Mizukage's Pokémon Ninja Scroll

Chapter 9 Another Lottery

The two-month medical ninja training passed in the blink of an eye as Jianchuan Ju studied day and night.

If it weren't for reminding everyone to pack their bags after yesterday's training, Jianchuan Ju wouldn't have even realized that two months had already passed.

"Ju, what are you planning to do now that the training is over?"

A genin, not much older than Tachibana Kanagawa, greeted him and asked.

"You ninjas must have returned to your original teams. Tachibana is probably going back to the hospital with us to wait for the village's arrangements, right?"

The young man next to him, dressed in a white shirt and looking neither like a doctor nor a ninja, provided the answer for Tachibana Kanagawa.

"What do you mean by 'we ninjas'? You're a ninja now too. Don't disgrace us Blood Mist Ninjas."

Seeing that the two were about to start arguing, Tachibana Kenkawa immediately spoke up to interrupt the argument.

"I'm planning to go home first, since I haven't been back for two months. After that, I need to go to the village to register as a ninja, and then it depends on the village's arrangements."

Before coming here, Tachibana Kenkawa didn't expect that this training would be a closed-door training camp.

On the first day of the training, everyone was taken to a tiny island near Kirigakure. Apart from the trainees and a few people in charge, there was no one else there.

This time, it was more about the doctors and ninjas learning from each other during the training.

Finally, several senior doctors and Jonin will complete the instruction of the designated courses.

Initially, because of Tachibana Kenkawa's status as a ninja academy student, he was looked down upon by everyone.

However, after a few days of learning, everyone discovered that this 9-year-old boy had made certain achievements in both ninja and medical fields.

Later, to everyone's surprise, the medical ninjutsu they learned in class, "Water Release: Water Flow Ring," was actually developed by this boy who hadn't even graduated from the ninja academy yet.

Of course, Kirigakure does not have a rule that ninjas must hand over the ninjutsu they develop to the village; otherwise, those secret technique clans would definitely rebel.

However, considering that the Water Flow Ring wasn't a particularly advanced ninjutsu, after discussing it with Saigyouji Keiko, Tachibana decided to teach it to the village as a basic ninjutsu for medical ninjas to learn, as a stepping stone for himself.

After that, Tachibana Kanakawa suddenly became popular throughout the entire island.

Those who come to participate in the medical ninja training, whether ninjas or doctors, are more or less different from the cold atmosphere of Kirigakure.

There was no competition in this training program; instead, we learned from each other, so everyone got along quite well over the two months.

"I'm leaving now, I can't talk to you anymore!"

As soon as the small boat carrying the students back to Hong Kong docked, Jianchuan Ju hurriedly picked up Lanzai and ran home.

"This kid, is it really necessary to be in such a hurry to get home?"

Jianchuan Ju was naturally anxious, as she still had 4120 gold coins and was waiting to go home and do two 10-pulls.

Previously, because the training on the island was closed, Tachibana Kanagawa only tried to pull once when she had saved up enough for a ten-pull shortly after arriving on the island.

While the general prize pool contains many good items, it also contains quite a few disappointing items and skills.

If you draw something with no clear meaning, like "wagging its tail" or "clapping its hands," you'll probably feel like you're going to vomit blood.

Since her strength was relatively weak at the moment, the improvement from the water attribute prize pool was more stable, so Jianchuan Ju decisively headed for the water attribute prize pool.

After the lottery draw, Tachibana Kenkawa realized that it was hard to explain why he suddenly had a bunch of random things on him when he hadn't gone anywhere.

In the end, I only claimed one purple item, the "Magic Candy," and ate it. I didn't rush to claim the other prizes I won, since once a prize is materialized, it can't be put back.

If all the prizes haven't been claimed, then the draw can't continue.

Fortunately, the daily tasks and achievements are not affected. In fact, the system even provides tasks that can be easily completed even on the island, such as "cutting down five trees", "catching a pound of fish", training, and studying.

Jianchuan Ju watched in agony as her gold coins increased, but she couldn't immediately convert them into strength.

Upon entering the house, Tachibana Kenkawa took two deep breaths to calm herself down.

"Claim the prizes you haven't taken out yet."

Aside from the [Miracle Candy] Jianchuan Orange, which had already been taken out and eaten, the other nine items are:

[Sonic Bomb] (Blue item: When thrown to the ground, it makes a loud noise, interfering with enemies and dealing minor sonic damage.)

