Naruto: Uchiha Youngjo's Konoha Spring

Chapter 89 A Certain Scientific Railgun (2 in 1)

Kakashi looked at Uchiha Tokou. To be honest, their situations were very similar to some extent. Both of them possessed the Sharingan, used Lightning Release as their main means of attack, and had some knowledge of swordsmanship.

Therefore, Uchiha Douguang should have a way to help him improve his strength.

"Although you have used the Sharingan left to you by my clan brother very well, you are too obsessed with the ordinary Uchiha fighting style." Uchiha Douguang said, "Using the Sharingan to copy ninjutsu is certainly useful, but your chakra capacity cannot support the huge consumption of temporarily copied ninjutsu. You must know that even the real Uchiha clan, when facing a strong enemy, only uses a few ninjutsu that they have honed over the years." Uchiha Douguang said.

"So, what you should improve now is your control over chakra." After saying that, Uchiha Douguang formed a seal.

Sticky lightning appeared beside Uchiha Tokou, and then condensed into a human figure. Afterwards, the details of the person transformed by the deep blue lightning gradually became clear. Kakashi was surprised to find that the lightning man in front of him was exactly the same as him, and then he showed a surprised expression.

At this moment, the expression on the face of the lightning man in front of him also changed, exactly the same as his.

"This..." Kakashi was so shocked by Uchiha Toguro's move that he couldn't help but pull up his forehead protector and open his Sharingan wide.

What Uchiha Tokou used was not a lightning clone, nor even a ninjutsu. It was simply the precise control of the form and nature of chakra. Although this method was useless in battle, this kind of precise control over every detail was something that even Tsunade, who was famous for her control over chakra, was far inferior to him, right?

Uchiha Douguang snapped his fingers, and the person formed by lightning disappeared instantly. Uchiha Douguang smiled and said to Kakashi: "If you can do this, then you can do this with very little chakra."

Uchiha Douguang took out a kunai from his ninja tool bag, and then used a little lightning chakra to construct an electromagnetic field.

Under Kakashi's ghostly gaze, the kunai that had been released from his hand floated in the air, and then began to spin sideways at high speed. Uchiha Douguang raised his hand and pointed in a direction, then suddenly clenched his fist.

The kunai flew out at high speed in an instant, so fast that even Kakashi's Sharingan could not capture it. It reached a distance of a hundred meters in almost the blink of an eye and slammed heavily on a huge rock. The huge kinetic energy directly shattered the boulder with a diameter of nearly one meter into pieces.

Kakashi looked at Uchiha Tokou in disbelief. Although any ninja above the level of Chunin could have done that using ninjutsu, the flying speed of this kunai must have reached three times the speed of sound. Even a Jonin who excelled in speed could not have easily avoided it. The most important thing was that the little chakra Uchiha Tokou had just used was not enough to consume even the most basic clone technique.

"How... was this done?" Kakashi asked.

"Kakashi, have you carefully explored the electric current caused by the change in the nature of Lightning Release?" Uchiha Douguang said with a smile, "The change in the nature of Lightning Release can produce an electric current similar to natural lightning. If the control is good, it can create a strong magnetic field. With only a little bit of chakra, the magnetic field created can accelerate metal materials to the speed just mentioned. I call this move a Super Railgun."

"If you can learn it, then your chakra deficiency won't be such a big problem."

After saying that, Uchiha Douguang took out a scroll, threw it to Kakashi, and said, "Go back and practice according to what's written on it. You're the only one besides me who can learn this technique. Without the dynamic vision of the Sharingan, it's difficult to even aim. And most of my other clansmen don't have much talent for Lightning Release."

"This is too valuable." Kakashi said after taking the scroll.

"If you think it's valuable, you can exchange it for your Chidori so I can teach it to Sasuke. The ninjutsu I developed are not suitable for laying the foundation for children." Uchiha Douguang said.

