====

The immense life force energy made the area around Yoichi bloom as if it were midsummer. The trees seemed to return to life, and the once withered grass sprouted fresh green shoots, quickly growing over half a meter high.

Mina and Kushina, who were chatting inside the house, also sensed the powerful chakra coming from the garden and hurried outside.

Even Gates, who had been disturbed by Sasuke's noise and had found it hard to sleep, lifted his bear head. But upon noticing that the source was Yoichi, he shook his head and lay back down, casually knocking Sasuke off his neck, causing him to fall on his backside.

"Naruto?!"

Upon arriving in the backyard, Kushina immediately noticed Naruto lying beside Yoichi. She quickly rushed over to pick him up.

"What happened to Naruto?"

Mina also hurried over. At that moment, Yoichi spoke up, "Naruto is fine. He just lost something that didn't belong to him. He'll wake up soon."

As soon as Yoichi finished speaking, Naruto, who was in Kushina's arms, opened his eyes. Seeing Kushina, he rubbed his eyes and said, "Mom, why are you here?"

"Naruto, are you okay?"

"I'm fine. Did I fall asleep just now?"

Naruto struggled to jump down, looked around, but couldn't remember what had happened. He only recalled Yoichi calling him over, and then everything went blank.

Yoichi's decision to extract the Asura chakra was to evolve his Rinnegan. Later, he would also extract the Indra chakra from Sasuke. Why should his son be a vessel for someone else's chakra?

Kushina checked Naruto over and then asked Mina to take another look. She gave Yoichi a fierce glare, but when Yoichi noticed Kushina's glare, he made a gesture, causing her to feel embarrassed and angry, worried that Mina might suddenly turn around and see.

After confirming that Naruto was okay, it was nearly lunchtime. However, Yoichi had no appetite. He headed straight to the basement, ready to absorb Asura's chakra.

The Asura chakra extracted from Naruto was significantly more substantial than what was present in Hashirama's cells.

Once in the basement, Yoichi began to refine the Asura chakra.

However, Asura's chakra resisted him continuously. This chakra contained Asura's will, a will passed down since the time of the Sage of the Six Paths.

"It's useless."

Yoichi had trained in spiritual techniques and absorbed chakra that might have belonged to the Ten-Tails. His spiritual power and chakra were far beyond that of Asura's chakra.

Ignoring the resistance within his body, Yoichi gradually split the Asura chakra and used spiritual techniques to erase Asura's will from the Yang Release chakra.

Slowly but surely, like cutting flesh with a dull knife, Yoichi was making this third-generation Ōtsutsuki disappear from the ninja world.

At Mount Myoboku, Gamamaru suddenly awoke, shaking his toad head in confusion. "What's going on with Hagoromo now..."

As the only sage in the ninja world who mastered Yin-Yang Release, Gamamaru could communicate with people in the Pure Land through dreams. He had just been speaking with Ōtsutsuki Hagoromo, but the latter had abruptly cut off the connection, waking him from his dream-state.

"Something serious in the ninja world must have happened to concern Hagoromo so much. Shima, come here."

Gamamaru called out to Shima, another of the Toad Sages. As a toad that had lived for over a thousand years, Gamamaru mastered many secret techniques, most of which exceeded the realm of ordinary ninjutsu.

Shima arrived after receiving the message and asked the Great Toad Sage, "You're awake, Lord Gamamaru. What's the matter?"

"Shima, when you have time, ask little Jiraiya to come to Mount Myoboku. There's something I need his help with."

"Little Jiraiya? He hasn't visited much lately. Seems like he's been on missions all the time. I'll ask him."

"Is there anything else, Lord Gamamaru?" Shima asked.

Gamamaru shook his head. "No, just that. It's best if little Jiraiya comes quickly."

If something could make Hagoromo look so grim, it could only be related to the Child of Prophecy. According to Gamamaru's prophetic dreams, even the Child of Prophecy had to accept Hagoromo's gift to save the ninja world.

