Konoha: Tsunade, I am the Hokage!

Beast transformation.

Jingyan integrated the memories, secretly checked and understood, and after several minutes, Jingyan's expression became slightly strange.

It’s not that there’s anything wrong with this technique.

This knowledge is very comprehensive, covering a wide range of subjects, including wolves, monkeys, birds, and even creatures that swim in the sea. It can be said that it is all-encompassing.

Jingyan glanced at Orochimaru, who was still trying to improve the puppet's arm, wondering if the structure could be further optimized, and not far away...

In the forest, the group of monkeys once again fought with the modified beasts in the forest.

Among those transformed beasts, there are some ninja wolves, some ninja hawks, and some ninja birds, and there are many types.

These species have appeared in Orochimaru's research base.

Good guy!
Is the system taking advantage of Orochimaru?
Jingyan's thoughts wandered, then quickly converged, and he continued to ponder the knowledge and abilities that appeared in the system.

The transformation of ninja beasts is not uncommon.

This kind of transformation can be achieved as long as the knowledge at the proficiency level is mastered. What is really important are the last two levels, which are the qualitative change.

soon……

Jingyan roughly understood it.

gene!

Low-level ninja beast transformation is more about improving chakra and ninja beast abilities.

When one reaches the Grandmaster level, one can perform more special gene extraction and improvement similar to those of the summoned beasts summoned by Pain!
If it were a human, this would definitely be a taboo research, but for ninja beasts, especially in a place like the ninja world...

The improvement of ninja beasts seems to be normal.

Jingyan's eyes lit up.

nice one!
of course.

This thing doesn't have much practical value for Jingyan to improve and create summoning beasts by himself. It can be used more to train summoning beasts for the dark side.

Besides, the Inuzuka clan would certainly not reject such knowledge.

but.

Before that, we still need to make a sample!

Jingyan's thoughts raced as he began to think about how to proceed. Soon he thought of the special two-tailed cat of the Uchiha clan and Kakashi's several ninja dogs...

Kakashi was watching Orochimaru's research with fascination -

He rarely encounters such opportunities.

but.

Watching and watching...

He felt creepy, as if someone was staring at him.

Turn around and look.

"Kyohiko, why are you looking at me?"

"No, I just suddenly thought of a research topic."

Jingyan laughed.

Kakashi glanced at his hands, and then said, "Let me study it?"

"That's not the case. I was just wondering if we could extract the special genes from ninja dogs and ninja beasts, and then improve the excellent genes into another ninja dog."

Jingyan answered.

Kakashi was slightly stunned, but soon realized——

The other party is not interested in him, but in his ninja dog!
Andre.

The ninja dog trained by his father is not as strong as it was in its early years due to its age, but its genes must be very good.

but.

Extracting genes...

He was still pondering, while Orochimaru, who was doing two things at once, asked with a smile, "Kyohiko is doing research on genes?"

"I just watched you research and operate it, and I had some subtle feelings, so I went to learn more about it and study it."

Jingyan instantly came to his side.

Orochimaru put the booklet away.

He had already planned how to improve and design the chakra armor on the Wood Release puppet's arms, and all that was left was to go back to the furnace and rebuild it.

but.

He was very interested in the "genetic modification" mentioned by Jingyan.

"Jingyan, this is a forbidden area!"

"I wouldn't use it on people."

Jingyan shook his head.

Orochimaru was silent, and then he couldn't help but feel a little regretful, but he still tried to fight for it: "If we can study the secrets of genes, we can directly transplant a certain bloodline limit gene..."

"But everyone's situation is different, and the results of gene transplantation are also different. Are we going to risk our lives?"

Kyohiko said in a serious tone.

On the side, Yamato thought of the terrible past, took a step back, and looked at Orochimaru with some vigilance.

Before, Orochimaru's gentleness made him feel that he was kind and non-threatening.

but.

What Orochimaru said just now reminded him that the other party was a terrifying being who had conducted such a cruel experiment...

Yamato swallowed.

It turns out that Orochimaru has not changed at all. The only reason he looks kind now is because he has suppressed his terrifying side.

After all, Kakashi had never experienced anything like that, and he had been on missions in the Anbu and had handled similar missions in other villages, so his reaction was much better than Yamato's.

but.

Obviously, he also did not agree with Orochimaru's ideas, and agreed more with Jingyan's ideas. At this moment, he stood beside Jingyan with a clear attitude.

