Promising the future ahead of time, starting with Naruto

The Sage of Six Paths noticed Sasuke Uchiha's attitude and frowned inwardly.

Things didn't go as smoothly as expected.

Sasuke Uchiha, who had a close relationship with Mount Myōboku, was actually more inclined to side with Genichi Kōshita.

"Indra..."

The Sage of Six Paths sighed inwardly.

He understood Genichi's underlying meaning.

That would be a major battle.

But he wasn't ready yet.

The atmosphere was tense, and Kakashi's back was already covered in cold sweat.

If war breaks out, fighting against someone like the Sage of Six Paths would be incredibly stressful.

"Senior, why don't you let us give it a try?"

Minato Namikaze suddenly opened his mouth.

All eyes were on him, and Minato Namikaze said, "No one can be certain that Genichi's method is not feasible."

"I think the reason why the senior did not interfere with the development of the ninja world was because he believed that the successors would surely be able to find a peaceful path."

"Now the ninja world is at peace, and everyone is united under Genichi's leadership to fight against the Otsutsuki."

"We choose to believe him!"

A smile appeared in Xuan's eyes as he looked down from the tree.

Everyone believes him, so who do you think you are, a "dead man"?

Minato Namikaze's words can be roughly translated as follows.

Very pleased.

The Sage of Six Paths then said, "Power needs to be revered, otherwise one will become lost in power."

"Planting the sacred tree is like opening a Pandora's box; once opened, it will inevitably lead to an abyss."

In short, the dragon slayer becomes the new dragon!
Genichi Shushita certainly knew this principle, but he would never throw the baby out with the bathwater.

Genichi Shushita said, "We cannot abandon the sword just because it might hurt us, and then fight an enemy with a sword with our bare hands."

"When you became the Ten-Tails' Jinchūriki, you divided the Ten-Tails' power into the nine tailed beasts. Was it also to prevent being controlled by that power?"

"If we consider the outcome, ninjas shouldn't exist at all."

Knowing that further discussion was pointless, the Sage of Six Paths said, "It seems I cannot persuade you."

"In that case, let's see if we can succeed."

"I hope you'll stop in time..."

As soon as he finished speaking, the Sage of Six Paths disappeared.

Call ~
Sakura Haruno let out a long breath and then plopped down on her stomach.

I was too nervous just now.

The second personality, Sakura, was somewhat disappointed: "What a pity, they didn't even fight."

"If a fight breaks out, we'll know whether Master Xuanyi is more powerful or the Sage of Six Paths is more formidable."

"However, it seems that Master Xuan is still more powerful, isn't he?"

Sakura Haruno couldn't be bothered with the crazy woman in her mind.

Kakashi and Minato Namikaze also breathed a sigh of relief.

They were also afraid to take action, after all, he was the Sage of Six Paths.

This is not just a matter of fighting; it could very well lead to the direct split of the Ninja Sect.

This is not what Minato Namikaze wanted to see.

"Uncle Xuanyi, is there really no other way?"

Naruto asked again, looking unwilling.

He felt that the Sage of Six Paths was right; planting the divine tree was too dangerous.

Moreover, he could sense that the Sage of Six Paths meant no harm and was acting in the name of peace in the ninja world.

Sakura Haruno was furious: "Idiot Naruto, if there were any other way, you wouldn't have taken the risk."

Genichi Shushita made a startling statement: "It's not like there aren't other ways."

"To pave a path to become stronger from the sixth level."

Naruto was initially delighted, then dumbfounded: "This...this is way too difficult!"

Minato Namikaze couldn't help but smile wryly.

Not to mention being stronger than the Six Paths level, no one can keep up with Xuan Yi under the tree even now.

Although Naruto and Sasuke Uchiha have both reached the Six Paths level, they did not achieve this through their own efforts, but rather through the power of the Sage of Six Paths.

Especially Naruto.

Once the chakra given by the Sage of Six Paths is used up, his strength will inevitably decline.

Kakashi, however, seemed to be deep in thought.

He knows Genichi Kinoshita very well; for him to say such things, he probably already has an idea.

Genichi patted Naruto on the shoulder and said, "That's enough for today."

"If there's no road ahead, we'll carve one out."

"Whether it's planting a sacred tree or other methods, we must try them first."

"Let's go see the sacred tree I planted tomorrow, yes, the new sacred tree!"

Naruto nodded helplessly: "Alright!"

Everyone, please disperse.

Minato Namikaze took Naruto home, Sasuke Uchiha took Sakura Haruno home, and Genichi Kinoshita and Kakashi left the building together.

Under the dim streetlights, Kakashi asked, "Do you already have an idea?"

Genichi chuckled, "As expected of Kakashi, you noticed that."

He admitted directly: "I do have a tiny bit of ideas, but they are just ideas, and I haven't had time to try them yet."

"Remember what I told you about the Otsutsuki clan's alchemy?"

Kakashi nodded: "Is it related to this?"

