Chapter 87: Once Again Renowned Throughout the Ninja World, Gojo Yoru's New Title
"Lord Gojo!"
"Master Ye!"
When Gojo Yoru arrived at the location of that ninja squad, all four special Jonin had already been killed.
The people who killed them were three secret service squads, a total of twelve people.
If Hiruzen Sarutobi hadn't known that Yoru Gojo possessed the ability to conceal his chakra aura, he would never have agreed to his plan.
Even if they choose to support them, they still send out three secret squads, ready to assist Gojo Yoru in interrupting the plan and reclaiming those supplies.
Upon seeing Gojo Yoru appear, the twelve members of the Anbu greeted him with great respect.
The three legendary Sannin of Konoha didn't know what Yoru Gojo's secret mission was, but the members of the Anbu knew very well.
Although it's unknown whether Gojo Yoru's side succeeded, they successfully eliminated four special Jonin without any members being injured or the supplies being damaged, so they've already made a huge profit.
Normally, even if they outnumbered the enemy, without the help of intelligence and tactics, they would not be able to guarantee that they could capture all four special Jonin.
Now that they have most of a day to prepare and know the enemy's location, the three secret service squads can take them down without taking any damage.
It was clear that this plan to lure the enemy was proposed by Gojo Yoru, and the members of the Anbu were full of admiration for this man who had become famous in the ninja world a few months ago and had even injured a salamander.
Not only is he exceptionally talented and incredibly strong, but he is also remarkably intelligent.
If nothing unexpected happens, this person should become one of the village's top combat forces in a few years.
Hello.
Gojo Yoru raised his hand in response, then took out a photograph and handed it to the ANBU member who possessed his own Flying Thunder God kunai, instructing him, "Send this photograph to Lord Sakumo. I will report back to Lord Hokage."
"----yes!"
The member of the secret service took the photo, glanced at it subconsciously, and immediately his body trembled, his voice trembling even through the mask.
This reaction aroused the curiosity of the other members.
What kind of photo could have caused such a strong emotional reaction from their captain?
"The delivery of supplies is now in your hands."
"Yes."
After handing over the duties to the members of the Dark Side, Gojo Yoru instantly disappeared.
"Captain, what was that photo that Gojo-sama gave you? It scared you so much!"
"Yes, let's take a look too."
As soon as Gojo Yoru left, the other Anbu members surrounded him, all looking at the photo.
The member of the secret service did not stop them, but instead changed the angle so that everyone could see it.
Someone wanted to see it more clearly, so they somehow got hold of a lamp and shone it on the photograph.
"hiss----"
The next second, gasps of shock rang out almost simultaneously.
Then came a series of voices, all trembling noticeably.
"What...what kind of hell on earth is this?"
"What a gruesome and terrifying scene! Look next to those dismembered corpses, there are many Flying Thunder God Techniques. They were all killed by Lord Ye using the Flying Thunder God Technique."
"They were wearing the same ANBU uniforms and masks as us, yet they all died in the cave. There were no signs of battle or ninjutsu around them; they were clearly killed before they could even react. Is this—is this the power of the Flying Thunder God Technique? Is this the strength of the Black Flash?"
"As expected of the only being in the ninja world to have injured a salamander in decades, that's truly amazing!"
"————"
At first, all the members of the Anbu were shocked and amazed by the Flying Thunder God Technique and the power of Gojo Yoru.
Suddenly, one of the ANBU members spoke up in disbelief: "Hey, hey—aren't you guys missing the point? Look at that dismembered body in the photo, the one not wearing an ANBU uniform. Look closely at his face, see who he is?!"
Reminded by their comrades, the members of the Dark Guard re-examined the photo, including the captain, who hadn't looked at it carefully before, only startled by the pile of Dark Guard corpses.
Then silence fell, and everyone went silent.
The Dark Division commander was the first to recover. He quickly put the photos away and said in a deep voice, "Hurry up and organize the supplies. Make sure to deliver them to the White Fang front as quickly as possible."
