Naruto: Uchiha is not Raikage!

"You ran pretty fast last time."

Qingsi smiled back.

Mei Terumi's tense face suddenly couldn't hold back anymore.

This guy is mocking her for being a coward!
"I'm not concerned about immediate gains."

Mei Terumi spoke.

The Hidden Mist Village and the Hidden Leaf Village are signing a treaty stipulating that ninjas from both sides, no matter how deep their grudges, can no longer fight each other, or they will all be considered rogue ninjas.

"There are many reasons."

Kiyoshi's figure flashed, and he suddenly appeared behind Terumi Mei.

Moving my gaze downwards, I saw that she was wearing a blue strapless dress, with a white belt cinching her waist, making her lower body appear even more voluptuous.

Below the buttocks are tight-fitting fishnet stockings.

Kiyoshi raised his hand.

Snapped!
The sudden noise echoed in the corridor.

The waiting Konoha and Kirigakure ninjas all looked up in this direction.

They could only see Kiyoshi's afterimage slowly disappear, while at the same time, another figure appeared behind Terumi Mei.

As for the source of the sound, they had no idea.

Everything happened too fast, so fast that they didn't even see it clearly.

When did he go there?

Uchiha Shisui's pupils contracted, and he almost revealed his Sharingan.

Right there in the corridor, he didn't even notice Kiyoshi's movements.

Such mastery of "instantaneous movement" is quite terrifying.

Being able to appear silently behind a target also means being able to take the target's life silently.

Mei Terumi, the person involved, widened her eyes slightly, resisting the urge to cover them.

She couldn't do anything indecent in public.

"Damn it, do you want to start a war with Kirigakure?"

Mei Terumi stared intently at Seiji with her emerald green eyes, biting her lip.

"War?"

Kiyoshi shook his head, giving him a look that said, "You're overthinking it."

"We were just exchanging pleasantries; we didn't use any ninjutsu or take out any weapons."

Kiyoshi waved his hand, indicating that he had nothing in his hand.

"..."

Mei Terumi's shamelessness has lowered the bar ever.

This guy clearly took a picture of her secretly!

"You're not using ninjutsu or taking out weapons, right?"

Mei Terumi also smiled.

She raised her fist and threw a straight punch at Kiyoshi.

"Terrumi Mei!"

Hozuki Mangetsu shouted, trying to prevent the conflict from escalating.

"nothing."

Kiyoshi stood still, letting Terumi Mei attack him.

puff.

Mei Terumi passed right through Kiyoshi's body, stumbling and nearly falling to the ground.

Afterimage!

Mei Terumi understood.

Just as she remained vigilant, a warm breath gently blew into her ear.

"I heard you want to become the next Mizukage, right? With your strength, I'm afraid it might be a bit difficult."

Terumi Mei's chest heaved as she instinctively wanted to turn around and kick out.

However, before she kicked him out, she heard Kiyoshi's low voice.

"Or do you have some kind of fetish, enjoying being beaten by me in front of so many people..."

Qingsi didn't continue speaking.

Mei Terumi understood Kiyoshi's meaning.

She clenched her fists but ultimately didn't turn around.

Even now, she still feels a tingling sensation in her skin.

That's where the blows were.

"They're completely stunned."

Kiyoshi placed his hands on Mei Terumi's shoulders, wrapped them around her, and positioned them facing him.

Mei Terumi's beautiful, somewhat aloof face was covered in frost, but due to the extreme fluctuations in her emotions, it even turned slightly flushed.

"I'm not going to argue with you now."

Mei Terumi took a deep breath and deliberately moved away from Kiyoshi.

Whatever grievances we have, we can't settle them here.

Her "Instantaneous Movement Technique" is inferior to Kiyoshi's, so she will inevitably suffer losses in small-scale conflicts.

"This guy's speed has increased again."

Ringo Yuri muttered twice.

Kiyoshi has now become quite powerful. If Kiyoshi hadn't wanted her dead, Ringo Ameyuri didn't think she could have escaped.

"Senior Kiyoshi knows that Hidden Mist ninja?"

Moonlight Gale asked curiously.

"should be."

Maoyue Xiyan nodded.

She could tell that the two knew each other.

It's unlikely to be the positive aspect; they probably faced each other on the battlefield.

"How is your bloodline limit training going?"

