Chapter 122 Mother and Daughter Both Harvested
"Alright then," An sighed regretfully, "I still want to see if you can awaken the Rinnegan after you've merged the Sage Body and Sage Eyes into one!"
"It looks like we'll have to wait a while longer to know the results."
"The Rinnegan?" Hiruko was taken aback upon hearing this and looked over curiously. "The eyes of the leader, Nagato?"
The one that the Sage of Six Paths wore?
"Didn't I tell you?" An scratched her chin with her finger, tilted her head to think carefully, and then...
It seems like I haven't said that!
He chuckled twice before slowly explaining, "The so-called Sage's Eyes and Sage's Body are inherited from the lineage of the Sage of Six Paths. So, in principle, as long as these scattered bloodlines are brought back together, it is possible to achieve the effect of reversion to one's ancestral roots and allow the Sage of Six Paths' eyes to reappear."
"How to fuse them, and how long it will take to fuse them successfully, are all unknowns."
"Both the Senju physique and the Uzumaki physique are Sage Body types. It is known that when our clan's Sharingan is fused with the Senju clan's Sage Body, there is a chance to awaken the Rinnegan. However, whether the Uzumaki physique can also have this effect is unknown."
"Is that so!" Hiruko was immediately tempted, but after his gaze lingered on Karin's mother's broken body a few times, he finally gave up the idea of absorbing her now.
"I will tell you the results after I have integrated with the new Vortex Clan members."
"Okay, it's settled then." An nodded, then looked at the two unconscious women and frowned, "So you don't want the older one?"
"No, you can kill it or sell it, it's up to you."
"Kill what?" An also rolled his eyes at Hiruko, disdainfully saying, "Do you think I'm the kind of person who only knows how to kill?"
"If you don't want anything better, I'll take you as my subordinate."
"I'm planning to build up my own power base, so it's perfect that she'll take care of the little girls and boys, which will save me a lot of time."
"If all else fails, I'll send her to Nagato as a gift. I'm sure the leader will be very happy to see a member of his own clan."
"Heh, I didn't expect you, an Uchiha, to know how to flatter!" Hiruko sneered, his tone full of sarcasm.
"This is called managing upwards, what do you know?!" An glared at him, shouting loudly.
"Let me tell you, you just don't know how to manage upwards, that's why you're doing so badly in the ninja world."
"Look at that tiny organization you've set up, just a handful of people, and they have to disguise themselves as a merchant caravan to travel around the ninja world."
.
"What's the point of this?"
"You should be like me, find a powerful backer to cling to, and destroy Konoha Village just like that. Isn't that much better than working hard for years and achieving nothing?"
"I earned it all through my own hard work and perseverance!" Hiruko retorted, clearly dissatisfied with his words. "Everything I have is the result of my own efforts; I never rely on any external force!"
"That's called being stupid!" An's words were as sweet as honey, yet as venomous as could be. "If you have power to use, why not use it?"
"What distinguishes humans from animals is their ability to make use of things. Have you heard of that?"
"Oh, right, I forgot, you only graduated from ninja elementary school, you're uneducated!"
Being told he was uncultured by an illiterate person made the veins on Beiliuhu's forehead bulge.
"What right do you have to say I'm uncultured?"
Do you understand the principles of bloodline fusion?
Do you know how to eliminate the rejection reaction between different organs?
Do you know how many types of interactions exist between genetic factors and chakra?
"You don't understand, do you?"
"Admit it, you're the one who's truly illiterate!"
"Tsk, yours is biology, which belongs to the sciences. I'm talking about the humanities." An widened her eyes and argued, "I'm illiterate in science, and you're illiterate in the humanities. We're both equally illiterate."
Hiruko couldn't understand what An was saying, and too lazy to pay attention to him, he just started walking away, heading towards the Land of Water.
If we let Uchiha An lead the way again, who knows where he might lead us? It's safer to ask for directions as we go.
An handed the two women to Uchiha Tetsuka and Uchiha Inaho, having them each carry one on their backs and follow behind. Meanwhile, he kept nagging and bothering Hiruko, slowly building rapport with his new clansman in his own unique way.
Hiruko was not a member of any clan ninja and had no talent for ninjutsu, so she must have been discriminated against in a place like Konoha.
Although he had been in the same class as many people and had some friends, he had almost no one who truly recognized his abilities.
This led him to walk alone on his scientific research path, while he also desperately wanted to gain recognition from others.
Although An looks like a lunatic and has an extremely venomous tongue, he has actually come to regard Hiruko as his comrade and has recognized Hiruko in his own way.
So, gradually, Hiruko also came to regard Yasu as a companion and accepted his approach.
Otherwise, given An's foul mouth and his occasional erratic behavior, Hiruko would have already started fighting with him, instead of waiting until now.
They hadn't gone far when a groan came from Tiehuo's back.
Xiangling's mother woke up first, but after so many years of suffering, she had become incredibly obedient.
Although she realized she had left Kusagakure, she didn't dare to speak because she couldn't be sure whether these people were friends or foes. She just obediently lay on Tetsuka's back with a submissive expression, not daring to move for fear of being beaten.
A moment later, Karin also woke up.
However, Karin was much more lively than her mother. After opening her eyes, the little girl rubbed them, looked around, hesitated for a moment, and then suddenly cheered.
"Ah, we've escaped Kusagakure!"
"Mom, we escaped!"
Before her mother could stop her from talking, Karin started chattering away, pointing at Inagi's back beneath her.
"Oh, this symbol is the Uchiha clan. I've heard my mother mention it."
"You're from Konoha. Did the Hokage send you to rescue us?"
"Karin, don't talk nonsense!" Her mother waved her hands nervously, her face pale with fright, fearing that Karin would anger these powerful ninjas and bring disaster upon herself.
Although she was trapped in Kusagakure, she was able to glean some information from conversations between the ninjas, learning that the relationship between Konoha and the Uchiha clan was far from friendly.
In particular, a distinct scratch on the forehead protectors of all of them clearly identified the group.
They are all rogue ninja!
In the ninja world, there are few good rogue ninjas; most of them are heinous criminals.
"? Isn't that right?" Karin asked, squinting her eyes in confusion.
"Of course not." An leaned closer, bringing her face close to Karin's, and said fiercely, "Konoha is Konoha, and the Uchiha are the Uchiha. They will have absolutely no connection from now on!"
"Ah!" Karin was startled and instinctively shrank back, a look of fear on her face.
Karin's mother hurriedly pleaded, "Sir, my name is Uzumaki Kokoro, and this is my daughter, Uzumaki Karin. She is still young and doesn't understand things. Please, sirs, don't take offense at a child like her."
"If anyone should be punished, punish me. It's my fault for not raising my child well."
Karin quickly interjected, "No, no, it's not Mom's fault. Don't hit Mom, hit me instead."
"Hmph!" An snorted coldly, ignoring them, and loudly announced to the two of them, "From today onwards, you two are my subordinates. From now on, behave yourselves and do your jobs well, understand?"
"Yes, yes, I understand." Karin and her mother nodded hurriedly, obediently lowered their heads, and remained silent.
