Konoha's lexicon of ninjas

Chapter 235 Luck Boosts, It's Gone Wild! (Please Subscribe and Vote)

Konan was stunned by Hoshino's gentle and composed smile, and her thoughts drifted back to the time when she trained under Jiraiya.

"Will Jiraiya-sensei regret staying to teach us?"

Looking down at Hoshino Shuichi's slender, pale hands, Konan couldn't help but wonder, "Will he regret his actions today?"

Thinking this, Konan couldn't help but raise her hand and place her palm on Hoshino Shuichi's hand, immediately feeling the intense heat.

Hoshino Shuichi, however, felt a chilling sensation, but he remained gentlemanly, making no unnecessary movements; only his chakra surfaced: "Chakra!"

Upon hearing this, Konan subconsciously refined her chakra. The two chakras met between their palms and fingers, and then their spirits connected, forming a world of their own.

"This is……"

Xiao Nan looked around curiously. Above her was a dazzling starry sky, and beneath her feet was a smooth mirror reflecting everything, rippling like water with the fluctuations of her emotions.

Hoshino Hideichi chuckled, "It seems you've never cultivated in this way before."

"This is the world of the mind, where our spirits are connected through chakra."

"The Sage of Six Paths founded the Ninja Sect and taught the methods of chakra training. In fact, he wanted to use chakra to connect people's hearts and minds so that people could understand each other."

Xiao Nan nodded, then asked, "Is studying here more effective than outside?"

Hoshino Hideichi plopped down and said, "Some things cannot be described by language, so spiritual communication is faster and more direct, and less likely to cause information distortion."

"Of course, there is another benefit, which is that it allows you to more truly feel and experience the changes in chakra when it is transformed into ninjutsu."

"Come on, let me show you how it feels."

Hoshita Shuichi extended his hand to Konan once again.

Xiao Nan sat down opposite him, and their palms touched again.

Then, under the guidance of Hoshino, Konan gradually opened her heart, and the two began to communicate on a spiritual level, exchanging information in the fastest, simplest, and lossless way.

Even the spiritual connection—Hoshita Shuichi allowed Konan to experience the state of his body turning into paper in his memories, the flow of chakra…

It is difficult for the mind to perceive the passage of time.

The sky outside was gradually darkening.

Nagato, who was controlling Hanzo in the Animal Path, also entered Konan's office. Looking at the two with their palms clasped together, he couldn't help but feel a little dazed.

If it were Yahiko, that would be so wonderful!

In the darkness of the tower, Nagato's expression was somewhat somber.

He could use the Reincarnation Technique to revive Yahiko right now, even if it meant paying the price with his life.

But doing so would be futile.

In such a war-torn world, after his death, Yahiko and Konan would likely also perish in battle, making resurrection futile.

Only by fundamentally changing the world can sacrifice become meaningful!

……

As darkness fell completely, Hoshino Shuichi and Konan opened their eyes almost simultaneously. After their eyes met, Konan subtly looked away and said, "Thank you!"

"but……"

Hoshino Hideichi chimed in, "But if we really face off in the future, there's no need to hold back."

At this point, Hanzo of the Animal Path was no longer in this office.

Xingxia Xiu stood up and said, "I'm leaving now. Do your best, and I'll put you to the test next month."

Xiao Nan was about to speak when Xingxia Xiu disappeared, leaving her feeling a sense of loss.

At that moment, Hanzo of the Animal Path walked in and asked, "How are you feeling?"

Konan paused for a moment before saying, "He is indeed very outstanding, with an astonishing talent for ninjutsu, and his teaching method is also very unique and efficient."

"Within six months, I am confident that I can master the technique he mentioned earlier, which will grant me immunity to physical attacks."

The beast-like Taoist nodded in agreement: "In that case, let's accept his suggestion and find a few more assistants from the village!"

Xiao Nan nodded: "I understand!"

