Hokage: Ryo’s Path

From spring to autumn, Yamanaka Ryo stayed in Mt. Miaomu for another year.

During this year, Yamanaka Ryo focused his energy on consolidating the ninjutsu he knew before.

[Chidori] and its derived ninjutsu, Thunder Chakra mode, [Spiral Pill], various water escape, ice escape, and fairy modes. After a year of consolidation, Shan Zhongyuan is confident in fighting Kushina in the state of a one-tailed beast coat when he is in ice elemental or fairy mode.

After coming to Mount Miaomu for nearly 2 years, Yamanakato has gained a lot, and solved the problem of ice escape that has been plagued for many years by consuming a lot of chakra. You can also enter the fairy mode for a short time, and you have learned many water escape ninjutsu from Jiraiya.

"After leaving Konoha for two years, it's time to go back." Tianshan COSCO and Immortal Fukasaku said while lying on the grass after the duel practice.

"Yuan-chan, are you leaving?"

"Yes, thank you Fukasaku Sensei for taking care of me these past two years."

In the past two years, Fukasaku Sage has really helped Yamanaka Ryo a lot, clarifying natural energy, practicing the sage mode, and teaching the frog group hand Yamanakato is still very grateful to Fukasaku Sage.

If you want to say that you are grateful to another person who made Yamanaka Ryo grateful, it is Jiraiya. If you don't say anything else, you can say that changing the sealing technique of [Yin Seal] has benefited Yamanaka Ryo a lot. Not to mention teaching Yamanaka Ryo many water escape ninjutsu.

And Jiraiya's fairy mode has finally made great progress this year.

Jiraiya has never been able to enter the sage mode alone. Yamanaka Ryo remembered that when Jiraiya used the sage mode in the original book, he was fused with Fukasaku sage and Shima sage.

So Shan Zhongyuan and the two immortals proposed to try to merge with Jiraiya directly, and the result was the same as in the original book. With the help of the two immortals, Jilai also successfully entered the immortal mode.

Yamanakato is also very happy to help Ziraiya perfect the immortal mode, and Ziraiya returned to Konoha after successfully practicing the immortal mode. Looking at Jiraiya's wretched smile, Yamanaka Ryo probably knew his purpose of returning to Konoha.

Afterwards, Yamanakato said goodbye to the toads in Mt. Miaogi, and then the Immortal Shima, who happened to be looking for food in Konoha, used [Spiritual Art] to bring Yamanakato back to Konoha from Mt. Miaogi.

"Boss, a big bowl of seafood ramen, add two servings of char siew." The place where Yamanaka Ryo was psychically returned to Konoha happened to be near Yile Ramen.

"Okay, please wait a moment, customer." Boss Yile's action was still so fast, and after a while, a bowl of steaming seafood ramen was placed in front of Yamanaka Ryo.

"Ah? Isn't this far away! It's been a long time since I saw you, it's been almost 2 years." Boss Yile recognized Shan Zhongyuan and greeted him warmly.

"Well, I have been out of the village to practice in the past two years."

"That's right, I'm going to treat you to ramen today. It's a welcome back to the village."

"Then thank you, uncle."

Ryo Yamanaka was chatting with Boss Yile about interesting things in Mount Myogi, while eating ramen, until members of Anbe appeared beside him.

"Yan Zhongyuan, Hokage-sama has feelings."

"Uncle, it seems that the ramen can't be finished, so I'll go first."

"Well, Mr. Hokage's business is important. You can eat ramen later."

In Hokage's office, the third Hokage looked at Yamanakato with a smile, and Yamanakato was also looking at him.

After not seeing Sarutobi Hiruzen for two years, there are already many wrinkles on his face, and his hair is also a little gray. After all, he is already 50 years old, and the body of the third Hokage is not as good as before.

"Hehe, far away, you little guy, you ran to Miaomu Mountain to practice without saying a word, and you left your job at Muye Hospital."

"Master Hokage, you haven't even paid me a salary, yet you still have the nerve to say it's my job."

"Ahem, what kind of money does the child want! It's not cute, since I'm back. Go to Konoha Hospital tomorrow. This time it's your task, and there will be a reward." Said the third Hokage.

"Yes, Hokage-sama. If there is nothing else, Hokage-sama, I will leave first." Yamanaka Ryo wanted to go home to see his mother, and then wanted to chat with Kushina.

"Okay, remember to go to Konoha Hospital tomorrow."

Coming out of Hokage's office, Yamanaka Ryo immediately rushed towards the Yamanaka clan.

Jingzi Yamanaka was resting in the inner room as usual. During the two years that Yamanaka was away, she missed Yamanaka all the time. After Uchiha Teru left her, Yamanaka Ryo was her most important bond.

"Mother! Mother, are you there?" Yamanaka Keiko heard Yamanaka Ryo's voice in the inner room, Yamanaka Keiko hurriedly got up and opened the door, and seeing Yamanaka Ryo outside the door, Yamanaka Keiko burst into tears.

The mother and son had a long talk until noon. Yamanaka Keiko personally cooked for Yamanaka Ryo a lot of Yamanaka Ryo's favorite food. Although Yamanaka Ryo had eaten Ichiraku Ramen before, Yamanaka Ryo ate all the food made by his mother in order to live up to his mother's wishes.

In the afternoon, Yamanaka went out to look for Kushina, but after running for half of Konoha, he couldn't see Kushina. Yamanaka could only enter the immortal mode, sensing the existence of Kushina.

Because of Kushina's huge Chakra, Yamanaka Ryo can easily perceive her existence, and there is another familiar Chakra beside Kushina.

Running towards the perceived location, Yamanaka Ryo found Kushina in the death forest, and Jiraiya who was violently beaten by Kushina.

"Sister Kushina, what happened to Uncle Jiraiya?"

"Far away! You're back! Great! Come and beat this big pervert with me."

"Yuan, save me quickly, I didn't mean to."

Later, under the narration of the two, Yamanaka Ryo knew what happened. It turned out that Kushina was going to take a hot spring, and Jiraiya happened to be peeping at that hot spring.

Although Jiraiya has no morals, his disciple's girlfriend still won't peep. Seeing Jiu Xinnai coming at the door, he was about to withdraw, but he accidentally made a noise when he left, and Jiu Xinna found out.

After that, Kushina exploded the four tails and chased Jiraiya all the way to the death forest.

"Sister Kukunai, let's forget about it, Uncle Jiraiya didn't see anything, so please forgive him."

"Yes, Kushina, I was wrong."

"Hmph, I'll spare you for the sake of Yuan." Kushina was tired after fighting for so long, and she had a lot to say when Yamanaka Ryo came back.

The two went to the third training ground. Yamanakato and Kushina talked about his improvement in Miaomu Mountain in the past two years.

Kushina also talked about her changes in the past two years. What Yamanaka Haru did not expect was that the relationship between Kushina and Kyuubi had improved a lot.

Not long after Yamanakato went to Mt. Myogi, Minato Namikaze also left the village to go on a mission.

Kushina, who is bored by herself, often chats with Kyuubi after hearing the words that the people of the mountains and the tailed beasts can coexist peacefully. Back and forth, Kyuubi actually talked to Kushina.

With Kyuubi's response, Kushina became more energetic, and said something every day. The relationship between one person and one fox is getting better and better.

"Yuan, you're right, humans and tailed beasts can really be friends, now Xiao Jiu is my friend."

In the original book, Naruto's comrade-in-arms Kyuubi, and Kushina's relationship has become so good, so it seems that even Kyuubi's attack on the village can be avoided.