"yes!"
The remaining eleven people responded solemnly in unison.
Although his voice no longer trembled, his heart was filled with turbulent waves, and he took action, going all out.
They could all foresee the enormous impact this photo would have if it reached the battlefield.
At best, it could greatly boost morale; at worst, it could drastically alter the course of the war.
It is certain that Konoha will begin to gain the upper hand in this confrontation with the Land of Wind.
The thought that this photo might disrupt the four-month-long balance made the twelve members of the Dark Division feel a sense of awe towards Gojo Yoru.
They had only heard that the salamander had been injured.
It is called a feat because Hanzo the Salamander himself admitted it.
As for the extent of the salamander's injuries, no one knows.
During this probing period, Hanzo the Salamander did not make a move, and no one dared to go to Amegakure to fight him.
The ninjas from the four countries, including the Rain Village, haven't seen the most poisonous creature in the ninja world for a long time.
And now, they have personally participated in and witnessed Gojo Yoru accomplishing another feat that could potentially influence the course of the war.
A kind of instinct for admiration for strength, unrelated to age but hidden in human nature, makes them both respectful of Gojo Yoru and intensely worshipful.
They were absolutely convinced at that moment.
With Gojo Yoru there, Konoha will surely win this battle!
"Cough cough————"
In the morning, as soon as Hiruzen Sarutobi arrived at work, he received a photo from a better angle.
He was leisurely smoking his pipe when he almost choked to death.
The reaction was as intense as if they had heard the news of Rope Tree's sacrifice.
-
Hiruzen Sarutobi's face flushed crimson, his eyes fixed on Gojo Yoru in disbelief: "You—you killed Ebizo?"
"Yes, I brought his head back as well."
Gojo Yoru took out a storage scroll and placed it on the Hokage's desk, saying with certainty, "I've checked it, and it's definitely the original."
"————"
Hiruzen Sarutobi picked up the storage scroll on the table, his gaze shifting back and forth between the photos and the scroll, his heart filled with shock and speechlessness.
Ebizo's status was equivalent to that of Koharu Utatane and Homura Mitokado, second only to Danzo Shimura, who served as Hokage's assistant.
His death was a major event in all five great ninja villages, equivalent to the sacrifice of an elder, a top member of the upper echelons.
Hiruzen Sarutobi never imagined that Yoru Gojo's plan would catch such a big fish and successfully eliminate him.
He supported Gojoya's plan because the southwestern location was simply too perfect; once the enemy was lured out, they would have virtually no chance of escape.
However, Hiruzen Sarutobi's best-case scenario was to wipe out only one or two ninja squads.
After all, this kind of trap could fool some uneducated ninjas who were only good at being tools, but it couldn't fool the enemy's strategist team.
His main purpose was to use this trap to deter the ninja squads that had infiltrated the Land of Fire, so that they would not dare to easily plunder supplies.
Otherwise, even if you manage to steal it, it will be difficult to bring it back to your own camp.
To his utter surprise, Gojo Yoru actually caught a big fish, along with dozens of elite members of the Anbu (Anbu-level) unit.
Deploying such a force would surely involve thoroughly searching the area within a radius of tens of kilometers to ensure there are no traps or ambushes before taking action.
This was a lineup that was completely wiped out by Gojo Yoru in the cave before they could even take action.
How did he manage to keep the enemy from discovering all those Flying Thunder God Techniques scattered all over the ground?
Hiruzen Sarutobi suddenly realized that he seemed to have underestimated Yoru Gojo's Phantom Body Flicker Technique.
That ability to perfectly conceal chakra aura, combined with the Earth Flicker Technique, is even more terrifying than the Transparent Escape Technique.
But the Hokage is still the Hokage.
Although he was deeply shocked, Hiruzen Sarutobi smiled and praised him generously, saying, "You did a fantastic job. This plan is even more perfect than I expected. However, you should have informed me as soon as you got back."
