Naruto: Starting with the Ten Kage Techniques, Sukuna Jinchuriki

Chapter 53: People Outside the Sense of Malice

Sato Hideyoshi was terrified by the attack that Fushiko Kuroyo couldn't see at all, but he still stammered.

They even wanted to quickly mutate and turn the tables on Fu Heiyao.

However, Fukuyo thoughtfully used a slashing motion to cut these excess parts into minced meat, and then used a benevolent black lightning bolt to stop Sato Hideyoshi's bleeding.

Out of gratitude to Fushiko, Hideyoshi Sato naturally told him everything he knew.

The result was unexpected by Fushiko and Minato.

In their guess, Hideyoshi Sato was undoubtedly a pure villain, but unexpectedly, the story was quite inspiring.

Initially, Hideyoshi Sato was just an ordinary commoner from the villages surrounding Tsurugi-cho.

In a seemingly accidental event, bandits robbed him of all his food.

Just as he was starving and his vision was spinning, he suddenly smelled the aroma of food.

He mustered his last bit of strength to lift his head and saw a pair of clear, azure eyes, as deep as a lake.

So clean that Hideyoshi Sato felt his presence would taint those eyes.

Afterwards, he did not know the name of the owner of those eyes, because he was not worthy to know.

A burning desire led him to someone who would change his life.

Sato Hideyoshi didn't know what to call him, so he could only respectfully refer to him as a god.

Because the gods possess the divine power to change their appearance at will and to bestow power upon Hideyoshi Sato.

When Hideyoshi Sato mentioned changing his appearance at will, Fushiko Kuroyo seemed to be deep in thought.

This ability to freely alter the appearance of flesh and blood is indeed very similar to that of a real person.

With the help of the gods, Sato Hideyoshi came to Tsurugi Town and became a samurai.

But the status of an ordinary samurai was still too low; he couldn't see those eyes.

Fate smiled upon him; during a chance assassination attempt by a ninja, Sato Hideyoshi noticed some clues beforehand and desperately protected a nobleman named Amamiya Seimei.

He then saw those clear eyes again and learned her name from Amamiya Seimei.

Haruya Amamiya

For the first time, an unrealistic fantasy arose in his heart: he wanted to possess this beautiful princess completely.

Afterwards, Amamiya Seimei was grateful to him and invited Sato to be his personal attendant.

Hideyoshi Sato readily accepted, hoping to use this opportunity to climb to a higher position.

Only in this way can he be worthy of her.

But he later discovered that this was not the case; his position as a samurai attendant was his pinnacle, because Amamiya Seimei was the least favored child in the Amamiya family.

Amamiya Seimei's physical condition was too poor, like a roadside weed, as if he would die if a slight gust of unexpected wind blew him away.

How can such a weakling succeed as lord?

Sato Hideyoshi was unwilling to accept this, and he tried every means possible, even considering assassinating the other noble sons of the Amamiya family.

But he is too weak. He has neither talent nor resources, and he probably could not have that kind of strength even if he devoted his whole life to cultivation.

After much hesitation, Sato Hideyoshi once again prayed to the gods.

He wanted to improve his master's frail health and eliminate the other heirs.

The gods readily agreed, and the only price was the need for some "volunteers" to research methods to cure the disease.

Hideyoshi Sato agreed.

He specifically selected people with disabilities or serious illnesses.

Even when the experiment failed and those people were distorted and turned into monsters, Hideyoshi Sato did not give up.

He kept the failed cyborgs outside the city, silently waiting for the gods to succeed in their healing experiments.

Subsequently, within a year, several of Haruaki Amamiya's other brothers suffered accidents.

He had assumed that Amamiya Seimei would smoothly ascend to the throne.

But to everyone's surprise, the old lord insisted on not allowing Amamiya Seimei to succeed to the throne, feeling that he was still young and could have another child.

Sato Hideyoshi had already seen through everything; he knew the old lord had become suspicious.

If a new heir is born, Amamiya Seimei will die.

Sato Hideyoshi once again humbly begged the gods for help, and the gods granted his request.

No new heir appeared in the Amamiya family, and the old lord also fell seriously ill.

Some time later, the old lord died, and Amamiya Seimei finally succeeded to the throne.

He naturally became the captain of the samurai, standing at the pinnacle of the samurai in Tsuru-no-cho.

He was finally able to express his wishes.

Sato Hideyoshi told Amamiya Seimei about his desires and wishes.

Amamiya Seimei remained silent, leaving him to wait.

After some time, Hideyoshi Sato felt that Seimei Amamiya had betrayed him.

He would only give perfunctory answers and make excuses.

She might even be deliberately slandering him in front of Amamiya Haruaki, otherwise why would there be such disgust in her eyes!

At that moment, Hideyoshi Sato suddenly realized the truth.

Amamiya Seimei probably disliked the idea that his commoner blood would taint the Amamiya bloodline.

Even Sato Hideyoshi believed that his bloodline was lowly to the core, and that he was a commoner.

As long as one still has the blood of a commoner flowing in their veins, it is impossible and unworthy for them to unite with a nobleman.

The friendship of the past has been transformed into overwhelming hatred.

Sato Hideyoshi looked at Amamiya Seimei with hysterical hatred in his eyes.

They resented that he was born into nobility, while he, despite his best efforts, was merely an ordinary samurai!

He prayed to the gods as usual.

The deity granted his request again, but this time the conditions were even more stringent.

Changing bloodlines requires someone with noble blood to act as a blood transfusion.

In addition, he also needs to find some high-quality offerings that possess chakra.

Finding ninjas to be sacrificed is easy; just go to the nearest Konoha village and issue a mission.

But the nobles of the Amamiya Palace had long been killed, so there were no nobles left for him to exchange blood for.

