Naruto: the Uchiha Rules the World

When Rengoku transferred his consciousness back, his main body had already returned to the Uchiha clan and had gone to see Fugaku, to tell the clan head and the Grand Elder about the deal with Konoha.

"What do you plan to do about the matter with Kumogakure and Iwagakure?"

When Rengoku transferred his consciousness back, Kairen happened to ask this.

He paused for just a second before opening his mouth and said, "Whether it's Iwagakure or Kumogakure, they're just trying to see what kind of attitude we Uchiha have."

"As long as we Uchiha show an attitude, this matter will be resolved. There's no need to fight at all."

"I'll personally go to Kumogakure. As for Iwagakure, Itachi is already there."

Fugaku was a bit surprised, "Itachi isn't in the clan?"

Rengoku froze for a second, then suddenly realized. It might be because after the previous attack on the Uchiha, that fake Itachi had even fooled Fugaku.

He laughed out loud, "The Mangekyo in the clan isn't Itachi. It's him."

As he spoke, from the shadow beneath Rengoku, a shadow stood up.

This shadow was also carrying a huge amount of ocular power and chakra.

Fugaku and Kairen were both dumbfounded, "Your Mangekyo, how come there's another ability?"

Rengoku made a shushing gesture, then opened his mouth and said, "Because I'm a genius."

Fugaku and Kairen were both rendered speechless.

But since Rengoku didn't say anything more, they didn't push it.

"Rengoku, after this matter is over, you should take over as clan head."

Hearing Fugaku say this, Rengoku wasn't surprised at all, he just glanced at Fugaku and Kairen.

Kairen's eyes were also full of approval.

Rengoku chuckled lightly, "What made you come to that conclusion?"

Fugaku nodded firmly, "After I became the clan head, my strength has regressed a lot."

"It's honestly a bit of a waste."

"Ha... well then, let's wait until the recent matters settle down," Rengoku didn't refuse, he accepted it directly.

"Where did Orochimaru go?"

Fugaku replied, "He's at the lab we're building for him. He said there are still a few areas that need modification."

"He's currently there doing planning."

Rengoku nodded slightly, "Since that's the case, I'll go find him myself."

"Tomorrow, once Konoha releases their announcement, I'll depart immediately."

"I don't know when I'll be back, I'll leave a clone at home."

"If anything urgent comes up, just come find me directly."

———

Rengoku arrived at the lab being planned with Orochimaru.

This lab was still being dug downward.

Orochimaru had probably already given his orders and was standing there, thinking about something.

Guren was beside him, holding a notebook and constantly checking things, talking to a few construction personnel nearby.

"Orochimaru."

Orochimaru turned around and confidently looked at Rengoku.

"I guess you brought good news for me."

Rengoku clenched his fist and smiled, "You really saw through it. Within three months, the equipment you requested will be delivered one by one."

Orochimaru's eyes lit up with brilliance, "Good. Where do you plan to start?"

Rengoku looked around, the area was full of his own people.

He just lowered his voice a little, "My sister has been disabled for years, and our clan has many disabled members who've left the combat ranks."

Rengoku directly told Orochimaru what he cared about most.

Orochimaru hadn't expected Rengoku to have such a need.

He thought for a bit, "Oh? If that's the case, there are two methods, one is to stimulate the growth of a cloned body and remove the needed parts from it."

"The other is self-regeneration of limbs."

"The first one requires consuming a lot of resources to stimulate growth, and takes about six months to a year."

"The latter is faster but has a high risk of mutation."

Rengoku didn't hesitate, "Let's go with the first one, stimulate a cloned body."

Orochimaru licked his tongue excitedly in a circle, "You need to be sure, this technique is still immature."

"Creating a clone costs over a hundred million, and if it fails, all that money is gone."

A confident smile appeared on Rengoku's face, "Don't worry about money, I extorted quite a bit from the Third Hokage."

"Besides, in the field of biological science, once the technique matures, the cost will drop exponentially."

"Don't worry, there will be plenty of people paying for this tech in the future," Rengoku pointed in Konoha's direction.

"Any ninja clan, those who've withdrawn from combat due to disability, there are quite a few."

Orochimaru looked Rengoku up and down, a look of interest in his eyes, "You trust me that much?"

Rengoku laughed heartily, "If even you can't perfect this technology, then no one in this world can."

Hearing Rengoku's recognition of him, Orochimaru proudly laughed.

"Then leave this matter to me, once the lab is built, I'll begin right away."

Rengoku felt at ease, "I need to go handle the ones from Iwagakure and Kumogakure who are testing us."

Orochimaru looked at Rengoku with deep eyes, "You Uchiha… are stopping here?"

Rengoku pointed at the nearby construction site, "What do you think?"

"Hahahahaha... as expected of you."

Orochimaru let out an unrestrained laugh.

Rengoku greeted Orochimaru, then left the place.

———

Seeing that it was still early, Rengoku decided to go home for dinner and inform Ryuri and Kaori, since he was about to go far away.

When he arrived at the door of his home, he happened to see a girl walking out of the house.

"Ah, Elder Rengoku..."

"It's Suzuta, huh? Long time no see. But don't call me elder."

The plainly dressed girl with her hair tied up in front of him, was from a herb shop in the clan.

Back then when Ryuri was disabled, they got a lot of medicine from her family's shop.

Suzuta was close in age to Ryuri, and their relationship was very good.

After Rengoku came back, he'd been busy all along. Although it hadn't been that long, so much had happened, he hadn't seen Suzuta in quite some time.

A smile appeared on Suzuta's face, "Alright then, Brother Rengoku, I'm heading back now."

Rengoku still hoped Ryuri could interact more with people, "Why not stay and play a bit longer?"

Suzuta shook her head, "No, I just came to drop something off to Ryuri. The shop can't do without me."

"Then I won't keep you. Come visit often."

Suzuta waved her hand, then ran off with a string of laughter like silver bells.

Rengoku wasn't sure what Suzuta had brought, usually it was Kaori who took care of household supplies.

Sometimes when Suzuta came to see Ryuri, she would bring something along.

If it was medicine, it was probably something for Ryuri's pharmacology studies.

From Ryuri's fragmented memories, Rengoku knew that these past years she'd been studying too.

But he didn't know to what extent Ryuri had learned. Rengoku didn't know either.

When Rengoku entered the house, Ryuri was sitting in her wheelchair, smiling as she looked in his direction.

Clearly, she had heard the conversation between Suzuta and Rengoku outside the door.

"Big Brother..."

"Mm..."

Rengoku walked to Ryuri's side, "What did Suzuta bring?"

Ryuri stuck out her tongue, "It's something Sister Kaori needs, you're not allowed to ask."

Rengoku chuckled, "Alright, alright, I won't ask."

"Rengoku's back? Just in time for dinner," Kaori, wearing an apron, was holding a plate of food and calling out to Rengoku.

Rengoku smiled warmly, "Okay."
