Konoha's Forest of Death
"Obito, your teacher will teach you a technique today. This technique is extremely complex, requiring mastery of sealing formulas and talent in space-time ninjutsu. But once learned, it can greatly enhance your survival ability." Namikaze Minato stood with one hand on his hip, looking at Uchiha Obito and smiling.
Uchiha Obito's expression shifted. The Flying Thunder God Technique! Teacher Minato was actually willing to teach him this ninjutsu. But could he even learn it?
Just as this thought appeared, somehow another voice sounded within him. 'You can. It is just the Flying Thunder God.'
That voice was full of vicissitudes, yet felt very familiar to Obito. It was like—yes, it was like his own voice.
"Obito, Obito? Why are you spacing out?" Hatake Kakashi, seeing Obito distracted, waved a hand in front of his eyes.
"You guy, you weren't shocked by Teacher Minato's decision, were you! So unimpressive!" Hatake Kakashi curled his lip, deliberately provoking him.
Hatake Sakumo was still alive. According to him, his own son was gentle, kind, respectful, frugal, and magnanimous. But in Uchiha Obito's view, that was complete nonsense!
Hatake Kakashi was simply a chatterbox, a smug guy, a sharp-tongued gossip! His little mouth yapped on and on all day, specifically targeting Lord Obito!
"Bastard Kakashi!" Obito roared, about to start a fight. But then Rin coughed twice. "Alright, you two, stop fighting now!"
With that one sentence, both of them froze. See, it had to be Rin. One sentence made both men stop their actions.
Namikaze Minato held his forehead. "Hey, hey, you two, that is enough. Obito, are you going to learn it or not? I begged my teacher for a long time to get this opportunity for you. The Flying Thunder God Technique is a forbidden technique, not something just anyone can learn."
Uchiha Obito quickly said, "Thank you, Teacher Minato!" Hearing this, Obito was also very excited. His teacher, Namikaze Minato, relied on this very move, the Flying Thunder God Technique, to freely reap enemy heads on the battlefield.
Thus, he earned the title Konoha's Yellow Flash. He even received an honor: if you encounter the Yellow Flash on a mission, you can abandon the mission without any penalty.
He had also been coveting the Flying Thunder God Technique for a long time. Even if he might not necessarily learn it, the fact that Teacher Minato was willing to plead for him in front of the Hokage was already very meaningful.
Namikaze Minato nodded, then looked at Hatake Kakashi beside him. "I heard you have been researching a seal-less lightning release ninjutsu recently, so I prepared the experience and execution method of the Rasengan for you."
"I hope it helps you." Namikaze Minato looked at Hatake Kakashi and smiled, casually tossing him a scroll. Kakashi quickly caught it, his eyes lighting up.
"Thank you, teacher! This is a huge help! Once I develop the Chidori, I will definitely share the results with you!" Hatake Kakashi's expression was animated.
"Hmm, your seal-less jutsu is called Chidori? Isn't that a bit too plain? Do you want your teacher to name it? How about 'Lightning Flash Straight Thrust Penetrating Thunder Light Slashing Blade Strike, Slash!'" Minato's eyes lit up, he looked at Hatake Kakashi with great interest.
Hatake Kakashi's mouth twitched. He immediately felt that Chidori sounded much better. Without comparison, there is no harm. Although Teacher Minato loved naming things, this name was a bit too...
Too... childish? That should be it.
Uchiha Obito clutched his stomach laughing. Perfect, absolutely perfect. He also thought the name Teacher Minato came up with was great. During a life-or-death struggle, before you even finished saying the name, the opponent would have already used two ninjutsu!
Moreover, the level of cringe in this name made Uchiha Obito break out in a cold sweat. If Chidori was called that, its coolness factor would probably be dragged down who knows how many levels!
Rin, listening to the name Teacher Minato came up with, also couldn't hold back a laugh.
"Ahem, Teacher Minato, although your seal-less ninjutsu can give me a lot of help and inspiration, as the creator of the Chidori, I think Chidori sounds better. About renaming it, next time for sure!" Hatake Kakashi said solemnly.
There was no other way. He was scared too! Such a long skill name. If he took on students in the future, he would be too embarrassed to teach it to them!
It was hard to imagine if others found out he gave a seal-less ninjutsu such a long name in the future, they would probably laugh their heads off. Well, except for Hashirama.
"By the way, Teacher Minato, both Kakashi and I have ninjutsu to practice. What about Rin?" Uchiha Obito wanted to seize the chance to ask for more, but Rin tugged his hand, signaling him not to speak, though she felt very sweet inside.
Namikaze Minato smiled. "Originally, I wanted to teach Rin a sealing jutsu, the Five Elements Seal. But then I thought, Rin is Lady Tsunade's disciple. I shouldn't teach her arbitrarily."
Obito's eyes lit up. The Five Elements Seal? A good thing! So he asked, "Whether she learns it or not, teacher, you should ask Rin~ My master is busy taking care of my master's wife recently. My master's wife is about to give birth, so he probably has no time to teach Rin."
"Rin's medical skills are already very proficient. It wouldn't be bad for her to learn some new things appropriately, right? Right, Rin?" Uchiha Obito grinned, winking and making faces at Nohara Rin.
