"You can go out if you want."
Natsuki suddenly rembered that they had not t Nagato yet.
If, because of him, they stayed in the cave every day and never t Nagato, that would be a loss.
After all, now that he had the Jiraiya Template, he also had to teach Nagato.
"But for your safety, rember to bring these five dolls with you when you go out."
Natsuki stretched out both hand summoning ten dolls.
Konan's eyes lit up slightly.
All five dolls were very cute, and she liked them very much.
"Five dolls for each of you."
Natsuki explained, "If you encounter danger, take them out."
He deliberately left a portion of his soul inside the dolls.
That way, he could locate Konan and Yahiko at any ti.
If they encountered danger, he could also remotely control the dolls to attack.
As long as they did not encounter a Jonin, the dolls would be able to handle it.
"Thank you, Natsuki-sensei!"
Yahiko and Konan happily accepted the dolls.
Natsuki watched Konan looking at them as though she could not put them down, and a thought suddenly occurred to him.
In the original work, Yahiko specialized in Water Release, while Konan specialized in her secret paper techniques.
Natsuki could teach Yahiko Water Release, but he could not teach Konan her secret paper techniques.
However, he had an idea now. He could teach her Seith Magic: Doll Possession.
After being localized, Doll Possession was a Yin Release ninjutsu.
Because Yin Release possessed the ability to create form from nothing.
That was how the five dolls had been born.
As for the secret paper techniques, Natsuki suspected that Konan had created them herself.
Because Jiraiya did not know secret paper techniques, though it was also possible that he had given Konan so guidance.
But there was no need to rush when it ca to what to teach.
Natsuki had many character templates, so there was plenty he could teach.
Of course, there were also many things he could not teach, such as Tsuba Gaeshi and Unlimited Blade Works.
However, Natsuki had never planned to teach those in the first place.
After all, these were currently the foundation he relied on.
Unless he beca so powerful that he no longer needed them, he could try teaching them to others then.
"It is about ti. I have to go back, otherwise my teammates will get worried."
Natsuki stood up and said.
He had already taught them for a full day.
Fortunately, he had left a shadow clone behind when he ca out.
That was probably why Nawaki and the others had not co looking for him yet.
Yahiko and Konan imdiately looked reluctant to part.
Although they had only spent one day together, they had never experienced anything this wonderful before.
Not only had they eaten delicious bento, they could also learn ninjutsu.
Yesterday, this kind of life was sothing they would never have dared to imagine.
"I will co again tomorrow."
Natsuki said with a smile.
This mission required him to guard the lake island for three days.
"Goodbye, Natsuki-sensei!"
Yahiko and Konan said in unison.
Natsuki nodded slightly and turned to leave.
After leaving the cave, he found that the sky had already darkened. He imdiately sped up and headed toward the lake island.
"Natsuki, you are finally back!"
When Nawaki saw him, he imdiately asked, "Why were you gone for so long? Did sothing happen?"
"It was not anything major."
Natsuki said half-truthfully, "I t two displaced children and helped them a little."
No one doubted him.
They all understood Natsuki's personality.
Although he killed without hesitation, deep down, he was still a good person.
"What about those two children?"
Nawaki asked curiously.
"I sent them ho and gave them so food."
Natsuki replied.
"In these chaotic tis, it will probably be very hard for two children to survive."
Minato suggested, "I think we can send them to Konoha Orphanage."
There were two sources of orphans in Konoha Orphanage.
One source was people like Natsuki, whose parents had died while they were too young to live alone.
The other source was war orphans. Kabuto Yakushi was a war orphan from the Third Shinobi World War.
War orphans were not limited to orphans from Konoha. There were also orphans from other places.
For example, Kabuto was not originally an orphan from Konoha.
"I will make arrangents."
Natsuki nodded and said.
After hearing this, everyone said nothing more.
After dinner, they kept watch according to the previous arrangent.
And tonight, the team on watch happened to be Natsuki's team.
The night deepened.
But the rain never stopped.
"Do you think A shinobi can sneak in here?"
Nawaki yawned and asked.
"There are other shinobi squads arranged by Orochimaru-sama outside."
Kosuke smiled and said, "It will be difficult for A shinobi to sneak in."
