Tobirama went silent. He chose not to argue.
Then, Hashirama and Tobirama suddenly sensed the surrounding space shift.
Uchiha Yu was fulfilling his promise.
Having found Hikari, he gathered his will, restoring the prison-space to its original size.
"This kid actually has so integrity."
Hashirama and Tobirama both let out long breaths of relief. They imdiately leaned their backs against the wall and slid down, their spiritual bodies finally relaxing.
"So," Tsunade asked, "how do you plan to wake her up?"
Tsunade's gaze didn't move away from the young Uchiha girl. Curiously, she asked.
Uchiha Yu thought seriously for a mont, then suddenly said:
"Have you ever heard a story like this? Long ago, in a certain country, there was a princess who fell into a deep sleep, and later…"
Tsunade interrupted, "Later, she was awakened by a highly skilled dical ninja, right?"
"…."
Uchiha Yu's expression froze for a mont. He shook his head and corrected her:
"No. A prince passed by, kissed the princess, and then a miracle happened—the princess woke up."
Clearly, there wasn't a second transmigrator in the shinobi world. Or maybe there was, but none who earned a living by writing fairy tales or telling stories.
"Oh, I get it," Tsunade suddenly realized—then she frowned.
"No, wait. Artificial respiration is only used for cardiac arrest or food poisoning situations."
Uchiha Yu's face darkened.
Artificial respiration your ass!!
Setting aside the dical details, Tsunade stiffened and glared at him.
"You're telling this story—don't tell you're planning to do that to her… hmm?"
Beast!!!
Tsunade's expression shifted dramatically.
Uchiha Yu was montarily speechless before explaining:
"I just saw the scene and suddenly thought of the story."
Tsunade looked at him with contempt, clearly not believing him.
But Uchiha Yu continued calmly:
"I'm guessing her vital signs and the seal in her body reached their limits simultaneously. If you inject chakra into her, she should be able to break the seal herself.
That's why you should do it. You're the most capable—and far better suited for it than anyone else."
This was one of the reasons he brought Tsunade here. When it ca to saving people, Tsunade was the professional.
Hearing this, Tsunade remained doubtful, but still leaped into the coffin.
She held the Uchiha girl in her arms, channeling healing chakra and examining her condition.
It was certainly better for her to awaken the girl herself rather than letting such a beautiful young woman be "saved" by Uchiha Yu using that suspicious thod he ntioned earlier.
After a mont, Tsunade frowned deeply, staring at the girl's face as she spoke solemnly:
"You're right. There really is a lingering seal inside her, and her life force is nearly gone. As expected, there's no sealing technique in the shinobi world that can indefinitely extend human life."
Uchiha Yu replied,
"Being sealed until death was probably considered better than killing her outright by the Senju back then."
"...Sigh."
Tsunade let out a soft sigh. Her right hand gathered a glowing green chakra scalpel, slicing toward several points on the girl's body.
Zzzzz—
The chakra scalpel didn't harm the girl's skin. Instead, it accurately severed the decaying seal techniques engraved on her body.
If the seal had still been at full strength, the chakra scalpel wouldn't have been able to break it so violently.
Since she intended to save the girl, Tsunade figured she might as well remove the seal entirely.
As the seal dissolved—
At so point, a palm-sized, chubby little slug appeared on Tsunade's smooth right shoulder.
Its body was a mix of blue and white, soft and plush-looking like a stuffed toy.
"I'm counting on you. Please inject chakra into her," Tsunade said seriously, looking at Katsuyu.
"Of course."
The tiny Katsuyu wiggled its two antennae slightly, responding in a gentle woman's voice.
Then the little slug slowly crawled down Tsunade's right arm, inching its way to the paired hands of Hikaru.
Szzzz—
The slug gently bit the skin on Hikaru's hand, injecting chakra into her.
As the chakra flowed, its body shrank smaller and smaller. During this ti, Tsunade quickly stepped back, moving away from the coffin.
"Let's begin the mission."
Wearing Itachi's face, Uchiha Yu activated the Yachinokama Mangekyō and glanced toward the nearby reincarnated Uchiha.
"Yes, sir—"
The Edo Tensei Uchiha instantly understood and tossed their digging tools aside.
They had no idea that the Yachinokama imprint in their minds had already been dissolved.
The reason Uchiha Yu didn't use Wood Release or Earth Release to search for Hikaru was to create a certain illusion.
Once the little slug completely vanished—
Uchiha Yu, Tsunade, Hashirama, Tobirama, and the rest of the reincarnated Uchiha all grew increasingly solemn.
Clang—
In the center of the coffin, Uchiha Hikaru's eyelashes trembled briefly—and then her eyes snapped open.
Her consciousness lted like ice under sunlight.
She felt her strength rapidly returning.
The seal that had blocked her chakra in the darkness had vanished entirely.
Soone had undone her seal ahead of ti.
Soone had injected chakra into her!
Her mories and awareness ca flooding back.
In her ears she heard the furious shouting of her clan:
"From today onward, you will no longer have a na!
We will transplant Amaterasu, Tsukuyomi, Takemikazuchi into you, and you already possess the Yachinokama Mangekyō Sharingan!
You will beco the clan's strongest weapon of war!"
"Kill the entire Senju clan! Kill the Sarutobi clan!
Kill every shinobi clan that opposes the Uchiha—this is your mission!"
"Your father and mother love you—Hikari!"
"Huff—!"
She jolted awake. Her breathing slowed, her lips parted slightly.
Blue sky.
The scent of flowers and grass.
She rembered her final battle—exhausted, without support from the clan, she had run out of chakra and was sealed by the combined forces of Senju and Sarutobi shinobi.
As her vision cleared, Hikaru saw several Uchiha standing upon the dirt around the pit, staring coldly at her.
Though their bodies were cracked and strange, the clan uniforms they wore were unforgettable.
"Uchiha!!"
Her pupils contracted sharply, red light flickering—
Blade-like patterns spun into place: the Mangekyō Sharingan activated.
In an instant, the perfect war weapon awoke—and her killing intent exploded.
The Edo Uchiha captain jerked backward.
Being stared at by this girl felt like a mountain suddenly slamming down on him—
a suffocating force that seed capable of tearing him into countless pieces.
Swish—
A black blur flashed across the Edo Uchihas' vision.
The girl in the coffin had vanished.
BOOM—
When they regained awareness—
They were horrified to find that their captain's head—and upper body—had burst apart, reduced to fragnts raining across the air.
She had leapt up and landed a single kick to his right cheek, blasting him apart!
Such overwhelming raw taijutsu!
In the next mont—
Each of the Edo Uchihas felt the Yasakani pattern flare in their eyes as chakra was instantly drained from their bodies.
When they looked at the girl—
they froze in shock.
Blue chakra flas roared around her body.
In the blink of an eye, Hikaru had used Yasakani to seize control of the reincarnated Uchihas and drain every trace of chakra from them.
