RoU Chapter 174: When Grandpa Wants to Sell You, but You're Already Taken
🕑 Added 2024-01-20 18:54:11 +0000 UTCIn the sky, that swiftly flying little old man is known by almost everyone in the shinobi world.
Natsuo had an expression filled with disbelief. 'Are you just passing this problem on to me?'
According to the agreement between Kakuzu and Natsuo, any problems caused by the transaction should be resolved by Natsuo.
In theory, the current trouble should be borne by himself...
But to complete the transaction one second and have trouble come the next second, isn't that a bit too fast?
"Ah." Natsuo covered his head, feeling that Kakuzu's level of after-sales service still needed improvement.
Meanwhile...
"It was you who took away my granddaughter?" Onoki had an angry expression on his face, his clothes fluttering in the wind, exuding a bit of imposing aura. But the next second, his pupils contracted.
"Natsuo? You're here too?!" His expression changed, quickly becoming vigilant, looking around with a guarded face.
"Is this a Konoha conspiracy, trying to lure me out and kill me?"
"Well, it seems like you people of Konoha really think you can get arrogant just because a powerful shinobi has appeared..." He laughed angrily. "Natsuo, don't think you're Uchiha Madara!"
But saying that, his small eyes were constantly alert, waiting for the ambush of the Konoha people.
He had already fallen into the trap, and facing eyes similar to Uchiha Madara, Onoki was also panicking inwardly.
However, Natsuo waved his hand and said: "No, it has nothing to do with Konoha, I didn't intend to fight you either."
"Isn't this a Konoha conspiracy?" Onoki frowned, looking skeptical.
"No." Natsuo replied calmly.
"Then can you return my granddaughter to me?" Onoki pointed at Kurotsuchi. "This useless granddaughter of mine, I appreciate your concern... Although I don't know what she did to offend you, I will definitely punish her severely when I go back."
At first, Onoki was furious, with an expression of 'Whoever dares to touch my granddaughter, I will kill his entire family.'
But now his expression suddenly changed, his voice softened, and his tone became extremely gentle.
There's no way. This is the power of the number one person in the shinobi world.
Onoki did not consider himself weaker than the Raikage. But the problem is that the Raikage and the Eight-Tails, along with thousands of shinobi, were defeated by Natsuo. Even if he had confidence, he wouldn't think that he has surpassed the combination of the Raikage, the Jinchuriki, and thousands of troops.
Especially with thousands of troops, only a few Elite Jonin managed to escape in the end. So many people couldn't even escape.
Natsuo's power is definitely much stronger than it appears on paper.
Looking at Onoki's timid appearance, and even though she was tied up and struggling when she saw Onoki, Kurotsuchi's face was full of disbelief as she looked up in disappointment.
"Oh, there's no need for that." Natsuo waved his hand. "I won't let her go."
"Sure enough, it's a conspiracy by Konoha!" Onoki's expression changed drastically, and a burning anger could be seen in his eyes.
The speed at which his expression changed was astonishing, even Kakuzu next to him sighed in amazement.
"Natsuo, it seems like you really think you're invincible." Onoki's voice was low. "Even Uchiha Madara didn't dare to recklessly bully Iwagakure. Who gave you the courage to be so unscrupulous?"
Natsuo couldn't help but glance at Onoki. At the same time he said in his mind: 'When you mention that not even Uchiha Madara dared to bully Iwagakure, are you referring to the incident where he almost beat you to death in front of the Second Tsuchikage?'
"Ah, you're thinking too much." Natsuo sighed lightly. "The reason I won't let her go is not for the reason you think. This gentleman Kakuzu already sold your granddaughter to me as my future wife, so now she is mine."
"Oh, don't worry, I don't forbid my wives from visiting their families. You still have a chance to see Kurotsuchi..."
Onoki: "...?"
Kurotsuchi: "...?"
Both of them were stunned at the same time.
Onoki murmured: "So you're here to buy a wife?"
