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

Chapter 150: Famous Sword
After thinking for a while, Tian Cun Hao continued to hug the girl to sleep, and started forging swords the next day.

“It should work!”

Looking at the red-hot blade of the Little Meow Claymore in the special furnace, Tamura Hao took a deep breath, took out the two sections of the blade, quickly brushed off the oxide layer on them with a steel brush, and then stacked them together for forging.

This type of superimposed forged blade can only be repaired by further superimposed forging. Welding and casting are not possible.

It is a fusion of rigid materials and flexible materials through superimposed forging to obtain both rigid and flexible properties.

The two materials themselves cannot be melted and fused, otherwise the formed molecular structure will not have the hardness and toughness of both, and will eventually become a piece of waste.

After all, there are only a few material alloys that can achieve perfect strength and toughness through melting and fusion, so the little cat that was broken twice can only fuse them in this way of folding and forging.

Thousands of layers of folding are already the limit of the material, and further folding has a high probability of failure.

However, now that he has realized the unity of man and sword, he can temporarily integrate his own sword intent into the blade, thereby temporarily improving the properties of the material, and it should be able to withstand further folding and forging.

With his upper body bare, Tamura Hao swung the hammer and forged quickly. The two halves of the blade soon merged into a whole piece of material, which was then forged to be extended and reshaped into a blade blank.

Finally, a small hammer is used to forge the sharp edge and subtle shaping. For example, the curvature of the blade needs to be forged out slowly to eventually create a perfect curve.

Yeyue Ai and others were watching from the side, after all, this was the forging of a famous sword handed down from generation to generation.

After forging, Tamura Hao quenched the blade and the back of the blade to different degrees to improve its strength and toughness.

"Perfect!"

Looking at the blade in his hand, Tiancun Hao smiled, very satisfied with the result.

My idea was correct. After incorporating the sword intent, the material properties would be temporarily improved to complete a higher level of forging.

Another round of folding forging improved the strength and toughness of the blade a little bit. Although the improvement is not much, it is a step forward and of great significance.

If I fight with Big Cat with all my strength now, I will definitely be able to cut a hole in Big Cat's blade.

This is the essence of a knife. A slight difference can make a world of difference, just like in the past when the industry was shaping the corresponding gears, they all chose to harden them together in order to keep the hardness at the same level, so as to minimize wear.

Uchiha Guang was the first to step forward and take the recast Meowth to observe it. He even injected chakra into it and frowned instantly.

"It's far inferior to the Thunder Blade."

It is very different from his own Thunder Blade, and does not have that special feeling. It is definitely not a famous sword handed down from generation to generation.

"I just repaired Xiao Miao, and I didn't say I wanted to make it into a famous sword passed down from generation to generation. The material of this sword doesn't have that kind of potential."

Tamura Hao took the blade back to grind and sharpen it, and finally reassembled the guard and handle.

Without stopping, he took out the blade of the Big Cat that had been forged in the furnace a long time ago and further folded and forged it.

The two knives are a pair, so naturally they have to be forged to the same level, which can be regarded as striving for perfection.

With the temporary blessing of the sword's intention, Da Mao's reforging was smooth and perfect, and the strength and sharpness of the blade were also improved a little.

Unfortunately, because it was forged using the folding technique, this is already its limit and it is impossible for it to become a famous sword handed down from generation to generation.

If you want a famous sword to be passed down from generation to generation, you must never use the folding forging technique, because the material of that kind is layered in nature, which hinders the transmission of energy.

Only materials that are integrated as a whole can provide perfect energy blessing.

Therefore, the materials are either melted and fused, or combined using a double-teaming technique like the one used to create Kusugawa Kirei.

It was already dark when the forging of the two swords was completed. Tamura Hao took the many high-strength alloys developed by the Hidden Cloud Village and studied them according to the formula.

Because of the firearms project, the Hidden Cloud Village specifically carried out the research and development of high-strength alloys, and even arranged for people to infiltrate some high-tech companies in this field to steal alloy shaping formulas, and reaped rich rewards.

Some of them have excellent alloy properties that can be fused with chakra-conducting metals, and chakra-conducting metals are the important foundation for casting famous swords that are passed down from generation to generation.

In fact, this metal was not called chakra conducting metal earlier. It was only after the ninja system flourished and became mainstream that it was renamed chakra conducting metal.

This thing was called energy conducting metal before the emergence of chakra. It was specially used to forge swords for samurai, as well as some magical instruments for onmyojis and monks.

