If it could not control such power, then abandoning it was the wisest choice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Your Majesty is truly wise,\" Minato said sincerely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Leave Anrokuzan to me for interrogation,\" Kitazawa said after a brief glance at Naruto. \"I'll need three days.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Minato raised an eyebrow in surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With Kitazawa's strength, three days seemed excessive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That's great!\" Naruto exclaimed happily. \"We get to stay in Roran for three more days!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Minato immediately understood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So that's it…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa really was a good teacher.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Compared to him, Jiraiya suddenly seemed… questionable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The royal palace still requires repairs,\" the Queen said apologetically. \"You will have to stay in the Side Hall for the next three days.

We'll manage.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their mission was effectively complete.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All that remained was seeing Naruto and the others safely back to the future.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Queen nodded and ordered servants to escort them to the Side Hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She herself still had countless matters to address—Anrokuzan had left chaos in his wake.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Who… are you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as they arrived, the younger Kakashi stared at Kakashi Hatake, unable to restrain himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Choza hadn't explained anything earlier, intending to leave it to Kakashi himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As it turned out, Kakashi hadn't said a word either.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now that the battle was over, the question finally spilled out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kakashi hesitated, then explained the situation briefly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn't go into details—only that he was Kakashi Hatake from the future.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even so, the younger Kakashi froze in disbelief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You two talk,\" Kitazawa said with a smile, turning away. \"I have things to do.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He took Anrokuzan with him and returned to his room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The door closed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The instant it did, Kitazawa activated his Three-Tomoe Sharingan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Caught completely off guard, Anrokuzan was instantly subdued.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa interrogated him thoroughly about the Dragon Vein.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although he already knew the outcome from the original story, confirmation never hurt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By the end, the mechanism of time travel was clear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In simple terms, an immense surge of Dragon Vein chakra distorted space-time, forcibly opening a Space-Time Tunnel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They had been pulled through because Mukade actively triggered the Dragon Vein.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To return, the same thing had to happen again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And Anrokuzan knew exactly how to make the Dragon Vein go berserk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The remaining chakra inside Anrokuzan's body originated from the Dragon Vein itself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By re-establishing a connection, that chakra could force the Dragon Vein into a runaway state.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The chakra sealed inside Kitazawa's fourth bow was more than sufficient to serve as the trigger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anrokuzan, therefore, was no longer needed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dismantled was the correct word.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As a human puppet, only his core still mattered—the rest was no longer flesh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next three days passed quietly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa stayed deliberately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For Naruto's sake.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the time came, they gathered at the Ryuugan, the core of the Dragon Vein.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was here that the Queen of Rouran had shut down its power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without Anrokuzan's defeat, this place would never have been opened to outsiders.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Before you return to the future,\" Minato said softly, \"we must seal each other's memories.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Does it really have to be sealed?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naruto asked quietly, staring at the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the past week, he had experienced something he had never known—warmth, family, parents.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if it was fleeting…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn't want to lose it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Minato-senpai.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa spoke at just the right moment. \"We come from the future.
