Naruto: Fusion of Multiverse Character Templates

Chapter 148 The Might of the Thunder Giant, White Template (Third and Fourth Updates)

Xia Mu's gaze fell on the three snow ninjas standing at the front, two men and one woman.

Although they were younger than they were in the original work, he still recognized them.

The main reason is that their hair color is very unique.

Blue hair, purple hair, and pink hair.

They are the Snow Ninja Trio: Wolf Fang Avalanche, Winter Bear Freezing Rain, and Crane Wing Blizzard.

The three of them were also sizing up Xia Mu and the others.

They should have acted immediately, but they stopped when they saw Yahiko and the other two.

A teenager bringing three children to someone's door—it seems suspicious no matter how you look at it.

"We come from an organization called Akatsuki."

With a smile, Xia Mu said, "I would like to invite you to join the Akatsuki organization."

"What Akatsuki? Never even heard of it!"

Winter Bear Frozen Rain said bluntly, "They actually want us to join? That's laughable!"

"You have to give us an explanation!"

Wolf Fang Avalanche narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice.

Upon learning that Natsuki came from the unknown Akatsuki organization, he immediately felt more confident.

An organization without a reputation, even if it has some strength, doesn't have much.

As for Xia Mu and the others daring to hurt people, he felt they were ignorant and arrogant.

"Wind, flowers, raging waves, and storms are not good to follow."

Xia Mu said calmly.

"Are you from the daimyo's side?"

Wolf Fang Avalanche was slightly taken aback and couldn't help but ask.

"I guess so."

Xia Mu nodded and said.

"You brat, go back and tell the lord that we will never betray Lord Raging Waves!"

Crane Wing Snow said mockingly.

"It seems the only way to convince you is through strength."

Seeing that he had achieved his goal, Xia Mu stopped wasting his breath.

He put on this play for Yahiko and the other two.

After all, they are still young and need a reason to take action.

But darkness in the ninja world is inevitable.

They'll naturally come into contact with it when they grow up, and we'll teach them then.

"court death!"

Upon hearing this, Winter Bear Frozen Rain immediately said, "Kill them!"

The Snow Ninjas quickly formed hand seals.

The ground suddenly trembled, and the ice and snow, drawn by their chakra, surged towards Natsuki and the others.

Before they even got close, Wolf Fang Avalanche clapped his hands together.

Amidst the wind and snow, a gigantic whale soared into the sky.

This is the Ice Release: One-Horned White Whale that he used to deal with Kakashi Hatake in the original work.

The three of them paled upon seeing the overwhelming snowstorm, and felt a sense of tension.

With their strength, they definitely can't stop them.

Just then, lightning flashed and thunder roared.

They instinctively looked up and saw that dense thunderclouds had gathered in the sky at some unknown time.

"Be careful!"

Wolf Fang Avalanche shouted loudly involuntarily.

Thunderclouds are impossible in the Land of Snow, where it snows all year round.

The only explanation is that this was caused by lightning ninjutsu.

He had never seen such a powerful lightning ninjutsu before, and for a moment, he had a bad feeling.

The next second, my premonition came true.

The sky suddenly brightened, and the dazzling lightning was like a flashbang, making it impossible for them to open their eyes.

boom!

A violent bolt of lightning struck down from the sky.

The whale was the first to be affected.

It was struck by countless bolts of lightning and shattered instantly.

Following closely behind were the various ninjutsu used by the Snow Ninja.

The seemingly mighty snowstorm was also shattered, turning into individual ice shards that flew in all directions.

However, the lightning was not completely neutralized; the remaining lightning streaked across arcs and hurtled towards the Snow Ninja.

"defense!"

Wolf Fang Avalanche's expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly shouted.

The previously arrogant Winter Bear Frozen Rain and Crane Wing Snowflakes dared not say much at this moment and formed hand seals.

Ice Release: Ice Pillar!

Winter Bear slapped his hands on the ground in the freezing rain.

The ground trembled, and the ice and snow gathered, immediately forming three huge ice pillars.

Ice Release: Swallow Snowfall!

Crane Wing Snowflakes flicked his hands.

Large amounts of ice and snow transformed into darts, hurtling towards the lightning.

Wolf Fang Avalanche then manipulated the remaining ice and snow to follow closely behind, rushing forward like ocean waves.

boom!

Another explosion was heard.

With the combined efforts of the three, the lightning finally dissipated.

They just didn't feel happy at all.

They instinctively looked at Xia Mu, their faces filled with shock and confusion.

Where did this lightning-style expert come from?

"That's amazing!"

Yahiko couldn't help but gasp in surprise.

Konan and Nagato were also deeply shocked.

Although they knew Xia Mu was very powerful, they didn't know just how powerful he was.

After all, none of them had ever seen Natsuki fight other ninjas.

