I, Yu Uchiha, am devoted to cultivating immortality

Two basic ninjas, wearing Konoha forehead protectors, mesh tights on the inside, and loose ninja uniforms on the outside, their hands and legs are covered with bandages.

They walked up to Uchiha Yuu with smiles on their faces, but the smile was uglier than crying. Except for the curved eyes and eyebrows and the raised corners of the mouth, it could be said that not a single muscle was smiling.

The abnormal smile triggers the uncanny valley effect, causing strong feelings of weirdness, terror and nausea.

In comparison, the smile of the root ninja Sai more than ten years later is pretty good, at least he still looks like a human being.

One of the ninjas raised a scroll, stared at Uchiha Yuu with his eyes tightly, and said with a smile and a dull tone: "Uchiha Yuu Chunin, you have been appointed as the captain of the ninja team, and we are assigned to you. Genin.”

After a pause, as if they thought about it again, the two ninjas bowed together and said in unison: "Please give me your advice."

Uchiha Yu: "..."

Miwa Masashi: "..."

What kind of plan is this? He directly appoints Uchiha Yuu as the captain with a formal order, and then lets the root ninja become his team member as a genin.

It's actually the Overlord who is using his bow forcefully, why should he be so rough?

The behavior of these two ninjas is dull and obscure. Anyone who takes a look at them will know that they are not normal people, let alone normal ninjas.

Moreover, they have abundant chakra in their bodies, as well as strong chakra fluctuations under the bandages on their hands and feet. These are at least jounin-level ninjas. Do they really think they are blind?

In addition, when a chuunin is appointed as the captain, the relevant orders will be conveyed by the genin acting as a team member, so there is no sense of a formal order at all.

Uchiha Yu clapped his hands, and he understood that Shimura Danzo did it on purpose. He blatantly placed Akiko beside him to bully him into not being able to openly resist orders.

Even if he knew there was something wrong with this order, what could he do?

Disobeying orders, this is a real order with a formal record. A ninja who disobeys orders on the front line is an undisputed traitor. Everyone in Konoha will punish him.

The next second order is for the entire battalion to surround and suppress Uchiha Yu.

Following the order, Uchiha Yu could only take two killers who could stab him at any time. Under the command of the second order, he left the camp and headed for the encirclement preset by Root Ninja.

When he dies, the records of these two orders will be destroyed. Uchiha Yuu left the ninja camp for no reason and is suspected of treason.

Therefore, if you die, you will die in vain.

I don’t know if Shimura Danzo deliberately designed it to be disgusting. Anyway, this plan is so crude and touching that anyone who is not a fool can see the problem at a glance.

But this conspiracy has a particularly powerful point. It relies on the power of the Hokage to bully others by pretending to be powerful.

Uchiha Yuu thought about it and found that in the current situation, a certain logical closed loop had been formed, which Uchiha Yuu could not think of a way to solve.

But it is not necessarily true that there is no solution at all. A conspiracy is a conspiracy after all. Once it is revealed, the outcome will be reversed in an instant.

In the final analysis, this is not a conspiracy. It is completely different to be able to openly tell the enemy one's calculations and the enemy has no solution at all.

Thinking of this, Uchiha Yu showed a delighted smile and said to the two pieces of wood: "Haha, this is my first time as captain, you two introduce yourselves."

The number that blurted out was blocked by the tongue bane eradication technique. The two wooden sticks stood stupidly for a full three minutes before slowly speaking.

"I'm Ryota."

"I am Zhi."

Uchiha Yu: "..., you! It turns out you still look down on me!"

Miwa Masashi asked: "Yu, why did you say what's on your mind in front of them, nya?"

Uchiha Yu shook his head and said: "Don't worry, these two pieces of wood are not ninjas at the root. They are weapons at the root. There is no need to worry about anything in front of them..."

"Because... they only obey orders and do not have enough intelligence to distinguish what intelligence is."

