Chapter 66 Initial Unveiling of Bloodline Limit
Upon seeing Genma forming a hand seal, Troy immediately took out his shuriken and threw it, attempting to interrupt Genma's hand seal.
However, the Dark Travel Technique, which Xuanma has only recently mastered, only requires one seal.
The technique was completed, and Xuanma's figure disappeared. Immediately afterwards, the sword in his hand was firmly embedded in the tree branch.
"Damn it, it's an illusion again!"
Troy leaned against the tree trunk, listening to the sounds around him as he drew the remaining shuriken from his body.
The continuous flow of blood caused his strength to rapidly deplete.
Despite the excruciating pain engulfing his entire body, the illusion that had blinded him could not be dispelled.
"If I raise my hand to form a hand seal, he will definitely take the opportunity to attack."
Troy adjusted his breathing.
The enemy is not only skilled in lightning techniques, but also proficient in illusion techniques, making him a very troublesome opponent.
"The moment he makes a move will be the moment I retaliate."
"Although I have lost my sight, I can still hear."
Troy calmed down, even though he knew he would still lose if the enemy dragged things out.
But at that moment, he couldn't think of any other way.
However, teleportation is silent.
By the time Troy realized what was happening, his neck had already been sliced open by a cold blade.
"Forehead----·----"
Troy instinctively covered his neck, but blood still flowed from between his fingers.
Bang!
Troy fell, and his blood quickly stained the ground.
Xuanma swung his sword, then sheathed it.
He heard the sound, turned around, and saw his teacher, Hatake Sakumo, leaping towards him.
"Resolved?"
Sakumo Hatake glanced at it.
Genma nodded, then pointed to Troy on the ground: "This guy has mastered the bloodline limit Magnet Release."
Sakumo Hatake exclaimed in surprise, "A bloodline limit ninja!"
Xuanma took out the sealed scroll: "Take the corpse back; it should still have some value."
Troy wasn't quite dead yet. Genma first used a chakra scalpel to sever his heart meridian, ending his suffering, and then healed the wound on his neck before sealing him into the scroll.
decent!
Hatake Sakumo looked on and couldn't help but chuckle. There were always some things about this disciple that were hard to understand.
After getting ready, the two immediately set off to catch up with Shizune and the others.
After nightfall, the reunited team stopped to rest at the border of the Land of Hot Springs.
There was no campfire in the woods by the river; everyone simply rested against the tree trunks in the darkness.
Because a clone of Genma and the others transformed into an owl to monitor the rear, they did not need to take turns using sensory ninjutsu to detect any potential pursuers.
With his eyes closed, Genma did not rest. He opened the [Settings] and found that the settings value had reached 18 points.
Genma was secretly delighted when he flipped to the bottom of the journal.
It turns out that Hanzo officially announced to the outside world that he had occupied the Land of Rivers.
Moreover, this was not a one-sided occupation, but rather a consensus reached with the Daimyo of the Land of Rivers, forming a relationship similar to that between Konoha and the Daimyo's residence in the Land of Fire.
At the same time, the alliance between Amegakure and Konoha was announced to the ninja world.
This is a clear signal of involvement in the war!
Here, the income is set at 10 points.
The killing of Troy contributed 2 points to the character's attributes; the rest were added up randomly.
With the 18-point setting in hand, Genma straightened his back and modified the Substitute Technique once again.
Substitute Technique 2.0: Create a substitute talisman/substitute puppet in advance. Once you are attacked, it can be activated automatically to take the fatal damage in your place (it can also be activated automatically to take any attack in your place).
"Um?"
Xuanma secretly raised an eyebrow.
Still failed at 18 PM.
Okay, okay, it's even more expensive than Perfect Sage Mode!
Xuanma, on the contrary, became excited and looking forward to it.
"I'll think about it carefully when I get back to the village."
After turning off the "Settings" app, Genma did not resort to modifying the settings.
He opened his eyes and saw the female ninja leaning against the tree opposite him, looking up at the starry sky through the gaps in the leaves.
Xuanma also looked up. The weather was indeed nice tonight. There were no clouds in the sky, and the stars filled the sky. Even in the woods, you could see a few stars.
Genma looked away and then at the female ninja opposite him, then thought of Fennel.
The two seem to have some similarities in temperament.
Seemingly sensing Genma's gaze, the female ninja lowered her head, and their eyes met.
Xuanma wasn't embarrassed; he looked at Xuanma calmly and nodded slightly.
The female ninja smiled slightly, then said in a low voice, "Thank you, you've really gone to a lot of trouble this time."
Genma was slightly surprised, but then replied gently, "You're welcome. It's my duty, and besides, you're one of our companions."
The female ninja smiled gently and kindly: "Thank you, my name is Yakushi Nonou."
Xuanma was surprised that the other party would introduce himself, which seemed to be against the rules.
But it really was that woman!