Qing Si asked again.

He put his hand down.

It feels good in hand.

The feeling of youth is truly unique.

"Why should I tell you?"

Terumi Mei asked rhetorically.

Was she stupid to leak information to other ninjas?

"Because I've learned to 'dissolve' and escape, surpassing others in the process."

Kiyoshi replied.

"Did you learn how to 'dissolve' yourself to escape?"

Mei Terumi looked suspicious, practically wearing the words "I don't believe you" on her face.

Kiyoshi had just revealed the "Wood" Release bloodline limit, and now a "Molten" Release has inexplicably appeared?

Even in Kirigakure, ninjas who possess the "Lava" Release technique are very rare.

"How about we have a contest, a contest of 'melting' escape? I won't use any other methods during the process."

Kiyoshi said.

Defeating someone has an entry.

However, it's not 100% certain; it depends on a variety of factors.

However, the higher one's talent and the more proficient one is in a certain escape technique, the more likely Kiyoshi is to obtain its related entries.

For example, the swordsmanship entry was initially obtained by Kiyoshi from Kakashi.

Now, his swordsmanship talent is so rare that it is said to be one in a hundred or even a thousand years.

With all sorts of amplifications, Kiyoshi, wielding his sword, felt a surge of inspiration.

"I do not care."

Mei Terumi hesitated for a moment, then shook her head and refused.

What if Kiyoshi just wanted to probe her for information?

She was already weaker than Kiyoshi, and if Kiyoshi knew her true strength, it would be even more difficult for her to surpass him.

"What if I wagered my ninja sword?"

Kiyoshi took out a sealing scroll from his waist and unfolded it.

On the long page were six circular sealing technique patterns.

In the center of each circle are written characters: “断”, “大”, “长”, “钝”, “爆”, and “双”.

These were the six ninja swords that Kiyoshi had confiscated.

The air suddenly fell silent.

The value of these ninja swords to the Land of Water is self-evident.

Hozuki Mangetsu's eyes lit up instantly, and he almost reached out to touch them.

Kiyoshi glanced at him.

Hozuki Mangetsu immediately stopped what he was doing, closed his eyes to adjust his breathing, and then slowly opened his eyes.

"Mei Terumi..."

Hozuki Mangetsu originally intended to stop the conflict between Terumi Mei and Seiji, but after seeing Seiji take out his ninja sword as a wager...

Suddenly, I realized that as long as both sides set out rules and engaged in friendly exchanges, it wouldn't harm the village.

On the contrary, it can also serve as a symbol of peace.

This signifies a shift from a life-or-death struggle to a friendly exchange.

Terumi Mei frowned.

The stakes Kiyoshi offered were indeed very tempting.

If she retrieves these ninja swords, it will be a great achievement, and the village will surely reward her handsomely.

What if I lose?

Mei Terumi didn't make her statement completely.

Seiji is so talented.

Even the most outrageous things a genius says become less outrageous in his mouth.

Therefore, Terumi Meditation wanted to hear about the price she paid for losing.

"If you lose, how about you take me around here for a day?"

Kiyoshi pretended to ponder.

There's a village nearby, not too big, not too small, just average in size.

However, it is built on a bay, and its decorative style is very different from that of the mainland.

"that's it?"

Mei Terumi felt that it was an overstatement.

"You also need to give me a few copies of the 'Boiling' escape technique."

Kiyoshi revealed his true purpose.

He can glean more clues about the "Boiling" technique from these ninjutsu, thus accelerating his mastery of it.

At that time, he will be able to combine the "Boiling" Release with the "Super Strength" that Tsunade gave him.

"Boiling" escape?

Mei Terumi immediately understood Kiyoshi's meaning.

But can one learn such a bloodline limit with just a few scrolls?
If the threshold were so simple, a ninja's chakra attribute wouldn't be a constraint for a ninja.

Most ninjas are born with a certain chakra attribute, and they will learn the corresponding ninjutsu.

It is possible to develop chakra attributes that are not innate, but the effort required will be several times or even dozens of times greater.

Reaching the level of bloodline limit significantly increases the difficulty.

Therefore, although ninjas with bloodline limits are much stronger than ordinary ninjas, their numbers are extremely small.

"Correct."

Qingsi nodded.

My gaze then turned to Hozuki Mangetsu.

