Konoha's Destiny Twins

Three days later, August 29th.

Shimizu was dressed in ANBU costume and a red and white striped cat mask. After receiving the new S-level mission from the Sandaime Hokage, he headed non-stop to the port of the Kingdom of Iron, because his final mission was in the Country of Yu. , if you want to reach the Kingdom of Tang, you must first go to the port of the Kingdom of Iron to look for a ship.

He traveled across the territory of the Country of Fire at extremely high speeds, surpassing all previous speeds. This method of traveling regardless of chakra and physical strength... But he was still not satisfied with this, and increased his chakra regardless of the cost. The output continued to accelerate, faster and faster... He surpassed the sika deer chasing in the forest, surpassed the vigorous leopard, and finally... even the eagle in the sky lost his figure...

At some point, the warmth of summer turned into the coldness of winter in the blink of an eye. The vision ahead was a world of ice and snow covered with heavy snow. The high-speed advance allowed Qingshui to cross the entire northern border of the Fire Country in less than 2 days. He had already arrived at the border of the Fire Country and the Iron Country.

The Iron Kingdom is a permanently neutral country led by the warrior class. This country is a strange flower in this world dominated by ninjas. They have their own independent culture, and the violent institutions of the Iron Country are actually composed of samurai, and their combat power is extremely strong. This is why they can remain a permanently neutral country. Capital.

According to the description of the warriors of this country in the ANBU manual: The warriors of the Iron Country cannot use ninjutsu, but they can condense chakra on their swords and add superb swordsmanship to form a unique and deadly sword energy. This unique skill of the samurai made Qingshui yearn for it. He had saved money for so many years just to build a chakra sword that could allow him to use his thunder attribute chakra flexibly.

In addition, he had also deeply doubted whether White Fang's strength was closely related to the Iron Kingdom? The fundamental reason why White Fang is famous is because he can use a short blade that perfectly transmits thunder attribute chakra, as sharp as cutting gold and breaking jade, and with unparalleled speed. In sharp contrast to those strong men who rely on ninjutsu to stand at the top of the ninja world.

But the most surprising thing is that in the Iron Kingdom, both political and military power are highly concentrated in the hands of the head of state. On the one hand, there will be no internal strife between the head of state and the ninja village in the Iron Kingdom. On the other hand, national finances without the involvement of military forces are relatively simple. This is completely different from the embarrassing situation where military power and political power are misdivided between major ninja villages and daimyo.

Because the fundamental reason why Qingshui and the others would become victims was because the Daimyo of the Country of Fire accepted the peace request from the Daimyo of the Country of Wind, and paid a full ten tons of gold tribute as an apology! All Konoha Village has is military power, and even the Hokage cannot resist the will of the daimyo.

It can be said that the mission sent by Danzo completed the task perfectly: first, it successfully persuaded Hanzo, causing the Rain Ninja Village and Konoha Village to join forces to put pressure on Sunagakure. As a result, Sunagakure asked the Daimyo of the Wind Country to come forward to avoid war. A large amount of gold was paid as compensation, hoping that this matter would be resolved. The thought of the golden gold made the Fire Country's Daimyo happy, and he naturally readily agreed to the Wind Country's Daimyo's request for peace.

Are you talking about the death of two ANBU in Konoha? Sorry, daimyo doesn't care at all, it's just a number...

Moreover, only two ninjas died, and there were tens of thousands more in the village.

Of course, the village compensated Zhenghe and Qingshui a large amount of money, which solved the financial problem that Qingshui had been troubled for many years.

Because he has always wanted to customize a long sword that can transmit chakra thunder properties, which can greatly increase his combat power. It is not an exaggeration to call it a magic weapon.

But in the face of the Sandaime Hokage's apology and explanation, Shimizu still couldn't accept it, but he couldn't show his strange mental state. He could only accept the money calmly, indicating that he had accepted the deaths of Hinata Zeichi and Asakusa Natsue...

He is not Kakashi, who would be hostile to ninjas who cherish their companions because his father abandoned his mission and chose to commit suicide; nor is he Sasuke,

Because he knew that his brother had killed the entire clan and would live in hatred for the rest of his life.

A person cannot easily deny everything in his past just because of an accidental tragic event. He is a person with a complete world view and has long restrained the world-destroying emotions like children playing house. He can look at it all rationally. He knew that politics was like this, making people feel sick, but there was nothing he could do about it.

Will be sacrificed by Konoha as a bargaining chip, just because he is not strong enough. What if he has the strength and status of a Sannin? Or stronger? Will the Leaf Village still ignore his voice so much? !

Qing Shui chose to bury all this deeply in her heart. This debt must be recovered after all...

