Naruto: My setting is above yours

Chapter 94 A complete mess

In June, the western region of the ninja world was in complete chaos.

Following the outbreak of war between Amegakure and Kusagakure at the end of May, Iwagakure immediately invaded the northwestern part of the Land of Fire, entering the Land of Fire from the border of the three countries and fighting with Konoha on the border of the Land of Fire.

A few days later, Iwagakure and Kusagakure announced an alliance, and then Iwagakure sent troops into the Land of Rain to start a war with Amegakure.

In just a few days, the situation in the ninja world changed drastically.

Meanwhile, Genma, who served as the nuclear deterrent on the Cloud Ninja battlefield, was quite happy.

While sitting at home, settings come down from the sky.

After Amegakure invaded the Land of Grass, he gained a total of 40 points.

A battle between Iwagakure and Amegakure costs 30 points, while a battle with Konoha costs only 10 points.

Because in the original timeline, Iwagakure and Konoha were also at war, but now the timeline has obviously been moved forward a lot.

Xuanma's accumulated settings value immediately reached 80 points.

All these changes actually stem from the transaction between Genma and Hanzo.

But it's not over yet.

6 month 15 day.

Just as Sunagakure was preparing to do everything in its power to drive Iwagakure's forces out of the northern part of the Land of Wind, Kirigakure quietly took over the position of Kumogakure and invaded the Land of Wind.

By this time, all five great ninja villages in the ninja world had been plunged into war, and Amegakure and Kusagakure had also joined the fray.

Compared to the original timeline, Kumogakure withdrew from the Land of Wind earlier, and now Kirigakure has also joined the war ahead of schedule.

Another 10 points of the set value were added, bringing the set value to 90 points, and breaking 100 was just around the corner.

This ignited a burning passion within Xuanma, making him yearn to march westward into the Land of Fire and stir up trouble.

Unfortunately, the peace talks with Kumogakure gradually stalled, which also limited his actions.

The west was in complete chaos, while Genma silently served as a nuclear weapon on the northern border of the Land of Fire.

Time flies, and it's already the end of December.

Konoha and Kumogakure finally reached an agreement, and Kumogakure withdrew its troops.

However, the two sides did not actually sign a peace treaty.

But for Genma, he was finally free.

Around noon on July 1st.

Sakumo's squad finally appeared at the entrance of Konoha Village.

They weren't the only ones to return; other ninja squads followed. Konoha left only a 40-man defensive force at the border.

Upon entering the village, Genma immediately saw crowds of people standing on both sides to welcome him.

"Konoha's Storm Fang!"

"Brother Xuanma!"

"So cool!"

The cheers were deafening.

Genma was surprised; the ninja world actually had this kind of system?

"They've all come to welcome you; you're so popular!"

A mountain town, green leaves, sighed.

Sakumo Hatake wore a faint smile, feeling honored.

Shizune stood beside Genma, watching the girls who were so enthusiastic about the people around them, and her gaze became somewhat wary.

However, Yamashiro Aoba was wrong; these people certainly couldn't be welcoming only Genma.

Many of them are relatives of the returning ninjas.

Xuanma saw his parents in the crowd and felt relieved.

Then he turned to Shizune and complained, "Lady Tsunade didn't come!"

Shizune whispered in Tsunade's defense, "At this time, Lady Tsunade must be extremely busy, right?"

As she spoke, she suddenly pointed and said, "Over there, there are Lady Tsunade and Sister Kumin!"

Genma turned his head and saw Tsunade and Kumino on the outskirts of the crowd.

Fennel waved her arms, her cheeks slightly flushed.

Tsunade, on the other hand, crossed her arms over her chest, her face showing reluctance.

Judging from her appearance, she was clearly dragged here by fennel.

Genma couldn't help but sigh inwardly: Fennel is truly a conscientious plant!

After the welcoming ceremony, the team disbanded. Genma and Tsunade said goodbye and then went home with their parents.

I hadn't been back for over a month, and now that I'm back, I suddenly feel a sense of peace.

A sumptuous meal had already been prepared at home.

After washing up, Xuanma started eating like crazy with his parents.

On the battlefield, they ate only soldier rations and fast food for more than a month.

Eat more!

"Don't rush~"

Seeing her son enjoying his meal, Lixiang felt both happy and heartbroken, and kept helping him by putting food on his plate.

Yu Fenglan watched with a smile, her heart filled with happiness.

After his son had devoured the food, he finally asked, "Son, when did you become so powerful? You even defeated the Third Raikage!"

Genma wiped his mouth and chuckled, "Haven't I always been this powerful, having inherited your excellent genes?"

Yu Fenglan couldn't help but burst into laughter upon hearing this.

Ritsuka playfully scolded, "Genma, you can't be so arrogant~"

Xuanma immediately nodded seriously: "Yes, I was just teasing Dad!"

Yu Fenglan's laughter abruptly stopped. After letting out a disgruntled snort, she asked curiously, "By the way, is the Third Raikage dead?"

Ritsuka also looked at her son with curiosity.

Xuanma shook his head: "No, I was just severely injured at the time, and was rescued by the Cloud Ninja."

It's certain that the Third Raikage's left arm will be crippled.

The extent of the organ damage depends on the abilities of the Cloud Village's medical ninjas and whether it will leave any long-term effects.

If the lungs are not treated properly, the Third Raikage's strength will be greatly reduced.

The absence of his left arm did not actually have a significant impact on the Third Raikage.

