74.8% Naruto: An Uchiha With A Superpower Roulette / Chapter 282: Chapter 282

Chapter 282: Chapter 282

"Fukasaku-sama."

After bringing Jiraiya to the home of the two sages, Fukasaku and Shima, Minato quickly explained, "Jiraiya-sensei suddenly collapsed. Before passing out, he told me to come to Mount Myōboku."

"What happened to Jiraiya? And… Minato? How are you alive?"

Fukasaku-sama was shocked as he looked at Minato. Jiraiya's condition was surprising, but Minato's appearance was even more unexpected.

He remembered that Minato had already died, so how was he here now, carrying Jiraiya to him?

Minato shook his head. "It's complicated, Fukasaku-sama. Please help Jiraiya-sensei first. I'll explain everything later."

"I don't know what's wrong with Jiraiya. What happened?"

"We were training with my son when he suddenly clutched his chest and collapsed. I was going to take him to a medical ninja, but he insisted on coming to Mount Myōboku instead, so here we are."

After hearing Minato's explanation, Fukasaku-sama understood the situation.

Still unsure of Jiraiya's condition, Fukasaku-sama turned to Minato and said, "Minato, bring Jiraiya and follow me to see the Great Toad Sage. He should know what's going on… as long as he's not asleep."

"Understood, Fukasaku-sama."

Minato carried Jiraiya as he followed Fukasaku-sama to the Great Toad Sage's chambers. Upon entering, Fukasaku leapt forward and called out loudly.

"Great Sage!"

"Great Sage, wake up!"

After several calls with no response, Fukasaku-sama was about to suggest that Minato take Jiraiya to the hospital when the Great Toad Sage finally woke up.

"Hmm, Fukasaku… what's the matter?"

Fukasaku-sama quickly replied, "Great Sage, you're finally awake. Please take a look at Jiraiya's condition."

"Jiraiya…? Who is that?"

"He's Mount Myōboku's summoner, the one lying there. Please, take a look at him first, Great Sage."

"Oh, right… Jiraiya. I remember now."

The Great Toad Sage's tone grew more serious as he recalled Jiraiya, and he told Fukasaku, "You both can leave for now. I will handle Jiraiya's situation."

"Great Sage, is there something wrong with Jiraiya?"

"It should be a minor issue. Minato, Fukasaku, please wait outside."

"Understood, Great Sage."

Unable to learn more, Fukasaku-sama and Minato left the room.

As they walked out, Minato quietly asked, "Fukasaku-sama, the Great Sage actually recognized me this time."

"Sometimes the Great Sage isn't as confused as he seems…"

Once they left, the Great Toad Sage opened his mouth and extended a long, steel-like tongue. The tongue touched Jiraiya's body, and a vast amount of senjutsu chakra surged from the Great Toad Sage into Jiraiya.

After a while, Jiraiya slowly stood up. But when he looked up, he was no longer Jiraiya—he had transformed into Hagoromo.

"Thankfully, you were here, Gamamaru. Without your help, it would've been difficult to manifest in this body."

Hagoromo spoke as a Truth-Seeking Ball staff appeared in his right hand, and a sage's cloak adorned his body. However, there were no other Truth-Seeking Balls present.

"This is a bit forced," Gamamaru commented. "Jiraiya hasn't fully mastered Sage Mode. Your power won't even be half of what it should be."

"Not even one-tenth. Still, my time in the Pure Land wasn't wasted, thanks to your guidance."

Hagoromo shook his head. The body's strength mattered when descending into the mortal realm.

This body was too weak. Even with Gamamaru's elixir modifications, he couldn't fully exert his strength.

"Perhaps after some time training at the Toad Oil Pool, you'll accumulate enough senjutsu chakra for one or two fights."

Hagoromo nodded and said, "I'll leave it to you to explain things to the people outside. Once I'm done training, I'll return this body to 'him.'"

"That soon?"

Gamamaru was taken aback. He had only suggested training to build strength, but Hagoromo seemed eager to act immediately. Jiraiya's body hadn't even finished being modified by the elixir, yet Hagoromo had already descended.

"Did something happen, Hagoromo?"

"My mother has broken free from her seal."

