Konoha's Mission Master

This energy made You Gu Qianxue a strong person among the Kage level, but she was still weaker than the Super Kage level. The composition of the black flames was very similar to the Soul Flame used by Nasus, but there was a difference in power.

"Master, you are truly terrifyingly strong."

You Gu Qianxue rubbed his aching fist and sighed. He never expected to be defeated in a second.

"I believe that in the future, you will reach my level."

Yu Gu Qianxue: "I will keep trying!"

"Let's start practicing our swordsmanship and consolidate what we've learned from our experience."

Yakumo first drew his Fuma sword and began practicing on the flat ground. Yukotsu Chiyuki immediately nodded, suddenly remembering the slash she had made at the moment of her death.

If he were to master that one strike, his strength would undoubtedly experience a leap forward!

The two began to dance on the flat ground next to the wooden house.

This experience of being suddenly suppressed was an invaluable one for Yakumo. Under those circumstances, he had to find the perfect angle to attack with each swing of his sword.

This experience led to Yakumo's swordsmanship becoming more solid, his mastery of power becoming more proficient, and he corrected various flaws in his own swordsmanship, which in turn strengthened his combat power to another extent.

At this moment, more ideas for practice came to mind.

Yakumo's sword-wielding movements became increasingly fluid and natural, and his previous oversights were quickly corrected. Finally, Yakumo used the light of his sword to create a truly perfect circle.

"This is the true waltz."

Unexpectedly, being suppressed in strength became an opportunity to review what he had learned. Sure enough... the so-called perfection was just a concept. As his strength increased, looking back, the originally perfect moves were full of flaws.

Yakumo plans to spend the next period of time refining his swordsmanship, not to improve further, but simply to minimize any flaws in his techniques.

The flashes of the blade grew ever faster, like a long, silvery river.

Beside him, You Gu Qianxue also gained some insight, and his movements when wielding the sword became more precise. He was increasing his control over those scattered forces.

As the morning sun rises, You Guqianxue's eyes are sharp as knives.

"Come, Master, let's have a spar."

And as he spoke, he swiftly moved closer to Yakumo with his sword.

Yakumo's two swords clashed, subtly forming a united front to guard the four directions.

A seemingly gentle yet irresistible burst of immense force sent Yuuki Chiyuki flying back more than ten feet. Just as she was about to draw her sword and continue her attack...

Yakumo drew his sword and retreated, like a wild goose spreading its wings to take flight.

You Gu Qianxue failed to regain mastery of the Nether Slash, but she did achieve a significant improvement in her swordsmanship, faintly reaching the mid-stage of the master level.

"Let's skip the sparring and go home to make breakfast for Masako Mori."

You Gu Qianxue silently sheathed her sword, a hint of bitterness in her expression.

"I took a knife for my master, I'll risk my life for him..."

On the other hand, when Yakumo returned home, he found Masako Mori lying on his bed without any regard for her image, her body curvaceous and revealing glimpses of her cleavage.

Yakumo quietly went to the kitchen and began preparing a loving breakfast. Before long... the pure meat buns were thrown into the steamer to heat up.

When the steamed buns were placed on the table, Yakumo used his chakra to shatter the garlic and soy sauce, creating a perfect garlic sauce.

Turning around, I saw that Masako Mori had already come to the table. With her constitution, she didn't care about the high temperature at all and started eating heartily, her mouth full of oil.

Yakumo was at the table, picked up a steamed bun, and was about to eat it.

"You're not even married yet, and you're staying out all night every day. Plus, you're actually hanging out with Qianxue. Am I not attractive enough? Or do you just like men?"

Yakumo kept his head down and ate his bun without changing his expression. He had known for a long time that Masako Mori had an extremely strong sense of smell, which was even comparable to that of a police dog at times.

"No way? No way? Speechless or admitting it?"

Yakumo quickly finished the steamed bun in front of him, without looking to the side.

Masako Mori asked, somewhat puzzled, "What, are you really feeling guilty?"

"Since you've asked so sincerely, I'll be frank and tell you: I'll be staying out all night for a long time to come!"

Yakumo finished the last bun, wiped the grease from the corner of his mouth with a tissue, and he could already predict Mori Masako's next reaction.

"You, you, you're asking for it! I'll beat you to a pulp!"

"You, you, you're asking for it! I'll beat you to a pulp!"

The two spoke at the same time.

"Ahhh, don't mimic me!"

"Ahhh, don't mimic me!"

Yakumo once again successfully predicted Mori Masako's reaction.

This time, he dared not remain seated, because Masako Mori would definitely take the opportunity to make a move and start a new day of sparring.

