After the team disbanded and returned home, Shūichi Hoshita immediately checked the newly triggered tag in the tag tree.
Tag: Konoha Genius

Nolan humbly responded and then glanced at Shenhe, who stood beside him.
"Your letter has already been delivered to the Adeptus, and this is Shenhe, a disciple of Cloud Retainer. The Adeptus has asked her to convey a message."
He felt that it would be better for Shenhe, as Cloud Retainer's disciple, to relay the message herself.

2024-08-18 09:30:42 +0000 UTC View PostShūichi Hoshita knew that if Tsunade's idea could truly be realized, the benefits would be immense.
But how could it be achieved?
Shūichi pondered, "Lady Tsunade, if we want to systematically store medical ninjutsu, then chakra would also need to be sealed along with it."
"To put it simply, it would involve sealing a jutsu that has already been released, and then releasing it again when needed."
As he spoke, he couldn't help but think of the Creation Rebirth...
2024-08-18 06:22:39 +0000 UTC View PostIn the bath, Shūichi Hoshita closed his eyes, contemplating the mission of being a double agent.
As a double agent, the most crucial factor was gaining the trust of both sides.
Earning Konoha's trust shouldn't be a problem. After all, he would be a Konoha ninja for a long time, with Minato Namikaze as his mentor and backing, and his loyalty to the village was well-established.
But how could he gain the Daimyō’s trust over a long period? Beyond the mission itself, the Dai...

Hoshita Shūichi had brought them back.
Minato glanced at the money, then looked at Hoshita Shūichi. "The Daimyō wants to recruit you?"
Shūichi nodded and then recounted the entire process.
Minato listened, wide-eyed and astonished. After some thought, he finally said, "A double agent?"
Shūichi stroked his chin, deep in thought. "That could actually work."
He hadn...

Uchiha Shisui was the first to speak up, "Sensei Minato, I’m more suited to a short sword."
Minato Namikaze then turned his gaze to Hoshita Shūichi.
Hoshita Shūichi shrugged and said, "Sensei Minato, my Tostuka is also a chakra blade."
"Besides, the credit for this mission goes mostly to you, Minato Sensei."

2024-08-18 05:22:49 +0000 UTC View PostCompared to Hoshita Shūichi and Uchiha Shisui, Kurama Sanyō is a pure genjutsu-type ninja.
Thus, his combat style is different from the other two. Before his opponent could even reach him, he had already formed hand seals and cast a genjutsu.
Genjutsu - Mirage!
This is a visual genjutsu that deceives the enemy’s eyes, making everything they see shrouded in a false illusion.
However, the young swordsman clearly had ample combat experience. After his first strike mis...
2024-08-18 05:21:48 +0000 UTC View PostShūichi Hoshita’s victory in the first round was a great start, earning him 100,000 ryō.
However, to everyone's shock, the black-robed youth was executed by Ken’ichi as soon as he returned.
“He...”
Kurama Sanyō was too stunned to speak.
Minato Namikaze, with a serious expression, reminded them, “Shisui, Sanyō, be careful from now on.”
With the opposing jōnin showing such ruthlessness, the remaining opponents would certainly fight desperately. 2024-08-17 18:23:45 +0000 UTC View Post
"So, Adeptus, what do you plan to do now?" Nolan asked, noticing a certain tone in Cloud Retainer's voice. Perhaps it was because the letter came from Ningguang.
Unlike in the game, Cloud Retainer didn’t suspect that the Liyue Qixing had assassinated the Geo Archon. But what exactly had Ningguang written in that letter? Nolan and Lumine hadn’t peeked at its contents after receiving it, so they had no idea.
"To determine the situation with the Geo Archon, we must see his Adeptu...

All six were men.
Two of them were older, appearing to be in their forties.
The other four were slightly younger but still seemed older than Minato Namikaze, likely in their mid-twenties or older.
They had fierce expressions!
Where did he find these rogue ninjas?
Shūichi silently mocked.<...

April 19th, Konoha Year 39.
Shūichi Hoshita and Uchiha Shisui met up at their usual spot. After waiting for a moment, Minato Namikaze appeared.
"Shūichi!" Minato called out as he handed over a scroll.
"Minato-sensei, this is..." Shūichi reached out and took the scroll.
Minato smiled and said, "This is a special request I made to the Third Hokage, Konoha's Swordsmanship style."

