Chapter 141
Tsunade made it very clear—this was an immense achievement, one that would be rewarded with unimaginable prizes! However, even she couldn't be certain what kind of reward Haruto Saito would receive.
Since Haruto had no official position in Konoha and lacked high status or great power, the range of possible rewards was incredibly broad.
However, Haruto didn't care about money, power, or official ranks. Those things could be earned as long as he had enough strength. There was only one kind of reward that was truly, truly rare!
"Forbidden techniques? Can those really be used as rewards?" Haruto asked, his eyes lighting up.
"Of course!" Tsunade leaned in close and whispered, "There are very few techniques that are completely forbidden. Most forbidden techniques are simply too dangerous for lower-level shinobi to practice. Many forbidden techniques are also restricted to maintain their rarity. My grandfather and Tobirama-grandfather created many such techniques, and their training methods have been recorded. Lord Hokage has locked away all these forbidden jutsu scrolls. In Konoha, aside from the Hokage, no one has the right to read them! Some of these jutsu are only awarded to shinobi who accomplish major missions."
The grandfathers Tsunade referred to were, of course, Konoha's First Hokage, Hashirama Senju, and the Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju.
Haruto's eyes weren't just shining now—they were practically glowing!
Edo Tensei! Flying Thunder God Technique! Mutually Multiplying Explosive Tags! Spirit Transformation Technique! Multi-Shadow Clone Jutsu! Chakra Sensory!
Haruto immediately thought of many forbidden techniques mentioned in the original story, most of which had been created by the genius Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju. Among all the forbidden jutsu that Tobirama developed, the most terrifying, the most outrageous, was undoubtedly the summoning technique known as "Reanimation Jutsu"!
"What if I request a forbidden technique as my reward? What would Lord Hokage give me?" Haruto asked cautiously.
"How could I possibly know?"