Genichi Kishita didn't answer, but continued to ask, "Do you remember what I did when I was short of chakra?"

Kakashi frowned: "Yin Seal... storing chakra through sealing techniques?"

Shuxia Xuanyi laughed and said, "Of course not."

"The Ten-Tails transforms into the Divine Tree, which absorbs natural energy from heaven and earth and then bears the Divine Tree Fruit. People who eat the Divine Tree Fruit can gain powerful chakra, awaken the Rinnegan, and even obtain other bloodline limit abilities."

"While not all ninjas can absorb natural energy, some can cultivate to Sage Mode, like you, Naruto, and Itachi Uchiha."

"Even if we can't master Sage Mode, we can still accumulate chakra by eating."

Kakashi understood Genichi's meaning: "You mean, imitate the Ten-Tailed Divine Tree?"

Xuan Yi under the tree nodded: "Not bad."

"We might also be able to grow a Chakra Fruit within our own bodies, or refine a pill."

Kakashi was shaken, but when he tried to think about it, his mind went completely blank.

How can this be done?

Yin Seal?
I'm afraid that won't work. Only a few people can master such an S-rank sealing technique.

Nohara Rin had trained before, but had not mastered it.

The cherry blossoms in Haruno took three years to cultivate.

However, considering that Sakura Haruno has broken the Yin Seal and gained strength through the Hundred Healings Technique, this is indeed a possible path.

Genichi looked at Kakashi, who was deep in thought, and said, "The Yin Seal definitely won't work."

"Furthermore, the forehead cannot be the location for storing chakra, as the amount that location can store is insufficient."

"A Jinchūriki is a good role model."

Kakashi pondered, "The abdomen... whether it's the Four Symbols Seal or the Eight Trigrams Seal, it's much simpler than the Yin Seal."

Genichi patted Kakashi on the shoulder: "Sealing techniques are only a last resort. It would be best to make sealing techniques unnecessary, so that more people can benefit from them."

"Otherwise, even a B-rank sealing technique would become a skill mastered by only a few."

“Although spiritual practice is like climbing a mountain, the higher you go, the fewer people can reach the top... Of course, take it slow and achieve it step by step.”

Kakashi nodded, his mind still working.

Genichi Shushita smiled upon seeing this, then waved his hand and said, "Alright, I'm leaving now."

After saying that, he disappeared.

Kakashi snapped out of his daze and couldn't help but rub his forehead: "This guy still has so many ingenious ideas."

"However, it will be very difficult to achieve!"

...Back home, Genichi Kishita did not disturb Tsunade and the others, and sat down in the study as usual.

The Sage of Six Paths was slightly disappointed that he did not start a war.

If the Sage of Six Paths initiates a major battle, then Genichi Kōshita will have a chance to defeat the Sage of Six Paths.

Otherwise, if he lacks the will to fight, it would be difficult for the Sage of Six Paths to defeat him once he retreats to the Pure Land.

Genichi Shushita was very familiar with the Sage of Six Paths' eye techniques.

"If I don't act now, the longer it goes on, the greater my advantage will become."

Xuan Yi pondered to himself under the tree.

In fact, based on current data, he is already stronger than the Sage of Six Paths.

"The Pure Land... I'll have to go there sooner or later!"

Xuan made up his mind under the tree.

On the side of the couch, how can you allow others to sleep soundly.

……

As dawn broke, Genichi stretched under the tree and was about to leave the study when he remembered the tailed beast chakra within his body and the horns of the Eight-Tails.

"It's time to take care of this."

Genichi Shushita released the Bagua seal on his abdomen and absorbed all the tailed beast chakra inside, leaving none behind.

This means that he will no longer have any tailed beast chakra in his body.

Next is the Eight-Tails' horn, which is a physical entity, not just simple tailed beast chakra.

It's almost indistinguishable from a Jinchūriki.

But for Genichi Kinoshita now, it was a simple matter of a single thought that easily resolved the issue.

That is to break down the eight-tailed horn sealed inside the body, turn it into chakra and absorb it, leaving not a trace.

This eliminates the need to extract the eight tail horns.

In this way, Genichi Kishita would no longer be a Jinchūriki.

At the same time, only one Jinchuriki remained in the entire ninja world.

That was Kushina Uzumaki, the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki.

Of course, Genshiki Otsutsuki was about to die, so Genichi Koushi was not included in that calculation.

"Then let's try the previous idea..."

With a thought, Genichi under the tree gathered his chakra back at the location where the tailed beast was sealed.

"If sealing techniques are not used, then a strong mental consciousness is necessary to support a strong chakra."

"Use a primordial spirit clone?"

Try it first!
Genichi groped his way forward under the tree.

Within the chakra space in the abdomen, the gathered chakra is restrained by a primordial spirit clone.

After finishing, Shuxia Genichi got up and left the study.

