Konoha's lexicon of ninjas

Genetic defects are not so easy to compensate for.

Bloodline diseases like those caused by Moonlight Hayate have not yet been cured.

It was only by relying on Hashirama cells to counteract the harm caused by the bloodline disease that Hayate Gekko appeared to have been cured.

Based on current research on interstitial cells, Kimimaro's transplantation of interstitial cells would certainly not pose any problem.

However, Kimimaro's bloodline disease is much more serious than that of Hayate Gekko.

The intercolumnar cells were also unable to counteract the damage caused by his use of the bloodline limit.

Or, to put it another way, the neutralized interstitial cells were not potent enough.

Of course, Hoshino Shuichi has already decided to perform a Hashirama cell transplant on Kimimaro after the Chunin Championship, to lay the foundation first.

If possible, the strength of the transplanted cells will be gradually increased.

This includes the power of the Ten-Tails cells, and even the Otsutsuki cells, or rather, Kaguya's All-Killing Ash Bones.

However, Kimimaro might not be able to withstand it, even though Kaguya is also Kimimaro's ancestor, and the Shikotsumyaku (Corpse Bone Pulse) originated from Kaguya.

After all, Kimimaro didn't have any special abilities like Hoshino Shuichi.

After speaking of Kimimaro, Minato Namikaze looked at Haku and smiled, "Ice Release: Rasengan, and you should also have Ice Release: Rasenshuriken, right?"

Hoshino nodded: "Bai is very talented, and his ability to create Ice Release techniques is also very strong."

"The future will be a super shadow."

The Fourth Kazekage immediately turned his gaze away from his daughter and asked, "Lord Shuichi, what do you think of Temari?"

Temari?

Hoshino Hideichi's gaze shifted and landed on Temari, who was holding a fan.

In a daze, I remembered the little girl who wanted to defeat him back then.

They've grown up!

Instantly, all the details of Temari's missions flooded into his mind, and he said, "Your use of Wind Release is quite good; it's already very impressive for your age."

"He even learned a bit of Wind Release chakra mode. Was it taught to him by Maki?"

The Fourth Kazekage nodded: "Maki is her teacher."

Maki received special training from Hoshino Shuichi and later obtained Hoshino Shuichi's cursed seal, gradually mastering the Wind Release Chakra Mode.

This Wind Release Chakra Mode wasn't taught by Hoshino Shuichi, but rather developed step by step by Maki based on Hoshino Shuichi's guidance during their special training.

Besides Maki, there was another person who mastered the Wind Release Chakra Mode, namely Sarutobi Asuma.

Unlike Maki, Sarutobi Asuma obtained the power of the Tailed Beasts through several experiments. After mastering the Wind Release Chakra Mode, he quickly mastered the Fire Release Chakra Mode. By combining the two and with the support of the Tailed Beast Chakra, he achieved the same level as Hoshino Shuichi back then.

They are now exploring the Burning Escape Technique.

Compared to Sarutobi Asuma, Maki has always been exploring Wind Release techniques, striving to achieve the ultimate.

In the entire ninja world, Maki's Wind Release technique is certainly not the strongest.

However, if we're talking about Sunagakure, then his Wind Release technique can indeed be considered the strongest.

Even the Fourth Kazekage would feel inferior to him.

Temari's teachings to Maki are indeed much stronger than those in the original work.

At this age, being able to grasp the basics of Wind Release chakra mode is already quite impressive, enough to stand out from many Chunin.

Of course, Hoshino Shuichi knew that the Fourth Kazekage wasn't just asking about how Temari was doing now.

So he continued, "Maki has already done a very good job on the Wind Release path, and Temari can continue down that path."

"But to go further, one must possess a powerful physique and an astonishing amount of chakra."

"Of course, there is another path, which is the bloodline limit, bloodline elimination, and bloodline net. The Third Tsuchikage has already explained to us that bloodline power has an astonishing effect on the human body itself."

"Of course, there's also the power of magic."

"When the upper limit has been reached, then expand horizontally, accumulate strength, and make a breakthrough."

"However, Temari is not in a hurry. It's not too late to try it after she has fully mastered the Wind Release Chakra Mode."

The Fourth Kazekage nodded, but then said, "Lord Shuichi, let Temari receive the Sage Art Seal."

This sentence made both Onoki and the Fourth Raikage turn their heads.

They all knew that Hoshino Shuichi's Sage Art Seal had both advantages and disadvantages.

Over the years, their response has been to try their best to master Sage Mode through their own learning.

If all else fails, one can settle for second best by using immortal magic seals to assist in cultivating Immortal Mode. Once mastered, the seals can be immediately removed when no longer needed.

Finally, when it becomes truly impossible to master Sage Mode on one's own, one is forced to use the cursed seal.

