Naruto: Talent entry, starting with Otsutsuki bloodline

Chapter 116 Taking Artistic Photos Again, Air Raid on Amegakure Village

January 61, Konoha 1.

Suddenly, an invisible barrier rose in Izayoi's new home, preventing all outsiders from entering and isolating her from all senses.

Click! Click...

"Izayoi-kun, is it alright now?"

On the edge of the traditional building, the sound of camera shutters being pressed kept ringing out, mixed with the shy voices of young girls.

"Wait a minute, Hinata, just bear with it a little longer, I'll try a different angle... *slurp*"

Izayoi shouted excitedly, and at the end, there seemed to be a sound of her spitting out saliva.

There's no way around it, Hinata is just too tempting right now.

At this moment, Hinata was wearing a sheer, transparent long dress that Izayoi had specially tailored for her. The top was a white short-sleeved shirt, and the bottom was a light blue split-leg skirt, which not only showed off her figure perfectly but also gave off a hazy, alluring beauty.

Moreover, Hinata's current pose is a devastating blow to Izayoi, with tremendous destructive power.

Hinata braced herself on the ground with both hands, in a handstand position, her feet forming a bow and arrow nocked, looking up at the front, a red arrow dangling from her cherry-red lips.

Indeed, Hinata was tricked by Izayoi again and had her portrait taken.

She was originally practicing archery here in her shrine maiden outfit when Izayoi suddenly appeared out of nowhere and took pictures of her with a camera.

"Fine, let's take the pictures." As they were taking pictures, Hinata somehow agreed to Izayoi's request and changed into this outfit, which, although not revealing, was even more embarrassing than Pikachu and Squirtle T-shirts. She was then directed by Izayoi to strike poses that made her brain flush faster.

"……alright!"

After an unknown amount of time, Hinata finally heard a sigh of relief. She quickly put her feet down and was about to go inside to change her clothes.

"Hinata, wait..."

At that moment, Izayoi suddenly called out to Hinata, then took out a sword from somewhere and said with a smile, "Let's take a few more pictures. We were shooting arrows just now, now we're practicing swordsmanship."

"This is...the last time," Hinata said, her face flushed, still unable to refuse Izayoi's request.

"it is good."

Immediately, Hinata began to wield her longsword in the garden, and at Izayoi's request, she tried her best to calm herself down, adopting a cold and aloof expression with sharp eyes.

If Hinata were wearing a long robe, she would look every bit the sharp, elegant young lady from a prestigious swordsmanship family.

However, this sheer, transparent long dress gave Hinata a pure yet alluring charm and a striking contrast, which Izayoi found unbearable.

Izayoi, who was frantically pressing the shutter button, suddenly regretted choosing the Tenseigan route instead of the Sharingan and Rinnegan route, which grant exclusive eye techniques.

If it's the Sharingan route, then Izayoi's current Mind Mapping Technique must be related to time and able to travel to the future.

Although the first ten years were very short, Izayoi felt that the second ten years were passing very slowly.

They shot almost another roll of film, just as Izayoi was about to finish the art photoshoot.

Hinata, who had already suppressed her shyness, suddenly created a shadow clone that snatched the camera, while her main body pulled Izayoi in for a sword duel.

Seeing Hinata offering him this perk, Izayoi naturally accepted it without hesitation.

Then he took out a sharp longsword, and during the match, Izayoi used the longsword to cut holes in Hinata's clothes, making her hazy beauty even more alluring, almost making Hinata's shadow clones so embarrassed that they exploded.

Fortunately, this wasn't Hinata's first time taking artistic photos.

Compared to the first blunder, this one was significantly better and within an acceptable range.

And now, Izayoi is her boyfriend.

When they go out shopping, Hinata no longer needs to hide their relationship. She can openly link arms with Izayoi and even share food.

It is a girlfriend's duty to satisfy her boyfriend's hobby.

Especially now that Hanabi has started school again, Karin goes to the Hokage Building every day to help out and train, and Sasuke Uchiha has become obsessed with training and going on missions to show off his strength (show off). No one is competing with him for Izayoi-kun, and Hinata is also very fond of this atmosphere.

After working up a good sweat, the two went swimming and soaked in hot springs, and then played basketball in an indoor court while wearing sportswear.

