nMore than a half month has passed away.

nNaito finally mastered the first stage of the Lightning Armor Technique, and if he wanted to go any further, he would need to start training on the second stage.

nAfter he mastered the first stage, he got a full control on the form of the first stage, he no longer has this blue aura on his body anymore.

nNaito estimates that when he reaches the second stage, he wouldn’t have the same form, maybe he will have the same aura as the third and fourth Raikage had when they used this technique.

nWhen he mastered the first stage, Naito’s body got stronger, his bones and muscles gained some enhancement, his body gradually matured, and his skin gained a healthy bronze color.

nNaito is only ten years old, but he looks already like a fourteen o fifteen years old.

nIt’s not only because the people in Naruto world look older then they should be, it also due to his physical training.

nThe growth of his body increased the enhancement of the Reverse Hachimon Tonkou too.

nOriginally if he wants to open the next gate, the Fourth Gate, he will need to train his body for more than a year the reach its standards.

nBut, joining this war didn’t leave him anytime to train!

nIt wasn’t only because of the war, he also needed to teach Konan and Yahiko for some time too, he also had to get out from time to time to hunt and scout some Shinobis.

nIf this continues he will need from three to five years to open the next gate.

nBut practicing the first stage of the Lightning Armor technique helped to reduce this process.

nIt’s been a few months since he entered the Rain Village, practicing this technique every day is equivalent to two days of practicing physical exercises!

nNaito predicted that he will only need half of the time to reach the next gate standards.

nHowever, he needs to master the abilities of his Kusanagi sword which is not that easy.

nAfter he shook his head, Naito thought about the remaining Kusanagi swords, they may be in the hand of the Sand Village, he needed to target those guys too, anyway, if any of those swords approached him to a certain range around him, he will sense it.

nIf he didn’t find it in the battlefield, Naito will need to sneak to the Sand Village at the time of the war or after.

nIn addition, Naito needs to get his hand on the secrets of the second stage of the Lightning Armor technique too so he will need to go to the Cloud Village too.

n“Huuuh!”

nNaito exhaled, then he stood up, and the blue aura around his body disappeared.

nHe walked out of the room and went to see Konan and Yahiko’s training.

nKoana and Yahiko were about the same age as Naito, so their practice progress was so fast too.

nIn this world, the younger you are the faster you learn.

nAnd this age is the best to learn controlling Chakra.

nTherefore, their current amount of Chakra was almost close to the level of Chunins, and Konan’s Paper Ninjutsu was finally developed.

nAfter they learned Ninjutsu, they were already strong, it’s unlikely for them to be threatened by ordinary people.

nNaito nodded, but he wasn’t that satisfied.

nAt the same time, Naito was feeling a little bit helpless, Naito was looking for Nagato everywhere but he couldn’t find him.

nNagato seems to be completely missing!

nThis is made Naito really confused.

nAccording to the usual schedule, Naito went out again to a nearby town.

nThe Rain Village is not that big, and there aren’t so many towns.

nSo in almost every town, there will be some scout Ninjas from Konoha.

nIt’s worth mentioning that the news of Naito killing Kinjin went all the way back to the village, everyone got shocked by this incredible news, and after a long silence, they asked if he needed anything.

n

n

nOf course, what Naito really needed was the secrets of the second stage of the Lightning Armor technique, however, there wasn’t any replay from Sarutobi, it seems like they couldn’t grab him this wish.

nAfter he went to that town, Naito managed to scout some ninjas from the Rocks, then he killed them after he got the information.

nAfter that, Naito went to find the Ninja who is responsible for delivering the information.

nThere is a special way of delivering information on the battlefield, and the Anbu’s way is more special.

nThey were using the oldest way in the book.

nThe scroll must be opened in a special way, otherwise, the scroll will destroy itself, and all the contents will be erased.

nThis method is absolutely confidential.

nNaito didn’t receive any information from Konoha for a long time, most of the time he was the one who was sending information.

nFinally, he received a scroll from Konoha.

nAfter he took a corner Naito cracked the special seal, then took a glance at its content.

nBut from one glance, Naito suddenly sent a fierce aura around him.

nThis action almost exposed his identity, but he didn’t care.

nHe couldn’t control himself, he almost crushed the scroll in his hand.

nThe information in the scroll was: Tsunade and her Team has been ambushed by the Rock Shinobis, she got forced into the area of the enemies, the situation is critical, and Naito needs to go immediately and rescue her.

nTsunade’s strength is at the same level as an elite Jonin, or even as an Anbu.

nYet the word they used here is not “Support”, but “Rescue”!

nThere’s is a big difference between these two words!

nThis shows that the situation Tsunade has encountered is a real crisis, otherwise, they wouldn’t use such a word.

nAfter taking a deep breath, Naito destroyed the scroll then left the place immediately.

nWhen Tsunade in such a bad situation, Naito cannot ignore it, the story is already changing too much, and Naito cannot be sure that she will be okay.

nSo he needed to go.

nThe scrolls had a specific information about the location, and the route was on the same way where Yahiko and Konan staying.

nTherefore, Naito decided to speak with them first.

nIf the route was in the opposite direction, Naito wouldn’t lose time to inform them, and he would go to the location directly.

nBut because he didn’t want to lose any time Naito used his full speed and returned to the camp.

nKonan and Yahiko were still practicing.

nNaito went there and told them to keep their head low for the time been, he asked them to leave the place and head toward the nearest town.

nThey should be safe there.