There are conductive metals in the Kusanagi sword, so Tamura Hao attaches the most importance to these alloys that incorporate conductive metals, which are the foundation for casting famous swords that will be passed down from generation to generation.

"Master, can you give me this little meow?"

Whirlpool Vanilla came over with Xiao Miao in her arms and liked this knife very much.

The master is now able to forge a famous sword that will be passed down through the ages, but this sword does not have the potential to become one and will definitely not be used again in the future, so it is a good opportunity for me to take it.

She is not yet qualified to use the famous sword handed down from generation to generation, so it is most appropriate for her to use this precious sword that was exchanged by its owner.

"Be careful, it's sharp."

Tian Cun Hao did not refuse. He reached out and gently stroked the girl's soft hair and gave her instructions.

"You want that knife too?"

Looking at Uzumaki Kushina who was hugging Big Cat behind Vanilla, Tamura Hao realized that this girl had set her eyes on Big Cat.

"If you want, you can call the master and let him listen."

In this world, there are many ways for a wife to address her husband, and master is one of them.

"Danna!"

Uzumaki Kushina called out, but it wasn't the master, it was Dana.

She really couldn't say the word "master". In fact, if it weren't for the knife, she wouldn't even say it.

"Hey, home!"

Tian Cun Hao responded with satisfaction. He didn't expect the girl to call him master. He just proposed it for bargaining.

"Be careful, it's very sharp."

I won't be able to use those two knives in the future as I need to upgrade my equipment. There's no point in keeping them, so I might as well give them to the two girls.

"Thank you!"

A smile appeared on Uzumaki Kushina's face, and she thanked him before walking away with Big Cat in her arms.

She had been coveting this knife for a long time. It happened that when she awakened the power of the Thousand Hands bloodline, she gained the Yang and Earth attributes, which allowed her to use supernatural powers. It must be very enjoyable to chop with this knife.

In addition, with the awakening of the Sharingan, she gained the two attributes of thunder and fire. Combined with the previous three attributes of wind, water and yin, she has become a genius with all attributes.

The four attributes obtained later are not very strong, and they need to be improved through hard practice, especially the thunder attribute which needs to be practiced first.

As for the new attributes obtained by Uzumaki Kushina and others, Tamura Hao was envious.

After all, he is of the Otsutsuki bloodline, and that kind of bloodline is naturally endowed with all attributes.

"Don't ask, I can't upgrade your Congyunqie, Brother Ai.

There is currently no method to fuse metals with multiple properties, and rash fusion will only result in waste.

Otherwise, I will forge you a famous sword with a single attribute."

After taking a look at Yeyueai who was carrying Cong Yunqie over, Tiancunhao rejected the promotion of Cong Yunqie without waiting for him to speak.

The composition is too complicated, with materials of three attributes. It is impossible to upgrade it into a famous sword handed down from generation to generation unless one masters the technique of further melting the materials of the three attributes.

“I’ll just use this.”

After opening his mouth, Ye Yueai finally sighed in disappointment.

Compared to a famous sword with a single attribute, the Kusakumo Kirei, which is made of three-attribute metals, is more practical. It can not only enhance the lightning-style ninjutsu, but also absorb the blood of others to restore physical strength. It can also enhance the earth-attribute ninjutsu to assist in combat and defense.

Tiancun Hao continued his research. He attached great importance to his first famous sword passed down from generation to generation, and it had to be flawless.

His attribute is thunder. His biggest advantage in combat nowadays is speed, whether it is slashing speed or movement speed.

This advantage will naturally be further expanded, and on the battlefield, increasing speed is even more popular.

It is very useful whether it is for a sneak attack or for running away to save your life.

The next stage is to practice the changes in the properties of the wind attribute. Both chakra attributes help to increase speed, and the wind and thunder attributes can be combined into swift escape, which can further increase the speed. It is perfect as the first bloodline limit.

With the sword-making basics taught by Ichiro Kusayama, and the alloy formula obtained by the Hidden Cloud Village through various means, Tamura Hao finally formulated an alloy material that could meet his own needs.

First, put the lightning chakra conducting metal into the crucible and melt it with the Amaterasu flame, and then mix it with various special materials, which contain not only metals, but also other material elements.

As someone who knew the existence of the periodic table, Tamura Hao naturally knew that excellent alloy steels contained not only metal elements. The fusion of non-metallic elements could also provide some special properties and even increase strength.

For example, the most common carbon steel, the carbon element in it is not a metal, and it is the main element to improve the hardness. After obtaining the most satisfactory alloy steel, Tiancun Hao started forging.