"Hello, I am Yu Feng Xuan Ma!"
Xuanma also gave his name.
Then both of them fell silent and did not speak again.
at the same time.
On the battlefield of the Land of the Moon, several Cloud Ninjas examined the traces of the battlefield with grim expressions.
"It seems Troy has also died in battle, and the enemy even took his body away—how despicable!"
"Lord Tsuchidai, hurry and give chase!"
"Judging by the time, these guys have been gone for quite a while. They've probably already entered the Land of Hot Water. If we let them enter the Land of Fire, they might not have another chance!"
Listening to his subordinates' words, Tu Tai frowned and nodded: "Pursue!"
Figures streaked through the air, pursuing them through the night.
However, Tsuchikage, as the captain, knew very well that since even Troy had been killed by this enemy, he must be an extremely powerful figure.
Moreover, with such a long time having passed, even if they pursued them overnight, it would probably be too late.
Xuanma and the others did not rest for a whole night.
They set off again just three hours later.
As before, Shizune and the other two left first, while Genma and Hatake Sakumo would set off half an hour later.
Furthermore, Genma, with his abundant chakra, would leave behind a clone that would transform into a bird to continue monitoring.
If there are pursuers, the clone will spot them first, allowing Genma and Sakumo Hatake to prepare in advance.
And since they are still half an hour away from Shizune and the others, even if they encounter a strong enemy, they can ensure Shizune and the others' safety to the greatest extent possible and complete the mission as much as possible!
One night passed.
At the border of the Land of Fire, Genma stood under a large tree, looking out at the vast grassland stretching before him: "We're here!"
One by one, Cloud Ninjas appeared in sight.
Sakumo Hatake, standing nearby, narrowed his eyes: "That person is—be careful, he's a Kumogakure Lava Release Kekkei Genkai ninja!"
Meltfall?
Xuanma thought for a moment and remembered.
That guy who blows up balloons—no, rubber balls.
Its defense is very strong; it can even withstand the Third Raikage's thrust for a period of time.
In other words, it is now very difficult for him to break through its defenses.
A hundred meters away, the Yunren stopped.
Tsuchikage also recognized Konoha's White Fang, and his expression changed slightly: "It's Konoha's White Fang, no wonder Troy would—"
The other Cloud Ninja were also taken aback.
Tutai swept his gaze across the area, extending his senses: "I didn't sense anyone else. It seems the target has already been sent into the Land of Fire ahead of time."
"Let's retreat!"
Other Cloud Ninja, still unwilling to give up, spoke up: "Captain, even if it's Konoha's White Fang, we have the advantage in numbers."
Tu Tai shook his head: "Such a powerful figure cannot be easily overpowered by people like us."
"And don't underestimate the person next to him."
"His chakra is enormous!"
Several people were startled.
While having a large amount of chakra doesn't necessarily mean being strong, could someone who can hold off the enemy alongside Konoha's White Fang be weak?
"withdraw!"
The earthen platform issued the order.
The group of Cloud Ninja immediately retreated.
Xuanma frowned. "I'm all ready for a big battle, and you're leaving already?"
Sakumo Hatake, standing nearby, said, "Genma, keep an eye on them!"
Xuanma nodded and immediately created a clone that transformed into a falcon, soaring into the sky and staring at the Cloud Ninja.
After confirming that these people had left, Genma and Hatake Sakumo went to chase after Shizune and the others.
Around noon.
Xuanma and the others stopped to rest by a river.
While chewing on a soldier's ration pill, Genma asked Sakumo Hatake beside him, "Teacher, have you ever thought about training your bloodline limit?"
This statement attracted everyone's attention.
Sakumo Hatake smiled slightly: "Of course I've tried, but it was too difficult."
There are no academic underachievers here, so naturally no one would ask the question, "How can a bloodline limit be trained on its own?"
Shizune said, "To master a bloodline limit, one must use two nature transformations simultaneously, which already requires a high level of chakra control."
"Then, it becomes even more difficult to fuse the two changes in properties, since different changes in properties are either mutually antagonistic or mutually reinforcing, but to fuse them—"
Shizune shook her head as she spoke: "There's absolutely no way of knowing how to fuse them."
Hatake Sakumo nodded: "Indeed, this is the most difficult because there is no direction and no reference. It is more than 10 times more difficult than developing a new ninjutsu."
Yamashiro Aoba chewed the soldier's ration pill in her mouth and then said, "So, it's best not to think too much about it."
"but----"
He glanced at his eccentric companion: "Xuanma is not included in this category."
The Pharmacist Nono, who had been listening silently, looked at Genma Mikaze with curiosity.
Genma stroked his chin thoughtfully and said, "Fusing a bloodline limit is certainly difficult, but if we change our perspective, it might not be so hard to find the mechanism."
Shizune blinked: "Genma, do you already have an idea?"