The northwest border of the Fire Country and the Iron Country is separated by a rock fault with a vertical drop of hundreds of meters and a horizontal interval of hundreds of meters. The Fire Country has a higher terrain, while the Iron Country is located on the northwest plain. Normally, the mutual communication between the northwest frontiers of the two sides relies on only a few bridges. For example, taking the bridge in front of Qingshui, he should have crossed the chasm from the bridge to the Kingdom of Iron, just like the caravan on the bridge. But Qingshui didn't slow down at all, and all he could see was the plain covered with white snow - so he jumped from the valley to the distant plain, his strong figure gliding in the air, and the flowers of ice accompanied him as he soared. A burst of snow danced all over the sky around him.

"Oh my god?! That's a person?!" Someone in the caravan had already noticed Qingshui chasing him at high speed from behind. When they came to their senses, Qingshui had already jumped to the border of the Kingdom of Iron on the other side. .

Because of this man's surprised shout, the entire team's attention was attracted.

"He's flying?!" A samurai holding a sword looked in disbelief.

"It's still too far. He will fall before reaching the other side..." the team leader analyzed calmly.

Qing Shui also knew that even with the help of extreme speed sprint, it was foreseeable that he would fall into this ravine.

Seal!

Thunder Release Chidori!

Accompanied by the sudden flash of blue and white dazzling thunder, the chirping of thousands of birds broke the silence of this white and peaceful world!

Because Chidori's thrusting ability increased Qingshui's speed through the air... I saw him speeding up again in mid-air as if he had gained new power...

"Ah——!" Everyone in the caravan was astonished.

"That's Ninjutsu!" Someone saw the nature of this blue and white lightning.

"Boom - Boom - Boom!!" Qingshui flew perfectly over the hundreds of meters of sky chasm and landed steadily on the plain on the opposite side of the valley. The huge destructive power of the Chidori swept everything in his path into pieces. ruins. Without stopping at all, he dispersed the effect of Chidori's ninjutsu, accelerated again, and disappeared from the sight of everyone in the caravan in the blink of an eye.

"Who is that?" someone asked.

"Looking at the costumes, they look like Konoha's ANBU." The leading middle-aged samurai said solemnly, "We continue to move forward, aiming for the newly built city."

"Yes!" everyone shouted in unison.

……………………………………………………………………………………

As night fell, Qingshui chose to camp in the wild. He planned to visit the capital of the Iron Country tomorrow, Shinjuku Castle, and take the opportunity to learn about chakra weapons and samurai sword skills. After lighting the fire, he leaned against a big tree.

Feeling the changes in the amount of chakra in his body, there was a slight increase compared to when he was recovering from injury. Although it was very small, this step-by-step progress made him feel very at ease.

Qing Shui opened the Ninjutsu Codex of the Nidaime Hokage and read the contents diligently and carefully with the help of the burning firelight. He knew very well that for him, the real treasure house of this manual was the knowledge inside: the entire set of ideas and systems for the systematic development of ninjutsu. Therefore, Qingshui planned not to learn new ninjutsu until he understood water release ninjutsu to a higher level.

You cannot become a truly powerful ninja by mechanically copying learning.

The more you read and understand, the more you will understand the true power of the Second Hokage. First of all, the Nidaime Hokage simplified all water escape ninjutsu and tried to use the least number of seals or even no seals to create the maximum ninjutsu effect.

For example, the B-level water release defensive ninjutsu "Water Release: Water Formation Wall" is a conventional seal ninjutsu, but the Nidaime Watermark developed the A-level seal ninjutsu "Water Release: Water Wall" based on this. ", this ninjutsu can directly gather the water escape chakra in the hand, and launch a water wall to protect yourself or other targets. It can be a row of straight water walls or a cylindrical water wall. It can be said that it is very flexible and suitable for various combat environments, and because of the characteristics of Muji, this ninjutsu can be cast instantly.

For another example, the Nidaime Hokage improved on the D-level "Blinking Body Jutsu" and developed the C-level Water Release Muji Ninjutsu "Water Release: Shunshui". This is an instantaneous weapon that can be used in water environments. The body technique can instantly appear in various locations in the water and glide on the water. Also, the originally B-level water release ninjutsu "Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet" has 44 seals, so it takes several seconds to activate no matter how fast it is. The second-generation Hokage simplified this technique to only require 9 seals to activate without changing its power. In other words, if he can practice the speed of sealing to the extreme, it is possible to release this B-level water escape high-level ninjutsu within 2 seconds!

What's even more frightening is that on the basis of the water dragon bomb, an S-level water escape ninjutsu "Water Release: Water Dragon Bite Explosion" was actually developed. This is a combo ninjutsu! This ninjutsu first creates a pool of sharp rock-like water from underneath the enemy, which is called a water dragon bomb, knocking it into the air, and then uses a massive amount of chakra to create a huge water vortex on the ground and spread it. While the water vortex spreads, Countless rising water streams are continuously fired from the center, that is, countless water dragon bullets rapidly impact the enemy, thereby performing high-speed long-range attacks. This is a water escape ninjutsu that is extremely fast, has a long attack distance, a wide range, and is powerful. It is one of the water escape techniques of the second generation Hokage.

