I am the most popular character in Naruto!

You've learned the Palm Cultivation Technique, entered the initial stage of its use, and then stimulated a bunch of white blood cells to stop bleeding and treat the disease—isn't that just ridiculous?

It's only effective because you didn't distinguish between white blood cells and other cells in detail; the group of cells being stimulated contains platelets that can stop bleeding.

The green light of the Palm Healing Technique flickered softly, and Minato's wounds began to slowly heal.

Minato stared at Chiaki in shock. He knew very well how difficult medical ninjutsu was to learn, with all that about cells and such, and he couldn't understand what Tsunade was talking about at all.

It's obvious that this is a matter of talent. Just as he is extremely talented in space-time ninjutsu and body-flickering techniques, Chiaki probably has an extremely high talent for medical ninjutsu.

"good very good!"

Tsunade smiled happily; it was a great joy that her disciple was so outstanding and talented.

If there's alcohol, she'll definitely get herself drunk!

However, Tsunade was too hasty in her celebration...

She had clearly forgotten that Chiaki possessed the special bloodline of the Uzumaki clan.

Chiaki tried her best to maintain the Palm Healing Technique, but due to limitations in chakra control, she could not fully control Minato's cells and could only barely control some to carry out repair work.

Tick

Blood dripped onto the ground; although the wound was healing, blood was still seeping out slightly.

"No, this repair speed is too slow."

Chiaki gritted his teeth. Improve chakra control? That's not something that can be done overnight.

so what should I do now?

That's right! Wound repair involves stimulating cell activity, increasing the injured person's vitality to complete the repair process. But what if you used your own vitality...?

Just as she was thinking this, the life force within Qianqiu's body suddenly surged and spread out uncontrollably.

Puff puff

A rich life force emanated from Qianqiu's body, and green grass sprouted from the ground.

"Um?!"

Tsunade was startled by this sudden action and quickly retreated.

She dared not get too close to Chiaki in this state, lest the lock-on state of Chiaki change again due to the synchronized adjustment between the two.

Although Tsunade didn't think there was anything wrong with it, she still preferred having a younger sister to having a younger brother.

"Control...control..."

Chiaki pursed her lips, beads of sweat dripping down her face. Having gained experience in sensing chakra, she began to sense her own life force.

She met Hashirama Senju for the first time.

No, it can't be said that I met Hashirama Senju; it's more accurate to say that I encountered his life force.

Crimson armor, jet-black hair, and an overwhelming aura of power emanating from him.

The life force provided by Hashirama Senju's cells is as dazzling as the sun, and is very much in line with his personal style.

This is the God of Shinobi...

Chiaki was shocked. Compared to Hashirama Senju's life force, her own life force was like dust compared to a planet, the difference was unimaginable.

"Will I be able to become this strong in the future?"

Damn it, for a moment she understood the feelings of those brainless fangirls...

The feeling of worship seemed to stimulate that inexhaustible life force, and the life force belonging to Hashirama Senju fed back, like a person embracing a thousand autumns.

At the same time, the life force of the Uzumaki clan within Chiaki's body also seemed to come alive, tightly embracing the life force of Hashirama Senju.

The two life forces intertwined, gradually separating and falling together into Qianqiu's body.

"This power... is within me... it belongs to me..."

For some reason, Qianqiu withdrew her hands, but the Palm Immortal Technique did not dissipate at all. Instead, it transformed into a green light and connected to her hands.

The pink-haired girl closed her eyes tightly. At that moment, images of the sun, moon, and stars vaguely appeared in her mind. An old man with a white beard sat among them, holding the sun in one hand and pressing down on the moon with the other.

"The Sage of Six Paths..."

Qianqiu murmured to herself, and the white-bearded old man in her mind smiled slightly at her, withdrew his hand from the sun and moon, slowly put his palms together, and interlaced his fingers.

"Pray, lucky child."

The image suddenly shattered, and Qianqiu felt as if she remembered something, yet also felt as if she remembered nothing at all.

She simply clasped her hands together, interlaced her fingers, and silently prayed, just like the old man had done.

As Chiaki prayed, a pale blue life force belonging to the Uzumaki clan and a purplish-red life force belonging to the Senju clan appeared on her body. After the two life forces merged, a pink life force was generated.

"This, this, this..."

Tsunade was stunned. She saw Chiaki follow the pink life force and the green light left by the Healing Palm Technique to Minato's body. While turning the green Healing Palm Technique into pink, she quickly repaired Minato's wounds.

The speed at which this pink palm-shaped magic repaired wounds was actually on par with the speed at which Qianqiu's own wounds healed.

In other words, Chiaki's life force was shared with Minato through the Palm Healing Technique, which helped heal his wounds!

"What on earth happened?! Can someone explain this to me?"

Jiraiya, sensing something was wrong, rushed back from his vigilance and was completely dumbfounded by the sheer scale of the scene.

"I'd also like to find someone to explain this to me..."