Seeing this incredibly powerful lightning technique, I immediately grasped its meaning.

Moreover, in their impression, Xia Mu was skilled in swordsmanship, physical combat, and water-based techniques.

This was the first time they had seen him use Lightning Release.

But it must be said that it opened their eyes.

It took so many Snow Ninjas working together to hold them off.

Xia Mu smiled.

In terms of power, the real lightning strike from this Misaka Mikoto template is indeed a genuine S-rank lightning release.

"Who—who are you?"

Wolf Fang Avalanche asked with a solemn expression.

Having witnessed such terrifying lightning release, even if the Akatsuki organization was not famous, he dared not underestimate Natsuki.

"I have already stated that I am from the Akatsuki organization."

Xia Mu chuckled and asked, "So? Have you changed your minds?"

"While your lightning techniques are impressive, they're not enough to make us kneel and worship you!"

Crane Wing Snow said sternly, "Don't underestimate us!"

Wolf Fang Avalanche simply watched Xia Mu in silence.

As Tsurugi Fubuki said, a single lightning ninjutsu wouldn't be enough to make them switch sides.

More importantly, given Xia Mu's age, is he still able to unleash a second lightning release like this?

Wolf Fang Avalanche doesn't think he can use it multiple times.

He himself didn't show his true strength.

In addition, given their superior numbers, they are not necessarily going to lose.

Wolf Fang Avalanche thought of this and waved his hand.

The snow ninjas immediately split up, forming a semi-encirclement around Natsuki and the others.

Yahiko and the other two immediately became serious and prepared for battle.

Ice Release: Dragon-Slaying Tiger!

Wolf Fang Avalanche forms hand seals.

Everyone felt the ground tremble, and snowstorms surged into the sky, condensing into a giant ice dragon in mid-air.

Its power is not as great as Xia Mu's lightning release, but it is not bad either.

Upon seeing this, He Yi Chuixue and the others were all invigorated.

Their leader finally got serious.

The ice dragon flashed and crashed into Xia Mu at a speed invisible to the naked eye.

Blood Demon Art: Blood Burst!

Xia Mu opened her arms.

A spurt of blood flew out and exploded upon contact with the ice dragon.

Blood splattered in all directions like a fountain.

In the blink of an eye, the ice dragon's body was covered with dense blood flowers, just like plum blossoms.

But the next second, scorching flames shot into the air.

The ice dragon melted into water in mid-air, its enormous size disappearing completely in less than a second.

The snow ninjas were momentarily stunned.

Wolf Fang Avalanche's face darkened, wondering what secret technique Xia Mu had used.

Xiao Nan's expression was the opposite of theirs.

She hadn't expected that the Blood Demon Art: Blood Explosion would be so powerful in Xia Mu's hands.

Clearly, one day she will be able to achieve that power as well.

As Yahiko looked at the ice dragon that had turned into water, a strange feeling flickered in his heart.

But he found it difficult to describe what that feeling was like.

"All of you, get out of my way!"

Wolf Fang Avalanche said coldly.

He then immediately formed a mudra with both hands.

Ice Release: Wolf Fang Avalanche!

Wolf Fang Avalanche took a deep breath, and his chakra rapidly gathered within him.

He slapped his hands on the ground.

A torrent of chakra surged forth.

A crack suddenly appeared in the ground, and the crack spread out to the small snow-capped mountain in the distance.

boom!

The snow-capped mountain collapsed, and countless snowflakes poured down.

An avalanche was thus formed.

Then, as the snowflakes ran downhill, they all turned into ice wolves.

When Yahiko saw this horrifying scene, his eyes widened in disbelief.

Nagato and Konan instinctively took a half step back.

The snow ninjas, on the other hand, became excited.

"Your ice-style technique does have its merits, although it can only be used in the Land of Snow."

Xia Mu commented.

The powerful force is not the Wolf Fang Avalanche, nor the Ice Release, but the avalanche caused by the collapse of the snow mountain.

Any ninja with a lot of chakra could do the same, even if they don't know Ice Release.

Of course, knowing Ice Release, or more accurately, the Snow Control Technique, can save a lot of chakra.

Natsuki could have stopped the Wolf Fang Avalanche before Ice Release: Wolf Fang Avalanche took effect.

But in the end he didn't.

Because if he can block Ice Release: Wolf Fang Avalanche, he will most likely be able to subdue the Snow Ninja Clan.

Thunder giant!

Without further hesitation, Xia Mu unleashed his chakra like a surging wave.

In an instant, the ground began to shake violently.

"What's going on?"

Wolf Fang Avalanche and the others couldn't help but look around.

boom!

The ground cracked open, revealing a huge humanoid head.

The soil and snow churned, and under the pull of chakra, it formed its body along with dense iron sand.

A flash of lightning appeared, and a giant over thirty meters tall emerged.