In reality, over the years, not to mention those who mastered Sage Mode through Mount Myōboku, very few people have even mastered Sage Mode on their own with the help of the Cursed Seal.

Because the biggest prerequisite for mastering Sage Mode is having a sufficiently large amount of chakra.

This blocked the vast majority of Jonin.

Therefore, most people still rely on Hoshino Shuichi's cursed seal.

Therefore, the Fourth Kazekage had thought it through very clearly.

Hoshino Shuichi is already the king of this era; to refuse is to refuse the future.

With Hoshino Shuichi's strength, he could easily end the existence of the five great ninja villages. The reason for choosing the current peaceful model is obviously to preserve the talent of the ninja world.

In such an era, an era whose future seems predetermined, only by actively embracing it can one avoid being eliminated by the times.

Besides, does Hoshino Shuichi need to control others through a cursed seal?

Why can't it be Infinite Tsukuyomi?

Who can resist?

The Sand Village may cease to exist in the future, but the Fourth Kazekage hopes that the mark of the Sand Village can be forever engraved in the ninja world, becoming a part of the ninja world, and not just a part of history!

Faced with the Fourth Kazekage's request, Hoshino Shuichi naturally couldn't refuse and immediately agreed: "Of course, no problem."

"Wait until the championship is over."

"Hmm, if Temari has enough strength and luck, she might not need my cursed seal."

The Fourth Kazekage paused for a moment, then quickly asked, "What does Lord Shuichi mean?"

The others also looked over; Minato Namikaze hadn't received any prior warning.

Hoshino Hideichi chuckled, "I'm preparing a special reward for the top three... well, the top ten in this competition. Consider it a surprise!"

The Fourth Raikage couldn't help but ask immediately, "What reward?"

Onoki speculated, "Could what Shuichi-sama meant just now be related to chakra?"

Hoshita Hideichi nodded and smiled, "I mentioned the Otsutsuki clan's elixirs before."

"Formed from chakra, it can enhance one's strength after consumption."

"Although it's not as good as the fruit of the divine tree, its effects are still considerable."

Elixir!

Everyone was taken aback.

Mei Terumi frowned inwardly upon hearing this, knowing that Shuichi Hoshishita would deplete his own reserves when refining pills.

However, since Hoshino Shuichi had already made his decision, she didn't dare to object at this point.

At this moment, Hoshino Shizuka raised his hand, and a pill appeared in his palm, attracting everyone's attention.

This is the first time that elixirs have appeared in the ninja world!

Even a golden pill, no bigger than a thumb, contains terrifying power.

In reality, the elixir wasn't that mysterious; it was simply an artificial version of the fruit of the divine tree.

When Hoshino Shuichi used his own chakra to condense a pill and gave it to someone else, it was essentially a weakened version of his condensation of the Divine Tree Fruit.

It could also be said that it was similar to the Sage of Six Paths passing on his chakra to Naruto and Sasuke Uchiha, which could be considered a cheat code.

The only difference is the degree of cheating.

Although this will consume some of your accumulated resources, it's nothing to Shuichi Hoshino.

You can make up for it quickly by spending a few days under the stars.

The most crucial aspect of the pills he creates lies in the quality of the pill's chakra and the information contained within it.

For example, bloodline limits!

For example, advanced chakra nature transformations.

Therefore, Hoshino Shuichi can also customize pills.

……

While Hoshino Shuichi and the others were chatting, the Chunin Championship was still in full swing.

In the incident of the death of the Third Raikage.

Seeing that the Cloud Ninja had left the Land of Earth, Kurotsuchi and the others finally stopped their pursuit.

Hei Tu glanced at his panel and couldn't help but smile; his team was still in first place.

Unfortunately, she is now the only member left in her team.

If she doesn't regroup with others for the next mission, she'll be alone.

The same goes for Deidara.

However, he didn't care at all; in fact, he was quite excited.

For him, the squad actually limited his ability to unleash his explosive artistry.

So, after turning her gaze away, Deidara tightened her golden ponytail and smiled, "Kurotsuchi, I'm leaving!"

Kurotsuchi paused for a moment, then quickly asked, "Brother Deidara, where are you going?"

Deidara smiled brightly: "Of course, we'll go to the main battlefield!"

"I'm going to fight alongside the Third Raikage and show everyone the art of explosion!"

Not only Kurotsuchi, but the other Iwa ninjas were also dumbfounded.

Is this insane?

Before Kurotsuchi and the others could react, Deidara jumped onto his clay bird and waved at Kurotsuchi, shouting, "I'm leaving!"

Seeing Deidara fly away, Kurotsuchi cried out, "Deidara-nii, you're going to die!"

"That way you won't be able to get into the final competition."

Deidara, however, didn't care about rankings and laughed, "The art of explosion is eternal. Rankings are just child's play."

Watching Deidara walk away, Kurotsuchi couldn't help but facepalm: "That guy, he's so reckless."

