Naruto: The Progenitor of Demons Starting from Kirigakure

Chapter 85 Customization Costs Extra

"That's right." Bai Lian confirmed Jie Luo's guess and said, "There is also such a mineral in the village, called..." Bai Lian looked at Cai Zang.

With narrowed eyes, Cai Zang said, "Heavy metal is not as precious as chakra metal; it's a common mineral on the market."

"Let's add some materials and melt this blunt sword into an incredibly heavy club," Jieluo said. "Then we can use this to select a ninja in the village who has superhuman strength and can lift this thing."

Bai Lian looked at Jie Luo and said, "It's not impossible, so what's your plan?"

Jie Luo raised his hand and threw it. Instantly, with a hissing sound, a small hole appeared in the desk.

The three of them narrowed their eyes; something unseen had been inserted there.

"Old man, take a look at this knife. It looks somewhat like a sewing needle." Jie Luo laughed. "Be careful when you touch it, it's very sharp. By the way, although it's not chakra metal, it can conduct chakra."

Upon hearing this, the old man's eyes lit up, and even the eye that was on guard duty turned back to him.

Whether a weapon can conduct chakra is crucial; its destructive power will increase exponentially.

Byakuren tentatively reached out, her body covered in chakra to protect herself from being cut by the blade. As she approached, she sensed her chakra being cut open and the cold, sharp feeling of the blade faintly seeped through her skin, causing her to frown slightly.

So sharp...

It is far sharper than a sewing needle. A needle is only lethal at its tip; its cutting ability comes not from the blade itself, but from the steel wire inside.

This sharpness is like the feel of steel wire, but finer, like a velvet.

Jie Luo lowered her eyes. The cutting ability is related to the contact surface. The smaller and sharper the contact surface, the stronger the cutting ability. Even a soft hair can pierce into the flesh. The needle-shaped blade is densely covered with fine hairs, which, as fine blades, increase the cutting and killing ability of the blade. Being scratched by this thing will immediately tear off a layer of skin.

Byakuren fumbled and grasped the sword hilt. As chakra was injected, a long, jet-black needle appeared before everyone's eyes.

"This is..." Almost exactly like a sewing needle, the hilt of the sword has a hidden mechanism for releasing silk threads, the length of which is controlled by chakra. Byakuren looked at Yura.

"Made exclusively by me, a one-of-a-kind chakra blade that is not made of chakra metal." Jieluo smiled faintly.

"In bulk?" Bai Lian asked.

"Of course," Jieluo nodded.

Bai Lian pondered for a moment, then asked, "For sale?"

There was no requirement to share it, but Jieluo couldn't remain silent, saying, "If the village needs it, I can provide a batch to the body disposal team free of charge."

The Hidden Mist Special Assassination Squad, modeled after the Hidden Leaf Village's Anbu, is also known as the Corpse Disposal Squad, and it doesn't have many members.

"However, this is only a limited-edition ninja sword," Yura said. "Custom orders will cost extra."

"That's enough," Bai Lian nodded and said, "I hope it won't be captured and reused or deciphered by outsiders."

Without further ado, Jie Luo snapped his fingers, and right before the three of them, the sewing needle turned into ashes and vanished. As the chakra that had been injected into it dissipated, the ashes disappeared from their sight.

Bai Lian said, "I will give you a license to sell ninja tools. You can choose a shop in the village."

"Give it to me?" Jieluo asked.

"Give me the money," Byakuren said irritably. "I hope that as soon as possible, all the Kirigakure ninjas can be equipped with this type of ninja sword." If this level of quality ninja swords is mass-produced, the strategic value of Yura will be very important, as it can significantly elevate the overall strength of the Kirigakure ninjas by a level.

"I thought you were a generous old man," Jieluo laughed.

"You'll make plenty of money from this kind of business in the future," Bai Lian said. "Don't worry about these pittances."

"How could that be? Kirigakure earns money and spends it all. I'm not taking a single penny home anyway," Jieluo said. "Oh, right, I don't have a home anymore."

The old man with the white lotus looked at the smiling Jie Luo and said, "Jie Luo, this is your home!"

"Can they be the same? I can use my things freely," Jieluo said with a smile.

Bai Lian looked at Jie Luo and said, "That day will come."

Upon hearing this, Huan Yue and Cai Cang's expressions turned serious. Had they already established trust with the old man so quickly?

"The old man is generous," Jie Luo said with a slight smile.

"Tell me about the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist. Are you planning to use one of these special ninja swords?" Byakuren asked.

Jieluo nodded and said, "The selection of the Seven Ninja is a major event for the village, but seven people are still too few. They will be divided into seven teams, each directly commanded by a Shadow..."

"Should we assign them manpower?" Bai Lian interrupted.

"Only a weak Kage would fear the strength of his subordinates, lest they threaten his position." Jieluo glanced at Caizo, the Seven Ninja, whom he had formed during his reign, and said, "The village's Kage is not just a symbol, but should be the strongest ninja. Moreover, seven people can check and balance each other. In the future, the Kage of the village will emerge from these seven captains. This is the elite strategy in the Blood Mist."

Once Yura becomes the Mizukage, that's the end; there will never be a third Mizukage.

Moreover, it's not very interesting to have lower-ranking ninjas fight each other; it's much more interesting to watch the struggles between the higher-ups.

"I understand..." Leaning back, Bai Lian pondered for a moment, puffing on her pipe, then looked at Jie Luo and asked, "The seven teams should each have different roles, right?"

"Konoha's special assassination unit, the White Lotus Elder, can't surpass its opponent by merely imitating it," said Yura. "Incorporate the Anbu into the Seventh Division, with a captain in charge. By the way, who is the head of the Anbu?"

Bai Lian didn't believe that Jie Luo hadn't discovered this level of intelligence within the past month, but she still went along with it and said, "Cai Zang..."

"It's me." Saizo looked at Yura, his eyes narrowed, and smiled kindly. "Is there anything I can do for you, Lady Oni?"

"Since you're a sneaky, assassinating rat, a decapitation sword would suit you well," Jieluo said. "So, are you interested in becoming one of the original Seven Ninja Swordsmen? Squint."

Cai Zang looked at Bai Lian.

Just now, Jieluo made it very clear that becoming one of the Seven Ninja is the ladder to becoming a Shadow.

He remained silent, not wanting to show himself at this moment. Both opponents were too strong, and he was not confident of victory.

Bai Lian was smoking...

After a moment, Cai Zang said, "I'll just continue to be Lord Bai Lian's deputy. Let's give the position of the Seven Heroes to someone more capable."

Let's just steadily build up our experience like this.

Huan Yue didn't care what Cai Zang thought; they were old friends of many years. However, she became interested in the seven-man captain that Jie Luo had mentioned.

"Cai Zang, you're always so timid and hesitant; your personality is a bit weak," Bai Lian said. "Then you will become the wielder of the Executioner's Blade and take charge of the Dark Division."

Cai Cang's eyes narrowed slightly.
