Chapter 231 A New Eye Technique (Please Subscribe and Vote)

"Still having a headache over Xuan Yi's bloodline limit?"

Inside the study, Chizuki appeared behind Sarutobi Shinnosuke and gently stroked her husband's furrowed brow.

Sarutobi Shinnosuke relaxed his brows and smiled, "Not really."

"It's Steel Release, Xuan Yi's supplementary information on Steel Release."

"Geniuses are truly unattainable!"

Sarutobi Shinnosuke was deeply moved.

As Qian Yue looked at the scroll, she laughed and said, "Xuan Yi is not a genius, but a monster."

"Where can a genius be so monstrous?"

Upon hearing this, Sarutobi Shinnosuke was immediately disillusioned, and then nodded repeatedly.

"Full-body tempering... elementalization?"

Qian Yue asked, "Similar to the water transformation technique of the Hidden Mist Village?"

Sarutobi Shinnosuke nodded: "Yes."

"Currently, I can only perform bone tempering and skin surface tempering."

Chizuki pondered, "The Earth Release: Hardening technique used in Iwagakure seems to only involve hardening the skin."

"And then there's Kakuzu's Earth Release: Hardening technique when he tried to assassinate the Third Hokage last time. From a tactical point of view, skin petrification and hardening are enough to deal with it."

Sarutobi Shinnosuke nodded and then shook his head: "That's true for ordinary battles, but against an enemy like Uchiha Madara, it's completely inadequate."

Qian Yue was silent for a moment, then smiled and said, "In that case, good luck! I believe in you!"

Sarutobi Shinnosuke smiled and said, "With Genichi's guidance, I do have that confidence."

"But when it comes to Xuan Yi's mission, there's still no progress."

"Do you have any good suggestions?"

Qianyue sat down next to her husband: "Shin-chan, what do you think is the key point of the bloodline limit that Genichi wants?"

Sarutobi Shinnosuke asked in surprise, "Isn't it a Fire Release technique?"

Qian Yue shook her head: "I think it's Yang Release, or rather, the physical body, the eyes."

"Although in terms of effect it should be Fire Release, and Fire Release must be dominant, isn't this actually a visual perception ninjutsu?"

Sarutobi Shinnosuke nodded.

Chizuki said, "Shin-nosuke, you already have experience training in Steel Release. When combining two nature transformations, one often takes the lead. Right now, this bloodline limit appears to be dominated by Fire Release, but in reality, Fire Release is serving the eyes and the Yang Release, isn't it?"

Sarutobi Shinnosuke pondered his wife's words for a while, and then his eyes lit up: "That makes sense."

"I intend to use Fire Release as the guiding principle, but in reality, it should be based on Yang Release nature transformation, and specifically on a special part of the body."

"It must be said that this kind of variant bloodline limit in a certain part is indeed different from the ordinary bloodline limit."

Chizuki nodded, then smiled and said, "Shin-chan, I have something to tell you."

Sarutobi Shinnosuke asked in confusion, "What is it?"

Qian Yue said, "I'm pregnant."

"Ok?"

Sarutobi Shinnosuke was stunned for a moment, then jumped up: "Pregnant?"

"When?"

"really?"

"I'm going to be a dad?"

……

At Fugaku Uchiha's house.

After playing with his younger brother for a while, Itachi Uchiha came to his father and asked, "Dad, can I ask you a few questions?"

Fugaku Uchiha, who was feeding the fish, turned his head: "Is it about ninjutsu?"

Itachi Uchiha nodded and asked, "Father, what does it feel like when you activate the Sharingan?"

Fugaku Uchiha paused for a moment, not expecting his son to ask about this, so he said, "Itachi, don't worry about the Sharingan. You'll know when the time is right."

Itachi Uchiha said, "It's because I want to complete Lord Genichi's mission, so I want to know what it's like when the Sharingan is activated."

Fugaku Uchiha pondered for a moment, then said, "The Sharingan is awakened by a special chakra within the brains of our clan. When the time is right, it will appear and act on the optic nerve, thus awakening the Sharingan."

Uchiha Itachi seemed to be deep in thought, then bowed and said, "Thank you, Father. I'll be going now!"

Fugaku Uchiha hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

……

At Kurenai's house, Kurenai, staring at the contents of the scroll, pinched her brow and sighed inwardly, "Training for a bloodline limit is truly difficult..."

She looked up at the window, wishing things were the same as before.

