Konoha's Destiny Twins

"I finally got the Chidori," Qing Shui said with emotion. He had been waiting for this technique for a long time.

Now he holds a powerful thunder escape ninjutsu, which makes him even more powerful on the offensive end.

It's just a pity that Rasengan may never have the opportunity to learn it in this life.

During the Second Ninja War, Shimizu took the opportunity to explain the Rasengan's attack philosophy to Namikaze Suikaze, the future famous Golden Flash Fourth Hokage, who was of the same age.

But the other party didn't catch a cold at all.

It wasn't until an accidental opportunity later that Minato was inspired by the tailed beast jade, and he immediately began to independently develop the Rasengan. Then he successfully developed the technique in a short period of time.

Nima's

As a time traveler, Qingshui did not provide any specific feasible research and development plans from beginning to end, but only explained the basic principles and manifestations.

Of course he couldn't provide it. Firstly, who watches anime and remembers how ninjutsu was developed? Secondly, after so many years, the memory of this aspect has faded.

The blame is that he didn't have the time and ability to develop ninjutsu independently.

So after Minato developed this ninjutsu, he gave Shimizu a certain amount of remuneration as a reward.

But Qing Shui felt cold as she held the money.Because this also means that it is impossible for him to learn the Rasengan.

In the world of Naruto, the learning of ninjutsu, especially some powerful specific ninjutsu, is impossible to teach if it is not taught by someone from the same sect or an immediate family member.

This is actually easy to understand. If everyone in Konoha Village knows Rasengan, then the next day all ninjas in the Naruto world will know Rasengan, which is as bad as the three-skin jutsu.

It is normal for all rulers to monopolize resources for the sake of the stability of the ruling class.What's more, A-level attack Muji Ninjutsu like the Rasengan is of epoch-making significance.

The reason why Kakashi was able to share Chidori's seals and principles with him was that Kakashi was young and April was the senior who saved his life; the other was that Shimizu really worked hard to get his own independent development Ninjutsu ability, so he really studied and thought hard.

Instead of waiting for Minato to develop the Rasengan like before and then take advantage.Such naivety and stupidity, once is enough.

Because it turned out that he couldn't pick it up.Since you can't pick it up, if you want to learn this ninjutsu, you can only use your own brain and hands-on skills and really participate in it.

The development of Chidori lasted for two full years, and some of the key ideas and principles in the early and middle stages were provided by him. In other words, half of the development of this technique was attributed to Shimizu.

Leaving the grove where Kakashi trained, we went straight to Hokage Rock, where the stone statue of the first, second and third generation Hokage looked down upon the earth.Qingshui overlooked the entire village. It has been 20 years. People are not like vegetation. No one can be ruthless. He has already had a sense of belonging here. He has teachers, friends, and comrades-in-arms.

I have asked myself many times, can I really watch this village suffer catastrophe? The Nine-Tails War or the Akatsuki War?

He knew some historical events, but he really couldn't remember many specific details, and the time was even vaguer. But even if he knew that Kyuubi would wreak havoc on the village after Minato became Hokage, what could he do? He could stop the man who claimed to be Madara. He can tell others directly and clearly that Madara will attack Yondaime's wife

ANBU's interrogation, even Gen's interrogation, will definitely make him shed a layer of his skin and even lead to his death.

In fact, he cannot change the trend of history because he does not have the power.He is still not strong enough. Just being a jounin in a village cannot influence a war.

Now he can't defeat those shadow-level powerful beings, let alone face Xiao.

April Qingshui, you have to become stronger

Behind him, a ninja in white clothes and black pants wearing a purple striped clown mask suddenly appeared.

The art of instantaneous body

"Senior April, Hokage-sama has something important to ask of you."

"I got it." Qingshui, who had his back to the ANBU, did not turn his head. He just waved his hand to show that he understood.

He was very familiar with the person coming behind him. He was an ANBU ninja, belonging to the first ANBU team and a guard ninja directly under the Hokage. This group of people came and went without a trace, and their teleportation skills were very impressive.

"Then I'll take my leave first." The ANBU ninja left quietly.

Qingshui took one last look at the peaceful village, recalling how long ago it was the last time the Sandaime Hokage came to him with something important. If it was just an ordinary S-level mission, the old man wouldn't describe it as something important.

It seems like something really happened. Has the gears of war begun to turn?

