He approached to try to touch her, but the creature suddenly spoke.
"Allow me to introduce myself, I am the guardian of this Lake, Azelf. I have been protecting it and its Pokémon for countless years."
...
Outside of Rin's consciousness.
A worried Kakashi looked intensely at Kenzo.
Kenzo rolled his eyes at this.
"Calm down, man. He's just having a conversation with his Biju."
Upon hearing Kenzo's words, Kakashi was able to calm down to a great extent.
"You worry too much," said Kenzo, but Kakashi didn't pay attention.
Instead, he asked about Obito.
"Do you know where Uchiha Obito is?"
"Do you want to know his whereabouts?" Kenzo asked playfully.
Kakashi nodded.
"It will cost you 200,000 CP."
Kakashi almost choked on his own mask.
He just sold his clan's legacy, including his father's sword, to revive his friend, and you're asking for the same price just for the location of his other comrade.
"Forget it, I'll find him on my own," Kakashi shook his head.
He only needed to know that he was alive. He trusted that he could find him along with Rin.
Kenzo crossed his arms in response to the refusal. This price is not meant to annoy Kakashi.
Obito is one of the many behind-the-scenes bosses in this world. Naturally, the price of his information should match his power.
Otherwise, it would be too easy to spoil his fun.
"You can still work for me, even if you can't buy the information about your friend. Think about increasing your strength. Right now, that Sharingan in your left eye is only holding you back. Your full potential is blocked."
Listening to Kenzo, Kakashi sighed.
"I've tried everything. I think even Lady Kushina wouldn't have a remedy for this. Only by being part of the Uchiha clan can you control it..."
Kakashi was ranting when he suddenly opened his eyes and realized his own words.
"It's true," he said in his mind.
"If he's capable of reviving people, he might also be capable..."
Kakashi lifted his fallen gaze to Kenzo's smiling face.
He didn't know when, but Kenzo was balancing a small vial of blood in his hands.
And upon hearing the words from his mouth, Kakashi felt once again how his world was being subverted.
"Here, I have common Uchiha blood, average Uchiha blood, elite Uchiha blood, and Royal blood. The same blood as the Legendary Sage in the legends."
Kakashi couldn't speak. With this, he finally realized that he had underestimated this man once again.
"Right now, you are someone poor, but your talent is undeniable. If you work for me, you will have a fixed CP salary for each mission."
Kenzo said, but suddenly he felt familiar chakra approaching, so he stopped his words.
"Someone is coming. If you're interested, you can visit me in Yu no Kuni. I'll explain everything about the jobs I offer."
Kenzo disappeared suddenly in a whirlwind of fire.
The next second, a figure with long fiery red hair appeared.
Upon arrival, she clicked her tongue in annoyance at Kenzo's lack of manners.
But then she looked at the person next to Kakashi, in the midst of some kind of trance, and genuinely smiled.
"Rin!" Tears threatened to fall from Kushina's face.
She quickly rushed towards the girl, who was now a grown woman, and embraced her in a maternal hug.
Kakashi, standing to the side, didn't even speak. In fact, he was stiff.
Too embarrassed to still not have the guts to go greet his master's wife.
Unexpectedly, the young woman woke up and was surprised to find herself being hugged so tightly.
The first thought that came to her mind was Kakashi, but then she denied it.
Kakashi wasn't that emotional.
As she opened her eyes.
A woman with intense red hair was hugging her tightly.
"Kushina-san, you're alive too."
It took Rin a moment to process everything that was happening, but her previous encounter with those creatures that seemed otherworldly had subverted her mind.
Making her stronger to process whatever comes ahead.
Kushina let go of Rin and looked into her eyes.
"I guess Kakashi didn't want to revive you with your original age, but well, this way isn't bad either -ttebane ."
Kushina was very excited.
Rin nodded with a kind smile.
"Come to our home, I want to introduce you to Naruto."
Kushina said with excitement.
Upon hearing this, Kakashi became nervous.
"I'm sorry, I'm still on duty."
He tried to excuse himself and escape.
But Kushina wouldn't call him the "Bloody Habanero" if she let him get away.
"Where do you think you're going? Your cowardice is already enough, do you think you can ignore me all the time?" Kushina said, grabbing the dejected Kakashi by the shoulder, preventing his escape.
The growing chakra in Kushina completely immobilized Kakashi, an Elite Jōnin.
He had no choice but to follow his master's wife along with Rin.

Kenzo was about to leave Konoha calmly when a group of 10 masked ninjas surrounded him.
"Halt!" one of them shouted.
"Damn it, what now?"
Kenzo was starting to get annoyed. He wanted to see his beloved disciple, but he kept encountering obstacles in Konoha.
He looked at those surrounding him with a bored look.
"What's the matter?"
"You must be that Uchiha rumored about. Lord Danzo wants to see you," one of the group said in a gruff voice.
"Danzo?" Kenzo suddenly imagined that old man with the bandaged arm.
'If I remember correctly, Konoha demanded a ransom for him. He hasn't learned any humility.' Kenzo thought with a smile.
Although he also thought it would be fun to sell him a few toys in pursuit of his ultimate dream of becoming Hokage.
Right now, Kenzo didn't feel like trading, he just wanted to go back to his land and see Yue.
So he had to decline.
"I'm sorry, but my time is not available for your lord right now. I hope you understand and let me pass."
Upon hearing this, the ten ninjas assumed battle positions.
"We have permission to use force in case of refusal, I'm sorry."
The lead ninja unsheathed his short sword and pointed it towards Kenzo.
Kenzo sighed in annoyance.
Cursing his luck, much like a certain bald man he admires.
Who, no matter what, trouble always finds him when he just wants to work.
