Ninja Pot Shadow

Medicine simply cannot explain this phenomenon, and Tsunade can only conclude that her grandfather may have been going through some kind of strange puberty...

"Alright, since you're here, I'll definitely teach you a thing or two... Did you bring any money? How about we talk over a drink?"

Shizune objected repeatedly, so Tsunade gave up the idea of ​​taking her student out for a drinking party as soon as they met.

She frowned and thought for a moment: "Since you've become my disciple, I can't just leave you with nothing. Here's a little chakra usage technique; I wonder if you'd like to learn it?"

Seeing that she was being perfunctory, and fearing that Ino would look down on this so-called "little trick," Shizune quietly reminded Ino: "It is a ninjutsu that Lady Tsunade improved after thinking about it for more than ten days."

A ninjutsu specially modified for her? Ino was a little surprised. This master in front of her seemed carefree, but he was actually quite meticulous.

She nodded quickly: "I want to learn, I want to learn."

Tsunade pointed to the purple diamond-shaped mark on her forehead: "This is my Yin Seal, which is a medical sealing technique. It automatically stores the chakra in my body. When I need to use it, I can release it to obtain a large amount of chakra. Because of the existence of the Yin Seal, I have also developed the Hundred Healings Technique, which allows the body to automatically heal injuries. Ino, do you want to learn it?"

"Yes, I want to learn! Teacher, please teach me!"

Tsunade picked up the teacup beside her, took a slow sip, and savored it: "You can't learn this technique."

Ino: "..."

Tsunade explained, "Because of the Hundred Healings Technique, I store Yang Release chakra. This type of chakra has extremely strong life-restoring abilities. No matter how severe the injury, as long as I don't die on the spot, it can be healed. How much Yang Release chakra do you think you can store?"

Ino was dumbfounded; this was a bit difficult.

Her Yang Release level is low, so the amount of Yang Release chakra she generates by incorporating Yang Release nature transformation into chakra is naturally small, and its purity is also insufficient. This is a matter of her physical constitution...

Tsunade said smugly, "Because of your physique, I slightly modified the Yin Seal. The Yin Seal can store Yang Release chakra, but I specially created a Yang Seal that can store Yin Release chakra. Many of your Yamanaka clan's secret techniques require Yin Release chakra, right?"

Ino was stunned at first, then overjoyed!

The Mind Confusion Technique requires too much and too pure Yin-attribute chakra, without even a trace of impurity. She can only purify the Yin-attribute chakra by forming numerous hand seals, like washing rice. If there were a Yang seal now, it would be a great help.

Chapter 148 Yang Seal

Ino rushed over and hugged Tsunade tightly: "Sensei, thank you, thank you so much! This technique is so important to me! Hurry, teach me now!"

Tsunade's gaze darted around, she licked her lips with her red tongue, and changed the subject: "So, what about the bill for today's drinks?"

Ino, who had held out for a long time, finally broke down.

She reluctantly paid the bill for the drinks, and the three of them went to the residence that Jirocho had provided for Tsunade. It was only then that Ino saw this notorious yakuza boss from the Land of Tea. Morino Date was very respectful to him, calling him "boss" repeatedly.

This man, in his fifties, had a kind face and was very polite, like a well-read and cultured person.

Whether she is a cultured person or not is something Ino doesn't care about, and it's none of her business.

The master and disciple practiced the Yang Seal behind closed doors.

Tsunade only improved her Yin Seal; she didn't know what would happen or what problems she would encounter during practice. Everything was unknown.

"Do you know sealing techniques? Yes? That makes things easier. I'll explain the sealing steps of the Yang Seal to you in detail."

The first lesson officially began.

Tsunade quickly recognized Ino's exceptional talent for ninjutsu. Both the Yin and Yang seals were S-rank in terms of learning difficulty. Tsunade's original plan was to spend a month learning the sealing technique, another month constructing the sealing formula, and the last month filling it with chakra to complete the entire sealing technique.

Ino's progress amazed her. She already knew sealing techniques, so she skipped this step. Constructing the Yang Seal, a sealing technique that combines storage and purification, took some time, but it was completed within three days. The final process of injecting chakra was even smoother.

Ino has more chakra than Tsunade, and she can easily fill the original sealing formula with just a little bit of it.