After all, every previous exchange of skills started from this point.

"This time I'm going to flatten you!"

Three hours later, Masako Mori was exhausted and had to end the sparring session.

Masako Mori: "Phew, I feel like you've gotten stronger again?"

"Haha, you're really right."

Having experienced the great battle last night, Yakumo not only made great progress in his swordsmanship, but also greatly improved his close combat skills. The most obvious result was that he seemed much more relaxed when sparring with Masako Mori today.

In fact, battle is the best teacher, especially a life-or-death battle. Between life and death, there is not only great terror, but also precious things that can make people improve themselves rapidly, like a metamorphosis of a butterfly emerging from its cocoon.

If the process of breaking free from the cocoon fails... the result will be death.

"Meow!!?"

Milkball jumped down from the wall, expressing her dissatisfaction. Yakumo remembered that the two of them had finished all the steamed buns at breakfast.

It's obvious that Naiqiu didn't get to eat breakfast.

"That's because you don't get up for breakfast."

Yakumo took out food from her storage scroll and threw it to Milk Ball; the large steak drew a beautiful curve in the air.

The milk ball leaped into the air, its head swelled, and it opened its blood-red maw.

He snapped it in one gulp and swallowed it.

"Meow!?"

To put it another way, it means I'm not full, I want more!

"This time it's really gone."

Milkball grumbled somewhat discontentedly. It had heard this sentence too many times and would never believe Yakumo's nonsense again.

Masako Mori: "Yakumo, give Milk Ball another one."

"Okay, okay, the last piece."

Yakumo tossed out another piece of roasted meat, and Milkball returned to the bedroom satisfied, continuing to sleep.

In the past two years, Naiqiu has only done two things: eat and sleep...

Masako Mori: "Is this adventure dangerous?"

"It's not too dangerous. If we're careful... we can get out unscathed."

Currently, Yakumo's strength surpasses that of Madara Uchiha in his normal form, but is slightly weaker than Madara Uchiha in his Six Paths form, who possesses the Rinnegan and the Ten-Tails. If placed in the world of One Piece, he would definitely be at the pinnacle of the sea.

If it weren't for being surrounded and attacked by multiple people, Yakumo would never have imagined that he would fail his mission. The only person he needed to be wary of was Lord Im, whom the Five Elders knelt before.

However, it is somewhat dangerous for Mori Masako and Yukotsu Chiyuki, since the Super Kage level corresponds to the Emperor level, and the Kage level combat power should be on par with the Admiral level.

Masako Mori: "I have one more month. I will train hard!"

"Don't worry, I will do my best to help you."

"Come on, let's continue our sparring!"

Mori Masako's path involves breaking through her body's limits, developing her bloodline, and striving to improve her physical attributes after countless battles.

"Forget it, let's not spar today."

Yakumo shook his head.

The bloodline of the Otsutsuki endowed Masako Mori with an extremely strong learning ability. At this moment, Yakumo planned to teach Masako Mori other methods. Although she could reach the peak with her strong physique and superhuman strength alone, it would require the accumulation of time.

However, there are some special techniques that, once learned, can immediately enhance one's combat power.

With a loud boom, Yakumo took out two huge scrolls, and dust flew up around him, revealing the considerable weight of the two scrolls.

"This is the Immortal Mode I developed. It is no longer limited by physical conditions, but it requires extremely high mental attributes to learn."

"The other scroll contains my strongest fighting technique, Wood Release."

Yakumo explained the contents of the two scrolls to Masako Mori, changing the Intelligence attribute to Spirit to make it easier for her to understand.

"Both of these abilities are well-suited to your talents, and you can try training them. However, I suggest you learn Sage Mode first, because Sage Mode requires my assistance in training."

"Then I'll check out Sage Mode first."

Masako Mori took the scroll, slowly unfurled it, and began to read. She didn't express her gratitude to Yakumo, after all, they were family.

"Isn't this way too many words?"

"Actually, it can be summarized in one sentence: perceive and absorb natural energy, mix it with chakra, and form a more powerful Sage Chakra," Yakumo said.

Masako Mori: "Then how do we sense the power of nature?"

Yakumo replied, "It's written on the scroll."

"So, you're still showing me this scroll?"

"That's right, you have to understand the theoretical knowledge before you can start practicing."

"OK."

Masako Mori wasn't too impatient. She simply picked up the scroll and headed towards the study, while Yakumo quickly gave her instructions from behind.

"Remember, you must be by my side to actually operate the system."

Cultivating Sage Mode is an extremely dangerous process. If the forces of nature become violent within the body, it will directly lead to irreversible mutations in the body, resulting in loss of humanity at best and death at worst.
