Part Time Employee in Konoha

Chapter 83: Akihara Kagura Current Status

Akihara Kagura did his best.

If Hatake Kakashi could learn the Flying Thunder God Technique, it would not only help Kakashi, his current boss with whom he has a decent relationship, but also pose a threat to another boss, Uchiha Obito, with whom his relationship is not so good and who does not value him much...

It was unexpected...

He had unexpected gains from teaching the key points to Hatake Kakashi.

[System Prompt]:[Ninja Professor]trait activated, the host possesses space-time attribute chakra with a quantity above C-grade, is passively learning [Summoning Jutsu] which aligns with ninja theory, [Summoning Jutsu] successfully learned!

[System Prompt]: You have successfully learned [Summoning Jutsu]

[Summoning Jutsu (Through the seals of Boar-Dog-Bird-Monkey-Ram, summons a summoning beast from an unknown place to join the battle. The stronger the summoned beast, the more chakra is required. Note: A summoning contract must be signed with the summoning beast, which has its own will. The beast may not fully obey the summoner's commands, and may even pose a danger to the summoner.)]

This technique...

Akihara Kagura really didn't intend to learn it secretly.

It was Hatake Kakashi who spoke of it voluntarily, and he learned it passively.

Hatake Kakashi was in a great mood, perhaps because Akihara Kagura helped him find a direction to learn the Flying Thunder God Technique, and he brought up the technique he planned to teach to Akihara Kagura.

"My techniques mostly require hand seals..."

Hatake Kakashi said this with a bit of embarrassment: "The only technique that might suit you is one considered forbidden in the village..."

"Which technique?"

Akihara Kagura immediately became curious.

"Multi-Shadow Clone Jutsu."

Hatake Kakashi mentioned a very familiar technique name: "It is a highly dangerous forbidden jutsu. During your rest, I proposed to the Hokage that your chakra is vast enough to use this technique."

The Konoha has strict restrictions on ninja techniques and forbidden jutsus.

For example, the Flying Thunder God Technique is an S-grade technique but is not listed as a forbidden jutsu; like the Multi-Shadow Clone Jutsu, an A-grade ninja technique, it is listed as forbidden due to its extreme danger.

If one wishes to learn or teach a forbidden jutsu to someone, Hokage's permission is required to prevent the jutsu from endangering the ninja's life.

"This technique only requires the Rat seal"

Hatake Kakashi raised his finger, forming the Rat seal, and whispered, "Multi-Shadow Clone Jutsu!"

A group of Hatake Kakashi's clones instantly appeared around him!

This technique implies that Hatake Kakashi has a substantial amount of chakra and precise control over the distribution of his chakra!

"Did you learn it?"

A group of Hatake Kakashis surrounded Akihara Kagura, posing as if you must have learned it by now.

"I don't know if I've learned it or not"

Akihara Kagura observed the technique he had just learned with some helplessness.

[System Prompt]: [Ninja Professor] trait activated, the host's chakra level has reached A grade or above, passively learning the [Multi-Shadow Clone Jutsu] that conforms to the theory of ninjutsu, [Multi-Shadow Clone Jutsu] successfully learned!

[System Prompt]: You have successfully learned the [Multi-Shadow Clone Jutsu].

[System Prompt]: Detection of the Wood Release Kekkei Genkai within the host, [Multi-Shadow Clone Jutsu] evolved into [Wood Release: Multi-Wood Clone Jutsu].

[Wood Release: Multi-Wood Clone Jutsu (By forming the Rin seal, dividing the chakra within the body, and releasing multiple wood clones indistinguishable from the real thing, the wood clones can attack freely. Since the Wood Release chakra can serve as a source of life, the wood clones have stronger defenses than shadow clones, and when a wood clone is destroyed, it can transform into vines to entangle the enemy.)]

"Wood Release: Multi-Wood Clone Jutsu!"

Akihara Kagura quickly formed hand seals with his fingers!

Wood carvings rapidly emerged behind Akihara Kagura, slowly reviving into wood clones.

"One, two, three..."

Akihara Kagura's expression was somewhat strange.

