Becoming the Tsuchikage in the Naruto World

Chapter 265: A Good Haul

"These things were looted from the bodies of those Mist ninjas. Obito Uchiha was very emotionally unstable at the time and wasn't interested in these things, so I got lucky."

The largest portion of Ishiro's harvest this time came from the Mist ninjas.

Seeing these items, Ōnoki and the others just nodded, not paying too much attention. Ikura, on the other hand, carefully examined the ninjutsu scrolls among them, picking out the ones the village didn't have in its collection. He also marked some Water Release ninjutsu that the Mist had collected which were stronger than Iwagakure's.

Next, Ishiro took out the things he had obtained from Madara Uchiha's basement, including the Uchiha Gunbai, the swords from the Seven Swordsmen, Madara's notes, and a part of the Gedo Statue's body.

Ōnoki didn't look at the other things; the first thing he picked up was the Uchiha Gunbai. After taking a deep breath, he said, "There's no mistake. It's this thing. This thing has the ability to reflect ninjutsu. This is the weapon Madara Uchiha used in battle back then."

Hearing this, Ikura put down the scroll in his hand and also turned his gaze to the Uchiha Gunbai. He said, "Can we use this thing?"

Ōnoki shook his head and said, "I'm not sure either. We can try. It is said that Madara once used it to reflect an S-rank ninjutsu."

Then Ōnoki picked up Madara's scroll and began to read it.

Ishiro continued to take things out: "These are the things I got from Kakashi Hatake."

"Oh, right, and this," Ishiro took out another sealing scroll. "A living creature is sealed in this scroll. A magical living creature."

"It's pure white and looks like a person. I saw many of these creatures in that basement. After they are killed, they turn into a tree. Their movement speed underground is extremely fast. How to describe it? It should be even faster than the Fourth Raikage's Lightning Release Nintaijutsu."

"Most importantly, these things have very powerful concealment abilities, able to hide inside large trees. Without strong sensory talent, even if this thing is hiding right beside us, we wouldn't be able to discover it."

"If their master was Madara Uchiha, then Madara probably used these white creatures to gather intelligence on the ninja world all these years."

"However, this thing's strength is not high, at most Chunin-level. When the time comes, we can build some places completely isolated from the soil, release it, and study it carefully. I suspect this thing is related to the First Hokage's Wood Release."

Everyone nodded, didn't touch this scroll, and continued to examine Ishiro's spoils of war.

After a while, Saka suddenly exclaimed, "Look, what is this?"

Everyone, including Ishiro, focused their eyes on the scroll in Saka's hand. Because Ishiro was half-lying on the hospital bed, he couldn't see and could only be anxious. The others all gathered around to look.

After a short while, Mei cried out, "Flying Thunder God?! Is this the training method for the Flying Thunder God?"

Hearing this, Ishiro also nearly jumped up. Flying Thunder God? Where did the Flying Thunder God come from? Could it have been obtained from Kakashi?

But before Ishiro could ask, Saka said, "It's not the complete Flying Thunder God. It should be a method to test for aptitude in practicing the Flying Thunder God."

Ōnoki added, "That's a treasure too. Although this thing is not the complete training method for the Flying Thunder God, it's enough for learning space-time ninjutsu and getting started."

Ikura said, "Ishiro just said he got this from Minato Namikaze's disciple, Kakashi. That makes sense. Minato probably wanted to test if his disciple had the talent to practice the Flying Thunder God."

"Moreover, this thing contains a lot of knowledge about sealing jutsu. From its structure, it looks like an Uzumaki clan seal," Ikura said with some uncertainty.

Ōnoki's sealing jutsu was much stronger than Ikura's. He nodded in affirmation, "That's right. Minato Namikaze is indeed a genius. He is using sealing jutsu methods to explain the Flying Thunder God. But it contains not only knowledge of sealing jutsu, but also knowledge of summoning jutsu."

Saka said, "It's a pity the seven swords Ishiro got from the Mist are still being researched. Our research on summoning jutsu has not yet yielded results. Otherwise, we could try practicing it."

Ōnoki shook his head and said, "We can't learn it. The content related to space-time ninjutsu in this is actually not much; it's still far from the real Flying Thunder God. It would be great if we had a physical object for comparison. I heard that when Minato uses the Flying Thunder God, he uses a kind of kunai engraved with a jutsu formula. It would be great if we could get that thing for research."

Hearing this, Ishiro said, "Kakashi had one of Minato's Flying Thunder God kunai on him. I was afraid Minato would suddenly arrive, so I sealed the kunai and hid it. But we don't dare to take it out to study. What if Minato senses it and teleports over to kill us?"

Ōnoki nodded and said, "That's true. It's a pity we don't have the Second Hokage Tobirama Senju's Flying Thunder God marker from back then. Otherwise, we could use that for research."

Mei said, "The Second Hokage died at the hands of the Cloud ninjas. It's possible the Cloud has his Flying Thunder God marker. Can we trade for it from them?"