Uchiha Yuu's eyes showed a trace of sympathy and a little bit of weak pity. He sighed:

"I was just wondering why Genbu paid so much attention to me and even sent two special jounin to be assassins around me. It turned out to be two weapons that destroyed my intelligence."

Miwa Masato curiously climbed onto the shovel officer's shoulder and observed carefully with a pair of big eyes: "Is this the kind of weapon you came up with during the interrogation after you caught someone last time, nya?"

"Well, let me confirm." Uchiha Yu ordered to the two pieces of wood: "In the name of the team leader, I order you two to stick out your tongues."

The two root ninjas heard the "command" and stuck out their tongues without any hesitation, revealing the cyan and black intertwined seal patterns on their tongues, like tattoos.

Although it was the first time he saw it, Uchiha Yu immediately guessed the function of these seals. He smiled and said: "It should be a tongue-eradicating technique. I didn't expect it to be completed, and there is this mechanical reaction." , it can be confirmed that they are weapons without intelligence."

Uchiha Yu opened his Sharingan and carefully memorized the Tongue Bane Jutsu. This tool was of great reference value for him when he began to learn the sealing technique.

The Tongue Bane Jutsu no Jutsu represents the root. The current highest level of sealing technique research is quite high, and Uchiha Yuu cannot understand it at all for the time being.

These two pieces of wood also represent a certain level of root training subordinates, but the level can definitely be said to be poor. With the feedback of the command, Uchiha Yu easily broke in without even opening the Sharingan or using illusions. their souls.

The mind is the most important core of any intelligent creature. Not to mention humans, even the mind of a cat and a dog can't be penetrated by Yuu Uchiha.

His original intention to launch the attack was his usual routine, which was to first shock the opponent's spiritual world, tear out the gaps and then drop hint seeds, and then repeatedly pull and influence the opponent's mind through suggestions, just like what he did to a group of genin in the early stages of the study meeting. .

Who would have thought that the shock of the first step would break the opponent's mental barrier, and Uchiha Yuu would break in directly.

The moment he broke in, he was shocked. He thought it was some kind of spiritual or illusion trap, just like Uchiha Itachi's kaleidoscope pupil technique Tsukuyomi later, which pulled the enemy into his own spiritual world and imprisoned him, and then used the home field advantage to fully bully him. people.

Just when Uchiha Yuu was panicking and preparing to escape, he saw the spiritual world of the root weapon, which was a fragmented world on the verge of collapse.

Several huge rules manifested into thick iron chains, running through the entire world in random directions, pushing the world to disintegration bit by bit.

At the edge of the cracks in the barrier of the spiritual world, countless fragments of the soul continue to shatter, like autumn leaves fluttering and scattering into the unknown void of the spiritual world.

The minds of these two weapons are being destroyed, and their lives have entered a countdown. Yu Chiha estimates that within three or four months, they will completely lose consciousness and become living dead or vegetative in the true sense.

In this broken and collapsed world, the soul can no longer hide its secrets, and all the information is exposed. Although the defects are very serious, Uchiha Yu quickly understands their origin.

In general, there is no technical content in the manufacture of these two intelligenceless weapons.

Obtain children under the age of four who have ninja talent, use inhumane training, large doses of forbidden drugs that destroy their foundation, and through a lot of damage, they can quickly become ninjas above the chunin level.

Recognize and cherish the roots of these instant ninjas, because their physical foundation is damaged. Not only can they no longer gain strength, but their peak period is only five or six years, and they will soon become weak due to physical disease and premature aging. .

So they used violent means to brainwash them and taught them extremely dangerous forbidden arts. After another round of screening, they were given weapons that were good at killing their enemies together.

These are the most traditional ninja training methods in the ninja world. It is said that in the era when samurai ruled the world, this method was used to train ninjas. The main feature is a method and technique that is inhumane and has no aura at all. The trained ninja has never thought of using it until he is 20 years old.