Hagoromo sighed and explained, "I felt my mother's will awaken earlier today. The seal on the moon has been broken, and she is regaining her strength."

"And the previous reincarnation of Indra is gathering the Tailed Beasts. Once he succeeds, my mother will revive and cast Infinite Tsukuyomi."

Gamamaru was deeply shocked. Despite his centuries of wisdom, hearing that Kaguya had broken free of her seal made his heart skip a beat.

"What's going on? I thought Kaguya's will could only awaken if someone cast Infinite Tsukuyomi?" Gamamaru asked.

"I don't know either, but my senses never fail me. If it weren't my mother's will awakening, I wouldn't be in such a hurry… Moreover, Indra and Asura's chakras have disappeared. I must do my best to stop both my mother and another enemy."

"Then go ahead. Even if you use up the power of the Toad Oil Pool, it's worth it. I'll speak to Fukasaku."

Understanding the gravity of the situation, Gamamaru didn't hesitate to send Hagoromo to the Toad Oil Pool for training. The pool was the most concentrated source of natural energy in Mount Myōboku and the origin of all the toad oil in the outside world. If Hagoromo trained there, the flow of toad oil would stop, but that was a minor concern compared to Kaguya's revival.

After Hagoromo left, Gamamaru called for Fukasaku and Minato to come back in.

"Jiraiya's fine now, but he'll be staying in Mount Myōboku for a while. Once his condition is fully resolved, he'll return to the village. Minato, I'll leave it to you to inform the village about Jiraiya."

Minato, still worried, asked, "Is Jiraiya-sensei's condition serious?"

"Don't worry, Minato. He'll return soon."

Hearing this, Minato managed to suppress his worry and agreed to pass the message on to the village.

As they left the Great Toad Sage's chambers, Fukasaku reassured Minato, "Don't worry, Minato. I'll keep an eye on Jiraiya."

"Thank you, Fukasaku-sama. I'll head back to the village now. It's been long enough."

...

"Rumi, what are you planning to do today?"

Kurenai asked suspiciously when she saw Rumi handing all the village duties to her. She wondered if Rumi was planning to go meet with Yoichi-sensei.

"I need to take care of some Hyūga clan business. Would you like to come along, Kurenai?"

"No way. If I leave, there'll be no one to handle these tasks."

Kurenai shook her head quickly. She wasn't foolish enough to get involved in Hyūga clan matters, especially after hearing about the recent tensions between Rumi and the Hyūga elders. Getting involved would only bring trouble.

Still, Kurenai couldn't help but ask, "Should we let Yoichi-sensei know?"

Recently, Yoichi had abandoned his Hokage duties to focus on other matters outside the village. However, as his students and assistants, they could still contact him.

"No need. I can handle those old geezers by myself!"

Rumi clenched her fist in determination. Ever since she awakened her Tenseigan, her chakra had seemed to break through its limits, growing stronger by the day.

In just one week, Rumi felt that her chakra reserves had doubled or tripled compared to before her Tenseigan awakening.

Even without relying on the chakra Yoichi-sensei left her, Rumi was confident she could easily teach the Hyūga elders a lesson.

Not to mention, the Tenseigan Energy Tower had been successfully constructed. Rumi could now resonate with the massive Tenseigan above the Hokage Rock at any time. With just a thought, she could unleash a devastating blow on the Hyūga clan's main house.

But there was no need for that. If she struggled to deal with the Hyūga elders, she wouldn't be worthy of being Yoichi's student.

Rumi knew what Yoichi wanted. This time, she was returning to liberate the branch family's power and make the Hyūga clan a more effective force for the village.

"I'm off, Kurenai. Wait for my good news!"

As Rumi left, Kurenai muttered to herself, "I don't think that'll be good news."

She had noticed Rumi becoming more carefree lately. Although Rumi used to maintain the decorum of a noble clan, her behavior had recently become more like Kurenai's own.

...

Meanwhile, Yoichi was at home.

He had suddenly become interested in training the next generation, including his children and disciples.

When Karin heard about this, she immediately raised her hand and asked if Naruto could join them. Yoichi had no objections and let her invite him over.

As a result, both Kushina and Minato came along.