Initially, he had supported Hagoromo's hold over the Pure Land to accumulate power to deal with possible future changes in the ninja world.

In the Pure Land, Hagoromo looked at the fading mark of Yang Release in his hand. If this continued, the Yang Release mark would disappear altogether.

Once it completely vanished, Asura's chakra would entirely disappear from the ninja world.

"Asura…"

Hagoromo murmured softly. He could sense the situation, but there was no suitable vessel in the ninja world to channel his chakra through. If he tried to descend into an Edo Tensei body, his chakra might destroy it instantly, making it impossible to use.

"I'm sorry, Asura."

Although Hagoromo was anxious, there was nothing he could do. His only option was to safeguard the Six Paths chakra, preventing whoever had stolen Asura's chakra from gaining the power to unlock the Rinnegan.

Theoretically, combining Asura and Indra's chakra could indeed evolve into a pair of Rinnegan, but it required a qualitative change, a key.

The Six Paths and the world below it were entirely different. One needed to touch a bit of the Six Paths chakra, also referred to as the chakra of the God Tree.

Last time, he had been careless, allowing the previous incarnation of Indra to come into contact with the Six Paths chakra and evolve a pair of Rinnegan.

This time, he would guard against any leakage of the Six Paths chakra with utmost vigilance.

As for the being in the ninja world left behind by his mother, it shouldn't have a second chakra to assist in awakening the Rinnegan.

"Kurenai, has Yoichi not come by all day?"

When Tsunade, along with Hashirama and Tobirama, returned to the office and did not see Yoichi, she asked Kurenai, who was standing nearby.

"No, Tsunade-sama," Kurenai replied. "Even if Yoichi-sensei has something to attend to, he usually sends a clone. But today, there hasn't been anyone here."

"What could he be doing? I hope nothing's happened…" Tsunade murmured, biting her nail in concern. Deciding not to care about running into Mina and Mikoto, she said to her grandfather and great-uncle, "I'm going to check the Uchiha compound."

Tsunade generally avoided clashing with Mina and Mikoto because she was technically the newcomer and always felt awkward about it.

"Tsuna, it's probably nothing serious. There was a surge of powerful chakra at the Uchiha compound this morning. Maybe the Fifth is training," Hashirama reassured her.

"That's right. And that chakra was similar to my brother's. Although it's not as strong now, there's no sign of any disturbances in the Uchiha compound, so everything should be fine," Tobirama added, helping to ease Tsunade's worries. However, she still asked Shizune to check things out, just in case, so she could be at ease.

...

Meanwhile, at the Uchiha compound.

Yoichi had been in the basement since noon and had not come out even by late night.

Asura's chakra was vast, and each time he separated a portion, he had to slowly wear down Asura's will using spiritual techniques.

This will had been fortified by Hagoromo's gifts. Even after reincarnating for over a thousand years, it remained exceptionally resilient and difficult to erase.

Fortunately, no matter how difficult it was to erase, it was still like water with no source. After spending the entire afternoon gradually wearing it down, less than a third of Asura's chakra remained.

As another portion of Asura's will in the Yang Release chakra was worn away and absorbed using the Spirit Transformation Technique, Yoichi suddenly felt a change in his chakra.

The Asura chakra he had consumed was now roughly equal to his own. With the balance achieved, his chakra began to evolve.

The Yin Release chakra of his Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan, upon gaining an equivalent amount of chakra, started to integrate and complement each other, evolving into a higher quality of chakra.

His eyes reflected this transformation, as the pattern of his Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan changed into the purple rings of the Rinnegan.

"It's already transformed into the Rinnegan?"

Though his mind was filled with knowledge of the Rinnegan's abilities, Yoichi still found it hard to believe it had been this easy to evolve his eyes.

"Bansho Ten'in," he murmured, raising his hand toward a distant experiment table, activating one of the Rinnegan's abilities.

A powerful gravitational pull caused the experiment table to fly toward him. Yoichi then used Shinra Tensei, unleashing a repulsive force that caused the ground to form a spherical depression.