Kakashi smiled helplessly at this. Was the ninjutsu he had painstakingly developed back then just being taught to children by Uchiha Tokou? But then he thought about it: of all the things he owned, besides the White Fang displayed in the ancestral hall, only the Chidori could barely match the ninjutsu Uchiha Tokou had taught him.

"I'll bring you the Chidori scroll before you leave," Kakashi said.

"By the way, if you go to Kirigakure, take this with you." Uchiha Douguang smiled and took off the Thunderbolt from his waist and threw it to Kakashi.

"Is this necessary?" Kakashi was puzzled after taking the knife. "I haven't practiced swordsmanship for a long time."

"This sword is not for you to use." Uchiha Douguang said with a smile, "For those rebellious ninjas in Kirigakure, just showing them this sword will be more effective than any other ninjutsu."

"Okay, I understand." Although Kakashi didn't quite understand why Uchiha Tokugawa said that, Uchiha Tokugawa handed him the ninja sword that he almost never left his body, so he must have his intentions.

……

The next day, Kakashi received the mission report. Just as Uchiha Tokou had expected, in addition to him, a series of the Fourth Hokage's former subordinates who had close ties with him, including Shiranui Genma, and Raito Hirata, were organized into a team and headed to the southeastern border of the Land of Fire to assist the ninja troops on the border in clearing out the rebel ninjas who had escaped from the Hidden Mist Village.

That afternoon, Kakashi went to the ninja school to pick up Naruto and took him to the Uchiha clan's territory.

"Brother Kakashi, where are we going?" On the way over, Naruto realized that this didn't seem to be the way home, so he asked curiously.

"I have to go on a long mission during this period, so I have to ask your aunt Mikoto to take care of you for a while." Kakashi said.

"Huh?" Naruto was surprised when he heard that, then said, "I can take care of myself."

"When you say you can take care of yourself, do you mean eating ramen every day?" Kakashi said after glancing at the boy.

"Uh..." Naruto stuck out his tongue after his little thought was exposed, "So, am I going to live with Sasuke?"

"What? Don't you want to?" Kakashi asked.

"That's not the case," Naruto shook his head. Although he had to fight with Sasuke almost every day at school, Naruto still recognized this friend. Now that he had the opportunity to live together, he was still very happy.

"But you have to come back early." Naruto looked up at Kakashi and said.

Kakashi looked down at Naruto, and after seeing the reluctance in the boy's eyes, he reached out and touched his head, then said: "I understand, I will complete the mission and come back as soon as possible."

After Kakashi brought Naruto to the Uchiha clan's territory, he knocked on the door of Fugaku's house. Soon, Mikoto, dressed as a housewife, opened the door. When she saw Kakashi and Naruto, a look of surprise appeared on her face.

"Kakashi? And Naruto, why are you here?"

"Hello, Aunt Mikoto." Naruto greeted Mikoto.

"It's like this, Lady Mikoto. I've received a long-term mission from the village, and I'm afraid I'll be away for a while. I'm worried that Naruto will be left alone, so I'd like to ask you to take care of him for a while," Kakashi said. Mikoto nodded, then glanced at Naruto. "Take care of the child for a while? That's no problem, but..."

Mikoto didn't finish her words, but Kakashi understood her concerns. As friends of Naruto's parents, Mikoto and Fugaku could take care of the child. No one dared to say anything under the intimidation of Uchiha Tokou. But if the Jinchuriki directly moved into the Uchiha clan territory, I'm afraid the Sandaime and the others would not be able to sit still.

"It's okay," Kakashi said, "I'll leave the child in your care, Mikoto-sama. No one can say anything."

"Okay." Mikoto nodded, then asked, "Would you like to stay for dinner?"

"As for eating, there's no need. I still have to go back and pack my things." Kakashi shook his head and said, then he looked at Naruto and said, "Naruto, don't cause trouble for your Aunt Mikoto if you live here, okay?"

"Okay." Naruto nodded.

At this time, Sasuke also poked his little head out from behind Mikoto.

"Naruto? Are you going to stay at our house?"

