Chapter 105: Developing Forbidden Techniques

"Forbidden Technique: Reanimation Jutsu!"

Hagoromo Gengetsu clapped his hands together, and a coffin emerged from the ground. The lid opened, revealing a familiar figure with whom he had interacted previously.

"Hello again, Danzo."

Hagoromo Gengetsu approached, smiling as he greeted the cracked and deteriorating Reanimation version of Shimura Danzo.

Despite being completely devoured by the underworld in the final battle, Hagoromo Gengetsu had managed to retrieve a significant amount of Danzo's flesh and blood right before his death, making this summoning possible.

As for the sacrifice, the area was never short of bandits and thieves. Although their quality was low, they were sufficient for Hagoromo Gengetsu to practice the Reanimation technique obtained from Konoha's Scroll of Seals.

However, the technique, though successful, was incomplete.

When greeted, the current Shimura Danzo did not furiously curse “the inherently evil Hagoromo Gengetsu.” Instead, he stood silently, like a soulless puppet, staring blankly.

Hagoromo Gengetsu was not surprised.

This was the form that Tobirama Senju’s version of the Reanimation technique should take.

Originally, Tobirama developed this forbidden technique primarily to complement the Mutual Multiplying Explosive Tags technique.

After obtaining the Reanimation technique, Orochimaru spent many years further developing and refining it, resulting in the perfected version seen during the Chunin Exams.Ne/w novel chapters are published at novelhall.com

Fortunately, although Hagoromo Gengetsu did not possess the final version, Tobirama’s version was sufficient for his current needs.

After allowing Shimura Danzo to disperse on his own, Hagoromo Gengetsu summoned another coffin. This time, it was himself who emerged from within.

More precisely, a fragment of his own soul from the underworld responded to the Reanimation summoning, appearing in the real world.

Looking at the Reanimation version of himself, which was identical except for the surface cracks and vacant eyes, Hagoromo Gengetsu stroked his chin in thought.

Due to the nature of the Reanimation technique, his soul fragment could easily transition from the underworld to the present world. However, fully extracting it to completely restore his soul without any consequences was not an easy task.

To some extent, the soul fragment in the underworld had already become an independent entity, beyond his control.

Hagoromo Gengetsu thought of another technique he had learned from the Scroll of Seals: the Reaper Death Seal.

This was the only technique specifically designed to forcibly extract an enemy’s soul from their body.

Hagoromo Gengetsu had considered the possibility of using the Reaper to withstand the pressures of the underworld and extract the soul from the Reanimation body before heading to Konoha.

As a three-tomoe Uchiha Jōnin, even the elite Jōnin of the five great ninja villages would struggle to match him one-on-one.

As for why none of the Uchiha who survived the massacre night had awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan, the answer was simple. Even experiencing the massacre night, the reincarnation of Indra only awakened a single tomoe out of anger, let alone them.

Awakening the Mangekyō required not only strong emotional stimulation but also a certain talent.

Otherwise, during the Warring States Period, when countless close friends and relatives died, the Uchiha did not all awaken the Mangekyō.

If that were the case, the Senju clan would have been wiped out, and Konoha would never have been established.

"I’m going."

After waiting for a while, seeing Sasuke finish his training, Uchiha Kei greeted Uchiha Izumi and was about to step onto the field.

Suddenly!

A suppressed scream of pain echoed in the training ground.

Uchiha Izumi and Uchiha Kei’s expressions changed as they quickly looked over.

They saw Sasuke kneeling on the ground, his body curled up in pain.

"What is that?" Uchiha Kei noticed the strange black markings rapidly covering Sasuke's body.

As Sasuke’s mentor, Uchiha Izumi, knowing much about him, frowned and said, "That’s a cursed seal. Orochimaru specifically placed it on Sasuke."

"The same Orochimaru who covets Uchiha power?"

With the information from Lock Front Village, Uchiha Kei, knowing that Orochimaru had previously invited Sasuke, snorted. If it weren’t for Hagoromo Gengetsu, Sasuke would likely have gone to Orochimaru.

Uchiha Izumi didn’t respond further.

At this moment, she had already quickly arrived beside Sasuke, immediately examining the cursed seal on his neck and the increasingly weak seal around it, her brow furrowing.

"Is the Evil Sealing Method losing its effectiveness?"

"Kei, let’s restrain Sasuke first."

Seeing Sasuke losing control under the influence of the cursed seal, Uchiha Izumi prepared to act, her face serious.

Uchiha Kei, arriving shortly after, nodded in agreement.

"No need, I’ll handle this."

Hagoromo Gengetsu suddenly appeared, looking at Sasuke, who was exuding an ominous aura, and spoke calmly.