The others exchanged bewildered glances, and one of the Iwagakure ninjas asked, "What do we do next? Should we go too?"

Ebisu pushed up his sunglasses and said, "Helping the Third Raikage escape is an impossible task unless more than half of the ninja squads unite."

Iruka said, "Obviously that's impossible."

"Furthermore, many teams will choose to side with Iwagakure. As long as they survive the Third Raikage's attack, they can secure the final points."

The others nodded in agreement.

Kurotsuchi wanted to help Deidara, but she knew it would be unwise, so she nodded in agreement, saying, "That's right, we have no reason to choose the Third Raikage!"

the other side.

Deidara, sitting atop a clay flying bird, consumed a soldier's ration pill to replenish his chakra, his eyes shining brightly: "This is absolutely a brilliant idea."

"It'll definitely be a surprise for everyone. Hmm!"

Silently recovering his chakra, Deidara stood up about half an hour later.

Arrived!

As he watched the Third Raikage pierce through the layers of Earth Release defenses of the Iwa ninja like a bolt of lightning, Deidara grew even more excited.

This is the perfect place for him to showcase his explosive art!

"Shuichi is truly great, possessing such a method that allows people to fully utilize their abilities without worrying about other issues."

Deidara sincerely praised them, then controlled the clay bird to fly over the Iwa ninja army.

"Watch out in the air!"

"It's that kid Deidara!"

"This guy... isn't he going to side with the Third Raikage, is he?"

Many Iwa ninja recognized Deidara, after all, Deidara was quite flamboyant in Iwagakure, causing explosions everywhere, which was extremely annoying.

Many of the Iwa ninja here are not purely genjutsu evolutions; many are actors from Iwagakure (Hidden Stone Village).

There are genin and there are jonin.

This includes elite Jonin from Iwagakure, such as Huang Tu and the four from the East.

Clay birds circled in the air as Deidara, whose chakra had been restored, reached into his ninja tool pouch with both hands and began to devour the clay with mouths in his palms.

Soon, he created a giant clay dragon.

Huang Tu's expression changed, and he immediately shouted, "Watch out! Beware of an explosion!"

Seeing the roaring and flying dragon, the Iwa ninja below formed hand seals to create defenses.

Some people used earth-escape techniques to spit out rock bullets that shot towards Deidara in the air.

Deidara did not hover above the Third Raikage, his intentions were very clear, so the Iwa ninja acted very decisively.

Rumble!

The clay dragon started defecating, with various explosive clay particles flying down, creating continuous explosions and billowing smoke and dust.

The Third Raikage, having stopped his attack, looked up at the sky: "The Explosion Release of the Iwa ninja, I didn't expect it to be on my side."

He was also an actor, summoned back from the Pure Land by Hoshino Shuichi.

Not only the Third Raikage, but also the Third Kazekage were summoned back by Hoshino Shuichi to work overtime.

"Times have really changed!"

The Third Raikage sighed and then launched another attack.

Even a junior is launching a fierce attack; as the protagonist of this battle, he can't just stand by and watch, can he?

The Third Raikage continued his attack to draw the attention of the Iwa ninja.

The Iwa ninja army was not to be trifled with either, and the clay dragon was quickly brought down.

Deidara was also forced to increase his altitude during the attack.

However, his even stronger move was already in the works.

They created another clay dragon to attract the attention of the Iwa ninja below, and also to launch a feint attack.

Deidara used the smoke and dust from the explosion to conceal his true form, while Clay Bird swooped down with his clay clone.

The clay dragon was quickly knocked down again, but the continuous explosions provided Deidara with enough cover and cleared out an open space.

Clay Bird landed with Deidara's clay clone.

Immediately afterwards, the clay bird split into various smaller booby traps and scattered in all directions to block the charging Iwa ninja.

"Hahaha!"

"Experience the art of explosion!"

Deidara laughed loudly, his body rapidly expanding until he transformed into a giant clay doll.

"defense!"

Upon seeing this, a Jonin from Iwa immediately shouted.

This is clearly going to be a big move!

Moreover, there was a distance in between, so the Lightning Release technique was too late.

In an instant, earthen walls rose up from the ground.

High in the sky, Deidara excitedly raised one hand and shouted, "Snap!"

In an instant, the clay clone, which had expanded to its maximum size, exploded.

The explosion was indeed powerful, but Huang Tu frowned.

This was less powerful than he had anticipated.

Something is wrong!

"Everyone, stay away from that area!"

The loess soil roared.

However, the shockwave from the explosion mixed countless tiny pieces of explosive clay into the air, which were then inhaled by the Iwa ninja without them noticing.

These people obeyed the order and withdrew.

Ōnoki, who was watching the battle, couldn't help but grit his teeth as he observed Deidara's actions: Traitor!!! (End of Chapter)
