Naruto: Fusion of Multiverse Character Templates

Chapter 84 Hanzo's Swordsmanship (Third Update)

Xia Mu and his group successfully returned to Konoha Village's headquarters in the Land of Rain.

"Natsuki, go directly to Tsunade."

Jiraiya gave the order.

Although Natsuki said he had an inspiration, he didn't ask any further questions because he didn't know how to make the antidote.

"OK."

Xia Mu nodded and said.

He greeted Mikoto Uchiha again, then turned and went to the laboratory where Tsunade was.

"Tsunade-sensei."

Xia Mu walked in.

"Is the mission complete?"

Tsunade looked him over and, seeing that he was indeed uninjured, nodded slightly and asked.

"It went smoothly; the captured Konoha ninja have been rescued."

Xia Mu paused for a moment, then said, "I suddenly had some ideas while fighting the salamander Jinda."

"What are your thoughts?"

Tsunade was slightly taken aback and couldn't help but ask.

She shared the same idea as Jiraiya, and unexpectedly, Natsuki's trip abroad actually gave her inspiration.

But inspiration is one thing; whether it will be effective in treating the antidote remains to be seen.

"Fight poison with poison."

"That's what Xia Mu replied."

The antidote for the curse provided by the Gordon template is essentially a mixture of highly toxic substances.

In Black Clover, curse magic and poison magic also need to be added.

After localization, the curse magic and poison magic were removed, leaving only seven kinds of deadly poisons.

"You mean you've found a poison comparable to Hanzo poison?"

Tsunade shook her head and said, "This kind of deadly poison does not exist in the ninja world."

The concept of fighting poison with poison is not new to her.

Simply put, some medicinal herbs, although poisonous, can be used to save lives when neutralized with other herbs.

"Multiple poisons can be mixed together."

Xia Mu changed the subject and said, "I think this is a possible approach, and we can give it a try."

"It is indeed a feasible approach, but it will take a lot of time."

Tsunade rubbed her temples and said, "There are many poisons in the ninja world. We have to experiment to find out which types of poison we need."

"There's nothing we can do about it."

Xia Mu comforted him, saying, "It's not something that can be cured of Hanzo's poison in a short time."

Although he already knew the formula, he couldn't tell Tsunade directly.

In addition, these seven highly toxic substances need to be refined, and three of them are synthetic poisons.

The most troublesome kind of poison, even related to Chiyo's poison.

"Um.

""

Tsunade sighed and said, "It seems it's time to return to Konoha. This laboratory is too rudimentary for testing poisons."

Xia Mu nodded.

He has been in the Land of Rain for almost a week.

Overall, it was a good harvest.

Not only did it unlock Kirito's reaction ability, it also awakened the Gordon template for special attacks against Hanzo.

In a sense, it was also a special attack on puppeteers like Chiyo.

Of course, Hanzo, Chiyo, and the others' strength did not come entirely from poison.

It's just that without the poison, their strength will be greatly reduced.

"Without further ado, let's go see Orochimaru now."

Tsunade finished the experiment and walked outside.

Her experiments with antidotes during this period had all been fruitless, which is why she agreed to Xia Mu's experiment of using poison to fight poison.

After seeing Tsunade and Natsuki, Orochimaru waved his hand, signaling the other ninjas in the main tent to leave.

Orochimaru.

Tsunade got straight to the point, saying, "It's unlikely that we'll make any progress on Hanzo's poison in the short term. We plan to return to Konoha and continue our research."

"Alright then."

Orochimaru nodded and said, "Those seriously ill and wounded can't be delayed any longer. You will escort them back."

As a battlefield commander, he would know about Tsunade's daily work of making antidotes, so he knew that what she said was true.

"teacher."

Suddenly remembering something, Natsuki asked, "Did you extract any memories from the corpse of the salamander, Shinta?"

"Jiraiya is working on this, and we expect to have results soon."

Orochimaru replied.

"Perhaps he has the formula for the antidote in his memory."

Xia Mu guessed.

"I think it's unlikely."

Tsunade shook her head and said, "Poison is too important to Amegakure. Hanzo won't let anyone else know the formula for the antidote."

Xia Mu actually felt the same way.

But his main purpose was not the formula for the antidote.

Not long after, Jiraiya walked in.

"Is there any valuable intelligence?"

Orochimaru spoke up.

"Knowing the locations of some of Amegakure's outposts will be of great help in the upcoming war."

Jiraiya said with a smile, "This rescue mission was well worth it."

"No antidote formula?"

Tsunade asked.

"no."

Jiraiya said regretfully.

"Does he have any swordsmanship like Hanzo?"

Xia Mu blinked and asked.

"There is indeed a set of sword techniques in his memory."

Jiraiya paused for a moment, then handed him a scroll and said casually, "His swordsmanship is right here."

"Thank you, Jiraiya-sama."

Xia Mu took the scroll, thinking to himself that he was one step closer to mastering the six sword techniques of the ninja world.

"Hanzo's swordsmanship is good, but it's not conventional and doesn't suit your style."

