Chapter 106 Konoha's Six Styles, Curse Antidote Unlocked (First and Second Updates)

The next day.

After having breakfast, Natsuki went to the laboratory where Tsunade was.

But unlike what others expected, she did not break Chiyo's poison.

She was using Chiyo's poison to make an antidote, which was the antidote for the curse given to her by Natsuki.

With so much time and Xia Mu's hints, the antidote for the curse has identified six deadly poisons.

If Chiyo's newly created poison is the seventh type, then she can successfully create the antidote to the curse.

Theoretically, the antidote for the curse can cure not only Hanzo's poison but also Chiyo's.

"You brought back a lot of poison."

Tsunade noticed his arrival and said, "But there's only one poison I don't recognize; it's most likely a new poison made by Chiyo."

"Is this Chiyo's newly created poison?"

Xia Mu looked at the glassware on the lab table and asked.

"Um.

""

Tsunade nodded and said, "I'm trying to add six other potent poisons."

Xia Mu reached out and placed her hand on the vessel.

He quickly received a system notification, which was one of the poisons needed for the antidote to the curse.

Xia Mu didn't touch all the poisons last night because of the time constraints and the fact that they were mixed together.

He pretended to look at it twice and said, "I have a feeling we're going to have good luck."

"Every time you say that, we can identify the poison needed for the antidote to the curse."

Tsunade laughed and said.

"Let's see if it comes true this time."

Xia Mu paused for a moment, then asked, "How much longer?"

"One hour."

Tsunade glanced at him and said, "If the antidote really works, you will become the greatest hero of Konoha."

"Does that mean Konoha has to give me whatever I want?"

Xia Mu blinked and asked.

"What you said is not wrong."

Tsunade nodded slightly and said, "Konoha Village can grant you any reasonable request."

Does Konoha Village possess water-style chakra crystals?

Xia Mu asked the question as he went along with it.

"What do you need the Water Release chakra crystals for?"

Tsunade asked, puzzled.

"I want to make a ninja tool that can enhance the power of Water Release techniques."

Xia Mu explained, "Although the Thunder God Sword also contains chakra crystals, it uses lightning release, which doesn't match my preferred water release style."

"I see."

Tsunade smiled and said, "Then you are indeed very lucky. Konoha Village has a Water Release chakra crystal."

Xia Mu's eyes lit up.

"Water Release Chakra Crystals are so precious that no ninja has ever earned enough merit to exchange for them."

Tsunade changed the subject, saying, "If the antidote can cure Chiyo and Hanzo's poison, then your contribution will be sufficient."

Of course, she didn't mention one thing: this water-style chakra crystal was left behind by Tobirama Senju.

Only a few people know of its existence.

"I see."

Xia Mu's gaze fell on the antidote for the curse.

To be honest, he wasn't entirely confident that it could cure Chiyo and Hanzo's poison.

But I can only say that the hope is very high.

After all, it can even cure magical poisons and curses that sound very unscientific.

Time passed slowly.

"It's a success!"

Tsunade picked up the antidote with antidote in high spirits.

But the successful development of the antidote to the curse was only the beginning.

"Xia Mu, bring over the little white rabbits used for the experiments over there."

"Tsunade gave the order."

Xia Mu nodded.

Soon the little white rabbit was placed on the experimental table.

Tsunade fed it Chiyo's poison.

It took a sip and then collapsed.

Tsunade then fed it the antidote for the curse.

After the little rabbit drank it, an amazing change immediately occurred in its body.

Not long after, it stood up again and took a couple of steps, showing no signs of poisoning whatsoever.

"Natsuki!"

Tsunade hugged Natsuki happily and said, "We're going to win this war!"

Before Xia Mu could react, her face was pressed against her clothes, making it difficult for her to breathe.

But—it is indeed soft.

"Chiyo would never have imagined that we would break her poison in less than half a day."

Tsunade released Natsuki and said thoughtfully, "With the antidote for the curse, our chances of successfully turning the tables on him will greatly increase."

Xia Mu breathed in the fresh air.

He looked up at Tsunade.

Tsunade was already deep in thought.

Coupled with her lingering excitement, her fair skin rose and fell slightly with her breath.

"The best approach is for us to maintain our defenses as usual."

Tsunade snapped out of her reverie and said, "But we don't need to be too careful, lest the Sand Village ninjas successfully administer the poison."

Yesterday, Nara Shikasuke raised a question.

To turn the tables, we need to find out where Sunagakure poisoned the village and who poisoned it.

