Chapter 246: Chapter 246: The Heavenly Transport Jutsu Isn't Worth My Susanoo
At this moment, Akira Uchiha wasn't in the best of moods.
Why? Because in order to master the Heavenly Transport Jutsu, he had to keep burning cash. Do you understand what that means? Every time, a whopping ten million ryo gone.
He had no choice, really. He hadn't known earlier that he would need to learn this jutsu. If he had known back when it only cost a million ryo per simulation, he could've saved himself a fortune!
So now, with nothing to do but wait for his daily life simulations, Akira spent most of his time being cozy with Hinata.
And Sasuke? Well, he kept a close eye on Akira, watching as he spent three whole days courting Hinata, and found it utterly strange.
Weren't they supposed to be training hard to master the Heavenly Transport Jutsu? Yet these past few days, all he saw was Akira indulging in romance.
One night, Sasuke waited until Akira returned home late, after another date with Hinata.
"Still awake?" Akira greeted him, sounding a bit tipsy.
He really couldn't deny it-Hinata was usually so shy, but after a few drinks, with the tipsiness setting in, she loosened up quite a bit. No wonder guys back in his previous life liked taking girls out for drinks so much.
"I've been waiting for you," Sasuke replied.
"Oh? What's up?" Akira asked, surprised.
"It's about the Heavenly Transport Jutsu. You said you were going to learn it, but Iwagakure will be under attack in just two days!" Sasuke voiced his concern.
"Well, I can't help it, can I? My fifteenth birthday is in two days, and Hinata wanted to celebrate with me early. It makes sense, doesn't it?" Akira replied.
"Oh, uh... happy birthday then!" Sasuke stammered, realizing he'd forgotten. He couldn't help but be amazed. Only fifteen, yet already possessing power that could dominate the shinobi world?
It was hard to believe.
"Thanks," Akira nodded. He had been in this world for a while now, but he'd forgotten his own birthday—Hinata had remembered, and that touched him.
"Wait, hold on. Why celebrate early? Why not celebrate on your actual birthday?" Sasuke suddenly realized something was off.
"Well, duh, we'll be heading to Iwagakure in two days, remember?" Akira rolled his eyes.
"Wait, you... you've already mastered the Heavenly Transport Jutsu?" Sasuke was taken aback.
"Not fully, but after the past few days of effort, I'm almost there," Akira said with a confident nod.
Hearing this, Sasuke's face darkened, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly.
Effort these past few days? All Sasuke had seen was Akira goofing off. How was that effort?
"Alright then. I hope you can make it in time," Sasuke finally said, deciding to trust in Akira's reputation despite his doubts.
"Sure thing. You should get some rest too," Akira said, waving it off. They had talked enough; he was ready to call it a night.
Effort? Ha, every simulation cost ten million ryo. Of course, he was putting in the effort.
"Hey, wait..." Just as Akira turned to leave, Sasuke called out again.
Hearing him, Akira stopped, turning back with a questioning look.
"Akira, don't you think there's something special about you? It feels like your existence is unique," Sasuke said.
After this birthday celebration, it was clear to everyone in Konoha what Akira's relationship
with Hinata was.
"Hey, big bro, are you really not into Miss Hinata at all?" Boruto, perhaps the only one
struggling to accept the reality, asked Naruto.
"Not at all, not one bit," Naruto replied firmly.
What nonsense. Not only did he genuinely have no feelings for Hinata, but even if he did, she
was Akira's girlfriend now. How could he possibly try to take her away?
Regardless of Boruto's thoughts, Akira enjoyed a lively fifteenth birthday celebration.
Afterward, Akira and Sasuke agreed to set off for Iwagakure the next day.
They also informed Fugaku of their plan.
Fugaku was understandably surprised. A week ago, Akira had said Iwagakure would be under
attack. These past days, Akira hadn't made a move, so Fugaku thought he wasn't going.
But now, just as the time arrived, Akira suddenly said he would go?
One day-how could that possibly be enough time?
"Don't worry, the two of us will go together. We'll use the Heavenly Transport Jutsu to
teleport directly," Akira assured him.
"Heavenly Transport Jutsu? Isn't that Kumogakure's secret technique? And wasn't it meant for materials, not people?" Fugaku asked in astonishment.
Akira simply smiled at Fugaku's question, offering no further explanation.
After a night's rest, the next day, Akira performed another life simulation, holding off on
collecting the reward.
Then, he created a few Shadow Clones to assist in using the Heavenly Transport Jutsu.
Akira and Sasuke stood in the teleportation circle. Sasuke immediately summoned his Susanoo for protection.
The Heavenly Transport Jutsu was incredibly powerful. If one's body wasn't strong enough, it would disintegrate during the teleportation. So Sasuke used his Susanoo to shield himself. "Akira, aren't you going to do something?" Sasuke asked, puzzled to see Akira taking no similar precautions.
"Relax. My body's stronger than the Raikage's. I'll be fine," Akira replied with a confident
smile.
In the original story, even the Raikage could endure the effects of the Heavenly Transport Jutsu. There was no reason for someone like Akira, with his dragon-like physique, to struggle with it. With his Shadow Clones casting the jutsu, in a flash of light, Akira and Sasuke
vanished...
POWER STONE!!!
