Yuzuru remained there until dawn before slowly waking from his ditative state.
Looking at the Everlasting Imperial Palace hanging high in the sky, Yuzuru's feet slowly left the ground.
The next second...
Whoosh!
Yuzuru shot straight into the air like an arrow loosed from a bow.
After gaining the Rinnegan, he could now fly through the sky even without using sand.
Although long-distance flight was definitely not as comfortable as sitting on sand, it was far more convenient, and it looked much more imposing.
This...
This was the power of a god!
When he arrived at the Everlasting Imperial Palace, Tsunade, Kushina, Karura, and the others were gathered together for breakfast.
When they saw Yuzuru walk in, everyone first looked up with smiles on their faces, only to freeze in place a mont later.
After a long while, Tsunade was the first to recover. She asked, "Yuzuru, your eyes..."
"The Rinnegan."
Yuzuru answered concisely.
Hearing that, everyone imdiately put down their breakfast and gathered around him.
"Wow! It's actually the Rinnegan. Yuzuru, I feel like you've gotten even more handso!"
"My husband is handso no matter what. But... darling, why did your eyes suddenly beco like this?"
"They're just like Nagato's eyes. Yuzuru, don't tell you dug Nagato's eyes out and transplanted them into yourself?"
Hearing everyone chattering around him, Yuzuru had no choice but to explain, "These eyes evolved on their own."
"As for the reason..."
"If Madara could do it, then how could I, soone who controls the entire shinobi world, possibly fail to do the sa?"
Hearing that, everyone finally relaxed.
After living together with Yuzuru for so long, and personally experiencing all kinds of powerful enhancents from the clan entry draws, they naturally knew that Yuzuru was hiding an enormous secret.
But since Yuzuru did not say anything, they would not ask too much. They would not even make too many guesses.
As long as Yuzuru treated them sincerely, that was enough.
Yuzuru sat down and ate the steaming soup dumplings. Seeing that the won were still staring at him without blinking, he could not help asking, "What's wrong? Is there dirt on my face?"
Tsunade imdiately said, "If you know, then wipe it off already. What a weirdo!"
"Huh?!"
"I'm joking..."
Seeing Yuzuru startled, the won could not help laughing all at once.
That sight was even more dazzling than walking into a garden of a hundred blooming flowers.
"Yuzuru, I don't know if it's because I'm still not used to it, but after your eyes beca the Rinnegan, your whole presence feels much colder and more aloof..."
"I feel the sa. It's like... there's a trace of divinity in you?"
"Yuzuru, you won't abandon us in the future, right?"
Sensing their worries, Yuzuru chuckled and said, "Of course not. It's not like I'm cultivating so heartless path..."
"You all have to stay with until the end of ti!"
Yuzuru chatted with Tsunade and the others until the afternoon. After showing them so of the Rinnegan's abilities, he finally went to the Hokage Building.
When Fugaku saw Yuzuru, he was startled.
"Yuzuru, your eyes..."
"Fugaku, I'll explain that to you later. For now, summon everyone. I'm going to revive the Ten-Tails!"
Hearing that, Fugaku did not dare delay and imdiately took action.
Yugito was lying comfortably beneath a tree when she suddenly saw Mabui rushing toward her.
"Mabui, what's wrong?"
Mabui said with so worry in her voice, "Yugito, Lord Yuzuru is summoning all the Tailed Beast jinchuriki. I suspect he may be planning to revive the Ten-Tails."
"You..."
Yugito spat out the blade of grass she had been holding between her lips, then a faint smile appeared on her face. "Mabui, this is also for the future of the shinobi world."
"Even if I die, I'll do so willingly."
"Rember to tell Anko that I probably won't be able to create a chance for her to spend ti alone with Lord Yuzuru anymore."
Seeing the carefree smile on Yugito's face, Mabui sighed. "I understand. You... take care of yourself."
"Don't worry!"
Yugito disappeared from the spot.
She had not eaten breakfast at the Everlasting Imperial Palace that morning, so she did not know that Yuzuru had already obtained the Rinnegan.
As far as Yugito was concerned, the problem of jinchuriki dying after their Tailed Beast was extracted had never been solved.
Now that Yuzuru had suddenly summoned them, the Tailed Beast jinchuriki, ti must have run out.
Utakata was blowing bubbles on a tree by the riverside when an Anbu suddenly appeared before him.
"Lord Utakata, Lord Emperor has summoned the Tailed Beast jinchuriki. Please co with us."
Hearing that, Utakata smiled and nodded.
From the day Yuzuru found him, he had already expected this outco.
Being able to live until now was already good enough.
Thinking of that, Utakata took out a letter he had written long ago from inside his clothes.
"Help deliver this letter to Hotaru."
"I will."
"Let's go."
Inside a dessert shop.
Sakura Haruno, Hinata Hyuga, Tenten, Ajisai, Temari, Ino Yamanaka, Fū, and the others were gathered together for afternoon tea.
As classmates from the Ninja Academy, they had continued keeping in touch even after graduation.
Every now and then, everyone would make plans to have afternoon tea together or go shopping.
After all, once they graduated from the Ninja Academy, finding a job they liked was extrely simple.
And with a good job, they naturally had plenty of free ti.
Ino took a sip of milk tea and asked, "Sakura, how are things going for you at Konoha Hospital?"
Sakura smiled. "Not bad. Senior Rin and Senior Shizune both said I'm very talented, so they're preparing to recomnd to Lady Tsunade."
"Hiss... then you'd better seize that chance."
"A favored position gives you an edge. Maybe it will really lead to you and Yuzuru-sama dating."
Ino had grown up with Sakura since childhood, and the two knew each other inside and out.
Naturally, she knew what Sakura desired most deep down.
Sakura did not act shy. Instead, a trace of anticipation surfaced in her eyes. "I'll work hard!"
Ino smiled and said, "If you need anything, the doors of my flower shop are always open to you."
After hearing the conversation between Sakura and Ino, Temari, Tenten, and the others showed envious looks.
In the current shinobi world, what young girl in the pri of her youth did not dream of marrying Lord Yuzuru?
Hinata and Ajisai, however, did not say much.
One of them had eaten together with Yuzuru and participated in an eating contest with him when she was little, and even now, she could occasionally visit the Everlasting Imperial Palace.
The other was an orphan Yuzuru had personally rescued from the battlefield, and Yuzuru still sent her a birthday gift every year.
So naturally, neither of them envied Sakura.
Just as everyone was chatting idly, an Anbu ninja suddenly appeared.
"Fū, Lord Emperor wishes to see you. Co with ."
