****************
Colt was happy, he had heard of this artifact before.
[Kaminari: The sword of the legendary Thunder God. It is extremely sharp and has various special abilities.]
[Ability 1: As the legendary Thunder God's weapon, your lightning-based ninjutsu power is greatly enhanced!]
[Ability 2: The size is adjustable. After the Host awakens the Susanoo, the Kaminari will also transform into a matching oversized weapon.]
(Editor/N: I renamed this, it was just Thunder god sword, actually even worse, it was named as Budu Yusoul, but I didn't find any relevant sword for that, or maybe I didn't search deep enough, so I gave it this name, though it doesn't share the same look or abilities as the one in Naruto)
As soon as he thought about it, a long sword appeared in Colt's hand, with an ornately decorated scabbard.
"Shhing!"
Colt drew the Kaminari, a standard Japanese katana style, with no distinction between it and other swords.
However, that doesn't matter anymore.
The sword body reflected a faint cold light, and with a casual wave, the coffee table in front of him was cleanly sliced like cutting through tofu.
The sharpness made Colt a little shocked.
Next, he infused some Lightning Chakra.
Immediately, the whole sword was covered in crackling electricity, looking very fearsome.
After some experimentation, Colt was very satisfied with the Kaminari.
Especially after he'll be able to use the Susanoo, his construct will also have a suitable grand weapon to wield.
Itachi's Susanoo looks so fancy, he can't be too far behind.
The only pity was that Colt did not deliberately study any sword styles, nor did he pay much attention when reading sealing techniques.
He'll ask the Third Hokage for guidance tomorrow.
With a plan in mind, Colt put away the Kaminari and continued studying the Flying Thunder God Technique.
It wasn't until later that night that he stretched, ate some food, and then went to sleep.
...
Early the next morning, Colt went out.
"Congrats!"
"I'm happy for you, Colt-kun"
Neighbors rejoiced when they saw the Leaf Ninja forehead protector on his arm.
Everyone had watched Colt grow up, and they were very fond of this sensible child since his youth.
Colt responded with a smile, and his handsome face made many girls blush.
Coming to the Hokage building, the Third Hokage and another old man were waiting there early.
Colt raised his eyes slightly, and he recognized this man from watching the anime.
Kosuke Maruboshi.
"Colt, come here."
The Third greeted him with a smile, "This is Kosuke Maruboshi, he will form a temporary team with you to complete a few missions."
"After all, those D-rank missions are of no use to you."
Colt nodded politely, "Hello, Maruboshi-senpai."
Kosuke Maruboshi nodded with a smile, his first impression of Colt was very good.
The Third had said his piece, and it was Colt's turn.
"I want to learn some swordsmanship for a while, old gramps will provide me with some scrolls."
The Third was stunned for a moment, looking at the gorgeous long sword on Colt's waist.
"That's really a coincidence. Kosuke was once instructed by the Second in both ninjutsu and kenjutsu. You can ask him if you don't understand anything."
Only then did Colt remember that in the original story, Kosuke Maruboshi did have a combination of Genjutsu and sword skills.
It was apparently called the Maruboshi Style.
Kosuke also agreed, "No problem, as long as Colt-san wants to learn, I will teach him."
"Then I will trouble you, Maruboshi-senpai."
After coming out of the Hokage's office, the two came to the mission hall.
"Senpai, which mission do you think we should take?"
Ask if you don't understand.
Although Colt had sufficient strength, his experience was definitely not as vast as this eternal Genin's.
Maruboshi Kosuke was still smiling, "Lord Third said that you are not lacking in power, but only in experience."
"The long-distance escort missions are time-consuming and laborious, so we won't take those."
Colt nodded in agreement.
Generally, those escort missions take at least five or six days round trip, which was really not worth it.
Maruboshi Kosuke continued analyzing, "The rest are assassination missions and intelligence gathering missions, it depends on your preferences."
Colt doesn't like spying or intel gathering, that kind of task was boring, tedious, and if it didn't go well, it even required a long period to remain hidden.
That leaves only the assassination mission type.
"Let's choose an assassination mission."
Kosuke nodded, not surprised by Colt's choice.
In the end, he selected a mission to eliminate some bandits, located in the Niu Head Mountains, a few hundred kilometers away from Konoha.
At their traveling speed, they only need to camp one night to get there and back.
After the mission was selected, the two split up to prepare.
Colt, who had nothing else to do, also went to check on Hinata and Ino's teams.
Similar to team seven, in order to cultivate teamwork, they all started from the most basic D-rank missions.
Seeing Colt's appearance, Ino excitedly put down the bag of rice she was carrying and ran over to complain to him.
"Colt, you won't believe the boring stuff they're having us do"
While Shikamaru and Chōji were forced to carry her abandoned workload too.
Colt looked at the two apologetically and created a Shadow Clone to help them.
"This will help you guys,"
"Thanks, Colt"
Then the main body took Ino aside to rest.
His girlfriend complained at length about the unreliability of Asuma and Shikamaru, feeling that her team was a disaster.
And, he also got an unexpected tidbit from Ino.
Currently, Asuma and Kurenai were not in a relationship, Asuma was just one of Kurenai's suitors.
And whether to accept him or not, Kurenai was still considering it.
This detail differed somewhat from the original storyline. (E/N: Lol, of course, they did)
After spending some time with Ino, Colt left.
He's also going to find Hinata's team.
Sure enough, Team 8's mission looked arduous.
Coincidentally, when he met Team Kurenai, they were chasing a loose cat.
Upon seeing Colt, Kiba called out excitedly.
"Colt, help us catch that cat!"
Hearing this, Colt stretched out his palm, "Wind Style: Gale Palm!"
A small harmless tornado emerged and pressed the running feline directly against a wall.
"Ha, finally caught it."
Kiba went over and scooped up the cat with some effort.
"Thanks, Colt, if you didn't step in, we would have been chasing it for a while longer."
Akamaru also expressed his gratitude with a bark.
Hinata trotted over to Colt's side with surprise in her eyes.
"C-Colt..."
"Hey there."
Smiling, he reached out and patted Hinata's head, Colt found that he really liked this action.
Whether it's for Hinata or Ino, their small heads always made him feel affectionate.
At this time, Kurenai Yuhi also appeared. As the Jonin instructor, although she wouldn't intervene easily, she would still follow behind her students.
Naturally, she also witnessed the scene of Colt using his wind ninjutsu.
'He has very precise chakra control.'
Not only did he avoid hurting the cat, but also restrained it steadily.
This was not something an ordinary ninja could do.
Inexplicably, Kurenai's impression of Colt deepened considerably.
Not only was he handsome, but also extremely skilled.
