Kapitel 55: Chapter 56
[A/N: I know some of you may dislike having too much diversity in power, but honestly I find this more useful since you can adapt to the situation.]
====================
It's already been a few months since I awakened my Rinnegan and the powers it gave me were truly appreciated.
Just before, the end of the war gave me access to both Mū's and Hiruzen's techniques, consisting of Dust Release with the possibility to become invisible or split myself in two as well as the destructive main technique, and the Sarutobi Clan multiple Fire Hiden, as well as the dreaded Telescope Technique, for research purpose.
Without forgetting Lava Release from Rōshi and the broken infinite access to Dark Chakra from the Zero-Tails.
The Rinnegan' Six Paths Technique, which by the way consists of seven different paths, was far stronger than what I saw from Nagato in the canon.
This was even more true since I didn't split the techniques by using the 'Six Paths of Pain'.
My favorite Path is the 'Deva Path' which grants me the ability to manipulate attractive and repulsive forces, a strong and dangerous ability since I knew that I could destroy far, far more than Konoha if I used 'Shinra Tensei' with all my might.
Also, knowing about how those two forces worked, I could probably do better stuff than what was shown.
The second is the 'Asura Path' which allowed me to modify my body mechanically with weaponry and armor.
Said like this, it doesn't seem to be that strong, but since I knew about many kinds of technologies from my previous life and other fiction, I could become a dangerous nuclear human, or even make myself a mecha which my distant past chuuni self would have loved.
The third was the 'Animal Path' which allowed me to summon a wide variety of immortal, giant, loyal, and powerful creatures coming from different dimensions, as well as summoning people, and all without the need for any blood contract.
I had yet to summon any, but I knew that they were different depending on the user so I was still eager to see what kind of creatures I would bring.
Another one, strong defensively, is the 'Preta Path' which absorbs anything chakra-based that has contact with me.
This will be even more powerful once I can get rid of my Senjutsu issue, eliminating any weaknesses the technique still had.
Sadly, I had two 'useless' Paths, namely the 'Human Path' and the 'Naraka Path'.
The first was because I could already read the mind of someone without even needing contact and I could already absorb souls.
The latter was the same since I could absorb the memories, and the souls I absorbed were inside my body and not inside the King of Hell.
Though I could still use the King of Hell to 'repair' any damage done to someone or something by swallowing them.
The last Path is the 'Outer Path' which allows me to revive the dead, by bringing the soul of the deceased from the afterlife, and used in combination with the 'Impure World Reincarnation' I could revive someone long dead as well.
Now, this was apparently at the cost of the user's life, though I had a theory that it cost the entire life force that the user has during his life which kills him.
This could mean that having more life force than my 'normal' human lifespan could have would keep me alive.
I didn't have the guts to try it right now, but I will test such a theory one day.
The Rinnegan also gave me access to other techniques such as the 'Black Receiver' and the 'Demonic Statue Chains'.
But the most important gain was that evolving my eyes improved my Mangekyô Sharingan abilities as well, and it seems like it would be the case every time my Dōjutsu improves.
I could now absorb living people with Suijin, though I needed to touch their heads with my right hand for a few seconds, which asked me to restrict them before.
As for Kunitokotachi, I still had the same limitations but I was now able to affect myself.
I didn't know what would happen once I have the Tensei Rinne Sharingan, but I was also curious about going even further than that.
When I had time, I stayed inside of the laboratory along with Orochimaru, who successfully made a regeneration technique strong enough to withstand the Shikotsumyaku, to try and create a vessel for Kaguya.
Orochimaru doesn't know about her but didn't ask the reason as to why I wanted to create artificial life, he only wanted to see if it was possible to 'create' a living being.
The goal was to make a body highly similar to Kaguya in terms of height, weight, and look, though it won't have any impact, and more importantly, it needed to withstand the DNA of both an Uchiha and a Senju, the Rinnegan and the chakra of the Ten-Tails.
This was far from being an easy task, and I didn't know how long it would take us to successfully bring it to life.
I know that I could simply use Madara as Black Zetsu intended but for multiple reasons, I didn't want to.
Nevertheless, I was going back home for the day, and without even knocking a the door, a cute blue-haired girl opened it, expecting my arrival.
"Welcome back, Yuichi-sama." Konan politely said as she bowed slightly
'She's becoming like Chizu now' I thought with a smile as I patted her head since she was far from being tall and replied "Thanks Konan."
She tried her best to hide her joy but still smiled anyway since I kept on patting her for a while, which was too much for her.
"Let's go to the living room, shall we?" I said as I took off my hand and moved towards the main room
Going inside I saw Tsunade laying on the couch with a book in her hand, but the most noticeable thing was the big bulge her belly had.
