Chapter 400 Returning to the Village, Super S-Rank Mission: Changing the Past
"That concludes the account of our two missions. This is the payment and Xingying's letter of gratitude, Lord Fifth..."
In the Hokage's office, after Ishikawa's subtle report, he handed over the letter of payment and then waited for Kakashi to divide the money and go home.
"Honestly, should I say you guys are lucky or unlucky? Both times you encountered clients who were the masterminds behind the scenes, yet you still managed to complete the missions and get your rewards, without bringing shame to the village or letting the bad guys' schemes succeed."
Kakashi was speechless after reading the letter, but he still made a note for the four of them in the mission log. "Then, these two missions will be classified as B-rank missions. Your rewards will be paid according to the procedure. Any questions?"
"No," the four Ishikawas replied in unison. They had already received 900,000 taels of extra income in advance, so what objections could they possibly have?
"Ishikawa, stay here. The rest of you go back and rest!" Kakashi waved his hand and said. Karin and Hinata immediately turned around and left.
Ino, however, remained completely still, prompting Kakashi to look at her curiously. "Ino, is there something else?"
Upon hearing Kakashi's question, Ino glanced at Ishikawa and finally gritted her teeth, saying, "Hokage-sama, I want to train in the Spirit Transformation Technique with Ishikawa-senpai."
"Spiritualization Technique??"
Kakashi's breath hitched; he hadn't expected Ino to have this idea.
Kakashi glanced at Ishikawa, who was winking at him, and instantly understood!
Although this is an S-rank ninjutsu from the Book of Seals, Ishikawa wouldn't pursue the matter if he wanted to teach it to him, and Ishikawa himself was well aware of this.
Ino's question to him now is clearly Ishikawa's way of making excuses!
Since that's the case...
"Sure, but you'll have to ask him about this." Kakashi casually agreed, his gaze playful, despite Ishikawa's dark expression.
The Ino-Shika-Cho trio have always stood together through thick and thin. With Ino's connection, Shikamaru and Choji's Ino-Shika-Cho trio is secure. Why wouldn't he take on this side job?
As for Ishikawa? Heh, teacher, I'm helping you solidify your political position. Kid, you're still too young and naive...
"Thank you, Hokage-sama." Ino, unaware of Kakashi's deeper considerations, immediately beamed and turned to give Ishikawa a smile. "The Hokage-sama has agreed, so, Ishikawa-senpai, you..."
“Alright, then come find me when you have time. But let me make it clear beforehand, even with my guidance, you might not be able to learn the Spirit Transformation Technique.” Ishikawa nodded helplessly, making Ino both overjoyed and apprehensive.
"Hmph, I'll definitely make you look at me in a new light, Ishikawa-senpai."
With a proud shout, Ino turned and left, filled with anticipation.
If she learns this, she'll be able to surpass Sakura and catch up with Sasuke! Then… hehehe…
"Teacher, you're really quite boring, to have given me such trouble." Just as the door closed, Ishikawa sighed and complained to Kakashi.
Although having a beautiful girl by his side to add some charm wouldn't be bad, he really wasn't in the mood right now...
It wasn't that he was showing off, but rather that he was worried he wouldn't be able to control himself and would cause trouble for himself.
"Well, you could have refused, I didn't say you had to agree." Kakashi casually shifted the blame, then his expression turned serious as he looked at the speechless Ishikawa.
"That meteorite 'star,' are you really going to use it to cultivate the Peacock Mystic Technique?"
Seeing Kakashi's serious and direct gaze, Ishikawa, already prepared, shrugged and said, "Teacher, you know I'm the Jinchuriki of the One-Tailed Beast. How can I resist Akatsuki's capture if I don't increase my strength? But don't worry, that kind of radiation won't harm me. I know what I'm doing."
"Is that so?" Kakashi's pupils contracted, and he couldn't help but be moved.
So that's how it is. I didn't expect that Ishikawa wanted to train with "stars" to resist Akatsuki. In other words, he was carrying out his Will of Fire to protect Konoha.
"Watch your step, Ishikawa. I'll always be your strong support!" Kakashi gripped the corner of the table and stood up, his voice ringing out.
It seems that he, the teacher, has been a bit lax!
He's been feeling a bit too relaxed and lazy these past few days because of Hua Ling's pregnancy, but he can't keep going like this...
As a teacher, how can I let my students put pressure on me? That's really wrong of me.
"Yes, I understand." Ishikawa nodded slightly, and after seeing that Kakashi had nothing else to do, he hurriedly turned around and went home.
He couldn't use "Star" to train in Star Ninja Village before, but he can't afford to delay any longer!
Ishikawa only gave himself one week to master the Peacock Technique, then continued to advance the Flying Thunder God Technique, and would explore it in greater depth later when he had more time!
[However, this training can be shared with Rin. Being able to fly is always a good trump card, and Rin needs it too.] Walking down the street, Ishikawa made a decision as his thoughts raced.
"Huh? Sasuke??"
Just as Ishikawa walked through the streets and alleys to his doorstep, he unexpectedly saw a familiar figure and couldn't help but call out.
"Senior brother, you're finally back!" Upon hearing the voice, the dejected Sasuke immediately turned around and exclaimed in surprise.
"Why aren't you cultivating? What are you doing at my doorstep?" Ishikawa asked as he took out his keys and went to open the door, a slight thought stirring in his heart.
"Hmm, come in and we'll talk!" As he spoke, the door creaked open, welcoming Sasuke inside.
"Um, the training and missions these days have been so boring! So I'm asking, senior brother, who is the teacher you said you found for me?" Sasuke said bluntly as he entered the room.
[As expected, this guy couldn't hold back anymore!] Ishikawa thought to himself, there's still a month to go before the three-month agreement was reached...
"Um, if you think it's not appropriate right now, could you give me a mission to gather information about Akatsuki? How about Kisame Hoshigaki? I can go to Kirigakure to gather information about him." Seeing that Ishikawa remained silent, Sasuke quickly tried to speak.
Compared to that teacher, he was actually more interested in gathering information about Akatsuki. More precisely, information about Kisame, Itachi's partner!
"No need for that. I've already handed over the intelligence gathering for Akatsuki to someone else." Ishikawa refused decisively. Letting this guy out now would only lead to who knows what trouble he'd cause.
That being the case...
"Sasuke, I have a super S-rank mission for you that concerns the future of the ninja world. But before that, can you trust me?"
"This mission is a top-secret mission that even Kakashi-sensei doesn't know about!"
"That's a chance that could directly change the Akatsuki organization, giving you the opportunity to change the Uchiha clan and your own tragic fate!!"
"Change, the tragedy of me and the Uchiha?" Sasuke's pupils contracted and his gaze became strange. The Uchiha clan had been wiped out eight years ago, what could possibly change?
Is my senior brother feeling dizzy?
Just as Sasuke was about to press for answers, he saw Ishikawa Takeshi's spirit leave his body and enter his sea of consciousness.
"I have a way to send you back to the past!!"
