Naruto couldn't help but jump up: "Ha~ that big dog is so cool. I really want to pet it..."

(Moon Wolf King: Damn it, this lord is a wolf, a wolf~)

The other friends were also excitedly watching these giant beasts; since they all belonged to Seigo, there was nothing to fear.

"Radiant Goddess Butterfly."

"Can insects be this powerful too?!"

"That's amazing."

Shino revealed a look of excitement for the first time.

"So pretty~" Ino, Hinata, Sakura, and Tenten, the girls, had their attention fixed right there.

"If I could obtain the genes of that Moon Wolf lord, would I be able to breed even more powerful ninja hounds?" Inoizuka Kiba was also somewhat excited, while Akamaru had long since hidden in his jacket, not daring to poke his head out.

"A butterfly?" Choji's eyes lit up.

Shikamaru: "Divine Deer King, just as lazy as I am."

Rock Lee: "This is youth."

Neji felt a burning sensation in his heart: "Is this the hidden power of the clan? Does Father have it too? Does that mean I..."

Sasuke, meanwhile, felt secret resentment. Senjutsu, summoning beasts—if I could obtain them, would I be able to take revenge on Itachi Uchiha? Would I be able to know the truth of the matter... Seigo, you...

Desire, extreme desire.

At the same time, a wave of annoyance surged up—annoyance that "Hyuga Seigo had hidden so much from him, why wouldn't he hand it over?"

If Seigo knew, he would laugh himself to death. What a joke. If I gave it to you, could you even use it right now? Summoning beasts? You'd be exhausted to death; your chakra isn't enough. Is your constitution even qualified for Senjutsu? Most importantly, what are you to this seat that I should hand everything over to you?

"Honored guests, do not misunderstand. Since you are guests of the Hyuga clan, how could we possibly take action against you?"

"I summoned these many companions from Hundred Beast Mountain."

"It is to prove that the Hyuga have not lied, and to provide a guarantee for what comes next. We have truly rediscovered the lost holy land from the thousand-year heritage of the Hyuga clan."

Hyuga Seigo pressed his hands down in the air, signaling everyone to calm down. His voice was not loud, yet it reached everyone's ears with perfect clarity.

A fine method, such exquisite chakra control.

Everyone marveled inwardly.

"Then what is the meaning of the Hyuga clan head's words?!"

They had already been shocked by Seigo's brilliant talent so many times today that they were already numb, so they were exceptionally calm now.

Damn it, you're strong, you're the boss, you call the shots.

It's your territory anyway.

Do whatever you want.

"Aren't you curious about the secret behind how the Great Elder and the others regained their youth?!" Seigo said in a seductive tone.

"Heh~ you already called it a secret; if we ask, will you tell us? Is it fun to toy with us?" an envoy from another country, jealous of Seigo, said sinisterly.

Seigo saw that he wanted to stir up trouble, but he didn't care and continued to whet everyone's appetite: "Of course, as long as you ask, I will tell you. So, do you want to ask?!~"

"Heh heh~ who wouldn't want to know the secret to regaining youth? Tell us, I want to know." The envoy felt as if he had forced Seigo into a corner, saying triumphantly.

"Alright then. The secret to how my grandfather and the others regained their youth is that the Hyuga clan obtained the Youth-Preserving Pill, a specialty of the holy land." Seigo finally revealed the Hyuga clan's "secret," inwardly thanking that envoy; he had been worried that no one would ask and the atmosphere would go cold.

"What is a Youth-Preserving Pill?!"

"What is that?? Could it be..." Smart people thought back to the youthful appearance the Hyuga elders had regained.

"Is this the secret to regaining youth?"

When Danzo heard this, a flash of inspiration struck his mind, and an idea instantly surged into his heart. He couldn't help but reveal a smug smile, secretly rejoicing: "Good, I've got it!" He glanced in a certain direction, as if giving an order to someone.

Sure enough, that secret agent lived up to expectations and immediately asked: "Oh? What is a Youth-Preserving Pill?"

Seigo was very satisfied with this question, so he continued his explanation. He spoke in a mysterious and captivating tone: "That's right, this is a miraculous secret medicine created by the immortals of Hundred Beast Mountain. It can allow a person to return to their peak period, both in physical vitality and appearance."

However, Seigo changed his tone and added: "But it must be noted that this Youth-Preserving Pill can only restore youth; it cannot grant immortality."

At this moment, Danzo's agent curiously followed up: "Then, does this Youth-Preserving Pill have any side effects?"

