Sasuke Uchiha felt like he was on a roller coaster today, constantly rising and falling. It was just like life. It seems any bizarre thing can happen. After his initial shock, Sasuke Uchiha could only accept it. However, he didn't change how he addressed Sasame; he still called him "Sensei." Mikoto Uchiha didn't insist either. Or rather, she had no such intention. She didn't dare to reveal her relationship with Sasame. If Sasuke Uchiha called him "Dad," wouldn't everyone know? Mikoto Uchiha couldn't accept such social death just yet. After all, she still cared about the Uchiha clan's reputation.
"Sasuke, you've just awakened your eyes. Take some time to get used to them," Sasame thought for a moment. "Although the Mangekyō Sharingan is incredibly powerful, it has side effects. Excessive use can lead to vision loss, and even blindness." He had to remind him. In the original work, Sasuke Uchiha began to act arrogant everywhere after awakening his eyes, which almost led to a disaster.
"Blindness?" Sasuke Uchiha was clearly hearing this for the first time. He subconsciously showed a confused expression. He put in so much effort to awaken his eyes, and there's such a ridiculous side effect? It feels like a loss.
"Sasuke, your teacher is right. There are related records in the clan's archives," Mikoto Uchiha nodded. "However, as long as you don't overuse the dōjutsu, it's not that dangerous." A look of realization appeared on Sasuke Uchiha's face. In that case, it's not so bad. Even without using the dōjutsu, the Mangekyō Sharingan was far more powerful than an ordinary Jonin.
"Sensei," Sasuke Uchiha looked up, his eyes showing eagerness and anticipation. "Does he have any leads on his whereabouts?"
Mikoto Uchiha was slightly startled, wanting to speak but holding back. Sasame inwardly thought, Goodness me! You just awakened your eyes, and you're already trying to find Itachi Uchiha? You think you can do it now? He had to admit, Sasuke Uchiha's mentality was a big problem. In the original work, he was often like this. If not for all his cheats, he would have gone to the Pure Land long ago.
"There are some clues," Sasame gave Mikoto Uchiha a reassuring look. "We now know he has joined a mysterious organization, but we still need more time to find his exact location."
"What organization?" Sasuke Uchiha quickly asked. He didn't even care that Sasame and his mom were flirting in front of him.
"I don't know yet," Sasame shook his head and said with a smile. "But don't be in a hurry. When we have a clue, I'll take you to him."
"Thank you, Sensei." Sasuke Uchiha could only suppress his impatience.
"You rest. I'll head back to the Hokage's Office," Sasame saw his state and didn't linger.
"I'll walk you out," Mikoto Uchiha immediately stood up and followed him. Sasuke Uchiha scratched his head, feeling something was very off. Before, he would have considered such behavior normal. Now, it felt like they were showing off their affection.
Sasame noticed Mikoto Uchiha and stopped. The next second, he felt a soft touch on his back and a faint fragrance.
"Thank you," Mikoto Uchiha said softly. Sasame turned to face her, reaching out to caress her cheek. He smiled. "No need to thank me. I didn't lose anything." Mikoto Uchiha understood his words and blushed.
"Speaking of which," Sasame looked down at her. "I actually prefer the way you were before." Mikoto Uchiha's body trembled, and she blushed all the way to her ears. If it were anyone else, she would have called them a pervert. Mikoto Uchiha noticed Sasame's playful smile. She gritted her teeth, then stood on her tiptoes and leaned in. After a quick peck on his lips, she said shyly, "If you like it, I can." Her voice was very small. If not for Sasame's strength, he wouldn't have heard it at all. He was stunned for a moment. Oh, my.Aunt Mikoto, you're that kind of person?But I like it.
"Next time, we'll play something more interesting," Sasame reached out and ruffled her head.
"Okay," Mikoto Uchiha's eyelashes trembled slightly. She rested her head on his chest, her voice filled with anticipation.
"If you don't go back now, Sasuke will become suspicious," Sasame leaned into her ear and bit it gently. Mikoto Uchiha's hazy eyes instantly filled with panic. Although Sasuke Uchiha knew about their relationship, she didn't dare to reveal her other side too much, lest her image shatter.
[Due to your actions, Mikoto Uchiha's fate has changed. You have gained one hundred points of Destiny Value.]
[Due to your actions, Sasuke Uchiha's fate has changed. You have gained seventy points of Destiny Value.]
Sasame returned to the Hokage's Office, and the Destiny Halo prompted him with notifications. Not bad, a good haul.