Fortunately, he reacted in time and retracted the force, only shattering the experiment table. His house was directly above; had he not pulled back, the shockwave might have caused the basement ceiling and the house above to collapse.

"I got a bit excited. I need to be more careful next time."

Having acquired the Rinnegan lifted Yoichi's spirits. He began exploring the abilities of the Rinnegan. The evolution of his chakra had also elevated his Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan, granting him numerous powers.

The Six Paths abilities were fundamental Rinnegan powers, usable as long as one had chakra. More advanced techniques included the Rinne Tensei for reviving the dead and Chibaku Tensei, a formidable sealing technique.

Moreover, there was a unique ocular ability resulting from the fusion of his Mangekyo Sharingan techniques upon evolving into the Rinnegan—a unique Rinnegan jutsu born from combining two Mangekyo Sharingan abilities.

Kōrin Jinzūya!

A domain controlling life and death, this ocular jutsu allowed Yoichi to govern all life and death within a kilometer. Within this realm, he was the god.

"Let's test it outside," Yoichi decided, leaving the basement. However, upon emerging, he saw Mikoto and Mina sitting in the living room, seemingly waiting and chatting.

"Yoichi-sama."

"Yoichi, are you okay? Do you want something to eat?" Mikoto and Mina asked in quick succession. Their concern made Yoichi smile. "No, I was just training. I'm going outside to test a jutsu. You two rest; don't wait up for me."

"Alright, then," Mina responded, a little disappointed. Recently, the three of them had been sleeping together. If Yoichi wasn't there, she wondered if she could sleep.

After Yoichi left, Mina hugged Mikoto's arm, nuzzling it as she said, "Mikoto, let's go rest."

"I should check on Sasuke, Mina. Don't mess around," Mikoto replied.

"Sasuke's three already; he doesn't need his mom to put him to sleep. Mikoto, spend the night with me."

Mina laughed playfully, not letting go of Mikoto's arm. Despite Mikoto's flushed face, Mina held on, pulling Mikoto toward the room.

After leaving his home, Yoichi headed to a dense forest area outside the village.

"This will do."

Upon gaining the Rinnegan, Yoichi discovered he could discern the strength of a life force and even predict its longevity.

For example, the surrounding trees had roughly ten to fifteen years left before they would die.

Kōrin Jinzūya.

With a slight opening of his Rinnegan, an invisible domain spread outwards, stopping at a kilometer radius.

Within this domain, Yoichi's sensitivity to life force increased dramatically. He felt like he could control everything with a simple gesture.

"What a miraculous feeling, like a creator… Extract."

As Yoichi activated the ability, the life energy from all plants within a kilometer radius was forcibly drawn toward him. Even the underground mice couldn't escape; after running around for a bit, they collapsed and died, life force drained.

All the plants withered almost instantly. Leaves turned yellow and fell, and tree trunks cracked and dried.

"What a powerful ocular jutsu. It's almost like the Chakra God Tree… No, maybe it's even stronger."

Yoichi gazed at the green energy in his hand. This was the life energy of all the living beings within a kilometer, now forcibly extracted.

He could consume it himself or bestow it upon others.

Yoichi experimented by infusing the energy into a nearby dead tree. As he did, the tree immediately returned to life, rapidly growing to three times its original size within seconds, becoming an anomaly in the forest.

"By continuously absorbing life energy, I might achieve immortality, and the people around me might never die either."

Yoichi smiled in satisfaction, moving to another location to test Kōrin Jinzūya several more times. He even absorbed the life energy himself.

However, the life energy from plants within a kilometer was too sparse, only slightly replenishing his chakra.

"If there's an enemy, I could try extracting their life energy. I wonder if this would work on opponents at the Six Paths level."

After several tests, Yoichi felt he had understood the jutsu's capabilities and started making his way back to the village.

====

In the early morning, Yoichi slowly got out of bed after gently moving away Mikoto's soft legs and Mina's arm draped over him.

