Ninja World: I'm really a support-type ninja

"If the Karma seal is composed of nothing but Yin Release chakra and the user's soul, then why do those who obtain the Karma seal possess such great power?"

"Moreover, in addition to immense power, physical attributes and lifespan will be greatly improved. I don't believe that such a change can be achieved solely through the soul and ultra-high-quality Yin Release chakra."

Akira Hatake's deduction was correct. Both Jigen and Boruto, Naruto's son in the original timeline, experienced varying degrees of enhancement in strength, physical attributes, and lifespan after obtaining the "Karma" seal.

In other words, the space containing the "Wedge" mark contains not only the user's soul, but also the user's remaining power before death.

Otherwise, it would be difficult to transform an ordinary person into someone like Cixian using only the power of the soul.

You have to understand that Jigen has lived for over a thousand years. Before Akira Hatake reached the Six Paths level, he never dared to imagine that he could live for so long.

When Isshiki Otsutsuki imprinted the "Kuwakushi" mark on Jigen, Jigen was just an ordinary ascetic monk with no power whatsoever.

This clearly shows that Kaguya Otsutsuki concealed the most important part of the "Karma" mark, revealing her true intentions.

Seeing that Kaguya Otsutsuki remained silent, Akira Hatake's expression darkened. "Kaguya Otsutsuki, why aren't you saying anything?"

"Did I hit the nail on the head? Now you have nothing to say?"

"You asked about the principle and weaknesses of the 'wedge' mark, and I have already told you the truth."

Kaguya Otsutsuki, without batting an eye, blatantly lied, "But you didn't ask what the power that makes up the 'Karma' seal actually is, so that doesn't count as me breaking the contract."

"Trying to play word games with me, huh?!"

Akira Hatake glared at Kaguya Otsutsuki with a hostile expression. "Although the Otsutsuki clan is said to be immortal and can only be sealed away, I don't believe it."

Akira Hatake was telling the truth; the remains of the Otsutsuki clan member found in the underground dragon vein of Loulan were the best proof.

Although when Akira Hatake encountered him, he still retained some consciousness and an extremely large amount of chakra, Akira could tell that the Otsutsuki's consciousness was almost nonexistent.

Therefore, the Otsutsuki clan can be destroyed. If Akira Hatake's guess is correct, the Otsutsuki clan's weakness is their soul.

Taking two steps forward, Hatake Akira approached Kaguya Otsutsuki, who was lying on her side on the large bed. "Since you possess a soul, if I were to destroy your soul... would you still be immortal?!"

"Ha, an interesting but also boring idea."

Kaguya Otsutsuki remained completely unfazed. "If the souls of my race could be destroyed so easily, then our race would never have dominated the entire starry sky!"

Kaguya Otsutsuki's words were true; the soul strength of the Otsutsuki clan is indeed very high, as can be seen from the brothers Hagoromo and Hamura.

After the two brothers died, their chakra dissipated throughout the ninja world, but their souls did not disappear; instead, they were hidden in the Pure Land.

Moreover, their souls are immortal, and the chakra they scattered throughout the ninja world can be freely mobilized by them.

This is the Otsutsuki clan's talent, and also their greatest asset.

"I don't have any techniques that can attack the soul, but I do have weapons that can cause real damage."

After Kaguya Otsutsuki said that, Akira Hatake already had a solution.

The soul is something that cannot be seen or touched. Unless both are in a soul state or their power reaches a certain level, the living cannot see the existence of the soul.

But Akira Hatake is clearly not among them; his strength is already great enough that he can see anything that actually exists.

As for how to attack the soul?

Akira Hatake naturally had his own way of dealing with it; otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to speak so confidently.

The sealing scroll on his back contains many weapons from the equipment store, including some that can cause real damage.

No matter how powerful the soul is, it is no match for real damage.

Although the damage multipliers of those items that can deal true damage are relatively low, don't forget that Akira Hatake inherited the hero panel of Ming Shi Yin!

The key point is self-evident: as long as Akira Hatake's chakra chain connects to the enemy, the true damage caused by his third skill, "Tai Gua: Longevity," will naturally include damage to the soul.

"Hehe, show it to me."

Kaguya Otsutsuki was fearless and didn't take what Akira Hatake said to heart at all.

The entire starry sky is vast and boundless, and the ninja world is just one planet in the vast starry sky and earth. It is big in some ways, but small in others.

The Otsutsuki clan traversed countless planets in the starry sky, encountering and destroying one person after another. If there were weapons that could directly harm the soul, their clan would have long since disappeared from the stage of history.

Therefore, Kaguya Otsutsuki only thought that Akira Hatake was talking big and didn't take his words to heart at all.

"I hope you can still smile later!"

Seeing that Kaguya Otsutsuki wouldn't shed a tear until she saw the coffin, Akira Hatake felt a surge of anger rising within him.

Who is this arrogant attitude meant for!

With a wave of her hand, a purplish-red soul chain shot out and instantly bound to Kaguya Otsutsuki.

To be honest, Akira Hatake didn't know at first that he could use the abilities that came with the Ming Shi Yin hero template while in his soul form.

However, Ming Shi Yin's hero template is imprinted on Hatake Akira's soul. As long as there is power in his soul, he can use the abilities imprinted on Hatake Akira's soul.

Moreover, due to the nature of the abilities, the components that make up the chain will also change with the environment.

