Naruto: Traveling Through Time Starting with Seizing the Dragon Vein

The reason was that he found the code seemed unsafe to test.

He had just tried to construct these functions in the void using his Yin-style escape technique, but found that he couldn't construct them no matter what he tried.

After thinking for a moment, Yue roughly guessed the reason.

hardware.

According to his speculation, even powerful beings like Indra, Asura, or even the Sage of Six Paths would likely find it difficult to influence the present world without the necessary hardware.

The Sage of Six Paths' influence on Naruto and Sasuke was more like activating their reincarnated chakra, and its impact on the present world was extremely rare.

This is a difficult problem. Do we have to use our own "dedicated hardware" to conduct experiments and tests?

What if I break it?

Seeing this, Hikaru stopped in his tracks, somewhat nervously: "Tsuki... what's wrong?"

"No, the logic of the 'software' is perfect; there are no bugs whatsoever."

Yue scratched her hair in frustration, pointed to her eyes, and said with a wry smile, "The problem is with the 'hardware'."

"hardware?"

"That's right, the Mangekyou Sharingan, that's the hardware."

Yue let out a long sigh, her tone filled with a deep sense of helplessness.

"The Mangekyou Sharingan, at the moment of awakening, is already a 'packaged' closed system. The 'innate eye techniques' generated based on our subconscious obsessions within it are essentially a jumbled mess of 'shit-mountain code' without any annotations."

"Now that I have the 'function' I want, I find that... I don't have enough 'testing environment' to run it."

"If I forcibly inscribe this foreign composite pupil power operation formula (Eight Thousand Spears + Spring of Return to Light + Seal of Light) into my or your Kaleidoscope optic nerve, it would be equivalent to forcibly inserting a new plugin with the highest privileges into an old system full of bugs."

"There's only a 99% chance the result is a serious conflict in the underlying code!"

Guang couldn't understand Yue's words at all, but now she knew how to flatter.

What will happen in a conflict? Will anyone get hurt?

"It's more serious than an injury; it could cause my Kaleidoscope system to crash completely, rendering my original 'Heavenly Lord' and 'Eightfold Universe' completely ineffective."

In layman's terms, it means that as long as the program can run, that's enough; any change could have immeasurable consequences.

Guang used her little brain: "But Yue, don't you have the 'Eight Meanings Fusion'? Can't you use it to forcibly increase the probability of successful fusion to one hundred percent?"

"I've also thought about this shortcut."

Yue shook her head helplessly: "However, this involves an extremely fatal logical paradox."

"What I want to modify is the very carrier that produces the 'Eight Meanings Combined'. After the change, it is unknown whether the Eight Meanings Combined will still be called the 'Eight Meanings Combined' when it is used."

"The best approach is to find a new piece of hardware to test on, remove the software from the existing hardware, back up our system, and then try to achieve compatibility once the test is successful."

At this point, the man he had fought during the late Warring States period suddenly flashed through Uchiha Yue's mind.

Madara Uchiha.

How did he handle this "hardware and software" relationship?

Back in the tent, Madara scoffed at the so-called "exclusive eye technique".

Yue squinted, and a plausible hypothesis quickly took shape in his mind:

Madara probably wiped out all the "exclusive software" in his Mangekyou Sharingan!

He proactively formatted the system, deleting those messy, redundant functions that could even slow down the system.

When he needs to use his pupil technique, he relies entirely on his Yin Escape skills to temporarily construct the simplest, most useful, and most efficient function logic!

Then it is released through "external hardware".

Simplify.

Perhaps it was because he eliminated all the system's burdens and concentrated all his eye power on one point that he created his unparalleled Complete Body Susanoo!

Furthermore, the external hardware may not be limited to the Mangekyou Sharingan.

During the Fourth Shinobi World War, Madara, whose body was reshaped by Rinne Rebirth, was able to use Susanoo even while completely blind.

Aside from the Mangekyou Sharingan, which is considered "native hardware," only Hashirama cells can reach this level.

However, he has not yet studied Hashirama cells, and even if he did, it would take a long time, since it involves the Six Paths (Ashura) level, and his eye power is simply not enough.

Therefore, the best solution is...

"Light, we need to get some hardware, and the only hardware we can get right now is the Mangekyou Sharingan."

Chapter 84 The Land of Wind Resumes its Battle

When the Mangekyou Sharingan is mentioned, Uchiha Yue involuntarily recalls the five Mangekyou Sharingan users who were trapped in a genjutsu cycle forever by Chizanami in the basement of the Uchiha clan's ancestral shrine at the end of the Warring States period.

A total of five pairs of Mangekyou Sharingan!

That was an enormous and incredibly tempting top-tier "hardware asset".