As he went downstairs, he ran into Yugito, who was preparing for her morning training. Seeing Yoichi's perfectly toned upper body, her face turned slightly red, and she gave him a glare.

"Morning, Yugito. Looks like you slept well last night!"

"Why do you say that as if you were watching me sleep?"

Yugito's face twisted in annoyance. She immediately used her silk-covered feet to step on Yoichi, huffing as she said, "It's all your fault, you pervert. I only got two or three hours of sleep, and today I still have to train in senjutsu."

"That's easy to fix."

Yoichi said with a smile. His eyes transformed into the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan. Yugito soon felt her whole body brimming with energy, and the fatigue from her lack of sleep instantly vanished.

Delighted, she asked, "Is this your eye technique? It's surprisingly useful. If I get tired in the future, I'll just come find you."

"If you do, I'll have to use another method to restore your energy!"

Yoichi responded with a grin, cupping Yugito's pale cheeks. Just as he was about to kiss her, he suddenly remembered that this might be inappropriate. He quickly shifted his direction and kissed her on the forehead instead.

"You're always taking advantage of me!"

Yugito's face flushed slightly after the kiss. She pouted and stomped on his foot again with her silky-smooth foot before turning around and heading off to freshen up.

Of course, the little foot stomp didn't hurt. If anything, it tickled. Yoichi chuckled to himself and then heated up breakfast, preparing a portion for Yugito and Sasuke. After eating, he headed out.

Mikoto and Mina would probably sleep in for a while longer. He didn't need to worry about breakfast for Itachi, Haku, and Kimimaro either, as Yayoi came over early every morning to prepare food.

She was now the Uchiha household's exclusive helper, responsible for looking after the children, a job that was both easy and well-paying.

After breakfast, Yoichi headed to the Hokage office.

Having awakened the Rinnegan, Yoichi could now summon the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path, but he wasn't in a hurry. He planned to intercept it from Madara when the time came.

There was still one-third of Asura's chakra remaining. Once he absorbed all of it, Yoichi planned to extract Indra's chakra as well. Sasuke had better future prospects, and the cultivation method from the Origin Gene would grant him a long life.

Absorbing Indra's Yin Release chakra after Asura's might further strengthen the Rinnegan.

This jutsu could use more practice, perhaps in a forest brimming with life energy, allowing for the extraction of vast amounts of life force. Additionally, he wondered if accumulating life energy could enable direct resurrection.

As these thoughts about the Rinnegan crossed his mind, Yoichi unconsciously arrived at the Hokage building.

Although it was not yet eight in the morning, the Hokage building was already bustling with many shinobi.

Some of these shinobi had been around the building for years. Seeing Yoichi become the Fifth Hokage evoked many feelings, but whenever they encountered Yoichi, they would still greet him respectfully, and Yoichi would respond in kind.

Upon arriving at his office, Yoichi noticed the plaque outside had already been changed to "Hokage's Office." He hadn't switched rooms with Sakumo. His current office was already spacious, with a rest area inside, so there was no need to move.

Rumi was tidying up some files. Seeing Yoichi enter, she stood up and gave a sweet smile, saying, "Yoichi-sensei, you're here."

"Yes, Rumi, please ask the ANBU to summon Nonou," Yoichi instructed. Rumi poured him a cup of tea and immediately went to relay the message to the ANBU.

Nonou was managing the Uchiha Commerce Guild and handling information transmission. Mikoto had increasingly delegated her duties, usually only managing tasks assigned by Yoichi.

With the commerce guild on track, its growth had stabilized. Mikoto now spent more time with Sasuke, Itachi, and Karin, focusing on her family.

Soon, Nonou arrived.

Yoichi spoke directly, "Nonou, send this information to Pakura. Tell her to be prepared. Madara will likely target Sunagakure soon, aiming for the One-Tail. Let Pakura know and have her prepare accordingly."

Once Madara took the One-Tail, Konoha would mobilize against Sunagakure. Tomorrow was Yoichi's inauguration as Hokage, and he needed to establish some achievements.