Tsunade looked at Jiraiya with a wry smile, "The combination of the top-tier bloodlines of the Uzumaki and Senju clans actually resulted in this. My great-grandfather is really setting me up..."

"If I marry someone from the Uzumaki clan and have a child, will I also become this strong?"

Jiraiya waved his hands repeatedly, saying, "No, no, this is not appropriate."

Chapter Twenty-Four: Are You Teaching Me How to Do Things?

The rain kept falling, and as soon as you stepped into the Land of Rain, you could clearly feel the persistent moisture in the air.

This moisture is different from the slightly salty and humid moisture in the Land of Water; it is unusually sticky.

The Land of Rain is a basin, where water vapor gathers and floats in the air, unable to dissipate. In contrast, the Land of Water is on the sea, where the sea breeze helps to keep the humidity levels from becoming too high.

People living in the Land of Rain especially love to eat chili peppers, in order to remove dampness from their bodies; chili peppers are considered a unique ingredient in this dish.

After eating chili peppers and sweating profusely, people arrive at the bathhouse for a relaxing bath. The dampness and fatigue completely disappear, which is the life of the people of the Rain Country.

Despite the rainy and humid climate, the overall happiness level of the people is quite high.

However, the experience wasn't so good for ninjas.

Especially for Konoha ninjas from the mild climate, operating, lying in ambush, and conducting reconnaissance in a place that is almost always damp is simply too much to bear.

But there's no way around it; ninjas prioritize missions above all else. Even with chronic leg pain and rheumatism, they have to withstand the pressure and complete the mission with all their might.

"One set of reports, no abnormalities found."

"Group Two reports: No abnormalities found."

"Three teams report: encountered Rain Ninja on patrol. Follow them as planned."

"Four teams report that the investigators will be replaced soon."

swish swish

One ninja after another received messengers and relayed messages to the temporary headquarters.

"Pass down the order: patrol and reconnaissance according to the original plan, accelerate the construction of the camp, and move the front line a little closer to the Grass Country, directly pressing it within the border of the Grass Country."

Orochimaru sat calmly in command, issuing orders.

What if the Land of Grass objects?

"Do I have to teach you this? Just suppress it. If they have any complaints, let their names tell me directly."

"The Land of Rain sent people to investigate?"

"Let them see, it doesn't matter. If they want to expand their territory, they should be prepared to be beaten."

"What? People from the Land of Iron? What does this have to do with the Land of Iron? Isn't the Land of Rain's target the Land of Wind and our Land of Fire?"

Orochimaru looked at the intelligence ninja's report with surprise; it seemed that people from the Land of Iron had also appeared on the border of the Land of Rain.

"Report! Leader Mifune of the Land of Iron has arrived and requests a meeting!"

"Mifune?"

Orochimaru paused for a moment, then licked his lips and smiled, "This leader of the Land of Iron does have some guts. Let him come."

"By the way, could you send someone to urge Jiraiya? It's been almost a month and a half, why hasn't he arrived yet?"

"Yes."

The intelligence ninja turned and left. A moment later, the tent flap of the temporary command post was lifted, and a resolute man with a small mustache walked in.

"You must be Lord Orochimaru, the current leader of Konoha?"

"I am Mifune, the Admiral of the Land of Iron, and I extend my greetings to you."

Mifune bowed to Orochimaru, who stood up and returned the bow with a smile, saying, "This is truly the case. I was unaware of your arrival, General. I am deeply sorry for not welcoming you properly."

As a general and leader of the samurai, Mifune's status was actually on par with Hiruzen Sarutobi.

However, due to the rise of ninjas and the decline of samurai, even the exceptionally talented Mifune only barely broke through to the Kage level, and in terms of actual combat power, he might not be able to defeat Orochimaru, who was merely an elite Jonin.

While status in the ninja world is indeed important, one's own strength is even more crucial.

Mifune treated Orochimaru almost as an equal, and dared not be arrogant at all.

"I apologize for my abruptness. The Land of Rain has gone too far in bullying us. I couldn't stand by and watch, so I wanted to seek justice for the warriors of the Land of Iron."

Mifune spoke with shame, while Orochimaru raised an eyebrow and unconsciously licked the corner of his mouth. "May I ask Admiral Mifune, what did the Land of Rain do to the Land of Iron?"

"The Land of Iron is located in the northeast of my Land of Fire, and beyond the Land of Rain lie the Land of Grass, the Land of Waterfall, the Land of Frost, the Land of Fields, and my own Land of Fire—a vast territory..."

"I am truly ashamed..."

Mifune lowered his head in shame, "The Land of Iron is indeed quite far from the Land of Rain, but after all, the craftsmen of the Land of Iron have made some achievements, while our military strength is somewhat weak. The Land of Rain directly crossed four countries and invaded our territory, taking away a lot of weapons, equipment and craftsmen..."

"Therefore, I would like to ask Konoha for some assistance..."