Its enormous size blotted out the sky, dimming the vision of the Snow Ninja.

But now was not the time to delve into the issue of light; they stared incredulously at the seemingly endless thunder giant.

Just how strong is Natsuki-sensei?

Yahiko subconsciously swallowed.

Neither Nagato nor Konan replied to him; they were both too shocked to say anything.

The Thunder Giant began to move.

The overwhelming avalanches seemed less terrifying in its presence.

After all, this snow-capped mountain isn't even as tall as it.

It raised its hands.

The dust and iron filings inside his body rubbed against each other, causing a large amount of lightning to erupt out.

Wherever it passed, the ice wolves formed from snow were quickly shattered.

The giant thunder stepped forward and threw out both fists.

The snow-capped mountain was struck by the massive fists and instantly split in two.

The avalanche caused by the Wolf Fang avalanche stopped there.

The Snow Ninja fell into a deathly silence.

They have been completely defeated by Xia Mu.

Although the two sides fighting were Xia Mu and Langya Xue Beng.

Wolf Fang Avalanche, Winter Bear Freezing Rain, and Crane Wing Snowstorm all looked at Natsuki with expressions of fear that were inevitable.

Two terrifying lightning-style ninjutsu techniques in quick succession left them speechless.

Their ice-style techniques rely on the power of heaven and earth to achieve such power, but Xia Mu's lightning-style techniques have no external force.

What this signifies is self-evident.

"Natsuki-sensei is definitely one of the strongest ninjas in the entire ninja world!"

Yahiko said excitedly.

"Um."

Xiao Nan nodded and said.

"If Lightning Release is already this powerful, I wonder how advanced Teacher Xia Mu's swordsmanship, taijutsu, and water release techniques are."

A hint of admiration appeared in Nagato's eyes.

"yes."

Yahiko felt incredibly lucky and longed for the opportunity to learn.

Just then, the Thunder Giant moved again.

It turned back, walked towards Xia Mu, and finally stopped behind him.

"What is the choice your Snow Ninja clan has made now?"

Xia Mu looked at Langya Xuebeng and the others, and asked with a smile.

Although he had a smile on his face, the Snow Ninjas felt their legs go weak when faced with the towering Thunder Giant behind him.

"We're willing to join the Akatsuki!"

Wolf Fang Avalanche said without hesitation.

At this point, not joining means certain death.

Besides, can Feng Hua Nu Tao's strength reach the level of Xia Mu?

Obviously it is impossible.

Feng Hua Nu Tao's strength is at most about the same as his, but compared to Xia Mu, it's worlds apart.

His only advantage was that he was the younger brother of Kazahana Hayate, the daimyo of the Land of Snow, and held a high position of power.

But his power will not last much longer.

Because Natsuki said they were from the daimyo of the Land of Snow, Kazahana Hayate.

"very good."

Xia Mu nodded in satisfaction.

But then he started to think again.

His purpose for this trip was to visit the Land of Snow and the Land of Wind, Flowers, and Light Snow.

However, since Kazama Koyuki is very young now, even if she were transformed into a demon, it would be difficult to subdue this group of snow ninjas.

The best approach is to select one of the Snow Ninja for conversion.

In this way, he can be temporarily put in charge of the Snow Country and the Dawn Company branch.

Of course, he didn't intend for it to become one of the Twelve Demon Moons, so he wouldn't give it much blood; he just needed to control it.

After all, Wolf Fang Avalanche and others were too poor in terms of talent. They could be considered Jonin in the Land of Snow, but they were not so good outside of the Land of Snow.

Xia Mu stepped forward and extended his hand.

Wolf Fang Avalanche and the others instinctively took a step back.

"If you want to live, stand still."

After Xia Mu finished speaking, a drop of blood flew towards the Wolf Fang Avalanche.

Wolf Fang Avalanche sensed something was wrong, but dared not disobey, and could only watch helplessly as the drop of blood disappeared into his brow.

The next second, he felt his physical strength increase, but not by much.

Immediately afterwards, a piece of information entered his mind.

When he finished receiving it, he was struck dumb.

He already knew the purpose of Xia Mu's drop of blood, and his expression subconsciously turned very ugly.

But—it was too late. The transformation was complete, and he became a puppet controlled by Xia Mu, with the power of life and death in Xia Mu's hands.

The only way to escape is death.

But he dared not, nor did he want to, die.

He lowered his head and accepted his fate.

Xia Mu snapped his fingers.

The Thunder Giant collapsed with a crash and quickly disappeared.

"Let's go inside and talk."

Xia Mu withdrew his hand and said.

"plz follow me."

Wolf Fang Avalanche raised his hand and spoke respectfully.

Winter Bear Frozen Rain, Crane Wing Snow, and the others didn't notice anything wrong with him.

After all, it's normal for a strong person like Xia Mu to take such an attitude.

