While I was training in my area, there was a lot of work going in the village to the point I even noticed it. Usually I just came here straight using the Flying Raijin jutsu but something seemed off with village today.
In the afternoon in my training area, Akane came to me running. She was quite happy and boasting saying she had a mission.
I was flabbergasted by this news with little bit of envy. I asked why she was the only one to receive the mission when we are practically a team.
She just laughed saying I don't know and she was busy saying maybe I was not her match or I was not suitable.
I asked " What kind of mission is it, is there any importance to it " clearly confused.
She replied " This mission is a big mission and is very important to the village besides I will be going out of the village for the mission " while jer nose was beaming upwards.
I asked " what kind of mission is it, is it dangerous, if so you should just stay out of it you are not strong enough you know " while worrying.
She replied clearly iritated " don't you have confidence in me, why are you saying am weak, am clearly special jounin level and besides this mission is not very dangerous, maybe it does not require fighting but mission is a mission, a battle can occur at any place " while pouting.
I sighed with a relieved expression and said " even if it is not dangerous you have to be extra care and I will give a jutsu that can make you escape at any place so stay here for few hours with me before you go " she smiled when I said this.
She said " The mission is about escorting someone to the village but we don't anything about the missions content other than that they are important and welcomed to village besides the village seems weird these days haven't you seen " at the last part while questioning.
I replied " I was not in the village much these days so I haven't noticed much but if even the village is prepared then that person is either a kage or daimyo of one the elemental nations, so you have to be careful when escorting them and don't play around. Act like a true ninja and look out for your discipline in the mission " while being serious.
She replied " Don't worry I will act like how the anbus act and be a professional ninja besides hurry I want the escaping means you are trying to make for me " while acting naughty.
I made a Flying Thunder God jutsu tag seal and gave her the seal while I inscribed a tag seal on her arm.
Out of cautiousness I told her not to move infront of the people and use smoke before using the technique.
Initially this technique cannot be used by someone who doesn't understand the principles of the jutsu but I modified it in simple terms.
She doesn't activate the jutsu with her chakra as that would be invalidate the justu instead I stored my chakra in tag seal of the Flying Thunder God jutsu so that when it comes in contact with other chakras in this case hers they would be summoned to my location and that's the safety measures I gave her.
She has been studying with me and training with me most of the times so she knows that I have this jutsu and she was envious of it. Now she has become an expert in fuinjutsu alas but an inferior one to me.
I have had a sudden enlightenment one day when I was training with my basics techniques so I had to try and develop in the direction of enlightenment which I called phantom clone jutsu.
It was a kind of assassination and somehow a spatial looking technique that i derived from the prodigy of the Uchiha clan in the future, Shisui the teleporter. Although he had the strongest genjutsu type sharingan, he was famous for his body flicker technique.
His sharingan allowed him to combine the body flicker technique and the simple clone jutsu to create his own version of body flicker technique which seemed like he was teleporting rather than body flicker technique.
He was moving so fast that he left behind an after image and his clones which had no physical components. This was incredibly versatile and you don't which one would attack and every one could attack at same time, but it needed incredible skill set to make it happen.
He had create insights of the sharingan and the speed so he could make it. I copied his way and made one but it was not suitable fir as it was his and it needed constant concentration which I didn't have so I had to create one in more efficient way.
Which led to the idea and enlightenment of the phantom clone jutsu. It was more difficult to create yet more easier once done.
It was still not created but once created it would be a legendary jutsu in the elemental nations. Just imagine Obito Uchiha's mangekyo sharingan like jutsu. You can't touch me but I can.
This technique hooks me in more than the others but I was taking my time in creating it and perfecting it.
This year was Kushina Uzumaki's Fifth year birthday and my Nine year and half birthday.
So I was expecting the start of the war in this year.
Konoha might come for the Jinchuriki candidate in Uzushio and I had all my abilities and arsenal ready for war so that I can become even stronger and safer.
The war and pressure will be a stimulation and an acceleration to my thinking and learning abilities. It will be more of an opportunity than demise for me now but I can't say that about my clan.
So instead of focusing on my self now I should focus on the village the well-being of the island. This has become more than survival for me now. It became my pride and reality.
