Chapter 75 The Fragile Ninja Will Eventually Become a Thing of the Past
At night, within the Land of Fire, Sakumo's squad stopped to rest.
After eating the soldier's rations to fill their stomachs, Hatake Sakumo sat cross-legged on a large rock, while Genma and the other two lay on the grass beside him, with the brilliant Milky Way and stars shining in the sky above.
"There was a shooting star!"
Suddenly, Shizune exclaimed.
Beneath the Milky Way, a streak of light could be seen streaking across the sky.
Yamashiro Aoba casually asked, "By the way, does making a wish upon seeing a shooting star really make it come true?"
Shizune complained, "Hey, Aoba, you're such a spoilsport, you'll have a hard time finding a girlfriend in the future!"
Yamashiro Aoba smiled and teased nonchalantly, "Yeah, yeah, anyway, you guys don't need it anymore, so it doesn't matter, right?"
Silent face flushed red, and she remained silent.
Xuanma, however, gazed at the moon hanging in the sky and suddenly asked, "Do you think anyone lives on the moon?"
"?"
Are there people living on the moon?
Shizune also looked at the big, round moon.
Yamashiro Aoba laughed and said, "Genma, your imagination is a bit too rich."
Xuanma smiled and asked, "Then do you think there might be one of those stars in the sky, just like us, inhabited by people?"
Yamashiro Aoba pondered seriously, "Isn't that quite possible?"
"But then again, even if they did, they probably wouldn't be able to see each other."
During my time at the Ninja Academy, I learned basic knowledge about planets, galaxies, and the universe.
Humans haven't even left Earth yet.
Suddenly, Yamashiro Aoba thought of something amusing and laughed, "Genma, if you became the most powerful bird, could you fly out of Earth, to the moon, and to other planets?"
Shizune laughed and retorted, "Aoba, what kind of bird can fly off Earth?"
Yamashiro Aoba thought for a moment: "A powerful summoning beast should work, right?"
"By the way, do you have any plans to find or train summoned beasts?"
Summoning beast?
Do I need a summoning beast?
Genma thought to himself, and then felt that he didn't really need it; he could be his own summoning beast.
Shizune asked curiously, "Aoba, do you know how to raise summoned beasts?"
Aoba Yamashiro's mind went blank for a moment: "Um—does Sakumo-sensei know how to train summoned beasts?"
Sakumo Hatake, who had been listening to their conversation, smiled and said, "There isn't really a good, definite solution."
"Or rather, it is extremely difficult to train an ordinary animal into a spirit beast."
"Therefore, most ninjas summon beasts by contracting with natural ninja beasts or by raising their offspring."
"If you really want to raise them yourself, choose animals that are naturally intelligent and can be close to us humans, such as cats or dogs."
Xuanma and the other two then sat up.
Sakumo Hatake said, "As for the specific training methods, they are actually not complicated."
"You all know that chakra has the power to communicate with minds, right?"
"Therefore, all you need to do is use chakra to communicate with the summoned beast you have a contract with and let it become familiar with this power. If it has potential, even an ordinary animal can become a ninja beast."
"Another option is to buy special ninja beast food to feed them, which is used to enhance their physical strength. Our Inuzuka clan in Konoha has a shop that sells it."
"Of course, the most important thing is still the first point, which is communication and guidance. Because truly powerful ninja beasts do not possess brute strength, but rather intelligence, the ability to refine chakra, and the understanding of how to cooperate with ninjas."
Xuanma and the other two suddenly realized what was happening and remembered it.
These are things that the ninja academy won't teach.
Yamashiro Aoba continued to inquire, "What if we use a crow as a summoning beast? Crows seem to be very intelligent birds."
Hatake Sakumo nodded: "The crow is no problem. Flying ninja beasts are always rare, so it would be excellent if we could train one."
After thinking for a moment, Yamashiro Aoba decided, "Then I'll choose the crow. I'll find a crow to contract with when I get back to the village."
Xuanma smiled and suggested, "You can make more contracts to summon a flock of crows. This can effectively disrupt the enemy's vision, allowing you to launch a surprise attack."
Upon hearing this, Yamashiro Aoba immediately gave a thumbs up.
Shizune then smiled and said, "Genma, I think a crow would suit you very well too."
"You can easily turn your clone into a crow and blend in with the crows summoned by spirits to launch a surprise attack."
Yamashiro Aoba nodded in agreement, then suddenly had a thought: "By the way, Genma, can your transformation technique turn you into a ninja beast?"
"If I become a ninja beast, will I also possess their abilities?"
Xuanma shook his head: "It's a great pity, it's not possible."
"Although I can become an animal and possess their characteristics, such as powerful vision and sense of smell, and the ability to fly and swim."
"But if it's a ninja beast, it can only possess basic characteristics. For example, a ninja dog's sense of smell far surpasses that of ordinary dogs, but if it becomes a ninja dog, its sense of smell will still be the same as that of an ordinary dog."
Genma speculated, "Perhaps it's because they don't possess the corresponding chakra."
He even tried to transform into a nine-tailed fox.
But after transforming, she is just an ordinary nine-tailed fox, a regular fox with nine tails, without the powerful chakra of a nine-tailed fox.