However, he raised this question on the premise that Chiyo's poison had not been cured.

They need to pretend to be poisoned without actually being poisoned.

However, we don't need to consider this issue today.

Because of the antidote for the curse, they can actually be poisoned.

In this way, the ninjas of Sunagakure will not suspect that they are playing along with a scheme.

This is why Tsunade said that their chances of success in turning the tables on their opponent would increase significantly.

"Natsuki, go and call Shiro here."

Tsunade patted his head and said.

"Um."

Xia Mu turned and left.

A moment later, he and Nara Shikasuke returned to the laboratory.

"Shikasuke, Natsuki and I have already broken Chiyo's poison."

Tsunade got straight to the point.

"So fast?"

Nara Shikasuke was surprised, but then his expression turned to delight.

He is very intelligent, and in an instant he had the same idea as Tsunade. Their plan to turn the tables on each other will most likely succeed.

If successful, it could deal a heavy blow to Sunagakure and perhaps even end the war.

The two quickly started discussing it.

Chiyo's best places to poison food were water sources and food.

Although it rains every day in the Land of Rain, Konoha Village cannot drink rainwater directly.

Their water source is underground.

With Earth Release ninjas around, fetching water from underground is not a difficult task.

From another perspective, earth-style ninjas can also burrow underground to poison water.

Sunagakure has the most Earth Release ninjas besides Iwagakure.

After all, the environment in the Land of Wind is very harsh.

The most numerous ninjas in Sunagakure are Wind Release ninjas, followed by Earth Release ninjas.

Water Release ninjas are almost non-existent.

Using Water Release in the desert environment of the Land of Wind consumes significantly more chakra.

Both Tsunade and Shikasuke Nara believed that the Sand Village was most likely poisoned in the water source.

But other areas also need protection.

What if Sunagakure does the opposite?

After the discussion was completed, Tsunade convened a Jonin meeting in the main tent and began assigning tasks.

Xia Mu's squad also received a mission.

Go and protect food and medicine.

In addition, Natsuki also has a private secret mission from Tsunade.

That is to produce as many antidotes as possible.

To prevent the ninjas of Sunagakure from knowing about the antidote, Tsunade only allowed him to make it.

In other words, only the two of them knew about the existence of the antidote to the curse.

Behind the main camp of Konoha Village.

Natsuki, Maruhoshi Kosuke, Yakushi Nonou, and Nawaki arrived at their mission objective.

This is a huge tent, piled high with essential supplies, namely food and medicine.

However, a small laboratory was set up inside the tent for Xia Mu to make the antidote to the curse.

Of course, such an important place is not just for a ninja squad.

Besides the secret ANBU squad, there are three other ninja squads.

"Hizashi-senpai, we'll leave the sensing and reconnaissance to your team. Please let us know immediately if anything unusual happens."

Natsuki walked up to Hyuga Hizashi and spoke.

"nature."

Hyuga Hizashi said with a smile, "Please rest assured and leave it to us."

This time, the five ninja squads were led by Natsuki.

In the past, Hyuga Hizashi and the others would have doubted whether he had the ability to be in charge, but now he has proven himself.

In terms of age, he is the youngest.

But in terms of strength, he was the strongest among the five ninja squads present.

Xia Mu nodded and walked into the tent with Sheng Shu and the others.

Their task was to guard the medicine and food in the tent.

The other four ninja squads provided protection outside the tent.

Tsunade issued this order so that Natsuki could make it easier to prepare the antidote for the curse.

[Congratulations, host, for unlocking Gordon's template ability four: Curse Antidote.]

After Xia Mu made the first antidote for the curse, he also unlocked the corresponding ability.

He immediately went from beginner to expert, greatly increasing his speed in making antidotes to curses.

Gordon's template is only missing the ability to convert poison into medicine.

"How boring."

Rope Tree sighed and said.

He did nothing all day but patrolled around the tent.

"As a ninja, you have to be able to endure loneliness."

Maruhoshi Kosuke reminded him.

"You can help me make the antidote."

Xia Mu said with a smile.

"I'd rather fight Chiyo to the death than create an antidote."

Rope Tree's lips twitched as he spoke.

"It's not a good place to practice Water Release techniques, but it's still possible to do so."

Suddenly, Xia Mu remembered something and asked, "I created a martial art, do you want to learn it?"

"study!"

Rope Tree immediately became excited.

"Nonou, you teach them."

Seeing this, Xia Mu said.

Should I learn it too?

Maruhoshi Kosuke asked, somewhat surprised.

