After That, He Still Remembered Tsunade by the Campfire on That Snowy Night
Yakumo Kurama would never have imagined that he would have such a role in the eyes of the blond boss, creating a virtual world comparable to the Infinite Tsukuyomi, the kind that one could freely enter and exit.
After leaving the Land of Snow Palace, Naruto sought out Yakumo Kurama, who was still in the Land of Snow Capital City.
"No, I don't want it anymore!"
Yakumo Kurama's first reaction upon seeing Naruto was to hide, as if he had encountered some great terror, turning and running away like a little mouse.
"Stop!" Naruto called out to her.
"Waaah." Yakumo Kurama dared not disobey his orders and stood there blankly. "Master, why don't you just me away? Don't torture me."
"What are you talking about?" Naruto said, speechless. "I'm giving you some Chakra, and you're not happy about it? Isn't it better to just stand there and get stronger?"
"Master, sob sob sob, I'd rather get stronger lying down." Yakumo Kurama looked resentful, and since he couldn't run away, he simply plopped down on the ground. "Anyway, I don't want to be injected with Chakra again!"
"You're so pathetic. Get up now, stop embarrassing yourself here." Naruto yanked him up, Yakumo Kurama crossed his arms, looking unwilling.
"Pour it into my mouth, and I'll scream!"
"Stop fooling around, I have something important to discuss with you today." Naruto picked him up with his hand. "I'm planning to create a virtual game world, and I need your help."
"What world?" Yakumo Kurama was stunned.
"A virtual game." Naruto released her, stood there for a moment and thought, then explained, "It's basically creating another world, like a game, where you can enter and exit freely."
"How could such a thing exist? It simply doesn't exist," Yakumo Kurama said bluntly.
"Why not? How can something that can't be drawn become real?" he asked doubtfully. "I remember this is a kind of Genjutsu. The game world is also virtual, and to some extent, it is also a kind of Genjutsu."
"That's true, but in practice it's very different," she explained. "Creating a virtual world isn't too difficult, but I control it all."
"If the people who entered the illusion collectively want to escape, it's simple: just cancel the illusion, and they can use the Dreamscape Canvas again next time."
"Isn't this good?" Naruto stepped on the ground and found that it was already hardening. Winter came earlier in the Capital City of the Land of Snow than in other places.
The capital city is somewhat better off, at least it has a geothermal system to maintain the temperature, while the area outside the capital of the Snow Kingdom is already a vast expanse of ice and snow.
"It's impossible to break free on our own, and customizing the illusion is also very troublesome. Once we break free, it's a complete break for everyone," Yakumo Kurama pointed out the most critical difficulty.
"Can't it be like Infinite Tsukuyomi?" he muttered to himself, looking down.
"What Tsukuyomi?" Yakumo Kurama tilted his head, looking puzzled.
"It's nothing." Naruto coughed and gestured with his hands. "If, and I mean if, there were a Genjutsu that could make everyone's wishes come true in their dreams, but they just couldn't break free from it."
"Huh? Isn't that death?" Yakumo Kurama was slightly taken aback, thinking to himself, isn't being unable to wake up the same as being dead? Is it necessary to put it so poetically?
"I guess so, but this kind of Genjutsu does exist. As long as we can solve the last step, we can enter and exit freely. Hmm, do you have any good ideas?"
"This... the Longest Dream, sounds rather wicked." Yakumo Kurama pondered seriously, touching her face, before frowning and saying.
"If such a thing really existed, many people wouldn't even want to escape from a dream. Let alone realize it, it's terrifying just to hear about it."
"I understand." Naruto already had a bold idea in his mind: he didn't plan to slice Kaguya into pieces; it would be better to use her directly as the Dream Mother.
This directly propelled the Shinobi World from a semi-technological era into the cyberpunk era. As for the issue of dreams, we can study that later.
Either a custom template dream is created, or a forced exit is set; in short, players have no right to dream independently and can only play within the dream according to the settings.
Naruto originally just wanted Yakumo Kurama to use her abilities to speed up the development of the Genin world game so that he could relax and enjoy himself for the next thirty years.
After actually looking into it, I discovered that Yakumo Kurama couldn't do it, but Kaguya could.
This completely elevated Kaguya's value, transforming her from a fragmented experimental subject into the game's foundation. Brilliant! Naruto was instantly motivated.
"Okay, you go ahead, I'll contact you when I hear from you," he said.
"What news?"
"You don't need to worry about it." Naruto smiled mysteriously, then suddenly remembered something, "How are you doing here? Should we transfer you to the Hydrangea?"
"Really?" Yakumo Kurama's eyes lit up. He didn't expect that this shameless blond guy would actually be considerate of him. "It's alright here, it's just a bit boring, no one talks."
"But I can't be left here, and I can't leave the Hydrangea area either, can I?"
"Hmm," Naruto thought for a moment, "The Hydrangea area isn't that important. How about this, I'll transfer her over to work with you."
Konan has almost completely taken control of the Four Small Nations Alliance of the Land of Rain. Hydrangea, the vanguard, can be withdrawn. One more or one less makes no difference.
"Hehe, thank you, Master!" Yakumo Kurama immediately changed her tone, speaking in a sweet, coquettish voice.
"Hiss~ You're doing this..." Naruto didn't linger and quickly left the scene.
