Naruto: The Age of Ninja Swords Begins in Kumogakure

"Theoretically, it's possible, but I need to learn more sealing techniques to complement them, and I also need curse seal-type techniques to help perfect them."

Tamura Hiroshi gave an affirmative response.

This is certainly possible, and it's even part of his design philosophy. It's just that he lacks sufficient knowledge at this stage to make it possible.

With enough knowledge as a foundation, he was confident that he could perfect it into something similar to a cursed seal, which could be stored directly into the cursed seal when not in use.

"Is the corpse of a Kaguya clan ninja absolutely necessary?"

Having asked one last question, Ringo Mari was relatively satisfied with the armor; the current issue was obtaining the materials.

If each set of armor required a Kaguya ninja corpse to match, that would be too much of a hassle, and they didn't want to provoke those lunatics from the Kaguya clan.

"Currently, only Kaguya's bone cells can be manipulated and transformed using the Shikotsumyaku chakra, and their strength also depends on the strength of the Shikotsumyaku chakra of the material in life; the higher the strength, the better."

However, due to the special nature of bone cells and cadaver veins, the bones of people who died within the last fifty years should be usable as materials.

The chakra core only requires relatively complete power for initial shaping. Once completed, it only needs to be equipped with a low-end version of the Shikotsumyaku chakra core to help repair minor damage caused by battle. A Kaguya ninja corpse can produce about ten low-end chakra cores.

Besides these, these bones can be colored, and once colored, it becomes very difficult to tell that they are bone.

I was just trying to combine Magnetism and Corpse Bone Veins to replace the calcium in bones with other metallic elements, further altering the bone composition while also increasing its strength and toughness. This requires support from the family, including equipment and high-purity metallic elements.

This is the main reason why Tamura Hiroshi chose to seek refuge with the Ringo family; it's unrealistic to try to do it all by himself alone.

"The materials and personnel data will be sent to you as soon as possible, and we will produce one hundred sets first."

The research materials and equipment will be prepared as soon as possible.

After thinking it over, Ringo Mari finally decided to do it.

The current era is the Ninja World War, and the two major factions in the village want to weaken each other through war, which has also affected their neutral faction.

After this war, the Ringo family will lose countless members; the key is to increase their strength as soon as possible.

As for the follow-up issues, we'll figure out a solution later.

Of course, she couldn't do this alone; her younger brother in the village had to handle it, especially digging a hole in the Kaguya clan's cemetery to retrieve the bones, which had to be done in absolute secrecy.

"I'll get it done as soon as possible."

Tamura Hao readily agreed. With a successful case already established, all that was needed now was to replicate the design. The most challenging part, however, was designing the armor's limbs based on the user's information.

"Little Apple, I have some things for cultivation. Come with me to get them."

Ringo Molly gave the big, cute boy a long look, then called her niece to come along.

"snort!"

After glaring at her perverted teammate, Yuri followed her aunt away in a huff.

Tamura Hao ignored the two who had left and continued to study the Third Kazekage's chakra core, slowly absorbing the Magnet Release chakra within it using the Chakra Absorption Technique.

He wasn't very good at using chakra absorption techniques, mainly because his own physique couldn't adapt well to the absorbed chakra.

Although the chakra of the ninja world all originated from the Sage of Six Paths and can be connected, it is clearly limited to the Sage of Six Paths and his son.

Others who want to absorb chakra through compatibility depend on their bloodline, but there is one exception: bloodline limit.

Among the many bloodline limits, there is a Dark Release that can absorb the chakra of others, and even ninjutsu.

Aside from those with highly variable natures that are difficult to absorb, he can absorb all other ninjutsu, even Kakashi's Lightning Blade.

Dark Release is a bloodline limit of Kirigakure, but this lineage is extremely rare and is almost extinct; there are very few people left in the village.

Based on his understanding, the Netherworld Release is most likely a special bloodline formed by the fusion of Yin and Water attributes.

He wanted to see if there was a chance in the future to obtain the Dark Release bloodline through transplantation, or even to directly fuse with it.

Of course, that's for the future. His current goal is to master the Chakra Absorption Technique, which can be seen as a super low-end version of Dark Release.

His body cannot quickly integrate and digest the absorbed chakra, but it can do so little by little.