"Yeah," Mikoto said with a smile, patting her youngest son's head, "You two should get along well from now on. Sasuke, take Naruto in."

"Okay!" Sasuke showed excitement on his face when he heard that, and brought Naruto into the house.

"Thank you for taking care of Naruto, Lady Mikoto." Kakashi said after bowing to Mikoto.

"Don't say that," Mikoto glanced back at Naruto, who had already entered the house with Sasuke, before speaking, "After all, he is Kushina's son."

……

After Kakashi left the Uchiha clan's territory and returned home, he saw Jiraiya waiting at the door.

"Jiraiya-sama?" Kakashi knew why the other party came to see him, but he still pretended to be ignorant and asked, "What is it?"

"It's so late, hasn't Naruto come back yet?" Jiraiya asked.

"I'm going to the border to clean up the rebel ninjas. I'll probably be away from the village for a long time, so I plan to ask someone else to take care of this child for a few days."

"So you sent him directly to the Uchiha clan?" Jiraiya said with a serious expression.

"Is there any problem?" Kakashi said, "If Lady Kushina were still alive, she would make the same choice if she encountered such a situation."

"Kakashi, Naruto is a Jinchuriki after all! You shouldn't have sent him to the Uchiha clan anyway." Jiraiya said seriously.

Hearing this, Kakashi's face suddenly changed: "Jinchuuriki, Jinchuuriki! Of course I know Naruto is a Jinchuuriki! But he is just a seven-year-old child! He is the only son of my teacher, your disciple Namikaze Minato! Is it because of this that you came to find him, or because of his status as a Jinchuriki?"

Jiraiya's face turned red and white at what Kakashi said, but he still gritted his teeth and said, "Have you never thought about what would happen if Uchiha controlled the Nine-Tails?"

"Lord Jiraiya, given your current status, you can't say such things casually." Kakashi reminded with a sneer.

Jiraiya realized that what he had just said was too sensitive. He turned around and confirmed that there was no one else around. Then he sighed and said, "Kakashi, that's not what I meant. I was just in case."

"Lord Jiraiya, I think that the Uchiha clan, with all its pride, would not be so despicable as to make a fuss about a child," Kakashi said.

Jiraiya was speechless. He really wanted to say that the Uchiha people would not be so despicable as to make a fuss about a child. Could they be so despicable?

But he really didn't have the confidence to say that.

After taking over the position of Hokage advisor, he also read the documents left by the previous two advisors one by one. Wasn't the rumor about Naruto being a demon fox orchestrated by Danzo, one of the village's high-ranking officials? On the other hand, the Security Department had never been involved in the previous rumor incidents.

So, in response to Kakashi's words, Jiraiya could only remain silent.

"Lord Jiraiya, please go back. If you want to see Naruto, you can go to the Uchiha clan. I think Lord Fugaku and Lady Mikoto will not refuse." Kakashi said.

After saying that, Kakashi walked into the house on his own, ignoring Jiraiya outside the door and closed it.

Jiraiya outside the door took a look at the ancestral home of the Hatake clan behind the gate, sighed deeply, and rushed towards the Hokage Building.

Jiraiya opened the door to the Hokage's office and walked in dejectedly.

Seeing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen also sighed. Seeing Jiraiya like this, he thought that he had hit a snag with Kakashi.

"Kakashi still insists that Uchiha take care of Naruto?" asked Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"Yes," Jiraiya nodded, "Old man, what you did before was indeed too much. Now Kakashi would rather believe Uchiha than us."

Sarutobi Hiruzen lit his pipe. "Is it about the rumors about Naruto? Danzo did the same thing behind my back before. By the time I found out, it was too late to undo it. Forcing an explanation would only deepen the villagers' misunderstanding."

Jiraiya looked at his teacher deeply, shook his head after a while, and then said: "Forget it, let's not talk about this. The Uchiha shouldn't be so cruel as to attack a child. Old man, after Kakashi resigned from the Anbu, the position of Anbu captain will be vacant. Do you have a candidate?"
