Chapitre 172: Chapter 172: Kakuzu's Proposition
Natsuo smiled and turned his gaze to Kushina.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Kushina felt a little nervous when she noticed Natsuo's gaze, she was also observing Pakura and Mikoto in a daze.
But she immediately said without hesitation, "Don't think you can force me with anything. Even though Minato is dead, if he knew that the price of his resurrection was me, he would rather die again!"
"It's impossible to threaten me with Minato!"
Natsuo nodded: "Indeed, the Fourth Hokage was a man who would rather die himself than involve those around him... But don't you want to know what will happen to your child, Naruto?"
"Naruto, what happened to him..." Kushina panicked and quickly denied. "Don't lie to me. Minato is the Fourth Hokage, his former comrades are more than capable of taking care of Naruto."
"Minato sacrificed his life to suppress the Nine Tails, the people of Konoha will definitely not treat Naruto poorly."
"The Third Hokage will definitely take good care of Naruto."
"What could be wrong with Naruto?"
Kushina spoke with increasing confidence.
That's right! Naruto definitely has a bright future!
However, she didn't notice the hesitant expression on Mikoto's face beside her. Mikoto felt embarrassed to reveal the shocking truth. But Natsuo had no qualms about it.
"Indeed, Minato's former subordinates should take good care of his son, but the prerequisite was that they knew the fact that Naruto is Minato's son." Natsuo laughed and said. "The Third Hokage established a strategy to hide Naruto's identity, hoping to exclude others and become the only safe haven for the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki..."
"Guess what he will do to achieve this... Will he allow the residents of Konoha, Minato's former subordinates, or other people to know Naruto's true identity?"
Upon hearing this, Kushina widened her eyes and said: "How is that possible! The Third Hokage promised me that he would take good care of Naruto!"
"If you don't believe me, ask Mikoto." Natsuo shrugged indifferently.
Kushina turned her head and looked at Mikoto.
Mikoto sighed lightly, turned her face away without expression, and whispered. "The Third Hokage forbids discussing Naruto's identity and forbids me and Fugaku, who guessed Naruto's identity, from approaching him."
"Sorry, Kushina, even though I was there at the time, I couldn't do anything for your child."
Upon hearing this, Kushina was instantly stunned.
Who is Naruto? The Nine Tails Jinchuriki!
Previously, Kushina was unwilling to have Minato seal the Nine Tails inside Naruto because she herself was a Jinchuriki and understood the miserable life of a Jinchuriki.
But under Minato's persuasion and considering the support of Minato's former subordinates and disciples, Naruto would definitely not live as miserably as other Jinchuriki, so she finally agreed.
Who would have thought that the Third Hokage would do such a thing to isolate Naruto, conveniently gain Naruto's favor, and thus be able to control the Jinchuriki?
"Sarutobi Hiruzen!!!" Kushina instantly became furious. "I'm going to kill you!"
Her raging chakra burst out from her body, and her roar spread in all directions. If it weren't for the early activation of the barrier around her, half of Konoha would probably have been alarmed by her roar.
Yakushi Kabuto tightly suppressed Kushina's movements. He gritted his teeth and inputted chakra frantically, feeling as if he were pulling a mad bull...
In the end, Kushina collapsed weakly to the ground, her eyes lifeless. Mikoto also lowered her head, her eyes filled with fear. Pakura clenched his teeth, his face full of resentment.
Natsuo, on the other hand, smiled slightly as he looked at the three women with unpleasant expressions.
Pakura, don't you want to see Rasa continue to prosper?
Mikoto, don't you want to see your sons Itachi and Sasuke kill each other?
Kushina, don't you want to see Naruto helpless and targeted by others?
But if all of you were resurrected, these situations could be avoided, right?
So...
"Are you really not considering my previous proposal?" Natsuo asked sincerely.
Mikoto, Pakura, and Kushina were deeply troubled.
Yakushi Kabuto, who was standing next to Natsuo, looked at him helplessly. 'Natsuo-sama, is it necessary to be so insidious?'
However, in the end, Mikoto and the other two women did not agree to Natsuo's proposal.
They couldn't make such a decision so easily...
On the other hand, Natsuo was in no hurry.
Right now, the three women were in the state of Impure World Reincarnation, and they were not in the normal human mode where they could conceive.
Although Natsuo had gathered two resurrection techniques but both techniques required the caster's life, which was not desirable. Although Natsuo was considering how to improve them, it was not a problem that could be solved in a short time. During the time when they were hesitating he gave Natsuo enough time to improve the resurrection techniques...
Yakushi Kabuto looked helpless. Although the hesitation of the three women was not a big deal, it still involved him!
In order to prevent the three women from suddenly exposing themselves, Yakushi Kabuto had to be vigilant of their actions at all times...
And unfortunately, Natsuo did not treat them as simple tools, sealing them in coffins, on the contrary he left them free to show his sincerity to the three. This meant that Yakushi Kabuto's workload increased significantly...
'But what can I do if Natsuo-sama wants to do it?' Yakushi Kabuto sighed in his mind. 'Plus, he promised to help me find Mother's DNA samples.' Since Mikoto and Pakura can be resurrected, Yakushi Nono can also be resurrected.
Although Orochimaru doesn't know what means Natsuo can use to resurrect people, Kabuto believes that since Natsuo tried so hard to summon the three women, he must be very sure of achieving it.