She could then seek advice from Genichi under the tree.

But now she doesn't dare to go anymore.

and……

Kurenai Yuhi bit her lip as she thought of Tsunade and the other two.

She was utterly shocked when she first found out.

I gradually came to admire him.

Then they retreated.

"red!"

Suddenly, a familiar voice came from outside.

Kurenai quickly got up and went to the window: "Red Bean?"

Mitarashi Anko waved frantically from below: "How about we go eat some dumplings?"

Kurenai hesitated for a moment, then nodded: "Please wait a moment."

After saying that, she quickly packed up the scroll and went downstairs.

Walking along the road, seeing Kurenai's somewhat worried expression, Anko asked with a smile, "Are you still training that bloodline limit?"

Kurenai nodded: "Yes, it's extremely difficult!"

Red Bean pouted: "You guys are really something... You all want to master bloodline limits. If it were that easy, there wouldn't be so few ninjas in the world, would there?"

Kurenai Yuhi couldn't help but chuckle upon hearing this: "That's true, but such an opportunity is rare, and nobody wants to miss it!"

"Red Bean, once you become a Jonin, you won't be able to resist either."

Red Bean stretched and said, "I'm not going to let myself look so gloomy every day because of my cultivation!"

"Since we've encountered a problem, why don't we ask Xuan Yi for advice?"

Kurenai hesitated: "Well... Genichi is also very busy."

Hongdou's eyes darted around, and she chuckled, "Xuanyi doesn't seem to be very busy lately. I saw him spending time with the Hokage!"

"And I've heard some exciting news, do you want to hear it?"

Kurenai asked in confusion, "What news?"

Red Bean looked around and whispered like a thief, "It seems like the Hokage is pregnant!"

Kurenai Yuhi's eyes widened: "R-really?"

Red Bean nodded repeatedly.

Kurenai was a little confused.

Xuan Yi is going to have a child!
But that child wasn't his.

I feel a little uncomfortable.

Anko smiled to herself, then mischievously pulled Kurenai Yuhi along, saying, "Kurenai, let's go to Genichi's dango shop first and eat some dango, then we'll go to Genichi's house to ask him for ninjutsu lessons!"

Distracted, Kurenai nodded subconsciously, but then realized what she was doing and quickly said, "This...is this not a good idea?"

Hongdou smiled and said, "What's wrong with that?"

"If we go and ask the Hokage for ninjutsu instruction, he won't stop us, right?"

After the two finished eating the dumplings, Kurenai was half-heartedly dragged by Anko to Genichi Kinoshita's house, but Genichi Kinoshita had already taken Naruto out.

Fortunately, she still had shadow clones, so it didn't prevent Kurenai from asking for advice.

Tsunade was there too, but she didn't seem to care.

She knew what Kurenai was thinking, but she no longer cared.

I'm the boss!

……

On the other side, Genichi Shushita and Naruto bought a bunch of balloons.

"Uncle Xuanyi, why are you buying balloons?"

"I don't play with that kind of childish stuff anymore!"

Naruto said.

Shuxia Xuanyi smiled and said, "These are things we'll need for our cultivation in the future."

Naruto nodded repeatedly: "Then what kind of ninjutsu is it?"

"Is it the kind that's extremely powerful?"

Genichiro nodded: "Of course, this is the strongest ninjutsu in the ninja world!"

Is the Rasengan considered the strongest ninjutsu in the ninja world?

Doesn't count.

But it counts.

It's just an A-rank, unsealed ninjutsu, but you can stuff anything into it.

Genichi Kinoshita originally intended to teach Naruto the Sexy Jutsu.

But then I thought better of it; it would be beneath my dignity.

Just guide him gradually and let Naruto develop it on his own.

Let's wait until Naruto gets brutally beaten by Kushina before we watch the drama unfold.

We found a quiet spot and the lesson began.

Although Naruto is very young now, since he has already accomplished wading through water and climbing trees, Genichi under the tree feels there is no problem.

Moreover, this training method, which originated from Jiraiya's original timeline, is itself a way to train chakra manipulation skills.

When Genichi Kishita was training the Rasengan, he also used it to greatly improve his chakra control.

Secondly, Genichi Kinoshita also knows Naruto very well.

Naruto's somewhat impulsive nature isn't a bad thing, but he needs to have a calm mind when training. The Rasengan training can also temper Naruto's will.