Natsuki was just about to speak when his eyebrow suddenly rose.
With Clairvoyance and Night Vision active, he saw a figure flash through the dense forest in the valley on the left.
And the progress of Misaka Mikoto Template's Electromagnetic Wave Perception had increased by another fifth.
That ant the figure was an enemy, not a Konoha shinobi.
"Prepare for battle."
Natsuki warned.
"Did A shinobi really sneak in?"
Nawaki was surprised when he heard this.
Kosuke was also very surprised.
"The valley on the left."
After Natsuki spoke, he projected a bow.
It had been a long ti since he had used a bow.
The main reason was that he had been busy unlocking character template abilities during this period.
Although the bow was useful, it did not et many of the unlock conditions.
Nawaki and Kosuke exchanged glances and imdiately prepared themselves.
Natsuki looked toward the valley on the left.
Because the dense forest blocked his view, he could not determine the enemy's exact position, but that did not matter.
If accuracy was not enough, firepower would make up for it.
Natsuki pulled the bowstring.
A Sword of the Thunder God aid at the dense forest in the valley.
Armant Haki!
Reinforcent Magecraft!
The Sword of the Thunder God was imdiately covered in an invisible armor-like ripple.
But that was not all.
Railgun!
Natsuki released his hand.
Layers of lightning appeared over the Sword of the Thunder God's blade.
The night sky lit up for an instant.
The A shinobi in the valley imdiately noticed it, but it was already too late.
In the blink of an eye, the Sword of the Thunder God exploded violently.
Huge flas appeared out of nowhere, followed imdiately by lightning.
Fragnts carrying lightning spread outward like waves.
The A shinobi nearby all dodged outward.
And by dodging, they exposed themselves.
"What happened?"
Minato and Mikoto, who had been sleeping, imdiately appeared in front of them.
"Eight shinobi have infiltrated."
Natsuki imdiately said, "They are in the forest on the left. I suspect they wanted to infiltrate through the lake."
After saying that, he bent the bow and drew another arrow.
Armant Haki!
Reinforcent Magecraft!
Railgun!
The Sword of the Thunder God, enhanced by all three, flew out.
This ti, Natsuki aid at two fleeing A shinobi.
Surging flas and lightning intertwined, enveloping them.
They died amid screams.
Mikoto and the others all showed expressions of amazent.
They all knew Natsuki was skilled in archery.
But only after seeing it for themselves did they understand how terrifying that archery truly was.
Forget hidden arrows, even visible arrows were not sothing many shinobi could block.
The corner of Minato's mouth twitched.
He had only one thought. No wonder Natsuki was learning Lightning Release ninjutsu. So it was to use it with archery.
Although Nawaki and Nonō had long known that Natsuki was learning Lightning Release ninjutsu to strengthen his archery, they had not expected results so quickly.
It could only be described as terrifying.
"Chase them!"
As the experienced senior, Kosuke imdiately reminded everyone.
Everyone reacted and stepped across the water toward the forest on the left.
Natsuki stood in place without moving. He used arrows to block the A shinobi's escape routes, preventing them from fleeing imdiately.
After Kosuke and the others arrived, they successfully defeated them.
In the end, A's ambush failed, and the entire encounter lasted less than half an hour.
Katsuhisa Abura and the others felt sowhat unaccustod to it.
When they carried out missions, they were often life-or-death struggles and extrely difficult. When had things ever been this easy?
It could only be said that having a powerhouse in command really was different.
The next day.
The two shinobi teams patrolling outside the valley were changed to Mikoto's team and Katsuhisa's team.
Natsuki and Minato's teams remained on the lake island.
Just like yesterday, after leaving behind a shadow clone, Natsuki headed toward Yahiko's secret base.
On the road, Natsuki suddenly rembered sothing.
Did the Jiraiya Template have too few abilities?
Especially senjutsu. Not a single senjutsu was ntioned.
Among the senjutsu Jiraiya was best at, the most classic ones were Sage Art: Hair Needle Senbon, Sage Art: Massive Rasengan, and Sage Art: Goemon.
It was normal for Sage Art: Massive Rasengan not to appear.
The Jiraiya Template Natsuki had obtained was from the Third Shinobi World War period.
