376 376. Back To Konoha

Onoki saw Alexander not attacking first. He was quite analytical in combat, normally feeling the potential opponent out first before engaging in direct combat.

So, he wanted to check the waters first and started with simple attacks. Ōnoki was able to use Earth, Fire, Wind, Lightning, and Yang Release. He used Earth release to create rock clones and massive golems to aid him.

He sent those clones and golems to Alexander. Alexander didn't even move. He stayed there and let the attacks come to him.

Once in range, Alexander raised his right hand towards the clones and motioned as if he was flicking something with just his index finger.

Alexander did it just once. But there was no visible effect from it. Then suddenly,

*BOOM*

Out of nowhere a gust of wind appeared near the clones and golems and destroyed them like they were nothing. It didn't just stop there, the gust of wind soon turned into a full-fledged tornado.

It moved towards Onoki who was still in shock. His testing the waters strategy had painfully backfired.

Onoki quickly used Dust release to disperse the tornado.

~He's pretty strong. But it seems he's not in the mood to play.~ Onoki thought.

He used Lava Release release and sent multiple attacks on Alexander and also changed the ground to Lava.

It didn't even make Alexander flinch. He just stood on the Lava and looked at Onoki, "Go on, prepare for whatever attack you wanted to use. I will wait."

It was humiliating for Onoki but he swallowed it in hope of having the last laugh. This time, he wanted to use Particle Style: Atomic Dismantling Jutsu.

It was a Kekkei Tota, meaning Bloodline Selection, it was an advanced branch of jutsu that was more advanced than the jutsu class of kekkei genkai(Bloodline limit). The only known example was Dust Release, a combination of three different nature transformations of earth, wind, and fire.

In this technique, the user creates a structure with a sphere located at its center, between the palms of his hands. The structure expands rapidly in size when being propelled towards its intended target and traps them inside its confines.

The sphere then seems to explode with a tremendous amount of force, while the exterior walls of the structure effectively restrict the size of the blast radius, resulting in the destruction of everything and anyone caught within as they are pulverized into minute particles of dust.

The technique wasn't limited to just affecting physical matter, it could also affect chakra-based defenses.

The resulting damage that this technique could produce varies considerably, depending on the initial shape of the created structure.

For example, when fabricated in the form of a cube, the structure possesses a relatively small blast radius, minimizing the possibility of collateral damage. However, the conical version was implied to be enough to potentially destroy an entire island. The size was also a big factor.

And what Onoki was making was a conical structure and the size was as big as a small mountain. He trapped Alexander in it and started expanding the sphere inside it.

It was obvious that the blast was going to be huge and powerful.

Then it happened. *BOOOM*

Although the blast was contained inside the structure, it was still loud enough to shake the grounds.

*CRACK*

Just when Onoki thought he won, he noticed the invisible conical structure breaking up. The cracks grew wider and wider. Soon Alexander came out smashing it apart.

There wasn't even a single scratch on him, "Onoki, you are very strong, but you still got so much to learn."

He kept on walking towards him, breaking his arrogance with each step he took forward. Soon, he was standing in front of the short man.

"Hitting you with my hands would be a mockery of my abilities. You lost, for this, I am resetting your Kekkei Tota. You will have to learn it from the beginning now. You have used it to fight for most of your life and kill people, there will be nothing of value lost," Alexander roughly said and started walking away.

Onoki still tried to attack him with Dust release but his abilities weren't working. He fell to the ground in despair, realizing what Alexander said was real.

Douglas quickly announced that Alexander won and ended the whole show. He followed the tailed beasts to outside Iwagakure.

Alexander was waiting for them there, "Okay, my work here is done, Douglas. You will now manage the whole Earth country. You just have to follow my lead and replicate what I do in Konoha. I will now return to Konoha and check Nagato's eyes soon. I'll see if I can get that husk of the Ten-Tails into my possession.

"Because I don't trust you that you will not do something like Hats, I am leaving Bunpuku as your in-charge," he told him.

Douglas' eyebrows twitched at the blatant attack on his honor, "Come on, boss. You know I'm not like that anymore."

"Yeah, says the man who crossdresses." Alexander smirkingly said.

"Ah come on, that was because of Gina." Douglas defended.

"Well, Hats took a photo so that image is immortalized now. Anyways, Bunpuku, if he misbehaves, tell me quickly, I'll send a good hard smack through the anywhere door." He instructed.

"Do not worry, Lord Sage, I will help you bring enlightenment to this world," Bunpuku assured him.

~Man, he's changed a lot since I gave him that Buddhist literature. He even thinks I invented it and looks at me as god incarnate. I hope he doesn't turn into a fanatical believer.~ Alexander scaredly thought.

He patted their shoulders and started his return journey. It wasn't very long. With the tailed beasts around for continuous songs and clumsy entertainment, he never found himself bored.

He came to the main gates of Konoha and saw two Shinobi standing guard there. The two instantly noticed him and greeted him with a deep bow. "Lord Hokage, welcome back, it has been very long since we last saw you."

"Ah, yes, it's been around 3 years I believe," Alexander muttered.

"Hey, where is our welcome?" Shukaku asked.

The two Shinobi laughed, "Welcome back, team Bijuu. Konoha has been missing you all. The children in orphanage ask about your return every day."

"Oh no, we need to check up on kids. What if they develop depression, let's go team Bijuu, we need to help." Chomei shouted and led the way. Only Kurama stayed with Alexander, sitting on his shoulder and acting like he was asleep. In fact, he was just enjoying his time on his G-Chan's shoulder.

"Good job, Kotetsu and Izumo, here, have these." He handed them chocolates like they were children and went inside.

He passed by the commercial district and heard lots of noise coming from a building. Soon, a white-haired man was seen thrown off of the roof of the building.

The man fell near Alexander's feet.

"Jiraiya my boy, when will you straighten up and stop these perverted activities." Alexander tiredly asked.

"Ah, you're back, old man? Well, good job I guess, I heard what you did in Suna. And now to your question, I am researching for the first edition of my book, Icha Icha." Jiraiya informed him.

"And what about wooing Tsunade? Where did you reach in that journey?" Alexander asked.

"Ah, that... well, she beats me a lot." Jiraiya scratched his head.

"That is because you act foolish and perverted. Just imagine Jiraiya, if you were able to impress her and marry her someday. Then you will be able to research on her all you want without any restrictions. Imagine a book, 'The secret life of a happily married Shinobi'. It will be an instant hit." Alexander suggested to him.

Jiraiya's face was turning from perverted, probably thinking about researching with Tsunade, to greedy, thinking about how much his book would sell.

"Hoho... I guess it's time I go to the next avenue seriously. It's time to..." Jiraiya wasn't able to finish speaking as an empty tin can hit his head.

Jiraiya looked back and saw a small, probably 3 or 4-year-old blonde kid, grinning at him, "Pervy Sage got caught again? Well, the bath-house owner paid me well to keep an eye on a pervert after all."

"So it was you who ratted me out, Naruto? You little rascal, I'll spank you. Come here." Jiraiya ran after the kid.

Alexander saw the laughing child with warmth in his heart. Before he even knew it, so much time had gone by. ~*Sigh* They grow up so fast. Does he even remember me?~

He walked up to the two to stop them from fighting.