"Sorry, Fifth Hokage, but Kushina and I were very curious and wanted to come see what's going on. We won't try to learn any of your secret techniques," Minato apologized sheepishly, while Kushina raised her head proudly, blowing air out of her nose in Yoichi's direction when no one was looking.

"It's fine. I may need Kushina's help later. I'm not teaching secret techniques this time."

Yoichi shook his head internally, thinking he would find an opportunity later to make a "Kushina-flavored" smothie. 

Once everyone had gathered, Yoichi looked at the small group. The eldest, Itachi, was ten years old, followed by Kimimaro and Haku, who were eight, Karin was six, and Sasuke and Naruto were five.

As for Yoko, she wasn't even one year old yet, so she was excluded.

"I called you all here today because I had an idea. You're all capable of using chakra, and your physical conditions are excellent, so I want to ask—who among you is willing to become a jinchūriki?"

Jinchūriki?

Yoichi's question first shocked the nearby women: Mikoto, Mina, Kushina, and Minato.

Especially Kushina, who was the jinchūriki of the Nine-Tails. She understood the burden of being a jinchūriki all too well.

Even the youngest ones, Karin, Sasuke, and Naruto, knew what it meant to be a jinchūriki, as Yugito, the jinchūriki of the Two-Tails, had been living in Yoichi's home for five years.

"Wait, do you mean sealing a Tailed Beast inside Naruto and Sasuke? Isn't that pushing it a bit too far?" Kushina couldn't help but ask. Having spent her life as a jinchūriki, she knew how torturous it could be to have a monster sealed inside oneself.

"Kushina."

Minato gently tried to calm her down. He didn't believe Yoichi would harm his own children or disciples, so she might be misunderstanding.

"Don't worry," Yoichi reassured Kushina. "The method I use is completely different from Konoha's crude techniques. If you're willing, I can even remove the Nine-Tails' consciousness from inside you, leaving only its pure chakra."

Yoichi continued, "Being a jinchūriki isn't something just anyone can do. I'm a jinchūriki myself, and Mina was the one who helped seal my Tailed Beast. Only if there's a suitable and powerful beast would I allow you to become a jinchūriki."

As he spoke, Yoichi let a Godzilla-like tail briefly appear from his back before retracting it. He had completely mastered Godzilla's abilities, and all potential risks had been eliminated.

Yin-Yang Release could wipe out the consciousness of a beast, and a Six Paths-level sealing technique could ensure that the beast had no chance of resisting. As long as the beast's power didn't surpass his own, there would be no rebellion.

Even if the summoned beast had no abilities, its immense life force could still serve as nourishment for Yomi's Gates.

It was a win-win situation, saving Yoichi the trouble of hunting down powerful beasts in the deep sea.

Moreover, there were plenty of trades on the space-time exchange that required life energy. Some deals needed more than just one source.

"I want to be a jinchūriki, Father!" Karin was the first to raise her hand. She believed Yoichi, who adored her, wouldn't harm her. This was surely a good thing.

After Karin, both Sasuke and Naruto eagerly chimed in. Kushina, seeing that Naruto had already spoken up, raised her hand to stop him but ultimately said nothing.

As for Haku, Kimimaro, and Itachi, while they weren't as excited as Karin and Sasuke, they didn't back down either.

With everyone agreeing, Yoichi decided to take them somewhere isolated—the Land of Whirlpools.

The desolate island nation was the perfect place to summon a powerful beast, and if things got out of hand, Yoichi's clones could whisk the others away while he dealt with the situation.

Using the Flying Thunder God Technique, Yoichi transported everyone there. Kushina and Mina felt a surge of emotions when they realized they were back in the Land of Whirlpools. Memories flooded their minds, but the island was now nothing but ruins.

"Alright, let's do it here. Everyone, move back. I'll have my clone protect you. Sasuke will go first, as this beast is the most suitable for him."

Yoichi's words left Karin and Naruto pouting. One was Sasuke's rival, and the other often bullied Sasuke. If Sasuke grew stronger first, they'd be at a disadvantage.

Karin made up her mind to beg her father to let her be the second to receive a beast when they returned.

Yoichi's clone set up a barrier to protect everyone while his main body moved to an open area.