Tsunade covered her face, her teeth aching slightly. This disciple was a genius in every aspect except for his lack of talent in medical ninjutsu. He was the kind of genius who was at the top of the ninja world, so talented that she was jealous.

A day later, Tsunade signaled her to take off her outer garment, and the two of them worked together to perform the ritual, completing the formal Yang Sealing Technique.

Ino was a little embarrassed because the location of the Yang Seal was quite peculiar.

I originally thought it was sealed on her forehead like Tsunade's, but it turns out it wasn't at all.

At this moment, a hexagonal seal mark appeared slightly above her navel.

Tsunade's Yin Seal is purple, and her Yang Seal is silver.

Yin alone cannot grow, and Yang alone cannot produce.

This statement also applies to Yang Dun and Yin Dun.

Because of the balance of Yin and Yang, this Yang seal is filled with Yin attribute chakra, so it must be exposed to sunlight frequently in order for the sealing technique to function independently and not to affect Ino's physical and mental health due to its excessive Yin nature.

In other words, in order to let her belly get more sun exposure, she will have to wear crop tops from now on.

After going around in circles, it seems she has returned to the same path Ino took, showing off her abs.

"Do I have to wear this? It's so revealing, and my stomach area looks empty, like it doesn't offer much protection?" Ino felt a little awkward.

Her current attire is similar to that of the sixteen-year-old Ino. Tsunade has cut a slit in the sleeve and another in the abdomen of her purple coat, exposing her arms, collarbone, and abdomen. Half of the fabric in her clothes has been removed...

Tsunade scoffed at the issue of defense she raised, and while drinking, she showed off her fair and delicate fist.

"If I punch you, can you defend yourself?"

Without a doubt, Tsunade's strength, speed, and other attributes completely overwhelmed her at this moment.

Ino shook her head: "It can't be defended against, but this is a different matter..."

Tsunade didn't give her a chance to argue: "Don't try to deny it. Whether you're dressed or not, you can't stop me from punching you. So you'll wear whatever I tell you to wear!"

Ino looked at Shizune and her pet pig Tonton with a strange expression. Is that how it works? It sounds like a fallacy!

The senior sister with long white legs chuckled twice and shook her head slightly, meaning you should never try to reason with Lady Tsunade, she just doesn't listen to reason!

After sealing Yang, Tsunade also taught Ino her Super Strength Fist and Painful Heaven Kick. These taijutsu techniques, which involve precise control of chakra, were slow for Ino to learn because she had too much chakra! It was difficult to control it precisely, so she could only practice repeatedly.

Ino began to study under Tsunade.

Aside from studying, the rest of his time was occupied by activities such as drinking, gambling, eating gourmet food, running away, shopping, and soaking in hot springs.

Tsunade has traveled the world for so many years that many shop owners know her. They know she doesn't have much money, but every few days a sycophant named Jiraiya will come to pay. The shop owners aren't worried about not being able to pay. After all, whatever you eat and drink is recorded in the books, and someone will come to pay in a few days.

After two days of intensive training, Ino relaxed, following Tsunade's advice to balance work and rest.

Cultivation × Vacation √

She wasn't even sure what she was doing there. At first, she was quite anxious and felt guilty. She wondered if it was appropriate for Sasuke, Naruto, and Shikamaru to be training so hard while she was drinking and shopping. But after getting used to this lifestyle, she thought, "Hey? This is actually quite fun!"

Inoichi would occasionally send her messages via hawk. She heard that Naruto was learning summoning techniques from Jiraiya, Kakashi had left the village to search for Danzo, Sasuke was training alone but was much stronger than in the original timeline and was gradually perfecting his Chidori, and Shikamaru and the others had also embarked on their own paths.

With seven days to go before the official Chunin Exams, Ino is currently enjoying a hot spring with Tsunade...

Jingyin looks mature, but she also has a childlike side. When there are no outsiders around, she is very relaxed. At this moment, she put a swimming ring on the little pig Tun Tun, and the two of them played happily in the water.

Tsunade was initially dozing off, and in a daze, she suddenly asked Ino, seemingly unintentionally, "Do you know Shizune's uncle?"

Shizune's uncle? Ino paused for a moment before replying, "Is it Jonin Kato Dan? I've heard Uncle Choza mention him; it seems he used to be Jonin Kato Dan's subordinate."