Because of this forging, the Third Raikage created a shadow clone, sealed it up, and sent it over using the Tensou no Jutsu to watch.

A famous sword handed down from generation to generation and a sword of supreme merit level are not the same thing. If their Hidden Cloud Village can have the ability to forge a famous sword handed down from generation to generation, their strength will undoubtedly be further enhanced, especially for a Kage-level powerhouse.

Tamura Hao ignored the arrival of the Third Raikage and devoted himself to forging the sword.

Not only is he forging the sword shape, but he is also using the Yin-Yang escape power of Kaguya and the Juubi to integrate the authentic sword left by the dark side into it, making it the sword spirit inside.

He didn't know how the famous swords handed down from generation to generation were forged in the past, and even Hei Jue had never paid attention to this aspect.

Moreover, the Onmyoji monk-samurai system was severely damaged during the reign of Kaguya Otsutsuki. Most of them became nutrients for the sacred tree and were transformed into White Zetsu. What remained afterwards were broken heritages, causing a gap in the inheritance of all systems.

Even if Black Zetsu wanted to focus, he had no good targets, but Yin-Yang Release could forge weapons that were comparable to famous swords handed down from generation to generation.

For example, the Seven Star Sword among the Six Paths Ninja Tools is actually a famous sword handed down from generation to generation, and it can easily fight against the Kusanagi sword.

That is what the Six Paths Sage used to forge using Yin-Yang Release combined with some other materials, and the same goes for the other Six Paths Ninja Tools.

Although the level of Yin-Yang Release power recovered by Kaguya and the Juubi is far inferior to that of the Six Paths Sage, it is enough to assist in forging the sword, at least to integrate the sword spirit into the blade.

This is a hacky approach, but it doesn't matter as long as it produces results.

After a whole day of forging and fusion, the sword spirit was finally perfectly integrated. Tamura Hao also quickly formed the sword body and began to hammer out the edge of the blade.

The material of this alloy is very rare and precious. The material cost alone is 1 billion taels, of which 900 million taels are lightning-attribute chakra-conducting metals. He is reluctant to waste too much on polishing.

In order to ensure the sturdiness of the blade, the gradual thinning process is still used, with the tip of the blade being the thinnest and the root of the blade being the thickest.

And because the blade is 2.2 meters long, the thickness of the blade back near the guard has reached 1.2 centimeters, and the width of the blade is 5 centimeters.

He also wanted to forge a narrow and thin blade like the authentic sword, but unfortunately this world still requires a bit of science, so he could only make the structure more reasonable, otherwise the blade would bend easily when used, affecting the performance of the swordsmanship.

This is also the main reason why this knife uses so much material. The weight of the whole knife has reached an astonishing thirty kilograms.

After a little polishing to make it even sharper, Tamura Hao held the new sword and injected chakra into it. In an instant, fine arcs of electricity flashed on the blade, and the lightning-attribute chakra flowed smoothly inside without any hindrance.

"Success?"

The Third Raikage asked, and the others stared at the knife, waiting for Tamura Hao's response.

"It succeeded. It has reached the level of a famous sword handed down from generation to generation, but it is still a little worse than the Kusanagi sword."

Nodding, Tamura Hao could feel that this sword was slightly inferior to the Kusanagi sword. Although not by much, there was still a difference.

However, after all, this is a newly created method of casting a famous sword, and it is the first time to forge it. It is good enough to be successful, and it can be improved slowly later.

Everything should be done step by step. It is impossible to become fat in one go.

"Good! Good! Good!"

After getting the confirmation, even the Third Raikage, with his intelligence, couldn't help but say three "good" words, and was very excited.

With this famous sword, their Hidden Cloud Village will surely become even stronger.

"Does it have to be the dark side guided by the real waterfall as the material for the sword spirit?"

Tutai Shadow Clone asked, this is a big restriction.

“The sword spirit created with this dark side as the material will have a higher degree of compatibility with the sword wielder, and it will be easier to connect and merge with the sword spirit, thus exerting the most extreme combat power.

At the same time, it is difficult for the enemy to merge with it after taking it away, and the sword spirit may even resist it, which is equivalent to recognizing the master. "

Nodding, Tamura Hao explained the advantages of this method.

“Can it be passed on?”

Tutai asked, it would be a bit of a bummer if it couldn’t be passed on to others for use.

After all, no one can be immortal, and the cost of such a knife is too high.

If they replaced it with a normal style long sword, the material cost would be 100 million taels. Even though the Hidden Cloud Village was wealthy and powerful, they could not make many.

