Trusting Tsunade

Ken shook his head and said.

"I didn't know that. So, does that mean I can't create this move?"

Tsunade suddenly realized Ken was just a child who had graduated. The enemy ninjas might have heard about Minato's Rasengan, but not the kids.

That's because Minato's Rasengan was a killing move. Only the Jonin of the village knew about it.

She only learned about it after the Second Great Ninja War since that's when he started practicing this move for his girlfriend, Kushina.

But since Kushina couldn't enter the battlefield so easily, he started using this Jutsu with the combination of his Flying Thunder God.

She shook her head and said.

"It doesn't matter. As long as you can create it on your own, Minato won't trouble you with this. He might even try to help you learn this Jutsu."

"But that move consumes a lot of Chakra. Even for Minato, it wasn't a move that he would use against normal people. So, that second idea of yours makes more sense."

"But still, you don't have Lightning Attribute. If you want to learn Lightning Nature Transformation, it would take years."

"Not with this Jutsu." Ken stood up and made a Tiger Seal.

[Shadow Clone Jutsu]

As soon as she saw that, an idea emerged in Tsunade's head, but she quickly shook it off her head.

"Even so, you won't be able to bear the consequences of constantly using this move. You would waste more time in the hospital than on training, which is not productive at all."

Hearing that, Ken suddenly came up with an idea. This was something that he hadn't thought of before, but now that he had a chance, he could tell her.

After all, it was bound to be revealed one day. So, he might as well use this move to leverage his innocence.

Originally, he planned to hide it for a long time, but considering he was going into a battle with 85 Chunin, it was better to tell her right now and use it during a battle.

"Lady Tsunade, there is one thing that I haven't told anyone before. But you have been good to me despite our differences, so I don't want to hide it from you."

Hearing his words, Tsunade gave him a confused look before she showed a look of horror. She stood up from her chair and asked.

"You haven't awakened Mangekyo Sharingan?"

Ken was stunned for a moment. He quickly shook his head and said.

"No, no, I haven't even awakened Three Tomoe. I didn't even know what Mangekyo was until two weeks ago."

Only then did Tsunade sigh a breath of relief.

It wasn't that she feared him after Mangekyo. It was because Mangekyo could twist his thoughts, and that would be dangerous for the village.

"So, what is it?" Tsunade asked. She calmed down a little bit but still became more curious about his secret.

She was also feeling a bit sweet because Ken was revealing his secret to her.

"I have a strange creature inside of me. It's a Raccoon Dog made out of sand, and it is the size of this tent."

Ken slowly pulled his t-shirt and revealed a little bit of Chakra on his stomach.

As soon as she heard that, Tsunade's mind went blank for a moment. She rushed in front of him and grabbed him by his shoulder.

"Impossible! I tested your body before. There shouldn't be any Sealing Jutsu on you. And, what you are describing as a Tailed Beast."

Her voice sounded threatening.

But Ken wasn't troubled by her voice. Instead, he calmly explained.

"That's because it shouldn't be a Tailed Beast, at least not what you think. Because during my fight with the Jonin, it was only the size of a small marble."

"And it was this thing that gave me enough Chakra to fight a Jonin. Otherwise, do you think a Genin can have a Chakra Reserve of a Jonin?"

Hearing his words, Tsunade calmed down a bit.

'Yeah! That shouldn't be possible. How could Sand Village put their Tailed Beast in the body of a Konoha ninja? But, then, why is it so similar to a Tailed Beast?'

She suspiciously stared at him and asked.

"Did you make any mistake with its appearance?"

Ken rolled his head and asked.

"Do you think Sharingan can make a mistake like that? I saw it grow from the size of a marble to the size of this tent. But it should be related to the Tailed Beast."

"Because before this, I didn't have Wind and Earth Attribute."

Hearing that, Tsunade said.

"Listen, Ken, you mustn't tell anyone about this. Does no one understand?

Tsunade was certainly pleased to know about it first, but she also knew the danger if anyone knew about this.

It wasn't a simple thing. This could be a world-changing event.

A tenth-tailed beast appeared, and it appeared inside a Konoha Ninja. More importantly, this Konoha Ninja was a Uchiha.

"Don't worry, Lady Tsunade! I haven't told anyone about this. Certainly, I can't hide it forever, and I don't need to when I reach a certain level of strength."

"But for now, except for you, nobody else knows about it."

Ken nodded his head and answered, constantly thinking how to make Tsunade believe in him even more.

Tsunade's presence in the village was different from any other Ninja.

She abandoned Konoha for almost a decade, but even so, she could return and become the Fifth Hokage.

That's because she was the granddaughter of the First Hokage, Princess of the Fire Country, the World's Best Medical Ninja, and a Kage Level Ninja.

These were titles that gave her massive popularity among the Konoha Ninja. So, even if she did leave the village for so long, she could still return and join the Konoha as a Hokage.

If she didn't leave Konoha and if she supported him in the future, Ken wouldn't have to worry about having no political power in the village.

That's why he decided to reveal this secret to Tsunade.

Of course, there was another reason.

Tsunade wasn't a hypocrite like Third Hokage, nor was she a hardcore hater like Danzo.

She did her best to save people who were her companions, but if they decided to be a threat to the village, she wouldn't hesitate to destroy them.

This was proven when she gave Team Seven a chance to kill Orochimaru and bring back Sasuke.

She knew just how low Orochimaru had fallen, so even if he was her teammate before, she gave up on him.

But, at the same time, Sasuke hadn't fallen that low yet. So, she gave him a chance to return.

Ken knew these things, so he decided to play some bets on her, telling her about one of the core secrets.

"That being said, I don't understand why you have this power. There shouldn't be anyone who could create a tenth-tailed beast and put it inside you, right?"

Tsunade muttered.

"I mean, it could be Sage of Six Paths. After all, he was a god-like being from thousands of years ago. And, since Uchiha has some relationship with Sage of Six Paths, he could have given me this Tailed Beast."

Ken replied.

Hearing that, Tsunade rolled her eyes and said.

"Do you even understand what you are saying? Not to mention, Sage of Six Paths is dead. Even if he was alive in some sort, he wouldn't create a Tailed Beast without any reason."

Ken shrugged his shoulders and said.

"Should we even think about it? Since I have a Tailed Beast, and it is unlike any other, I can show a lot of strength on the battlefield."

"No, if the matter of your Tailed Beast is revealed to the public, it would be bad." Tsunade shook her head and replied.

"Look!"

Ken didn't explain. Instead, he directly entered Shukaku Chakra Mode.

The moment he entered that mode, Ken's aura drastically changed. In an instant, his powers improved to the point where even Tsunade could feel threatened.

"This….."

Tsunade's eyes widened for a moment as she continued.

"This is not a normal Tailed Beast power. I have seen them before. Their Chakra is always red, not like this. What happened to yours?"

Hearing that, Ken scratched his head and said.

"Lady Tsunade, this is just my speculation, but don't you know Tailed Beast hates us? Considering how humans have sealed them for so long, it is normal for them to hate us."

"And our emotions can influence our Chakra. Isn't it the same for Tailed Beast? Not to mention, they have been misunderstood for thousands of years. So, it is normal for them to have a red Chakra that represents hate."

"On the other hand, my Tailed Beast was just born a few days ago. It doesn't have any hatred toward me or anyone else. So, its Chakra is pure."

Tsunade thought about it and suddenly realized that her grandfather gathered them and sold them to other villages.

Didn't that mean her grandfather was the biggest culprit for their hatred toward humanity?
