Naruto: The Age of Ninja Swordsmen Begins from the Hidden Cloud Village.

Chapter 106 Nine-tailed Jinchuriki

Not to mention Uzumaki Kushina's resentment, on the other side, after breakfast, Tamura Hao was taken to the forging room behind the mansion by Kusayama Ichiro.

Although it is a forging room, it is quite large, fifty meters long and wide, with a huge furnace in the center.

"Starting today, you will follow me to learn forging and hammering in the morning, and learn to identify various ores and metals in the afternoon, and then various smelting methods."

After lighting the huge furnace, Ichiro Kusama took out a huge hammer, which must have weighed hundreds of pounds.

However, it is quite suitable when combined with Ichiro Kusama's burly figure. With the blessing of chakra, the power is indeed not comparable to that of ordinary people.

First, heat a piece of iron ingot that has been smelted to a red glow, then put it on the anvil and smash it with a heavy hammer.

"when!"

A dull sound resounded, and then when the hammer was raised, the iron ingot stood up, and then the second hammer fell down, landing on a different surface.

In this way, while swinging the hammer to forge, the iron ingot is forced to change its landing point constantly, ensuring that every side can be hammered, rather than just being forged into a piece of iron sheet.

Tamura Hao watched carefully on the side, using the power of Kaguya's Sharingan and Byakugan to make detailed observations. He also activated the golden finger to enhance his comprehension to quickly comprehend the mysteries inside.

At the same time, it was confirmed that my guess yesterday was correct. Ichiro Kusama's swordsmanship is indeed related to his own hammer forging. This is the integration of hammer techniques into the swordsmanship, so it is so powerful and strong, swinging the sword is the same as swinging a hammer.

"do you understand?"

After the iron ingot was hammered for the first time, Ichiro Kusama put down the hammer and asked a question.

From yesterday's battle he could see that the child had an amazing learning ability, so this simple forging would definitely not be a problem.

"I understand a little bit."

After thinking for a while, Tian Cun Hao nodded.

"Try it!"

Ichiro Kusama smiled and pushed the handle of the hammer over.

Tiancun Hao didn't hesitate to take the hammer and waited for the iron ingot in the furnace to heat up to the same level as last time. Then he took it out and used his super strength skills to increase his explosive power, swinging the hammer weighing hundreds of pounds and smashing it down.

when!
A dull sound was heard, and Tamura Hao raised the sledgehammer and tried to flip the iron ingot but failed. He could only extend a chakra thread to make it flip.

He took a deep breath, imitating Ichiro Kusama's breathing method, and then swung the hammer down again.

Just two blows were enough to shock Ichiro Kusayama, because he saw that this disciple had learned his breathing method, and even his hammering had a subtle rhythm.

And I haven't even started explaining it yet. It's incredible that you can understand so much just by watching it.

What happened next surprised him even more. This student was still improving rapidly. He truly integrated what he had seen before into himself through practice. His breathing rate became more and more steady, and the rhythm of his forging became smoother and more fluent.

You don’t have to explain this yourself!

"You will definitely surpass me!"

When Tamura Hao finished the first round of forging, Ichiro Kusama had mixed feelings, but more of them were surprises.

If it was just an expectation before, it is now a confirmation.

This child's talent is greater than I thought.

"It's the teacher who teaches well."

Tamura Hao was being modest, but it was not difficult for him to master this type of technique.

First, he had a foundation in various aspects of training before, second, he had the coordination of the Sharingan and the Byakugan, and third, the golden finger improved his comprehension.

For him now, simple learning is not difficult, but the difficult part is to create new methods and cultivate some basic strengths.

For example, the improvement of chakra, the practice of changing the properties of chakra, the practice and improvement of physical fitness, the improvement of mental strength, etc.

It is difficult to take shortcuts in these practices, and even if you can take shortcuts, there are limits, otherwise there will inevitably be endless consequences.

Compared to these basics that can only be improved bit by bit, that type of learning is not difficult for him.

Of course, it is only limited to the learning of techniques and skills. I really cannot directly comprehend and learn methods with a bit of metaphysics like sword Zen, mainly because I don’t have the foundation in that area.

In this way, Tamura Hao followed Ichiro Kusama to learn forging, from forging techniques to theoretical knowledge, as well as the practice of swordsmanship, and the most core sword Zen.

He even created a sword-drawing slash that suits his own style based on the Iai Slash. It was more extreme and pursued an explosion beyond the limit. It was either you die or I die. It was a desperate move.