Orochimaru sighed softly.

"Kyohiko-kun, you are much more open-minded than many of the corrupt people in this village. You are the only one in this village who can understand me."

Even if it was Jiraiya and Tsunade, Orochimaru didn't think that the two could understand his vision.

They just think that their research is shocking.

but.

Jingyan is different. He will study, discuss, and explore the uses of this aspect, and put his research and ideas to use instead of avoiding them like snakes and scorpions and putting them on the shelf.

Here with Jingyan, he felt the joy of being recognized.

Regrettably--

Even Jing Yan still has the limitations of being a human being in many cases.

of course.

This is from Orochimaru's perspective.

From Jingyan's perspective...

"Senior, this is what we insist on as human beings, but you don't have to worry, some problems will be solved in the future."

Jingyan laughed.

Orochimaru pondered for a moment, then smiled and said, "Let's discuss this later. These contents may still be too advanced for these two children."

"You guys go back first, I'll discuss the bark matter with Orochimaru-senpai."

Jingyan nodded.

Kakashi was speechless. He and Jingyan were clearly the same age. Jingyan was at most a few months older than him, but now...

I always feel that Jingyan is several years older than him, as if they are not from the same generation.

such as--

Orochimaru, Minato and Kyohiko all befriended each other as if they were peers, rather than having a generation gap between them.

but.

Orochimaru actually knew about the "tree bark" matter?

Kakashi has a very active mind.

He quickly thought of a message -

The Anbu Prison back then once held Yekura, an elite jonin from the Sand Village, but later Yekura disappeared in the prison.

Could it be Ye Cang's Burning Release?
His eyes widened slightly.

Jingyan patted his shoulder, and then immediately remembered something else.

"Take it."

Kakashi took it, his eyes revealing confusion.

"I used your identity last time, and I heard that your value has soared. Here are some of my experiences that may be helpful to you. You can take a look at them. You don't have to learn all of them, but we can learn from each other."

Jing Yan said.

His White Fang swordsmanship had previously reached the grandmaster level, and he had already formed his own style and approach.

It can be said that at that point, it is no longer considered White Fang Sword Skills—

Different from White Fang's swordsmanship.

Jingyan's sword is mostly used in conjunction with Taijutsu, Ninjutsu and Flying Thunder God. Due to the Sage Mode, Lightning Release Armor, super strength, and his own strong physique...

His sword is more powerful, so he doesn't need to worry so much.

These are innate advantages that Sakumo and Kakashi cannot achieve. They can only change their skills, so blindly learning from him will definitely lead to a dead end. In addition to the sword skills, there is another ninjutsu above.

Hell Thrust - Four-handed attack.

The third Raikage's signature technique, if mastered, the destructive power will be extremely strong, similar to Kakashi's Raikiri.

Kakashi didn't refuse.

He needs to get stronger!
Only after becoming stronger can he take on a higher position, do more things, and protect more companions.

"gone."

Kakashi waved.

Jingyan nodded slightly and watched him take Yamato away before he asked, "As for Ye Cang, should I go alone or will you come with me?"

Orochimaru couldn't wait any longer, so how could he go with him?

"It's just about reinforcing the seal. You can go. I'm too lazy to make a trip. Also, ask Minato to bring the people back quickly and bring back a batch of metals for the armor."

"Since Fenghua Nutao wants to use this armor to kill Fenghua Zaoxue, it is impossible for him to only leave the materials for one piece of armor!"

He couldn't wait to see the complete armored puppet.

Isn't puppet armor controlled by humans much stronger than chakra armor?

……

Outside Kikyo Castle, Rasa left for Konoha under the escort of a small group of Konoha ninjas.

He had mixed feelings.

Compared to the past, Platycodon City is more prosperous today.

Many caravans passed through Kikyo City, and built it into a hub from the Land of Fire to the western countries. Even some caravans from the Land of Taki and the Land of Hot Spring deliberately passed by here.

There is no other reason.

The Fire Country is safe and stable, especially the capital of the Fire Country, Kyoto. Who doesn't know that a group of ninjas trained by Konoha and monks of the Fire Temple are stationed in Kyoto of the Fire Country?

Those ninjas are a force recognized by Konoha and the Daimyo.

In addition, there are also a large number of Konoha ninjas stationed in some important towns on the border.

In the entire ninja world, no trade route is safer and easier to travel than the one through the Land of Fire.

