Konoha: I, Uchiha, am brimming with positive energy

Chapter 25 [Random Summoning] (Please continue reading)

"Damn it, why would a Cloud Ninja's secret technique appear on a Konoha ninja? Who leaked it from?!"

Upon hearing his subordinate's report, the Third Raikage angrily questioned him. While he wouldn't smash a table in his room in a fit of rage, he could still frighten those around him.

"I've already sent the Anbu to investigate all the Jonin who know Lightning Release Chakra Mode. I believe we'll have results soon."

After saying that, Raikage's assistant brought over a cup of tea and placed it on the table: "Please have some tea."

In Kumogakure, there are not many Kumogakure ninja who know Lightning Release Chakra Mode. This ninjutsu is not only difficult to master, but also requires loyalty. As it was a secret technique created by the Second Raikage, it gained fame throughout the ninja world in the hands of the Second and Third Raikage.

Once you've mastered this ninjutsu, you're basically a contender for the Raikage title, as long as you can become stronger than the Third Raikage's son.

Shortly after, the Cloud Ninja Anbu returned with a message: Jonin Osayi had confessed that he had lost a training scroll on Lightning Release Chakra Mode.

He had completely forgotten when he lost it, but Jonin Osayi had some impression of Uchiha Yoichi from Konoha. It seemed that about half a year ago, when Jonin Osayi was carrying out an S-rank mission, he encountered a Konoha team.

"So, that's when Osayi lost his Lightning Release Chakra Mode?"

"I don't know, but it should have been around that time, Raikage-sama. We asked the two Jonin teams that were on the mission at the time, and neither of them remembered it."

"Can't remember? Are you under an illusion?"

"I'm not entirely sure, but it's very difficult to put those two teams under genjutsu. And since they were under genjutsu, Jonin Osayi only lost a ninjutsu scroll; otherwise, the mission failed."

Upon hearing the results of the Anbu's investigation, everyone in the Raikage's office fell into deep thought and confusion.

It's highly likely that Osayi lost the Lightning Release Chakra Mode, but he definitely fell into the enemy's trap.

The future Fourth Raikage couldn't understand the convoluted situation, so he said loudly, "Father, just inform Konoha and ask them to hand over the Lightning Release Chakra Mode. Then go and kill that Uchiha ninja who has mastered the Lightning Release Chakra Mode."

The Third Raikage said in a deep voice, "Do you know how many people in Konoha have mastered our village's secret techniques? What use are they now that they want to come back?"

"No matter how many of them cultivate, they are all our enemies. Once we discover them, we will hunt them down to the bitter end, not even letting the Third Hokage escape!"

Ai shouted, "As long as we scare them into submission and let the Konoha ninja know that practicing the Cloud Ninja's secret ninjutsu means death, they will naturally dare not practice it!"

That's really simple and straightforward.

However, the Third Raikage thought this was a good idea, so he said to his son, "Okay, I approve. Seidai, go and send a message to Konoha, just like A said before; A, you and Osayi team up and kill the Uchiha ninjas who have already trained!"

"Let them know that the Cloud Ninja are not to be trifled with!"

"Yes, Father!" (Lord Raikage)

Upon receiving the order, the Cloud Village sprang into action.

In terms of military strength, Kumogakure is undoubtedly the number one of the five great ninja villages. If we disregard the threat from other ninja villages and only consider two ninja villages going head-to-head, only Iwagakure could barely put up a 4.5 to 5.5 fight against Kumogakure.

However, the Cloud Ninja has a bad reputation. Their village is almost entirely controlled by the militant faction. The Second Raikage was considered a semi-pacifist, but he only made peace because he couldn't win the war against the Second Hokage.

As a result, during the peace negotiations, the Second Raikage was killed by the village's militant faction.

Plundering secret techniques and destroying villages are old traditions of the Cloud Village. They will seize anything that is beneficial to them if they are tempted. Moreover, although there is no clear evidence, the destruction of the Land of Whirlpools may be inextricably linked to the Cloud Village.

At that time, apart from Konoha, the sealing techniques used by other ninja villages to seal the tailed beasts were very crude.

But after some time, the Hidden Cloud Village suddenly mastered the training method for perfect Jinchuriki, which really makes people wonder.

Accustomed to being domineering, even if the Third Raikage knew that the person who leaked the information to them had ill intentions, he couldn't be bothered to think about it.

Anyone who dares to show their face will be killed; that was the Third Raikage's idea.

-------------

[Random Summon]: You get a chance to summon a monster from another world every day. It may be able to destroy the world, or it may not even be able to defeat an infant. You only have 30 minutes to subdue it. If you fail to do so within the time limit, you will automatically return to the original world.

"Finally, I can speak!"

Uchiha Yoichi removed his metal mask. For nearly a month, he had been constantly trying to speak his true feelings, to the point that his chin was about to break through the metal mask.

"Let's go, Kakashi!"

Upon hearing this, Kakashi glanced at Uchiha Yoichi with a deadpan expression and asked, "Captain, your throat suddenly healed?"

Uchiha Yang waved his hand and said, "That's not important, Kakashi. You'll gain a lot by my side. I hope you won't give up when the time comes!"

"I'll do my best, Captain."

The two then continued on their journey.

Their first mission target was the Land of Grass, and it would take the two of them a day to get there.

While traveling, Uchiha Yoichi carefully studied the new ability.

It can randomly summon a strange beast, some strong and some weak, and there is even a chance to subdue it; however, according to the above description, if a strange beast capable of destroying the world is summoned, let alone subdue it, the person himself may die directly.

If you summon a weak beast, it won't be of much use even if you subdue it. You'll probably just have to see if the beast's meat tastes good.

However, when it comes to taming strange beasts, Uchiha Yoichi can only think of the contract technique from the ninja world, which is relatively convenient.

Aside from using the art of contracts, he couldn't very well subdue them by force with iron chains.

"Kakashi, where can I buy a summoning scroll? Do any ninja tool shops in Konoha sell them?"

Kakashi rolled his eyes upon hearing this and said helplessly, "These are all made by the ninjas themselves. Unless the owner of the ninja tool shop has a ninja who specializes in making these scrolls, it's still better to make them yourself if you want to capture summoning beasts."

"So, we need to learn the art of contracts?"

"That's right."

"Would you?"

Kakashi nodded and said, "If you want to learn, you'd better prepare the scrolls first. Summoning scrolls aren't difficult; the difficult part is subduing the summoning beasts."

The Contract Technique is not difficult at all. Although it is a C-rank ninjutsu like the Summoning Technique, even a genin can learn it by studying it seriously for a while.

When Uchiha Yoichi refreshed his abilities, he had already left Konoha; otherwise, he could have consulted the Second Elder and learned this ninjutsu.

Fortunately, Kakashi also knows how to do it. He has already made one and contracted it with the ninja dog he keeps at home. Although its combat power is average, it is no worse than the Inuzuka clan's ninja dogs when it comes to finding people.

Upon arriving in the Land of Grass, Uchiha Yoichi asked Kakashi to teach him the art of contract before he could complete his mission.

He is used to preparing in advance so that he won't be in a rush when needed.

I'm asking for votes. And I hope that any good brothers who see this far will give me a vote. That should be enough to keep me entertained for at least ten minutes, right?
