Requirements

"Give me another one." Tobirama Senju rejected Ishigami's request without hesitation, and looked at him with a dark expression. "If you make any more unreasonable demands, don't blame me for disowning you."

"..."

He just wants to buy a piece of land; how can that be considered an unreasonable request?

But upon hearing Tobirama Senju's words, Ishigami could only regretfully give up.

We really have to place our hopes on the future Seventh Hokage!

But what exactly should we mention?

It's not that I don't know what to mention, but rather that I'm struggling with what to mention.

As we all know... the Second Hokage was known in the ninja world as the master of forbidden techniques. He created countless incredibly powerful forbidden techniques throughout his life, and even in Boruto's era, his forbidden techniques are still as advanced as ever.

And although he was a Hokage, the Second Hokage was also an unparalleled master of Water Release ninjutsu.

It goes without saying how valuable it is!

As a master of forbidden techniques, even a single move taught to him would be enough for a commoner ninja like him to learn.

Seeing that Ishigami was deep in thought, Tobirama Senju waited quietly, his arms crossed, without saying a word, but a unique light flashed in his eyes as he looked at Ishigami.

It was as if they were curious about what kind of ninjutsu this future kid would choose.

At this moment, Shi Jian seemed to have already made up his mind, or rather, he hadn't thought about it for long. Although he was a little conflicted, since he had a choice, why ask?

"I want to learn the Flying Thunder God Technique!"

If bloodline limits are extremely important in the ninja world, a powerful bloodline limit can instantly transform a weakling into a strong one.

For ordinary people without any bloodline limit, if they want to catch up with those ninjas who do have bloodline limit, there is no doubt that... the Flying Thunder God Technique is the answer.

Once you learn it, even if you don't become a top player, you can still manage to get into the final rounds and maybe even slack off.

"The Flying Thunder God Technique?" Upon hearing Ishigami's words, Tobirama Senju looked somewhat surprised, his gaze fixed on Ishigami with a meaningful expression. "I didn't expect that a child like you would know the Flying Thunder God Technique. It seems that even after my death, someone else has learned it."

"Yes, after your death, the Fourth Hokage learned the Flying Thunder God Technique." Shi Jian nodded. "And it's rumored that he even surpassed you, the developer."

"..."

You've surpassed me?

Tobirama Senju curled his lip in disdain, letting out a cold sneer. "While I don't believe the next Hokage would choose a weakling as his successor, I don't think someone who learned space-time ninjutsu and then died can surpass me!"

"What's so strange!" Seeing Tobirama Senju's confident expression, Ishigami rolled his eyes and retorted irritably, "There was another one who also knew the Flying Thunder God Technique, but he still died while covering their retreat, didn't he?"

"???" x2

When these words were spoken, Madara Uchiha and Tobirama Senju were both stunned.

As for Hashirama Senju, he looked up at Tobirama Senju with a surprised expression. "Tobirama, there's another person who has also learned your Flying Thunder God Technique?"

"..." Upon hearing his elder brother's words, Tobirama Senju's face darkened. "That's me!"

"Hahaha~" Madara Uchiha was somewhat surprised and gloating upon hearing that Tobirama Senju had died while covering the retreat, and he made no attempt to hide his feelings. "This is truly delightful news. It seems your ninjutsu isn't all that impressive after all!"

"Madara Uchiha, you're inherently evil, don't get too cocky." Faced with Madara's taunts, Tobirama Senju's dark expression vanished instantly, replaced by a mocking smile. "I died in the war, but you… Madara Uchiha not only betrayed Konoha, but you were also killed by your own brother!"

"..."

This time, it was Madara Uchiha's turn to turn pale, his fists clenched tightly. But looking at the window in front of him, he suppressed his anger, let out a cold snort, and said in a muffled voice, "That's not me!"

"Who knows? Madara Uchiha, born evil!"

"You scoundrel, Tobirama Senju, a born despicable villain!"

"Alright, alright!" Seeing the two arguing again, Hashirama Senju, caught in the middle, quickly tried to calm them down. "Give me some face, everyone stop arguing, we don't have much time left!"

"!!!" x2

Upon hearing this, the two calmed down and realized that now was not the time to argue.

After exchanging a glare, Tobirama Senju composed himself, looked at the stone ravine opposite him, crossed his arms, and put on a serious expression. "Kid, space-time ninjutsu isn't something you can learn easily. In fact, talent is quite important if you want to learn space-time ninjutsu."

As he spoke, he looked intently into the stone ravine.

"Since you know about the Flying Thunder God Technique, you should know just how difficult it is to learn this ninjutsu. Let me tell you, you only have one chance. If you can't learn it by then, don't blame me."

The voice just fell.

Upon hearing Tobirama Senju's words, Ishigami fell silent.

Space-time ninjutsu is indeed very difficult to learn, and the Flying Thunder God Technique is of paramount importance.

Throughout the entire ninja village's history of over a hundred years, only six people ultimately mastered it, and three of them... even needed to combine their powers to use it.

Even Boruto's Flying Thunder God Technique later on was not learned from the original Flying Thunder God Technique. Instead, it was a space-time ninjutsu similar to the Flying Thunder God Technique that he created himself, relying on the space-time talent of the Otsutsuki bloodline.

Compared to the original space-time ninjutsu, it has advantages. It doesn't require leaving a special formula; you can travel through it simply by sensing a special metal. However, its disadvantages are also quite obvious. It cannot be as free and unrestrained as the Flying Thunder God Technique created by the Second Hokage.

The difficulty of learning it is self-evident.

As a child from an ordinary family, and an orphan at that, compared to learning such a difficult ninjutsu that he might not even be able to master, perhaps a B-rank or A-rank ninjutsu that matches the nature of his body's chakra would be more suitable for him.

As for the Flying Thunder God Technique... as long as the connection between the past and the present is not severed, I believe he will find opportunities to learn it in the future.

Therefore, without a doubt...

With a determined look on his face, Shi Jian stared at Tobirama Senju opposite him, "I want to learn the Flying Thunder God Technique!"

"???"

Upon receiving Ishigami's reply, Tobirama Senju was still taken aback, his brows furrowing once more. "Didn't I say that this technique isn't suitable for you right now? What you need now isn't a ninjutsu that's extremely difficult to learn, but a simple, practical ninjutsu, such as Water Dragon Bullet or Water Barrage—a practical and easy-to-learn technique."

"I know, but..." Shi Jian nodded, a smile appearing on his youthful face. "The Flying Thunder God Technique is so cool! And these... I can learn them later. Since I've received a request from the Second Hokage, I can't just waste them like this."

As he spoke, he looked at Tobirama Senju suspiciously, "No way, no way! Second Hokage, you're not planning to break your promise and not teach me, are you?!"

"..."

This guy!!!

Tobirama Senju glared at the shifty-looking Ishigami with a dark expression, but still took a deep breath and said irritably, "Whatever!"
