Naruto: The Age of Ninja Swords Begins in Kumogakure

Chapter 66 Too Eager to Improve (Second Update)

Tamura acted on his idea immediately. After arranging Garura's work and shop matters, he told Fukai about his idea and then went to see the Third Raikage.

"teacher!"

"To be given a title in the village!"

Hearing the way the teacher was addressed, the Third Raikage's eyebrows twitched, and he sternly corrected him.

This disciple is very good, but his identity is a huge trap. If he's not careful, he could be implicated and ruin his reputation in his later years.

He didn't want to be pointed at or stared at when he went out in the future.

This posture startled Tamura Hiroshi, who instinctively wanted to say, "I really want to improve."

"So many years have passed, what's the point of going back to look for it?"

The Third Raikage was puzzled after reading the application report submitted by Fukai.

Their people obtained a lot of information from the memories of those Konoha ninjas and Enma. He had seen it before and knew about the Uchiha clan's ultimate weapon.

But that happened too long ago. Even the Ape Demon was just a little monkey back then. So many years have passed, what could possibly remain?

Tamura Hao wasn't dwelling on the matter of progress. He explained seriously, "I carefully examined the information I obtained from the memories of those Sarutobi clan ninjas, including some of the Uzumaki clan's records. I found that the battle ended very strangely. There wasn't much of a record of it, not even which side won. It was most likely a mutual destruction."

The Uchiha clan never saw those eyes again after that, and neither the Senju clan nor the Sarutobi clan had any record of them. I suspect that those eyes were ultimately sealed away.

If it's a sealing technique, the person will definitely die, but there's a high probability that their chakra and Sharingan power will remain.

The power of the Mangekyou Sharingan is incomparable to that of the ordinary Sharingan; I need to obtain it.

"No, that place is located in the heart of the Land of Fire, and it's wartime now. It's too dangerous to go there."

After reviewing the application report in his hand once more, the Third Raikage ultimately rejected it.

"I must go and obtain that eye power from the third generation of teachers."

Tamura Hao's expression became even more serious. He connected with Kaguya's phantom and the little ten-tailed fox, his eyes turned bright red, and three tomoe slowly rotated deep within his pupils.

His initial idea was correct; he could indeed use Kaguya's phantom to obtain the bloodline power to devour, such as the Sharingan.

This is similar to how a Jinchuriki can obtain the power of a Tailed Beast; for example, the bloodline limit of a Tailed Beast can be obtained by a Jinchuriki.

Kaguya's phantom is essentially his own tailed beast, and he is the jinchūriki, not to mention there's also a mini Ten-Tails.

Even though the current level of integration is very low, the boost gained is still significant, especially the improvement in dynamic vision. It feels like entering bullet time in a movie, where everything around slows down.

In addition, after fusing with the chakra of the Ten-Tails, he can borrow some of its chakra, several times more than his own, which greatly improves his combat endurance and is enough to sustain him in long battles.

With the addition of the Adamantine Sealing Chains, he could even fight against a Jonin, at least enough to survive.

"Sharingan?"

The Third Raikage was astonished, and even Tsuchikage, who was engrossed in processing documents nearby, couldn't help but look up.

They had previously given all the Sharingan in the lab to this kid, hoping to see if he had any good ideas, but who would have thought he would produce results so quickly?

"I gave the Sharingan to Samehada to absorb, and then sealed Samehada into my body, becoming a Jinchūriki-like being, and indirectly obtained the power of the Sharingan."

Tamura Hao earnestly lied, which wasn't exactly a lie, because after obtaining the little Ten-Tails, he sealed Samehada inside and let the little Ten-Tails swallow it, greatly increasing the little Ten-Tails' efficiency in absorbing chakra and enabling it to create chakra by consuming flesh and blood.

This also explains his abnormality, preventing the Third Raikage and others from becoming suspicious.

"The Jinchūriki of Samehada?"

The group of people turned their heads in surprise. They had all seen the Samehada sword from Kirigakure before; it was a living creature, but they really didn't expect it could be used like this.

