Naruto: I Borrow from the Future

Chapter 93 New Loan Ninjutsu

"This new technique must be Purple Lightning, right? —"

Qingye secretly pondered in his heart.

Purple Lightning is a new Lightning Release ninjutsu that Kakashi developed after losing his Sharingan in the original timeline.

Without the Sharingan's drain, Kakashi's talent means he has no shortage of chakra. He can easily use ninjutsu that consumes more chakra, or even create an earth wall that can surround a village!

Qingye glanced at the system's ninjutsu learning interface.

The Purple Lightning ninjutsu is indeed included in it.

If you learn this ninjutsu through a loan, you'll need to repay half a month's worth of chakra.

"Half a month—not too long, not too short, about right for an S-rank Lightning Release."

Although the repayment period is not long, Qingye has absolutely no intention of taking out a loan to learn this ninjutsu.

Kakashi researched Purple Lightning because he didn't have the Sharingan and couldn't use Chidori.

I don't have that problem!

Instead of taking out loans to study and then suffering the pain of repaying them, why not wait for Kakashi to figure it out and then copy it with your Sharingan!

Subsequently, Aoya and Minato Namikaze offered their respective opinions and worked together to improve this new ninjutsu.

Needless to say, Qingye's specialty is lightning release.

Minato Namikaze also possesses the Lightning Release attribute. Although his main ninjutsu is not Lightning Release, his talent in ninjutsu allows him to offer many valuable insights.

"In terms of nature transformation, the effect of lightning chakra is high activation and penetration. Kakashi, your new technique needs to be countered by the strength of the lightning attribute," Aoya said.

"As for form transformation, what needs to be improved is the ability to control chakra, but the lightning attribute is the most unstable and very difficult to control, so we need to put more effort into this aspect," Minato Namikaze said.

Kakashi nodded secretly, accepting all the opinions.

After analyzing the new ninjutsu, Minato Namikaze suddenly remembered something: "Oh right, Aoya, there's something else. Kirigakure has been demanding that we return the remains of the Three-Tails and the Third Mizukage."

Returning the Three-Tails is impossible.

He couldn't possibly send his disciple to his death in Kirigakure, could he?

However, the matter of the Third Mizukage's remains is not something that cannot be discussed.

"What price did Kirigakure offer?"

"That's the problem—"

Minato Namikaze was somewhat helpless.

Kirigakure has no intention of paying!

Qingye killed their Mizukage, and Kirigakure hates him too much to even think about it!

In particular, the newly appointed Fourth Mizukage of Kirigakure, Yagura Karatachi, has a very tough attitude and has no intention of giving money at all!

"Heh, since that's the case, there's nothing more to say. Anyway, I'm not the one in a hurry," Qingye said indifferently.

"It's good to temper their arrogance," Minato Namikaze nodded.

He also received some strange news from the Anbu: rumors seemed to be circulating in Kirigakure that the Third Mizukage had been controlled by a mysterious person using the Sharingan.

Minato Namikaze felt this was a bit outrageous and needed further verification from the Anbu.

"There's one more thing. Although Kirigakure doesn't plan to pay for the Third Mizukage's affairs, someone has contacted us privately, saying they hope to ransom someone back—"

In Qingye's home.

"It's difficult to lend money too—"

Qingye felt somewhat helpless.

If people don't intervene, it's estimated that very few people will be able to reach their maximum borrowing intention.

"It looks like we'll need to deliberately stir up conflict to increase everyone's willingness to borrow!"

Qingye thought for a moment, then looked at the system's ninjutsu learning module.

Ninjutsu learned through loans are ninjutsu that one could theoretically learn based on their own talent.

For example, if one has even a little talent in space-time ninjutsu, it is possible to learn the Flying Thunder God Technique through borrowing.

At the same time, because he does not have the earth attribute, he cannot borrow and learn very practical flying ninjutsu such as Earth Release: Super Light Heavy Rock Technique.

There's also the Super Beast Imitation Drawing, a secret technique that also grants the ability to fly. It falls under the category of Yang Release secret techniques and cannot be borrowed or learned.

Therefore, after filtering, the ninjutsu he can borrow to learn now, besides the fire, lightning, and yin attributes he already possesses, as well as space-time related ninjutsu, Sage Mode, and some attribute-less ninjutsu and secret techniques, are also available.

"The Fire attribute, the Great Fire Prison technique is interesting, but not very important."

"Lightning Release, Lightning Release Chakra Mode is also very useful — but a complete Lightning Release Chakra Mode requires sufficient physical strength, which I do not yet meet."

"Space-Time Ninjutsu, Flying Thunder God Technique—it's easier to lend money to Minato Namikaze than to repay a year's worth of chakra loans."

