Konoha.
On the street.
"Scroll of Seals, which Ninjutsu should I choose?" Goenji toyed with a ball of flame in his hand, as if it possessed its own will, constantly turning it back and forth.
Snap!
After extinguishing the flames, Goenji looked towards the bustling streets of Konoha.
The development of Ninjutsu is an ongoing process, and knowledge must be continuously supplemented through learning. But what he needs to do now is to go to Hiruzen Sarutobi and obtain an awesome Ninjutsu.
He hadn't forgotten what Hiruzen Sarutobi had said a few days ago.
That's the Scroll of Seals. Even though he's already very powerful, the Ninjutsu from the Scroll of Seals is still incredibly awesome in his eyes.
These are all extremely practical Ninjutsu.
Ninjutsu like the Bringer-of-Darkness Technique Genjutsu, Impure World Reincarnation, Flying Thunder God Technique, and Spirit Transformation Technique Ninjutsu all highly coveted.
Moreover, according to Goenji's speculation, the Ninjutsu in the Scroll of Seals are not just the famous ones. Those are just more practical and used by people, which is why they are famous in the original work.
There might be other, even more outrageous, Ninjutsu hidden inside... or perhaps even more targeted Ninjutsu.
It would be even better if there were any techniques that could help him develop new and powerful Fire Release Ninjutsu, which he could learn from.
"Yosh, dinner's ready! Congratulations on the perfect completion of our mission! That's youth for you!"
"Ah~ It's a pity that Professor Chōza is too busy, so it's just the three of us eating."
"Ebisu, I think you want Mr. Chōza to pay the bill, right?"
As I passed a barbecue restaurant, I heard a familiar voice coming from the entrance.
Goenji looked in the direction of the sound and saw a man with a mushroom-shaped haircut and a tight-fitting bodysuit appear in his field of vision. Next to him was a boy wearing a headscarf and holding Senbon in his mouth.
Beside them stood a thin boy wearing sunglasses.
"Ebisu Might Guy, Genma Shiranui..." Goenji's eyes lit up; they were their childhood friends!
They seem quite energetic.
I never expected to see them on the street. After experiencing so much on the battlefield, the three of them still have such energy. No wonder they all have bright futures.
Might Guy goes without saying. As the embodiment of passion and hard work in Naruto, his youthful energy is at its peak. In another year or two, he will become Jonin, just like him Jonin fourteen.
Of course, that was based on memories from his previous life. Whether it will happen in reality is still uncertain, after all, he has done so many things that have influenced the course of events.
The butterfly effect has a significant impact.
Ebisu will become an elite teacher in the future. He will be the most famous teacher in the teaching world besides Iruka, and also an Elite Jonin.
He's going to be very powerful in the future, because if he remembers correctly, he can create many Shadow Clone Techniques to chase after Naruto's Shadow Clone Technique. That's how he remembers it.
Genma Shiranui, who carries a senbon needle, will become a powerful special jonin in the future. He can fight a long and one-on-one battle with Sunagakure jonin Baki, and even gives people a very strong feeling. He is not a simple character.
Even after experiencing so much in the Shinobi World, Goenji still really liked that calm and handsome feeling.
In his view, he was a supporting character with the face of a protagonist, just like Mizuki.
"Um?"
Just as he looked over, Genma Shiranui in the distance glanced over sharply, and only when he saw the Uchiha Clan Crest on his body did his gaze slowly soften.
"What's wrong, Genma?" Ebisu saw his movement and immediately went on alert, pushing up his sunglasses and quickly scanning the area.
Whoosh--!
Might Guy instantly shielded the two behind him. "Are there enemies?"
They looked around but didn't see any enemies, except for an Uchiha man about their age who smiled at them when they looked over.
Genma Shiranui: "No, it was that Uchiha from earlier. I thought he was an enemy spy. The battlefield has been too intense lately, things have gotten a bit too heated!"
"I see. Genma, you're the sharpest one. Maybe the other person is posing as Uchiha, and their true identity is actually a spy."
Upon hearing this, Might Guy had an idea pop into his head and uttered it aloud. Then, seeing the Uchiha in the distance, he turned and left.
This action is even more suspicious.
"Look, he seems to have heard me, and then he walked away guiltily. Let's follow him and see if he's a spy."
"Alright, let's follow them and see what happens!"
Genma Shiranui and Ebisu both agreed.
Even though they had already arrived at the barbecue restaurant, the safety of the village was more important.
Whoosh--!
The three used ninja stealth techniques, or perhaps unique skills, to track them down.
They used all sorts of methods, such as disguising themselves with cloaks and using Transformation Technique to disguise themselves as ordinary people, closely following behind Goenji.
"This direction seems to be the direction the Lord Hokage is heading?"
"Could it be that they intend to assassinate the Lord Hokage, throw Konoha into chaos, and then seize the opportunity to take over Konoha? We can't let them succeed."
"Kai, don't overthink it. Let Genma handle this."
Ebisu was speechless upon hearing Might Guy's words.
How can the analysis be so simple?
"Yes, maybe he was just going to report on his work, but judging from his casual clothes, that's probably not the case. He must have something to discuss with the Lord Hokage."
Of course, we cannot rule out the possibility that he went to assassinate the Lord Hokage.
Genma Shiranui analyzed.
As the team's strategist, he must put his wisdom to good use.
Whoosh!
Continuing to follow them, it turned out they were heading towards the Hokage Office.
Very suspicious.
Just around the corner, their eyes widened.
Where are they?
Where did it go?
"Could they have discovered us?"
The Uchiha's figure disappeared. Looking around the corner again, there was only a trash can and a rock nearby. The road was spotless. This couldn't be.
The three immediately went on alert; this strongly suggested they might be enemy spies.
Suddenly.
Bang--!
"Hey, what are you guys doing following me? Shouldn't we be eating? We just came from the battlefield, shouldn't we be resting for a bit? Why are you tracking me?"
The stone transformed into Goenji, leaning against the wall, looking at them with a somewhat speechless expression.
However, all three are quite talented and have good tracking skills.
Even Might Guy's stealth technique was beyond his expectations.
Although it wasn't particularly outstanding, it was still a competent and important task, something that needed to be done.
Whoosh--!
The sudden appearance of Goenji put the three of them on high alert, and they were all prepared to attack.
However, Genma reacted faster. "A code."
"Yes, the code."
The three simultaneously made the coded hand gestures of Konoha, indicating their identities as Konoha Ninja.
"Not bad, very cautious." Goenji smiled, but still gave the corresponding signal.
[Hmm, I didn't chat with her all day yesterday, so I guess that's the end of it. I'm determined to be a free-willed simp; if she won't contact me, I'll go simp other girls.]