At the same time, war broke out again on the front line between Konoha and Iwagakure because of the destruction of the Land of Grass, and this time Konoha took the lead in the attack.

In their opinion, the Iwagakure Village dispatched the demolition troops to destroy the Kusagakure Village in preparation for the upcoming war.

It would be safest to strike first at this time and disrupt the layout of the Iwagakure Village to the greatest extent possible.

Otherwise, once the Kusagakure Village completes its arrangements, they will inevitably become more passive.

The Iwagakure Ninja Army was a little confused. They hadn't figured out how the Kusagakure Village was destroyed before, and now they were being attacked by the Konohagakure Ninja Army again.

You know, it's only been a short while since the ceasefire, and they haven't yet recovered.

As the fighting on this front resumed, the Sand Village and the Kumogakure Village also began to attack, but the Kumogakure Village focused more on harassment, trying to tie down Konoha's ninja army here.

To be honest, the Third Raikage really didn't want to fight against the Uchiha-led Ninja Army, because preserving the Uchiha's strength would be more helpful to his plan for Konoha.

The stronger the Uchiha family becomes, the more unstable Konoha will become.

After Sarutobi Hiruzen and others killed the Senju clan, the next target would definitely be the Uchiha clan.

A Konoha with internal strife is a good Konoha. Then they can get some children from the Uchiha side and shape the Uchiha of their own Hidden Cloud Village.

The transplanted Sharingan is never as good as the original one.

Even the Hidden Mist Village took the opportunity to send out the Ninja Army to officially open up the battlefield in the Land of Fire. For a time, Konoha was once again in a state of chaos. The ninjas in the village were sent out in wave after wave, and even the newly graduated students were sent out to cooperate in transporting various supplies to the front line.

Fortunately, the Fire Country Daimyo is aware of the seriousness of the current war situation and is giving the greatest support in terms of funds and materials, otherwise Konoha would not be able to hold on, and at that time would only be able to ask Uzumaki Mito, the main force to stabilize the sea, to fight.

However, Uzumaki Mito is now old, and can barely suppress the Nine-Tails under normal circumstances, but if he uses high-intensity chakra bursts in combat, there is likely to be problems.

If the Nine-Tails cannot be suppressed, I'm afraid it will immediately release the Tailed Beast Ball against Konoha, and then we'll be in trouble.

Therefore, all parties in Konoha are reluctant to use this trump card, and this is also the key to intimidating the four major ninja villages.

Because at that time the four major ninja villages were all afraid of Uzumaki Mito and did not burst out with all their strength to start a war. At least half of the strong ninjas were left in the village.

I am afraid that the one who will go berserk will come directly to the ninja village to release the Tailed Beast Ball. The current war is at most a test.

Even so, Konoha's power was pushed to the limit, and Sarutobi Hiruzen and others were both in pain and happy.

What makes me happy is that this can further weaken the power of the major ninja clans, especially the Senju, Uchiha, and Hyuga.

The painful thing is that the Sand Village front they were responsible for was the most difficult and suffered the greatest losses.

"Why are you looking for me back at this time?"

Appearing from the sealed scroll, Shimura Danzo's shadow clone asked indifferently.

The old friend had previously received an order from the Anbu ninja asking him to come back.

He himself had to stay at the front line to command the battle and naturally could not leave. He could only create a shadow clone and temporarily seal it with a sealing scroll for the Anbu ninja to bring back.

"I heard that you found several Uzumaki descendants scattered throughout the ninja world, among them is a young girl. The village needs a new Nine-Tails Jinchuriki."

Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't waste any time and told the purpose of recruiting Danzo back.

They needed a new Jinchūriki and could not delay any longer.

"You have placed people in the roots?"

Danzo's shadow clone's eyes turned cold, and he thought of Orochimaru first, but then rejected it.

Now he is cooperating happily with Orochimaru. Orochimaru has made good progress in the research on the fusion of the first generation cells and the Sharingan, and he seems to be very curious about the Uzumaki clan. It is impossible for him to leak this information and lose the last experimental subject.

It seems to be someone else. I have to investigate carefully later. There must not be any spies of Hiruzen left in the Root, otherwise there will be no secrets, especially my own great fusion plan must not be leaked.

Sarutobi Hiruzen said nothing, and there was no time for nonsense now.

"She is not fit to be the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki."

