Although this pair of strange gloves is a bit strange, after trying them on for a few times, I found that they are really good. Except that the breathability is slightly poor and it may be a bit uncomfortable to wear for too long, I didn't find anything bad about them. This insignificant shortcoming is really nothing for a ninja.
"How does it feel?" Xiaochun asked hopefully as she watched Shuimu testing the effects of the gloves.
"Not bad, nothing wrong with it." For ninjas who prefer physical skills, half-finger gloves may be more suitable, but Mizuki is not that type. Ninja tools with excellent chakra conduction properties are the most suitable.
"You haven't told me yet? What is this made of? The material is good, so the cost is not low, right?"
"As long as you are satisfied, this thing doesn't cost much, because the main materials are basically raised by ourselves."
"Self-raised?" Shuimu asked doubtfully, "When did our family have such strange materials? Where did you get this strange thing?"
Xiao Chun smiled without saying anything, then took out a huge weapon.
"Eh? Isn't this my trophy?"
What Xiaochun took out was Hidan's Bloody March Scythe. This weapon was quite excellent, being able to withstand Mizuki's blow that could knock down the tailed beast without too much damage, which was not something that ordinary weapons could do.
Moreover, it is very difficult to get a weapon made of this special material. Apart from paying a lot of money to hire a master craftsman to make it, other ways to obtain it are quite limited. For example, in the Land of Waves, Hatake Kakashi killed Zabuza Momochi, but did not bring back her beheading sword. The reason for this, in addition to political considerations such as avoiding criticism from the Hidden Mist Village, an important reason is that it is difficult for others to use it.
Such powerful weapons with special meanings usually have a lot of tricks done on them. Not only is it unsafe to hold them in your hands, but they may even be restricted by contracts such as psychic spells and sealing spells. Once the heir of the weapon is confirmed, some can even be directly recalled by psychic spells or sealing spells. So sometimes, some powerful weapons can only be shown off as trophies, which is basically meaningless.
Therefore, Shuimu did not hand in the Bloody March Scythe when he got it, and no one said anything. This was indeed something Shuimu had snatched independently. Secondly, there were indeed not many people who wanted to fight for this weapon. As for the manipulation of the Bloody March Scythe, such as spiritualism and sealing techniques, would this be difficult for Shuimu?
"Xiaochun, how did you do this?"
Mizuki looked at Hidan's weapon with a strange expression. The Bloody Three-Moon Scythe had now turned into a Bloody Two-Moon Scythe, and the bottom sickle blade had disappeared completely.
The toughness of this weapon is self-evident. Even with Mizuki in Sage Mode, it took him a lot of effort to break it. Unexpectedly, a large piece was missing.
"Well?" Xiao Chun said a little embarrassedly: "Didn't you say that this weapon is good, but not easy to use, and it's hard to modify? So I tried it..."
"Try? How?"
"That's it."
As he spoke, Xiaochun clasped his hands together, then slowly opened them. Between his hands, a ball of light blue chakra flowed rapidly. As Xiaochun controlled it, some tiny arcs of electricity gradually appeared inside.
"Oh, that's it."
Seeing this, Shuimu immediately understood. The evolution of the wind and lightning chakra properties is incredibly powerful. The combination of two powerful chakra properties is really terrifying. If we only talk about strength, Shuimu is undoubtedly stronger after opening the sage mode, but it is more practical for powerful ninjutsu like Xiaochun that cannot be touched at all.
"I just wanted to try out this weapon to see if it's really that difficult to handle, so..." He seemed a little embarrassed that Mizuki's collection had been turned into a defective product in just a few days.
"So, you made these gloves?"
"Well, it's just some scrap metal, and then I took it and added some things to it and asked someone to make it."
"A little?" Well, since Xiaochun said it was just a little, Shuimu didn't care. The entire blade was gone.
"This recycling of waste is not bad, but what else was added to it? A little bit of chakra metal shouldn't turn it into this, right?"
"The rest are also your spoils, the broken puppet fragments you brought back last time."
"Puppet?" Shuimu was stunned at first, then reacted. Xiaochun was talking about the puppets that were broken. As the top puppeteer, Scorpion was undoubtedly an excellent weapon-making master. The materials used on his precious puppets were also priceless treasures. In the fierce battle, those that could escape Shuimu's Sage Mode's fire escape and still remain were all rare and good materials. Therefore, Shuimu brought a lot of them with him in his spare time, thinking that they might come in handy in the future. Unexpectedly, Xiaochun used them first this time.
"That's fine, let's make use of the waste. But Xiaochun, who did you find to make it? The craftsmanship is pretty good, you can try it next time you have something to do."
