Chapter 195 The Perfect Hexagonal Warrior, Minato Namikaze
With just one member, they are already invincible. According to Kitahara Kaede, many more will join in the future.
Minato Namikaze felt his breath catch in his throat just thinking about it. Such a future was too heavy. Ignorance is bliss, but knowing too much only causes headaches.
Kage-level, Super Kage-level, and even the so-called Six Paths that Kitahara Kaede vaguely mentioned.
"Sage Mode, only Sage Mode left."
After much deliberation, Minato Namikaze concluded that, based on his current knowledge, the only way to contend with an existence of the Nine-Tails' caliber was through Sage Mode.
He had only heard of Sage Mode and hadn't started practicing it yet because he was too busy and didn't have the time to learn it.
He hadn't felt any urgency before, and since Mount Myoboku was there, he had plenty of time to go there and study.
However, it now seems that he will face an attack from Kenji Uchiha in just a few years, and time is actually running out for him.
I must take a special leave to go to Mount Myōboku to learn sage techniques.
Immortal arts are the only way he can deal with powerful enemies in the future.
At this moment, he began to understand why Kitahara Kaede said that this world was a world of eye legends, and that it seemed that not having a pupil technique would really put one at a disadvantage.
Fortunately, he still has magic powers, so he's not completely out of options.
After reading the diary, he closed it and put away everything he had written down.
Since sealing the memories is no longer feasible, he must face the most terrifying future and find a way to ensure that Naruto's birth will not be affected, which is a real headache for him.
Really, is it possible to remain unaffected?
Minato Namikaze gazed at the bright moon by the window and fell into deep thought.
Several days later, Kitahara Kaede and his group returned to Konoha.
Kitahara Kaede and his two companions were quickly granted an audience with the Third Hokage.
"Lord Hokage, that's roughly how the mission went. The barrier set up by the Fourth Hokage wasn't destroyed," Kitahara Kaede said.
He certainly couldn't say that it had actually been destroyed long ago, but was restored by the former Fourth Hokage.
Furthermore, he also plans to secretly intercept the Dragon Vein Chakra in the future, seal it within himself, and become a Dragon Vein Jinchūriki.
After all, it would be a waste to leave such a massive chakra source, comparable to the Nine-Tails, there.
Although Kitahara Kaede's chakra reserves have reached the Kage level, which is more than enough to fight against ordinary Jonin, it is quite ordinary against Kage-level opponents. He can only be said to have more chakra than the average Kage.
It will take at least several more years of growth to reach a level of chakra that is considered quite large even among Kage-level beings.
If he could become a Dragon Vein Jinchuriki and borrow the Dragon Vein's chakra, he could achieve something similar to Naruto Uzumaki, cultivate a Dragon Vein chakra mode, and have a chance to successfully master the Wind Release: Rasenshuriken, which he had been unable to do for so long.
"However, we also encountered some raids from wandering ninjas and rogue ninjas from various villages along the way," Kitahara Kaede replied. "I heard my bounty at the underground gold exchange has already reached ten million taels!"
"In Loulan, we also encountered Kakuzu, a rogue ninja from Takigakure. We finally managed to escape after a fierce battle."
Kitahara Kaede did not tell the whole story, nor did he mention that he had traveled back twenty years. Instead, he said that his team had fought hard together to escape.
"Ten million taels? Ha, I'll take you for granted." Upon hearing this, the Third Hokage couldn't help but sneer.
He knew perfectly well who would be offering a bounty on Kitahara Kaede at the underground gold exchange at this time, except for his good comrade-in-arms Danzo.
Besides him, who else would offer ten million ryo for an unknown Chunin? That's already at the level of a Jonin's bounty.
Even with his roots under surveillance, his old friend still managed to pull off such a stunt, truly showing a relentless, fight-or-die attitude.
But beneath that smile, he was utterly enraged!
Time and again, they challenged him, engaging in all sorts of underhanded tactics, which made him feel like he was being challenged.
However, he didn't show it, but instead changed the subject, saying, "Kakuzu? The one from Takigakure?"
He stroked his chin. He wasn't completely unaware of Kakuzu. As a bounty hunter who had long been active in underground gold trading, he was well-known in various countries.
He even attempted to assassinate the First Hokage, making him a veteran ninja and an extremely dangerous individual.
It's incredibly lucky that Kitahara Kaede and his two companions were able to escape unscathed from such an enemy.
"Yes, it's him." Kitahara Kaede nodded and said, his face showing a look of relief, as if he had just escaped death.
It's not entirely wrong to say he was wrong. He traveled to the past, and if he wasn't careful, he could have ended up stuck in the past, or even on a completely new timeline where he didn't exist.
Who knows if the fourth generation will be able to go back with him after sealing the dragon vein, since he didn't arrive at the right time.