……

Outside Amegakure, inside a cave, Hoshinobi Hideaki appeared, then walked to the cave entrance and looked towards the darkness of Amegakure: "It seems Nagato has awakened Wood Release!"

He wasn't particularly surprised.

If Obito Uchiha could use it, it's normal for Nagato to be able to as well, since Nagato himself also has the Ashura bloodline.

Moreover, in terms of talent, Nagato was superior to Obito Uchiha.

Nagato could withstand both Rinnegan, but Obito could only withstand one.

Perhaps Nagato's talent stemmed from his upbringing, but his natural gift is undeniable.

"I just don't know how far Nagato's Wood Release can go."

Hoshino Shuichi had some expectations.

Leaving aside the present, even in the original work, people who received interstitial cell transplants also exhibited different symptoms.

The worst was Danzo, who transplanted the Sharingan purely to use it.

Secondly, there's Obito Uchiha, but his options are limited.

Yamato inherited the most complete legacy, but his chakra was limited, so he could only be a dangdang architect.

The most powerful was Uchiha Madara, who could even perform techniques like Advent of a World of Trees and Wood Dragon Technique.

Even masters feel lonely!

With a sigh, Hoshino Shizuka disappeared.

……

After returning to Konoha Village and having dinner with Yakushi Nonou and the others, Hoshino Shuichi went to the experimental base, where the immortal White Zetsu was lying on the experimental table.

However, Hoshino Shuichi decided to further modify the immortal White Zetsu.

For example, he plans to use the software modification techniques he learned from Orochimaru, as well as the results of combining Hashirama's cells and Asuka's cells, to enhance the abilities of the immortal White Zetsu.

The reason for modifying the immortal White Zetsu was that Hoshino Shuichi wanted to control the immortal White Zetsu to enter the Akatsuki organization.

Time passed day by day.

November is coming to an end in the blink of an eye.

On this day, just as Hoshinoichi finished modifying the immortal white zeppelin, the lexicon tree stirred again.

"Has another new keyword been triggered?"

Hoshino was curious, but when he looked at the term tree, he found that it wasn't like that at all; there were terms that could be lit up and activated.

Entry: Widely Renowned

Acquisition Requirements: Spread your fame throughout the major ninja countries and villages of the ninja world.

Effects: Luck increased by 50%, persuasive skills increased by 100%, charm increased by 100%.

"I almost forgot about this entry..."

Hoshino Hideichi chuckled to himself and immediately activated the entry, which was instantly covered in red light.

"It's a red entry!"

Hoshita Shuichi was somewhat surprised.

However, he didn't feel much when the entry took effect. He raised his hand and used Water Release to create a reflection of himself, but Hoshino Shuichi didn't notice that he was more handsome than before.

"Luck... is a bit elusive and unpredictable."

Hoshino Hideichi suppressed his thoughts and looked at the immortal white zetsu that was gradually awakening.

"Lord Shuichi seems to have become much stronger."

The immortal White Zetsu stood up, feeling somewhat excited: "It seems that this defective product of mine has been repaired quite a bit and should have reached the level of a good product by now, right?"

"By the way, Lord Shuichi, did you give me a digestive system? I'm really looking forward to being able to poop like a normal person!"

Hoshino Hideichi was speechless.

Is eating just a means to poop?

"Don't worry, I'll be using this body too."

Hoshino Hideichi said irritably, and then used his Spirit Clone Technique to enter the body of the Immortal White Zetsu, sharing the body with the Immortal White Zetsu.

This is the spy he wanted to infiltrate the Akatsuki organization.

"To become a little deer named Kuohai."

A beautiful scene unfolds beneath the stars.

The immortal White Zetsu immediately replied, "As you wish, Lord Shuichi."

The next moment, in Hoshino Shuichi's eyes, the immortal white zeolite quickly transformed into Kurokai, the leader of the Jashin Cult.