"It's just too late, so I didn't want to disturb you, Hokage-sama," Gojo Yoru said with a smile. "Besides, the reason the Anbu is the Anbu is because the information is unknown. Nobody knows if those Anbu members are truly Anbu. It's just that the death of an elder who controls the intelligence agency doesn't seem to have much impact on the course of the war."
"No, this has a huge impact." Hiruzen Sarutobi stared at the scroll in his hand, unable to hide his excitement. "If it really is the original body, then its brain must contain a lot of information. If we can successfully crack it, not only will we have access to the spies lurking in our Land of Fire, but also the list of Sunagakure's spies planted in various countries, as well as a lot of their secrets."
"The scales of victory in this war have already tipped in our favor."
Hiruzen Sarutobi said to Yoru Gojo, "You killed Ebizo, which not only affected the battlefield, but also the ninja village and even the entire country. This is an undeniable S-class mission achievement."
Upon hearing this, Gojo Yoru feigned surprise and asked, "Then can I exchange for forbidden techniques?"
Seeing that Gojo Yoru was finally showing signs of being a boy, Hiruzen Sarutobi's smile widened: "Of course, apart from the forbidden techniques that are strictly prohibited and can only be practiced by the Hokage, you can choose any forbidden technique from either the Scroll of Seals or the Forbidden Technique Library."
Instead of immediately stating the ninjutsu she wanted, Gojo Yoru asked, "Hokage-sama, do you have a list?"
"certainly."
Hiruzen Sarutobi opened a locked drawer and quickly took out a scroll with a sealing technique from a pile of small scrolls.
Using a technique to break the seal, Hiruzen Sarutobi threw the scroll to Yoru Gojo.
Gojo took the scroll and began to read.
The list contains extremely powerful or special ninjutsu that are so dangerous that they could cause irreversible damage or even death to the user. Therefore, they are strictly controlled by the village and can only be exchanged by those with exceptional talent and outstanding battle achievements.
The first thing that catches the eye is one of Naruto Uzumaki's three signature moves from the original work, the Multiple Shadow Clone Technique, which can only be practiced with Chaton Lash, otherwise it can easily threaten one's life.
A few months ago, Orochimaru taught him the Illusion Technique: Dark Walk, which, like the Multiple Shadow Clone Technique, was only of Rank A, but was listed in the Book of Seals.
Then there are the remaining A-rank forbidden techniques and a series of ultimate ninjutsu, as well as a few super ultimate techniques that are so powerful that they are known as super S-rank ninjutsu.
For example, Gojo Yoru's Flying Thunder God Technique and Kato Dan's Spirit Transformation Technique.
However, Gojo Yoru did not see the Impure World Reincarnation Technique and the Eight-Headed Serpent Technique stolen by Orochimaru in this list, nor did he see Hiruko, who was a classmate of the Legendary Sannin of Konoha but is still unknown because his talent is far inferior to theirs, and the Fusion Ninjutsu: Oni-Garra that he will secretly research in the future.
Clearly, these unethical ninjutsu techniques are strictly forbidden and cannot be practiced by anyone other than the Hokage.
Thinking of the Oni-Garra Technique, Gojo Yoru's expression became somewhat dazed.
His original strategy was to transform himself into a patchwork monster, fusing the bloodline of the Uchiha clan, using the Sharingan to counterbalance Hashirama's cells, making himself a more advanced Wood Release experimental subject with massive chakra, capable of transplanting the Rinnegan, and ultimately becoming an enhanced version of Six Paths Obito.
The Demon Sprout Technique is one of the ninjutsu he must obtain.
But now, Gojo Yoru no longer needs to follow this piecemeal approach.
Hiruzen Sarutobi, unaware of Gojo Yoru's thoughts, saw him staring blankly at the scroll and couldn't help but chuckle, "Don't know which ninjutsu to choose?"
"No, I've already made my choice, Hokage-sama." Gojo Yoru snapped out of his daze and gave his answer, "I want the Mutual Multiplication Explosive Tags technique invented by the Second Hokage."
