From Hokage to Visionary

"Don't be so reserved. Sit down."

Uchiha Sogetsu's body was shrouded in a hazy blur. He raised his hand and pressed it lightly, his tone was very casual.

After sitting down, the two didn't know what to say and fell into silence.

Orochimaru was the first to break the silence: "Mr. Adam, is there anything you want us to do this time?"

"The ninja world has been at peace for too long."

Uchiha Sogetsu tapped the tabletop lightly with his index finger and smiled meaningfully: "Some people seem to be unable to sit still any longer."

Hearing this, the silent Hatake Sakumo's expression changed slightly: "Do you mean that the Ninja World War is about to start again?!"

"Haha, what's so strange about this? White Fang, you are still so naive." Orochimaru sneered and said, "The resources of the major ninja villages are limited, and Konoha alone occupies the most fertile land. Since the death of the Second Hokage, other ninja villages have been ready to move."

“I am more curious about the upcoming war than the war itself.”

After that, he paused for a moment, avoiding looking directly at the man in the high-backed chair, with a hint of awe in his eyes: "From your tone, Mr. Adam, it seems that this war is not that simple, right?"

"There are always some people who like to hide in the dark, right?"

Uchiha Munetsuki stopped tapping his fingers and slowly leaned back in his chair: "Originally, I didn't intend to intervene, but those people wanted to hinder the will of the 'master', which is not allowed."

"It just so happens that my research has come to a standstill recently."

Orochimaru narrowed his eyes slightly, licked his lips, and a dangerous light flashed in his eyes: "Going out for a walk seems to be a good choice. Maybe I can find new inspiration."

"It's not appropriate for you to show up in public for this matter."

Uchiha Sogetsu had his own thoughts and said calmly: "Those people are very timid. If you go, they will only hide deeper."

"I'll go, Mr. Adam."

At this time, Hatake Sayun spoke up and said, "In everyone's eyes, I am a dead man, and dead people will not be noticed."

"Well, then I'll leave it to you, Sakumo." Uchiha Sogetsu said, and then looked at Orochimaru: "Orochimaru, I need you to do another thing."

"Mr. Adam, please go ahead."

Orochimaru bowed his head respectfully, knowing that this was a test for him, and said solemnly: "No matter what the mission is, I will do my best to complete it."

Just one Black Zetsu cell allowed him to see the 'future'.

That extraordinary vitality is similar to that of primary cells, but not completely similar. It is even a little bit unlike humans. It is a pure collection of Yin Dun energy!

After an in-depth study of Black Zetsu's cells, a horrifying guess emerged in Orochimaru's mind.

Although he was still not sure, it made him more determined to follow the Dusk Hermit Order.

"Oh, don't be so serious. It's a very simple thing for you."

Uchiha Sogetsu said calmly, "Go and collect as many Byakugan as you can, within your ability."

"Byakugan?" This request surprised Orochimaru a little: "Excuse me, Mr. Adam, although they are known as the two major bloodline limits of Konoha, compared with the first generation cells and Sharingan, I don't think the importance of Byakugan can be compared with the former two."

Hatake Sakumo, who was standing by, also nodded in agreement.

Indeed, in the bloodline limits passed down in Konoha, although the Byakugan and the Sharingan are equally famous, those who truly understand them know that the two are by no means the same.

Perhaps when the Sharingan is below three magatama, the Byakugan can still have an advantage, but once the Sharingan awakens the Mangekyō, the difference between the two is almost like heaven and earth.

"You guys are a little too dismissive."

Uchiha Sogetsu, who had already anticipated their reaction, chuckled and dropped a bombshell: "The Byakugan and Sharingan both come from the bloodline of the immortal."

"Immortal Immortal?!"

Orochimaru and Hatake Sasuke's pupils trembled, shocked by the news: "You mean, the Six Paths Sage? Did he actually exist?"

Uchiha Sogetsu smiled but said nothing.

However, this attitude without any denial undoubtedly confirmed their guess, causing the two of them to gasp in unison.