From that day on, Naruto began the routine of kneading balloons and then rubber balls.

At noon, Genichi Kinoshita took Naruto back to his house for lunch.

Meanwhile, Kushina Uzumaki didn't go looking for her son either. With Genichi Kinoshita there, there was nothing to worry about. It had been a long time since she had eaten alone with her husband.

And there's a surprise too.

So, when Minato Namikaze returned home at noon, after exchanging greetings, the two of them said almost simultaneously, "Kushina (Minato), I have a surprise for you..."

The two exchanged a smile, then said in unison, "You go first."

"Hahaha……"

Kushina Uzumaki laughed heartily, holding a spatula.

Minato Namikaze scratched his head and said, "You go first!"

Kushina Uzumaki nodded, then smiled and said, "I'm pregnant!"

Minato Namikaze's eyes immediately fell on his wife's belly, and he exclaimed with great joy, "I'm going to be a father again!"

Kushina Uzumaki smiled and nodded, then asked, "And what about your surprise?"

Minato Namikaze laughed and said, "The Fourth Hokage has already decided that I will succeed him as the Fifth Hokage."

Kushina Uzumaki's eyes widened: "Really?"

"Lady Tsunade... doesn't seem to need to abdicate so soon, does she?"

Minato Namikaze scratched his head: "That's right, but, like you, Tsunade-sama is already pregnant!"

Kushina Uzumaki's eyes widened even more: "Lady Tsunade is pregnant!"

"Is...is it that guy Xuan Yi's?"

Minato Namikaze shrugged: "What else?"

"Yeah~~"

"Minato, you will become Hokage and fulfill our dream!"

Suddenly, Kushina Uzumaki screamed and then rushed to Minato Namikaze.

Minato Namikaze quickly and carefully caught it.

……

Since Tsunade became pregnant, Genichi Koushi has reduced the time he spends training in his main body and devoted more time to Tsunade.

Pregnant women are prone to emotional problems, especially "older mothers" like Tsunade.

However, he did achieve something: he became the Hokage!

So, if you're bold enough, even the Hokage can take maternity leave!

In addition, Genichi Kinoshita made another trip to the Uchiha clan and invited Naruto's mother, Mizumi Uchiha, to his home.

Tsunade was having her first child; neither Ina nor Shizune had any experience with pregnancy.

Therefore, they asked Uchiha Mizumi to protect them, which can be considered as allowing Uchiha Mizumi to integrate ahead of time and fulfilling the promise made back then.

In addition, Genichi's mother also moved in, handing over the takoyaki shop to her husband.

Genichi's father also wanted to come, but his mother stopped him with a single word.

So, the house suddenly became lively.

However, Genichi under the tree could no longer act as recklessly as before.

Tsunade wanted to give birth at home to maintain the dignity of the Hokage.

But for the sake of her son, she moved completely to Genichi's place under the tree, enjoying the feeling of being the center of attention.

Time flies, and a month has already passed in the blink of an eye.

On this day, Itachi Uchiha made a rare visit.

Genichi accompanied Tsunade out for a walk, but his shadow clones remained at home to study Yin-Yang Release techniques.

Leading Uchiha Itachi into the study, Genichi Kishita smiled and asked, "Is there something you're wondering about?"

"Yang Release or Yin Release?"

Uchiha Itachi, who had been surveying the study filled with scrolls, withdrew his gaze and said, "Lord Genichi, I have completed that bloodline limit!"

Ok?
Shuxia Xuan subconsciously raised an eyebrow: "Done?"

He was very surprised.

How long has it been?

less than a year.

Uchiha Itachi nodded seriously, like a little adult: "Yes, Lord Genichi!"

As he spoke, his eyes changed.

Genichi's gaze sharpened, and his Mirror Eyes activated.

Meanwhile, Itachi Uchiha's eyes had been dyed gold in the pupils, and even the whites of his eyes were now stained with blood vessels from the flame-patterned markings.

If it were nighttime, it would definitely be dazzling with gold.

Shuxia Xuan stood up, carefully examined the eyes, and asked with a smile, "Very good, how is the effect?"

Uchiha Itachi said, "The effect is similar to what Lord Genichi imagined. At night, it is indeed easy to distinguish different objects by their temperature."

"Furthermore, it can distinguish the strength of chakra."

“I’ve tried it. Everyone’s chakra intensity is different, and the amount of heat they emit is also different.”