'I can't believe that back then, I didn't handle Mother's body properly out of anger...' Yakushi Kabuto thought, wanting to hit his past self.
But for Yakushi Kabuto at that time, the person he cherished the most, the person he missed every moment, had no impression of him at all.
At that moment, he did not think that it was Danzo's doing, but rather that the Mother had forgotten him and that was why after the confrontation he had gone away in a daze...
This caused a lot of trouble for Yakushi Nono's resurrection.
Although the task of monitoring the three women is extremely demanding, Yakushi Kabuto will absolutely not allow any accidents in his work. Because any mistake on his part could lead to Natsuo giving up on the deal he made with him.
He would rather die than allow something like that to happen.
"By the way, Orochimaru-sama wants me to send him information to help in the development of 'Revival No. 2." Yakushi Kabuto thought for a moment and said. "Natsuo-sama, can I send it to you?"
"Can". Natsuo nodded.
Research materials are actually extremely valuable. Even failed research is the result of a significant amount of funding. For any researcher, research materials are incredibly precious. But for Natsuo... Anything that can be solved with money is no longer important.
"I'm not short of money, let Orochimaru spend whatever he wants, I just want results." Natsuo said without hesitation.
Now that the Uchiha high-tech base in the Land of Snow has been completely built, a large number of high-tech products are flooding various parts of the world. This has made Natsuo earn a fortune.
In the present, the Uchiha industry dominates the field of technology, with various electrical appliances being both cheap and advanced.
If it weren't for the ongoing Shinobi World War, which has caused roadblocks between major countries, Natsuo would soon be worried about making too much money.
But still, with the luxurious lifestyle of the Uchiha, it can really be said that the more money they spend, the more they earn. Because no matter how extravagant the Uchiha lifestyle is, their spending never catches up to their earning speed.
"I understand." Yakushi Kabuto nodded. "Orochimaru-sama should be very happy."
What researcher wouldn't like an investor like this?
Unfortunately, this investment project is not in the direction that Orochimaru likes. Otherwise, Yakushi Kabuto estimates that Orochimaru could directly recommend himself to the Uchiha and become Natsuo's subordinate.
After all, who wouldn't like a wealthy and generous investor who causes few troubles?
After finishing matters with Kabuto, Natsuo continued his hard 'work' to revive the Uchiha clan.
During this time he also used Renshu no Kankei to strengthen his closest wives. And to Natsuo's surprise, it was Ameyuri, who apart from Yukino and Yoko, who managed to develop a complete bond with him.
Perhaps it was because both Yukino and Yoko were not very strong, but when he formed the bond with Ameyuri he noticed that he could share some of the Kekkei Genkai that he had received as rewards from the system. And among them the best was the Shizenchikara, since it granted an instinctive ability that allows its user to absorb and manipulate natural energy without side effects.
"Really..." Ringo Ameyuri looked helpless. "I'm amazed that you can share Kekkei Genkai using this method..."
"Come on, it's getting late, Ameyuri. We should test the effects of my new ability."
As he said that, Natsuo slowly approached. Ameyuri responded by rolling her eyes, but instead of refusing, she opened her arms and hugged Natsuo's body...
A night of hard training.
After sharing the Shizenchikara with Ameyuri, she told him that she had begun to vaguely understand natural energy. She even accidentally fused one of her simplest techniques with natural energy.
It seems that if she strengthens herself a few more times, she could really learn Sage Mode by herself.
Natsuo was delighted. Sage Mode can greatly improve personal strength. If his wives learn it, it means that the children they will give birth to will be even stronger.
He immediately began to work harder on Ameyuri, sweating profusely. Day after day. Until Ameyuri could no longer continue to strengthen himself through Renshu no Kankei. Also due to Natsuo's continued efforts, Ameyuri became pregnant.
Although Ameyuri is already pregnant, there are still many other women who haven't conceived.
If by having a complete bond with Ameyuri Natsuo he can share some Kekkei Genaki with her, there is no reason why the other women can't achieve it.
However, considering that the bond requires an emotional foundation, Natsuo can only be sure that only his closest wives can achieve the requirements to achieve full bond, so for now he can only continue to focus on his closest wives like Yugao, Kurenai and others.
There may be no hope in the short term, but in the next pregnancies... There may be a chance that most of their wives will master the natural energy.
After Yakushi Kabuto learned of the method in which Natsuo could share Kekkei Genkai, he was left helpless. He didn't expect that Natsuo would possess this ability and almost let Ameyuri learn Sage Mode, which not even Orochimaru-sama has learned.
If Orochimaru-sama found out, who knows what he would do... Oh no, actually it's quite easy to guess.
Orochimaru-sama never cares about worldly opinions. As someone who desires the power of Sage Mode, the most likely thing she would do upon learning this is... reveal her current female form and disguise herself as an ordinary kunoichi to enter the Uchiha clan.
Yes, Orochimaru-sama is capable of doing anything to make himself stronger.
But...
"If Natsuo-sama finds out, he will kill him!" Yakushi Kabuto said helplessly. "And he will also kill me, the one who caused all of this."
"For the safety of Orochimaru-sama and my own life, let's not tell Orochimaru-sama about this."
Natsuo continued his efforts. However, in the middle of it, he received a message from Kakuzu.
"Natsuo, there's a woman who, although currently only at the level of a Jonin, has exceptional talent and a high probability of becoming Kage-level... Will you take her in?" Kakuzu's calm voice sounded.
