"Tsk tsk... Lord Second's Flying Thunder God Technique. I remember it's classified as a Super S-rank Secret Technique, just like Dan's Spirit Transformation Technique. Gojo Yoru, what an amazing kid. No wonder Minato sees him as a goal to chase."
Jiraiya played with the Flying Thunder God kunai in his hand and couldn't help but tease Orochimaru, "I thought my judgment was good enough, but I didn't expect your judgment to be even sharper than mine, Orochimaru."
Orochimaru smiled without speaking.
More than just sharper judgment, no one in the entire Ninja World had better luck than him right now.
No amount of praise would be an overestimation of Gojo Yoru.
As soon as Gojo Yoru exposed his Space-Time Kekkei Genkai, the entire Ninja World would be shaken.
The Flying Thunder God Technique, with its fixed abilities, was already a Super S-rank Ninjutsu that stumped countless geniuses.
The Space-Time Release, which could develop various abilities in the future and even be passed down to descendants, would shatter everyone's worldview.
Hatake Sakumo also played with the Flying Thunder God kunai in his hand. After pondering for a moment, he suddenly asked, "Hokage-sama, do you intend to use the Flying Thunder God Technique to link the three fronts?"
"Correct."
Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded and said, "Yoru's current age, strength, and overall qualities are not yet sufficient to lead a ninja army. My arrangement for him is to be a surprise troop linking the three fronts."
"With him, even if I am in Konoha, I can grasp battlefield intelligence in time."
"When an accident occurs on your battlefield, as long as you carry a Flying Thunder God kunai, you five, and even I, can rush over to support at the fastest speed."
"Moreover, Yoru is Orochimaru's disciple. Not only is his Earth Release outstanding, but his Body Flicker is also among the best in the Ninja World. Currently, no one in the Ninja World has intelligence on him. If necessary, he can infiltrate enemy camps to gather intelligence."
"Since he is a surprise troop, we should hide his identity even more. The longer we can hide it, the better," Shimura Danzo suggested. "Why not let him join the 'Root' I established? I will train him into the most outstanding assassin."
Hearing this, Orochimaru frowned slightly, feeling displeased in his heart.
"No, Yoru is not suitable for joining the Anbu." Sarutobi Hiruzen seemed unaware of his good friend's petty thoughts, shook his head with a smile, and said, "As a user of the Flying Thunder God Technique, the benefits of exposing him outweigh the benefits of hiding him."
"Yoru will be the benchmark for the new generation!"
Shimura Danzo's expression remained unchanged, but his heart sank again.
Just as he thought, Sarutobi Hiruzen was paving the way for Orochimaru.
With Orochimaru in the next generation, and the Flying Thunder God user and Nine-Tails Jinchuriki in the new generation, and their master-disciple relationship...
Once the Flying Thunder God user and the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki grew up, let alone him, even if the Uchiha and Hyuga united, they couldn't shake the status of these three generations of master and disciples!
Damn it, how did he discover that Gojo Hayate and Gojo Mio's child had the talent to cultivate the Flying Thunder God Technique?
At this moment, Shimura Danzo felt the gap and importance of intelligence.
...
With the end of the meeting, Konoha, the military base of the Land of Fire, finally started running again many years after the end of the First Great Ninja War.
The Senju of the Forest integrated into Konoha, along with the Uchiha and Hyuga, the three great prestigious clans, immediately recalled all clansmen.
The Ino-Shika-Cho trio representing the Yamanaka, Nara, and Akimichi clans, as well as the Inuzuka and Aburame sensing clans, and the Genjutsu-specialized Kurama clan, did the same.
The clans of the Konoha Council of Elders naturally were no exception.
As for civilian ninjas, they could only wait for orders.
Where did the gap between ninja clans and commoners manifest?
Not only in the inheritance of Kekkei Genkai and Hiden techniques but also in the autonomy to raise private soldiers and divide various departments.
Why was Jiraiya lazy, yet had to go out on missions to earn money?
Because he was just a commoner; all he could do was go out on missions.
