Naruto: Reborn With Combat Simulation Space-Chapter 282 - 282: Three Years Later

Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, three years had passed.
During this period, while Kazuki didn't encounter many strong opponents, his strength still saw significant improvement.
In the combat arena, he encountered all the Jinchuriki except for the Seven-Tails, which further enhanced his power. Coupled with the fact that ages 12 to 15 are a period of rapid growth for a ninja, and the Ninjutsu he had learned over these three years, along with the rewards he gained from the combat arena, Kazuki's strength saw a remarkable increase.
Currently, he has become a Chakra powerhouse. According to his estimates, he already possesses approximately two thousand units of Chakra. Once the Seven-Tails is integrated, his strength will further improve significantly, reaching the level of Kaguya.
Of course, considering Kaguya's combat skills, he would definitely be even more powerful than her.
His height also grew to just over one meter eighty, making him a graceful young man.
Perhaps because Mikoto prepared all his clothes, and even helped cut his hair, his hairstyle was very similar to Sasuke's future look, with his overall appearance bearing 70 to 80% of a resemblance to Sasuke.
This day, as Kazuki had just woken up, Kushina ran into his house, exclaiming, "Kazuki, something's wrong. Grandma Mito is not doing well, hurry over."
"What?" Kazuki was startled.
Mito was originally supposed to pass away two years ago, but he had been using Yang Release to extend her life.
"Let's go!"
Kazuki grabbed Kushina and, using the Flying Thunder God Technique, arrived near Mito.
At this moment, Tobirama, Hashirama, Nawaki, Tsunade, Hiruzen, and others were already there.
Seeing Kazuki return with Kushina, Mito, lying on the bed, greeted him and motioned for him to come closer.
"Grandma Mito!"
Yang Release Chakra surged from Kazuki's hand. This Yang Release Chakra was nothing to him. As early as when he integrated the Nine-Tails Chakra, he was no longer an ordinary person. He didn't even know how long he could live, but it was certainly over a thousand years. This consumption of Yang Release Chakra would not affect his lifespan.
"No need, child. I have lived long enough." Mito shook her head repeatedly.
She knew that this wouldn't cause any harm to Kazuki, but she had long since not wanted to live in such an old state. However, Kazuki was too filial, making her cling to life like this was simply too tiring. She would rather be reanimated.
Kazuki's hand stiffened, and he pursed his lips, but in the end, he chose to give up.
If he could, he didn't want Mito to die. Edo Tensei was indeed useful, but after being reanimated, one couldn't enjoy life as a human. They had no body temperature, didn't need to breathe, didn't need to drink water, couldn't eat, and couldn't even perform certain physiological functions.
In the eyes of some, Edo Tensei could grant them immortal life, but in Kazuki's view, it was nothing more than living dead. In any case, he himself could not accept such a thing.
Kagami initially remained peacefully in the human world, but upon realizing that he couldn't eat or sleep, was simply a mission machine and that staying in the living world would only make Kazuki and the others uncomfortable, he chose to return to the Pure Land.
Tobirama and Hashirama stayed because they had things to do, but Kagami, staying in the living world, couldn't help Kazuki with anything, nor could he do anything. So, he chose to release the Ninjutsu and die a month after being reanimated.
He knew that Konoha was doing well, Kazuki was doing very well, and would even become the Fourth Hokage, and that Mikoto and Kushina were very filial, plus it seemed Rinka also liked Kazuki, this was all very good.
If it were an ordinary person, being liked by so many excellent girls would certainly not end well. But Kazuki was so outstanding and powerful that it seemed there would be no problems.
Kagami returned to the Pure Land, but Hashirama and Tobirama remained in the human world.
Hashirama was to cooperate with Kazuki in researching a new Sage Mode, while Tobirama was to conduct various researches. In non-war times, Tobirama was far more important than Hashirama.
"Grandma Mito!" Kazuki smiled bitterly, helplessly.
He had known Mito for over ten years, and during these ten years, she had always cared for him like a true grandmother, protecting his growth when he was at his weakest. But now, this elder was about to die.
Mito waved her hand, then looked at Kushina beside her. "Kushina, do you want to become the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki?"
Kushina nodded with a firm expression. "Grandma, I am willing."
Previously, with Mito's help, Kushina had also seen the Nine-Tails inside Mito. Surprisingly, Nine-Tails, which many considered a natural disaster, was actually a big fox with a very good temper.
According to Nine-Tails and Mito, as long as she became the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, and could use Nine-Tails's full power, she would then become one of the top experts in the Ninja World. In the future, if she encountered opponents, she could also help Kazuki.
Of course, because she would become the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, the opponents she would face in the future would also be stronger. Kushina naturally wouldn't refuse this.
They would encounter the Ōtsutsuki sooner or later in the future. By becoming the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, she would also help Kazuki. Although there might be danger, in Kushina's view, it was all worth it.
If she didn't become the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, would she not have to face those strong opponents?
It was better to face reality and gain powerful strength to confront strong enemies.
Kushina had already learned most of Mito's Sealing Jutsu, and she had also mastered most of Tsunade's Taijutsu. Without a doubt, the current Kushina had the strength of an Elite Jonin. Except for a lack of combat experience, she was already very powerful.
