He was in Konoha, and his domineering aura was overflowing.

“It’s the basic theory of sealing techniques,” Igarashi added.

While I am indeed interested in sealing techniques, what you've said makes me want to learn the Corpse Demon Sealing Technique instead.

“Basic theory.” Mito Uzumaki chuckled and slowly stood up.

“It’s good that you love learning. Kushina, you should come too.”

Upon hearing this, Kushina immediately deflated.

Like a shriveled cherry tomato, her vibrant red hair seemed to dim considerably at this moment.

Isogen automatically ignored Kushina's resentful little eyes.

Whirlpool Water began its lecture.

She spoke very softly and gently, as if she were coaxing someone to sleep.

But the knowledge that came out of her mouth was something that countless people in the ninja world dreamed of.

Base?

It is because of its foundation that it is precious.

The basics of the explanation were broken down and thoroughly explained by a sealing technique master who had devoted his life to the study of sealing techniques.

Isogen and Kushina listened very attentively.

It was Isogen's first time meeting him, while Kushina knew the importance and urgency of the matter, and also... if she didn't listen carefully, she would most likely suffer after Isogen left.

I listened very carefully to the remaining songs of the Fifty Strings.

The Yin and Yang attributes, approaching forty, are playing crucial roles simultaneously in their respective domains.

His thinking was very clear; he could understand and remember all the points of knowledge that Mizuto Uzumaki threw out.

While there are reasons for this, such as the detailed explanation by Mito Uzumaki, his 'Will of Domination' also plays a role.

Unusual.

He discovered it a long time ago, when he was in the hospital.

Everyone possesses Yin and Yang attributes, but those who wield supernatural powers, such as ninjas, monks, and shrine maidens, are the most unique.

The effects of Yin and Yang on the human body are obvious.

Chakra is a manifestation of the Yin and Yang attributes.

Ninjas can do many incredible things by manipulating chakra.

Tsunade, who was later cleaved in two during the Fourth Shinobi World War against Madara Uchiha, was able to reassemble herself; she was practically a superhuman.

However, all of this has one prerequisite: the effect of chakra must be completed.

Extraordinary strength, speed, and reflexes are all influenced by chakra.

But... a ninja's use of chakra is subjective.

Ninjas rarely refine chakra during their normal lives.

But since his yin and yang attributes came into play, his body has undergone some subtle changes.

Yin and Yang do not need to be deliberately activated; they function 24 hours a day.

In other words, he is in a state of combat at all times, and is constantly improving.

It's like giving yourself a positive 'evolution' buff.

This was something Ishigaki hadn't expected.

He originally thought that the improvement of Yin and Yang attribute points mainly proved his talent or strength in a certain aspect, but he never expected it to unfold in this way.

However, his talent and strength are indeed gradually increasing.

The lecture didn't end until the sun was gradually setting in the west.

"Did you understand?"

“I understood everything.” Yuge Wuxian nodded.

Understanding something is one thing, but being able to apply it in practice is another.

However, as long as you remember what you learned today, it won't be a problem to apply it when you gain more experience in the future.

Moreover, there is still a long way to go before theory can be applied to practice.

Mito Uzumaki nodded slightly; she could tell that Isogen wasn't lying.

She said with a smile, "That's good. Kushina is a rather mischievous child, so I'll trouble you to take care of her."

Kushina was displeased upon hearing this, her eyes puffing up like a cherry tomato.

"Who needs his help? I'm the one taking care of him! I'm older than him!"

Whirlpool Water remained noncommittal.

She noticed the child's precociousness as soon as he entered the room at fifty.

But his emotions seem abnormal, or rather, different from those of ordinary people.

"It's almost evening, Xiao Yuge, would you like to stay for dinner?" Uzumaki Mito said with a smile.

Fifty strings are perfectly acceptable.

Seeing that he agreed, Mito Uzumaki smiled even more happily.

"Great, this house hasn't been this lively in a long time. By the way, Xiao Yuge, do you have any dietary restrictions? I'll go first, Kushina doesn't like tomatoes."

"grandmother!"

Watching Kushina howl like a large dog, Yuuka Igogen's beautiful eyebrows curved into crescents.

"I know that Kushina likes salty ramen."

At this moment, the Hokage Building was filled with the secondhand smoke from the Hokage's residence, drifting out of the windows.

Hiruzen Sarutobi received information from the Senju family mansion.

"Having stayed for so long, does Mito-sama think highly of Isogen?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi's still young and dignified face seemed lost in thought.

……

After dinner, just as Ishigami was about to take his leave, Mito Uzumaki suddenly called him back.

