I would like to announce that I released a new fiction titled My Life In The Multiverse, check it out and tell me what you think.
----------------------------------------
Tsunade didn't know how many times she was going to be surprised today before she gets used to it as every time she thinks that she understood the limitations and capabilities of the boy before her. He retrieves something new to shock her with. And now, staring at his eyes that transformed into the unique pattern of the rare Mangekyo Sharingan, she found herself speechless…
But this experienced Sannin soon calmed herself down and asked the boy in front of her who kept staring at her silently "Does Fugaku and Minato know that you awakened the Mangekyo Sharingan?"
Bakorio expected this question and he simply shook her head to answer her and said "You are the only person I revealed this secret to, and I hope it stays this way…"
Tsunade really didn't know what to say, especially since in this timeline, Fugaku wasn't forced to reveal his Mangekyo Sharingan, and Shisui also wasn't forced to reveal his so this was her first time hearing about someone possessing them, and Itachi's awakening was kept as top secret…
"Why are you worried about suddenly disappearing if you have these eyes?" Tsunade was perplexed at what could worry this kid in front of her who appeared to be so talented but she couldn't say anything when she heard his answer
"Madara Uchiha also had these eyes in addition to the nine tails under his command, yet your grandfather Hashirama still beat him in the end. So having these eyes means nothing with the lurking powers in this world…"
Tsunade's eyes suddenly widened but she ended up agreeing. After all, she suffered plenty of losses in her life, including the one that gained her the title of a Sannin so she wasn't arrogant at all about her power and knew how to keep her ego in check, and she was glad to hear that such a successful kid was able to do it too…
Then she suddenly remembered Bakorio's previous words and couldn't help but ask him in anticipation "So, what did you mean by saying that your eyes can help me find closure?"
Bakorio grew thoughtful a little before he started unleashing a little bit of his aura of death! "These grant me the power to be connected to the realm of the dead…"
Seeing the ominous aura of death and hearing what he said, Tsunade's heart suddenly started beating rapidly as she said "You mean…"
Bakorio nodded at her and said "Yes, I can help you connect to your loved ones and talk with them, but that's the limit of my current ability and you will have to be quick"
Tsunade felt like her heart was about to leap out from her chest, so she held her hand to her chest and said nervously almost in a begging tone "Please help me!"
Tsunade lost everyone dear to her and she always wished she could see them again, her grandfather died for some reason not long after his fight with Madara when she was still a little child, her uncle died soon after him in an ambush from Kumo, her grandmother died after the nine tails was extracted from her and the rest of her family including her little brother Nawaki died in either the second or the third ninja wars until her whole clan was gone… leaving her all alone living a tragic life, a life that only got worse when she lost her lover too…
The genuine version of this novel can be found on another site. Support the author by reading it there.
Seeing the state of this legendary character, Bakorio couldn't help but pity her as he said "land me your two hands, and I want you to think of the people you want to meet as hard as you can"
Tsunade quickly held his tiny hands before she closed her eyes and started thinking about the two people she regretted losing the most, her lover Dan and her brother Nawaki…
Meanwhile, as Tsunade was focusing on her loved ones, Bakorio on the other hand was focusing all of his power to find these two using Yomi no Kuni, and before long, he located them thanks to the help of Tsunade's overwhelming emotions that acted as a beacon to connect to them through his power!
This was something he gained after the level of his Yomi no Kuni raised through its continuous use during the war, and thankfully it wasn't as taxing as using the chains of death, after all instead of dragging something from that realm, he was simply meeting the dead souls halfway right now…
After confirming that he located the right souls, Bakorio suddenly opened his eyes and said to Tsunade "Look into my eyes"
Tsunade noticed that his left eye was slightly bloodshot and she understood that it might start bleeding at any moment, but she didn't say anything as she looked at his eyes and found herself in a dark space and in front of her were two people looking around curiously… They were Dan and Nawaki, and she couldn't help but start sobbing uncontrollably as she rushed at them….
------
Meanwhile, on the hall, Minato and Kushina suddenly raised their heads and looked in the direction of the room where Tsunade and Bakorio were having their talk and they couldn't help but look at each other in worry and think 'What a terrible and ominous aura, is this the doing of Bakorio-kun?'
This was the effect of the aura of death Bakorio summoned and was currently revolving around him and Tsunade as it connected them to a space between life and death…
Meanwhile, the oblivious Naruto and Shizune were happily talking to Minato and Kushina who were acting as if everything was fine…
This lasted for 5 minutes, and after that, they were approached by Bakorio and Tsunade whose eyes appeared to be red for some reason as if she was… crying. Yet Minato, Kushina, and Shizune could feel something different about her smile which she was using while talking to Bakorio... It seemed much more genuine…
-------
Bakorio thought long and hard about if he should expose Minato and Kushina's revival, but in the end, he opted for only telling Fugaku and Shikaku about it and left the four of them the choice if they want to tell someone else about it, like Kakashi or Jiraiya for example…
This news shocked those two to their bones, and they couldn't believe that Minato was actually standing in front of them until he showed them his flying thunder god Jutsu removing any doubts they might have had left, and they ended up staring at the kid who achieved all of this in wonder…
But then Fugaku suddenly had a realization and asked "Bakorio, is this why you requested for the two pairs of Sharingan?"
Bakorio simply shrugged at him as if saying it was obvious so Minato decided to explain instead and started recounting all the pain Bakorio had to go through in order to help them recover which left them speechless. Meanwhile, Shikaku felt slightly embarrassed at doubting Bakorio while Fugaku couldn't feel happier at seeing his old and reliable friend back!
After all, when Fugaku found out that he wasn't going to have a chance to become Hokage, he used all of his power and the Uchiha's power to support Minato to become a Hokage so their relationship was very good…
But Bakorio found himself stuck with another issue. Because Minato and Kushina's identity was supposed to be hidden. They ended up living with Bakorio in the Uchiha compound, and he was anything but happy about it.
After all, during the past few days, he even dealt with that side character Sora and absorbed the nine tails chakra inside of him before he went to Asuma and convinced him to take care of his 'old friend's kid'.
But he got rid of one and got two instead… 'Well at least I won't need to worry about taking care of Naruto all the time…' And with this optimistic thought, Bakorio started planning the release of Kurama from his seal with the help of Minato and Kushina …
