Kapitel 72: Chapter 72: Acquiring the Kusanagi Sword

Read 20+ Chapter's Ahead in Patreon

Kyosuke silently stared at the monk before him for a long time before suddenly asking, "Forget threats for now, what exactly do you want from me?"

He almost wanted to add, "Should I help you clean out your ears?"

A shrunken Isshiki Otsutsuki, using his eye technique Sukunahikona, had parasitized the monk's ear.

Once a dignified Otsutsuki, whose status surpassed even Kaguya's, he was now reduced to spending his days surrounded by earwax.

The thought was honestly quite pitiful.

At first, Kyosuke had been wary, but now he could see through that this guy is strong on the outside and weak on inside.

Sure, he could erupt with a power that temporarily overshadowed the entire ninja world, but that only lasted a few minutes before fizzling out. Without a suitable vessel to reincarnate into, the Otsutsuki would face true death.

Knowing this, Kyosuke realized he had nothing to fear. Even if he publicly exposed the monk's identity, Jigen, the monk, would have no choice but to flee in disgrace unless it was a life-or-death situation.

With this understanding, Kyosuke wasn't intimidated at all.

In response to Kyosuke's inquiry, Jigen spoke calmly: "Become my ally, and I will grant you eternal life."

"Eternal life?" Kyosuke sneered mockingly, pretending not to understand. "By eating vegetarian and chanting with you, Master?"

"Of course not," the monk replied, shaking his head with great patience.

Having lived for thousands of years, he had encountered countless people and events. His once-proud sharpness was now deeply tempered. A few casual remarks weren't enough to anger him.

"I'll take my leave so you can talk in peace," the host excused himself wisely, knowing better than to pry into matters unrelated to his monetary dealings with Jigen.

Eternal life?

Ha, what a joke. Promising freedom for every slave sounded just as hollow. In reality, no one had ever left his clutches alive.

Once the host departed, Jigen began explaining the existence of the chakra fruit. He withheld specific methods but promised that once the fruit was obtained in the future, Kyosuke could share in its bounty—provided he became Jigen's ally.

"Take your time deciding," Jigen said, rising and glancing toward the host's retreating figure. "But make it quick—threats are already closing in around you."

Kyosuke scoffed inwardly. Do I look like someone who scares easily?

Retracting his gaze, Kyosuke realized the monk had vanished without a trace.

Playing tricks again!

Mimicking the monk, Kyosuke used space-time ninjutsu to leave the room.

In the lounge, Sanfeng had written down the Eight Inner Gates training methods and summarized key precautions based on his experience.

"Sir, it's yours." He understood very well that identity would change with one's position.

"Good," Kyosuke nodded, pulling a letter from his pocket and handing it to him. "Deliver this for me. From now on, stay within the Hyuga clan's territory."

The letter was addressed to Yayoi Hyuga, roughly outlining the presence of a certain man as a precaution for her safety.

Sanfeng wanted the freedom, and Kyosuke agreed to give it to him, but it would be a big mistake to think that he could completely let go.

At least he should try his best to play his due role, such as running errands and killing people for Hyūga Yayoi.

After dismissing the Taijutsu expert, Kyosuke quickly found the long-waiting young snake Manda.

Using a summoning scroll, he absorbed the snake's blood, knowing that reverse summoning would soon take him to Ryuchi Cave.

Glancing back at the hidden island, Kyosuke felt a tinge of sentiment. "The secrets of the Eight Inner Gates, Swift Release... who knows what other powers lie hidden here."

The appearance of Jigen further reinforced Kyosuke's awareness of constant danger.

Patting the papers in his pocket, Kyosuke resolved to begin training in the Eight Inner Gates Formation as soon as possible. Until he reached the Six Paths level, this technique would significantly enhance his strength.

Although the training was grueling and often took decades of hard work, even unlocking the first few gates would provide a considerable chakra boost.

"Still, this trip was worth it."

With a smile, Kyosuke disappeared from the island.

Ryuchi Cave

"Sister Togorihime Kami, I'm back!"

The young snake lay contentedly on the ground, its eyes squinting in delight despite being berated by Togorihime.

