Naruto: Fusion of Multiverse Character Templates

Chapter 83 Gordon Template, Hanzo's Nemesis (First and Second Updates)

A torrential downpour began.

Wearing a raincoat, Natsuki followed Jiraiya without saying a word.

The Land of Rain, as the name suggests, is a country with a lot of rain, where it rains all year round.

The excessive rainfall has resulted in a unique architectural style in the Land of Rain, which is quite different from other countries, giving it a steel city feel.

With the help of ninjas from the Hyuga and Aburame clans, the group arrived at their destination without any major incidents.

A stronghold located in a valley, but the land surrounding the stronghold is a deep black.

Both plants and insects withered and died.

It was obvious that the ground had been sprayed with a highly toxic substance.

To enter the stronghold, you must first cross this poisonous land.

"There are eight Amegakure ninja inside the stronghold."

A Hyuga clan ninja spoke up, "There are sixteen Konoha ninjas being imprisoned."

"The priority this time is to save lives."

Jiraiya said in a deep voice, "I will lead the men to infiltrate first. After we successfully rescue them, the remaining men will be in charge of Natsuki, who will hold off the Amegakure ninjas."

Everyone looked surprised upon hearing this.

Although they knew that Natsuki was Orochimaru's student and had great talent, they didn't think he was strong enough to be in charge.

After all, besides Jiraiya, there were three other Jonin.

Uchiha Mikoto was even more taken aback.

Could it be that Jiraiya thought Natsuki was stronger than three Jonin?

"that's all."

Jiraiya didn't offer much explanation, and simply chose four ninjas skilled in infiltration as his teammates to go and rescue people.

This also included ninjas from the Nara clan.

This is related to Xia Mu.

After Natsuki and the Nara clan completed their transaction, many members of the Nara clan gradually learned the Shadow Assassin and Shadow Space techniques.

"Once the ninjas of Amegakure make any move, you must stop them immediately."

After Jiraiya finished speaking, he led his men toward the base.

He put Xia Mu in charge not only because Xia Mu had previously said he wanted to experience the poison of the salamander, but also for two other reasons.

Firstly, he understood Natsuki's true strength, especially after Natsuki defeated Tsukino Eito and Mifune.

In terms of strength, the other three Jonin were indeed inferior to him.

Secondly, out of respect for Orochimaru and Tsunade, they will promote him.

After all, the person in charge deserves the most credit.

After Jiraiya and the others left, the remaining eight people fell into silence.

Although they didn't say anything, Xia Mu could guess what they were thinking.

If he performs poorly this time, he will likely be labeled with other tags.

However, Xia Mu naturally wouldn't give them that chance.

Being in charge also makes it easier for him to directly confront the salamander god.

Time passed slowly.

In less than half an hour, the stronghold became lively.

Xia Mu immediately activated his clairvoyance.

He immediately saw Jiraiya and the others escorting the captured Konoha ninjas as they ran away.

Behind them were Amegakure ninjas chasing after them.

With Jiraiya's strength, he could actually have defeated them.

However, he was worried about the impact on the captured Konoha ninja, so he did not take action.

"Leave the salamander to me."

After Xia Mu finished speaking, he took out the projected image of Kurosawa.

Water Breathing - Seventh Form - Shizuku Ripple Strike!

In an instant, the rain falling from the sky seemed to stop.

After a brief pause, streams of water shot out like long snakes, creating circular ripples in the air.

Xia Mu disappeared from the spot and rushed forward at an incredible speed.

This is the fastest move in the Water Breathing technique.

A scream rang out.

The Amegakure ninja closest to Natsuki was pierced directly by Kurosawa.

Uchiha Mikoto and the others were shocked by what they saw.

But Kurosawa did not stop.

As the blood splattered, it aimed at the salamander.

The salamander god sensed the danger.

He immediately stopped chasing Jiraiya and the others, and pulled out a black umbrella from behind his back.

Ninja Art: A Thousand Drops of Dew!

The black umbrella opened, and as it spun, countless senbon needles flew out.

Seeing this, Natsuki stepped back, but released Kurosawa.

The salamander god immediately sensed something was amiss.

What kind of swordsmanship ninja would throw their own swords out as ninja tools?

Although he didn't understand, he didn't slow down his movements.

The black umbrella immediately blocked his way.

A jingling sound rang out.

The senbon struck Kurosawa first, slowing him down, and by the time it landed on the black umbrella, most of its force had been reduced.

With a cold snort, Sanshokujin Da was about to swing his black umbrella to knock Kurosawa away when Kurosawa suddenly exploded.

A terrifying surge of chakra instantly struck the black umbrella.

The salamander god's expression changed drastically.

A terrifying force struck, and the black umbrella shattered into pieces in the explosion.

His body also flew backward uncontrollably.

Uchiha Mikoto and the others fell silent.

They never expected that the salamander would suffer such a great loss in just one encounter.

