Chapter 103: Playing Xu Xian

"Sigh!"

"I also want to kick him out of the higher-ups to stop him from causing trouble."

"But Danzo controls the Root division. If we act too forcefully, it will definitely lead to bloodshed."

"And that's something I don't want to see."

The Third Hokage sighed and shook his head.

"Forget it, I don't want to know about these things."

"I have other matters to attend to, so I'll be leaving."

Tsunade stood up.

Chapter 102: The Countdown to Kushina's Resurrection

Seeing Kurama really transform into the form of Ahri, Shishou maintained a calm exterior, but inside, he was laughing hysterically.

"Oh, Kurama, I never thought I'd see the day!" he thought to himself.

Clearing his throat, Shishou addressed KD Ahri Kurama with a serious expression, "Now, I need to start searching for Kushina. However, I'll need your assistance."

KD Ahri Kurama, lying on the ground and adjusting to the human form, replied in Ahri's voice, "What do you need me...

Chapter 101: KD Ahri Kurama

In Naruto's subconscious.

“Hey, Kurama, long time no see,” Shishou said, stepping into the watery expanse of Naruto's mind. He strolled up to the large iron bars that imprisoned the Nine-Tails and gave them a light kick.

Due to the constant ANBU surveillance around Naruto, Shishou hadn’t found an opportunity to enter this space until now. Finally, here he was, ready to have some fun with the tsundere fox.

“You troublesome Uchiha brat, what do you want this tim...

Chapter 100: The Second-Generation Shinobi Circle

“Lord Third Hokage, even if Kurenai Yuhi is unavailable, surely you could have sent a chunin proficient in genjutsu to instruct him,” said an ANBU squad leader, puzzled as he approached the Third Hokage after Shishou left.

The Third Hokage sighed, waving his hand dismissively. "These are minor matters, not worth fretting over."

Watching his leader’s retreating figure, the squad leader still couldn’t understand why the Hokage had lowered himself so much. However, t...

Chapter 99: Where’s My Beautiful Instructor?

"Lord Third Hokage, since I’ve provided you with information about the Akatsuki, can we now proceed with my genjutsu training?" Shishou said with a smile, addressing the Third Hokage after he finished examining the pictures.

Uncertain about the fate of Zabuza Momochi, Shishou only provided information on Uchiha Itachi this time.

"Of course, Mr. Lurigan, but perhaps you could rest today, and I will arrange for a genjutsu instructor to meet you tomorrow?" The Third Hokage...

Chapter 98: At Least Worth an Oscar!

“Great Goddess of Wisdom,”

“I hope you can bless me with a special evolution!”

“Yes, Eris’s chest is padded...”

Shishou played with a joke, then began the evolution of his Phosphorus Bad Bugs.

【Phosphorus Bad Bug, Epic Insect Species, Six Evolutions Complete, Ready for Evolution】

Chapter 97: A Simple Exchange

“Bakayarou, konoyarou, how dare you trespass into Kumogakure? State your name!”

The Eight-Tails Jinchuriki Killer B rapped bizarrely, pointing both hands at Shishou.

Watching Killer B’s antics, Shishou’s mouth twitched. This guy’s rap skills probably hadn’t improved much in the past two and a half years...

Terrible!

“Bakayarou, konoyarou, you’re no fun!”

Seeing that Shishou didn’t respond, Killer B stopped messing around. He threw seven swords...

Chapter 96: Come On, Yugito Nii, Say "Meow"!

Hearing Shishou's teasing words, Yugito Nii struggled to lift her hand, trying to strike Shishou. However, in her weakened state, her movements resembled a kitten's feeble swipes.

“I’ll kill you!”

Never before had she been defeated so thoroughly. The fact that she couldn’t last even one round against him was a blow to her pride. As a Jinchūriki, she had always been powerful, and this humiliation was unbearable.

Even a powerful Jinchūriki like Yugito can’t last lo...

Chapter 95: The First Encounter with Yugito

Inside Turtle Island.

