Both time-traveled characters ended up as villainous henchmen.

With the direction determined, things became much clearer. Combined with the directional influence exerted by the meridian system, Izumi Nen was confident that he could completely control the Bloodlust Yin Escape this time and eliminate all the negative effects.

After listing all the directions to explore, Izumi Nen eliminated a few less-than-ideal ideas and confirmed the final plan.

Without much hesitation, he quickly adjusted his breathing to restore himself to peak condition and then entered the underground training room to begin his attempt to combine Water Release and Bloodlust Yin Release.

One night passed.

The next morning, Izumi Nen walked out of the underground training room looking exhausted.

His complexion wasn't very good, because after a night of experimentation, his combination of Bloodlust Yin Release and Water Release could be described as both a success and a failure.

With his previous experience in synthesizing Yin Lightning Release, he quickly found a way to combine Yin Blood Release and Water Release, and successfully fused the two together to develop a new Yin Release bloodline limit, Dark Blood.

But when he tried to incorporate Dark Blood Yin Release into his current chakra meridian system, an unexpected incident occurred.

The Yuan Shui Water Escape technique that originally existed within his body suddenly produced a spontaneous rejection reaction with the Dark Blood Yin Escape technique.

Before he could react, most of the newly synthesized Dark Blood Yin Escape technique within his body was dissolved under the influence of the Yang Escape technique within the Yuan Shui Water Escape technique.

He spent the rest of the night trying to find a suitable solution, but to no avail.

Even if he exhausts all the Yuan Shui Water Release chakra in his body, the parts of his body affected by Yuan Shui Water Release will still neutralize the Dark Blood Yin Release.

This caused him great distress.

He now only has two paths: either rebuild a completely new chakra meridian system for Dark Blood Yin Release that does not come into contact with Yuan Shui Water Release.

Alternatively, we could try to find a way to resolve the issue of mutual annihilation between Dark Blood Yin Escape and Yuan Water Water Escape.

After racking his brains all night without finding a clue, Izumi Nen was exhausted. Thinking about his appointment with Namikaze Minato that afternoon, he stopped worrying about the problem, went back to his room and fell asleep, putting it out of his mind for the time being.

In the afternoon, at the entrance of Ichiraku Ramen.

Izumi Nen spotted a blond figure wearing a green vest from afar.

Minato Namikaze quickly sensed Izumi Nen's approach.

"Izumi-kun, I've seen your ideas in the scroll, and they're truly astonishing."

Minato Namikaze solemnly handed the scroll containing the secret technique back to Izumi Nen, his face full of admiration.

"Of course, there are quite a few problems. Some aspects are indeed handled rather immaturely. The effects of the secret technique are quite good for ordinary genin, but at the chunin level, its effectiveness is somewhat weak..."

Okay, I won't go into too much detail. I've also written the suggested revisions on the scroll, so you can go back and study them at your leisure.

As it happens, I have some knowledge of the ninja meridian system and sealing techniques, including some sealing techniques as well. Perhaps it's different from what Izumi-kun learned from Orochimaru, but it can still serve as a reference.

Minato Namikaze spoke calmly, gently patting Izumi Nen's shoulder, just like a friendly older brother next door.

Izumi Nenya took the other scroll handed to him by Namikaze Minato, his eyes sparkling with surprise.

"Thank you, Jonin Minato. I will cherish this advice."

After saying that, he bowed solemnly to Minato Namikaze.

"Haha, no need to be so formal." Minato Namikaze helped Izumi Nen up, then said, "Let's go to Ichiraku Ramen, it's on me this time."

"it is good."

After finishing their ramen, the two said goodbye and went their separate ways.

As Izumi watched Minato Namikaze's departing figure, clutching the scroll containing knowledge of sealing techniques given to him, he firmly resolved in his heart:

"Minato, don't worry. Once the Third Shinobi World War begins, I will use the Eight Trigrams Sealing Technique to seal and suppress Obito until Kakashi and Rin get married, then I will release him to be his bridesmaid."

……

After saying goodbye to Minato Namikaze, Izumi Nen walked towards the laboratory with a normal expression.

Upon arriving at the location where they had encountered the Root ninja the day before, the familiar chakra fluctuations reappeared.

Izumi Nen's lips curled into a smile; it seemed Danzo's sincerity had been demonstrated.

However, he did not lower his guard; instead, he secretly began to refine his chakra.

A moment later, a familiar figure wearing an animal mask appeared instantly in the open space in front of Izumi Nen.

Only one Root ninja came this time, the same one who led the group yesterday.

Without wasting any words, the Root ninja took out three scrolls and presented them to Izumi Nen with great sincerity.

Izumi Nen tilted his head slightly, signaling with his eyes for the other person to continue.

Seeing this, the Root ninja showed no emotional fluctuation, but instead picked up the leftmost scroll and said in a deep voice:

"This scroll contains some Water Release ninjutsu collected by Root, while the other contains Lightning Release ninjutsu."

After saying that, he pointed to the scroll in the middle with his finger.

"Finally," the Root ninja put down two ninjutsu scrolls, picked up the one on the far right that was clearly different from the other two, and said, "This scroll contains the land deed for the Izumi family's ancestral home, as well as the profit receipts for the businesses they operate. You can take over directly without having to put in any effort to manage it; Root will handle that."

Upon hearing this, Izumi Nen raised an eyebrow, took the scroll containing the land deed of the Izumi family's ancestral home, and directly opened it to summon the land deed through spiritual energy.

It really is the ancestral home of the Izumi family.

Looking at the contents of the contract, Izumi Nen recalled childhood memories that were almost obscured by dust.

"Please thank Lord Danzo for me. I am very satisfied with this compensation."

To be honest, Izumi Nian didn't have much affection for the Izumi family's ancestral home or his adoptive father, whom he rarely saw.

However, since Danzo wants to use emotional appeals to get closer to him, he might as well go along with it.

Of course, he wouldn't refuse the money he got for free.

The Root ninja nodded upon hearing this, and then continued:

"Lord Danzo values ​​your talent highly. If you encounter any problems in your training in the future, you can let me know, and Root will provide assistance as much as possible."

finally come.

Izumi thought to himself, and a hint of surprise and delight appeared on his face.

"That's perfect. I need some knowledge about sealing techniques recently. Can Root provide some high-level sealing ninjutsu materials?"

Ideally, it should be something like the Four Symbols Seal.

The Root ninja seemed stunned for a moment upon hearing this, but he quickly replied according to Danzo's previous orders: "Sealing technique? Understood."

"After I return, I will report to Lord Danzo at the next meeting. A detailed reply will be given by this time tomorrow."

After saying this, Asahi Izumi nodded slightly in acknowledgment and then vanished in an instant.

After its aura had completely disappeared, Izumi Nen stepped forward and put away the remaining two scrolls.

The harvest this time was pretty good.

As for the Four Symbols Seal, he had always been prepared to try his luck, hoping it would work out, but even if it didn't, it would give him an opportunity to negotiate with Danzo.

After the destruction of the Land of Whirlpools, Root should have taken the opportunity to collect a lot of sealing techniques from the Uzumaki clan. It would be great if they could obtain them directly from Root, saving them a lot of trouble.

Of course, he could not let his guard down around the roots.
