Chapter 17 Leaving the Village
No one knows the importance of ninjutsu as a resource better than the ninja clan.
To monopolize ninjutsu is to monopolize books and knowledge.
The ninja clan is a family that inherits ninjutsu.
For example, the pig-deer butterfly.
"What do you want to do with it?" Nara Shikakichi easily saw through the deeper meaning of Lu Nei's words.
It not only represents that Orochimaru is willing to endorse the ownership of this ninjutsu, but also that Luna has his own plans for this jutsu.
"The blood-moving suit is very suitable for the Akimichi clan." Lu Nie said.
"It is indeed suitable." Nara Shikaji thought about it in his mind and nodded seriously.
The Akimichi clan's multiplication technique also causes considerable harm and burden to the human body, not to mention the three-colored secret pill, an amplification pill specially made for Akimichi's physique.
The Akimichi clan's secret ninjutsu of changing the nature of Yang attributes, coupled with their appetite that accumulates fat and energy in the body, are indeed more suitable for blood-moving suits than other ninjas.
Even thinking the other way around, the Static Blood Armor is also very suitable for the Nara clan. With the defensive effect of the Static Blood Armor, the Nara clan's shadow mystical arts such as Shadow Imitation will be given stronger lethality.
The mimicry technique controls the enemy, then takes out the kunai and cuts the throat. With the protection of the Static Blood Suit, the Nara clan will send the controlled enemy away at very little cost, or even at no cost.
"Then give this ninjutsu to them as a ninjutsu shared by the three clans." Lu Nie also pulled the Yamanaka clan in. Although the Yamanaka clan was famous for its auxiliary ninjutsu, there might not be many people who would practice it.
A ninja clan with an orderly inheritance will not easily change its ways or change its training methods. For example, as a veteran family that joined when the village was founded, if necessary, would the Ino-Shika-Chou family lack channels and methods to obtain high-end ninjutsu?
But why do these esoteric ninjutsu families still focus on their own family's secret ninjutsu?
Because this is a broad road paved by predecessors, and it is the most suitable ninjutsu system for their bodies. They do not need to ask for it from the outside, as their internal body is enough to satisfy them.
A powerful ninja is one who has enhanced one of his or her outstanding characteristics to the extreme.
Just like a bloodline ninja, his bloodline must be the main thing.
This makes families like the Ino-Shika-Cho family, which have been passed down for at least hundreds of years, very cautious about learning new ninjutsu. Even if a ninjutsu is very suitable, they will continue to spend time verifying it bit by bit, and only after final confirmation will it be officially included in the family's ninjutsu training system.
Otherwise it is up to each individual to decide whether to study or not.
Lu Nie was also very clear that even if this technique was given to the Akimichi and Yamanaka clan, for various reasons, it would either be shelved or only a few people would read and practice it for the time being.
Unless it becomes as important as the signature secret ninjutsu of each family one day, maybe it can really spread. But no matter what, as long as someone practices it, it can bring recognition to Lu Nie.
Nara Shikaji collected all three ninjutsu scrolls. Taking out any one of the three scrolls could become the foundation for a ninja to rise and establish a small ninja clan.
"Also, in two days, Sensei Orochimaru will be taking Red Bean and me out of the village to carry out a mission." Lu Nie mentioned this to Lu Ji when he went back to his room to rest.
Nara Shikakichi waved his hands weakly, indicating that he understood. This kind of mission out of the village is a must for a ninja, and with Orochimaru accompanying him, he was not worried about Shikaki's safety.
Time flies by quickly.
After Orochimaru received a B-level mission, he left the village with Kane and Red Bean.
"Sensei, will you become the Fourth Hokage?"
It seemed that she rarely left the village. Hongdou was particularly curious along the way. Although she still remembered the rules taught by Orochimaru in school and some of the rules for carrying out missions outside the village, the way she looked around still exposed her immaturity.
"Why do you ask?" Orochimaru's gaze instantly fell on Red Bean beside him.
Frightened by Orochimaru's sudden gaze, Red Bean puffed up her cheeks and said, "If you become the Fourth Hokage, wouldn't I be his disciple? Maybe after you abdicate, I can take over the position of the Fifth Hokage."
