Konoha's task master

It's already dark.

Yakumo wiped off the water stains on his body, opened the bathroom door, went to the living room and looked out through the window, and found that it was raining lightly outside.

The dark clouds swallowed up the moonlight. It must be very cold outside now, right? Suddenly Yakumo opened the window, and the cold wind gathered raindrops and fell on Yakumo's naked body. Looking at the rain that gradually became heavier, he smiled silently.

The rain came at just the right time, not only to wash away the clues left by the two men, but also to blur the tracker's senses, allowing the battlefield in the alley to be discovered later, at which time nature would cover up the truth.

Yakumo repeatedly cleaned the possible blood stains on the ninja sword, lit the cleaning cloth with fire, and then looked in the mirror and began to perform the hiding technique.

Half an hour later, Yakumo turned back into the timid boy who didn't dare to cause trouble. Sometimes being weak is really a good protective color.

After some thought, Yakumo spent all the remaining gold coins on improving water bomb ninjutsu.

Active: Water bomb perfect 330/600 "Acceleration"

The Master Breakthrough Scroll has been obtained. Within ten days, Yakumo is sure to reach the full proficiency level of water bombs and then advance to Master!

Then Yakumo took out the two scrolls he found from the corpse and a stack of Fire Nation banknotes.

Excited heart, trembling hands.

One piece, two pieces, three pieces...

Amount: 1.3 million.

Although he was not suddenly rich, at least he didn’t have to worry about the next few years. Yakumo stuffed a stack of banknotes into the secret compartment under the bed. He had already thought of an excuse for the origin of the money... His parents left it for him before they went to the battlefield.

of savings.

After hiding the money, Yakumo opened the scroll.

"Water Release: Kirigakure's Technique."

"Fire Release: Fire Dragon Flame Bullet."

Yakumo directly put away the scroll of Fire Dragon Flame Bullet. Although he was greedy, it was difficult for a clever woman to make a meal without rice. He had no fire chakra at all.

This is a B-level powerful ninjutsu. You must know that A-level ninjutsu is equivalent to a forbidden or secret technique in Konoha. Unless you make great achievements, it is almost impossible to obtain it. In other words, B-level ninjutsu is the ceiling that civilian ninjas can access.

Even Namikaze Minato is no exception. Only Flying Thunder God was exchanged for his military exploits. The rest of the techniques are basically self-created and the sealing techniques of the Uzumaki clan, as well as many low-level ninjutsu. Of course, it will be a different matter after he becomes Hokage.

When he became Hokage, he should have created a powerful ninja clan named after his normal trajectory, but unfortunately he died in the Nine-Tails Rebellion.

Another Kirigakure jutsu is a ninjutsu that almost everyone in Kirigakure must have, but it is very easy to use, but unfortunately the concentration of the mist depends on the amount of chakra.

Now he can probably only create a thin layer of mist, and there is no need to learn at the moment.

After counting the harvest, Yakumo took out his notes and continued the liver mission. While writing in the diary, he cleverly ignored the encounter with the Mist Ninja spy.

After all, although he was forced by the system to keep a diary every day, how could a serious person write down his inner thoughts in a diary!

In the early morning, Yakumo lay in bed and recalled tonight's battle. He made many mistakes.

For example, you shouldn't let down your guard just because Uncle Heitsu is an acquaintance. If that kunai flew into his eyes, it might be him, Ii Yakumo, who falls today.

You should also mix the chakra-dissolving poison needles into the water bombs, so that even after hitting the enemy, the enemy will still be able to fight, but it will also become easier to deal with because the chakra is dissolved.

Fortunately, he had prepared corpse-transforming water in advance. Even if the place of fighting was found in the future, it would be difficult to get any clues from the corpse.

There are still many shortcomings in this battle. The best we can do is fight.

……80 points.

The next day, Yakumo opened the door and breathed in the fresh air after the rain, slowly showing a smile.

Standing outside the door was Masako Mori with a serious face and thick dark circles under her eyes. It was obvious that what happened yesterday had kept her awake all night.

"The corpse-transforming water and trace-disappearing water were provided by Kakashi for self-defense. I was worried that someone would harm me. As for my strength, after my parents passed away, I vowed to continue to become stronger... I have achieved great results in this month's practice.

This is what it looks like." Yakumo took two steps forward and explained first.

"Oh." A few questions in Masako Mori's mind were indeed eliminated, but more questions were born in her heart.

He seemed to have said everything, but seemed to have said nothing, so Masako Mori continued to ask.

"Where did you get that ninjutsu that dents the enemy's back?"

"Water bomb, I told you... water bomb is a very powerful ninjutsu..." Yakumo said in a matter-of-fact tone.

"What the hell! Is this the ninjutsu that Uncle I used to water the flowers?" Masako Mori's voice suddenly increased by several decibels.

"That's right..." Yakumo said matter-of-factly, giving Mori Masako a look that said, "If you don't believe me, just forget it."

"Maybe it's possible?" Masako Mori suddenly remembered the giant bear that was hit by water bombs and kept retreating in the forest that day. At that time, she thought it was because of the high temperature, but now she thought it was because of the powerful impact.

"Come to my house after school today, and I will give you the trophy, the training scroll of the Fire Dragon Flame Bullet." Yakumo took two steps forward and whispered in Masako Mori's ear.

"Okay..." Masako Mori's cheeks turned red and she couldn't help but take two steps back.

"Your full name should be Uchiha Mori Masako?"

"No...the full name should be Masako Senjumori."

"What…?"

At this moment, Yakumo seemed to understand something, and he continued before Masako Mori could speak.

"Your father's surname is Senju and your mother's surname is Uchiha?"

"It's...grandpa and grandma, it's a very complicated story anyway." Masako Mori also knew very little about the old man's affairs back then.

"It's nothing more than two tribes that are hostile to each other, and they fall in love with each other through a clever coincidence. In the end, they fake death and escape, and the lovers finally get married." Yakumo said quickly with a smile.

"How do you know..." Masako Mori was very surprised.

"There are many such stories in the romance novels in the library." Yakumo replied.

"Really? I'll borrow one someday." At least Yakumo's explanation eliminated Masako Mori's inner fear and anxiety, and she smiled happily again.

"I really envy you people who have stories. I only have handsome words throughout my life."

"You are so shameless now."

"Ha ha."

The topic changed again, but Yakumo's mood became more complicated, which was unreasonable.

Yakumo thought to himself, with the importance the Uchiha clan attaches to the Sharingan, is it really possible to fake death and escape?

Unless a corpse with the same face and appearance can be prepared, or a special opportunity occurs, it is possible to succeed, but the chance is infinitely close to zero.

There is no doubt that Mori Masako has Uchiha blood, but Yakumo has great doubts about the idea of ​​"faking death to escape". Unfortunately, he can only ask so far, and if he continues to ask, his suspicion of Uchiha will be revealed.

The clan is very aware of this unexplainable fact.

Just as Yakumo entered the classroom, the fighting location in the alley was found by ANBU members, and it didn't take long for the ANBU chief to arrive at the scene.
