Who Could Say Otherwise?

When the Second Elder and the Grand Elder appeared directly at the Hokage Building, both of them looked shocked and stared at each other in disbelief.

The Grand Elder was greatly alarmed, thinking to himself, "Is this the strength of Konoha? Even the Flying Thunder God Technique has become so commonplace, how come so many people know it?"

The Second Elder was no less surprised than the Grand Elder, and thought to himself in shock:

"How come so many people in Konoha Flying Thunder God Technique? This kind of Space Ninjutsu is practically the bane of our Sharingan. I wonder how many members of our Uchiha Clan can learn it, so that we can also counter others."

Qingcheng looked at the two old men, laughed heartily, and said with a serious expression:

"Grand Elder, Second Elder, you two are the backbone of the Uchiha Clan. The Land of Fire is now our Konoha's territory, and we must send two reliable people to guard it. You two are those reliable people."

Upon hearing Qingcheng's words, Grand Elder Uchiha Xiongnan was overjoyed and thought to himself:

"This is praise from the Hokage! I'm so happy! He praised me as a reliable person. I'm a little flattered, hehehe,"

The Second Elder Uchiha Sanzang, also had a smile on his face and said happily:

"Hokage -sama, you are the sun of our Uchiha Clan. It is a great honor for us two old men to share such a heavy responsibility."

Upon hearing the Second Elder's words, the Grand Elder immediately echoed:

"Yes, yes, Lord Hokage, it's our honor. We two old folks will definitely keep an eye on the Land of Fire and absolutely prevent any riots from breaking out Land of Fire."

Qingcheng looked at the two old men, noting how eloquent they had become and how high their emotional intelligence had improved, and laughed heartily, saying with admiration:

"You two are both old but still very capable, and are indeed very suitable for this kind of mission. We'll head over now. Have you both given your instructions?"

Upon hearing the Hokage's question, Uchiha Xiongnan replied respectfully:

"Reporting to the Hokage, we have already made the arrangements. We have appointed Uchiha Kun as the Uchiha Yashiro Third Elder, and Uchiha Kun as his assistant. We also emphasized that when encountering problems, one should not act recklessly, but rather reason with others. One should also give way to villagers, practice Ninjutsu, and avoid conflicts with others as much as possible."

The Second Elder was like a broken record; whatever the Grand Elder said, he would chime in and agree.

"Yes, yes, the Grand Elder is absolutely right. Yes, yes, we've already talked about it. Yes, yes, we've already held meetings to spread the word."

Seeing the two putting on this act, Qingcheng immediately stopped them, saying seriously, "Alright, alright, let's go to the Land of Fire first. If you have anything to say, you can chat at the Daimyo's Daimyo's Estate in the Land of Fire."

Kakashi was also quite embarrassed, watching these two old men in their sixties, going back and forth like they were talking at the same time, their dead fish eyes rolling back, and he thought to himself:

"Luckily, the Hokage stopped them. If they had continued talking like that, we wouldn't have been able to leave even by tomorrow morning."

Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu watched the two old men giving their speeches, both looking troubled. They thought to themselves, "If those two had been so harmonious before, Danzo wouldn't have been able to destroy the Uchiha Clan."

The Grand Elder then asked, "Lord Hokage, how should we Land of Fire? Should we have these young men escort us?"

The Second Elder also said with a serious expression:

"Lord Hokage, if we two old folks set off tonight, we can reach the capital of the Land of Fire by tomorrow morning. These Flying Thunder God Squad members must be a special force from the village; we can't waste the village's military resources."

Qingcheng looked at these two clowns and laughed heartily, saying with a smile:

"Hold on to my arms, and be careful not to get thrown off. The journey will be fast, and if you get thrown off, you'll be in great danger."

Upon hearing this, the Grand Elder and Second Elder both reached out and grabbed Qingcheng's arms. Just then, another large hand appeared and grabbed Qingcheng's arm directly.

Qingcheng looked at Kakashi, who had extended his right hand, and said with a puzzled expression, "Brother Xiao, what do you mean? Don't tell me you don't know the Flying Thunder God Technique. I've already brought two people with me."

Upon hearing this, Kakashi immediately released his right hand and said with an embarrassed expression:

"I'm sorry, Hokage- sama, I almost forgot. If you hadn't reminded me, I wouldn't have known I Flying Thunder God Technique,"

Kakashi scratched his chin awkwardly again, then said, "Space travel to the Land of Fire is still too much trouble for me. How much Chakra would that waste?"

Qingcheng looked at the complaining Kakashi and said seriously, "Brother Xiao, let's go! When we get to the Land of Fire, I will bestow upon you the title of Super Invincible Cosmic War God, Tyrannosaurus Warrior, Great General King."

Upon hearing this, Kakashi's deadpan expression returned, and he exclaimed in astonishment, "What kind of position is this? Tyrannosaurus Warrior, Great General King? That's outrageous, absolutely outrageous!"

The Grand Elder and the Second Elder were both prepared, their faces full of smiles, while secretly thinking, "This Susanoo, what should I be careful about?"

Just then, Qingcheng shouted, "Flying Thunder God Technique!"

The Grand Elder and the Second Elder both exclaimed in surprise, "What? It's the Flying Thunder God Technique again? Oh no, are my eyes playing tricks on me?"

Kakashi watched as Qingcheng vanished, then began forming hand seals and shouted, "Flying Thunder God Technique!"

With a whoosh, Kakashi also disappeared into the Hokage Building.

Watching Kakashi leave, Mitokado Homura said, "They treat the Flying Thunder God Technique as just a travel Ninjutsu. If Minato knew, would he be lamenting somewhere that this was his most prized Ninjutsu?"

Utatane Koharu, said speechlessly:

This is Ninjutsu invented by the Second Hokage, and now, even the copyright has been taken by the Uchiha Clan. All those who subsequently practice the Flying Thunder God Technique are from the Uchiha Clan."

"Yes, yes Mitokado Homura nodded, then added, "Who says otherwise? When my grandson is a little older, I'll have him learn the Flying Thunder God Technique too."

Utatane Koharu then said with a serious expression, "The Homura Flying Thunder God is S-rank Ninjutsu. I wonder if your grandson has any talent for Space Ninjutsu."

Upon hearing this, Mitokado Homura felt as if he had been doused with cold water, and said rather awkwardly, "It seems there really isn't."
