Shisui's Ninjutsu

Konoha

Hokage Building

In the Hokage Office, Naraku the window, hands behind his back, looking out. In the middle of the office, a short-haired young ninja wearing a vest stood respectfully.

"Shisui, how is your training of the Fire Style: Heaven's End that I taught you? I haven't heard any inquiries or requests for guidance from you in the past year. Have you already mastered it completely?"

"Yes, Heaven's End my three months of arduous training, and I have successfully completed my studies, therefore..."

Uchiha Shisui answered respectfully.

"Three months? You succeeded in cultivation just by looking at my scroll?"

Naraku was somewhat surprised. Heaven's End was one of Naraku's ultimate Ninjutsu. Naraku knew how difficult it was to master. Just the naturalization of Chakra and the release of naturalized flames from pressure points were not easy tasks.

"Hehe... Not bad, not bad. This is Fire Style ultimate Ninjutsu. You're much faster than Ruofeng and Inabi. You truly deserve the Body Flicker Shisui."

Upon Naraku turned around, smiled, and walked back to his seat as the Hokage.

"Haha, Chieftain, you flatter me."

Shisui scratched the back of his head and flashed a sunny smile.

Shisui shares many similarities with Namikaze Minato terms of personality; he is usually very gentle, but can also take a serious and assertive stance when it matters.

"No exaggeration. By practicing Ninjutsu, one can discern a ninja's aptitude."

Naraku had a great fondness for Shisui's gentle and humble personality, and felt as if he were communicating with Namikaze Minato every time he visited Shisui.

"Shisui, you are a ninja skilled in fire, wind, and lightning nature transformations, and you have mastered all the clan's Ninjutsu. You have mastered many powerful Ninjutsu, and your mastery of nature transformations is also very profound... Hmm, take a look at this Ninjutsu and see if you are confident that you can learn it."

Naraku softly, a swirling wind appearing in his right palm, which he tossed directly to Shisui.

"This is Ninjutsu developed by Namikaze Minato, the Yellow Flash. It's an A-rank, Rasengan Ninjutsu, representing the ultimate form transformation of Chakra. If a nature transformation could be added to the Rasengan, it would become an extremely powerful Ninjutsu."

Namikaze Minato's Ninjutsu, in principle, cannot be taught to outsiders without his permission.

However, as the Naraku, strengthening Konoha's power and selecting suitable Ninjutsu for Konoha Ninja were among Naraku's responsibilities.

"What kind of Ninjutsu is this?"

Shisui was somewhat surprised to see the fluctuations in Naraku's palm. After catching the scroll Naraku tossed to him, he opened it, glanced at it briefly, and then closed it, saying in a deep voice:

"The ultimate form transformation? I understand, I will diligently cultivate."

"Yes, this is a unique Ninjutsu developed by the man known as the Yellow Flash, Namikaze Minato. It's very difficult to learn and cannot be taught to outsiders without authorization."

Seeing that Shisui was confident, Naraku nodded slightly and added.

"I see!"

Shisui responded with a somewhat serious expression.

Shisui received much care from Naraku since childhood. After he cultivated his Chakra and began to show his talent, Naraku personally taught him Ninjutsu.

He taught Shisui many S-rank and ultimate-level Ninjutsu. Shisui had a strong learning ability and high comprehension, and he could also develop his Ninjutsu. At the same time, Shisui's Body Flicker Technique was also quite famous in the Shinobi World.

Shisui's Body Flicker Technique is not just a Genjutsu illusionary clone that enemies cannot resist; extreme speed is also Shisui's trademark. Shisui's Body Flicker Technique is not simply Taijutsu of Body Flicker Technique.

"Yes, I summoned you here today because I need your help with a mission. For some reason, it seems there's been unrest in Kirigakure."

Many Kirigakure Ninja roam the seas, threatening the East Coast of the Land of Fire. You are required to patrol the East Coast for a period of time, expelling Hidden Mist Kirigakure ninja who have illegally entered the area. During the mission, you will be under the jurisdiction of Fukushima Yuki Garrison Commander of the East Coast outpost."

After Naraku finished casting his Ninjutsu, he took out the topmost scroll from the tray containing many small scrolls on the Hokage's desk and tossed it to Shisui.

"Clan Chief, you're too kind. It's only right that we make sacrifices for Konoha."

Shisui often felt somewhat bewildered by the preferential treatment he received from the clan leader, Naraku.

"Yes, our Uchiha Clan is one of the two great clans that founded Konoha. In many dangerous missions, we should take the lead and set an example for Konoha."

