Naruto: Who made him a ninja?

“Please, Minister Shūzawa!”

...

Looking at Kakashi's sincere face, then at Yūgao who was secretly laughing, and Tenzo who was still a bit bewildered.

For a moment, Shūzawa felt his fists hardening.

This bastard Kakashi, is he treating me like a jinx?

Although Kakashi was a bit 'impolite,' Shūzawa didn't bother to argue with him too much.

After all, the other people he invited had also arrived one by one.

Shūzawa basically knew the people Kakashi invited, or rather, he was quite familiar with them.

For example, Might Guy, the man whose taijutsu skills were praised by Uchiha Madara as 'In taijutsu, I would call you the strongest.'

Although he seemed a bit silly, he was actually a good person, a bit like Jiraiya in that he was quick to become familiar with people. Shūzawa quickly became acquainted with him.

Besides him, there was also Umino Iruka, Kurenai, Anko, Ebisu, Shiranui Genma, and of course, Hayate Gekkō.

Shūzawa had memories of these people, and they were all well-known figures.

Actually, strictly speaking, many of them were younger than Kakashi, but because of the war, they had all joined the war.

And they all survived. Plus, the age difference wasn't that big, so they could barely be classified as 'same generation'.

Everyone had a great time that day, especially when they found out that Kakashi was going to leave the Anbu, Guy was extremely excited.

However, Shūzawa did notice that Hayate Gekkō seemed to be forcing a smile.

“Seriously, it's so late already.”

Early in the morning, Yūgao complained to Shūzawa while washing up.

“You, like this every day, are really delaying me from going to work.”

“Don’t I still have a week to give you the room?”

Shūzawa hugged Yūgao from behind, not caring at all, and said with a smile in her ear.

These words immediately made Yūgao not know whether to laugh or cry. She lightly nudged Shūzawa with her elbow before saying.

“Stop fooling around, I'm going to be late soon. But speaking of which, recently, Tsunade-sensei seems to be leaving early and returning late all the time. I don't know what's going on.”

“Yeah, indeed.”

Shūzawa frowned and nodded when he heard this. Tsunade had indeed been a bit strange recently, and she hadn't even talked to him much.

“I remember she doesn't really like political affairs, but I heard she's been going to the Hokage Building all the time?”

“Yeah, she's indeed there, but I don't know much more than that.”

Yūgao nodded. As an Anbu member, she was still aware of some of Tsunade's movements, but she didn't know what the reason was.

“Could it be that the Hokage-sama is really sick? Although there hasn't been an official announcement, is he planning to retire?”

Shūzawa hugged Yūgao and pondered for a moment, then suddenly spoke subconsciously.

“Official announcement?”

Yūgao was a little confused, but she quickly realized what he meant.

“You bastard, it would be troublesome if others heard you say that. Besides, don't you know how the Hokage-sama went to the hospital?”

“That's because his ability to withstand it wasn't good enough. Didn't you see that my plan was approved later? People from the Rain Country are coming over, right?”

Shūzawa curled his lips. His words left Yūgao somewhat speechless, but she had already finished washing up at this moment.

“Alright, stop talking. Hurry up, Hikari is waiting for you downstairs.”

“Okay.”

Shūzawa nodded. He didn't make things difficult for Yūgao anymore. He was thinking about Tsunade's matter.

He had to admit that he did have the intention to deliberately provoke Hiruzen Sarutobi, but he didn't expect the effect to be a bit too good?

Of course, he wasn't very clear on the specifics yet. He had to ask Tsunade herself about some things.

“Perhaps, the Fifth Hokage is really going to take office ahead of schedule.”

Tsunade taking the stage would definitely be a good thing for him. After all, he was still flaunting the name 'Senju Clan' to deceive people.

Of course, he himself was also clear that after he used Wood Release, he would no longer be able to separate himself from the Senju Clan.

And now, he had even used 'True Several Thousand Hands'. No one in the ninja world would question his identity anymore.

Therefore, according to the current Konoha ecosystem, putting the Senju back in power was the best choice. Tsunade also couldn't be like before, just being Jiraiya's alternative.

“She has become the only choice now, right?”

Walking on the road to Root, Shūzawa muttered to himself, while Hikari on the side looked at him curiously.

“What's wrong? It's rare to see you thinking about things all the way. Did you encounter any problems?”

“Not really, I was just thinking about Tsunade-sensei. She's been a bit too busy lately.”

Shūzawa came back to his senses. He shrugged and smiled, and Hikari nodded gently.

“Indeed, and she seems a little afraid to see you. Did you do something bad to her?”

“...”

Shūzawa's mouth twitched. He casually reached out and knocked on Hikari's little head.

Hikari reacted quickly. She instantly wanted to dodge, but unfortunately, Shūzawa's speed was too much faster than hers!

Hikari was immediately a little dissatisfied after being knocked, even if Shūzawa was really gentle, but Shūzawa didn't care.

“I told you not to talk nonsense. Do you believe I'll do something bad to you first?”

“Hmph.”

