Chapter 224 Who Is the First Ninja to Be Reincarnated?

"Mr. Minister, the assessment is over.

Uehara Osamu nodded and looked at the Master.

"Master, shall I go back to the Forging Island first?"

"Okay."

More than 40 new members gathered at the training ground.

Uehara Osamu walked in and slowly came to the temporary platform.

Everyone's eyes immediately focused on Uehara Osamu.

The eyes were full of respect.

"That's Minister Uehara?"

"So young."

"At this age, he has the talent to forge a Zanpakutō. In terms of forging, Minister Uehara can be regarded as a genius among geniuses."

"The village is lucky to have Minister Uehara."

"And we are lucky to follow Minister Uehara." ”

After passing the assessment, these people have not yet felt that they have become members of the Forging Department.

When they saw Uehara Osamu, this feeling really came up.

For a moment, they were all a little excited.

Uehara Osamu looked around.

"Everyone, congratulations on passing the assessment. From today on, you are a member of the Forging Department Guard."

"It is divided into six teams."

"Four team captains will be born from among you."

Because Qing went to the front line, the previous structure of the Forging Department was not so reasonable.

The captain of the first team, Ota, is also the captain.

The captain of the second team, Kaguya Izumi, is also the vice president of the foundation.

Uehara Osamu adopted a structure similar to that of the Death God Squad.

"Next, I will briefly talk about your welfare benefits..."

"And the foundation."

"Joining the foundation is entirely voluntary, without forced requirements, and is not linked to any merit. "

"In addition, I would like to take this opportunity to announce that the compensation measures taken by the Forging Department for the guards who were injured or killed in the last incident will first come from the Foundation."

The guards whose names were called stepped forward.

For those whose names were called but who were already dead, Uehara Osamu arranged for other people to represent them.

After today, the compensation will be sent to their families.

This made the newly joined guards feel close to the Forging Department.

A department that treats its subordinates so well gives real benefits.

It's like returning to "home".

The meeting ended.

Uehara Osamu looked at the guards who were lining up.

The captains of the four teams had actually been selected in the previous assessment.

They were the winners of the four actual combat assessments.

Sixty people lined up neatly.

"The number of members of the guards has increased, and it's time to recruit more blacksmiths to hold a sword-forging competition and harvest a wave of reputation from the people in the Forging Department. ”

“It’s almost enough to accumulate reputation to nearly 3,000 points.”

Originally, Uehara Osamu wanted to slow down the progress and relax himself a little.

After all, the situation in Kirigakure has stabilized.

The war is about to be won.

And Akatsuki will not take action so quickly.

However, the changes in Konoha have given Uehara Osamu a strong sense of urgency.

“Kirigakure needs more top ninjas.”

“If Konoha can resurrect Hashirama Senju, Tobirama Senju…all through the Impure World Reincarnation, and even transplant Hashirama’s cells to many ninjas, then the number of top ninjas in Konoha will be unprecedented.”

“Even if the people who are resurrected by the Impure World Reincarnation are far less powerful than they were in their lifetime.”

“Especially the Impure World Reincarnation Technique that has not been improved.”

“But in the history of Konoha, there are too many powerful ninjas.”

“I need to create more ninja tools.”

“And, stronger ninja tools.”

“So at least forty consecutive draws are required. ”

“If you choose one out of six, the possibility of choosing a matching ninja tool will be much greater.”

“And my personal strength also needs to be improved.”

Uehara Shu divided his time into three parts.

One is to learn the water ninjutsu brought by Izumo Kizuo.

The previous Izumo Kizuo only knew part of the secret techniques of the Kizuo clan.

Now, with the "extermination" of the Kizuo clan, Izumo Kizuo brought all the water ninjutsu secret techniques to Uehara Shu, as well as the scroll that can summon the ninja sword.

“Water ninjutsu, water healing technique!”

It was seen that Uehara Shu’s arm turned into a stream of water.

The water flow wrapped around an injured fish.

The injuries on the fish recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye under the action of the water flow.

“This healing effect is extremely strong!”

