Chapter 56 - Chapter 56: Doubts

The appearance of White Zetsu and the intelligence received from Hiruzen Sarutobi made Yuuki clearly realize that Obito's target was him, and Yuuki knew that he could not avoid it.

Although he didn't really want to face Tuzi Ge so early, he had at least awakened the Mangekyo Sharingan.

He still had some confidence, and even if he really encountered Obito, it wouldn't be a big problem, probably.

The appearance of White Zetsu not only made Yuuki nervous.

Hiruzen Sarutobi, who also learned about the situation from the Anbu and obtained two White Zetsu bodies, did not go home directly, even though there was no one at home.

"Kakashi, Yun Jian, have you two not noticed anything unusual?"

"No, Hokage-sama." x 2

Yun Jian is a Ninja of the Hyuga Clan. As mentioned before, as long as it's a prominent family, Hiruzen Sarutobi will basically have his people there.

As one of Konoha's top noble clans, it was impossible for the Hokage not to control the power of the Hyuga Clan.

Hiruzen Sarutobi frowned deeply after receiving the answer.

When he decided to reject Hidden Mist's conditions, the Hidden Mist envoy was sold off by him as a gesture of goodwill towards the Uchiha.

He didn't expect such an existence to appear from the favor he sold – a perfect transformation jutsu, undetectable even by fellow Hidden Mist companions.

The two most famous ocular jutsu in the Ninja World, the Sharingan and Byakugan, couldn't detect any abnormalities.

This made Hiruzen Sarutobi worry about the outcome of the war. Besides Hidden Mist, it seemed there were even more deeply hidden enemies.

This strange creature had a human form but was not human. Konoha had no previous records of it.

"Could it be the product of some human experiment?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi couldn't help but ponder in his heart.

Afterward, Hiruzen Sarutobi arranged for Ninja in the village who were skilled in research to study the two White Zetsu overnight.

Konoha's capabilities were naturally incomparable to Yuuki's small research lab.

With complete experimental equipment and sufficient researchers, preliminary results were quickly obtained.

"Hokage-sama, these two special humanoid creatures simultaneously exhibit characteristics of both animals and plants."

"From the dissection results, this creature has no internal organs and does not require breathing or eating."

"The Chakra attributes of the two differ, but there are also similarities. If they were Ninja, they would both possess astonishing Earth and Water Release talents."

"At the same time, cellular analysis revealed that they are similar to..."

At this point, the Ninja became somewhat hesitant.

"Discover what? Continue."

"Hokage-sama, it was found that some characteristics of their cells are very similar to the First Hokage's cells in the records, but due to the lack of First Hokage cells, it cannot be confirmed for now. However, according to the data, there are astonishing similarities between the two."

Hiruzen Sarutobi also became less composed at this moment.

"What?! Are you sure?! Similar to the First Hokage's cells?"

"Uh, not sure, it's just the data showing similarity, Hokage-sama, I don't know... that... First Hokage's cells?"

It must be said that all researchers, when encountering novel things, have their IQ instantly boosted, but their EQ...

Hiruzen Sarutobi gave the researcher a cold glance, and the chill in his eyes instantly calmed the researcher down.

"Hokage-sama, I apologize, I was a bit out of line just now."

"It's alright, you've worked hard. Remember to keep the research results confidential."

"Yes, Hokage-sama, I'll take my leave now."

"Hmm, go."

The researcher then left, leaving Hiruzen Sarutobi alone in the office.

Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at the research report in front of him, thinking about the researcher's words just now, and a figure with long black hair gradually emerged in his mind.

"Orochimaru, could it be you?"

"Of course not!"

"Brother, what are you thinking about all day? How could I like Naruto!"

Natsuri denied it while pushing Yuuki away.

"Alright, you don't need to see me off, I'll go by myself."

"Alright, alright, Natsuri, it was wrong of me to guess. I'll still see you off. I haven't seen Naruto and Sasuke in a long time, so I'll go see them too."

Yuuki quickly appeased his sister.

Today was the weekend, so the Ninja Academy was not in session, and Natsuri had arranged to go on a picnic with Naruto and Sasuke.

Seeing his sister and Naruto getting along so well, and as a supporter of the original NaruHina, Yuuki tentatively asked Natsuri if she liked Naruto.

The result was the scene that just unfolded.

Eventually, Yuuki and Natsuri arrived at the picnic spot. Naruto and Sasuke were already there, as was Itachi, who had also brought Sasuke.

Yuuki watched the three little ones already discussing their plans. Because traces of White Zetsu had appeared again last night.

Yuuki activated his Mangekyo and used 'Shinatsuhiko' to sense the surrounding environment.

Yuuki, realizing there was nothing unusual around him, was about to deactivate his Sharingan when he inadvertently discovered something that shocked him.

Everyone's Chakra has subtle differences, which is why sensory Ninja can distinguish people through their Chakra.

In fact, Chakra colors also vary greatly. Although they all appear blue when released, everyone's Chakra actually has its own color.

If one had to say, if everyone could activate Susanoo, then the color of the Susanoo would roughly be the color of that person's Chakra.

Yuuki's Sharingan, perhaps due to being a pirated version, or because it was awakened by harvesting souls with Hellfire.

This allowed Yuuki's Mangekyo to see everyone's Chakra color, something Yuuki had discovered long ago.

For example, Itachi over there was crimson, but what shocked Yuuki was certainly not Itachi.

From Yuuki's perspective, the multicolored light emanating from Naruto was practically blinding him.

He couldn't help but marvel that he was indeed the protagonist. Naruto's own Chakra, Asura's, the Nine-Tailed's, Kushina's, and Minato Namikaze's – five different Chakra lights continuously circulated around Naruto.

In comparison, Sasuke seemed a bit meager. Besides Sasuke's own Chakra, only Indra's Chakra resonated with him.

But none of these were the reason for Yuuki's shock. What truly shocked Yuuki was his sister Natsuri's Chakra.

Natsuri's Chakra color wasn't particularly vibrant; rather, it was absent. Yes, Natsuri's Chakra seemed to be nonexistent.

Everyone in the Ninja World possesses Chakra, even if they are not Ninja but just ordinary people. This was something Yuuki had observed before.

However, Natsuri definitely possessed Chakra and had even awakened a one-tomoe Sharingan.

A shocked Yuuki reconfirmed, discovering that Natsuri's Chakra wasn't absent, but rather its color was transparent, completely transparent.

This gave Yuuki a bad premonition. It was already absurd enough that he was a transmigrator; his sister wouldn't also be some strange entity, would she?

At this moment, Yuuki recalled the process of Natsuri's Sharingan awakening. Natsuri didn't experience any emotional stimulation; she simply awakened her Sharingan because she was impatient and couldn't see the battle clearly.

At the time, Yuuki thought his sister had high talent, but now it seemed things were not that simple.

Yuuki, unable to discover anything else after repeated observations, deactivated his Mangekyo Sharingan. However, when he looked at Natsuri again, his gaze was no longer purely doting.