Seigo answered without hesitation: "Almost none. It allows the user to maintain their peak state until they reach the end of their natural life. Of course, the premise is not to overexert oneself in battle; after all, it is merely a secret medicine, not an elixir of immortality."

"If you overexert yourself in battle, the medicinal power will be exhausted and you will return to your original state. When the duration of the Youth-Preserving Pill expires, you will also return to your original appearance."

Hearing this, Danzo opened his mouth wide in surprise, muttering to himself: "It's that simple? It can actually make people regain their youth, and there are no side effects..."

Seigo nodded with a smile, confirming it. Subsequently, he continued to explain: "Moreover, the Youth-Preserving Pill has different duration categories, including one-year, three-year, five-year, and the longest, ten-year versions."

Finally, Seigo suddenly stood up and solemnly announced: "I, the Hyuga, have decided to offer a ten-year Youth-Preserving Pill to the Daimyo free of charge!" Having said this, he bowed slightly.

"The Hyuga clan only obtained one ten-year secret medicine. I offer it to you, the most honorable person in the Land of Fire."

Seigo felt that the Daimyo of the Land of Fire had high status and was at the pinnacle of power for an ordinary person; there was no better way to use him for advertising.

"Oh ho ho~ offering it to me?!"

The Daimyo of the Land of Fire was overjoyed. The Hyuga were truly sensible, far better than that Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"Lord Daimyo, for the sake of safety, allow this old man to test the medicine for you..." Faced with the temptation of restored youth, Sarutobi Hiruzen could not help but speak up.

Holy crap! Everyone was stunned.

They had not expected Sarutobi Hiruzen to say such a thing.

Was this a lack of trust in the Hyuga?

"It is fine. This Daimyo trusts that the Hyuga would not harm me. If something were to happen here, it would ruin the Hyuga's thousand-year reputation." The Daimyo of the Land of Fire was no fool.

Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes were practically popping out with greed; that was clearly a treasure. He still gave the Hyuga a subtle, pointed look.

You had better ensure there are no issues, otherwise...

Qingwu smiled: "Of course. With so many clans and envoys from various nations as witnesses, how could the Hyuga possibly cut themselves off from the Ninja World?"

Hearing a satisfactory answer, the Daimyo of the Land of Fire took the pill immediately.

"I..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen was too late to stop him, and Danzo was filled with regret, thinking, I should have been the one to step forward just now...

Yet, he was still harboring doubts.

Perhaps it isn't that effective; maybe the Hyuga just exaggerated the promotion. It's impossible...

"Oh ho ho~" The Daimyo let out a sound of extreme comfort, a cry that sounded as if he had just experienced the ultimate indulgence, reminiscent of the satisfaction one feels after a sauna and a Thai massage.

"Look, the Daimyo has truly changed~"

"He's regained his youth! It really works! The Youth-Preserving Pill of the Hyuga is real, it's real..."

Just then, a shocking transformation occurred. The Daimyo's once pot-bellied frame began to shift. His physique gradually became slender and powerful, his muscle definition sharpened, and his entire being radiated an aura of health and vitality.

In the blink of an eye, the Daimyo had transformed from a greasy middle-aged man into a handsome, muscular young man with a superb figure!

"Holy crap!" Seeing this, the crowd could finally no longer hold back their exclamations. They widened their eyes, staring in disbelief at the change before them: "This is practically comparable to plastic surgery!"

This so-called "divine medicine" was truly this miraculous, capable of causing such a staggering change in a person's appearance.

The women were so excited they nearly went mad, shouting one after another: "I want it, I want it, I want it..." For a moment, the atmosphere at the scene reached a fever pitch.

Faced with this situation, Qingwu quickly took action to avoid an awkward scene.

As the Daimyo began to change, he swiftly cast the Great Outfit Change Technique, replacing the Daimyo's loose, sagging clothes with a well-fitted suit. In this way, the Daimyo looked not only young and handsome but also more distinguished.

Qingwu smiled and said to the Daimyo: "Lord Daimyo, how is it? Are you satisfied?!"

As he spoke, he specifically brought out a large full-length mirror so the Daimyo could clearly admire his new image.

The Daimyo excitedly walked to the mirror and carefully examined his reflection. He nodded with satisfaction and laughed happily: "Oh ho ho~ This Daimyo has truly regained his youth!"

"This is exactly me from thirty years ago! Hahahaha..." Clearly, the Daimyo was extremely satisfied with this transformation; he could not stop grinning, his mood joyous to the extreme. This would make the Daimyos of the Land of Water, Land of Lightning, Land of Earth, and Land of Wind die of envy, hahahaha~

"Hyuga, thank you~ Oh ho ho~"
