Chapter 93 New Mission in the Land of Grass, Heart of Steel Trait (Fourth Update)
boom!
When the water sphere burst open, it did not splash everywhere like other water-based techniques.
Instead, all the water flow was confined to a limited area by the high-speed rotating force, like an invisible drill grinding at high speed on the surface of the wooden stake.
Wood chips flew everywhere.
After just a few breaths, a deep spiral groove appeared on the surface of the wooden stake, with the edges of the groove as neat as if it had been cut with a knife, and a hole as thick as a bowl was drilled into the inside of the stake.
Qingyu stepped forward and reached out to touch the spiral groove.
The water was smooth to the touch, and the wood in the area touched by this ninjutsu was shredded by the high-speed rotating water.
"not bad."
Qingyu muttered to herself.
This was the first time he had successfully injected the nature transformation of Water Release chakra into the Rasengan.
Minato Namikaze spent three years creating the prototype of the "Rasengan," and after Kiyoha learned it from Minato, he began to try to develop advanced gameplay.
Theoretically speaking, the "Rasengan" is a basic motherboard.
On this motherboard, you can add any chakra attribute plugin.
Examples include Naruto's "Wind Release: Rasengan" and Boruto's "Lightning Release: Rasengan," etc.
If both lightning and wind chakra are added, it can be transformed into "Hurricane Lightning Spin Ball".
If you add Fire Release techniques, it can also become "Fire Release: Great Flame Rasengan".
Some of them didn't appear in the main storyline, but rather came from "Ultimate Storm".
But it also shows just how many variations there are in the "Rasengan" series.
Qingyu attempted to develop one such technique, "Water Release: Rasengan".
"It took less time than I expected."
Qingyu pondered to himself.
This was due in part to the Sharingan and his own chakra control abilities, and of course, it was also thanks to Minato Namikaze's generous and detailed explanation of the principles.
More importantly, he possessed the same level of aptitude for Water Release as Hiruzen Sarutobi, which allowed him to develop Water Release ninjutsu exceptionally quickly.
Hiruzen Sarutobi is a controversial figure when it comes to his character.
But if we're talking about his abilities, do he even understand the significance of the title "Ninja Doctor"?
The number of ninjutsu mastered by Tobirama Senju is probably less than that of Hiruzen Sarutobi.
However, Tobirama Senju knew many forbidden techniques, which Hiruzen Sarutobi could not match.
After resting for a while, Qingyu raised his right hand again, this time trying to inject lightning chakra into the "Rasengan".
At first, things went smoothly, with the Lightning Release chakra slowly spreading within the rotating sphere.
But at the very moment the lightning and water attributes were about to come into contact, the entire "Rasengan" suddenly lost its stability, and its internal structure collapsed in an instant.
Qingyu immediately threw the "Rasengan" that was about to go out of control into the sky.
boom!
A ball of blue and white light exploded in mid-air, and the remaining chakra transformed into a shockwave that spread outwards.
"Did the Lightning Release clash with the spinning Water Release chakra? —"
Qingyu gazed thoughtfully at the gradually dissipating arc of electricity in the sky.
It seems that creating a "Rasengan" with multiple attributes is not so easy.
Just then, a soft laugh came from behind Qingyu.
"Hehe, Qingyu-jun's training is still so diligent."
Orochimaru walked in.
Behind him was silence.
It was clearly Jingyin who opened the door when Qingyu was cultivating.
"Lord Orochimaru."
Qingyu put away his stance and nodded slightly to Orochimaru.
"Is there something you need from me?"
"The Grass Village has been quite restless lately."
Orochimaru pulled a mission scroll from his sleeve and handed it to Qingyu.
Qingyu unrolled the scroll and quickly scanned the contents.
The mission location is on the border of the Land of Grass, about four days' journey from Konoha.
The Land of Grass is a small country sandwiched between the Land of Fire and the Land of Earth. Its terrain is mainly hills and grasslands, making its strategic location extremely delicate.
To the north lies the Land of Earth, where Iwagakure is located, and to the south lies the Land of Fire, where Konoha is located.
