Chapter 40: Pioneer (Please recommend, vote monthly, and read on)



In Minato Namikaze's room, there was a stack of large bills on the table.

This was brought back by Shuichi Hoshita.

Minato Namikaze looked at the bills, then looked at Shuichi Hoshita: "The daimyo wants to recruit you?"

Shuichi Hoshita nodded, then told him the whole story.

Minato Namikaze was stunned, thought for a while, and finally said: "Double agent?"

Shuichi Hoshita pinched his chin and thought: "It seems not bad?"

He really didn't think about being a double agent.

He just wanted to cheat the daimyo's investment, and then get some resources from Sarutobi Hiruzen after returning to Konoha.

This was him borrowing Konoha, or the secret confrontation between the Hokage and the daimyo, to profit from it.

Minato Namikaze's political sensitivity was not low, and he followed the thinking of the Hokage.

If it was the third generation Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, he would not miss this opportunity to make him a double agent.

Namikaze Minato thought: "Put the money away and don't tell anyone else. When I return to Konoha, I will explain it to the Third Hokage in person."

"Understood."

Hoshita Hide nodded, put the money away but did not leave. Instead, he took out a scroll and opened it, smiling: "Teacher Minato, this is a technique I designed. Because it involves the brain, I dare not try it easily."

Technique?

Namikaze Minato was surprised, then took the scroll and looked at it carefully.

The technique was not complicated, even very simple for him, but the conception was quite ingenious.

Looking up at Shuichi Hoshita, Minato Namikaze was even more surprised: "I didn't expect that Shuichi was also good at curses and sealing techniques."

Shuichi Hoshita said "shyly": "I learned it when I was making detonating talismans."

"I have summed up a unique memory technique, which I call the memory palace."

Shuichi Hoshita explained to Minato Namikaze: "Because of the practice of shadow clones, I had the idea of ​​developing this technique."

Minato Namikaze nodded: "So I want the memories brought back by the shadow clones to directly enter your memory palace through this technique without causing shock and confusion to the brain."

"Do you want to accumulate practice experience through shadow clones?"

Shuichi Hoshita nodded.

Namikaze Minato immediately reminded: "The various memories brought back by the shadow clone are only one aspect, and fatigue also needs to be vigilant."

"There is a limit to people's tolerance."

Hoshita Shuichi hurriedly said: "Teacher Minato, don't worry, I will pay attention."

Namikaze Minato still recognized Hoshita Shuichi's calmness, so he didn't say more, just asked about the details of the memory palace while re-examining the technique on the scroll.

"Shuichi, you actually used the entire Konoha as a container for memory, which is a genius idea."

"In this case, adding illusions should be better."

"Well, it also needs to be based on chakra, supplemented by sealing techniques, just like building a library."

"Shuichi, although your technique is simple, you can achieve this level just by learning the detonating tag. You have an extraordinary talent in sealing techniques."

...

Namikaze Minato wrote and drew, and revised.

Hoshita Shuichi's originally simple technique became visibly complicated.

About two hours later, Minato Namikaze put down his pen and said with a smile: "Well, it should be almost done."

"With your chakra, Shuichi, there should be no problem in performing it."

"Of course, in order to maintain the seal, you still need to use chakra all the time, which is also a consumption for you."

In Shuichi Hoshita's eyes, the technique has changed a lot and has become several times more complicated.

Scratching his head, he said helplessly: "Teacher Minato, I'm afraid it will take me some time to understand this."

Minato Namikaze smiled and said: "Sorry, I was inspired at the moment."

"But it doesn't matter, ask me if you don't understand."

"Well, it's too late today, and I have to travel tomorrow. Let's study it when we return to Konoha!"

Hashita nodded, then packed up his things and said goodbye to Minato Namikaze and returned to his room.

Lying on the bed, Shuichi Hoshita's attention was on the entry tree.

Just now, two entries were triggered in a row.

Entry: Seal Expert

Acquisition conditions: Complete the practice of the secret technique [Memory Palace] perfected by Minato Namikaze.