Shizune and Ina were already busy in the kitchen. Genichi went to see the children who hadn't gotten up yet before coming to the yard to sunbathe and absorb solar radiation. Then he saw Kaguya Otsutsuki standing in the corridor on the right.

Kaguya Otsutsuki floated up when she saw Genichi under the tree: "I sensed Hagoromo's chakra."

"He didn't even stop you!"

Shuxia Xuanyi smiled and said, "Perhaps it's because it's not time for a life-or-death struggle yet."

Kaguya Otsutsuki remained noncommittal, then asked, "Do you think you can do it?"

Genichi under the tree calmly asked, "Why can't you do it?"

"I believe I can surpass the ancestor of your Otsutsuki clan."

Kaguya Otsutsuki remained silent.

The ancestor of the Otsutsuki clan, the Otsutsuki God, is said to have transcended this dimension. How could that be possible?

Thinking it was just a child bragging, Kaguya Otsutsuki then asked, "When are you going to have children?"

Xuan Yi remained silent beneath the tree.

Kaguya Otsutsuki said, "You really like children."

Xuan Yi understood in an instant.

Kaguya Otsutsuki wasn't in a hurry to have children with him; rather, she was eager to gain his "love" through having children.

Love the house and the bird.

Kaguya Otsutsuki is not stupid at all.

At seven o'clock in the morning, the children also got up one after another.

Chishu took her younger siblings out for morning training, while the youngest, Marin, rushed into Genichi's arms under the tree, with a miniature Suzaku perched on her shoulder.

Breakfast officially began at eight o'clock.

The children would occasionally glance curiously at Kaguya Otsutsuki, the newest member of the family, but because Kaguya looked very cold, they dared not approach her.

After breakfast, the three of them went to school by themselves, while Genichi Kishita took Marin to kindergarten.

At nine o'clock in the morning, the high-ranking members of the Ninja Clan gathered.

Hiruzen Sarutobi, Darui, Mei Terumi, Konan, Yahiko, Pakura, Tsunade, and others were all present.

Kaguya Otsutsuki naturally followed Genichi Kishita, attracting a lot of attention.

"Let's go!"

Under the tree, Xuan Yi remained calm, opened the portal to the space-time dimension, and led everyone in single file.

On the other side of the portal between time and space is a deserted island to the east of the Land of Fire.

This place is the dead end.

"It's so desolate!"

Sakura Haruno looked around. There wasn't a single large tree on the island, only sparse bushes and large areas of bare rocks.

Bang!
Smoke billowed up, and Genichi under the tree summoned the new Ten-Tails.

Tsunade and the others, who had been observing their surroundings, immediately looked away and focused their attention.

"Are you planning to sacrifice Shiki?"

Kaguya Otsutsuki.

The Ten-Tails transformed into a divine tree, requiring the sacrifice of one of the Otsutsuki.

Genichi under the tree did not speak, but Genshiki Otsutsuki appeared beside him.

Genshiki Otsutsuki took flight under the watchful eyes of many, heading towards the new Ten-Tails.

The new Ten-Tails roared and went berserk, opening its huge mouth to bite Genshiki Otsutsuki.

Genichi Shushita frowned slightly: "It seems that gene editing alone cannot truly change many of the Ten-Tails' characteristics."

The Ten-Tails has its own consciousness, but it is more like an animal, after all, it is chaotic and eating is its instinct.

This includes absorbing the planet's energy and consuming the Otsutsuki.

Genichi Kishita had a premonition that this attempt would not yield good results.

Just as Genshiki Ōtsutsuki was about to be bitten by the Ten-Tails, his spirit left his body, releasing him from the puppet technique.

Immediately afterwards, it was bitten by the Ten-Tails. The next moment, under the gaze of Genichi and the others, the Ten-Tails rapidly transformed into the Divine Tree. Its thick roots pierced into the deserted island, and vines entwined it, forming a trunk that grew rapidly. Genichi was also enveloped in it.

The tree stopped growing after its trunk reached a height of several hundred meters, and then it began to grow branches and leaves.

At the same time, more vines grew out and swept towards Tsunade and the others.

"careful!"

A loud shout rang out, and everyone immediately took action.

Kaguya Otsutsuki said to Genichi Kinoshita, who was frowning, "The Divine Tree will devour all other energy nearby, including humans."

"Of course, except for you."

Genichi Shushita opened his Sharingan, and the next moment, all the vines that were rushing towards Tsunade and the others were disintegrated.

He then forcibly suppressed the divine tree's instincts, which finally made the divine tree settle down.

"Xuan Yi, did you fail?"

Minato Namikaze asked.

Shuxia Xuanyi said, "Judging from the current situation, the result is not so good."

Tobirama Senju said, "After all, it only changed a part of the genes."

Orochimaru laughed and said, "It should be said that some genes have been added, but the original genes have not been changed."

He and Dou didn't sleep last night.

"Look!"

There were exclamations.

Minato and the others looked up, their expressions immediately showing surprise. (End of Chapter)