As for Kyosuke, he had obtained the Kusanagi Sword preserved in Ryuchi Cave.

Zzzz!

Blinding lightning illuminated the dark cave like daylight.

"Perfect conductivity. It lives up to its name as a legendary weapon," Kyosuke remarked, clearly pleased.

Previously, achieving the same effect required three to four times as much chakra. Now, just a tiny activation of Lightning Release chakra turned the sword into a devastating Chidori Blade.

He swung the blade lightly at a nearby boulder, which split cleanly in two without any resistance.

"Incredible sharpness—ordinary kunai couldn't withstand its slashes."

Armed with the Kusanagi Sword, Kyosuke's Kenjutsu capabilities skyrocketed. Facing the Senju Clan would now be far easier.

"That's enough; you can leave now," Togorihime said irritably, clearly upset by his property damage.

Like a scorned partner, she swiftly changed her attitude after Kyosuke had gotten what he wanted.

Rolling his eyes, Kyosuke asked, "Now that I'm a contract holder, who'll respond to my summons in the future?"

He glanced at the young snake, hoping it wouldn't be his default partner.

The small snake blinked pitifully, clearly hurt by his unspoken thoughts.

"Don't worry," Togorihime waved dismissively. "The White Snake Sage specifically arranged for powerful summons to answer your call."

"Good." Kyosuke patted the young snake's head before departing Ryuchi Cave.

Watching him leave, Togorihime muttered through gritted teeth, "To hell with it. I'm not seducing him—anyone else can do it."

"Sister Togorihime, why would you seduce Lord Kyosuke?"

"Mind your own business, kid!"

"Oh... okay."

---

After leaving Ryuchi Cave, Kyosuke swiftly made his way toward the battlefield to face the Senju in the decisive clash.

The Uchiha were at their limit; retreating further would expose their heartlands.

To protect their families, every Uchiha fought desperately, including their young clan leader, Uchiha Madara.

"Hashirama!"

"Madara!"

The two clashed in a fierce confrontation.

Kapitel 73: Chapter 73: The Longest Journey Is Hashirama's Schemes

Read 20+ Chapter's Ahead in Patreon

On the battlefield, Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama had become the most dazzling stars.

Anyone below Jonin level would essentially meet death if they got involved.

Even Jonin could easily lose their lives with just a single misstep when facing these two.

Eventually, both sides agreed to let these prodigious young clan leaders handle things themselves.

Fire release: Great Fire Annihilation!

Uchiha Madara's growing strength exuded an increasingly commanding aura.

A fan-shaped inferno swept forward, leaving many Uchiha who prided themselves on mastering fire-style techniques utterly awestruck.

"The young clan leader is a genius among geniuses."

"I heard that Kyosuke from the southern forces is also quite remarkable."

"Who knows? I still think Lord Madara is stronger."

The sea of fire advanced, burning everything in its path.

Seeing this, Hashirama sighed, realizing that his friend was once again getting overly serious.

"Why take it so seriously? Isn't it better to pretend?"

Clapping his hands together, wooden walls burst from the ground, quickly forming a formidable barrier.

No matter how ferocious the flames were, they couldn't break through the unified defense.

Wood Style: Tree Wall Barrier!

Hashirama had become adept at using Wood Style techniques.

However, limited by his current strength, he couldn't yet unleash powerful moves like the Wood Dragon, Wood Golem, or even Deep Forest Emergence.

Nevertheless, his abilities had grown significantly, making him resistant to most conventional ninjutsu.

"Damn Wood Style," Madara muttered, annoyed. If long-range attacks didn't work, he would settle things in close combat.

With the Sharingan's support, he was confident that Hashirama wasn't his match.

He activated the Body Flicker Technique, a deceptively simple yet effective move.

In an instant, Madara vaulted over the wooden barricade, appearing directly above his friend.

"Prepare to die, Hashirama!" he shouted, swinging his scythe in a vicious downward arc.

Hashirama dodged by ducking, but he overlooked Madara's already-prepared fan in his left hand.

Whack!

The fan smacked Hashirama's head, sending him flying. Before he could hit the ground, Madara was already upon him again.

