Naruto: From Capturing the Main Clan to Becoming the Mastermind

Chapter 35 How is the Flying Thunder God Technique used?

Back home, Hinata Yu glanced at the shadow clone studying in the study and went to his dormitory.

He took out a die from his pocket, his eyes gleaming as he looked at the top number.

A little, small.

He lost, Tsunade won.

……

"Lord Danzo, I have brought her back."

In the dimly lit room, Danzo coldly stared at a girl, with two Jonin from Root standing beside him.

"Identify the root mark on her."

"Yes!" The Jonin on the left stepped forward and, amidst the girl's terrified struggles, inscribed a curse mark on her.

"No! Lady Tsunade, save me..."

Danzo silently watched the girl's lukewarm resistance, his heart turning cold.

Hiruzen, do you really think I don't know what you've planned for Tsunade?

There's no need to bring Tsunade back because she suffers from hemophobia if you want to improve the cursed seal. You want her to break the Caged Bird Seal, don't you?

Unfortunately, this means that you've infringed on the interests of more than just me.

I hope you'll be sensible, Tsunade.

……

Two days later, at dawn, Hyuga arrived at the village entrance early, only to find two ninjas already standing there.

They were all acquaintances.

Uchiha pills, and... Kakashi Hatake.

"You've been making quite a splash lately!"

With a smirk, Yaowan said sarcastically, "Not only did you learn the Flying Thunder God Technique, but you also helped the Hokage defeat the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist. You're really amazing. Unlike me, I can only stay at home and recuperate."

Hinata Yu glanced at him a few times, then asked in confusion, "Were you jealous this morning? I smell a sour scent on your breath."

"I once heard from a medical ninja that eating vinegar in the morning can easily damage the stomach, so you should be careful about your health."

"...I'm just upset that I wasn't there to protect the Hokage!"

Take a deep breath, then another deep breath, Uchiha Yakumaru kept reminding himself: The Hokage is coming, I can't lose my composure!

"You want to fight the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist?"

Hyuga Yu shook his head, frowned as he looked at the pill, and analyzed for him, "You are good at genjutsu and fire release, but there are seven members of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, and many of them know water release. It will be difficult for you to fight them. You will be a burden to the Hokage."

Uchiha Yakumaru stared intently at him, feeling as if a string in his body had been stretched to its limit.

Meanwhile, Hyuga Yu continued his attack, saying, "Your Uchiha clan always takes winning and losing so seriously, regarding defeat as a disgrace. Why do you invite such humiliation upon yourselves?"

Kakashi, who was reading a comic book nearby, couldn't help but look up at Hinata Yu.

This conversation sounds familiar; it seems like Obito often said similar things when he was still around.

that……

Kakashi then looked at Uchiha Yakumaru, who had his head bowed.

The string... broke.

"Aaaaaah! Hinata Yu, you bastard!"

A white blade of light flashed, incredibly sharp.

Hyuga took a step back.

Clearly, Uchiha Yakumaru had a good grasp of the basics of swordsmanship; even when he attacked in a fit of rage, his strike was very steady.

But as for how much it improves the pill's own combat power... basically none.

If that's the case, why carry a knife?

While pondering the situation, Hyuga Yu kept dodging the attacks from Uchiha Yakugan.

After unleashing dozens of attacks, Uchiha Yakumaru calmed down, his eyes blazing with fire.

This time, I'll let you experience the results of my recent training.

Buzz—Buzz—Buzz

The knife in Yaowan's hand trembled slightly, and the sound made Hinata Yu frown.

A subtle chakra was eroding his spirit, but it couldn't break through his eye power defense.

So that's how it is, an illusion activated by sound?

"You're remarkable, perhaps even more talented than me! But you can't surpass the Uchiha's millennia-long legacy. This technique was created by a predecessor who didn't awaken the Sharingan, very well..."

Uchiha Yakumaru's voice grew softer and softer. Looking at Yu, who was staring at him expressionlessly, he stopped attacking and looked at the blade with incomprehension.

Is his training not up to par?

Why didn't the other party fall into the illusion?

Although he had suffered a lot recently due to his previous recklessness, he learned from his mistakes and began to study illusion magic. This sound illusion magic is an A-level illusion magic, which is extremely difficult.

In such a short period of study, he has indeed only mastered the basics, but can he not even make Hinata Yu do it in a daze?

"Yes, I know about your recent improvements. You don't need to demonstrate anymore."

Hyuga Yu walked past Uchiha Yakumaru, who had been stabbed again, and approached Kakashi. "You're Kakashi, right? We met at the Ninja Academy."

"Hello." Kakashi nodded, glancing at the dejected Uchiha Yakumaru out of the corner of his eye. "Aren't you going to comfort him?"

"He's very resilient," Hinata Yu shook his head.

"Yeah?"

Kakashi thoughtfully looked away and returned to his book. "You want to test his strength, don't you?"

"After all, he's my teammate, I need to know his current skill level."

"So that he can be rescued on the battlefield?"

"No, this makes it easier for me to use Flying Thunder God Technique to send him to an enemy of similar strength after I determine the enemy's location," Hyuga Yu said casually.

Kakashi remained silent.

This image came to mind.

On the battlefield, a Mist Ninja was surveying his surroundings when a voice came from the sky.

Your opponent has been matched.

Then, the Flying Thunder God Kunai and Uchiha Yakumaru appeared in front of each other one after the other.

And the owner of that voice was none other than Hinata Yu...

Is this how the Flying Thunder God Technique is used?

I've learned something new.

Having recovered from his depression, Uchiha Yakumaru returned to the two's side. Looking at Kakashi, who was engrossed in his book, he asked Hinata Yu with a hint of annoyance, "Are you very familiar with him?"

We lost again. We need to practice more from now on!

"I've met you, Ninja Academy."

"So he's an upperclassman? Do you know what's in the comic books he's reading?"

Uchiha Yakumaru crossed his arms behind his head, glanced at the book in Kakashi's hand, and said in a low voice, "The day before yesterday, he came to the clan's territory to inform me about today's gathering. He met a junior named Uchiha Shisui, and the two got along very well."

"I even gave Shisui a copy of that book, but the elder who was taking care of Shisui came to find me that very night, cornered me in the entryway, and demanded that I reveal Kakashi's information, threatening to break that guy's legs!"

Hinata Yu, who hadn't paid much attention at first, had a slight twitch in his expression when he heard the keywords "picture book" and "Shisui".

Kakashi gave the comic book he was reading to Shisui? He remembers Shisui was only ten years old, right?

That's what they deserve...

"Is everyone here?"

Before Uchiha Yakumaru could get the answer from Hyuga Yu, a gentle voice reached everyone's ears.

Looking in the direction of the sound, three figures gradually approached.

Minato Namikaze, Kushina Uzumaki, and a girl who was about the same height as Kakashi.

—Rin Nohara

Kakashi noticed the newcomers and returned from the world of books, looking at them with a slight frown.

"Wasn't it said that Rin would be joining Tsunade's medical class and wouldn't be on missions for the time being? And why is Kushina's wife here too?"

"Lady Tsunade didn't agree to that proposal, and besides, Rin, she..."

Without mentioning Kushina, Minato glanced at Rin helplessly.

This usually gentle girl now wore a resolute expression. "I'm sorry, Kakashi, but I want to use my own eyes to witness the arrival of peace for Obito."

"Don't worry, I'll stay at the base and operate as a medical ninja!"
