Hearing the word "zombie," Senju Tobirama almost wanted to pick up this kid and stuff her into the coffin. If he could become a zombie, he wouldn't tolerate this kid's teasing.
"Second Great Grandpa, do you think what we're doing counts as an autopsy? Although I know who killed you, the fatal injury isn't clear."
Second Body seemed to have endless curiosity, which is also the most important quality for a researcher.
However, as a victim of Uchiha Rei's curiosity, Senju Tobirama's heart initially stirred, and he also wanted to see, but then he dismissed the idea when he remembered it was his own corpse.
"Kid, you better behave!" If Senju Tobirama could still use a Sealing Technique, he would seal that chattering little mouth shut.
"Second Great Grandpa, you have to believe me. My craftsmanship is ancestral. People call me the Ninja World's Song Ci. I can definitely find out how you were killed."
Although "Ninja Song Ci" was her own boast, she had done her fair share of autopsies, which is something every Medical Ninja must experience.
As for the cadavers, of course, they were Ninja from other villages who, after sacrificing themselves, were willing to contribute to Konoha.
"Stop talking, I'm going to dissipate from anger."
It wasn't dying from anger, but dissipating from anger, because Senju Tobirama was just a mass of Chakra.
"Don't avoid medical treatment because you're embarrassed to be seen. You can't just endure not knowing your fatal injury. This is also to complete Konoha's historical records."
For a formidable figure like the Second Hokage, the records only stated that he died after being ambushed by the Gold and Silver Brothers' unit. His body was even returned by the Hidden Cloud Village, which was truly tragic.
"I heard that ghosts who die in a foreign land have a lot of resentment. No wonder Second Great Grandpa always looks like someone owes him money."
"Kid, are you done talking?! If you're done, hurry up and take my flesh and get out!"
Senju Tobirama himself cut some flesh from his corpse's finger and threw it to Uchiha Rei, just wanting this annoying kid to leave quickly.
"That's too little. You should at least remove an arm, right? With so little, if I don't succeed on the first try, won't I have to disturb your peace again later?"
Grave robbing only needs to be done once. Doing it too many times makes it easy to be discovered, which would damage her glorious image.
"Kid! An arm! Do you know how much that is? Is it for eating?! The flesh I just gave you can be used ten times if you're careful."
Senju Tobirama looked at this kid who wanted to remove his arm. He really wanted to remove this kid's arm.
"You wouldn't dare not give it! If you don't, I'll cultivate a little Tobirama from your cells and infuriate you."
Although Senju Tobirama's cells were already dead, the chromosomes in the cell nucleus should not have disintegrated due to the well-preserved seal.
At that time, if she fused Senju Tobirama's cell nucleus into White Zetsu's cells and cultivated a cloned Tobirama, it would certainly be a lot of fun.
"Kid! You dare! Are you even from the Senju Clan? Why are you so much like an inherently evil Uchiha kid?!"
Senju Tobirama had never been threatened in his life. Back then, Uchiha Izuna didn't even survive three episodes after threatening him. Now, this kid actually bullies him in his powerless state after death.
"Of course, I'm an inherently evil Senju kid. Can't a Senju be inherently evil? Don't you also have an inherently evil Senju old ghost like yourself?"
Second Body wasn't going to humor Senju Tobirama. He always had "inherently evil" on his lips. One day, he'd run into Uchiha Madara and get beaten black and blue.
"Well, Second Great Grandpa, you're already dead. If I cultivate a little Tobirama, he'll be a genius of Konoha. Think about it, won't Konoha have a successor?"
Orochimaru could create Mitsuki, so why couldn't she create a little Tobirama? And this time, she wouldn't use White Zetsu's cells, but Uchiha's cells, just to infuriate him.
"That actually makes some sense! No, it doesn't! Kid, if you dare to do that, aren't you afraid you won't be able to stay in Konoha? Many people know my face!"
Senju Tobirama could not tolerate the appearance of his clone. Even though he was already dead, he could not allow it, but how could he stop it?
"It's a small matter. I'll just say he's your illegitimate grandson. The seniority fits perfectly, and you'll have a successor. Isn't that great?"
By the Six Paths Sage, Senju Tobirama had never encountered such an evil, such a troublesome, such an annoying, such a maddening kid.
"When I'm Edo Tensei'd, the first thing I'll do is kill this kid. Someone so evil definitely isn't a Senju offspring."
"Second Great Grandpa, what are you thinking? Why do I feel a chill down my spine? Are you thinking of how to get revenge on me?"
Uchiha Rei's Cursed Energy perception was best at grasping negative emotions. Unfortunately, Senju Tobirama was already dead; otherwise, he would have been a stable source of emotions.
"Kid, I'll give you one finger at most. Don't even think about more. But you also have to promise me not to create any little Tobiramas!"
Given the current situation, where he couldn't do anything, he could only feign compliance and temporarily appease this kid. When he was Edo Tensei'd, it would be time for reckoning.
However, he also didn't want to kill his own clone; that would be truly terrible. No one in the entire Ninja World had ever had such an experience.
"Deal. Second Great Grandpa is indeed easy to talk to."
Uchiha Rei smiled very sweetly, but in Senju Tobirama's eyes, she looked so sinister, just like an Uchiha kid.
"You do it yourself. My Chakra is no longer enough to condense a Chakra Scalpel."
Senju Tobirama's body became increasingly ethereal, mainly because the intense emotional fluctuations caused his will to fail to restrain some Chakra, allowing it to dissipate.
"No problem. You can trust my technique. There will be absolutely no pain."
"This kid is here to torment me, isn't she? I'm already dead, and she's talking about no pain!"
Uchiha Rei brandished the Chakra Scalpel, ready to jump into the coffin and retrieve a finger.
"Kid! Show some respect! What kind of behavior is that?!"
Senju Tobirama watched Uchiha Rei, who was standing on both sides of the coffin lid, preparing to act, and felt his own Chakra dissipate even more.
Second Body looked at where her backside was facing Senju Tobirama's head and immediately adjusted her position.
"Sorry, sorry, I was too excited and didn't pay attention. Next time for sure."
The Chakra Scalpel suddenly extended over a meter, easily severing the longest middle finger of Senju Tobirama's corpse. Chakra controlled the finger, placing it into a test tube for preservation.
Then, she jumped to the other end of the coffin and, with a kick in mid-air, sent the coffin lid back to close it. The entire movement was graceful and concise, but Senju Tobirama was furious.
"Alright, Second Great Grandpa, would you like to come to my house and sit for a bit?" Uchiha Rei remembered the etiquette from her previous life and immediately extended the invitation.
"No, I'm about to dissipate." Senju Tobirama only found this kid's pretty face to be so repulsive.
"That's good. Oh, Second Great Grandpa, I'm actually an Uchiha, hee hee, surprised? Unexpected? Exciting? Happy? Delighted?"
Uchiha Rei was quite pleased, speaking to the almost transparent and barely able to maintain form Senju Tobirama.
