361 Learning Ninjutsu in a Glance
🕑 Added 2025-12-07 06:09:01 +0000 UTCEver since the Sixth Hokage's succession ceremony, half a year passed in the blink of an eye.
During these six months, Shinju had been helping the village build defensive fortifications while also handling all sorts of trivial matters. It had worn him out completely!
Right now, Shinju's real body was lying on the rooftop, basking in the sunshine.
"Man, all the miscellaneous stuff really should be handled by clones. The real body should just enjoy life. ❛‿˂̵✧"
"Speaking of which, Naruto's academic classes should be wrapping up soon. When that happens, I'll just hand the whole village over to him! (´◊ω◊｀)"
Shinju pushed up the sunglasses resting on his nose.
"Come to think of it, the Great Toad Sage's prophecy still hasn't come true. Weird."
Half a year ago, the Great Toad Sage said a celestial being would descend in the coming days.
But it had already been half a year—those 'coming days' still hadn't arrived!
Shinju had gone to Mount Myōboku a few times during that period, but the Great Toad Sage was either asleep or dazed, completely incapable of normal conversation.
"Looks like the prophecy really drained the toad's spirit. It's been six months and he still hasn't recovered."
Shinju muttered.
…
Night arrived quickly.
A tired Sasuke and Naruto returned home…
There wasn't a single Uchiha left in the village now, so Sasuke simply lived with Naruto and Shinju.
"So exhausted… there were so many documents these last two days." Naruto rubbed his temples as he spoke.
Sasuke nodded. "Yeah. Shinju has it the easiest—throws clones in the Hokage's office while he enjoys life outside. ←_←"
Hearing them, Shinju walked down the stairs and spread his hands.
"Once a clone dispels, all memories return to the real body. The mental fatigue is the same. ┐(´-｀)┌"
"All right, come up and eat…"
At the table, Naruto scarfed down the food and kept praising it.
"So good, so good! Shinju's cooking really is the best! ❛‿˂̵✧"
Compared to Naruto, Sasuke looked much more refined.
"Oh yeah, I heard someone in the Land of Lightning used chakra conversion tech to build a massive transport vehicle. I think they're calling it the 'Thunder Car.'" Sasuke mentioned casually.
"I know that one! But it can only run on a special track, and it's still being tested—not officially in use yet." Naruto quickly added.
"Right, and I heard someone in the Land of Fire invented something that lets you play games on a tiny screen—called a game console…" Naruto continued.
Sasuke nodded. "I heard about that too. Pretty impressive guy…"
Shinju quietly listened to the two of them talk, and the more he listened, the more familiar it all sounded!
At this development pace, wouldn't chakra smartphones and QR codes show up soon…?
Wait! (´°Δ°`)
A spark went off in Shinju's mind!
After the Fourth War, shinobi-world tech had surged forward!
And because he was a transmigrant, he had partial knowledge of future technology.
So… could he use that to develop new tech and make a huge fortune?
The more he thought about it, the more feasible it sounded. He was so excited he didn't even want dinner anymore—he planned to head back to his room to research.
Just then, Naruto suddenly pointed at the moon outside the window and shouted, shocked, "Whoa! Look! Isn't the moon slowly getting bigger?! (≖╻≖;) "
Shinju turned his head to look at the round moon in the night sky.
After staring carefully for a while, he confirmed—the moon was slowly drifting closer to Earth!
"Is this natural… or caused by someone?" Shinju muttered.
Suddenly, a small flash entered his vision!
Shinju frowned and looked toward it, realizing the glowing object was a meteorite! (≖╻≖;)
Judging from its trajectory, it was about to fall near the village!
Shinju didn't dare waste time. He crossed his hands and aimed at the fast-descending meteorite.
"Dust Release: Detachment of the Primitive World Technique!"
Long-range snipe!
"Hzzzz—!!"
A beam of Dust Release fired instantly!
A white line streaked through the sky!
"Flash!"
After hitting the falling meteorite, the white line expanded rapidly until it completely swallowed and erased it.
After dealing with the small meteor, Shinju lifted his head toward the moon again.
He couldn't shake the feeling the two events were connected.
…
The next morning.
"BANG! BANG! BANG!!"
Tsunade's furious knocking woke Shinju up.
"Get up!! It's already four in the morning—why are you still sleeping?!"
"The world is about to be destroyed! Don't sleep now!"
Shinju opened his eyes groggily, threw on clothes, opened the door, and asked with a deadpan face,
"Tsunade-sensei, even iron men need rest."
Tsunade said, "Rest later! The moon is rapidly approaching our planet! Ōnoki has urgently called for a Five Kage Summit!"
Hearing that, Shinju yawned. "Where's the meeting being held? I'll head over."
"We haven't decided yet! I rushed here the moment I heard the news."
"You can use Flying Thunder God. You choose the location and bring the other four Kage there."
…
One minute later.
The meeting hall of the Land of Iron.
The four groggy Kage stared at each other in confusion!
When Shinju gathered them, he teleported directly to each of them with Flying Thunder God, said nothing, and immediately whisked them to the Land of Iron!
Because it was so sudden, some of them were still wearing pajamas—like Mei Terumi…
The Tsuchikage said, "I'll be blunt. I don't know if any of you noticed, but the moon is approaching us at an extremely fast rate!"
Gaara nodded. "Not only that, meteorite falls have become more frequent."
The Raikage's assistant pushed up his glasses.
"When two celestial bodies draw close, their gravity begins to interact. Our planet and the moon are currently experiencing this. The moon's surface has begun to collapse due to gravitational stress, and fragments have already fallen into our world."
"The moon continues to approach. If this keeps up, all fragmented moon debris will fall on our planet. When that happens, humanity will reach its end."
Mei—still in pajamas—asked, "What's causing this? Natural lunar movement? Or intentional manipulation?"
The Raikage said, "To pull the moon… is that something a human can even do…? ⊙▽⊙"
After he spoke, all four Kage turned their eyes toward Shinju.
Shinju: "…"
"Why're you all looking at me? Would I seriously pull the moon for fun? I'm not brain-damaged. ←_←"
Gaara immediately caught the implication. "So you can pull the moon? (꒪⌓꒪) "
Shinju spread his hands, neither confirming nor denying. ┑(￣Д ￣)┍
The Raikage said, "Let's put aside lunar manipulation for now. The main issue is how to help humanity survive this disaster."
"I think we should use the chakra cannon!"
"Our Kumogakure Chakra Cannon can shatter the moon and intercept the debris after it breaks apart! ❛‿˂̵✧"