After much deliberation, Hideyoshi Sato made a bold decision.

Fu Heiya ignored Sato's sudden agitation and focused his gaze on the young woman on the stone slab.

Minato also looked at Amamiya Seimei's mother on the altar, seemingly conjuring up some unbelievable possibility.

"Lord Seimei's mother loved him very much, so I borrowed that from her." Sato Hideyoshi said this with a hint of surprised absurdity in his tone.

"To be honest, I'm prepared for failure because the plan is full of flaws."

"But who knew these so-called high and mighty nobles would be so foolish!"

"I used the research findings of the deity to weave a lie about regaining health."

"Then Lord Seimei's mother willingly sacrificed herself in exchange for Lord Seimei's health."

"Hideyoshi, you're joking, aren't you!" Amamiya Seimei ignored the excruciating pain of his severed finger.

He forced himself to stand up and coughed violently, spitting out blood as he stared intently at the severed Sato, his eyes bloodshot.

My mother said that he only needed a little blood and flesh to recover.

"We are brothers. You were stabbed eight times and almost died while saving me. We ate and lived together. I even admired you as much as I would a father."

Have you truly forgotten everything from the past?

In Amamiya Seimei's eyes, Sato Hideyoshi was the only person who was kind to him besides his sister and mother.

His world revolves around them.

At this moment, Amamiya Seimei's eyes held a humble plea, begging him not to say it, as if that would make him feel a little better.

"It's all fake, it's all fake, I lied to you." Sato Hideyoshi ignored his pleas, as if he was pouring out all the resentment and bitterness that had been building up in his heart.

For some reason, Amamiya Seimei's clenched fist fell limply to his sides.

After listening to Sato Hideyoshi's account, Fushikokuyo experienced for the first time the madness of the ignorant.

The monster was merely the trigger; the truly insane ones were the brainwashed individuals.

Sato Hideyoshi admired noble bloodlines and was even willing to undergo a blood transfusion.

But what can this bloodline bring him?

If he were to switch to the Uchiha bloodline, anger and despair might still bring him power, but what use is this noble bloodline?

It was merely wishful thinking on his part.

"Young lord, what is your choice? Do you want to kill him?" Fu Heiyao picked up the samurai sword from the ground and held it against Sato Hideyoshi's neck.

He was somewhat looking forward to Amamiya Seimei's choice.

If this were any other world, Fukuko wouldn't act this way, but this is Naruto.

"Don't kill him, he's been bewitched!" Amamiya Seimei's answer was both unexpected and reasonable to Fushiko Yo.

Before he went mad, Hideyoshi Sato treated Haruaki Amamiya better than his own father.

Not only did they arrest people to treat his illness, but they also killed his father and brothers so that he could succeed to the throne.

Lying on the ground with a look of despair, Sato Hideyoshi's eyes widened when he heard Amamiya Haruaki's words.

I don't understand why he would forgive me after doing something so outrageous.

At this moment, Sato Hideyoshi's face was full of despair, but also with a sense of resignation that he had given up.

"I will send my mother and Qingya to the capital of the Land of Fire."

As for me, I'm just a useless person anyway, so whether I live or die doesn't matter to me. Even if Hideyoshi wants to kill me, it doesn't matter to me.

Minato was somewhat moved; he felt that the two must have a very deep bond.

Otherwise, after learning everything, Amamiya Seimei should have been angry instead of showing such a desperate expression.

After the classic forgiveness scene, Fushiko once again pressed Sato Hideyoshi for information about that monster.

Limited by Sato Hideyoshi's abilities and vision, his knowledge was limited.

All he knew was that gods possessed the means to transform humans and the ability to mimic others.

He didn't even know where the so-called gods were.

But aren't those four the sacrifices the gods demanded?

In other words, they should have been targeted long ago.

But where exactly are these so-called gods?

According to Hideyoshi Sato's own account, this seemingly newly born demon should be just as malevolent towards humans as a real person.

But why did he not sense anything at all in his malicious perception?

Could it be that they realized Sakumo-sensei's strength and ran away?

"Yo, let's hurry and go find Sakumo-sensei," Minato said.

He was somewhat worried that the monster Sato Hideyoshi had mentioned might attack them.

Fukuyo nodded and summoned the Jade Dog, which carried Sato Hideyoshi and Amamiya Seimei in its mouth.

Although the two are weak, they might still be of great use as local bullies.

After leaving the Shadow Realm, Fu Heiya sensed that Shuo Mao was not far from them, so he went directly to meet him.

"I never imagined the truth behind this mission would be like this," Minato said with a sigh. "I remember Miss Haruya once said that her brother had strongly urged her to marry Captain Sato, right?"

"So, this whole thing started as a misunderstanding?"

Minato felt sorry for the fate of these two people.

"I'm afraid that's not the case. We don't know what kind of method this is yet, but this guy has already been modified." Fu Heiya glanced at Sato Hideyoshi, whose expression was blank, and said.

Minato was taken aback.

"Think about it, would someone who has gone through so much hardship to climb to the top really be this extreme?"

"Won't he try to verify the information about Amamiya Haruhisa, or even try to find out indirectly?"

"I'm not sure if the things that modify him can control him, but as a monster born from negative emotions, it can still influence emotions."

"From the moment he accepted the monster's power, he was destined to end up like this."

Fukuyo's words pierced Sato Hideyoshi's already wounded heart like a sharp knife.

Sato Hideyoshi's eyes were extremely complex; his expression was half crying and half laughing, as if love and hate were intertwined.

A few minutes later, they met up with Shuo Mao.

However, to Fukuyo's surprise, Nawaki was carrying Amamiya Haruaki on his back.

However, the malicious detection only shows two people.
