I Punch the Tailed Beast Ball

”Yes.” The three of them said in unison.

After Nagasawa revealed this move, any decent human would know that these two types of Haki were very strong. It would be strange if they didn’t want to learn them.

Color of Arms Haki could strengthen defense and offense, it was simply made for battle.

The fact that Color of Observation Haki could directly sense the presence and predict the attack made it the best sensory Ninjutsu.

Nagasawa smiled and said, ”very well, dismissed! have a good rest. We will do the mission tomorrow.”

Hana Inuzuka stepped down and became listless. ”Squad Leader Nagasawa, you are so evil. You first arouse our curiosity and just leave us be.”

Then she squatted down and stroked Ashimaru’s head, ”Ashimaru, don’t become like him in the future. If you’re naughty, I will spank you.”

Meanwhile, Ensui also stood back up while trying to make sense of the whole situation,

”How can such a secret technique be taught just like that...”

Unlike the two, Kakashi was looking forward to the training. Although he did not have much interaction with Nagasawa, their recent interaction told him that Nagasawa was not the kind of person who would do something on a whim.

Although the secret technique was precious, it should be possible to pass it down to others.

The Taijutsu called Soru was a good example, as Nagasawa directly gave him the learning method.

”It is not that I don’t want to teach you, but you have not reached the minimum requirement yet.” Nagasawa smiled. It’s not so easy to learn Haki. I will arrange the training for you, so just wait patiently.

Haki was the power of the One Piece world, but because of the Whitebeard template, he could bestow the potential to use Haki to other people in Konoha.

But it was not cheap. One person needed 3000 points, and his points were all used to raise Whitebeard’s fusion rate. Now the fusion rate has reached 44%.

However, every week, he would distribute points according to Prosperity. He had already received 11,000 points for a week.

People in the village would also provide points when their strength increased. Although each individual provided very little, the number of people made up the total amount.

”Yes! I knew that Squad Leader Nagasawa was definitely a good leader. Ashimaru, you have to learn from Squad Leader.”

Hearing that Nagasawa would arrange a training plan, Hana Inuzuka instantly changed her attitude.

”Didn’t you just say that I was evil?” Nagasawa expressed that he was not so easy to fool.

”Hehe.” Hana Inuzuka giggled, thinking that she could get away with it.

Nagasawa was too lazy to argue with a 16-year-old girl. After the meeting, he immediately left.

He was going to find Minato to take a mission.

Anbu was a relatively special organization, and the missions he carried out were also different from the missions of ordinary Shinobis.

Because Anbu answered directly to the Hokage, all of his missions were issued by the Hokage.

An ordinary Anbu naturally could not go directly to Hokage. Their mission would be first passed over to the Captain, and then the Captain assigned it to each squad.

However, Minato deliberately appointed Nagasawa as the Squad Leader, so he was given the privilege of seeing him in order to receive the mission.

Since he had the privilege, then Nagasawa naturally would not waste it.

He was not familiar with being an Anbu Captain, so he was certain that he’d just get a boring patrol mission.

If he wanted to climb up the rank quickly, he couldn’t just patrol every day. He had to do something.

...

...

Entering the office, Nagasawa looked at Minato, who was busy at his desk, and smiled, ”Why do you look so busy? I heard Kushina complain that you sometimes don’t go back at night.”

Minato scratched his head and said helplessly, ”I’m really busy. After all, after such a big war, the village has suffered too many losses. I have to take care of a mountain of paperwork every single day, that I forgot about Kushina lately. Fortunately, you remind me.”

Nagasawa smiled twice and stated his purpose.

When Minato heard Nagasawa’s words, he seemed to ponder about something. He picked up a document from the pile of documents and looked at it. He then said, ”you came at the right time. I was wondering to whom I should entrust this mission. If it were you, I would be relieved.”

Nagasawa was interested. It sounded like a very difficult high-level mission. He asked, ”What mission?”

”Do you remember the three Shinobis you and Kakashi brought back a few days ago?” Minato asked.

Nagasawa nodded. How could he forget what happened a few days ago?

”The torture and interrogation force finally managed to find something from him. He’s an Anbu from the Kusagakure,” Minato continued.

”Kusagakure Shinobi, how dare they! So the mission is to assassinate their higher-ups?” Nagasawa was a little excited.

After fusing with the Whitebeard template, he didn’t have any chance to truly test out his power yet. Although Kusagakure was a small village, it was the strongest among the small village. There was even a certain number of Jonin in the village.

Therefore, the leader of Kusagakure was definitely not weak. They should be stronger than a Special Jonin.

Only by fighting a truly skilled Shinobi could he clearly gauge his own strength.

He only knew that he should be around Kage-level, but he had no idea how strong he was.

Minato shook his head and said, ”It would be good if it were so simple. Things are more complicated than you think.”

Minato added,” because this is a dispute between countries, I had a meeting with the elders and counselors to discuss. My idea is to send our skilled Shinobi to deter them and then ask for compensation. However, Third felt that something was off. He had just talked with Iwagakure, so he thought it was inappropriate for us to attack. Moreover, Kusagakure was Konoha’s ally, so we should not threaten them and have the two sides have a good talk instead.

Meanwhile, Danzo felt that it was not enough. He believed that we should send our Shinobi to teach Kusagakure a lesson.

Nagasawa was amused by Minato’s words. He understood the helplessness in Minato’s words and teased,

”You are the Hokage, but no one listens to you.”

”After all, I am still too young and inexperienced.” Minato did not know whether he should laugh at the Third Hokage, Danzo, or himself.

”So whose advice did you go with?” Nagasawa asked directly.

”Both Counselor Homura and Koharu supported the Third’s proposal, but Danzo-san gave up his proposal and supported me instead. In the end, we compromised. Since we got the information by deciphering the hostage’s memory, we don’t have solid evidence to say that they are indeed Kusagakure Shinobis.

If I can prove that they are Kusagakure’s Anbu, then we’ll go with my proposal. If I can’t, we’ll go with the Third’s plan.

”I will set this mission as S-Class. Anbu’s information has always been the highest secret in every village. The difficulty and danger levels are very high. Nagasawa, do you want to accept this mission?”

Nagasawa smiled, ”S-class, the highest level. Of course, I will. I don’t want to be the Squad Leader all the time.”

He wanted to completely revolutionize Anbu, but the position of the Squad Leader wouldn’t give him such authority. At least, he had to become the Commander, only below Hokage.

After all, raising Anbu’s strength could increase Prosperity, which was equivalent to strengthening himself. Of course, he’d do whatever it took to do that.

Minato also smiled and said, ”I also don’t want you to be the Squad Leader all the time.”

It wasn’t easy for him to persuade Nagasawa to join Anbu, so how could he miss the opportunity to show Nagasawa’s capabilities?

The two of them looked at each other and laughed.
