Chapter 162
Haruto Saito's path to mastering the Flying Thunder God Technique was secured by Minato Namikaze!
He didn't dare to rely on his own talent—this wasn't self-deprecation but a simple recognition of reality. The Flying Thunder God Technique was of an insanely difficult level. Even with talent, it would take years just to get started. Moreover, as Sarutobi Hiruzen had mentioned, possessing a space-time affinity was a rarity among ninjas, a one-in-ten-thousand kind of rarity!
If there was a shortcut, he would take it!
This was different from chakra sensing. Since Haruto's sensory talent had been enhanced before, his training in chakra perception naturally progressed at a fast pace. Besides, he trained alone because he couldn't find a suitable mentor to discuss it with. Sensory-type ninjas were already rare, and those with exceptional talent were even rarer. Even if he did find someone suitable, there was no guarantee he'd have access to them.
In reality, Haruto wasn't in a hurry to master chakra sensing. But mastering the Flying Thunder God? That was urgent!
This was a technique that could make him leap to new heights in strength instantly!
As students continued to exit the school gates, a few teachers were also visible. Haruto didn't recognize them, but with his True Sight ability, he could see everyone's information clearly. Among the crowd were many children of similar age. The students of the Ninja Academy ranged from five to twelve years old—five being the age of enrollment, and twelve being the graduation age.
Haruto himself was around eleven or twelve, though he wasn't entirely certain. He could only estimate.
After waiting for a while, Haruto still didn't see the eight-year-old boy with golden hair and blue eyes emerging from the school. Just as he was about to move, a familiar scent reached his nose. Before he could react, a hand landed on his shoulder.
"Dear Haruto-san! No wonder you weren't home just now. What are you doing here?" A teasing voice reached Haruto's ears.
He already knew who it was. Turning his head, he saw Tsunade standing beside him!
