"Sōkū, where are we?" After a ripple of spatial sensation, Sōkyū Hatake appeared in Rōran with Obito Uchiha and Rin Nohara. The sight before them startled them the moment they arrived.
Buildings towered into the clouds, and the city brimmed with laughter. All of it stunned Rin Nohara, who had only known the layout of a village.
"This is Rōran. Rin, you should stay here from now on. It's still not suitable for you to appear in public." Sōkyū Hatake glanced at Rin Nohara as he spoke.
"Mm-hmm." Rin Nohara agreed absently, still taking in her surroundings.
"This place-have you been here all this time? And if I saw that right just now, you used Minato-sensei's Flying Thunder God Technique, didn't you?" Obito Uchiha began asking one question after another.
For someone as curious as him, everything was so new.
"I really have spent the past year and more here, and I've also mastered the Flying Thunder God Technique." Sōkyū Hatake smiled softly. During that year and more of absorbing the Ryūmyaku's chakra,
Sōkyū Hatake's body had undergone disintegration and reconstruction within the Ryūmyaku. During that time, he might have lacked other things, but time was what he had most of, so he had taken the opportunity to begin studying all kinds of ninjutsu.
Of course, the first one he mastered was the Flying Thunder God Technique.
Disintegrating his body within the Ryūmyaku meant that the entire Ryūmyaku bore his marks, allowing Sōkyū Hatake to use those Ryūmyaku marks to travel with Flying Thunder God.
As a result, Sōkyū Hatake soon trained his Flying Thunder God to its maximum level. That was why he had just been able to bring three people straight to Rōran from a point between Kirigakure and Konoha without any mishaps.
Long-Distance Flying Thunder God!
