Chapter 176 Sarutobi Hiruzen's Composite Ninjutsu (Part 1, Part 2)
Two days later, at the entrance of Konoha Village.
"I'm finally back!"
Yuhi Hong looked at the familiar scene and couldn't help but sigh.
No matter how nice it is outside, it can't compare to home, not to mention that the Kingdom of Water and the Kingdom of Sichuan are far inferior to the Kingdom of Fire.
"Do we need to register this time?"
Nohara Lin glanced at the dense crowd of ninjas behind her and couldn't help but ask.
"Need not."
Tsunade waved her hand and said.
They had come back from a victorious battle, and if they didn't carry out the registration, Hiruzen Sarutobi wouldn't say anything.
"Tsunade-sama!"
At this moment, a series of sounds sounded.
Tsunade glanced at it and secretly thought it was troublesome.
It was the ninjas who came out to greet her, and the one at the front was Hinata Hiashi.
This time, many ninjas from the Hyuga clan participated in the battle, and his appearance was quite reasonable.
But Tsunade knew there was more to him than that.
She had no way to avoid them, so she could only step forward to meet them.
Suddenly, the entrance to Konoha Village became lively.
"Lin!"
A man and a woman suddenly appeared in front of Hanekawa, Nohara Rin and Yuhi Kurenai.
"Dad! Mom!"
When Nohara Lin saw them, she suddenly smiled happily.
Hanekawa and Yuhi Kurenai knew them before, so they greeted them.
Ten minutes later, the greetings among nearly five hundred ninjas barely ended.
"Let's enter the village!"
Tsunade waved her arms and said.
After entering Konoha Village, they were greeted not only by ninjas, but also ordinary villagers, who surrounded both sides of the road.
"Tsunade-sama!"
All kinds of enthusiastic cheers sounded.
Tsunade responded with a smile.
"Huh?"
Kurenai Yuhi suddenly elbowed Hanekawa and said, "I heard your name."
Hanekawa was slightly startled, listened carefully, and soon found the source of the sound.
I saw a group of people gathered together, waving desperately to him.
Hanekawa scanned around and found that they were former students of the ninja school and patients he had treated at Konoha Hospital.
He also saw the figure of Maoyue Xiyan in it.
She was jumping up and down, shouting his name with excitement on her face.
Hanekawa waved to them, and they suddenly burst into even more enthusiastic exclamations.
"Hanekawa is really amazing. I feel like many people already know him."
Nohara Lin saw this and said in an amazed tone.
In her mind, Hanekawa has always been the target of her pursuit, or she wants to become such a powerful medical ninja.
But as the gap between the two grew wider, her emotions turned to yearning and longing.
"yes!"
Yuhi Hong said with a smile on her face.
The more famous Hanekawa is, the happier she will be, but unfortunately, her fame is not quite as good.
Except for Tsunade's status as a student, no one else might know her.
"You will be no worse in the future."
Hanekawa said with a smile.
Judging from the current situation, it will not be a problem for Nohara Rin and Yuhi Kurenai to become an elite jounin in the future.
After all, under the influence of Tsunade and Hanekawa, both of them have become epically stronger than they were in the original work.
All the way to the Hokage Building, the ninjas and villagers who came to greet him dispersed.
"Thanks everyone for your hard work, just go home!"
Tsunade looked at the nearly five hundred ninjas and said loudly, "I will explain your rewards to the Hokage on your behalf!"
"Thank you, Tsunade-sama!"
Everyone responded in unison, and then they were very excited and rushed home with their families.
They had long wanted to go home, but they didn't dare to leave without Tsunade's order.
"Let's go see the old man."
Tsunade turned and walked towards the Hokage Building.
Hanekawa and the others quickly followed.
Bang.
The door to the Hokage's office was kicked open.
Sarutobi Hiruzen had expected this time, so he was not frightened.
After all, there was such a loud cheer just now.
"This welcoming ceremony is not my arrangement."
Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled and said slowly, "It was everyone's spontaneous behavior."
He only did a small job, which was to tell Hinata and Hinata the specific time of Tsunade's return to the village.
"I'm not here to ask for punishment."
Tsunade snorted.
She only believed half of Sarutobi Hiruzen's words.
"For being able to defeat Kirigakure Village, your ninja team deserves the greatest credit..."
Sarutobi Hiruzen had just finished speaking when he was interrupted.
"There's no need to say this again, let's just get to the point."
Tsunade waved her hand and said.
"Your personality hasn't changed at all...Okay, let's get down to business."
After being glared at, Sarutobi Hiruzen said quickly, "As for the rewards, because there are many ninjas involved, we will give them out in a few days."
Tsunade nodded slightly to express her understanding.
