Chapter 215 Flying Thunder Formation Technique
Chapter 215 Flying Thunder Formation Technique
Konoha Jonin Team Office.
Minato Namikaze, the newly appointed leader of the Jonin team, is looking at a report.
Having trained in the police department, he found these paperwork tasks quite easy, and to be honest, Minato found the job rather easy.
Compared to his busy work in the police department, he now only needs to be responsible for some general directions of the Jonin class, and the rest is to handle the more difficult tasks assigned by the village. However, there are not many tricky missions that require him to lead a team after the war.
"Knock knock knock".
A light, rhythmic knocking sounded, and then the door was pushed open a crack.
"Squad Leader Shuimen, busy?"
Nishikawa Tetsu poked half his head in, wearing the kind of bright smile that made Minato immediately sense that something terrible was about to happen.
"Che?"
Minato put down his pen, rubbed his temples, and smiled helplessly, "You're the Vice Minister of Finance now, a very busy man! How come you have time to visit me? Don't you need to go to the capital to have tea with the daimyo?"
"You're so well-informed?" Nishikawa Tetsu was somewhat surprised. It seemed that Minato had already entered the ranks of the village's high-ranking officials, or at least had one foot in the door.
If such a decision can be known in advance, then the person directly involved only finds out about it shortly afterward.
"That's exactly what we were about to do."
He pushed open the door and entered, unceremoniously pulling out a chair to sit opposite Minato. He casually grabbed a piece of candy from Minato's table, unwrapped it, and popped it into his mouth. It was a candy that Minato had prepared for Kana and Shizune, as Kushina would sometimes bring them to visit Minato.
"You know how far the capital is from Konoha. It would take several days to travel by carriage, and my bones would be about to fall apart. Besides, if we encountered any ignorant bandits on the way, I would have to fight them, which would be so undignified."
"So?" Minato had a bad feeling.
"Therefore, I need a mode of transportation that is fast, safe, and prestigious."
Nishikawa Tetsu leaned forward, his eyes shining as he stared at Minato.
"Minato, can you give me a ride? Just with that 'whoosh' sound."
Minato was stunned for a moment, then laughed and cried at the same time: "Flying Thunder God Technique? Did you use my space-time ninjutsu as a means of transportation?"
"Oh, don't be so stingy."
Nishikawa Tetsu waved his hand confidently and began his deceptive tactics:
"Think about it, what am I going to the capital for? To make money, to help the village with its development! Every minute I waste on the road is a waste of Konoha's economy!"
"Assuming it takes me three days by horse-drawn carriage, how many contracts can I negotiate in those three days? How much tax revenue can I bring to the village? It must be at least several hundred million, right?"
Nishikawa Tetsu slapped his thigh in anguish: "Minato, can you bear to watch the village lose hundreds of millions because of traffic congestion?"
"this……"
Watergate's logic is very clear; he fully understands that Watergate is using a fallacy to change the subject, but since his friend has said so, he really feels embarrassed to refuse.
"Furthermore, I have already left the coordinates of your Flying Thunder God Technique at the office in the capital."
Nishikawa Tetsuya revealed his true intentions, pulling out a work schedule from his pocket.
"This is my schedule for next month. I'll need to travel back and forth about every three days. See, I've planned it all out for you. These time periods are perfect for your rest, so it won't interfere with your work at all."
Minato stared at the densely packed schedule, his lips twitching wildly.
"Che... I'm the Jonin team leader, not your personal driver..."
Don't rush to refuse.
Seeing that Minato was still resisting, Nishikawa Tetsu immediately put forward a second plan.
"I know you're busy, and it's a bit of a waste for a dignified yellow flash to be my driver all day. So, I've also prepared a Plan B for you."
"Plan B?"
"That's right."
Nishikawa Toru took a scroll out of his briefcase and spread it out in front of Minato.
"The Concept of the Flying Thunder Formation Technique"
Minato's eyes narrowed, and his ninja instincts instantly put him into study mode.
"The Flying Thunder God Technique is difficult to learn because it requires extremely high levels of neural reaction speed and spatial and temporal perception from the user."
