While Reiji was busy teaching Kushina about Fuinjutsu, on the other side, Tsunade, Jiraiya, and Orochimaru continued to explore the Village of Uzushio.
In the past few days, the three of them had roamed almost every corner of the village, trying to understand what made this place so special.
However, the deeper they investigated, the clearer it became that the Village of Uzushio held many secrets they were unaware of.
This village was not just a home for a clan known for its sealing techniques—there was something much larger happening behind the scenes.
The Village of Uzushio had developed in a way that should have been impossible within just a few years.
The village streets were filled with buildings featuring unique architecture, adorned with things that seemed to serve specific functions.
The air around the village felt fresher, and strangely, there was no smell of burning wood in the morning or evening as they usually encountered in other villages.
As they entered several houses, they discovered items that had never been found in the outside world.
Fans that spun without needing to be hand-cranked, devices capable of cooling a room even in hot weather.
Refrigerators that kept food fresh for days, and stoves that ignited without traditional fuel.
Each of these innovations was not just a convenience but also a significant change in the way of life for the people of Uzushio.
Tsunade observed one of the refrigerators in awe.
Where Tsunade touched its surface, she felt the cold seeping out from within.
"This... is truly amazing." Tsunade's voice sounded almost like a whisper.
Jiraiya, who was usually more interested in beautiful women than technology, was now more focused on every device they encountered.
"Who actually created all of this?" Jiraiya murmured with a look of wonder and admiration.
Orochimaru, who had a deeper curiosity than his two companions, carefully examined the small seal engravings embedded in almost every magical item they found.
Orochimaru's golden eyes narrowed. "All of this works using Fuinjutsu... But not ordinary Fuinjutsu."
Even more surprisingly, these items had never been sold to the outside world.
Unlike the Explosive Tags, which had recently become a major commodity for the Uzumaki Clan, these innovative tools remained exclusive to the residents of the Village of Uzushio.
This made the three of them wonder what exactly this village was planning.
The longer they stayed here, the more they realized that the Uzumaki Clan was not only thriving but also strengthening itself in silence.
"If they continue to develop like this..." Tsunade bit her lip, then turned to her two companions. "Konoha must be careful."
Jiraiya and Orochimaru nodded. They understood the meaning behind Tsunade's words.
Although Uzushio and Konoha were currently cooperating, there was no guarantee that this relationship would last forever.
Konoha had always had internal conflicts, and if circumstances changed one day, the Village of Uzushio could become an unexpected threat.
"After we return, we must inform Master Hiruzen," Tsunade said firmly. "Konoha must not have conflicts with the Village of Uzushio."
However, what they did not know was that even though they did not desire conflict, fate had already begun to weave its threads...
...
...
...
Somewhere far from the hustle and bustle of the village, in the basement of Reiji's house, a much more ominous atmosphere was unfolding.
Inside the Training Room, Reiji stood frozen with wide eyes, staring at a scene that he could hardly believe.
Kushina stood across from him, looking breathless, with her hands still raised, as if she could still feel the remnants of energy she had just released.
Kushina's red hair fluttered lightly, stirred by the residual pressure filling the room.
Kushina's violet eyes sparkled, filled with surprise and excitement.