'It's been six months already' I thought with a smile since our child will be born soon
Shifting her gaze on me, Tsunade asked "Welcome back, how was your day?" with a smile as she closed her book and was getting up
"You don't need to get up, I was going to join you." I said as I quickly moved towards the couch and gently made her sit back down as I relaxed to her side
"You know that I'm not made of glass." Tsunade said with a smirk as I was being too careful
"I-I know... It's just, *sigh* I can't help it." I said slightly embarrassed
I didn't show it most of the time, but Tsunade knew that I was extremely nervous about becoming a father, a rare feeling for me but I truly couldn't help it.
She giggled before asking me again "Your little project for the fortress progressed smoothly?" while Konan appeared carrying a plate with three cups of tea
"Thanks, Konan." I shortly said while taking a cup before explaining "The buildings are done, they just need to be filled with their proper furniture, the exterior is progressing nicely, at least for the roads but the lights have yet to be installed, and the vegetation will be done by me when the rest is over."
I then sipped a little bit of tea before adding "As for the staff, I have yet to find sufficient forces since I didn't want to only use my clones... But I will recruit from all around the continent."
"I'm eager to play every game the giant casino will hold, and I know that the barmen will be on point since it's under your supervision." Tsunade said as she drank her tea in one go as if it was a cup of alcohol
I forbid her from drinking alcohol until our child is born so I can't imagine how many bottles she will empty a few days later.
"This will become the best place to go on vacation, mark my words." I said with pride as I puffed my chest
Then something clicked in my head before asking "Now that I think about it, Yugito is still not back from the Academy?"
Konan was the first to reply "She's surely staying at Kakashi's house, apparently they always train together after the Academy, though she is a bit late today."
"She's doing like Kushina huh..." I muttered though I wasn't against it in case they develop feelings for each other
Both deserved someone for sure, and both will be strong shinobi as well.
"Then we will have dinner without h-" I started to suggest but the sudden appearance of Chizu interrupted me and made the three of us look at her
"What's the matter? Didn't I ask you to have a day off?" I inquired with a pressing tone before looking at whatever she was holding between her arms
"A-ga." a sound came from the sheets she was carrying
"A baby?" I asked seeing a sleeping infant before looking in awe at Chizu but before I could add anything she explained "First of all, he's not mine, Yuichi-sama."
"Then who?" Tsunade asked as she was curious as well
====================
*Flashback-no-Jutsu, Chizu's POV*
I don't understand the need for a day off, why would I ever stop to serve Yuichi-sama even for a single day? It's such a waste of time for me.
Yet Yuichi-sama ordered me to take a day off so I obliged... But I didn't know what to do, thankfully, Yuichi-sama gave me a list of tasks in a scroll called 'Entertainment in Konoha for Chizu' but the last word was written over another one, I couldn't see what it was entirely, I only knew that it started with 'Du'.
'I guess it was meant to be 'Entertainment in Konoha for Duty' I thought nodding to myself
Thanks to this scroll, I would still be useful to Yuichi-sama even during a day off.
Since the day Yuichi-sama saved my life as well as my brother's, I vowed to myself to never leave Yuichi-sama's side and to always fulfill everything Yuichi-sama would ask me, and not even death shall stop me from serving Yuichi-sama.
My soul, mind, and body belong to Yuichi-sama and nobody else.
Regardless, I should do what I was asked for today, being late is out of the question.
'Let's see... The first task is to go to a Relaxing House? And I have to do everything they propose' thought as I was reading the content of the scroll
The purpose should be to see if something fishy is going on, as expected of Yuichi-sama!
And Yuichi-sama gave me a special dress made by Yuichi-sama's hands, how blessed can I be!
Yuichi-sama said that the dress is a Qipao, I didn't know what it was, but it's amazing nonetheless.
I had to relax inside a hot spring then get a full body massage, test the sauna, and finally a manicure.
After that, I was tasked to have lunch at Ichiraku Ramen, surely to see how the boy Teuchi is doing since the restaurant is funded by Yuichi-sama.
Then I had to go through the outside market and buy whatever piqued my interest, which had to be something useful for Yuichi-sama or their future child.
And lastly before dinner, there is a special event near Konoha's south gate.
A drama would be held by famous vagabonds and since it's the first time they perform at Konoha, I had to be wary of them doing something suspicious.
Lastly, I had to go and report to Yuichi-sama after dinner to not embarrass them, so I would eat somewhere else.
"Time to work!" I let out with joy as I flexed my arms
*A few hours later*
My tasks for the day are almost done, I didn't find anything weird going on inside of the Relaxing House even though I stayed alert mos- all the time, the restaurant is doing fine, it's always full and the food is really good but Teuchi told me that he wished to recruit waiters.
The outside market was very lively as well, I had a hard time finding something to buy, but I couldn't keep myself from buying a plush... It was a viperfish with big white eyes, sharp long teeth, and yellow scales.
It was really cute, I'm sure Yuichi-sama's and Tsunade-sama's children will love it.
'Snap out of it Chizu, you have one last thing to do' I thought to myself as I slapped my cheeks and found a place to sit while waiting for the drama to start
Asking the civilians already present, I learned that the vagabonds' play was about Yuichi-sama and his prowess during the war, something unexpectedly wonderful since they do not share information about their play until there are enough spectators.
