Indeed, just as The Devil had mentioned.
Yu has now reached the Jonin level of Chakra, and can obtain three additional Devil Laws from Devil. However, if Yu successfully elevates his Chakra to the Kage level, he can acquire the fourth Devil Law.
By using the abilities of the Thread Fruit to manipulate four puppets with Devil Fruit powers, Yu is fully confident in defeating any Kage-level in the world of ninja.
"It's been two months since leaving Konoha... Although there's been no movement from the Sand."
"But I'm sure Sarutobi Sensei and the three Elders in Konoha are getting anxious... It's time to go back."
With that in mind, Yu quickly packed his belongings, then directly set fire to the entire house, erasing all traces related to himself here, and set out on the road back to Konoha.
During this time, Yu has also kept an eye on the news from the Hidden Sand.
Two months ago, a mysterious young man infiltrated the Hidden Sand Village, attempted to assassinate the Fourth Kazekage Rasa and Sand elder Chiyo but failed, killed a large number of Sand shinobi, and stole confidential scrolls from Sand. The news of subsequently annihilating the Sand pursuit forces spread like wildfire in the Wind Country.
Almost all the Sand ninjas are aware of this incident, but it has not spread to other ninja villages because the Sand's higher-ups have tightly suppressed it.
After all, Sand is one of the five great ninja villages.
The fact that a seven or eight-year-old boy infiltrated Sand, successfully stole confidential scrolls, and annihilated the elite ninja pursuit force sent by Sand, the higher-ups of Sand would never let such news spread.
Having just suffered significant damage during the Great Ninja War, Sand, through this incident, is now even more vulnerable. If the news were to spread, it would undoubtedly attract the attention of neighboring enemy nations, causing new turmoil in the ninja world.
...
"Konoha, I'm back..."
A few days later, early in the morning, the gates of the Konoha Ninja Village welcomed a special guest.
Looking at the two massive wooden gates of Konoha in front of him, still exuding that majestic aura, Yu couldn't help but feel a strange sensation in his heart.
Although he is a Transmigrator, facing this place where he has lived for several years, after all, the people and events he cares about are all within this small village, and Yu inevitably carries some emotions with him.
"Please show your identification."
Although the forehead protector on Yu has already indicated that he is a ninja from the village, the two Chunin guarding the gate still stopped him according to routine procedures.
"Here is my identification."
Yu took out an identification booklet from his person and handed it to the Chunin at the gate.
This narrative has been unlawfully taken from Royal Road. If you see it on Amazon, please report it.
"Oh, it's Yakushi Yu, a Special Jonin. I apologize for any offense. Please go ahead!"
After inspecting Yu's identification, the gate Chunin immediately straightened up and politely spoke.
"Oh, thank you."
Without paying further attention to the two Chunin, Yu stepped through the gates of Konoha.
As soon as he entered, he saw the bustling crowd and vibrant shops inside, with laughter and haggling filling the air.
Having entered the village, Yu didn't notice that the two Chunin guarding the gate had already started an intense discussion.
"Is that him?"
One Chunin asked with curiosity.
"Of course, it's him! Have you ever seen a Special Jonin younger than him?"
"The youngest Special Jonin in Konoha's history, a rare genius in the ninja world! When did he leave the village? How come I didn't know?"
The previous Chunin asked in confusion.
"Hey! You don't know this? The Hokage and several Elders from Konoha sent him out to carry out an S-rank classified mission!"
"But judging by the looks of it... I wonder if he has successfully completed the mission."
Another Chunin said with a touch of envy.
"No way... an S-rank mission?!"
"I heard he's only seven years old? How can there be such a big difference among ninjas of the same age?!"
The previous Chunin said in amazement.
Unaware of the discussion behind him, Yu has already stepped into the bustling and familiar streets of Konoha.
After the espionage mission in the Wind Country's Hidden Sand Village, facing Kage-level opponents and battles against elite ninja from the Sand pursuit force, Yu's aura has become even more refined.
Dazzling white hair, paired with a black ninja tracksuit, and a perfect face that attracted the attention of passersby on the street.
"Never mind, Sarutobi Sensei and the others are probably getting impatient..."
"I should report this mission to the Hokage's office first..."
Originally, Yu thought about going back to the Konoha orphanage to see the director, Yakushi Nono, and other friends, but he quickly reconsidered, prioritizing the task at hand.
So, Yu directly entered a nearby forest path, heading towards the direction of the Hokage's office.
About five minutes later.
Just as he walked along the deserted forest path, Yu's Observation Haki suddenly sensed danger approaching.
"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!!"
Several sharp sounds of breaking air echoed, and five or six shurikens were directly shot toward Yu's back.
Surprisingly, as if he had eyes on his back, Yu's body swayed lightly, avoiding all the shuriken attacks.
"Clang!"
Although amazed at Yu's reaction speed, a sharp flash of a blade passed through the air.
Only to see a Ninja with a patterned mask on his face had already arrived behind Yu, wielding an extremely sharp katana and thrusting it mercilessly towards Yu's back!
"Quite bold, aren't you..."
"Although I don't know why you're trying to assassinate me..."
Observation Haki clearly captured the attack from behind, and a hint of disdain curled up at the corner of Yu's mouth.
Color of Arms: Hardening!
In the surprised gaze of the Ninja behind him, Yu's left hand was instantly covered with a layer of black substance. With a clang, he actually caught the incredibly sharp and poison-infused katana with his bare hand!
"But this covert assassination technique..."
"It seems you haven't improved at all... Root."
Staring at the Ninja in front of him with the patterned mask, Yu's amber eyes gently narrowed, and the gaze he emitted was chilling.
"Bang!"
As the words fell, the Ninja in front of him had an incredulous look in his eyes.
Only to see Yu, with his left hand covered in Armament Haki, exerting force, actually crushed the katana he had caught with his bare hands!
"You actually broke my sword with your bare hands..."
Seeing his weapon being crushed by Yu's bare hands, the Root organization Ninja had barely reacted from his shock before widening his eyes again.
"What is this?!"
In the depths of his consciousness, there seemed to be a soul-shaking roar resembling a dragon's roar.
In the Root organization Ninja's dilated pupils, Yu raised the jet-black palm covered in Armament Haki.
Dragon Claw!
The index and middle fingers of his right hand bent and closed, the gap between the ring finger and middle finger separated, the ring finger and pinky finger bent and closed, and the thumb slightly bent—forming the posture of a three-fingered dragon claw. With a force capable of tearing everything apart, he fiercely struck towards him!
