Chapter 31 - 31 (2/2)

Ryo still craved the power increase delivered by sage mode. But it seems he can only use Ice with natural energy. The problem with that is that he'll probably have to rely only on his Chakra for other releases.

Ryo felt that he was imprisoned in this 7-year-old body of his. He is doomed with being limited with his body's maximum Chakra. Now that maximum is barely on the level of a Special Jounin.

The problem with having such a body can't be solved for now, but the over-consumption of chakra for elementization can be solved by learning Senjutsu. This got Ryo excited for the future, for he will be able to use many High-level Ice Jutsus without using Chakra.

He estimates that this should be enough for him to fight Kushina in her Cloak mode, and while she's almost on a Kage level with that, Ryo still wants more: The 3rd world war is no small deal.

”Fukasaku Sama, when can we start?” Ryo asked him impatiently.

”At any time, as long as Jiraya Chan agrees!”

”Me? I have no objections. This little devil is a Yamanaka, and an apprentice of Kushina. Learning Senjutsu would only improve his strength, and that's good for Konoha's sake.”

Jiraya always had Konoha above all. He knew that the Ino-Chika-Cho clans have always been loyal to the village, and that Kushina is a heir of the will of fire.  Her disciples shouldn't be bad. And this kid is the backbone of the Konoha Hospital. He was very happy to agree.

”Well then Ryo Chan, Prepare yourself, and three days later, you'll be reverse summoned by Ma.”

”Ok, thank you so much Fukasaku sama!”

”If there's nothing more, I'll be gone!”

”Boss, Take care!” Jiraya answered him.

Fukasaka waved at everyone and returned to Mount Myoboku.

”Ryo, don't practice tomorrow. Go with Kushina and buy some M.R.Ps and some food pills.” Minato patted on Ryo's shoulder as he told him that advice.

His words came with his own memories, and brought back some to Jiraya's mind as well. Both of their faces turned green! Ryo also was reminded by Minato's words of the food consumed in Mount Myoboku.

”Kushina Nechan, please! Let's go shopping with me tomorrow!”

”Okay! But what happened to them?” Kushina was puzzled about what happened to the other two contractors, as she didn't know about that food.

”I don't know either. They just mentioned Mount Myoboku. That's it. It may be because the food there isn't delicious!”

”Is that it Minato?” Kushina asked her boyfriend.

”Yeah, that's right!” Minato just wanted to stop talking about this topic.

”Kakashi, tomorrow you will accompany me too” Ryo remembers suddenly that Kakashi was being ignored by everyone.

Kakashi, on the other hand, is continuing to work on Rasengan. Hearing Ryo's words, he stopped and nodded.

Ryo has been living in Konoha now for over 7 years. This is the 1st time in this life that he takes a step into the outside world.
