Uchiha Zetsu's body turned into a clump of trees.
To be precise,
It was the part of his body made up of mokuton cells that turned into a clump of trees.
The knotted and extended roots covered almost his entire body, and some roots went deep into the ground,
The lush branches and leaves even touched the top of the cave.
In the end, only his head and most of his left shoulder were exposed,
This was almost all the traces he left in the world.
Since Uchiha Zetsu's eyes were to be preserved,
Those were basic medical tools,
Scalpels and fresh bottles were always needed.
After arriving in this world,
Because the main coordinates of the entire world had changed, Yumi Hinata's scroll couldn't be used,
Naturally, the materials prepared in the scroll couldn't be taken out.
Uchiha Zetsu didn't have these things on him, but Rin Nohara actually carried the most standard wartime basic medical kit on her.
It was said that during the Edo Tensei,
If the caster doesn't deliberately control the state of the deceased to be at the time of death, peak, and so on, then after the deceased is in the Edo Tensei, regardless of his age, state, clothes, and belongings,
They will be kept at the time when his own obsession is the deepest.
When Rin Nohara was reincarnated, she was dressed as a standard wartime ninja,
The ninja bag and medical kit were all available. Now that she was resurrected by Uchiha Zetsu with the miraculous Reincarnation Heavenly Technique, her clothes and belongings also followed her, as her accessories, from the Edo Tensei to something that actually existed.
And Yumi Hinata checked the medicine in the medical kit,
Although it was a formula from more than ten years ago, all of them were in very fresh condition.
It was amazing.
Yumi Hinata sighed,
Using simple surgical tools to remove Uchiha Zetsu's Mangekyou Sharingan and Rinnegan,
There was no nutrient solution specially used to keep the isolated organs fresh,
So she had to find a small medicine bottle to empty and put the eyeballs inside.
Since this world was so modern, there should be similar replacements. The mutated body organs of the Bloodline Limit, whether it was the eyes or other organs, all had different vitality and adaptability from ordinary organs. Some of them were even highly invasive (such as Mokuton cells). As long as they could maintain basic nutrition and cleanliness, they could basically stay active for a long time.
Yumi Hinata had just cleaned up the bloody scene when she heard a slight sound behind her. She turned around and saw that Rin Nohara had already opened her eyes.
"Who are you? Are you from the Hyuga family? "Rin Nohara got up from the ground, looking confused." Where is this? I clearly remember that I was already … "
She pressed her forehead, which seemed to be in pain. It was probably the aftereffects of the illusion. After a moment, she stared at Yumi Hinata's expressionless face and suddenly asked, "Are you … are Yumi?" Soon, even her doubts disappeared. She said with certainty, "You're Yumi, right? Why do you look … "
"So old?" Yumi Hinata asked.
Rin Nohara, in such a confused state, couldn't help but smile. "No, you're so beautiful." Then she said with a serious face, "What's going on? Yumi, I'm clearly dead. And you look a few years older than me. "
"You're too polite. I'm now a dozen years older than you." Yumi Hinata rambled. Rin Nohara wasn't stupid. If she couldn't deceive her and caused a serious misunderstanding, it would be more troublesome. In the end, it was Uchiha Zetsu's fault for not knowing enough about Rin Nohara's new body, causing her to wake up too quickly.
"It's now the 58th year of Konoha. It's been nearly 11 years since you were made into a three-tailed Jinchuriki by Kirino and died at the hands of Kakashi." Yumi Hinata asked the stunned Rin Nohara to sit down. "Sit, let's talk slowly."
The little girl looked at her hands and body in disbelief. "But, but I …" She suddenly thought of something and pulled open her collar to look at her chest. "There's no charm on my heart." She lifted her shirt to look at her abdomen. "There's no tailed beast seal either."
