Konoha: Uchiha, I get stronger by causing trouble.

Chapter 49

After completing a deal, Inuzuka Hisao was in a great mood, and his expression towards Chiga became much more amiable.

"By the way, Chiga, now that you have a flying summon, why don't you buy a ground-based fighting dog too?"

Before Chiga could even refuse, Hisao Inuzuka had already launched into his sales pitch.

"Chiga-san, look at my Black Demon!"

As he spoke, Hisao Inuzuka pointed at Kurosha, who was now cooperating with his master's sales pitch.

Standing over two meters tall, it once again revealed its ferocious appearance. Its strong body had clearly defined muscles, and its short, thick, black fur stood upright like steel needles, adding to its menacing look.

"Waaah."

Black Fiend's sharp fangs gleamed coldly as it growled at Qian He, instantly radiating killing intent. It looked quite impressive!

"How about it? Pretty intimidating, right? Of course, I can't sell Black Fiend to you, but Black Fiend happens to have a descendant, and it's an only son, so I'll sell it to you."

At this moment, the black-faced demon dog, who was still diligently showing off, suddenly changed its expression and cried out to Inuzuka Hisao, "Master, no! Didn't you say my only son was prepared for the young master? How could you bear to sell him to the Uchiha clan?!"

"Black Demon, stop talking. Chika was the first Uchiha to visit our Inuzuka clan. Selling your child to him is a testament to our friendship, so that our two clans can maintain our friendship and move forward hand in hand!"

Upon hearing this, Heisha hugged Inuzuka Hisao and cried, "Master, how cruel you are! You're cruel not only to me but also to our young master! You must know that my only son already has the strength of a genin, can use fire release techniques, and has even learned humanoid ninjutsu. With such talent, he will surely become a powerful ally to our young master in the future."

Upon hearing this, Inuzuka Hisao shoved Black Demon aside with a flick of his sleeve, closed his eyes, and gritted his teeth, saying, "My mind is made up, don't say another word!"

Watching the two perform with such enthusiasm, not only Chika, but even Kakashi's lips were practically twitching with amusement.

"How about it, Chiga?" After performing for so long, Inuzuka Hisao had to see if Chiga was interested.

"No, thank you, Hisao-senpai. I'm a bit short on cash right now. Let's talk about it another time."

Although Chiga was somewhat tempted by Hisao Inuzuka's sales pitch, she gave up on the idea after considering Hisao's initial rejection.

The Inuzuka clan is so hostile to the Uchiha clan's ninja cats.

It seems that the Uchiha clan members also disliked the Inuzuka clan's ninja dogs.

If you buy a ninja dog, it'll be fighting with the ninja cat every other day.

Amidst Hisao Inuzuka's attempts to persuade them to stay, Chiga and Kakashi left the Inuzuka clan's shop.

Not long after they came out, Chikashi and Kakashi saw Minato walking towards them.

"Chika, have you sorted things out?"

Minato asked first after seeing Chiga and Kakashi.

Chiga nodded, then noticed that something seemed off about Minato's face; a hint of lingering shyness remained on his handsome cheeks.

Furthermore, Minato carried a familiar scent—Kushina's favorite perfume. Chiga immediately understood and asked, "Minato-senpai, did you secretly go to visit Kushina-sensei?"

Minato was taken aback, then quickly covered up his embarrassment, forcing a smile and saying, "How could that be? Kushina is in confinement, and there are ANBU guards at the entrance. I can't get in either."

"Is that so?"

Chika and Kakashi exchanged a glance, then both squinted at Minato.

It was said that there were secret agents monitoring them, but under Minato's Flying Thunder God Technique, these secret agents were practically useless.

Under the watchful eyes of Chiga and Kakashi, Minato forced a smile and changed the subject, saying, "Alright, now that you two have finished dealing with your matters, and I've replenished my ninja tools, let's go to the Hokage Building to pick up our missions!"

"Yes, Minato-sensei, we really should continue with the mission. Resting in the village for a week has made us feel like we're rusting."

Kakashi immediately agreed upon hearing this.

The reason they hadn't accepted any missions for so long was because they were waiting for Chiga's confinement to end. Now that they had invited Chiga to join the team...

So when Minato said he wanted to continue taking on missions, Kakashi showed an excited expression.

Chiga did not refute this; compared to Minato and Kakashi, he had rested for a longer time.

On the way, Chika asked Minato, "By the way, Minato-senpai, as you know, I'm very interested in the Flying Thunder God Technique. May I ask you a few questions about it?"

Upon hearing this, Minato turned to Chiga with a smile and replied, "As long as it doesn't involve the core issues of the Flying Thunder God Technique, it's fine."

Chiga's eyes lit up, and she quickly asked, "Minato-senpai, does the Flying Thunder God Technique involve moving by sensing the Flying Thunder God Seal?"

Minato replied, "Yes! When activating the Flying Thunder God Technique, you need to inscribe your Flying Thunder God Seal on the location where you need to teleport."

"Is this technique fixed, or is it different for everyone? I remember yours was written down, teacher."

Chiga thought for a moment, then asked.

"It varies from person to person. The Second Hokage had a pattern, while mine has words."

"After this Flying Thunder God Seal is engraved, will it disappear on its own, or will it need to be destroyed through special means?"

Chiga then asked, recalling that the Flying Thunder God Technique could not be erased once it was engraved, but Obito had erased Minato's Flying Thunder God mark after becoming the Ten-Tails' Jinchuriki.

Perhaps if one becomes powerful enough, this mark can be erased.

Minato shook his head and replied, "Once the Flying Thunder God Seal is engraved, it cannot be destroyed. So, Chiga, if you really have the opportunity to learn the Flying Thunder God Technique, you must be very careful when engraving the Flying Thunder God Seal, and do not engrave it everywhere."

At this point, Minato looked at Chiga with a rare serious expression.

Chiga nodded solemnly, then asked, "So, Minato-senpai, where did you imprint the Flying Thunder God Technique on Kushina-sensei?"

Minato replied, "Hips, ten centimeters below the waist."

[Negative emotions from Minato Namikaze, emotion value +99!]

Chiga and Kakashi: "."

Wow, that didn't break his defenses at all. Minato-senpai truly lives up to his reputation as the Little Sun of Konoha.

At that moment, Minato's gentle smile vanished, and he said urgently to Chiga, "Um... Chiga, how could you ask such a question?!"

Chiga grinned mischievously, "Now can you admit that you went to see Kushina-sensei before?"

"Did you deliberately try to find out if I went to see Kushina?"

"It's your fault for not admitting it before. I spent more than a month with Ms. Kushina, so I'm quite familiar with her perfume scent."

Minato's eyes filled with tears; he regretted not hiding it from him earlier.
