Black Naruto: Shadow Moon

After the assassination of Team Shadow Moon, Sarutobi Hiruzen felt the need to appease Uchiha Shadow Moon and make it clear that Konoha Village had taken measures to prevent similar information leaks from happening again.

Therefore, he decided to summon Yingyue in person, both to show his concern and to affirm Yingyue's performance in the crisis.

In the office of the Konoha Hokage building, Sarutobi Hiruzen sat behind a large desk, gazing deeply at Uchiha Kagezuki in front of him.

"Shadow Moon, your team performed very well in this mission. Although we experienced dangerous situations, we were able to overcome them in the end. I am shocked by your ability and strength." Sarutobi Hiruzen said slowly, his tone full of appreciation.

Uchiha Kagezuki bowed slightly and responded humbly: "Thank you for your concern, Lord Hokage. This is my duty as a Konoha ninja."

Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded and continued, "The spy who leaked the information this time has been brought to justice. I can assure you that such a thing will not happen again in the future. The safety of the village will be more strictly guaranteed."

He paused and looked at Yingyue seriously: "The strength you showed in the battle is far beyond that of ordinary elite jonin. After my careful consideration, I decided to appoint you as jonin. From today on, you are Konoha's jonin."

After that, Sarutobi Hiruzen handed a letter of appointment as a jonin to Yingyue.

This means that Yingyue not only has a higher status, but can also participate in the Jonin meetings of Konoha Village and have a certain say in the village's decision-making.

Uchiha Yingyue took the appointment letter and was secretly excited in his heart, but on the surface he still remained calm and composed.

Sarutobi Hiruzen felt even more satisfied when he saw Yingyue behave so maturely and steadily.

He smiled slightly and asked, "Kagezuki, you have made many contributions in the missions of Konoha Village. Your strength and achievements are sufficient. Now that you have become a jonin, do you have any special requests? If I can help, I will do my best to meet your request."

Uchiha Yingyue's heart moved. This was the opportunity he had been waiting for.

Ever since he learned of the existence of the Flying Thunder God Technique, he has been eager to master this powerful space-time ninjutsu.

Now, Sarutobi Hiruzen personally asked about his needs, which gave him the opportunity to make this request.

"Hokage-sama," Shadow Moon said firmly, "I hope to learn the Flying Thunder God Technique from the Book of Forbidden Techniques."

Sarutobi Hiruzen showed a hint of surprise when he heard this.

He recalled that when he was young, he had also tried to learn this art, but ultimately failed due to his lack of talent.

Flying Thunder God Jutsu is a ninjutsu created by the Second Hokage, Senju Tobirama. Since his death, this jutsu has become a unique skill that almost no one can learn.

"Flying Thunder God Technique?" Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned slightly, thought for a while, and then nodded, "Indeed, since my master, Master Senju Tobirama, created this ninjutsu, no one has been able to fully master it. Are you sure you want to learn this technique? The learning threshold of Flying Thunder God Technique is very high. If you can't learn it, you can ask me to change it for another forbidden technique in the Book of Sealing."

Uchiha Kagezuki nodded firmly: "Hokage-sama, I have made up my mind. Flying Thunder God Technique is the ninjutsu I have always longed for. I will do my best to learn it and protect the village and my companions."

Sarutobi Hiruzen felt relieved to see Yingyue's determination.

He slowly stood up, walked to a corner of the room, opened a hidden cabinet, and took out a copy scroll from it.

"Since you are so determined, I will give you the scroll of Flying Thunder God Technique." Sarutobi Hiruzen handed the scroll to Yingyue and said earnestly: "This is one of the forbidden techniques. You must use it with caution. The power of Flying Thunder God Technique is strong, but it is also very difficult to master. I hope you can learn it well."

Uchiha Yingyue took the scroll and felt a heavy force coming from his hands.

Yingyue carefully put away the scroll, then bowed deeply to Sarutobi Hiruzen: "Thank you for your trust, Hokage. I will definitely not let you down."

After talking with Sarutobi Hiruzen, Yingyue left the Hokage Building with satisfaction. This opportunity was hard-won, and learning the Flying Thunder God Technique would be a key step in increasing his strength in the future.

After the news of Uchiha Kagezuki awakening the Mangekyō Sharingan was passed back to the Uchiha clan, this shocking news quickly spread within the clan.

Uchiha Nagatsuru, the old patriarch of the Uchiha clan, who had been sitting firmly on the position of patriarch since succeeding Uchiha Madara, felt mixed emotions after hearing this.

As an older generation ninja who has experienced countless ups and downs since the founding of Konoha Village, Uchiha Nagatsuru is well aware of the importance of the Mangekyō Sharingan in the Uchiha clan.

Since Uchiha Madara left Konoha, no one in the clan has been able to awaken this legendary eye technique until the current Shadow Moon.

Chang He sat in the clan leader's room, thinking silently.

Although he led the Uchiha clan through many crises as the leader of the family, he also understood that he was too old to continue to shoulder the responsibility of the clan leader.

"Kagezuki has awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan... perhaps, he is the future of the Uchiha clan." Changhe said to himself, with a gleam of determination in his eyes.

He decided that it was time to summon Uchiha Kagezuki.

As the only member of the Uchiha clan who has awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan, Yingyue is undoubtedly the best candidate to succeed the clan leader.

But Chang He also understood that strength alone was not enough, he needed to examine Ying Yue's character to ensure that he was capable of fulfilling this important responsibility.

If Uchiha Yingyue shows enough wisdom and responsibility, Changhe will officially train him as the successor to the clan leader and give him greater support.

One evening, Uchiha Yingyue received a summons letter from the old Uchiha clan leader Changhe.

Yingyue was a little surprised, but soon realized the importance of this summons.

Uchiha Yingyue calmed himself down, headed for the Uchiha clan, and came to the clan leader's mansion.

This mansion is located in the core area of ​​the Uchiha clan, solemn and dignified.

Uchiha Yingyue paused at the door for a moment, and was then taken into Changhe's study.

In the study, Uchiha Nagatsuru sat quietly behind a low table with several ancient scrolls and books on it.

His hair has completely gray, and although his face is old, his sharp eyes still reveal an undeniable majesty.

"Yingyue, sit down." Changhe's voice was low and powerful, and it was obvious that he had not lost his majesty because of his old age.

Yingyue sat down as instructed and bowed respectfully to Changhe: "Master Patriarch, what do you want me to do?"

Uchiha Nagatsuki carefully looked at Yingyue, and after a moment of silence, he spoke: "Yingyue, I heard that you awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan in the recent battle. This ability is not only the inheritance of the Uchiha clan, but also the power on which our family depends for survival."

Uchiha Kagezuki nodded and replied calmly: "Yes, clan leader, I did awaken the Mangekyō Sharingan. This was the result of a last resort during the battle."

Uchiha Nagatsu smiled slightly and continued, "The Mangekyō Sharingan is not only a symbol of strength, but also a test of the soul. The fact that you can awaken it in times of crisis shows that your character and potential are far beyond that of ordinary people."

He paused, and his tone became more serious: "I am already old, and I will abdicate soon. I am thinking that the Uchiha clan will need a new clan leader to lead in the future. And you, Uchiha Kagezuki, are the most suitable successor at the moment."
