On the application of plant zombies in the world of Naruto

"Gong, why are you here?"

The somewhat haggard Uchiha Kyou looked back.

"Ah, Haoyi, Happy New Year."

"I think something is wrong with you. What's wrong? Great Elder..."

"Well, grandpa...maybe he sensed something, so he asked me to buy these."

Haoyi didn't say anything, just patted Gong's shoulder.

"If you have something to say, please tell me."

"Well, thanks."

The great elder Uchiha Zhangren fell ill after the winter. I went to see him and it turned out that he was just old and had aged naturally.

It's a weakness that cannot be cured by medicine.

In a trance, Zhang Ren seemed to have anticipated it, and while he was still conscious, he asked Gong to prepare the coffin and clothes first.

The closer I got to that step, the more my previous fear of death disappeared without a trace.

Years ago, when he gradually became unable to cope with the situation, he let Gong slowly take over his duties from him, and he was still in charge of the clan's defense formation and the care of the eye bank.

Fortunately, Gong has some talent in sealing formations, and he has been working behind Zhang Ren since he was a child. Although he was busy for a few days after taking over, he was able to hand over the work smoothly.

Knowing that Zhang Ren was dying, the Tajima family also came to visit. The two families had frequent interactions, and the great-grandson of the eldest elder was also a good friend of Kyojuro.

The Great Elder's residence was filled with a strong smell of medicine.

Although he knew that life and death were predetermined by heaven and that knowing life and death made one realize how valuable time was, Kyojuro still felt a little heavy-hearted.

He is worried about You.

There is also the uncontrollable sadness of the impending departure of a loved one.

……

Yuu knelt down next to Akihito, and Kyojuro was also there.

Zhang Ren was sober today, he smiled and said,

"It's Kyojuro."

Seeing his great-grandson's face tense and looking like he was about to cry, Zhang Ren comforted him,

"I died of old age, which is very rare for a ninja."

He stroked his hair and said with a smile,

“You have to learn to accept death.”

“It is precisely because of death that humans know how to cherish and make this short life as brilliant as possible.”

"Birth, aging, sickness and death, grandpa is about to take the next step. Grandpa's life is finally complete."

"You, and Gong,"

Zhang Ren saw the shadow of Gong behind the shoji door and raised his voice slightly.

"I feel blessed to have wonderful children like you."

Zhang Ren's eyes gradually became distant.

The Land of Lightning, his hometown, the Land of Fire, where he lived and worked hard,

They were a couple who had their children die young. After their son passed away, his wife also passed away. He raised his grandson by himself and watched his great-grandson grow up.

He watched the Uchiha people go from panic to strength, from war to stability.

He has no regrets in his life.

Kyojuro looked at the great elder, whose weakness was hard to conceal but whose eyes were firm and gentle, and it was as if he saw his mother on the hospital bed again.

Even though they are of different genders and live in different worlds, they all have a strong heart.

The next day, Zhang Ren died.

You opened his eyes in the mourning hall, but he was not happy at all.

If the price of the Sharingan he longed for was the departure of his great-grandfather, he would rather remain blind for the rest of his life.

In the evening, Kyojuro came to see him.

He didn't say anything, just hugged her.

Yu buried his head in Kyojuro's shoulder.

"Kyojuro, I know that my great-grandfather died of natural causes. He was smiling when he passed away, just like he was sleeping. He didn't feel any pain at all..."

"But…"

"But…"

“…I don’t have a great-grandfather.”

He didn't want to cry, but for some reason, when he got home and saw the recliner that his great-grandfather liked,

Suddenly I couldn't control my tears.

It was obvious that my great-grandfather would always sit on the recliner, slowly calculating the sealing formation, and when I got close to him, he would take out some candy from his pocket and give it to me.

But now, the recliner is still there, the candies in the cupboard are still there, but great-grandfather is gone.

Kyojuro didn't say anything, he just hugged You and helped him to sort out his surging tears.

After an unknown amount of time, You wiped his tears, stood up, and made up his mind.

"I will definitely grow up well and become an excellent Uchiha so that Grandpa won't have to worry about me!"

"I will always be proud of my great grandfather!"

Kyojuro patted Yu's shoulder.

“You can do it!”

------

After the spring,

Kaguya Yoshiyuki is also fine,

Gained 8 pounds.

Uchiha Shin wanted to drive him out of the pharmacy with a scalpel in hand.

Uchiha Madara and the Kaguya clan leader had another fight, leaving Kyojuro to watch.

Because he had the idea of ​​teaching, Uchiha Madara did not open his Sharingan this time, but used basic physical skills and swordsmanship to fight with Kaguya Kayuki.

