Saiyan In Naruto - Chapter 161

I decided to go home to my family to give them the Asauchi I obtained. My portal opened in my back yard and was greeted with a sneak attack from my children. Rose and Ryu used beams of energy to attack me with a pincer attack.

Sage: (After dodging without looking) Aww, I missed you guys too.

I grabbed them and held them tight to my face. They struggled to get away but they couldn’t break free. I started to kiss them on their cheeks and foreheads.

Ryu: Gross DAD! STOP!! I give, I give!!

Rose: I missed you too, Dad.

After I let them go they gave me a hug. I scooped them up and put them on my shoulders as I walked into the house. I was greeted with a mix of hugs, kisses, bites, kicks and punches from Tsunade and Mei. Hashirama and Tobirama were there as well. Kushina, Minato, Naruto and his family came by to visit when they heard of my return. I beguiled them with my travel stories as I cooked for all of them with food from the Toriko universe. I imbued the food with my Reiatsu into order to get them ready to use the Asauchi.

After the meal I talked to everyone and started to give out the Asauchi. Reiatsu or Spiritual Energy was better understood and used in the Naruto universe so, they could get a better feel for it here. I explained what the Asauchi were and in time, how they can become stronger with the new swords.

Minato: I am greatful for the weapon Sage-kun, but it’s not something I would normally use.

Kushina: Me too.

Sage: (While smiling) I understand that the swords are not within your combat styles but the Asauchi are not normal swords. The longer you have them and imprint your souls into them, they will change into your style. When the sword takes on a different form it becomes a Zanpakuto.

Sage: I mean to transfer Chakra into them. If you want a quick example I will take my Zanpakuto out.

I revealed Shinigami from the pocket dimension I stored her in. The others were surprised to see me with a sword considering I alone can decimate worlds. Normally, people cannot see the Zanpakuto without sufficient Spiritual energy but everyone here who can use Chakra, can. Everyone was in awe as I unsheathed Shinigami. The boys and girls there liked the style of the Tsuka, Tsuba, Habaki, Tsuka ito and Kashira. (Handle, Guard, Blade collar, Cord wrap and Pommel). The milk white blade was shown later.

Kushina: Wow, the blade is so pretty. I didn’t know that the soul imprint of your soul was white, Sage-kun.

Sage: (While laughing) I know, right. I was surprised at first but as the Zanpakuto is released even further, the power and inner style of the wielder is shown.

Tsunade: The blade doesn’t show a reflection. Is it supposed to be like this?

Sage: Like I said, the sword is a reflection of my soul. The only reason mine is white is because of how it was made. Mine is quite different from the normal Asauchi. A normal one wouldn’t be able to handle my energy.

Mei: So the ones we have can still become strong though?

Sage: Of course. Let me show you what yours will be capable of. Claim his life, Shinigami!

My sword changed from the brightest white to the darkest black but it was still reflectionless. The blade extended into an Odachi but it was still a Sakabato.

Kaien: So the blade only extends a bit?

Kushina: No no, Kurama told me that the blade is not so simple to just extend. The power overall rose dramatically. Naruto, check with Sennin mode.

Naruto: Okay mom. (Turned on Sage mode) Wow! The energy on this thing is insane!

Hashirama: He’s right. (Also using Sage mode) The energy the blade is giving off almost feels as if it is alive.

Sage: That’s because it is alive. The blade does not simply extend, it transforms into something suited to your style.

Satsuki: So why is yours a Sakabato?

Sage: I am only guessing but, I believe it’s because my power is so great I have to keep it in check and only when I need it I use my full strength. So the blade is reversed.

Everyone: OOHHHHHHH!!!!

Satsuki: Makes sense.

Sage: Yes you can. For example, if Minato-nii uses his Zanpakuto and releases it, it might become something other than a sword. Since he uses Kunai or short blades, it will most likely change into something similar to that. Depending on the person the Zanpakuto will also have special abilities.

Naruto: No way?! What kind of abilities?

Sage: It varies from person to person. If you prefer power over anything else it will most likely highlight that.

Tobirama: Were you the one who named your blade?

Sage: No, I did not. Thank you for noticing that, because once the blade starts to reflect your soul, meaning it starts to change shape and color, the blade itself will try to call out to you. When the blade tries to call out to you please listen closely for their name because that is the way to make its first release.

Mei: First release? Does that mean it has another release?

Sage: (While blowing a kiss at her) Very astute of you babe. Yes, the Zanpakuto have two releases. The first is called Shikai and the second or last is called Bankai. Bankai is the ultimate form of the Zanpakuto. If the blade gets broken while in Bankai the possibility of it being repaired is slim.

Naruto: So these blades can repair themselves?

Sage: If broken in Shikai or before they are released, then yes, completely. Just have them sheathed, pour some Chakra into them and they will repair themselves. It might take a while though. But in Bankai, I might have to take it to the special swordsmith I got mine made from.

Sage: Remember, if you feel that you are ready for Bankai let me know before attempting it.

Hashirama: Why?

Sage: The blades have lives and wills of their own that is linked to yours. If you die they die. Bankai is a form where you are in unison with your Zanpakuto so in order to learn Bankai you have to face your Zanpakuto. If you are weaker or don’t understand what your Zanpakuto is trying to do then it can kill you.

Tobirama: I will try the blade.

Tsunade: Why, grand uncle?

Tobirama: The blade becomes a part of you, dies with you and if you are not ready it can deny you. The power gained is something that is earned. I believe that having the blade is worth doing.

Everyone looked at each other and then nodded to one another.

Everyone: We will try it too.

Sage: I also know a type of meditation training that you can do to converse with your Zanpakuto. It’s called Jinzen (Sword meditation). By conversing with your blade you will also dive into your inner world. Kushina- nee and Naruto have done similar training because of Kurama so if anything it will be similar when you directly converse with Kurama.

I gave each of them their own Asauchi. Usually it takes many years, according to the Shinigami, to have an Asauchi take the form of its master but in the Naruto universe everyone was already familiar with Chakra since infancy. I witnessed the changing in their Asauchi in the months that I stayed. I told them to be careful in being targeted by other villages for the Zanpakuto. They will learn the hard way that they can’t use them even if they take them from you.