After entering the barrier using the Kumogakure Jōnin, Shishou tossed him aside. While the chakra from one Jōnin could match that of a giant beast when devoured by his Phosphorus Bad Bugs, Shishou had no habit of wanton killing. He despised massacring the innocent, even if it would rapidly enhance his Phosphorus Bad Bugs and his own strength. As he put it:

"It would lower my style!"

An hour later.

“Hmm, just a few more left.”

Having ne...

Chapter 94: Sharp Tongue, Stronger Fists

Time flowed like water.

Soon, it was November of the 59th year of Konoha.

The ninja academy in Konoha had already started winter break, giving Shishou, who had adapted to sage energy, ample time to do what he wanted.

Land of Lightning.

Near the coast.

After offering another five million ryō bounty, bounty hunters in the ninja black market kidnapped a Jōnin from Kumogakure and found the location of Turtle Island.

“There it is!”

On the back of a b...

Chapter 93: Extracting Sage Energy

“Hiss~”

Feeling the pinch on his waist, Shishou winced in pain but didn’t resist.

He hadn’t expected Ino and Hinata to lie for his sake.

Despite the confusion, Shishou was very touched by their goodwill.

“Ino, you’re pinching too hard.”

Hinata, seeing Shishou’s expression, quickly pulled Ino’s hand away from his waist.

“Are you here to talk?”

On the podium, Iruka yelled at the trio’s actions.

The three of them quickly sto...

Chapter 92: It's All Your Fault!

Chapter 92: It’s All Your Fault!

Boom!

The fireball hit the large tree, causing a slight explosion.

Clearly, despite her anger, Pakura knew her limits.

“Stop it.”

Uchiha Mikoto came out of the room and pulled Pakura away.

Seeing that Pakura dared to attack, Shishou’s anger flared instantly.

New grudges combined with old ones, making Shishou act recklessly. He used the Flying Thunder God technique to appear behind Pakura, gave her a pinch, and ...

Chapter 91: Moonlight, Oh Moonlight

Shishou raised an eyebrow as Orochimaru appeared before him. He hadn't expected his theory to be correct. Orochimaru, when implanting a curse mark on a target, also injected fragments of his soul and his cells into the target’s body. The purpose was to leave a backup for his resurrection.

During the Fourth Great Ninja War, Sasuke had resurrected Orochimaru using Kabuto’s cells and the curse mark on Anko. Based on this, Shishou had formed his hypothesis. He believed that Kab...

Chapter 90: Ah, Who Stepped on My Tail!

At two in the morning.

Anko lay in bed, pretending to sleep, while sneaking a glance at Yugao Uzuki, who was diligently watching over her.

"So diligent!" she thought sarcastically, noticing Yugao was engrossed in reading a ninjutsu scroll.

Anko closed her eyes again, entering a state of fake sleep. This technique, taught by Orochimaru, allowed her to rest while ensuring she would wake up at a precise time.

At three in the morning.

Anko awoke from her fake sleep t...

Chapter 89: Taking Stock of the Harvest

“If you don’t agree, I’ll make things even worse for you,” Shishou threatened.

“I-I agree, okay?” Anko replied weakly, her voice trembling. She was genuinely terrified of Shishou. After being tied up for the entire afternoon, she urgently needed to use the restroom. If Shishou continued to torment her, she would lose control.

Desperation drove her to agree to anything he demanded, hoping to find a chance to escape later. The original purpose of her visit to Sh...

Chapter 88: I Can Spend All Day with You

Afternoon.

Fire Source City Mansion.

After school, Shishou parted ways with Ino and Hinata and returned home. After reverting to his normal size, he immediately came here.

Perhaps because he had absorbed and integrated some of Hashirama's cells and many of Yamato's clones, Shishou's use of the Mangekyou Sharingan caused much less damage to his eyesight now. Using it a few times a month was not a problem.

Just as he stepped out of his room, Shishou saw Anko Mitar...