Sage Art: Massive Rasengan was created by Naruto, who was born after the Third Shinobi World War ended.
But Jiraiya definitely knew Sage Art: Hair Needle Senbon and Sage Art: Goemon.
Natsuki fell into thought.
Was it because those two senjutsu ca from Mount Myōboku?
Especially Sage Art: Goemon, which required Jiraiya, Fukasaku, and Shima to perform together.
Moreover, in theory, after he mastered Sage Mode, he could learn these senjutsu himself.
Natsuki soon arrived at Yahiko's secret base.
"Natsuki-sensei!"
When Konan and Yahiko saw him, they called out happily.
"Mm."
Natsuki nodded and said, "Continue your training."
Hearing this, Konan and Yahiko resud training.
They were both very diligent.
Because they had experienced chaotic tis, they knew how hard this opportunity was to co by and were determined to seize it no matter what.
Natsuki did not stay idle.
After thinking it over, he temporarily decided not to learn Fire Release ninjutsu.
Although Fire Release: Fire Dragon Fla Bullet was powerful, it was not irreplaceable.
Natsuki continued learning Wind Release and Lightning Release.
Two days passed quickly.
"I am returning to Konoha's main camp. From now on, I will not be able to co see you every day."
Natsuki looked at Konan and Yahiko as he spoke.
The two of them inevitably looked a little disappointed.
But both had matured early, so they said nothing and only nodded.
Natsuki thought for a mont, ford hand seals, and used the Summoning Technique.
The monkey Ensei appeared.
If summons also had ranks, then the monkey clan was undoubtedly a high-level summon.
They were intelligent and knew ninjutsu and taijutsu.
Although Ensei could not compare to Enma, its strength was still greater than most Chunin.
More importantly, it could also guide Konan and Yahiko.
If they encountered an unbeatable enemy, it could also notify Natsuki.
"Be careful."
Natsuki reached out and stroked Konan's head, then turned and left.
He returned to the lake island.
After completing the handover with the newly arrived Konoha shinobi squad, Natsuki, Minato, and the others returned to Konoha's main camp.
"You did very well."
Inside the main tent, Orochimaru looked at Natsuki, Nawaki, and the others and praised them.
"What is our current situation?"
Nawaki asked curiously.
"Of course, it is going very smoothly."
Jiraiya laughed and said, "A can be said to be retreating step by step."
"We estimate that A will begin a decisive battle with us very soon."
The corners of Tsunade's mouth lifted as she said this.
"Although the current situation is good, do not forget that Hanzō has not made a move yet."
Orochimaru reminded them, "Hanzō will not wait passively for defeat. We need to be even more careful next."
"That is true."
Tsunade paused, then said, "You have worked hard these three days. Go rest."
Everyone bowed slightly and left the main tent.
"Natsuki."
Katsuhisa smiled and said, "Working with you was very pleasant. I hope we have another chance to do a mission together."
After saying that, he left with his team mbers.
Mikoto looked at Natsuki.
For a mont, she did not know what to say.
"See you next ti."
Natsuki said with a smile.
Mikoto nodded gently.
"The main camp is still better. At least we do not have to get soaked every day."
After the two shinobi squads left, Nawaki relaxed.
Konoha's main camp had a barrier set up, so they would not be drenched by the rain.
"The war is about to end. You need to seize the ti to beco stronger."
Natsuki patted his shoulder and said, "Maybe after the war ends, you can even beco a Jonin."
In war, accumulating enough rit was also one path to becoming a Jonin.
For example, Kakashi in the original work beca a Jonin at the age of twelve because he had earned enough rit and was promoted as an exception.
"Right!"
Nawaki imdiately beca fired up.
Ti slowly passed.
November passed, and December arrived.
Inside Konoha's main camp, in the main tent.
"I have an important mission for you."
Orochimaru took out a scroll and handed it to Natsuki.
Natsuki opened it and glanced over it, finding that it was an escort-reception mission.
Simply put, a batch of supplies had departed from Konoha and was being delivered here.
For safety's sake, Orochimaru wanted them to go and receive the supplies.
"You will set out tomorrow."
Orochimaru continued, "At normal speed, you will arrive at the border of the Land of Fire the morning after tomorrow, just in ti to et them."
"Yes, Sensei."
