The fact I couldn't talk to my team or anyone else but Yuki was hard. Yeah, I could summon Scar, but I didn't want to bother him with my problems. Plus, he was still working out the arrangements of me being able to summon the Apes.

He is the only one that responds to my call after all. Yuki said she wanted to work on the stages of our Kenkai Genkai, which is strange since I haven't used the Saigon since the beginning of the Chunin Exams. She said it would help me into unlocking the true powers of Bā-chan powers.

She said the third stage of the Saigon was really similar to her cursed powers. But here I was, sitting on the grass as I meditated for reasons I didn't know why. Yuki was pacing back and forth as I waited impatiently for something to happen.

Sighing in frustration, I laid down in the soft grass. "What's the point of this exercise?"

Yuki paused as she sighed too, "The point is to focus in your inner self. Patients and calm thinking helps in unlocking the next stage of the Saigon."

"What's the next stage of the Saigon, you never told me."

Yuki grabbed a stick from the ground. She drew in the dirt, a image of two swords was shown; one with flames and another with spiky endings, like ice. "The difference in the two legendary swords are that there's the Flame Soul sword and the Ice Calibur sword. It's obvious what's the difference right? Only a handful of people unlocked the second stage of the Saigon, and that was either the elders, Rio and Ota-san."

My eyes widen at the familiar names. "Are you saying that...?" I didn't finish my sentence as she slowly nodded.

"One way to beat Rio is by unlocking the second stage of the Saigon. Rio and Ota-san always battled with the swords. I was even there when that happened. But that's not important right now, what we need to focus on is getting you to understand the three stages and then controlling the necklace without bringing more dead people alive." She teased at the end, causing me to lightly blush at the memory.

I slightly nodded as Yuki went to pull something out of her bag. I rose a brow at item, "What is that?"

She smiled, opening the scroll. "When I was away, I practiced my own styles of making jutsus. I wrote them all out of a deprecate scroll and all the information needed for upgrading the Saigon. I personally just went back to our village and 'borrowed' the ancient scrolls, no trouble being done in that right?"

"Iie, I guess not." Silence went by as she opened the scroll but I stopped her. "Yuki, you said you got more than half of the villagers to leave, so, does that mean their..."

"Still alive? Yes and no, I don't know where they went, I just made sure they left safely with all the children an elders. That was my mission."

Ignoring any questions I wanted to ask, she unfolded the scroll and my eyes widen. There was a diagram showing how advanced the Saigon gets. The regular Saigon was incredible, but getting to advance it at this level was just beyond crazy. First, you had to breathe in and out, think calmly to get your inner self sword. Doing those activities could determine if you got fire or ice, which were the powerful swords. Most people got dull metal swords or iron.

Getting element swords were pretty cool, iron and rock, or metal and silver was pretty amazing. But fire and ice were rare. The last people who used the swords, as Yuki said, was Rio and Ota-san.

"Your goal is to get a ice sword, more likely the ice since getting fire won't help you in beating Rio." Yuki explained. "The exercises should help with calming the mind and putting down side thoughts. But a major component is emotions. You have to feel intense emotion to unlock it." She hummed. "But your energy seems to say you might have the fire sword, sadly."