"The technique of multiplying explosive tags?"
Sarutobi Hiyori was somewhat surprised and quickly reminded him, "This technique is similar to Hanzo's Explosive Flame Formation. In reality, it's just a formation. You need to store a large number of explosive tags to unleash its maximum power."
"I won't lie to you, this technique actually has a forbidden technique that goes with it, but that technique violates ethics and is forbidden for anyone to practice."
"Without the right combination, the Multiplicative Explosive Tags Technique is just an A-rank forbidden technique."
"Achieving a super S-level merit requires not only strength but also a certain amount of luck. It might not happen even once in ten years. I suggest you reconsider."
Gojo Yoru replied without hesitation, "No need to think about it, Hokage-sama, I'll choose this ninjutsu."
If he had the Impure World Reincarnation Technique and the Demon Sparrow Technique, Gojo Yoru would definitely choose them without hesitation, and he had already come up with an excuse.
Without these two techniques, the most valuable ninjutsu in the game are the super S-rank Flying Thunder God Technique and Spirit Transformation Technique, as well as some S-rank secret techniques like sealing techniques.
These sealing techniques are also found in the Sealing Book of Uzushiogakure, and Gojo Yoru already knew how to cultivate them.
Might Guy was not yet famous in the ninja world, and the Eight Gates were not among the Qing Dynasty's disciples.
Although the Spirit Transformation Technique is powerful, its weaknesses are obvious. Even if the cautious Gojo Yoru learns it, he will never use it in his lifetime.
What if his soul leaves his body and a white Zetsu appears and knocks his body over?
Therefore, Gojo Yoru chose the technique of multiplying explosive tags.
As a time traveler, he knew that besides the Impure World Transformation Technique, there was another technique that was a perfect match for it.
That's Xiao Nan's paper escape technique.
Explosive tags, like storage scrolls, are made by people with this kind of talent.
Such technology is not difficult to obtain; Xiao Nan in the original work certainly possessed such technology.
Otherwise, even if you searched the entire ninja world, you wouldn't have that many explosive tags, totaling six hundred billion.
If one obtains the technology to manufacture explosive tags, one can mass-produce them. Combined with Paper Release and the technique of multiplying explosive tags, Konan's artistic talent will be even more dazzling than Deidara's, unless the other party uses Patrick Star.
Seeing Gojo Yoru's determination, Hiruzen Sarutobi stopped pressuring him and quickly copied an independent scroll of the Mutual Multiplication Explosion Tags Technique, handing the ornament to Gojo Yoru.
"Logically speaking, the forbidden techniques in the Book of Seals will all have a special sealing technique on the scroll," Hiyori Sarutobi said with a smile. "When the person using the unsealing technique opens the scroll, the sealing technique will automatically be implanted into the user's body, preventing them from passing the technique on to a second person. Anyone who breaks the sealing technique without authorization will be classified as a rogue ninja."
"However, since you have rendered outstanding service to Ren Zi, I will take the liberty of not attaching a sealing technique to this A-level forbidden technique and allow you to teach it to others."
"Thank you, Lord Hokage." Gojo Yoru respectfully accepted the scroll.
Sarutobi Hiyori patted Gojo Yoru's shoulder heavily: "You've had a tough time on this trip, Ren Cheng. Go back to Mori and get some rest for a few days."
"Yes."
As he watched Gojo Yoru leave the office with a smile, the moment the door closed, Sarutobi Hiyori's expression changed. He raised his hand and made a gesture, then looked at the Anbu member who had appeared out of thin air in front of him, and said solemnly, "In my name, Mori requests that the head of the Yamanaka clan come here. At the same time, notify the Sealing Team and the Torture Department, and have them prepare to break the seal and extract information."
"yes!"
The operative lowered his head and vanished in an instant.
Soon, the Hokage Building's intelligence agency was up and running.
Compared to Yuya, who is an ally of Uzushiogakure, the sealing techniques and restrictions of Shikata Ninja Village are as vulnerable as children's toys.