With a gloomy face, Danzo Shimura did not intend to hand over the person.

Of course, that tool cannot be handed over, and that girl is also a good backup.

"The village needs a new Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, which is what you promised. For this, we can help you cover up the experiments you are secretly doing on the front line."

Sarutobi Hiruzen knew that this old friend would not agree easily, so he was prepared.

"You threaten me!"

His expression was even more gloomy, how could Danzo's shadow clone not see that this was a threat.

Sarutobi Hiruzen said nothing, which was considered as his agreement.

I really need a new Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, I can't delay any longer, otherwise I won't have time to build a bond with it and control it. That kid will graduate in another year!

"Hiruzen, you will regret this!"

Staring at his old friend, Danzo's shadow clone was really angry.

I was fighting hard on the front line, but you stabbed me in the back. Do you really think that I, Shimura Danzo, have no temper?
"Danzo, I am the Hokage!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen stood up and burst out with powerful chakra.

He was able to become the Hokage because of his hard power.

Even though he no longer has Enma's assistance and his own strength has been greatly reduced, he is still stronger than Shimura Danzo and is the strongest in their small group.

Feeling the pressure of Sarutobi Hiruzen's chakra, Danzo's shadow clone glared fiercely and then took the initiative to release it, transmitting the memory back to the original body.

I am just a shadow clone and cannot do such a thing. I need the real body to do it.

"Hiruzen, will this...?"

Mitomon En looked worried, and Utane Koharu also felt a little worried and guilty.

Ever since they became the village's top leaders, they have never left the village. Most of the time, it was Danzo and the other two who worked hard outside. As a result, Jing died young, Tofu was seriously injured and had to stay at home to recuperate, and Danzo also lost one eye.

The last mission in Whirlpool Country caused Danzo to lose an arm, and he has been fighting on the front line for the past year.

Now they are doing this, which is really not very authentic.

Of course, what they were really worried about was that Danzo would get furious, causing a rift in their group and even affecting their subsequent plans, which would be disastrous.

"I don't want to ask him for someone like this, but we can't delay any longer."

Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled bitterly. He knew very well that forcing Danzo like this would definitely make his old friend angry and cause a rift in their small group.

There is really no choice!

The new generation of Nine-Tails Jinchuriki must be in his own hands. This is the foundation of everything. Otherwise, he will not be able to sleep well in the future.

For the sake of Konoha's stability, Danzo had no choice but to suffer.

At the same time, Danzo Shimura at the front line received the memory fragments sent back by the shadow clone, and his face instantly became gloomy.

"Since you are so ruthless, don't blame me for being unfair!"

With a sinister whisper, Danzo Shimura left behind a shadow clone to continue to preside over the affairs on the front line, and he himself went to Orochimaru's newly established research base.

They had already lost the Kikyoyama front and retreated to the interior of the Land of Fire, relying on the second line of defense to resist the attack of the Sand Village Ninja Army. The research base was naturally also moved.

"Conclude all experiments on the child, remove all scars on his body, and erase his memory. Hiruzen will send someone to pick him up afterwards."

He came behind Orochimaru who was performing an autopsy on a corpse and said something. Although he was very annoyed, he had no choice but to hand the person over.

"Teacher can't wait?"

After pausing his hand movements, Orochimaru had a guess.

"That child is eleven years old this year. He will have to graduate when he is twelve at the latest. Before that, he must establish a bond with the new generation of Nine-Tails Jinchuriki. He doesn't have time."

Shimura Danzo snorted coldly, becoming more certain of that guess.

As expected, Hiruzen chose that child.

"The other kid is also very good."

Orochimaru talked about another child. He was very familiar with the descendants of the Uzumaki he had collected. There were still two children now, both of whom had relatively strong bloodlines.

“He’s my tool.”

Danzo Shimura decisively refused, saying that he still needed that tool for his own grand fusion plan, and he couldn't let Orochimaru touch it, lest he leave any backup plan.

"But without the Uzumaki clan, I won't be able to continue my research."

Orochimaru put down the blood-stained scalpel, turned around and stared at Danzo Shimura seriously.

His experiments could not be stopped at any cost.

"My people found a target in Rain Country that is suspected to be from the Uzumaki clan, but Rain Country belongs to that person, so it is difficult to take action for the time being."

Danzo Shimura revealed another option, that he also attached great importance to Orochimaru's research and could help him perfect the Kisara technique.