Because of this geographical situation, Kusagakure Village has been wavering between major powers for many years, sometimes siding with the Land of Earth, sometimes leaning towards the Land of Fire, and sometimes even hedging its bets while maintaining a distant relationship with both sides.
Of course, to put it nicely, this is called absolute neutrality.
As a result, they even have an international prison like Ghost Lantern City.
The Hidden Grass Village itself is not strong militarily. It has no bloodline limit, no tailed beasts, and has never produced any powerful figures who are famous throughout the ninja world.
But they possess a unique survival wisdom; by skillfully navigating the complexities between powerful nations, they actually thrive better than many stronger villages.
However, this time, their actions seemed to have gone a bit too far.
"According to intelligence, Kusagakure has secretly established an outpost on the border, where a group of exiled ninjas and Kusagakure's ANBU have gathered. Their goal is to infiltrate the border town of the Land of Fire, steal Konoha's intelligence, and prepare for a possible large-scale conflict."
Orochimaru stuck out the tip of his tongue and licked the corner of his mouth.
Infringing upon Konoha's interests is not what Orochimaru wants to see right now.
What he needs is stability.
Only in this way could he continue to conduct his various experiments.
"The mission objective is simple: destroy this outpost and eliminate all enemy ninjas. The mission level is tentatively set at B, but may be upgraded to A depending on the situation."
"However, I will not participate in this mission."
Orochimaru abruptly changed the subject, his golden vertical pupils fixed on Qingyu.
Why?
Qingyu was puzzled.
If Orochimaru, the Jonin leading the team, doesn't go, who will?
Is it reasonable to send three genin on a B-rank mission?
After thinking about it, Qingyu concluded that Orochimaru should find a replacement Jonin.
As expected, Orochimaru continued, "I originally accepted this mission, but something came up and I had to hand it over."
"I asked Senior Sakumo to help lead the team. With his experience and strength, he has no problem leading the team to complete this mission. He doesn't have any subordinates to lead right now."
Qingyu put the scroll away and nodded.
"Understood, Lord Orochimaru."
With Sakumo Hatake leading the team, it's definitely a good choice.
Although Sakumo Hatake disappeared for a while due to the previous controversy, his strength and combat experience are still top-notch in Konoha. With him in charge, the margin for error in this mission will be much higher.
Seeing that Kiyoyu had no objections, Orochimaru turned and left.
After Orochimaru left, Qingyu returned to the living room and saw Tsunade curled up on the sofa, taking a nap.
"Tsunade-neechan, we have a mission."
Qingyu sat down next to her and rubbed her shoulders.
Tsunade woke up groggily.
She listened as Qingyu repeated what Orochimaru had said.
"Kusagakure Village?"
Tsunade rubbed her eyes and gradually came to her senses.
"Kusagakure has been getting increasingly restless lately, infiltrating intelligence and establishing outposts. They've certainly got some nerve."
She paused, then turned her head to look at Qingyu.
"Who does Orochimaru say will lead the team?"
"Senior Sakumo."
Upon hearing this, Tsunade nodded slightly.
The last time I saw him was after that public opinion storm broke out.
The story of abandoning the mission to save his comrades caused a great stir in the Konoha ninja community, and even some civilians knew about it.
Even the companion he saved stood up and criticized him, saying he was not worthy of being a ninja.
Because she drank and gambled every day, Tsunade had very little contact with anyone other than teaching Kiyoyu and Shizune.
I've only met Sakumo Hatake two or three times in the past few months.
Tsunade was just about to check on how well Sakumo Hatake had recovered his composure.
"Okay, I'll go with you."
Tsunade stood up and stretched.
Her top rode up slightly with her movement, revealing her flat, smooth stomach.
Qingyu could vaguely see her abs and thought to herself that female ninjas had great figures.
Only a very small percentage of female ninjas neglect their figure.
"Anyway, I don't have anything going on lately, so I might as well go and take a look."
Qingyu nodded, then seemed to suddenly remember something.
"By the way, Tsunade, I ran into Jiraiya-sama on the street. He asked me to pass on a message to you, asking if you'd like to have a drink. He said he's about to leave the village again for a trip, and we won't see each other for several months."
"Jiraiya?"