He was also interested in Hozuki's secret techniques.

Since it can turn the physical body into a liquid similar to water.

Can we deduce other attributes from this?

Could it transform into thunder, flames, or even a hurricane or rocks?
"Hozuki Full Moon, would you like to give it a try?"

Kiyoshi said.

"I?"

Hozuki Mangetsu wasn't surprised that Kiyoshi knew his name.

A genius ninja's information about his teammates will circulate in various countries.

Without a doubt, he is a genius among the Hozuki clan.

"The bet is my secret technique, isn't it?"

Hozuki Mangetsu saw through Kiyoshi's plan.

Kiyoshi's style was very similar to that of the Hidden Cloud Village. He liked to collect all kinds of secret techniques and bloodline limits, which reminded him of the rumors about Kiyoshi.

It is said that Kiyoshi was originally from the Land of Lightning before being brought to Konoha.

In retrospect, it may not have been entirely unfounded.

"I can't make that decision."

Hozuki Mangetsu shook his head.

He is different from Terumi Mei.

He is a ninja from the Hozuki clan, a large family.

Mei Terumi's bloodline limit is something that she herself developed through an abnormal mutation; none of her parents or relatives have such a bloodline limit.

Just like Hashirama Senju's "Wood" Release, his children and granddaughters were unable to inherit it.

On the contrary, Kiyoshi, this Uchiha, somehow learned the "Wood" Release technique.

"That's it."

Qingsi's expression didn't change.

If the soft one doesn't work, then the hard one will do.

When you encounter a member of the Hozuki clan in the ninja world later, you can use Sharingan genjutsu to force them to reveal the truth.

This is the benefit of having high pupil power and being exceptionally gifted.

They can use such unorthodox methods to rapidly expand their own power.

"I agree." At this moment, Mei Terumi finally spoke.

Taking back the ninja sword will surely earn her a place in the hearts of the Hidden Mist's higher-ups.

She can also contribute her strength to the Hidden Mist Village more effectively.

Seeing this, Kiyoshi nodded slightly.

The two stopped talking and waited in the corridor.

Beneath the seemingly monotonous and unchanging process lies a restless and unsettling atmosphere.

In the Land of Water, there wasn't a single ninja who wasn't curious about Kiyoshi.

Seeing Kiyoshi take action firsthand might be beneficial.

The remaining Uchiha Shisui, Uzuki Yugao, and Gekko Hayate were also very curious about Kiyoshi.

When Tsunade came out after finishing the first day of negotiations, a Konoha ninja reported the matter to her.

"Be careful to go easy on me."

Tsunade was very confident in Kiyoshi's strength.

Previously, Tsunade had seen Kiyoshi practicing "Melting" Release when they went to the Land of Rain.

"it is good."

After Tsunade went to rest, Kiyoshi followed Mei Terumi to an open area.

Behind the two were some ninjas.

Ringo Ameyuri, Hozuki Mangetsu, and others were among those listed.

Besides them, there were also ninjas such as Zabuza Momochi and Kisame Hoshigaki.

"Do not disappoint me."

Kiyoshi stopped and looked at Mei Terumi.

The two were separated by a distance of several dozen meters, and more than two hundred meters away were the ninjas watching.

"Keep it up, Kiyoshi-senpai!"

Gekko Hayate and Uzuki Yugao shouted.

This kind of thing is definitely meant to boost the morale of the Konoha ninjas.

"The Sharingan cannot copy secret techniques and bloodline limits; this is an ironclad rule."

Uchiha Shisui's eyes slowly rotated with the three tomoe, his gaze fixed intently on Kiyoshi.

He also tried to use the Sharingan's unique abilities to copy those secret techniques.

Without exception, they all failed.

None of the clan's ninjas have successfully copied the secret technique.

This would rule out the possibility that Kiyoshi used a secret technique or bloodline limit to copy Sharingan.

How on earth did he do it?
Uchiha Shisui's doubts were about to overflow.

At the same time, he had another idea in mind.

Will such an unconventional Qing dynasty be restricted by a single clan?
If we're talking about "capacity," then a genius like Kiyoshi is a "superior vessel."

How did he view the Uchiha clan and the village?

Uchiha Shisui planned to ask Kiyoshi about it later.

"I won't hold back."