"Little Yu Ge, are you planning to use this knowledge of sealing techniques to develop new techniques?"

Kushina blinked, her eyes clear and...pure, tilting her head, an invisible question mark popping out.

Wu Shigenori nodded slightly, raised his head, and met Mito Uzumaki's gaze. A clear, crisp sound rang out.

"Yes, it's already in its initial stages. After I study human anatomy more, make some revisions to the drawings, and dissect some corpses, it should be ready to be completed."

Mito Uzumaki's eyes widened slightly as she looked at Isogen's calm and composed face, which seemed to say that everything was under control, but then hesitated to speak.

What does it mean to have the initial dissection of a corpse completed?

Even though she was an old-timer who had lived since before Konoha was founded, she was still shocked by Isogen's unexpected answer.

Looking into Isogen's calm eyes, she was certain.

This child really has some mental problems.

"That's right."

Suddenly, Isogen thought of something and looked at Mito Uzumaki with a serious expression.

"I've packed up all of your books, Grandma Mito."

Mito Uzumaki remained silent. She had noticed Isogen's actions earlier, but he was simply tidying up the books, including the sealing scrolls that she had carelessly piled up.

Well, although these things are very valuable, this is the Senju family mansion, and it is guarded by her, the first Jinchuriki of the ninja world. Who would dare to lay a hand on her things?

Fifty strings are serious.

Well, you've met him today.

"Judging from the way the scrolls and books are arranged, I can tell that you enjoy reading, which is a good habit. Reading often helps keep your brain active. But at your age, reading for too long can be a burden on your health, so..."

He looked at Kushina, who was listening in a daze, as if entrusting her with the mission of saving the world.

"Kushina, starting tomorrow, Grandma can only read for a maximum of one hour a day, and then go out, whether it's shopping, sightseeing, or simply sitting on a street corner watching people, she must keep her body active."

"Not only the brain, but the body also needs to be active."

Mito Uzumaki's lips twitched, and her tone subconsciously changed: "Are you trying to interfere with my activities?"

“This is for your health,” Isogen insisted.

He owed Mito Uzumaki a favor, so it was only right that he take care of Kushina. Even without their friendship, he would still take care of this cherry tomato.

However, Mito Uzumaki spends most of his time in the Senju mansion and rarely goes out. When he does go out, he goes straight to the Hokage Building, which is bad for his physical and mental health.

Is he, as a Jinchūriki, imprisoning himself?

My will to dominate will not allow it!

“I have locked every book and scroll, and I will take them if you dare to exceed the time limit.”

"You dare?" Mito Uzumaki's eyebrows shot up. You little brat, you dare to tell me what to do?

"I dare." Wu Xian's tone was calm and indifferent.

"And if you don't exercise according to your body's needs, I will personally supervise you and take coercive measures if necessary."

This is what it means to respect the elderly and care for the young.

If it weren't for the fact that he had just acquired the knowledge and needed to digest it, plus the fact that Kushina's child was nearby, he would have already attacked Mito Uzumaki.

Can't beat them?

If you give up your will to carry out your mission just because the opponent is too strong, what's the difference between you and a dead person?

Books? Spirit? Body? Activities? Your great gaze saw the lonely figure of this old woman, and you resolved to use your great will to protect her!

Chapter 18 Anatomy

The next morning, Mito Uzumaki woke up from a deep sleep.

The elderly man's sleep was restless, and he began to read the scroll.

Before I could even get a good feel for it, a small hand suddenly appeared and snatched the scroll away.

Kushina hid the scroll behind her back, her grinning face resembling that of a little hamster, and spoke to her grandmother, who was still in a daze.

"Grandma, starting today, you need to plan your reading time better."

Mito Uzumaki came to her senses.

She thought of that little guy from yesterday who dared to be so assertive and demand that she take good care of herself. It was the first time she had ever met someone like that. She didn't believe that after hearing about her knowledge of sealing techniques, Wuxian would think she was just an ordinary old woman.

Even if it weren't for the fact that this old house, which occupies a considerable area, could indirectly prove her identity, she didn't believe that the intelligence shown by Wu Xian was that he hadn't discovered anything.

As she pondered, she looked at Kushina, who was smiling like a cunning fox, with her aged yet clear eyes, and gave a kind yet helpless smile.

"I'm so old, and you're all taking care of me."

At this moment, a certain fox, which only included food, let out a deafening laugh.

"Hahaha, old woman, you're getting worse and worse, getting manipulated by two little devils."

With a kind expression, the powerful sealing technique within him activated, granting the Nine-Tails a free upgrade to a suite and a complimentary 'mask'.