With nearly five hundred ninjas, it is a very troublesome matter to reward them based on their merits, and it is impossible to get the results on the same day.
In addition to awards, there are also pensions.
Although this time it was a great victory over Kirigakure, many ninjas still died.
Their funerals and family pensions are also the responsibility of Konoha Village.
"You don't have to worry about other rewards, but you should give Hanekawa's reward now."
Tsunade glanced at Hanekawa and said.
"Oh? What reward does Hanekawa want?"
Sarutobi Hiruzen asked with a smile.
Hanekawa is undoubtedly the major contributor to the defeat of Kirigakure Village this time.
If he hadn't discovered the headquarters of the Hidden Mist Village, the war would have ended in no time.
In addition, the strength displayed by Hanekawa surprised Sarutobi Hiruzen.
After all, he killed Kurisan Kushimaru, one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, alone.
This means that he truly has the strength of a jonin.
Thinking of Hanekawa's age and his identity as a Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't help but want to laugh.
He is Tsunade's teacher, and in a sense, his reputation will also rise with it.
Of course, Sarutobi Hiruzen no longer cares about this little reputation. He values the future of Konoha Village.
"Hokage."
Hekawa did not refuse, and said bluntly, "I want a composite ninjutsu."
"Compound ninjutsu is very difficult, and you must be familiar with many kinds of escape techniques before you can learn it."
Sarutobi Hiruzen raised his eyebrows and said.
"This is for you."
Tsunade threw him a scroll and said, "The process of Hanekawa defeating Kurisan Kushimaru."
Sarutobi Hiruzen opened the scroll, read it, and soon showed a surprised expression.
Although it was just some text description, with his strength, he could naturally infer the specific battle situation.
"What a pity."
Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed and said, "If I were 20 years younger, I would definitely accept you as my apprentice."
His three students, Jiraiya, Tsunade and Orochimaru, were undoubtedly very powerful.
However, they did not inherit his true mantle, that is, the summoning beast Monkey Demon and his five-element composite ninjutsu.
The reason is that they don't need it.
Tsunade is a medical ninja.
Jiraiya, after obtaining the inheritance of Myoboku Mountain, his focus shifted to the fairy art.
Orochimaru, who has the best ninjutsu talent, should have inherited his mantle, but after the death of Rope Tree, his personality changed and he was obsessed with experiments all day long.
What they have in common is that they are all contractors of the three sacred places of summoning beasts and do not need the summoning beast Monkey Demon.
And Hanekawa's performance made Sarutobi Hiruzen feel that he was born to inherit his mantle.
"Impossible!"
Tsunade refused without hesitation, "Even if you were 20 years younger, Hanekawa would still be my apprentice!"
"I just thought about it, I don't really plan to accept you as my apprentice."
Sarutobi Hiruzen coughed lightly and said.
"You can't even think about it!"
Tsunade said very domineeringly.
"It seems that you really like this apprentice."
Please...collect 6...books...!
Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled when he heard it.
"So much nonsense, give it to him quickly!"
Tsunade's heart jumped, and she said a little annoyed.
Why does he look like he has hit the nail on the head?
Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head, and without thinking much, he took out two scrolls.
"Thank you, Hokage."
Hanekawa stepped forward and took the ninjutsu scroll.
"Compound ninjutsu is not a simple mixture of two or more ninjutsu, it is quite particular about the combination of attributes."
Sarutobi Hiruzen said with a smile, "When you are learning, if you encounter any problems, you can come to me."
"Yes."
Hanekawa nodded.
Compound ninjutsu, in his opinion, is a low-end version of bloodline limit.
Bloodline limit is the complete fusion of two attributes to form a new attribute.
But compound ninjutsu is not like that, it just uses one attribute to assist another attribute, such as the simplest wind assisting fire.
However, compound ninjutsu also has advantages, that is, it is simpler and can use more attributes.
The bloodline limit of three attributes is called bloodline elimination.
The only known bloodline elimination in the original work is Ōnoki's dust escape.
Apart from this, there is no second one, which shows that it is very difficult.
But compound ninjutsu has not only three, but even five attributes.
For example, Sarutobi Hiruzen's five escapes, the Great Linking Bullet Technique, the power is far beyond the general bloodline limit.
"Why only two?"
Tsunade asked with some dissatisfaction.
Sarutobi Hiruzen was immediately at a loss for words.
Why does he feel that he is worthless as a teacher.
Tsunade is really too good to Hanekawa.
"Two compound ninjutsu are enough for him to learn for a long time."
Sarutobi Hiruzen paused and added, "After he learns it, come to me for new compound ninjutsu."
He has always been very tolerant of geniuses.
Not to mention, this genius is from his Hokage lineage, so he can learn it at will.
