Chapter 355
355. Chapter 348: Kamui, Tsukihime, Sleepy Black Tea
After dinner.
Tomorrow he would leave the village and embark on the journey to Sunagakure, so Uchiha Gin took advantage of the gap after dinner to stroll to the backyard alone, waiting for today's NPC to refresh.
Accompanied by a stagnation of the air around him, a ripple light screen familiar to Uchiha Gin appeared in the void.
The next moment, a uniquely shaped three-pronged kunai shot out from the light screen, heading straight for Uchiha Gin.
Uchiha Gin rolled his eyes.
This kind of operation...
It's that guy again.
Uchiha Gin picked his nose, as if he had turned on a foresight cheat. He tilted his neck lightly, skillfully dodging the kunai attack, and then bent his knees in a squat, letting the long-premeditated attack of the young man who suddenly appeared behind him miss.
"Is your kid a protozoan? Every time it's the exact same routine. Is this copied from a trash walkthrough?"
Uchiha Gin, squatting on the ground, looked up with a helpless face at the frequent visitor of the past few years, that one-eyed Uchiha young man.
The persistent spirit of this NPC was indeed admirable, but attacking him according to a template every time really gave him the feeling of a low-intelligence AI.
Seeing that the sneak attack failed, the one-eyed Uchiha young man's exposed eye instantly turned scarlet, and three tomoe spun rapidly, turning into a pattern Uchiha Gin was extremely familiar with.
Kamui!
Feeling the violent pulling sensation coming from the space, Uchiha Gin raised his eyebrows, his eyes turning red as a sign of respect.
Seeing Uchiha Gin's eyes also turn into Sharingan, a flash of imperceptible smugness crossed the young man's face, but the next moment, his expression froze.
Uchiha Gin's eye turned into a shuriken pattern, and the ultimate illusion technique called Tsukuyomi was ready to go.
The young man was so scared that his whole body stiffened, subconsciously clenching his buttocks. The pupil technique he had originally prepared to absorb Uchiha Gin also turned into a portal for escape.
But it was already too late. As the shuriken turned, the young man knelt on the ground with a dull gaze, leaving only a look of extreme terror on his face.
"Not bad performance this time, you actually made me use my pupil technique~"
Uchiha Gin patted the one-eyed young man's shoulder in appreciation and left without looking back.
Behind him, the one-eyed young man kneeling on the ground was quickly taken away by the light screen descending from the sky, leaving no trace behind.
"Backyard daily refresh random skill 【Pupil Technique: Kamui】, obtained Pupil Technique: Kamui Fragment *4."
【Pupil Technique: Kamui (40/40), collect 40 fragments to synthesize Pupil Technique: Kamui, Mangekyou Sharingan skill can be learned.】
Actually collected enough?
Uchiha Gin, who hadn't walked out of the backyard yet, was stunned in place in surprise. One had to know that the skill Kamui was extremely difficult to brush out.
And the drop method was similar to the previous Flying Thunder God Formation. Although it wasn't explicitly stated that it was a skill exclusive to someone,
the fragments only exploded from the Konoha Technician "Five-Five-Split" and the previous one-eyed young man.
【Synthesize?】
"Synthesize."
【Synthesis successful, learn?】
"Learn!"
Uchiha Gin, full of anticipation, didn't hesitate and clicked a few times. As a dazzling light flashed, the pile of fragments instantly turned into a stream of light and drilled into his eyes.
"Transparent~"
The cold and majestic pupil power made Uchiha Gin shiver comfortably, and a thick stack of dense Kamui user manuals flooded into his mind at the same time.
Uchiha Gin raised his hand to condense a water mirror, carefully examining the Kamui pattern in his eyes, and found it slightly different from the previous young man's; the blank space in the middle of the pupil was filled by his own non-tomoed Mangekyou.
This was the same as Uchiha Gin's situation when using other Mangekyou before, but he didn't care; anyway, he could use it.
After admiring his new pattern, Uchiha Gin cast his gaze on the wooden dummy in the backyard.
That was a teaching aid he made with Wood Release for F6 training, which had been abandoned for many years but was still as good as new.
"Kamui!"
As his eyes focused, a vortex suddenly appeared in the void, carrying a twisting spatial force, and in the blink of an eye, it sucked the innocent training dummy into the vortex, leaving only a shallow trace on the ground.
"Not bad, not bad~"
Uchiha nodded with satisfaction. This move was truly a great helper for disposing of trash. From now on, he wouldn't have to throw fruit peels and paper scraps into the Realm of Shadows, lest Kaguya Wangliang throw a tantrum again and refuse to cooperate with his transformation.
"Clatter!"
In a gloomy and gray space, a brand-new training dummy suddenly fell from the sky. The sound produced by the fall was extremely harsh in the entire space, and it also woke up a scarlet eye filled with cold intent.
"Throwing trash around again..."
"Kakashi..."
But Uchiha Gin, who knew nothing about what happened in the Kamui space, hummed a happy little tune, preparing to have a good sleep.
"We common people, are really, really happy~"
Eh?
