What is Chiyama Gekko best at?

  It's not fighting, nor scientific research, but being a spy or a lurker.

  With Touton and the Flying Thunder God Technique, he stands at the pinnacle of espionage.

  Even Orochimaru has to admit this. Otherwise, he wouldn't have had his scientific research results plundered by his own disciple right under his nose.

  Although they were just some potions, they were painstakingly developed by him.

  Thinking of this, Orochimaru couldn't help but feel pained.

  "Chiyama-kun, what you said is quite right. Although you can't help me with scientific research experiments."

  "But you still have great uses. If I ask you to go to other ninja vilges and get me some rare materials or jutsu, would you be willing?"

  Chiyama Gekko: I just said it casually. Why did you take it seriously?

  But then again, it's not impossible. After all, if he goes, he can also grab some more things by the way.

  "Sure! I'm duty-bound for your research, master!"

  "Speak up, master. Do you want the pipe of the Third Hokage or the crystal ball he uses for peeping? I'll get them back for you right away!"

  Orochimaru: What the hell! Are you picking a fight with the Third Hokage? What's the use of a pipe and a crystal ball???"

  Forget it. It's good that he has this intention. He still knows the current situation of several ninja vilges. Even he doesn't want to go out at this time.

  After all, it's a situation where even the rustling of leaves makes one nervous.

  "Not for now. You go back and be a teacher. If I need you, I'll let you know."

  "Oh, take this. It's the same as the previous two Scrolls. This Scroll records some basic Sealing Jutsu."

  "It'll be beneficial for you to learn it."

  I have to say, Orochimaru before turning bad is still a nice guy.

  Looking at the Scroll with the character "seal" written on it, Chiyama Gekko felt a little touched.

  It's a pity that he has already swindled the Sealing Jutsu from Jiraiya. It's probably simir to what Orochimaru gave.

  Forget it. Take it. After all, it's a gift from Orochimaru.

  "Alright, master. Then I'll take my leave!"

  He bowed, and instantly activated the Flying Thunder God Technique.

  The next second, Chiyama Gekko appeared on the rooftop of the ninja academy.

  Looking at the spell he marked on the rooftop, he smiled slightly.

  "I've really made a profit these three months."

  He jumped off the rooftop. Time for css.

  During this period, all ninja vilges seemed to have entered a hibernation period.

  There was no fighting and no contact.

  But everyone knew that this was just the calm before the storm.

  Konoha Vilge was also preparing in full swing.

  All the ninjas outside were recalled, and at the same time, the missions outside the vilge were significantly reduced.

  Suddenly, the income of ninjas in the vilge dropped significantly.

  The ordinary ninjas were the most affected. They originally relied on mission rewards to make a living.

  In the Konoha mission hall.

  "Damn it. There are fewer and fewer missions tely."

  "If this goes on, my son and I will starve!"

  Two ninjas both wearing green tight-fitting clothes looked at the mission board and couldn't help compining.

  His words made many ninjas around him nod in approval.

  "Yeah, the number of missions tely has been pathetically few."

  "Sigh, and apart from within our Land of Fire, there are hardly any missions to other nds."

  Of course, there were also quite a few insiders who chimed in to console them:

  "There's no helping it. The three ninja vilges around us have been acting strange tely."

  "Weren't there ninja from Cloud Hidden Vilge in the Land of Hot Water some time ago? I heard that several of our Anbu members lost their lives."

  For a moment, the rge mission hall completely transformed into a teahouse, filled with the sounds of chatting and compints.

  Hokage Building.

  Hiruzen Sarutobi watched the scene in front of him through the crystal ball, his brows furrowed tightly.

  "Sigh, the hearts of the people have been a bit restless tely."

  Behind him were sitting several old-timers from Konoha Vilge.

  They were: Genyan Mitokado, Koharu Utatane, and the future 5.5th Hokage - Danzō Shimura.

  "There's no way around it. The signs of war are getting stronger. If we send them out on missions at this time and they get picked off one by one, it will be a blow to the overall Strength of the vilge."

  Genyan Mitokado stated his thoughts with a solemn expression.

  His words made Koharu Utatane nod.

  "Humph, Hiruzen, if you ask me, we should have started preparing earlier."

  "War is clearly on the verge of breaking out. Whether it's the Uchiha or the Hyuga, we should have made them start getting ready earlier."

  Tanzō snorted. His rant was simple and straightforward, yet there was some truth to it.

  Both the Uchiha and the Hyuga produced many powerful individuals, and with their eye powers, they were more suitable for guard duty than many other ninjas.

  Hiruzen Sarutobi took a puff of his cigarette and remained silent.

  In his heart, he was actually thinking about whether he should start making preparations.

  However, Konoha had always been in a situation where it was surrounded by enemies on all sides. If they took the initiative to move first, something unexpected might happen.

  "What are you hesitating about, Hiruzen? If you're not at ease."

  "Send the Anbu out to gather intelligence one more time."

  "We don't need to focus on Cloud Hidden Vilge. Just target Iwagakure and Sunagakure."

  "Don't we have the right person for the job? Didn't Sakumo Hatake volunteer to go to Sunagakure?"

  Tanzō's expression didn't change at all, as if sending someone to another country to gather intelligence was completely without danger.

  But these words of his got the approval of Genyan Mitokado and Koharu Utatane.

  "Indeed, intelligence is of the utmost importance at the beginning of a war."

  "If Minato wants to go, then let him go."

  "If I'm not mistaken, he also invited Chiyama Gekko from the Gekko cn, right?"

  Hearing the name Chiyama Gekko, a faint glint fshed in Tanzō's eyes.

  "With Touton and the Flying Thunder God Technique, he's perfect for an intelligence mission."

  "And where on earth did he learn the Flying Thunder God Technique? That's also a question."

  "For now, we won't pursue the matter of him learning it without permission, but he should do his part for the vilge."

  With just a few words, Tanzō pushed Chiyama Gekko into the spotlight.

  At this, Hiruzen Sarutobi's expression couldn't help but turn grim.

  How could he not understand what Tanzō meant? Was he trying to make Chiyama Gekko pay for his mistakes?

  Humph, don't they know that Chiyama Gekkō is the one he has his eye on?

  That's his grand - apprentice!

  "The Gekko cn is short of talented people. Unless it's absolutely necessary, we don't need Chiyama Gekkō to take action."

  Hiruzen Sarutobi's words instantly irked the three of them.

  "Isn't this an absolute necessity already?"

  "Then when will it be? Do we have to wait until other ninja vilges come pounding on our door?"

  Facing Tanzō's relentless pressure, Hiruzen Sarutobi showed a hint of anger on his face.

  "Humph, Tanzō, I'm the Hokage."

  "Minato's mission will start ter, but you don't need to worry about the candidate!"

  Amidst Hiruzen Sarutobi's angry roar, this meeting ended unhappily.

  But Minato's mission was about to be put on the agenda soon.
