Chapter 165 Swordsman!
The ritual lasted several times longer than the previous experiment, and it took a full hour to finish. Fukai was almost exhausted, and countless blood seeped out of the pores on his body, soaking his clothes. It can be seen that the ritual is domineering.
"Cousin!"
Yeyue Ai, who was waiting anxiously on the side, hurried forward to help Fukai up, but was stopped by Tamura Hao.
"It's best not to touch him now, his body's sense of touch is at its most sensitive state."
This is the effect of the deep fusion of soul and body, and it is also an improvement on his immortal body.
Although it will greatly enhance the sense of pain, other senses will also be enhanced. As long as they adapt, they can assist in the exertion of strength.
Uzumaki Kushina, who had been watching on the side, hurriedly fed Fukai the prepared nutrient solution bit by bit, and Uzumaki Vanilla on the other side performed the palm fairy technique to slowly relax Fukai's twitching muscles.
After more than half an hour of cooperation, Fukai finally recovered.
"Teacher, how do you feel?"
Helping Fukai up, Tiancun Hao asked.
"Very good, better than ever before."
Although his face was pale, Fukai was very excited.
He could clearly feel the vigorous vitality, as well as the huge improvement in his senses. He could even hear the heartbeats of several people.
"It's my turn!"
Yeyue Ai couldn't wait to lie on the altar. He would not hesitate to improve his strength.
After checking the physical condition of teacher Fukai, Tiancun Hao performed the evil god ritual for Yeyue Ai.
Like Fukai, Yeyue Ai also succeeded smoothly, followed by Uchiha Guang.
"It feels the same as when I used Susanoo."
Uchiha Guang's condition was relatively good, because she had endured similar pain before, that is, when she used Susanoo, especially in the last battle of that year, she used Susanoo to the limit of her own ability.
The whole body was in severe pain, as if every cell was torn apart.
But this time the harvest is good. I feel that the power of the Thousand Hands bloodline has been greatly improved, and the degree of integration with the heart has also been greatly improved. The feeling of rejection has completely disappeared.
"Don't do this ritual. Wait until it is perfected."
Looking at Uzumaki Kushina and Uzumaki Vanilla beside him, Uchiha Guang denied the evil god ritual.
Not only because the two are too young, but also because their physical fitness is not enough. Even when he performed the evil god ritual before, he was very reluctant, and his muscles and blood vessels were torn.
"Guang is right, and the side effects brought by the sensory enhancement also need to be adapted, otherwise it will only have a counterproductive effect."
Tamura Hao also disagreed with the evil god ritual for the two women. The main combat power of the two at this stage is to use the diamond seal to attack the Rasengan from a distance. There is no need to perform the evil god ritual immediately to obtain immortality.
It's not too late to do it after it is perfected in the future.
"Okay then!"
Uzumaki Kushina breathed a sigh of relief. She was a little scared when she saw the three people performing the ritual.
Uzumaki Vanilla was disappointed. She also had enough awareness of becoming stronger, so that she could better help her master.
But she couldn't go against the master's will, so she could only wait.
"Ah Hao, is there a limit on the number of people who can participate in this ritual?"
Ye Yue Ai, who had been resting and adapting on the side, asked. This power must naturally be obtained by more people, so that their Cloud Hidden Village can become stronger.
"Samehada has already devoured and integrated the original power of the evil god. As long as it continues to devour the souls of others, the evil god's power will grow. In theory, it can support the ritual indefinitely."
Tamura Hao gave a positive response. The evil god itself has the ability to devour souls and the vitality of living beings to enhance its own strength.
So as long as there is enough supplementation and transformation, the power of the evil god will be inexhaustible.
"To what extent can this ritual be perfected in the end."
Fokai on the other side asked, still frightened by the previous ritual. It was a double test of the body and will, and ordinary people could not persist at all.
"The pain will not be eliminated or reduced, but the damage in all aspects will be eliminated, especially the damage in the soul level. The requirements for the body can also be reduced, and it should eventually be popularized at the level of jonin."
Tamura Hao believes that pain is a good test, and this kind of power cannot be promoted everywhere. The minimum standard must be jonin.
"Jonin is just right."
Yeyue Ai nodded and agreed with this.
This kind of power naturally cannot be spread everywhere. Not only must the body meet the standards in all aspects, but the mind must also undergo layers of tests to ensure absolute loyalty to the village, and the identity and family background must be carefully investigated.