What a genius of creativity and terrifying ninjutsu research and development talent!

There are also other A-level water escape ninjutsu such as "Water Release - Rain Formation", "Water Release - Sky Cry", "Water Release - Big Explosive Water Wave" and other powerful water release ninjutsu that are suitable for various environments. . The last one is another S-level water escape ninjutsu "Water Release: Hard Vortex Water Blade". This ninjutsu is the most terrifying ninjutsu that requires the most amount of chakra that Shimizu has ever come into contact with. The second generation Hokage commented on it as "destroying the world".

Qingshui could feel the weight of these four simple words.

Currently, the only S-level ninjutsu that Shimizu knows is "Water Release: Water Breaking Wave". The chakra consumption of this ninjutsu seems to have just reached the minimum standard of S-level ninjutsu, but this ninjutsu is a continuous attack ninjutsu. This means that as long as you maintain the output of chakra, the effect of this S-level attack ninjutsu can be maintained. Relatively speaking, another A-level ninjutsu "Thunder Release Chidori" with an S-level ninjutsu chakra consumption is much more affordable, but there are too many prerequisites for the activation of this ninjutsu, and it can only be used at one time A single attack has too many limitations.

As for "Water Release: Hard Vortex Water Blade", according to the second generation Hokage's notes, the chakra consumption is ten times that of "Water Release: Water Break Wave". What is this concept? ! The chakra of an ordinary jounin is not enough to activate this ninjutsu, and at least an elite jounin or above is required. It’s simply an outrageous exaggeration!

This means that Shimizu's current heyday chakra is not enough to perform this S-level ninjutsu. Because his real chakra amount is only about 1.5 times that of a jounin, Suna Ninja will mistake him for an elite jounin with three times the chakra amount of a jounin, just because his chakra recovery speed is extremely fast...

Therefore, Qingshui cannot learn this ninjutsu at all now, but he must learn it. And it is a complete mastery of this super powerful ninjutsu that consumes ten times the chakra of ordinary S-level ninjutsu. This fucking technique is simply forbidden! Unfortunately, this ninjutsu has a long activation time of 102 seals. The Nidaime Hokage died before he could complete the simplification of the seals for this ninjutsu...

At the end of the Ninjutsu Handbook, there are notes about the Nidaime Hokage's thoughts and conjectures about the undeveloped Water Release Ninjutsu, as well as the one-handed seal Ninjutsu. He has to be as fast as possible. Completely learn the contents of this handbook, and then completely integrate it, turning it all into the cornerstone for him to step up to a higher level.

But it seems like there are a few pages missing? It looked like someone had torn out 5 pages.

In addition, he was a little strange, why didn't Orochimaru learn such a powerful water escape ninjutsu?

In fact, the ninjutsu here are all leftover after being screened by Orochimaru. Orochimaru once sneaked into Konoha's forbidden arts base and found that the entire Konoha library was filled with various forbidden arts invented by the second generation Hokage Senju Tobirama. These forbidden arts fascinated him.

So although these powerful water escape ninjutsu are indeed very powerful, they are of no value to Orochimaru at all. Not only does he have no interest, but he will not learn them. In Orochimaru's view, forbidden arts are the real thing in this world. Ninjutsu! What's more, a person's energy is limited and it is impossible to learn all ninjutsu. Therefore, these Water Release Ninjutsu have become chips that Orochimaru can throw away at will.

Qingshui didn't understand Orochimaru's thoughts, nor did he know Orochimaru's pursuit. In his opinion, since the other party would give him these water escape ninjutsu, it was probably Orochimaru who thought these ninjutsu were nothing more than that. He didn't believe it. All it takes is a syringe of blood and a few hairs to acquire these water escape ninjutsus. And there is not even a single space ninjutsu in the entire ninjutsu manual! You must know that the power of the Nidaime Hokage is not only reflected in the water escape - but also the flying thunder god!

He also didn't believe that Orochimaru was showing favor to him or wooing him, because now he could basically guess that what Orochimaru said on the day of the funeral was to incite his trust in the Sandaime Hokage - but unfortunately... Orochimaru's The expectations were about to be disappointed... because Qingshui had never trusted the people in power in Konoha, so there was no provocation. Of course, he has even less favorable impressions of Ne, Danzo and Orochimaru...

Because of the deep-rooted impressions from his previous life, Qingshui will never be confused by Orochimaru... Of course, he will never be able to form a faction...
