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

"Water Release: Mist Concealment Technique".

"Water escape, water dragon bullet technique!"

"Water Release: Water Prison Technique!"

"Water Release: Water Fang Bullet Technique!"

"Water Release: Water Wall Technique!"

Uehara Shu used all the water-style ninjutsu he had learned.

The result satisfied Uehara Osamu.

"When I had excellent-level Water Release talent, Senior Juzo said that my Water Release talent was no less than his."

"Now my Water Release talent has reached the perfect level, and it has undergone a qualitative improvement."

"In other words, my Water Release talent is probably better than that of most ninjas in Kirigakure."

"As long as I work hard, becoming a top-tier Water Release ninja is not difficult."

Uehara Shu looked at the target opposite him, which had been destroyed beyond recognition by his ninjutsu.

"However, to become a top-tier Water Release ninja, in addition to having enough talent and enough hard work, mastering Water Release ninjutsu is also a very important part."

"This is not an easy thing."

The importance of techniques to ninjas is self-evident.

However, in this world, within the ninja community, the phenomenon of hoarding one's own possessions is extremely serious.

It's not like you can just learn any ninjutsu you want.

The same applies to Konoha, Kumogakure, Iwagakure, Sunagakure, and Kirigakure.

Minato Namikaze was able to learn the Uzumaki clan's sealing techniques before becoming Hokage and a high-ranking member of Konoha because he married Kushina Uzumaki.

Hiruzen Sarutobi and Danzo relied on their positions in Konoha.

There are many water-style ninjutsu, which are divided into several systems.

However, there aren't that many powerful water-style ninjutsu techniques.

Leaving aside the water-style techniques of Amegakure, Kumogakure, and Iwagakure.

In Uehara Osamu's view, there are only two truly top-tier Water Release systems.

One is the Water Release ninjutsu system created by Tobirama Senju.

However, this is a water-style ninjutsu from Konoha, and given the original situation, it's impossible for him to obtain it in a short time.

Another one is the Water Release ninjutsu system of Kirigakure.

The Hidden Mist Village's Water Release ninjutsu system is divided into several aspects.

Conventional Water Release techniques, exemplified by Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique.

The Shark Water Escape Technique of the Hoshigaki Clan.

The Hozuki clan's secret technique, Water Release.

Currently, Uehara Shu can only access the standard water-style techniques of Kirigakure, because that's all the techniques Biwa Juzo knows.

Uehara Shu wasn't particularly interested in the Hoshigaki clan's Shark Water Release technique.

What Uehara Shu wanted even more was the Hozuki clan's secret technique, Water Release.

However, for those who are not members of the Hozuki clan, it is extremely difficult to gain the qualification to learn these water-style techniques.

In the original storyline, even the Fourth Mizukage Yagura and the Fifth Mizukage Mei Terumi did not appear.

Such family secrets are difficult to pass on to outsiders, just like the Ino-Shika-Cho family secrets of Konoha.

The Nara clan's shadow techniques.

The mind-reading secrets of the mountain tribe.

The Akimichi clan's multiplication technique.

These things are only circulated among members of their own family and would never be revealed to outsiders.

Uehara Shu didn't think that anyone other than members of his family could learn it. It wasn't a bloodline limit; it was just a secret technique.

In fact, the sealing techniques of the Uzumaki clan are also a type of family secret technique.

However, Hiruzen Sarutobi, Minato Namikaze, Danzo Shimura, and even Kakashi, Jiraiya, and Orochimaru could all learn and use it.

It's simply that the Ino-Shika-Cho clan still exists, while the Uzumaki clan has been wiped out.

Uehara Osamu looked in the direction of Hozuki Island.

"I remember that in the original story, the Hozuki clan was in great decline in the future."

"After the Second Mizukage, the strongest genius of the Hozuki clan finally emerged, Hozuki Mangetsu, a being who could perfectly control the Seven Ninja Swords of Kirigakure, but he passed away at a young age."

