(T/N: Enjoy!!)

<><><><><><>

Mushi certainly didn't oppose becoming Asahi's summoning beast. 

After all, with someone as powerful as Asahi, even becoming a mount would lead to significant improvements. 

Moreover, witnessing Asahi's earth-shattering methods just now made it completely subservient.

What surprised it was the attitude of the Snow Bear three clan heads. 

Weren't they the three leaders who were usually either beating them or on their way to beat them with their bad tempers? 

How come they were so humble, even submissive? 

Seeing Mushi's loss of composure, the Snow Bear three clan heads were somewhat annoyed and gave it a stern look.

Couldn't it see they were striving for the rise of their clan here? Why cause trouble here? They didn't have any insight at all. 

Mushi, seeing the three leader staring at him with their piercing eyes, quickly shrunk its neck in fear. 

Asahi wasn't displeased with this; he could only say that the Snow Bear three clan heads were being overly restrained.

But there was nothing to be done about it; the situation was stronger than people. 

At this moment, Asahi looked somewhat puzzled at the Snow Bear three clan heads and then asked, 

"Do you Snow Bear clan wish to become members of my summoning beast group? Why?" 

Upon hearing Asahi's words, the Snow Bear three clan heads exchanged glances, and then Yukimaru, who was in the middle, spoke up:

"It's like this, Lord Asahi, we hope to become your summoning beasts because we hope to receive your assistance." 

"Assistance? What kind of assistance?" Asahi raised an eyebrow, somewhat puzzled. 

Although these three bears were much weaker compared to Asahi, they were still quite skilled in the ninja world.

Especially these three clan heads, their strength was already at the level of Kage. 

Especially when combined with their massive size, while they couldn't be said to be invincible in the ninja world, they could still live comfortably. 

So, Asahi really didn't know why the Snow Bear clan, living so far away in the extreme northern glacier, needed his help as a human.

"Sage Mode." Faced with Asahi's confusion, Yukimaru stated the Snow Bear clan's purpose without hesitation. 

They didn't waste time beating around the bush; a powerful individual's time was precious, especially someone like Asahi. 

The Snow Bear three clan heads were wise old bears, and they understood this very well.

So, they directly laid their cards on the table. This way, they might even earn a bit of goodwill from Asahi. 

Indeed, their clean and decisive approach left a good impression on Asahi. 

So, after hearing the Snow Bear clan heads state their request, Asahi fell silent for a moment, pondering.

As for whether the Snow Bear clan knew he could enter Sage Mode, Mushi didn't find it surprising. 

When he had acted just now, he had used Sage Jutsu. For a powerful and mysterious summoning beast clan, it was normal to sense the difference.

However, what he didn't expect was that the Snow Bear clan actually wanted to learn Sage Mode through him. 

According to Mushi's habitual thinking, powerful summoning beast groups should all have their own unique Sage Mode, right? 

After all, places like Myoboku Mountain, Ryuchi Cave, Shikkotsu Forest and various fan-made stories described it that way.

Of course, this was the real world after all. For the ninja world, only the three great sage possessed Sage Mode. 

Asahi didn't know about the hidden conflicts between summoning beast clan, so it was understandable that he was puzzled. 

However, Asahi quickly pushed aside his doubts about this matter.

Whether summoning beasts had their own Sage Mode was none of his concern. 

What he was considering now was whether to help the Snow Bear clan. 

Although Asahi didn't need so-called summoning beasts, they would be neighbors in the future after all. 

Moreover, just because Mushi didn't need summoning beasts didn't mean that his disciples and followers wouldn't need them.

For ordinary shinobi, even reaching the level of Kage, it's very necessary to have a powerful summoning beast. 

After all, two against one is always better than one-on-one. So, after thinking for a moment, Asahi made a decision. 

"I'm sorry, three clan heads, but I don't need summoning beasts."

Asahi first expressed his regret, and upon hearing his words, the Snow Bear three clan heads all wore expressions of disappointment. 

To be honest, the result of Asahi's refusal was within their expectations. After all, Asahi's strength was indeed much stronger than theirs.

If there were really battles where help was needed, their Snow Bear clan wouldn't be of any assistance. 

In such a situation, why would anyone choose them as summoning beasts? And they would have to sacrifice precious training methods for this. 

They only spoke up to seize an opportunity.

However, although they were mentally prepared, they still couldn't avoid feeling disappointed after getting this result. 

There was hope, but they didn't know how to grasp it. 

The intense disappointment on the faces of the Snow Bear three clan heads was naturally noticed by Asahi.

But he believed that the next moment, the Snow Bear three clan heads would show ecstatic expressions. 

After all, the greater the disappointment from failure, the greater the joy if success was achieved. 

After a brief pause, Asahi continued, "However..."

As soon as the turning point was mentioned, the eyes of the Snow Bear three clan heads instantly lit up with excitement. 

Whatever came after "however" would be good news as long as there was room for negotiation. 

Asahi didn't make the Snow Bear three clan heads wait long; almost without any pause, he continued:

"I can agree to teach you Sage Mode, but of course, you naturally need to agree to a condition from me." 

"What condition? Please go ahead and tell us." 

Asahi's voice had just fallen, and the excited voice of the Snow Bear three clan heads followed.

Not to mention one condition, even if it were three or ten conditions, they couldn't compare to the importance of Sage Mode for the Snow Bear clan. 

So, as long as they could do it, regardless of the conditions, the Snow Bear clan would naturally spare no effort to fulfill them.

"I hope that your Snow Bear clan can join the Ogami Clan and become our summoning beast group." 

"In the future, if our Ogami Clan disciples need to sign spirit beast contracts, they can directly sign contracts with your Snow Bear clan." 

"Furthermore, although I don't mind if you seek contract partners outside the clan, you cannot teach Sage Mode to them, as it is the cultivation method of our Ogami Clan." 

"Of course, you don't need to worry. Even if Ogami Clan disciples want to sign summoning beast contracts, they still need to pass the clan's assessment."

Asahi spoke to the Snow Bear three clan heads, and although the conditions he proposed seemed to restrict some aspects of the Snow Bear clan, 

Such as allowing Ogami Clan disciples to sign contracts with them as long as they passed the clan's assessment, the Snow Bear clan couldn't refuse this outcome at all.
