Chapter 47 No talent? Then use cheats!
October 13th, afternoon.
After nearly a month, Gojo Yoru finally returned to Konoha.
Along the way, neither he nor Orochimaru encountered any attacks.
This means that when Gojo Yoru killed Tokiya, there were no White Zetsu clones spying on him, which was good news for Gojo Yoru.
Upon entering the village, Orochimaru said to Gojo Yoru, "You've worked hard these past few days. Go back and get some rest. We'll meet at the usual place in a week, and I'll give you your mission reward then."
"Okay, then I'll head back now, Orochimaru-sensei."
Gojou nodded, then parted ways with Orochimaru.
"……Come in."
Orochimaru arrived alone at the Hokage's office and knocked on the door.
Upon hearing Hiruzen Sarutobi's voice, he immediately pushed open the door and entered.
Upon seeing his most prized disciple return, Hiruzen Sarutobi narrowed his eyes and asked, "How was it?"
"I suggest strengthening border defenses," Orochimaru said in a deep voice. "If nothing unexpected happens, friction between small and large countries will intensify again, and our Land of Fire will surely be drawn into it once more, just like before."
"What did you find out?"
Just as Hiruzen Sarutobi was about to light his pipe, Orochimaru's next words caused his expression to change drastically.
"Hanzo has made his move against the Land of Iron!"
Hiruzen Sarutobi asked gravely, "The Hidden Rain Village has gone to war with the Land of Iron?"
"If that were the case, the news would have spread throughout the ninja world long ago," Orochimaru said. "According to the intelligence from my informants, Hanzo went to the Land of Iron alone. I verified this in Amegakure; this important figure is indeed no longer in the village."
Hiruzen Sarutobi didn't speak, but silently lit his pipe and took a puff.
His gaze, hidden beneath the smoke, was deep and unfathomable; it was impossible to tell what he was thinking.
After a long silence, he slowly spoke, "Orochimaru, are you worried that Amegakure and the Land of Iron will unite?"
"We can't rule out that possibility. After all, that person's strength is enough to take on an entire country single-handedly, and he makes no attempt to hide his ambitions." Orochimaru said with a somewhat grim expression, "If the Land of Rain and the Land of Iron unite, I'm worried that other smaller countries will follow suit and use this to rebel against us, the great powers."
After all, the exploitation they've faced by those major powers over the years has been excessive.
If these small countries form an alliance, a war even larger than the First Shinobi World War will inevitably break out.
Seeing Orochimaru pinpoint the seriousness of the situation, a hint of appreciation flashed in Hiruzen Sarutobi's eyes as he slowly said, "Your concerns are valid, but it's not quite that serious yet. Those small countries are too far apart, making an alliance virtually impossible."
"Right now, the only countries worth being wary of are the Land of Rain and the Land of Iron. If these two countries unite, that place will no longer be the border of three great powers, but will give rise to a fourth great power."
"I will report all the intelligence and suggestions you have gathered to the Daimyo, so that he can increase military spending and strengthen border defenses. At the same time, I will warn the other two great powers that we must not take the initiative to attack."
After saying that, Hiruzen Sarutobi stopped talking about it and instead smiled at Orochimaru, asking, "You did a great job on this S-rank mission. How did Yoru do?"
Upon hearing this, Orochimaru couldn't help but smile and said, "Your performance can only be described as perfect."
"Such a high evaluation?" Hiruzen Sarutobi was somewhat surprised, then laughed, "It seems you've been through quite a lot lately."
Orochimaru smiled without saying a word.
He wasn't a show-off. If it were Jiraiya, even if he agreed to keep Gojo Yoru's secret, his micro-expressions would definitely give him away.
Orochimaru, on the other hand, is someone who can keep secrets. He believes that even if Sarutobi-sensei finds out later, he won't blame him.
After all, the spacetime bloodline is truly astonishing.
Once it grows up, its strategic deterrent will be even greater than that of the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki.
Hiruzen Sarutobi had no idea that his most obedient disciple was hiding a huge secret from him.
Seeing that Orochimaru was very satisfied with Gojo Yoru's performance, he couldn't help but ask, "Did you give him the scroll for the Flying Thunder God Technique?"
"Yes, I've already given it to him." Orochimaru nodded.
Hiruzen Sarutobi's eyes immediately lit up with anticipation as he asked, "So, does he have the talent?"
"I don't know yet, he hasn't seen it." Orochimaru shook his head and said, but a faint smile remained on his face.
If even Gojo Yoru doesn't have this talent, then there really isn't another person in the entire ninja world who can learn the Flying Thunder God Technique.
……
It was nearly dusk when I returned.
After Gojo finished eating and taking a shower, washing away his fatigue, night had already fallen outside.
Sitting cross-legged on the long-missed soft bed, Gojo Yoru finally took out the independent scroll of the Flying Thunder God Technique once again and slowly unrolled it.
Although the scroll is small, it contains a lot of information.
The opening scene features the Flying Thunder God Technique, which has stumped countless geniuses.
The Flying Thunder God Technique has the feel of a sealing technique, but it has no destructive power.
Just like the principle of a storage scroll, it uses sealing techniques to mobilize invisible spacetime forces to create a special alternate dimension.
The Flying Thunder God Technique also uses a sealing technique to transform the power of space and time into a mark, which is then attached to people and objects.
Because it is a product of the fusion of unreasonable sealing techniques and the power of space and time, the mark of the Flying Thunder God Technique cannot be erased by conventional means.
Even if the practitioner dies, all the spells they left behind will not disappear.
Once the Flying Thunder God Technique formula is successfully condensed, it means that one can sense the invisible power of space and time and is qualified to cultivate the Flying Thunder God Technique.
This very beginning shut out countless geniuses.
In addition to the Flying Thunder God Technique, there are also the Flying Thunder God Slash and the Flying Thunder God Guided Lightning, both of which have annotations by Tobirama Senju.
The sheer power of this S-rank ninjutsu, as well as Tobirama Senju's unparalleled talent, can be felt through the textual description alone.
"Hehe, they're not even in the same league," Gojo Yoru couldn't help but laugh.
Over the years, Gojo Yoru has been researching and developing teleportation and ultra-long-range teleportation.
As a result, not only was long-range teleportation impossible, but even short-range teleportation was completely unsolved.
Tobirama Senju, who lacked a space-time bloodline limit, mastered this ultra-long-range teleportation through his own talent, making the difference between the two talents seem like heaven and earth.
"With my current talent, I have absolutely no chance of learning this technique."
Despite saying this, Gojo Yoru's smile remained unchanged.
Even with the talent enhanced by the first evolution, it's true that I can't learn this super S-rank ninjutsu.
Using ordinary chakra to perform sealing techniques, and then sensing the invisible space-time, and perfectly merging the two to form a mark—what kind of magatama is that? My eyes and brain can understand it, but my hands can't.
However, Gojo Yoru has no shortage of talent in sealing techniques and the power of space-time.
His spacetime chakra allows him to skip all steps.
If you lack talent, then use cheat codes!