Of course, Kaguya Kayuki did not use the Corpse Bone Vein's ultimate move, but instead used the bones that suddenly appeared as hidden weapons and wanted to attack.

Kyojuro was absorbing knowledge crazily with Jin, who came to attend the class desperately.

Madara used his right hand to hold the knife to get rid of Kaguya's bones, and then used his backhand to slash.

Kaguya Yoshiyuki pulled out the second rib on the right side, seized the gap and aimed directly at the throat.

Uchiha Madara flipped back and broke Kaguya Kayuki's bones with one kick.

Kaguya Kayuki leaned forward and pushed the ground, reaching out to grab Uchiha Madara's ankle. Seeing that the distance was not enough, she quickly twisted her body, and bone spurs emerged from her palm.

stab-

It tore the hem of Uchiha Madara's clan uniform.

Uchiha Madara stepped directly on the bone and used the force to jump up. Kaguya Kayuki immediately had bone spurs emerge from her back. Uchiha Madara stabbed her several times from high above in the air, and the knife and bone made a clanging sound when they touched.

Watching Uchiha Madara and Kaguya Kayuki fighting in close combat, Kyojuro suddenly realized how he should modify his attack methods.

He got it!

He drew out a wooden sword from the side, and matched the footwork of the Uchiha clan when they were sprinting. He jumped up with the help of the low wall, and stabbed eight times from top to bottom quickly. The fireball released by the sword technique was split into eight parts. Following the direction of the stabbing of the sword tip,

————!

Eight charred pits appeared on the targeted ground.

Kyojuro breathed a sigh of relief.

Breath of Flame - Seventh Form - Flame of the End of the Year

It took a year in total to finally take shape.

Uchiha Madara and Kaguya Kayuki's sparring had stopped at some point. Uchiha Madara squatted down, touched the dirt pit in the yard, and asked Jin,

"This move was originally a single shot?"

Jin Chao answered loudly,

"Yes! It can directly break a tree when fired alone."

"Although the single-target attack power has decreased, the number of attacks that can be made has increased, which can better protect yourself in a melee."

Looking at the move performed by Kyojuro, Uchiha Madara nodded with some satisfaction.

My nephew is good in every way, but for some reason he only uses Ninja Sword Techniques to target a single target's neck.

Every battlefield is a one-on-one fight that follows the rules.

Now that we have this ninja sword technique that can attack multiple people at the same time, it can be said that it makes up for the shortcomings in this area.

Kaguya Yoshiyuki looked at Kyojuro in amazement.

Either the Uchiha clan is strong, or there have always been generations of talented strong people in the clan. It would be great if Kaguya could also raise talented little kids to adulthood.

Wait, because of the Corpse Bone Vein of their Hyuga clan, the stronger the talents, the earlier they will develop the disease. Now we have Uchiha’s special medicine!

Kaguya Kayuki slapped his thigh, his youngest son was saved!

Action speaks louder than words, Kaguya Kayuki immediately invited,

"Look, the New Year is over. When are you going to visit our tribe? Didn't you say before that you wanted to go explore something?"

After hearing this, Jin tactfully said goodbye to Kyojuro and left.

Uchiha Madara saw his nephew's expectant look and stroked his chin.

"Then I'll go back and ask my father. After we decide on the team members, we'll set off as soon as possible."

……

The land of the Kaguya clan.

"Chief! Are you going back...?"

Brother Kaguya, who was guarding the clan gate, had just excitedly waved to his clan leader who was said to have been receiving treatment at the Uchiha Hospital for several months, when he saw a group of Uchiha behind the clan leader.

"… Clan leader? You're going to lead the Uchiha to fight Kaguya?"

Kaguya-san's off-line remarks earned him a successful attack from Kaguya Yoshiyuki.

"I invited him to help. Go away."

"Uchiha clan leader, please."

Uchiha Tajima was also in the team, just to confirm on the spot whether the crystal ball he bought was useful.

Kaguya Yoshiyuki had asked his wife to move all the clansmen away from the cemetery in advance, and he led the Uchiha people directly into the cemetery.

The members of the Kaguya clan, who were unaware of the evil spirit possessing Kaguya, were completely confused.

What are the people from the Uchiha family doing here at Kaguya’s cemetery?

Do you want to dig some bones of the Hyuga clan from the cemetery and use them as weapons? ?

The Uchiha family is so poor that they can’t even afford a sword?

Here, the Uchiha people surrounded Kyojuro and watched him inspect Kaguya's grave which had been dug up.