Shūichi Hoshita woke up early.
After washing up and putting on his black training uniform, he jogged out the door.
First up, a 10-kilometer run around the village!
With a light step, Shūichi disappeared into the morning light.
Ten minutes later, a familiar voice reached his ears.
It was Might Guy!
Sure enough, Shūichi soon saw Guy approaching from around a corner, moving towards him on his hands.
Guy lifted his hea...

It was his first time witnessing the power of a hand grenade.
Shūichi Hoshita was quite satisfied with the grenade's debut, smiling as he said, "Just a small design, Shisui, you'll understand more about it in the future."
Uchiha Shisui immediately understood and nodded without asking further questions.
As he walked forward, Shūichi opened his mouth and unleashed a ...

The two of them then unleashed their chakra without hesitation, propelling themselves forward with the Body Flicker Technique to its maximum potential.
This was Shisui's specialty, and his speed was faster than Shūichi's. Within seconds, he caught up with two enemies, and the sounds of clash...
2024-08-17 12:48:40 +0000 UTC View PostListening to Uchiha Shisui, both Shūichi Hoshita and Kurama Sanyō turned their attention to the Anbu ninja.
He had returned to report, but without the intel. This suggested that something went wrong either during or just before the rendezvous.
The Anbu ninja seemed to be around the same age as Minato, and Shūichi felt a sense of familiarity with him.
Sitting cross-legged on the ground, Shisui swallowed a military ration pill and said, “Rest up for a bit longer. A sudden...

After everything was in order, Minato Namikaze issued his command: "The first half of the night, Shisui and I will patrol together. Shūichi and Sanyō, you two will take the second half. Get some rest while you can."
"Understood!"

After only half an hour of rest, Minato Namika...

Shizune exclaimed in delight. She hadn’t seen Shūichi Hoshita for several days.
Might Guy was full of energy: “There’s no room for slacking off! Today, I'll challenge myself to climb the cliff 500 times. If I can’t do it, I'll have a match with Shūichi!”
Sarutobi Asuma was secretly impressed: “Their speed is incredible.”

Before Deadpool could continue his nonsense, another mechanical arm formed from nano particles extended from behind Dr. Otto, condensing into a sharp, glinting spike. The cold blade halted precisely in front of Deadpool's eyes, mere inches from piercing his eyeball.

Jin glared sharply at Annihilape, reaching into his pocket to pull out one of the six Poké Balls inside.

Even though night had fallen, Minato Namikaze decided they should return to Konoha.

“I will set off first. You will leave in half an hour and must accurately track my trail.”

There were two squads in total, all wearing animal masks and black cloaks, except for the leader.
However, the leader's identity shocked Shūichi Hoshita to the core.
Orochimaru!

Has he already joined Root this quickly?
Upon seeing Orochimaru, Minato Namikaze immediately stepped forward and bowed in respect. “Orochimaru-sama.”

Uchiha Shisui carried the prisoner on his back while Shūichi Hoshita and the others bid farewell to Minato Namikaze under the moonlight. They then retraced their steps, eventually stopping to rest at the foot of the mountain where the rogue ninja’s hideout was located.
Sanyō Kurama, still worried, said, “Shisui, are we really okay letting Minato-sensei handle a Jōnin and two Chūnin all by himself?”

In the forest, Shūichi Hoshita and his three companions silently observed.
The contact didn’t display any obvious signs of being a Suna ninja. Instead, he appeared to be a wandering samurai.
The distance was too great to hear what they were saying, and Shūichi didn’t know how to read lips.
Within five minutes, the meeting concluded.
As the rogue ninjas began to head back, Shū...

“Judging by the traces, it’s been at least a month since someone was here,” Shisui Uchiha observed.
Shūichi scanned the cave and then volunteered, “Minato-sensei, I’ll go check outside.”
Minato Namikaze nodded, “Sanyō, go with Shūichi.”

For someone outside the Uchiha clan to have such extraordinary reflexes, Shūichi was indeed a promising candidate for mastering the Flying Thunder God.
Of course, mastering this technique required not only exceptional reflexes but also a strong sense of perception and spatial awareness.
“But it’s too early for that,” Minato thought with a smile.