“The myth is actually true”

Compared to Hatake Sakumo's shock, Orochimaru had guessed it before, so he was more excited.

For a scientist, what could be more fascinating than the unknown?

"Since the Sharingan can turn into a 'Kaleidoscope', then the Byakugan..." Orochimaru felt trembling all over just thinking about it, but it was not fear, but the excitement of exploring the unknown and uncovering the secret with his own hands: "I understand, Mr. Adam, I will study it carefully."

Seeing Orochimaru licking his lips, Hatake Sakumo's eyes twitched, as if he had foreseen the tragic future of the Hyuga clan.

Forget it, it’s miserable, what does it have to do with a dead man like him?

"Okay, let's stop here for today."

Sensing someone approaching, Uchiha Sogetsu decisively chose to end it, glanced at White Fang and said: "After that, I will tell you what the person you need to find looks like."

It was sunny on March 12.

Oh yeah, I finally rested. I feel like I'm in the grave. Please support me during the new book period. Thank you! (I didn't win the scratch card again, damn, I won't buy it next week!)

Chapter 21: The Nameless Uchiha Sealed by the Uchiha

The next day.

As expected, Tsunade lost everything.

Uchiha Munetsuki had no choice but to advance the money for the shopping and asked Tsunade to sign an 'IOU' and return it to him after returning.

However, considering Tsunade's personality, the possibility of her paying back the money is very slim.

The two dressed up again. Uchiha Sogetsu wore a white shirt, black hair, sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, and was a handsome boy. Tsunade also changed her clothes, a white tube top shirt, a dark blue outer robe, loose wide-leg pants, and her long golden hair tied into two ponytails.

In order to avoid being recognized, he also used transformation.

From an outsider's perspective, they looked like a pair of siblings on a trip, not like ninjas at all.

Following the instructions on the scroll, they finally arrived at the forest near dusk.

Uchiha Sogetsu stood on the edge of the cliff and looked out. In the bottom of a giant basin with a diameter of tens of kilometers was a primeval forest. Towering ancient trees rose from the ground, growing in an almost barbaric way, with lush branches and leaves intertwined, forming a vast green field like a dome.

“I never thought that one day I would come back here again.”

Facing the night breeze, Tsunade's eyes were filled with memories and sadness.

"Have you been here before?"

Uchiha Sogetsu asked.

"Well, it is."

Tsunade seemed unwilling to explain and jumped off the cliff.

"Okay." Uchiha Sogetsu shrugged and jumped down immediately after him.

When I entered this primeval forest, I was shocked the moment my feet touched the ground.

"What an amazing life energy!"

Uchiha Sogetsu said in surprise.

The extremely vigorous life energy is constantly overflowing.

It is like a vigorous and powerful heart, which releases amazing life energy with every powerful burst. Then, like the blood in the blood vessels, it is transported along the veins of the land to every corner of the forest, providing nutrition to this primeval forest.

No wonder the vegetation and trees here can grow so huge.

But with such vigorous life energy, this place is a bit weird. Uchiha Sogetsu seemed to be thinking about something, his eyes fixed on Tsunade's back in front of him.

"Let's go quickly."

Noticing that the people behind her didn't catch up, Tsunade stopped where she was without looking back: "Don't ask, I don't want to talk now. When we get to the sealing location, you will know the reason."

At this moment, her etheric body aura took on a dark blue color, symbolizing melancholy and containing a strong sense of sadness.

If he continued to ask, he would probably get punched. Uchiha Sogetsu temporarily suppressed his doubts and followed Tsunade to continue walking deeper.

As the two went deeper, the vegetation and trees became sparse.

Instead, there are raised mounds of earth, with neither names nor tombstones.

Looking around, there are at least hundreds of such mounds, and the people buried in them are sleeping silently in the deepest part of this primeval forest.

The life energy that sustains the entire primeval forest comes from those tombs.

It was at this time that Uchiha Sogetsu finally understood.

Why does this place make Tsunade sad and unwilling to explain?