He had accumulated twelve spins on the power wheel, which could be exchanged for six months of random summons. This ability was perfect for enhancing his children's strength. Even if the summoned beasts weren't suitable, they could serve as sustenance for Yoichi.

The first beast he summoned would be an old acquaintance—Ghidorah, who had once helped him "escape."

"Summon from another world, come forth."

A massive, glowing purple magic circle appeared on the ground.

Boom!

With a deafening crash, a colossal beast that blotted out the sky appeared before everyone.

Those inside the barrier, including Mina, Kushina, and the others, felt the sky darken as the enormous creature cast its shadow over them.

"ROAR!!"

The three dragon heads snaked through the clouds, and its massive wings seemed to cover the entire sky. Its roar caused fierce winds to howl, uprooting the ground several meters deep.

Mina couldn't help but say, "So, it's this creature. Back then, Lord Yoichi and I were nearly killed by it…"

No sooner had Mina finished speaking than they saw three versions of Yoichi appear near Ghidorah's three heads, each delivering a mountain-shattering punch to the dragon's skulls.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

Three thunderous impacts echoed, and Ghidorah's massive body collapsed to the ground.

Then, Yoichi transformed three Truth-Seeking Balls into spears and hurled them down, piercing Ghidorah's three heads and pinning the beast to the earth.

"Inorganic Reincarnation!"

Yoichi raised his hand, and the ground beneath Ghidorah softened like a swamp. Chains of earth shot up, binding the enormous creature tightly.

Back when Yoichi faced such beasts, he had no choice but to flee. Now, he could subdue Ghidorah in less than a minute.

Ghidorah contained an immense amount of energy, but it couldn't fully utilize it. To someone like Yoichi, who had comparable power, Ghidorah was just a massive punching bag.

What's more, Yoichi's strength now far exceeded Ghidorah's. His own Godzilla-like power had evolved to the fourth stage long ago.

Even though Yoichi had bound Ghidorah with two layers of restraints, the dragon was still struggling. However, with the Truth-Seeking Spear impaling its brain, it couldn't regenerate or shift its consciousness. Its efforts were in vain.

Only after Yoichi used Yin-Yang Release to nearly obliterate Ghidorah's consciousness and spirit did the dragon stop struggling.

Once everything was settled, Yoichi called Sasuke and the others over.

"Father, is this beast going to be Sasuke's Tailed Beast?" Karin asked, her eyes glued to Ghidorah. Although the creature hadn't lasted long against Yoichi, its overwhelming presence had left a deep impression on her.

Unlike most little girls, Karin admired powerful things!

Yoichi could tell what his daughter was thinking by the look in her eyes. He patted her head and said, "Karin, there will be even stronger beasts in the future. If not, I'll train you to be as strong as I am."

"Sigh~" Karin pouted as she ran off to cling to Mina, trying her best not to look at Ghidorah.

Naruto was equally fascinated, but since it had already been decided that Sasuke would go first, he could only stand to the side, swallowing his envy.

"Sasuke, come here."

"Yes, Father!"

Sasuke stood before Yoichi, who warned him, "Although Ghidorah is now mindless and won't resist, the sealing process will still be painful. Bear with it."

"I understand!"

Once Sasuke had agreed, Yoichi asked Mina to begin the sealing process.

"Adamantine Sealing Chains!"

Eight golden chakra chains extended from Mina's back, binding Ghidorah's massive body. However, Ghidorah was so large that Mina's chains alone weren't enough.

"I'll help too," Kushina offered, using her own Adamantine Sealing Chains. Together, they quickly sealed Ghidorah inside Sasuke.

Yoichi then placed a Six Paths Seal on Sasuke, using Yin-Yang Release to control Ghidorah's body, ensuring absolute security.

After everything was done, Yoichi infused Sasuke with a bit of life energy to help him recover quickly.

As soon as Sasuke stood up, Mikoto rushed to his side. "Sasuke, how do you feel?"

"I feel…"

Sasuke looked at his hands, then raised one toward a distant clearing.

Zap!

Dozens of golden bolts of lightning shot from Sasuke's palm, crackling like serpents in the void. The lightning struck the ground, creating several charred craters, each five or six meters deep.

