One for many, a sure profit.
Chu Yang was very interested in the Sand Manipulation Technique and Puppet Technique of the Sand Ninja Village.
Among them, the Sand Manipulation Technique was the Ninjutsu Chu Yang wanted more.
However, the Sand Manipulation Technique was a Ninjutsu that the Second Kazekage, Shamon, only began to research and develop after obtaining Ichibi Shukaku; currently, he only knew the Puppet Technique.
Chu Yang could only choose this Ninjutsu.
The Mist Ninja Village primarily used Water Release, but Chu Yang's teacher, Senju Tobirama, was also extremely proficient in Water Release, possibly even more skilled than Mizukage Byakuren.
If Chu Yang wanted to learn Water Release, he could directly ask Senju Tobirama for guidance.
The Mist Ninja Village's Ninjutsu held little appeal for Chu Yang.
The only one that truly caught Chu Yang's eye was the Second Mizukage Hōzuki Gengetsu's Steam Imp Technique.
This Ninjutsu could be endlessly cycled, and when used properly, it was practically a great weapon on the battlefield; combined with Wood Release, Chu Yang alone could withstand a large Ninja army.
Chu Yang also had a small ulterior motive.
To learn this Ninjutsu, one must also learn Hōzuki Gengetsu's other unique skill, Water Release: Oil Transformation.
This was like a buy-one-get-one-free deal; rounded up, Hōzuki Gengetsu was losing out big time.
And then there's the Lightning Ninja Village…
The eye-catching Ninjutsu from this village, of course, were the Third Raikage Ai's specialties: Lightning Release Armor and One-Finger Nukite.
These two Ninjutsu were hailed as the "Strongest Shield" and the "Strongest Spear."
One-Finger Nukite was impossible to learn, as it was the Third Raikage's unique skill, and at this time, the Third Raikage was still a child.
As for Lightning Release Armor, it was actually just a B-rank Ninjutsu, its official name being Lightning Release Chakra Mode.
In the Lightning Ninja Village, as long as one met the conditions, anyone could learn this Ninjutsu, though its effectiveness varied from person to person.
In the Third Raikage's hands, it was truly the "Strongest Shield."
In others' hands, it was unremarkable, hence only B-rank.
If Chu Yang were to offer this Ninjutsu as a trade condition, he would likely be seen as an idiot by the people of the Lightning Ninja Village.
Therefore, Lightning Release Armor could only be an extra.
After clarifying his thoughts, Chu Yang presented his requests to the four Kage one by one.
The Super Lightweight Rock Technique, Puppet Technique, and Steam Imp Technique, plus a written Experience on Lightning Release, personally penned by Raikage Ai.
Of the four conditions, three were unrelated to the current Kage, instead pointing to their successors.
Not to mention the Kazekage and others were surprised.
Even Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama showed curious expressions.
Where did this guy get this information?
Could it be that the Konoha Anbu had infiltrated to such an extent?
The four Kage's hearts tightened, but they still nodded in agreement.
Uchiha Madara's lips curved into a smile.
Just by seeing their reactions, he knew Chu Yang had made a very profitable deal.
At this point, the purpose of the Five Kage Summit had been achieved; it could be said to have ended perfectly.
Everyone got what they needed and set off on their return journey, satisfied.
Chu Yang himself didn't expect that he would be the one to profit immensely from this trip.
The two Uchiha brothers gathered and talked about something unknown.
On the way back, Uchiha Izuna stared at Chu Yang with a predatory gaze.
Of course, not with malicious intent.
Although Chu Yang was uncomfortable, he still chose to greet him with a smile, after all, Madara had given him such a great gift.
It made him feel bad about continuing to exploit the Uchiha Clan…
Chu Yang decided that after returning, he would change his strategic thinking, otherwise, his conscience would not be at ease.
Even more awkward than Chu Yang was Senju Hashirama.
The usually bold Senju Clan head, facing his new wife, was uncharacteristically shy.
His hesitant gaze, wanting to look but not daring to, made Chu Yang next to him unable to help but laugh.
Such an interesting scene, I must tell my teacher about it when we get back!
"Hashirama, after we go back, I also plan to get married. What do you think?"
Uchiha Madara appeared silently beside Senju Hashirama, startling Senju Hashirama, who had his full attention on his wife.
"What?" Senju Hashirama's eyes widened, saying incredulously, "You, this blockhead, actually have a day when you want to get married?"