Although it is impossible to fuse and obtain the chakra of a bloodline limit, it can increase the compatibility of one's own chakra with that bloodline limit, making it easier to control the bloodline limit in the future.

Leaving aside Tamura Hao's research and adaptation, Yuri followed her aunt to her room and obtained some cultivation resources that she had compiled. However, this was not the main reason why Ringo Mari had her come over.

"What do you think of that little guy?"

Ringo Mari sat on the bed and looked at her niece. She had always cherished this niece, who showed great talent and was even more outstanding than her younger brother back then.

"That's a despicable, shameless pervert."

Yuri replied without thinking, still angry, even feeling that the last time she received artificial respiration was intentional on his part.

I treated you as a teammate, but you only wanted my body.

Scumbag!

"But the value he is demonstrating at this stage is very important to you and your family."

Jasmine smiled; she actually thought highly of the two of them, mainly because the young man had shown considerable value.

"You should have heard your father mention that family secret technique; it has very strong side effects."

He damaged his body by forcing himself to cultivate, and it will be difficult for him to live past forty. If you cultivate in the future, you will probably not be able to escape this fate either.

If a trustworthy medical ninja could assist, perhaps the side effects of the secret technique could be mitigated.

Furthermore, the armor needs to be kept secret, so it's very important to you and your family. You must keep it under control, no matter what method you use.

As he finished speaking, his expression turned serious. That secret technique was very powerful, capable of pushing one's limits and reaching a level surpassing that of a Jonin, but it had significant side effects; even if one didn't die, it would damage their body.

The family has passed down the technique for hundreds of years, but very few who practice that secret art live past forty.

They did try to improve it, but they all failed. They could only rely on medical ninjutsu to alleviate their injuries and needed continuous recuperation.

This means we need to find a trustworthy medical ninja with exceptional medical skills.

There are medical ninjas in the family, but their skill level is not very high.

That kid has shown good potential; he's worth nurturing.

"oh!"

After thinking for a moment, Yuri nodded. She knew about this matter and knew that she did need a medical ninja to assist her. It was indeed necessary to capture that bastard.

But there was no need to sacrifice herself; she was confident she could keep that bastard under her thumb.

Grasp it firmly with absolute strength!

After exchanging ideas for a long time, Yuri left with the sealed scroll. Upon returning, she tossed it to someone and went to train, especially focusing on the training of chakra threads.

This is the foundation for controlling the armor in the future, and I must practice it as soon as possible.

Tamura Hao was overjoyed to receive the medicine to aid his cultivation and immediately put it into use to help him cultivate his chakra and physique.

He is in a stage of rapid growth and should not engage in high-intensity training, but with the help of these medications, there will be no problem, at least it will not affect his height growth.

Ringo Mari is quite capable; she arranged a month-long vacation for Tamura Hiroshi and his companion, and delivered the first batch of materials half a month later.

The main body is bones. According to Ringo Mari, these are the remains of members of the Kaguya clan who once reached the Jonin level. The strength of their bones is no less than that of Kaguya Moi.

Some of them even have stronger bones than Kaguya Moi, and their bones also have a grayish hue.

In addition, there are scrolls containing sealing techniques, barrier techniques, and curse seals. Kirigakure participated in the war that destroyed Uzumaki Village during World War II and gained a lot of wealth from the Uzumaki clan. As a major clan in Kirigakure, the Ringo family naturally also gained a lot.

Tamura Hao was very satisfied with this batch of materials and immediately began to work on it, first turning the appropriately sized insect-type spirit beast corpses into beast puppets.

Then, using the Corpse Bone Pulse Chakra Core, they manipulated the bones to deform and fuse with the beast puppet's exoskeleton, adjusting the shape of the limbs and joints to facilitate combat assistance to the human body.

These insect-like summoning beasts have different living habits and fighting styles than humans. One crawls while the other stands upright, which requires subtle modifications and adjustments to be able to cooperate with ninjas in battle.

Then, based on the information about the Ringo clan ninjas in those materials, the armor was designed specifically for them, not only in terms of size but also in terms of fighting style.

These all require careful consideration, which is why Tamura Hao's production is slow. In addition, due to the limitation of chakra, he can only produce one set a day.

Ten sets were produced quickly, and then production was temporarily halted.

The main problem is that no suitable summoning beast has been sent; the Ringo family is currently searching for one.