Minato and the others watched in shock, their eyes widening in disbelief. "That… that kind of power… Many jōnin couldn't manage that, and this is just a Lightning Release technique."

Lightning Release jutsu was typically used to paralyze enemies rather than for destruction. Wind and Fire Release were generally more destructive. Yet Sasuke had casually achieved what most jōnin couldn't.

The power was on par with a forbidden jutsu, but Yoichi showed no concern, as if there were no drawbacks to using such power.

"Sasuke, it seems you'll need to work on controlling that power when we get back."

Although Yoichi was satisfied with the result, Sasuke's current state was dangerous. A single misstep could kill a chūnin.

"I'll add another layer of sealing. Once you've mastered this power, I'll remove it."

Chapter 283: Chapter 283

The method Yoichi used for creating a jinchūriki was nearly perfect. The Six Paths Seal ensured that the beast's power wouldn't leak out, and the life energy acted as a safeguard, eliminating any side effects.

The Yin-Yang Release erased the beast's consciousness, preventing any resistance from the beast.

Over time, Sasuke's chakra would completely assimilate Ghidorah's powers, just like how Yoichi had done with his own beast.

Ghidorah, a Titan beast from Venus, had several abilities, though it only had two main techniques: an exceptional regeneration ability and the power to transfer its consciousness, as well as the ability to store bioelectricity and release it as gravitational beams.

Even before being summoned, Ghidorah carried a vast amount of energy, comparable to the Nine-Tails. Sasuke would never have to worry about running out of energy, and Ghidorah's powers also provided strong healing capabilities.

Upon returning, Sasuke was so excited that he wanted Yoichi to train him all night. But after receiving a couple of smacks, he reluctantly went to sleep. However, Sasuke's training could be doubled from tomorrow, using Itachi's standards as a guide. With Ghidorah's energy and recovery abilities, Sasuke would reach jōnin-level strength even before graduating from the academy.

If Sasuke could fully develop Ghidorah's powers, he might even reach Kage-level strength.

Meanwhile, Karin, knowing how strong Sasuke would become, refused to leave when Yoichi tried to go to sleep. Pouting, she clung to him like a koala all night, refusing to let go even as she slept.

Karin felt a deep sense of loss. Her younger brother, who wasn't as strong as her before, now had incredible power. If she couldn't continue bullying Sasuke, Karin would be upset for a long time.

Technically, Yoichi could summon a new beast after midnight, but there was no need to rush. Since the next summon was an unknown entity, he allowed Karin to stay attached to him throughout the night.

That night, neither Mikoto nor Mina were around; Yoichi was left with his two daughters, Yoko and Karin.

Naruto was in a similar mood. On the way home, seeing Sasuke, his rival, gain such power, he wondered how he could keep calling him a "dead last." Naruto had always been the weakest of the group, and now, even teaming up with Karin wouldn't be enough to take down Sasuke.

As for Haku, Kimimaro, and Itachi, they rarely got involved in the rivalry between the younger children.

"Naruto, what's wrong?" Kushina asked, noticing her son's gloominess.

"Sasuke got so strong all of a sudden. He's going to keep calling me a dead last."

Naruto sighed, sounding like an adult. He and Karin had always bullied Sasuke, but now things were going to change.

Kushina didn't know what to say, so she reassured him, "Don't worry. The Fifth Hokage promised to seal a beast inside you too."

"But, Mom, what if there aren't any left when it's my turn?"

"Don't worry about that. If that happens, I'll go knock on his door myself!"

Kushina rolled up her sleeves, showing off her muscular arms, which made Naruto feel better as he drifted off to sleep.

After Naruto fell asleep, Kushina muttered, "I'm going to find that guy tomorrow."

Minato quickly interjected, "Let's not rush, Kushina. If the Fifth Hokage said he'd do it, he won't forget. If you push too hard, he might get annoyed and change his mind about Naruto."

"He wouldn't dare," Kushina snapped, before realizing she had almost spoken her mind. After a moment of thought, she added, "Besides, I'm good friends with Mina, and Naruto is one of the last remaining members of the Uzumaki clan. Yoichi should help out just for her sake."

