“No, the way you said my name was as if you knew me clearly,” continued Tsunade. “Is this some ploy by another village to get to me? Pretend to be injured to get close.”
“You have quite the imagination.”
“I guess it does not matter. I’ll take you down first. I can get the extracted information later.”
[Chakra Enhanced Strength]
She rushed toward him before punching him. Boom! The force generated by her attack made Shizune’s clothes flap, destroyed the surrounding pieces of furniture, and left cracks in the walls.
“How is that possible?” said Tsunade as he saw her attack was useless. The man, who was missing two arms and one leg and appeared defenseless, just took one of her attack point blanks with no reaction.
Boom! Boom! Boom! She continued punching to no avail.
“Have you had enough?” asked Edward. “Even in my sorry state, I can still annihilate this little planet with a wink. And if I did not control my power, it would have automatically counter-attacked and instantly killed you.”
He was not lying. When he is unconscious and in a vulnerable situation, his Aura and Mana will act on their own and protect him.
“Who are you? No, better yet, what are you?” asked Tsunade with a severe look.
“You can think of me as an alien from another planet.”
“Alien Lifeforms exist?”
“You don’t know about Alien? That can only mean this is the time period before the Fourth Great Shinobi War and the appearance of the Otsutsuki Clan.” He also realized the current Tsunade was not the one who gave up her Hokage Position after the war and traveled the world. It is the one who has not become the fifth Hokage.
“Fourth Great Shinobi War? What nonsense are you talking about? There is no such thing.”
“Not yet.”
“You can see in the future?”
‘Of course,” replied Edward while looking at his body. He lost three limbs, but he did not care about that. The issue with his body was void of energy and some weird power that prevented his healing; he needed to remove these powers before he could regenerate his body.
As for his strength, it was not affected. However, every time he used it, these two powers embedded themselves deep into his body and prolonged his recovery.
Edward closed his eyes for a moment. ‘Morgana seemed fine despite the injury.’ He still did not know what happened, but he could guess; he probably encountered some scary life form in the void, and Morgana acted swiftly and used the emergency protocol to send him to safety.
‘I cannot survive the in the Void, so I need to send news back home so someone can come to pick me up.’ He did not think of creating a Floating City in this universe since it would take too long.
‘I need to heal, but also a way to gather the thing I want in this world. If I wait until I’m healed, I might waste too much time. Plus, I might have to wait until I return home before I heal completely. So, I need another body.’
He raised his eyes to look at Tsunade, making her somewhere uneasy.
“Do you mind giving me some information about chakra and Jutsus?”
“Why?”
“To learn, of course.”
“I”m sorry, but I can’t.”
“Why?” asked Edward.
“I cannot indulge the secret of the Hidden Leaf. So, even if I die, I won’t say a word.” She had a look of determination to die, But facing this person that may be more powerful than her grandfather, she had no hesitation.
“Hmm, I forgot you Ninjas were people trained as child soldiers and brainwashed to be loyal to your village,” commented Edward before frowning. Then, he became dazed while thinking.
“I could effortlessly read her mind to get the information I want,” he said. “However, her brain has a seal, and without knowing anything about the Chakra System, there is a chance of killing her. And that would be a waste.”
Tsunade’s heart skipped a beat, but she remained determined. Meanwhile, Edward closed his eyes again and cast a spell to detect the surrounding hundred kilometers. Then, he found what he wanted: a rogue ninja without any seals in his brain.
A portal appeared before him, and the rogue ninja appeared in the room. Before the latter could understand what was happening, she passed out, and Edward read her memory.
“Interesting power system,” he commented.
“Space-Time Ninjutsu,” said Shizune in shock.
“There was no seal,” added Tsunade. “No, I didn’t even sense any chakra.”
Edward looked at the two, “Do you mind helping me with something? In exchange, I can grant you any wish.”
“If I help you, will it affect the Hidden Leaf Village?”