“Comparable to Konoha’s palm fairy technique, no, even better than Konoha’s palm fairy technique. "

Uehara Shu looked at the fully recovered fish, threw it lightly, and threw it back into the sea.

"In terms of healing ninjutsu, I have reached a very good level in healing external injuries with this water healing technique. Now I can be considered a high-level medical ninja in the medical department."

"Next is water escape and oil."

The water escape technique is to turn the body into water.

And water escape oil is equivalent to turning the body that has turned into water into oil.

This is a prerequisite ninjutsu that must be learned before learning the steam explosion technique.

Uehara Shu carefully read the ninjutsu scroll.

Then, he closed his eyes and deduced in his mind.

The next moment, he opened his eyes and made a seal.

"Water escape, oil transformation."

Uehara Shu looked at his hands.

"Compared to other water escapes, this water escape is much more difficult, just like when I first learned the water transformation technique, it takes time to advance the progress."

"It's not that I have the ultimate level of water escape talent and can learn it in one go."

"But now, I can be regarded as a master of water escape."

Uehara Shu summarized his water escape ninjutsu.

He has learned all the conventional water escapes of the Hidden Mist Village.

Water Dragon Bullet, Water Prison, Water Clone, Hidden Mist Technique, Exploding Water Wave, Water Array Wall, Water Array Pillar, Cutting Rain, Water Flow Whip, Water Fang Blade Technique, Water Fang Bullet Technique.

Then there are the secret techniques of the Hozuki clan.

Water transformation technique, water cannon technique, water cannon double ding, water cannon sweep, water cannon shotgun, oil transformation technique, water ball technique, great water wrist technique, water transformation healing technique.

"Among the secret techniques of the Hozuki water escape technique, there are only two left that I haven't learned."

"One is the steaming danger explosion."

"A highly offensive and destructive ninjutsu."

"The other is the Tate-Eboshi."

"Defensive ninjutsu."

Tate-Eboshi means turning the whole body into water, and then using chakra to create a large amount of water. You can also directly take the water that already exists in nature and cover yourself.

It's like wearing a huge armor.

It becomes a giant beast.

In a sense, it is similar to the Uchiha clan's Susanoo.

It's just a little weaker.

After that, the shape is not so regular, but it flows and changes.

"In appearance, it is like a slime."

"In the original plot, Hozuki used this ninjutsu to fight against the Eight-Tails for a short time."

"Facing huge creatures, this ninjutsu has a certain space to play."

The second part is still the improvement of forging technology.

This is a long-term content for Uehara Shu.

The third part is the sword forging competition.

"After the sword forging competition is over, we can start the dimensional material copy of the Soul-stealing Sword."

Soon, Arafune II completed the preparations for the forging competition.

A list appeared in Uehara Shu's hands.

Uehara Shu summoned several forgers from the forging island.

"Mr. Minister."

Uehara Shu nodded slightly.

"For this sword forging competition, I plan to recruit three forgers at one time. With the development of the broadsword business, the forging department is completely short of manpower and urgently needs to be supplemented."

"Moreover, the income from this expanded business can also support the consumption of the forging department."

"With more people, the rules must be stricter."

Uehara Shu said: "Regarding the forgers, I decided to list a rating."

"It is divided into trainee forgers, low-level forgers, intermediate forgers, and senior forgers."

"The forgers who have just joined the forging department are trainee forgers. After passing the internship period, they are low-level forgers."

"Chakra smelting technique, breathing forging method, any one of which has reached the entry level is considered an intermediate forger."

"At least one is fully mastered, then it is a senior forger."

Uehara Shu temporarily only divides it here.

After all, except for Arakune II, no one has reached the intermediate level.

As for Arakune II, it can only be regarded as the entry level of breathing forging method.

Different levels, different treatment, and different status.

This is the catalyst that can make the forgers work hard.

Two days later, nine forgers came to the forging island.

"The third sword forging competition officially begins!"

As Uehara Osamu said, the nine forgers were busy.

"Ding!"

"Ding!"

"Ding!"

A series of knocking sounds came one after another.

Uehara Osamu took a look.