Satisfied with this reasoning, Kushina relaxed, feeling relieved that she hadn't said anything too revealing.

Minato, trying to ease her concerns, added, "The Fifth Hokage is fair to everyone. He's always treated his students and Itachi well, so there's no need to worry."

Despite Minato's complicated relationship with Yoichi, he had to admit that Yoichi treated everyone equally, especially Itachi. While everyone knew Itachi was Fugaku's son, Yoichi had always supported him without holding back, even sharing clan secrets that others, like Shisui, didn't have access to.

"I know. I'm just saying. Let's go to sleep, Minato."

Kushina ended the conversation, and after washing up, she joined Minato in bed.

As Minato lay beside Kushina, he listened to her steady breathing, but sleep wouldn't come for him. He could only lie there, staring blankly at the ceiling.

The last time he had angered Kushina by spitting out her cooking, he had to explain the characteristics of the Edo Tensei body to avoid further issues. Since then, he had only pretended to eat with her but never actually touched his food.

'Once Jiraiya-sensei returns, I'll spend some more time with Naruto and Kushina, then go back,' Minato thought to himself. He wanted nothing more than to stay with his wife and son forever, but being a dead man in a world of the living weighed heavily on him, especially when he ventured outside.

Most villagers stared at him in shock, their eyes drawn to his cracked, Edo Tensei body and his peculiar eyes. After a few encounters, Minato stopped going out altogether.

The pressure he felt grew heavier with each passing day, reminding him that the dead and the living belonged to different realms.

As the night deepened, on the other side of the ninja world, the sun shone brightly over the sacred land of Mount Myōboku.

Fukasaku arrived at the Great Toad Sage's chamber, surprised to find the sage awake. "Great Sage, the flow of toad oil has suddenly stopped. Is there something wrong with the source of the sacred land?"

The source of the sacred land was where Mount Myōboku trained its sages. It contained the purest natural energy, allowing the toads to maintain their longevity. Fukasaku and Shima had both trained there, which was why they had lived for over 800 years. Once they passed away, Mount Myōboku would select new toads to train in the sacred land to become sages.

"It's nothing serious. The flow will return to normal soon, Fukasaku."

"I understand, Great Sage. I'll take my leave now."

After hearing this, Fukasaku left, hopping away. The toads who trained using the toad oil would just have to pause their training for now.

Once Fukasaku was gone, a figure emerged from behind the Great Toad Sage's chamber. Holding a staff and surrounded by nine Truth-Seeking Balls, his aura was nearly as strong as it had been in his prime.

"You've recovered, Hagoromo?" the Great Toad Sage asked.

"More or less. I can only make two or three moves, but thanks to your help, Gamamaru, I've regained enough strength," Hagoromo Ōtsutsuki replied. Without the rich natural energy of Mount Myōboku, it would have taken years, maybe even decades, for him to accumulate enough chakra.

"Now we just have to wait for the right moment. I'll return this body for now, Gamamaru."

With that, Hagoromo sat down, his staff and Truth-Seeking Balls disappearing as he lowered his head.

Moments later, Jiraiya slowly regained consciousness, looking around in confusion. "Where am I? What happened… Great Sage? Why are you here?"

Jiraiya had thought he was still in Konoha, but after glancing around, he realized he was at Mount Myōboku.

The Great Toad Sage explained, "Jiraiya, your body was having some issues. Minato brought you here, but now everything's fine."

"Is that so?"

"Now that you're better, I'll have Fukasaku send you back."

Using Mount Myōboku's secret technique, the Great Toad Sage called Fukasaku, who then prepared to send Jiraiya back.

As they left the Great Toad Sage's chamber, Fukasaku asked, "Jiraiya, are you sure you're alright? When Minato brought you here, you were in a lot of pain."

"I'm fine now. If anything feels off, I'll have the medics check me out when I get back to Konoha. Hopefully, it's nothing too serious."

Clenching his fist, Jiraiya noticed that his sensitivity to natural energy had drastically increased. It was as if—

"Wait, Fukasaku-sama, hold on."

Jiraiya clasped his hands together, and after absorbing natural energy, red markings quickly appeared on his face, and his eyes turned into toad eyes. Besides these two changes, his appearance remained the same.

