Chapter 82: Flying Thunder God is... Convenient for Shopping

Sarutobi Hiruzen had no time to accompany them in practicing Ninjutsu.

As for Uchiha Itachi, this child needed to report to his father, Uchiha Fugaku, that he would join the Anbu after the New Year.

The entire Practice Field No. 3 was left with only Hatake Kakashi and Akihara Kagura. Hatake Kakashi leaned against a tree, reading a scroll on the art of the Flying Thunder God technique.

Akihara Kagura symbolically practiced the Wood Human technique for a while and then noticed Hatake Kakashi's brows were deeply furrowed, as if he had encountered some difficulty.

"Why the long face here?"

Akihara Kagura landed beside Hatake Kakashi and asked softly, "Is this technique very difficult? It seems more painful for you than killing."

"Very difficult."

Hatake Kakashi nodded, speaking softly, "Initially, Teacher Minato wanted to teach me this technique, but I always thought the drawbacks of this technique were too obvious, and I lacked the talent and effort..."

The Flying Thunder God technique consumes a lot of chakra.

Hatake Kakashi transplanted a Sharingan but lacked the Uchiha clan's genetics. The Sharingan could not be deactivated, constantly causing his chakra to deplete.

Furthermore, the sacrifices of Uchiha Obito and Nohara Rin were significant reasons Hatake Kakashi did not pursue learning; he lived as if he was a walking corpse.

It wasn't until Uchiha Obito was resurrected and demonstrated powerful space-time dojutsu that Hatake Kakashi wanted to bring Uchiha Obito back to Konoha. To do that, he had to defeat Uchiha Obito, reigniting his interest in learning the Flying Thunder God technique.

"What's so difficult about Ninjutsu?"

Akihara Kagura shrugged, continuing nonchalantly, "Isn't it enough to just form hand seals and know the name and effects of the technique?"

"The Flying Thunder God technique doesn't require hand seals."

Hatake Kakashi sighed deeply, continuing, "It's a seal-less Ninjutsu, only controlled by careful manipulation of one's chakra flow..."

"Seal-less Ninjutsu?"

Akihara Kagura immediately became interested, seemingly asking casually, "How is this technique performed? What are its effects?"

"First, you leave a mark of the Flying Thunder God technique with your chakra at the target location, then activate the technique to teleport to the mark's location instantly..."

Hatake Kakashi didn't mind hiding these from Akihara Kagura. Akihara Kagura was a comrade, and these secrets were not unknown; they were not particularly big secrets in Konoha.

After explaining, Hatake Kakashi rubbed his brows and extended his hand, "Right now, I can't even manage to form the mark of the Flying Thunder God technique"

The art of the Flying Thunder God Technique is indeed difficult.

Actually, the most important part is just the first step, which is to condense a seal of the Flying Thunder God Technique. This seal must contain spatial-temporal coordinates that can be located.

Once the first step is taken, the rest becomes much easier.

"Understood."

Akihara Kagura patted Hatake Kakashi on the shoulder, a tiny leaf seal quietly fell onto Kakashi's shoulder, before he spoke, "Continue your studies here, do not wander off, I will go buy some things and come back."

[System Prompt]: [Ninja Professor]trait activated, host possesses spatial-temporal attributes, chakra level has reached A-grade or above, secretly learning the [Flying Thunder God Technique]which conforms to ninjutsu theory, [Flying Thunder God Technique]learning successful!

[System Prompt]: You have successfully learned the [Flying Thunder God Technique]

[Flying Thunder God Technique (No need for hand seals, uses the seal of the Flying Thunder God Technique for coordinate location, the caster performs instantaneous movement through space-time, moving so fast that enemies cannot perceive it! The caster can transport objects and people with the Flying Thunder God Technique's instantaneity, and long-distance or large-object teleportation will consume more chakra of the caster.)]

Ten minutes later.

While Hatake Kakashi was still looking at the scroll, a figure suddenly appeared beside him, entering his peripheral vision.

"Are you back already?"

Kakashi looked up to see Akihara Kagura holding two cups of pear juice, suddenly realizing there was something odd about Kagura's appearance!

"This Flying Thunder God Technique is quite simple."

Akihara Kagura handed one of the pear juices to Kakashi, casually pointing to a leaf seal on his shoulder, explaining, "First, create a seal like this, then run to a far place, and just like that, teleport back. It does consume some chakra, but it's indeed very convenient for traveling to buy things"

The Flying Thunder God Technique is indeed quite convenient.

After learning this technique, there's no need to hide it as a trump card, as the Flying Thunder God Technique can bring great convenience to life in the future, and Akihara Kagura has plenty of trump cards already.

"???"

Kakashi felt completely bewildered.

Was this kid's learning method too abstract? He just briefly introduced the theory of the Flying Thunder God Technique, how could he have learned it just like that?

Kakashi held the Flying Thunder God Technique study notes left by his teacher, still clueless about how to begin with the first step of condensing the Flying Thunder God seal!

Moreover, this technique wasn't meant to make shopping more convenient!

"First, you start by condensing a seal like this"

Akihara Kagura seemed to understand Hatake Kakashi's confusion and raised his hand to form a leaf symbol, demonstrating it to Hatake Kakashi.

"Wait a moment"

Hatake Kakashi rubbed his forehead and voiced his doubt: "This symbol... how exactly is it formed?"

"With chakra"

"No"

Hatake Kakashi felt he wasn't making himself clear and further inquired: "How do you condense the spatial-temporal coordinates within the symbol?"

"What are spatial-temporal coordinates?"

A hint of confusion momentarily flickered through Akihara Kagura's eyes.

"Really"

Hatake Kakashi let out a sigh of resignation, feeling a bit of a headache: "You can learn the Flying Thunder God Technique without understanding what spatial-temporal coordinates mean?"

"Just like that."

Akihara Kagura continued demonstrating, hoping earnestly that Hatake Kakashi would understand his point: "As long as I create a symbol that allows me to teleport to it, even sensing this symbol feels like my body is being summoned by a force..."

Hatake Kakashi's headache worsened: "But if the symbol does not contain spatial-temporal coordinates, how can it be used for teleportation's positioning?"

Hatake Kakashi felt something was wrong with the world, being the one who doesn't know the Flying Thunder God Technique, yet here he was, trying hard to teach someone who had learned it in a blink of an eye to understand the technique.

Hatake Kakashi could only use the simplest technique as an example: "Like the Summoning Technique's contract seal, it requires forming seals in the order of [Boar-Dog-Bird-Monkey-Ram] to release a summoning circle, using this circle as the spatial-temporal coordinates for the arrival of the summoned creature... Summoning?"

When Hatake Kakashi reached this point, he suddenly understood something, and his eyes lit up: "Essentially, the summoning circle of the Summoning Technique and the symbol of the Flying Thunder God Technique both contain spatial-temporal coordinates. I need to thoroughly study the Summoning Technique first"

"..."

Akihara Kagura nodded reluctantly, addressing Hatake Kakashi's final concern: "However, this technique consumes a significant amount of chakra and initially feels a bit troublesome to use, requiring precise sensing of the symbol's location. Fortunately, my sensing ability is fairly decent"
