Chapter 60 - Manipulating Shurikens

Kiyoshi took it and saw that it was about the Art of Manipulating Shuriken.

Although it's called shuriken throwing technique, this technique is often used to throw kunais as well.

Tie a highly durable and elastic special rubber rope or steel wire around the kunai.

Then, shoot the kunai to attack the target, and finally retrieve the kunai.

Learning this will also allow the thrown shuriken to make turns in the air.

"Yakumi is skilled in this, you can go to him if you don't understand."

"Yakumi-senpai? I will." Kiyoshi nodded.

Yakumi was the one who had brought him from the Land of Lightning to Konoha.

"Go, young man. It's not good to stay with someone like me who is half buried in the ground." Setsuna waved his hand.

Kiyoshi respectfully nodded and walked out, accompanied by Tekka.

"Elder Setsuna thinks highly of you, kid." Tekka said enviously.

When he had first met Elder Setsuna, he didn't have anything.

"Is that so?"

Kiyoshi smiled slightly.

To be honest, the only people who can save the Uchiha clan are pure conservative or pure radicals.

Fugaku, a conservative, was preparing for an armed coup.

But when it really came time for the coup, he turned back into a conservative.

This kind of back-and-forth jumping is one of the reasons for the Uchiha's destruction.

But now, before he becomes strong, it's better to lay low.

Being too flamboyant within the Uchiha clan will inevitably attract the attention of Konoha's higher-ups.

After all, Konoha's Anbu have been monitoring the Uchiha all along.

The most ironic thing is that one of Itachi's daily tasks after joining the Anbu was to monitor his colleagues.

And most of the Uchiha settlement is covered within the surveillance range.

The entire Uchiha settlement has been infiltrated, and no Uchiha knew this news except for Itachi.

And Itachi did not reveal any of this to the Uchiha, but monitored according to Konoha's orders.

On the surface, it was a decision made by Konoha's higher-ups after the Nine-Tails Rebellion.

As for whether Danzo and others had previously monitored the Uchiha to some extent?

This was unknown.

Kiyoshi didn't want to take a gamble. He needs more time to grow stronger.

With every day that passes, Kiyoshi can become a little stronger than the day before, until he can control his own destiny.

Kiyoshi chatted with Tekka for a few words, and when they reached a fork in the road, they went home separately.

"I wonder if I can get any traits."

After simply cooking a few dishes and eating, Kiyoshi began to continue his training.

The special rubber rope and steel wire for the Art of Manipulating Shuriken need to be bought later.

Kiyoshi found an ordinary rope to make do with it for now.

Sizzle!

The sound of a kunai cutting through the air rang out in the courtyard one after another, until very late at night.

"Kiyoshi actually graduated?"

Samodo put down the information handed up by his subordinate and pondered, stroking his chin.

As early as the second day after Kiyoshi had graduated, their excellent undercover agent gad collected the information.

It was just too bizarre, so Samodo had sent several more people to investigate.

However, all the information during this period was the same as the first piece of information.

Kiyoshi had indeed graduated.

Sachuya saw Samodo's tightly furrowed brows, so he said, "This may not be a bad thing for Kumogakure, it just shows his value."

"That makes sense."

Samodo exhaled a breath of turbid air.

The more talented Kiyoshi is, the more potential his seed has accordingly.

If he can awaken the Sharingan in both eyes later, he can perfectly pass on his Kekkei genkai.

Some mixed-blood defective products do not perfectly inherit the power of the Kekkei genkai.

The result is that they are not as good as pure-blooded Kekkei genkai users.

The key is that Kiyoshi has graduated so quickly, completely disrupting their plan.

Originally, they wanted to take their time and do it slowly.

They still have a chance before the Third Great Ninja War really occurs.

Who knew that Kiyoshi would graduate in the blink of an eye?

"Has any information been sent from the village?" Samodo asked.

Because the undercover agents are in Konoha are far away from Kumogakure, communication is not convenient, and there is a delay.

It is said that the village is already researching ninjutsu or technology to solve this problem.

"Lord Raikage has issued another order, raising Kiyoshi's importance rank."

Sachiya handed a new piece of information to Samodo.

After reading it, Samodo rubbed his wrinkled brows.

Samodo said, "Ninja school has already started the holiday, and after the holiday ends, it will be the second enrollment. Tell Samui to hurry up and let her younger brother adapt to Konoha and enroll as soon as possible."

"Yes."

"In addition, Kiyoshi hasn't come here recently. Tell Samui to increase the efforts to win over Kiyoshi, and let her visit Kiyoshi at his home."

In the blink of an eye, another period of time passed, and the climate in Konoha seems to be getting colder.

Shinku, who had returned from completing a mission, put down his sword behind his back.

He habitually glanced at his wife's photo.

His wife had passed away when Kurenai was very young, and Kurenai was basically raised by him alone.

"Father, you're back."

Kurenai was wearing tight-fitting thermal pants, which looked a little thin, and a slightly heavy coat on her upper body, with a sweater inside.

She had just washed her face and was wiping it with a handkerchief.

"Aren't you cold?"

Shinku scanned his daughter's clothes.

His face was thin, his bones were prominent, and he exuded a stern and upright temperament.

He had just seen the Hokage's son, Asuma, near his home.

As Kurenai's father, he knew that his daughter was on a team with Asuma and an Uchiha.

Shinku had not met that Uchiha, but he had heard that he had come from the distant Land of Lightning.

He didn't know if he was all black or all white.

(T/N: It don't matter if you are black or white~)

"I... I'm wearing two layers inside." Kurenai said in a low voice.

"Are you going out?"

Shinku, who had just completed a long-term mission, found that his daughter seemed to have grown a little taller.

Children at this age seem to develop very quickly.

"Yes, I have an appointment with a friend." Kurenai nodded and said.

Shinku looked at his daughter, his eyes seemed a little dazed.

He felt that the Kurenai in front of him actually looked a bit like his wife when she was young.

He vaguely remembered that she looked like this back then.

However, Kurenai's face lacked some of the maturity and tenacity of that time, and she looked more childish.

Shinku asked, "Are you going to see Asuma?"

"No, it's Kiyoshi."

Kurenai shook her head, and her eyes flickered.

She secretly observed her father's expression.

The Uchiha clan's situation in the village is quite delicate, and her father inevitably has some concerns.

And Kiyoshi comes from the Land of Lightning, and his identity, background, and other aspects are subtly different from those of Konoha's ninjas.

Kurenai didn't know how her father would react to her making an Uchiha friend.
