Chapter 75: Meeting again

  Most ninjas in the Narutoverse are prideful, and because of this, they rarely sider retreating from battles where the ces of defeat ah are high. They prefer to fight and die for their vilge, rather than strategically withdraw.

  Kaida might have dohe same had he been inally from this world. But being a transmigrator, he uood the broader picture—living to fight another day is more important than dying for the illusion of pea this world.

  This perspective also influenced Yomi. After hearing Kaida's views on the world, she too became more practical, fog on survival over bliion to the vilge. Now, they were training to master movement jutsu.

  Every jutsu in the Naruto world bee deadly if mastered enough. Shisui Uchiha, for instance, was famous for his movement jutsu, earning him the title "Shisui the Teleporter" or "Shisui of the Body Flicker."

  Shisui’s mastery of the Body Flicker Jutsu was so advahat he could create afterimages of himself. While some might argue that this be replicated with the e Jutsu, they're wrong.

  e Jutsu is basid easily be nullified if the enemy knows basising teiques or otice small details—something experieninjas excel at. Movement jutsu like the Body Flicker Jutsu, however, is different.

  Whe high speeds, like Shisui’s, it creates afterimages, making it nearly impossible for the eo predict the user's actual location. Sensor ninjas would struggle even more, as they’d sehe user in multiple pces at once.

  Because of this, Kaida and Yomi both decided to foastering movement jutsu. Kaida, despite knowing the Wind Instantaneous Movement Jutsu, which was superior to Body Flicker Jutsu in terms of the distance covered, decided to learn Body Flicker as well.

  Body Flicker is faster to execute and more practical in battle. Kaida also po ask Shisui to teach him how to master the teique, as it would signifitly boost his power.

  Kaida wasn’t foolish—he knew his current strength was parable to that of a Jonin, but he couldn’t yet fa elite Jonin. Still, reag Jonin-level strength before the age of nine was a sign of genius. If Kaida hadn’t known about the future events, he might have been proud of this achievement.

  However, knowing that evee Jonin would be mere on fodder in the uping flicts like the Pain Arc or the Freat Ninja War, he strove harder. He noeople in this world he o protect, and to do so, he o reach at least S-Rank strength.

  ...

  While they were practig iraining ground, Shisui Uchiha received hat Kaida had returned from his missioered by his mother to che Kaida, Shisui asked the guards for a favor, and being a respected ninja, they had no problem helping him.

  Upon hearing that Kaida was back, Shisui immediately went to Kaida's house, only to find it locked. A thought crossed his mind: *‘There’s no way he’s training right after a missiht?’* But remembering his previous enters with Kaida, he decided to check the training ground just in case.

  ...

  When Shisui arrived at the training ground, he couldn’t believe his suspis were correct. Kaida and Yomi were indeed practig movement jutsu. With his Mangekyo Sharingan and mastery of the Body Flicker Jutsu, Shisui easily reized the teiques they were using.

  *‘They must have entered something on the mission that motivated them to train this hard,’* Shisui thought. But being an experieninja, he decided not to ask about the mission. Instead, he used Body Flicker to appear directly in front of Kaida.

  ...

  Kaida ractig Body Flicker Jutsu as hard as he could, his Sharingan activated. He felt his Sharingan was on the verge of evolving, which is why he had only created three shadow es—the training required a rge amount of chakra.

  Just as he was about to use the Body Flicker Jutsu again, he sensed someone was about to appear in front of him. Due to the stant vigince required during their mission, Kaida had bee sensitive to sudden movements.

  Without time to prepare a jutsu, Kaida instinctively unched a chakra-enhanced punch toward the person about to appear.

  However, the person teleported just before the punch ected, reappearing only a few steps back. Kaida immediately reized him.

  “Hello, brother! Long time no see,” Shisui greeted with a smile.

  But inside, Shisui was thinking, *‘How is a kid his age this strong? That punch would have hurt even if I used Iron Skin Jutsu. And the speed... It’s great that my brother is this powerful.’*

  "You scared me there, brother!" Kaida said, ughing awkwardly.

  "Hahahaha! Well, I didn’t expect you to react like that. But let’s leave that aside. Do you remember what you said the st time we met?" Shisui asked.

  “Are you talking about visiting your house or the treat part?” Kaida asked.

  "First, let's go to my house. Then we talk about the treat," Shisui said, ughing.

  “I’m sorry, brother, but I ’t visit right now. Sensei said we might be called to the Hokage’s office to submit our missios,” Kaida apologized.

  “No problem. But you tell me when you’ll visit? My mother is nagging me about meeting her nephew,” Shisui asked.

  “I e in three days. I could e after we submit our reports, but I’m still uhe effects of the soldier pill. I want to meet my aunt when I’m fully refreshed. But if it’s urgent, I visit after the reports,” Kaida offered.

  “Oh, no, three days is fine. I’ll let Mom know. By the way, do you need my help with anything?” Shisui asked, hoping Kaida would ask for tips on mastering the Body Flicker Jutsu.

  “No, brother. For now, I don’t need anything. But I’ll e to you if I do.”

  "Alright, but don’t fet to rest properly. Resting is also part of training," Shisui reminded him.

  “Yes, brother,” Kaida replied.

  With that, Shisui used the Body Flicker Jutsu to vanish from the training ground.

  Normally, Kaida wouldn’t trust anyone so easily. But Shisui ortrayed as a very nice character in Naruto, and since Shisui was his cousin (which Kaida firmed from the family records in Konoha), he felt fortable trusting him.

  *(A.N.: YUP, I made this up, but e on—they must have something like that in Konoha, right?)*
