lord Madara has given the order that there will be a mission in the next few weeks, and he will lead the clansmen there... You logistics people need to sharpen your kunai! Don't mess things up!" the leading Uchiha ninja shouted.

For an instant.

The atmosphere around the well returned to its lifeless state.

Everyone returned to their usual selves, still numb and silent, but no one chose to report them.

But in their dim eyes, a glimmer of hope shone through.

Chapter 67 The Preacher

Seeing that no one chose to report it, Uchiha Tsuki's shadow clone, who had been watching from a distance, breathed a sigh of relief and dispersed the Kyoka Suigetsu, which was ready to be activated at any moment.

The best outcome right now is that no one reports it.

This attempt has a low probability of failure and a high probability of success.

Clearly, he won his gamble.

Once someone in dire straits grasps onto that thread called "hope," they will absolutely never let go.

……

Hidden deep within a natural cave amidst wind and snow.

"Uh……"

Uchiha Hikaru suddenly collapsed onto the stone bed, clutching his eyes in pain. The purple rhombus mark between his brows, which had originally emitted a faint glow, was now so dim that it was almost invisible.

"Light, don't move."

Yue strode forward, her hands glowing with gentle Yin Release chakra, and lightly covered her eyes.

The original plan was for the Moon to simply let the Light test the waters, to see how many people the Light could currently handle and how long it could maintain an unloaded "local area network".

Because in the underlying logic of the "Eight Thousand Spears" technique, the consumption of chakra is never an issue.

This domineering eye technique can draw chakra from the linked user through inscription to maintain the network's operation.

The real difficulty lies in the "disharmony of spirit and will".

Chakra possesses a will, however rare it may be.

Simply put, the brain of light is like a main server.

On the battlefield, sending a short command such as "kill" or "commit suicide" to dozens or even hundreds of people simultaneously is a piece of cake for this server.

This is because the requirement is extremely simple and is purely a one-way "data output".

In this scenario, even with a high number of concurrent requests, it will not place a substantial burden on the light brain.

But things are different now.

In an instant, she forcibly pulled thirty living people with independent thoughts into a highly realistic dream!

The shock, fervor, longing, and even extreme indignation towards reality experienced by these thirty ordinary people witnessing the "Peaceful Paradise"...

These extremely chaotic and massive emotional fluctuations and subconscious thoughts will rush back into the brain of light instantly through the mental network of the eight thousand spears, with hundreds or thousands of times more redundant information!

This kind of information overload at the soul level is just like a "DDoS attack" that goes indiscriminately.

The pressure on a server is vastly different between one-way command output and two-way emotional data processing.

This is why Yue didn't dare let Guang loosen the restrictions, fearing that Guang's brain would be burned out in an instant.

The original plan was for the light to sever the link the moment it sensed this mental tearing.

But the stubborn light refused to give up so easily.

For the past decade or so, she has been used as the "ultimate weapon," and her sole purpose in existence has been killing.

This was the first time in her life that she used these cursed eyes to create "beauty" and give "hope" to others.

She was too attached to the warm emotions called "happiness and gratitude" that the lower-class people fed her in her dreams.

"You silly girl, have you forgotten how to cry out in pain?"

Yue sensed that her nerves were taut to the point of breaking, so she increased the flow of chakra, her tone filled with undisguised reproach.

Guang flinched slightly in pain, but did not flinch away.

"I'm fine... Yue."

“I saw it… in my dream, when they looked at that steel city, there was no fear, no despair.”

Guang's voice was very soft: "I can feel that warm emotion coming from their spiritual world. It's so nice, so warm. I like it so much, just like when the moon came into my world."

After saying that, Guang immediately fainted.

"Go to sleep."

Yue said softly, placing a warm towel on her eyes.

"Since the load on the 'central server' is too heavy, let's change our approach and use a 'decentralized' fission model."

“A single spark can start a prairie fire. These thirty people who have seen ‘heaven’ and personally enjoyed the material benefits are the best preachers.”

"Furthermore, the Shadow Clones learned that Madara Uchiha would be going out on a mission, so the risk would be too high and the efficiency would be faster."

In the following weeks, Uchiha Yue completely changed his strategy.

Instead of forcibly activating the large-scale "dream network" with light, he developed those thirty lower-level tribesmen into the first batch of "underground bishops".

The local area network served as a weekly meeting, where these bishops would enter and be assigned various missionary tasks.

Tetsuya, Yumi, Kenjiro...

These ordinary people and cruel perpetrators, who were reborn from despair, erupted with a fanaticism that even months later was alarming.

During the day, they still maintained that numb, submissive, and miserable appearance;

But when night falls, they transform into the most secretive ghosts, carrying the bag of fine rice and medicine that Yue had secretly stored at the handover point, and knock on the wooden doors of their fellow countrymen who were also on the verge of despair.

The amount of rice and medicine distributed to each lower-level worker was small, mainly due to the risk of exposure, but it was enough.

A beautiful dream about peace, and a real gift of rice and a miracle drug stuffed into his hands.

This is enough to shatter the psychological defenses of any low-ranking Uchiha struggling in the cold winter and war.

Distributing eggs as a form of evangelism is still too advanced for this era or even the world.

Thirty people, fifty people, one hundred people...

In just three weeks, this belief called "peace" spread like a silent storm at an extremely terrifying speed on the outskirts of the Uchiha settlement!

By the end of the third week, the number of "believers" recruited had quietly surpassed two hundred!

This accounts for almost one-third of all Uchiha lower-level ninjas and civilians!

Originally, if things had gone according to plan, Yue could have perfectly orchestrated the overall trend.

He accurately predicted Madara Uchiha's personality.

Ban is an extremely proud person.

So proud of himself as the head of the Uchiha clan, he unconsciously felt responsible for the entire Uchiha clan.

As long as Madara hasn't severed ties with the Uchiha clan, he has the confidence to face this ninja world's demon through these clan members.

In just a few more days, they will be able to take over the vast majority of the Uchiha clan...

However, Yue underestimated the sharpness and decisiveness of the man standing at the pinnacle of the ninja world.

He noticed something amiss as soon as he returned from his mission.

With a population of two hundred, the sheer number of people involved in the Warring States period, a time when the total population was not large, caused a wave of collective emotion and a change in chakra aura that was as dazzling as a torch in the dark!

In particular, the chakra of the Uchiha clan is highly bound to mental power.

This distorted collective spiritual magnetic field, which could be described as incongruous, could not be hidden from the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan, which was capable of seeing through all things in the universe.

……

It was only the fourth week, the first day after Madara Uchiha returned from his mission.

In a secluded cedar forest a few miles from the Uchiha settlement.