"This physical technique is called Shave, and it's an advanced form of instantaneous movement. There's no harm in learning it."

Xia Mu paused for a moment, then said, "I plan to create six taijutsu techniques, which I will call the Six Styles of Konoha."

The Six Powers of the Navy cannot be used in the ninja world; it would sound very confusing.

He originally wanted to name it Natsuki Rokushiki, but that didn't seem to reflect a high level of awareness of the Will of Fire.

He ultimately named it Konoha Rokushiki, reflecting that he was an excellent successor to the Will of Fire.

Moreover, the Six Styles of Konoha sound very related to the Konoha Whirlwind series of taijutsu.

He could also say that the inspiration for Konoha's Six Styles came from Might Guy.

"That's truly remarkable."

Maruhoshi Kosuke immediately exclaimed, "You might become a master of taijutsu just like your teacher."

Tobirama Senju is widely recognized as a master of Water Release techniques.

He created a large number of water-style ninjutsu, which even influenced Kirigakure (Hidden Mist Village).

Maruhoshi Kosuke meant that Natsuki could become a master of physical techniques.

The reason is that there are too few taijutsu techniques in the ninja world at present.

The only martial art that can be considered advanced is the Eight Gates Formation.

Yakushi Nonou has almost mastered the shaving technique, so teaching Nawaki and Maruhoshi Kosuke is no problem at all.

Xia Mu continued to make the antidote for the curse.

To speed things up, he also created three shadow clones to help with the production.

The next day arrived.

The main tent at the Sunagakure village headquarters.

"Chiyo-sama."

An ANBU ninja reported the results of yesterday's investigation.

"We can send an Earth Release ninja to poison them."

Luo Sha immediately said.

"If we can think of it, Konoha Village can definitely think of it too."

Yekura cautioned, "The defenses at the water source are definitely the tightest."

"The locations of food and medicine are too deep, making it extremely difficult to poison them."

Luo Sha frowned as he spoke.

Many ninjas are skilled at infiltration.

But infiltrating Konoha's headquarters is a different matter.

This means that you need to break the barrier, destroy the outpost, and possess extremely strong stealth ninjutsu.

Even a genius like Natsuki would be discovered if he infiltrated the Sunagakure headquarters.

Where in Sunagakure could they find a genius comparable to Natsuki?

Although Xia Mu was discovered, he completed his mission.

Poisoning is different; if it's discovered, it means the mission has failed.

Konoha Village will certainly not be foolish enough to eat potentially poisonous water and food again.

"Let's follow Konoha Village's example and use a feint attack."

Chiyo suddenly had an idea and spoke up.

Luo Sha, Ye Cang, and the others subconsciously looked at her.

"They openly poisoned food and medicine, but secretly poisoned water sources."

Chiyo explained, "If we're discovered, we should make a big commotion in the open, and it would be best if we could destroy the food and medicine."

"Lady Chiyo is truly insightful!"

Luo Sha immediately said.

"Luo Sha, you're in charge of this matter."

Chiyo gave the instructions.

"Yes, Chiyo-sama!"

Luo Sha assured him, "I will definitely complete the mission!"

Ye Cang hesitated, then fell silent.

She knew that Chiyo favored Rasa as the next Kazekage.

In fact, not only her, but more than half of the Sunagakure ninjas favored Rasa.

Because he mastered the bloodline limit Magnet Release.

Although Yekura's Scorch Release is no worse than Magnet Release, Magnet Release represents orthodoxy in Sunagakure.

After all, the Third Kazekage also mastered Magnet Release.

Furthermore, Rasa's Magnet Release technique was learned from the Third Kazekage.

Sunagakure has two orthodox traditions: Magnet Release and Puppet Technique.

The Puppet Technique was created by the Second Kazekage, Shamon, and its most outstanding successor was Chiyo.

Theoretically speaking, the most likely candidate to become the Fourth Kazekage is Rasa and Chiyo's son, Reki.

They all belong to the Kazekage lineage of ninjas.

As a ninja who is not from the Kazekage lineage, Yekura needs either overwhelming strength or overwhelming merit to become the Fourth Kazekage.

She can hardly achieve overwhelming strength; she can only try to gain credit.

But just now, Chiyo gave a great credit to Rasa.

If he can successfully poison the village, then Sunagakure will most likely be able to defeat Konoha and end the war.

The merits of Luo Sha need no further explanation.

Ye Cang couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

From the perspective of the Sand Village ninjas, she hoped that Rasa would succeed.

But from a personal perspective, she hoped he would fail.
