Here is Chapter 9 of "Naruto: What Kind of Starter Pack is 13 Years Late?": "This mission is really troublesome." A few days later, in an inn in the Land of... Don’t miss it!

"This mission is really troublesome." A few days later, in an inn in the Land of Waves, Takemi sat on the edge of the bed, looking a little worried. Kakashi had gone to meet with the client, so Takemi naturally stayed behind. But looking at the Exclusive Mission on the panel, he felt a headache. He had accepted the mission. It was impossible not to be curious about the reward when encountering an exclusive mission for the first time. It's just that the target of this mission, if there were no surprises, was Obito. "Normally, I would encounter him later anyway. But how many years earlier is this?" He was very sensitive to time, after all, a [Beginner Reward] had held him up for thirteen years. No matter how generous the reward was, it was a little unbearable. "Maybe I can think of other ways." Takemi silently repeated. His desire for these rewards was now beyond ordinary, and perhaps this was the key to developing his bloodline. Kakashi's old buddy, Obito was full of treasures. Even at this stage, he had quite a few good things on him. If Takemi could get even one, it might accelerate his development. "If I could get an arm or something, that would be great!" "However, things still need to be done step by step. Let's go train first." Quickly suppressing his thoughts, Takemi got up and prepared to go out to train. Kakashi was still reliable. On the way to the Land of Waves, he had already taught Takemi Chidori. However, he also kept warning him that this jutsu required high-speed movement and could only be used more effectively when combined with the Sharingan. Otherwise, during the charge, it would very likely create an opportunity for the enemy and ultimately harm oneself. Takemi understood these things, but from the beginning, he had never thought of using the standard Chidori. His goal had always been the ultimate technique of the Sixth Hokage, Purple Electricity. "This place is pretty good." Walking on the street, Takemi couldn't help but tilt his head as he looked at the bustling crowd. However, he also knew that this place was one of the best places in the Land of Waves. Most of the Land of Waves was still similar to the village of Tazuna, the bridge-building expert. As he walked, he suddenly saw an alley filled with red lights, which immediately made him slow down. "Is this... Jiraiya's pleasure district?" Takemi blinked, his heart suddenly surging. He wondered if he should go in and take a look. Jiraiya was a 'negative example' for ninjas. To prove that Jiraiya is wrong, it seems that he can only experience his 'pleasure' and make an objective evaluation. "Using the Transformation Jutsu, I should be able to sneak in, right?" Takemi rubbed his chin, still hesitating whether to go in with a sightseeing mindset, but the next moment, he suddenly frowned. He sensed two powerful Chakra signatures faintly appearing not far away. The Ōtsutsuki bloodline also gave him a certain level of perception, which made him more sensitive. "Who is it?" Thinking to himself, he turned around as if nothing had happened. Then, he quickly glanced around before immediately lowering his head. But his gaze became somewhat strange, because he saw two individuals wearing black robes with red clouds on them. Moreover, his system flashed again at this moment. .... The next day, at the assembly point in the Land of Waves. "Hey, gather up, why are you ninja so unreliable?" A group of samurai dressed like farmers frowned as they looked at Kakashi and Takemi, who had arrived just in time. The leader unhappily said, "You're late again, and you're so flashy. Are you even a qualified ninja? And you cost so much money..." "First of all, we are all qualified ninja, certified by Konoha." These people's attitude made Takemi raise an eyebrow, but Kakashi remained calm in the face of such provocation. He said indifferently, "Secondly, we are not late, the time is just right to depart. Finally, the money you gave is not much. If you had more money, you could hire a better setup." "You..." Kakashi's words made these samurai present particularly unhappy, but Kakashi just smiled and took out a book from his ninja tool pouch. "Alright everyone, aren't we still on our way? We can set off." "Hmph, let's go." The leading samurai snorted, then waved his hand and announced the departure. The rest of the people immediately went to lift a palanquin, and the group officially set off. "Tch, what a grand display." Takemi glanced at the palanquin. It was completely covered, and the noble sitting inside never showed their face from beginning to end. "And these guys' attitude is really annoying." "We just do our job for the money, why bother with them so much?" Kakashi tilted his head and glanced at the samurai, then lowered his head and continued reading. "Besides, didn't you say you encountered two very dangerous individuals? If we are really that unlucky, then these people can help us." Last night, after he returned to the inn, Takemi told Kakashi everything in detail. Even though many things couldn't be explained too clearly, the two very dangerous ninja were enough to make Kakashi vigilant. "That's true, but relying on them probably won't be of much use." Takemi nodded, then quickly shook his head. "Kakashi-sensei, have you requested reinforcements from the village? Those two guys might be difficult for us to handle." Although he had only glanced at them in the crowd, he absolutely couldn't mistake the Akatsuki attire. As for who these two were... Damn it, no matter who they were, they were difficult to deal with. At least he felt they were really difficult to deal with right now. Just then... After some thought, he seemed to have remembered something. "A palanquin, samurai who look like farmers, how is this so similar to the mission Jūzō experienced with Itachi?" But if it was these two... Takemi suddenly had an idea and couldn't help but glance at Kakashi. He remembered that Itachi had instantly taken down Kakashi, even if it was due to Kakashi's insufficient understanding of the Mangekyo Sharingan. Wasn't it this incident that gave Kakashi Kamui three years later?! Thinking of this, Takemi's gaze changed slightly. He has to complete this mission, and he already had a plan. "Don't worry, nothing will happen." Seeing Takemi's silence, Kakashi said, "I will protect you, but speaking of which, how is your Lightning Release mastery?" "It's alright." After Takemi figured it out, a smile appeared on his face. "But I've also encountered some problems. After all, I can't use it like Kakashi-sensei, so I plan to put more effort into shape and nature transformation..." The two of them walked at the back, and as they walked, they also exchanged ideas. With Kakashi's knowledge of Lightning Release and the Ōtsutsuki bloodline, Takemi already had a clear understanding of 'Purple Electricity'. In his opinion, 'Purple Electricity' was similar to the Kumogakure's 'Black Lightning', both products of pushing shape and nature transformation to the extreme within a single element. In fact, Sasuke's 'Chidori Sharp Spear' could also be considered an attempt at shape transformation, but Sasuke, with the Sharingan, didn't need to go too far down this path. Kakashi, on the other hand, had lost the Sharingan, so he put in a lot of effort. His future use of this jutsu also perfectly illustrated Takemi's speculation. What he needed to do now was to make Kakashi understand his thinking. Whether he could help or not didn't matter, at least he needed to know how this jutsu came about. "That's a good idea, but it's very difficult." Kakashi rubbed his chin and gave his opinion, "It is said that even the Third Raikage only created a Prototype . If you actually complete it, you would be setting a precedent." "I already have some ideas..." Takemi smiled, but as soon as his voice fell, he suddenly frowned. Not only him, but Kakashi also looked up and stared ahead. At this moment, not far from them, two men wearing black robes with red clouds had already come into view. "Oh, there are two Konoha Ninja too?" "Kakashi-senpai, long time no see..."
