The Hidden Mist Blacksmith, forging the glory of the Ninja Sword Style!

Uehara Shu returned to his forging room.

"Use a hammer to imitate the flow of water."

"The characteristic of water droplets is that the further they fall, the faster they go. At the moment of contact, the force bursts out, and then they disperse."

"And the characteristic of flowing water is that it flows continuously."

"Not just once, but continuously."

"This means that I have to hit the hammer fast enough."

"Continuity is something that a hammer can never match in terms of, just like the flow of water."

"However, if the frequency is fast enough, it will produce a feeling similar to flowing water."

In layman's terms, it means making the metal being forged so that it doesn't feel the hammer have left.

True continuity is not required.

The necessary step is to prevent the forged metal from reacting.

"At the beginning, I don't need to use that much force."

"Reduce the height, reduce the intensity, and focus on frequency first."

Uehara Shu closed his eyes and began to imagine in his mind.

A short while later, it opened its eyes.

Uehara Osamu raised the hammer, standing less than ten centimeters above the metal ingot.

Then, it fell.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

Hammer after hammer, without any pause, at his fastest speed.

one after another.

Uehara Shu's arm and the hammer in his hand instantly became phantom-like entities; an ordinary person would certainly not be able to see them at all if they were here.

All you can see is a blurry afterimage.

A stream of water-attribute chakra automatically flowed along Uehara Shu's arm and towards the hammer.

However, this also results in the metal ingot being forged below undergoing a completely different change from the forging process of Uehara Osamu. The structure becomes more precise, and more impurities are removed.

"Water Breathing, Water Hammer, Beginner's Guide!"

Uehara Shu stopped and stretched his sore arms.

"Compared to the water droplet hammer, this requires a much higher level of physical strength."

"Fortunately, my basic attributes have improved significantly."

"In addition, I also acquired a good level of physical talent."

Suddenly, Uehara Osamu had an idea.

Compared to physical skills, I have clearly practiced more in terms of body-building exercises.

Forging, strictly speaking, can also be considered a type of physical skill.

Could it be that once I master the breathing technique, I can not only use it to forge metal, but also to fight?

"It seems that it's not impossible."

Uehara Shu glanced at the semi-transparent screen in front of him.

Suddenly, the number in the reputation bar jumped up.

Suddenly, it increased by more than two hundred.

Uehara Shu's brow twitched slightly.

"Is it Senior Juzo, or someone else?"

Chapter 83: The upcoming fourth 10-pull

"Tankori Neko!"

A voice filled with extreme anger rang out.

Hikaru Taketori stared intently at the cat taking a bamboo shoot across from him.

Upon hearing about the incident involving the Taketori clan, Hikaru Taketori and other members of the Taketori clan who were on the battlefield immediately withdrew from the battlefield.

For this part of the bamboo-harvesting clan, family is more important than village.

Therefore, when the family suffers such a tragedy, the affairs of the village become unimportant.

On the battlefield, they didn't care about the outcome of the battle against Konoha.

Even if their temporary withdrawal would put many Kirigakure ninja at a disadvantage and cause many Kirigakure ninja to die at the hands of Konoha ninja, they didn't care.

They only had one idea.

Find the cat that takes the bamboo cutter, find out the truth, and then kill the cat that takes the bamboo cutter.

They killed everyone involved in the incident.

However, before they even returned to the Land of Water, the Bamboo Cutter Cat had already come to them.

Hikaru Taketori and his companions wanted to kill the cat taketori.

The cat-like creature, the Taketori, also longed to kill Taketori Hikaru and his ilk.

So much effort was put in to stabilize the situation of the Bamboo Clan, allowing them to continue integrating into Kirigakure without the troubles of "civil wars." The Bamboo Cat will not allow anyone to disrupt this.

The Third Mizukage also deliberately arranged for ANBU ninjas to inform Taketori Neko of Taketori Hikaru's whereabouts and those of the others.

And so our meeting came about.

The cat, alone, ambushed the cat, along with more than a dozen others, including the cat, Taketori Hikaru.

suddenly.

Taketori Hikaru and the others had no idea what was going on.

In an instant, several people were killed by the bamboo cat.

Now, only Hikaru Taketori remains opposite the Cat Taketori.

The rest were all corpses, lying on the ground.

However, the Bamboo Cat also paid a heavy price.

His injuries were quite severe.

Dozens of wounds.

His chest was stained red with blood.

More importantly, Hikaru Taketori's current fighting style is a counter to the Taketori Neko.

Hikaru Taketori wields a thunder sword, and almost all of his attacks are mid-range and long-range.

If lightning strikes and hits, it will cause the cat-like creature to freeze for a moment.

It's difficult for the Taketori Cat to get close to Taketori Hikaru.

If you can't get close, you can't unleash the power of the dragon bones.

Unable to utilize the power of the dragon bone, the Bamboo Cat is still at the level it was before it obtained the dragon bone.

However, Taketori Hikaru is extremely good at using the Raito.

Why would you do such a thing?

Why betray your family?

"Is strength really that important?"

Taketori Hikaru had a somber expression.

"Lightning Release: Lightning Ball!"

Taketori Hikaru's chakra surged into the lightning blade, and the next moment, a ball of lightning condensed at the end of the blade.

The lightning ball flew quickly toward the cat.

Just as the cat dodged to the side, Hikaru's next attack came.

"Lightning Release: Feast of Lightning!"

Hikaru Taketori plunged the lightning sword into the ground, and the next moment, lightning grew like tree branches, spreading towards the location of the Taketori Neko.

"Is this the power you gained after killing so many of your people?"

"Is that all the strength you have?"

"I find it strange that you killed so many of your people."

"By sneak attacks and poisoning?"

"Or is someone else helping you?"

"Could it be... the third-generation old man?"

Taketori Hikaru thought of a possibility.

Then, he became even angrier.

"You actually chose the village over your clan? As a member of the Kaguya clan, you chose to be a dog for that old man, the Third Mizukage? What were you thinking? What were you after?"

"There is no cure!"

"If it were just for power, I would still admire you."

"But if it's for the sake of the village, then I will kill you!"

"After I kill you, I'll take revenge on the village and kill that old man!"