When he first traveled to the Warring States period, he had not yet fully verified the laws of the corrective force, and at that time, his left eye, which possessed the power of Yashinaga, was already blind.

Therefore, he acted with extreme caution at the time, trying to change the plot as little as possible.

This is the fundamental reason why, even though he was extremely envious, he didn't try to pry off those five pairs of eyes.

After all, those five pairs of Mangekyou Sharingan could be considered the core foundation that allowed the Uchiha clan to intimidate the outside world at that time.

Given the situation at the time, with the Uchiha clan facing enemies worldwide and the Senju and other clans eyeing them covetously, the Uchiha might have been wiped out on the spot if they had lost this ultimate deterrent.

If the Uchiha clan were to perish, Madara Uchiha's fate, the establishment of Konoha, and even the very foundation of the entire ninja world would suffer an irreversible collapse.

Before verifying the rules of the corrective force, he dared not gamble on whether the corrective force would take action.

Now, Rule Two, the Independent Law of Time-Space Detection, has been perfectly verified by him using the Minato Namikaze couple.

He gained the ability to exploit bugs at will and even smuggle people out of the country.

But the river of time flows ever onward, and he can never return to that specific period before the Warring States period.

Those five kaleidoscopes he missed became his unattainable "white moonlight."

But he didn't regret it for long.

Given his current strength, obtaining a pair of kaleidoscopes in the main timeline wouldn't be too difficult.

Kakashi, Fugaku, Obito... and if he wanted, he could even use the Dragon Vein to travel to other points in time during the Warring States period to "purchase" from the Uchiha clan again; there were still countless ways to do so.

Among them, the simplest and most easily attainable targets are Kakashi and Fugaku Uchiha.

Although forcibly taking their eyes would inevitably cause a dramatic deviation from the Konoha "plot," like a butterfly flapping its wings.

But things are different now; his "Divine Will Project" has been officially launched.

Minato Namikaze and Kushina Uzumaki, two of the most elite hidden agents, have already been planted by Orochimaru into Naruto's protective network.

More and more pieces will be added to the storyline in the future.

With them backing him up, even if he messes up the plot to a mess, he only needs to go with the flow and forcefully bring the "ending" back onto the track that the corrective power needs.

That's exactly what the Divine Will Project is all about.

Now that we've decided on the approach, it's time to start 'procuring' the goods.

However, just as he was preparing to further refine the "hardware recycling plan" for Konoha.

"jingle!"

The doorbell rang at the core laboratory.

The heavy metal door was suddenly pushed open with the clanging of mechanical gears.

Sarah, dressed in a smart, dark red Queen's military uniform, strode in. Her face, which usually wore an elegant smile, was now covered with a layer of frost.

"Lord Yue, something has happened."

Sarah walked to the lab bench and handed over an intelligence scroll that was covered in a little yellow sand.

"Our trade routes with the major oasis powers of the Wind Kingdom have been subjected to five devastating attacks in the past three days. The entire escort of our caravans was wiped out, and the compressed water resources and high-precision water pumps we were transporting were looted."

"In the months that Lord Yue was away, although there were some incidents, they could be resolved by paying some money. It is absolutely unprecedented for a caravan to be wiped out like this."

"Ninja?" Yue frowned.

"Yes, Lord Yue, they are ninjas. Judging from the traces of their ninjutsu, we can't tell which village they are from."

"Can't tell which village's ninja he is?"

Uchiha Yue took the intelligence scroll handed to him by Sara and quickly scanned the on-site investigation report recorded on it.

There were no traces of the kunai's distinctive design, no signs of any escape technique damage, and even the attacker's footprints and chakra remnants had been completely cleaned up.

This behavioral pattern reminded him of the roots of Konoha.

Prioritize eliminating unimportant characters to force important characters to act, and then gather intelligence.

Could it be them?

Of course, the tragic attack on the caravan also exposed a fatal problem currently facing Loulan.

A huge gap in both lower-ranking and mid-level ninjas.

With him and Hikaru at the top level, Minato Namikaze and Kushina might also join this structure in the future.

Four Kage-level or even Super Kage-level fighters—this high-end configuration is absolutely phenomenal in the entire ninja world.

However, if the task is merely to protect caravans, using these people would be a waste of their talents.

They are definitely not lacking in combat strength.

However, if it's just for routine tasks like protecting caravans and patrolling the border, using these humanoid nuclear bombs would be a huge waste of their talents and completely impractical.

Therefore, the training of rank-and-file ninjas and mid-level ninjas must be put on the agenda immediately.

Business and trade...

Or to put it another way, developing productivity is crucial to his grand future plans.

In the parallel architecture concept of [Ming Seal], he needs to establish a massive "cloud chakra network".

The number of "batteries" in this network in the future will directly depend on the population of the ninja world, especially the population base of ninjas!
