Afterward, Uchiha Yoichi took Nohara Rin home, bathed with her, and only left her house after seeing her settle down to rest.
——————————————
The third summoning of Exotic Beasts directly brought out the Dinosaur King, a Dragon-level monster from the One-Punch World.
Its abilities are very similar to Godzilla's, but it's considered a poor-quality version.
Karin and Naruto didn't like it, Kimimaro and Itachi shook their heads in refusal, and in the end, the Dinosaur King was drained of its life by Uchiha Yoichi, turning into a pile of weathered fragments.
On the fourth try, a beast that even Uchiha Yoichi nearly lost control of was summoned, the Golden Behemoth King.
Uchiha Yoichi's clone sensed something was wrong and immediately transferred the others, which led to a fierce battle. It forced Uchiha Yoichi to continuously use three Truth-Seeking Orbs to bombard it, nearly sinking the Land of Whirlpools, before knocking the Golden Behemoth King unconscious.
That guy could take a serious beating, with its attack methods being quite ordinary, yet its recovery and defense almost pushed its talents to the limit.
Upon inquiry, it was decided that Uzumaki Naruto would become the Jinchuriki for the Golden Behemoth King.
Karin, Kimimaro, and Itachi learned from Uchiha Yoichi that once an Exotic Beast is sealed within one's body, one will gradually absorb the beast's abilities, thereby altering their combat style accordingly.
Itachi and Kimimaro wanted to observe other beasts, Karin was somewhat conflicted, but eventually gave in to Uzumaki Naruto; she believed Uchiha Yoichi would give her a better Exotic Beast seal, so she let go of this one she didn't much care for.
In the end, Naruto happily sealed the Tailed Beast and gained some life energy, quickly recovering afterward.
The current power of the Golden Behemoth King has yet to manifest, but once Naruto absorbs its energy, it will slowly reveal itself.
A humanoid Behemoth, which signifies a Titan Race.
Returning home, Uzumaki Naruto was still too thrilled to sleep, finding himself now on par with Sasuke, leading to a competition to see who would train harder.
Kushina comforted Naruto for a long time, but he remained eager to train late at night, forcing the patiently worn-out Kushina to lift him up and give him a few slaps on the behind, after which Naruto yelped and went to sleep.
"This foolish son, who knows how much trouble he'll cause me when he gets to Ninja Academy...."
Kushina returned to her room in a huff and then said to Minato: "Minato, let's rest as well."
"Mm...."
Namikaze Minato hesitated for a moment before speaking: "Kushina, I should return to the Pure Land."
"Hm?"
Kushina was startled at his words, turning her face full of confusion, and then asked: "Minato, what did you just say?"
"Kushina, I should return to the Pure Land."
"Why, why, what happened?"
Kushina suddenly didn't understand, but she suddenly covered her mouth, feeling a bit nauseous.
Seeing this, Namikaze Minato hurriedly asked with concern: "Kushina, what's wrong?"
"Nothing, nothing, maybe I haven't eaten well lately, my stomach feels off..."
Kushina suddenly recalled, she's pregnant, living with Minato had nearly made her forget about her pregnancy, having almost regained the feeling of newlywed life, caring for Naruto every day after greeting Minato.
"Then let's eat something light tomorrow, Kushina." Namikaze Minato didn't suspect anything and advised her, then continued: "Kushina, the boundary between the living and the dead is quite clear. Even if the Reanimation Body allows me to live in the Ninja World, the differences from the living will bring increasingly huge pressure....."
"Kushina, you're almost danger-free now, and Naruto has grown well. I....having seen all this, I have no regrets left."
"Minato..."
"Kushina, don't be sad. This is my chance to fulfill my dream. Seeing all this, I'm already very satisfied. Even returning to the Pure Land feels devoid of regrets."
With these words, a white light appeared on Namikaze Minato's body, and he felt his spirit body was about to leave the Reanimation Body.
"Sorry, Minato, I'm so sorry....."
Kushina spoke with deep sadness but couldn't reveal the truth, and could only keep apologizing.
"It's okay, I have to thank you, Kushina. Thank you for taking care of Naruto all by yourself...."
As soon as he finished speaking, Namikaze Minato's spirit body suddenly left the Reanimation Body and uncontrollably flew toward the sky.
"Minato...."
Kushina extended her hand, but before her eyes, there was only a pile of fragments wrapped around the clone of White Zetsu.
Afterward, Kushina sat weakly on the bed, clutching her red hair helplessly.
