After mastering the teaching materials, completing the physical examination, trying on the wedding attire... all the pre-marriage preparations were done, Seiya applied to the Fourth Raikage to go to Turtle Island to see Yugito Nii.
Given his status, such an application was naturally unimpeded.
The Fourth Raikage approved it on the spot without hesitation.
Seiya, holding the approval order, boarded the ship heading to Turtle Island.
Since ancient times, Kumogakure has raised a rare, gigantic turtle.
To call it a creature is no longer quite appropriate.
It is more like a moving island.
Its shell is covered with mountains, forests, and lakes, and the ecosystem is excellent.
Due to its isolation, it is home to countless rare species seldom seen on land.
The giant turtle wanders the sea year-round, its whereabouts uncertain.
Its location is Kumogakure's highest secret.
After all, the island is the training ground for two perfect Jinchuriki.
Seiya, aboard the ship, gazed at the sparkling sea, recalling his past experiences of coming to Turtle Island with his teacher, Yugito.
Back then, he even learned the secret of the perfect Jinchuriki, which is not passed down lightly-
If one wants to master the power of the Tailed Beast, one must find the most important thing in one's heart and adhere to it consistently.
Only with the power of conviction can a mortal body rival a Tailed Beast and overcome the fear and temptation it brings.
Yugito sensei emphasized that it is the same for ordinary Shinobi; only by finding and holding onto their conviction can they avoid being defeated by fear.
Seiya benefited greatly from this, and it was deeply etched in his mind.
He initially became a Shinobi merely out of a natural interest in combat.
Upon graduating from the Shinobi academy, he resolved to become stronger to protect the people around him.
Since then, his resolve has never wavered, remaining consistent.
Now, as the number of people around him grows, he works even harder, diligently practicing the Lightning Release Chakra Mode.
After all, his mother's eyes cannot last much longer. Without "Purification" for protection, he must possess sufficient strength.
However, training must temporarily come to a halt.
In the next few months, there is only one big event: marrying Uchiha Mikoto and going on a honeymoon.
...
"I wonder what my teacher will teach me this time?"
Seiya rested his elbow on the ship's rail, his palm supporting his chin, his eyes full of anticipation as he gazed into the distance.
The dazzling sunlight pierced through the clouds, scattering shimmering gold dust upon the sea.
A refreshing sea breeze whistled by, stirring up waves.
At the edge of the horizon, where the sea met the sky, eagles soared.
A week later, Seiya arrived at Turtle Island.
He was received by the highest authority on Turtle Island, the Chunin Motoi.
Normally, such an important position, especially one overseeing the defenses of Turtle Island, would not be held by a mere Chunin.
However, there are exceptions.
Motoi is Killer B's childhood friend, so their relationship is very solid!
Although his strength is not convincing to the public, Killer B is willing to cooperate with him!
If it were anyone else, who could, or who would dare, give orders to a perfect Eight-Tails Jinchuriki?
After verifying the approval order, Motoi led Seiya, applying various jutsus along the way, passing through one sealing barrier after another, and entering the interior of Turtle Island.
Informed of the purpose of Seiya's visit, Motoi directed him: "Lady Yugito is training in the palace behind the Waterfall of Truth."
"Okay, thank you."
Seiya politely thanked him and headed straight for the Waterfall of Truth.
About half an hour later, he reached a place where the sound of water was rushing.
The Waterfall of Truth is a sacred place that helps Jinchuriki control their Tailed Beasts.
The mountains are majestic, and the water flows rapidly.
At the foot of the mountain, the waterfall's stream gathers into a circular lake, with a patch of emerald, green grass in the center.
By standing on this patch of grass, one can see the darkness within their heart and understand their weaknesses.
To enter the palace behind the waterfall, this patch of grass is the necessary path.
Of course, one can lightly leap over the grass and pass through the water curtain without necessarily facing the darkness in their heart.
However, Seiya's curiosity got the better of him; he really wanted to see what his inner darkness was like.
A few years ago, when he first came, he wanted to do the same. But Yugito sensei was afraid he would doubt himself and didn't allow it.
This time, no one stopped him.
Seiya stopped on the grass, excitedly waiting for the darkness in his heart to appear.
A moment later, a Shinobi slowly walked out from the water curtain.
Except for his completely black eyes, everything else about him was identical to Seiya.
Seiya stared intently and asked, "Are you the darkness in my heart?"
"That's right!"
'Seiya' nodded slightly, grinning: "I am the universally beloved handsomest man in the Shinobi world, the lust-ridden, despicable scoundrel-Seiya!"
"..."
Seiya was slightly stunned. He hadn't expected himself to be so narcissistic.
But maybe it wasn't narcissism; perhaps it was just a fact!
After all, he really hadn't seen anyone handsomer than himself for so many years.
Being lecherous was also within his expectations.
After all, a few years ago, he was often mesmerized by the beauty of Samui-neesan and the others.
However, the description "lust-ridden" was too much!
Moreover, this was a normal male desire, so how could it be despicable?
Thinking this, Seiya partially accepted the darkness in his heart.
Meanwhile, 'Seiya' spoke eloquently: "Since the Shinobi academy, girls' love letters have filled my desk drawer and school bag, but I haven't read a single one."
"I think they're not pretty enough! Instead of wasting time thinking about romance, these girls should focus more on studying and improving themselves."
"My wife must at least be on the level of Yugito sensei, Samui-neesan, or Mikoto-neesan!"
"Well said!" Seiya nodded in agreement, suddenly feeling that he had the potential to become a perfect Jinchuriki.
This kind of darkness was no darkness at all; there was no need to overcome it.
'Seiya,' seeing how relaxed he was, couldn't help but curl his lips in a sneer, and continued: "Mother said that the way to take revenge is not just through killing, which suits me perfectly."
"When I first saw the pretty-looking Kurotsuchi, I thought about imprisoning her in a basement where no one could see her, torturing and playing with her as I pleased, making her cry and beg for mercy!"
"What?!"
Seiya was greatly shocked, swearing that he had never had such a thought, not a single bit! The guy in front of him was completely fabricating and deliberately slandering him!
'Seiya' sneered, saying, "I know you're anxious, but don't rush; listen to me finish quietly."
"When I met Tsunade, one of the Sannin, I thought it would be a pity to kill such a rare beauty with astonishing bust size. Since I couldn't kill her anyway, why not find an opportunity to hold something against her and profane and toy with her! And she would certainly worry about her reputation and dare not speak out, so it wouldn't affect the alliance between the two villages."
"This is truly a perfect revenge plan! I'm so smart! This is how one should treat enemies!"
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
Seiya retorted coldly.
"When I saw Tsunade, I was merely appreciating her beauty; I never had the dark thoughts you are talking about!"
