章 13: Chapter 13: The Reason for Learning Flying Thunder God
Regarding the Fourth Hokage's question, Shishou had already prepared an answer and responded directly:
"I asked your real body."
Yes, Shishou couldn't be bothered to explain, so he simply lied.
He couldn't very well say he knew from watching Pain invade Konoha, as that would be a spoiler.
"You asked my real body?"
This answer astonished Minato.
If you already asked my real body, why come to me?
Moreover, my real body is dead, residing in the Death God's stomach. How did you ask?
"Orochimaru split open the Death God's stomach and performed the Impure World Reincarnation on your real body."
"However, perhaps due to the immature nature of his Impure World Reincarnation technique, your real body was not bound and soon returned to the Pure Land."
Seeing Minato's confusion, Shishou dropped a bombshell fact on him.
Yes, Orochimaru did indeed split open the Death God's stomach and reincarnate your real body.
And your real body indeed returned to the Pure Land.
Although this happens many years later, what I said is still true.
Shishou didn't plan to give the Fourth Hokage more time to think and quickly added:
"The real reason I came here is to learn the Flying Thunder God technique from you."
"Originally, I planned to seek out Shiranui Genma and the others or steal it from the Scroll of Seals, but that would cause some extra trouble and harm some people, which I dislike."
"Of course, if you refuse, I understand. After all, you don't know me, so it's natural to have reservations."
"I'll just find another way."
Shishou's words were sincere. If the Fourth Hokage refused him, he wouldn't force it.
Minato wasn't surprised about being reincarnated by Orochimaru.
Having won the Hokage title over Orochimaru, he knew Orochimaru's nature and that he wouldn't miss an opportunity to reincarnate him.
Thus, he believed about seventy percent of what Shishou said.
Seeing Shishou's candid expression and his plans and thoughts, Minato was momentarily at a loss for words.
More importantly, despite looking young,
Minato couldn't shake the feeling that Shishou had a powerful aura.
A kind of aura that came from having great strength, leading to absolute confidence.
"By the way, I'm a classmate of Naruto's. If you want to know about him, you can ask me."
"Naruto?" The Fourth Hokage was visibly excited.
It was no wonder he was excited.
His son had just been born, and he died, never even getting to hold him.
"Well, he didn't have it easy before, but after meeting Iruka-sensei, things gradually improved."
Shishou recounted Naruto's experiences over the years.
At the end, Shishou added:
"Look, this is what Naruto looks like now."
Shishou raised his right hand, and an image of Naruto appeared, then started playing like a video.
In this conscious space, with his Sharingan and Yin Release chakra, he could easily manifest his thoughts.
"Naruto..."
The Fourth Hokage watched Naruto's life video in a daze, gently reaching out to touch it.
After a long while, he looked at Shishou seriously and sincerely thanked him:
"Thank you!"
Then, his tone shifted, calmly asking Shishou:
"What if I decide not to teach you the Flying Thunder God technique?"
As the Fourth Hokage, he was very cautious about teaching this technique.
"I'll wait until Shiranui Genma and the others go on a mission, then beat them up and use the Sharingan to make them hand over the Flying Thunder God technique."
Shishou calmly stated, leaving the Fourth Hokage speechless.
Minato didn't know where Shishou got his confidence.
As if dealing with Shiranui Genma and the others was effortless.
Genma and the others were the Hokage's guards, deserving some respect.
However, he had a feeling that Shishou was mostly telling the truth.
How strange.
To avoid Genma and the others getting beaten up, the Fourth Hokage decided to teach Shishou the Flying Thunder God technique. However, he had one last question.
"Why are you so eager to learn the Flying Thunder God technique?"
Hearing Minato's question, Shishou hesitated, then sheepishly replied:
"I have a woman outside the village. Traveling back and forth is too troublesome, so I started thinking about the Flying Thunder God technique."
What?
Not because of the technique's power, nor to increase his strength.
Just because he had a woman outside the village, and traveling back and forth was too troublesome?
Classmate, how old are you?
And you already know how to keep a woman.
Although the Flying Thunder God technique is indeed very suitable for rendezvous...
Hearing Shishou's answer, the Fourth Hokage was stunned, as if struck by lightning.
Then he thought of his son, who was still playing pranks on his classmates.
A sense of "other people's children" slowly rose in Minato's heart.
That woman is also your wife's best friend, Uchiha Mikoto...
Seeing Minato's incredulous expression, Shishou swallowed the thought.
"Alright, you've convinced me."
"I'll teach you the Flying Thunder God technique."
The Fourth Hokage sighed and agreed to Shishou's request.
