My New Fanfic: A Reboot Of Ifanfic

Chapter 13 - 10:A magic slumber.Part-2

Inside a room, there are 6 people a boy who seems to be in a critical state and five women who are currently discussing something, three of them get out of the room to apparently get something while the two m.a.t.u.r.e women stay in the room with an awkward aura around them.

Tsunade: "I never wanted to end like this, he chose me and then that happened... I wonder if it would have been different had you been the chosen one"

Tsunade said with a great melancholy both in her eyes and expression making the atmosphere somewhat worse than before.

Uicha: "Ok, let me be honest with you, I don't like you at all but I have to admit you did your best and all you could. You can't blame yourself for what happened all your life, you tried to the best of your abilities and failed... It's not something to be exactly proud of but at least you tried your best, cause even if I don't want to admit it you two loved each other and he was probably happy to have you at his side until the end"

Uicha said with a slight empathetic expression mixed with a bit of dissatisfaction and sincerity. Making a pretty weird expression that makes Tsunade smile wryly at her attempt to be 'friendly'.

Tsunade: "*sigh* I appreciate your 'attempts' to be nice to me, but you don't have to... Thanks anyway"

Tsunade who was having a pretty hard time thanking Uicha and dealing with her past.

There was an awkward silence for a long time while they waited for the other three girls to come back, things only got worst as none of the two knew how to break out of the moment until Uicha said.

Uicha: "Why are you even helping this kid?"

Since she has been curious for a bit, Shizune had her own reasons to want to help the boy and even though she didn't fully agree with it, Uicha respected the will of her niece. She also believes the other two girls she was told about from which already knew one of them, are just doing this on a whim of youth and not really understanding the seriousness of what they got themselves into. But in her mind, there's no real reason for Tsunade to be helping the boy.

Tsunade: "..."

As Uicha had expected no answer was given only making her wonder even more about what her motivation could probably be.

Uicha: "I see, no need to answer me. I was just curious as to why the great Sannin and world's best medical ninja had interest in a homeless boy that randomly appeared in our front gates... It's not an uncommon thing to have refugees going and coming every in a time like this so, why specifically care about that child?"

Uicha seeing how Tsunade is responding to her question thought that it would be better if to an extent exposed her reasons to inquire about Tsunade's motivations since Uicha herself was curious and seriously wants to know what is so special about the boy.

Tsunade for the first time started seriously thinking about her own reasons to give Ingenuus a special treatment when he wasn't even really a native of her village... After thinking for a bit she realized that her reasons were much simpler than she herself ever expected to be.

Tsunade: "Well, that's pretty simple. I took a liking to Ingenuus, this boy is a pretty special one you see besides who would get their hearts melted by this sheer cuteness"

Uicha opened her eyes wider than before to an extent because she was not expecting to get an answer of this type at all. A ninja of the top-ranking was taking care of a random boy who just appeared out of nowhere during a pre-war time while his origins are completely unknown, just because she liked the boy... Just how absurd was that?! Isn't just the same as putting your how village in danger because you think a little boy with unknown and potentially dangerous origins is cute... Uicha started worrying about the future of her village slightly while her previous curiosity about this boy only increased by a large margin, now she had to meet this kid herself and those thoughts motivated her to act in his benefit at least for now. Then she muttered to herself.

Uicha: "After all there's nothing more expensive than something for free"

After muttering so a dangerous and slightly 'evil' smile appeared in her face while Tsunade who didn't hear what she muttered was looking at her new expression with a wry smile while questioning what she could be thinking about to have such a smile on.

Then having nothing else to they started some small talk about their expectations on the war and it consumed enough time for the girl to be back with some weird ingredients and a small cauldron that was being carried by Kushina wish made Uicha close and open her eyes multiple times because of the surprise since Uicha when she was Kushina's age would never have been able to carry the small but heavy cauldron herself, this object was weighing something close to 145Kg, so something like that most certainly more than twice the weight of the slightly slender girl. Even Mikoto and Shizune have wry smiles on their faces as they watch her carry it with some ease.

Mikoto: 'I'm used to... Yeah, I have to be used to it... Yes I'm totally used to it... Why am I not used to the by now'

Mikoto thought as her internal tears fell with the abnormal brute force displayed by her best friend.

Shizune: 'Is it even possible for someone to do this?... Even with chakra isn't her strength off too scary?'

Shizune thought to herself as she imaged what would to her if she ever had to fight against Kushina in an all-out fight and that thought sent shivers down her spine.

Uicha: 'What kind of little monster is this girl supposed to be?'

Uicha could simply think of this as a common trait between two monster girls since Tsunade was even worst than Kushina in regard to brute force.

Tsunade who is the only completely unaffected by the sight is concentrated in Ingenuus condition more than how abnormally strong the red-haired girl is.

Kushina: "This thing is way heavier than it looks but I guess I can carry like two or maybe three of them at full strength, I think-.

