Placed in front of Mokutsuki were three scrolls. He opened them one by one. The first scroll contained money; Mokutsuki counted it and found a total of 200,000 ryoRyoMokutsuki put the money away. Money is something that is always welcome, no matter what world you’re in.
Ninjas also have high expenses. Whether it’s various ninja tools or the secret medicines needed for training, they all cost a lot.
Next, he opened the second scroll, which contained a C-rank jutsu: Fire Release: Flame Bullet.
Mokutsuki still needed to get this jutsu, but he had already mastered many Fire Release techniques, whether they were wide-ranged or flexible. He didn’t need to waste time practicing this Flame Bullet.
Mokutsuki picked up the last scroll and opened it. This one contained Danzo’s response to his report.
Danzo first praised Mokutsuki for his work, noting how quickly he became an excellent teacher and received praise from the Third Hokage. He was delighted and gave him a reward, hoping Mokutsuki would…
Skipping over Danzo’s manipulative comments, Mokutsuki went straight to Danzo’s request.
“Become Sarutobi Asuma’s tutor, earn his trust, and become someone he respects.” This was Danzo’s response to Mokutsuki’s report.
Mokutsuki put away the jutsu scroll and then burned the other two scrolls.
Even though he wouldn’t practice it, it was still something he got for free from Danzo, so burning it felt like a waste.
“Danzo, that old man, still hasn’t given up on the Hokage position,” Mokutsuki sighed.
It is evident that Danzo had some thoughts about the Third Hokage’s youngest son.
But Mokutsuki didn’t mind. He could easily spare a few hours on the weekend. It wouldn’t affect him much.
“Should I sell the house in the main district?” Mokutsuki thought about something.
Originally, he didn’t live in the sparsely populated southern forest. In fact, he had a house in the main district of Konoha, left to him by his parents.
But to keep his identity hidden, he had a house built in the southern forest.
Though he didn’t live there much, the original owner would return to the central district house each year to clean it.
Mokutsuki thought that since he didn’t live there, he might as well sell it. He remembered the house was in a good location and could be worth a lot. He could use that money to buy secret medicines for training.
Even though he had the system’s help, any personal improvement was valuable.
With that in mind, Mokutsuki set off for the central district of Konoha to check on the house and clean it up for sale.
Following the original owner’s memories, Mokutsuki found the house. As he was about to use the key to enter, he noticed a blonde figure emerging from the neighbouring house.
“Hello, are you the new neighbour?” Minato Namikaze greeted curiously.
He had bought this house a few months ago and it was the first time he saw someone entering the house next door. Minato thought a new neighbour had moved in.
When Mokutsuki turned around, Minato saw the blonde hair and blue eyes and instantly remembered meeting Mokutsuki at the library before.
It wasn’t that Minato had a superhuman memory for every person he met. It was just that, with his own blonde hair and blue eyes and Mokutsuki’s warm smile, Minato felt like he was meeting another version of himself, so it left a deep impression.
“No, this is my home. But due to some reasons, I moved out and rarely comcameck,” Mokutsuki said with a smile.
He decided not to sell the house. Keeping it is a good idea.
He had been wondering how to get close to Minato to learn about sealing techniques, and now they were neighbours. In fact, Minato had moved in after him.
“Minato, I’m here!”
At this moment, a lively female voice called out.
“Hey, Minato, you didn’t tell me you had a brother who looks so much like you.”
Kushina Uzumaki looked at Mokutsuki, who had the same blonde hair and blue eyes and wore a warm smile and couldn’t help but tease.
Although their overall facial features weren’t that similar, the same striking blonde hair and that smile gave Kushina a sense of brotherhood.
“Sorry about that, this is my girlfriend. As you can see, she’s a bit too lively. Please excuse her,” Minato apologised to Mokutsuki with a smile.
“This is my neighbour…” Minato started to say Mokutsuki’s name but realised he didn’t know it yet.
“My name is Mokutsuki Habu,” Mokutsuki introduced himself.
“Hi, I’m Kushina Uzumaki. Your name is quite nice,” Kushina introduced herself, poking her head out from behind Minato, whom she was hugging.
“Hello, I’m Minato Namikaze,” Minato said with a smile, pulling Kushina off of him.
“Thank you, and your red hair is very beautiful too,” Mokutsuki replied as he opened the door.
Kushina’s eyes lit up, and she gave him a thumbs-up, saying, “Nice, you have good taste.”
She felt that Mokutsuki knew how to speak well.
As Mokutsuki opened the door, dust that had settled in the cracks spread out.
He glanced inside. It wasn’t filthy, just a lot of dust from being uninhabited for so long.
“Sorry, but I can’t entertain you right now. I need to clean up,” Mokutsuki said, turning back.
“Then we won’t disturb you,” Minato said, taking Kushina back home.
Mokutsuki watched Kushina’s departing figure and made an assessment.
Name: Kushina Uzumaki
Chakra: 150,000 (???)
Potential: SS
Evaluation: Skilled in sealing techniques, possesses an enormous and special amount of chakra that is unattainable for most people.
Mokutsuki could only feel envious of her chakra amount. The question marks next to the chakra was something he had never seen before.
He thought it must be because Kushina was already the jinchuriki of the Nine-Tails, and the Nine-Tails inside her hadn’t been assessed, hence the question marks.
Kushina’s potential was indeed frightening, the highest potential Mokutsuki had seen so far.
But considering the original story, Mokutsuki guessed that at least one S was due to the Nine-Tails inside her. With Nine-Tails, Kushina’s potential would stay within
Otherwise, with double S potential, Kushina wouldn’t need the Nine-Tails and could dominate on her own. The Third Hokage and Minato both had an S rating.
Mokutsuki used the Multi-Shadow Clone Jutsu to create ten clones and had them start cleaning the house.
Once again, Mokutsuki marvelled at Tobirama’s genius for creating such a convenient jutsu.
After the house was cleaned, Mokutsuki bought some living essentials to put inside.
He didn’t rush to Minato’s house to chat. He planned to stay there occasionally and naturally become friends with Minato.
He opened the window, enjoying the evening breeze, and started refining his training plan for his students.
Might Guy and Obito, who didn’t get the top spots in their grade, need targeted intensive training?
As for Shisui, Mokutsuki planned to improve his chakra control, enhance his current combat abilities, and lay the foundation for future genjutsu learning.
