Chapter 73 Hidden Gains, Reactions from All Sides
Besides these visible gains, there are naturally some gains that are not yet visible.
For example, now that he has saved Minato Namikaze and Kushina Uzumaki, the benefits he can gain will definitely be substantial.
In addition, he is undoubtedly a major contributor to the Nine-Tailed Fox's rampage.
Even if a representative is to be appointed, his reward cannot be reduced.
Therefore, from this point onward, his path to advancement should be unobstructed, and even if there are obstacles, Minato Namikaze will be able to withstand them.
Moreover, with so many deaths and injuries caused by the Nine-Tailed Fox's rampage, there are plenty of vacant positions, and it's impossible for those advisors to control them all themselves.
With his higher position, some things naturally became easier for him to do.
For example, it's time to investigate the news about Yamato, and also to investigate where the Hashira cells are stored.
Of course, it's not entirely without its downsides.
The downside is that Minato Namikaze was still alive, which caused a huge change in the landscape of the ninja world afterward, and he probably couldn't know exactly how the story would develop.
However, in Yuan Tuoye's view, these are not actually major problems.
Even if he doesn't know the specific plot, he still knows the hidden powers in Naruto and is basically clear about the characters' motivations. Even if there are changes, the fundamentals cannot be changed.
Moreover, his appearance will inevitably change the plot sooner or later.
It's just a matter of sooner or later.
Furthermore, Minato Namikaze wasn't as old as the Third Hokage, so there were things he could hide from the Third Hokage but not necessarily from Minato.
Therefore, we need to be more cautious in our actions in the future.
However, Yuan Tuoye had already considered this point. He had basically completed his tasks in Konoha, and he no longer needed to take action in Konoha.
If Yamato wanted to make a move, he would have to do so outside the village. And even if he were discovered at that point, wouldn't it be easier for him to leave Konoha?
Since he's already got Yamato and Hashirama's cells, there's no need for him to stay in Konoha.
After thinking it over, Gen Takuno took out the scroll containing the contents of the Book of Sealing, found the Spirit Transformation Technique, and began to read it.
The art of spiritualization can completely separate the practitioner's spiritual energy from their physical energy, and materialize the spiritual energy into a "spirit body".
Spirits disregard physical distance limitations and can reach their target directly to attack, or possess the target's body to control its actions, or even directly damage its internal organs, causing its death.
The actions of spirits cannot be detected by conventional means of perception, and even those who possess the Rinnegan find them difficult to detect.
However, the Spirit Transformation Technique also has a fatal flaw, just like the Mind Transfer Technique of the Mountain Clan.
That is, when casting the Spirit Transformation Technique, the caster's physical body is completely without consciousness or any means of defense. If no one is protecting the caster at this time, the enemy can easily destroy the caster's physical body.
As the inventor of the Spirit Transformation Technique, Kato Dan died precisely because of this flaw, and even his internal organs were directly destroyed.
As we can see from Kato Dan's experience, the spirit created after the Spirit Transformation Technique cannot remain in another person's body for long.
Otherwise, after discovering that his body had been damaged, Kato Dan could have simply stopped returning to his own body and instead found an enemy, killed their spirit, and then taken over their body to survive.
The most famous technique that allows one to forcibly possess another's body is Orochimaru's Reanimation Jutsu.
Yuan Tuoye frowned at this moment. It seemed that the Spirit Transformation Technique could only be learned by the physical body.
No matter how magical a shadow clone may be, it is still a product of chakra, and chakra is a combination of physical and mental energy. Learning the Spirit Transformation Technique requires separating physical and mental energy.
Wouldn't it be directly canceled if I put it on the shadow clone?
It is impossible to maintain shadow clones using only physical energy.
In addition, there is the Eight Gates Formation, a taijutsu that also requires his physical body to practice. This adds up to two more ninjutsu that require his physical body to practice.
Yuan Tuoye rubbed his head. Not being able to use shadow clones meant that his learning speed would be slowed down.
However, it's worth a try. After all, the spiritual energy of the shadow clone is actually his own spiritual energy. Even if the shadow clone is dispelled, that part of the spiritual energy might return to the original body.
Once you have an idea, you should do it. Yuan Tuoye also began to try, creating shadow clones to learn the Spirit Transformation Technique together.
The Land of Lightning, the office of the Hidden Cloud Village's Kumokage.
"That's a lot?!" (What did you say?)
The Fourth Raikage glared angrily at his secretary, Mabui, standing beside him.
With a hint of helplessness, Mabui once again reported on the Nine-Tails' attack on Konoha, which had caused serious casualties.
During this Nine-Tails attack, many Jonin from Konoha died here, not to mention the Chunin and Genin below them, who suffered countless casualties.
