Reborn into Naruto World with Tenseigan
chapter-149

“The Sage of Six Path and the First Miko?” – Listening to Miko-Sama’s story Kuroto was a little dazed.

Kuroto isn’t sure about the First Miko but that’s not the case with the Sage of Six Path.

To others, the Sage of Six Path who created the Shinobi World may have been a character from the mythology, but that’s not the case with Kuroto, because he regards the Sage of Six Paths as just a powerful figure worth admiration.

Moreover, Kuroto knows that the Sage of Six Path may have been dead physically for countless years but that doesn’t mean he has disappeared.

His spirit still exists within the Shinobi world, monitoring the order of the world and maintaining the peace of this world as per his own standard.

This is one of the reasons why Kuroto has always been very cautious of his actions because no one could know just how powerful the Sage of Six Paths maybe, even if he is in his soul state.

After all, not only he saved the lives but also distributed half of his chakra to both Uzumaki Naruto and Uchiha Sasuke at the most critical point in the fourth great shinobi war.

And just from receiving the gifts from the Sage of Six Path:

Naruto mastered the Six Path Sage Mode and Yin-Yang release, as a result not only was he capable of using the Truth-Seeking Balls along with many other techniques but also managed to save Guy who was sure to die having opened the Eighth Gate and created an entirely new eye for Kakashi.

While Sasuke awakened the six tomoe Rinnegan that even allowed him to learn a special type of rare space-time technique, mastered all the chakra nature, as a result, he could play around with all the tailed beast as toys with just one look, can travel between dimensions along with many other techniques.

Therefore, Kuroto believes that even if the Sage of Six Path is not as strong as his peak, he is still the strongest in the Shinobi World even in his soul state, and no way in hell would Kuroto want to offend such a being, therefore, Kuroto is very mindful of his actions.

After all, he is more than sure that by now he would have definitely caught the Sage of Six Path’s attention, therefore, Kuroto can’t afford to do something that would make him an enemy of such a god.

As for the treasured tools of the Sage of Six Path?

Kuroto recalled it, and it seems that among the five tools used by the Kinkaku and Ginkaku brothers, there was indeed a gourd tool, ‘If I recall it correctly, it was called Benihisago, does that mean that the gourd was also picked up from the Mother tree of the Morning Valley?’

With this question in his mind, Kuroto walked towards the gourd vine the hung between the small tree hole and observed it with the Tenseigan.

Although the Gourd Vine hung inside the tree hole looked very ordinary, but it contained a very high amount of natural energy.

After looking at the vine, Kuroto observed the Mother Tree and noticed that the tree was acting as a medium of transferring the Natural Energy into the gourd, and finally, the roots of the Mother Tree went way deep into the ground and absorbed Natural Energy from the Earth Veins.

‘So, this Mother Tree can absorb Natural Energy from the Earth Veins!’ – after discovering this strangeness, Kuroto was really surprised.

And while Kuroto was thinking about all this, Miko-Sama also came near the lake and spoke, “The first Miko turned herself into the tree after separating from her other half, and the Miko of the further generations have always guarded this valley, in fact, other than the Miko of each generation, nobody in the entire world knows of this place, you are the second one if the legend of the Sage of Six Path is true!”

“It is indeed my honor!” – Kuroto murmured in a daze.

“The Mother Tree produces a Gourd Vine every 30 years and each gourd is an excellent material to create a treasured artifact.” – Added Miko-Sama.

“So when will this gourd be ready for the harvest?”

“That’s where I said that you were lucky to have come at just the right time, this gourd has fully matured a few months ago, and has been ready for the harvest!” – With a chuckle, she continued, “If you had come at a later date, I might have already used it to make some artifact.”

Kuroto was indeed happy but there was a hesitation, how can he take such a precious thing?

Miroku noticed Kuroto’s hesitation and spoke, “If you feel uncomfortable about it, then think of this gourd as the payment for the task of eliminating Yomi and his cult from the Land of Demons, that sounds acceptable doesn’t it?”

Kuroto nodded, if he was to still deny it, then that would be spitting on the kindness of Miko-Sama, who is akin to a teacher for Kuroto.

With Kuroto’s nod, Miroku smiled and plucked off the gourd from the Tree.

As soon as it was detached from the tree, the gourd’s color changed from green to cyan and it looked very ordinary from the outside, but after experiencing decades of growth under Natural Energy, it has turned into an extremely rare material.

