Chapter 117 Konoha Year 42, Gojo Yoru's Perverse Pleasures
"Yoru, you and Kushina go and capture him. I will send ANBU to assist you!"
Without the slightest hesitation, Hiruzen Sarutobi immediately used his two strongest trump cards.
Gojo Yoru asked, "Hokage-sama, do you suspect that the Jonin named Hiruko is the mastermind behind the Impure World Reincarnation technique?"
Before Hiruzen Sarutobi could answer, Yoru Gojo began to analyze: "If he really is the mastermind behind the technique, it means that he has two trump cards, the Second Tsuchikage and the Second Hokage, and he must have already left the Flying Thunder God Technique formula in the outside world. Sending more people to capture him will only be a futile effort."
"Moreover, the mastermind behind the scenes is able to devise almost unbeatable combination techniques and tactics to deal with me, which means that he is a calm and quick-thinking assassin. If we blindly capture him, we might fall into his trap and needlessly lose a powerful fighting force."
Hiruzen Sarutobi gradually calmed down, reverting to his politician persona, and nodded in agreement: "What you said makes a lot of sense; we do need to be cautious."
After speaking, Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at the ANBU member who was still kneeling on one knee and asked, "Have you found out what forbidden technique Hiruko stole? Is the forbidden scroll of the Impure World Reincarnation technique still there? Does the seal record any unsealing techniques performed by other chakra?"
"Lord Hokage, please wait a moment—"
The ANBU member didn't answer immediately. Instead, he reached out and touched the wireless earpiece hidden in his mask and hair, then reported respectfully, "According to the investigation, only one forbidden technique scroll is missing from the Forbidden Technique Library. It's the incomplete Oni-Garaku no Jutsu. The forbidden technique scroll for the Impure World Reincarnation Technique is not missing. The chakra on the seal is still there, and there are no traces of the unsealing technique."
Hiruzen Sarutobi breathed a sigh of relief, his unease dissipating considerably.
From this perspective, it's highly unlikely that Hiruko was the mastermind behind the Impure World Reincarnation technique.
The next second, Hiruzen Sarutobi's heart sank again.
If it's not Hiruko, then it most likely means he's an outsider.
In particular, this mastermind behind the scenes has a strong desire to kill Gojo Yoru, and is highly likely to be from an enemy country.
Could they really be from Kumogakure?
If not, then who could it be?
Danzo?
Hiruzen Sarutobi felt an unbearable headache.
Regardless, the priority right now is to deal with Hiruko's matter.
Just as Hiruzen Sarutobi was about to say something, an Anbu member reported again: "The Hokage, Orochimaru, Jiraiya, and Tsunade have gone to pursue Hiruko."
Hiruzen Sarutobi's furrowed brows relaxed slightly: "In that case, let's leave Hiruko to Orochimaru and the others. After all, they are classmates and friends."
Hiruzen Sarutobi felt a pang of self-reproach, never expecting that he would misjudge someone so badly.
He was transferred to guard the Forbidden Techniques Library because Hiruko had a good relationship with the Sarutobi team, and because during the Second Shinobi World War, sensory ninjas were sent to the battlefield.
Unexpectedly, it almost led to a major disaster.
If Hiruko is indeed the mastermind behind this, he is essentially creating a formidable enemy and a huge potential danger for Gojo Yoru and Konoha.
Gojo didn't volunteer to help either.
He knew very well who was behind the Impure World Reincarnation technique. If he weren't worried about that unsolvable combination technique coming again and wanting to search the entire Hidden Leaf Village to eliminate the White Zetsu, he wouldn't have planned to report this to Hiruzen Sarutobi.
Gojo Yoru actually had a pretty good impression of Hiruko, a guy with a somewhat tragic air about him.
If he hadn't awakened the Space-Time Bloodline Limit, his strategy would have been to become the ultimate form, Hiruko.
Moreover, those who can become the BOSS of the movie are not ordinary people. If possible, Gojo Yoru also wants to arrange for Hiruko to be used by him.
This makes it even more unwise to take action.
So, Gojo Yoru changed the subject, saying, "Hokage-sama, Kushina and I will search the village first. After this incident is over, you can convene a Jonin meeting and let me search the territories of the various ninja clans."
"Thank you for your help during this time. Please let me know if you need anything." Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded.
Clearing the mines from the village was more important than dealing with Beiluhu.
