Konoha: Starting with Sage Mode.

Chapter 112 The Value of an 8-Year-Old Immortal

"Chizuru, the gift your grandfather gives me must be generous enough, otherwise I'll be at a huge loss."

Kirito watched Momoka leave the room and thought to himself, then slapped the ground with his right hand, releasing the sealing barrier in the room.

To persuade Momoka, he even brought out his Sage Mode this time.

After successfully mastering the Yin Seal, the biggest obstacle to his Sage Mode training disappeared, and he was already very familiar with the process of mixing chakra with natural energy to form Sage Chakra.

Therefore, even though it was his first time trying to enter Sage Mode, the process was very smooth and could be described as a natural progression with little difficulty.

This is the value of the immortal physique. Cultivating the immortal mode is not difficult for him. As long as he cultivates step by step, he will be able to successfully cultivate into an immortal sooner or later.

Now, he has only used the powerful sealing technique of Yin Seal to advance this process by a tiny fraction.

As expected, Momoka was a knowledgeable Senju. Having witnessed Hashirama enter Sage Mode before, she immediately understood the power he had just used.

After that, he didn't need to persuade him anymore. After staring at him blankly for more than ten seconds, Momoka readily agreed to his request and went to persuade the Third Hokage to let the Uchiha clan participate in this Nine-Tails inheritance operation.

"Indeed, the most effective way to overcome fear is to master the power to conquer it."

Kirito recalled Momoka's surprised and ecstatic expression just now and said with great emotion.

No matter how reasonable his words are, it's more effective to just activate "Sage Mode".

Of course, the process of reasoning and preparing before activating Sage Mode is also very important; otherwise, activating Sage Mode right away will definitely diminish its impact.

"I've finished my persuasion work here. Now it's up to Momoka. I hope she can successfully persuade the third generation."

Kirito thought to himself with a hint of unease.

He successfully persuaded Tao Hua, but whether Tao Hua can successfully persuade the third generation is another question.

Since Sage Mode is a secret to him, it's impossible for him to tell the Third Hokage.

He would reveal Sage Mode to Momoka mainly because he trusts her; given her stubborn personality, she would definitely not reveal this secret to anyone else.

At most, it will be revealed to Tsunade and Nawaki later.

He himself could not possibly persuade the Third Generation, because he did not hold enough weight in the Third Generation's heart.

Unless he reveals Sage Mode, his words are less effective than those of Momoka, the Hokage's advisor.

"I've done what I was supposed to do. Now I need to focus on the Nine-Tails' inheritance. I promised my teacher that I would do this perfectly, and I can't break my promise."

Kirito quickly convinced himself to put work aside and refocus all his attention on the Nine-Tails' legacy project.

He quickly left the room, walked out of the villa, and went outside.

By this time, the exterior of the secluded villa had changed dramatically.

With the combined efforts of a large number of Konoha ninjas proficient in Earth Release ninjutsu, the area outside the villa has been transformed into a wide and flat open space. This open space has been paved with a layer of sturdy stone slabs, and huge rock pillars have been erected around the perimeter of the open space.

The rock pillars were currently connected together by some huge iron chains.

These chains are mixed with chakra metal and are engraved with a large number of sealing techniques. As long as enough chakra is injected into them, they will immediately form a set of ninja tools with powerful binding abilities.

In addition, a large number of ninjas from the sealing squad are carving various complex sealing techniques on the stone slabs and rock pillars.

In order to successfully seal the Nine-Tails, the Konoha ninjas are building a huge sealing altar.

If this sealing altar can be successfully completed, the success rate of sealing the Nine-Tails can be increased by at least 20% to 30%.

Meanwhile, on the outermost perimeter of the sealing altar, a large number of Konoha ninjas were hidden in various places, fully on guard against every move around them.

At this moment, Kirito sensed hundreds of Jonin-level chakra through natural energy, and even more Chunin-level chakra.