"Demigod?"

Orochimaru understood and was relatively satisfied. He just wanted the experiment not to stop.

"I have ordered a special ninja sword and a batch of ninja tools that can counter the magnetic power of the Third Kazekage from the Land of Iron. To prevent any accidents, you should go there in person."

Speaking of a mission, he had fought with the Third Kazekage many times. That kind of magnetic escape technique was very difficult to deal with, especially on a large-scale battlefield.

All iron ninja tools would be controlled by the opponent's iron sand containing chakra, causing him to suffer a lot and inflicting heavy losses.

For this purpose, he specially asked someone to go to the Iron Country to customize a special ninja sword and a special ninja tool, preparing to carry out a killing plan against the Third Kazekage.

Even if we can't kill it, we have to seriously injure it, otherwise the losses will be too great if we continue to fight like this.

Even the daimyo's government sent envoys directly to the front line to reprimand them for losing the first line of defense and allowing the ninja army of the Sand Village to enter the territory of the Land of Fire.

If I want to become Hokage, I need the support of the Daimyo Prefecture, and I can't let those people hate me.

"Are you going to take action against the Third Kazekage?"

Orochimaru licked his lips with his tongue and was very interested in the magnetic escape technique of the Third Kazekage.

"We'll start when the batch of ninja tools arrive."

Danzo Shimura did not hide this battle plan, and Orochimaru would need his help when the time comes.

"I'll leave after I've dealt with the child's physical traces and memories."

Orochimaru was getting impatient. He had experienced the Magnetic Release of the Third Kazekage, and it would be difficult for him to gain the upper hand even if he and Danzo Shimura joined forces.

Fortunately, the war in the Whirlpool Country caused heavy losses to the Sand Village, and the Chiyo siblings are still lying down, so the Sand Village cannot send out too many strong people.

At this stage, there is only one Third Kazekage who is stronger than the jonin. It will be troublesome if another strong person who is stronger than the jonin comes along.

However, according to the information they had obtained, the Chiyo siblings seemed to have recovered to a large extent, so the Third Kazekage must be eliminated before those two went to the battlefield, or at least severely injure him.

Otherwise, there will be greater sacrifices in the future, and there is even the possibility of the defense line being lost.

"How's the new arm?"

Danzo turned the topic to the arm. This swift escape arm was almost at its limit and could not last much longer.

"The arm is already made, I just don't know if you dare to use it."

Orochimaru smiled. To him, Danzo Shimura was a good experimental subject. There were not many experimental subjects whose strength surpassed that of a jonin and who could actively cooperate.

He cherishes it very much!
For this purpose, he specially prepared an arm, which is a good work, but I don’t know whether Danzo Shimura dares to use it.

"you made it?"

Looking at the man soaking in a feeding tube and wearing a breathing mask, Danzo Shimura was very surprised.

He knew that this man was an elite jonin of the Senju clan. He was the one who sent people to sneak into the battlefield in the Land of Grass and got him under the cover of war.

When he was brought here, he was already dying, and then handed over to Orochimaru for treatment. I didn't expect that he has changed so much now.

Dozens of wooden spikes extended from its body, and its right arm was inlaid with dozens of three-magatama Sharingan. The skin on its arm was abnormally pale.

At the same time, there was a golden chain wrapped around the arm, which was the Vajra Blockade of the Uzumaki clan.

“It’s not a success, it just allows the three forces to barely reach a balanced state.

The main reason is that the materials of the Sharingan and Uzumaki are too poor. At least a Mangekyo-level Sharingan is needed to barely compete with the first generation of cells.

We can only resist with numbers now, but we can use the power of all three at the same time."

Orochimaru was not very satisfied with this work, mainly because the materials were too poor, especially the Sharingan and Uzumaki bloodline, which were far inferior to the first generation cells.

"Wait until a new Jinchūriki is born before transplanting!"

His eyes flickered. Danzo Shimura was still very wary of that person and would never cross his bottom line before his death.

"It just so happens that the arm still needs time to adjust to absorbing his chakra. It would be even more perfect with some chakra from the Uzumaki clan."

Orochimaru was not surprised, as that person's deterrent power was still very strong, and this work had not yet been truly perfected.

Although the three powers of that arm are balanced, their strength is not very high, and they do not provide much improvement to a strong man who surpasses the jonin like Danzo Shimura.

If it can be nurtured for another one or two years, the effect will definitely be greatly improved.