After a few ups and downs, Qingshui arrived at the Hokage's office.There were three of his ANBU subordinates inside. It turned out that the Hokage had also called them here. It looked like it was a team mission.The two sides met and nodded to each other.

"Qingshui is here."

"Yes, Hokage-sama."

The Sandaime Hokage, wearing a Hokage hat, smiled and nodded.

Qingshui looked at the four people opposite, including the third generation Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, and three of the four major consultants of Konoha management, Mito Kadoen, who moved to Koharu and Akimichi Kaifeng.

"Mito-senpai, transfer-senpai, Akimichi-senpai." Qingshui bowed his head respectfully and said hello.

"Yeah" x3, the three of them nodded.

The second generation Hokage Senju Tobirama once trained 6 powerful ninjas. Among the four in front of him, there was also a senior of the Uchiha clan. I remember his name was Uchiha Kagami. He was killed before Shimizu was born.The last person is the actual controller of Root, Shimura Danzo.

These people are not only the actual leaders of Konoha Village now, but also powerful ninjas who have made great contributions to the village.

Especially the Sandaime Hokage, who is still in his prime now.He is also a shadow-level expert who is proficient in five attribute ninjutsu and enjoys the title of "Ninjutsu Professor".

It takes ten or even more than 20 years to master each chakra attribute. The Hokage in front of me is actually able to master five attributes.

This is simply impossible to do without excellent talent and brains.

Even Qing Shui can only be said to be proficient in water escape until now, and he can only be considered to have some experience in fire escape and thunder escape.But, the Sandaime Hokage in front of him did it. This is definitely the talent and luck of one in ten thousand.

"April Qingshui, we have a task for you." Koharu, who was wearing pearl earrings, said seriously. Qingshui once saw a young photo of this female ninja. It must be said that time makes people grow old. When they were young, Xiaochun, who is sleeping next to me, can be regarded as a beauty.

"The mission is to investigate several locations on the border between the Land of Rain and the Land of Sichuan, because according to the descriptions of ninjas who went out to perform missions, unidentified ninjas have been sighted there several times since this year, and the most recent time there were two A small team. But there was no battle, and the opponent left very quickly. Without Byakugan, we wouldn't even know they existed," Mito Kadobu, wearing a pair of black-rimmed glasses, stated.

This means that the opponent also has quite powerful sentient ninjas, but they are not as good as Byakugan.

"So a battle is very likely to occur. We need an experienced and powerful ANBU team to carry out this task." Akimichi Tifeng, who had round cheeks and two red marks, added.

The Sandaime Hokage looked at Qingshui and said, "I want to hear your opinion."

Qingshui thought for a while and asked: "I would like to see a diagram of the locations and number of people witnessed in the past."

"Here." The Hokage pointed to a map on his desk.

Qingshui picked it up and observed it carefully for a while, and found that there were a total of 5 sightings, all located around the border between the Country of Rain and the Country of Sichuan, and the distances were very close.In the past few times, there were only one or two ninjas, so they didn't attract much attention. Until the last time Byakugan spotted two standard teams, Konoha's top management became a little sensitive, because it was not far from the border of the Land of Fire, and the journey was less than a month. Hour.

Qingshui guessed that maybe he didn't find all the ninjas in the past few times. In fact, they were all ninjas in several teams before. It was just because the strength of the perceived ninjas was not enough, so he only found one or two people. The last time it was because of a white eye, so I just discovered all the ninjas. Maybe even Byakugan didn't discover all the ninjas.

prelude to war

I was startled by this thought that suddenly came to me. I can't say this nonsense.

"The terrain there is full of mountains, rivers and waterfalls. It is sparsely populated, has no minerals and resources, and is not a major trade route. It is difficult to understand why there are so many sighting reports of unknown ninjas. Maybe they are just passing by, but If it is just a wandering ninja passing by, there is no possibility that he will be witnessed multiple times. This does not make sense in terms of probability. If our ninja can be witnessed 5 times by chance, how many others will he not encounter?"

Qingshui finally made a positive judgment: "It should be that a ninja force has been active on the border between the two countries since this year. As for the specific reason, we can only conduct an on-site investigation."

The Sandaime Hokage nodded, very satisfied with Qingshui's judgment. He said solemnly: "I have asked Danzo, and he said that he has not taken any action with the Rain Ninja Village, and the Rain Ninja Village itself is currently in turmoil. As for the Kawa Country, there is no Ninja Village at all.”

