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

Same hand seals, same chakra.

This is my first time using it.

Dae-tae felt this was a bit unreasonable.

This is a comparison between Hashirama Senju and Yamato that Ota has never seen.

The effect of Yamato using the same Wood Release technique is worlds apart from that of Hashirama Senju. Uehara Shu's current performance is not excessive.

With a thought, Uehara Shu's Water Whip vanished.

Immediately afterwards, hand seals were formed.

Fire Release: Crimson Spider!

A giant spider formed of flames appeared.

Because Uehara Shu didn't set a target, the fire spider remained stationary.

"Water Release: Rain Slash!"

Suddenly, the rain started to fall.

The area wasn't large, just enough to cover the red ground spider.

As the rain fell, the Red Spider shrank at a visible speed, and the flames on its body extinguished at a visible speed, soon disappearing completely.

"This ability to cut through rain is indeed remarkable."

"It's not that the flames are extinguished by the properties of water."

"It's a clash of chakra."

"Apart from water-style techniques, we can counter them all."

Uehara Osamu did some calculations.

"However, it consumes a lot of chakra, and it can be dodged."

Uehara Osamu looked at Ota.

"Captain Datian, thank you. I can handle this on my own. You can go and take care of your business now."

"You're too kind, Minister."

After Ota left, Uehara Shu began to compare the water-style techniques he had already mastered.

"It's easier to use ninjutsu now."

"With the same amount of chakra consumed, the power will be greater than before."

"This proves that the conversion efficiency has increased."

"Furthermore, the potential of my Water Release ninjutsu seems to have increased somewhat."

The power of ninjutsu is not actually completely fixed.

When you haven't mastered something, it's certainly not as good as when you have.

However, once mastered, the power of the same ninjutsu becomes largely the same.

However, Uehara Shu discovered that his Water Release technique could actually break through this supposedly fixed limit.

"So this is the ultimate level of Water Release talent?"

"Higher conversion efficiency."

"Simpler hand seals."

"Even greater power."

"Some water-style techniques can even be simplified to the point where only one hand seal is needed."

Uehara Osamu raised an eyebrow slightly.

"Isn't this just like Hashirama Senju clapping his hands together, getting whatever he wanted?"

"Senior Fuguki has already gone to the battlefield of the Land of Fire. If nothing unexpected happens, he will soon bring me a lot of reputation. In the time while I wait for my reputation to increase, I can use water-style techniques to communicate."

"For the water escaping techniques you've already learned, reduce the number of hand seals required as much as possible."

"This will also improve my overall strength."

Fire Nation.

A Hyuga clan ninja quickly approached Orochimaru.

"Lord Orochimaru, there's trouble ahead."

"what's the situation?"

"I spotted some Kirigakure ninjas not far ahead, possibly a ninja team led by Yagura Karatachi from Kirigakure."

"Yagura Kajiki?"

Orochimaru's eyes flickered.

"Pass on my order: a surprise attack!"

Chapter 110 Water Dragon Possession VS Orochimaru

Orochimaru knew about Yagura.

After the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist suffered a crushing defeat, Yagura Karatachi stepped forward to support a front.

Not a bloodline ninja.

He didn't have a ninja sword in his hand.

However, Yagura's strength is quite good.

In particular, there is a ninjutsu called Water Release: Water Mirror Technique.

A mirror was made from water.

Then, a replica of the opponent will appear in the mirror.

They look exactly like the enemy.

Even ninjutsu can be completely copied.

In the original storyline, Yagura Karatachi used the Water Mirror Technique to even replicate Naruto's Nine-Tails Chakra Mode.

It is conceivable that ordinary bloodline limits can also be copied.

However, this ninjutsu is quite demanding to use.

One is to make sure the light reaches the target.

The second requirement is to have a sufficient amount of chakra. Otherwise, when the opponent uses a ninjutsu that consumes a great deal of chakra, the person using the Water Mirror Technique will be drained dry.

Kisame Hoshigaki gained a good reputation by gaining the upper hand in several consecutive battles against Kakashi.

The title of Bloodthirsty Shark ranks among the top in the younger generation of ninjas.

But in Orochimaru's view, it would be a very long time before the ninja world was handed over to these young ninjas.

Currently, the people who control this ninja world are still the middle-aged and young people.

For example, the three legendary ninja, including myself.

Next up is Minato Namikaze's group.

The same applies to Kirigakure.

Orochimaru didn't care about young ninjas like Kisame Hoshigaki. The only people he really cared about in Kirigakure were Yagura Karatachi and Juzo Biwa, who had returned to the battlefield.

If they could kill Yagura Karatachi, it would be a devastating blow to Kirigakure.

The Hidden Mist Village will lose even a top-tier ninja capable of standing on the front lines of the battlefield.

In the end, Juzo Biwa only relied on his ninja sword.

Orochimaru does not reject ninja swords.

However, Orochimaru believed that the Blue Rose Sword was more important than Juzo Biwa.

"But, Lord Orochimaru, isn't it a bit inappropriate to make such a hasty decision?"

The Hyuga ninja hesitated for a moment.

After all, running into Yagura and his group was a complete accident.

The Konoha ninja army had not previously planned to attack Yagura Karatachi.

Are you questioning my judgment?

"No, I dare not."

"I am the commander-in-chief on this front. My word is law. I take full responsibility. Pass the order down."

"Yes, Lord Orochimaru!"

quickly,

Orochimaru looked ahead and licked his lips.

At first, Orochimaru had little interest in the Hokage position.

However, after the scale of the experiment expanded and more resources were needed, and after seeing the situation in the village, Orochimaru made the decision to compete for the Hokage position.

Moreover, it received Danzo's support.

Orochimaru originally thought that his rival would be Jiraiya.

However, Jiraiya had no intention of becoming Hokage. Instead, he gave all his support to his disciple, Minato Namikaze.

In this situation, Orochimaru's rival becomes Minato Namikaze.

Both have their own strengths.

Orochimaru's seniority surpasses that of Minato Namikaze.

But Minato Namikaze's reputation has unknowingly surpassed Orochimaru's.

Orochimaru hasn't personally taken action in a long time.
