Konoha's lexicon of ninjas

Chapter 134 Fiery Netherworld Lock! (12,000 words, please subscribe and vote!)

As soon as Hoshino Shizuka completed the test, the term tree immediately reacted.

With his spirit focused, under the acronym tree, Xingxia Xiuyi saw that the acronyms "Master of Clone" and "Master of Substitutes" were both in an activatable state.

Light up!

Hoshinoichi lit up the two leaflets with the corresponding words in succession, and the word effects were immediately activated.

With a 100% increase in mental power, there is nothing in the world that cannot be used to create clones. As a master of clones, you can also see through any clone technique.

Stand talent increased by 100%, and strengthening a specific body part can increase it by 100%. There is nothing in the world that cannot be used as a Stand. As a Stand Master, others' Stand tricks are nothing in front of you, and you can see through them at a glance.

The enhancement of his mental strength made Hoshino Shuichi clearly feel a cool sensation in his brain, and even the mental body he was currently condensing felt stronger.

So, strengthening a specific body part can increase its effectiveness by 100%...

Hideichi Hoshishita pondered: "The brain?"

The term tree immediately responded, "Okay!"

trunk?

no respond.

Heart? Sure.

Little brother, sure.

……

So, which one to choose?

Hoshishita Shuichi pondered to himself: "Brain, heart, kidneys..."

"My mental processing speed, mental strength, and willpower have all improved, which should be considered as enhancing brain power. Of course, my physical condition has also improved; every part of my body has been enhanced."

"With the enhancement of the brain, even without the chakra protection of the Hundred Healings Technique, the concentration can be greatly improved, and a certain level of high concentration can be maintained normally."

"The heart propels blood flow, providing ample energy to all parts of the body. A strong heart is essential for powerful explosive force."

"And the kidneys, spleen... every organ is vital."

It's such a difficult decision.

After a moment's thought, Hoshino Shuichi ultimately chose the brain.

This includes the cerebrum and cerebellum!

In an instant, an electric shock struck my brain, and my consciousness went blank. It took me a while to recover.

Hoshino Shuichi immediately ramped up his mental processing speed and started trying with twice the focus.

It's very easy.

"Furthermore, my physical coordination has improved..."

Hoshino Hideichi flashed into the courtyard and stretched his body.

4 times more focus!

Hoshino Shuichi felt a little bit of a strain.

However, when he used the Hundred Healings Technique to nourish his cells with a small amount of chakra, this slight burden disappeared.

This is not the full opening of the Yin Seal or the Hundred Healings Technique, but rather a method similar to Tsunade's method of maintaining her appearance and prolonging her life.

He hadn't used Xingxia Xiuyi before because he was still developing and didn't need it at all.

5 times more focus!

Hoshino Shizuka assessed the pressure and said, "That's about right..."

"However, it's best not to use the Hundred Healing Technique normally. My brain is still developing, and I'll have to wait until I'm at least 18."

Hoshinoichi deactivated the effects of the Hundred Healings Technique and then reduced his focus to 3x.

This is a very comfortable state.

In the past, Hoshino Shuichi could only maintain 100% concentration for long periods of time.

Furthermore, in his current state, his thought process has reached twice the speed.

"Very good, very powerful!"

Hoshino Shuichi smiled broadly and then set off for Orochimaru's experimental base.

……

Meanwhile, in the Hokage's office.

Hiruzen Sarutobi presented the intelligence and advice delivered by Shuichi Seishi, then looked up at his son, Shinnosuke, and asked, "Shinnosuke, what do you think of Shuichi's analysis and advice?"

Sarutobi Shinnosuke sincerely said, "Shuichi's vision and intuition have always been accurate, and I think his judgment is completely correct."

"The Mist Ninja's attack on the Sand Village was thwarted, and they didn't gain much benefit, so they're definitely not willing to give up. The Fourth Kazekage needs greater prestige, or he also needs to secure benefits for the Sand Village to solidify his position. They have a basis for joining forces."

Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded, sighed, and said, "Then let's secretly reinforce our troops first. Also, send more secret agents to the Land of Rivers, the Land of Whirlpools, and the Land of Tea in the south."

The closest route for the Mist Ninja to attack Konoha is from the east coast, especially through the Land of Whirlpools.

Secondly, there is the peninsula south of the Land of Fire, where the Land of Tea is located.

"clear!"

Sarutobi Shinnosuke immediately accepted the order and went to make arrangements.

……

Time flies, and it's already December 28th. The New Year is just around the corner.

Just yesterday, the shadow clones reported back from the Land of Wind that after a standoff, the Sand Ninja were secretly making contact with the Mist Ninja.

After receiving this information, Hoshinobu Shuichi knew that it probably wouldn't be long before the Mist Ninja and the Sand Ninja would cease hostilities.

Then the Sand Ninja might launch a full-scale northward offensive, first driving the Iwa Ninja out of the Land of Wind's borders. Alternatively, they could launch a counterattack against the Iwa Ninja while simultaneously attacking Konoha together with the Kirigakure Ninja.

A single hair can affect the whole body.

Once the Mist Ninja and Sand Ninja make their move, will the Iwa Ninja, who have long been eager to take action against the Land of Grass, just watch?

And then there's the ever-present threat from the north, the Cloud Ninja, who have endured for so long. Can they really hold out any longer?

"At the earliest, in the latter half of next year, Konoha will probably be forced into war..."

Hideichi Hoshino sighed.

"It's a pity that Konoha doesn't control the entire Land of Fire, otherwise they would have sold a batch of supplies to Kirigakure, Sunagakure, and Iwagakure to make a fortune from the war."