"Yes." Natsuo said calmly.
"Not a conspiracy by Konoha?"
"You've already felt it, right? It's just us around here."
Onoki looked confused, he got so scared he thought he was having a heart attack, and it turns out it was all because he wanted Kurotsuchi to become his wife?
For a woman?
Even Kurotsuchi couldn't help but be confused. She didn't know what had happened and the cloth in her mouth slipped. From what she could be heard murmuring: "Has my charm spread from Iwagakure to Konohagakure?"
"Even the legendary number one shinobi in the world would bow down to me, at the cost of hiring others to bring me over..."
'This is simply the treatment that only a femme fatale would receive! How come I didn't realize I was so beautiful?' Perhaps it was a bit of a girlish thought, but she actually blushed and acted coy.
Onoki knew his granddaughter too well. Seeing her like this, his face turned dark. But he still landed slowly and said to Natsuo: "Natsuo, stop joking. Konohagakure and Iwagakure are still at war!"
"If you really like my granddaughter, why don't you come with me to Iwagakure?"
Onoki's eyes flickered, his tone sincere. "We in Iwagakure are different from Konoha. We warmly welcome the Uchiha clan."
Then it was Kurotsuchi's turn to have a dark expression on her face. She knew her grandfather too well. This was clearly a plan to sell her off and leave Natsuo behind!
That's right! Onoki had exactly that idea in mind.
For politicians like Onoki and Rasa. What does a woman mean? Even if she is their own daughter or granddaughter, to them nothing is more important than being able to attract a major power to their village.
Moreover, it's just getting married, not forcing their daughter or granddaughter to die directly.
Even if they die, it's not something completely unacceptable. Can't they continue to have more children?
Rasa is young and strong, and it won't lead to the end of his bloodline. Although Onoki can't have children, his son Kitsuchi is still in his prime. They can just have another child.
In a turbulent world like the Shinobi World. Onoki and the others would not think that their own daughter or granddaughter could live a carefree life.
However, Natsuo shook his head: "Sorry, I still think it's most comfortable to stay in Konoha..."
Onoki persisted: "What can Konoha give you? We in Iwagakure can give you twice as much!"
Natsuo (→_→): "Tsunade is already pregnant with my child, and we previously had a daughter... Yes, the girl who awakened the Wood Release."
"This is what Konoha can give me, can you?" Onoki was suddenly speechless.
Unless he undergoes god-tier special modification, there's no way an old man like him can give birth to a child with Natsuo!
Even if he was willing, Natsuo wouldn't want to.
But...
"Is that girl who possesses the Wood Release your daughter?" Onoki widened his eyes.
"Yes." Natsuo nodded.
Onoki's face turned pale.
Like the leaders of Konoha's shinobi clans, Onoki's initial reaction upon learning that Tsunade's daughter possessed the Wood Release at such a young age was to get rid of her.
But just as they were arranging the manpower, the next second, they quickly canceled this mission.
Not for anything else, but for the internal strife within Konoha.
The Wood Release Senju and the Uchiha Mangekyo are like archenemies.
Although Tsunade's daughter is still young, she can completely serve as hope to counter Uchiha Natsuo.
They hope that Konoha will have another story like Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara. Back then, if it weren't for the clash of ideals between these two major powers, they would have joined forces and annihilated the four great shinobi villages.
Now Natsuo is exerting his dominance over the Shinobi World, and he needs a Senju to restrain him.
Even if Hikari is a baby, and still can't contain Natsuo and ends up being killed by him before growing up, it doesn't matter.
At that time, as a mother, can't Tsunade target the Uchiha clan for revenge? After all, she is the Hokage.
When the time comes, even if Konoha doesn't want to, there will be an internal conflict...
But now you're telling me that the baby we had high hopes for is Natsuo's daughter?
"Speaking of which, there seems to be a rumor in Konoha that Tsunade and Natsuo have met before..." Onoki's face turned pale.
"Oh, the rumors are true." Natsuo nodded.