Then there must be enough achievements. Only such hard-won power will be cherished more.
"Why don't you perform the ritual transformation?"
Uchiha Guang suddenly asked, this bad guy hasn't performed the evil god ritual yet.
I really want to see this bad guy being tossed around.
"I have too many curse seals on my body, and I need a lot of experiments to verify that there will be no impact."
He replied casually. Tamura Hao would not easily mess with himself, especially with his soul, unless he was 100% sure.
And he didn't need much for immortality. Whether it was the second eye technique obtained from Uchiha Guang, or the sufficient Grayer energy, or Izanagi, they were enough to save his life.
"Hurry up and go back to rest. There will be a battle waiting for us tomorrow."
After saying the last sentence, Tiancun Hao put the evil god altar into the sealed scroll and left. He wanted to think carefully about the many experimental data he had obtained before, especially those from Yeyue Ai and the other two.
"Tomorrow, we have to adjust the battle order, from weak to strong."
Fukai stood up, still not used to the current physical sensory enhancement, especially in terms of pain.
Even scratching the palm with a nail felt like being cut by a knife. If you don't adapt to this, even the knife will be difficult to hold.
"Then wait until the afternoon."
Yeyue Ai also knew that it would take time to adapt. Not to mention the complete adaptation, at least it should not affect the battle.
Not to mention the discussion between Yeyue Ai and Fukai, on the other side, Tiancun Hao, who returned to his residence, had not thought about it for long before he was informed that the Iron Country General Mifune had arrived, and hurried out to greet him.
"I didn't expect that you, Lord Mifune, would come here in person."
Tamura Hao was very surprised by Mifune's personal arrival. After he decided to use the samurai's fighting tradition, he wrote to his teacher Ichiro Kusama, hoping to invite a powerful samurai to come as a witness and referee, but he didn't expect that this person would come.
"This is the first time that you ninjas have used this tradition to fight a war. At the same time, it can also greatly reduce the casualties of the war, which is of great significance. Moreover, this is a war between two major countries and two major ninja villages. You can't just send people to witness it casually."
Mifune said seriously, but with a smile on his face.
Although they, the samurai, reject ninjas, it is the world of ninjas after all. They, the samurai, can only find ways to maintain their influence.
The Five Kage Conference was held that year, and it is also an opportunity now.
Of course, another main reason why he could come here in person is that the Takigakure Village and Nanao in the neighboring Taki Country are gone, and they, the Iron Country, can also breathe a sigh of relief, and he doesn't need to continue to sit in charge.
"I came here just to say hello to you. For the sake of fairness, I cannot enter your camp and will live near the battlefield you have chosen."
Since he was invited to be a witness and referee of the fight, he naturally had to maintain his own fairness and justice and not be biased towards any party.
"Thank you for your hard work, Lord Mifune. You can make any request and we will try our best to meet it."
Tamura Hao expressed his understanding. This approach is indeed better.
"We have made sufficient preparations when we came, and the public security of the country of soup is well maintained by you. It has not been destroyed by the war. We can stay here for a long time."
Mifune shook his head slightly, and then looked at the boy in front of him, asking in confusion and shock: "Have you realized the unity of man and sword?"
As a swordsman who has realized the unity of man and sword, he is very clear about this power and can also vaguely sense it in the boy in front of him.
Although it feels a bit weird, it is essentially the same.
It's just that this practice is too fast, and this child is only thirteen years old this year.
A thirteen-year-old swordsman is really hard to believe.
"With the help of some external forces and opportunities, I was lucky enough to comprehend that realm."
Tamura Hao nodded with a smile, and did not hide it.
Anyway, Mifune will see it when they fight tomorrow.
This affirmative response made Mifune speechless for a long time. Before, it was just an uncertain guess, who would have thought it was true.
"Look forward to your performance tomorrow."
After saying this, Mifune turned and left, but with a happy smile on his face.
The appearance and achievements of the child made him see the future of their samurai. Perhaps the seeds of samurai can blossom and bear fruit in the ninja system.
Running quickly with such a happy mood, he soon arrived at the camp on the other side of the Konoha front. He had sent a visiting card before.
At this time, Uchiha Zhili was welcoming outside the camp. After confirming Mifune's identity, he brought him to Uchiha Mingjing.
"Yunyin invites you to be a witness of the battle."
