Naruto: Reincarnated as Sasuke Uchiha with Perfect Talents.

Seeing that Sasuke seemed to be deep in thought, Tsunade abandoned her intention of continuing to talk about Wood Release. She smiled awkwardly and then looked at Sasuke.

"Sasuke Uchiha, regardless of the issues between you and Konoha in the past, as the Fifth Hokage of Konoha, I welcome you back to the village at any time!"

This statement stunned everyone in the training field.

Even Orochimaru, who was approaching the area, paused as he overheard Tsunade's words before reaching the entrance.

This surprised Orochimaru.

He didn't expect Tsunade to offer such a shocking condition to recruit a genius.

If Sasuke were to return to Konoha, how would the village explain it internally?

Although Sasuke did not participate directly in the Konoha Crush Plan, his actions, such as stealing the Scroll of Seals, were considered rebellious.

This also meant that Sasuke bore some responsibility for the death of the Third Hokage, something the village's elders would absolutely not accept.

"Don't worry. As long as you're willing to return to Konoha, I can remove your status as a rogue ninja at any time!"

"I will take full responsibility!"

Though Tsunade spoke with determination, her demeanor revealed a hint of shyness.

While Sasuke, the Sound Four, and Kimimaro didn't notice, women like Haku and Guren picked up on it immediately.

Tsunade was blushing!

As the Fifth Hokage of Konoha, why would she be embarrassed at this moment?

"Tsunade, you really will say or do anything to recruit a genius," Orochimaru's voice interrupted, causing Tsunade to turn toward him.

"You too, Orochimaru, are welcome to return to Konoha anytime!"

Tsunade's expression turned complex after saying this. After all, no matter how one looked at it, Orochimaru was the person who had killed Hiruzen Sarutobi.

Compared to Sasuke, Orochimaru's crimes were even harder to forgive.

However, Tsunade still uttered these words, leaving Orochimaru, who had intended to provoke her, momentarily speechless.

To be honest, Orochimaru was touched.

"Alright, I must return to Konoha now. Think about it yourselves!"

Although Tsunade was reluctant to leave, she was still the Hokage of Konoha and couldn't linger here for long.

Especially with Konoha's current state, which required her leadership.

Completing the Hokage inauguration ceremony as soon as possible and solidifying her position was crucial.

This precedent set by Konoha could create complications in future Hokage successions, potentially leading to another internal conflict.

With Tsunade gone, Orochimaru chuckled belatedly.

He glanced at everyone, said nothing, and left.

Sasuke also didn't intend to waste any more time.

He was only one step away from raising the system's evaluation to the Jonin level.

Thus, heading to Ryūchi Cave to train in Sage Mode was something he eagerly anticipated.

This time, without Orochimaru's assistance, Sasuke summoned the snakes of Ryūchi Cave himself.

He asked the White Snake Sage to summon him there.

Meanwhile, the rest of the group was dismissed by Sasuke.

However, Kimimaro seemed to linger around the area, as if guarding it.

Kimimaro appeared to have taken on the role of Sasuke's bodyguard.

As Orochimaru had once said, "I saved you once, but now the one who saved you is Sasuke Uchiha.

Your purpose from now on should be tied to Sasuke Uchiha."

Having Kimimaro follow Sasuke was Orochimaru's way of observing what changes a three-tailed Jinchūriki and a monstrously gifted Uchiha could bring to the ninja world.

For now, Orochimaru decided to be an observer, waiting for the winds of change.

Haku and Guren also resumed their respective training.

During their time training with Sasuke, they witnessed the terrifying pace at which a genius could progress.

Haku, in particular, realized that if she slacked off any further, Sasuke might leave her behind entirely. Not wanting to be left behind again, she threw herself into even more intense training.

Meanwhile, Sasuke arrived at Ryūchi Cave and stood before the White Snake Sage.

Before Sasuke could speak, the White Snake Sage expressed surprise.

"What a terrifying kid. I can't believe you've grown this much stronger in such a short time!"

The White Snake Sage's astonishment puzzled Sasuke. How had the sage so easily discerned his growth in strength?

No matter, he would think about that later.

For now, Sasuke had only one question.

"I want to strengthen my mastery of Sage Mode. What should I do?"

Strengthen Sage Mode?

The White Snake Sage paused. "Haven't you already achieved perfect Sage Mode? How could it be further strengthened?"

Sasuke was speechless. It seemed the sage couldn't comprehend his question, but at least he could inquire about ways to quickly enhance his Sage Mode.

"If you want to deepen your expertise in Sage Arts, it will be a long process," the White Snake Sage replied.

"Whether it's Sage Chakra or regular chakra, both are forms of energy. How you control them is something you must understand on your own. Perception is crucial."

"Over time, you will accumulate more experience, and naturally, you will grow stronger."

The White Snake Sage wagged its tail as it continued.

"If you want to speed up the process, you could learn some Sage Techniques. That would help accelerate your progress slightly."

"But Sasuke, rushing your training can lead to missed opportunities," the sage warned.

Sasuke smiled. Perception?

Was the sage really preaching perception to him?

Fine. When it came to talent, Sasuke had never feared anyone.

As for rushing training and making mistakes? That wasn't something Sasuke believed could happen to him.

However, the idea of learning Sage Techniques to speed up his mastery of Sage Mode, especially understanding the usage of Sage Chakra, intrigued him.

If that were the case, why not learn a Sage Technique?

"You mentioned last time that you'd teach me a Sage Technique.

What is it? I'm ready to learn now."

Hearing Sasuke's eagerness to learn Sage Techniques, the White Snake Sage smiled.

"Very well!"

"I'll teach you now. This Sage Technique is extremely difficult, but with your talent, it shouldn't be too hard for you to master.

It's just a matter of time."

"This Sage Technique is called Sage Art: Inorganic Reincarnation!"

"Let us begin..."