Ōnoki thought for a moment and said, "There's hope. If Minato Namikaze hadn't appeared in the ninja world, we definitely couldn't get it. The moment we ask, the Cloud would surely guess we want to research the Flying Thunder God. But with a Yellow Flash out there, if we then collect Tobirama Senju's Flying Thunder God marker, the Cloud will only think we are looking for a way to counter the Flying Thunder God."

"Even if it's just so that we and Konoha will injure each other, they will give it. But it's certain they'll make an exorbitant demand and make us bleed."

Mei nodded and began to calculate what price would be appropriate to exchange for the Flying Thunder God from the Cloud.

After a while, Ōnoki and the others had all finished reading the entire scroll. Only then was it the turn of Ishiro, who had been waiting anxiously on the bed.

Taking the scroll from Ikura, Ishiro immediately began to read it.

Flying Thunder God! The ninjutsu that almost all Naruto fans in his previous life looked forward to the most.

After reading a few lines, Ishiro confirmed one thing: this was indeed not the training scroll for the Flying Thunder God. However, the introduction to space-time ninjutsu inside was indeed of great value to Iwagakure. After learning the contents here, it would be impossible to cast the Flying Thunder God, but it was not without hope to develop a jutsu for teleporting objects, like the Cloud Village.

After reading it carefully, Ishiro found that Minato's description of sealing jutsu inside also had its unique points, which gave Ishiro a lot of new knowledge.

"This is good stuff. I'll make a copy for Yuran Kawazoe later. The little girl has made a contribution this time. I'll apply for an S-rank mission reward for her later."

However, apart from the sealing jutsu part, Ishiro couldn't understand the rest. He hadn't participated in the village's research on summoning jutsu, so he couldn't understand this part of the content either. As for the final part on pure space-time ninjutsu, Ishiro was even more in a fog, completely not knowing what it was talking about.

After closing the scroll, Ishiro said, "I basically don't understand this thing. Lord Tsuchikage, did you guys understand it?"

Ōnoki shook his head and said, "I don't have a talent for space-time ninjutsu either. I can't understand it either."

Ikura and the others also shook their heads, indicating they didn't understand.

Ishiro thought for a moment and said, "Lord Tsuchikage, why don't we show it to the students at the Ninja Academy? We can set a few questions to see if any of them have a talent for space-time ninjutsu."

Ōnoki nodded and said, "This time, not only the students at the Ninja Academy will be tested, but those who are already ninjas will also be tested. We know too little about space-time ninjutsu. No matter who, regardless of age and talent, as long as they have a talent in this area, they must be cultivated with top priority."

"Yes." Everyone, including Ishiro, nodded.

Saka said, "Lord Tsuchikage, it seems the research on summoning jutsu also needs to be intensified."

Previously, Iwagakure had not invested too many resources in the research of summoning jutsu. After all, the biggest purpose of the village's research was just for the Byakugan, and right now there was no risk of the Byakugan being lost, so the resources invested were not many.

But now the situation was different. Not only was space-time ninjutsu a blank area for Iwagakure, but most importantly, Konoha had produced a Yellow Flash. Even if it was just to find a way to counter the Flying Thunder God, the village had to spend a great deal on research.

Ōnoki nodded in agreement, then instructed Mei to allocate more resources to the summoning jutsu research team.

At this time, Ishiro said, "Lord Tsuchikage, the Barrier Team was a great help this time, especially my disciple, Yuran Kawazoe. She came up with the method for me to track Obito Uchiha. I would like to apply for an S-rank mission for her."

Ōnoki thought for a moment and agreed, saying, "Alright. Give Yuran Kawazoe one S-rank mission, and give all the Chunin and above ninjas in the Barrier Team a B-rank mission reward."

Ōnoki was very generous now. Setting aside other things, just the resources Ishiro had obtained from the Mist were almost enough to cover these expenses. As for the space-time ninjutsu, Madara's ninjutsu notes, a pair of Sharingan that might or might not be Mangekyō, a White Zetsu clone that could be researched for unknown things, and a section of the Ten-Tails' body—the value of these things was immeasurable.

"Alright, you should rest and recover now. Don't think about going out," Ōnoki specially instructed Ishiro at the end not to cause any more trouble. Although Ishiro often brought surprises, there were also many scares. Ōnoki was afraid that one day Ishiro would get himself killed.

This time, however, Ishiro did not agree. He thought for a moment and said, "Lord Tsuchikage, I want to continue practicing Sage Jutsu. I estimate that Sage Jutsu should be able to increase my recovery speed."

Ōnoki was stunned. Sage Jutsu had this effect? But after a slight thought, he also reacted. It seemed so. After entering Sage Mode, physical strength would be enhanced, and there would be a qualitative change in toughness. Faster recovery was also normal.

"Alright then. But you must be accompanied by Anbu when you practice Sage Jutsu. You can't just mess around on your own. And you can't leave the village until your injuries are completely healed," Ōnoki did not object, just gave a few instructions.

Ishiro nodded readily.

As soon as Ōnoki and the others left, Ishiro called for the Anbu guarding him to go and practice Sage Jutsu.