Especially those three Jonin, they felt they couldn't do it either.

In a short time, they accepted Xia Mu as the person in charge.

"asshole!"

The salamander god stopped in his tracks, and was immediately enraged.

He was ambushed by a child and was at a disadvantage, which he found unbearable.

Sanshoyu Shinta immediately formed hand seals.

A pungent odor suddenly appeared.

What followed was a cloud of poisonous fog.

The fog, instead of being slowed down by the rain, spread even faster.

One-Sword Style: Thirty-Six Troubles of the Phoenix!

Xia Mu took out another projected Kurosawa sword and swung it directly.

A wave of sword energy slammed into the poisonous mist and immediately exploded.

The fog dispersed.

The salamander god and the other Amegakure ninjas quickly moved away.

White spray!

Xia Mu leaped up, avoiding the poisonous fog.

Although he had the antidote, he avoided contact with the fog whenever possible.

After all, it takes time to drink the antidote.

Water Breathing - Eighth Form - Water Teapot!

Xia Mu slashed down with his sword.

The water flowed down like a waterfall, following the energy of the sword.

Sanshoyu Shinta immediately formed hand seals.

A wall of water rose up in front of him.

But he didn't stop. Instead, he retreated while taking out a sickle with a chain attached.

Besides poison, Hanzo also possesses powerful water-style abilities and astonishing swordsmanship.

But his knife was no ordinary knife; it was a flying scythe, a scythe with a chain attached.

It's clear that the salamander god also learned his swordsmanship.

Summer leaves fall to the ground.

Kurosawa hit the water wall, and the water wall immediately trembled violently.

With a powerful flick of his wrist, the salamander's sickle flew out and aimed directly at Natsuki's head.

Upon closer inspection, Xia Mu discovered that the sickle was coated with a deadly poison.

He gripped Kurosawa and swung his sword suddenly.

Breath of Water - Fourth Form - Tide of Strike!

With a clang.

The scythe flew out at an even faster speed.

Sanshokujin frowned slightly, his wrist flicked rapidly, and the chain undulated, dissipating the force from the scythe.

Sword Technique: Iai Slash!

He gripped the sickle and vanished from the spot.

In the original work, Hanzo defeated Mifune using his swordsmanship, the Iaijutsu.

Ittō-ryū (One-Sword Style), Iaijutsu (Quick Attack), and Shishi-sō (Lion's Lament)!

Xia Mu drew his sword with his left hand and then took out another sword, Kurosawa.

The two blades collided.

Natsuki and Sanshoku Shinta reached a stalemate.

But at that moment, the salamander god opened his mouth with a sinister grin, and a wisp of mist rushed straight towards Natsuki.

If it were the old Natsuki, he probably wouldn't have been able to avoid it.

Now, he possesses the reaction abilities of Kirito.

Xia Mu immediately held his breath and used Shadow Assassin.

"What's going on?"

The sudden disappearance of Natsuki caught the Salamander God Tatsu off guard, causing him to lean forward.

Kurosawa, who had been left behind by Natsuki, suddenly exploded.

The salamander's pupils contracted, and he instinctively raised his scythe to block.

But it can only block part of it.

He let out a muffled groan, and a lot of blood appeared on his body.

Natsuki reappears.

He grabbed Kurosawa and jumped up suddenly.

Breathing of Water, Form of Gathering, Flow of Life!

The nearby rain was suddenly drawn in by his Water Release chakra.

Amidst the roar, a gigantic water dragon appeared behind him.

When Sanshoku Shinta raised his head, all he could see was the glint of blades.

Xia Mu unleashed several spinning slashes in a single instant.

The water dragon descended from the sky and covered the salamander god.

Red blood spurted outwards.

The salamander god fell backward and lost consciousness.

Xia Mu exhaled and put away Kurosawa.

He looked around and met the surprised gazes of Uchiha Mikoto and the others.

While he was fighting the salamander god, the others had already dealt with the other Amegakure ninja.

He was one of the last to finish the fight.

That's why others saw his amazing performance.

Especially Jiraiya.

He thought he knew Xia Mu's strength well, but most of the Water Breathing techniques he used tonight were sword techniques he had never seen before.

Clearly, Xia Mu has created many new sword techniques.

With the added benefit of the rain, he was able to kill the salamander god without taking any damage.

Jiraiya now doubts whether Minato Namikaze, having mastered the Flying Thunder God Technique, can defeat him.

Aside from Jiraiya, the most shocking person was Uchiha Mikoto.

They had sparred several times during their time at the Ninja Academy, and overall they were evenly matched.

But the current Xia Mu felt both unfamiliar and powerful to her.

Mikoto Uchiha felt that the only advantage she had against him now was her genjutsu.

You have awakened the Gordon Agrippa template.

Suddenly, a line of text appeared before Xia Mu's eyes.

He was suddenly jolted awake.

As expected, a new character template was triggered.