"Do you also want to be Hokage?" When Orochimaru heard what Red Bean said, there was a moment of daze on his face.
From my young self, to my disciple Naoki who died on the battlefield before he grew up, to Hongdou now, everything seems like a circle.
Does he still want to be Hokage?
Orochimaru was no longer sure at the moment. After all, the desire for immortality seemed to occupy an extremely important position in his heart at this moment.
"The first, second, and third generations are all so cool! I want to be as powerful as them and my teacher!" Hongdou's current understanding of the Hokage is just that the Hokage is the strongest one in the village.
"What about you, Luna, do you also want to become Hokage?" Orochimaru looked at Luna on the other side.
"Of course, but the premise is that it doesn't affect what I want to do. For example, research." Lu Nie was also very honest.
Orochimaru smiled.
"Teacher, you haven't answered me yet. Will you become the fourth Hokage?" Hongdou felt inexplicably ignored by the two of them. She immediately spoke loudly again, trying to attract their attention, or at least let herself join in.
Whenever Luna and Orochimaru started to communicate, she always felt like an extra companion. Obviously, her talent was not bad.
"Maybe. But the person who takes over the position could also be Sakumo-senpai." Orochimaru did not comment. He no longer wanted to guess what his teacher was thinking.
"Sakumo-senpai is quite strong." Anko muttered a few words when she heard Hatake Sakumo's name. Indeed, the Fourth Hokage is not only one of the Three Ninjas, but also has Hatake Sakumo, whose reputation is comparable to that of the Three Ninjas, and even slightly higher.
"Just focus on your mission first." Orochimaru touched Red Bean's head, causing her face to instantly turn red.
"A B-rank mission involves ninjas, right? I will behave well and complete the mission for you, Sensei," Anko promised stutteringly, her tone revealing a sense of joy and enthusiasm.
"This mission is not important. It's just something I can do." Orochimaru shook his head. "I'm leaving the village this time because I need to take you to a place to meet someone."
"Who are you going to see?" Hongdou looked up in confusion.
"Libra Jūgo." Orochimaru said a name that Red Bean couldn't think of no matter how hard she racked her brains.
Lu Nie looked at Orochimaru with a strange look. Although his memory was not very clear, he still probably knew some key people and events.
Libra Jūgo, isn't that Orochimaru's starting point?
Almost all of Orochimaru's subsequent research is inseparable from the origin of Juugo Tenbin. With him, Orochimaru created an incomplete version of the Immortal Art Curse Seal, perfected the Reincarnation of the Undead, and took a big step towards immortality. In Lu Nie's view, the so-called Curse Seal + Reincarnation of the Undead is equivalent to a castrated version of the wedge used by the Otsutsuki clan to resurrect. The only thing that limits him is that his body and chakra are not up to standard.
This alone shows how outstanding Orochimaru's research talent is.
However, his vision was too limited, causing him to be obsessed with the power of the Sharingan in his later years.
As for how Orochimaru knew the news from the outside world when he was in the village, Lu Nie didn't even bother to think about it. A ninja at Orochimaru's level would have some people who did dirty work or loyal subordinates who reported all kinds of information to him.
What Luna didn't expect was that Orochimaru had already taken over Jiraiya's position and was starting to stride towards the position of kindergarten principal.
Unfortunately, he still missed the most valuable one in the Rain Country.
Ninjas travel very fast. If it weren't for taking care of Luna and Red Bean, Orochimaru would have traveled even faster. After traveling for several days, they arrived at their destination.
"This place." In front of a dilapidated village, Hongdou shook her body uncomfortably. Suddenly, her eyes swept towards the dense forest on the left side of her body.
"I found you!" Hongdou took out a kunai from her back pocket, then swung her arm and threw the kunai towards somewhere in the dense forest.
Ding!
The kunai thrown into the dense forest hit a hard object and was knocked away. A black shadow rushed out of the dense forest with a strong wind.
Whoosh whoosh!
The three ninjas of Orochimaru, who were well prepared, immediately used the technique of instant body movement to leave the spot. The next moment, a big hole was blown into the ground where they were previously located under the hammer of gravity.
