After much careful consideration, Tobirama made a decision. He decided to pass on his most prized jutsu, the Flying Thunder God Technique, to Kazekaze!
On one hand, Kazekaze is exceptionally talented, mastering Super Strength, Eight Gates, Water Release, Shadow Clone Technique, and Wood Release in just a few months. Moreover, he developed the terrifying Rasengan!
Ever since witnessing Kazekaze's Rasengan, Tobirama has been researching it whenever he has time. The result that amazed him was... the Rasengan is even more difficult than he imagined. Even though he understood the principles, Tobirama still couldn't grasp the training. This is something one can only understand after experiencing it firsthand. This is a high-level jutsu that even he, the God of Ninjutsu, cannot easily learn!
"The Rasengan, this jutsu, its training level is at least S-rank..."
This matter shocked Tobirama once again. Although he knows Kazekaze can't be judged by common sense, developing an S-rank jutsu so casually still greatly shook him to his core. It made him realize once again just how astonishing Kazekaze's talent is. It completely overturned his understanding of developing jutsu.
"Moreover, the Rasengan invented by Kazekaze still has room for further development."
Through Tobirama's observation, he found that the Rasengan is a non-elemental jutsu. It is a jutsu formed by rotating Chakra in irregular directions. It does not involve infusing Chakra nature. In other words, if one can infuse Chakra nature transformation into the Rasengan, the power of this jutsu can be completely enhanced. Further increased! And possibly more than doubled!
This discovery both surprised and delighted Tobirama. Once again realizing the fact that Kazekaze is a genius, a monster. Of course, for Tobirama right now, let alone considering how to infuse Chakra nature transformation into the Rasengan, he hasn't even learned the basic Rasengan yet! Yes, he, the God of Ninjutsu, still hasn't learned the Rasengan! Not only hasn't he learned it, Tobirama doesn't even have a clue on how to learn the Rasengan!
"Thinking about it this way, doesn't that mean Kazekaze is..."
Standing in his office, Tobirama couldn't help but gasp. An astonishing fact was laid out before him. Even if Tobirama was unwilling to admit it, he had no choice.
"This seven-year-old brat Kazekaze casually invented a jutsu that even I can't learn? How on earth does this guy's brain work?"
In an instant, Tobirama's mindset collapsed! In the end... who is the God of Ninjutsu, really? Tobirama held his forehead, feeling a bit frantic inside. Compared to Kazekaze, he felt like a complete fool.
"However, although the Rasengan is powerful and doesn't require hand signs... every jutsu carries risks and costs. Like the Edo Tensei I invented before. It requires the sacrifice of living people as a cost. Once the reanimated knows the hand signs, they can use reverse hand signs to break free. At that point, things could get chaotic. However, I don't plan to pass the Edo Tensei to anyone else."
Initially, Tobirama invented the Edo Tensei to revive his brother. But after realizing the cost and risks of this jutsu, he decided to classify it as forbidden. To prevent anyone from using this jutsu to cause trouble for Konoha in the future.
"Using the Edo Tensei to revive me and my brother, then going against the Hokage of Konoha. Just thinking about it is terrifying. Well... a ninja capable of such a thing doesn't exist anyway. In any case, these are conditions every jutsu has, and the Rasengan is no exception."
Tobirama muttered to himself. Although the Rasengan has various advantages, its weaknesses are also quite apparent.
"That is its attack range. The Rasengan must be held in the hand, requiring close contact to use it against an enemy. Although Kazekaze has mastered the Eight Gates, there are ninjas faster than him. They do exist. However... if Kazekaze learns the Flying Thunder God Technique, it would be different."
In Tobirama's view, the Flying Thunder God Technique and the Rasengan are the perfect combination. First, mark the enemy, then teleport behind them. Hit them with a Rasengan. Just imagining that scene, Tobirama could feel the enemy's despair.
On the other hand, he is Kazekaze's grandfather. As a grandfather, he should leave something for his grandson. You can't take it with you when you die. Should he take the Flying Thunder God Technique to the grave?
The reason he hadn't planned this before was that the Flying Thunder God Technique is a space-time jutsu. Its training difficulty is extremely high. Whether it's the perceptive Hiruzen or Kagami, who possesses the Sharingan, neither could learn the Flying Thunder God Technique. But... Kazekaze is different! He is a genius. He is a monster! If it's him, he can definitely learn the Flying Thunder God Technique.
"Moreover, Kazekaze's greatest advantage is his youth. He can completely afford to spend years. Investing one or two years, five or ten years. Even if Kazekaze takes ten years to fully master the Flying Thunder God Technique, that would be enough."
The most crucial thing is... the Flying Thunder God Technique is one of the few jutsu Tobirama can still showcase. Although he is indeed the God of Ninjutsu, most of his jutsu have been classified as forbidden. It's not really appropriate to teach them to Kazekaze.
"However... the Flying Thunder God Technique is an S-rank jutsu, and that brat Kazekaze might not be able to master it."
Tobirama took a deep breath and made up his mind. Thinking of this, Tobirama glanced at the clock on the wall.
"Hmm, it's time to get off work."
After confirming the end of work hours, Tobirama left the office. Although he is now in charge of Konoha, working overtime, Tobirama refuses to do it. It's not wartime now. In peaceful times, why is there so much work that requires overtime?
"No..."
Tobirama shook his head, unable to resist commenting, "How could there be such a foolish Hokage?"
Meanwhile, Kazekaze leaned back and lay down on the tatami. After a fierce battle with Tsunade, he successfully swindled all the bundles of cash... Ah no, he won them all fair and square!
"Hmm?"
Kazekaze glanced at Tsunade, who was pouting, sulking, and holding back tears. Ah ah ah. Tsunade looks so cute.
[Detected that the clock-in system cooldown has ended!] A familiar voice echoed in Kazekaze's mind.
