Chapter 3: Binding and Chimera
"I agreed, but this is not a decision I can make."
Danzo's request was reasonable; the establishment of the Root organization also required expansion, so there was no reason for him to refuse. However, he also left himself an out.
If that child develops a bond with Kushina, then Root won't be suitable for that child's future path.
"Children should choose their own path in the future."
"Don't I even have this much right?"
Sensing Hiruzen Sarutobi's unspoken meaning, Danzo raised an eyebrow and met his gaze with his sharp, single eye.
Danzo was confident that he could easily lure Fukuyo into the Root organization with just a little effort, but this was different.
What he wanted was an attitude from the Hokage.
Since Root was newly established, it needed the Hokage's tacit approval to achieve Danzo's desired expansion.
He wants more authority and needs more.
"It's all for the village, there's no need to be so particular," Koharu Utatane chimed in, adding her own words of advice.
"Where isn't it all about contributing to Konoha? After all, isn't Root just an ANBU training ground?"
Mitokado also agreed.
In their view, Danzo was just a student; if he wanted him, he could have him, and there was no need to make a fuss.
"I'll say it again: no one can easily decide a child's future without their consent!"
Hiruzen Sarutobi, wearing the Hokage hat, suddenly raised his voice, his tone becoming stern.
The Hokage's aura beneath his straw hat was imposing and dignified, with most of his black hair standing on end, showcasing his stoic and heroic spirit.
Elders Koharu Utatane and Homura Mitokado were stunned and dared not utter a single word.
"I see."
Seemingly sensing the Hokage's unyielding authority, Danzo ultimately gave in.
But deep down, he also yearned for the position of Hokage more and more.
..........
Fukuyo's house is located near the bustling central street of Konoha, not far from the school. In his previous life, it would have been a prime school district property.
At first glance, Fu Heiyao's family seems very wealthy, but the reality is quite the opposite.
Here we have to mention his adoptive father.
伏黑甚尔
An elite Jonin who is extremely skilled in ninjutsu and taijutsu.
The strange similarities made him feel at one point that he had fallen into some kind of perverse pleasure.
After all, the characters in the two worlds are just too similar.
What bothered him even more was that this adoptive father also loved to gamble, and his luck was ridiculously bad.
Before sacrificing himself on a mission, he gambled away most of Fu Heiyao's mother's savings, leaving Fu Heiyao's life somewhat unsatisfactory.
He lives in a luxurious villa, yet he still has to rely on a pension to make a living.
It exists in a superposition of rich and poor states.
After returning home, Fu Heiyao changed his shoes in the entryway, took out a kitchen knife from the shadows, and quickly prepared the ingredients in the refrigerator.
Shadow Space is a derivative ability of the ten shadow spells, similar to a storage space, but the weight of the object must be borne by Fu Heiyao himself.
He usually uses this as a weightlifting device, and the all-around pressure makes his training effect far exceed that of ordinary people.
After the meal, Fu Heiyao put away the kitchen knife and, while digesting the Su Nuo ritual, went down the stairs into the basement.
The basement was fairly spacious, with various books and scrolls about ninjutsu arranged on both sides.
There are also many unique ninja tools arranged in an orderly fashion, including quite a few precious chakra metal weapons.
This is the legacy left by Fukuyo's mother, who came from the Uchiha clan.
The Uchiha clan does not prohibit its members from marrying outside the clan; however, once they awaken the Sharingan, they must take the surname Uchiha.
Whether it was because Fukuyo's emotions were stable or because his bloodline was thin, after extracting Sukuna's curse power for six years, his chakra level reached one calorie.
Even with his chakra yin-yang ratio adjusted to 8:2, he still couldn't awaken the Sharingan.
But he didn't care.
Things will work themselves out; what's meant to be his will eventually be his. For now, these two top-tier techniques are enough for him.
"Even a Jonin couldn't afford this kind of equipment."
Looking at these top-tier equipment, Fu Heiyao sighed.