While carrying the cauldron Kushina slipped and was now falling with it in her hands and all of the three girls focused in her opened their eyes wide not even having time to process the absurd she just said they went in to catch her, Uicha being much faster than the other two caught Kushina in no time but the red-haired girl was so surprised by what just happened she let go of the cauldron. Hopefully, it was caught by Tsunade before it hit the floor making Uicha and Kushina sigh in relief since they are now on the second floor and there was the possibility the cauldron would fall through and land on someone's head rather than breaking.

Tsunade: "Seriously, what kind of posture is this? A lady should have proper balance and not walk like a drunk man slipped in thin air, you really are a lost cause of a tomboyish girl"

As Tsunade said so she hit Kushina's head with her fist while her other hand was holding the cauldron as if it was nothing but a light pillow.

Seeing this happen the other girls couldn't help but think 'Look who's talking? Your exactly the same as her!' but none of them had the courage to vice it out knowing how Tsunade's temper would sometimes get easily bad until a red-haired girl decided to speak.

Kushina: "You're way worse than me hitting people randomly like that! You have no right to call me tomboyish"

Kushina was complaining while rubbing her forehead that had just been hit.

Uicha put Kushina down and distanced herself while Mikoto and Shizune followed her example and also distanced themselves a bit. Kushina who was concentrated in her own hurting forehead didn't notice all the veins coming out of Tsunade's forehead and well the young woman was 'disciplined' by Tsunade before they all focused on Ingenuus.

Tsunade: "So, how does that ritual thing work?"

Not wasting time Tsunade immediately asked what kind of procedure it was, she waited until everyone was present so that the explanation would only have to be done once.

Uicha: "Our clan studies the connection between chakra and the spiritual world, the world of souls. Chakra is a mystic energy that has power only over the physical but over the spiritual as well, being possible to use in other to manipulate the spiritual energies just like any other element. Just like I said before this boy is in the brink of death and I seriously don't know how long he will last so we should hurry, his soul is in a very weak state because of a parasite that is feeding off his soul, so the ritual consists of using our chakra to heal his broken soul as we eliminate the parasite feeding off his soul at the same time. Since the damage done is immense I doubt it would be possible to do so it not for the two ladies with abnormal quantities of chakra present, spiritual rituals use too much chakra and are usually performed by at least half the clan's man to have any chance of success, not only that but the ritual might suck up too much from us and we will die if that happens, are you willing to take that risk?"

Uicha said with a very serious expression and the girls all had understood that this is something very dangerous and difficult to perform just by the simple explanation given to them but none of them seem to back down and simply nodded their heads, this made Uicha once more look at the unconscious kid one more with a great amount of curiosity than an even bigger smile than the one before appeared in her face while she licked her lips and said.

Uicha: "Now, all you have to do is position yourself in the ritual circle I will draw, also undress the boy and yourself. Clothes only hinder and make this kind of process harder for everyone, after I'll tell all of you you're exact position and function"

The moment Uicha said so they were looking at her as if waiting to hear that she was just joking but it was not the case at all as Uicha herself undressed until she was only in u.n.d.e.r.w.e.a.r. Seeing her do so the girls followed and did the same to Ingenuus and Uicha's eyes widened completely seeing the kid in u.n.d.e.r.w.e.a.r it was already noticeable and Uicha could help but wonder if he really is a child for a bit before throwing such thoughts away.

Uicha first got the cauldron and put the ingredients inside and then used a technique.

Uicha: "{Spiritual release- blue fire of eternity technique}"

Blue fire came out of Uicha's hands and started burning everything in the cauldron in a weird way since all the ingredients started mixing until it became a red liquid that is not hot at all.

Not long after Uicha was done drawing the ritual circle using the red liquid on the floor where Ingenuus body was now laying and told the girls their positions Tsunade stayed close to Ingenuus right arm, Kushina beside his left arm, Mikoto to his right leg, Shizune to his left leg left and Uicha herself was now sitting on Ingenuus abdomen.

Uicha herself wasn't fully sure of what the result would be in the end, considering Kushina is a jinchuuriki and the chakra of the beast inside her might interfere with the ritual, but that's only a possibility. Right now they don't have enough time to properly study all possibilities so it's all or nothing in this one try.

Uicha: "{Spiritual release- soul healing ritual}"

At that moment all the girls started shining blue as their chakra came out and was directed to Ingenuus body at a very slow pace while the girls were all concentrated and patiently waiting.

After a long time, the ritual started getting intense and the girls were falling out Mikoto was the first one to fall out that was followed by Shizune leaving only three of them, luckily Uicha is experienced in this and canceled their side of the ritual circle to make sure they don't die of chakra overuse, that could have happened if they tried too hard to send their chakra in or if Uicha simply wasn't careful enough to still cancel their sides. It's very hard to do anything and not affect the ritual in her current position because, she's acting as the main catalyst and directing all the chakra including hers into Ingenuus, which is a process that not many can handle just from how painful and tiring it is, not even mentioning the level of concentration necessary to do so. During the process, she does not only feel pain in her muscles through which very big quantities of chakra are passing, the process is extremely tiring, making the ones acting as catalyst fall asleep for at least week after completing the process, depending on how hard it was, and the level of concentration needed to perform so is quite a big margin beyond what most rank S techniques require.