"Don't wander around during this time. Seven grumpy guys have come to the camp."

Yuri, who had just finished her training and was applying ointment to her palms, saw someone come out of the basement and spoke up to remind him.

"Seven grumpy guys."

Tamura Hao was taken aback for a moment, then made a guess: it must be the first generation of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist.

That was a very complex group in Kirigakure, with members from the Mizukage faction and members from the ninja clan faction.

The seven people finally went to the front line, and they came as a group, which must have been due to some compromise between the two major factions in the village.

Now that we're going to the front lines, that thing should happen.

Tamura Hiroshi hoped to change that ending because, as a transmigrator, he had a cheat-like advantage.

The effect of the cheat is simple: it enhances comprehension. This is the main reason why he was able to train medical ninjutsu and sensory ninjutsu so quickly and well.

However, to activate the cheat ability, one needs the power of destiny, which can only be obtained by altering the original plot.

The last time, guiding the Hidden Mist team to cripple Sasori and seize the Third Kazekage's puppet was a major turning point.

The Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist incident will inevitably bring about a significant change.

He raised his hand to form a hand seal and sensed the surroundings. Soon, he detected seven powerful but unfamiliar chakras in the camp.

After memorizing the chakra of the seven people, Tamura Hao stopped his ninjutsu perception, then placed the ten prepared sealing scrolls on the table and took out one with the words "Little Apple" written on it, handing it to Yuri.

"The first batch of puppet armor is ready. Take it to your aunt later. This one is yours."

"Who gave you permission to call her auntie?"

Yuri instantly became unhappy, glaring at someone with a puffed-up face, but still reached out and took the sealed scroll.

"Aunt Jasmine allowed it."

Tamura Hao spoke with great confidence, determined to live off this woman, and even Jesus couldn't stop him.

Moreover, you can raise them to adulthood, so not only will you not lose money, you'll actually make a huge profit.

"snort!"

With a disgruntled snort, Yuri unrolled the sealed scroll, revealing a small suit of armor, only one meter tall.

The main problem is that Yuri is too short. She is half a head shorter than other children her age and is only one meter tall.

"Where are the spider legs?"

Upon looking at it, Yuri frowned; the spider legs she wanted most were not there.

"See those four pairs of protrusions on your back? I used a sealing technique to seal the spider legs. Once you've trained your chakra threads, you'll be able to unseal and control them one by one. For now, the armor is mainly for your defense."

Tamura Hao explained that the materials used in this suit of armor are much higher quality; the bone material is made from the skeleton of the Kage-level Kaguya, making it even stronger.

Of course, his Spider Armor also had its bone structure replaced with that of the Kage-level Kaguya, and it was the first piece of bone to be replaced.

Of course, I should be the first to use this wonderful thing.

"What should I wear?"

Yuri seemed very excited. She had been looking forward to this kind of puppet armor for a long time, and had been practicing chakra thread techniques for a long time. She was already able to condense and control two chakra threads.

"Take off your shirt, I'll help you put on your nails. Look carefully, from now on you'll have to put them on yourself... What's with that look? Why are you covering your chest? Your pecs aren't even as big as mine, what are you covering up for!"

As they were talking, he suddenly noticed that the little girl was staring at him warily, with her hand raised to her chest, looking at him like he was a pervert, which made Tamura Hao's forehead turn black.

Sure enough, the little girls in the Naruto world are all too precocious.

"You bastard!"

Enraged by the scorn, Yuri immediately lunged forward, baring her teeth and claws, and tried to bite the arm that was blocking her way.

"Hiss, it's loosening!"

He gasped, and Tamura Hiroshi's face turned almost green.

Being bitten by a five-year-old girl is nothing in itself, but in Kirigakure, it's deadly. Many people here have sharp teeth, and this little girl is one of them.

Yu Yuri didn't back down; she was determined to teach this pervert a lesson today.

"You forced me to do this!"

Seeing the determination in that expression, Tamura Hiroshi hardened his heart and slapped him.

"Snapped!"

The crisp sound reverberated, causing Yuri to tremble and instinctively loosen her mouth. Taking advantage of this, Tamura Hiroshi pulled his arm away.

Before he could react, he decisively used the grappling technique he had learned at the ninja academy to pin him to the bed, locking his hands firmly behind his back and gripping his index finger to prevent him from forming hand seals and casting ninjutsu.