Chapter 87: You Came Just in Time

Receiving the scrolls from his clone and watching it dispel, Shishou turned to the Third Hokage and said:

"Since the matter is resolved, I'll take my leave now."

"I'll investigate the Akatsuki matter as soon as possible."

With that, Shishou used the Body Flicker Technique to run towards the distant carriage.

After Shishou left, the Third Hokage turned sharply to Danzo:

"When we get back, I need you to explain this to me thoroughly!"

"Hmph!"

T...

Chapter 86: Blackmailing Danzo

Seeing Shishou emerge from the other side of the forest, both the Third Hokage and Danzo were taken aback.

Neither of them had noticed when Shishou had appeared there.

Danzo was especially shocked, realizing that he had just been chasing a clone.

Realizing he had been played by a clone, Danzo's face grew increasingly grim.

After hearing Shishou's words clearly, both Danzo and the Third Hokage felt as if they had fallen into an icy abyss.

Danzo was distre...

Chapter 85: Common Robbery and Murder in the Ninja World

"Oh?"

"Isn't this Sai's secret technique?"

Seeing several ink hawks flying towards him, Shishou became interested and prepared to play with these people.

"Wait! Are you guys from Root?"

"Why are you targeting Mr. Lurigan?"

Suddenly, a figure jumped out from the side, shouting at the ink hawks flying in the air.

It was Anko, who had chased after them overnight to ask Shishou about Orochimaru's whereabouts.

Super Beast Imitating Drawing is a se...

Chapter 84: The Fish Took the Bait!

"Humming a tune~" Anko left the Hokage's office in high spirits, humming a cheerful tune to herself. The shock on the faces of the Hokage and the others had given her a taste of why some people loved to boast—it felt great!

After all, Mr. Lurigan was indeed wealthy, and she had merely exaggerated a bit. With that thought, she continued walking out of the Hokage Tower.

"Uh-oh! I got so carried away boasting that I forgot to tell the Hokage that Mr. Lurigan can disguise h...

Chapter 160: Water Country Rebellion Incident

Konan's words left Nagato deeply contemplative. He understood her sentiments well. When Yahiko was alive, he and Konan always regarded Yahiko's decisions as their own; Yahiko was their guiding light. But after Yahiko's death, only Nagato and Konan remained to support each other. To protect his only remaining friend, Nagato did whatever it took, killing countless people, with Konan unwaveringly supporting him, as she couldn't bear to lose another comrade.

But now things were dif...

Chapter 159: Uchiha Shisui's Other Sharingan

After delegating the tasks for the development of the Land of Sea, Natsuhane carried a fishing rod and basket to a secluded coastal area, where he pretended to fish. In reality, he was waiting for two expected visitors.

By noon, the awaited guests finally arrived.

Uchiha Itachi and Hoshigaki Kisame appeared silently behind Natsuhane. Disguise and infiltration were Itachi’s specialties, and his demeanor and tone made it seem like he was meeting Natsuhane for the first ti...

Chapter 158: Planning the Land of Sea

"Alright, I understand," Natsuhane said, a hint of relief in his voice. He looked at Itachi, who had just warned him about the impending visit from the Akatsuki. "Itachi, when you and Kisame arrive, how should I respond?"

Itachi's spectral form nodded. "Think carefully, Natsuhane. Don't be too hasty to oppose the Akatsuki. I'll do my best to buy you some time with Pain," he said, his form beginning to fade. "I need to go now. Staying too long might alert Kisame."

Before c...

Chapter 157: SSS-Level System Reward

Meanwhile, in the Land of Sea, within the daimyo's residence...

Natsuhane sat alone on his bed. Beside him lay a thoroughly exhausted Uzumaki Honoka, who had already fallen into a deep, sweet sleep. Natsuhane, however, was too excited to sleep.

Just thirty minutes ago, a long-awaited and exhilarating notification echoed in his mind.

[Ding! Uchiha clan member +1, the overall potential rating of this member is SSS. As a special reward, the host gains a new Shari...
