Chapter 98 – Back Home
"Guren!!!" Sakura wrapped herself around Guren, burying his head in her slightly bigger than modest breasts, which grew this big because of his training.
"I am home?"
Sakura kissed his head, lovingly stroking his pink hair, "You are home..."
"Gureeeennn!!!"
"Mm?" Sakura moved back, seeing Karin rush over, holding a sword in her hand. She started piercing the katana's tip towards Guren's head, trying her best to attack him. But he effortlessly dodged it, smacking her wrist. He held the katana, pivoting on his feet to smoothly appear behind Karin Kurosaki, placing the sharp blade on her neck, "Now, that's not very sweet."
"Damn it! I trained a lot, and I got so much better!"
"I know, you just not effortlessly used the katana as a rapier and then changed to katana without a change in the gear. It was beautiful," Guren cupped her breasts that were starting to grow, "You have grown. Karin."
"Ump," Karin moaned, blushing, "Guren..."
Her stomach was a nervous knot with Sakura here, she tried to peek, but Sakura was just smiling, acting as if she didn't notice. Instead, she bent down, looking into Guren's eyes, "Baby...your eyes have changed...so much."
Karin glanced backward, trying to look into his eyes, seeing the violet look in them, hearing him, "Yeah, they have. I awakened my Sharingan...but when I did...my eyes permanently changed."
"Hmm," Sakura carefully looked in them, kissing his eyelid, "They are beautiful, just like you."
"Guren?!"
Guren let go of Karin, turning back, waving his hand, "Sarada...I am home."
Sarada rushed over, jumping in his arms, hugging him tightly, "Welcome home..."
"Good work, getting Mom back..."
Sarada buried her head in his shoulder, "It wasn't me...it was Dad and Seventh...they were amazing...so cool...and strong...I have been training, and I got a lot stronger. During a class trip, we met so many powerful Ninjas! I have been training my Sharingan too! All that practice wearing AR Headset and my Sharingan has Two Tomoe's now. And...and..."
Guren placed his finger on her lips, "Sarada...I am home...we can talk slowly...I'll hear everything."
Sarada closed her eyes, hugging him tightly, "Yeah."
"Where is Yuzu?" Guren looked around the house but didn't feel her chakra.
"She's still training with Lord Hokage," Sakura said, patting his back, "Sit down. I'll explain."
Shortly,
Guren sat on the dining table, "Oh, Yuzu is learning to manipulate pure chakra to create weapons other than bows from Lord Seventh?"
Sakura smiled, putting snacks, sweets, juices, and tea in front of Guren, spoiling him, "Yes, now that so many new Secretaries for Naruto. They are vetting the work down for him, allowing him to have more free time.
Hinata noticed how similar Yuzu's bloodline limit was to Naruto's own ability to control massive amounts of Kurama's chakra and use it. So she asked Naruto to give Yuzu some tips."
"It's not fair, really," Sarada curled her lips, "Now she can do things like creating hundreds of shurikens without using her own chakra. Even making stuff like swords and shields using the chakra in the air. If it wasn't for her personality that didn't like fighting unless necessary, then she would be so fearsome."
Sakura sighed, smiling, "With a personality like Hinata and abilities like Naruto, some might even mistake her for their daughter."
"It's not fair," Karin curled her lips, "Quincy Lineage is more suited to these things than my Lineage."
"But you can always shed your body and let your teammates protect you. Using the opportunity to go invisible and attack others. You should be the last person to say that," Sarada complained, "Both your abilities aren't fair!"
Karin raised her chin, "Oh, when you put it like that...I am good, ain't I?"
"Shut up," Sarada looked away, "It's not fair..."
"Well, technically, you can progress as fast as them too, you know," Guren leaned forward, looking at Sarada smiling.
"How?" Sarada excitedly got on her feet, leaning towards Guren, who pointed his eyes.
"Even when deactivated, these eyes can see a lot," Guren shifted his eyes, raising his hand. He caused chakra to collect on his palm, becoming visible, "This is chakra..."
He raised his finger upwards, causing another sphere to appear, "This is natural energy...the one that Lord Seventh uses for Sage Mode."
"You can do that?" Sakura tilted her head in surprise, even though she knew he had mastered Sage Mode and much more before, but it still came as a surprise that he could do it again.
"No, but now that I can see energy, it's as easy as taking out water from a still river," Guren smiled, raising another hand. And another sphere appeared, but it was more solid, "It's Spiritual Particles and Physical Particles that are mixing in the air. They are few, still, but they are there, always increasing."
"Ohhhhh..." Sarada was entranced, watching it, "I didn't know there was something like this in the air..."
"Yes, and you see. Yuzu and Karin have control over Spiritual Energy, so they are currently standing a stair above you. But once you start mastering Spiritual Energy, even a bit of it reaches the necessary levels. You will be able to see them even when they are in Spiritual State...and see what happened to my eye. After it was mixed with unreal levels of Spiritual Energy? Your Sharingan may be enhanced too in time."
"Awesome! How do I control these Particles?!" Sarada looked towards Spiritual Particles, entranced.
"That..." Guren removed them, "I don't know, and I would need a few experimentations to realize how to do that. Since one of there are only two ways to gain Spiritual Particles that I know for sure."
"What? Tell me, please?"
"First is...Die."
"Huh?" Sarada tilted her head with no idea, "What?"
"Exactly, die and go to the afterlife, and you might be able to attain Spiritual Pressure."
"That's just stupid!!"
"It is," Karin leaned back, laughing, "Our father was a Soul who lived in a Gigai and all. It's complicated, but basically, our Dad is Dead."
"This is so confusing," Sarada felt her head swirl, "The other...?"
"The other is to be chosen by the Fragment of God and be born with it. Which grants you Fullbring and access to Spiritual Energy."
"That's..." Sarada made a fist, "You!!! Gureeennnn!!!"
"Wait, wait," Guren held her wrist, stopping her punch from breaking the table, "There is one other way..."
"What?"
Guren pushed her chest, causing Sarada's soul to fly out of her body, seeing Guren's cold eyes, "I can just kill you for a while."
"Huh...?"
