"Holy crap! The power is that great?!"
Kaien was completely stunned by the terrifying destructive power of Buddha's Wrath Reincarnation. He didn't hesitate and immediately turned to run.
But the speed at which the ground collapsed far exceeded his own.
In the blink of an eye, Kaien was swallowed by the collapsing surface and buried underground.
Ironically, it was precisely because of this that he narrowly avoided being directly engulfed by the aftershocks of the explosion.
"It's over… am I really going to die here?"
Kaien felt his body falling endlessly, despair flooding his heart.
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for completing the mission to rescue Hinata. Reward: 1000 passion points.]
After an unknown period of falling, the system's voice rang out in his mind.
"Draw! Draw! Draw!"
As his consciousness began to blur, Kaien shouted impatiently in his heart.
This was his last hope.
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for drawing a consumable item — Dragon Ball World Instant Transmission!]
[By sensing someone's ki, you can instantly arrive at their location without traversing any path. You can also bring others, but you cannot go to a place where no one is present.]
Sense ki?
How am I supposed to sense ki?!
I've never learned Goku's ki-sensing ability!
The moment Kaien read the usage description, the hope he had just regained shattered again.
"Am I really going to die here after all…?"
Kaien closed his eyes in despair.
One figure after another surfaced in his mind.
Kushina, Yoshino, Temari, Sakura, Ino…
So many people—yet he hadn't "eaten" even a single one.
"Sigh…"
Kaien let out a long breath.
"Mother… what kind of expression would you have if you knew I couldn't come back?"
At the moment he thought of Kushina, Kaien suddenly felt something.
A faint but clear presence.
Ki?
His eyes snapped open.
In the next instant, his figure vanished from where he was.
Kushina was staring at Naruto, who stood silently with his head lowered. Just as she was about to turn and leave—
A brilliant flash of light suddenly erupted inside the Hokage's office.
"Who's there?!" Naruto shouted immediately, alarmed.
He hadn't sensed anyone approaching, yet someone had appeared out of nowhere.
Everyone in the room tensed and looked around.
"Thud!"
A figure suddenly dropped straight onto the Hokage's desk.
All eyes turned toward it—
And then widened in shock and joy.
"Kaien?!"
"K-Kaien?! You're back?! You're alright?!"
Kushina froze for a moment before throwing herself at Kaien, hugging him tightly as tears streamed down her face.
"Kaien… you're really back…"
"Sister Sakura…"
Sakura, standing nearby, instinctively stepped forward as if to hug him as well—but she forcibly stopped herself.
At that moment, Ino, who had been listening outside the door, rushed in. When she saw Kaien safe and sound, she immediately threw herself at him.
"Waaah! Kaien! You scared me to death! Boo hoo~~"
Ino cried uncontrollably, clinging tightly to him.
The others looked at her in confusion, clearly not understanding when Ino's relationship with Kaien had become this close.
Only Sai remained expressionless, as calm as ever.
Meanwhile, Kaien himself was completely dazed.
One moment he'd been falling beneath the Moon.
The next—he was in the Hokage's office.
"K-Kaien… how did you come back?" Naruto asked, still stunned.
"I… I don't know," Kaien replied hesitantly. "There was a flash of light, and suddenly I was here."
He vaguely guessed that it was due to Instant Transmission, but there was no way he could explain that, so he pretended to know nothing.
"Maybe the teleportation array was destroyed, and Kaien was sent back automatically," Shino speculated.
"Yeah, that sounds possible," Kiba nodded in agreement.
"Phew… it's good that he's alright," Kakashi said with relief.
"Yes… it's good that he's alright," Kushina echoed, wiping away her tears.
"Since Kaien and Hinata are both safe, everything is settled," Kakashi continued with a gentle smile. "The situation has calmed down."
Naruto nodded, "Alright. Everyone, let's disperse for today and return to your duties."
Hinata had been rescued.
Kaien was safe.
Ōtsutsuki Toneri was most likely killed by that explosion.
This mission could be considered a perfect conclusion.
"Naruto, what about your wedding with Hinata?" Shikamaru asked, frowning slightly.
Naruto glanced at Hinata and Kushina, then said, "We'll hold it as scheduled. There's no reason to delay it."
If something had truly happened to Kaien, the wedding would've been postponed.
But now—there was no need.
"Alright, I'll proceed with the arrangements," Shikamaru nodded.
After that, Kaien left with Kushina. The rest of the matters could be handled by Shikamaru, Kakashi, and the others.
Naruto and Hinata's wedding was only days away.
Konoha Village soon became filled with joy.
Red lanterns hung everywhere.
Every household pasted the character '囍' on their windows.
The entire village was immersed in celebration.
Naruto—the Hokage and hero of the Ninja World—was getting married.
Even the Moon crisis had ended.
Who would dare cause trouble now?
Konoha was also placed under strict patrol, with ANBU members constantly guarding the village.
Over the next few days, Kaien stayed by Kushina's side almost constantly, comforting her shaken heart.
More accurately—
Kushina refused to let him leave.
After this incident, aside from crossing that final line, she had already experienced everything with Kaien.
"Mother, it's time to wake up," Kaien said softly, gently shaking Kushina's shoulders. "Today is Brother Naruto's wedding day."
Kushina was dazed for a moment before slowly opening her eyes.
When she clearly saw Kaien in front of her, she suddenly hugged him tightly and bit his chest a few times.
"Ow—Mother, what are you doing? That hurts," Kaien said, pretending to wince as he rubbed the spot.
"Hmph! You little brat," Kushina snorted. "You're allowed to bite Mother, but Mother isn't allowed to bite you back?"
She released him, sat up, and casually brushed her messy hair aside.
"I'm going to take a shower," she said. "You get up and get ready too."
Completely naked, Kushina walked into the bathroom, leaving behind a lingering, intoxicating fragrance.