In comparison, the Kingdom of Wind is...

It’s not that there are no caravans, but the caravans from the Kingdom of Wind are mostly concentrated in the rich and fertile south, while there are too few people coming from the desert in the north.

Especially after the defeat.

This is also the reason why Rasa had to come to Konoha.

The Sand Village has no other choice but to become more closely tied to Konoha!
"Kazekage-sama."

"Let's go, they are just escorting us."

Luo Sha is emotionally stable.

Maki exhaled and nodded, "Yes!"

……

Border, Kikyo City.

Chakra fluctuations were heard from the flying thunder formation.

Everyone was ready.

A few seconds later, Jingyan appeared in the center of the flying thunder formation.

Baiyun Yeshan came quickly.

After arriving here, he saw that it was Jing Yan. He was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Master Jing Yan, I just sent Feng Ying and the others away..."

"It's okay, I'm not looking for them."

Jingyan nodded.

Of course, it was impossible to let Luo Sha know about the Flying Thunder Array.

He glanced at Baiyun Yeshan.

"Senior, there are frequent movements in the Iwagakure Village, so we are going to trouble you here."

“I will definitely live up to the village’s trust in me!”

Baiyunyeshan Station is upright.

Jingyan chatted for a few words and then quickly left.

Outside Kikyo Castle, Ye Cang closed his eyes and felt the rhythm of the curse.

This curse seal gave her greater power and increased her chakra, but at the same time, she would also be restricted by the curse seal.

As the time was approaching, she clearly felt her body being eroded, and she needed to use chakra to counteract this negative impact.

Suddenly, she opened her eyes and took out a kunai.

"it's me."

As the voice came, Jing Yan appeared beside her almost at the same time.

The voice and the person arrived almost at the same time.

So fast!

She was secretly shocked.

"How is your health?"

"It's okay, I just need to suppress it with chakra."

Ye Cang answered.

Then, she paused, "The fight with Hanzo and that guy before might have accelerated its penetration."

As she spoke, she revealed her arm.

Her curse mark was planted on her arm, appearing as a small white spot, and if you didn't look closely, you couldn't see the difference.

but.

Through perception, Jingyan could still feel that the chakra of the cursed seal was indeed seeping out.

but.

At present, it cannot cause direct damage and the poison inside has not dissipated.

Safety!

He formed seals with his hands, quickly reinforcing the seal, then opened his fingers and pieces of wood shot out from his fingertips and pierced into the area around Ye Cang's curse seal.

Ye Cang gritted his teeth and endured the pain.

One second, two seconds...

The chakra from the curse seal was absorbed along the wooden thorns, and the wound healed quickly.

Afterwards, Jingyan added another seal.

This is the Yin seal technique.

"what is this?"

Ye Cang looked at it strangely.

After the seal was completed, a strange mark appeared where she had been sealed before.

Flying Thunder God Mark?
Jingyan's Flying Thunder God Mark had been drawn for her to see before, and it didn't look like this.

"You can understand it as a second seal that can store the chakra that seeps out from it, and when it turns green you can release the seal to extract the chakra."

"Nothing will happen?"

Ye Cang raised his eyebrows.

Jingyan shook his head, "Chakra itself isn't very harmful, and if you get to the point where you need to use it, do you need to consider the consequences of using it?"

"If it's full, do I need to release it?"

Ye Cang asked.

Jing Yan nodded and replied: "You need to be careful. If this kind of chakra accumulates for a long time, it will definitely harm the human body, so you can only keep it for half a month."

This is one of the "inter-column battery" solutions he came up with.

It works now, but it's very dull -

According to his improved fool-proof method of releasing seals, this method currently needs to be fully stored before it can be used, and all chakra will be released at once after release.

Since the one being seeded does not understand the Yin Seal, so...

It also cannot be re-sealed.

After it was explained clearly, Ye Cang understood.

This thing is used as a buffer for her.

"If you want to use it in advance, you can actively input chakra into it. It will take some time, but it will definitely be faster than waiting."

"Thank you."

Ye Cang nodded, feeling very complicated.

As a Konoha ninja, Kyouhiko didn't have to do this, and the reason he did this was obviously because he hoped that she would be able to survive if she encountered danger.

Otherwise, Jingyan wouldn't have had to do this at all.

and.

Curse Seal...

It's becoming more and more perfect.

She could imagine that the full version of the curse would definitely have more effects than this. (End of this chapter)