"April Qingshui" the Sandaime said loudly.

"arrive"

"You are now ordered to lead the fourth team of the fifth ANBU squadron to investigate the identity and specific situation of the unknown ninjas in the Land of Rain and the Land of Kawawa. The mission level is S for one week." The Sandaime Hokage handed a mission authorization letter to Shimizu's hand. inside.

"Yes" Qing Shui took the order and walked out of the Hokage's office along with three of his subordinates.

Qingshui and his three subordinates walked out of the Hokage's office building. He thought he was very fast, so why did his three subordinates arrive at the Hokage's office first and they were all dressed for duty?

"You are already in the Hokage's office" Qing Shui asked his question.

"Yes," the black-clothed ninja wearing a purple dog-face mask explained, "I arrived about an hour ago. The Hokage saw you discussing ninjutsu with Kakashi Hatake and didn't let the ANBU bother you. Then you left too late. Hurry, even the ANBU of the First Battalion can’t find you.”

"I see." Qing Shui knew, remembering that the Sandaime Hokage liked all kinds of voyeurism at the beginning of the plot.It seems that this bad habit was not developed in a short time, but that he is a repeat offender with considerable experience.

This bad old man

"So you're all set."

"Yes" x3, the three of them said in unison.

"How long have you brought supplies for a week?" Qingshui asked.

"About 4 days are enough for the round trip, and 3 days is enough for us to turn the place upside down. This is also Hokage-sama's consideration. So a week's worth of supplies is enough." The green clown mask ninja explained.

Qingshui opened the map, shook his head and said: "Bring two weeks of supplies and enter the mission area lightly." He pointed at three places in the Country of Fire, the Country of Rain, and the Country of Sichuan. "Here, here, and here are three places. resource points, and the rest of the supplies are placed in these three places."

The female ninja in the yellow and white fox mask said doubtfully: "Captain, you mean that we will encounter a fierce battle, so prepare a retreat in advance."

Qing Shui put away the map and said in a deep voice: "There is a high probability that you will encounter ninjas from other forces. Keep a backup plan just in case." He could not remember the specific reason or time for the third war in the ninja world. .

However, all wars have a prelude. What if this is a military action by ninjas from another country? What if this is the trigger for the third ninja war?

The place is vast and sparsely populated, and you have encountered it five times in a few months. It may not seem like much, but in terms of probability, there must be a considerable number of ninjas active for you to encounter them five times in a row.What if you encounter an entire ninja brigade? You must know that a ninja brigade is equal to 5 squads, and a standard squad has 1 people. This means that a brigade has 9 people, and there are at least 1 Jonin. to 4 people.

It's not worth losing your life here because of contempt and arrogance, so it's better to be safe.This is not persecution paranoia, this is the intuition and experience of an ANBU jounin with 243 B-level, 176 A-level, and 29 S-level mission experience.

"Prepare supplies for two weeks and prepare twice as many military ration pills and detonating charms as usual for missions. Rearrange your uniform and see you at the gate in one hour." Qingshui gave the order.

"Yes" x3

Through the glass, the Sandaime Hokage, who was standing upstairs in the Hokage's office building, saw Shimizu giving a new order, and then the four people scattered. They must have new requirements for the supplies prepared by the three.

Very cautious.

"This matter is serious, very serious. If it is not serious, it may just be an ordinary military operation by a certain ninja village. After all, we have no casualties, and the traces of their actions are not within the Land of Fire." Koharu went to bed and said doubtfully, " Hiruzen, are you a little too sensitive in judging this as an S-level mission?"

"It shouldn't be like finding nothing. I originally wanted Minato to go, but Minato hasn't come back from his mission yet. The ANBU team that April Shimizu is in is more suitable. There are reconnaissance ninjas and medical ninjas, plus April Shimizu, it's enough to deal with normal situations. There is no more suitable person in the village for the time being, and Jiraiya doesn’t know where he went.”

The Sandaime Hokage had a headache. Every time Jiraiya needed help, he couldn't find anyone.It seems that Jiraiya's habit of disappearing while playing was developed in a day or two.

But having said that, who dares to care whether Jiraiya Anbugen, one of the three ninjas, can keep up?

"Who are you?" The Sandaime Hokage had a stone in his heart.