Nohara Rin giggled and nodded, looking at Namikaze Minato. "Teacher Minato, I have almost mastered everything Tsunade-sensei taught me. I would also like to learn some other ninjutsu to rely on for self-defense."
Namikaze Minato laughed helplessly. This Obito, he really didn't let any benefit slip by! He finally nodded. "Since that's the case, Rin, take this Sealing Jutsu Compendium and read it first. But remember, don't share it. This is a treasure of the Uzumaki clan!"
Hearing this, Nohara Rin immediately straightened her face. "Teacher, rest assured. I will be the only one to read this book. I won't show it to anyone else."
"Not even Obito?" Namikaze Minato suddenly laughed.
Nohara Rin hesitated, "This..." She looked somewhat troubled as she glanced at Uchiha Obito.
At this time, Uchiha Obito stepped forward proactively. "Teacher Minato, you know me. I hate reading the most. I won't look at it!"
Namikaze Minato laughed and scolded, "You brat! Can't I even joke? You immediately step up to help Rin out. You, you!"
Namikaze Minato smiled. Uchiha Obito scratched his head. Hatake Kakashi snorted coldly. Nohara Rin smiled brightly.
Team 7's atmosphere was really good. After a while, Namikaze Minato took Obito aside alone and began explaining the Flying Thunder God Technique to him.
The Flying Thunder God Technique was created by the Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju. First, to learn the Flying Thunder God Technique, you must learn the marking.
The marking is the Flying Thunder God Mark. Everyone's Flying Thunder God Mark is different, but their function is the same: positioning, marking.
Then, you can activate the Flying Thunder God Technique, traversing space to reach the location of the mark. As long as your chakra reserves are large enough, crossing the entire ninja world is not a problem.
The key point is whether, after traversing space, you can immediately adjust your body posture, use appropriate movements and ninjutsu combinations to deliver a fatal blow to the enemy.
Moreover, if you are at a disadvantage, you can strike once and then retreat, perfectly unharmed!
Such an introduction to the technique made Uchiha Obito's eyes shine. Such a powerful technique! Worthy of being Konoha's forbidden technique, and worthy of being Teacher Minato's trump card ninjutsu.
"Obito, the first thing you need to learn is the marking." As he spoke, Namikaze Minato's hand gently pressed on the ground. Then, a space-time mark with a slight chakra fluctuation appeared on the ground, Minato's unique space-time mark.
The "Love" symbol.
Uchiha Obito widened his three tomoe Sharingan, carefully observing the chakra and space-time aura within it.
"You try it." Namikaze Minato smiled gently, looking at Obito with encouragement in his eyes.
Uchiha Obito nodded, gathered chakra in his right hand, and slapped the ground. A mark with a space-time aura even fainter than the "Love" symbol appeared on it.
"Oh! Success on the first try!" Namikaze Minato's eyes lit up. He looked at Obito like he was his own son. He never expected Obito's space-time talent to be so strong!
"Let me see your space-time mark." Namikaze Minato smiled. Then Uchiha Obito's face turned red, and he hurriedly covered it.
Namikaze Minato was stunned. "What's the matter, Obito? You succeeded, why can't I see it? What exactly is your mark?"
Uchiha Obito scratched his head. "Teacher, I'm begging you, don't look."
Little did he know, the more Obito said this, the more Namikaze Minato wanted to see it. However, on the surface, he said, "Alright, I won't look. Next, learn the hand seals with me."
Uchiha Obito nodded, then turned to learn the hand seals with Namikaze Minato. As a result, Namikaze Minato formed a hand seal. "Flying Thunder God Technique!"
Obito froze, his face turning pale. He saw Namikaze Minato appear at the "Love" symbol mark, then turn to look at the Flying Thunder God mark Uchiha Obito had just made.
On it was written "Rin," and next to it was a drawing of Rin! Wow, he never expected this kid Obito to be quite artistic!
So Namikaze Minato took out his phone and took a picture! Then he put the phone back in his pocket. Obito's face turned purple.
Namikaze Minato smiled. "Little guy, this secret, I'll hold it over you for life!" These words, like a demon's whisper, reached Uchiha Obito's ears.
Uchiha Obito froze on the spot, utterly mortified. He looked at Namikaze Minato with humiliation. "Teacher! Delete it!"
"No, ah-hee, no, I won't!" Namikaze Minato laughed.
Uchiha Obito felt a river of sorrow flow backwards. He swore he must master the Flying Thunder God, even better than Namikaze Minato!
Then he would delete that photo! Uchiha Obito walked over to his mark, wanting to stomp it to pieces, but he couldn't bear to, because it was Rin~
He gritted his teeth, then used other soil to cover up that spot.
Namikaze Minato clicked his tongue. He never expected his disciple to love Rin so much~
"Finished dealing with it? Then get ready to continue practicing with me. Once you graduate, I'll delete that photo!" Namikaze Minato smiled.
Hearing this, Uchiha Obito's eyes lit up. "Okay! It's a deal!"
"Next are the hand seals. Watch my movements carefully." Namikaze Minato said with a smile.
