--- Chapter 449 ---

Yunlong and Kaguya are enjoying their meal.

Meanwhile, Naruto and Sasuke have a grim look on their faces. The reality check Yunlong gives them is like a bucket of ice-cold water thrown over their heads.

Even though Naruto and Sasuke are confident in their prowess, they must admit they couldn't handle the thing Yunlong showcased through the memory bubbles.

Not to mention, knowing the Otsutsuki Clan has a powerhouse with nearly or on par strength to the otherworldly monster caused Naruto and Sasuke to feel worse.

Above all else, the Otsutsuki Clan would invade the Shinobi World soon.

These unsettling facts made Naruto and Sasuke's guts churn in worry.

Yunlong pointed his chopsticks at them, "Come on. Don't put such a face on while eating."

"Take it easy. You're making the hotpot taste sour."

"Eat, we can still salvage the situation in the Shinobi World. I've prepared enough to catch the Otsutsuki off guard."

"Are you really?" Sasuke questioned in all seriousness.

Yunlong smiled, "I won't bother lying to you guys. After this, I will show you one of my cards."

"For now, eat."

"You too, Naruto."

"Okay..." Naruto doesn't sound as energetic as he used to anymore.

They ordered more meat and vegetables because there was still so much soup left, enjoying it with a cold snowstorm outside. Unknown to Naruto and Sasuke, Yunlong has scanned their bodies and Chakra.

'Indra and Asura Chakra are still present in their bodies, but they have developed into Six Paths Chakra, albeit in their unique way.' Yunlong thought calmly.

'What do you think, Kaguya?'

Kaguya chewed a shredded cabbage and answered indifferently, 'They are doing better than I anticipated. Indra's reincarnation has mastered the Six Path, especially Yin Chakra, to the extreme, incorporating it with lightning release to create a more destructive yet controllable element transformation.'

'No, to be exact... Indra's reincarnation utilized Yin Chakra to influence his chakra pathways, generating more heat and bioelectricity. Although he won't be as strong as Asura's reincarnation in terms of physique, the standard he reached is praiseworthy.'

'We don't need to say much about his mental prowess. He has a Rinnegan and Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan.'

'On the other hand, Asura's reincarnation didn't overcomplicate his Six Path Chakra. He has potent Yang Chakra and kept feeding it into his Sage Physique. Well, his control and reserve over Nature Chakra is much better than Indra's Reincarnation.'

'He also still has the Nine-Tails, an extra battery that puts him a little higher than Indra's reincarnation.'

'Asura's reincarnation is close to becoming Demi-God physically, but didn't know how to reach it.'

'After all, Hagoromo and Hamura simply inherited it from my Otsutsuki's genes, but as many generations passed, the genes mutated, strained, and simply diverged, and all left is Lingering Reincarnation Chakra that acts slowly on physique development.'

'Overall, they are stronger than the time we fought. However, they are not strong enough to fend off the Otsutsuki's Invasion. Unless you're going to help them with the Spirit Awakening.'

Yunlong smiled inwardly, 'We will see about that after the meal.'

After the meal, Yunlong paid the bills with a pure gold bar and told the restaurant owner to keep the change.

Naruto and Sasuke thought it was too much but couldn't understand the mindset of the cultivator yet.

Materialistic stuff like ordinary gold used as currency by mortals wasn't a commodity amongst the cultivators. They preferred heaven and earth herbs, treasure, or rare techniques.

Hehe, don't worry. Yunlong would teach them slowly. After all, he didn't plan to reform the Shinobi World from the bottom because he could use individuals like Naruto and Sasuke to influence the changes.

Naruto is the Seventh Hokage.

And Sasuke is the Wandering Thunderer, or so people called him.

They are two of the strongest people on the Shinobi World's earth. Many would believe their words better. The change is going to be faster as other villages follow them.

They arrived at the Land of Spring.

Naruto frowned slightly, "Hmm, this place... Isn't this where Koyuki-nee and I fought that Doto guy? Also, why do I feel there is so much natural energy in the atmosphere?"

"You... Stop calling Land of Snow's Daimyou like that. You're a Hokage. Naruto. You should know better." Sasuke sighed helplessly.

Naruto laughed, "Hehe, it's fine. Koyuki-nee and I are very close."

"The question is, how could Sword God get his hand on this place?"

"Stop calling me Sword God." Yunlong facepalmed at this blonde fool.