"A perfect Sage Mode? Jiraiya, have you been training in secret? You're even more skilled now."

Fukasaku was stunned. Previously, Jiraiya could barely maintain Sage Mode, and he needed help from Fukasaku and Shima to absorb natural energy.

But now, Jiraiya had entered Sage Mode instantly, maintaining it flawlessly—and it was perfect Sage Mode at that.

"I'm not sure what happened, but I feel amazing, Fukasaku-sama."

Jiraiya was thrilled. He felt stronger than ever, capable of maintaining Sage Mode without any assistance from Fukasaku or Shima.

"It seems this was a blessing in disguise. You've gained quite a bit from this," Fukasaku remarked, suspecting that the Great Toad Sage had intervened. While he didn't know why the sage had helped Jiraiya, he was sure that the sage would never harm Mount Myōboku, so he kept his thoughts to himself.

"Let's head back. If you ever need help, just let us know."

"Understood, and thanks for everything, Fukasaku-sama."

With that, Jiraiya deactivated the reverse summoning and returned to Konoha.

...

The following evening, Yoichi once again took his children, students, and the Uzumaki family to the Land of Whirlpools. This time, the summon was random. It could be a powerful beast, or it might turn out to be something less useful.

Karin and Naruto both clenched their fists, hoping that the summon would be something suited to them. Sasuke, however, crossed his arms, mimicking Yoichi's stance.

No matter how strong the new summon was, it couldn't surpass his Ghidorah!

Boom!

A massive magic circle appeared, followed by a deafening explosion.

Sensing the magnitude of the summon, Kushina and Mina realized that this beast, too, had considerable power.

But the next moment, they all felt an intense cold. The ground beneath their feet rapidly froze, forming solid ice.

Luckily, Yoichi's clone unleashed chakra just in time to block the freezing air and the ice spreading across the ground.

"Haku, this one's for you. The Frost Dragon, Sadayr. Its temperament isn't the best, so I'll subdue it before sealing it into you."

Inside the barrier, Yoichi's clone explained the situation to Haku, who nodded in agreement. Everyone else watched in awe as a towering, 100-meter-tall frost dragon appeared.

With a single breath, the dragon turned the surrounding landscape into a frozen wasteland, engulfed in the harshest winter imaginable.

The frost dragon's power was immense, but it paled in comparison to Yoichi. Enraged at being forcibly summoned, the dragon wanted to lash out.

But it was up against Yoichi.

After a fierce battle, Yoichi broke the frost dragon's wings and claws, severely wounding it. Only after incapacitating the beast did Yoichi use Yin-Yang Release to erase Sadayr's soul and consciousness.

When it came to intelligent creatures, being a jinchūriki was dangerous. If their consciousness wasn't erased, they would constantly try to manipulate the jinchūriki to break free.

With Sadayr subdued, Yoichi had Mina and Kushina seal the frost dragon into Haku. Haku, who already had the Ice Release kekkei genkai, would now be known as the Master of Ice and Snow in the ninja world.

"Hu…"

After the sealing was complete, Haku exhaled a cold breath, causing Itachi and Kimimaro to shiver and step back.

With a soft smile, Haku said to Yoichi, "Thank you, Yoichi-sensei. I feel great now."

Curious, Karin and Naruto couldn't help but reach out and touch Haku, only to shiver violently as they felt the icy coldness radiating from him. It was like touching a block of pure ice.

"Haku, once you've gained better control of your abilities, you'll be able to return to normal. With your skills, it won't take long."

"I understand, Yoichi-sensei~"

Haku's sweet smile made Yoichi's eye twitch. His student's delicate appearance had already attracted a lot of attention from male classmates at the academy. If Haku was this cute as a child, Yoichi couldn't imagine how beautiful he would be as an adult.

"Let's head back. Don't worry, Karin and Naruto. Your turn will come soon enough."

Yoichi spoke, feeling lucky that today's summon hadn't been something useless like a slime. The frost dragon's power and abilities were a perfect match for Haku.

In ten years, both Haku and Sasuke would be among the strongest in the ninja world, second only to those with Six Paths-level power. With Yoichi as their father and teacher, their futures were bright.