The clone took over the body of the immortal White Zetsu and said, "So, besides taijutsu and the water-style techniques that Shikaku Kai is good at, do I need to demonstrate any other abilities?"

Hoshita Shuichi thought for a moment: "Regular taijutsu and water-style techniques aren't enough, let's add fire-style techniques too!"

The clone, Little Deer Kuohai, said, "If it's Fire Release, we can't use the ninjutsu we developed before. It seems we'll have to develop something else."

Hoshita Shuichi suggested, "We can combine Yin Release and Fire Release to develop Flame Release."

"clear."

Xiao Lu Kuohai stretched his body, and after fully mastering the technique, he nodded to Xingxia Xiu and used the Flying Thunder God Technique to leave.

After stretching, Hoshino Shuichi cleaned up the used equipment before leaving the laboratory.

"Huh?"

Hoshino Shuichi, who was about to go home, discovered that Tsunade was still there; it was almost 10 p.m.

However, when he went inside, he found that Tsunade was sleeping face down.

With a shift in his gaze, Hoshino Shuichi stepped forward, grabbed Tsunade's ponytail, and gently brushed the end of her hair against Tsunade's nose.

Tsunade wrinkled her nose and muttered, "You little pervert..."

Little pervert?

Are you talking about me?

Hoshino Shizuka blinked: Was he dreaming about me?

continue!

Tsunade couldn't help but raise her hand to scratch the itch.

Hoshino Shuichi immediately shifted his target to Tsunade's ears.

Hmm, those ears look kind of tempting?

Do not look at what is improper.

Just as Hoshino Shuichi was about to continue his prank, Tsunade slowly opened her eyes, first with a look of confusion, then with a sharp, knife-like gaze.

Run!

Hoshita Shuichi immediately teleported away.

Tsunade's hand missed its mark, and she gritted her teeth, "Damn brat!"

Her sweet dream was disturbed, which made her very unhappy.

However, thinking about the dream she just had, Tsunade blushed slightly: "I don't think I said anything, did I?"

and……

Tsunade feels like she's been having more dreams lately.

"Could it be the effect of that illusion from before?"

Tsunade frowned in reflection.

After Hoshino Shuichi cured her hemophobia with illusion magic, she would dream about scenes from the illusion magic whenever she slept, as if she had returned to the illusion magic dream.

She didn't doubt Hoshino Shuichi's abilities, but she sensed that the impact of such illusions on people was probably underestimated.

"Project Eye of the Moon..."

Tsunade clenched her fist: "This absolutely cannot be allowed to happen!"

After getting up and washing her face in the bathroom, Tsunade glanced at the still-busy White Zetsu Tobi and Hoshino Shuichi's clones, and then silently left the experimental base.

Silent all night.

The next day, just as Hoshino Shuichi returned from training in the morning, Tobi, the White Zetsu, emerged from underground and said in an exaggerated tone, "Lord Shuichi, I have some good news to report to you."

Hoshino Shuichi, who was about to take a shower, said irritably, "Hurry up and tell me."

White Zetsu Tobi, unrepentant as ever: "Thanks to your amazing wisdom, Lord Shuichi, not long ago, we finally achieved a perfect fusion of Hashirama's cells and the Uzumaki clan's cells, reaching an astonishing level of compatibility!"

Hoshino Hideichi was immediately taken aback upon hearing this.

It was completed suddenly?

Based on the previous progress, it shouldn't be this fast.

So lucky, the experiment...

Hoshita Shuichi suddenly realized: "Luck?"

"The [Famous] stat effect was activated yesterday!"

Hoshita Shuichi couldn't help but smile: "Very good!"

"Ah Fei, you go back first, I'll be there soon."

After saying that, Hoshino Shuichi quickly went into the bathroom.

After taking a shower, quickly finishing breakfast, and hugging Pharmacist Nono and Asuka, Hoshino Shuichi teleported to the experimental base.

The clone is dispelled, and the memories return.

