Chapter 61: The Three Divine Skills Are No Longer What They Were Before
During these three months, Gojo Yoru did not use the Flying Thunder God Technique, but secretly left Konoha to observe the battle situation.
He was not interested in the Second Shinobi World War, not only because this war was not his stage.
Furthermore, it's because... Gojo Yoru isn't interested in the "defense of the homeland" in this world.
Although he was a "native" who was reborn into the world, he was also a transmigrator from another world. Even after he began to integrate into this world, Gojo Yoru still had no feelings for it.
He only has a fondness for a few important characters who were fictional characters in their past lives. If he happens to meet them and it's just a small favor, Gojo Yoru wouldn't mind rewriting their original fate.
If someone can bring him huge benefits, like Kushina Uzumaki or Orochimaru, Gojo Yoru will take the initiative to approach and befriend them, and then gradually treat them as important people in his life.
If they encounter danger or difficulties, Gojo Yoru will do everything in his power to help them, even if it means exposing his spacetime bloodline limit.
As for the lives of other people, what does it matter to him?
Besides this, there was another crucial reason why Gojo Yoru didn't go to observe the battle situation.
That was Gojo Yoru at that time. His Space-Time Yin Seal had just been completed and he had not yet stored space-time chakra. If he left Konoha rashly, he would easily be discovered by White Zetsu and attract the attention of Madara Uchiha.
The Spore Technique, the Mayfly Technique, and the Disguise Technique are, in some ways, no less powerful than the three legendary techniques of Shippuden: the Impure World Reincarnation Technique, the Flying Thunder God Technique, and the Eight Gates.
The clones created by the Spore Technique will not disappear even if the original body dies; they are completely independent entities.
Moreover, these clones can attach themselves to other people and hide, and can transmit information to the original body in real time.
The technique of disguise allows one to absorb another's chakra and not only transform into their appearance but also perfectly replicate their chakra aura. Even the most familiar person and the most skilled sensory ninja cannot distinguish between the real and the fake.
If one can conceal malice, even the Nine-Tails' sense of good and evil will find it difficult to detect.
But the most outrageous one is the art of the mayfly.
The Spore Technique and the Disguise Technique are essentially the ultimate versions of the Clone Technique and the Transformation Technique, possessing only the abilities of creating clones and transforming.
The art of the mayfly combines the abilities of teleportation and invisibility.
When this technique is activated, the user will become one with the earth, severing all traces of their presence, making them undetectable to anyone.
Besides concealment, the practitioner can also move at high speed through networks of organic matter such as underground plant roots and underground water flow, which cannot be stopped even by barriers.
It was precisely because of this technique that Black Zetsu was never discovered by Hagoromo and Hamura, and even dared to bewitch Indra while the brothers Hagoromo and Hamura were still alive.
Even the ultimate eye technique couldn't detect it, and the space-time chakra couldn't completely leave the body. Gojo Yoru, who had sublimated his perception into a perception space, naturally couldn't detect the existence of Black and White Zetsu.
Even his desire to obtain the Flying Thunder God Technique stemmed from his fear of being discovered and targeted by this ancient, cunning old fox.
After all, back then, Gojo Yoru neither had super long-range teleportation nor was he an easy target for assassination.
But now...
Inside the room, Gojo Yoru stood in front of a full-length mirror, buttoning his shirt while scrutinizing the boy in the reflection. He grinned and said, "Things are different now!"
The boy in the mirror was 1.7 meters tall, with a straight and upright figure like a pine tree. His physique, which was not yet fully buttoned, showed clear lines and well-proportioned muscles.
As the buttons were fastened, his hand passed over his chest.
The dark, angular mark slightly above the sternum is much more intense than it was three months ago.
Wearing a black coat, Gojo Yoru was now completely black except for her white hair and striking white eyelashes.
Aside from a 20-centimeter height difference and a more youthful appearance, Gojo Yoru's current character model is becoming more and more like Gojo Satoru.
He took out two wristband-style storage scrolls, one to store the chakra blade and the other to store a ninja tool pouch filled with Flying Thunder God kunai.
Pulling up his cuffs to hide the two storage scrolls, Gojo Yoru took out Thor's Sword, which when not in use was just a flashlight-shaped handle, and put it into his large pocket.
After patting the jacket, which showed no bulges and did not affect her appearance, Gojo Yoru was very satisfied with her design.
After making all the preparations, Gojo walked out of the room with his hands in his pockets.
Kushina Uzumaki, who was waiting for him in the living room, immediately came over. Instead of arguing with him, she said with a worried expression, "Yoru, no matter what the mission is, you must be careful. I'll be waiting for you to come home."
"Don't worry, I'm the strongest."
Gojo Yoru couldn't help but start the challenge of suppressing laughter again.
After patting Kushina Uzumaki's head, Gojo Yoru seemed to remember something and instructed her in return, "When I'm not home, don't go out into the wild for sensory training without permission. Remember to carry the Flying Thunder God Kunai with you at all times."
"Hehe... I always carry it with me, and I only wear clothes with the Flying Thunder God Technique seal on them." Kushina Uzumaki patted the ninja tool pouch at her waist, and at the same time raised her hand, revealing the Flying Thunder God Technique seal on her sleeve.
"Smart, wait for me to come back."
Gojo Yoru chuckled and rubbed Kushina Uzumaki's cute round face before disappearing without a trace.
"Lord Hokage, this is Gojo Yoru, a genin reporting for duty."
In the Hokage's office, Gojo Yoru saw Hiruzen Sarutobi again after many months.
Unlike his initial respectful demeanor, Gojo Yoru, who had already mastered the Flying Thunder God Technique, became increasingly casual in front of Hiruzen Sarutobi.
For example, right now, Gojo Yoru didn't bow, but simply raised his right hand as if greeting an acquaintance.
"Long time no see, Night, you've grown taller again."
Sarutobi Hiruzen not only didn't care about Gojo Yoru's attitude, but actually liked his casual manner, which showed that their relationship was no longer estranged.
Gojo Yoru is already a member of the Hokage lineage and will be one of his trump cards in the future.
Hiruzen Sarutobi, smoking his pipe, wasn't in a hurry to assign Gojo Yoru a mission. Instead, he chatted about everyday things, advising, "Although Orochimaru isn't in the village, missions aren't just high-level missions outside the village. There are also D-rank missions to help the village and its residents with their daily affairs. Young people should focus on building social connections instead of always thinking about training."
"But... isn't it only Chunin who can take on missions alone? I'm still a Genin." Gojo Yoru asked with some doubt.
"The rule is that only Chunin can lead a team to carry out a C-rank mission alone, and it does not include taking on D-rank missions," Hiruzen Sarutobi said. "You yourself are the captain, so you can come and take on a D-rank mission on your own."
"Furthermore, with your current resume, you already meet the requirements to participate in the Chunin Exams."
"However, the ninja world has been quite turbulent lately. This year's Chunin Exams may be canceled, and special promotions will be conducted through mission-based assessments."
Hiruzen Sarutobi finally got to the point, his expression serious as he said, "So... I have a special mission for you."
"I understand. Please give your orders, Hokage-sama," Gojo Yoru said solemnly.