The Hyuga, Uchiha, Inuzuka, Aburame clans, and Konoha's regular forces were all prepared. If war broke out, they could quickly assemble a formidable force of four thousand shinobi.

Moreover, all of Konoha's shinobi were elite. Yoichi even counted Gates, Shinya from Ryuchi Cave, and other large snake summons among their ranks, planning to overwhelm and annex both Sunagakure and the Land of Wind.

Yoichi wanted to give Pakura a heads-up to avoid accidental injuries. While this might make Pakura feel somewhat dishonorable, Yoichi's letter detailed his reasoning to persuade her. Short-term pain was for long-term peace. After unification, Konoha would transform the desolate Land of Wind into a land filled with oases.

People would appreciate Pakura for improving their lives. Conversely, resisting Konoha could lead to unbearable suffering for the people of the Land of Wind. Faced with the choice of being a hero who bettered lives or a villain who caused suffering, Yoichi was confident Pakura would make the right decision.

After instructing Nonou on this matter, Yoichi inquired about the current state of Sunagakure, and Nonou provided a comprehensive report.

With the collaboration of the Uchiha Commerce Guild and the Fire Daimyo's office, the guild's economic control over the Land of Wind deepened. The Land of Wind had barren lands and couldn't even sustain itself.

If Konoha cut off supplies, and with the Sand Village being no match for Konoha in combat, the Land of Wind would have no choice but to submit to Konoha's slow economic stranglehold.

Some within the Wind Daimyo's office recognized this as Konoha's scheme. Once the village gained control over the economy, their ambitions would grow uncontrollably. They had repeatedly sent envoys to the Fire Daimyo to express these concerns and asked for the cessation of economic support to Konoha.

But it was all futile. Before any signs of dissent emerged, Yoichi had Shisui use Kotoamatsukami to control the Fire Daimyo. Recently, Shisui had also controlled the Minister of Economy with the same technique.

In two years, the Daimyo's will would be fully aligned with Konoha's. Whatever Konoha asked of them, they would comply.

"Let's proceed with this. For now, use the guild's influence to let the people of the Land of Wind see how fortunate the citizens of Konoha live."

Yoichi told Nonou. At his level, his goals had shifted. Now, he sought greater power and eternal life.

Unifying the ninja world was a matter of course. Wealth was insignificant to Yoichi. Unifying the ninja world's power would allow him to achieve his real goals, such as researching the Extremis Virus or Ōtsutsuki bloodlines.

There was still a hidden organization in the ninja world known as Kara. Despite efforts by the Uchiha Commerce Guild to investigate, there hadn't been any leads so far.

Clearly, the Kara organization was deeply concealed.

"Yoichi, are you in?"

Not long after Nonou left, Tsunade entered his office. In public, Tsunade gave him due respect, but in private, she often called him "brat." Sometimes, when she was close to giving in during moments of passion, she'd call him "brother" or other endearing terms.

As Tsunade pushed open the door, two others followed her: the First Hokage, Hashirama, and the Second Hokage, Tobirama.

"Tsunade, you've brought the First Hokage here."

Yoichi stood up, gesturing for Tsunade to take a seat. "I know Shizune came to find me, but it was late, so I didn't want to disturb you."

"It's fine. Mainly, my grandfather wanted to see you. He was quite amazed walking around Konoha this morning!"

Tsunade spoke with a hint of pride. Though Tobirama had previously quarreled with Yoichi, he had no criticisms about Konoha's development. Hashirama, on the other hand, had been astonished, finding Konoha even better than he'd envisioned.

When Hashirama visited the Ninja Amusement Park, he saw his popularity ranked only seventh and asked the staff about it. But upon noticing his brother Tobirama's ranking was almost at twentieth, he burst into laughter.

After seeing the majority of Konoha and learning about Yoichi's achievements, Hashirama's favorability toward Yoichi had soared.

