After Tsunade left, Rogge came to a quiet spot in the forest behind Konoha.

The vegetation here was lush, and the surroundings were peaceful and serene—an ideal place for training.

Rogge first decided to practice a Lightning Release technique—Lightning Cutter.

He stood in an open clearing, his eyes shut as he focused on sensing the flow of chakra within his body.

A moment later, he opened his eyes and rapidly formed hand seals.

As his hand seals changed, blue arcs of electricity began to flicker around Rogge's body.

With a low shout, he gathered chakra in his right hand, concentrating intense lightning power in his palm.

Rogge fixed his gaze on a large tree ahead of him, then suddenly charged forward and swung his right hand.

A dazzling flash of lightning streaked through the air. Lightning Cutter struck the tree in an instant, snapping it in two and leaving the cut blackened and scorched.

Rogge looked at the result and nodded in satisfaction.

"Not bad. My Lightning Cutter is several times stronger than Kakashi Hatake's original version. It has reached the destructive power of an S-rank ninjutsu. Below the Six Paths, anyone hit by it dies!"

Next, Rogge began practicing a Wind Release technique—Gale Palm.

He walked to an open area and felt the gentle breeze blowing against him.

Then, he formed hand seals and gathered chakra in both palms.

As chakra flowed into them, powerful currents of air began to form around Rogge's hands.

He gave a loud shout and thrust both palms forward.

A powerful wind blade howled forth, slicing a massive boulder ahead of him in half.

Feeling the power of the Wind Release technique, Rogge's heart brimmed with accomplishment.

"The Grindlord System really is absurd. As long as proficiency rises, I can quickly master a ninjutsu! The cutting power of my Wind Release Gale Palm is several times stronger than Nagato's original version. Even diamond probably couldn't stop it."

After that, Rogge began practicing a Water Release technique—Water Dragon Bullet Technique.

He came to a stream, crouched down, and touched the cool water with his hand.

Feeling the water's flow and power, Rogge formed hand seals.

Before long, the stream began to surge, and a massive water dragon gradually took shape.

Rogge controlled the water dragon, making it coil and soar through the air.

Its body was crystal-clear and radiated a formidable aura.

Rogge commanded the water dragon to charge at a distant mountain peak. It slammed into the mountain with a thunderous boom, sending rocks flying in every direction.

Next, Rogge began practicing an Earth Release technique—Earth-Style Wall.

But unlike Kakashi Hatake, he had no intention of messing around by adding a dog's head to the wall.

He found an open patch of land, formed hand seals, and injected chakra into the ground.

As chakra flowed in, the earth began to shake, and an enormous earthen wall rose from underground.

The wall was tall and sturdy, exuding a heavy, solid presence.

Rogge stood behind the earthen wall and felt the defensive power of the Earth Release technique.

"Incredible. If Earth Release is used well, it can truly move mountains and fill seas!"

Finally, Rogge began practicing a Fire Release technique—Dragon Flame Technique.

He stood in an open area, formed hand seals, and gathered chakra in his mouth.

Then he suddenly spat out a massive ball of flame.

The flames coiled and danced through the air, gradually taking the shape of a giant dragon.

The Dragon Flame Technique radiated scorching heat, inspiring fear at the mere sight of it.

Rogge controlled the Dragon Flame Technique and sent it charging toward a distant forest.

The flaming dragon instantly set the forest ablaze, and the fire rapidly spread.

Looking at the flaming dragon he had created, Rogge muttered to himself, "It's somewhat weaker than the destructive power of my Magma-Magma Fruit ultimate—Meteor Volcano—but it's decent enough."

Just as Rogge was immersed in training, the silence of the forest behind Konoha was broken by a set of light footsteps.

Rogge raised his eyes slightly and saw Kushina Uzumaki appear in his field of vision like a beautiful ray of scenery.

She held a box of ramen bought from Ichiraku Ramen Shop, a gentle smile on her face. That smile seemed capable of melting all the ice in the world.

"Rogge, you're training so seriously! I was worried you'd be hungry, so I brought you ramen." Kushina's voice was clear and pleasant, like a mountain spring.

She approached Rogge with light steps.

Looking at Kushina, Rogge felt an indescribable warmth rise in his heart.

He quickly held out both hands and carefully accepted the ramen.

"Thank you, Kushina." Rogge's lips curled into a smile.

Kushina looked at the area where Rogge had been training, surprise appearing in her eyes.

Her gaze swept back and forth across the places where Rogge had just used his ninjutsu, as though she were recalling the breathtaking scene from moments ago.

"Wow, the ninjutsu you were practicing just now was amazing!" Kushina's face was full of admiration.

