Promising the future ahead of time, starting with Naruto

Chapter 197 Mei Terumi's Shock, Black Zetsu's Scheme
Genichi Kishita naturally did not propose any conditions specifically targeting Mei.

We can't just follow the example of Kirigakure and offer conditions like keeping Mei Terumi or marrying her, can we?
Genichi Kinoshita will probably be chased and beaten by Tsunade for three blocks!
As for the negotiations with Kirigakure, Genichi Koushi didn't bother to waste his time participating, feeling that it was enough to leave it to Minato Namikaze and the others.

After leaving the Hokage Building, Genichi Kishiro strolled towards the experimental base, taking the opportunity to think about and organize his future training strategies and plans.

The immediate gains from this cheat weren't many; I only gained Electromagnetic Escape and Dust Escape.

But there are many hidden gains, including Storm Release, Steel Release, Mental Manipulation, and Scorching Release Bloodline Elimination.

"I'll put aside the possibility of more bloodline limits for now. I'll focus on mastering the bloodline limits I have on hand first, and then integrate them."

Besides the bloodline powers mentioned above, there are also those of the tailed beasts, which Genichi Koushi has been gradually analyzing.

Lava Release, Melt Release, Boil Release, Flame Release...

"It will probably take a long time to fully integrate these bloodline powers."

"Thank goodness I can use cheat codes..."

Genichi Shushita's main focus these days is actually on Sage Transformation. The fusion of Bloodline Limit and Bloodline Elimination has been left to his clones.

The transformation into a celestial being is of paramount importance!
In addition, there is the increase in the upper limit of combat power. Therefore, the importance of bloodline elimination and the Truth-Seeking Ball that integrates the seven nature transformations is greater than these bloodline limits that are already in our hands.

"Xuanyi!"

Upon hearing the shout, Genichi, who was standing under the tree, gathered his thoughts and turned around. He saw Kurenai Yuhi standing in front of a shop, waving at him.

Wait, isn't that burgundy-haired girl next to me... Mei Terumi?

Genichi under the tree turned around and stepped forward: "Red!"

Mei Terumi was also sizing up Genichi under the tree: "He really is a handsome man, no, he should be called a boy."

"But does this guy really look like he's the same age as me?"

Looking at the tall and handsome Genichi Kinoshita, Mei Terumi had some doubts about Genichi Kinoshita's real age.

He was nearly 1.8 meters tall, with a strong yet well-proportioned physique, exuding a strong masculine aura, and the mark on his forehead added a touch of mystery.

hiss!
Mei Terumi gasped, "Oh no, damn it... I think I'm starting to fall for her!"

She wasn't love-struck; on the contrary, under the oppressive environment of Kirigakure, she had a clear mind. Otherwise, she would probably have died long ago if she had mastered her bloodline limit.

But it has to be said that this man in front of her has taken root in her heart.

Kurenai then introduced, "Genichi, this is Mei Terumi, a Jonin from Kirigakure."

"Mei Terumi, a Jonin, and this is Genichi Koushi, a Jonin from our Konoha."

Mei Terumi maintained a calm expression, took a deep breath, and said very politely, "Lord Genichi, hello, I am Mei Terumi!"

Genichi smiled and nodded: "Hello, I've heard of you."

Terumi Mei was surprised, as she was usually very low-key. She felt a chill run down her spine, but said on the surface, "It is a great honor to be remembered by Lord Xuan Yi."

"I have long heard of your reputation. I wonder if I would have the honor of learning from you?"

Kurenai Yuhi was surprised.

Is the smell of gunpowder so strong?

Moreover, how dare this guy challenge Xuan Yi?

Kurenai Yuhi sensed something was wrong and looked at Mei Terumi with suspicion: Could this woman have taken a liking to Genichi?

Genichi Shushita, however, treated Mei with special regard. Knowing her reputation and strength, he still dared to ask her for guidance.

That's courageous!
Then I'll grant your wish!
"You're too kind to ask for my advice. Let's just consider this a friendly exchange between our two villages!"

As he spoke, Genichi said to Kurenai, "Kurenai, let's find a quiet place!"

Kurenai Yuhi nodded: "No problem, come with me."

So the three of them left the bustling city center and came to a secluded place.

The area is surrounded by trees on all four sides, with a spacious meadow in the middle.

Kurenai Yuhi stood under a tree at the edge of the grassy side, with Genichi and Mei Terumi standing about twenty meters apart.

"I'm about to begin, Lord Xuan Yi!"

Mei Terumi gave a solemn low shout, while simultaneously raising her hands to form a hand seal.

Xuan nodded under the tree: "Okay."

"This is the bloodline limit I have mastered: Boil Release!"