After all, just as Gojo Yoru said, Hiruko is indeed the mastermind behind the scenes, so there's no need to chase after him.
If not, it would be enough to let Sarutobi's team hunt him down. Orochimaru and his group, who are classmates and friends with Hiruko, might be able to persuade him to turn over a new leaf.
As for what kind of forbidden technique the Demon Sprout Technique was, Hiruzen Sarutobi couldn't recall it for the time being.
An unfinished forbidden technique suggests that it does not possess much power, and may even just be an inspiration.
Beiruhu's defection was likely due to fear of punishment.
With Hiruzen Sarutobi's permission, Yoru Gojo began using Hollowfication and Spatial Awareness to clear mines from Konoha.
Unfortunately, his spatial perception isn't enough to cover the entire Hidden Leaf Village, otherwise it wouldn't be so troublesome.
However, in this ninja world, very few senses can cover the entire Leaf Village. After all, it takes ten kilometers to reach the central tower of the Death Forest.
Having almost been tricked by Madara Uchiha, Yoru Gojo will no longer underestimate this ninja world's demon.
The other party clearly takes me very seriously, even resorting to such insidious tactics. I really won't be able to sleep until I've turned Konoha upside down.
Who knows if Madara Uchiha, unable to defeat him, might set his sights on Kushina Uzumaki, wanting him to experience the pain of loss?
Even after the Nine-Tails died, it was able to be resurrected in the ninja world. If Kushina Uzumaki were broken down into atomic states, even Yoru Gojo couldn't revive her using Nagato's Rinnegan.
Therefore, Gojo Yoru not only had to search Konoha thoroughly, but also had to be prepared for Madara Uchiha to take action against those he cherished.
Over the next few days, Gojo Yoru indeed sensed familiar spots of light on many civilians, a characteristic of White Zetsu clones using the Spore Technique to parasitize.
Instead of attacking the civilians, Gojo Yoru informed Hiruzen Sarutobi, and together with the Barrier Team and the Sealing Team, imprisoned the civilians, forcing out the White Zetsu clones that were parasitizing their bodies.
This time, instead of giving them a chance to turn into plants, Gojo Yoru used a sealing technique to seal the White Zetsu clones.
Unfortunately, these White Zetsu clones lacked brains, rendering the Yamanaka clan's mind-reading and illusion techniques ineffective against them, thus preventing them from gathering any information.
Gojo Yoru was not surprised; he did this simply to make an example of someone.
During the subsequent mine clearance, Gojo Yoru indeed could not sense the familiar light spots, which meant that the White Zetsu clones who had infiltrated Konoha using the Spore Technique had either escaped or used the Disguise Technique for a more advanced disguise.
Spatial perception completely counters the techniques of mayflies and spores, but it is powerless against the technique of disguise.
After clearing the mines, Gojo Yoru used the Spirit Transformation Technique to possess Kushina Uzumaki and help her develop a version of Kagura's Mind's Eye that senses good and evil.
Once Kushina Uzumaki masters the Kagura Mind's Eye technique, Konoha will be her base, and Madara Uchiha won't be able to interfere.
Gojo Yoru suddenly had a premonition.
The Third Shinobi World War, which is very likely to break out in the future, will be a contest between him and Madara Uchiha.
Gojo Yoru, who had enjoyed smooth sailing for the past few years and whose strength had reached the pinnacle of the ninja world, finally felt a bit of pressure again.
But more than anything, it was a sense of fighting spirit and excitement.
Things are different now. When Gojo Yoru was still weak, he just wanted to survive and develop.
Now that his strength has reached the pinnacle of the ninja world, Gojo Yoru needs pressure to force himself to grow stronger.
Despite the favorable circumstances of the past few years, aside from developing spatial perception and a spacetime version of spiritification techniques, Gojo Yoru hasn't made much progress.
Some inspirations cannot be developed due to limitations in space-time chakra and talent.
Unlike during the Second Shinobi World War, when the pressure from Hanzo of the Salamander and the exposure of his space-time bloodline limit caused him to grow rapidly, Gojo Yoru's second enhancement of his talent brought him mental agility in order to deal with Hanzo of the Salamander's Body Flicker Technique and assassination techniques. This allowed him to develop laser beams and the Chidori series.
To avoid assassination, he thought of spiritualization techniques, which led to the idea of developing spatial perception.
The ninjutsu that Gojo Yoru developed were either inspired by certain anime series from his previous life, or by external pressures that made him constantly look for his own flaws and then try his best to make up for them.