[Large Pearl] [Rattata's Front Teeth] [Six-Tailed Fox's Fur] [Blue Mail] [Ball of Yarn] [Orange Teacup] [Oil] *2

After receiving the prize, Jianchuan Ju only glanced at it before setting it aside, intending to sort it out after completing the two ten-pull draws later.

After all, he had looked at these items to be collected countless times when he was bored on the island.

After rubbing her hands together and silently praying, Tachibana Kanakawa reopened the Water attribute up banner.

Click for 20 consecutive draws!

The lottery light orb that we've seen three times before has now become two orbs jumping around at the same time, but this time the purple light is noticeably weaker than the one that exploded so much before.

Three streams of light of different colors shot out and transformed into 20 prizes, which were presented one by one:

【Technique Learning Item: Water Release: Flying Sailor Blade】(Purple Item: Water Release Ninjutsu. After performing the hand seals, a Sailor Blade is created and launched at extremely high speed to attack the enemy. Using this technique in a water environment can save chakra consumption.)

【Technique Learning Device: Water Release: Water Jet】(Purple Item: Water Release Ninjutsu. After performing the hand seals, a powerful jet of water gathers under the user's feet, allowing the user to move at high speed. Using this technique in a watery environment can conserve chakra.)

[Power Ankle Bracers] (Blue item: Wearing these will reduce your own speed, but will increase speed training efficiency.)

[Antidote] (Blue item: Removes most harmful toxins upon consumption.)

White Sea Lion's Whiskers, Goldfish's Unicorn Horn, Insecticide Herb, Bamboo Shoots, Sweet Honey, Wood*2, Energy Cubes*3, Tree Berries*6

After taking out all the items, Jianchuan Ju's happy eyes narrowed into slits.

I lifted up the still somewhat bewildered Blueie, grabbed its little hand without saying a word, and gave it a high five.

"Haha, now I have attack, movement, and healing—call me the all-around warrior!"

"And Blue Boy, I actually learned your signature skill before you did! How about that? Jealous, aren't you!"

"┑(￣Д￣)┍Quack~"

Seeing the crazy Jianchuan Ju, the little frog had no choice but to croak in agreement.

After calming down for a while, Tachibana Kenkawa decided to first learn the two ninjutsu scrolls.

Although the system only teaches the basic usage of the ninjutsu, and you still need to practice more on your own, it is already much easier than for ordinary people to learn ninjutsu, and you will have a general understanding of the ninjutsu you draw.

The remaining item, the [Strength Ankle Braces], is a decent training tool. It's somewhat similar to the leg weights that Li uses, and although it's a blue item, it should still have a good training effect.

Jianchuan Ju directly tied the prop to her ankle to try it out.

The speed will indeed decrease, but it won't affect daily life. Since that's the case, Jianchuan Ju plans to wear this ankle brace all the time. You can never have too much of anything that helps improve your strength.

"It's a pity. I'm currently a standard Water Release ninja; my combat power will drop rapidly if I leave environments with water."

"With my current chakra reserves, I probably won't be able to unleash these ninjutsu more than a few times if I'm not near water."

Although he had already eaten the "miracle candy" twice, according to Tachibana Kanagawa's own perception, the chakra in his body might not have reached the level of an ordinary Chunin.

'As expected, lacking both special physical attributes and being too young, his chakra reserves will inevitably be a weakness.'

"I'd really appreciate learning another water-generating ninjutsu. The Great Explosive Water Wave is probably too extravagant with my current chakra reserves. I think I could find an opportunity to learn Water Shock Wave or Water Chaos Wave."

Tachibana Kanagawa regretted not exchanging the Water Release: Water Flow Ring for a corresponding ninjutsu when he handed it over.

Previously, I felt that the C-rank ninjutsu given by the village was a bit lacking. Water-type ninjutsu could be obtained through a lottery, and medical ninjutsu could be taught to me by Saigyouji Keiko. In the end, I simply exchanged it for monetary compensation.

Unexpectedly, he now happens to be just one ninjutsu away from creating water.

"The problem is I don't have a teacher right now, and I won't even become a ninja until tomorrow. I don't even have a way to learn ninjutsu."

As Jianchuan Ju packed up the other things, she thought to herself.

"However, despite the various shortcomings, the nearly two-month-long wait did not disappoint me."