"Just call me Yunlong."

He flashed a grin, "Boss is fine, too."

"..." Sasuke.

"Kay, Boss!" Naruto nodded in understanding. Yunlong truly deserved to be called a Boss for conquering Kaguya.

Yunlong disregarded Sasuke's deadpan face and answered their earlier confusion, "After we let Momoshiki and his pet dog run away, I talked with Kazahana Koyuki, and she agreed to become my vassal."

"Vice versa, the Land of Snow is the first ever to become my Bright Spirit Empire's vassal territory in the Shinobi World. Coincidentally, the Land of Spring has something I could use."

"Wait, what?" Naruto was shocked.

"This is..." Even Sasuke was speechless.

They knew Yunlong and his companions had arrived in this world yesterday.

However, Naruto and Sasuke would never think Yunlong would develop this quickly. They really underestimated Yunlong's irresistible charm on single women and his godly prowess.

"What's the matter? Is it really unbelievable?" Yunlong laughed at their dumb look.

"I had to say... You really missed a treasure, Naruto."

"W-What do you mean?" Naruto was confused.

Yunlong shook his head gently, "It doesn't matter now. Just take my words earlier as nonsense."

"Anyway, let me introduce you to a group of people."

Yunlong led Naruto and Sasuke to the Celestial Butchers, making them frown because they could tell something amiss about this group of people.

'They are not human, Naruto.' Said a voice inside Naruto.

'They are beasts. A beast who has metamorphosed into a human.'

'I don't know how Sword God did it, but he successfully transformed them biologically and spiritually. Especially that red-haired young man, I could feel extremely pure energy from him.'

"I'm sure that fox already told you." Yunlong crossed his arms.

"Yes, the 69 humans you saw here aren't 'true' humans essentially."

"They were originally oceanic beasts that I grabbed randomly, genetically modified into becoming Spirit Beast, and then I was granted wisdom and the ability to become a human."

"Of course, they are not ordinary humans. Spirit Beasts are creatures from my world. They could become stronger by aging or transform into humans by cultivating a human's path."

"I don't have a term for their kind yet, but we have decided to call them..."

"Celestial Butchers." Kaguya finished Yunlong's words. "They are one of the cards we could use to give the Otsutsuki Clan an existential crisis."

"I can't wait to see their pale faces become even paler when they realize they got defeated by jellyfish and other sea creatures."

"..." Naruto.

"..." Sasuke.

'Wait, there is a dangerous presence ahead!'

Naruto was alarmed by his partner, Kurama, and quickly looked up.

Sasuke also sensed overbearing mental power and froze on the spot.

Gu Yuena walked out from the barrier in her dragon scale kimono, wiping her silver hair with a dry towel.

She indifferently glanced at Naruto and Sasuke and gave them a mental breakdown because the literal amount of mental power and natural energy she had in her body was nearly infinite.

Unlike Yunlong, who pressured his energy to the lowest setting, making himself feel like a mortal, Gu Yuena didn't bother to.

Naruto once felt Ten Tails' Nature Chakra.

And it was a whole other dimension apart from anything he ever sensed.

On the other hand, Gu Yuena topped that by making Naruto and even Sasuke feel like sensing a literal silver galaxy.

No, she might be a universe herself!

'Good god, this woman could destroy the earth by simply existing.' Naruto swallowed his saliva nervously.

Meanwhile, Sasuke is racking his brain to find a way out of this place.

Yunlong gave Gu Yuena a helpless expression, "Okay, stop scaring the kids. You're an adult, Yuena. Have some restraint over yourself."

Gu Yuena pouted, "Well..."

"My husband's word is nothing to be trifled with."

"Husband?" Naruto and Sasuke's eyes widened in shock.

Yunlong coughed, "She's one of my wives I mentioned earlier. Her name is Gu Yuena, also known as the Silver Dragon King-! I mean, Silver Dragon Goddess."

"Nice to meet you three, especially you foxy." Gu Yuena sealed her energy, and greeted them with a smile.

Naruto and Sasuke could only nod before the presence of the Silver Dragon Goddess.

Meanwhile…

'Fuck! I thought Sword God was scary enough. My whole body trembled because of this woman. Scary, she is scary...' Kurama, the Nine-Tails, felt his animal instinct went wild for the first time.

Kurama is cowering in fear, while wrapping his foxy head with his nine tails.