After several attempts, Izayoi showed off her skills by holding the ball with both hands to break through the tight defense, and then dunked from the free-throw line, even taking the rim off the court.

The next day, Izayoi took Hinata and dressed her in a snowman outfit, then used the Flying Thunder God Technique to teleport to the Land of Iron for skiing.

When they got tired of playing, they had a snowball fight. Izayoi gave Hinata a double glare and almost got caught off guard, getting covered in snow.

Enraged, Izayoi pounced on Hinata, and the two rolled into a snowball on the hillside, then started fighting, almost causing an avalanche.

Unfortunately, this happy life didn't last long, as Izayoi and Hinata, those lazy dogs, were punished by Tsunade.

"Izayoi-kun, Hinata, Tsunade-sensei wants you to go to the Hokage's office. Shizune-senpai has already gone to inform Shino."

Following Karin's notification, Class 8 finally reunited after more than two months.

Seeing that Izayoi and Hinata were no longer wearing their green vests and had lost all their ninja aura, Shino Aburame couldn't help but say sarcastically, "I thought you guys had retired."

Since Tsunade succeeded as the Fifth Hokage, the other teams have been carrying out missions like crazy.

It was a rare coincidence that everyone had time, so when the guys came over to Izayoi's house for a meal, they also shared their mission experiences.

The Seventh Team's experience was the most exciting. They not only encountered a rogue ninja wielding the Thunder God Sword in the Land of Tea, but also helped Kazahana Koyuki, who was ostensibly a female celebrity named Fujiyama Yukie but was actually the princess of the Land of Snow, to reclaim her country.

Although the mission experiences of Team 6 and Team 10 were not as exciting as those of Team 7, they still encountered bandits, roaming ninjas, and even ninjas from small ninja villages, adding several C-rank and B-rank mission achievements to their resumes.

In contrast, Class 8 has not made any progress since adding two C-level missions and one A-level mission in October.

After staying at home for more than two months, Shino Aburame almost thought she had retired at a young age.

Or perhaps... those two actually forgot about themselves and secretly used their Chunin privileges to carry out a mission?
Shino Aburame succumbed to himself more than once; in fact, it wouldn't matter if Aburame became Inuzuka.

He really wanted to carry out the mission!
As if sensing Shino Aburame's resentment, Izayoi and Hinata couldn't help but smile awkwardly, realizing they were indeed a little sorry for Shino.

Izayoi patted his chest and assured him, "Don't worry, Shino, I'll definitely help you get enough battle points so you can participate in the Chunin Exams in the first half of the year."

Even if I get lazy, I can just play two roles like during my fetal development period, letting my wooden clone take the place of myself and Hinata, and lead Shino Aburame on missions.

Given the realism of the wooden clone, Shino Aburame would definitely not know it's a wooden clone, so she wouldn't be sad.

"I hope so." Shino Aburame had already given up hope on Izayoi's promise.

After being promoted to Chunin, he thought he could switch careers and join the Anbu. Since he felt so insignificant, he figured he might as well join the Anbu and maximize his strengths.

No one knew about Shino Aburame's negativity.

After Team 8 finished talking, Tsunade said seriously, "I've summoned you all this time because I have an S-rank mission for you."

"Nani?"

Hinata and Shino Aburame were slightly taken aback. The latter couldn't help but adjust his sunglasses and said, "For a mission of this level, doesn't Kurenai-sensei need to lead the team?"

“There’s no point in having Red lead the team,” Tsunade shook her head and said. “Besides Karin, only your Team 8 is capable of completing this mission.”

Upon hearing this, Shino Aburame and Hinata immediately became serious, waiting for Tsunade to continue.

Tsunade didn't waste any words and went straight to the mission details: "According to intelligence gathered by the Anbu, Kumogakure is preparing to retaliate against Akatsuki and has already deployed troops to the Land of Rain."

"Your mission, Class 8, is to observe the movements of Kumogakure and Amegakure. Once war breaks out, compile the battle situation into an intelligence report and transmit it back in real time."

After saying that, Tsunade asked Hinata, "Hinata, do you have a summoning beast?"

"No." Hinata shook her head.

"Then you should sign a contract with Shikkotsu Forest, just like Karin did," Tsunade instructed. "When it's time to transmit information, use the Summoning Jutsu and give the scroll to the Slug Sage. The Slug Sage will then immediately deliver the scroll to me."