Naraku looked at Shisui and said with a serious expression.

"Clear!"

"Okay, go ahead!"

Naraku waved his hand.

"Hi!"

Shisui bowed slightly, turned around, and pushed open the door to leave.

Naraku up, walked to the window, and looked at the scenery outside, as well as Shisui's slowly departing figure.

Uchiha Shisui was kind-hearted and simple-minded, but he was also decisive and ruthless in critical moments, making him a very reliable ninja.

However, such a mindset makes one vulnerable to manipulation by those with ulterior motives. Just like his frequent close association with Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzō, he completely disregarded his own position and never considered whether his actions would arouse Naraku's suspicion.

"Danzo, you've been silent for so long, you're really good at enduring. Even Shisui started emphasizing the Will of Root and silent dedication. I have to say, when it comes to brainwashing skills, you're in no way inferior to Sarutobi Hiruzen."

Sarutobi Hiruzen, Shimura Danzō Orochimaru, Orochimaru— the Three Great Brainwashers of the Shinobi World.

Hyuga Clan Compound

Inside the clan head's house, two children, around three or four years old, were having a martial arts contest. The slightly taller boy was Neji Hyuga, the son of Hizashi.

The other girl is Hiashi, the eldest daughter of the Hyuga Clan and the head daughter of the Hyuga Hinata Main House.

The Hyuga Clan chief Hyuga Hiashi, and Hizashi Hyuga knelt above, looking calmly at the two people in the arena.

"Hey!"

Hinata little girl, seized an opening in her Neji's defenses and struck out with a palm, which Neji easily dodged with a slight movement.

Neji then slapped Hinata on the back, Hinata to stumble and almost fall to the ground.

After Neji defeated Hinata, he saw that Hinata had lost her balance and was about to fall, so he reached out and pulled Hinata back to regain Hinata balance.

Neji Hyuga felt a little embarrassed. Hinata level was too low. Just now, Neji Hyuga deliberately created an opening and then defeated Hinata, making it seem like Neji Hyuga only won by strategy, rather than by overwhelming strength.

In Taijutsu training and sparring, especially when Branch House family members serve as sparring partners for Main House members, it's very bad if the victory is too easy, and it's even worse if the opponent deliberately holds back. Neji Hyuga, despite his young age, already has some sense of strategy in his actions.

As Hyuga Hiashi watched Hinata's defeat, he could easily see through Neji Hyuga's Hyuga Hiashi -righteous behavior, and sighed inwardly.

"Hinata is too kind. Once she grows up a bit and learns the Hyuga Clan's secret Taijutsu, Neji won't be a match for her."

Hizashi, sensing his elder brother's worry, gently comforted him. Because Hiashi helped Uchiha Nara Neji Hyuga, much of the resentment deep in Hizashi's heart had dissipated, and the brothers' relationship was becoming more harmonious.

Hyuga Hiashi, hearing his younger brother Hizashi's words of comfort, did not respond. Instead, he said in a deep voice:

"Next month is Hinata's third birthday. I wonder if the Fourth Hokage still remembers that promise."

When Uchiha Nara running for the Fourth Hokage, Hyuga Hiashi promised to help Naraku.

However, things took an unexpected turn. Naraku, through his own strength and influence, managed to overcome the Third Hokage's reluctance to relinquish his power and seize the Hokage Position.

Hiashi's foresight and investment were indeed correct. Uchiha Nara all rivals to become the Fourth Hokage of Konoha, and has been steadily governing Konoha for more than three years, almost four.

However, Hyuga Hiashi did not play the role he should have in Naraku's struggle for Hokage.

Upon hearing these words, Hizashi Hyuga, who was standing nearby, felt a sense of unease.

"If the Fourth Hokage breaks his promise, then Neji will have to Caged Bird Seal on Hinata's third birthday..."

Hizashi then thought of his interactions with Naraku during the Third Shinobi World War, before Naraku became Hokage, and the Fourth Hokage's consistent character and conduct. Hizashi relaxed slightly and said softly:

"The Lord Hokage always keeps his promises, and I don't think he will go back on his word."

Hiashi turned his head slightly, glanced at Hizashi, and said expressionlessly:

"Perhaps."

Hyuga Hiashi speaking, Hiashi Hyuga got up and left.

Hizashi glanced at the two people in the room, gave them a warm smile, and then got up and left as well.

Neji Hyuga and Hinata both breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing Hiashi and Hizashi leave.

The two opened the paper sliding door and sat down to rest.

"It's snowing, Hinata."