Mei Terumi used only one seal, explained something, and then spat out a high-temperature corrosive gas that swept towards Genichi under the tree.

Boiling Escape-The Art of Qiao Mist!

Wherever these gases passed, Kurenai could clearly see the grass on the lawn being rapidly corroded and dissolved.

"So strong!"

The red pupils of the evening sun contracted sharply.

Xuan Yi stood motionless under the tree, but thick armor quickly formed on his body, and in the blink of an eye, he was enveloped in an ice man three or four meters tall.

chi chi~~
The surface of the ice figure was corroded by high-temperature acid mist, melting little by little, leaving it pitted and uneven.

However, the dissolution rate is not fast.

Mei Terumi clearly saw that the dissolved areas would soon return to normal.

"Such powerful Ice Release. The Snow Clan is no match for it. No wonder the Third Mizukage died at his hands, and the Fourth Mizukage respected him immensely, even though they were enemies."

While secretly surprised, Mei Terumi cast her spell again.

Since boiling doesn't work, let's try a more corrosive acid.

Lava Release: The Technique to Lava Monsters!
Mei Terumi opened her mouth and spat out a milky white slurry that wrapped around the ice man, completely enveloping him.

Kurenai Yuhi was surprised again: "Another...another bloodline limit?"

"This woman..."

Looking at Mei Terumi again, Kurenai Yuhi's gaze was completely different.

No wonder he dared to challenge Xuan Yi; he actually possessed two bloodline limits at the same time.

In Konoha, only Genichi Koushi could achieve this.

Inside the Ice Man, Xuan Yi watched the rate at which the ice outside was corroding under the tree.

It can only be said that its power is not bad, but it's just so-so against the Ice Release of Bloodline Elimination.

With arms raised, the ice man tore it open to the sides, and the solution was lifted up.

Immediately afterwards, the ice on the surface of the ice figure broke off and fell to the ground along with the solution.

"It was resolved so easily."

Mei Terumi was somewhat taken aback.

Shuxia Xuanyi smiled and said, "It's my turn..."

Mei Terumi was on guard and immediately leaped backward, raising her hands to form a hand seal.

But before she could use her ninjutsu, she was suddenly frozen into an ice sculpture in mid-air and then crashed onto the grass with a thud.

Kurenai Yuhi's eyes widened, then she exclaimed with genuine joy, "As expected of Genichi!"

Amidst the icy chill, Mei Terumi's eyes darted about, her heart filled with horror.

She was completely unaware of the attack and was instantly frozen in ice.

With barely managing to open her mouth slightly, Mei Terumi exhaled high-temperature corrosive gas, attempting to corrode the solid ice and break the seal.

"Damn it, the temperature is too low. My body is stiff, and I can hardly mobilize my chakra anymore."

Mei Terumi was soon unable to move at all. Even though she had mastered Boil Release and could change its nature within her body to maintain her body temperature, the temperature of the ice was too low. The layers of ice eroded and sealed her, causing her chakra that she could refine to decrease rapidly.

Suddenly, the ice melted rapidly, dissipating into the air bit by bit.

However, it was Genichi under the tree who took the initiative to dispel the spell.

Mei Terumi quickly used Boil Release to restore her body temperature, then gasped for breath. Her gaze toward Genichi under the tree was filled with awe, and... a different emotion hidden deep in her eyes.

Genichi Kishita asked with a smile, "Jonin Terumi Mei, are you alright?"

Mei Terumi stopped catching her breath and shook her head, saying, "I'm fine."

"Compared to Lord Xuan Yi, my strength is indeed insignificant. I am truly being presumptuous."

Xuan Yi under the tree said, "That's an exaggeration."

"Among your peers, you are already outstanding. In the entire ninja world, only I can surpass you."

Kakashi might not be able to compare to Mei Terumi, who has mastered two bloodline limits.

"You flatter me too much, Lord Xuanyi."

Mei Terumi was slightly shy, but her expression remained completely composed.

The exchange ended there.

Genichi Kishita smiled and said, "Mei Terumi, I have high hopes for your future. Good luck!"

"If you can't stay in Kirigakure, you can come to Konoha."

Terumi Mei paused for a moment, then said solemnly, "Thank you for your kindness, Lord Genichi. The village is very good, and we have no intention of defecting."

Genichi smiled, nodded to Kurenai Yuhi, and then disappeared from the spot.

This time, he went directly to his underground experimental base to continue his work.

Tsunade did not directly participate in the negotiations with Kirigakure this time, but instead handed it over to the younger Minato Namikaze to preside over.

Coincidentally, the envoy from Kirigakure was also a young Jonin named Ao.

