While Jiraiya may be full of flaws, you have to admit that his intelligence gathering ability is second to none, coupled with his formidable personal strength.
Yuzuru may not care, Sea Capital may not care, and even the Land of Water may not care, but the more indifferent they are, the easier it is for him to discover something.
The most terrifying thing about this kind of person is that you can't ignore him, and you can't control him either. No matter how you deal with him, he might sense something. In that case, it's better to put him in a position that restricts his actions but also forces him to sit still.
This approach maintains the fragile balance of the Shinobi World, keeps other countries in check, and attracts their attention—far more effective than directly eliminating him.
"What a cruel twist of fate!"
Big Tsunade nearby, suddenly burst out laughing.
"In my time, the old man was killed by Orochimaru, also because of this Chunin Exams, and the new Fifth Hokage is me."
"I didn't expect that what was bound to happen would still happen here, but the outcome was completely different."
Yuzuru put his Teacher Tsunade and gently pinched the soft flesh of her waist. "That's because I'm here."
"I am creating a perfect timeline! A perfect future that can free the Shinobi World from suffering and lead everyone into a new era."
Upon hearing this, the women turned to look at him, their eyes filled with tenderness and love.
Because what Yuzuru said was right, and what he did was right. Up until now, everything that has happened in this Shinobi World proves that what Yuzuru did was correct.
In particular, after they learned about the future of another Shinobi World, they believed in Yuzuru's every decision with unwavering conviction.
Even if some decisions might be wrong, so what? No matter how many mistakes Yuzuru made, it's still better than the Shinobi World being such a mess.
To put it bluntly, even if Yuzuru makes a mistake one day, it's just like a little mud appearing in a clear lake, which can be completely ignored.
But the Shinobi World is different; it's a complete cesspool filled with excrement.
The two are completely incomparable.
"The old man didn't die after using the Dead Demon Seal, but his days are probably numbered."
Tsunade suddenly brought this up.
"That's true. The Dead Demon Seal Shinigami behind the Reaper Death Seal was scared away by me this time. However, summoning Shinigami requires a lot of Chakra and the sacrifice of a soul. He was lucky this time that his soul wasn't taken away, but the damage to his body is real. At his age, this kind of consumption is no different from a serious illness. His body is depleted. Although it can be slowly replenished, it will definitely not be as good as before."
Yuzuru nodded slightly.
"I'm somewhat surprised that Danzo didn't make a move. That old man is almost obsessed with the Hokage Position."
"I'm really looking forward to seeing Jiraiya will have the heart to Danzo."
Yuzuru chuckled softly.
"Although he possessed formidable strength, his weak character made him even more pathetic than Hiruzen Sarutobi in his later years."
"I wonder how much Konoha will lose in this power struggle between the two."
Upon hearing this, both Tsunade fell silent.
Meanwhile, around the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path.
Obito, Black Zetsu White Zetsu are using Yamato's Wood Release to mass-produce a large army of White Zetsu.
"Once the White Zetsu army is complete, we can immediately begin the next phase of our plan."
Black Zetsu looked at Obito and said.
"The collection of the Tailed Beast is still too slow."
Obito mentioned it briefly.
"The biggest problem right now is that the Two-Tails, Three-Tails, Seven-Tails, and Nine-Tails have all been taken away by Minazuki Yuzuru, and his whereabouts are unpredictable. Unless he shows up in person, we simply can't find him."
" Minazuki Yuzuru!"
The mere thought of that name filled Obito's eyes with hatred.
He took Rin away, and Kakashi too. Rin should have belonged to him, but now...
The thought that Rin and Kakashi were already married, and might even have a child, Obito's breathing quicken.
And indeed, that's the reality; Kakashi and Rin are getting married soon.
The Land of Water and the Sea Capital now completely at peace, everything is developing steadily, and the relationship between the two has long since warmed up.
Kakashi isn't the repressed, brooding guy from the original manga who's always glued to his Icha Icha Paradise" (a popular Japanese adult film series).
Well, he's still a bit of a closet pervert, but at least he's not a craftsman anymore.
Now in my early twenties, I'm at the peak of my life, with strength, a career, and love.
Hatake Sakumo is semi-retired, has been looking forward to holding his grandson for a long time!
He loved this peaceful life; all he missed was having a grandson by his side.
You have to understand that in a place like the Shinobi World, Third living together is a luxury for 80% of families. They're either missing the middle generation, or the top generation, or they might not even have either the middle or the bottom generations.
Fortunately, that's all in the past. In today's Land of Water, it's not uncommon for Third to live together. Not to mention the Sea Capital, there are many ordinary people in towns and villages throughout the country who live with Third under one roof.
After having dinner with everyone that evening, Yuzuru looked at Hong and Guang, who were preparing to go upstairs to rest, with eyes full of passion.
Faced with his undisguised, burning gaze, the two exchanged a glance and simultaneously refused.
"Stop bothering us, the swelling hasn't gone down yet. Let's go find Tsunade, or if that doesn't work, Shizune will do."
Upon hearing this, both Shizune blushed simultaneously, glancing silently at Yuzuru Xian with expectant eyes.
At that moment, Big Tsunade intercepted them directly.
"Come inside with me! She had her fun during the day, now it's my turn!"
Watching Yuzuru being dragged into the room by her other self, Tsunade didn't hold back too much.
After all, although today's daytime may seem like only a few hours, the two of them actually had a blast for seven whole days at Amenominaka, so she needs to get some rest.
Seeing the resentment in the eyes of the two Shizune, Tsunade couldn't help but smile. "Alright, don't be disappointed. It'll be your turn sooner or later. Before that, make sure to strengthen your physique, otherwise, it wouldn't be good if you fainted halfway through."
Upon hearing this, Shizune lowered her head, her forehead even starting to steam, as if she were imagining something.
On the other side, after being Big Tsunade, the two got straight to the point without exchanging a single unnecessary word.
Big Tsunade was much more direct than his teacher; after all, she had truly endured decades more of a miserable life than her teacher.
Yuzuru, naturally, was not stingy and pulled her to the Amenominaka.
Big Tsunade had already guessed it. After all, the other version of her couldn't have achieved that in just a few hours; it was clearly a look of complete satisfaction from the inside out.
How long have you been here?
The Big Tsunade looked at him and asked.
About a week.
No wonder she looked so content.
Yuzuru:...
"I want more too, and even more than her!"
After saying that, Big Tsunade looked at him intently.
"Then, shall I spend one more day with you?"
Yuzuru looked at her tentatively.
"One day?"
Big Tsunade pressed him down on the bed, their eyes met, their noses almost touching, and a charming, alluring smile curved Tsunade's lips.
"I want to double it!"
