Konoha.

After a few attempts at space-jumping, Naruto finally returned to the skies over Konoha. The commotion was so loud that it almost attracted the Anbu. Fortunately, Naruto quickly slipped away and took a quick shower when he got home.

As he stood in the living room, drying his hair, he heard a noise from the window, with the glaring white sunlight piercing through.

Yugao knocked on the floor-to-ceiling window of the balcony in the living room. With a clatter, she opened it.

This was her first time entering Naruto's home. Previously, she had always remained outside or stood on the big tree nearby.

"Did Tsunade-sama call for me?" The whirring of the hairdryer stopped and he turned his head to ask.

"No." Yugao replied, "Tsunade-sama asked you to get ready. Kumogakure is holding the Five Kage Summit. Kakashi is away on a mission and doesn’t have time, so you’ll accompany Tsunade-sama."

"Oh, the Five Kage Summit." Naruto subconsciously felt a little guilty. He knew that Raikage probably held the Five Kage Summit due to the incident where he sealed away Nibi.

However, at the time, he hadn’t used his real identity, and instead disguised himself as Sasuke. So even if they wanted to issue a warrant, it would be for Uchiha Sasuke, which had nothing to do with him, Uzumaki Naruto.

Once he figured that out, a relaxed smile appeared on his face.

"I see. What about the other mission? Did Tsunade-sama mention anything else?"

"No. But if you have any questions, you can go directly to the Hokage Tower to find Tsunade-sama." After saying this, Yugao turned around and was about to leave, but after a few steps, she came back.

"You’ve been away for a long time, and some things happened in the village. Would you like me to fill you in?" She asked coolly, her face not hidden behind the usual Anbu mask.

"Yes." Naruto put down the hair dryer, "Please take a seat. It's quiet here. It's peaceful here, and there aren’t many people around, so your identity won’t be compromised."

"Okay." Yugao sat on the couch.

Naruto turned and brought a glass of water from the kitchen, placing it in front of her, while he held one in his hand. He slowly fell back and sank into the couch in a practiced manner.

"What’s been going on in the village while I was away?"

"A lot of things happened. After you left, Sunagakure sent some envoys here." Yugao then recounted everything that had occurred.

Hearing this, Naruto was a bit speechless, and thought to himself, ‘Temari was actually more loyal than I had imagined. She was actually able to do this and change the attitude of the Sunagakure’s higher-ups.’

This time, Naruto felt somewhat benefited from the gesture of reciprocation, and a smile appeared on his face.

As for the envoy from the Land of Birds, that left him slightly puzzled, ‘Shouldn’t Toki hate me? After all, I had slapped her and stripped her of her dignity as a princess.’

‘When I left, I clearly remember her eyes were red and she looked like she was going to tear me apart. So why the change of heart now? Women are indeed fickle, best to stay cautious.’

"Toki’s matters have nothing to do with me." He said defensively.

"Why are you telling me that?" Yugao looked at him with confusion. "I’m just delivering the information. Anyway, that's all."

Yugao donned her Anbu mask again and left, leaving the living room empty once more. Kurama was nowhere to be found, probably off wandering somewhere.

Naruto reclined on the couch, squinting his eyes and thinking for a while.

‘The matter of the mask could be set aside for now. I didn't learn the Senjutsu of Mount Myoboku. I had caught Nibi’s Jinchuriki, and now I have made up for the shortcomings of Flying Thunder God Technique and Wind Release.’

‘Wind Release, Lava Release, and a bit of Lightning Release. Jashin’s Hymn, Kurosuki Raiga's Funeral, plus that 100% rule-based technique for fishing, and Impure World Reincarnation.’

‘In the Biju Chakra Cloak, my mind was affected, but I could still release a few Bijudama. There’s invisible Max-level Flying Thunder God Technique, and also two Sealing Techniques issued by the system.’n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

‘The effect of the Biju Chakra Cloak on me was probably stronger than adrenaline, and it was difficult to stay awake for a long time.’

‘As for the strangeness of the power brought by the mask and the system, I didn’t have time to continue to dig deeper for the time being.’

The system is indeed a bit weird and seems to have a certain bias, but Naruto believed that it is definitely beneficial to him and not harmful.

After thinking carefully for a moment, he decided to start his future training with the Sealing Technique. He would temporarily put aside his exploration of the system and consult with Tsunade about studying a few Sealing Techniques.

‘It wasn’t unusual for an Uzumaki Clan’s member to be proficient in Sealing Techniques, and I could use the excuse of wanting to restore the glory of the Uzumaki Clan as a cover.’

‘Once I had gathered enough information, I will go to the Land of Whirlpool to take a look. I will see the secrets sealed there and what is hidden in the gap behind the stone door.’

‘As for the matter of the mask and Jashin, I can ask Jiraiya. With his vast knowledge, he might have some relevant information.’

After sorting his thoughts, Naruto allowed his consciousness to sink inward.

Since removing Kurama from his body, he hadn’t done this in a while. When he opened his eyes, the familiar prison had completely disappeared, leaving only a pitch-black space.

When Kurama was still inside him, the seal space had been a prison created by Minato. But after Kurama was removed, due to the system’s control, the seal space had transformed into an independent third dimension.

It was somewhat akin to Obito’s Kamui, both of which are third dimensions that do not exist in this world. However, the seal space could not accommodate Naruto himself, nor could it hold living beings.

In simple terms, it was a warehouse.

The Biju’s Jinchuriki, however, seemed to have special circumstances. At least, Naruto could sense Yugito's life force was still present in the seal space.

After removing Kurama, his sensory abilities had improved.

Of course, this was limited to the sealing space, where Naruto could even count how many spare chopsticks he had stored.

After opening his eyes, Naruto saw Yugito was bound to a cross, and upon hearing the noise, she raised her head abruptly, seeing a completely unfamiliar face.

"Who are you?" she asked.

"Me?" Naruto was a little confused and touched his face, thinking that he was not wearing a mask.

But he soon realized that he used Sasuke's face in Kumogakure, and now his appearance... He quickly grabbed a mirror from among the clutter.

"I can't see your face clearly." She frowned and said, "Who are you really? Uchiha Sasuke?"

"Not really." Naruto looked at himself in the mirror and his eyelids twitched.

In the mirror, his originally clear face was now obscured by a layer of gray mist. While his vision was unaffected, from Yugito’s perspective, Naruto's face appeared blurred, like it was pixelated.

‘What the hell is the system doing? I didn't expect there was such a function? I’m not something that couldn’t be seen, you know!’

After thinking it over for a few seconds, Naruto gave up on the idea of a straightforward negotiation.

"Cough!" He coughed and changed his tone, "It doesn't matter who I am. This is a separate dimension. All you need to know is that I can come and go freely."

"Separate dimension? What's that?" Yugito frowned, with a look of distrust on their faces. "And what’s your relationship with Uchiha Sasuke?"

"I am his father." Naruto responded decisively, with the mentality of ‘If you don't take advantage of an opportunity, you are a bastard’.