The biggest difference between the forgers who came to the assessment this time and the forgers who came to the assessment before is the difference in attitude. They are very serious and have serious expressions. They dare not slack off at all.

Cherish this opportunity very much.

Moreover, they are extremely optimistic about the future of the forgers in the forging department.

Now the people in the Hidden Mist Village have already known that no matter what happens to the forging department, it will not decline.

It is not just relying on Uehara Osamu alone.

The scalpel and broadsword, in the situation of the Iron Country, cannot be reproduced in a short time.

Even if the war is over and peacetime comes, the forging department will still not lack business.

"I'm done!"

A middle-aged blacksmith raised his hand impatiently just after he finished forging.

However, the blacksmith next to him seemed to be affected.

The progress was not ideal to begin with, and under such stimulation, he made a mistake accidentally, which caused the entire work to be destroyed in an instant, and he didn't even have the chance to participate in the final knife test.

The young man held his head and squatted on the ground, showing an extremely annoyed expression.

"I'm done too!"

The blacksmiths finished one after another.

Uehara Osamu gestured to Arafune II.

Then, the members of the escort team helped to transport the fish in and hang them on the rack. The blue scales looked unusual, not ordinary fish.

"Knife test, start!"

Uehara Osamu's voice fell, and the blacksmiths came forward together.

He waved the knife in his hand and slashed hard at the fish in front of him.

"Pfft!"

"Pfft!"

"Pfft!"

"when!"

Suddenly, the moment a knife touched the fish body, the huge collision force caused the knife, which was not tough enough, to break directly, and half of the blade flew out.

The knife forging competition once again became the knife breaking competition.

"Mr. Minister, be careful!"

A member of the escort team saw the half of the blade flying towards the position where the original cultivator was, and quickly shouted a warning.

And the forger of the broken sword was even more worried.

Injuring Osamu Uehara was a big deal.

Whether to punish or not is another matter.

The blacksmith was worried that he would be disliked by Osamu Uehara because of this, and would lose the opportunity to join the forging island forever.

This is unacceptable to him.

The current job on the Forging Island is an excellent job.

The treatment, status, reputation... are all far superior to ordinary ninjas.

Osamu Uehara looked at the attacking blade without any change in his expression.

Such an attack, if considered an attack, is too weak.

Osamu Uehara's basic attributes reached the jounin level.

The overall strength, with the addition of many factors, can be regarded as an elite jounin level.

Osamu Uehara flicked his finger.

Then a drop of water came towards the blade.

The blade was directly bounced away.

"continue!"

It was just a small accident, Uehara Shu wouldn't make a fuss over it.

"Yes, Sir Minister!"

After the interview, the three blacksmiths stayed on the forging island.

Osamu Uehara led all the blacksmiths into the forging room.

"Sennosuke-senpai, what are you doing, Buchou-sama?"

A trainee blacksmith knew Tanaka Shinnosuke and couldn't help but ask.

"Master Minister, you want to show us a complete process of making a good sharp knife. This opportunity is rare. Speaking of which, we still took advantage of you."

"When a new blacksmith joins, the Minister will demonstrate it again."

"But the minister's time is too precious."

"There are too many things that need to be done personally by the Minister."

"Since coming to this forging island, I haven't seen the Minister rest much."

"And the Minister has no secrets at all. He is completely different from the previous blacksmiths on the Forging Island."

Uehara Shu doesn't hide anything because he doesn't worry about anyone catching up to him.

These people all learned what Kamehara cultivated.

And Osamu Uehara is bound to the forging island, which means that Osamu Uehara will always be a level higher than his own skills.

There is also the bonus of God's Hand.

Even if these people learn everything from Kamehara Sho, they still cannot surpass Kamehara Sho.

Those who were on the Forging Island before were different.

"Look carefully, how much you can learn depends on your own understanding."

"Understood, thank you Shinnosuke-senpai!"

…

…

"Finally, the research is almost done."

Orochimaru rubbed the center of his eyebrows, his face looking tired.

These days, other people in Konoha have used their lives to block the attacks of the three major ninja village armies.

Orochimaru, on the other hand, also tried his best and barely rested.

"The art of reincarnation from dirty soil!"
