Chapter 43: Return to Clan Territory

"There are almost no side effects, but it requires both physical and mental energy."
Then he backhanded the [Rasengan] onto the iron plate nearby, which was where Germa 66 tested weapons.
The [Rasengan] directly penetrated the iron plate, and the blast's impact broke through the wall behind it as well.
"[Lightning Release: Chidori]."
Next, he demonstrated [Chidori], this time cutting through an iron plate.
"[Fire Release: Phoenix Sage Fire]."
Then he used fire techniques with nature transformation to directly melt the iron plate.
"That covers the basics," Yami concluded.
"This energy can be converted into fire, wind, earth, lightning, and water. It also has some special attributes."
"Help improve the Uchiha bloodline for us, and I can pass this power on to you."
Yami began his persuasion.
What he had done before was coercion, but now he offered something that Judge desperately wanted and would treasure.
This man had to work hard and dedicate himself to their clan.
Only through both coercion and incentive could people be completely convinced.
"Understood," Judge exclaimed with fervor.
"Germa 66 will definitely follow your path and advance along with you,"
Judge felt like he could already see the new dawn.
‘This power must be obtained…’

He then carefully studied the blood samples from Itachi and Izumi.
Simultaneously, he arranged plans for Raid suit production and formulated a list of materials that needed to be purchased.
Yami also informed him that he would take him away, leaving Reiju to manage affairs.
Judge had no objections because proper research required more information.
Without sufficient data, he couldn't analyze everything clearly using only two people's blood samples.
After that, Yami stayed another five days, allowing Judge to pack the various research equipment he needed to transport.
Now that everything was organized, the total volume amounted to approximately ten cubic meters.
Yami used prepared sealing scrolls to store these items.
Judge was dumbfounded, witnessing this.
When he learned this was something chakra could accomplish, he couldn't wait to begin working and obtain this power called chakra as soon as possible.
Previously, Yami naturally couldn't seal so many items, but now, with enhanced chakra and scrolls used by the Uchiha clan for relocations, he could fit everything with room to spare.
He even grabbed a batch of Germa 66 weapons.
"Stay in the North Blue during this time, and don't venture into the Grand Line," Yami instructed Reiju.
"If you encounter anything you can't handle, contact me via Den-Den Mushi. I should be able to arrive within a day."
"Yes, Yamikage-san," Reiju had abandoned any thoughts of resistance by now.
Everyone remaining alive was already fortunate, and she truly harbored no ambitions, simply maintaining her family's position in North Blue.
Yami, for an extra measure, placed a genjutsu on the three brothers, making them obey Reiju's orders unconditionally.
Judge himself also gave instructions to his three sons as double insurance.
There wasn't much development potential in North Blue, and Yami wasn't there to make money.
If Germa 66 could maintain the status quo, which was already excellent, he didn't want excessive complications.
"Let's go!" After Yami finished speaking, he activated the Susanoo directly.
He took Itachi, Izumi, and Judge with him, flying directly skyward toward the Uchiha clan territory.
Judge was filled with excitement.
“Is this also related to Chakra besides the bloodline?”
Flying itself didn't particularly impress Judge; he was naturally familiar with such capabilities.
However, being inside the Susanoo thrilled him.
Yami had already said before that the Susano was a bloodline ability. But it still relied on chakra to manifest.
"Chakra provides the energy, but there must be this converter, the Mangekyō Sharingan beyond three-tomoe," Yami explained.
"You can treat the Sharingan like a Devil Fruit, except this 'fruit' can be inherited through bloodline. When we reach our territory, I'll share more information to enhance your research."
Yami replied, focusing mainly on bloodline origins and how the Senju clan could compensate for certain deficiencies.
When the time came, he'd fabricate a roughly similar explanation.
This research couldn't be completed quickly anyway.
When he could return to the ninja world, he'd bring Judge along to continue research there.
"Yes." Judge was extremely excited and couldn't wait.
Almost a day later, they returned to the Uchiha homeland.
When clan members saw the Susanoo slowly descending from the sky, they all felt tremendous pride.
The sky was slightly brighter, and early morning had arrived.
Yami found Fugaku and explained Judge's situation, and immediately cleared space for him to install research equipment.
Simultaneously, Yami used his Sharingan to construct a genjutsu, informing Judge about the Uchiha and Senju clans' circumstances, plus specific details about the Uchiha bloodline classifications.
"Are there no survivors left in the Senju clan?" After recovering his senses and contemplating, Judge couldn't help asking Yami.
This was his first exposure to such concepts, that bloodlines could complement each other.
It felt like Devil Fruit side effects from Seastone and seawater disappearing directly due to bloodline complementarity.
Similarly, he sensed that Yami possessed considerable information he hadn't shared yet, but Judge didn't pursue it, understanding his position.
"There are survivors, but not accessible now. Within a year, I'll find Senju clan research material for your study," Yami replied.
"However, if you don't demonstrate your worth, this research won't concern you."
"The most basic requirement is discovering the bloodline power differences between ordinary Sharingan and Mangekyō. Consider this your assessment."
After the war, if the Uchiha clan members could learn Armament Haki and grow physically stronger, he would choose to return to the ninja world.
Yami wanted to eliminate Konoha in one decisive strike, then rebuild directly on-site.
He didn't want to destroy Konoha only to return here afterward.
So, he was prepared to wait before taking action.
He had considered whether he should sneak back first and obtain the First Hokage cells to awaken his Rinnegan.
However, the current First Hokage cells had side effects.
After use, a First Hokage face appeared on the chest, which Yami found somewhat unacceptable.
He planned to have Orochimaru develop milder First Hokage cells, the type Kabuto used for Sasuke during the Fourth Ninja War, which was relatively gentle, and he was prepared to use those.
For the next mission he had, he felt he wouldn't need the Rinnegan power.
Comparatively, returning to the ninja world carried risks.
After all, blocking all the revived folks felt difficult.
There were also two cunning people, Black Zetsu and Otsutsuki Hagoromo, requiring vigilance.
"Yes, I will definitely succeed and report as quickly as possible,” Judge exclaimed when he heard about the Senju clan cells.
He felt completely confident about Yami's requirements.
After all, he had studied for many years and nearly mastered this world's human lineage factors before enhancing his four sons.
Although those were failures, they proved this matter's feasibility.
He then began working earnestly, analyzing the continuous data flowing from machines processing the blood samples.