Natsuki imdiately answered.
"Minato will go with you as well."
Jiraiya said with a smile.
Natsuki nodded, not surprised.
Over the past month, they had basically been carrying out missions together with Minato's team.
Natsuki put away the mission scroll and left the main tent.
He glanced at the sky and decided to go to Yahiko's secret base.
After all, he had not gone there for three days. He did not know how they were doing.
Thinking this, Natsuki left Konoha's main camp.
Under normal circumstances, no one was allowed to leave privately without a mission.
But with his current strength and status, an exception could be made.
As Natsuki walked, he activated Electromagnetic Wave Perception.
This was one of his achievents over the past month.
In war, detecting infiltrating enemies five tis was not difficult.
He had unlocked the Misaka Mikoto Template's Electromagnetic Wave Perception half a month ago.
Natsuki had already tested it before. Electromagnetic Wave Perception could detect every movent within three kiloters.
Combined with his Clairvoyance, it was practically unbeatable.
And that was not all. Electromagnetic Wave Perception could also detect nearby tal objects, such as iron sand.
This made it easier for him to use electromagnetic force, or rather, Magnet Release.
Aside from that, he had also unlocked Artoria Template's Mana Burst.
Its unlock condition was to defeat five Jonin using swordsmanship.
At the sa ti, he had learned one more Lightning Release ninjutsu and one more Wind Release ninjutsu.
Natsuki suddenly let out a soft sound of surprise.
Because he discovered that Yahiko's secret base now had one more person.
Could it be him?
Thinking this, Natsuki walked inside.
"Natsuki-sensei!"
Konan was the first to notice him and walked forward.
Natsuki smiled and stroked her blue-purple hair.
But his gaze fell on the little boy beside Yahiko.
Red hair and... the Rinnegan.
Without question, he was Nagato.
Nagato's Rinnegan ca from Madara.
But he did not know that and had always thought he had awakened it himself.
This caused him, after falling into darkness, to call himself a god and believe that he was the second Sage of Six Paths.
Of course, Madara had no good intentions either.
He chose Nagato for two reasons.
One was to have him nurture the Rinnegan.
The other was to make him sacrifice himself and use the Rinnegan's ability, Outer Path: Samsara of Heavenly Life Technique, to revive him.
In the end, because of Naruto's Talk no Jutsu, Madara's plan failed to co true.
But after Nagato died, the executor beca Obito, and Madara still achieved his resurrection.
To summarize, Nagato's life was a tragedy.
Madara had set his ending from the ti he was young.
"Natsuki-sensei, this is Nagato."
Yahiko said sowhat nervously, "We found him unconscious outside, so we made the decision on our own and brought him back."
"It is fine."
Natsuki smiled and said, "In chaotic tis, people should help one another."
"Konan, I told you Natsuki-sensei would not bla us!"
When Yahiko heard this, he imdiately said happily.
Konan lowered her head in embarrassnt.
Nagato glanced at the Konoha forehead protector on Natsuki's forehead and remained silent.
"Teaching two is teaching, and teaching three is also teaching."
Natsuki looked at Nagato and said, "From now on, you will learn ninjutsu together with them."
Nagato could not help freezing.
He had not expected Natsuki to teach him, soone he had never t before.
Putting aside the Rinnegan, Nagato was also a super genius.
In the original work, by the age of ten, he had mastered six chakra nature transformations, including Yang Release.
In other words, he could use almost all mainstream ninjutsu.
But that was normal.
After all, Madara had chosen him very carefully.
In the original work, when he transplanted the Rinnegan into Nagato, the Uzumaki Clan still existed, yet he still did not choose anyone else.
When evening ca, Natsuki said goodbye to them and told them he would co again after so ti.
After all, his next mission would take at least three days.
Natsuki returned to Konoha's main camp.
He was thinking about one question.
Should he tell Jiraiya and the others about the existence of the three children?
After thinking carefully, there did not seem to be any need.
It was just that Natsuki could not stay in the Land of Rain for three years.
Even if he wanted to rebuild the Land of Rain and A, he would not co here every day.
If only he had the Flying Thunder God Technique, it would be convenient.
Natsuki shook his head and stopped thinking about it. He would see how things went after the war ended.
(To be continued.)