Onoki's heart sank completely.
Well, there goes the hope of internal conflict in Konoha, and the hope of luring Natsuo to Iwagakure is also gone. Even if Iwagakure tries their best, they won't be able to attract Natsuo...
"Natsuo, give my granddaughter back to me. I can pretend today's events never happened." Onoki, with a heart full of despair, lost his previous gentleness in his tone.
"I'm sorry, I already said it. She can't leave. She will be my future wife..." Natsuo smiled faintly.
Onoki's aura became oppressive. "Are you really unwilling to let go of my granddaughter?"
"I don't have the habit of letting go of my own women." Natsuo said with a smile.
"Even if it causes a war between Iwagakure and Konohagakure?" Onoki's voice suddenly rose. "Natsuo, don't think that the ongoing war has weakened Iwagakure."
"In fact, Iwagakure has always had reserve capacity and does not want to go to an all-out war against Konoha. We have not yet fully committed all our troops..."
"The number of Iwa shinobi we can actually mobilize are far from what you see now!"
Upon hearing this, Natsuo calmly glanced at Onoki.
Onoki's voice abruptly stopped. His threats were effective against almost anyone, but not against Natsuo. Because Natsuo had really wiped out most of the forces in the Kumogakure fortress.
He wasn't afraid to face the great Kumogakure army, so would he be afraid of the great Iwagakure army?
It's just a matter of a few more hits...
"If you want to fight, then go ahead." Natsuo sighed. "Honestly, I don't really want to fight with my wife's grandfather..."
"But if you insist on picking a fight, I have no choice."
"Fine! Fine! Fine!" Onoki laughed angrily. "Let me see if you, Uchiha Natsuo, are worthy of the title of the world's strongest shinobi."
The next second...
Onoki formed a small cube, with a white sphere, between the palms of his hands.
Dust Release is a Kekkei Tota, an advanced version of the kekkei genkai, and considered one of the most powerful ninjutsu in the shinobi world. Its power is so strong that countless other ninjutsu pale in comparison.
"Dust Release: Detachment of the Primitive World Technique!"
However, just when the structure was about to expand...
A hand grabbed Onoki's wrist from the side.
"Hey, hey, even if you're angry, don't attack like that." Natsuo sighed lightly. "Your own granddaughter is still here."
Onoki's pupils suddenly shrank. 'How did this guy get close?...'
Onoki's expression changed slightly, and he involuntarily canceled the ninjutsu he was about to cast.
Then he suddenly broke free of the grip and brought his palms together again.
"Dust Release: Detachment of the Primitive World Technique!"
A huge white light flickered, and the white structure expanded instantly.
However, Natsuo smiled lightly, dodging to the side, perfectly avoiding the structure.
[Boom!]
The Dust Release failed, leaving a deep imprint on the ground behind Natsuo!
Onoki took the opportunity to fly into the sky.
"Natsuo, why don't you try using Susanoo?" Onoki's voice was proud. "Or maybe you already know..."
"The Dust Release is something that not even Uchiha Madara's Susanoo could resist!"
"Dust Release: Detachment of the Primitive World Technique!"
[Whoosh!]
A white light flickered.
However, Natsuo still evaded him in anticipation.
Natsuhiko raised his head slightly, his expression strange. "Hmm, Susanoo really can't withstand it..."
Susanoo's defense is astonishing, but no matter how astonishing it is, there are limits.
And the destructive power of the Dust Release is truly unbeatable, its attack intensity even surpassing the realm of Ninjutsu, becoming a terrifying technique similar to a rule-based power.
Anything hit by this technique will instantly be split into atoms.
It is a ninjutsu that theoretically nothing can resist.
But...
"You still have to hit someone first." Natsuo sighed lightly. "It's really difficult for you to hit me with your skills."
Onoki's expression became slightly embarrassed upon hearing this.
Yes, that's the weakness of the Dust Release.

Does he get stronger from grandchildren, too?