"And Hozuki Mangetsu's younger brother, Hozuki Suigetsu, became one of Orochimaru's test subjects."

Chapter 26 Who Says My Hidden Mist Has No Future?

The loquat has returned from its ten treasures.

He looked quite disheveled, with many injuries, as if he had been in a fierce battle, and in that battle, he was mostly at a disadvantage.

However, Juzo Biwa's eyes shone brightly with excitement.

"Senior Juzo".

"Repair, thank you."

Pipa Shizang once again expressed his gratitude to the original cultivator.

"Senior Juzo, how is the Blue Rose Sword? Is it easy to use?"

"It's not just as simple as doing it by chance."

Pipa Juzo glanced at the Blue Rose Sword tucked at his waist.

"It's actually very good."

"It's not that I don't respect that great blacksmith from back then, nor that I don't respect the Executioner's Blade, but the Blue Rose Sword is indeed far superior to the Executioner's Blade."

"Your forging skills must have surpassed those of that great forger from back then."

Pipa Juzo said, "Lord Mizukage said that my strength has increased by more than 30% compared to before, and if I master the Blue Rose Sword more proficiently, there is still room for improvement."

"Among elite Jonin, I can now be considered a superior being."

"I have returned the Executioner's Blade to Lord Mizukage. From today onward, I will only have one ally, and that is the Blue Rose Sword. There will be no second one."

"By the way, Xiu, have you decided on a name for your ninja sword?"

"To simply categorize Kiritoichimonji and Blue Rose Sword as being at the level of the Seven Ninja Swords of the Mist is extremely unfair to them."

"They deserve their own names."

Uehara Osamu nodded.

Yuan Xiu had also considered this point.

In the future, the ninja tools I forge myself will become more and more numerous, and may even become stronger and stronger.

After all, one's own forging skills will improve.

The average and good levels look completely different.

Beyond good, there is more.

Compared to other swords, the Seven Ninja Swords of the Mist are really not strong enough. Even the ordinary quality Kirito Ichimonji is better than many of the Seven Ninja Swords of the Mist.

The same applies to the Blue Rose Sword.

"I have to think about it."

"Senior Juzo, what's the situation with Taketori Hikaru?"

Osamu Uehara asked.

Pipa Juzo remained silent for a while.

"The Kaguya clan is an extremely troublesome ninja clan. They are eccentric, extreme, greedy, and extremely violent. They love to fight, and if possible, no one wants to have anything to do with them."

"It would not be an exaggeration to say that he was born evil."

"It's probably because they heard some information about Kiriichi and wanted to find out more."

"However, now that the Mizukage has spoken, the Kaguya clan should not come to the Forging Island to cause trouble."

"But if you ever need to leave Forging Island, Xiu, you must let me go with you. Otherwise, who knows what those lunatics might do."

"No one can figure out what's going on in their heads."

Uehara Shu was digesting what Pipa Juzo had said.

These comments sounded so familiar to Uehara Osamu.

Especially the phrase "born evil".

Uehara Osamu originally had some sympathy for the Kaguya clan, because in the original story, the Kaguya clan suffered a terrible fate, with almost the entire clan disappearing.

During the civil war with Kirigakure, their clan was almost wiped out.

Just like the Uchiha clan of Konoha.

However, Uehara Osamu could tell that Taketori Hikaru's intentions were not good.

Uehara Osamu could understand the people of Kirigakure's pursuit of the ninja swords he had forged.

Kisame Hoshigaki dreamed of owning a ninja sword of this caliber.

Zabuza was the same.

The same applies to Juzo Biwa's attitude towards the Blue Rose Sword.

However, Uehara Osamu could not accept Taketori Hikaru's approach.

Uehara Osamu didn't know much about the entire Kaguya clan, but he felt that the point made by Biwa Juzo that the Kaguya clan had mental problems was absolutely true when applied to Kaguya Hikaru.