As per Kuroto’s requests, Miko-Sama added Miko’s Fuinjutsu on the small gourd which strengthed its Chakra isolating ability and then passed it to Kuroto.

After receiving the gourd from Miko-Sama, Kuroto found that exactly as he wanted; the Chakra isolating ability of the Gourd was extremely strong, so much so that even his Tenseigan Chakra couldn’t pass through it.

With that done, Kuroto immediately walked a distance and after placing the gourd before him, he released the Ryuumyaku’s seal.

As the Ryuumyaku’s seal was lifted, this heavy Chakra pressure of Ryuumyaku immediately swept the entire mountain cave and the heavy wind started rising above.

Whish… Whish… Whish…

Miko-Sama understood that the Ryuumyaku sealed within Kuroto-Kun was about to come out and hid behind a large piece of stone, and only poked half of her from the side to see the appearance of the legendary Ryuumyaku.

At this time, a purple figure emerged out of Kuroto’s belly and took the shape into the air.

Undoubtedly, the purple figure was the body of the Ryuumyaku.

Since the Ryuumyaku isn’t a real tailed beast, therefore, even if it is extracted from Kuroto’s main body, it wouldn’t endanger his life, not to mention that spiritually he will still be connected with the Ryuumyaku, so no threat.

The Ryuumyaku that has was no longer subject to the seal restraints immediately swelled rapidly and covered the whole sky, as a result shadowing the entire cave mountain.

“Uh…”

Looking at the chubby figure of Ryuumyaku floating in the air, the Miko-Sama hiding behind the large rock fell into a dazed state for a second as she was reminded of the Moryo, but immediately that feeling went away as there was no maliciousness from this chakra, moreover, she just couldn’t feel scared by the chubby and cute figure of Ryuumyaku.

She really didn’t expect that the legendary Ryuumyaku would look like this!

From the corner of his eyes, Kuroto looked at Miko-Sama trying to restrain her laughter, and he couldn’t help feeling embarrassed about it.

“Fuin!” – Not wanting to think about it, he hurriedly sealed the Ryuumyaku inside the gourd.

Thankfully, there was no resistance from the Ryuumyaku, so as soon as Kuroto cast the seal, it was sucked into the small gourd.

With that completed, Kuroto finally breathed a sigh of relief.

After the seal was completed, Miko-Sama came over and asked while staring at the gourd, “Why does it have that appear-…”

Before Miko-Sama could finish her words, Kuroto hurriedly exclaimed, “I-it was an accident, that’s all, I didn’t design it like that!”

Miko-Sama chuckled looking at Kuroto’s embarrassment, “I didn’t know that you have such cute interests, If Shion were to see it, she would definitely love it.”

With no retort left to Miko-Sama’s teasing, Kuroto could only lower his head to hide the embarrassment and pretend to check the state of the small gourd.

With the Ryuumyaku sealed within the gourd, as long as Kuroto has the small gourd to his side, he can continue to take Chakra from the Ryuumyaku because of his spiritual connection with the Ryuumyaku, therefore, he is still an artificial Jinchuriki.

The only problem would the efficiency, because of the extra layer of isolation thanks to the Gourd, the efficiency would be decreased to a certain extent.

But with no other option available, this is already the best option Kuroto could have asked for at this time, so instead of complaining, he focused on the other issue.

And that is the increased danger of the Ryuumyaku going on a rampage.

Since the Ryuumyaku no longer being sealed within his body, the danger does increase but thanks to the sealing technique placed by Miko-Sama, this danger is still within the acceptable range, and as long as he doesn’t excessively use Ryuumyaku’s Chakra or completely release Ryuumyaku, the probability of Ryuumyaku running away would be very low.

With that out of the way, since the size of the Gourd is only about as big as a small water bottle, so Kuroto tied a string around it and wrapped the gourd directly around his waist.

With the issue of Ryuumyaku resolved, Kuroto turned towards Miko-Sama and bowed thankfully, “I am again grateful to you for not only helping me but also sharing such valuable information and treasure with me, and I am even more grateful that you see me worthy enough to have your trust. Now, as promised, I will eliminate Yomi and his cult, please give me all the information that you have so that I can immediately get rid of them!”

Miko-Sama smiled kindly and nodded after which she took out a scroll and handed it to Kuroto.

Taking the scroll, Kuroto looked over to see the intel mapping the several possible strongholds of Yomi, including the information about the several main leaders under him. Among them, a character was particularly highlighted with red ink, with the name, Yomi!
