Naruto: Modern Science in Naruto

Chapter 141: MSIN: Chapter 140



---

Minato's sudden appearance was a complete surprise for Haori.

So, he was still quite depressed. It wasn't that he had any resentment towards Minato's appearance, after all, he had come to help. But this couldn't hide the fact that the bird had flown the coop.

And it was a big bird… uh, that description is a bit awkward. A young bird?

As for Haori's slightly paranoid thought that he was being monitored, this unreliable guess only flashed through his mind for a moment. Its unreasonableness directly negated this possibility.

He was a pure-blooded Third Hokage disciple. He didn't have any anti-ninja, or anti-Konoha tendencies. He wasn't always diligent when carrying out missions, but at least he hadn't messed anything up. Konoha didn't need to monitor him.

Besides, even if you were monitoring someone, would you use a ninja of Minato's level? Especially during this time when combat power is precious?

When you're full, you think about ***. To put it simply, there's only time for infighting during peacetime. This is the legendary "being full and having nothing better to do." Right now, external pressure outweighs everything. Even the proud Uchiha have to obediently go to the battlefield. Life or death depends on your skills. Danzō, who always wants to make a big splash, has to keep his evil schemes bottled up.

As for the Flying Thunder God seal on Haori's body, well, let's keep it for now. Maybe it can save his life someday. Minato rarely does bad things. It's just that this one in ten thousand chance happened to Haori.

"The enemy who could make you use that kind of technique must be quite extraordinary…"

"Haori, tell me about the situation here."

After a certain agitated emotion subsided, Minato immediately asked about the situation here.

"Did you run into Kakashi earlier, Minato-sensei?" Haori didn't answer Minato's question immediately. Instead, he asked this question back.

Otherwise, there would be no explanation for why Minato flew directly to his side…

So, Kakashi's actions were very fast.

"Yes. He's currently bringing the message to Orochimaru-sama on the island. I've heard the general story from him… I was already not far from here. I happened to run into Kakashi on the sea." Minato said.

Not only Haori suspected that Kirigakure had received a signal and started to evacuate collectively, but Minato also had this idea. That's why he came to search this side of the sea. That's why he ran into Kakashi so quickly.

"Earlier, Kakashi and I did catch up with the Kirigakure ninjas who had gathered. Roughly speaking, there were…" Haori listed the names of the ninjas he had identified earlier.

"Basically, the enemy's strength is all above elite Jōnin…" Minato immediately made this judgment after hearing those names.

"Right. So, we didn't get too close to the enemy at the time. We chose to retreat directly… But for some reason, our whereabouts were still exposed. That's why the Kirigakure ninjas chased after us. Considering that the ninja who came to chase us was probably the strongest among the enemy, I asked Kakashi to bring the information back temporarily, and I stayed behind to fight alone."

Haori continued. "The facts proved that my judgment was correct. The enemy who came after us was probably Yagura of Kirigakure."

As he spoke, he tried to swing the weapon the enemy had left behind.

Minato's eyes turned to that special ninja tool. This kind of unique weapon could indeed help confirm the user's identity.

"This weapon… it should indeed belong to Yagura." Minato said. If the enemy's identity was this person, then he would understand why Haori had used that kind of technique.

"Your move… Lightning Garden Heavy Country…" Minato seemed to want to say something, but he stopped himself.

He was actually just regretting that such a jutsu already had a name.

Let's just say Minato is bad at naming things.

There's nothing wrong with that. Everyone has things they're good at and things they're not good at.

But he also has a naming obsession.

These two things combined are a bit fatal.

It's a good thing Haori just came up with a name casually. What if Minato had named the Railgun "Armstrong Spiral Acceleration Armstrong Cannon"?

At this time, Minato also understood why he had suddenly appeared. He had actually caused Haori to miss a great opportunity to eliminate a strong enemy.

Unfortunately, you can't get a second chance.

After Minato arrived, Haori's attack went astray, and he stopped releasing "Lightning Release" to prevent accidental injury. Yagura instantly merged with the seawater and disappeared.

Haori couldn't sense the enemy's whereabouts. But he figured that he wouldn't return. He should have just run away.

Minato's flashy entrance and his blonde hair and other physical characteristics were enough to scare Yagura away.

Under normal circumstances, when Yagura was in full condition, he probably wouldn't mind trying to fight the legendary Golden Flash. But at this time, because of the last attack, he had recognized that Haori was on par with him in strength. If you add the famous Minato Namikaze, would he have a chance of winning? It's impossible, no matter what. So, he weighed the situation and chose to run away.

"Minato-sensei, what should we do now?" Haori asked.

Although Minato didn't have overall command of the operation, it was clear that he should be the one to make the decision now.

In Minato's eyes, Haori played with Yagura's weapon a few times, then probably decided that it was too inconvenient, so he threw it into a ditch…

Minato's eyelids twitched involuntarily.

Congratulations to Konoha Chunin Kamizuki Haori for earning the title "Ninja Tool Discarder."

In fact, for Haori, if he could kill an enemy, he would kill them. If he could force a kill, he would force a kill. If he couldn't kill them, he wouldn't force it. If the enemy ran away, he wouldn't feel that it was a pity… Essentially, he wasn't lacking in motivation, but his goals weren't clear.

Pacifying the world? Achieving peace? Honestly, he hadn't thought about these things much. He always felt that it was someone else's job. For him, being a ninja was just like clocking in and out of work.

This perception would only change after he experienced certain changes.

Faced with Haori's question, Minato was also a little conflicted. In fact, what happened to the Byakugan was already pretty clear. This mission could end here.

The Byakugan had been in the hands of the same ninja all along. He was a Kirigakure reconnaissance ninja named Ao. He was the one who launched the final attack on the Hyuga clan, and he was also the one who took the precious loot and returned to Kirigakure with the Byakugan.

Minato thought for a moment, then said, "Haori, you go back to Uzushiogakure. I'll go check out the situation ahead."

He still decided to go and scout ahead, but there was basically no chance of fighting anymore, so he didn't need to bring Haori.

As for Minato himself, no matter what enemy he faced, he could choose to leave at any time.