Obviously, Orochimaru has not yet participated in the basic technological innovation of the root, and the root ninja and humanoid weapons have not yet been integrated into one. The root ninjas in Uchiha Yuu's memory, such as the ninja named Sai, those ninjas with almost zero emotions, but with intact intelligence, sharp reactions, and full strength and growth, have not yet appeared.

After careful observation, he found that there was no more information worthy of attention. Uchiha Yuu was about to leave, but his movements suddenly stiffened.

It wasn't that someone was attacking him, but someone was calling for help.

The idea of ​​asking for help is very weak, intermittent, and flickering, as if A Piao was born in this broken spiritual world, which is terrifying.

Uchiha Yuu was shocked. The cry for help turned out to be the weapon calling himself Ryota, calling for help in the spiritual world.

Then the original owner appeared, revealing an extremely complex body. What made his scalp numb was that it turned out to be a suture monster-like existence.

The life that asks for help contains many different components. The child who was brought into the root at the age of four, the child who trained to become a special jounin at the age of eight, the troll who was born after the personality was destroyed at the age of eleven, and the most complete four-year-old child. As the core, an indescribable monster was formed.

The monster has seven or eight faces, but none of them are complete. Each incomplete face has a painful and twisted expression, with tears streaming down its face. A total of eight eyes, large and small, stared at Uchiha Yuu closely, and five or six noses and mouths opened and closed murmuring.

Such an angry look made Uchiha Yu feel familiar and speechless.

Shimura Danzo is really good. He was able to create a Cthulhu monster in the ninja world. If it weren't for the fact that this thing couldn't be manifested outside the mind, it would definitely cause huge trouble.

This psychic monster is extremely weak, but its anxious breathing and low murmurs are impossible to ignore. Even Uchiha Yu feels a little uneasy now.

Uchiha Yu couldn't help but feel his eyes light up, this thing is very interesting.

Although he has not awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan, his pupil power has already exceeded the standard of the Three Magatama Sharingan, and he is also good at standing still, and his mental toughness is not inferior to that of a real Mangekyō.

Being able to shake Yu Uchiha, this monster's psychic attack power is definitely very impressive. If it gets rid of its weak state, and with his own support behind it, and attacks as a psychic weapon, the power will definitely be satisfying.

There is even a slight possibility that it is not impossible to directly break through the enemy's mental barrier from the front and defeat the enemy with one blow.

Uchiha Yu said happily: "I have decided that from now on your name will be 'Xiao Ke'."

"Xiao Ke will definitely become a great Cthulhu in the future, but you must remember not to grow too deformed."

"Because I hate ugly things. If Xiao Ke becomes disabled, I will not be able to help but kill you."

The monster fixed in the spiritual world of the root living weapon heard Uchiha Yu's words. It definitely couldn't hear it, but it instinctively felt some kind of great terror and couldn't help but tremble.

Uchiha Yu suddenly spoke, and the content of his words was even more confusing, leaving Miwa Masayo on his shoulder confused. With its powerful instinct of inspiration, the civet cat noticed some abnormal signs and couldn't help but look around but found no strange existence.

She scratched the poop scraper with her paw and asked, "Who are you talking to, meow?"

Uchiha Yu pointed at the living weapon and said: "In this guy's mind, I found a very interesting spiritual monster. I just named it Xiao Ke."

"It looks like a scary thing, meow, my tail hair is standing on end!"

"It's a bit scary, but it's still good as a weapon."

"Anyway, stay away from me, meow."

"Okay, okay."

Considering that he couldn't kill the root weapon now, Uchiha Yu suppressed his greed and planted thousands of hint seeds for Xiao Ke in the root weapon's spiritual world.

He fully stimulated and generated a logical chain, tightly bound Xiao Ke into a cocoon, and extended the chain, chaining the entire spiritual world, fixing both Xiao Ke and the world to prevent sudden collapse and loss. This interesting spiritual monster.

