Chapitre 22: Chapter 22: Uchiha Family's Guest (Part 1)
"Here's the deal, Third Hokage-sama. How about we make a trade?" Sakura suddenly had an idea and said, "I'll go to the border and teach the Cloud Village's army a bloody lesson. When I come back, can I borrow the Sealing Scroll to look at it?"
"The Sealing Scroll contains numerous forbidden techniques and is not allowed to be viewed casually," Third Hokage took a puff of his cigarette. The Sealing Scroll was created by the First Hokage and contained a series of forbidden techniques from the Second Hokage and others. Generally speaking, it was only allowed to be viewed by the Hokage and no one else.
"I'm not viewing it casually. I'm just looking for some ninjutsu that Naruto can practice. We're all about to enter the Ninja Academy soon, so let's prepare for the future in advance!" Sakura explained.
Among her companions, whether it was Sasuke, Neji, or Ino, they were all from prominent families and practiced their respective clan's secret techniques. Only Naruto, whose parents died early, had no one to support him and had not even practiced ninjutsu. Sakura wanted to find some suitable ninjutsu for Naruto to practice from the Sealing Scroll, so that he wouldn't be like in the original story, where he only started learning ninjutsu after graduating from the Ninja Academy.
"Naruto?!" Third Hokage fell silent for a moment and said, "Alright then, if you can successfully resolve the border issue, I will give you the Sealing Scroll when you come back. But you can only read it here and cannot take it out!"
"No problem!" Sakura readily agreed. She had no intention of taking the Sealing Scroll and defecting. With her current memory, memorizing the entire Sealing Scroll was a piece of cake.
"I'll have someone take you to the border. Do you have any other requests?" Third Hokage asked.
"Can I choose my own team?" Sakura's eyes lit up. She couldn't just randomly choose people to go with her. She needed to select some powerful individuals.
"Who do you want to choose?" Third Hokage was curious. Ever since he found out that Sakura could see the past and future, he paid special attention to her every move.
"I only need three people! Kakashi Hatake, Uchiha Shisui, and Might Guy!" Sakura said, counting on her fingers.
"Guy?" Third Hokage was puzzled. Kakashi Hatake was his subordinate and had great strength, so he was at ease with him. Uchiha Shisui was the descendant of his old friend Uchiha Kagami and was also very strong. He was known as the "Shunshin Shisui." He could understand why Sakura chose them, but what was the deal with Guy?
"Don't underestimate him, Third Hokage-sama. Although he looks out of place, his strength is undeniable!" Sakura knew that Guy was not at his peak during the Fourth Great Ninja War, and because no one had seen the true power of the Eight Gates, Guy was often ridiculed. But who would have thought that this out-of-place person would almost kick the Six Paths-level Madara Uchiha to death with one kick?
"Actually, if his father hadn't died, I would have preferred his father to lead the team!" Sakura felt a little regretful. Might Guy's father, Might Duy, opened the Eighth Gate of Death to protect Guy and his team. He killed four of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist but died from exhaustion. However, this person was known as the "Eternal Genin" in the village and was often ridiculed.
"Might Duy? Can you tell me more about him?" Third Hokage also remembered what Guy said when he returned. However, no one believed that the Eternal Genin could defeat the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist. Now it seemed that the situation was different from what he knew.
"There's not much to say. Might Duy opened the last gate of the Eight Gates of Death to protect Guy and his team. Four of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist died, and three were injured. However, he also died from burning his life force!" Sakura briefly explained Might Duy's glorious record and added, "Actually, Might Duy's Eight Gates of Death were not at their peak. They were only in a semi-finished state and only improved his physical qualities. The secret techniques were not perfected yet!"
If Might Duy had known the same techniques as later Guy, there would not have been any of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist left. Neither Yoroi nor Yakai would have been able to withstand the Eight Gates.
"How strong is the true power of the Eight Gates of Death?" Third Hokage asked. He was already planning to cultivate an Eight Gates Legion. Might Duy, the Eternal Genin, was able to kill four of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist. If there were more of them, who in Konoha would dare to provoke them?
"To put it this way, in a life-threatening state, opening all Eight Gates of Death can press the shadows of the five ninja villages to the ground and render them powerless. However, the side effects are too great, and it's completely a matter of life and death!" Sakura explained.
Seeing Third Hokage's expression, Sakura knew what he was thinking. "Don't even think about cultivating an Eight Gates Legion. Not many people can bear the training of the Eight Gates of Death, and not many people can learn that kind of fighting style!"
"I understand!" Third Hokage nodded, but he still couldn't let go of the idea. "I can arrange for Kakashi and Guy, but you need to communicate with the Uchiha clan yourself to arrange for Uchiha Shisui!"
"Okay, as long as you arrange Kakashi and Guy properly, it's not a problem. I'll talk to the Uchiha clan about Uchiha Shisui!" Sakura was confident. She was Sasuke's personal stylist and had helped him create many good-looking images. She had also brought the brothers closer together. Most importantly, if she remembered correctly, Sasuke's mother, Uchiha Mikoto, and Naruto's mother, Uzumaki Kushina, were good friends.
In the evening, Sakura, Naruto, and Sasuke were walking on the road. Sasuke's face was as black as the bottom of a pot.
"Why are you following me? And why do you have to bring this idiot with you?" Sasuke asked.
"I told you, I have something to discuss with your father. As for Naruto, he can also help with this matter, so of course, I have to bring him along!" Sakura said confidently. "And I also want to go to the field to investigate your uncle and aunt's interests so that I can prescribe the right medicine and help you make more suitable female clothing!"
"Don't mention that to me!" Sasuke was full of resentment. He was forced to wear female clothing every day at the ramen shop, and when he got home, his mother and others even made him wear female clothing. Sasuke's resentment was about to reach the sky.
"Well, why not mention it? I think Sasuke looks good in that outfit!" Naruto chuckled.
"Shut up, idiot..." Sasuke shouted angrily, startling the birds in the trees on the side of the road. Under the setting sun, the three of them unexpectedly looked harmonious.