"Sage Mode, the Sage Mode of the three great holy lands all have to repay a year's worth of chakra loans -- wait for Minato Namikaze to lend them out!"

""

"Sealing Technique—we'll wait for Minato Namikaze!"

"Super strength, that's quite useful. If I master it, it can make up for my current weakness in strength."

Qingye thought for a moment, then frowned slightly.

Super strength consumes a lot of chakra!

If I borrow money to study, my chakra will be restricted, and I probably won't be able to use my super strength more than a few times.

Moreover, his current physical skills mainly focus on speed combined with technique. Although he does have a weakness in strength, he is not in a hurry to make up for it.

"Hmm, let's keep superhuman strength as an option."

"Illusion magic, ordinary illusion magic isn't worth learning, as for Izanagi and Izanami—there's no rush for that."

"Spiritualization Technique—where can I use this after learning it?"

"Camouflage concealment technique, a secret technique without elemental affinity, but the Sharingan and Byakugan can see through the chakra flow, so I won't learn it!"

After a series of screenings, only some attribute-less ninjutsu and Yin Release-related secret techniques remained.

"The secret techniques of the Yamanaka and Nara clans both fall under the category of Yin Release ninjutsu, and can be borrowed and learned."

"The Nara clan's shadow-related ninjutsu—interesting, but I'm not in a hurry to learn it."

"The mountain clan----"

Qingye hesitated for a moment.

Some of the secret techniques of the mountain clan were indeed very valuable to him.

For example, sensory ninjutsu and mind-reading techniques!

He is currently lacking a sensory ninjutsu.

The ability to gather information through mind reading is also very valuable.

"Let's keep this as a backup option for now."

After much deliberation, Qingye finally focused his attention on another attribute-less ninjutsu:

Dust-free maze!

The ninjutsu of the Second Tsuchikage of Iwagakure.

Throughout the entire history of the ninja world, only the Second Kage has ever wielded this power.

This ninjutsu can be considered an advanced version of the Camouflage Concealment Technique, which can completely eliminate chakra aura while making one invisible.

After using the Dustless Envelopment to become invisible, chakra-sensing ninjutsu cannot detect its presence; it can only be detected through physical means.

"The ninjutsu the Second Tsuchikage possessed are all very valuable: Dust Release, Invisibility, Sensory Abilities, Splitting Techniques, Flight —"

It's incredibly sinister!

After becoming invisible, he flies into the sky and uses Dust Release to launch a sneak attack. Who can withstand that?!

However, it is difficult to obtain this ninjutsu by lending money to others, since even Onoki, the disciple of the Second Tsuchikage, was unable to master it.

You can't exactly use the Second Tsuchikage's Edo Tensei to lend money, can you?

I wonder if it's possible to lend chakra to the dead.

"This is the one we've decided on!"

Qingye silently recited in his heart.

Mastering this ability to become invisible will allow you to move freely in and out of any situation.

[The ninjutsu "Dustless Envelopment" has been learned; the loan repayment period is four months.]

"Four months, not bad —"

The system's voice rang in his mind, and at the same time, a strange feeling surged into Qingye's heart.

He got up and walked to the mirror. Looking at himself in the mirror, he didn't need to form any hand seals. He activated the ninjutsu "Dustless Confusion". Then he saw that half of his reflection in the mirror had been erased and his figure had completely disappeared!

Qingye looked down and saw the scene behind her through her body.

He moved around the room, trying his best not to make any noise.

"That's too ominous!"

This was the only feeling left in Qingye's heart.

After becoming invisible, you don't even need to use Dust Release to launch a long-range sneak attack. If you can hide your movements, you can quietly get close and slit your opponent's throat with a kunai.

Not long after, that familiar sense of restriction came. Looking at the system panel, I saw that my "Spirit" stat had been weakened to one Chakra at Spirit 6.

"Time to start paying off the loan again—"

Outside Konoha Village.

Hozuki Akizuki arrived with several Kirigakure ninjas, but did not enter Konoha Village. He sent someone to deliver the ransom, and then successfully met the person they wanted to redeem.

"Waaah————"

When Mei Terumi saw the people from her own village, she pouted and almost burst into tears.

I can finally go home!

What kind of life did she have that year?!

He was first imprisoned in the Land of the Sea, and later, after the war ended, he was taken to Konoha and imprisoned there!

What kind of bullying has she endured here all year?! She's been starving and suffering in the prison cell, unable to eat or sleep properly, and she's constantly being bullied by that guy Uchiha Aoya!

"Remember to cultivate diligently when you get back."

Aoya patted Terumi Mei's messy hair, looked at his hands, and said with a hint of disdain, "I'll try to be much stronger next time I see you, so I can see your bounty at the underground gold exchange as soon as possible."
