Chapter 47 Senpai, Your Body is Not Good!

Sōseki looked happy at first, and was about to speak, but he seemed to remember something, and hurriedly said, "Orochimaru-sama, in fact, it wasn't me who stopped that big sister last night!"

"The first thing you do when receiving a reward is to think of others. No wonder Sarutobi-sensei is so optimistic about you." Orochimaru said with a smile, "Don't worry, I have already met Namikaze Minato before you."

Sōseki breathed a sigh of relief, and then murmured to himself, "So that big brother name is Namikaze Minato?"

Orochimaru continued, "Originally, based on your contributions this time, it should be recorded as an S-Rank mission, but for some special reasons, your contributions cannot be promoted or even recorded."

Asuma, who was expecting to make a big splash in front of his classmates, withered instantly and muttered softly, "Why this happen?"

Sōseki's expression remained the same without any change.

Seeing this situation, Orochimaru's evaluation increased slightly.

"As compensation, the village has decided to reward you to get one Ninjutsu or technique of your choice."

Asuma asked excitedly, "Is it possible to choose Forbidden Technique too?"

"Actually, the village does not encourage you to practice Ninjutsu that is too difficult in advance, but..." Orochimaru narrowed his eyes slightly, "Geniuses are not included in here."

"That's great." Asuma cheered at first, but after thinking of some of Sōseki's performance, he lost his confidence and asked, "Can ordinary geniuses do it?"

Seeing Asuma's worries, Orochimaru smiled and said, "Sorry, Sarutobi-sensei thinks that your role in this operation is too small, so he deliberately limits your reward to A-Rank or below Ninjutsu."

"Hmph, that old fogey is really troublesome." Asuma twitched his lips.

In fact, he doesn't think that it is unreasonable. After all, even he himself doesn't feel that he has made any contribution.

'But, it's still very frustrating!'

'One technique?' Sōseki pondered to himself, 'In my plan, Eight Gates Technique and Spirit Transformation Technique are ranked first.'

'However, Eight Gates Technique is just A-Rank after all. It's not worth it to use this opportunity to exchange it. The most important thing is that I have already figured out how to mooch for it.'

'As for Spirit Transformation Technique, the significance if I learned it now is actually not great. After all, my goal to realize the value of this Ninjutsu has not appeared yet!'

Thinking of this, Sōseki asked in a "tangled" tone, "Orochimaru-sama, can you tell me which technique Minato-senpai chose?"

"The one he chose is a Ninjutsu developed by Nidaime Hokage-sama and is a Space–Time Ninjutsu that is very rare in the entire Shinobi World - Flying Thunder God Technique!"

'Sure enough!' Sōseki secretly nodded.

He didn't think about exchanging Flying Thunder God Technique at first, mainly because he was not sure whether he had the talent in this area. If he wasted the opportunity indiscriminately, it would only affect his progress in improving his strength.

But now, since he has one additional chance to choose a Ninjutsu, it naturally makes Sōseki excited.

'The most important thing is that Minato also started from scratch, so I can completely mooch on the other party's experience and perception.'

Thinking of this, Sōseki no longer hesitated, "Orochimaru-sama, then I will choose Flying Thunder God Technique too!"

A hint of surprise flashed in Orochimaru's snake-like pupil, "Are you sure? Sōseki, the Flying Thunder God Technique's training difficulty is one of the highest among all Forbidden Technique!"

"I just think that if two people discuss about it with each other, it would be much easier to succeed than training it alone!" Sōseki said naturally, referring to mooching as mutual progress.

Orochimaru didn't know what Sōseki is thinking and only thought that Sōseki wanted to help Minato. Thinking of this, Orochimaru couldn't help but sighed, 'No wonder Tsunade can cheer up again because of you, you're really gentle!'

... …

A few days later, on the training grounds of the hospital.

Sōseki controlled his rhythm as he jogged slowly.

At this time, a whooshing sound rang.

A green whirlwind galloped past Sōseki like a phantom.

"Thick eyebrows, stop now!"

"I'm letting you to exercise for rehabilitation, not for suicide exercises!"

Two figures followed behind the green phantom and shouting while gasping for breath.

However, the figure that is running like a whirlwind showed no sign of stopping.

"No, this won't work, my lungs are already on fire!"

"Damn, is that little brat really a patient?"

"Yumiko-nee, Misa-nee..."

Hearing this familiar voice, the two nurses who were chasing the green whirlwind finally stopped.

"Sōseki, you came just in time, hurry up and help us stop him!"

"That kid was originally in the hospital because of a muscle strain. Does he not want those legs anymore?"

Hearing the two complaining, Sōseki said with a light chuckle, "Yumiko-nee, Misa-nee, leave it to me. I happen to know that kid over there. He is a new student who just entered the Academy this year."

"Is it really okay?" Yumiko and Misa looked at each other, and decided to believe in Sōseki's abilities, "Sōseki, please take care of him. We have to go back to the room for works now."

After saying that, the two limped and supported each other and left.

"Guy, do you want to compete?" Standing on the edge of the training grounds, Sōseki smiled and threw the bait.

"Competition!" A certain green whirlwind stopped in front of Sōseki with his eyes shining, and then asked excitedly, "Sōseki-senpai, do you know me?"

While talking, he continued to run in place without stopping.

"Of course, you forcibly dragged me, the head of the Psychology Club, to join your youthful club..." Sōseki smiled helplessly, "How could I forget?"

"It's Power of Youth Club!" Guy first corrected Sōseki solemnly, and then asked suspiciously, "Sōseki-senpai, why are you in the hospital? Could it be that you were also beaten?"

"Also?" Sōseki's eyes twitched slightly and coughed, "This is the injury left over from the battle with Kumogakure's spies the other night."

Although the matter of Kushina's identity cannot be disclosed, the spy incident that was picked out separately can still be said.

Otherwise, it would be difficult for him, who has been getting too much attention, to explain his injuries.

He can't really just give Danzō everything!

"Sure enough, you are also beaten! But..." Guy said subconsciously, and then he said enviously, "Catching spies? It's really amazing!"

The corners of Sōseki's mouth twitched slightly upon hearing this, 'Why does this sound a little wrong?'

"Then you..."

"It's different for me. The students who joined my club said they wanted to beat me because they were tricked by me, but they couldn't catch up with me!" Guy raised his chest with great pride, "I ran 20 laps around Konoha, and no one can hit me until I get a muscle strain."

"So, senpai, your body is not good, do you want to join the club to train with me?"