Tsunade pondered for a moment: "Akimichi Choza? Hmm, they're not just superior and subordinate, they're also very good friends."

Ino smiled politely.

These days, regardless of gender, everyone likes to be friends with the Akimichi family.

Even the ugliest person will feel handsome and dashing when compared to a fat person by their side. Women will also feel incredibly beautiful.

The Akimichi family is arguably the best-friends family in the ninja world. People of all ages and genders enjoy being friends with them. Ino is like that, and it seems that Kato Dan feels the same way...

Chapter 149 Researching the Art of Spirit Transformation

Tsunade didn't want to talk too much about herself, and seeing that Ino knew about Kato Dan, she simply glossed over the man's life story.

“He…” Tsunade didn’t even want to mention his name, so she used “he” to refer to him.

"He possesses a secret technique, which is now in my possession. Would you like to learn it?"

Is it the Spirit Transformation Technique? Ino was very interested in this technique. The Spirit Transformation Technique and the Mind Transfer series of secret techniques have many similarities. Spirit Transformation, as the name suggests, is definitely a technique that turns oneself into a spirit. Not only will it be convenient to cause trouble, but its destructive power will also be considerable.

Kato Dan's death was most likely due to his high profile attracting unwanted attention; someone secretly plotted against him. He should be careful and avoid being too conspicuous. This technique is still quite safe.

If given the opportunity, she would definitely want to learn.

"Yes, teacher, I want to learn."

Tsunade glanced at her without showing any emotion. She had originally intended to take this technique to her grave, but this disciple's talent in ninjutsu, chakra, and Yin Release level were all too suitable for the Spirit Transformation Technique.

Surely her lover wouldn't want his technique to be lost? Tsunade sighed inwardly.

"Really want to learn?"

"Uh-huh."

"Do you really want to learn?"

Ino's expression was strange: "...Yes, I want to learn."

Tsunade took a sip of her drink and said, "Unfortunately, you can't learn it yet."

Ino nearly spat out a mouthful of blood. What the hell are you talking to me about if you can't learn it?!

Even though she was drinking, Tsunade became very depressed when she talked about this past event.

"After he... passed away, I was sorting through his belongings. This secret technique only contained the chakra circulation and hand seals in the scroll. The incantation and the secret medicine were lost with his death."

Ino nodded, indicating her understanding. That's how the secret technique works. If it weren't for keeping her promise to teach her the Steam Explosion Technique, the Second Mizukage certainly wouldn't have explained all the secrets of the Water Transformation Technique.

He had to explain, because if Ino didn't, she definitely wouldn't be able to learn the Steam Explosion Technique; the connection between the two techniques is too strong.

Now, with Kato Dan's death, much of the crucial information about his spiritification technique has been lost.

Tsunade suddenly became bold: "Whether it's ninjutsu or secret techniques, they were all created by humans in the beginning. If our predecessors could do it, then we, their successors, can certainly do it too. Ino, do you have confidence?"

What confidence do I have?! Ino was so confused by Tsunade's question that she strongly suspected her big-breasted master was drunk.

The pet pig Tun Tun, standing nearby, nudged her twice and made "puyu puyu" sounds, as if to say, "Hurry up and give me your opinion!"

Ino was speechless. "Me, a transmigrator? Do you think I need a pig like you to teach me how to do things?"

She imitated Might Guy and his apprentice Little Lee, shouting with boundless enthusiasm, "I have confidence!"

“Alright, then I’ll… um? Actually, we can skip some steps. How about this, you use the Yamanaka family’s secret technique on me, the Mind Transfer Technique, right? Is that the name? Come on, use it on me once, take over my body, and I’ll take the opportunity to study whether I can improve the Spirit Transformation Technique based on your foundation.”

Shizune and Tonton, who had been playing around nearby, also quieted down. The two of them, one human and one pig, focused intently on how Ino would "face" Tsunade head-on.

Is it really appropriate for us to be discussing such a raunchy topic while soaking in a hot spring? Ino seemed hesitant. Wouldn't it be better if everyone got dressed, found a quiet room, and then discussed spiritualization?

Tsunade thought it was a good fit, so Ino had no choice but to go along with her.