Suddenly, a rich spatial force rippled behind Uchiha Gin again, making his brows furrow slightly.
Still coming?
Could it be that the system has updated?
Uchiha Gin hadn't encountered a situation where a skill was refreshed twice in one night. He turned his head in confusion, only to see a familiar beautiful figure.
From the black hole opened in the void, Otsutsuki Otsutsuki Yueji, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, walked out with elegant steps, her eyes revealing the unique cyan-blue of the Tenseigan.
Uchiha Gin blinked and stretched his neck to look behind Otsutsuki Otsutsuki Yueji, but only saw emptiness, not the person he imagined.
"Stop looking, Otsutsuki Biluo-jie didn't come."
Walking slowly to Uchiha Gin, Otsutsuki Otsutsuki Yueji crossed her arms, raised her head, and rolled her eyes at the curly-haired guy in front of her, then shattered his expectations with an extremely cold voice.
"Eh?"
Uchiha Gin curled his lips in disappointment. He really missed Otsutsuki Biluo, that understanding big sister. She was the one who could tolerate all his little quirks, not even losing to Mito.
"Sister-in-law, what are you here for?"
Anyway, he had already confirmed his relationship with Otsutsuki Biluo, so he had no burden calling her sister-in-law. Uchiha Gin didn't hide his disappointed expression at all, scratched his head, and asked listlessly.
"The day agreed upon with that woman has arrived."
Otsutsuki Otsutsuki Yueji still had that iceberg-like appearance on her face, but in her heart, she had long since cursed Uchiha Gin, this stinky thief, to death.
She, the dignified clan leader of the Otsutsuki clan, the pinnacle of the moon who combined beauty and wisdom, was actually treated with such a perfunctory attitude—it was simply a heinous crime!
"Tsk, so it was this matter!"
Uchiha Gin suddenly realized. So sister-in-law came to find Xiao Guang for a sparring match~
Since these two started clashing, they often competed. Although Otsutsuki Otsutsuki Yueji's Tenseigan was powerful, Xiao Guang's Eternal Eye wasn't to be trifled with either. The two women fought back and forth, and for a while, it was hard to tell the winner, often stopping only when they were exhausted.
So after the two finished a fight, they would agree on the time for the next sparring match to regroup and fight again.
But Xiao Guang was going to the Land of Wind with him tomorrow. If they had a big fight now, she would have to rest in bed for several days again.
"What's wrong?"
Otsutsuki Otsutsuki Yueji, standing in place, saw the look of embarrassment on Uchiha Gin's face, and her two delicate eyebrows furrowed.
"I might have to disappoint you. Xiao Guang is going out on official business with me tomorrow, so she can't spar with you."
Uchiha Gin scratched his face and explained to the confused Otsutsuki Otsutsuki Yueji.
"Official business? The two of you?"
Hearing this, a flash of envy crossed Otsutsuki Otsutsuki Yueji's eyes, and then she asked coldly.
"Uh... although there is a client, Xiao Guang and I will act together."
Not knowing why Otsutsuki Otsutsuki Yueji wanted to ask so specifically, Uchiha Gin still answered truthfully.
He and Uchiha Guang were teaming up to go out; they would definitely be together in food, clothing, housing, and transportation, and it was impossible to separate.
"Is that so..."
"Yeah, yeah, why don't you go back and wait a few days, and we'll notify you when we get back."
Uchiha Gin nodded, his tone slightly apologetic.
"Only a few days?"
Otsutsuki Otsutsuki Yueji, who was hanging her head in thought, suddenly asked.
"Won't exceed a week."
Uchiha Gin had already calculated the time the mission would take. Subtracting the time wasted on the road, they shouldn't take long to solve Sunagakure's Tailed Beast problem.
"I know."
After leaving a sentence without a beginning or end, Otsutsuki Otsutsuki Yueji turned and walked into the black hole opened by the Tenseigan. And just before the black hole closed, Uchiha Gin, who was watching his sister-in-law leave, seemed to see the other party look back and smile.
"Saw it wrong, right?"
Uchiha Gin rubbed his eyes, then treated the scene he just saw—the usually stern Otsutsuki Otsutsuki Yueji looking back and smiling—as a sequela of his just using Kamui.
Konoha Commercial Street.
The sky was slightly dim, and the bright round moon had just hung on the treetops. The shops on both sides of the street were brightly lit, and the people strolling on the road were comfortably enjoying the ease brought by peace.
A beautiful figure exuding coldness paced on the bustling street, her pure white eyes curiously examining the shops along the street.
Otsutsuki Otsutsuki Yueji, who had something on her mind, didn't return to her old home on the moon as Uchiha Gin thought, but turned and wandered to the most prosperous commercial street in Konoha.
Although she often descended to the lower realm before, it was all aimed at Uchiha Guang. The two would start fighting as soon as they met and run away after fighting, so she had never really gone shopping properly.
"Sure enough, it's different from what's described in books. Is this the 'smell of fireworks'?"
Looking at the vendors shouting in the night market and the people holding snacks with smiling faces, Otsutsuki Otsutsuki Yueji felt a novelty she had never had before.
