Chapter 52: My Son Has the potential to become Hokage
“Did you talk about this to anyone else?”
After smiling, Shibi Aburame’s expression became solemn. Matters concerning the rise of the Aburame clan required him to be extremely cautious.
“No,” Shinho Aburame shook his head and replied, “You’re the only one to know other than me.”
“That’s good.”
Shibi Aburame exhaled a breath and said, “This matter must never be disclosed to outsiders, especially the ANBU and Root.”
Shinho Aburame thought to himself, “Indeed.”
His father was even more cautious than he was. After all, he had the entire Aburame clan behind him.
“I plan to use it on Shino first,” Shinho Aburame adjusted his sunglasses and said, “For the remaining candidates, Dad will handle the selection.”
“That definitely needs careful consideration,” Shibi Aburame fell into deep thought. He wanted all the clan’s ninjas to be able to use it, but doing so would prematurely expose their abilities, which wasn’t ideal.
Tsunade-sama could protect Shinho Aburame, but the rest were another story. Shibi Aburame quickly made a decision. They would only use it within a very limited scope. Once Shinho Aburame became strong enough, they could consider expanding its use.
“Dad, there’s something I need your help with.”
Shinho Aburame leaned forward and said, “This and that, such and such.”
He was referring to the matter of Aoi Rokusho.
“Did Tsunade-sama tell you?”
Shibi Aburame looked somewhat puzzled and asked. This was indeed a valid reason. Shinho thought to himself. After all, Shibi Aburame wouldn’t directly ask Tsunade-sama. Even if he were exposed, it wouldn’t matter; at worst, she could punish him a few times as compensation.
Shinho Aburame nodded.
“I’ll send someone to monitor him.”
Shibi Aburame immediately stood up to make arrangements.
Shinho Aburame left the room and looked towards Shino Aburame in the courtyard. The Black Boar Gu could be used by others. But unlike the original story, it was granted by the system and wouldn’t change ownership. In other words, Shinho Aburame remained its master and could reclaim it at any time.
“Shino.”
Shinho Aburame called out.
“What is it?”
Shino Aburame walked up to him.
“Don’t resist.”
Shinho Aburame took out the Black Boar Gu. He infused his primeval essence into it, and it directly surged towards Shino Aburame’s dantian area.
“What is this?” Shino Aburame asked somewhat unnaturally. Any ninja forcing a foreign object into their body would feel awkward.
“What do you feel?” Shinho Aburame asked. From his own experience, the Black Boar Gu fully activates after three days. But Shino Aburame didn’t have a primeval aperture, so he couldn’t make any definite conclusions.
“Feel?”
Shino Aburame shook his head and said, “I don’t feel any different.”
“Strike that tree with all your might,” Shinho Aburame said. Shino Aburame looked at him, confused, but without explanation, he could only comply.
Intentional Punch!
His fist collided with the tree trunk. Shino Aburame’s originally calm expression became stiff and shocked. Strength surged out from his fist that shook the tree. Shino had never felt so wonderful!
“This matter must not be told to anyone,” Shinho Aburame glanced at the swaying tree and said.
“Yes!” Shino Aburame excitedly replied. The feeling of getting stronger without any reason was simply too exhilarating.
“I’ll see you tomorrow.”
Shinho Aburame waved his hand and walked towards the room. Shino Aburame hesitated to speak. He actually had many questions, but Shinho Aburame didn’t give him the chance. He was becoming increasingly mysterious. Shino Aburame looked at his own fist and smiled. No matter what, it was still quite good for him.
Thursday Afternoon.
“Young ninjas aspirants, tomorrow is the Chunin Exams, so we’ll be having a day off,” Iruka Umino smiled and said. “I suggest you all watch the matches if you have free time; it will be beneficial for you.”
After saying that, he turned and left the classroom.
“Shinho-kun!”
Ino Yamanaka ran over quickly. She glanced at Naruto Uzumaki and Hinata Hyuga and smiled slightly. After all, she managed to get ahead of them.
“Shinho-kun, are you going to watch the matches tomorrow?” Ino Yamanaka asked with anticipation. Her eyes were bright, shining like gems. Hinata Hyuga in the distance looked somewhat disappointed.
“Sorry, I have something else to do,” Shinho Aburame declined.
“Huh?” Ino Yamanaka pressed her lips together and said, “That’s a pity.”
The biggest pity was that she couldn’t watch the matches with Shinho Aburame. She had planned to buy some fries or something, sit in the spectator seats, eat while chatting to strengthen their bond.
Shinho Aburame returned home, without much fanfare.
“They plan to make their move tomorrow at nine in the morning,” Shibi Aburame felt somewhat reflective. He truly didn’t expect that a Chunin and a Genin would dare to steal the Sealing Scroll and Raijin’s Sword.
“That’s alright,” Shinho Aburame calmly said, “We just need to wait.”
“Can they even succeed?” Shibi Aburame looked puzzled.
“With their strength, they will definitely be discovered by the ANBU,” Shibi Aburame puzzled, said.
“Not likely,” Shinho Aburame paused and said, “But I do hope they succeed.”
Shibi Aburame couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows. Are they so sharp? He already understood Shinho Aburame’s intentions. If they succeeded, there would be reasons—or rather, it would be easy—to obtain the Sealing Scroll and Raijin’s Sword.
“Morinoida’s older brother is Morino Ibiki,” Shinho Aburame added.
“You can have him owe you a favor,” Shinho Aburame added. Since it was already exposed, they might as well go all out, to reap the most benefits.
Although being six years old and so mature was shockingly unusual, there were even more outrageous characters like Itachi Uchiha and Kakashi Hatake. The shocking talent of Itachi Uchiha and Kakashi Hatake was now serving as a protective cover for Shinho’s own maturity. Shibi Aburame didn’t feel anything wrong about his son’s talent at all. He looked at Shinho Aburame and couldn’t help but show a proud smile.