There were only three wood clones, but their chakra was abundant, making each of them a formidable opponent even on their own!

...

Hatake Kakashi slowly nodded and praised, "It's okay, with more practice in the future, with your chakra, you'll definitely be able to create more wood clones."

Hatake Kakashi pondered for a moment, then mentioned the true purpose of teaching this technique to Akihara Kagura, "This technique will make it easier for you to carry out reconnaissance missions, of course, not in the unique way we conduct reconnaissance in the Mist Village"

"From the results, we indeed completed the reconnaissance mission, but your method of gathering intelligence was too unique. You did well, but don't do it again next time."

...

Akihara Kagura was noncommittal about this.

However, at this moment, he received a notification sound.

[System Prompt]: [Assisting Hatake Kakashi in investigating the Mist Village's intelligence, completed, reward: Earth Release: Earth-Style Wall.]

[Earth Release: Earth-Style Wall (By forming the SerpentBoarDog hand seals, chakra is infused into the ground, raising a defensive earth wall. Note: The technique is from Hatake Kakashi, and one can freely create desired statues on the defensive earth wall.)]

"Let's go."

Hatake Kakashi packed up his belongings and said, "That's about it for today. Treat me to a bowl of ramen."

...

Akihara Kagura really couldn't refuse.

Just from Hatake Kakashi alone, through stealth learning, passive learning, being taught, and mission rewards, Akihara Kagura obtained four techniques, even one of them being the highly useful Flying Thunder God Technique.

It has to be said.

If one wants to work, it's still necessary to enter an official ninja organization.

Akihara Kagura calculated the gains he had made during his time in Konoha, and found them to be far more than what he had acquired during the years he spent with Orochimaru.

[Superiors: Orochimaru, Shimura Danzo, Sarutobi Hiruzen, Hatake Kakashi, Uchiha Obito]

[Orochimaru's Task]: [Go to Konoha to find Orochimaru's ally Shimura Danzo, learn Wood Release techniques, and monitor the alliance between Orochimaru and Shimura Danzo. Uncompleted.]

[Orochimaru's Task]: [Find an opportunity to bring Uchiha Itachi to Orochimaru. Uncompleted.]

[Sarutobi Hiruzen's Task]: [Assist Hatake Kakashi in gathering intelligence on the Konoha rogue ninja, Uchiha Obito. Uncompleted.]

[Shimura Danzo's Task]: [Assist Hatake Kakashi in investigating Uchiha Obito and report the findings to Shimura Danzo. Uncompleted.]

[Shimura Danzo's Task]: [Invite Hatake Kakashi to join the Root. Uncompleted.]

Akihara Kagura rather likes all these superiors.

The welcome packages from these superiors are excellent, though inevitably there are some disappointments with the tasks, such as Sarutobi Hiruzen not being his direct superior, making the tasks he assigns somewhat vague and even consistently failing to provide closure; the tasks assigned by Shimura Danzo and Sarutobi Hiruzen are strikingly similar, only requiring separate reports to them.

Of course.

Orochimaru does not count.

This superior is truly difficult to contact.

As for Uchiha Obito, this superior has yet to reestablish contact with him, leaving it unclear whether it's due to inconvenience or still not taking his subordinate seriously.

Perhaps...

This superior also busy?

After all, Konoha has already issued a wanted notice for Uchiha Obito, and it's likely the entire shinobi world is aware of Uchiha Obito's preference for wearing masks. The Mist Village has also been trying to locate Uchiha Obito, so it's likely he doesn't have much free time.

Compared to that, Hatake Kakashi is relatively free.

Since the Fourth Mizukage, Karatachi Yagura, had the most interactions with Uchiha Obito, Hatake Kakashi occasionally takes Akihara Kagura to visit Yagura, hoping the Mizukage might recall something more, using any overlooked clues to track down Uchiha Obito's whereabouts.

The Fourth Mizukage, Yagura, couldn't provide much information, because he was controlled by Uchiha Obito's genjutsu during their encounter. The only impression he had was that there seemed to be two people with Uchiha Obito.

One man with orange hair.

One woman with light purple hair.