Yumi Hinata couldn't help but find it funny. She reached out to help Rin adjust her clothes and said softly: "Yes, there's nothing, a healthy, new body. I know you want to know why you're alive, but it's a bit complicated. Let's talk about it chronologically. "
"Yumi," Rin Nohara smiled embarrassedly. "I want to ask first, is the war over? Did Konoha win? "
Yumi Hinata was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "Yes, it's over. But Konoha didn't win. It can only be said that all countries signed an agreement, and the general peace has lasted for nearly ten years. "
"The truce was less than a year after your death. Because of your death, Kirin lost the Sanbi, which accelerated the end of the war. "
Rin Nohara murmured: "Is that so? That's good, that's good."
Yumi Hinata looked at Rin Nohara's delicate and sad little face. She had never felt like she did at that time. Although they were already experienced ninjas on the battlefield, they were still children.
After a moment, she said: "After the war, your sensei, Bo Fung Gate, became the Fourth Hokage, and he married Uzumaki Kushina."
Rin Nohara's eyes lit up. She looked like she wanted to say something, but she held it back. She just urged her with her eyes: "Tell me more, tell me more."
"Kakashi became one of the Anbu directly under the Fourth Hokage. Although he was young, he should have done well. In a few years, he was promoted to Captain."
"A year later, the Fourth Hokage and Uzumaki Kushina gave birth to a boy. I heard that his name is Naruto."
Yumi Hinata paused for a while, giving Rin Nohara enough time to reflect on the good news, because the next news won't make her smile like this.
"On the day of Naruto's birth, the Nine Tails attacked Konoha. The Fourth Hokage and Uzumaki Kushina died in battle."
Rin Nohara widened her eyes and looked at Yumi Hinata in a daze. After getting an affirmative nod, she leaned down and buried her face in her hands. Her whole body shrank into a small ball, and she cried in a low voice.
Yumi Hinata waited for a while until she saw a few strange demons walking towards them. There was still a long way to go, but she still urged: "Okay, calm down, we have to get out of here first."
Rin Nohara wiped the tears on her face, raised her head, and whispered: "Then, why am I still alive, no, why am I alive again?"
"Because someone wants you alive at all costs." Yumi Hinata was not serious about keeping it a secret. "He asked me not to tell you, but I have no obligation to listen to his orders, so if you guessed it, I won't deny it."
"Him, Kakashi?" Rin Nohara denied it after saying it. "No, Kakashi wouldn't do such a thing."
But her parents are dead, and most of her relatives are ordinary people and ordinary ninjas. No one has the ability, and no one has the need, as Yumi Hinata said, to "want her alive at all costs."
After being stripped of her identity as the "Sanbi's experimental subject", she's nothing more than an ordinary medical ninja. Even if someone has bad intentions towards Kakashi or Konoha, what's the use of her?
What a miracle to come back from the dead. With such a great power, shouldn't it be used to resurrect a greater ninja, such as Minato-sensei?
Yumi Hinata saw that she didn't continue to guess, and couldn't tell if she was disappointed or something else, so she urged: "Wipe your tears, we have to go. Let's find a place to stay first."
Rin Nohara wiped her tears but didn't stand up. She suddenly said: "Yumi, you just said something about me, but you didn't mention yourself. You didn't use honorifics when you mentioned Minato-sensei as Hokage. That's not like you. Also, I wanted to ask, why is there such a strong smell of blood here?"
Yumi Hinata was startled, and patted her forehead: "Sorry, I haven't seen you for so long that I forgot how attentive you are."
She played with the slender bottle containing the two eyeballs, turning it a few times between her fingers, and said: "You may not believe me, but I'm no longer a ninja of Konoha. I built my own village, and now it's called Izukage of the Land of Hot Water. "
Rin Nohara's eyes widened: "But the village …"
"How could they agree?" Yumi Hinata laughed: "Of course they wouldn't agree. What are you thinking? Of course I betrayed them first."
Rin Nohara subconsciously reached for the kunai beside her leg, and then froze. She was just a Chunin until her death, but Yumi Hinata in front of her was an existence that crushed everyone in the ninja school. She was promoted to Jonin at the age of eleven, and now more than ten years later, she's unimaginably strong. In front of her, Rin Nohara felt that her resistance was useless.