"According to the information obtained from the memories of those Kirigakure ninja, Samehada was originally a small fish that followed the Three-Tails. It was responsible for helping the Three-Tails absorb and consume chakra. It usually stuck to the Three-Tails' belly to help clean up the residue, and absorbed food from the Three-Tails' belly to refine a large amount of chakra, and then sent the chakra into the Three-Tails' body."

In a way, it can be considered a tailed beast, and it's known for its ability to devour, so this arrangement makes sense.

Tu Tai quickly figured out the underlying principle; at least theoretically, this approach was feasible.

The Third Raikage understood and acknowledged this speculation, but still did not approve Tamura Hiroshi's application.

"Your theory about the seal is just a possibility, and there's no need for you to go there and risk it yourself."

That's the heart of the Land of Fire, and it's currently at war; it's very dangerous.

Tamura Hao did not give up and continued to explain: "The situation over there is not clear for the time being. If the situation is not good, I can use Samehada's devouring power to directly devour the existing Mangekyou Sharingan power to prevent it from dissipating."

Furthermore, we can ask a Uzumaki ninja who has awakened Kagura's Mind's Eye to accompany us. With Kagura's Mind's Eye's perception ability, we can avoid other ninjas from a distance. After searching the area, regardless of whether we find anything, we will leave as soon as possible.

Furthermore, with Konoha's current strongest fighters all on the front lines, the risks in the past were actually not that great.

Teacher, I want to become stronger as soon as possible. This is a rare opportunity for me, and I must take it.

He certainly wouldn't actually take the risk; he had already come up with a plan.

Moreover, this trip is just a search, not an engagement with any faction. There are no ninja forces entrenched in that area, so it shouldn't be a big problem.

"Third Hokage, among the Uzumaki clan members, the one with the strongest Mind's Eye is Uzumaki Tamayo, whose perception range is as far as thirty kilometers. There are not many perception ninjas in Konoha who can surpass this range, and it is impossible for them to be assigned to such a useless place."

Tu Tai advised that a simple search would not actually pose much of a danger.

"Fokai, take three ANBU ninjas and escort him to Tsurugawa. Make sure he is safe."

After some deliberation, the Third Raikage finally agreed.

"Yes, Lord Raikage!"

Fauci accepted the order. He would not refuse the students' requests and the opportunity to become stronger. Moreover, although the trip looked dangerous, it was actually nothing serious.

They weren't going to spy on Konoha, and Tsurugawa wasn't a strategic location. As long as they didn't have contact with Konoha ninjas, there wouldn't be any conflict, and they might not even be discovered by the other side.

"Thank you, teachers of all three generations."

Tamura Hao smiled, his desire for Uchiha Hikaru growing ever stronger.

That's the Mangekyou Sharingan with four different eye techniques!

"In the village, you must be addressed with a title!"

The Third Raikage, with a dark expression, reminded him again to correct him, "I still have a sense of shame!"

"Yes, Lord Raikage!"

With a slight twitch at the corner of his eye, Tamura Hiroshi had no choice but to change his form of address.

Without further ado, Fukai selected three members of the Dark Guard from the Yotsuki family and found Uzumaki Tamaha to escort Tamura Hiroshi to the Land of Fire.

To be more discreet, they did not travel by land, but instead sailed out to sea, taking a roundabout route to the Land of Whirlpools, and then entered from the southern part of the Land of Fire.

Currently, Konoha has deployed heavy troops in the eastern, northern, and western parts of the Land of Fire. There must be a large number of sensory ninjas there, so it's not easy to enter from those three directions; the chances of being discovered are very high.

Even though they had Kagura's Mind's Eye with Uzumaki Tamayo's ability to perceive things from a distance, they would inevitably leave some traces during their journey.

Ninjas have very keen observation skills, and these traces are very likely to be discovered by the enemy, so they cannot approach from any of those three directions and can only enter from the south.

At the same time, traveling by boat will allow them to better conserve their energy in the early stages and enter the Land of Fire in the best possible condition.

Of course, Tamura Hao did not stop training on the ship, especially the nature transformation training of lightning attribute.

He had long coveted a D-rank Lightning Release ninjutsu called Swift Lightning Flash Technique.
