"Duy, you don't have enough Ki in your body yet, so don't rush to learn this. I'll teach you the method first, and you can study it for now. Once you have enough Ki, it won't be too late to practice. Don't rush for results."

"Okay, Yuying!" Might Duy stuck out his thumb and flashed his gleaming white teeth. "Duy, let me ask you something. What brand of toothpaste do you use? I'll buy some later." "Oh, let me think. It's a small brand called Youthful Rhythm. 'Brush out your beauty.' It comes in green packaging."

"Oh, okay. I'll look for it later. All right, enough chitchat. I'll continue. This is how you train. Duy, close your eyes and feel the flow of Ki in your body. Then draw all the energy in your body evenly toward your palm. Slowly, don't rush. Yes, just like that, gather it bit by bit. Now comes the crucial moment. Use the power of nature to envelop the energy in your hand and compress it until it reaches saturation. Then you've succeeded. Finally, give it a resounding name and fire it." Boom! A swath of trees ahead toppled over.

"Did you understand?" Itō Yuying turned to look at Might Duy, only to find that his teeth had lost their usual luster. He stood there in silent contemplation. Itō Yuying didn't disturb him. He would let him properly digest it.

Actually, Itō Yuying's Energy Wave didn't need to be enveloped in the power of nature, but there were still differences between the Naruto world and the Dragon Ball world. Enveloping it in natural energy made it easier to shape and more powerful. It also conformed to the rules of the Naruto world.

Just then, an Anbu ninja came to Itō Yuying's side and said quietly, "Itō Yuying, Lord Hokage summons you." "Understood," Itō Yuying replied. The Anbu ninja nodded and disappeared before him. Then Itō Yuying used the Flight Technique to soar into the sky and fly toward the Hokage Building.

Arriving at the Hokage Building, Itō Yuying said to Tobirama Senju, "Teacher, did you want to see me?"

"Oh, Yuying, you're here. How is it going? Have you made any progress with the Flying Thunder God? If there's anything you don't understand, I'll explain it to you in detail again," Tobirama Senju asked smugly. Itō Yuying thought, What's gotten into him? Does he have to ask about this the moment we meet? Asking is one thing, but does he have to look so smug about it? Seriously.

"Ahem, Teacher, I still haven't figured anything out," Itō Yuying said.

"Ah... Yuying! You need to take your studies seriously. It only took me a few days to create this technique."

"Young people these days are getting lazier and lazier."

Itō Yuying seethed. Just wait until I learn Instant Transmission. I'll show you up then. Seeing Itō Yuying grit his teeth made Tobirama Senju's mood even better. "All right, I'll stop teasing you. I called you here today because I have a mission for you. It's been a while since you graduated. Strictly speaking, you barely attended school at all. How am I supposed to lead everyone if you keep this up?"

"All right, Teacher, I know I was wrong. Please just tell me about the mission!" "Ah... You've grown up and become independent. Now you even find it annoying to hear your teacher say a few words."

Looking utterly helpless, Itō Yuying could only apologize respectfully. Tobirama Senju nodded in satisfaction at his respectful attitude and stopped making things difficult for him. In truth, this was just a little interaction between master and student. Tobirama Senju was normally extremely stern. If anyone else had been this unruly with him, he would have slapped them twice long ago. But Itō Yuying was different.

"Yuying! There's a B-rank escort mission to protect the daimyo's envoy and bring him safely back to the Land of Fire Capital. As you know, the war is intense right now, and we have no personnel to spare."

Itō Yuying gave a dry laugh. "Then what's with those two geniuses sneaking looks at our training every single day, rain or shine?"

"I have arrangements for those two." "Are they going to protect us in secret again?"

"Urk..." That stopped Tobirama Senju short! Children these days aren't cute at all.

"Teacher, I'll follow all your arrangements."

"Mm-hmm. Find two companions to go with you, then. Assemble at the Hokage Building in an hour. Hurry along and get ready."

"Okay." With that, he flew straight out of the Hokage Building. Itō Yuying was very happy that day. Ever since he was born, he had never left Konoha. Since the last incident, the security detail around him had never numbered fewer than ten. Itō Yuying had previously told Tobirama Senju that he didn't need so many people protecting him.

Tobirama Senju had merely glanced at him. "Do you know how many assassination attempts the Anbu have stopped for you over these past few years? Do you know how many Jonin and Elite Jonin have come to assassinate you? Do you know how many Anbu have died protecting you? There's no such thing as a peaceful life. It's just that someone else is shouldering the burden for you. Do you understand? And only those who survive are geniuses. Once you're dead, you're nothing. As long as you can grow, I don't care how many people die, myself included." This reminded him of Naruto in his previous life, when Tobirama Senju had held off Kinkaku and Ginkaku alone to cover Sarutobi Hiruzen and the others' retreat, ultimately dying together with them.

Itō Yuying gathered himself and hurried to the training ground.

He found Might Duy and Hatake Sakumo and said, "I'm leaving the village on a mission shortly. Do you two want to come?" "Yes," the two answered in unison.

"Good. Meet at the Hokage Building in an hour." "Yes!" The two quickly left.

Itō Yuying returned to his grandfather's home. Seeing his grandson, Yiteng Yue said, "It isn't meal-

"time yet. Why are you here already?" Ever since the last incident, Yiteng Yue had been scarred by the experience. Itō Yuying said with a wry smile, "Grandpa, I'm not here to eat." "Oh, really? Oh, my precious grandson, come in! I've missed you so much." Itō Yuying's face darkened. "No need. I'm leaving the village on a mission soon. I came to let you know. We're assembling shortly." "What? Leaving the village on a mission? How old are you? Why don't we tell Lord Hokage you aren't going? Just say I'm sick, the kind where I'm about to die." "Grandpa, your grandson has grown up. It's time I shouldered some responsibility. Grandpa, it'll be fine. Teacher will send lots of powerful people to protect me." "Ah... Yuying! You must take good care of yourself. I'll be waiting at home for you to return. Remember to eat before you come over!" Itō Yuying thought, Give me back that touching moment.

"Grandpa, I'm leaving." "Mm-hmm, go on!" Itō Yuying flew toward the Hokage Building. Through his perception, he saw his grandfather wiping away tears while his grandmother comforted him. Itō Yuying reined in his emotions and sped toward the Hokage Building.

When Itō Yuying arrived at the Konoha building, he saw that Sarutobi Hiruzen, Shimura Danzō, and ten Anbu were already in place. Itō Yuying greeted them respectfully. "Hello, senior brothers. Hello, Anbu seniors." They nodded in response. Tobirama Senju smiled. "You're here. Have you finished telling your family?"

"Yes, Teacher." Just then, Might Duy and Hatake Sakumo also arrived at the Hokage Building, and both offered their greetings. "Mm." Tobirama Senju nodded in satisfaction. "This mission is to escort the daimyo's envoy back to the Land of Fire Capital. There will certainly be danger along the way. Don't worry, the Anbu will protect you, but they won't kill every enemy for you. You must also temper yourselves on a battlefield of blood and fire and improve your practical combat skills. Unless it's a matter of life and death, they won't intervene. Remember, this is the last time so many people will carry out a mission together. Two at the semi-Kage level, five Elite Jonin, and five Jonin. A lineup like this could turn the tide on a battlefield, and it's being used to accompany you on a B-rank mission. You must give it your all!"

"Yes!" the three answered in unison.
