Chapter 26 - 26 (1/2)
After Danzo left, the Anbu delivered a report to the 3rd. As he opened it his face got worried.
”Minato, here, take a look at this report.” Minato was a disciple of his own, Jiraiya, who has been on the battlefront in World War II. So the 3rdtotally trusted him. ”This is really a serious matter. We have this new big problem that I can't solve!”
Minato took the report and read through it quickly. After finishing, he gave Ryo a strange look!
”You check it out too kid!” The 3rd also noticed Minato's expression and let Ryo take a look at it.
Ryo read the report: It said that the death forest was invaded and partially destroyed by a massive Jutsu that is similar to a Biju Bomb.
Reading this, Ryo wasn't surprised. He understood Minato's look, as both were the convicts here.
”The village was invaded by an unknown ninja, and he used such a big Ninjutsu that should be a challenge to face if he attacked the people next time!”
The 40 year old Hokage was still at his peak, with much more of an intense temper than what was depicted in the anime. He felt he was being provoked by another powerful Shinobi and that pissed him off!
Ryo and Minato kept staring at each other, until Ryo finally leaned over and said to the 3rd: ”Hokage sama, what happened in the Forest of Death is… well probably… I mean it might be… Minato Oni-san's doing!”
”What?! Minato, you actually developed such a masterpiece?”
”Hokage sama, this is my advanced version of Rasengan, called the Rasenshuriken. I had a Flying Thunder God mark in that forest, and that's how I haven't been seen entering.”
The 3rd who thought previously that this was done by an outsider that sneaked in, was relieved
”Minato! Experimental Ninjutsus don't come at this scale. Rasengan is the Ninjutsu you just gave the village no?”
”Yes, Hokage sama! The Rasenshuriken is the result of incorporation of nature transformation into the Rasengan. I developed this along with Ryo.”
Ryo, who was watching the conversation from the sidelines, jumped in as soon as he was mentioned by Minato, to say that he had little to do with this, and that it was mainly the fruit of Minato's work.
”You two actually came up with such a big Justu. I'll bail you out this time. Never do such a thing again without notifying me!”
Hearing the 3rd's words, the two sighed with relief.
”Minato, take me to the Forest of Death. I want to check out this technique with my own eyes.
”Yes, Hokage Sama.”
In the dead forest, the scene from the other day was reproduced. Minato used a Rasenshuriken blowing a hole in the other side of the forest.
Seeing the power of the Jutsu, the 3rd became silent. And when the Anbu, who were all around the forest waiting to ambush the supposed outsider, when they arrived at the scene, he announced this matter as an S-class secret that nobody but him can ask about.
Back in his office, he smiled looking at the two. He always knew that Minato was so talented.
Minato became a special Jonin at the age of 10. After learning the Flying Thunder God Jutsu, and being trained on the battlefield of WWII, the 16-year-old Minato reached the Kage level. Now, he develops an S-rank Jutsu: Rasenshuriken. He is becoming one of the main pillars of Konoha.