For example, if Akira Hatake is currently in a soul state, then when he uses the skill "Lin Gua: Worry-Free", its energy composition is Akira Hatake's soul power.

Is it okay to use one's soul to harm another soul?

The moment the soul chain was attached to her, Kaguya Otsutsuki was startled at first, and then almost laughed, but the smile that had just appeared suddenly froze on her face.

"How can this be!"

Kaguya Otsutsuki felt threatened; her soul was currently enduring excruciating burning pain every second, and the damage was considerable.

"what did you do to me!"

Akira Hatake picked at his ear. "As you can see, this is one of my methods for harming souls."

"Kaguya Otsutsuki, are you still saying that the souls of your Otsutsuki clan are invincible and indestructible?"

Akira Hatake took another step forward, "Kaguya Otsutsuki, you'd better tell me in detail about the 'Karma' mark, otherwise..."

"Don't blame me if I go too far later!"

Hearing Akira Hatake's declaration, Kaguya Otsutsuki fell silent.

Born into the noble Otsutsuki clan, Kaguya Otsutsuki maintains a state of indifference towards all life except for her own clansmen.

Although Akira Hatake was exceptionally strong, reaching a level comparable to Kaguya Otsutsuki, in Kaguya's eyes, he was still an insignificant and inferior being.

They are short-lived species; compared to long-lived species, their lifespan is their biggest weakness.

No matter how strong Hatake Akira is, how long can he live, and how long can he maintain his dominance over the entire province?

Just like when she and Isshiki Otsutsuki first descended upon the ninja world, the ancient behemoths of the ninja world were very powerful, causing them to suffer considerable losses.

But they couldn't do anything about the old ones, so they targeted the ancient behemoths that hadn't grown up yet. When the old ones died out and the young ones were in a period of decline, that was when they would go on a killing spree.

Similarly, even if Kaguya Otsutsuki is currently no match for Akira Hatake, as long as she outlasts him, that would still be a victory.

But now, even the only advantage has vanished under Akira Hatake's power. His soul, which was so powerful that it was almost indestructible, seemed rather fragile in the face of that purplish-red chain.

"I said."

After weighing the pros and cons, Kaguya Otsutsuki gave up the struggle; she too feared death.

If Kaguya Otsutsuki wasn't afraid of death, she wouldn't have become so paranoid and delusional after plotting against Isshiki Otsutsuki, acting like someone with severe paranoia.

"But... first remove the chains binding me."

Kaguya Otsutsuki pointed to the purplish-red soul chain wrapped around her waist and integrated into her soul body, and made a request to Akira Hatake.

"Ah."

Akira nodded and casually dispelled his first skill, "Lin Gua - Worry-Free".

To be honest, when he had a physical body, the ability that Hatake Akira inherited from the hero template of Ming Shi Yin only consumed chakra, which was no problem for him at all.

However, in his soul form, "Lin Gua - Worry-Free" consumes Akira Hatake's soul power. Although he can damage Kaguya Otsutsuki's extremely powerful soul, Akira Hatake's soul power is also severely depleted.

Kaguya Otsutsuki's request was like a pillow being offered to Akira Hatake after he had broken his heart; how could Akira Hatake possibly refuse?

If the state of "Lin Gua · Wu You" is maintained for a long time, even Akira Hatake will not be able to withstand it.

Fortunately, Kaguya Otsutsuki was so surprised by Akira Hatake's sudden revelation of his ability that she didn't pay attention to Akira's condition. Otherwise, Akira's poor condition would definitely have been seen through.

"In fact, the most important components of the 'Karma' seal, besides the user's soul and extremely condensed Yin Release chakra, also include all of the user's own power."

Hearing Kaguya Otsutsuki say that, Akira Hatake raised an eyebrow.

"So, according to you, besides the risk of being possessed, the 'Wedge' mark is also, from another perspective, a large-scale 'experience pack'?"

"What is an experience pack?" Kaguya Otsutsuki tilted her head, her eyes full of confusion.

"You don't need to know that, please continue."

As Kaguya Otsutsuki's explanation deepened, Akira Hatake became even more certain of his own thoughts.

To put it simply, the reason why the "Wedge" mark seems powerful is because the person branded with the "Wedge" mark has no way to access the user's soul hidden within the "Wedge" mark.

Because the soul essence of the Otsutsuki clan is what it is, the "Karma" mark cannot be broken without harming the soul. And if the "Karma" mark cannot be broken, then they will ultimately be unable to escape the fate of being possessed.

But if the souls of the Otsutsuki clan hidden within the "Karma" mark are destroyed, then...

All the power sealed within the "Wedge" mark will become resources for one's own strength to improve; the existence of the "Wedge" mark is tantamount to aiding the enemy!

Akira Hatake's heart burned with fervor, and a crazy plan began to grow wildly in his mind.

He was extremely envious of the full power of the Otsutsuki clan!

Whether it's physical strength or spiritual strength!

"That's all the information contained in the 'wedge' mark. Now you should abide by our agreement, right?"

"Of course, I'm not like you, someone who goes back on their word. I'm a person who values ​​contracts."

Kaguya Otsutsuki's spirits lifted. "How do you plan to break me out of this seal?"

"Of course I have my own way."

Akira Hatake smiled. "However, let me make this clear from the start: given your previous breach of contract, I have decided to punish you."

"Punishment? What punishment?"

"You'll find out soon enough..."

Akira Hatake chuckled sinisterly and reached out to grab Kaguya Otsutsuki, who was lying on her side on the large bed.