Tsunade paused for a moment, then waved her hand.
"Forget it, this guy probably just wants me to pay for the drinks. I'll deal with it next time."
"Tsunade said."
The next day, just as dawn was breaking, several figures were already standing outside the east gate of Konoha Village.
Sakumo Hatake stood at the very front.
After not seeing him for a while, the dejected look on his face had faded considerably.
Hinata Ginka hasn't arrived yet.
When Hatake Sakumo saw Kiyoha and Tsunade coming over, he greeted them.
"Qingyu, Tsunade."
"Senior Sakumo."
Tsunade nodded to him.
She found that Sakumo Hatake was in better condition than expected.
It seems that as long as we prevent people from getting stuck on a single point in the first place, the subsequent impact will be much smaller.
Qingyu also greeted them.
"have not seen you for a long time."
Sakumo Hatake smiled slightly, and the skin on his face relaxed a bit as he smiled.
"Thank you again for what happened before, Lady Tsunade and Kiyoha."
He was referring to Kiyoha encouraging Kakashi, and Tsunade helping to speak to Hiruzen Sarutobi.
"Ninjas give everything for the village, so the village should not let the ninjas down."
Tsunade said.
This is her opinion.
Even though he saved his companions, he was still criticized by them for doing so.
Wouldn't that be putting the cart before the horse?
The original intention behind establishing the ninja village was to treat everyone as comrades, to protect each other together, rather than to complete missions.
"That's right."
Sakumo Hatake nodded.
He finally understands.
The village is actually a very large area.
Among them, there are naturally good people and bad people. All he needs to do is protect the people he believes in, and the accusations of others are completely unimportant.
[Collectible trait detected: Peaceful state of mind]
[Level D Trait: Peaceful Mind]
[Effect: Increases illusion resistance by 30% and improves stress resistance.]
[Synthesis: After enduring ten illusion attacks, you can synthesize a C-grade trait: Heart of Steel.]
"Oh no, am I going to become the most resilient member of the Uchiha clan? If I improve my stress tolerance, will I still be a good Uchiha?"
Qingyu looked at the effect of this trait.
He wondered if he would betray the half of his Uchiha bloodline.
It is well known that the more unstable, extreme, and obsessive one's emotions are, the stronger the Uchiha clan becomes.
Those Uchiha who are more resilient to pressure and have a better mindset often lack potential.
Qingyu was already very resilient to pressure, and now she's even better.
It seems the only options are to use Yang Release to activate the Sharingan, or to increase Yin Release chakra to evolve the Sharingan.
Qingyu pondered to himself.
With his unique characteristics, he has many ways to evolve his Sharingan.
Even without a special system, Qingyu, who possesses the bloodline of the Senju clan, can continuously explore the potential of the Senju bloodline and improve his Sharingan.
In short, there are many unconventional methods to evolve the Sharingan.
But what does "Heart of Steel" mean? Could it be the kind of effect I'm thinking of?
Qingyu pondered.
However, the condition for completion is very simple: just have Kurenai Yuhi cast a binding genjutsu on yourself.
The judgment can be considered complete without injury.
Just then, a series of hurried footsteps came from the direction of the village entrance.
Hinata Ginka appeared in everyone's sight as she jogged, her long black hair tied back, slightly out of breath.
Although she was wearing the traditional robes of the Hyuga clan, the curves that were subtly revealed showed that she was a voluptuous woman.
"I'm sorry, Sakumo-senpai, Tsunade-sama, I'm late."
After she stopped, she bowed slightly to the crowd, her tone carrying a hint of apology.
"It's not late, we just arrived."
Sakumo Hatake waved his hand.
"Now that everyone's here, let's set off."
Hatake Sakumo nodded, then turned around and stepped out of the village gate first.
The group walked briskly along the road leading to the Grass Country. The road under their feet gradually changed from a flat stone slab road to a rugged dirt road, and the roadside trees on both sides were gradually replaced by sparse shrubs and mixed forests.
Then, the group began to leap and move forward on the tree branches.
Upon arriving in the ninja world, Qingyu discovered that the trees here were extremely tall, causing ninjas to prefer walking in the trees rather than traveling on the ground.
