Chapter 330: Sage of Beasts
He also found a large company registered under his name and also a team of special bodyguards whom he suspected weren\'t humans but robots.
It had been 5 years since that fortunate encounter and he had finally started changing the world for the better with his \'invention\'
Many times he would still look up in the sky whenever he was alone, wanting to imagine what a truly advanced civilization from where the old man came from was like.
He had tried to share this secret with his wife but he knew she didn\'t believe him. No one in their right mind would. But not wanting to take all the credit to himself, he just wrote a book about his time on Mars where he added Dobby, Ragnarok, and Alexander as his hallucinations who taught him and kept him sane.
After the book was launched, he was permanently grounded for any missions by Nasa because they were doubtful about his mental stability now.
But for him, it was all worth it.
...
Alexander opened his eyes and found himself sitting crossed legs in a rundown wooden building. His beard and hair had overgrown like he had been sitting like this for a long time.His clothes were also weird. He was wearing a white robe on which golden cloud patterns were made. Near him were a bamboo hat and a staff with Yin-Yang sign as its top part.
~Why haven\'t Dobby and Ragnarok come out Yet?~ he asked himself.
He looked into Phixheim for them. "Olivia, where are Dobby and Ragnarok?"
"I don\'t know, I haven\'t seen them in a while." She answered.
"YAYA..." Yalo came up to him tippy-toed.
"Haha, how are you, son. Let\'s go, we will go on our adventure this time." He said and put him on his shoulder.
"Oh, hey, old man. Mind if I join you? I got nothing to do in here?" Douglas asked him.
"Well, you have been training hard all this time, I think you deserve a small gap. Okay, come along and bring Hats too. It\'s time I teach him how to work correctly, he\'s a living walking box of uncertainty." Alexander said.
Douglas happily went to find the fat cat. Alexander meanwhile took out his phone to check what kind of past he had in this world.
He opened the message and saw the memory.
[Memory Starts]
Alexander found himself in front of 9 weird animals. They were all huge and yet looked like babies.
"G-chan, come play with us." The cute chubby fox with 9 tails shouted at him.
Alexander already knew their names. He had found them wandering in the forest when he appeared on the planet. They were initially wary of him but after his continuous show of some love and care, they got too attached to him.
Alexander smiled at them, "Haha, okay Kurama-chan. Let\'s play tag."
Alexander went ahead and played with all the tailed beasts. They had told Alexander that their old man had gone and had told them to be good kids and maintain peace in the world. But they were too small right now and just wanted to play and have fun.
Alexander stayed with the beasts for a long time while exploring the world. He couldn\'t find many humans there, it seemed like civilization was still in its initial stage.
But from what the tailed beasts said, their creator was not from the planet. Their creator was also the ones who started something called ninshu. It was the use of chakras to perform unimaginable feats.
Alexander already had an idea of what the chakra was. It was like the Force in Star Wars. But in this case, the Force was only limited to the planet and nearby space.
It was called Chakra and was in many ways different from the Force. It was a lot more complex, though there was no Dark and Light side crap, however, his knowledge was limited so he wouldn\'t bet on there not being something about two fated sides meant to fight.
The biology of people was different on the planet. Chakra flowed through people\'s veins. Some had more, some had less. Those with a decent amount can become something called a shinobi and those with not a lot stay civilians.
There were no countries as of the moment and only loosely tied villages. The tailed beasts also told him that they had their places to live in 9 different temples spread around the world. Though they said they don\'t like living there as they feel lonely.
They had also tried befriending humans but nobody played with them and only attacked.
Alexander felt very bad for the big cuties. So, for the next few hundred years, he lived with them while watching how the world changes. He would rarely go among the people and help here and there. Little by little, he became a sort of legend and they dubbed him, Sage of Beasts.
But he still had the thought about there being life in the space.
So, once the tailed beasts got big enough to take care of themselves, he decided to go to space and find where Sage Hagoromo Otsutsuki came from.
"Okay, as long as you stay together no one can hurt you. Together you are strong, you are a family, never forget this, okay? I will return soon." He instructed the tailed beasts and left.
His journey went on for many many years. He did find some alien life in places far far away from where he came from. But he was still not able to find the ones he was looking for.
So, he decided to return and just have some fun with all the beasties.
But when he returned, he couldn\'t find them and the world had also changed a lot, now divided into various factions, countries and already 2 big wars under their belts. The place he used to live with the beasts in the jungle now had a huge abandoned shrine with his statue too.
[Memory Ends]
...
*Sigh*
~I have no idea where I am or where I should find Kurama and everyone else. I hope they are fine~ he thought. He understood that if he was really here in the past physically and not just as a memory then he could have done many things differently.
But the memories were just so his identity could be integrated into the world, so he had no control over what happened in the past.
Soon a fat cat with a huge bag on its back came to him. Its huge wide grin really takes away all the cuteness his shape brings. But Alexander knew Hats was not bad in the heart.
"What\'s in the bag, Hats?" Alexander asked.
"Oh, there is food and drinks. Douglas said we are going on a secret mission." Hats answered.
"Douglas was messing with you, we are just going on an adventure and just look around for a few sentient beasts I know. You don\'t need the bag, we can come and go to Phixheim whenever we want." Alexander clarified.
Then suddenly Berry flew in with a huge backpack too. Alexander sighed.
"Berry, come with me, we got an angel to beat." Hats took Berry to find Douglas.
...
Fire Country, Konohagakure aka Hidden Leaf Village
"What is this I am hearing about the disturbance in the forests near Tanzaku Town?" Hiruzen Sarutobi, the current Hokage of Konoha asked Elder Koharu Utatane, one of the three members of the Konoha Council.
"Oh, ignore this, it\'s just myths and tales. There is a big abandoned shrine dedicated to some ancient sage called Sage of Beasts who in the legends was the only known man to befriend all the tailed beasts. But it\'s all a myth. People are just making up stories after sighting some animal." She shruggingly said in her weak old voice.
Sarutobi straightened his back in his seat, "It has just been 3 years since the end of the Second great shinobi war. We can\'t take any chances. If it is a big shrine then there could be many people hiding inside it.
"Sakumo Hatake is headed to Kusagakure(Hidden grass village). Let\'s inform him to check on the shrine. Skirmishes have already started along the border between the Land of Fire and Land of Grass. Reports indicate there are Iwagakure shinobi hiding amongst them. Iwagakure has lost too much in the previous wars and I am afraid another war is in the way."
All the council members nodded at his words and agreed on his decision.
