A Person Not Present in the Original Work

[Name: Senju Yuto]

[Vitality: 2700]

[Mental Power: 40]

[Chakra: 80000]

[Jutsu: Sealing Jutsu]

[Special Abilities: Sage Body, Uzumaki Bloodline, Senju Bloodline]

"Hiss..."

Hyuga Hoshishaku gasped.

"What is it, little Hoshishaku?"

Uzumaki Mito's gentle voice rang out.

"Ah, nothing, nothing, it's just, it's just..."

He wanted to find an excuse to brush it off.

But seeing the identical gazes of the mother and son fixed upon him, he immediately decided against lying.

"It's just that his chakra reserves are way too massive."

He gestured with his eyes toward Senju Yuto, who was sitting in a wheelchair.

He didn't know if it was just his imagination.

But he felt that after those words were spoken, Uzumaki Mito's expression dimmed slightly.

Yet she remained gentle, glancing at the young boy's hair whorl before asking softly:

"Hmm... yes, Yuto has been different from others since he was small. By the way, little Hoshishaku, can you see Yuto's chakra even without activating your Byakugan?"

Hoshishaku rubbed the back of his head and answered truthfully:

"Haha, to be honest, I can actually perceive a person's chakra quite intuitively."

"Oh right, and their mental and vital energy too. Just like you, Lady Mito—your chakra reserves must be four times that of Master Tobirama, right?"

"And little Yuto here, his chakra reserves have reached a bit more than half of Master Tobirama's. Plus, his vitality is terrifyingly vigorous, perhaps twenty times that of an ordinary person. It's just that his mental power is a bit low, which is strange; it's much lower than an average person's."

As soon as Hoshishaku finished speaking, Senju Yuto, who had been silent the whole time, suddenly spoke up to ask an unimportant question:

"I'm about the same age as you, why do you call me a little kid?"

"Ah, this."

Hoshishaku thought for a moment and asked: "What year were you born in?"

Senju Yuto replied earnestly: "Year One of Konoha, born on May 1st."

Hoshishaku raised an eyebrow: "I was born on March 3rd, Year One of Konoha. I'm two months and two days older than you, so I can call you little Yuto, and you have to call me Brother Hoshishaku."

"Ah, is that how it works? Isn't the one born in the later month the older one?"

Senju Yuto's face was full of wonder, as if he were encountering this kind of knowledge for the first time.

Looking at the cute child before him, Hoshishaku couldn't help but feel his heart soften, and he took the initiative to explain the relevant knowledge to him.

Meanwhile, Uzumaki Mito, standing to the side, did not listen to the two children's conversation.

The turmoil in her heart at this moment was greater than it had ever been.

Just now, what had she heard?

Not to mention that incredible ability to perceive others' chakra and vitality.

She knew her youngest son, Senju Yuto, had vitality dozens of times that of a normal person, as he was the only one of her three children to inherit Senju Hashirama's special bloodline.

But his mental power was far inferior to a normal person's?

This was something she truly did not know.

Could the root of Yuto's illness lie in his mental power?

Thinking of this, a piercing light flashed in Uzumaki Mito's eyes.

She did not doubt that the child before her was lying.

Because Yuto's chakra was indeed vast, and her own chakra was indeed more than four times that of her brother-in-law.

As a possessor of the Uzumaki clan's bloodline, she was born with powerful sensory abilities.

Hoshishaku, having just finished explaining ages and months to little Yuto, suddenly received a system notification.

[Notification: Fate Commission Quest triggered]

[Can a fate destined to be as brief as a mayfly break free from its established shackles?]

[S-Rank Fate Commission Quest: Rewrite the fate of "Senju Yuto" who is destined to die young]

[Senju Yuto's life countdown: 368 days]

[Commission Issuer: Uzumaki Mito]

[Mission Reward: S-Rank Ninja Full Card]

[Note: If the mission is not completed before the countdown ends, it will be permanently canceled.]

Hoshishaku, who had been playing with Yuto, widened his eyes in shock upon seeing this mission notification.

The red-haired little boy before him actually had only one year of life remaining?

Could it be that this child, who never appeared in the original story, was forgotten because he died young?

What was the cause of his early death?

With such powerful vitality, why would he die young?

Could it be caused by a mental capacity weaker than that of an ordinary person?

Countless questions surfaced in his mind.

At the same time, an irrepressible sense of surprise battered his reason.

The mission reward was actually an S-Rank Ninja Full Card!

Given the nature of this system, an S-Rank Ninja Full Card was definitely a Kage-level ninja, or perhaps even a Kage-level ninja with formidable combat power, approaching the level of a Super Kage!

And right now, it was the sixth year of Konoha.

At this critical juncture, Senju Hashirama would go to fight Uchiha Madara next year, and then pass away in the seventeenth year of Konoha due to the hidden injuries sustained from that battle.

Originally, he had planned to grow up safely until he was seventeen, wait for Senju Hashirama to pass away and the First Shinobi World War to break out, by which time he would have at least saved up over a hundred draws; reaching the strength of an Elite Jonin through card draws would definitely be no problem.

But now, what kind of heaven-defying mission had he received?!

It was actually giving away a Kage-level ninja card directly?!

Hyuga Hoshishaku struggled to suppress his abnormality, and his conversation with Senju Yuto was riddled with logical inconsistencies.

Fortunately, the person he was talking to was a genuine six-year-old child, and Uzumaki Mito's attention was not on him.

Otherwise, with his current performance, his abnormality would certainly have been discovered.

Composing herself, Uzumaki Mito pushed the wheelchair and brought Hyuga Hoshishaku into the house.

She seemed to have some urgent matter; she arranged for someone to look after the two children and, without mentioning anything about studying sealing techniques, left in a hurry.

Hoshishaku did not know that his reminder had given Uzumaki Mito a glimmer of hope.

He simply chatted with Yuto with great patience.

To complete the mission, he couldn't just sit around doing nothing.

"Yuto, what happened to your legs?"

He walked to the side of the wheelchair out of curiosity and leaned over to take a look.

Senju Yuto did not resist, his youthful face filled with helplessness:

"I've been like this since I was little. I can barely stand only when I first wake up every day; usually, I can't walk at all. It feels like there's no strength in them."

Hoshishaku poked his leg with a finger and asked, "Do you have any sensation in your legs?"

Senju Yuto said earnestly, "Of course I do. I'm not paralyzed."

Hoshishaku activated his Byakugan, carefully observing his legs, and continued to ask:

"Then what did the doctors say?"

Senju Yuto looked a bit dejected upon hearing this.

He whispered, "Every doctor says I'm perfectly healthy, and my father and uncle couldn't find any problems either."

"Is that so? Then it might really not be any kind of illness."

Hoshishaku offered words of comfort, his gaze sweeping over every inch of his meridians and bones, yet he still found no issues.

Yuto shook his head and said seriously, "No, I think I must be sick, because I feel like I'm getting worse day by day."

"Two years ago, I needed to sleep thirteen or fourteen hours a day, but this year, I need to sleep fifteen or sixteen hours a day."

Listening to his words, Hoshishaku also felt a sense of worry.

It definitely wasn't a physical illness.

Then what could the reason be?

Looking at the attribute panel detected by the system once more, he suddenly focused his target on the "low" mental capacity of 40 points.
