章 62: Chapter 62: I'm Not Strong Enough Yet
"Can you tell me now, little one, what was the pressure that covered the entire Konoha that day?"
Tsunade looked solemnly at Ryujiro.
Ryujiro had changed into his usual clothes. In less than a month, he had gone from being the captain of the Anbu to assisting the Hokage.
Ryujiro's exposure that day was because the Hidden Sand Village was too arrogant, even wanting compensation from Konoha? It was simply wishful thinking.
Not to mention going to war with the Sand Village, even if it were with the other four major villages, it would be what Ryujiro most anticipated.
The battlefield was the most suitable place to reap souls.
"A Kekkei Genkai."
"I awakened a Kekkei Genkai that can affect souls."
Ryujiro said lightly.
The only explanation for his ability was a Kekkei Genkai.
Many special abilities in the world of Naruto, as well as the special abilities produced by DNA mutations, are referred to as Kekkei Genkais.
A Kekkei Genkai that can affect souls?
Tsunade suddenly widened her eyes, her breathing becoming rapid.
A Kekkei Genkai that can affect souls. No wonder Tsunade felt trembling not out of instinct, but from the pressure her soul couldn't bear.
This little monster was truly astonishing.
"You've killed ninjas from the other four major villages. Aren't you worried that they'll take this opportunity to start the Fourth Great Ninja War?"
Tsunade looked at Ryujiro again, her gaze deep and serious.
Although she appeared unafraid of the onset of war on the surface, it was only superficial.
She didn't want war in her heart either. Tsunade, who had participated in the Third Great Ninja War, knew how cruel war could be once it started.
"The four major villages are not yet at the point of war with Konoha over this trivial matter..."
"In this World, there is a force that is no less than the five great ninja villages."
Ryujiro said indifferently.
He would be the biggest beneficiary once the war started, absorbing souls to perfect the Hogyoku and elevate himself to an even higher level.
"What did you say?"
"A force no less than the five great ninja villages?"
"Ryujiro, what do you know exactly?"
Tsunade looked at Ryujiro with seriousness.
Ryujiro glanced at Tsunade and said lightly, "You should know about Itachi and Kisame showing up in Konoha, right?"
Tsunade nodded.
"They were wearing uniform clothing. Two S-rank wanted rogue ninjas acting together.
Perhaps there is an organization behind them that specializes in recruiting rogue ninjas from other villages."
"If I'm not mistaken, Jiraiya once told you that Orochimaru also joined an organization after leaving the village."
"And this organization is where Itachi and Kisame belong."
After hearing this, Tsunade's face became increasingly solemn. She clasped her hands tightly together.
"I'll disclose a bit of information. The goal of this organization..."
"Is the Tailed Beasts."
What?!
Tsunade stood up completely unsettled, about to continue questioning Ryujiro, only to find that he had disappeared.
The Hokage's office suddenly became empty.
That organization...
Why did Ryujiro know so much about it?
Tsunade knew that Ryujiro wasn't someone who would easily follow orders.
Even though she appointed Ryujiro as the Hokage's assistant, she couldn't fully control him. Initially, she just wanted to understand Ryujiro better.
The curiosity and mystery that Ryujiro brought to Tsunade were unprecedented.
But now, Tsunade felt a vague fear towards Ryujiro. Beneath his seemingly indifferent, friendly demeanor, what exactly was he hiding that made Tsunade afraid?
Would Ryujiro eventually walk the same path as Orochimaru?
...…..
Hidden Sand Village.
"Elder Chiyo! Konoha has crossed its limits!"
"Yes! We're both part of the five great ninja villages, yet Konoha is walking over us!"
"In my opinion, we should unite with the Stone and Cloud Villages and launch a war against Konoha.
Konoha's disregard for consequences led to the slaughter of ninja from other villages."
"Even the Stone and Cloud Villages won't tolerate Konoha's actions."
Launching a war...
Chiyo was even more disappointed in the Sand Village. Did they truly think they could start a war so casually?
The current Sand Village was even less resilient than Konoha to such turmoil.
The only high-level combat power that could stand up in the village was herself, an old relic who had already stepped half into the grave.
Sand Village was truly declining generation by generation.
...
Although Gaara hadn't been subjected to Naruto's talk no jutsu, his personality seemed to have changed since losing to Ryujiro last time.
Of course, Gaara probably only felt fear towards Ryujiro now, a fear that not only Gaara had but also Shukaku.
At this moment, inside Gaara, Shukaku was even more depressed as he lay sulking in his cage.
"That brat from Konoha defeated me without even using chakra?!"
"I can't accept it!"
To think that a grand Tailed Beast like himself had been defeated by a little brat. If those guys found out...
He'd be the shame of the Tailed Beasts!
That Flying Slash was truly a terrifying power.
Now even this little brat Gaara was afraid of that kid from Konoha.
It's ridiculous.
Being beaten up by someone changed his personality. His second personality, which had no bias, had been suppressed out of fear.
It would be difficult for the non-biased second personality of this grand Tailed Beast to come out.
Meanwhile, a few days later, Ryujiro found Jiraiya.
"You want to go to Mount Myoboku?"
"Yeah, I want to learn Sage Jutsu."
Naruto, who was practicing nearby, curiously approached.
"Pervy sage, what's Sage Jutsu? Is it something really powerful?"
Ryujiro and Jiraiya exchanged glances. Naruto was about to ask more questions when...
"Whoosh—"
In an instant, both of them vanished.
Huh?
The wind was a bit noisy. Naruto stood there, stunned for a long while before he snapped out of it and shouted at the top of his lungs.
"Pervy sage! Ryujiro!"
Jiraiya and Ryujiro, in the distance, heard Naruto's roar, their expressions unchanged.
But Naruto's voice was indeed like a humanoid loudspeaker.
Jiraiya and Ryujiro looked at each other in silence for a long time, but finally, Jiraiya spoke first, asking, "Why do you want to go to Mount Myoboku?"
"What else can I do by going to Mount Myoboku?"
"Didn't I just say? I want to learn Sage Jutsu. No one would mind continuing to improve their own strength."
"I'm not strong enough yet."
Jiraiya's expression froze, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly...
Not strong enough?
Is this boy sane?
'You can slice a Tailed Beast with one stroke, and you still think you're not strong enough? If other ninjas heard you say that, they'd be ashamed.'
Whether it's Konoha or people from other villages, no one knew the limits of Ryujiro's strength.
