Rinnegan · Awakening!!

Three days later!

In the Konoha hospital, Jiraiya, who had previously lost an arm and was severely injured.

was currently lying unconscious in a hospital room!

It wasn't until these three days had passed...

that Jiraiya slowly opened his eyes!

Immediately after, he saw the person he most wanted to see:

"Tsunade..."

"Tsunade?!"

Jiraiya was dazed for a moment, then suddenly reacted and sobered up, immediately eager to get up.

"Hiss...!" However, as he moved his right arm, Jiraiya was in immense pain.

"Don't move. Your injuries have just stabilized!" Tsunade Hime sat beside the bed, watching Jiraiya.

Hearing this, Jiraiya calmed down a bit.

But looking at his missing right arm...

Jiraiya couldn't help but feel bitter in his heart!

"Tsunade, Madara, he... did he do anything to you..."

Afterward, Jiraiya began to ask about Tsunade Hime's well-being.

"Don't worry. He didn't do anything to me!" Tsunade Hime shook her head lightly.

"But didn't he say that because your medical skills are superb, so..." Jiraiya, who had just woken up, had many things on his mind.

Tsunade Hime's expression remained calm, but a hint of helplessness flickered in her eyes: "That was three days ago."

"Three days ago?" Jiraiya was stunned, then realized, "I've been unconscious for three days?"

"If I hadn't treated you, you probably would have slept for seven days and seven nights." Tsunade Hime smiled slightly.

"Tsunade, how can you still smile? Madara... what exactly does he want you to do for him?" Jiraiya became anxious again.

Tsunade Hime sighed slightly, then said, "I know, he... he asked me to correct the erroneous eye meridians connected to his Sharingan, and also..."

Tsunade Hime hesitated.

"And what else?" Jiraiya asked.

"To transplant the cells of two people into his body!" Tsunade Hime continued.

"Transplant cells from two people?" Jiraiya was stunned.

Regarding this:

"One of them, I'm not too sure. But if my senses are correct, one of them... should be Great-Grandfather's cells and flesh!"

Tsunade Hime suddenly said.

"What? First Hokage-sama, Hashirama Senju's cells?!" Jiraiya was shocked.

"Yes! I feel like they are Great-Grandfather's cells!" Tsunade Hime's expression was also solemn.

"That guy Madara, is he trying to obtain the legendary Wood Release power of the First Hokage?" Jiraiya began to guess.

"And the cells of another person, someone even you don't know... for someone like Madara to desire them, they must be extraordinary."

"The Chakra contained within that unknown person's cells and flesh... it feels no less than Great-Grandfather's, perhaps even... stronger!" Tsunade Hime said, looking down.

"What..." Jiraiya was repeatedly shocked.

At the same time, Jiraiya couldn't help but blame her slightly:

"Tsunade, I'm not trying to scold you, but how could you..."

"Kotoamatsukami!" Tsunade Hime's eyes dimmed as she directly uttered three words.

Hearing this...

Jiraiya froze completely!

He instantly understood why Tsunade had transplanted other people's cells into Madara.

"That bastard Madara!!"

Jiraiya's only remaining left hand couldn't help but slam the hospital bed fiercely.

... ...

Meanwhile!

In the "Hokage Building," Chen Yiban had been in seclusion for three days.

As a result, Tsunade had to handle official duties in a temporary office for these three days.

And today, in the dimly lit Hokage Building with its doors and windows tightly shut:

Zing---

A pair of eyes, emitting a captivating pale purple glow with circular ripples, opened at this very moment.

As if just reaching this state!

Awakening!

"My Rinnegan... has finally awakened."

Chen Yiban, at this moment, wore a sinister grin, unable to contain his excitement.

And at this moment, in his eyes, were a pair of pale purple... Rinnegan!!

"Heh, Hahahaha..."

As Chen Yiban, who possessed the power of one of the Uchiha's Four Mad Laughers, he let out an excited, mad laugh once more.

"These eyes..."

"Now this is more like it!!"

He couldn't help but caress his own eyes, the excitement on Chen Yiban's face uncontainable.

"I never expected that by having the power of both Otsutsuki Asura and Hashirama combined within me, I would awaken the Rinnegan in just three days."

"Much, much faster than Uchiha Madara in the original story, who awakened them while on the brink of death."

"Good! Very good!"

"This ocular power..."

"No, my Chakra has also received a significant boost."

"Ha, Hahahaha..."

Chen Yiban felt his ocular power and Chakra surge, his excitement growing even more.

He laughed maniacally!

The next moment:

"Limbo... Border Jail!!"

Suddenly, Chen Yiban's [Rinnegan] eyes snapped open.

Activating his own [Rinnegan - Dojutsu].

However, it seemed as though nothing had happened.

Yet, under the appearance of nothing happening, within Chen Yiban's gaze from his [Rinnegan] eyes, he could clearly see...

four [Limbo: Shadows] appearing beside him!

"It really is Limbo: Border Jail."

"It seems to be because I have Uchiha Madara's combat power template!"

"But, that's great too!"

Chen Yiban thought with a private smile.

"Right, System, fuse [Amenotejikara] for me as well."

"It should be possible, right?"

As a thought struck him, Chen Yiban suddenly spoke as if to the air in the dimly lit room of the Hokage building.

[Affirmative. And a perfect fusion will be performed for you!]

[Now, commencing fusion!]

In the void, only Chen Yiban could hear and see the system's response.

And with a "zing":

The very next second, Chen Yiban felt the ocular power within his [Rinnegan] eyes surge.

Soon, he felt a new Rinnegan Dojutsu – Amenotejikara – added to his arsenal!!

"This feeling..."

"So comfortable!"

"Hee, Hahahahaha!!!"

Chen Yiban was ecstatic.

One hour later!

Around noon, nearing lunchtime.

Creak—

The door to the Hokage's office in the Hokage building was finally opened.

Then, Chen Yiban slowly walked out from within!

At this moment, he had concealed his Rinnegan, his eyes returning to their usual black pupil state.

And as he opened the door to the Hokage's office, which he had occupied for several days:

"Hm?"

Chen Yiban immediately saw a somewhat small figure standing outside the door.

It seemed they had been waiting for him!

"Elder Brother Ban!"

Seeing Chen Yiban finally emerge from the room, Sasuke Uchiha couldn't help but step forward with joy in his eyes.

Then he bowed to Chen Yiban before him!
