Originally, Reiki's question was speculative. In the original story, there was no mention of a so-called hidden land within Rouran, but Reiki trusted the map rewarded by the system. The person most likely to be connected to this hidden place and the dragon vein was Queen Sara herself.
"Let's make a deal," Reiki said with an unwavering expression.
"A deal?" Sara scoffed, crossing her arms. "What can a child possibly offer me that would be worth my time? Do you realize who I am?"
"I'm almost nine," Reiki said, his tone casual but confident. "And I'm a Chuunin of Konoha."
He was about to continue when Naruto's laughter interrupted him, "You're a Chuunin at nine? I'm still just a Genin!" The blond boy's face lit up with a grin.
Reiki shot him a dark look that silenced Naruto instantly. The Konoha-nin gulped, remembering tales he'd heard about Reiki in his time.
In Naruto's world, Reiki's name was legendary, spoken with awe and, at times, fear. Rumor had it that even rogue ninja and hired mercenaries in the underworld would avoid provoking a black-haired medic from Konoha who once uttered the chilling words: "I think you need healing."
Reiki sighed, returning his gaze to Sara. "As I was saying, Your Majesty—"
Before he could finish, the guard who had led them into the room burst in, shouting, "I knew something was off with you lot! Ninjas from Konoha, daring to deceive the Queen! Even if I kill you here, Konoha would never dare seek vengeance!"
With a flick of his wrist, he unleashed chakra strings, and five menacing puppets stormed into the room, surrounding Reiki and the others. Each puppet was intricately designed, as powerful as a seasoned Jonin.
Reiki's eyes narrowed. He felt annoyance simmering beneath the surface. "Why can't people just listen?" His patience for interruptions had waned. This man was no foolish Naruto; he deserved no leniency.
"My Queen," Reiki said, the edge of irritation sharpening his tone. "Let me demonstrate why you should consider that deal."
A pulse of chakra burst from Reiki, potent and overwhelming. The surge contained a blend of the energy of the Seven-Tails Chomei and Nine-Tails Kurama, making the air crackle with raw power. Sara staggered back, eyes wide in disbelief at the young boy who exuded such an aura.
Kakashi, realizing the gravity of the situation, pulled Sara back, ignoring her protests. "We should step back, Your Majesty."
Sara struggled for a moment, then froze when she saw Naruto—who had been beaming moments before—now serious, pulling back as well. "Even he knows," she whispered.
Naruto nodded gravely. "Yeah, better listen to them. Teacher Reiki… he's no joke."
The ensuing clash was brief but ferocious. Sparks flew as blades met steel, followed by the sound of splintering wood and the heavy thud of broken puppets. Within moments, what had seemed like a deadly squad of puppets now lay scattered, dismembered at Reiki's feet.
The guard who had burst in was cleaved in two, his torso and legs separated. He gasped, using his hands to pull himself toward his lower half, eyes full of horror. The sight was grotesque, almost surreal, and the room fell silent save for the ragged breathing of the defeated.
Reiki glanced at the ruined guard with disinterest. He flicked his hand, and the guard, along with the shattered puppet parts, fused into a grotesque pile at the corner of the room using the power of his surgery technique.
"Now, about that deal," Reiki said, turning back to Sara, a smile devoid of warmth on his face.
Obito gulped, breaking the silence. "Reiki… he really is a monster in his own right."
Kakashi nodded, sweat beading his brow. "I think you'd be wise to take the deal, Your Majesty. Reiki's kindness is a rare thing; don't test it."
Naruto, wide-eyed and shaking his head, added, "Yeah, totally. Trust me, this is the nice version of him."
Sara's gaze darted between the pile of defeated foes and the unyielding young ninja standing before her. She swallowed hard, her earlier confidence melting away. "If your terms are reasonable, I will… consider them."
Reiki's smile widened as he approached. "Perfect. Let's talk."