"But in the end, the battles in the ninja villages are just battles between mercenaries supported by major powers."

Collecting his thoughts, Hoshino Shuichi wrote down the information and then had a crow deliver it to the Hokage Building.

He then activated the Yin Seal on his forehead, using the Hundred Healings Technique to envelop every brain cell with chakra, and then went into full power.

The fastest thinking speed!

Extreme focus!

"A Flash of Inspiration" activated!

The 10-minute "God Time" begins.

Countless pieces of information surfaced in his rapidly working brain. These were all the knowledge that Hoshino Shuichi had accumulated in the past. At this moment, this knowledge was being reorganized, collided with each other, and innovated through his powerful comprehension. Furthermore, one after another, wonderful flashes of inspiration emerged, opening up new paths in the darkness.

Many previous difficulties suddenly became clear, and what seemed like a dead end now has a new direction.

Moreover, Hoshino Shuichi increasingly felt that the more knowledge he acquired, the greater the gains he made in this state.

Many knowledge points that are not usually paid much attention to or are ignored become the key to solving difficult problems and dilemmas in this situation.

Unfortunately, the time was too short; 10 minutes flew by.

Hoshino Hideichi opened his eyes and let out a dissatisfied sigh.

We haven't had enough fun yet!

He retracted the Yin Seal, returned to his normal state, and picked up a brush to begin writing.

First, there is a sealing technique, which can be said to be the culmination of his previous learning of sealing techniques.

Unfortunately, his research on the soul was insufficient and he did not achieve his goal.

Then comes a more complex technique, but it belongs to the Xuanpi Ancient God Seal and is a supplement to this spell seal.

After completing the supplement, Hoshino Shizuka continued to draw the formula, but he also incorporated the Hundred Healings Technique into it.

Half an hour later, Hoshino Hideichi stopped writing, examined the incantation on the scroll, and nodded with a smile.

Although it wasn't possible to achieve the perfect result immediately, this kind of progress is still very good.

"Then, let's try the sealing technique first!"

"Although it didn't reach S-rank, A-rank should be pretty good."

Standing tall, Hoshino Hideichi stood in the center of the study. He then clasped his hands together, and his chakra surged rapidly, drawing out 70% of his maximum chakra.

Hair flew in the air, clothes fluttered in the wind.

Immediately afterwards, a series of clicking sounds rang out.

On Hoshino Shuichi's back, sections of dark blue chains emerged from his body.

Lighter-colored but still blue flames flickered along these sections of deep blue chains.

Splash!

The sound of chains rattling rang out, and the chains that had been slowly emerging suddenly sped up, extending rapidly.

The first rule was followed by the second, the third, and so on, until the sixth rule appeared, at which point it stopped.

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

"It's...it consumes too much chakra!"

Hoshino Shizuka lowered his hands and gasped for breath.

At his current age, his chakra reserves are already astonishing, yet he still struggles to use this sealing technique.

"The Adamantine Lockdown can really lock down the movements of tailed beasts, that's no joke..."

Catching his breath, Hoshino Shuichi felt the power of the chains he had gathered and smiled.

This sealing technique undoubtedly bears the shadow of the Diamond Lock, borrowing its form.

However, the sealing power is different from the Adamantine Sealing Technique. So far, he has not been able to completely decipher the Adamantine Sealing Technique, an A-rank sealing technique, from Asuka.

"I need to find someone to try dating..."

Hoshino Hideichi's gaze shifted and landed on the little four-tailed creature inside the Bagua seal on its abdomen.

The power of at most one tail is barely enough.

Splash!

The chains retracted into his body, and then, within the lake sealed by the Bagua seal, blue chains burning with flames suddenly appeared.

The resting four-tailed fox was immediately startled awake, and upon opening its eyes, it exclaimed in surprise: "Sealing technique?"

"Hey kid, what are you doing?"

Little Four-Tail roared and raised its arms to grab the sweeping chains, but instead it was entangled by the chains that moved like serpents.

Then his neck, torso, and lower limbs were chained up and he was forcibly lifted out of the lake of chakra.

"asshole!"

Little Four-Tail roared, "This posture is too humiliating!"

The chakra within its body erupted, but immediately the little four-tailed beast let out a painful roar: "Damn it... this sealing technique... it can actually burn my chakra!"

"No, he still has energy!"

At this moment, the little four-tailed fox was not only unable to move, but also unable to use its chakra.

Once activated, the chakra is ignited, not only dissipating but also burning the mind and consciousness, causing extreme pain that is unbearable and making it even more difficult to control the chakra.

"This brat's sealing technique... I can smell that Shukaku guy's scent."

"Could it be that he also obtained Shukaku's chakra?"

Little Four-Tail dared not move again, and drooped its head listlessly.

Hoshino Shuichi looked at this scene and nodded with satisfaction.

It's still unclear how it compares to the Vajra Lock, but its binding and sealing power is certainly not bad.

This perfectly showcased his immense advantage in Fire Release techniques!

Of course, this sealing technique is not simply a fire-style technique, but like the Adamantine Sealing Chains, it is based on Yin-style power.

"So, what should we call it?"

After retrieving the chains from the little four-tailed beast, Hoshino Shuichi withdrew his gaze and began to ponder.

"Well, this sealing technique is only at the A-level difficulty. It's not completely finished yet, and we'll have to consider naming it later."

"Then... let's call it the Fire Netherworld Lock!"

Hoshino Shuichi has decided that once he has fully perfected this sealing technique, making it capable of extracting souls and dividing tailed beasts, and reaching S-rank, he will use it as his own bloodline limit sealing technique!
