Chapter 103 : What Went Wrong (Rewrite)

"Okay, let me try to understand this. According to you, the sealing array which I found was left behind by the ancestors of the Uzumaki clan" Kirito asked Kashin.

After finally acknowledging the fact that he is in the past. Kirito needed some answers and Kashin gladly explained what going on after Kirito told him how he ended up there.

Apparently the sealing array which Kirito interacted with was created by some of the early ancestors of the Uzumaki clan. Even the current clan have no idea about what that sealing array represents.

In fact, the current Uzumaki clan does not even know about the sealing array which their ancestors left behind. Only a few selected elders and the patriarch when he comes to a suitable age are given this information.

"But it still does not explain why I am here," Kirito asked.

"Nothing does but you are here. Are you not?" pointed out Kashin.

It was not more than 3 hours before he woke up and the only person Kirito had come in contact with still now was Kashin. He was a wise elder. A little more relaxed and easygoing for Kirito's liking but it's far better than what Konoha have to offer.

Kashin told him that he was found in the same sealing room of the Uzumaki clan. In fact, the only reason they found him was that the incredible amount of chakra was radiating from him.

Currently, only Kashin knows that he is from the past and his real identity. This was a little salvation Kirito had. Otherwise, people might have created more fuss about him being here than it's needed.

"What did your ancestors create that place for in the first place" Kirito asked in agitation.

"Young man, you should show some respect here. If I am not wrong then you also have the Uzumaki Blood. Meaning that they are your ancestors as well" Kashin said in a stern voice.

Kirito narrowed his eyes and asked in suspicion. " How do you know that I have Uzumaki blood in me".

"Ho-oh, I might be old but I can tell if one of our own is standing in front of me," Kashin said.

Kirito raised one eyebrow and demanded the reason. Seeing this Kashin shook his head a little and laughed.

"There is also the reason that you were able to use that sealing array in the first place," said Kashin.

This made Kirito to understand something and he asked.

"That array could be only used by an Uzumaki," Kirito said. It was more like a statement than a question.

Kashin just nodded his head and said.

"Not just any Uzumaki. The amount of chakra and Spiritual fortitude needed to use that sealing array and jump time itself is extraordinary. No one in centuries was able to use that sealing array in the past. Even the most powerful of the Uzumaki in centuries come short of the requirement to use that sealing array." Kashin said.

"How much chakra and Spiritual Fortitude we are talking about here" ask Kirito.

Kashin just hummed to himself and thought for a second.

"We are talking somewhere about Biju's level of chakra and mental fortitude which nowadays people are just not born with. Over the years shinobi have lost their Spiritual power because of how their bodies kept on merging their Spiritual power with Physical power to produce chakra. In fact, our ancestors had so strong Spiritual power that they could have manifested their will in real life" Kashin said but did not look very convincing himself. Kirito could hardly believe him.

"Anyways, those things do not matter. The important thing is that you were able to use that sealing array and come back to the past. Meaning not only you have a lot of chakra but also powerful spiritual energy or will." Kashin tried to conclude what he found fascinating but Kirito hardly cared.

"Who cares about my willpower? How do I go back home?" Kirito asked in desperation. Kashin has wasted a lot of his time without giving him the answers he wants.

"That, well I don't know. I do know that there is a way to send you back and it's through the same sealing array but to do that we have to modify that sealing array which is pretty hard. Hardly anyone understands those complex sealing arrays nowadays. " Kashin said and stood up.

"For the time being just rest. I will inform about your situation to the clan head." Kashin said and left.

Kirito just sat there with clear desperation on his face.

"So this is why Minato sealed that place. I never expected that I would say this someday but I should listen to my parent's advice more" Kirito muttered.

"But now that I think about it. It's not like I did not understand the sealing array at all. Yeah, there are many things which I still did not understand but I believe that I might be able to reverse engineer it and send myself back to the future. But before that, I need to learn more about seals. Mainly time-space jutsu." thought Kirito.

"Well Kirito, no used sulking here. If I am planning to go back home any time soon then I don't have time to waste. I better get started with learning as much as possible about Fuinjutsu as possible. And this place is famous for its Fuinjustu" Kirito motivated himself and stood up. And directly went out.