Genma didn't answer immediately, but instead asked his teacher, Hatake Sakumo, "Teacher, what kind of technique did that Cloud Village Lava Release Kekkei Genkai ninja we encountered before use?"
Sakumo Hatake said, "He can use chakra to create rubber, which has strong elasticity, very high defense, and is insulating, making it difficult for ordinary lightning release to penetrate."
Genma feigned sudden realization: "Oh, it's rubber!"
At this moment, Yakushi Nonou, who had been silent all along, said, "The Lava Release Kekkei Genkai of Kumogakure is formed by the fusion of fire and earth nature transformations."
Everyone looked at Yakushi Nonou in surprise.
Yakushi Nonou simply smiled slightly and did not speak again.
Xuanma clapped his hands: "Very good, let's analyze it then."
"Shizune, do you remember what I told you about property changes?"
Shizune nodded, then pondered, "Speaking of which, bloodline limit is actually a kind of nature change, a new nature change formed by the fusion of two nature changes."
"If we disregard the two nature changes that need to be fused and only look at the new nature change of the bloodline limit, the Lava Release I just mentioned imitates the properties of rubber."
Xuanma nodded and took the paper, continuing, "What are the properties of rubber? It's highly elastic, easily deformed but also easily recovers without breaking, and it's very wear-resistant. These are fairly common characteristics."
"Clearly, these properties cannot be possessed by any one of the properties of fire, earth, wind, water, or thunder."
Following her train of thought, Shizune pondered, "From a material perspective, rubber is primarily a solid substance, so it requires the use of Earth Release: a property transformation technique?"
Yamashiro Aoba quickly said, "Wait a minute, why is solid matter considered Earth Release?"
Shizune quickly explained, "Because the nature of Earth Release corresponds to solid matter."
Yamashiro Aoba, drawing inferences from this, asked, "So Water Release is liquid, and Wind Release is—gaseous? Then what about Fire Release and Lightning Release?"
Genma smiled and said, "I'll explain that later."
"Let's go back to melt-down rubber."
"Given that it's a fusion of Earth Release and Fire Release, what would be a reasonable mechanism?"
"Firstly, the Earth Release technique we commonly use transforms into a hard nature. Can we understand that the Fire Release technique's function is to melt hardness, making it soft, elastic, and malleable?"
"In fact, rubber can become a fluid at higher temperatures."
Yamashiro Aoba scratched his head: "It sounds reasonable, but it's still a bit hard to understand."
Shizune tugged at Genma's arm and said, "Genma, it seems easier to understand if we use Yin-Yang Release to explain the creation of all things."
Genma's eyes lit up, he gave Shizune a thumbs up, and then said to Hatake Sakumo, "Sensei, you can use Earth Release without relying on the earth, right?"
Sakumo Hatake nodded: "You can directly use chakra to form soil, but this consumes more chakra. It's usually used as an earth-release technique when it's inconvenient to inject chakra into the earth, so it's rarely used."
Xuanma got up and quickly chopped off a piece of wood.
It's the kind of substitution technique used.
Under everyone's watchful eyes, Genma used a simple transformation technique to turn the wood into a rubber stick.
He simply tossed it to Yamashiro Aoba.
Yamashiro Aoba caught it, somewhat puzzled: "Genma, what does this mean?"
Xuanma laughed and said, "Obviously, this is not a real rubber stick, because it does not possess the properties of rubber."
"For example, extensibility and elasticity."
Yamashiro Aoba pondered, "So, Genma, you mean that the effect of Earth Release: Nature Transformation is to shape solid forms, or rather, to replicate the most basic properties of rubber, and then Fire Release, on top of its solidity, imparts properties such as extensibility and elasticity?"
Genma nodded: "That's roughly it. Earth Release is responsible for shaping the most basic characteristics, while Fire Release is responsible for causing a chemical reaction, turning it from a hard solid into a soft, malleable, and highly elastic solid."
"Now I can answer you. Fire Release does not represent a certain material form; its function is to trigger a reaction."
"For example, turning water into a gaseous state, burning a solid into a liquid state, or a fluid, such as magma."
Hatake Sakumo said, "Iwagakure has Lava Release ninjas, whose technique takes the form of lava."
Yamashiro Aoba understood the meaning Genma was trying to convey: "So this Lava Release is also a fusion of Earth Release and Fire Release."
.
Sakumo Hatake nodded: "Indeed."
"Although Genma's analysis was somewhat abstract and complex, it can indeed be used as a reference for training in bloodline limits."
This disciple is becoming more and more remarkable!
Sakumo Hatake sighed inwardly.
After listening, he not only found it refreshing, but also had many new ideas about cultivating bloodline limits.
Yakushi Nonou's face was gentle and calm, but she was deeply shaken: "Although I didn't fully understand, it's obvious that she is an extraordinary genius."
"I've never heard of the principles contained within a bloodline limit being explained so clearly before. It's truly astonishing!"
