"Wind Breath Valley, located in the northern Land of Fire, is a land of death where hurricanes never cease. It is currently the trial ground for the Hogoromo Clan."
A full moon with three ribbon-like clan emblems below it appeared before Satoru's eyes.
Seeing this information, Satoru frowned. When he read the original work, this clan had never appeared, or perhaps, even if he overlooked so elents, this clan should have been just a background elent.
But looking at this clan's territory, it wasn't a small clan either.
The Hogoromo Clan occupied a large territory, including Wind Breath Valley.
He originally just wanted to find a celestial region similar to the Fla Mountain that Kashin Koji summoned in the Boruto era, to develop super-powerful celestial Ninjutsu, but he didn't expect to see a fresh term.
With a hint of curiosity, he specifically looked up information on the Hogoromo Clan and began to read.
The more he read, the more curious he beca.
This was a clan that had existed since the Warring States Period, once a standout among the major clans in the Land of Fire.
In that chaotic era, it was a ti when tasks were accepted and completed by clans as units.
The Hogoromo Clan had been hired to fight and cooperate with clans like Uchiha and Senju.
Influenced by their employers, there was both cooperation and confrontation among the various clans.
Initially, this clan had a similar strength to Uchiha and Senju, until the late Warring States Period, when Uchiha and Senju gradually grew stronger, and great talents like Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama erged.
In missions where they allied with Uchiha against Senju, their strength gradually beca insufficient, they were eliminated by employers, their clan power contracted, resources beca scarce, and they slowly declined.
But a starved cal is still bigger than a horse; they still existed in the Ninja World, occupying a large territory for developnt, belonging to Ninja forces in the Land of Fire similar to the Fire Temple.
The celestial region Satoru wanted to find, Wind Breath Valley, was their clan's territory, just like the Nara clan's deer-raising forest; outsiders were not allowed to enter.
According to the Intelligence Departnt's information, this Ninja clan was no longer a purely Ninja family; they also developed various businesses in the Land of Fire, belonging to neutral Ninja clans.
mbers of this clan were often selected for the Guardian Twelve Ninja, who protect the Daimyo, contributing to the clan's developnt.
"Goodness, such a big clan, becoming capitalists!"
To have once been rivals with Uchiha and Senju during the Warring States Period, their strength must not have been weak.
Wind Breath Valley is probably out of the question; he can only keep looking for information on the geographical location of Fla Mountain.
Even if it's uncertain whether Shippuden and Boruto are interconnected, the setting of special regions should be correct, given Wind Breath Valley.
Moreover, Turtle Island, where Orochimaru stayed, and Turtle Island, where Naruto trained to control Tailed Beast power, are both special regions, and such regions are not few.
Turtle Island is full of Summoning Beasts, and the waterfall on Turtle Island can reflect the mind, and so on…
"Satoru, are you here too?" Inoichi Yamanaka's voice sounded in his ear.
Hearing the voice, Satoru released his senses, a bit surprised as to why Inoichi Yamanaka was here: "Yes, just looking for so information."
"What information? I'm quite familiar with this place; maybe I can give you so advice," Inoichi Yamanaka said.
"I'm currently developing a Ninjutsu and need to find a special region for research."
"A special region?"
"Yes, just like Wind Breath Valley in this book, but unfortunately, this is the Hogoromo Clan's territory, and the information says outsiders are not allowed, so I'm still looking," Satoru said.
He felt a bit regretful because, according to the information, the storms generated inside Wind Breath Valley could turn huge rocks into powder and flesh into cotton; any living creature that passed through would be destroyed by the hurricane inside, turning into dust and disappearing into the world.
It was very suitable for researching the next celestial Ninjutsu, much better than the rain Ninjutsu researched from thunderstorms before, at least in terms of attack power.
Inoichi Yamanaka was stunned upon hearing this: "Goodness, you created a secret Ninjutsu in your teens, and now you have new research? How does your brain work? You're almost catching up to the Second Hokage!"
When Dianjing Pupil Setting Hand was created, he had explained a lot about the combination of physical and spiritual energy, as well as the techniques of Yin-release nature transformation to Satoru!
And now again.
This talent, he truly was his subordinate.
"There's still a big gap compared to the Second Hokage, please don't praise ," Satoru said with an awkward smile.
In his eyes, his achievents were a world apart compared to that entire sealing scroll.
Many of his current Ninjutsu researches were slowly developed by standing on the shoulders of the Second Hokage's giant achievents!
"Haha, indeed, but I have a way to solve your problem," Inoichi Yamanaka laughed.
"What way?"
"It's truly a coincidence; even heaven is helping you.
The Wind Breath Valley you just ntioned, there's an opportunity to enter it in five days, but you can only stay for so ti; after that, you'll have to figure it out yourself."
"Oh, what opportunity?"
"The Hogoromo Clan has issued an A-rank mission to Konoha, wanting to hire a team to help supervise the children training in Wind Breath Valley. The leader must be a Jonin, and it's best if all team mbers are sensory Ninja," Inoichi Yamanaka said with a smile.
Satoru: "Aren't they also a Ninja clan? Why do they need to hire our Konoha Ninja?"
Even if they declined, they shouldn't need outsiders to guard their clan's children during trials, right?
"You're looking at very old information, aren't you? The Hogoromo Clan's current power is not what it was during the Warring States Period. Most of their energy is now focused on business, and only so clan mbers undergo Ninja training to deal with unexpected situations.
"This ti, they have a major collaboration with one of the world's few shipping companies and have dispatched most of their clan's combat power to personally escort it. It just happens to be during the Hogoromo Clan's trial period, so they have no choice but to hire Konoha Ninja."
Inoichi Yamanaka explained.
"Since you've found inspiration for developing new Ninjutsu, apply to Lord Third Hokage.
"Currently, the major Ninja villages are relatively calm, and Konoha doesn't have any important missions, so I think it will be approved."
Satoru realised upon hearing this: "This is truly too coincidental. Thank you, Inoichi-san."
It truly was a case of being at one's wit's end, only to find a new path!
He finally experienced such protagonist-like treatnt once.
"Mmm, keep it up. I'll just work a bit longer and concurrently act as the head of the Analysis Team. You must finish quickly; I'm getting old, and my bones can't handle this high-intensity work anymore, sigh!"
Inoichi Yamanaka, looking like an old man, confided in him.
"…"
Goodness, he didn't forget to remind to finish my Ninjutsu research quickly so I can ease his workload, right?
It's truly you, Head of the Intelligence Departnt.
However, most of the work in the Intelligence Departnt indeed requires strong ntal activity, which is much more tiring than most jobs.