Uchiha Mingjing was surprised and puzzled. This person's identity was not ordinary. He was the general of the Iron Country, with a status equivalent to the shadow of their five major ninja villages. He was also a veteran strong man who participated in the first Ninja World War.
"It is an honor for me to be a witness of this war. I promise to make a fair and just judgment in this battle and will never favor any party."
Sanfune said in a deep voice, with an extremely serious expression.
"We trust the reputation of Sanfune-sama. We will trouble you for the next battle."
Uchiha Mingjing nodded in approval. Although he didn't know what the Cloud Village was going to do, he was very clear about the position of the Iron Country. It was indeed unlikely that he would directly join a party to participate in the Ninja World War.
"In order to maintain fairness, I can't stay for long. Goodbye!"
Sanfune didn't stay for long and got up to say goodbye.
Uchiha Zhili sent him out of the camp, and then returned to see Uchiha Mingjing in deep thought.
"No need to think too much."
He said a word of comfort, and at the same time raised his hand to use the palm magic to relieve the pressure on Uchiha Mingjing's eyes.
Now they are too passive, and the information is limited, so it is useless to think more.
"It will take a while, and the fusion of pupil power is more difficult than expected."
Feeling the surge of pupil power in his eyes, Uchiha Mingjing sighed helplessly.
The transplantation of pupil skills was relatively smooth, but it was difficult to use it, especially the fusion with his father's pupil power, which required a long time to run in.
"Maybe the Hidden Cloud Village still wants to delay the war to deal with other ninja villages."
Uchiha Zhili made a relatively optimistic guess.
They had a good understanding with the Hidden Cloud Village before. Although there were many conflicts between them, they were very restrained and had little casualties. They only consumed a large number of ninja tools and detonating tags.
It is obvious that the Hidden Cloud Village did not really want to go to war with them. This time it was just the strong request of the other three ninja villages.
"I hope so!"
Uchiha Mingjing also hoped so, it would be much easier.
"According to the information sent by the third generation, the Hidden Cloud Village seems to have been attacked by a mysterious person and suffered heavy losses. That's why they are so conservative."
This is the information sent by the third generation recently, so that they can take the opportunity to severely damage the Hidden Cloud Ninja Army on the front line.
It's just too difficult to severely damage the tens of thousands of Hidden Cloud Ninja Army, especially since their Jinchūriki has mastered the killer move of the Tailed Beast Ball.
Their Mangekyō is very strong, but it is still useless against the forbidden killer move of the Tailed Beast Ball.
The most fatal thing is that the Mangekyō has a limit on the use of it. If you use it too much, you will go blind, while the Tailed Beast Ball of the Tailed Beast Jinchūriki can be fired continuously.
There is no way to fight at all!
Unless he can improve his eyes to the level of Uchiha Madara and push Susanoo to the perfect form.
Such power can suppress even the real tailed beast, not to mention the tailed beast Jinchūriki.
Unfortunately, no one knows how Uchiha Madara improved his eyes to that level. Even in the end, his body was sealed by the first and second generation Hokage, and his eyes must have fallen into the hands of the Senju clan.
Even my father did not find any clues about this.
Not only Uchiha Mingjing was worried about tomorrow's battle, but Sarutobi Hiruzen and others who got the news from Konoha were also shocked and confused.
"The Jinchūriki of the Hidden Cloud Village has actually mastered the Tailed Beast Ball."
Utatane Koharu looked very unhappy. The Tailed Beast Ball is the most powerful killing move of the Tailed Beast and Jinchūriki, and it is also the power that they are most afraid of.
Although it is not a sure kill for the top strong, it is fatal to ninjas below the level of Kage.
If Konoha is hit by a Tailed Beast Ball, the whole village will be wiped out.
"When I first obtained the Uzumaki clan's inheritance in the Hidden Cloud Village, I had some guesses, but I didn't expect it to happen so soon."
Mitomon En wiped his glasses, and was also troubled by this.
The Hidden Cloud Village, which has the perfect tailed beast Jinchuriki, has taken the initiative, and the next war will be difficult to fight.
Fortunately, it is the Uchiha who is leading the battle line there, and weakening the Uchiha is beneficial to them.
"This time, the Third Raikage still did not take action, and even his son was the one leading the war. The Hidden Cloud Village is likely to still not want a decisive battle."
Sarutobi Hiruzen said a key point, although it was just a guess, but it was almost certain.