After doing all this, Uchiha Yu checked another weapon, but unfortunately could not find the second psychic monster.

This is normal. Although life can always create miracles, miracles must be very rare. Behind every miracle of life are countless corpses that died after struggling and failing.

Uchiha Yuu was already satisfied with being able to get a small gram. After all, it was wool harvested from the root. This kind of trophy-like feeling was still very good.

After thinking about it, he mentally strengthened another self-proclaimed ninja. Doing all this meant that the ownership of the two root weapons changed hands.

The living assassin sent by the root has become his most loyal weapon, Uchiha Yu. In the next conflict, it will definitely give the root ninja a big surprise.

…

Uchiha Yu's expected order was delivered to him a few hours later, requiring him to set out tonight and arrive at a valley in the middle of Yuno Country at five o'clock tomorrow morning to accept the next task there.

The content of the tasks is very ordinary. In order to prevent the confidentiality of tasks with higher confidentiality levels, the five great ninja villages often split tasks, splitting a task into two or even more to ensure that it will not be leaked in the early stages of communication and execution.

Uchiha Yuu did not set out according to the time required by the mission. As soon as he received the mission, he left the camp with two living weapons and Miwa Masashi.

He first hurriedly returned to the Country of Fire in a southwest direction, then traveled northwest along the border between the Country of Fire and the Country of Yu. After a few hours, he entered the Country of Yu again and traveled due north to cross the mission site. , and finally turned back and headed southeast, quietly approaching the mission location.

Setting off early, taking a detour of hundreds of miles, and arriving in the opposite direction is a common anti-tracking technique used by Konoha ninjas.

The root ninja who followed him was also familiar with these routines to his core, and couldn't help but sneered: "Stupid Uchi, you actually used such an old-fashioned technique. If it weren't for preventing accidents, we wouldn't have to go such a long way. "

The root ninja who led the team snorted coldly and scolded: "Shut up, what does it mean to run a few steps? We have to ensure that everything goes smoothly for the mission issued by Danzo-sama himself."

"yes!"

"Follow closely, we can't let this Uchiha leave our sight, but we can't let him discover our existence too early."

"Got it, Captain!"

When the sky in the east turned white, Uchiha Yu had arrived at the mission location two hours in advance. After sending a weapon to scout the inside of the valley, he led the entire team in.

Immediately, the four root ninjas who followed him blocked him, and three root ninjas appeared on both sides of the valley and in front of him, rushing towards Uchiha Yuu silently.

The root ninjas did not express any doubts about Uchiha Yu's early arrival, nor did any root ninjas speak. They even took out a root order, announcing that Uchiha Yuu was an enemy or something.

They rushed down directly and launched the first wave of attacks with shurikens and kunai. Then they pulled out their sharp ninja swords and started fighting in close quarters.

The two living weapons behind Uchiha Yuu also drew out their ninja swords, drawing two bright blades of light in the dark valley, but these two rays of light struck the root ninjas on both sides.

The cold and silent ones, even the root ninjas who were pretending to be cold, had their defenses broken by these two swords, and they all let out exclamations of horror and confusion.

"What?"

"what happened?"

"impossible!"

All root ninjas know that the value of living weapons is to die together. Their bodies always have at least ten detonating charms attached to them, which are active self-explosion bombs.

But the self-destructive weapons that originally belonged to their side rebelled, and the root ninjas all understood how dangerous the situation was. They didn't even care about the mission target, Uchiha Yu. Instead, they left behind those who monitored Uchiha Yu and went all out to besiege him. These two weapons.

If they don't kill these two weapons first, they can open a huge gap in the encirclement at any time, and it will be difficult to stop the target Uchiha Yuu from escaping.

Moreover, the loss of control of the weapon was probably caused by Yuu Uchiha. If the hidden dangers were not eliminated first, the fundamental mission would inevitably fail.