Terumi Mei forms hand seals.

She spat out a large amount of highly corrosive acid, which instantly covered the area.

Lava Release: Lava Monster Technique!
"Not bad, its power and range are much stronger than before."

Kiyoshi formed the same hand seals as Mei Terumi.

The "Lava" technique essentially involves changing the nature of chakra, resulting in a transformation similar to that of matter, giving chakra the high temperature of fire attribute and the solidification characteristics of earth attribute.

It is one of the few techniques that can break through top-level defensive ninjutsu, and is enough to slowly dissolve the "Susanoo" of Edo Madara's "Rinnegan" skeletal form.

If you replace it with a kaleidoscope-level "Susanoo", the dissolution speed will be even faster.

puff!
Kiyoshi's throat tightened, and he spat out a stream of acidic liquid similar to that of Terumi Mei.

The two pools of acid instantly became entangled.

sizzle...

Some of the acid spilled onto the ground, corroding the surface and gradually hardening into a solid.

Kiyoshi retreated, gathering black chakra beneath his feet, and stood on the solution.

"Susanoo" can be disassembled and used individually.

Kiyoshi wrapped his feet up to isolate them from the solution.

Even though he recovers quickly, there's no need for him to experience this pain.

"You're standing on it?"

Mei Terumi frowned slightly.

Smoke was constantly rising from Kiyoshi's feet, making it impossible for her to see what technique she used to stand on the corrosive solid formed from the solution.

"But there is no difference."

A charming smile appeared on Terumi Mei's lips.

She's not a ninja who only relies on her bloodline limit.

Her greatest strength lies in her controllability!
Ordinary ninjas release techniques one at a time.

After finishing, form hand seals to release another ninjutsu.

Unlike others, Mei Terumi always leaves behind a certain amount of chakra when she releases a technique, keeping the technique under her control.

"burst!"

Terumi Mei shouted.

The acidic solid beneath Kiyoshi's feet began to wriggle.

boom!
A violent explosion occurred beneath Kiyoshi's feet, turning the solid back into a liquid state, transforming it into countless tiny water droplets that rushed towards Kiyoshi.

Kiyoshi waved his hand, and the "Lava" Release chakra in his palm appeared, transforming into a shield to block in front of him.

Zhi~!

"If it were anyone else, they would probably be destroyed by bone and blood."

Kiyoshi secretly said.

With a clenched fist, a long sword formed from "Lava" Release chakra appeared in his hand.

He had anticipated that the American Underworld would use such methods.

During the Five Kage vs. Madara, Mei Terumi used "Water Release: Water Pillar" to block "Fire Release: Great Fire Annihilation," and the water left behind immediately transformed into "Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique" and bit Madara's "Susanoo."

He then controlled the water flow to push the Susanoo outwards, placing it in the Raikage's attack trajectory, thus creating a double attack.

It must be said that this is a very clever approach, requiring an extremely high level of chakra control.

Kiyoshi released his grip, and the long sword floated in the air, following Kiyoshi's will.

Mei Terumi dodged the long sword's slash with a swift movement.

"Molten Release..."

Mei Terumi formed hand seals again, and just as she was about to unleash the Lava Release ninjutsu, she suddenly felt a chill down her spine.

"!"

Kiyoshi's ninjutsu has a tracking function!

Mei Terumi was startled and almost used her Water Release defensive ninjutsu.

Thinking of her bet with Kiyoshi, Terumi Mei forced herself to hold back.

She shifted her position again, using the gaps in her movements to form hand seals.

With a single exhale, the corrosive acid solidifies, enveloping the body and creating an effect similar to "Water Release: Water Wall".

Noisy!
The two solutions come into contact.

Mei Terumi formed hand seals and continuously channeled chakra to maintain the solidity of her defense.

"How can it be……"

Kiyoshi's longsword pierced through Mei Terumi's defensive barrier made of solution, right before her eyes.

Like a hot knife cutting butter, it cuts instantly.

Even at close range, Mei Terumi could smell the pungent odor of the solution.

“Uchiha Seiji’s chakra is more solidified than mine…”

Terumi Mei's inner alarm bells rang loudly.

He could only subconsciously exhale a puff of white mist.

The white mist melted Kiyoshi's longsword, causing it to fall to the ground.

Boil Release: Skillful Mist Technique!