Effect: Sealing and curse talents are improved by 100%, and memory is improved by 100%.

It seems not difficult to obtain it from the conditions, and the effect of the entry is not bad.

In terms of memory, although Shuichi Hoshita claims to have an extraordinary memory, he is still far from being able to remember everything he sees. The "memory palace" technique is very important.

If the memory is improved by 1 times, it may be possible to remember everything he sees.

And this is obviously also conducive to improving insight, enhancing learning, and even the upper limit in actual combat.

"It is indeed necessary to study hard if you have the talent for sealing, after all, it is an omnipotent ability."

However, Shuichi Hoshita is very clear-headed.

Sealing is not a high priority at present.

First of all, swordsmanship and medical ninjutsu are what he currently uses to protect himself and make a living.

Let's look at the second entry.

Entry: Pioneer

Acquisition conditions: Develop at least 5 A-level or above, including but not limited to ninjutsu, sealing, illusion, physical skills and other ninja skills; if someone assists, the person himself must at least play a pioneering and key role.

Effect: "Flash of Inspiration" once a year, lasting 10 minutes. During the time when "Flash of Inspiration" is activated, the understanding is maxed, and the pioneering is maxed.

Hoshita Shuichi stood up suddenly.

Two maxes, full of temptation.

However, 5 A-level or above ninjutsu, sealing techniques, illusion techniques... this is not easy.

Chidori is A-level difficulty, and Rasengan is A-level difficulty.

"Tsk, it's not easy!"

"Even if Minato teacher hasn't developed the Rasengan yet, I want to copy it and register the copyright."

"And Kakashi's Chidori, first of all, I have to master the nature changes of the lightning escape chakra..."

"Well, the wind escape spiral shuriken can also be counted."

Hoshita Shuichi thought: "The key role of pioneering... I wonder if it counts as someone else's assistance in developing the idea I proposed?"

It seems that we need to explore slowly.

Hoshita Shuichi lay down again and slowly fell asleep.

The next day, the group left the daimyo's mansion and returned to Konoha Village at noon.

In the Hokage's office, Sarutobi Hiruzen listened to Minato Namikaze's report, including what Shuichi Hoshita said on the way to the daimyo's mansion.

Of course, the most important thing is the daimyo's recruitment of Shuichi Hoshita and Shuichi Hoshita's response.

After the report, Minato Namikaze said: "Shuichi is a very smart kid, and has a very keen political sense. After listening to the content of the mission, he noticed the differences between the village and the daimyo's mansion."

Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded in agreement, which can be seen from Shuichi Hoshita's words and deeds.

Not only that, but he is also a firm supporter of Hokage.

Sarutobi Hiruzen was also very satisfied with this, and smiled: "Shuichi responded very well. It's rare to be able to respond so flexibly at this age!"

"Let Shuichi take the money. As for the double agent... Minato, what do you think?"

Now Shuichi Hoshita can be said to be Minato Namikaze's subordinate. As Hokage, he also needs to listen to Minato Namikaze's opinion.

Of course, he also has a great intention to cultivate Minato Namikaze.

Tsunade has obviously no intention to succeed the fourth generation. Jiraiya is even more of a prodigal son, and he is still lost in his destiny. He has not returned since the Second Ninja World War. It is said that he has accepted several disciples in the Land of Rain.

And Orochimaru was originally a very suitable candidate, but since the Second Ninja World War, he has changed too much...

Various reasons forced him to think more.

Namikaze Minato had anticipated Sarutobi Hiruzen's inquiry and had a plan in mind. He said: "I think Shuichi can be competent for this task."

"He is a very self-disciplined person with a firm will. He has always adhered to the will of fire and maintained Konoha and the Hokage. Although he is very young, his thinking is already very mature. There is no need to worry about betrayal in the process of being a double agent."

Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded, and then said: "In this case, then you will convey this task to Shuichi, and you are also his contact person!"

Namikaze Minato immediately accepted the order: "Yes!"

There is still one chapter to be published later. I caught a cold after the big cleaning yesterday, and I was confused at night. The second chapter needs to be revised. Wait a minute.
