Naruto: Learn the Substitution Jutsu and use it to create Star Platinum?

"In ninjutsu, mastering too many escaping techniques is not very meaningful. If you really want to make a qualitative breakthrough, you need to sense the nature changes of chakra."

A month later, Lin Yi returned to the monotonous life of cultivation and teaching his disciples.

"Chakra nature transformation?"

Xiao Zhishui blinked his eyes.

“Well, most ninjas usually start training when they reach the Chunin level, but Shisui, you can start preparing now.”

In this world, geniuses are simply unreasonable.

Geniuses with connections are even less likely to be considered "salty" (meaning unsophisticated or lacking in refinement).

Like Kakashi, while others were still in school at five, he was already preparing for the Chunin Exams at the age of five.

In Lin Yi's opinion, Shisui's talent even surpasses Kakashi's.

What is the essence of fire-style chakra?

"Explosion, high temperature?"

After a moment of thought, Zhi Shui gave his own summary.

Lin Yi shook his head slightly.

"Yes and no, these are manifestations of Fire Release, but not the fundamental nature of fire."

He opened his hand, and a ball of flame floated quietly in Lin Yi's palm.

He bent down, bringing the flame in his hand level with Shisui's line of sight.

"The fundamental nature of fire is combustion."

"combustion?"

Lin Yi nodded and extinguished the fireball in his hand.

"Whether it's high temperature, explosion, or other properties, these are all manifestations of fire after it burns. And there is only one reason for fire to appear: burning."

Looking at the thoughtful Xiao Zhishui, Lin Yi smiled and ruffled his hair.

However, it's still more enjoyable to pet the white-haired one.

After teaching his apprentice, Lin Yi rested his hands on his head and planned to go back to continue his cultivation. However, as soon as he arrived home, he saw a red figure and a yellow figure standing at the door.

He was talking about hair.

"What are you two doing in front of my house? Buying ninja tools?"

Minato shook his head, took Kushina's hand and said, "An emergency Jonin meeting has been convened. I just finished picking up Kushina and thought I'd come and inform you."

"Since you weren't home, I thought the Uchiha Jonin had already told you."

Lin Yi frowned slightly and exchanged a glance with Minato, both seeing the worry in each other's eyes.

The Jonin Conference is usually held twice a year, once in January and once in June.

Lin Yi became a Jonin this year after fighting with White Fang at Root, but he has not yet participated in the Jonin Conference.

The reason for the emergency meeting was not to discuss the appointment or removal of the Hokage.

Or... war is coming.

"By the way, can Kushina participate?"

boom!

He punched Lin Yi on the shoulder.

It wasn't that she didn't want to hit him on the head, but Lin Yi, who was only 13 years old at the time, was already taller than Minato, approaching 1.8 meters, which Kushina couldn't reach.

Is this guy 13?!

Sometimes Lin Yi himself worries that he might grow up to look like a character from JoJo's Bizarre Adventure.

He's handsome, but I'll pass myself off as one.

Fortunately, it grew very fast before, but now it's not growing much anymore.

"I'm a Special Jonin now, okay?"

Kushina pointed indignantly at her headband.

"awesome."

boom!

"Perfunctory."

Kushina withdrew her fist and curled her lip in disdain.

When the three entered the conference room, some ninjas were already inside.

Upon entering, most of the ninjas inside greeted them.

After all, one was a disciple of Jiraiya, one was a disciple of Sakumo Hatake, and the other simply had the Nine-Tails sealed inside his stomach.

Not one of them is easy to deal with.

Few idiots can become Jonin. Saying hello and leaving a good impression costs nothing, so why not?

"This must be Lord Lin Yi? I've heard so much about you."

"you are?"

Lin Yi looked at the ninja with pale white pupils in front of him with some curiosity.

When did the Hyuga become so proactive and polite to the Uchiha?

"My name is Hyuga Hizashi, and I am Kagekiri's uncle. He often tells me that you took great care of him."

Lin Yi then realized that Yingque was just a branch family, and it seemed that it had later withdrawn from the Dark Division.

Turning my head to look at the distance, I saw a ninja who looked almost exactly like Hyuga Hizashi, except that he didn't have a cross on his forehead, talking to someone.

“That is my older brother, Hyuga Hiashi.”

Seemingly noticing Lin Yi's gaze, Hyuga Hizashi spoke up.

Lin Yi nodded. It was also his first time attending a Jonin meeting, and he wasn't very familiar with most of the Jonin in Konoha.

Soon, the Uchiha Jonin, led by Fugaku, filed in and greeted Lin Yi.

Sakumo Hatake should be on another mission right now, as he wasn't seen this time.

Once all the Jonin from the village had arrived, Hiruzen Sarutobi lightly tapped the table to begin the meeting.

"The meeting begins."

The Jonin present gradually quieted down.

The Hokage and his three advisors sat in the four chairs in the front row.

"Kumogakure has declared war on Sunagakure."

The Jonin inside the room stirred slightly.

"Is it a declaration of war by two great ninja villages of the same level as us?"

"Will this affect us?"

"So what? Do they dare to face their original enemy plus Konoha at the same time?"

Apart from a very few geniuses like Lin Yi, most of the Jonin present had experienced war to some extent.

The Land of Lightning and the Land of Wind are separated by a vast distance, one being a desert and the other a mountainous stone forest.

To attack Sunagakure, one must either pass through seven or eight small countries, or take the route through the Land of Fire or the Land of Earth.

Therefore, the public's concerns are not without reason.

"This is intelligence obtained by spies abroad."

Hiruzen Sarutobi distributed the scrolls to everyone.

"The Third Kazekage has disappeared?"

Lin Yi looked at the intelligence in his hand and blinked.

Last time Sakumo Hatake went to the Land of Wind, he almost lost himself and several Jonin there.

Upon returning, he gave the Third Hokage an answer.

[Don't provoke Sunagakure while Tsunade is away.]

They can't beat us in a direct confrontation, but they can't withstand the enemy's use of biological weapons.

Sakumo Hatake did not reveal that Lin Yi could cure it, only saying that they were lucky in the end and found the antidote on the enemy.

Firstly, it was to help his apprentice conceal his trump card; secondly... that treatment was something no human could withstand.

Shuo Mao was worried that people would die from the pain before they were poisoned.

Just as we were marveling at their ruthlessness, the enemy leader was killed.

Isn't this a slap in the face to my white teeth?

But if Sunagakure loses its Kazekage, they'll definitely have to search the whole world for him.

After all, the Kazekage is more than just a leader to the Land of Wind; they rely on his Magnet Release to make money!

The money in other hidden villages comes partly from their own ninjas taking on missions, and partly from the daimyo's subsidies.

The sand dunes of Sunagakure are covered in yellow sand, and the combination of these two resources is simply not enough to make a living. They can only supplement their income by having their leader dig iron out of the sand.

Now that the person is gone, how can I not be anxious?!

After receiving the news, Konoha didn't think much of it. Things had only calmed down a few years ago, so at most they might gloat for a moment.

After all, the Land of Fire is a paradise of birdsong and fragrant flowers, with everything one could want; who would covet that wretched desert?

However, spies outside discovered that the Land of Lightning was about to make a move.

Having recuperated since World War I, the Tailed Beasts have found stable Jinchūriki, and the belligerent barbarians have long been unable to contain themselves.

"What? Your family's third-generation Kazekage has gone missing?"

This is really unreasonable!