Having stayed at home for decades, Otsutsuki Otsutsuki Yueji, even if she had read extensively, had never personally felt the "smell of fireworks" in the human world. Now she was like a fairy who had fallen into the mortal world, full of novelty about everything in front of her.
"Little sister from the Hyuga clan, alone?"
Just as she was looking around curiously, several young men who were clearly idle social personnel surrounded her, each with wide eyes, looking as if they were shocked by heaven.
The moment Otsutsuki Otsutsuki Yueji appeared, they had set their sights on this white-haired woman exuding an unattainable aura.
Even if they judged from the other party's eyes that the woman was from the Hyuga clan, one of Konoha's noble clans, they were still controlled by their lower heads, emboldening themselves to step forward and strike up a conversation.
Hyuga?
Otsutsuki Otsutsuki Yueji frowned upon hearing this. She knew something about the Hyuga clan; the other party was a lineage left on the ground by the Ancestor.
But as the years passed, the Hyuga's immortal bloodline gradually thinned. Compared with their Otsutsuki clan, they were simply poor relatives from the countryside who couldn't be helped.
"I look like the Hyuga clan?"
She could clearly perceive the filthy thoughts of the few young men in front of her, but Otsutsuki Otsutsuki Yueji still asked coldly.
"Oh, little sister is really humorous. Although you dyed your hair white, white eyes won't lie~"
"The young people of the Hyuga clan all have black hair. Little sister, you really understand trends, dyeing such an elegant hair color~"
"That's right, that's right~"
Seeing Otsutsuki Otsutsuki Yueji actually open her mouth to talk to them, the few young men instantly felt they could do it again and spoke up to flatter her.
Otsutsuki Otsutsuki Yueji looked thoughtfully at her soft white hair. In Konoha, white hair wasn't rare, but paired with a pair of white eyes, it looked very eye-catching.
Is white not okay?
"Little sister, we know a good place that young ladies like you have never been to. Do you want to go play?"
Looking at Otsutsuki Otsutsuki Yueji's ignorant performance, the few young men took her as a young lady who had slipped out to experience civilian life and immediately invited her to go "climb the mountain."
"Get lost."
Otsutsuki Otsutsuki Yueji glanced at the few people lightly, opened her mouth, and didn't want to say even half a word more.
The few young men looked at each other. One of them quietly touched the small bag behind his back, which contained their criminal tools—a kind of black tea that could make people fall asleep.
"Little sister, thirsty, right?"
Taking out the yellow-packaged little sweet water, the young man handed it over, the expectation in his eyes growing.
As long as you drink Tadokoro Koji's secret black tea, you'll be at my mercy!
Otsutsuki Otsutsuki Yueji was a bit annoyed by these few bugs. She, who already had some aversion to men, felt even more unhappy in her heart, so she lifted her hand lightly.
It looked like she was about to take the iced black tea, but the "Air Palm" in her palm was ready to go, preparing for physical annihilation.
"Officer! It was them who drugged me and then ruthlessly abandoned me in the toilet!"
Just at this critical moment, a loud shout came from not far away. A woman with an overly "plump" figure pointed at the young men whose schemes had succeeded, and beside her was the security team wearing deep-blue uniforms.
"Surrender! I am arresting you for the crime of attempted molestation of a woman!"
The leader of the security team was a handsome young man with a head full of small curls, looking about eighteen or nineteen years old, exuding a mature temperament that didn't match his age. One look and you could tell he wasn't a new guy who had just joined the job.
"It's the security team, run~"
Seeing the people coming, the few young men were instantly scared out of their wits. They threw away the iced black tea in their hands and turned to run.
"Chase!"
Uchiha Kagami, the current security team leader of the commercial street jurisdiction under the security brigade, immediately greeted his subordinates to follow.
According to reports from the masses, these few suspicious men had recently been wandering around the commercial street, specifically picking lone women to attack.
"Don't be excited! I'm an acquaintance of your father. According to seniority, you should call me uncle~"
Uchiha Gin looked at the vigilant Chiyo, recalling the purple-haired young man who had acted as his desert guide back then. The two chatted quite happily along the way, and the other party almost pulled him to worship as brothers.
"Thump!"
However, as soon as Uchiha Gin finished speaking, the vigilant Chiyo instantly disappeared in place. The next moment, the short staff radiating purple chakra had already pressed against his forehead, and a hoarse voice carrying anger followed.
"Don't try to lie to me, my father passed away long ago, and he never stepped out of the Land of Wind in his life, how could he know a guy like you who is not reliable!"
Actually using her deceased father as an excuse to pick her up, this curly-haired guy was really too annoying!
"Let go of Gin-sama!"
The two guards who were eating melons thought they could watch a big show of a scumbag flirting with a girl, but they didn't expect Chiyo to dare to make a move, so the two who were frightened hurriedly shouted to stop.
"It's okay, the little girl is just playing with me~"
Uchiha Gin waved his hand at the two dedicated guards, signaling not to worry, and then sighed slightly.
"Sigh..."
