Konoha's Clow Magician

After Kumogakure and his party left, Senju Hideki and Kakashi still stayed on the treetops, watching from a distance.

After an unknown amount of time, a strange expression flashed across Kakashi's face, and he suddenly said, "Shu, thank you!"

Thank you for letting me see the shadow of Obito in you!

Thank you for letting me see another path besides the two choices of 'companion or mission'.

Senju Hideki was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Kakashi, this is not like you."

Not like me?maybe.

Kakashi shook his head, and then said seriously, "Shu, if you encounter a task that requires sacrificing your companions to complete, what will you do?"

Senju Hideki asked, "What about you?"

The battle at Kannabi Bridge flashed through Kakashi's mind.

"I've made my choice."

"Am I not too?"

The two looked at each other, turned around and ran towards Konoha base.

……

Inside the ninja army command post in Yuno Country's Cloud Hidden Village.

The Fourth Raikage Ai sat at the head of the long table with a serious face and asked angrily, "Yukito, what you just said is true? The Nine-Tails Rebellion was really planned by the Uchiha clan, and he Are you still attacking Konoha ANBU escorts?"

Yukito nodded. As a Jinchuuriki of Kumogakure Village, she could clearly distinguish between her own ignorant emotions and the interests of the village, so she hurried to the command center before she could undo the sealing technique in a hurry. Report on what I have seen over the past few days.

"No wonder Konoha was so quick and returned you intact." Ai, the Fourth Raikage, pondered for a moment and said thoughtfully.

"Yes, I didn't even try to torture the information." Yumu Ren added, and then he was a little confused, "Sir, why did they let me bring this news back? Aren't they afraid that our village would spread it and alienate them? ?”

At this time, the one-eyed middle-aged man Dodai, who was sitting attentively at the side, interjected and sneered, "Does the relationship between the Uchiha clan and Konoha still need to be alienated? They have long been estranged from each other. If we promote it rashly, the other party may pour sewage on it. On myself. Besides..."

Dodai lowered his eyelids and said slowly, "Konoha may have told the village this news on purpose."

"The masked man wants to be an oriole, so why don't we, knowing his existence, not want to be? This will not tear up the armistice agreement just signed and give Konoha time to deal with the masked man."

Yukito suddenly realized, but a trace of worry flashed in her eyes. She didn't want to fight, especially with Konoha, and asked in a solemn voice, "Then will we do what Konoha wants?"

"Why not?"

There was a smile on Tudai's face, "This was originally a conspiracy, but after experiencing the Nine-Tails Rebellion, Konoha must have been fighting with the masked man until death, so why should our Cloud Hidden Village get involved? During this period, the village is recovering and recuperating. That’s good.”

The Fourth Raikage Ai considered it for a moment and nodded.

……

A few days later, Kumogakure calmly withdrew the ninja troops from the Country of Yu, gave up most of the reconnaissance posts here, and reduced the scope of border defense to the Country of the Moon.

Konoha did not take the opportunity to expand. It would have been possible before the Nine-Tails Rebellion. But at this time, although its strength still occupies the first place among the five major countries, it is somewhat unable to protect the three countries of wind, earth and thunder at the same time.

After re-planning Konoha's border defense in Yuno Country, Jiraiya took him on his way home, and this time there were no complications and he returned to Konoha safely.

After returning to the village, Jiraiya led Shisui's ANBU Team [-] and Kakashi's ANBU Team [-] directly to the Hokage Room, and reported to the Third Generation in detail the mission of seizing the Two-Tailed Jinchuuriki and the ANBU escorts.

After finishing speaking, he added, "Old man, the failure of Erwei's escort mission is excusable, so don't pursue it."

Hearing this, Sandai hit Jiraiya on the head with the pipe in his hand, dumbfounded, "Am I such an unreasonable person in your heart?"

Jiraiya grinned and didn't reply.

Missions are the lifeblood of ninjas. If you fail a mission, you will be punished, not to mention changing the mission without authorization. The old man has been the Hokage for so many years, so he can naturally see the threat that the masked man brings to Konoha and will not blame him for it. Senju Hideki and the others will definitely take this opportunity to take advantage of each other, but this is not what he wants to see.

Therefore, he must stop the old man's mouth before that.

Sandai noticed his disciple's thoughts and shook his head helplessly. His eyes scanned everyone, and finally his eyes rested on Senju Hideki. "These two missions are undoubtedly S-level. You have done well, Mr. Shu. As a hero of two missions, in addition to the basic money, in the name of Hokage, I will entrust you with another reward, whether it is ninjutsu or ninja tools, you can give it."

Hearing the praise of the third generation, a trace of envy flashed across the faces of Kai and others, but they were also happy for themselves. This was also the first S-level mission in their ninja career.

Senju Hideki didn't expect an unexpected gain. After thinking for a moment, he bowed and said, "Hokage-sama, can I apply to learn to fly the Thunder God?"

As the number of activated Clow cards continues to increase, he is not lacking in ninjutsu. There are all kinds of offensive, defensive, and functional ones. There will even be more and more in the future, but the ones like Flying Thunder God that are unique to the ninja world Time and space ninjutsu is not in his Clow card system.

As if he did not expect his choice, Sandai picked up his pipe, took a deep breath, and said slowly, "Shu-kun, Flying Thunder God is an S-level ninjutsu, but this is not about its power, but the difficulty of learning it. "

"Most ninjutsu and forbidden books are limited by chakra and the cost of use, but Flying Thunder God..."

Speaking of this, the third generation showed a wry smile on his face, "Flying Thunder God is limited by IQ and time and space talent. In the history of Konoha, only Tobirama-sama and Minato can use it. Even I have not learned it, so I don't recommend you to choose this Ninjutsu.”

"Sandaime-sama, after listening to your words, I have a deeper understanding of the difficulty of learning to fly the Thunder God, but I still choose it." Senju Hideki said firmly.

Seeing that his attitude was very resolute, the Sandai stopped persuading him. His eyes fell on Shisui and paused for a moment. It seemed that he was worried that there were too many irrelevant people in the Hokage room and did not ask about the special Sharingan mentioned in the mission report. Eye.

"Jiraiya, take this token and take Shu-kun to the database to get the Flying Thunder God."

Jiraiya took the token and winked at Senju Hideki, and the two of them walked towards the confidential database located underground in the Hokage Building.

Halfway through, Jiraiya reminded, "Shu, Flying Thunder God is less difficult to learn. I once heard Minato say that without extremely strong nerve reflexes, there is no way to use the power of Flying Thunder God."

Senju Hideki was also a little moved by Jiraiya's earnest words, and said respectfully, "Don't worry, Jiraiya-sama, I know it well."