But who is Gordon?

The Gordon in Xia Mu's memory is that Gordon from Gotham City.

He looked at the character template he had just received.

[Name: Gordon Agrippa]

[Time period: The Spirit Reincarnation Incident.]

[World: Black Clover.]

[Rank: B]

[Ability 1: Forbidden Fruit, unlocked.]

[Effect: Liquid poison condenses on both hands, causing corrosive damage to the target.]

[Ability 2: Poison Cloud's Abode, not yet unlocked.]

[Effect: Releases a large-scale toxic cloud, causing corrosive damage.]

[Unlock condition: Poison ten targets at once.]

[Ability 3: Violet Umbrella, not yet unlocked.]

[Effect: Generates a liquid barrier that can resist attacks and corrode targets it comes into contact with.]

[Unlock condition: Learn Water Release: Water Wall.]

[Ability 4: Curse Antidote, not yet unlocked.]

[Effect: Can cure most magical poisons, cursed poisons, biological poisons, chemical poisons, and miasma poisons.]

[Unlock condition: Successfully prepare the recipe once.]

[Ability 5: Poison to Medicine, not yet unlocked.]

[Effect: Converts absorbed poison gas into medical ninjutsu, which can heal one's own injuries.]

[Unlock condition: Fight poison with poison; poison magic saves three Jonin.]

After reading it, Xia Mu thought of Gordon Agrippa.

He is a member of the Black Bulls in Black Clover, and is skilled in poison magic and curse magic.

During the Elf Reincarnation incident, he saved his partner, Goshu Adlai, who was being controlled.

Natsuki felt that his act of saving the captured Konoha ninjas triggered the Gordon Agrippa template.

It has to be said that the Gordon Agrippa template came at just the right time.

Although he is a B-rank, he is very targeted at Hanzo.

Ability 1: Forbidden Fruit.

Gordon Agrippa's signature poison magic can cause corrosive damage.

If you put it in the context of Naruto, you can only say it's passable.

Because Gordon Agrippa's template is grade B.

This means that his poison magic is equivalent to a B-rank ninjutsu in Naruto, which is quite effective against some genin and chunin.

Ability Two: The Abode of the Poison Cloud.

It's like a multi-target version of the Forbidden Fruit, which can be used to clear out mobs.

The unlock condition isn't too difficult: poison ten targets at once.

There are no restrictions on the number of targets; he can probably unlock them simply by randomly placing them during group battles.

Ability 3: Violet Umbrella.

Compared to the first two abilities, this one is more useful, as it combines both offensive and defensive capabilities.

It's equivalent to a Water Release: Water Formation Wall with poison added.

Its requirement is to learn Water Escape: Water Formation Wall.

Xia Mu has now mastered the second stage of Water Release chakra nature transformations, so learning Water Release: Water Wall is not particularly difficult.

Fourth ability: Curse antidote.

This is undoubtedly the ability that Xia Mu desires most, as it can solve his immediate problem.

One of its effects is the detoxification of biological toxins.

Hanzo's poison is a biological poison, as it comes from the poison of the summoning beast, the salamander.

Of course, whether it can be solved or not can only be known after it has been properly prepared.

Its unlocking conditions are the same as the previous Enfield template; successful configuration will unlock it.

But this recipe is very complicated.

It probably won't be possible to get it ready in a short time.

However, Natsuki also thought it made sense.

Hanzo's poison was unparalleled in the ninja world, even Tsunade couldn't handle it, so it would be unreasonable for him to be able to concoct an antidote so easily.

Actually, Xia Mu was already quite satisfied with the ending here, but he didn't expect there to be another incredible ability, the fifth one: poison to medicine.

It completely counteracts the poison of Hanzo and the salamander.

Because once unlocked, Xia Mu can turn poison into medicine and heal himself.

Its unlocking conditions are much more complicated.

They need to use poison magic to save the three Jonin.

Poison magic, without a doubt, refers to Ability One, Ability Two, and Ability Three.

Using three B-rank ninjutsu to save three Jonin is quite difficult.

But no matter how difficult it is, we must do it.

After all, as Orochimaru's student, Natsuki would inevitably face Hanzo sooner or later.

When he inhales the poison gas in front of Hanzo, his head will probably be blown to bits.

Fortunately, it was a rescue, not a defeat.

"Xia Mu, why are you suddenly spacing out?"

Jiraiya stepped forward and said, "The mission is over. Let's hurry up and leave before Amegakure's reinforcements arrive."

"I suddenly had some ideas about the antidote."

"That's what Xia Mu replied."

"what?"

Jiraiya was stunned.

Although Natsuki had previously said he wanted to fight the salamander Shinta to find inspiration, he didn't believe it at all.

It's not that simple.

If it were that simple, Hanzo's poison wouldn't be a problem for any medical ninja in the entire ninja world.

But he actually had an inspiration.

Jiraiya hesitated, unsure how to respond.