'I hope that they will make a proper image of Yuichi-sama, not that anyone ca-' I thought but smelled the blood of someone hiding suspiciously on top of a tree a few meters away
The blood I smell is never the same between two individuals, therefore, I memorize the blood of everyone I encounter, something that was like a primal instinct for me.
'And Yuichi-sama's blood smell the best' I thought as I nodded to myself before focusing back on the weird blood I scented
I decided to leave the place stealthily which was not hard since it was quite crowded and moved towards the suspicious individual.
Once nobody was in sight, I quickly made my shinobi attire with blood and grabbed my stiletto that was bound to my right hip.
"Show yourself." I said to the person hidden in the tree as I was ready to strike
"..." no response was heard before the individual threw multiple projectiles at me
"This will do." I said countering them before dashing towards the assailant
But the moment I approached, he quickly vanished and appeared a few meters away, running.
'As if I would let you leave this place after doing that' I thought before pumping more blood inside of my body to boost my speed
As he was running away from Konoha, I was able to quickly catch up and saw him run towards a tree which I believed was my chance to grab him.
But surprisingly, he passed through the tree as if he merged with it for a second, getting a bit further from me.
Not willing to stop there, I quickly kicked the ground to get around the tree and kept pursuing him.
After a while of him passing through trees which allowed him to keep me away, he disappeared inside of a small wooden house that shouldn't be there.
I couldn't smell his blood any longer, as if he disappeared completely, but instead, I sensed someone else.
What I found weird was that it smelled extremely fresh, as if it was someone far too young.
I decided to enter the house only after sending blood behind the door in case it was a trap, but I found nothing weird except for a bundle of sheets where I sensed the fresh blood.
'An infant?' I thought stunned by the turn of events, before opening the door, making the baby cry at the loud sound
'Let's bring him to Yuichi-sama, but before I should make him stop' I thought as I stayed careful with the baby that barely had hair and couldn't open his eyes yet
====================
*Yuichi's POV*
"Did the smell remind you of someone? Could you identify the gender, age and tell me how he looked?" I inquired as she stopped reciting her story
"The smell was extremely odd, it didn't feel like it was the blood of a single person, and it was like something else was blended. I think it may have been a woman considering that the chest was developed although hidden beneath a cloak, I cannot deduce her age since I didn't see the face, but only know that she was not tall." Chizu replied as the baby in her arms started to squirm
"No information about the baby?" I asked as it was waking up
"There was a small note with the baby which said 'For Kazae'." Chizu finally declared as she showed me the note
This surprised me as I exclaimed "Chikako's grandmother?"
'But why would a baby be sent to her in such a way... The only possibility would be for the baby to be Chikako's child but she vanished and is presumed dead, and Chizu would have recognized her blood if she was the intruder' I thought as I rubbed my chin
*sigh*
"I will dig deeper into this event later, for now I should bring the baby to Kazae." I said as I got up, approached Chizu, and gently took the baby from her arms
"I hope you still enjoyed your day Chizu, also, you can stay for dinner." I said with a smile as I looked at her before turning towards Tsunade and Konan "Dinner is ready, feel free to eat without me since I do not know for how long I will be at the Uchiha Clan's compound."
I then moved towards Kazae's house without teleporting since I was carrying an infant and transformed myself into a civilian to avoid any stupid rumors about me.
Luckily for me, Kazae's house was on the outskirts of the Uchiha Clan's compound, allowing me to visit without much difficulty.
*Knock Knock*
The door opened as I heard "Yes, who is it?" from an elderly woman
I changed my face back to mine and said "It's been a while Kazae-san." with a smile to which she replied "Hokage-sama? Why do you visit this old me at this time of the day?"
"It might be about Chikako." I said as I showed her the baby between my arms as well as the small note on display
"This baby is... Oh my! I recognize Chikako's handwriting, did she came back?!" Kazae asked one hand in front of her mouth to hide her surprise
"Sadly no... But you at least confirmed to me that she is surely alive, and this baby is surely hers." I said as she was still happy from the news before looking at the infant
"So this is her child... And it's a boy." she said before I explained "Yeah... But I don't know his name, there was only this note asking to give you the baby."
"No need to worry any longer, Chikako told me the name she would give to her future child, be it male or female." Kazae announced to which I asked "Oh? Could you tell me?"
"Of course." she replied with a smile, "since it's a boy... His name is Shisui, Uchiha Shisui."
No need to say that this declaration left me in awe.
AUTORENGEDANKEN 
Yasashiki
Yasashiki Done.
I’m updating the status page along with this chapter, but it will take days before it gets online.
Also, I guess you know how my writing style is after all those chapters...
I don't like doing slices of life or add details that make a single sentence a paragraph of 100-200 words.
I was a big reader before, and I know that I would only skip to the interesting stuff if paragraphs are too big or useless to the progress of the story, unless nicely done like a few fanfics I read.
Thanks!