This technique, in a sense, is more acidic and corrosive than the "Dissolve" technique.

The caster can control the acidity of the mist by adjusting the amount of chakra, causing it to corrode enemies or avoid accidentally harming friendly forces.

"you lose."

Kiyoshi formed a hand seal with one hand, and a large wave of water surged up behind him.

The wave swept up all the solid solution on the ground and spread it out to other areas.

Water will neutralize the acidity, allowing it to evaporate quickly onto the soil.

Mei Terumi lowered her head and clenched her hands.

She had no choice but to comply.

She lost this time.

He lost in front of everyone.

His supposedly superior dual bloodline limits were no match for the power of Kiyoshi, a mere junior.

"You have grasped the entry: [The Mystery of Lava Escape (Blue)]".

[Entry: The Mystery of Lava Escape (Blue)]

[Requirement: Defeat Mei Terumi.]

【Progress: (Completed).】

[Effect: You have gained a new understanding of the nature transformation of "Lava" Release chakra, increasing your resistance to "Lava" Release chakra nature, and increasing your training speed by 40%.]

【Note: You can continue to advance later. 】

"It's a 'melting' escape."

Just as Kiyoshi was about to lament that no entries related to "Boiling" had been found on the entry panel, a new prompt popped up.

"You have grasped the entry: [The Mystery of Boiling Escape (Blue)]".

[Entry: The Mystery of Boiling Escape (Blue)]

[Requirement: Defeat Mei Terumi.]

【Progress: (Completed).】

[Effect: You have gained a completely new understanding of the "Boiling" Release chakra nature transformation, increasing your resistance to the "Boiling" Release chakra nature, and increasing your training speed by 40%.]

【Note: You can continue to advance later. 】

"40% is enough."

Although they weren't purple entries, just two blue entries, it was enough for Kiyoshi to use.

These entries all show percentage increases. Later on, when the base number becomes much larger, even a one percent increase can lead to a dramatic change.

Besides, you can't just take advantage of a freebie once.

Kiyoshi looked at Mei Terumi.

Negotiations are not something that can be done in a day or two.

In the coming period, he will have plenty of reasons to contact Mei Terumi and release new entries.

ATMs, naturally, need to be squeezed dry before being put back.

Mei Terumi suddenly felt a chill run down her spine.

After a long pause, she spoke:

"A bet's a bet. I'll prepare the secret technique. When would you like to visit this area?"

"It's getting late, let's do it tomorrow."

Kiyoshi smiled, his gaze falling on Mei Terumi's delicate little mouth as it opened and closed.

Konoha's original recipe chicken can be enjoyed in more than one way.

If Princess Shrine Maiden enjoying original recipe chicken is a noble way of eating, then...

Mei Terumi's way of eating is alluring and seductive.

I imagine you'll have different feelings about it.

"That's all for today, let's go."

Kiyoshi walked up to Uzuki Yugao and the others, and beckoned them to leave.

Uzuki Yugao nodded as if waking from a dream.

Everything just happened very quickly.

Both of their ninjutsu had a wide range, forcing them to quickly retreat a little further.

The group traveled together to a nearby village, found Tsunade, and settled there.

……

at the same time.

Fugaku frowned and withdrew from the Kaleidoscope Eye Technique.

"call……"

He exhaled a breath of stale air.

This was the first time he had tried using the Kaleidoscope Eye Technique.

His eye technique allows him to briefly glimpse an uncertain future, which he can then present as an illusion.

However, the future was too uncertain, and Fugaku could only obtain some fragmented clues.

"Did my eyesight deteriorate this much after just one use?"

Fugaku's brows furrowed into a deep frown.

The Mangekyou Sharingan is both proof of the Uchiha clan's rise to its peak and the beginning of its decline.

Every time you use it, you get one step closer to blindness.

"The future that was prophesied was..."

Fugaku wiped the sweat from his brow.

He was shocked to discover that Mikoto was pregnant.

They're still saying things like, "You're not worthy to raise his child," and so on.

"What does this actually mean?"

Fugaku was undecided.

His kaleidoscope eye technique predictions are not absolutely accurate, but rather just one of countless possibilities.

But there are many more possibilities he cannot see.

Just one of those attacks consumed a significant amount of his eye power. (End of Chapter)