"There are only a few famous weapon shops in Konoha," Xiaochun said, "This time we're looking for a weapon shop owned by a girl you know, Tenten, from your ninja school. The craftsmen there are quite good."
"That's it." Shuimu nodded. This was not unfamiliar. Although Shuimu was not the type who needed a lot of ninja tools for fighting, the loss was actually quite small, so he didn't have many opportunities to patronize it, but he still went to take a look occasionally, and he also met Tiantian, the storekeeper, several times.
"I'm glad you're satisfied with this." Xiao Chun nodded with satisfaction, and in a moment of quickness, he dismantled the weapon. Fortunately, the material was good, and he could use the chakra metal in the residue to make something else. In the end, there was no waste, so it was a good result.
Mizuki looked at the sickle with a missing piece and felt the glove that fit his palm well.
"Not bad, but it's a shame to waste such a cool weapon. It looks so ugly. I can't show it off. I'll change it completely in the future. What should I do?"
Putting aside such unimportant matters for the time being, Shuimu said to Xiaochun: "I am very satisfied with this gift, it is good, but next time, don't worry too much about such unimportant things."
"Yeah." Xiaochun nodded happily.
"That's it." Shuimu said, "Now let me see the connection you just made with that technique. To what extent is it connected?"
Mizuki had no idea what this unprecedented product of two chakras was. Without a reference, Mizuki didn't dare to experiment casually, especially using Tsubaki's body to test this new escape technique. It was too dangerous. Just look at how long ordinary ninja tools can't last in it, and you will know how dangerous it is. Uzumaki Naruto almost crippled his arm when he used the Rasenshuriken. This unexpected product didn't look like a peaceful thing.
And then, Xiaochun spread out his hands again and demonstrated this strange escape technique in front of Mizuki.
Unlike more than two months ago, this time, it was not as explosive as before, but was more easily controlled.
"Still not making much progress in your practice of the Breath Containment Technique? Logically, you are no stranger to the Sealing Technique, so why is it so difficult?"
"Well, there hasn't been much progress. The delicate manipulation at the cellular level is too difficult."
"But why do you use this technique so well?"
Looking at the light blue chakra ball spinning rapidly between Xiaochun's hands, hair-thin but extremely bright electric arcs continuously flow from the center of the ball to the outside. However, under Xiaochun's control, the electric arcs continuously cruise on the surface of the chakra ball, forming a circle of lightning-shaped splashing electric spark blades.
"I always feel that it's easy to control it this way, but the chakra flowing in my body always doesn't obey me."
Well, every trade has its own specialty, and Shu Mu also understood the profound meaning of this sentence. He has the chakra nature change skills that Shui Mu and others envy, but he is not very good at the flow and control of chakra inside the body. After various attempts, even the state of the recent breath-holding technique is still a little short of practicality.
"Do you feel any changes in your body?"
"No, I just feel that if I use this for too long, I will feel very tired."
According to normal understanding, Xiaochun is now considered to have an unknown bloodline limit. However, it is still unknown whether there is any harm in it.
"Have you come up with the comparison results with your clone?"
"Well, there are no findings yet."
The fake Jinchuriki of my fiancée Chie Tsubaki was a sample before the mixed wind and lightning jutsu was completed. If there really was a change in her bloodline, it should have been discovered.
"It's just..." Xiaochun seemed to remember something and hesitated to speak.
"What's wrong?"
"Speaking of which, I'm worried about the condition of a test subject recently. Mizuki, is nothing going to happen?"
"Uneasy? Which one exactly?"
"It's the body you brought back when someone attacked Konoha a few days ago." Xiaochun said worriedly, "Are you sure that person is really dead?"
"Of course, that person is definitely dead. What happened?" Hearing that it was White Zetsu's clone, Shuimu couldn't help but ask with concern, "You have treated it according to my method, using a splitting potion..."
"Yes, Shuimu. But how can the cells in a body that has been dead for a long time still maintain such strong vitality? Shuimu, tell me honestly. Who is the enemy you want to deal with? No, what is it?"
"I'm not sure either. But, Xiaochun, this is our home, and I will protect the village."
…
I talked a lot with my fiancée last night. In a short period of time, Mizuki's strength has improved a lot. An ordinary ninja may never reach the height that Mizuki has reached in a few months. But even so, Mizuki is still working hard and tirelessly. It seems that he is preparing for great danger. This situation makes Xiaochun very uneasy. Mizuki, who can't tell the future too clearly, can only try his best to comfort Xiaochun and dispel her worries.