Rogge smiled, pride welling up inside him.

He lifted his chin slightly and said confidently, "Of course! I'm the man who will become the god of the ninja world!"

Determination gleamed in Rogge's eyes, and his tone was filled with confidence.

Absolute confidence born from absolute strength!

Kushina nodded, her eyes full of trust and anticipation.

"Mm, I believe you can do it. But you should still take care of yourself. Don't exhaust yourself." Kushina's voice was gentle and concerned.

"Got it." Rogge couldn't help reaching out to pat Kushina's head.

His movement was gentle and natural, as though it were something he had long been accustomed to doing.

Rogge's eyes were full of affection and care. The way he looked at Kushina was like she was his most precious treasure.

"Don't pat my head. I won't grow taller..." Though Kushina enjoyed it inwardly, her mouth remained stubborn.

She furrowed her brows slightly and pretended to be angry, but there was no anger in her eyes at all. Instead, they were filled with shyness and delight.

"Hehe, how about I marry you when you're an adult?" Rogge wore a mischievous smile, his eyes full of teasing and anticipation.

He deliberately teased Kushina, wanting to see how she would react.

Kushina's face instantly turned bright red. She shyly turned away, not daring to look Rogge in the eyes.

"Hmph! No way." Kushina's voice was soft, but full of embarrassment and nervousness.

Feeling as though he were teasing a child, Rogge smiled indulgently. "Alright, alright, I'll stop teasing you. Let's share the same bowl of ramen."

Rogge's eyes were full of gentleness and care. The way he looked at Kushina was like she was the person closest to him.

"Fine, for the ramen's sake, I won't hold it against you." The moment food was mentioned, Kushina was no longer shy. Her eyes even lit up.

She turned around and looked at the ramen in Rogge's hands.

Rogge and Kushina sat on a rock and ate the ramen together.

Their movements were gentle and natural, as though it were something they did all the time.

From time to time, Rogge looked up and watched Kushina eat with great relish, feeling deeply satisfied.

This was the life a transmigrator was supposed to live!

Kushina... Rogge was raising her as a girlfriend-in-training. Only when the fruit was ripe would he slowly savor it.

After they finished eating, Kushina stood up and patted the dust off her clothes.

"I should head back. Teacher Jiraiya said he's going to teach me a new ninjutsu today!"

After Kushina left, Rogge also tidied up and prepared to go home for an afternoon nap.

As he walked home, he was in an especially good mood.

Sunlight filtered through the gaps in the leaves and fell across him, as though draping him in a golden cloak.

However, at that moment, his Observation Haki suddenly sensed an unfamiliar yet powerful presence approaching him.

Rogge's heart tightened. He immediately stopped walking and warily looked around.

Confusion and vigilance flashed through his eyes.

When he turned around, he saw that Kushina had caught up to him.

"Rogge, I suddenly remembered that there's something else I want to tell you." Kushina approached Rogge with a smile.

Her smile was still gentle as water, but Rogge noticed something unusual in her eyes.

Rogge sneered inwardly, though he outwardly acted as if nothing were wrong and replied with a smile, "Oh? What is it?"

Rogge's eyes were full of vigilance, and his body tensed slightly, ready to deal with any possible danger.

As she approached, Kushina said casually, "I forgot to remind you earlier—don't overdo your training. Don't tire yourself out."

Kushina's voice was still gentle, but Rogge caught a trace of stiffness in her tone.

Rogge nodded slightly, but his gaze remained fixed on every one of her movements. His mind raced as he considered every possibility.

Kushina continued saying inconsequential things, trying to lower Rogge's guard.

However, Rogge's Observation Haki remained firmly locked onto her. His body stayed slightly tense as he watched for any sign of an attack.

As Kushina drew closer and closer, Rogge could sense the faint killing intent emanating from her.

Yet he remained calm, waiting for the best moment.

Finally, Kushina decided the time had come and suddenly launched her attack.

She instantly dispelled her Transformation Technique and revealed her true appearance. She was actually a man as skinny as a monkey, wearing a white fox mask and dressed entirely in black.

Matsuda Shinya gripped a sharp kunai and stabbed it toward Rogge.

Rogge had long been prepared. The instant his opponent moved, he swiftly sidestepped and easily avoided the fatal strike.

"Hmph. I saw through your little trick long ago." Rogge looked coldly at Matsuda Shinya.

Matsuda Shinya's expression changed, but he quickly regained his composure.

"As expected of Konoha's genius. You actually saw through my Transformation Technique. But you still won't escape today." Matsuda Shinya's eyes were filled with killing intent.

With that, Matsuda Shinya once again brandished his kunai and charged at Rogge.
