Chereads / Naruto : Sequence 0 Visionary / Chapter 108 - Chapter 109 : Dream Walker!!

Chapter 108 - Chapter 109 : Dream Walker!!

History had silently shifted its course.

Uchiha Sogetsu, shrouded in psychological invisibility, employed meticulously arranged items and layered hypnosis and suggestions to distort the thoughts of the Mist Ninjas.

The operation was straightforward. Merely hinting at "revenge" in the wake of the Third Mizukage's demise easily stirred their fury, steering them in his intended direction.

With his task completed, Uchiha Sogetsu patted his backside, stood, and cast a faint smile over the lake. "Stay put; you'll prove invaluable next time."

Three Tails Isobu, once again entranced by his hypnosis, remained under his custody for future use.

Utilizing Body Flicker Jutsu technique, Uchiha Sogetsu vanished from the scene.

Meanwhile, the Mist Ninjas, embroiled in vengeful emotions, began clearing the battlefield, erasing all traces left behind.

In the Land of Waves, a non-ninja nation sandwiched between two major nations, Uchiha Sogetsu, freshly returned from the Mist Village, sat in an inn, diligently penning his mission report.

The report was succinct, detailing his actions upon arrival in the Mist Village. 

Naturally, certain details were omitted, but in essence: he dispatched the Seven Mist Ninjas, utilized intel from Yakushi Nono to break the seal of the Three-Tailed Isobu, and orchestrated a diversion using the tailed beast to successfully execute a surprise attack on the Mizukage.

Indeed, it was a covert strike and assassination!

Following a thorough investigation within the Mist Village, it was "officially" confirmed, aligning both parties' accounts.

After concluding his report, Uchiha Sogetsu reviewed it for accuracy. Satisfied, he dried the ink, sealed the document with a special ANBU seal, and passed it to Yakushi Nonō sitting opposite him. 

"Deliver this information to Hokage-sama; he will handle the rest."

Yakushi Nonō, sitting across from him, was astonished. "What about you? Aren't you coming back with me?"

"I'm not going back yet."

Uchiha Sogetsu shook his head, smiling faintly. "I still have some matters to attend to here. I'll return once they're taken care of."

Yakushi Nono took the sealed scroll, gazing at the gentle young man before him with a complex expression. 

"I didn't expect you to actually do it. Not only did you assassinate the Mizukage, but you also wiped out the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of Mist. They should behave themselves now."

Uchiha Sogetsu leaned against the bed, one hand resting on his cheek, a meaningful smile on his lips. "Really? Haha, perhaps."

If he hadn't intervened, perhaps the Mist Ninjas would have swallowed their anger and pretended the incident never occurred. Losing a Kage and provoking a war with Konoha was not a wise decision.

But unfortunately, everything was possible, and that was what made human nature fascinating.

Today, the Mist Village seethed with anger and thirst for revenge, resembling a relentless war machine. Anyone who dared to stand in its way, even their own people, would be ruthlessly crushed!

"Go back soon, Miss Nono."

Uchiha Sogetsu waved his hand. "You've been away for so long, you must miss those kids."

At these words, Yakushi Nono's eyes gleamed with excitement, red with overwhelming emotion. She took a few solemn steps back, then bowed deeply, placing her forehead on the tatami mat. 

"Lord Sogetsu, I am deeply grateful for your kindness. If you ever need me in the future, I will do my utmost!"

"Of course, I'll remember that."

Uchiha Sogetsu nodded slightly, then gestured for him to leave. "You may go now. I want to rest for a while."

With gratitude and respect, Yakushi Nono remained kneeling as he slowly exited the room, closing the door behind him.

Alone in the room, Uchiha Sogetsu let out a long sigh, rubbing his temples. "Now, it's just me. Time to prepare for the promotion ceremony."

After so many delays, he could finally ascend to Sequence 5. He steadied his excitement and gradually composed himself.

Earlier, he had set traps around the room to ensure no interruptions.

After calming his mind several times and carefully checking for any abnormalities, and confirming that everything was correct, Uchiha Sogetsu carefully and cautiously extracted the promotion materials from the system one by one.

A complete brain of an adult Mind Dragon, and 500ml of adult Mind Dragon blood.

The pituitary gland of the intact Mind dragon seems to still have vitality. In the complex folds of the brain's epidermis, there are cracks like eyes. 

The complex and three-dimensional mysterious symbols seem to penetrate into the void and flesh and blood, making people drowsy as if they are being dragged into a sweet dream.

'Calm down!'

Uchiha Sogetsu's eyes were clear and his heart was calm. He prepared the potion according to the method he had practiced countless times in his mind and had already mastered.

In the transparent crystal bottle was the prepared potion. The slightly sticky liquid was emitting faint grayish-white light spots, just like the twinkling stars in the night sky, which deeply attracted his attention.

"The potion is ready, the next step is the ceremony."

There are two types of ceremonies for advancing to Sequence 5.

The first is to find Harpy in the spirit world, sign a contract with it, and then take a potion in a state of intense joy or anger while holding one of its tail feathers.

Obviously, with his current conditions, it is impossible to accomplish this. After all, it is unclear whether there is a "Spirit World" in the Naruto world, not to mention Harpy.

So he chose the second, relatively simple method: just stay awake in the dream (Lucid Dream).

"Fortunately, I prepared in advance."

Uchiha Sogetsu took out an old brass candlestick from the sealing scroll, placed it carefully beside him, and put the prepared spirit into it.

Hermes' brass candlestick possessed a unique ability to weave almost lifelike dreams. During his experiments, Hermes discovered that it could also help him remain lucid and true to himself within these dreams.

As the candlestick wove its dreams, it naturally kept the user awake. This, Hermes believed, was the hallmark of a Sequence 3 dream weaver.

"Wow!"

The ancient brass candlestick suddenly ignited with a blue-gray flame.

The flames flickered, casting light on Uchiha Sogetsu's face. Slowly, he lifted a crystal bottle and without hesitation, drank its contents in one gulp.

Gulp! Gulp! Gulp!

The viscous potion slid down his throat, instantly coursing through his body.

Drinking too quickly, before he could discern its flavor, the world before him blurred suddenly. It felt as though he was ensnared in a psychedelic jungle, drifting into an indulgent dream.

Beside him, the candle flame surged, its blue-gray light shooting several feet high.

The fiery glow rippled like waves, painting the walls and ceiling of the room in blurred, brilliant hues.

Initially drowsy, Uchiha Sogetsu felt momentarily disoriented, then abruptly regained clarity. Before him sprawled the bustling streets, people hurrying past, and the steel skyscrapers reaching towards the sky—all a vivid return to the past.

Sunrise and sunset, the motion of stars.

Familiar faces walked by, yet treated him as a stranger, indifferent to his presence.

Amidst the crowd, Uchiha Sogetsu observed everything with an impassive expression.

To him, it was all in the past. No matter its beauty, it remained irretrievable.

He closed his eyes slowly, feeling his astral body gradually ascend.

Then, he broke free from the dream, which resembled a vast bubble, and gazed downward at the "Island of consciousness" from a higher vantage point. The gentle ripples stirred waves, revealing the boundless, shimmering, unfathomable ocean of illusions.

This was the sea of collective subconsciousness!

To the dreamer's perspective, it represented the convergence of all beings' subconscious and the forms manifested by the Soul.