Genichi Shushita was slightly surprised: "So this perception can be used even during the day."

Uchiha Itachi nodded: "The heat emitted by the chakra is even more astonishing than that of the sun under normal conditions."

"And... isn't this a shadow clone, Master Xuanyi?"

Genichi under the tree smiled and nodded: "Not bad."

"It can even distinguish between the real body and the shadow clone?"

"This is something that even the Byakugan and Sharingan cannot easily do."

What is a shadow clone?
Physical clone!

In other words, the shadow clones seen through the Byakugan are indistinguishable from the original body.

It has bones and internal organs.

The Sharingan, on the other hand, perceives chakra.

Only someone like Madara Uchiha, who had mastered the Sharingan's abilities to such a high degree and was too familiar with Hashirama Senju, could use the Sharingan to distinguish physical clones like the Wood Clone.

Even a powerful being like Kaguya Otsutsuki couldn't distinguish between a shadow clone and her original body.

"I don't quite understand why I can identify shadow clones yet."

A troubled look appeared on Itachi Uchiha's face.

Upon hearing this, Genichi Shushita said, "Is that so?"

"Then let me take a look."

As the mirror image was activated, Genichi's eyes immediately changed, his pupils turned gold, and flame-like blood vessels appeared in the whites of his eyes.

He looked at Itachi Uchiha, and in his vision, Itachi Uchiha was bright red, very dazzling.

That wasn't the body's own heat radiation, but rather the heat emanating from chakra.

Furthermore, the outline formed by this thermal radiation has two very distinct layers, with the inner layer being shallow and the outer layer being deep.

Uchiha Itachi's eyes widened at that moment.

Lord Xuan also knows this eye technique!

No, that's not right!

Could it be... a copy?
Can Master Xuanyi's mirror eye even copy bloodline limits?
Uchiha Itachi's heart was filled with turmoil.

Genichi under the tree said, "Itachi, create a shadow clone."

"Uh, yes..."

Uchiha Itachi snapped out of his daze, nodded quickly, and then formed hand seals to create a shadow clone.

Genichiro looked at Itachi Uchiha's shadow clone and immediately saw through it.

The shadow clone's heat radiation is not as obvious as the original body's two layers of heat radiation.

"I see."

Xuan Yi suddenly realized something under the tree.

Uchiha Itachi quickly asked, "Has Lord Genichi discovered something?"

Shuxia Xuan nodded: "If I'm not mistaken, the radiation layer inside the main body should belong to the light of the soul."

"This is something that shadow clones don't have."

Uchiha Itachi exclaimed in surprise: "Soul..."

Genichi smiled and nodded: "It should be right."

"Shadow clones are physical clones, and their chakra carries their spiritual consciousness, so they have their own thoughts and consciousness."

"However, shadow clones do not possess a soul, or rather, when a shadow clone is created, the person's soul does not split in two."

Soul splitting?

Even Genichi under the tree didn't dare to mess around.

His primordial spirit clone is actually just a spiritual consciousness clone, not much different from a shadow clone, and is not a separation of his soul body.

I never expected that this bloodline limit would have such a wonderful use, allowing one to perceive the light of the soul.

"Congratulations, Itachi!"

Genichi Shushita deactivated the new eye technique: "From now on, Konoha and the ninja world will have one more eye technique!"

"Have you decided on a name for this eye technique?"

Uchiha Itachi obediently shook his head: "Not yet, Lord Genichi, do you have any suggestions?"

Xuan Yi pondered for a moment, then smiled: "How about calling it... Fiery Eyes and Golden Pupils?"

Although the pupil technique is not quite worthy of it.

But Genichi Kishita felt it was a perfect match.

Uchiha Itachi blinked: "Is Master Genichi's naming... so special?"
However, thinking about what it looks like when using eye techniques, it seems... quite vivid, it's just that the sound is a bit strange.

Uchiha Itachi thought to himself, but nodded nonetheless.

You're the boss, you're the one who calls the shots!

Thus, the new name for the eye technique was decided.

Fiery eyes and golden pupils!

It is a fusion of Fire Release and Yang Release nature transformations, a bloodline limit of perception and insight.

Current abilities include night vision, the ability to perceive the light of the soul, and the ability to distinguish between the original body and its shadow clones.

It has no offensive power; it can be described as a purely perceptive and analytical eye technique.

However, it must be said that the ability to distinguish shadow clones is enough to make this eye technique shine!
