Yoruha looked at Sasuke with some surprise and asked, "You've learned Chidori?" Sasuke smiled, clearly pleased with Yoruha's astonished expression. "Yeah, although the training was really tough, I've mastered it."
"Yoruha, you were right. Kakashi-sensei's Lightning Release really suits me." Sasuke had changed a lot compared to before, so now he referred to Kakashi as "Kakashi-sensei" instead of just Kakashi. Hearing Sasuke's words, Yoruha nodded.
Naruto, standing nearby, pouted and said, "Kakashi-sensei is so biased, saying Lightning Release doesn't suit me." Yoruha chuckled, "Did he mention that Wind Release suits you?" Naruto was taken aback and looked at Yoruha in surprise, "How did you know?"
Yoruha replied, "I happen to know a jutsu that would suit you well. If you want to learn it, I can teach you." Yoruha planned to teach Naruto the Rasengan ahead of time. Mainly because Yoruha wasn't sure when the Chunin Exams would start.
Currently, Naruto hadn't started learning the Rasengan from Jiraiya. Naruto was stunned, then overjoyed, "Really?!" Yoruha nodded.
"Yoruha, are you really going to teach him a jutsu?" Sasuke said, somewhat displeased. Of course, it wasn't that he didn't want Naruto to learn a jutsu, but he was a bit annoyed that Yoruha was teaching Naruto and not him.
Yoruha explained, "This jutsu is more suitable for Naruto, just like Chidori is more suitable for you." Only then did Sasuke stop complaining. Naruto looked expectant, even though he had been learning taijutsu from Kakashi recently.
But he still hoped Yoruha could teach him. Not only Naruto, but Sasuke also hoped Yoruha could personally guide his training. Compared to Kakashi, Sasuke trusted Yoruha's abilities more.
No matter how much Yoruha tried to convince Sasuke otherwise, his opinion never changed. "Alright, since you want me to test your strength, come over here." With that, Yoruha patted the shoulders of the three.
Sasuke, Naruto, and Sakura didn't understand what Yoruha meant. The next moment, they suddenly felt a blur before their eyes, and the scenery around them changed. They found themselves hundreds of meters away.
This scene left the three of them stunned. "What... what kind of jutsu is this?" "How did we suddenly appear here?"
Naruto and Sasuke exclaimed in surprise. The three of them looked at Yoruha with astonishment. Yoruha explained, "It's just a small jutsu. Come on, let me test the results of your training."
However, Yoruha's words didn't snap them out of their shock. The Flying Thunder God Technique Yoruha had just used was too astonishing. Instantly moving hundreds of meters was something even the Body Flicker Technique couldn't achieve.
Moreover, Yoruha had moved all three of them together. At this moment, Sasuke, Naruto, and Sakura didn't know that, several hundred meters away, Kakashi was standing on a large tree, observing the situation. Besides Kakashi, there was also a ninja wearing an Anbu mask standing next to him.
This ninja was the current Anbu captain, Tenzo, who would later be known as Yamato. Originally watching Yoruha and the three with great interest, both of them were stunned after seeing Yoruha perform the Flying Thunder God Technique.
"What's going on?" Yamato asked, his voice trembling. Kakashi was equally taken aback.
"Has he been staying home all this time just to train this jutsu?" The Third Hokage had specifically discussed Yoruha's performance in the archives with Kakashi. At that time, the Third had mentioned that Yoruha seemed to lack the talent for learning the Flying Thunder God Technique.
Kakashi had felt a bit regretful about this. Although Yoruha's strength wasn't dependent on mastering the Flying Thunder God Technique, Kakashi had witnessed the power of Minato Namikaze's Flying Thunder God Technique. He had hoped Yoruha could master it as well.
Who would have thought that Yoruha would just casually perform it? "Didn't the Third say he didn't have the talent for learning the Flying Thunder God Technique?" "How come he seems to be doing it so effortlessly?"
Kakashi was at a loss for words. Yamato, standing beside him, finally understood the name of the jutsu Yoruha had just performed. Like Kakashi, he was equally shocked.
He had initially thought Yoruha was using some kind of special Body Flicker Technique. He never expected it to be the Fourth Hokage's signature move, the Flying Thunder God Technique. Even though he wasn't very familiar with the Fourth Hokage, he was well aware of the fame of the Flying Thunder God Technique.
After all, a significant part of the Fourth Hokage's "Yellow Flash" moniker came from the Flying Thunder God Technique. After a moment of surprise, Kakashi shook his head with a wry smile. "This kid, always so nonchalant, mastering such a powerful jutsu and not even mentioning it to me." But Kakashi wasn't entirely surprised.
After all, Kakashi knew Yoruha had many powerful jutsu that he didn't use often. Yamato, standing next to Kakashi, agreed and said, "That kid indeed has a very strong chakra." "No wonder the Hokage pays so much attention to him."
Yamato was Kakashi's junior. Although Kakashi had left the Anbu, he still had significant influence there. For instance, Yamato had a good relationship with Kakashi, and they had saved each other many times. Yamato was also someone Kakashi had rescued from Danzo's grasp.
It's easy to imagine how close Yamato and Kakashi were. Yamato knew Kakashi admired Yoruha, or rather, he knew Yoruha was Kakashi's student. From their conversations, it was clear that Kakashi treated Yoruha differently than he did Sasuke and the others.
So Yamato was also curious about what kind of person Yoruha was. Why were both Kakashi and the Third Hokage so focused on him? Yamato wasn't aware that Kakashi and even the Third Hokage had warned Danzo at the Root headquarters because of Yoruha.
If he knew, he would be even more incredulous. Not to mention the likes of Konoha's younger and older generation leaders like Kakashi and the Third Hokage. If both of them held Yoruha in such high regard, anyone with a bit of sense could guess that Yoruha's future achievements would be significant.
Kakashi smiled, "He's indeed different from others, always full of surprises." Yamato observed Kakashi's proud smile. He had never seen Kakashi smile like that because of someone. Moreover, Kakashi rarely smiled when he was with him.
But whenever they talked about Yoruha, Kakashi would always smile genuinely. Yamato nodded and said, "It's indeed surprising, or rather unexpected, that someone could learn the Fourth Hokage's Flying Thunder God Technique." "After all, besides the Fourth Hokage, very few have mastered it."
Previously, a few of the Fourth Hokage's guards could use it, but they needed three people to activate it. It was practically unusable in battle. Yet Yoruha not only learned it but also performed it with ease.
Yoruha is only 12 years old. At 12, not only does Yoruha have enough chakra to perform it, but he does it so effortlessly. Yoruha's current strength is likely at the level of a Jonin. Yamato didn't know much about Yoruha, so he could only speculate.