Just like Namikaze Minato, he has the qualifications to learn the Flying Thunder God Technique, so he was allowed to learn it in advance.
"Thank you, Hokage."
Hekawa said quickly.
It must be said that Sarutobi Hiruzen was quite generous to him.
Of course, he knew that the main reason was his identity, Tsunade's student, from the Hokage lineage, he was his own.
If his last name was Uchiha, he might not be so generous.
"Okay, that's it."
Tsunade nodded and asked, "Anything else?"
"No for now."
Sarutobi Hiruzen suddenly thought of something and reminded, "If there is any movement in the Hidden Rock Village, you will go to support Minato at that time."
"Just notify me."
Tsunade would naturally not refuse such a thing.
Jiraiya is away, and Orochimaru is dealing with the Hidden Cloud Village, so the Hidden Rock Village can only be handed over to her.
Fortunately, there is also a Namikaze Minato who knows the Flying Thunder God Technique, so it won’t be particularly difficult to fight.
“You have worked hard for the past half month, go back and have a good rest.”
Sarutobi Hiruzen said with a smile on his face.
"Um."
Tsunade turned and left.
Hanekawa, Yuhi Kurenai and Nohara Rin greeted Sarutobi Hiruzen before following her.
They were juniors and they didn't dare to be as rude as Tsunade.
"Okay, you don't have to follow me anymore. I'll give you two days off."
Arriving at the door of the Hokage Building, Tsunade stopped and said.
"yes."
The three men answered in unison.
Hanekawa did not stay, and returned home with Yuhi Hong.
"Back?"
Kurenai Yuhi asked while cleaning.
He came back with Yuhi Kurenai and the others, but he didn't go to see Sarutobi Hiruzen, so he went home first.
There has been no one at home for half a month, and there is already some dust.
"We're here to help you!"
Yuhi Kurenai immediately went to get two brooms and handed one to Hanekawa.
The three people spent half an hour cleaning the hall and rooms.
After it was over, Hanekawa sat on the sofa and took out the two ninjutsu scrolls given by Sarutobi Hiruzen.
One is called Tulong Yanliu.
It adds fire escape to the earth escape and earth dragon bullet techniques. What is sprayed out is not mud bombs, but flame bombs.
One is called Thunder Water Dragon Bomb.
It is based on Water Release and Water Dragon Bullet Jutsu and adds Thunder Release to create an electrified water dragon.
Hanekawa thought about it for a while and decided to learn the Thunder Water Dragon Bomb first.
After all, his water escape and thunder escape are stronger than earth escape.
For Earth Release, the entry for "Earth Release Special Jōnin" has not yet been obtained, so the power will be slightly lower.
But the progress bar has exceeded 70%, and it will be full in one or two months.
In addition to Earth Release, there is also Wind Release, but he did not obtain the entry for "Wind Release Special Jonin".
Its progress bar is a little slower, just reaching 50%.
Hanekawa has learned too many ninjutsu, so it's normal to be slow.
He has not learned the Thunder Release Chakra Mode or the Hundred Heroes Jutsu, and now he has to learn compound ninjutsu.
But it doesn't matter, he is still young and has more time.
Speaking of time, Hanekawa recalled the plot about the Third Ninja War in the original work.
After the death of the seven Ninja Swordsmen in Kirigakure Village, they did not give up completely. They will probably attack Konoha again next year, and there will also be three-tailed Jinchuuriki.
It's just that this time they were unlucky, meeting Uchiha Madara and being controlled.
No, that's not right, Nohara Rin was the unlucky one.
Hanekawa remembered that Uchiha Obito's opening of his eyes was divided into two things.
The first one was the attack on Konoha Village by Iwagakure Village, which was the Battle of Kannabi Bridge.
During this raid, Uchiha Obito was injured and disappeared, but was rescued by Uchiha Madara.
As for Iwagakure Village, their real goal is Kumogakure Village.
After all, they took out 10,000 ninjas to attack Kumogakure Village, but on the Konoha Village side, there were only 1,000 ninjas.
The second thing was that Uchiha Madara, the ninja who controlled Kirigakure Village, implanted the three tails in Nohara Lin's body.
Uchiha Obito went to rescue her, and when he saw her death, he opened his Mangekyō Sharingan angrily and started killing her.
I don’t know exactly when it will be next year.
Hanekawa shook his head.
The situation is different now, not necessarily next year, maybe this year.
No matter what, you should seize the time now to continue practicing and strengthening.
In addition to Hanekawa, there are also Yuhi Kurenai and Nohara Rin.
Especially the latter.
If she learns the art of spiritualization, even if she is caught, she can leave her body and notify them.
Of course, this is the worst case scenario.