That evening, Genichi Kishita returned home from the lab. After Ina Uzumaki finished washing up, he took out the scroll belonging to the "Mental Control" bloodline limit: "Ina, try this!"

"Eh?"

"Have you developed any new illusions?"

Uzumaki Ina curiously took the scroll, opened it, and was shocked: "Bloodline Limit?"

"Xuan Yi, have you mastered another illusion-type bloodline limit?"

"That's amazing!" Uzumaki Ina looked up at Genichi under the tree, her eyes sparkling.

Genichi smiled without explaining, then flicked his finger onto Ina's forehead: "This should suit you better than Kyoka Suigetsu!"

Uzumaki Ina covered her forehead and gasped, then nodded emphatically: "Yes, this time I definitely won't let Lord Genichi down!"

Genichi Shushita pinched the woman's cheek: "I'm not disappointed. Everyone has different talents. I believe you can do it!"

"Let's go, let's work together!"

That day, the study light didn't go out until very late.

……

Time flies, and before they knew it, the peace talks with Kirigakure had ended. Mei Terumi left Konoha with complicated emotions.

Shuxia Xuan did not appear, continuing to immerse himself in his own world of cultivation.

And in the blink of an eye, it was Naruto's full moon day.

On this day, Genichi and Ina arrived at Minato's house with gifts.

We had fewer guests today than at the last wedding.

Besides Genichi Kinoshita and Ina Uzumaki, there are only three others: Rin Nohara, Obito Uchiha, and Kakashi.

The gifts Kakashi and his friends gave them were toys like wooden swords, kunai, and shuriken.

Genichi looked at Naruto, who had no beard on the rocking chair, and felt a little unfamiliar with him.

He reached out and lifted Naruto's two short legs, and only after looking at them did he feel relieved.

Thankfully, Naruto didn't turn into a girl.

Kushina Uzumaki and Minato Namikaze looked at each other, bewildered, and then couldn't help but laugh or cry.

Nodding in satisfaction, Genichi Shushita took out his gift and put it on Naruto's head.

It was a necklace, with an ice-blue gemstone on the pendant, sealing the sage technique Ice Release chakra of Genichi Shuka.

Kushina Uzumaki couldn't help but laugh and said, "Xuanyi, is this gift for a girl?"

Genichi Shushita picked up Naruto, who was reaching for the necklace, and laughed, "No, it's for a real man."

If Naruto is the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, then the necklace could have the same effect as the necklace left behind by the First Hokage, which was worn by Tsunade.

Of course, the necklace itself is also a locator, because it contains Genichi Kishita's chakra.

Now that Naruto is no longer a Jinchuriki of a Tailed Beast, the chakra within the necklace can still save his life in dangerous situations.

What Naruto will become in the future is not important; what matters is now.

After having lunch at Minato Namikaze's house, Genichi Kinoshita took his leave with Ina Uzumaki.

On the way home, Uzumaki Ina smiled enviously and said, "Naruto is so cute!"

"I wonder if Kushina and the others will have another child. It would be even better if it were a daughter."

Under the tree, Genichi held her hand and said, "You'll have children someday too, and they'll definitely be very cute."

Uzumaki Ina blushed immediately, but nodded with great delight: "Mm!"

She couldn't help but think, "The child I have with Xuan Da will definitely be outstanding in the future!"

Uzumaki Ina couldn't help but wonder, should she have a daughter or a son?
Or having twins, a boy and a girl, would be great!

22-year-old Nao Uzumaki is full of dreams and expectations for the future.

……

After parting ways with Uzumaki Ina, Genichi Kishita arrived at the underground experimental base.

"Huh, mute?"

Genichi was a little surprised that Shizune would be here at this time.

"Xuan Yi, is it over already?"

Silently looking up, she was pleasantly surprised.

Shushita Gen nodded and stepped forward: "Yes, it's just a meal to celebrate."

"What are you studying?"

"A neurotoxin," said the voice in silence.

After saying that, she suddenly asked, "Xuanyi, if I were to develop my bloodline limit, which direction should I go?"

Seeing Shizune's slightly troubled expression, Genichi Shushita said seriously, "It's best to choose something you're familiar with and good at to make a breakthrough."

"You have a great talent for poison, and you can also use Yang Release to change your nature. Perhaps you can start from this aspect."

Jingyin nodded. Actually, she had thought about this as well, but she had no idea what to do.

Genichi Kishita analyzed, "Any bloodline limit is based on the fusion of two nature transformations to form a new nature transformation, and chakra has the ability to be transformed into matter."

"For example, Water Release and Earth Release are rooted in the most basic components of chakra, namely spiritual power and physical power, which extend to Yin Release, which represents spiritual power, and Yang Release, which represents physical power."