As soon as the coffin was opened, Kyojuro once again sensed that obscure, dark, and sticky smell.

There is no doubt that the evil spirit attached to Kaguya's body is the same evil spirit that tampered with the Uchiha stone slab.

But now, the evil ghost has long left the corpse.

Uchiha Tajima saw Kyojuro nodded at him, and the boy holding the crystal ball shook his head at him.

He was completely heartbroken, he spent a lot of money to buy a piece of junk.

He asked, "How did you find his body?"

Kaguya Yoshiyuki and his wife looked at each other and roughly figured out the evil spirit's movements.

Kaguya Kotobuki died somewhere outside the clan territory because of a mission. The evil spirit took over the body before corpse spots appeared on it and sent a mission to Kaguya Yoshiyuki.

After Kaguya Yoshiyuki was captured by the Uchiha clan, he controlled Kaguya Yoshiyuki's body and came to the Uchiha clan to inquire about the situation.

Finally, they abandoned Kaguya Yan's body, which was found by a passing Kaguya member and brought back to the Kaguya tribe's territory.

(This is just their speculation. In fact, Black Zetsu can directly possess living people, but the black part will appear on the body of the controlled person. Kaguya was possessed while alive. After Black Zetsu finished his work, in order to avoid Kaguya's return and expose his existence, Black Zetsu killed Kaguya)

After Kaguya Yoshiyuki finished her speculation, Kyojuro came up with an idea.

"I want to go to the place where you found the body. It should be not far from here."

"It's not far. I'll take you there."

Fortunately, Kaguya Yoshiyuki was only face-blind, not directionally challenged, and they successfully walked to a forest about thirty miles away from the Kaguya clan's territory.

"This is it," Kaguya Kaguya said, pointing to an empty space.

"Ayan's body was here before."

Kyojuro's heart trembled, and he immediately squatted down and touched the ground with his hand.

Last time in Uchiha, he also sensed that aura on the ground in an empty corner, and it was the same this time.

Could it be that this evil spirit is moving in the soil?

Following his own perception, he walked forward another twenty meters.

The breath gradually became lighter until...

It's broken.

Kyojuro looked around carefully again and found no special traces. Even the fallen leaves on the ground showed no signs of having been stepped on.

There were very few animal footprints and feces around.

After all, this place is not far from the Ninja family, and the animals were probably hunted and eaten.

It seems that the evil ghost was really moving in the ground. After leaving Kaguya Yan's body, it gradually disappeared into the ground.

Because the depth was deep enough, he could no longer sense it.

Kyojuro stood up, dusted off his hands, and smiled at Kaguya Kayuki.

"Don't worry, the ghost has left."

Kaguya Yoshiyuki let out a long sigh, "It's okay to leave. Then let's go back and have a meal? Take a rest?"

Uchiha Tajima shook his head, "No, let's go back first."

Kaguya Yoshiyuki also understood Tajima's caution, so she didn't stay any longer. But when they were about to leave, she stuffed a little Kaguya doll into the Uchiha team.

Looking at this five-year-old child, Uchiha Tajima raised his eyebrows.

"This is?"

Kaguya Yoshiyuki smiled innocently, "My little son, well, between us..."

He winked and said, "...right, this is a guarantee."

Uchiha Tajima was amused. It seemed that this guy wanted to finalize the cooperation in advance. Maybe he could even let his son enjoy the special medicine first.

Kaguya Yoshiyuki was afraid that Uchiha would reject her, so she immediately changed her expression and started to play the victim.

"This child is too talented. If he doesn't use your Uchiha's special medicine, he may not live past the age of six. He is five years old this year."

He wiped away his tears fiercely.

"Don't worry, you can treat it as you like. If you can't cure it, it's the child's life. It won't affect the relationship between our two tribes. Feel free to come to us if you have any missions in the future."

Xiao Hui Yefeng immediately cooperated with his father and hugged Uchiha Tajima's thighs, but his eyes, flashing with pleading, were fixed on Kyojuro, who seemed to be the most talkative in the team.

Kyojuro, who had always attacked others with his eyes, was used the same trick on himself for the first time.

"Okay," Uchiha Tajima picked up Kaguya Fuuya who was still trying to act pitiful.

"I've accepted your son's letter. If you have anything to say, write to me. If you want to come and see me, just write a visiting card in advance."

"Uh-huh!"

Kaguya Yoshiyuki and his youngest son made eye contact, and the father and son were connected by heart.

"Son, don't blame your dad. I did this just to keep you alive. Kyojuro is a good guy. You must hold on to him!"

"Dad, I understand! Don't worry!"