It is obvious that the Hidden Cloud Village's attitude towards the war is still perfunctory, and the village's real strong men have not been sent to the battlefield, especially the Third Raikage.
You must know that in the last Ninja World War, the Third Raikage was the leader of the front line and kept fighting on the front line.
But this time, the Ninja World War stayed in the Hidden Cloud Village most of the time. Is that mysterious force really that scary?
The two men's hearts sank at this. They really hope that the Uchiha will suffer a heavy blow, otherwise, after they overthrow the Senju faction, the Uchiha will probably jump out to attack.
That would be too dangerous. The Uchiha must be weakened before dealing with the Senju faction. It would be best if they could destroy it.
"We have to slow down the plan. We can make plans after we survive this Ninja World War. We can be more relaxed at that time."
Sarutobi Hiruzen said indifferently, and he did not want to take action against the Senju faction immediately.
The main reason is that the current war situation is too unfavorable to Konoha. The four major ninja villages have formed an alliance to jointly target them. Konoha, and the death of Mito-sama and the leakage of information have made the four major ninja villages have no scruples.
The next war will only be more difficult to fight. At this stage, we can't deal with the Senju faction, otherwise once the battlefield of the Grass Country gets out of control, it will be troublesome for the Hidden Rock Village to attack.
"Then deal with Uchiha first."
Utatane Koharu agreed to this proposal. The current situation is indeed very bad, but Uchiha must be weakened before plotting against the Senju clan.
"The Hidden Cloud Village also needs to be guarded. We can't let the things that happened to the Hidden Cloud Village and the Hidden Mist Village happen here."
Mito Kado En attaches more importance to the Hidden Cloud Village. That kind of long-range delivery secret technique is too unsolvable. To some extent, it is more difficult to deal with than the Flying Thunder God Technique of Teacher Tobirama.
Last time, the Third Raikage led his men to directly deliver them to the Hokage Building to start a battle, catching them off guard.
If the Hidden Cloud Village intervenes again and takes away the remnants of the two clans when they are plotting against the Uchiha and the Senju clan, it will be a pit.
"That may be an opportunity."
Taking a puff of smoke, Sarutobi Hiruzen said in a faint tone.
He has not forgotten the last time he was attacked by the Third Raikage. He has always kept it in his mind and is waiting for an opportunity to return it double.
Moreover, the Third Raikage who possesses this kind of delivery ability is indeed a trouble and must be eliminated, otherwise it will be difficult to sleep peacefully in the future.
"He will definitely bring the ninja army with him, which is not easy to capture, and the Third Raikage is very powerful. The title of the strongest spear and the strongest shield is not a false name."
Mitomon Yan frowned. The last time he delivered not only one Third Raikage, but also hundreds of Jonin.
Not to mention that the Third Raikage himself is very powerful. The two major ninja techniques of Thunder Release Armor and Hell Stab are extremely powerful. He is almost an unsolvable existence, and it is difficult to surround and kill him.
"The Four Red Yang Formation is enough to form a blockade. What I am worried about is that the Cloud Ninja will go crazy and destroy the Senju clan at that time."
With a look of sadness on his face, Sarutobi Hiruzen still paid attention to his own personality, but Utatane Koharu and Mitomon En's eyes lit up and they understood what their old friend meant.
Yes, then they can just pin the destruction of the Senju clan on the Hidden Cloud Village, so that they can get away with it.
"The Four Red Yang Formation requires four Kage-level masters to perform. Only you and Danzo are not enough. I'm afraid that Toufeng will not agree."
Mitomon En began to think about who to find to perform the Four Red Yang Formation. Now only Hiruzen and Danzo are qualified, and Akimichi Toufeng's position tends to be neutral.
Hiruzen's three disciples are definitely not good enough, especially Tsunade and Jiraiya.
"I have my own plans in this regard."
Sarutobi Hiruzen took another puff of smoke, and did not explain much, but was thinking about the research progress of that disciple in his heart.
It is not easy to find trustworthy Kage-level masters nowadays, but many have passed away, such as his own father.
For the sake of the village and the family, he can only disturb his old man's sleep.
Seeing that the old friend was unwilling to say more, the two did not ask any more questions. They had always trusted this old friend.
"How far have Minato Namikaze and his team controlled the power of the Nine-Tails? When will they be able to master the Tailed Beast Ball?"
Asking about the two Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, they needed mature Tailed Beast Jinchuriki to fight against the four major ninja villages, especially the Hidden Cloud Village.