The Senju Clan's Yang Release Chakra made them natural medical geniuses. Konoha needed them, so Tsunade could enter and leave the Konoha Hospital at will. If she wanted, the position of Hospital Director would be hers in the future.
For any position in the hospital, whoever she wanted to appoint could be appointed.
To prevent the emergence of another Uchiha Madara, and also to stabilize the Uchiha and prevent them from gaining popular support, the Second Hokage established the Konoha Military Police Force, handing over law enforcement power of the police force and prisons to the Uchiha.
The Hyuga Clan also possessed similar power.
Moreover, these prestigious clans had the privilege of training their own descendants and arranging for them to enter departments, without needing to send every newborn to the Ninja Academy.
The Intelligence Division and Torture and Interrogation Force also always had members of the Nara and Yamanaka clans.
These departments were inseparable from the Kekkei Genkai and Hiden techniques of these ninja clans.
Just like the island nation in Gojo Yoru's previous life, positions in these departments were practically hereditary.
The son of the Intelligence Division head would be the future Intelligence Division head.
The son of the Police Force head would be the future Police Force head.
The path for commoners to rise was basically blocked by them.
Without the support of a benefactor, or being strong enough to break this wall, Gojo Yoru's parents in this life were the pinnacle for commoners.
The so-called Jonin Meeting was more like an internal meeting of Konoha's higher-ups and the patriarchs of major ninja clans, with just a few "outsiders" listening in.
Unless one beat all the ninja clans into submission like the First and Second Hokage, then as Sarutobi Hiruzen said, there were only a few people he could entrust with important tasks.
"No, you are still young, you cannot participate in the war!"
"Yada (No), I am already a Genin, no longer a child who needs protection."
Inside the Senju mansion, the Princess of the Land of Fire and the "Crown Prince" of Konoha were arguing.
Tsunade put her hands on her hips, rejecting Nawaki's application to participate in the war.
Nawaki retorted with determined eyes: "I am the grandson of the First Hokage, the one bearing the glory of the Senju of the Forest. How can I hide behind others and be protected? I want to protect this village founded by Grandfather, just like Granduncle!"
Tsunade was shaken by Nawaki's gaze.
Looking at her determined brother, Tsunade finally chose to compromise and said, "You can participate in the war, but you must stay by my side."
"No, I will follow the village's arrangements." Nawaki raised his palm, condensing a blue-white energy sphere, and grinned at Tsunade: "Big Sister, don't underestimate my strength!"
Tsunade's eyes widened: "You learned the technique Kushina gave you?"
"Easy peasy. This technique isn't even as hard to learn as Chakra Burst." Nawaki looked smug, while unabashedly showing his love for the Rasengan. "The Rasengan is simply too suitable for our Senju Clan, and it's a non-elemental, hand-seal-less Ninjutsu that can be strengthened by injecting nature transformation. The guy who invented this technique is simply a genius."
Seeing that Nawaki had even learned such a hand-seal-less Ninjutsu, and thinking about the clansmen integrated into the Konoha ninja army, as well as the fact that Genin wouldn't be sent to the front lines, Tsunade finally stopped preventing him and compromised completely: "Alright then. Since you want to participate in the war so much, you are allowed to go to the border with the team."
"Really? That's great! Thank you, Big Sister!"
Nawaki cheered immediately.
Unfortunately, Gojo Yoru didn't see this scene; otherwise, he would definitely sigh again.
Some people seeking death truly couldn't be stopped!
Not participating in the war could rewrite destiny, but once participating, it was impossible even for a god to save him.
Explosive tags were explosives with invisible Chakra.
Stepping on an explosive tag and being blown up was also one of the most miserable ways to die, something even a transmigrator couldn't prevent.
Because you don't know where the explosive tags are buried, nor do you know if you'll step on one next time even if you dodge it this time.
Unless a butterfly effect occurred, even Gojo Yoru couldn't save Nawaki.
He could only wish him good luck!
Otherwise, hope he brings his talent to Konoha in his next life, instead of Kumogakure, which is full of... well, you know.
