Chapter 134: Yin-Yang Release and the Fire Style: Explosive Flame Array?!
Upon hearing the system's prompt, Uchiha Yuta's calm heart wavered slightly.
He hadn't expected that…
In the Hidden Rain Village, he could actually sign in and obtain both Yin-Yang Release and the Fire Style: Explosive Flame Array.
Among them, the Explosive Flame Array was notable—not just any jutsu, it was once the signature technique of the former leader of the Hidden Rain, Hanzo of the Salamander. Even Nagato's legs had been severely injured by this very technique.
As for Yin-Yang Release...
It was a secret technique tied to the Sage of Six Paths, known as the power to create something from nothing, to give form and life—thus known as the Art of Yin-Yang Release.
To put it simply:
Yin Release represents spiritual power. Techniques of Yin Release can create a form out of nothingness.
Yang Release represents physical power. Techniques of Yang Release can breathe life into a form.
Combined, they become the Yin-Yang Release Technique, able to both create and animate life.
> (Note: Yin-Yang Release, Yin-Yang attributes, and Yin-Yang power are three distinct concepts. They should not be confused.)
"I haven't reached the level of the Six Paths yet, and yet I've drawn from the Six Paths' secret arts..."
Feeling a comforting warmth from behind, Uchiha Yuta suppressed the joy in his heart, picked up a teacup, and took a slow sip of hot tea.
What else could be said?
After obtaining Yin-Yang Release, his strength had taken yet another leap.

Ding... Congratulations to the host for dominating the Land of Rain and successfully signing in at Hidden Rain Village. A special bonus check-in reward is granted. Would you like to use it now?
"What? A benefit check-in?"
Ding... This is a bonus granted to the host by the system.
"Oh... understood!"
Uchiha Yuta nodded thoughtfully.
Normally, after signing in at a location, the system would take some time before unlocking the next location.
But now, the system had unexpectedly granted him a bonus check-in, which meant he could continue signing in without delay.
Just thinking about it made Uchiha Yuta's eyes glow with determination.
Ordinary sign-ins now contributed little to his strength.
So what he looked forward to most were the check-ins at new, refreshed locations.
Now with this bonus opportunity—well, as the saying goes: if you don't take advantage of free gains, you're a fool. Uchiha Yuta was more than eager to use it immediately.
"System, show me the attribute panel..."
The next moment, without hesitation, Uchiha Yuta opened the attribute panel that only he could see.
With a quick glance,
He saw that the location of the bonus check-in was currently undecided (random teleportation).
"Interesting..."
Upon seeing the words "random teleportation," a spark of curiosity and excitement lit up on Uchiha Yuta's face.
The more mysterious the system, the more eager he became.
"A little more effort..."
After a while, Uchiha Yuta, clearly in a good mood, sensed something behind him and softly gave a command.
"Yes..."
Hearing this, Konan's face stiffened slightly.
Still, she frowned, clenched her teeth, and increased the strength in her hands.
What else could she say?
Faced with the merger of Konoha Village and Hidden Mist Village, Konan had gradually surrendered from her initial resistance. Especially after witnessing the rebirth and revitalization of Hidden Rain Village, her heart had slowly begun to soften.
---
"One of the Legendary Sannin—Jiraiya—should be arriving at Hidden Rain Village this afternoon," Uchiha Yuta suddenly mentioned with a thoughtful expression.
"Jiraiya-sensei?"
Konan's hands paused for a moment, then resumed with slightly more force as she massaged his back.
---
That afternoon, in a conference room at the top of the Rain Tower:
Uchiha Yuta, Tsunade, and Jiraiya sat together.
"Hokage-sama, the daimyo of the Land of Rain has been secretly replaced by our forces," Tsunade reported in a deep voice. "From now on, the daimyo of the Land of Rain will serve our interests."
"Excellent."
Uchiha Yuta nodded with great satisfaction.
In truth, ever since the unification of Konoha, the daimyo of the Land of Fire had also been replaced in secret.
What choice did he have?
The daimyo of the Fire Country and the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, had always been of the same mind—corrupt and entangled. In order to prevent internal strife and eliminate future threats, Uchiha Yuta had orchestrated a secret operation to replace the Fire Daimyo.
A minor incident occurred during the operation—the Twelve Guardian Ninja, who were tasked with protecting the daimyo, dared to resist. In the end, Konoha's Shadow Department wiped them out with overwhelming force.
Even Asuma Sarutobi had been mercilessly eliminated.
---
"For the development of Hidden Rain Village, follow the same growth model as Konoha."
Uchiha Yuta paused for a moment before continuing, "Raise the strength of Hidden Rain as fast as possible."
"Understood!"
Tsunade responded solemnly.
---
"Konan, have a seat here."
Turning to look at her, Uchiha Yuta motioned to Konan, who had been silently standing behind him.
"Yes, Fifth Hokage-sama," Konan responded cautiously. She glanced at Jiraiya before stepping forward and sitting down.
---
"Ahh..."
Looking at the anxious and uneasy Konan, Jiraiya sighed deeply with a dark expression.
His true reason for coming to Hidden Rain wasn't just diplomacy—it was for Konan, Yahiko, and Nagato. Now, all he felt was helplessness, regret, and guilt.
"If I'm not mistaken... Nagato is likely already dead."
Uchiha Yuta glanced at both Jiraiya and Konan and said coldly, "After the Akatsuki was eliminated, Nagato lost all value. So—"
He didn't finish the sentence,
But both Konan, Jiraiya, and Tsunade understood what it implied.
---
"Impossible..."
Konan's expression went pale. She muttered in despair, "No wonder I've felt so uneasy these past few days... Is Nagato really gone?"
Bang!!
The next moment,
Unable to accept the truth,
Konan's spirit wavered violently. Her eyes rolled back, and she fainted right there in the conference room.
---
"We'll continue the meeting."
Glancing at the unconscious Konan, Uchiha Yuta's expression didn't change. He gave no particular reaction and continued calmly.
"Understood."
Tsunade nodded without blinking.
"Alright..."
Jiraiya hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded in agreement as well.