Being targeted by a powerful enemy has both disadvantages and advantages.
The downside is that carelessness could lead to disaster.
The advantage is that Gojo Yoru might one day have a flash of inspiration due to his enhanced mental agility, and then slowly develop it.
Gojo Yoru suddenly felt an urgent need for the third evolution to arrive quickly.
Having already verified it twice, he is now 100% certain that the third evolution will be a huge watershed moment.
Just like in cultivation novels, one advances from the early stage to the middle stage, and from the middle stage to the late stage of a great cultivator.
In the ninja world, this is equivalent to the dimensional difference between Kage-level and Super Kage-level, and then from Super Kage-level to Six Paths-level.
Compared to the overall improvement in talent, the increase in space-time chakra capacity is only secondary.
Of course, this is just an illusion; both are very important.
Only when both are improved simultaneously will Gojo Yoru have enough talent and energy to materialize certain incredible ideas.
Time flies, and before we knew it, it was March of Konoha Year 42.
Madara Uchiha's almost unbeatable combination techniques and tactics terrified Kushina Uzumaki.
Having come so close to death for the first time, the girl no longer cherished her last mission time, but instead had a direction to strive for. For the past six months, she has been fighting with Kurama and stealing the Nine-Tails' chakra to train her Kagura Mind's Eye, a version that allows her to perceive good and evil.
This is also an advantage of having a strong enemy.
In recent years, Kushina Uzumaki has become extremely arrogant.
In terms of combat strength, apart from Gojo Yoru, there are few people in the entire Hidden Leaf Village who can compare to her.
Looking across the entire village of Whirlpool Hidden Village, there are very few geniuses who can awaken three unique abilities simultaneously.
-
Having awakened three major abilities, she is virtually unmatched in the areas of healing, perception, and sealing.
Kushina Uzumaki, who was more versatile than even Jonin and Elite Jonin, believed that she had no weaknesses.
Unexpectedly, this all-around and powerful woman was almost instantly killed.
The lingering fear and terror caused Kushina Uzumaki to have nightmares about being instantly killed for a long time, waking up in fright many times, and she could only fall asleep while holding Yoru Gojo.
If Kurama hadn't been imprisoned by the Bagua Seal, and if Gojo Yakuza hadn't been able to reinforce the seal in time, it would have found many opportunities to break through it.
Gojo Yoru also didn't tell Kushina Uzumaki that the person who assassinated them wasn't actually in Konoha, but rather Madara Uchiha, who was hiding somewhere.
With an unknown but formidable enemy spurring her on, Kushina Uzumaki was motivated to become stronger and quickly realized her potential to reach the Kage level.
Once she has mastered the Kagura Mind's Eye, a form of perception of good and evil, Gojo Yoru will have her train in the Sage Mode of Shikkotsu Forest, then practice the five nature transformations, develop various kinds of Rasengan shuriken, and finally continuously absorb Kurama's chakra to see if she can, like the Uchiha clan's Mangekyou Sharingan, utilize the vast sea of Kurama's chakra to activate "Kurama Mode," which doesn't require any bond with Kurama—that is, complete tailed beast transformation.
Kurama is the most unique of the nine tailed beasts. Not only is its chakra reserves astonishing, but half of the Nine-Tails is on par with the complete Eight-Tails, and its power is even more exaggerated than that of the Eight-Tails.
Furthermore, the Nine-Tails' complete transformation into a tailed beast is different from other Jinchūriki who transform into tailed beasts; instead, it is a golden energy form.
It was this energy form that inspired Gojo Yoru.
Susanoo is the manifestation of Yin Release chakra, while the complete tailed beast transformation of the Nine-Tails is the beast-like transformation of the Nine-Tails chakra.
Why can't the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki be like the other Jinchuriki of the Tailed Beasts, who don't need to form a bond with the Tailed Beast, but instead suppress the Tailed Beast's will with their own through arduous training and control the Tailed Beast's body with human consciousness?
Isn't the Complete Susanoo of the Uchiha clan based on the same principle?
Once Kushina Uzumaki can achieve this level, she will not only be able to pilot a Gundam, but also unleash a Tailed Beast Ball by herself, and even create a Sage Art: Five Elements Rasenshuriken as large as a Tailed Beast Ball.
This is the ability to rewrite map sections, and it's also a standard feature of super-shadow level powerhouses.