"Yes!" Hinata's face lit up with joy, and she nodded vigorously.

Hinata was immediately pulled away by Karin, who had a big smile on her face, and made a contract with Shikkotsu-rin.

Tsunade, with a serious expression, instructed Izayoi: "You must hide yourselves well. If you are discovered, I will allow you to abandon the mission."

Although Izayoi possesses Wood Release and has created her own unique secret techniques and flying ninjutsu, she is fully capable of threatening the Five Kage.

However, just like everyone else, Tsunade also believed that Izayoi had not yet grown up.

After all, humans only begin to reach their peak after reaching adulthood.

Before adulthood, we are in the growth period.

Even after Shippuden ended, Naruto and Sasuke's strength continued to grow.

At the age of nineteen, even without Six Paths Sage Mode, Yin-Yang Release, or Truth-Seeking Balls, and even if Naruto released half of the Nine-Tails into his body to fight the Hamura statue, he still defeated Toneri Otsutsuki.

Uchiha Sasuke was so powerful that he shattered half a meteorite with just one move, Chidori.

It wasn't until Boruto that he and Sasuke Uchiha became men with kidney deficiency.

Tsunade's refusal to agree to attack Akatsuki was also partly due to her desire to protect Izayoi.

If we can delay for a few years until Izayoi grows up, Konoha will have a combat power beyond expectations.

Even if the opponent is the Eye of the Immortal, they still have a fighting chance.

If it weren't for Hinata's Byakugan farsightedness, which had already surpassed the limits of the Hyuga clan, and the crucial importance of information regarding Kumogakure and Akatsuki, Tsunade really wouldn't want Team 8 to do something so dangerous.

"Yes, Hokage-sama."

Izayoi nodded with a serious expression.

"Go."

Tsunade waved her hand.

After receiving the pre-arranged exit permit from Shizune, Team 8 quickly left the Hokage Building, then used Teleportation to go home, pack their belongings, gather at the village entrance, and head to the Land of Rain.

……

Amegakure Village, today is not Sunday, but it is an unusually sunny day.

The villagers, having received the angel's message, have already taken refuge in the underground shelter.

Now, the once vast Amegakure is left with only a dozen or so figures, all members of the Akatsuki organization, each a Kage-level powerhouse.

Even the most powerful ninja villages would tremble at the sight of this lineup.

Aside from the 'intern' Tobi and the Black and White Zetsu, as well as Konan and the Five Paths of Pain who rarely appear, the others, led by Pain the Deva Path, are all S-rank rogue ninjas and dangerous individuals from their respective ninja villages.

Itachi Uchiha, who wiped out his own clan at the age of thirteen, turning the most powerful clan in the ninja world into dust in history.

Kisame Hoshigaki, one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, is known as the "Tailless Tailed Beast".

Kakuzu, formerly the strongest man in Takigakure, is now a famous bounty hunter in the black market.

Sasori of the Red Sand, who once destroyed a small country, now has a bounty that surpasses even the 'Wood Release Ninja' and ranks second on the black market.

Pain, the leader of the Akatsuki, who destroyed the Hidden Cloud Village with a single move, shattered the bottom line of the ninja world, and became the only Akatsuki leader with a bounty exceeding one billion.

There's also Hidan and Deidara, whose intelligence hasn't been revealed yet.

At this moment, all the Akatsuki members were gathered on the rooftop where Pain often watched the rain, gazing at the rare clear sky.

"It's coming..."

The White Zetsu, one of the Black and White Zetsu, suddenly grinned and said, "There are two."

As if in response to his words, two enormous black spheres appeared out of thin air above Amegakure, far apart, one in the south and the other in the north.

Pain, with an unchanging expression, rose into the air.

At the same time, a shout rang out from a corner of Amegakure.

"Psychic art!"

With a loud bang, the Hungry Ghost Path on the rooftop instantly turned into a cloud of smoke and disappeared, reappearing below the Tailed Beast Ball in the south.

"Shinra Tenzheng!"

As a majestic voice rang out, a terrifying repulsive storm instantly transformed into a green curtain that shot into the sky.

The Tailed Beast Balls covered by the green screen disappeared at a visible speed, as if erased by an eraser.
