Naruto: The Wind Calamity - Chapter 553: Boredom

Fujin continued analyzing, 'That said, even though there are issues, there is no question that both those techniques are invaluable. It's just that Orochimaru became too obsessed with them.

If he had waited until he grew old to change his body, then the issue of his new body not being as strong as his real body would have been a moot point.

Similarly, if, instead of creating and applying his curse seal on dozens of ninjas, he had applied curse seals on only a couple of people, then his soul wouldn't have been divided so many times and perhaps he might not have been as susceptible to Genjutsu as he currently is. Unless the very act of dividing the soul causes him to be more susceptible to Genjutsu.

I will need some more information on these two techniques to be able to properly analyze their flaws. Unfortunately, reading Orochimaru's memories is impossible at this point. Even with my Flying Thunder God jutsu, I can't be sure that I'll be able to capture or kill his main body.

Unlike others, whom I can track down with the Flying Thunder God mark, Orochimaru might be able to get rid of that mark by shedding his skin. Fortunately, there is someone else who might have a lot of information on these two techniques.

That said, I need to improve my knowledge about Souls first. Without a firm base, it won't help me even if I have information. The Spirit Transformation jutsu should be more than enough to help me with that.'

Fujin stretched his body. The effect of the soldier pill was about to run out and he could feel some tiredness. He let out a yawn and thought, 'Oh well, no point in getting too worked up for this. Once the range of my Flying Thunder God jutsu increases, I'll be the toughest ninja to kill after Obito and Orochimaru. And, I'm only sixteen years old. I have no need to go Orochimaru's way. At least not for another half a century.

The best-case scenario would be if I could increase the lifespan of this body itself and make it infinitely more, like the Otsutsuki clan. Though it's difficult to say how that can be done… I wonder if Hagoromo's body would have been immortal if he hadn't released the Ten Tails and divided it into 9 parts. Or did he divide it because his body was growing old and he understood that his body wouldn't live for long?

Sigh, so many questions and so few answers. I wonder how many mysteries I'll be able to solve…'

Filled with such thoughts, Fujin fell asleep. The next day, he got up quite late despite sleeping early. Due to the backlash of the soldier pill, he wouldn't be training that day. He freshened up and wondered what he should be doing for the day.

He stood lazily on his balcony and looked at the construction work that was happening around his house. He thought, 'Most of the work is already done. Hiruzen will start moving those kids here soon. Sigh, even more work. I'm kind of bored.

Now that I think about it, I haven't done anything fun lately. It has just been training and work. Though I occasionally mess with Hiruzen and Shikaku, I haven't had too many opportunities to mess much with them. Now, what should I do for some entertainment today?'

Fujin thought for a while. Several ideas appeared in his mind but none seemed fun enough. He let out a sigh and thought, 'There's not much I can do… Though I can think of some pranks using Wind, it'll be more of an annoyance rather than fun pranks for anyone I target… Not to mention, considering my strength, pranking civilians, or even ninjas, might not be that fun.

I could prank Naruto as his reactions are fun to see, but the poor guy might get scarred for life if I overdo it. I guess I shouldn't have destroyed Root. If they still existed outside that little headquarters, I could have targeted them and enjoyed the drama and chaos that would follow…

If it wouldn't have impacted the future, I could have considered starting a couple of wars to give Hiruzen and Shikaku a headache. Those two lucked out due to how considerate I am. Oh well...'

Fujin let out another sigh and muttered to himself, 'Once the effects of Suna and Oto's attack are dealt with, I'll leave the village temporarily and tour the world with Kaito. Even though I was excited to be reborn in this world, the fear of the dangers here has kept me tense all the time.

However, there isn't much that I need to fear with my current strength. An adventure should help me relax my nerves. It might also give me new ideas on how I can keep becoming stronger and might help me uncover more secrets in this world. Perhaps I could force some of those beasts in the sea to become my summons. That way, I will have summons for both Shiden and Akuro identities.'

Since he couldn't think of anything fun to do, Fujin decided to give his body some well-deserved rest. Unknown to Fujin, while he couldn't think of anything entertaining to do, some entertainment visited his home.

Half an hour later, the bell rang. Fujin looked towards the direction of his door and thought, 'As expected. If this was my previous world, I would have wondered whether he set up a camera somewhere to see whether I was home or not… Doesn't he have his squad to have fun now? Kakashi is too lax!'

Despite his thoughts, Fujin wasn't displeased to see Naruto. He opened the door while thinking, 'Oh well, even though I wasn't planning on using him for pranks, I can't say no since he is already here. Hehe.'

Fujin opened the door and an excited Naruto exclaimed, "Fujin, you are back!"

Fujin chuckled and said, "Yeah, I returned last night. Come on in."

Naruto immediately entered. He began talking about his new squad and updated Fujin on the new events happening in his life. At one point, he exclaimed, "Man, I thought I would do something cool after becoming a ninja. But Grandpa Hokage only makes us run after cats and dogs and makes us do menial jobs. This is totally not what I imagined!"

Fujin chuckled as some memories surfaced. He thought, 'Considering that every ninja went through that, there is no way this tradition is changing.'

He said, "Don't worry Naruto, it gets better."

Naruto looked at him and asked, "Really?"

Fujin nodded and said, "Yes. You'll only have to do such missions for a couple of years. Then Grandpa Hokage will assign you missions where you can eliminate bad bandits and save innocent people."

Naruto's eyes widened in horror. He exclaimed loudly, "A COUPLE OF YEARS???"

He looked down with his head in his hands and muttered, "I will have to chase cats and dogs, babysit kids and pull out weeds for 2 years?"

Fujin just grinned as he saw Naruto experiencing a nightmare in the middle of the day! He thought, 'I hadn't thought of this earlier. If Hiruzen or Tsunade do assign me a squad, it might be fun to make them do rank D missions for a couple of years. Hmm, no, make that three!

In three years, I'll train them to be at least as strong as Jounins, if not Elite Jounins, but only let them do rank D missions. Then I'll send that Jounin level squad into the Chunin exams. That would be a sight to see, haha!'

Naruto didn't know about Fujin's thoughts. If he did, he would thank the gods that he wasn't a part of his squad. When Naruto finally recovered from the horrendous news, he looked at Fujin and asked, "Can you teach me a strong Wind jutsu? Sasuke knows the Fireball jutsu and I don't want to lose to him!"

Fujin tilted his head and asked, "You said your sensei is Kakashi, right?"

Naruto nodded.

Fujin asked again, "Hatake Kakashi?"

Naruto became confused but nodded again.

Fujin showed a deadpan expression and asked, "Why are you asking me to teach you jutsus then?"

Naruto became even more confused and asked, "What do you mean?"

Fujin sighed and asked, "Did you not do any research on him? Hatake Kakashi is a ninja famous throughout the world for knowing more than a thousand jutsus!"

Naruto's eyes widened in shock! He exclaimed, "Th… Thou… A THOUSAND?"

Fujin showed a tired expression and sighed. He looked at Naruto and asked, "You didn't know that?"

Opposite to his expression, Fujin's thoughts were very cheerful. He thought, 'I finally have an extremely entertaining idea!'