Hoshita Shuichi then looked at Shiro, who was being used in the experiment again: "How are you feeling?"

Xiao Bai laughed and said, "That's fantastic!"

"Lord Shuichi, my power has been enhanced once again."

Seeing that Shiro had calmed down, Hoshino immediately said, "Then let's see how far your chakra has gone."

Upon hearing this, Xiaobai immediately unleashed his chakra.

With a boom, the air currents surged, and the gigantic Whitey was enveloped in blue chakra light.

Hoshita Shuichi looked on with delight: "This level is already comparable to the One-Tailed Beast!"

Bai Jue Afei, standing to the side, also said, "It is indeed astonishing, especially since it was made from the cells of us defective individuals and then transplanted."

"If we use interstitial cells for formulation, the effects will be even more amazing!"

Hoshino Shuichi, however, was quite satisfied: "This is already very good."

Because he knew very well that Hashirama's cells were too strong, while Asuka's cells were relatively weaker, making it more difficult to achieve a balance. That's why he previously used a weakened version like White Zetsu cells.

Of course, with the current perfect results, the subsequent exploration will be much simpler, and Hoshino Shuichi is confident that he can completely conquer Hashirama's cells.

However, such achievements will not be misused on a large scale.

The limited edition white version is more suitable for medical promotion.

After having Shiro collect his chakra, Hoshino Shuichi dispelled the summoning, then created another clone and said, "We can try using Moonlight Hayate's cells to prepare it, and then selectively cultivate both lungs!"

The experiment on Shiro was a success. Next, the experiment will continue on Tobi, while Hayate Gekko will be the first human experiment.

Because Bai Jue isn't a real person!

Leaving his clone and White Zetsu Tobi to continue their experiments, Hoshino Shizuka Shuichi went outside, only to run into Tsunade.

"What was that chakra just now?"

"Tsunade asked."

Hoshino Hideichi laughed and said, "Great news!"

"Come with me."

As he spoke, Hoshino Shuichi grabbed Tsunade's hand and, before she could react, used Flying Thunder God Technique to teleport to the rest room.

Naturally releasing Tsunade's hand, Hoshino Shuichi smiled and said, "The White Zetsu cells, or rather, the First Hokage's cells, have perfectly fused with Asuka's cells to achieve a balance."

"The two Yang Dun properties combine into one, resulting in an even more astonishing effect."

Tsunade was both surprised and delighted upon hearing this: "So fast?"

"This means there are no side effects, which means that White Zetsu cells can be transplanted into other ordinary ninjas."

Xingxia Xiu nodded: "This is absolutely a revolution in medical technology."

"This means we can customize cloned organs and limbs to treat more injuries and diseases."

"Of course, the most important thing is that by studying and mastering this change in the nature of Yang Release, it means that many injuries that were previously untreatable can now be treated on the battlefield."

Tsunade nodded emphatically, her eyes slightly red.

Because she was reminded of her younger brother and her first love, Duan.

If we had technology like this...

Seeing Tsunade's expression, Hoshino Shuichi knew she was thinking about the past again, but instead of offering any comfort, he clasped his hands together and said, "Tsunade, for such a technique to be used on the battlefield, the best approach is naturally for medical ninjas to master its nature transformation."

"Performing cell transplants on the battlefield is not an easy task."

Tsunade nodded upon hearing this, and composed herself, saying, "That's true."

There is still a considerable distance between experimentation and mastering the same property changes.

Unless cell transplantation is performed directly.

Although she had already made her decision, Tsunade still had her own pride.

Hoshita Shuichi lowered his eyes, and then a rich green chakra light appeared on his body, instantly filling the entire room with a strong life force.

Tsunade waited silently.

As time passed, the green chakra light on Hoshino Shuichi's body gradually weakened and subsided.

Three hours later, the chakra light completely disappeared, and Hoshino Shuichi opened his eyes, a broad smile on his face: "Success!"