Because Tsunade was close to her due date, Sasame no longer went on missions. Time flew by. Two months had passed in a blink of an eye. The only major event during this time was the graduation of a new batch of students from the Ninja Academy, which included Neji Hyuga, Rock Lee, and Tenten. Sasame didn't interfere much. The squad leader was still Might Guy. After all, he was the most suitable candidate, especially for Rock Lee. As for the other two, they weren't of much use. One had an inherited bloodline, and the other had her own ninja tools. Sasame suspected that the reason Tenten became a ninja was to promote her family's ninja tools. It was worth noting that she was not only a rich woman but also an "Ouhuang" (someone with exceptionally good luck). In the original story, she could even pick up Six Paths tools, which was truly ridiculous.
Konoha Hospital.
Kabuto Yakushi was teaching a class. He was teaching the White Zetsu cell technology. The students below were all medical ninjas, including Sakura Haruno. She looked at Kabuto Yakushi and was filled with emotion. He was only a few years older than her, yet he was already so amazing. Nonou Yakushi was also listening. However, her skill level was higher, and she had already mastered it. Now, she was mainly there to supervise and to see her adopted son succeed. This made her feel very proud. The two children from the orphanage had both become prominent figures.
The lecture ended. Applause filled the room. Kabuto Yakushi adjusted his glasses and showed a gentle smile. His personality was naturally not as unpredictable as it was in the original work. Most of the time, he was very much like Nonou Yakushi: very approachable. The others left, leaving only Nonou Yakushi and Sakura Haruno, master and disciple.
"Sakura, what do you think?" Kabuto Yakushi asked.
"It's very difficult," Sakura Haruno said honestly. "I don't understand many parts of it."
"You've only been exposed to it for a short time, so that's normal," Kabuto Yakushi said with a gentle smile. "But I believe with your talent, you'll be able to learn it."
"I'll work hard!" Sakura Haruno clenched her fists. After learning this, she wouldn't have to worry about Sasuke Uchiha losing a limb. She could finally be of some use. She was very envious of Ino Yamanaka's tales about Team 9's missions. Unfortunately, she couldn't join. After all, she wasn't strong enough.
"It seems I've come at a good time," Sasame knocked on the door and said with a smile.
"Hokage-sama," Sakura Haruno quickly bowed. Kabuto Yakushi showed no reaction.
"Long time no see, Sasame," Nonou Yakushi greeted him with a smile.
"Director, how have you been?" Sasame nodded in acknowledgment. "If there's anything you need, just let me know."
Nonou Yakushi shook her head. She wasn't being polite. After Sasame became Hokage, her status had risen dramatically. Everyone knew about their relationship, after all. In many aspects, she had received special consideration. For example, medicine. In the past, expensive medicines were difficult to get approved. Now, all she had to do was apply. The orphanage, needless to say, had been renovated several times and was very luxurious.
"Kabuto, I have something I need you to do," after the pleasantries, Sasame looked at Kabuto Yakushi.
"You two can talk," Nonou Yakushi saw this and left the room with Sakura Haruno.
"Have you mastered the Impure World Reincarnation?" Sasame got straight to the point.
"No problem," Kabuto Yakushi asked with a hint of confusion. "As Hokage, won't you get into trouble using this kind of ninjutsu?" In the ninja world, toying with the souls of the dead was a despicable act. Impure World Reincarnation was no exception. After the Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju, developed and used it, it was widely criticized. For example, the Second Tsuchikage of the Hidden Stone Village stated that Impure World Reincarnation was a vile ninjutsu and held it in extreme contempt. Even the First Hokage, Hashirama Senju, once said it was not a good ninjutsu. In the original work, after Tobirama Senju died, Hiruzen Sarutobi, Minato Namikaze, and Tsunade never used Impure World Reincarnation. It was highly likely because of this consideration. Unless they completely gave up their reputation.
"Why would I get into trouble?" Sasame shrugged and said with a smile. "I'm not the one using it."
"..." Kabuto Yakushi was speechless. So I'm the one who's going to take the blame? But then he thought, he didn't care about his reputation anyway.
"Who do you want to revive?" Kabuto Yakushi adjusted his glasses. "I have to remind you, Impure World Reincarnation requires a sacrifice and a certain amount of the deceased's physical remains."
"Let me correct you. This isn't a resurrection," Sasame said. In his opinion, Impure World Reincarnation was more like a puppet created. Although it was very lifelike.
"Rin Nohara," Sasame paused. "Do you know her?"
"No," unlike the know-it-all in the original work, the current Kabuto Yakushi was a recluse. Rin Nohara had died in the Third Great Shinobi War, which was a long time ago, so he had no knowledge of her.
