Chapter 335: Impure World Reincarnation of Rin Nohara

"Miss Rin Nohara, I apologize for the disturbance."

Standing before Rin Nohara's gravestone, Shishou placed his hand on it, preparing to use Wood Release to examine the situation underground.

In the original series, it was never explicitly stated whether Rin Nohara's remains were taken by Obito Uchiha.

However, considering that Obito's name was inscribed on the memorial stone due to the absence of his remains, while Rin had a proper grave, Shishou guessed that Kakashi likely brought Rin's body back.

Otherwise, if Obito had taken Rin's remains, what exactly would he be visiting to pay respects?

"Indeed, she is here..."

Feeling the feedback from his Wood Release, Shishou raised an eyebrow.

Manipulating the Wood Release to extract a small tissue sample and place it in a container, Shishou restored Rin's grave to its original state and vanished.

...

In a secret underground laboratory beneath Fire Source City.

Swish!

A figure flashed, and Shishou appeared on the teleportation platform.

"Has Natsu come to clean again?"

Seeing the bright lights in the laboratory, Shishou raised an eyebrow.

Currently, Hyuga Rimei and Hyuga Natsu either lived in Fire Source City or went to Ryuchi Cave to train in sage techniques.

So, aside from Shishou occasionally visiting, only Hyuga Natsu would come to clean and check the laboratory equipment to ensure everything was functioning properly.

Entering the lab, Shishou began inscribing the necessary seals and formations for the Impure World Reincarnation technique as described in the scroll.

The Impure World Reincarnation has two stages.

The first stage is summoning the target from the Pure Land to the real world and incorporating them into the sacrifice, turning it into the Impure World Reincarnation body of the target.

The second stage is activating the impure body, giving it consciousness and summoning it to fight.

Following the scroll's instructions, Shishou inscribed the seals, then controlled a White Zetsu with a Sharingan to serve as the sacrifice.

Next, Shishou took out a small sample of Rin's cells, quickly formed hand seals, and pressed his hands to the ground.

"Impure World Reincarnation!"

As Shishou activated the jutsu, countless dust particles converged on the White Zetsu in the formation's center, covering its body and transforming into Rin Nohara's appearance.

"So, this is the Rin Nohara that captured Obito Uchiha's heart."

Circling the resurrected Rin, Shishou muttered.

Since he hadn't activated the Impure World Reincarnation yet, the Rin before him was like a puppet, devoid of consciousness.

Shishou formed hand seals again, preparing to activate the reincarnated Rin and give her consciousness.

"Impure World Reincarnation, activate!"

As Shishou completed the seals, the reincarnated Rin's eyes snapped open.

"Who are you?"

"What have you done to me? I remember being dead."

Rin, freshly revived, looked up at Shishou, bewildered.

Since she had died shortly after graduating from the academy, she was only about 140 cm tall, significantly shorter than Shishou, who stood at 180 cm. She had to tilt her head up to look at him.

Seeing Rin's brown hair and deep brown eyes, Shishou smiled.

"This is the Impure World Reincarnation, a jutsu that revives people in a form of impure bodies."

"Miss Rin Nohara, I didn't mean to disturb your rest, but I need your help."

Rin searched her memory for any information about Shishou but came up empty.

As for the Impure World Reincarnation, she had never heard of it as a mere Konoha Genin.

"I can't think of what use I could be to you as a deceased and weak individual."

Rin was well aware of her limited abilities, mainly medical ninjutsu and basic techniques, which were hardly of any significant use.

Hearing Rin's response, Shishou chuckled.

For defeating Obito Uchiha, Rin's role was crucial.

Shishou formed a single hand seal, releasing the Impure World Reincarnation's control over Rin, allowing her to move freely.

Sitting down on a chair in the lab, Shishou smiled at Rin:

"Miss Rin, don't underestimate yourself. I wouldn't have revived you if I didn't know your abilities."

Hearing this, Rin furrowed her brows.

What abilities could I have that I don't know about?

If I truly had any significant abilities, I wouldn't have been captured during the Battle of Kannabi Bridge, causing Kakashi to lose an eye and Obito to lose his life.

Seeing Rin's puzzled expression, Shishou smiled again.

"Miss Rin, I'm from Konoha. Aren't you curious about the current situation in Konoha? Don't you want to know about the Fourth Hokage, Kakashi Hatake, and Obito Uchiha?"

Rin's expression changed slightly; she indeed wanted to know about the current state of Konoha, especially her teacher, his wife, and Kakashi.

As she looked around the lab, Rin asked:

"How long have I been dead?"

Shishou stroked his chin, calculating, "About thirteen or fourteen years."

Thirteen or fourteen years...

Hearing that she had been dead for so long, Rin was stunned, her face blank.

The span of thirteen or fourteen years filled her with a surreal sense of disbelief, leaving her momentarily speechless.

After a while, she asked again, "Has the war between Konoha and other ninja villages ended?"

Shishou calmly replied, "It ended many years ago. Everyone is now enjoying peace."

Hearing that the ninja world was at peace, Rin couldn't help but smile.

Then, she asked Shishou nervously:

"Is Kakashi still alive?"

"Yes, he's now one of Konoha's elite Jonin, a core member of the village."

"And Minato-sensei?"

"He's dead."

"Minato-sensei... dead?"

Hearing Shishou's light words, Rin looked at him in shock.

Her teacher, Minato Namikaze, who possessed the Flying Thunder God Technique, seemed invincible to her. Unless he chose to die, no one could kill him.

Looking at Shishou, Rin quickly asked:

"Do you know how Minato-sensei died?"

"Yes, he was killed on the day his wife gave birth."

"By whom?"

"Obito Uchiha."

Obito Uchiha???

Rin was once again stunned, asking incredulously:

"Who did you say killed him?"