After another long while, Kushina was showing signs of baking down but still lasted until Tsunade herself started showing signs of going down. Uicha as the catalyst depends more on the chakra of the participants than her own to define how long she lasts, so it's not like she has nearly as much chakra as any of the other two, it's just she's using their chakra to last longer. Before Tsunade who was just about to find out fainted like the two first, she and Uicha saw Kushina's chakra become red more violent and active and that started disturbing the stability of the ritual.

Uicha: "arrrhgh... If this goes on I won't last and this will be a failure!"

Uicha said with a lot of effort since it's not easy to speak with all the pressure currently in her body, soon blood started coming out her mouth.

Tsunade seeing this decided to activate her technique.

Tsunade: "{Strength of a Hundred Seal!}"

Four Black and curvy lines appeared in Tsunade's forehead head surrounding the purple rhombus-like marking she has, and great amounts of chakra started coming out of her somewhat balancing the situation, and allowing Uicha to slightly adapt to the new speed and intensity of chakra that she's receiving and passing on to Ingenuus, but even after that she was feeling that she could no longer keep up with the amount of chakra received at once so she decided to.

Uicha: "{Spiritual release-Secret arts of the Katō clan: hundred soul strength seal}"

The moment Uicha activated this ninja technique a mark identical to Tsunade's Strength of a Hundred Seal appeared in her forehead, but a blue one instead of a purple one with red lines around it. Just like that the calm ritual became many levels faster, not long after Tsunade fainted and the only lasting was Kushina or more accurately the only one lasting is Kurama the chakra nine-tailed beast sealed inside Kushina, but things were accelerated to a level where Uicha herself couldn't stop the ritual until Ingenuus was fully healed but no matter how much went in, his condition didn't seem to improve in the slightest, actually he's still slowly worsening... Upon noticing so Uicha wanted to see why by looking at Ingenuus soul even though she's already under an immensely great strain from all done until now. But the moment she got close enough something unexpected happened.

Ingenuus: "{Arcane arts- support spell: ultra haste}, sorry little girl but I'm in need of that energy currently, I'll make sure to properly retribute you for all you've done for this boy"

Ingenuus with his eyes opened and shining a bright orange tone touched Uicha's forehead where the blue mark is and Uicha's eyes widened as he casted some kind of spell, then he said some words with a somewhat gentle voice and expression and once again fell into a deep slumber with his currently bright orange eyes returning to their black state.

Then Uicha tried to process what's going on, but before she could all the chakra hastened and passed through her in an instant, having such a huge amount of chakra pass through her in an instant Uicha fainted as well as Kushina who seemed to be in a much worse state.

(AN:This happened before what is currently happening in the outside world)

Inside the dark zone in the deepest parts of Ingenuus soul, there's a shiny girl missing half of her left arm. She's floating at a very fast pace and soon found an area that is completely covered by the dark veil of the black substance, she's already gotten used to dealing with after meeting them a couple of times, so seeing this wall of black substance.

Rikune: "Looks like I'll have to open up a way.... This thing is such a hindrance, I really have to find out what's going on, before it's too late. Battle mode command: photon canon activate. Battle command: pho-... Cancel command!"

Rikune said determined to not only help and save Ingenuus but to also discover the origin of all this situation. At the moment Rikune was about to shot open a way for her to pass a path opened on its own... Rikune wasn't an idiot who would believe this is luck or something to be relieved about, it's true that she will survive for longer by not having to waste her energy like this, but it also meant whatever is on the other side wants her to go inside and there's no way that's something good, Rikune would have to be extremely careful since this is obviously a trap.

Rikune: "it would make me feel safer if I had to blast my way in.... Anyway, this is not a moment to hesitate, I have to hurry and find that idiot and stop her..."

Rikune muttered to herself before heading inside with a very cautious maneuver and very high alert with her canon ready to shot at any target that appears.

After going inside like expected her to exist immediately closed but to her surprise there was a light in the middle of all the darkness a very faint light with a silvery shine being held by a girl that kept repeating the saying something that Rikune couldn't hear because of the distance between them.

Rikune slowly got closer always being wary of her surroundings and the moment she got close enough she witnessed something that she never expected to see.

Girl: "I'M SORRY, SO SORRY. I NEVER MEANT FOR THIS TO HAPPEN!! I'M SORRY, SO SORRY. I NEVER MEANT FOR THIS TO HAPPEN!!"

This girl who has a crimson red and long hair looked completely insane as she kept repeating those words none-stop with her currently bad looking condition that only made it worse, those who look at this would believe that she's some kind of a mental ward patient that escaped, and has been in the streets for at least weeks living of bugs and rats or something similar. Her state is very sad and would many feel empathy towards the crazy girl and this crazy girl is none other than our beloved/hated(depends on perspective) Elma.

Rikune: "How did you even end up like this?"

Rikune got distracted for an instant by the unusual scene in front of her and before she could process and regain her defensive posture she was immediately grabbed by disgusting black substance tentacles that weren't there before.

Rikune: "WAIT WHA-"

Before Rikune could say anymore her mouth was covered by a tentacle and she was pulled in and at the same time the black substance kept slowly getting closer to Elma bit by bit.
