I'm in Konoha, and I have ten skill slots.

but!

Techniques like the "Skillful Mist Technique" are incredibly powerful, but they have major drawbacks.

One requirement is that it must be in a confined space; otherwise, the incredibly corrosive fog will not be able to harm the enemy at all.

Secondly, the fog spreads too slowly. If the enclosed space is large, it won't be able to completely fill the space in a short time.

At the same time, although the corrosive effect is strong, it is not immediate.

Shiyu felt it wasn't strong enough.

'Great Sage, what do you think about incorporating Boil Release into the Rasengan?'

Shigure watched Naruto struggling to pop the balloons, and asked the Great Sage in his mind.

[Great Sage: Theoretically feasible, but what the host wants is to damage the enemy in the most direct way, using the corrosive properties of Boil Release. If the Rasengan is integrated with Boil Release, the corrosive gas at the moment of explosion might also harm the host.]

'An attack created by my chakra, even I can't avoid it?'

[Great Sage: Corrosiveness can be avoided, but the host cannot be immune to the impact of the high-temperature burst. The probability of hitting an enemy if thrown from a distance is very low.]

I see. So Boil Release is indeed not very suitable for incorporating into Rasengan.

[Great Sage: The analysis results indicate that the most suitable way for the host to use Boil Release is to integrate it into the weapon.]

arms?

Shigure glanced down at the ninja sword Zangetsu at his waist and drew it directly.

How do we integrate these?

Although Zangetsu is made of special material, even the corrosive Boil Release wouldn't last long if it came into contact with it!

Don't let your own knife break before the enemy is even alright.

[Great Sage: With the host's current chakra control ability, you can condense high-density chakra to cover the blade, and cover the outside with ordinary chakra. The ordinary chakra undergoes Boil Release transformation, and the resulting Boil Release heat breath has both high temperature and corrosive properties.]

[When combined with the host's swordsmanship, its destructive power is astonishing]

That would be fine!

However, Shigure felt that it could be slightly modified. The high-density chakra inside could also undergo the Boil Release nature change, but only the temperature would be increased, while the ordinary chakra outside would be used to enhance its corrosiveness.

Wouldn't that make it even more terrifying?

[Great Sage: Analyzing in progress]

[Analysis in progress]

[Estimated feasibility: 80%]

'Then let's try calculating this technique!'

[Calculation in progress]

[10%]

Chapter 74 New Ninjutsu: Boil Release - Heat Breath Blade

The calculation was very fast; Shiyu hadn't expected it to be so fast.

Before Naruto could even pop a single balloon, Shigure's calculations were already complete.

[Congratulations, host, you have acquired a new skill: Boil Release - Heat Breath Blade]

[Boiling Release ~Heat Breath Blade: Utilizing meticulous chakra control, the user performs Boiling Release nature transformation using two different densities of chakra.]

The first layer of high-density chakra erupted with astonishingly high temperatures, using the heat to enhance the weapon's power.

[The second layer of ordinary chakra produces corrosive gas, which has no effect on the user, but will corrode any object that comes into contact with it.]

[At the moment the heat-breath blade strikes the enemy, it can also inject heat into the enemy's body, causing high-temperature steam to scorch the enemy's body and corrode their flesh, resulting in astonishing damage.]

Look at the introduction.

Shi Yu immediately smiled.

This power looks incredible!

It can also inject heat energy the instant it hits an enemy.

Of course, the amount injected depends on the contact time.

However, no matter how long the contact lasts, even if it's just for a moment, the enemy who was hit by your heavy blow probably won't feel anything at the moment.

The corrosive odor can then penetrate the body and cause further damage.

'This technique! It's quite good!'

Shigure drew Zangetsu directly, and looked at the black ninja sword in his hand, the blade pattern emitting a blue glow.

One hand seal.

'Boiling Release: Blade of Heat Breath.'

Bah, bah, bah! !

Upon hearing the sound, Naruto looked up in the direction of Shigure.

His eyes slowly widened.

Shigure gripped the ninja sword Zangetsu with one hand, but the heat rising from the blade was slowly emanating from it.

The hissing sound came from the steam rising from the knife.

Shigure felt his chakra being depleted.

As expected of Boil Release, this technique consumes a lot of chakra!

The biggest advantage of this Boil Release technique is that, unlike Boil Release's Musou Strength, it unleashes astonishing power within the body.

This is an external eruption.

When Shigure used the Boiling Release: Unparalleled Strength, his chakra boiled wildly within him.

As a result, Shigure was absolutely unable to use any other escape techniques in that state!

But things are different now. Even while maintaining Boil Release: Heat Breath Blade, Shigure can still use other esoteric techniques.

This greatly increases the diversity of one's combat abilities.

In battle, one should not suddenly find oneself in a passive situation where one cannot find a way out for a while.

Although the activation of the Heat Breath Blade prevents the use of Breathing techniques, basic swordsmanship can still be performed.

With Shigure's swordsmanship, even a simple sword attack would be enough to leave a Jonin utterly defeated.

Moreover, the Heat Breath Blade must also be added.

Bah, bah, bah! !

Watching the rising steam, Shigure raised his hand and swung his sword.

The moment Shigure swung his sword, Zangetsu, heat was released along with the strike.

As mentioned in the skill description, it allows you to infuse heat upon contact with an enemy.

However, you can still consume chakra and inject heat breath even without contacting the enemy!

However, the attack range of the slashing wave released in this way is very limited.

It would only travel about a meter before disappearing immediately.

He raised his hand and aimed the Zanpakuto straight ahead, releasing his full heat energy.

With the infusion of chakra, the surging heat swept straight forward.

Although the speed is still relatively slow, isn't this just another skillful use of mist?

The heat swept five or six meters and struck the tree trunk. Instantly, half of the trunk began to melt, directly melted by the terrifying high temperature and corrosive gas.

Crack!

With a loud crash, it collapsed to the ground.

Naruto was completely stunned!

"What...what kind of technique is this?"

Shigure deactivated the Heat Breath Blade and then looked at Naruto.

"It's nothing. You continue your cultivation. I'll go find a more spacious place to test out my newly developed technique!"

Newly developed?

Naruto was stunned for a moment. When did this guy develop ninjutsu?

During the time I was away?

And is developing ninjutsu really that simple?

Did this guy develop all his own ninjutsu?

Naruto's mind was filled with questions.