"Is it really true?" The Fourth Raikage was speechless at the news. He hadn't expected that something like this would happen in Konoha during this peaceful period. It was truly—
Heaven is truly helping the Cloud Ninja!
"Is the newly appointed Fourth Hokage dead?" The Fourth Raikage looked at Mabui with a hint of anticipation.
Mabui shook his head and said, "According to the scouts' reports, both the Third and Fourth Hokage survived this Nine-Tails attack." Mabui understood what the Fourth Raikage meant.
Whenever a war breaks out, Minato Namikaze will inevitably be an unavoidable and difficult point to conquer.
If Minato Namikaze had died here, attacking Konoha would have been several levels easier.
"They're still alive?" The Fourth Raikage sighed with a hint of regret, then said angrily, "I think they were just cowards who let their men rush in so they could save themselves!"
Mabui found the Fourth Raikage's complaints somewhat amusing, but he wasn't worried that the other party would lose his temper.
The Fourth Raikage may appear rough around the edges, but he's actually quite shrewd; he's not like his brainless Eight-Tails brother.
It's not that Killer Bee is bad; the fact that the other party is brainless seems to be quite compatible with the Eight-Tails, making the Eight-Tails much more stable.
"Lord Raikage, what should we do next?" Mabui asked.
After thinking for a while, the Fourth Raikage sighed. If Minato Namikaze were to die, he would not hesitate to issue an order to attack the Land of Fire, determined to take a piece of the Land of Fire no matter what.
However, now that Minato Namikaze is still alive, the threat posed by the enemy on the battlefield is too great, and there is also the Third Hokage who can be stationed in the rear to coordinate resources.
At this point, it wouldn't be easy to bite off a piece of flesh from the Land of Fire; one wrong move and you might break their teeth.
"Send some out to harass their mission system and test Konoha's reaction," the Fourth Raikage finally said.
"yes!"
Compared to the reaction of the Cloud Ninja, the Iwa Ninja were much calmer.
The Third Tsuchikage, Onoki, gloated for a while after learning about what had happened in Konoha.
However, after learning that Minato Namikaze was still alive, he gave up the idea of attacking Konoha.
Because during the Third Shinobi World War, his family was the one most severely killed by Minato Namikaze, and he was the one who knew best the enemy's power on the battlefield.
Therefore, after learning about this, he had absolutely no intention of starting a war.
However, some things can't be obtained only through war. The situation in Konoha might allow them to seize some missions that originally belonged only to Konoha.
While the returns may not be as high, this approach is relatively more secure.
As for the other two countries, one lost its Kazekage in the Third Shinobi World War and is still recuperating, while the other is in extreme internal turmoil and naturally cannot concern itself with external affairs.
Konoha a few days after the Nine-Tails' rampage.
At this time, Konoha was in dire need of reconstruction, and many ninjas had begun to serve as laborers, working hard to restore the houses one by one.
As Gen Takuno walked along the roads of Konoha, he couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness upon seeing the destroyed houses.
No matter when, the most unlucky ones are always ordinary people.
Actually, things are not bad inside Konoha. The environment is suitable, and the leaders above are quite concerned about their image, so they would not openly do anything to harm civilians.
He didn't go to work today because the entire sealing team had their own things to do. Although they weren't needed to set up the barrier, their efforts were still required.
During this Nine-Tails' rampage, the sealing team suffered some casualties, mostly unlucky individuals who were hit by rubble thrown by the Nine-Tails.
Or perhaps it was directly reduced to ashes by the Tailed Beast Ball along the path of that terrifying Tailed Beast Ball.
However, as the leader of the sealing team, he still has some privileges and doesn't need to do these things.
Moreover, ninjas truly deserve to be called the world's greatest workforce; thanks to their efforts, Konoha, which was nearly half destroyed, is miraculously on the verge of being fully restored.
Gen Takuno glanced at the Hokage Building.
These past few days, Minato Namikaze has barely slept a wink. He's been racking his brains over everything, from battle reports on the front lines to negotiating with various wealthy individuals to convince them to continue believing in Konoha's strength and not to transfer the mission to other countries.
And today is also a special day.
At this moment, Yuan Tuoye was not wearing his usual green vest, but had changed into a black outfit.
These are clothes worn to express mourning.
On this day, everyone in Konoha stopped and headed towards the largest cemetery in Konoha.
As the highest leader of Konoha, Minato Namikaze had already donned a black mourning outfit and stood at the very front.
Yuan Tuoye also quietly found his place and stood in it.
They were all mourning for the ninjas and civilians who had perished in the Nine-Tails' attack.
This was a ceremony, a ceremony filled with an atmosphere of sorrow.
Such an atmosphere made even a hard-hearted person like Yuan Tuoye feel a little sentimental, but this sentimentality could not shake his determination to do what he had decided to do.