Although my cheap dad is a freeloader, his equipment is by no means inferior.
There's a saying that goes, "A woman might slow you down when you're wielding a knife, but a rich woman will definitely get you a better one."
Fu Heiyao picked up a high-quality knife mixed with chakra metal and stuffed it into the shadow, then took out an explosive tag.
After preparing the equipment needed to subdue the shikigami, he returned to his bedroom, where he conducted experiments on shikigami fusion while digesting the cursed power carrying the Sukuna technique.
early morning
With dark circles under his eyes, Fu Heiyao got up early and ran towards the forest behind the mountain.
"Su Nuo, open your senses and help me be on guard."
Having reached a secluded area with very few people around, Fu Heiyao gave the order without any hesitation.
"Kid, who do you take me for? I'm not some servant you can order around."
Su Nuo's voice, tinged with bloodlust, rang out, accompanied by a hint of gritted teeth.
"Help me sense things, and in exchange, I'll allow you to come out for some fresh air every day."
Fu Heiyao had anticipated Su Nuo's hostile attitude.
However, he didn't care, because he knew Su Nuo would agree.
Compared to being locked up in darkness all day, with no information or hope, being able to glimpse a new world is undoubtedly an attractive option.
The relationship between the two is completely unequal, and Fukuyo believes that Sukuna will give in.
"I want you to grant me full access; I want all my time."
Su Nuo opened his mouth wide.
"impossible"
Fu Heiyao resolutely refused.
"I need ten hours a day."
"If you don't want to talk about it, you don't have to. I'm not indispensable to you."
"You need me. I can sense that the density of powerful individuals here is abnormal."
"If you want to rise in this world, you need me, Fu Heiyao!"
Sukuna had previously made a deal with Fukuko.
In exchange for ten minutes of fresh air, he gave her some guidance on the Ten Shadows.
During those ten minutes, Su Nuo sensed an exceptionally large number of "spellcasters".
They even sensed a massive, inhuman curse, a powerful curse that seemed to whirlpool and devour all curses and life.
This greatly intrigued Su Nuo.
Whether it's the obviously abnormal density of powerful individuals or the earth-shattering "vortex" curse.
Especially yesterday, he sensed the aura of the Vortex Curse once again, albeit only a remnant.
Both the density of powerful individuals and the curse that was clearly beyond reason made Sukuna realize that this was definitely not the original world.
"Three hours every day, plus your memories of the Imperial Chef."
"Kid, do you think I'm stupid?"
Su Nuo sneered.
After roughly estimating the level of danger in this world, he wouldn't be foolish enough to make this kid stronger.
Although Su Nu couldn't find a way to break the seal, he believed that Fu Heiyao definitely had one.
Just like when he was suppressed by that kid Itadori, he will come out again sooner or later as long as he encounters danger.
"You can access information about your surroundings during the time I need you to be aware of it; that's the bottom line I allow."
"Take it or leave it, I don't care."
Seeing that Su Nuo was not fooled, Fu Heiyao was not in a hurry.
The two are not equal in status, and Fu Heiyao is not afraid that Su Nuo will not agree.
Su Nuo remained silent for a while, then Fu Heiyao suddenly sensed a binding request.
The bondage comes from the rules of the curse.
For some reason, Fukuko, who is the host of Sukuna, can also use it.
"They've taken the bait," Fu Heiyao smirked.
If Su Nu knew that Fu Heiyao was going to the battlefield at the age of ten, I wonder if he would regret it.
"Add another binding condition: you must not cause me any harm or influence in any way."
Although the seal was very powerful, almost eliminating any possibility of Sukuna causing any trouble, Fukuko still learned from Itajō's experience and added extra precautions.
"Remind me when someone comes."
The sealed gate was silent, but Fu Heiyao sensed that the restraints had been established.
"In that case, let's try interlocking first."
Fu Heiyao quickly formed the hand seals of the Jade Dog and the Toad.