"Fifth Hokage, it's a pleasure to finally meet you. Thanks to you, Konoha has flourished… Hmm, isn't that my chakra necklace?"

As Hashirama spoke, he suddenly noticed the necklace around Yoichi's neck. He was intimately familiar with his own chakra and recalled giving that necklace to Tsunade.

Tsunade blushed slightly. "I lost it in a bet, grandfather, so just leave it."

"Oh, Tsunade, your gambling skills haven't improved. It's fortunate you didn't become Hokage; otherwise, Konoha's finances might be in jeopardy."

Hashirama nodded in understanding. It wasn't unusual for Tsunade to lose things. He used to take her to casinos, and they'd lose so much that even Mito would get anxious. Ironically, most of that money wasn't even lost by him.

Before Tsunade could get upset, Hashirama shifted the conversation, asking, "Fifth Hokage, you probably already know why Tobirama and I are here. A large part of it is because we encountered the Sage of Six Paths in the Pure Land."

"Brother," Tobirama frowned immediately. He hadn't expected his elder brother to be so straightforward, revealing their cards so easily.

"Tobirama, the Fifth Hokage is married to Tsunade and has developed Konoha beyond what we achieved. If we can't trust him, who in the ninja world can we trust?"

Hashirama said, turning to Yoichi, "The Sage of Six Paths told us two things. First, about Madara. He's awakened the Rinnegan and plans to collect the tailed beasts to become the Ten-Tails' jinchuriki and cast Infinite Tsukuyomi."

While sharing this information, Hashirama carefully observed Yoichi's expression. Seeing no signs of concern, he continued with a smile, "As expected, just as Tsunade said, you have a way to deal with Madara, even if he has the Rinnegan."

"Yes, because I also have the Rinnegan. It's no big deal."

Yoichi replied, his eyes shifting through the Sharingan stages: three-tomoe Sharingan, Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan, and finally, the purple Rinnegan.

And this wasn't Yoichi's limit. The Star Stone chakra—possibly linked to the Ten-Tails—had opened the path to Yoichi's chakra evolution. Once he absorbed Indra's chakra, his Rinnegan could evolve even further.

"The Rinnegan…"

Tobirama's eyes were filled with emotion as he saw Yoichi's Rinnegan. He felt a surge of impulsive thoughts but suppressed them in the presence of his brother and Tsunade.

The Rinnegan spoken of by the Sage of Six Paths had indeed appeared.

"It really is the Rinnegan. So, that strong chakra fluctuation we sensed yesterday must have been you evolving your Rinnegan. That being the case, I can tell you about the second matter."

Hashirama recovered from his initial surprise at seeing the Rinnegan and continued, "In the Pure Land, the Sage of Six Paths asked us to find Indra's last reincarnation, Madara, and use the ninjutsu he taught us. This would allow Madara to meet the Sage of Six Paths."

"He said he'd grant Madara the power for us to seal the third Rinnegan in the ninja world, which seems to refer to you, Fifth Hokage."

Yoichi's brows furrowed slightly at these words, but Tsunade was more anxious than he was, frowning as she asked, "Grandfather, why does that Sage want to seal Yoichi? He's been dead for over a thousand years, hasn't he?"

Hashirama shook his head. "Tsunade, even if you ask, I can't say for sure. He didn't tell me his reasons, only that the third Rinnegan is wielded by a dangerous person, comparable to his mother, Kaguya."

"Well, he certainly thinks highly of me. But, First Hokage, why did you tell me everything? As the previous incarnation of Asura, I thought you'd be more inclined to trust the Sage of Six Paths, like the Second Hokage."

Yoichi said, to which Tobirama immediately interjected, "I don't trust him. I trust my own judgment. Previously, I deemed Madara the greater threat, which is why I urged the village to mobilize against him."

"Because you're stronger than me, Fifth Hokage," Hashirama added, "The matters of the future should be left to the future generations. Besides, you have three children and have developed Konoha so well. Could someone like you really have any desire to destroy the world? Perhaps the Sage of Six Paths has misjudged you."