"You've lost," Madara declared, his tone cold and brimming with confidence.

Hearing this, Hashirama twisted his body despite the scythe inches from his face, extending one hand toward his friend.

Wood release: Smothering Binding Technique!

Wooden tendrils erupted from his arm, wrapping around Madara in an instant. No matter how he struggled, the bindings wouldn't budge.

"Haha!"

Hashirama laughed foolishly.

But before the laugh faded, Madara shook his head and vanished with a poof.

"Surprised?"

Madara's scythe pierced through Hashirama's back, the blade emerging from his chest and shattering his chest armor.

"This is Kyosuke's Shadow Clone technique. Unless you have a highly advanced Sharingan, it's impossible to discern."

"Blame yourself for not being an Uchiha," Madara said coldly, though his trembling voice betrayed his hesitation.

Should he truly kill Hashirama?

Though he had resolved to do so, at the critical moment, he deliberately avoided striking any vital organs.

Despite the seemingly severe wound, Hashirama's internal organs were unharmed. For someone as resilient as him, a month of rest would suffice for full recovery.

"Madara, you're such a weak-willed fool," Madara muttered, attempting to provoke himself into action.

But no matter how much he tried, he couldn't bring himself to deal a fatal blow.

"Madara," Hashirama's trembling hand reached out, his voice weak, "I... I'm not going to make it. Do you... still remember our dream? Our friendship?"

What's happening?

Madara's eyes widened in panic, thinking he might have accidentally hit a vital point.

"Don't move! I'll get a medical-nin right now. Hang on!" he said frantically.

"Don't go," Hashirama grabbed him, his eyes filled with a hazy, dying glow. "I've been dying for a while. Wood Style has consumed too much of my life force. As your best friend, I'm happy you could send me off."

"Hashirama..."

"Tell me, Madara, do you still remember our dream?"

Holding his friend's hand, Madara wanted to say that not only did he remember, but he knew Kyosuke still held onto it too.

But before he could speak, Hashirama's body shattered into pieces of wood.

"Damn it!"

Hashirama emerged from behind the wooden wall, slamming his hand down in frustration, his face full of regret.

So close. He had been so close to getting Madara to open up.

If he could just speak the words, their relationship wouldn't have to remain as it was.

"Haha," Hashirama awkwardly scratched his head, muttering, "That's my new Wood Style technique. Even the Sharingan can't see through it, can it?"

Hearing this, Madara couldn't help but recall the earlier scene.

His anger flared uncontrollably.

Uchiha Madara: (╬◣д◢) "You bastard, I'm going to kill you today!"

Furious and humiliated, the "Dance King" charged at Hashirama, and the two clashed again.

Fire Style: Dragon Flame Song Technique!

Four fiery dragons roared toward their target.

Forest Barrier!

Fire Style: Great Fire Destruction!

The fireball, resembling a falling meteor, was far more potent and expansive than the Great Fireball Technique.

Hashirama: "My Forest Barrier!"

"Damn it, Hashirama, don't you have any other jutsu?!"

Madara realized that facing this guy made it too easy for him to lose his usual composure.

Despite knowing better, he always ended up matching ninjutsu with him.

Taking a deep breath, Madara regained his calm and used Body Flicker Technique to close in on Hashirama again.

"Now, it's a life-or-death battle, Hashirama!"

With his ancestral scythe, Madara dominated in close combat, having relied on it to win several previous fights.

However, the Senju clan also had their fair share of legendary weapons.

Seizing an opportunity when Madara was pushed back by Wood Style, Hashirama retrieved a scroll from his waist, performed a series of seals, and unsealed a pair of sharp dual blades.

Madara wielded a scythe in his right hand and a fan in his left, so Hashirama naturally countered with twin swords.

That's only fair!

"Madara!"

"Hashirama!"

Both unleashed their chakra to the fullest, clashing like two titans, creating shockwaves that shook the battlefield for hundreds of meters.

Amid the chaos, a figure wielding a short sword crept closer.

The target? A fatigued Uchiha Madara, momentarily drained from the intense battle.