The intelligence department effortlessly cracked the sealing techniques and restrictions in Ebizo's brain, read his memories and intelligence, and confirmed that he was indeed Ebizo. At the same time, the intelligence was presented to Hiyori Sarutobi in the form of scrolls.
Through these scrolls, Hiyori Sarutobi learned how Yoru Gojo had killed them.
"Speed as fast as a flash, with wisps of black electricity swirling around him, and his weapon covered in black Lightning Release nature transformation—" Hiyori Sarutobi's eyes were filled with surprise. "Could it be that Yoru has also developed a secret technique similar to the Third Raikage's: Black Lightning?"
"He developed the Black Lightning Technique in just a few months by exchanging secret technique scrolls with Jiraiya? What amazing ninjutsu talent! No wonder he learned the Flying Thunder God Technique and Lady Mito's Yin Seal in such a short time."
In Hiyori Sarutobi's eyes, Yoru Gojo was becoming more and more like Tobirama Senju.
If it weren't for the fact that he didn't have a huge amount of chakra, Hiyori Sarutobi would seriously doubt that Yoru Gojo might also have the bloodline of the Senju clan.
"Lord Hokage, Lord Sakumo has sent back information."
The figure from the Dark Division appeared out of thin air and handed over a scroll engraved with a sealing technique.
Upon receiving the unpacked package, Hiyori Sarutobi quickly revealed a smile.
Immediately, he picked up the photo given to him by Gojo Yoru, handed it to the Anbu, and instructed, "Mori, make mass copies of this photo, then seal it in a storage scroll and have Gojo Yoru send it to Sakumo."
"Yes."
Around noon.
A piece of news, a piece of intelligence, and a series of photographs suddenly spread from the White Fang Battlefront, which borders the Land of Rivers and the Land of Rain, and quickly spread throughout the entire battlefield of the four countries.
Black Flash Gojo Yoru once again became famous throughout the ninja world, becoming the most dazzling supernova!
Old Man Shin from Sunagakure in the Land of Wind, Ebizo, the younger brother of Chiyo, the Kazekage's assistant and the King of Information, along with fifty-four members of the Anbu, were killed in a cave in the Land of Rivers by Yuya's Black Flash using the Flying Thunder God Technique and Flying Thunder God Instant Kill!
After verification by Yu Ye, Ebizo is confirmed to be himself.
At the same time, Yu Ye made public the names of the informants and spies that Ebi had planted in various countries.
News and intelligence can be fabricated, but photographs—in this era—cannot be faked.
The cave, devoid of any signs of combat or ninjutsu, along with the nauseatingly dismembered Buddhist corpses, all prove that Yu Ye's public statements are true!
This deeply shocked the ninjas from the four countries, including Yu Ye.
Instant kill, not a one-against-fifty-five massacre!
At this moment, the Flying Thunder God Technique, whose power had diminished considerably in recent years due to the Second Hokage's defeat, was now adorned with Super S...
The reputation of this top-tier ninjutsu once again spread throughout the entire ninja world.
People remembered the man who made a pact with the sea and was hailed as the fastest ninja in the ninja world.
Regardless of how Gojo Yoru did it, his feat of instantly killing fifty-five Sand Ninja is an undeniable fact.
Moreover, the ninja he instantly killed was no small fry; he was Shinra from Sunagakure and an elite ANBU member. The quality of his encounter was truly exceptional.
The title of the fastest ninja in the world began to spread gradually.
Less than a year after the start of the war, Gojo Yoru is about to acquire a second title.
No battle record or stage can compare to the speed of fame gained from making great contributions on the battlefield.
Regardless of whether the information released by Yu Ye for free was true or false, the five major powers and a number of smaller countries began to arrest and investigate those undercover agents.
Sunagakure will surely suffer a severe blow.
The intelligence agencies don't know how many years it will take for them to recover.
Rain-Hidden Village, Tower.