"The power of Yin Release is to create a tangible form from nothingness, while Yang Release is to infuse life into that form."

"The Yin-Yang Escape Technique can create all things, but in reality, any change in nature possesses some characteristics of the Yin-Yang Escape Technique."

"Of course, in order to distinguish it from the power of Yin-Yang Escape Technique to create all things, I call it the transformation of energy and matter."

During this time, Genichi Shushita studied the Yin-Yang Escape Technique and made considerable progress.

Shizune nodded repeatedly as she listened, understanding what Genichi was saying. Her eyes lit up as she asked, "Genichi, do you mean I can first use chakra nature transformation to prepare and manufacture a potent poison?"

Xuan Yi under the tree nodded: "Not bad."

They delved into the study of various deadly poisons, understanding all their properties and structures, and then used chakra to create them.

This involves using chakra to transform into a potent poison, which can then be used for direct attacks or poisoning.

Genichi Kishita believed that even without his reminder, Shizune would gradually grasp this point as she continued to study it more deeply.

In the original timeline, the future Shizune did indeed manage to directly use chakra to create the necessary poison for her attacks.

However, guided by a more thorough theory, the path after silence might be smoother.

"I am not good with poison, but I am proficient in all seven basic property transformations."

Genichi under the tree asked, "Shizune, do you know why it's these seven fundamental property changes?"

Shizune shook her head in confusion; this was something the ninja academy definitely hadn't taught.

Shuxia Xuanyi said, "I've already explained Yang Release and Yin Release. Now let's talk about the more common Water Release, Lightning Release, Wind Release, Fire Release, and Earth Release."

"Firstly, the narrow understanding of water escape is the water we commonly see, while the broad understanding should be liquid."

"That's why I developed sulfuric acid water, and Konoha's Water Release also has a special Water Release ninjutsu with very strong viscosity."

"In fact, my sulfuric acid solution is also toxic."

The silence suddenly dawned on him.

Genichi Shushita continued, "As for Earth Release, in a narrow sense, it refers to soil, while in a broader sense, it can be understood as solid matter."

"Wind Release can be broadly understood as gaseous matter."

"Lightning Release can be broadly understood as a plasma state. Fire Release, on the other hand, is somewhere between a gaseous state and a plasma state."

"This is my understanding of the changes in properties in terms of the state of matter. Wind, fire, thunder, water, and earth, plus yang and yin, can actually create any kind of matter in the world, as well as life."

"You can refer to and learn from this, for example, whether various highly toxic substances can be formulated and produced using conventional property changes."

Shizune's eyes were already sparkling: "Xuan Yi, you're amazing!"

Although it was her first time hearing about plasma, she didn't understand it.

But liquid, solid, and gaseous states are very easy to understand.

Genichiro touched the smooth, silent hair and said, "I hope this helps you."

For him, pointing out the mute option is also a way of organizing what he has learned.

By reviewing the old and learning the new, Genichi Kishita felt that he had gained a deeper understanding and insights into the nature of chakra and Yin-Yang Release techniques from the guidance he received from Shizune.

"Of course it is of great help."

Jingyin said seriously, "I already have some ideas."

Genichi Shushita immediately encouraged him, "Then do your best!"

"Ok!"

Silently nodded emphatically, then turned and got to work.

Her next step is to select a suitable potent poison as a sample and try to configure it using chakra nature transformation.

Seeing Shizune get busy, Genichi Shushita also turned around and left the toxicology lab to begin his own work.

And at the same time.

Above the mountain graveyard, where Genichi Kishita, Madara Uchiha, and Tetsuka Uchiha had previously fought, Orochimaru appeared here.

Looking at the traces left by the battle, Orochimaru smiled: "It seems this is the right place."

"This battle was even more intense than the one with Uchiha Tetsuka!"

"Since Xuan Yi-jun found this place and even fought here, then the place where Uchiha Madara hid before should be nearby."

Orochimaru lowered his body, opened his mouth, which was unusually large, and then countless snakes of all sizes surged out of his mouth like a tidal wave, before scattering in all directions.

After summoning a massive number of snakes to search for traces, Orochimaru stood up and waited quietly.

What Orochimaru didn't realize was that Black Zetsu was watching him from afar on the mountain: "Heh, it seems the plan is going very smoothly."

"If Orochimaru gets his hands on Madara's corpse, he will definitely be unable to resist studying it."

"Based on the information Konoha currently possesses, we should soon be able to obtain facts that are close to the truth."

"But... if we want to verify something, we have to revive Madara."

"Orochimaru shouldn't have a hard time mastering the Impure World Reincarnation technique, right?"

"However, if we want Madara to unleash his full power, we'll probably need to help Orochimaru again!"
