[Hyuga Hinata: That's great, Karin.]
[Yamanaka Ino: Itsuki is so warm, I love him!]
[Tenten: He has strength, talent, brains, and consideration for others. Forget the younger generation—there are barely a handful of shinobi like Itsuki in the entire ninja world.]
[Haruno Sakura: When you look at it that way… he really is thoughtful.]
[Mitarashi Anko: That's my little brother Itsuki, alright!]
The harem chat group erupted with comments. All the kunoichi were touched by Itsuki's behavior.
Even though he had simply transferred some chakra to Kana, this was only their second meeting.
The fact that he remembered such a small detail for her was more than just kindness—it was compassion that reached deeper.
For a shinobi, scars were nothing; as long as they lived, there were endless possibilities ahead.
But for a woman—and a mother—those scars were lifelong wounds, physical and emotional.
Kana's tears eventually slowed, though her face still glowed with relief and joy.
"I'm sorry, Lord Itsuki. I must have made you laugh at me." She wiped at her eyes, embarrassed. "But… what was that important matter you mentioned earlier? Is there something I can help you with?"
Though the mother of a twelve-year-old child, Kana still looked as though she were in her twenties—thanks to her Uzumaki vitality.
Her pitiful expression just moments ago had nearly dazed Itsuki.
He steadied himself with a few deep breaths before speaking.
"Aunt Kana, I stopped by to see you while away on a mission. I realized I didn't leave much money with you last time, and you'd just moved in, so you must have needed to buy a lot. You should have spent most of it by now. I brought you more."
He handed over a sealing scroll with five million ryō—funds he had received from the Third Hokage.
"Use this freely. It should last you a long while. Later, I'll buy this yard outright. Even if I bring you to Konoha someday, this place can remain as an asset outside the village."
"Lord Itsuki…" Kana accepted the scroll with trembling hands, wanting to refuse, but Itsuki gently pushed it back into her grasp.
"Don't worry. In Konoha, I have no concerns about food or money. Missions more than cover my expenses. Since you can't show yourselves openly yet and have no source of income, my money is your money."
Before Kana could respond, Itsuki continued, "Also, I came here today because I want to learn sealing and barrier techniques from you."
The memory of his battle with Root lingered.
If he had known barrier ninjutsu at the time, he wouldn't have had to wait for Anko to bring reinforcements.
Though he hadn't lost that fight, it was still a tactical shortcoming.
"Sealing techniques?" Kana blinked. "If Lord Itsuki requires it, I'll do everything I can. But my homeland was destroyed when I was young, my clan scattered. Only fragments of our heritage remain with me, and I'm not especially proficient."
"That's fine. Teach me what you can." Itsuki nodded. "No one close to me knows sealing or barriers. If I meet an enemy who does, I'll be at a disadvantage. Even just knowing the basics is better than ignorance."
"In that case, there's no problem." Kana smiled faintly, relieved. "I can certainly guide you in the fundamentals."
She began teaching him, starting with basic principles before moving into more complex seals.
She even unrolled several clan scrolls and placed them in his hands.
Itsuki's learning ability was extraordinary.
Within half a day, he had already grasped the theory and could perform several basic barrier techniques.
Meanwhile, Karin was focused on mastering her Adamantine Sealing Chains, growing more precise with every attempt.
Itsuki watched her progress between lessons, until a sudden thought struck him.
"Aunt Kana," Itsuki asked, "what are the conditions for using the Adamantine Sealing Chains? Is it truly restricted only to the Uzumaki clan?"
Kana paused. "Yes… this is a secret technique unique to the Uzumaki. Without our bloodline, it shouldn't be possible—no matter how great the talent."
"Has anyone ever tried?" Itsuki muttered. He lacked Senju or Uchiha blood, yet he had awakened both Wood Release and the Sharingan.
The Fabrication System had approved them, despite their supposed bloodline restrictions.
Logically, that shouldn't have been possible. Yet it was.
His theory was simple: all chakra ultimately originated from the God Tree, and all jutsu were created by predecessors shaping chakra.
Bloodline inheritance only made it easier—not impossible—for certain individuals to manifest specific powers.
If one found the correct method, even a civilian could theoretically unlock bloodline-limit abilities. Perhaps this was the truth Orochimaru had always pursued.
And if that was true… then awakening sealing techniques like the Adamantine Sealing Chains without Uzumaki heritage was possible.
"Lord Itsuki, if you truly wish, I can explain the method. You may try… but don't expect too much," Kana cautioned. She feared failure might wound his confidence.
"It's fine. I won't be disappointed. I just want to try." Itsuki smiled reassuringly.
With the foundation he'd built from her lessons, Itsuki quickly understood her explanation of the technique's principle.
He concentrated his chakra, attempting the conversion.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Golden chains burst forth from behind him—on his very first attempt.
Not only were they longer and thicker than Karin's, but they gleamed with a brighter light and moved with perfect fluidity under his control.
Compared side by side, Karin's chains seemed crude in comparison, while Itsuki's radiated authenticity.
"This… this is…" Kana stood frozen, her mind blank.
Could it be possible? Was Lord Itsuki also of Uzumaki blood?
Karin, hearing the noise, turned her head.
But unlike her mother, she wasn't shocked. She had already seen glimpses of this in the future videos.
Seeing Itsuki so effortlessly wield the Adamantine Sealing Chains, even more gracefully than her, Karin's eyes sparkled like stars.
"Itsuki! You're so handsome!" she squealed, clutching her chest and gazing at him with total adoration.
