The Hidden Mist Blacksmith, forging the glory of the Ninja Sword Style!

"If Yoshikame Hoshigaki were to wield this, his strength would undoubtedly be greatly enhanced."

"Moreover, an additional circuit can be designed."

As for the other swords, Uehara Osamu doesn't have any good ideas for modification at the moment.

In the afternoon, Uehara Osamu entered the forging room.

The smelting was completed yesterday, and forging can begin today.

"Water Breathing, Water Hammer!"

Once the basic shape was achieved, Uehara Shu switched to another new breathing training method that he had just mastered.

"Breathing Water, Tide Hammer!"

With each hammer blow, obvious marks appeared on the blade.

Like waves resembling fish scales.

Chapter 228 The Contract Partner of the Soul-Stealing Blade (Dragon Scale Blade)

"All right."

Uehara Shu looked at the finished blade and let out a soft breath.

Because of the new forging method, Uehara Shu suffered much greater mental and physical exhaustion than before.

Throughout the process, I actually felt a sense of exhaustion.

I feel even more tired than last night when I was busy until midnight.

"The next step is to inlay the dragon scales."

This is a delicate task, but it doesn't require much physical exertion.

After resting for a while, Uehara Shu took out the dragon scale.

These are the scales on a dragon-man's body.

However, the scales are not all the same.

Uehara Shu took out a dragon scale and pressed it tightly against the pattern on the blade. At the same time, he gripped the hilt and channeled a burst of fire-attribute chakra into the blade.

Thanks to this effect, the scales fit the blade even more perfectly.

After the entire bonding process was completed, Uehara Osamu placed the blade directly into the furnace.

Simultaneously.

"Chakra Fusion Technique".

However, the purpose of this process is not to melt the metal.

Instead, the dragon scales are perfectly integrated into the blade.

By utilizing high temperatures and the inherent properties of dragon scales, the dragon scales are allowed to penetrate the metal, thereby spreading the power of the dragon scales throughout the entire blade, thus completing the forging of the ninja sword.

As for sharpening, it is not necessary to sharpen the entire blade; only the blade edge needs to be sharpened.

There are no dragon scales on the blade.

On the third day, Uehara Osamu entered the polishing room.

Congratulations, host, on completing the forging.

The Soul-Stealing Dragon Scale Blade has been successfully forged.

Completion level: Excellent.

Congratulations, host, you have gained 2000 swordsmanship experience points.

A voice rang in Uehara Shu's mind.

Uehara Shu picked up the Soul-Stealing Blade.

It looks like a large sword.

The blade is smooth and sharp.

Above the blade, you can clearly see layers of green scales.

A flood of information came in.

Soul-Stealing Dragon Scale Blade.

Type: Broadsword.

Quality: Excellent.

Ability: Soul Steal 1 absorbs the opponent's moves and returns them with the same moves.

Ability: Soul Stealing 2 - absorbs chakra upon collision.

Ability: Dragon Transformation transforms the user into a dragon, strengthening their body, but it has certain side effects.

Note: According to the third rule of the blacksmith, the power of this ninja tool cannot be applied to the blacksmith.

The first ability and the second ability were exactly what Uehara Osamu had anticipated.

But the third one surprised Uehara Osamu somewhat.

Uehara Osamu recalled.

"In the original storyline, when Dao Qiu used the Soul-Stealing Blade, very obvious dragon scales grew on his arm. This so-called dragon transformation should refer to this. With the growth of dragon scales, his defensive capabilities and strength are greatly enhanced."

"As for Dao Qiu, his spirit was greatly affected because he could not withstand the demonic power of the Soul-Snatching Blade."

"In the end, they even became puppets controlled by the Soul-Stealing Blade."

"This must be a side effect."

Uehara Shu frowned slightly.

"Of all the ninja swords I've forged, this one has the most obvious side effects."

"I don't know if China and Kyrgyzstan can withstand it."

"In terms of compatibility, Zhongji and the Soul-Stealing Blade should be a good match."

"Then let Zhongji decide whether or not to enter into a contract."

"Fortunately, due to the blacksmith's rules, at least I don't need to worry about using this Soul-Stealing Blade."

"If China and Kyrgyzstan can withstand it, that would be the best."

Two figures followed behind Uehara Shuu.

One is Da Tian.

The other one is Kaguya Spring Water.

The three of them arrived at the Water Shadow Building.

"Minister Uehara."

The ninja guards at the gate were no longer just showing respect.

"I'm looking for Lord Mizukage."

"I'll report right away. Minister Uehara, would you like to rest in the conference room for a moment?"

"can."

I had barely sat down when the guard ninja returned.

"Minister Uehara, the Mizukage is not busy at the moment, so you can go directly over there."

"Okay, thank you."

"Minister Uehara, you're too kind."

Upon entering the Mizukage's office, Yagura stood up and greeted Osamu Uehara.

"build."

"Mizukage-sama."

"But what's the matter?"

"Lord Mizukage, it's like this. I've recently forged a new Zanpakuto that has the ability to absorb chakra and ninjutsu."

Yagura's eyes immediately lit up.

"The second sword of wisdom that absorbs chakra?"

Uehara Shu shook his head.

“There are some differences between the two.”

The Soul-Stealing Blade absorbs ninjutsu and returns it in the form of ninjutsu.

The Sword of Wisdom, on the other hand, absorbs ninjutsu and transfers the chakra of ninjutsu to the user.

The Soul-Stealing Blade needs to come into contact with the target to absorb chakra.

Secondly, the Sword of Wisdom possesses self-awareness, while the Soul-Stealing Blade can enhance the user.

Third, the Sword of Wisdom is just a bit foul-mouthed, but the Soul-Stealing Blade has psychological side effects.

“Lord Mizukage, I’ve heard that there’s a ninja in our village named Nakayoshi who possesses a special bloodline limit, Dark Release, which allows him to absorb enemy ninjutsu. He might be a good match for this Zanpakuto.”

"Is it auspicious?"

Yagura recalled.

"There is such a ninja, but he is not in the village now."

"Here's what I'll do. I'll make arrangements for him to return to the village as soon as possible and get to your place repaired immediately."

"Before that, should we let other ninjas try?"

Uehara Osamu said, "It's worth a try, but the chances are slim."

"Hey Xiu, can you do me a favor? There are just too many people who crave the approval of a Zanpakuto. Some of them can't even refuse me, the Mizukage."

"Xiu, how about this?"