"I understand. You can go back now. I've decided to upgrade this mission to Rank A. Go and write up another report," the Third Hokage said.
"Yes." Kitahara Kaede didn't say anything more and immediately left the Hokage's office with his two teammates.
Just as he stepped outside, he heard the sound of something being smashed. He was slightly startled, but without lingering, he quickly led the two away.
"Issue my order: starting today, freeze the funding requests of Danzo, the elder of the advisory group, and disband the Root organization, merging it into the Dark Side."
,
The Third Hokage said.
"Yes."
Immediately, members of the secret service stepped out from the shadows, received their orders, and left.
After leaving the Hokage Building, Kitahara Kaede and the other two rushed home. This mission had been anything but easy, involving both travel and being chased, so they desperately needed a good rest.
Kitahara Kaede also rushed home and saw her mother, Kitahara Yoshiko, watering the flowers. When she saw Kitahara Kaede return home, she simply asked him what he wanted to eat as usual before going to prepare food.
Everything was uneventful; for the ninja clan, such separations and reunions were nothing new.
After washing up, Kitahara Kaede returned to his room and began to examine the book that Namikaze Minato had left him, which was filled with knowledge about sealing techniques. He had been reading it quite a bit lately.
This diary records a lot of sealing techniques. Although they are not very advanced, they solve the problem that Kitahara Kaede had theoretical knowledge of sealing techniques but no corresponding sealing techniques.
The first one is the Sealing Technique that Kakashi Hatake used against Sasuke Uchiha, who had been implanted with the Curse of Heaven. This sealing technique can seal the target's chakra fluctuations. It can be used to seal a specific area, like Kakashi Hatake did with Sasuke Uchiha, or the sealing range can be expanded to the whole body.
If sealed by the Evil-Sealing Seal, the chakra activity in the ninja's entire meridian system will be suppressed, which is similar to the effect of losing internal energy in martial arts novels. It is a very useful ninjutsu for grabbing and controlling enemies.
After using the Evil-Sealing Seal, it is then bound with ropes. Even Jonin or Kage-level powerhouses would find it difficult to break free. Although it is only B-rank, it is very practical.
Besides the Sealing Evil Seal, there is also the Sealing Fire Seal, which Jiraiya once used. It is a sealing technique specifically developed to counter fire-style ninjutsu. Considering that the Uchiha clan is good at using fire-style ninjutsu, it is highly likely that the Uzumaki clan in the Warring States period developed this sealing technique specifically to target the Uchiha clan.
Besides these two sealing techniques, what also caught Kitahara Kaede's eye was the Eight Trigrams Sealing Technique, a powerful sealing technique developed and improved by Namikaze Minato based on the original Four Symbols Sealing Technique passed down through the Uzumaki clan.
Minato Namikaze used the Eight Trigrams Seal to seal the Nine-Tails inside Naruto Uzumaki, and the Eight Trigrams Seal also allowed him to continuously extract the Nine-Tails' chakra.
For Kitahara Kaede, this was like a godsend, because he couldn't do without the Bagua Seal if he wanted to seal the power of the Dragon Vein into his body.
Once you've mastered the Bagua sealing technique, you can prepare to take action to avoid any unforeseen complications.
In particular, besides him, Kakuzu was also among those who had witnessed the Dragon Vein Chakra. Although he didn't know why Kakuzu retreated that day, since the Dragon Vein had been discovered by Kakuzu, it was possible that it had been taken away by the Akatsuki organization.
Therefore, Kitahara Kaede doesn't have much time left.
"It's a pity that my talent in sealing techniques is only so-so." Kitahara Kaede sighed. Now he faces the same problem as when he was training the Flying Thunder God Technique: he doesn't have enough talent and can only rely on his knowledge of sealing techniques to train, so his progress is average.
After acquiring knowledge of sealing techniques and receiving several sealing techniques from Minato Namikaze, he roughly understood how Minato's Flying Thunder God Technique Second Stage worked.
It's a completely different kind of sealing technique that can be cast instantly. Unless he gets a talent related to sealing techniques to enhance it, it's possible to give him time to inscribe the Flying Thunder God Technique formula, but it's impossible to cast it instantly like Minato Namikaze.
If you think about it this way, Minato Namikaze's talents are truly outrageous. In addition to being good at ordinary ninjutsu, he also has the talent for space-time ninjutsu, his super reflexes are comparable to those of eye techniques and bloodline limits, and his talent for sealing techniques is also extremely high.
No wonder Jiraiya always remembered him and called him the most outstanding genius, the hexagonal warrior.
An ordinary ninja would indeed pale in comparison to his talent.
Unfortunately, in the later stages of Naruto, talent alone was no longer enough to solve problems; bloodline was required!
Minato Namikaze achieved his strength through hard work and talent, while Sarada simply opened her Mangekyou Sharingan after falling in love and reached that level. Who can you complain to about that?