At that time, Nagato will not be a match for her.
Even if the Preta Path can absorb a lot of ninjutsu, it still needs time to absorb it. During this time, it will be in a stiff state. Even if it can absorb ninjutsu while releasing Shinra Tensei, Kushina Uzumaki has more than one way to deal with it.
If Kushina Uzumaki can achieve this level of strength, her power will surpass that of Naruto and Sasuke during their battle against Obito, and will be infinitely close to that of Madara Uchiha during the Valley of the End.
Even among those at the Super Shadow level, they would be among the best.
Kushina Uzumaki is striving to become stronger.
Having failed to capture Hiruko, Orochimaru has embarked on new research beyond space-time.
That was the sealed-away White Zetsu clone.
Orochimaru was very interested in this creature that was very similar to humans but had no brain.
After just a few days of research, he came to a conclusion.
The person behind the Impure World Reincarnation technique is definitely not from Konoha.
The existence of these creatures, and the methods they possess, is simply something from another dimension.
If they were created by someone else, that person must be either an extremely skilled scientist, an unfathomable powerhouse, or even some unknown force.
The Impure World Reincarnation technique and this creature might just be one of his/their methods.
At the same time, Orochimaru also became interested in the Impure World Reincarnation technique and obtained permission from Hiruzen Sarutobi to research forbidden techniques.
Even though his original fate changed, Orochimaru still obtained the Impure World Reincarnation technique, only the method and treatment were different.
Gojo Yoru hasn't been idle in the past six months either.
Besides helping Kushina and Konan become stronger, he is also improving his own foundation.
Although Gojo Yoru's strength is difficult to improve due to a lack of talent and energy, his foundation has reached the limit of a second evolution in the past few years.
Now, Gojou's attributes are complete in terms of Yin and Yang and the Five Elements, and he has mastered seven kinds of nature transformations.
With his chakra control at the pinnacle of the ninja world, Gojo Yoru mastered the nature transformations of the five elements to the point where he could perform the three-elemental composite ninjutsu.
The reason why I can't perform the Five Elements Combined Ninjutsu is not because I lack talent, but because I don't have enough chakra.
In addition to the three-elemental combined ninjutsu, Gojo Yoru can also fuse space-time chakra with some of the five elemental ninjutsu, no longer limited to the Chidori series of lightning release.
Last year's ninjutsu that cut through the Dust Release: Limit Separation Technique was actually space-time chakra attached to the Wind Release: Wind Cut Technique.
Although Gojo Yoru's slash was small, it was able to cut through the katana of a fully-formed Susanoo and the earth-shattering slash.
Now, six months later, Gojo Yoru has reached the bottleneck of his current limitations, and is only one third evolution away from raising his potential to a new level.
October 20, Konoha 42.
It's graduation season again.
All sixth-grade students in the ninja villages are facing the first major challenge of their ninja careers.
Overcoming this hurdle will transform a trainee ninja into a true ninja.
If you can't overcome that hurdle, you can repeat a year or accept an invitation from another department to become a special type of ninja. The maximum potential for the future is only a special Jonin. The hope of becoming an all-around Jonin is almost zero.
-
Compared to the anxious sixth graders, the geniuses in the elite class who applied to graduate early in the third grade were full of confidence.
Even Obito Uchiha, who was a member of the Uchiha clan but was a bottom-of-the-barrel student in the original story, was affected by the butterfly effect, found his area of expertise, unleashed his potential ahead of time, and gained the ability to graduate early.
All the geniuses who applied for early graduation passed the assessment.
To repay Hiruzen Sarutobi for his mentorship, Yoru Gojo officially transitioned to instructing Jonin. In addition to Asuma Sarutobi, whom he had already chosen, he also presented the names of two students he had selected to Hiruzen Sarutobi.
As one of Konoha's core strengths, Gojo Yoru naturally possesses the privilege of selecting students.
In particular, since Hiruzen Sarutobi wanted him to become Asuma Sarutobi's mentor Jonin, he would definitely agree to some of Yoru Gojo's capricious actions.
When Hiruzen Sarutobi saw the names of the other two subordinates chosen by Yoru Gojo, he felt somewhat troubled and had a headache.
His plans were disrupted.
But he had to give Gojo Yoru face, so he had to reassign the classes.
Then Gojo Yoru triggered another butterfly effect, only this time it was intentional, a kind of perverse pleasure after he became the pinnacle of the ninja world.