"Objectively speaking, you are the blockhead." Uchiha Madara glanced at him, "I made this decision only because it benefits the Uchiha Clan."
Senju Hashirama suddenly understood, nodding and saying, "That does fit your personality."
"Do you have someone you fancy?"
"Fancy? That's meaningless, as long as she's suitable for the Uchiha Clan, that's enough."
"Ah? You'll marry even if you don't like her?"
"Then do you like this woman named Uzumaki Mito?"
"Uh… Hehehe."
Seeing Senju Hashirama scratch his head and chuckle, Uchiha Madara got his answer, and a smile appeared in his eyes. He nodded and said, "I will consider your opinion."
A moment later.
After Uchiha Madara walked away, Chu Yang stealthily ran up to Senju Hashirama and whispered, "Teacher, what were you and Madara talking about just now?"
Senju Hashirama waved his hand as if shooing away a fly, saying, "Why are you so nosy at such a young age! You wouldn't understand even if I told you, go away."
Not getting an answer, Chu Yang felt extremely uncomfortable.
He always felt that the two Uchiha brothers looked at him strangely, as if they had some unspeakable secret.
Everyone walked for another five days and finally saw the gates of Konoha Village.
81. Chapter 81: The Weddings of Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara
81.
One month later.
Konoha Village suddenly became lively.
Every household was decorated with lanterns and streamers.
Every villager's face was beaming with smiles.
For no other reason.
Simply because the First Hokage Senju Hashirama's wedding date was approaching.
This showed how much Senju Hashirama was loved by the people.
"I'm basking in Hashirama's glory; if it were just me getting married, they probably wouldn't be as happy as they are now."
Uchiha Madara and Uchiha Izuna stood on the Hokage Rock, looking down at the sea of people. For the first time, envy appeared in his eyes.
Uchiha Izuna was equally envious.
Being in charge of Anbu certainly meant holding power, but it also caused those around him to constantly distance themselves.
After all, normal people would feel fear towards a special force like Anbu.
"Madara, I don't think so. Teacher certainly deserves people's respect, but there are also many voices wishing you well."
"Instead of standing here aloof and observing, why not step into the crowd and listen for yourself?"
"I believe the result will not disappoint you."
Chu Yang appeared behind the two brothers, smiling as he handed over a scroll. He didn't know its contents; Senju Tobirama had instructed him to give it to Uchiha Madara.
"Kid, I heard you've already mastered the secret techniques of those four Ninja Villages?"
Uchiha Madara took the scroll from Chu Yang's hand, his eyes smiling, and teased, "Those are secret techniques with completely different Chakra natures. In just one month, even Senju Tobirama would find it hard to do, wouldn't he?"
Chu Yang sincerely said, "I learned them under Teacher's guidance, but I still have to thank Madara. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have had the opportunity to learn these secret techniques."
Uchiha Madara smiled and said, "You praised your teacher and flattered me. At such a young age, you're quite impeccable in your conduct."
Chu Yang chuckled.
Uchiha Izuna asked, "Are you here because of the wedding?"
Chu Yang nodded and said, "The Senju Clan and the Uchiha Clan have different wedding customs. Since you two plan to hold your weddings simultaneously, you must discuss the details properly, otherwise, it might become a joke."
Uchiha Madara was a bit impatient, frowning and saying, "Didn't I say, do whatever is convenient for you? I don't care about these things."
Chu Yang scratched his head with a troubled expression and said, "The problem is, Teacher Hashirama said the same thing…"
"That Hashirama!" Uchiha Madara laughed in exasperation, shaking his head helplessly, then nodded and said, "Got it, I'll go back and discuss it with him, trying not to make things difficult for you juniors."
Chu Yang breathed a sigh of relief and said gratefully, "Thank you very much, Madara."
Uchiha Madara's gaze suddenly lingered on Chu Yang, staring for a while, then slowly said, "Don't call me 'Madara' anymore. Just like you call Hashirama, call me Teacher."
Chu Yang froze.
What was this all about now?
Chu Yang's hesitation made Uchiha Madara's expression gradually darken. He said coldly, "What? Is my strength inferior to Hashirama's, so I'm not qualified to be your teacher?"
The biting coldness brought Chu Yang back to his senses. He immediately waved his hand and said, "I didn't mean that at all, it's just too sudden, I'm a bit bewildered…"
"Brother, don't scare him." Uchiha Izuna chuckled, "He can't make decisions about this kind of thing. You should go back and talk to Hashirama."