Clearly, the modified Transformation Technique 1.0, like the Stand Technique 1.0, has limitations.
Otherwise, that would truly be defying the heavens.
Of course, if he were to become a woman—he would indeed possess all the necessary characteristics. As for whether he could have children, if any adoptive father were willing to give it a try, Genma wouldn't mind helping him perform the transformation.
After chatting for a while, everyone took a break.
Nothing happened that night, and the team set off early the next morning, finally arriving back in Konoha before lunch.
Sakumo Hatake, the team leader, was still responsible for reporting his duties, while Genma and the other two were dismissed and went home as soon as they returned to the village.
Back home, Genma threw himself into the bathtub and let out a long, satisfying sigh.
Having to work hard outside at the age of 10? This world is truly cruel!
If my son and daughter continue like this in the future, wouldn't it be a waste of my rebirth?
It needs to be changed!
After catching his breath, Genma opened the [Settings Collection].
"Um?
Genma blinked.
What's going on?
Why did the setting suddenly become over 30?
Genma immediately flipped through the logbook of the [Settings Collection].
Has Hanzo recruited the Akatsuki?
What the hell?
Why did Hanzo suddenly recruit Nagato and the others?
Nagato and his group shouldn't be that famous yet, right?
Moreover, Hanzo's participation in the war aligns with Akatsuki's current ideology.
Doesn't that seem a bit off?
Genma scratched his head, muttering to himself, "Could it be that Hanzo's mind has changed because of me?"
"I'm giving myself 15 points for this indirect influence, which is even more extravagant than Tsunade."
I can't imagine how much potential he would have had if he had personally pushed this forward.
Hiss~ Genma felt a pang of heartache, like he had lost a million dollars.
"etc----"
Genma suddenly thought of someone: "Could it be Danzo causing trouble?"
That's very possible!
If Konoha were to send someone to negotiate cooperation with Amegakure, an ordinary Jonin wouldn't be qualified; Danzo would likely be the one to go.
The fate of the Akatsuki has begun to change!
Moreover, it is very likely that it will be changed beyond recognition.
Looking at the [Settings], Genma knew that the chain reaction of Amegakure's involvement in the Fourth Shinobi World War was far from over.
Although this would drastically change the plot he already knew, he couldn't help but feel excited.
Then, Genma rubbed his hands together.
Even disregarding the odd amount, he felt that leaving the 30-point setting was a waste, so he decided to put it to use.
But how should it be used effectively?
Modifying the Substitution Jutsu is far from enough; should we lower the requirements even further?
For example, simply modifying the distance.
Currently, the substitution technique 1.0 has a switching distance of 15 meters.
Genma was unsure of the maximum range of Uchiha Sasuke's Amenotejikara, but it was clearly more than 15 meters.
"Sigh, I said I'd consider directly modifying physical constitution and mental strength, so why did I end up modifying ninjutsu instead?"
Xuanma sighed inwardly, feeling somewhat ashamed.
"So how should we modify our physical constitution and mental strength?"
Genma began to think, and before he knew it, the water in the bathtub had gone cold.
Whoosh!
After standing up, drying himself, and getting dressed, Xuanma tidied his hair in front of the mirror and noticed that he seemed to have grown a little taller.
"Tsk, he gets more handsome every day."
After indulging in self-admiration, Xuanma went out to find food, while his brain continued to function.
In the Naruto world, apart from the Otsutsuki clan, no matter how strong a ninja's physique or chakra is, they are still fragile.
Only with the amplification of chakra can ninjas be less fragile and more resilient to physical attacks.
Of course, swords and knives can still easily break through defenses.
And the Otsutsuki's physical body—
Genma recalled for a moment, unsure whether Otsutsuki was born that way or became stronger after eating the fruit of the Divine Tree.
"The range of physical constitution is too broad, but first of all, if I want to make changes, I can't modify things like immortal bodies or vortex bloodlines."
Genma's previous modification of his chakra level actually served to enhance his physical and mental strength.
Physical strength is also a part of physical constitution, a dimension.
However, apart from the increased physical strength, these modifications did not change anything else.
For example, defense, strength.
Of course, with the support of powerful chakra, his strength will definitely increase.
As for the Sage Body, it also requires powerful chakra, or perhaps all attributes can be added?
"My own chakra is now at the level of a tailed beast, and I also have Perfect Sage Mode, so it can be said that I have the same unlimited endurance as a tailed beast."
"And all attributes, but I don't need all attributes right now—"
"What's most important to me?"
Xuanma grasped the key point.
He's afraid of dying!
Ninjas are so fragile and weak, they need to be changed!
With that thought, Xuanma knew what to do.
And before he knew it, he had arrived at Ichiraku Ramen.
"Then let's have a bowl of ramen!"
Genma turned and went into the shop: "Uncle Ichiraku, a bowl of flavored char siu, and please pack three more for me."
He planned to bring some to Shizune and the others to eat.
Although it's highly likely they've already eaten, ninjas can eat again.
"Genma, please wait a moment!"
The young Ichiraku Otsutsuki greeted him with a smile.
