Naruto: Different Perks

Chapter 144: 144



"Hmm?"

Reaching the centre, Kazutora was about to enter, but he sensed some familiar chakras rushing in their direction.

"Hmm?" Izumi also noticed them, and she looked in the direction with a flicker in her eyes.

"Do you think?" She asked and saw Kazutora shaking his head. They both arrived at the same conclusion since they could sense where they were from the chakra movement.

"Don't know, maybe Naruto sent them, or they might have a mission here," Kazutora said with a flicker in his eyes, and Izumi nodded at his words. They entered in the center, and Kazutora presented a token from Naruto, allowing them to explore without worry or inconvenience.

"Please wait for a moment, I will go and call the Higher-up here."

Kazutora and Izumi nodded at him. They waited for the employee to call someone, and while they were waiting, the door opened again.

"Eh? We meet them again?"

Chocho exclaimed when she looked at two people they had met before, but then her expression changed, and she turned her head away. Shikadai looked at Moegi, who had no change in her expression, and she walked to the counter with a scroll in her hand.

'On purpose?' He thought with a curious look on his face, but he made sure to not be obvious while looking at them.

"Mission," Moegi said to the man at the counter, and he took the scroll. After reading the scroll, he nodded at her and said, "Akita-San should be coming. You can talk with her more."

Moegi nodded at him and saw him leaving for somewhere. She looked at her team and saw them sneaking glances in the direction of two VIPs. A sigh escaped her lips, and she wondered why her team didn't listen to her orders and acted on their own.

Kazutora and Izumi could feel their glances, but they ignored them. Now, they were sure that Naruto had sent him, but it shouldn't be to disturb them. Kazutora understood that it was to make sure that others wouldn't disturb them, and get the things they needed.

"Now that I see, he is really handsome." Chocho said to Shikadai and Inojin, and she heard Inojin replying, "They are on a date,"

"Huh? Hah!" Chocho exclaimed as she remembered the words and all the thoughts in her mind had disappeared before she could even say anything. Moegi rolled her eyes at Chocho's actions, but she agreed with Chocho's words.

After all, not only them but others were also sneaking glances at Kazutora. Not only him, but they were looking at Izumi, and since they were together, no one came to talk or bother them.

After some moments, Akita walked outside. Before she could go to others, Moegi walked to her and whispered some words to her. Akita's eyes widened at her words, and a look of understanding appeared on her face.

She turned her eyes and looked at the two VIPs she had to take care of, and she was a bit stunned because Naruto's orders were to not stop them, no matter what they did.

'Even the important tools and their results. If they want to see it, let them.' Akita thought of Naruto's words, relayed to her by Moegi, and she was curious about their identities. After all, not everyone could know the secrets in the centre, and she was sure that only someone who had the authority of the Elders could see them.

"Hello, I am Akita Inuzuka, a member of the Scientific Ninja Weapons Team. Welcome to Scientific Ninja Tool Research Lab," Akita said as she appeared in front of Kazutora and Izumi. She greeted with a polite face while keeping an eye on their movements and how they reacted. Akita noticed that she couldn't smell any type of scent on them, and she wondered why it was that way,

Kazutora nodded at her and replied, "Hello, I am Kazutora, and she is my wife, Izumi. Did Naruto inform you about us?"

Izumi nodded at Akita too, and they looked at Akita, who was a bit surprised as she heard the words. After all, they looked to be at similar age as hers and they were already married. Besides, there was a stark difference between their appearance and Akira noticed that they felt a bit unique.

"Yes," Akita said after thinking for a moment. "Hokage-Sama asked me to show you around and answer any questions you have." She wondered how they knew about the orders. Akita was also shocked that Kazutora called Hokage by his name, and from the tone, she could feel that they were familiar with each other.

Kazutora nodded at her and looked at Moegi's group. Their expressions changed when they saw him looking at them, but Kazutora shook his head and looked away a moment later. He didn't mention anything about mission, or their presence and decided to ignore them. Moegi's expression changed at his reaction, and she wondered if they knew about the mission.

"Should I explain about the center, or would you like to look around first?" Akita asked as she looked at Kazutora and saw him looking at Izumi. Izumi shrugged in response, and they decided to look around first and then talk.

While travelling around, Kazutora looked at the scientific tools explained by Akita, and he was more curious about the machinations, items used, and coding or programs coded in them.

'There are some seals used in it, but more focus is on metals and technological aspects.'

Kazutora thought with a thoughtful look, and he looked at Akita.

"What about the books on scientific tools? Like how you developed them." Kazutora asked her instead of thinking more, and Akita looked at him. She thought of Hokage's orders, and in the end, she decided to show them and said, "I will take you there."

Izumi looked at Kazutora with a flicker in her eyes, and she asked, "Do you want to try it?"

"Yeah, I am a bit curious about scientific ninja tools since they focus on the technology aspect, and I want to see how different it is from Fuinjutsu and its applications," Kazutora replied with a thoughtful gaze, and Akita also heard him since he didn't lower his voice.

'Fuinjutsu? A Fuinjutsu Master or a researcher? Konoha or another village? They must be really important since Hokage-Sama allowed everything.'

Akita thought with a curious look, and she was looking forward to their reactions since not many like the scientific ninja tools and focus on traditional ninjutsu.

Kazutora looked at the training ground as he followed Akita and looked at them using the tools. He stared at the man who was using a device, and even though he said everything, he couldn't hear anything.

'Hmm? Sound?' Kazutora stopped with a curious look, and he looked at the tool he was using.

"That tool is known as Shijima and negates sound by colliding specific phases of sound waves, the opposite principle of resonance. As it is large and currently negates all sound, its practical applications are limited."

Akita explained when she noticed him stopping, and Kazutora nodded at her.

"Sound wave application, huh! Generating the waves that counter the sound waves, preventing them from reaching to others. It's like the silence seals," Kazutora said while creating a seal with his hand, and Akita was amazed when she noticed the sound cutting off in between as he talked.

'So fast. He made seals with his chakra directly, and so quickly.' Akita thought as she stared at him and saw Kazutora staring at the device.

'Sound cancelling, huh! I need to brush up on everything before even trying to create something. The principles are fixed, but applications are endless. It can be used as a good torture device,' Kazutora thought with various applications in his mind, and Izumi beside him yawned.

She noticed that she didn't have much interest after seeing them, and she looked around.

"Hmm?" A hum escaped her lips as she stared at the light sabre-like tool, and her eyes flickered.

"That's Chakra Blade, an amplification types scientific ninja tool, that uses the wielder's chakra to emit a Chakra Blade. As a prototype, its high chakra consumption rate renders it too impractical to use." Akita explained when she noticed Izumi's interest in the chakra tool, and Izumi nodded at her.

"Can I go and try it?" Izumi asked with a curious look, and Akira nodded a moment later. She wondered if she should talk about heavy chakra usage in the tool, but she decided to not mention again and test them a bit. Izumi followed Akita inside the testing ground, and Kazutora stared at them with an interested gaze. He wondered what interested Izumi since she had control over Susanoo and could create a chakra construct blade anytime.

Not only that, but with her Shadow manipulation, she could create a dark chakra blade. While Izumi tested the tool, Kazutora split two clones who went to look around and find the books section.

He had noticed that Izumi wasn't much interested, and he also just wanted to know and read books.

"Hmm?" A hum escaped his lips when he noticed Kaguya calling him, and he disappeared from the place after creating another body.

"What happened?" Kazutora asked, appearing beside Kaguya, and he noticed that they were in a different dimension. His eyes fell on the giant moon in the sky, and he felt some presence in it.

"Oh? This world's Kaguya?"