Hikari snorted softly, but she was a little curious about what Shūzawa's 'bad things' would be like.

“Forget it, let's speed up.”

Looking at Hikari's unyielding appearance, Shūzawa rubbed his brow and simply reached out and grabbed her.

“Although I wanted to take a walk in the morning, I thought about it and there are more important things to do later. Let's speed up.”

“What else is there to do?”

Guang didn't mind being held by Shūzawa, after all, she had been held by this guy when she saw the Uchiha clan being destroyed before.

She was just curious about what Shūzawa would do next.

"The improvement that day strengthened my control over chakra even further. I think I can try to do some things now."

Shūzawa looked at Guang and smiled slightly.

"Besides that, your eye problem also needs to be solved, and I plan to take this opportunity to deal with it together.

Finally, I also want to tell you something. I have found your identity information, and I can just use the restoration of your memory to verify it.

Are you ready? You may soon know who you really are!"

"Who am I after all..."

Guang was also a little lost when she heard this. She subconsciously clenched Shūzawa's hand even tighter.

"Relax, don't worry."

Shūzawa seemed to feel the girl's nervousness, and his chakra moved slightly.

In an instant, they had already arrived at the Root's base, and he softly comforted her.

"I promised you, and I will do it. Besides, haven't you always wanted to know these things?"

Guang didn't speak immediately, as if she hadn't recovered yet. After a while, she slowly raised her head.

"What if I am really a heinous person?"

"Haven't you already asked this question before?"

Shūzawa blinked, and then said helplessly.

"Then I can only lock you by my side. Besides, the you of the past is not the you of the present.

Also, I said you are not that kind of person, you are a kind person, you know?"

"Oh, then why are you so nice to me?"

"...Why is it this kind of question again? I'm just lusting after your body!"

"Really?"

"...Didn't I say that we are friends, and now we are family, you idiot..."

"It should be okay."

Konoha, outside a medical room in Root's base, Shūzawa sat bored on a bench waiting for the changes inside.

He had already done what he promised Guang, and now he had to see what the result would be.

Restoring memories is not difficult, but it is not simple either. What Shūzawa can do is to stimulate Guang's brain with the power of Yin Release.

As for the White Zetsu cells, Shūzawa used a very small dose, and he can guarantee that there will be no problems!

While waiting, Shūzawa also planned to take a good look at the gains he had obtained from Orochimaru.

[Specified ability has been adapted: Flying Thunder God adapted technique, please check]

Shūzawa's [Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion] has been completely upgraded with the appearance of [Yin-Yang Release].

Although it was somewhat wasteful to use Danzo's talent, Shūzawa didn't think there was any problem.

Moreover, Danzo's talent also allowed him to gain a good understanding of the combination of Yin Release and Yang Release, which is why he was able to complete [Yin-Yang Release] so smoothly through Ōnoki's talent.

Since there is no need to worry about the 'ultimate move' of Yin-Yang Release, then he naturally needs to pay close attention to the 'ultimate move' of spatial ability!

The power of space has always been the most incredible and the most powerful, and Shūzawa is unwilling to miss such power no matter what.

In the past, his Flying Thunder God was low-level, and with some of the restrictions of Flying Thunder God, he was unwilling to invest in it.

But with the addition of Obito's talent, the situation naturally changed.

To put it bluntly, if he were to take Obito's or Kakashi's Sharingan now and use it himself, he could completely achieve 'instantaneous arrival wherever the eye can see'!

But he didn't want to take the Sharingan of these two people, he had a better choice!

"Let me see, what exactly is going on?"

After carefully reviewing the information, Shūzawa's expression suddenly became a little strange.

In his mind, a special scene appeared. He saw 'himself' again, and he could almost see with his naked eyes that the space around 'himself' became a little peculiar.

"It seems like that space is completely controlled?"

Shūzawa's expression was a little subtle, and the 'himself' in the picture also moved at that moment!

Simply drawing out a short knife, in the next moment he saw 'himself' gently waving the short knife in his hand.

Almost instantly, within that special space, countless phantoms of short knives instantly completely covered the entire area!

"This is..."

Shūzawa's expression became strange. With his level of strength, he could naturally see the clues.

His seemingly simple wave of the knife instantly transmitted it to the entire space!

This also means that the entire space is refracting his attack, and one point of his attack can spread to countless points within that space!

"Such an attack mode..."

Shūzawa couldn't help but think of Minato Namikaze. He seemed to be striving for the second stage or even higher stage changes of the Flying Thunder God.

And his instantaneous killing of fifty Iwa ninja before his death can actually be regarded as the prototype of Shūzawa's move.

It's just that he needed the Flying Thunder God mark to let himself fly over at that time, while Shūzawa can be seen as letting the attack penetrate through the Flying Thunder God mark!

"Even, I don't even need the Flying Thunder God mark, the entire space is already under my control..."

Shūzawa murmured, and he suddenly realized a problem!

"If a single enemy is within my space attack range, then if I set the attack point inside his body..."

Ignore defense!