His eyes passed over the raised tombs, and in silent silence, he saw the family crest carved on a cave on the mountain wall.

The two swirling sunflower patterns look like the spreading branches of a tree.

"The family crest of the Senju clan of the forest"

After seeing the family emblem, Uchiha Sogetsu understood everything instantly.

No wonder the life energy in this forest is so rich. With so many people from the Thousand Hands Clan buried here, how could it not be vigorous?

"Sorry, I'm in a bad mood every time I come here." Tsunade lowered her eyes, her long eyelashes trembling, and she bit her lips lightly, immersed in the sad atmosphere.

The people buried here were once her elders.

Her great grandfather, second grandfather, uncles and aunts who loved her, and even her beloved younger brother.

"Lady Tsunade, do you need treatment?" Uchiha Sogetsu pushed his glasses and asked in a gentle tone.

"No need, it's all in the past."

Tsunade took a deep breath, put her hands on her hips, and acted as if she didn't care: "Besides, kid, do I look like such a weak woman?"

"Hmm, it doesn't look like that."

This is not flattery, Uchiha Sogetsu thinks so from the bottom of his heart.

After all, a woman who had lost her family, elders, relatives, and lover one after another, but was still able to stubbornly become a Sannin, this alone was enough to prove how strong she was.

"So you can say nice things. I thought you could only make me angry." Tsunade was a little surprised. Her depressed mood disappeared. She glanced at him with a charming smile. She was charming and exuded the charm of a mature woman. "Let's go, kid. That's the seal location."

The candles on the wall automatically lit up as someone stepped in, illuminating the cave.

With the help of the light, Uchiha Sogetsu saw that there was a building similar to an altar inside, surrounded by the pattern of the Eight Trigrams seal.

"Huh, the seal seems to be fine."

Tsunade took a quick look, breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and said jokingly: "Come to think of it, the person sealed inside is somewhat related to you."

"Does it have anything to do with me?" Uchiha Sogetsu frowned.

"Do you know who is sealed in the forbidden area of ​​the Senju clan?" Tsunade looked at the boy with a smile, her red lips curled up in a sexy arc.

"Could it be someone from the Uchiha clan?" Uchiha Sogetsu asked.

He could not think of any other possibility except the Uchiha clan, as he was related to him and was sealed in the forbidden area of ​​the Senju clan.

"Hahaha~ You're pretty smart, kid." Tsunade chuckled, confirming his answer: "The person sealed in here, I've heard my great grandfather mention him, he's a member of the Uchiha family, it's said he helped the Uchiha clan win many battles in the past."

"So it was sealed by the Senju clan?"

Uchiha Sogetsu asked.

"No, you're wrong, kid."

Hearing this, Tsunade shook her head and said in a low voice: "This person was sealed by the Uchiha clan. After the establishment of Konoha, they took the initiative to hand him over to the Senju clan, and proposed to use the Uzumaki clan's sealing technique to seal this person forever."

"Sealed by the Uchiha clan?"

Uchiha Munetsuki was a little confused for a moment, his eyes full of confusion: "Since he helped Uchiha achieve so many victories, why was he sealed? And he was specially handed over to the Senju and Uzumaki clans, it feels like..."

"You're afraid of that man's power, right?"

Tsunade continued with the second half of the sentence, staring at the altar, with a hint of doubt in her eyes: "Actually, I can't be sure, because when I was a child, I asked my great-grandfather, but he said it was nothing, that person was just a little troublesome."

Haha, this sounds like something the first generation would say. Uchiha Sogetsu's mouth twitched. He conquered the world with just his wood escape technique, who is he afraid of?

When you are in doubt, just look up to your head; when you clap your hands, whatever you shout will come true.

The Nine-Tailed Fox is like a little chicken in other people's hands, let alone a mere Uchiha?

It’s not like you haven’t beaten him before, right, Uchiha Madara?

"Since the seal is complete, can we leave now?" Uchiha Sogetsu said. After all, there are still a dozen or so behind them.