To ensure the successful completion of the Nine-Tails' inheritance, Konoha has mobilized its elite forces. In addition to the Uchiha clan, many other ninja clans in Konoha have sent their best ninjas to participate in this operation.

Kirito looked at the Konoha ninjas working hard and felt a surge of confidence. With so many outstanding Konoha ninjas helping him, how could Konoha not be able to successfully seal the Nine-Tails again?

. . .

On the other side, Momoka was on her way to find the Third Generation. Her expression was full of excitement. All the pressure and anxiety that had been building up inside her had disappeared. Now she felt relaxed, and a smile that hadn't appeared on her face for a long time unconsciously appeared on her face.

Ever since Mito, the pillar of the Senju clan, began to show signs of falling, Momoka, the de facto head steward of the Senju clan, has been very anxious, because once Mito falls, the Senju clan will have no more Kage-level powerhouses.

In the world of ninjas, strength ultimately prevails.

If the Senju clan doesn't have a Kage-level ninja to guard it, it will inevitably attract the covetous eyes of others. Moreover, the Senju clan is currently too small in number. The number of Chunin and Jonin is less than that of the Ino-Shika-Cho clans, not to mention the Yuan Fei, Uchiha, and Hyuga clans.

As expected, after Mito's death, the Senju clan will experience a significant decline in a short period of time.

Even though she was already a Hokage advisor, she couldn't stop it.

After all, she was getting old, and her strength was no longer at its peak. Her shoulders could no longer support the entire Senju clan.

She had considered letting Tsunade take on the responsibility of reviving the Senju clan, but the Konoha princess had always shown great resistance to the position of clan head, was irresponsible, and had a serious lack of interest in inheriting the Hokage position.

She had discussed this with Tsunade once before, but it ended badly.

How can someone who has no desire to become Hokage be qualified to become Hokage?

Momoka has basically given up on the idea of ​​Tsunade becoming Hokage.

She watched Tsunade grow up, and in her heart, Tsunade was her daughter.

She naturally hoped that Tsunade could be happy, and she didn't want to force Tsunade to do things she didn't like.

But if Tsunade doesn't become Hokage, how will the Senju clan be revived?

Is it near the rope tree?

Tao Hua thought it was completely unreliable.

This child truly wants to become Hokage, but he has the First Hokage's personality without his talent. Fortunately, he knows how to work hard now, and he may achieve great things in the future.

But Nawaki was too young. By the time he grew up, the decline of the Senju clan was inevitable.

As for Kirito, she had never considered him.

She always believed that the Senju clan's problems should be solved by the Senju clan itself.

Of course, in her heart, Kirito was one of her own.

She could accept Kirito, but the others in the clan would find it difficult to accept him. Even though Kirito was Mito-sama's disciple, he was not a true Senju. It seemed illegitimate to make Kirito the acting head of the Senju clan.

Unless Kirito marries into the Senju clan and changes his surname to Senju, but based on her understanding of that child, that's impossible.

Therefore, Kirito's role in her mind is that of someone who will mentor Tsunade and Nawaki in the future, not that of the acting clan leader or the Hokage.

But after witnessing Kirito's Sage Mode, her perception of him changed.

An 8-year-old fairy could not possibly grow up as she wished; her previous perception of Kirito was utterly ridiculous.

Such an unparalleled genius is beyond the control of the current Senju clan. Given time, he will surely soar to great heights, reaching heights that Tsunade and Nawaki could never attain.

"Lord Mito, you have excellent foresight. Senju has placed his bet early and will surely reap unimaginable rewards in the future."

At this moment, Momoka couldn't help but think of Mito, and felt immense admiration for him.

Little did she know that the problem that had been troubling her had already been solved by the insightful Lord Mito.

It's tough for a new author to get ahead, so I hope all my fellow readers will visit often to increase the readership. After you finish reading, I hope you'll vote for this book and invest in it. If you could give me some monthly tickets and rewards, I would be extremely grateful. It's so hard for a new author and a new book.
