Naruto's Shadow Clone training method had a problem: once his Chakra was exhausted, the Nine-Tailed's Chakra would seize the opportunity to emerge, intending to break through the seal.
For this, Yamato needed to use Wood Release, which restrains Tailed Beasts, to suppress the Nine-Tailed's Chakra throughout the process.
However long Naruto trained each day, Yamato had to suppress it with Wood Release for the same duration, without a moment's slack.
But when Hawking came, it was different, because Hawking's arrival meant the Nine-Tailed had transferred to Hawking, and naturally, Yamato no longer needed to suppress it with Wood Release.
So during this period, every time Yamato saw Hawking appear, he was extremely happy.
"Hawking, you go explore on your own, I need to continue my training."
After summoning Hawking, Naruto greeted him and returned to his group of Shadow Clones.
He was now determined to train and improve his strength, striving to rescue Sasuke before Orochimaru could take over Sasuke's body.
"Don't mind me, I'll go wander around the Village."
Hawking nodded and flew towards Konoha Village using Bukujutsu.
After Hawking flew away, Yamato slumped to the ground:
"One hour is really too short; if it could be longer, I'd be more relaxed."
"Longer wouldn't necessarily be a good thing."
Kakashi murmured upon hearing this.
He had already learned about Hawking's situation while he was hospitalized.
Currently, the Nine-Tailed only disappearing for an hour each day was something Konoha's higher-ups could barely accept; if it disappeared for seven or eight hours a day, they wouldn't be able to sit still.
Especially since the Akatsuki Organization was constantly collecting Tailed Beasts, the importance of Tailed Beasts went without saying.
At that point, Danzo and other Advisors might take action against Hawking, forcibly researching his body to figure out what was going on.
"You're right, Hawking is a good guy, and this arrangement is fine."
Yamato nodded in agreement.
Having come from Root, he was very familiar with the dark side of the Village and understood Danzo, the leader of Root, very well.
After spending time together, he had a good impression of Hawking and didn't want anything to happen to him.
On the other side, after a high-speed flight, Hawking quickly arrived at the entrance of Konoha Village, greeted Izumo Kamizuki and Kotetsu Hagane, the two Konoha gate guards, and walked in.
After that, he wandered around the Village as usual.
Given his current situation, most Ninjutsu in this World no longer impressed him.
Ninjutsu like Wind Release, Water Release, and Fire Release inflicted far less damage than ki blasts and Kamehameha, even with nature transformation added, they were still just so-so.
Moreover, he inherited the same Wind Release as Naruto, and developing other attributes would definitely be very time-consuming.
So his goal was Ninjutsu with special abilities.
For example, the Flying Thunder God Technique, which allows for spatial marking and then instantaneous movement; Sealing Technique, which can seal all sorts of miscellaneous things; and Edo Tensei, which can revive people, and so on.
However, these Ninjutsu were all advanced Konoha Ninjutsu, not something ordinary people were qualified to learn.
Oh, and there was also the Eight Gates, which involves forcing open the body's Eight Gates with Chakra, greatly enhancing physical strength and Chakra, which would also be very useful for him.
If there was a chance later, he might be able to get Nagato's Rinnegan; the Six Paths of Rinnegan were quite good, and one of them seemed to be able to read soul memories, which would be perfect for reading Lord Voldemort's soul.
If his combat power surpassed Ōtsutsuki Kaguya, one day he could also blast the moon with a Kamehameha, release Ōtsutsuki Kaguya, and directly excavate her Nine Tomoe Rinnegan to put on himself.
"How can I reasonably obtain Ninjutsu from Tsunade?"
Whether it was Mangekyo, Rinnegan, or Nine Tomoe Rinnegan, none of them were things he could consider now; for now, he could only consider the existing Ninjutsu in Konoha.
It wasn't that he couldn't defeat them, but an hour wasn't enough time for him to find the owners of these eyes.
He could only wait until Naruto encountered them one day and summoned him; then he would have a chance to take them.
Fortunately, this time wouldn't be too long; judging by the current timeline, the final battle shouldn't be more than half a year away.
"Logically speaking, there should be trouble at the Fire Temple, right?"
Walking on the streets of Konoha, Hawking carefully recalled his past life's memories; if he remembered correctly, it was shortly after Naruto asked Asuma about Wind Release that the Fire Temple was massacred by the Immortal Duo.
Then Asuma led people to capture the Immortal Duo, losing his life to Hidan, leaving Yuhi and their unborn child.
Naruto could now use Wind Release to split waterfalls and was trying to integrate Wind Release into the Rasengan to create an even more powerful Ninjutsu, Wind Release: Rasengan Shuriken.
So Asuma's death should be in these few days.
Asuma, as the Third Hokage's son, the current leader of the Sarutobi clan, and one of Konoha's few elite Jonin, his life should be worth a good Ninjutsu.
"It's about time to reel in the net."
Regarding Asuma, he had actually laid the groundwork during their first meeting.
After wandering around Konoha Village for a bit, he soon found Asuma Sarutobi on a street.
At this time, Asuma and Yuhi were sweetly strolling together.
"Good afternoon, Asuma, Yuhi."
Seeing Hawking appear in front of them, Asuma and Yuhi smiled and replied.
This Hawking was said to be a summoned person residing on Mount Myōboku, who unexpectedly formed a summoning contract with Naruto and could be summoned by Naruto from Mount Myōboku for an hour each day.
During this time, because he often wandered around Konoha, many Ninja recognized him.
Asuma and Yuhi also met Hawking through Naruto's introduction, and at their first meeting, Hawking gave them a very beautiful baby crib, which made them a bit embarrassed at the time.
Although everyone knew they were in love, they weren't married yet, so suddenly receiving a baby crib and being told they had the 'early birth of a noble child' omen was quite unexpected.
However, their overall impression of Hawking was still very good.
"Oh, Yuhi, are you pregnant? I told you two had the 'early birth of a noble child' omen, but you didn't believe me."
Hawking looked Yuhi up and down, then said something that almost made Asuma jump on the spot.
"What, Yuhi, you're pregnant?"
"Yes, I only confirmed it a few days ago, and I was planning to tell you at an appropriate time."
Yuhi's face immediately flushed, and she nodded shyly.
Upon hearing this, Asuma's face immediately showed extreme joy, and he hugged Yuhi, spinning her around in the middle of the street.
However, his happiness didn't last long before Hawking's next sentence stunned him on the spot:
"Asuma, I see a dark omen on your forehead; a death tribulation will soon entangle you. If you can't handle it well, you might not be able to see your newborn child."