Nishikawa Tetsu pointed to the diagram of the technique on the scroll and said in a serious tone:
"But what if we break this technique down?"
"If one person can't do it, can three people do it? We'll select three talented ninjas and have them take on the three steps of coordinate positioning, chakra transfer, and spatial jump, respectively."
"As long as they coordinate well, although they can't move instantly or fight alone like you, they're more than capable of pinpointing supplies or personnel!"
Looking at the scroll, Minato had to admit that the idea was indeed good. He had thought about it before, but not in such detail.
As the user of the Flying Thunder God Technique, he knew better than anyone how difficult it was. Over the years, apart from the Second Hokage and himself, no third person in Konoha had mastered it.
However, Nishikawa Tetsu's concept of "array formation" does indeed significantly lower the learning threshold in theory.
"If we follow your plan and undergo special training, it might actually work."
Minato muttered to himself.
"That's more like it!"
Nishikawa Tetsu snapped his fingers.
"Pick a few talented people. Once you've trained them, not only will you be freed from your driver job, but we can also make a big profit!"
"A big deal?" Minato looked up warily.
"certainly!"
Nishikawa Tetsu stood up and made a huge circle in the air with his hands.
"Think about it, what's the scarcest thing in this world? Time! Especially for those famous people, nobles, and wealthy merchants, time is money, it's life!"
"We could easily launch a high-end service – [Konoha Express Delivery]."
Nishikawa Tetsuya's face revealed a shrewd businessman's smile:
"For example, what if the daimyo of the Land of Fire suddenly wants to eat Ichiraku Ramen from Konoha? Before, that was just a dream, but now, as long as you're willing to spend the money, a steaming bowl of noodles will be delivered to your lips in a flash!"
"For example, if a wealthy businessman falls seriously ill and needs medical treatment, as long as he purchases our service, our Flying Thunder Array team can instantly send a doctor to him."
"Five million taels for one teleportation, is that too much to ask?"
"This is life-saving speed, a symbol of status!"
Minato was stunned, and the pen in his hand fell onto the table.
Using the Flying Thunder God... as a means of transportation?
They deliver food? They even provide emergency medical services?
"This...this isn't quite right, is it?" Minato said, somewhat amused and exasperated. "The Second Hokage didn't create this technique for this purpose..."
"I'm doing this for development, development is for making money, and making money is for better protecting Konoha."
Nishikawa Tetsu showed no remorse, but instead looked completely reverent.
"Minato, this is called technology transfer, military-to-civilian conversion. With this money, we can train more ninjas and build a better Konoha. Isn't this the best tribute to the Second Hokage?"
"and……"
Nishikawa Tetsu leaned closer to Minato and lowered his voice:
"Imagine if you become Hokage and are busy to death every day, and Kushina suddenly wants to go to the beach to watch the sunset, or wants to eat some local specialties from the neighboring area."
"If you're too busy to take her with you, you can easily do it using the Flying Thunder God Formation."
"Does Kushina's sense of happiness instantly surge?"
Minato pictured Kushina's happy smile in his mind, and he also realized that what Tetsu said made sense.
"Cough cough..."
Minato coughed twice, his fist clenched near his mouth, his eyes darting around.
"I think... the Flying Thunder Formation technique does indeed have high strategic value and is worth promoting."
"As for sending you to the capital..."
Minato sighed helplessly, stood up, and picked up his coat from the hanger.
"Let's go, I'll go report to the Hokage, and then... I'll save you some travel expenses."
"Alright! Thank you, Squad Leader Shuimen!"
Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Nishikawa Tetsu immediately followed with a grin.
"By the way, Minato, could you be a little more stable when you teleport later? Last time you used teleport to help me, I almost threw up my breakfast. As a premium service, user experience is very important, so we need to work on the landing buffer..."
"Shut up, or you'll have to walk over there yourself."
"Okay!"
Their relaxed conversation echoed in the corridor of the Jonin class.
Sunlight streamed through the window, illuminating the photo of the Second Hokage on the wall.
If the second-generation sage could know this from beyond the grave and see the technology he developed turned out like this, I wonder if he would be relieved that there is a successor, or so angry that he would flip the coffin lid off.