Orochimaru commented, "Besides that, the reason his swordsmanship is so difficult to deal with is because both he and his sword are highly poisonous."

The thought of fighting a swordsman ninja covered in poison in close combat is terrifying.

"I just wanted to use it as a reference."

Natsuki explained, "We might run into Hanzo someday."

"Um.

""

Orochimaru didn't say anything more.

"The matter is temporarily settled, let's return to Konoha now."

Tsunade spoke swiftly and decisively.

"what?"

Jiraiya asked in surprise, "Are you leaving?"

"Xia Mu proposed a strategy of fighting poison with poison, which we can study once we return to Konoha."

Tsunade explained.

"Fighting poison with poison?"

Jiraiya took a deep breath and said, "Alright, I'll see you off. I hope you can develop an antidote soon."

Tsunade nodded.

After leaving the main tent, Jiraiya immediately made arrangements.

Natsuki stood there for a moment, thought about it, and then decided not to go and say goodbye to Uchiha Mikoto.

It's wartime now, so there's not much to say. Besides, they'll definitely meet again in the Land of Rain soon.

After all the wounded were loaded onto stretchers, Tsunade and the others headed towards Konoha Village.

Jiraiya stopped walking after seeing them off from the Land of Rain.

Perhaps for this reason, the group's return journey went quite smoothly, without encountering any ninjas from Amegakure or Sunagakure.

"You take them to Konoha Hospital, and Natsuki and I will go to the Hokage's office."

Upon arriving at Konoha Village, Tsunade gave her instructions.

"Yes, Lady Tsunade."

The other ninjas responded and led the wounded away.

Tsunade and Natsuki quickly arrived at the Hokage's office.

After receiving permission, the two went inside.

Tsunade immediately recounted what had happened in the past few days.

"You have done a great job."

Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded and praised, "As for Hanzo's poison, it would be best if it could be cured, but if it can't, don't force it."

"I see."

Tsunade knew that Hiruzen Sarutobi was worried that she would get stuck on the problem and spend a lot of time trying to detoxify herself, which would ultimately be counterproductive.

"However, you can try out Xia Mu's approach when you have time."

Hiruzen Sarutobi added, "If there's any poison that's hard to find, we can ask the Anbu for help."

"OK."

Tsunade did not refuse.

With the village's help, the experiment of fighting poison with poison was more likely to succeed.

After all, a village has a lot of resources.

"Natsuki killed the salamander Gami during this mission, which was a great achievement."

Hiruzen Sarutobi chuckled and said, "You can ask for a reward, or you can save your merits for now."

"Thank you, Hokage-sama."

Xia Mu immediately replied, "I don't know what reward I want for now, so I'll save it for later."

After the mission report was completed, the two returned to Mito Uzumaki's residence.

"You're finally back!"

When Rope Tree saw them, he became excited.

"Natsuki!"

Kushina Uzumaki jogged up to Natsuki.

Yakushi Nonou was a step behind, so she could only follow behind her.

Tsunade smiled, not minding the two girls ignoring her.

Did you encounter Hanzo during your trip to the Land of Rain?

Nawaki asked curiously, "I heard that he is very strong, no less than the Kage of the Five Great Villages."

"Didn't encounter it."

Xia Mu shook his head and said, "But his poison is indeed very potent, and there's no cure for it right now."

"Sister, even you can't untangle this?"

Upon hearing this, Nawaki turned to Tsunade with a surprised expression and asked.

"Your sister isn't omnipotent."

Tsunade flicked his forehead and said, "You guys talk, I'm going to Konoha Hospital, I have some things to do."

""

"Xia Mu, tell me about this mission!"

Kushina Uzumaki, looking quite interested, said, "I've never been to the Land of Rain!"

Xia Mu chuckled and gave them a brief account of the mission.

Does it rain every day?

Kushina Uzumaki frowned and said, "That sounds hard to accept."

It's fine if it rains occasionally, but if it rains every day, it can be really annoying.

"It's really impressive that we were able to defeat so many enemies."

Rope Tree said enviously.

"It's okay, we'll be able to become official ninjas in another semester."

Xia Mu said with a smile, "At that time, it will be difficult for you not to go out and do missions."

"I hope my teammates are you guys."

Kushina Uzumaki said with an expectant look on her face.

Rope Tree hesitated, then ultimately said nothing.

As the Nine-Tails' jinchūriki, Kushina Uzumaki was most likely not allowed to have teammates.

After chatting for a while, everyone continued their cultivation.

Although half of the winter vacation has already passed, there is still half left.

Xia Mu's plan is to learn Hanzo's swordsmanship and Water Release: Water Formation Wall.

He formed a hand seal and created a shadow clone.

The shadow clone went to Rope Tree to learn Water Release: Water Formation Wall.

He then opened the scroll that Jiraiya had given him.

Hanzo's swordsmanship is actually quite similar to Mifune's, both emphasizing speed.

The only difference was that the knife he used was a sickle with a chain.

Natsuki had seen the salamander's scythe before, so he could project it.

Besides, he only learned Hanzo's swordsmanship to meet the unlocking conditions for the character template ability.

He definitely won't use it in battle.