“Considering I will be stealing all the Jutsus of this planet, study the blood of all the clans with Kekkei Genkai, probably. But I can promise not to do too much damage to the Hidden Leaf.”
“In that case, I refuse.”
“Are you sure? My powers are godlike, meaning I can give you many unimaginable things. For example, I can help you awaken your grandfather’s Wood Style. I can grant you immortality, or better yet, I can revive your brother.”
Tsunade frowned but did not say anything, showing her attitude.
“When I say revive, I don’t mean Edo Tensei. I mean a perfect revival. Or if you want, I can summon your brother from the past, from the moment before he dies, and you can use your current medical skill to save him, to have a chance to redeem your younger self’s failure.”
Tsunade’s heart beat faster, and she clenched her hand,” if you are so powerful, why do you need my help?”
“I won’t lie, but the more I use my power, the longer it will take me to heal.”
“So, what do you need me to do?”
“I need you to create a clone for me to use.”
“Cloning? That’s beyond my capabilities.”
“I know this, but I will give you the knowledge. And with your Medical expertise, you can master this knowledge rapidly.
” Edward could have used the Mirror Clone Spell he learned from Gauche, the sistercon from the Black Bull Squad. However, the spell requires mana to maintain the clone, and he could not use his mana in this way.
“It doesn’t matter since I refuse your offer.”
“A woman with a strong will, my type, commented Edward with a smile.
“You’re weird,” commented Tsunade.
“It’s the price for being so powerful and living for so long,” shrugged Edward. “How about I try another tactic? If you don’t help, I’ll have to ask Orochimary for help. You can imagine the consequences of him acquiring my knowledge and power.”
“Lady Tsunade!’ said Shizune, who knew the terrible consequences of that happening.
“Do you have to do this?”
“Yes,” nodded Edward. “Plus, it’s not like the Hidden Leaf will truly be affected.”
“How is it stealing all our S-Rank Jutsus not affect us?”
“Well, all the other village will lose their Jutsus. And it’s not like I will spread them or something.”
Tsunade took a moment to analyze the situation. She could not stop this person based on the power he had previously displayed. And if this man allied with Orochimaru, it would be a recipe for disaster.
“You said you would grant me any wish?”
“Correct.”
“In that case, I accept your offer. However, there are two issues: the first is money. We would need a lot of money to establish a lab for cloning. Secondly, I…I have hemophobia.”
“No problem,” replied Edward. He used a spell to access his interdimensional space and took out a potion and stacks of gold.
“G-Gold. So much gold,” muttered Shizune.
“This potion is for your hemophobia.” Before coming to the Naruto World, Edward prepared a way to deal with Tsunade’s issue. In the Empire, many anxiety disorders like hemophobia can be cured with potions, psychologists, or the help of Spiritual Arcanists.
“There is more than enough gold. You can use some of it for your gambling addiction.”
“It’s not an addiction,” countered Tsunade. “Plus, how do you know so much about me?”
“I know everything.”
Tsunade ignored him as she looked at the potion. She took a moment before grabbing it; there was no turning back. Without hesitation, she chugged it down and closed her eyes.
A few minutes later, she opened her eyes and created a Chakra Blade with the tip of her finger. Then, she gently cut her wrist before watching the blood slowly trickle down on the floor.
“Lady Tsunade.”
“I’m fine. No, I’m better than before.” She always blamed herself for not being able to save Dan. But now, she understood and accepted that it was not her fault, that she had done her best.
“You guys can go set up everything.” Edward gave them an interdimensional bag, making his complexion a little paler after using so many spells.
After the group left, he looked in one direction: “Old Geezer, don’t you know it’s impolite to stare?”

i feel its fine that he goes away from war, a test for his subordinate
Addanc
Remember this is a "short" trip. We'll be back to the war in about 30 chapters lol
BLazeSavage
Honestly it was kind of dumb and irresponsible of him to go away before the war was finished
