Rebuilding Uchiha By Removing Fugaku

Chapter 97: Chapter 97



"Dragon Veins or Greer Veins?"

Toki's pupils shrank as he read the system's prompt. How could he have forgotten about these two sources of power?

Because they didn't appear in the main storyline, Toki had always neglected the details of the theatrical versions—the chakra armor of the Snow Country, Loulan's Dragon Veins, and the Greer Mines in the ruins of the Fantasy Land.

It's proven that the power-ups in the theatrical versions are far more terrifying than those in the main plot.

Toki suspected that these two sources of power might represent the true core essence of the planet itself.

The chakra fruit that the God Tree absorbs from the planet is only the surface energy of the ninja world.

On the other hand, the Tree of Might in the Dragon Ball world could absorb the planet's core energy to bear fruit. Even one of Frieza's minions gained enough power from it to challenge a pseudo-Super Saiyan Goku.

Compared to that, the chakra fruit of the God Tree seems a little underwhelming.

But the Dragon Veins and the Greer Mines are different.

One provided the energy for the Flying Thunder God Technique to traverse time and space, while the other could break half of the ninja world if it went out of control.

If the Ten-Tails were to root itself in these two locations to form chakra fruits, wouldn't the results be unimaginable?

The creation of the Holy Grail System revolves around three core principles:

1. The vast energy source necessary to realize wishes.

2. A technique to materialize souls, enabling spiritual entities to influence reality.

3. A control mechanism similar to the sealing jutsu used for summoning heroic spirits.

The Reanimation Jutsu is already very similar to the summoning of heroic spirits in the Fate universe, both utilizing a control mechanism over souls.

The Kato clan's Spirit Transformation Technique could be seen as an early application of soul materialization. Advanced applications would likely create a construct resembling the chakra entities of the Tailed Beasts.

As for energy, the system naturally set its sights on the Dragon Veins and Greer Mines. Only these massive energy sources could fulfill the requirements of the Great Holy Grail.

However, directly utilizing the Dragon Veins or Greer Mines would likely lead to catastrophic results.

The Holy Grail could potentially refine their energy into something similar to a chakra fruit, allowing Toki to wield power rivaling that of Ōtsutsuki Kaguya in her prime.

He couldn't help but wonder if such a feat would even reach the realm of the so-called Ōtsutsuki "gods."

Toki's eyes lit up with excitement.

If this works, it would be a literal ascension for the Uchiha clan.

"The Greer Mines… they should be somewhere near the Land of Wind…"

Toki theorized that the desert in the Land of Wind might have been caused by the two spiritual veins, which absorbed the surrounding natural energy. The temporary energy eruptions that occurred before their sealing likely transformed the desert into an oasis briefly.

In an era preceding Kaguya, humanity once used the Greer Mines to establish an advanced civilization rivaling that of the ninja world.

"Greer Ore… crystallized life energy, so dense with Yang Release Chakra that it's solidified…"

Endless wells of water, livestock that grow overnight, crops that bear fruit endlessly, and immortality that halts aging…

The essence of this mineral is the power of creation itself—the divine power of gods.

Yet, as history proved, when humanity achieved physical equality, the lack of hierarchy created spiritual emptiness. This emptiness gave rise to hatred and conflict, leading to divine wars far more catastrophic than the Ninja World Wars.

The ninja world was almost completely destroyed in those wars, and the advanced civilization was utterly annihilated.

The survivors sealed away the Greer Mines, allowing civilization to restart from scratch. This explained why the ninja world was still in a tribal state when Kaguya arrived.

Toki's gaze shifted toward Pakura, and he suddenly asked, "If the news of your survival gets out, do you think Sunagakure would retaliate against Konoha?"

Pakura looked at Toki in shock and confusion. "What do you mean? Are you worried Sunagakure wouldn't retaliate?"

At this moment, a greedy glint flashed in Toki's eyes.

"Exactly, I'm worried they wouldn't retaliate!"

Pakura: "???"

There's an old saying in economics: When profit reaches 100%, people dare to take risks; when it reaches 200%, they dare to defy all laws; when it reaches 300%, they're willing to gamble with their lives.

The prospect of obtaining the Greer Ore stirred Toki's reborn soul, making him unable to suppress his ambition.

Life energy has endless applications.

Take Nagato's Rinnegan Eye as an example: With infinite vitality, he could continuously use the Outer Path — Samsara of Heavenly Life Technique to resurrect the dead.

Toki even entertained the thought of rallying the entire Uchiha clan to wage war against the Land of Wind, using the Reanimation Jutsu to resurrect fallen clan members afterward.

Pakura looked utterly bewildered at Toki's expression.

"Are you seriously hoping for a fight?"

Toki waved her off, turning his attention to the system's introduction of the Holy Grail System:

[Holy Grail System: Establishes a sealing barrier on spiritual veins. By utilizing Yin Release (Dragon Veins) or Yang Release (Greer Mines) energy, sacrifices or mass collection of life and spiritual energy can activate the Great Holy Grail to grant wishes.]

Toki's pupils contracted as his expression shifted.

So the Dragon Veins and Greer Mines represent Yin and Yang energies, respectively?

To activate the Great Holy Grail System, the balance of Yin and Yang was required.

Sacrificing heroic spirits was understandable; after all, even in the Fate world, the Great Holy Grail required heroic spirits to function.

But the requirement to gather massive amounts of life and spiritual energy… wasn't that essentially a mass slaughter?

If Toki were one of those insane magicians in the Fate world who pursued the Root without any regard for morality, this wouldn't be an issue.

But to start a massacre just for the sake of activating the Holy Grail System? Toki wasn't ready to cross that line.

Scratching his head, Toki thought of the 100,000 White Zetsu clones and the countless reanimated shinobi from the Fourth Great Ninja War.

"Maybe sending Nagato back to the Akatsuki now could trigger the Fourth Ninja War…?"