"Why? Aren't you … Yumi, aren't you the most loyal to the Hyuga family? "Rin Nohara suddenly thought of a possibility:" Is the Hyuga family all … "
Yumi Hinata smiled and patted her on the head: "Of course not. The Hyuga family is doing well in Konoha. I only betrayed them after killing two generations of Patriarchs and Elders.
Anyway, that's about it. I betrayed them, but Konoha couldn't send anyone to hunt me down, so they simply ignored me and pretended not to see me. Occasionally, when there's a common enemy, we can cooperate. " Yumi Hinata waved her hand in front of Rin Nohara's incredulous expression: "Let's not talk about me. Let's talk about the current situation."
Yumi Hinata stood up, revealing Uchiha Zetsu's face behind her. "This is the person who resurrected you."
Uchiha Zetsu was facing Rin Nohara with only half of his face intact, but Yumi Hinata thought that Rin Nohara would only feel that he looked familiar at first glance, and then slowly recognize who he was.
Although the two of them were teammates and were more familiar with each other, Uchiha Zetsu's appearance and temperament had changed greatly since he disappeared from Rin Nohara's sight at the age of thirteen. Not to mention, both his eyes were taken away by Yumi Hinata. His eyelids were sunken, and there was blood on his cheeks, which made it even more difficult to recognize his appearance.
However, it only took Rin Nohara a second to confirm it: "… Zetsu?"
She crawled over to Uchiha Zetsu's side and reached out to check his breathing and pulse. Even though she was prepared for this, she couldn't help but tremble. She hugged Uchiha Zetsu's head in her arms and tugged at the tree roots growing out of his body, but they didn't budge. She touched his sunken right eye and asked a series of questions: "What's going on?! Zetsu didn't die before? What are these trees? Did he save me? Where are his eyes? "
Yumi Hinata sighed slowly and said in distress: "This is a long story. Zetsu wants to keep it a secret from you, but if he doesn't tell you everything, I'm afraid you won't obediently work hard with me to go back. Just listen to it for now. If you don't believe it, you can go back and ask Kakashi for confirmation. If nothing goes wrong, you will see Kakashi first when you go back. "
Yumi Hinata said that Uchiha Zetsu was rescued by Uchiha Macula and half of his body was replaced by Mokuton cells. Later, after Rin Nohara died at the hands of Kakashi under Uchiha Macula's control, he immediately devoted himself to the Infinite Tsukuyomi project and single-handedly created the Nine Tails attack on the village.
Rin Nohara was furious: "Impossible! Zetsu wouldn't do such a thing! "
Yumi Hinata emphasized: "Originally, we didn't know about this. It was he who told Kakashi before."
Rin Nohara didn't say a word and just cried silently.
Yumi Hinata also talked about how Uchiha Zetsu later sneaked into Kirin, controlled Akatsuki, and stirred up trouble for a few years. He threatened her to join Akatsuki with the Caged Bird, and the two finally fought each other. After that, he learned the truth about Rin Nohara's death from somewhere and tried his best to resurrect her.
"You were first reincarnated by Edo Tensei and then resurrected by Rinsei Rinsei Jutsu," Yumi Hinata said, "The sacrifice of your Edo Tensei is … the result of my village's research, not a living person. But after Zetsu resurrected you, his vitality quickly drained. I think it's not only because of the excessive amount of Mokuton cells transplanted into his body, but more likely, this Ninjutsu itself requires the user's life as the cost. "
"Big fool, Zetsu is a big fool!" Rin Nohara hugged Zetsu and cried: "I'm sorry, Minato-sensei … I'm sorry … it's all my fault, it's all my fault …"
Yumi Hinata irritably clicked her tongue and said objectively: "In the final analysis, it's Uchiha Macula's fault. Or, it's fate's fault. "
Rin Nohara whispered: "If only I was stronger, if only I wasn't captured by Kirino …"
Yumi Hinata sighed. Seeing that she wouldn't stop crying for a while, she simply went out to deal with the monsters who were about to reach the entrance of the cave.
If not being strong enough and not being able to solve all the problems can be used as a reason to blame yourself, especially for other people's mistakes, Yumi Hinata thought, how many people in this world can live happily?