"Didn't they set up a barrier inside the cave? That's impossible."
Hanzo the Salamander stared at the photograph in his hand, his eyes filled with apprehension: "So, even the Anbu, each with their own unique skills and top-tier abilities in their respective fields, along with their protective barriers, couldn't break through his ability to conceal his chakra aura?"
"What kind of secret technique is that? Even if it's a teleportation technique, it's nothing special, right?"
Looking at the Rain Ninja who handed over the intelligence, Hanzo of the Salamander suddenly spoke: "Order Shimomori that all Rain Ninja who encounter the Black Flash of Yuha during their term of office may choose to abandon their post and run away, as long as they save their lives. I will not punish them."
"yes!"
Yu Ren was startled, then lowered her head.
Iwagakure Village, Tsuchikage's Office.
"Dad, this photo can't be fake, can it?" Huang Tu's eyes trembled as he said in disbelief, "He killed Elder Xin, one of the five great ninja villages, and more than fifty ANBU members without even the ability to resist."
"Isn't this absurd?"
Huang Tu really wanted to say that he couldn't even kill a chicken this quickly.
Describing those high-level combatants in this way is extremely impolite and demeaning to oneself.
After all, he wasn't even a high-level combatant yet. Didn't that mean that in front of that black flash, he was not even as good as a chicken, just a small fish?
Is the Flying Thunder God Technique really that terrifying?!
Ignoring the yellow earth, Ohno Yu carefully examined the photo in his hand, looking for details to fill in.
"Each corpse was dismembered, not just cut in half, but sliced into several pieces. This is something that ordinary ninja tools and nature transformations could not achieve. It is said that the brat possessed the Second Hokage's Thunder God Sword, one of the sharpest ninja tools."
"This terrible loss must have been caused by that sword."
Staring at the Flying Thunder God Technique in the photo, Ohno Yu's eyes revealed a hint of apprehension: "This cave is clearly a secret base. Someone must have investigated it in advance and then set up one, or even multiple, barriers."
It's impossible for him to set up the Flying Thunder God Technique in this place beforehand.
"But this kid actually did it."
"Could it be that his Flying Thunder God Technique no longer requires a spell formula as a coordinate, and can also be used for teleportation and instantaneous movement? Is that possible? If so, he can teleport at will, and people with slow nerve reaction speeds would be instantly killed upon seeing him. The demon did not intend to ambush them in the cave."
"Yu Ye doesn't want to engage in any probing or tug-of-war with us. He can influence the entire situation on his own, and he can move freely anywhere."
"If his Flying Thunder God Technique hasn't surpassed that of the Second Hokage, then that explains why he's being portrayed as such."
Ohno Yu thought of the Second Tsuchikage's title and came to the conclusion: "This brat has a stealth ability similar to the Dustless Mystery. Even the Anbu, who each have their own unique skills, and the perception barrier, cannot detect his chakra. That's why Asa was able to set up so many Flying Thunder God Techniques and was instantly killed by the Flying Thunder God Technique."
"Order Shimonoseki to keep the combat and support troops on high alert. Avoid gathering together as much as possible. If you must gather, choose a spacious area and make sure someone checks the underground area."
"Yes."
The border base of the Land of Wind.
"Little brother, I'm so sorry—"
Chiyo stared at the photo in her hand, her vision blurred, her voice trembling, her heart breaking.
Her face was already wet with tears.
Then her expression suddenly turned ferocious, she clenched the photo in her hand until it was deformed, and said with hatred in her eyes, "Don't worry, I won't let you feel lonely. I will send more Yu Ye ninjas to accompany you to the Pure Land."
Looking at her adjutant beside her, Chiyo gritted her teeth and said, "Report to Kazekage and have Bunfuku come over to oversee the border base. I need to shift the battlefront."
"----yes!"
The adjutant responded in a trembling voice.
As a member of the command team, he had anticipated that the situation of the war was about to change.
Unless the Kazekage himself arrives, no one can stop the rampaging Chiyo-sama.