After bringing the Hydrangea to the Land of Snow, Naruto spent the next few days constantly traveling. He might be in the Land of Grass in the morning and in the Land of the Falls in the afternoon.
He didn't need to worry about Konohagakure at all. Apart from needing to go home every two or three days, he was basically completely free the rest of the time.
Since the Uzumaki Manor has only just broken ground, it will take at least another month to complete. Unlike the rough little wooden houses that rise from the ground Yamato those in Yamato, this is a real manor.
This was originally against the rules, since Konohagakure is a ninja village and it's impossible to allow anyone to build a manor outside the village. But in the end, Naruto said that he wouldn't live there permanently, so he decided against it.
Then he proposed leaving Konohagakure to build a manor. At this point, the Konoha High Command seemed to wake up and agreed to his proposal to build a manor outside Konohagakure.
Naruto doesn't actually stay there often; he just wants a place to stay while he's away.
Putting the manor aside, he spent some time buying Konoha Street 404 along with the neighboring 403 and 405, and immediately began renovations.
There's no need for him to leave Konohagakure, because he has the Gate of Hades, which is even more useful than Doraemon's Anywhere Door. He is free, but Konohagakure no longer has any influence over him; where he stays is entirely up to them.
In short, it's wise to buy houses both inside and outside the property; it's better to be prepared.
And so, as the Tenten went by, his daily life was almost Tenten same. He spent his days having fun with people, and his evenings playing games with his wife and children.
They either work as supervisors or do manual labor at night, while the children are taken care of by dedicated caregivers. From the very beginning, these young parents lose the right to be tormented by their children, leaving them with nothing but pleasure at a young age.
After some time, he finally realized that something was wrong.
Wait a minute, didn't Black Zetsu run away with the Nine Tailed Beasts I gave him? How come there hasn't been a sound for so long? And what about Kaguya? Isn't she going to be resurrected?
Oh no, could it be that Kaguya was already resurrected? Infinite Tsukuyomi started without her knowledge?
Then I thought about it again, and that didn't Genjutsu. I'm immune to genjutsu! Forget about Infinite Tsukuyomi, even Kaguya herself using Genjutsu on me didn't work.
After all, he no longer relies on Chakra to fight; he can barely fight by relying solely on Forbidden Jutsu from the system.
After much deliberation, Naruto decided to go and see the disappointing Black Zetsu.
Damn, they've completely fallen apart after losing Obito Uchiha and Kabuto. This Black Zetsu. They're so weak they're practically useless. No wonder they haven't accomplished anything in a thousand years; they could starve to death even if you fed them.
Without further ado, Naruto dealt with some trivial matters and set off three days later for a long-distance Space-Time Ninjutsu. His main objective was to retrieve Black Zetsu and, incidentally, find Tsunade.
Naruto's wedding was so sudden that Tsunade was completely out of contact. Even if she received the news, given her personality, it was impossible for her to come back in time.
However, he still had to give her what she deserved. Naruto's feelings towards Tsunade were unclear. In short, she was both his teacher and friend, and their relationship was quite complex.
The two had quite a few entanglements. She was like a strong ray of sunshine, shielding Naruto from the storms when he wasn't so powerful.
Naruto still remembers the hot spring trip on the way to the Five Kage Summit, and the heart-to-heart talk by the campfire. He doesn't know when he finally realized that Tsunade had never treated him like a child from the very beginning.
The lodgings in the Land of Iron were rather simple. I only remember that snowy night, with a small wooden window and a cup of hot tea sitting quietly on the table. Tsunade crossed, silently watching the thick darkness outside.
When Naruto asked, Tsunade and didn't say anything more.
Later, the powerful princess of the Senju Clan dragged all the old fogies of Konohagakure into her scheme and then left the village.
After that, he lost all contact with Tsunade, and even someone he thought would be easy to find disappeared like snowflakes returning to dust.
Even though he knew that Tsunade definitely hadn't hidden anything, it wasn't like her.
But fate seems to enjoy playing tricks on people like this. The Gate of Hades can only be accessed by jumping according to coordinates, and whether you can find it depends entirely on luck. You might miss it countless times, or perhaps the next jump will lead you to the traces of her life somewhere.
In the period leading up to his marriage, Naruto had almost forgotten about Tsunade and couldn't even remember what she looked like. He only vaguely recalled those days in the middle of the night after waking up.
On a snowy night, in a hot spring separated by a bamboo partition, Tsunade gathered her thick golden hair and plunged into the water with a splash. Her snow-white skin rippled in the hot spring.
She turned her head and asked, "Are you still wearing the necklace I gave you?"
He would occasionally recall Tsunade's voice, only to forget it again a second later.
Although Naruto didn't think Tsunade would care about him, and perhaps she had long forgotten his prank, a sense of regret lingered in his heart.
When I have free time, a thought always unconsciously arises in my mind.
Go find her.
The reward for Mission 3 is to Return to Youth. Naruto doesn't know how Senju Clan will choose her life after Return to Youth, but the unknown is also the best interpretation of the ending of their relationship.
Before the coordinate jump, he was still thinking about how he should greet the Lord Hokage if he really met Tsunade.
Perhaps it's because we haven't seen each other in a long time, or perhaps it's to gamble with her again. In any case, she always loses when she gambles and has already lost most of her life, so she probably won't refuse to gamble one more time.
