There are many types of sensory techniques.
Shishou wanted to learn the most basic one.
That is, the Chakra Sensing Technique.
This sensory technique, apart from sensing the chakra around oneself by concentrating chakra, has no other functions.
It is far inferior to the Byakugan and Karin's Mind's Eye of the Kagura.
However, this sensory technique's range can be expanded through continuous practice, and it was practiced by both the Second and Fourth Hokage.
It is the most suitable technique to use in conjunction with the Flying Thunder God Technique for multi-line support operations.
Learning the Chakra Sensing Technique was also very simple for Shishou.
The only two difficulties are that the sensory technique requires extremely strong chakra control skills, which is still somewhat challenging for Shishou at this point.
Moreover, to master the sensory technique to the fullest, it requires years of practice, with no shortcuts.
"Sir, there are people at the Abyss of Gambling building requesting to see Mr. Lurigan and Ikari ."
The returning Takeko, after consulting with Mikoto, knocked on the door of Shishou's training room and spoke softly.
Looking for Mr. Lurigan?
He had only used the name Mr. Lurigan in the Land of Demons, and that as a mercenary.
So, it seemed likely that it was Konoha, Sand, or Rock requesting his assistance.
"Go notify Izumi and have her come to Mikoto's room."
Shishou stepped out of the training room and glanced at Takeko.
"Yes, sir."
Takeko answered respectfully and turned to leave.
Shishou used the Flying Thunder God Technique to teleport to Mikoto's room, interrupting her studies.
"Come, help me put on some makeup, the kind you did last time."
Shishou embraced her and smiled.
"Alright, Mr. Lurigan."
Uchiha Mikoto put down the scroll she was holding and teased.
After Shishou and Izumi returned from the Land of Demons, Mikoto had learned about their experiences there from Izumi, and naturally knew the aliases they used.
Once Mikoto had finished applying makeup for Izumi as well,
Shishou gave Mikoto a kiss on the cheek and, under her embarrassed and angry gaze, took Izumi to the Abyss of Gambling building.
To maintain her status as the main wife, Uchiha Mikoto didn't want to appear too intimate with Shishou in front of others.
However, her wishes didn't necessarily align with Shishou's.
At the Abyss of Gambling building, Shishou was led by Takeko to the top floor using a special elevator.
"Mr. Lurigan, this is a letter from the Third Hokage of Konoha. He has a task he wants to commission you for."
In the top-floor office of the Abyss of Gambling, after brief pleasantries, Mitarashi Anko handed over a sealed letter to Shishou from behind the desk.
Uchiha Izumi, with a cold expression, walked over, took the letter, and handed it to Shishou.
Due to the Uchiha clan's massacre, she didn't have much goodwill towards Konoha.
"I understand, Ms. Anko."
Shishou smiled as he took the letter and began to read it carefully.
He was quite fond of Anko,
mainly because of a certain beautiful scene he encountered when he infiltrated her house.
A few minutes later.
What the...
After reading the letter, Shishou's face was a mix of emotions.
They want me to investigate myself?
He hadn't expected the Third Hokage to come up with this idea...
Putting the letter down, Shishou was both amused and exasperated.
It turned out that the Third Hokage wanted Shishou, in a third-party capacity, to go to the Hidden Mist Village to investigate the information regarding the "Three-Tails Riot."
The Hokage hoped that Shishou would focus on investigating the identities of the Wood Release user and the Flying Thunder God user involved in the incident.
In the Third Hokage's view, Mr. Lurigan did not belong to the Five Great Ninja Villages and could freely enter and leave the Land of Water and the Hidden Mist Village.
Moreover, he was strong enough not to face any danger while investigating.
The Third Hokage offered a generous reward of five million ryo.
From the Hokage's perspective, Mr. Lurigan had no reason to refuse.
Furthermore, this was a casual assignment from the Hokage, who didn't expect Mr. Lurigan to bring back any valuable information.
The real intention was to use Mr. Lurigan to draw the attention of the one-eyed masked man and the Flying Thunder God user,
allowing Konoha to investigate from other angles.
So, if Mr. Lurigan agreed, that would be great.
If he didn't, it wouldn't matter.
Of course, the Hokage's only mistake, or rather his biggest mistake,
was not knowing that Mr. Lurigan and the Flying Thunder God user were the same person: Shishou.
That old fox of a Hokage.
He's using me as a pawn.
Understanding the Hokage's intentions, Shishou sighed inwardly.
"Alright, Ms. Anko."
"I accept the Third Hokage's request, but I have a condition."
Although aware of the Hokage's ulterior motives, Shishou decided to accept the task.
After all, he knew Uchiha Obito's identity and could easily fabricate something to report back.
However, he wasn't satisfied with the offered reward.
Money.
Shishou had plenty; he wanted something else.
"Mr. Lurigan, what are your conditions?"
"I will relay them to the Third Hokage."
Seeing that Shishou had agreed, Anko was pleased and immediately asked.
She didn't know what task the Third Hokage had assigned to Shishou, but it didn't hinder her eagerness to complete her mission.
"Thank you, Ms. Anko."
Shishou wrote down his conditions on a piece of paper and handed it to Anko.
"I'll take my leave now."
Putting away the paper, Mitarashi Anko stood up, preparing to leave.
"No need to rush, Ms. Anko. You must be exhausted from your journey from Konoha. Why not rest here for the night and depart tomorrow?"
Looking at Anko, Shishou clapped his hands.
"Sir."
Takeko walked into the office, approaching Shishou respectfully.
"Arrange the best room for Ms. Anko and give her a hundred tokens to unwind."
Seeing Takeko enter, Shishou made arrangements.
"Yes." Takeko responded and approached Anko respectfully: "Ms. Anko, please follow me."
Mitarashi Anko wanted to decline, but since Shishou had already made arrangements, she felt it would be impolite to refuse and followed Takeko.
"Why did you ask the Third Hokage for that?"
Once Anko left, Uchiha Izumi looked at Shishou with confusion.
"Hehe, Izumi, the ninja world isn't all about fighting and killing."
"I also want to use my strength to find an answer for peace in this world."
Looking at Izumi's cute face with baby fat, Shishou reached out to pinch her cheek, only to have her swat his hand away.
Smiling, Shishou began to explain his reasons to Uchiha Izumi.
Shishou hadn't asked the Third Hokage for any secret or forbidden techniques.
Of course, he also knew that
even if he asked, the Third Hokage would likely refuse.
He merely hoped the Third Hokage would agree to help him set up his own production factory and production line.
A fertilizer production line.