But in reality, Wolf Fang Avalanche is so humble mainly because his life and death are no longer under his control.

Yahiko and the other two exchanged glances, suppressed their excitement, and followed Natsuki into the Snow Ninja Clan's encampment.

"What did Feng Hua Nu Tao instruct you to do?"

Xia Mu asked casually.

"Let us research and manufacture chakra armor."

Wolf Fang Avalanche immediately said, "This is a type of armor that can amplify chakra."

"How's your progress?"

Xia Mu asked again.

In the original work, characters like Fuuka Nyutō and Ryōga Awake wore this chakra armor when they appeared.

Judging from its performance, it can only be described as average.

"The progress is about one-tenth."

Wolf Fang Avalanche thought for a moment and said, "I estimate it will take a few more years."

Xia Mu seemed to be deep in thought.

When Fuuka Nyutō usurped the throne, Kakashi Hatake had already joined the Anbu.

Kakashi Hatake joined the Anbu after the Third Shinobi World War.

He was twelve years old then, but now he is only two or three years old.

It seems we can't count on the chakra armor.

"Can you gather evidence of Feng Hua Nu Tao's usurpation?"

Xia Mu pondered for a moment and then asked.

"It's difficult."

Wolf Fang Avalanche shook his head and said, "He only mentioned it to us verbally."

Xia Mu nodded slightly.

There is only one way left now.

That's an illusion.

He used illusion magic to manipulate the wind, flowers, and raging waves to forcibly usurp the throne.

Of course, gaining the trust of the Daimyo of the Land of Wind, Hayayuki Kazahana, will require some maneuvering.

Xia Mu looked at the Wolf Fang Avalanche.

Just as he was about to speak, a line of text appeared before his eyes.

[Yahiko has unlocked Blood Demon Art: Ice Crystal.]

Xia Mu raised an eyebrow, sensing a pleasant surprise.

"I get it!"

Yahiko suddenly shouted excitedly.

He had a vague understanding of Wolf Fang Avalanche's ice-style ninjutsu when he watched it.

He only realized it just now.

Everyone in the hall instinctively looked at him.

"I----"

Yahiko was about to speak, but then he noticed that there were many snow ninjas around, so he scratched his head and shut his mouth.

[You have awakened the white template.]

Xia Mu noticed another change in the text before his eyes.

Is it white?

He thought that defeating Wolf Fang Avalanche and others wouldn't trigger a new character template, but he didn't expect it to, and it was white.

Thinking about it carefully, it makes sense.

Wolf Fang Avalanche and others were too weak; their ability to reach Jonin level was entirely due to environmental factors.

Once you leave the Land of Snow, the best you can achieve is a Special Jonin.

Haku's strength is roughly equivalent to that of a Special Jonin.

Name: Bai.

[Period: Final.]

[World: Naruto]

[Rank: B]

[Ability 1: One-handed hand seals, unlocked.]

[Effect: Allows for one-handed hand seal formation.]

[Ability 2: Water Release: Thousand Kill Water Flight, not yet unlocked.]

[Effect: Transforms water into a large quantity of senpaku (Japanese sticks), resulting in a wide-range, high-speed attack.]

[Unlock condition: Defeat three Water Release Special Jonin.]

[Ability 3: Ice Release: Ice Rock Hall - Not yet unlocked.]

[Effect: Creates a wall of ice around the user to block enemy attacks.]

[Unlock condition: Establish Snow Village.]

[Ability 4: Ice Release: Demonic Mirror Ice Crystal, not yet unlocked.]

[Effect: Creates multiple ice mirrors around the enemy, allowing the user to move at high speed between them.]

[Unlock condition: Defeat an Ice Release ninja.]

For Xia Mu, the most valuable thing about the white template is the one-handed hand seals and Ice Release.

One-handed hand seals are very useful in battle.

Although Haku only used two Ice Release techniques, he could develop more on his own.

He could even learn from characters like Aokiji from One Piece or Toshiro Hitsugaya from Bleach to develop his own Ice Release technique.

Maybe it will even trigger the corresponding character template.

As for the unlock conditions, none of them are difficult.

Defeating three special Jonin is nothing special.

Previously, the Yuki-nin clan did not establish a village because there were not enough ninjas or strong ones, but after he came along, these were no longer problems.

The last one was a bit tricky; it involved defeating an Ice Release ninja.

Xia Mu only knew one ice-style ninja, and that was Haku's mother.

But the problem is he doesn't know where his mother is.

In the original work, it was only mentioned that Haku and his mother originally lived in a village in the Land of Water where it often snowed.

Theoretically, he only needs to unlock ability three to obtain Ice Release, and does not need to unlock ability four.

But Bai's mother is indeed pitiful; we can try to find her.

Moreover, after rescuing her, we can also have her join the Akatsuki organization.