However, judging from the fact that Kumogakure eventually withdrew its troops, the Third Raikage's injuries are probably not so optimistic.

After chatting for a while, Yu Fenglan and Ritsuka went to work. Genma took care of cleaning up before leaving in a casual short-sleeved shirt and shorts, with his hands in his pockets.

At Tsunade's house.

Xuanma crossed the wall and entered the courtyard, just in time to see Huixiang watering the flowers and plants.

"Lord Genma!"

Immediately add water to the fennel.

Xuanma raised his hand and waved: "Sister Huixiang, it's been a long time."

Fennel smiled and said, "It has been a long time. It's so good that Lord Genma has returned safely from the battlefield. Lady Tsunade was very worried before!"

Just as Genma was about to speak, Tsunade's voice came: "Hey, I'm not worried about this guy."

"It's clearly you, Fennel, who always rush to report on his situation."

Fennel blushed immediately, unsure how to explain.

Genma turned to look at Tsunade and Shizune who came out of the room, feigning sadness: "Such a good friendship, yet you didn't worry at all, it's really disappointing."

Tsunade felt a chill run down her spine and said with a sneer, "Don't play the victim here!"

"You're not in much danger as long as you don't act so arrogantly."

"He actually dared to fight the Third Raikage one-on-one? Hmph, he'll die on the battlefield sooner or later!"

Shizune immediately scolded, "Lady Tsunade, how could you say such a thing?"

Tsunade said seriously, "If you're not careful on the battlefield, you'll die sooner or later."

Xuanma was scolded as soon as he got back, which left him feeling quite helpless.

But isn't this a sign of genuine concern? You're just being stubborn.

"There was no other way at the time, and we were indeed fairly confident that we wouldn't lose."

Xuanma said seriously.

Shizune added, "The Third Raikage came to the battlefield because of Genma."

Tsunade's expression softened slightly, and she asked, "Why are you here instead of resting after just getting back? Is something the matter?"

Xuanma stepped forward: "I want to learn a technique."

Tsunade raised an eyebrow: "Yin Seal? Or some other technique?"

Genma glanced at Shizune, then said, "Spirit Transformation Technique!"

He hadn't yet come up with a good direction for modifying the spirit and soul, so he planned to first look at this rare soul-related technique in the ninja world, which might give him some direction.

Tsunade and Shizune were both stunned.

"uncle----"

A figure flashed through Shizune's mind, and she quickly looked at Tsunade, somewhat worried.

Tsunade frowned at this point: "Why would you want to learn this technique?"

"It's not suitable for you, even if it's an S-rank ninjutsu."

Genma explained, "I don't intend to use this technique in battle, but rather because it's a rare technique related to the soul."

This reason was valid, Tsunade nodded, and then said to Shizune expressionlessly, "Shizune, go and find the scroll of this technique for him."

"I'm going to the hospital first, and I'm going to the battlefield in a couple of days."

battlefield!

Xuanma was startled, but quickly understood.

Now that Tsunade has recovered from her hemophobia and regained her drive, she can't stay in the village forever given the current situation.

After watching Tsunade leave, Genma looked at Kurenai and asked, "Kurenai-neechan, are you coming along too?"

Fennel nodded: "Yes, I will go to the battlefield as Lady Tsunade's assistant."

"Don't worry, Lord Genma. Lady Tsunade is in charge of the medical team and doesn't need to fight on the front lines."

Genma nodded, but still reminded him, "The medical ward will also be a key point for the enemy's attack, so we still need to be careful."

"Take the talismans I gave you. If you encounter danger, don't be reckless."

Fennel nodded obediently: "Yes, Lord Xuanma, I understand."

At this moment, Shizune came out with the scroll, and Genma took it and went straight to the study. Shizune followed, while Huixiang went to fetch a pot of tea.

The three sat around the table reading the open scroll.

"S-rank ninjutsu must be incredibly difficult!"

Fennel Road.

She has never touched an S-rank ninjutsu, and the most difficult ninjutsu she has mastered is only A-rank.

For example, Chakra Scalpel, Palm Healing Technique, and Adamantine Sealing Barrier.

After reviewing the Spirit Transformation Technique, Xuanma smiled and said, "It has some difficulty, but it doesn't seem too difficult at the moment."

"In simple terms, the Spirit Transformation Technique is the combination of spiritual power and chakra, which transforms the spirit into a spiritual body that separates from the physical body."

"You can also understand it as the soul and chakra combining to form a spirit body, which then acts independently of the physical body."

Shizune asked, "But how can one—well, become aware of one's own soul?"

"We only have knowledge of spiritual power right now. As for the soul, it only appears after a person dies, right? And once the soul leaves the body after death, it enters the Pure Land."

Genma snapped his fingers and laughed, "Shizune, you've hit the nail on the head."

"The first difficulty of this technique is the soul."

"The human soul, or rather the spirit, exists in relation to the physical body. As ninjas, we are already very skilled in using our spiritual power."

"But people have a very vague concept of the soul, so what exactly is the soul?"

"First of all, I think we should change the name to 'soul entity'!"

A soul or spirit?

Silent and Fennel seemed lost in thought.

Xuanma explained, "Simply put, it's about gathering our spiritual will to form a physical body—that's the soul, or simply the soul!"

"If you understand it from the perspective of Yin Dun (a form of martial arts), it might be easier for you."

Silent and Fennel's eyes lit up upon hearing this.
