Naruto: What Kind of Starter Pack is 13 Years Late?

"The Ninja World hasn't been peaceful lately."

Inside a training ground in Konoha, Kakashi, Guy, and Jiraiya were sitting together with Takemi.

Naruto, Sasuke, and Neji's three-person team were training not far away.

Jiraiya looked at the little brats in the distance, rubbed his still swollen face, and sighed.

"Whether it's the Akatsuki or that mysterious Ōtsutsuki Takeshiki, they are both extremely unsettling factors."

"…"

Takemi chuckled awkwardly, while Kakashi nodded gravely.

"That's right. Especially that Ōtsutsuki Takeshiki, he specifically targeted the Nine-Tails' Chakra, and both Obito and Itachi were soundly defeated by him. This guy…"

Guy spoke up, "He's terrifying and troublesome."

He knew that Kakashi had fought these people many times without a decisive outcome, but this time, he lost so badly.

But soon, Guy became incredibly excited again and said, "However, opponents like this only make me more excited! Constantly challenging strong opponents is true youth!"

"…"

Takemi, Jiraiya, and Kakashi looked at Guy's constantly flashing front teeth, and for a moment, their lips twitched.

"Jiraiya-sama, didn't you say you were going to Mount Myōboku? Did you get any results?" Kakashi rubbed his forehead and finally turned to look at Jiraiya.

"Some, but…"

Upon hearing this, Jiraiya's body trembled slightly.

That day, with the overwhelming roar of Senjutsu Chakra, the entire Mount Myōboku trembled continuously.

That monstrous Chakra made his scalp tingle, especially since he was so close, it almost instantly blew him away.

Such a big reaction was unprecedented in Jiraiya's memory.

He had seen the Great Toad Sage many times. Besides feeling thta he was unfathomable, he was just kind, farsighted, and senile.

Most likely, he could fall asleep at any time and never wake up. But this time, he finally understood how terrifying the Great Toad Sage truly was.

Such a terrifying existence, yet he had such a huge reaction just by hearing a name…

Finally, he shook his head and sighed. "The Toad Sage in Mount Myōboku is said to have lived for over a thousand years."

"And when he heard the name 'Ōtsutsuki Takeshiki,' his reaction was incredibly huge."

"Unfortunately, he didn't say too much in the end, only warning me to be extremely careful before sending me away."

At this point, everyone fell silent.

The fewer words, the bigger the matter.

Clearly, everyone present understood what this meant, which made them very worried.

Who exactly was this Ōtsutsuki Takeshiki, to be able to make the legendary Sage of Mount Myōboku react like that?

But they didn't notice that Takemi, who was sitting beside them, had an unusual expression.

He even looked a bit awkward…

"Although I expected it, the after-effects are too strong, aren't they?" Looking at the silent crowd, he could only play dumb.

He wasn't a Shadow Clone now, his main body had returned.

After properly handling the absorption of those energies, he didn't dare to wander around outside anymore.

After all, he knew that the things he had caused were somewhat significant, and he wanted to see what the final consequences would be.

But he hadn't expected that after returning for a few days without anything major happening, Jiraiya would come over and give him a big surprise.

"But this is normal. After all, he's someone who fought Kaguya a thousand years ago. It would be strange if he didn't react to a new Ōtsutsuki."

In his opinion, it wasn't just the Great Toad who was affected. Black Zetsu was probably also greatly affected.

He wanted to save his mother, but suddenly an Ōtsutsuki appeared. He must be struggling immensely, right?

"Why think about them? I gained a lot this time."

How Black Zetsu and the Great Toad Sage were doing had little to do with Takemi. That was Ōtsutsuki Takeshiki's business.

As long as he didn't easily expose himself and didn't sign a contract with Mount Myōboku, there wouldn't be any problems.

"Ōtsutsuki Takeshiki is Ōtsutsuki Takeshiki, Takemi is Takemi, but Ōtsutsuki Takeshiki has gotten stronger again this time."

This time, he absorbed the Nine-Tails' Chakra. Although he gained a lot of its characteristics, the quality was somewhat poor.

But combined with the inherent Yin Release within the Totsuka Blade, it still gave him a huge boost.

"Bloodline development reached 36%…"

This rate of progress wasn't fast, but it definitely wasn't slow either.

Moreover, there were still many secrets within Totsuka Blade to explore, and he could have the Ryumyaku continuously replenish the Nine-Tails' Chakra.

Once all of these were fulfilled, his improvement would continue.

"And this time, it was both a Tailed Beast and Yin Release, so my eyes benefited the most."

Under this wave of impact, he clearly felt that the absorption speed and progress of his eyes had significantly improved.

Even though it was still [Nascent Eye], he gained a very interesting ability.

Silver Wheel Reincarnation Explosion.

In fact, when he first saw this ability, his mind was full of questions.

"If I remember correctly, this move seems to require Tenseigan Chakra Mode and Truth-Seeking Balls to activate, right?"

In his understanding, the Tenseigan and Rinnegan were actually of similar strength, but their respective focuses were slightly different.

The Rinnegan contained more techniques. In other words, it relied on the mechanisms of those techniques to crush enemies.

The Tenseigan, on the other hand, was more like an eye that purely displayed the 'beauty of numerical values.'

Whether it was the Tenseigan Chakra Mode, or the Silver Wheel Reincarnation Explosion that came with activating the mode, and the Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion that could cut the moon, these were all displays of ultimate destructive power.

Takemi naturally yearned for this power, but he obtained this ability without his eyes improving. Wasn't it a bit too early?

"However, it doesn't seem like there's no solution…"

Having obtained such an ability, even if it wasn't the Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion, it was enough for him to deal with most enemies currently.

He naturally wouldn't just watch. He had to think carefully about how to use this technique.

"I don't have the Truth-Seeking Balls, but I just got the Totsuka Blade. Using Black Rods to control Totsuka Blade as a weapon shouldn't be a big problem, right?"

"As for Tenseigan Chakra Mode, I don't have it, and I'm temporarily not considering using Sage Mode on 'Ōtsutsuki Takeshiki.'"

"But I have 'the Moon's Blessing'…"

He had discovered that as long as he focused on sustainability, it seemed like the moon's giant Tenseigan wouldn't 'cut off supply.'

Since that was the case, why not try using the moon's power as the core?