"Do you have her remains?" Kabuto Yakushi asked nonchalantly. He couldn't care less who it was.
"At the Memorial Stone," Sasame felt this question was particularly strange.
"..." Kabuto Yakushi also thought this answer was problematic. If her remains were at the Memorial Stone, didn't that mean she was a Konoha Village ninja? You're the Hokage. Why are you doing something like this? Is it reasonable? Kabuto Yakushi mused, "I can perform Impure World Reincarnation, but you'll have to handle the grave robbing yourself." Clearly, he still had some integrity. Unlike his original self, who was a grave-robbing maniac.
"Alright then," Sasame agreed. It wasn't really grave robbing; he only needed a small piece of her body. The Impure World Reincarnation of Rin Nohara was, of course, to give Obito Uchiha a great gift. At the same time, it was also for Kakashi Hatake. Because simply reviving her wasn't enough. He had to make Obito Uchiha realize that she didn't love him. Impure World Reincarnation used a sacrifice as the body for the deceased. Sasame had no interest in personally experiencing that. Ahem. He had his limits. Besides, Rin Nohara was just an ordinary girl.
"The sacrifice, we can just use White Zetsu," Sasame added.
"White Zetsu?" Kabuto Yakushi blurted out. "White Zetsu has that ability? Can a simple White Zetsu cell be used as a sacrifice?"
"It should be possible," Sasame was slightly taken aback. In the original work, they used a living White Zetsu as a sacrifice. The revived person's strength would be very close to their former self. If an ordinary person was used as a sacrifice, their power would be greatly reduced. For example, Hiruzen Sarutobi's glorious achievement before his death: fighting the revived Hashirama Senju and Tobirama Senju alone. The strength of those two was clearly not at their peak. Otherwise, even with the mutual self-sacrifice of the Reaper Death Seal, he wouldn't have been able to take on two Hokage.
"It's fine. If it doesn't work, I'll go catch a few more for you," Sasame said with a smile.
"You can actually catch them?" Kabuto Yakushi's eyes narrowed with interest. "Catch a few more. I want to see how their consciousness is born."
"I'll try my best," Sasame didn't refuse. They were good buddies, after all.
"Anything else?" Kabuto Yakushi asked again.
"The Third Raikage," Sasame said. He was preparing a training partner for Sasuke Uchiha. The Third Raikage possessed the Hell Stab: One-Finger Nukite, known as the strongest spear, and the Lightning Release Armor, the strongest shield. He was fast, strong, and tough. He was definitely Sasuke Uchiha's nemesis. Furthermore, in the Impure World Reincarnation state, there was no need to fear his dōjutsu. He would surely make Sasuke Uchiha question his life. It had to be said, Sasame was very attentive to his stepson.
"Aren't you afraid of offending the Cloud Village?" Kabuto Yakushi asked, a little surprised. "You'll have to handle the remains yourself." The remains were undoubtedly in the faraway Cloud Village. He was certainly not going to waste his time on that.
"The Cloud Village would never expect the Hokage to be a grave robber," Sasame smiled nonchalantly. "What's the harm in that?"
"..." Kabuto Yakushi twitched his lips. Where did that passionate young man who wanted to restore Konoha's glory go? Why is he so shameless now?
The conversation ended. Sasame left the Konoha Hospital.
Another week passed. In a hospital in the Land of Fire's capital. Sasame stood outside, his face calm, but his heart was anxious. Because Tsunade was in the delivery room. Although with her strength, there wouldn't be any danger, he still couldn't help but worry. Only when the baby's cries were heard did Sasame breathe a sigh of relief. But it quickly turned into anticipation.
Shizune pushed open the door. "They're fine. Mother and daughter are safe and sound." Sasame said nothing and entered the room. Tsunade lay in bed, her face a little pale, but she looked much healthier than a normal pregnant woman. Her eyes, however, were filled with maternal love as she looked at the baby in her arms. Sasame leaned in and couldn't help but smile.
"How are you? Are you okay?"
"I'm fine," Tsunade glared at him. "Do I look that fragile?"
"You look so silly," Tsunade also smiled. "I feel like our daughter looks like you, especially her eyes." Her eyes were a bright brown. Sasame's were a typical black.
"The rest of her looks like you. She'll definitely be a beautiful girl in the future," Sasame reached out and poked her small face. At the same time, he wondered if Mikoto Uchiha's dōjutsu had been effective. If their daughter could inherit his abilities, it would save a lot of trouble.