"This looks a bit like Tsunade-sama's super-powerful punch."
Seeing the serious damage to the terrain, Hongdou's eyes twitched involuntarily. If this fell on her, she might not feel good even if she had mastered the Blood-Stilling Equipment, not to mention that she had not mastered it yet.
Turning her gaze to the black shadow after the dust had settled, she wanted to see who was brave enough to take the initiative to attack the three of them.
"Kill you!"
The young man was roaring violently, with half of his body having grown into some strange limbs. He looked at Lu Nie and the other two with madness in his eyes.
Whoosh!
The young man's figure disappeared from the spot in an instant, and fell from mid-air towards the direction where Lu Nie and the others were like a cannonball.
Another big pit appeared, and in the center of the pit was a young man who was patrolling his prey like a wolf.
"Don't run, let me kill you! If I kill you I will have peace!" The young man muttered incoherently, looking for the traces of Lu Nie and the other two.
Blood movement equipment. Open.
Fire Escape·Dragon Fire Technique!
A blazing pillar of fire gushed out from the darkness, directly hitting the boy who was unable to dodge. The pillar of fire spread and turned the area around the boy into a sea of fire.
The column of fire lasted for a full ten seconds before it went out.
Hongdou took a breath with her chest heaving, looking at the area still blazing with flames, and subconsciously asked, "Is he dead?"
"Sorry, no." Kaname and Orochimaru looked at each other, took a step forward and blocked Red Bean behind them.
"Damn, that hurts!"
The roar caused waves of sound, dispersing the surrounding flames, revealing the enemy who was hit by the Dragon Fire Technique. His body had traces of high temperature burns, but the strange thing was that he was consuming a large amount of chakra to recover from his injuries at an incredible speed.
At the same time, the alienation of his body became more serious, almost spreading throughout his body.
If he could still be seen as a human being before, now, he looked like a wild beast. The skin tissue of his body had also turned into a thick insulation layer, which not only provided insulation but also increased his own protection.
As he spoke, large amounts of steam began to spew out from the holes on the surface of his body, dissipating the heat.
"What is this!" Hongdou could hardly believe it when she saw this scene. She had never seen or heard of such a perverted thing.
Is it some unknown bloodline limit?
Hongdou couldn't help but think about it subconsciously. With her brain and cognition, the most logical and factual thing she could imagine was that the opponent had some unknown bloodline limit of physical enhancement.
"More powerful force!"
The boy who has transformed into a monster attacks again.
A golden snake as thick as an adult's thigh suddenly jumped out from Orochimaru's sleeve, and like a predator, it quickly clamped the mutated boy around and around, suspending him in the air.
"It seems that the spiritual will has been deeply affected and communication is no longer possible." Looking at the madness and bloodiness revealed all over the body, including the pair of golden eyes, Orochimaru felt a little bored.
A beast without wisdom, no matter how powerful it is, is just a beast. Moreover, it is not as powerful as imagined.
Magical Naraku-seeing Technique!
Pulling the mutated boy closer, Orochimaru immediately cast an illusion on him.
Although the Naraku-ken Jutsu is only a D-level illusion, it is a technique that will make the recipient face his or her own fears regardless of his or her will, and materialize the fear in his or her heart.
The stronger the fear in the recipient's heart, the stronger the impact of the Naraku-ken Jutsu.
The mutated boy had almost no power to resist Orochimaru's illusion and fell into a mental breakdown, then passed out due to the excessive impact.
At the same time, the alienated parts of his body began to fade away slowly, revealing a face that looked a little younger.
"Looks like you're lucky." Orochimaru looked at the unconscious boy with great interest, licking his lips with his long tongue: "We found our target as soon as we got here."
"Hey?" Hongdou popped her head out from the back and looked at the boy lying on the ground with a surprised look on her face: "Is he the teacher you are looking for, the one called Libra Jūgo? Why is he like this? Is it some kind of bloodline limit?"
"No, his body mutated due to being immersed in a place with extremely high concentration of natural energy for a long time. He lost control because the runaway natural energy affected his mind." Orochimaru obviously had enough information.
