Chapter 66 We look forward to your growth, the future Five Spirit Kings
Just as Tetsuya was about to kill Hanzo the Salamander, he shook his head and rejected the idea in his heart.
"Pah, pah, pah! I've been spending too much time with Izuna. My mind is full of fighting and killing. I'm a businessman, and a good businessman doesn't kill people himself."
Tetsuya picked up a piece of fruit from the fruit plate and took a bite.
"Moreover, if we kill him directly, there will be too many troublesome things afterward. If people from other ninja villages see that Hanzo of the Salamander is dead, they will definitely have some different thoughts, and the situation in the Land of Rain will only get worse."
Or, after killing him, could someone else impersonate Hanzo of the Salamander and secretly manipulate Amegakure?
This idea was actually Tetsuya's most reliable method: to find someone to switch Hanzo the Salamander with another person, or to directly control Hanzo the Salamander and then secretly manipulate everything in Amegakure.
When Yahiko and the others return to Amegakure after completing their training, he secretly manipulates Hanzo of the Salamander to give Yahiko and the others important positions, and then helps them establish prestige in Amegakure. When the time is right, he will abdicate and hand over the position of Amegakure leader to Yahiko and the others.
"Wow! This is a great idea! I'm a genius!"
Izuna sat to the side, somewhat speechless at Tetsuya's self-talk, but didn't react much; his old ailment was gone.
Over the years, Izuna often saw Tetsuya sitting there alone, muttering to himself.
"What's wrong, genius? What good thing have you thought of that makes you so happy?"
Izuna even raised his voice when he said the word "genius".
Tetsuya didn't seem to care, and instead smiled smugly.
"Hehe, I've found a good path for the future of Yahiko and the other two."
"Oh? The future of those three people?"
Upon hearing this, Izuna also became interested.
Tetsuya explained his plan to Izuna, who, as the mastermind behind the entire Uchiha clan, felt that the idea was very feasible after listening to it.
However, there were still many details that needed to be optimized, so the two sat down together to discuss them.
The two became more and more engrossed in their conversation, and even began to plan for the future of the Rain Country.
As the sun began to set, the warm sunlight transformed into an orange-red sunset.
Nagato slowly awoke from her deep sleep.
"What time is it now? How long have I been asleep?"
"You're quite the sleeper, aren't you? You've been sleeping all day."
Tetsuya, who was sitting to the side drinking tea and flipping through a scroll of ninjutsu, answered Nagato's question.
"Ah! I've slept all day, and I haven't finished the training that Izuna-sensei gave me yet."
"Alright, there's no need to worry about this. You've finally gotten rid of the physical burden, so resting a bit more will be good for your future."
Tetsuya put down the scroll and looked at Nagato.
After completing the seal, Nagato's eyes finally returned to normal from the Rinnegan, his black pupils looking exceptionally sharp and domineering.
These eyes have a quality that doesn't belong to Nagato at this stage; they have an air of dominance over the world that makes even the young Nagato seem a bit more assertive.
"Give me your hand so I can check how well you're recovering."
"Oh."
Nagato obediently extended his right hand, and Tetsuya grasped Nagato's wrist, releasing chakra to check his condition.
After a brief examination, he couldn't help but sigh, "Truly worthy of the Uzumaki clan's bloodline."
Nagato, who was originally depleted by the Rinnegan, is now full of vitality. However, this is not Nagato's best condition yet. It has only been a day. With proper care, he should be able to become even stronger.
"The recovery is going well, but you still need to take care of yourself. I'll have the chef at the restaurant prepare some more nourishing dishes for you later."
"Thank you, teacher."
"Hey, no need to thank me."
Nagato noticed the ninjutsu scroll beside Tetsuya and asked about it with some curiosity.
"Is the teacher researching ninjutsu?"
Tetsuya replied with a smile.
"That's right. Unlike Izuna-sensei, I don't have enviable natural talent, so I have to find time to study and research on my own."
Nagato curiously took a second look at the ninjutsu his teacher was researching. He realized that he only recognized the characters on it, but when he put the characters together, he couldn't quite understand what they meant.
Even so, he still discovered something interesting: the ninjutsu on this scroll actually used multiple types of chakra.
"Teacher, why do the ninjutsu on this scroll use both wind and fire chakra?"
Seeing that Nagato was interested, Tetsuya revealed a smug smile.
"This is something I developed myself. I haven't thought of a name yet. The effect of this ninjutsu is quite interesting. It can add the effects of other elemental chakra to a ninjutsu."
For example, when using Wind Release ninjutsu to attack an enemy, the usual methods are simply spinning, cutting, impacting, or squeezing to damage them. However, if fire-attribute chakra is added, the Wind Release ninjutsu can be imbued with a flame effect.
"Amazing!"
Although Nagato didn't understand the underlying principles, he instinctively felt that it was amazing.
"Right? Let me show you, you watch."
Tetsuya leaped and landed not far from a large tree.
"Watch out, Nagato! Fire Release: Flame Bullet Technique!"
With a flick of his wrist, a ball of flame shot out, Tetsuya deliberately missing the mark. The flame landed on the ground and exploded instantly, spreading backward. The explosion generated a considerable impact, while the flames continued to burn.
Immediately afterwards, Zhe also had something to do and pushed out with a palm strike.
"Wind Release: Gale Palm!"
The wind was compressed in his palm, and as Tetsuya struck out with his palm, a gale was immediately stirred up, and flames even appeared in the gale.
"Bang!"
The palm strike successfully hit the tree, and the thick trunk snapped and fell instantly. Flames erupted from the fallen tree, continuously scorching the wood.
"You see, Nagato? This is the effect of the technique I researched. It adds a new effect to a ninjutsu, increasing its versatility and making it unpredictable for your enemies."
"Wow, Tetsuya-sensei! Can I learn this?"
You can tell how much Nagato likes this ninjutsu just by looking at his excited expression.
This is actually quite normal. After all, before Nagato was drained dry by the Outer Path Demon Statue, he was the Five Spirit King.
This ninjutsu was developed based on the skills of Nagato, the young King of the Five Spirits.
He was really looking forward to the scene of Nagato chasing after others on the battlefield of the ninja world in the future.
"Of course you can. If you want to learn, I'll teach you after I've developed the complete version of ninjutsu."
Grow well, young man, and I look forward to the day you become the Five Spirit Kings.
