A glowing symbol suddenly appeared on his wrist, pulsing slowly like a heartbeat that was quickening. An emergency signal.
Reiji squinted, his expression shifting instantly from relaxed to serious.
He quickly recognized the source—The Special Watch he had previously given to Kushina.
"Heh... looks like I have to go," Reiji murmured softly.
Reiji turned to Ise, who was still busy with his work. "Hey, Ise, I'm leaving. Just continue with the Chakra Cannon research."
Ise looked over with a slightly surprised expression.
"Sir, can't you stay a bit longer?" Ise asked hesitantly, a shy smile forming on his face.
Reiji merely smiled faintly. "I'm busy. Besides, that thing isn't going to explode, so don't worry."
Without waiting for further response, Reiji stepped out of the laboratory.
The morning air greeted Reiji as he walked out of the quiet Research Area.
The buildings stood tall, but there was hardly anyone in sight.
The scientists and engineer ninjas working there were still engrossed in their respective experiments inside closed rooms.
The distance between the Uzushio Village and Konoha could not be said to be close, but it wasn't too far either.
If a regular person were to make the journey, it would take them twenty to thirty days to reach their destination.
However, for a ninja, the journey could be completed in ten to thirteen days.
In Kushina's case, she was escorted by the Future Three Sannin of Konoha—Tsunade, Jiraiya, and Orochimaru.
With their speed, the journey only took seven days.
Last night, they finally arrived in Konoha, and as soon as they got there, Kushina immediately contacted Karina using the Special Watch.
But more importantly...
Reiji had previously instructed Kushina: "If you meet Mito Uzumaki, activate the emergency signal."
At first, Kushina hesitated to do so. However, it seemed that Kushina followed Reiji's orders.
Now, the signal had reached Reiji.
Reiji clenched his fist.
Without wasting any time, Reiji quickly walked into his house, heading straight to his private room.
The air inside felt slightly cooler than usual.
Reiji took a deep breath, preparing himself to use a power he rarely displayed.
"Yamata-no-Orochi."
In Reiji's mind, a heavy and authoritative voice echoed.
"I know."
Chakra began to flow wildly.
The flow of energy surrounded Reiji's body, forming an aura so dense that the air around him vibrated.
A blue light pulsed from Reiji's entire body, like a whirlpool of energy that grew stronger over time.
"Fuinjutsu: One Point Location Transfer!"
Reiji's voice resonated in the room.
In an instant, the light surrounding Reiji transformed into a teleportation vortex.
The energy formed a glowing spiral that intensified.
In just a few seconds, Reiji's body began to disappear, swallowed by a flash of light.
In the blink of an eye, Reiji had vanished from his spot.
The journey to Konoha had begun.
...
...
...
The soft morning sunlight shone into the room, casting long shadows on the wooden floor.
The air in this house felt calm, but there was an undeniable tension.
The faint aroma of herbal tea mixed with the distinctive scent of old wood from the furniture that had been used for years.
Inside the room, a blonde girl with golden-brown eyes sat beside the bed of an elderly woman.
The girl appeared to be around seventeen or eighteen years old, and her expression showed a mix of determination and concern.
She wore the traditional attire of a kunoichi, with a jacket bearing the Senju clan emblem.
The girl was Tsunade Senju, a talented member of the Senju clan who would later become a legend in the shinobi world.