If a person dies by binding the knife directly, it would be a waste if the knife could not be passed on to others for use after the knife holder dies.

“There is no solution that has been thought of yet.”

Spreading his hands, Tiancun Hao knew about this flaw, but had not thought of a solution at this stage.

"There are not many people who are qualified to forge at this stage."

The Third Raikage didn't care much. At this stage, there were not many people who were qualified to forge the famous sword. First of all, one had to have enough qualifications to contribute in the village, and then one had to provide the material costs on his own.

The third is to defeat the dark side of oneself at the Real Waterfall. Only by chopping the dark side into pieces can one obtain the purest core as the sword spirit.

Finally, one must cultivate the sword intent that combines man and sword.

There are not many people in the village who can meet all these conditions at the current stage. Even though he has just started practicing sword Zen, he is still far from achieving the unity of man and sword and comprehending the sword intent.

And Xiao Hao also said that there is no way to solve it for the time being, but there may be a way in the future.

"Then we can only collect materials and stockpile them, and then forge knives on a large scale after solving these problems."

Dodai was not in a hurry either. After all, their goal was the next Ninja World War. In this Ninja World War, their Hidden Cloud Village would not be too deeply involved, and the demand for combat was not high.

However, the collection of materials cannot stop in preparation for the future.

After discussing the sword-forging matter, the Third Raikage's clone told the story of the Ninja World War.

"The Tsuchikage and his men sent a letter asking us to reinforce the front line and increase the intensity of the war."

"The cause of the incident was the person who split the Nine-Tails into two and created two Nine-Tails Jinchuriki for Konoha. One of them was the one you valued, Minato Namikaze."

Tutai made additional explanations, expressing his distress and fear about this.

The Nine-Tails Jinchuriki alone and the Flying Thunder God Jutsu alone are nothing, but combining the two is too foul.

If we don't eliminate Minato Namikaze before he grows up, it will become a nightmare for all forces.

"That means we have to do something serious."

Tiancun Hao understood that the war had officially begun and all that had happened before was just a warm-up.

"You, Ai, and Fukai will go to the front line. You will lead the rest of the war. I will stay in the rear and provide support at any time."

The Third Raikage wanted to use this Ninja World War to train these three most outstanding successors, so that by the time of the next Ninja World War, they would be able to stand on their own and better accomplish the great cause of the village.

"Finally, I can officially participate in the war."

Yeyueai and Fukai on the side were very excited. This kind of large-scale war could best temper people. In fact, war and killing itself was a top-notch way of practicing sword Zen.

It is said that Admiral Mifune was able to achieve the unity of man and sword with the help of the First Ninja World War. They can also follow this path and practice sword Zen to the limit more quickly to prepare for realizing the unity of man and sword.

"Xiao Hao, you should contact Uchiha secretly in this regard. We must make the Konoha Ninja Army shed enough blood, otherwise the three Ninja Villages will be unbalanced."

The Third Raikage was very optimistic about this disciple's intelligence and scheming. Although he did not have much experience in war command, at least he could ensure that he would not suffer any loss, which was enough of a guarantee.

Coupled with their secret alliance with the Uchiha, it would not be difficult to kill the Konoha ninja army here, even some disobedient Uchiha ninjas.

"Watch out for the Uchiha, they are very ambitious."

Dodai reminded them that the Uchiha would not be willing to be their pawns, as they also have their own ideas.

Hearing the name Uchiha, Uchiha Mikoto next to her felt worried, but she couldn't say anything.

I can only pray that my father and Fugaku-kun don't fight against Kumogakure. After entering Kumogakure, I realized how powerful this ninja village is. Especially the Third Raikage, who is now terrifyingly strong. Even the Mangekyo is nothing in front of him.

Once the Uchiha breaks off relations with the Hidden Cloud Village, there will be almost no chance of winning.

Karula, who was standing next to her, seemed to have noticed Uchiha Mikoto's thoughts. She reached out and held her hand, shaking her head slightly.

She and Mikoto were in a similar situation, and both were concerned about their former relatives and companions, but there was not much they could do now.

They can only rely on their own efforts to maintain the friendly cooperation between the Hidden Cloud Village and the Uchiha Village of Sand Village. It would be their limit if they could prevent the Hidden Cloud Village from turning against them.

If the Sand Village and the Uchiha had any plans and took the initiative to become enemies with the Cloud Village, they would really have no choice and could not get involved, otherwise it would be difficult to even protect their bottom line.

I hope those people can be smarter and not do stupid things!