"You bastard!"

When Yuri came to her senses, her eyes turned red with anger. She struggled to resist, but her body was restrained and she was unable to fight back.

After struggling for more than ten minutes, he finally stopped, panting heavily, and felt even angrier.

"Are you convinced now?"

Tamura Hao shouted sternly, "Today I'm going to teach this little girl a lesson and let her know who's the boss in the group."

Moreover, he has already demonstrated his value and has initially gained the approval of Aunt Jasmine, who also supports him in nurturing... no, pursuing this little girl.

So it's normal for couples to bicker and tease each other, and I believe this strong-willed girl wouldn't complain about such things.

It's a pity the little girl is too young; the slap just now didn't feel quite right.

"I refuse to accept this!"

Yuri gritted her teeth, wishing she could bite that guy to death on the spot.

"Great, I like your tough-guy attitude!"

A sinister look appeared on his face. Tamura Hao continued to hold the little girl's index finger with one hand, while tickling her body with the other.

"Hahaha...pervert...haha...guy..."

After holding back for a while, Yuri couldn't help but burst out laughing, and the laughter grew louder and louder, until finally her lower abdomen cramped from laughing.

Even so, she stubbornly persisted.

She will not give in!

Tamura Hiroshi was a ruthless man; if the little girl didn't give in, he would keep scratching her until she did.

The two stubborn individuals remained locked in this standoff for three or four hours without stopping, and Yu Yuli was no longer just laughing so hard her stomach was cramping; her entire body was convulsing.

"You two are really making a ruckus."

Just then, a voice rang out, and Tamura Hiroshi turned his head to see that Ringo Mari had appeared in the room at some point.

"aunt!"

Tamura Hiroshi quickly got up and showed his bitten arm to the other person.

After glancing at the teeth marks on her arm, Ringo Molly roughly guessed what had happened.

"Let's treat the wound first!"

After gesturing, Ringo Mari examined the small puppet armor.

The raw material for this suit of armor was specially selected by her for her niece. It was a type of spider with an incredibly high jumping ability, which was very suitable for her niece's combat performance.

On the other side, Tamura Hao left, first breaking open the scabbed wound, rinsing it with distilled water for a while, then disinfecting it, and finally applying wound medicine and wrapping it with medical bandages several times before he was done.

This was to avoid bacterial infection and inflammation, which would be very troublesome. If that girl hadn't been so stubborn, he would have treated the wound long ago.

After her wounds were treated and she returned, Yuri had already sat up, but she was still too weak and could only glare at someone resentfully.

"Little Apple, come and show off your battle armor."

Ringo Mari, who had been observing for a while, grew to like it more and more and gestured for her niece to come over and demonstrate how to dress up.

Although I had communicated with that little guy before, I only knew the general principle of how this thing was dressed and the chakra threads needed to control it, but I had never seen it with my own eyes.

"Get out!"

Having recovered slightly, Yuri continued to glare at the man; she wasn't going to let that pervert get away with it.

"Do you know how to put on armor?"

Tamura Hao rolled his eyes. Was it really necessary to be so wary of a five-year-old girl?

He, Tian, ​​wasn't the kind of guy who liked goldfish; he preferred the kind with turbulent waves, like the future Fifth Mizukage.

"Then you'll be blindfolded."

After glancing at the armor, Yuri finally lowered her requirements, but Tamura Hiroshi still wouldn't have it.

"Then I might as well go out."

"Do you want to take off all your clothes?"

Ringo Mari had a guess that what might have made her niece act this way was probably the dress code, and the two of them were probably fighting because of that.

"It's best to be completely naked, especially around the spine, where you need to fit as snugly as possible. It'll be easier to control the chakra threads that extend from there."

Tamura Hao explained, his eyes fixed on the little girl. He was determined to teach this girl a lesson today.

"What's there to be ashamed of for a five-year-old? Didn't you used to make a lot of noise when you took a bath with your aunt?"

Ringo Jasmine chuckled and tapped her daughter's forehead. This little girl was too sensitive and took things too seriously.

You're just a five-year-old girl, you haven't grown up at all, you're flat-chested, what's there to be shy about?

"That pervert is different!"

Yuri was still glaring angrily at someone; that person was a despicable pervert.
