It is not easy to let the energy representing one's own will replace the effect of natural energy in the curse seal. Mizuki himself cannot even sense natural energy without using the tailed beast chakra as a medium, let alone study it.

However, with a complete seal technique, even if you don't understand it, it doesn't mean you can't use it. As long as you figure out some key issues, the problem is not that big. But how to use it? This is a problem. Using fangs to inject the power of the seal like Orochimaru did is too disgusting. Moreover, Mizuki also has a lot of concerns. Without experimental subjects, he can't proceed to the next step. And the more Mizuki looks at it, the more strange it feels.

Looking at the calculation paper in my hand and the rune patterns of the sealing technique I drew, they all looked familiar, as if I had seen them somewhere.

"This is definitely a sense of déjà vu that I have only seen after traveling through time. It is very impressive."

Mizuki sorted out his previous memories while comparing the sealing techniques of the curse.

Suddenly, Shuimu remembered where he had seen it.

"Soul Gathering Formation?" Shui Mu stood up in surprise. "The parts involving the spirit and soul are so similar. It's really surprising!"

Obviously, even now, Orochimaru has never seen the Soul Gathering Array. So when Orochimaru completed the seal technique, it was impossible for him to refer to the Soul Gathering Array. Either this was a coincidence, or Orochimaru also knew the secret of the summoning beast contract, so he also made some reference to the seal technique.

This also explains from a certain perspective that the sealing techniques all have the same purpose. The runes that work on the soul and spirit are so similar, just like all flying animals basically have wings.

"It seems that I have to urge Kabuto Yakushi to deliver the Impure World Reincarnation as soon as possible. I didn't expect to get an unexpected reward."

Both are secret techniques targeting the spiritual soul, but because the ways of expression are so different, Shuimu has never considered them together. But now it seems that they can perhaps confirm each other.

"If it is really as imagined, there are a few questions that need to be verified. Orochimaru can use the Heaven's Curse Seal on two people at the same time. So, if two people use the Shiki Fuujin at the same time, can they summon two Death Gods? If so, are these two Death Gods the same? If not, what is the connection between the two? Also, if two different people use the Impure World Reincarnation to summon the soul of the same dead person at the same time, what will be the effect?"

When Shuimu thought of these questions that he had not noticed before, he could no longer suppress his curiosity. Unfortunately, there were no conditions for experimentation, so he could only wait until he got these techniques and then think of a solution.

…

A few days later at noon, Mizuki stood on the top of the tree, watching the three Genin from Team 8 completing a mission in the dense forest not far away. The difficulty was not high, just to eliminate several giant beasts. Under the influence of chakra, the probability of wild animals mutating was much higher than usual. Giantization and ferocity were common types. Among the low-level missions, this type of mission accounted for a large proportion. Most of them were human settlements threatened by wild beasts, so the mission was issued to ask the ninja to eliminate the threat.

However, after seeing what he had seen during the past two days of missions, Mizuki was actually a little disappointed. For a Genin who had graduated less than a year ago, this level of strength was considered quite outstanding, but as a partner of justice, it was really not enough. Not only in terms of strength, but also in terms of experience.

"What should we do? Team 8 is actually on par with Team 10 in terms of strength, or even slightly weaker. In a one-on-one challenge, they might have an advantage, but in a small-team battle, their disadvantage is too obvious. The golden combination of Ino, Deer, and Chou can make up for their weaknesses to the greatest extent. As for Team 8..."

Mizuki shook his head regretfully. Inuzuka Kiba's strength was not weak, but his weakness of not being calm enough made him easily targeted. As for Hyuga Hinata, even though her character had improved greatly after the Chunin Exam, the gap in strength could not be made up in a short time. Relatively speaking, Aburame Shino performed the best, but he was taciturn, and although his quality was not a problem, he often could not perform his captain's duties well. This was not something that could be handled well with just strength and wisdom. Aburame Shino still needed to learn the art of leading a team.

From this point of view, it is still a bit difficult for Team 8 to reach the level of Chunin. Generally speaking, it takes three to five years for a Genin to be promoted to Chunin strength. However, even if you have Chunin strength, you may not be able to pass the Chunin exam. It may take another one or two years. By this calculation, it is the step-by-step procedure to be promoted to Chunin at the age of seventeen or eighteen. A large number of ninjas in peacetime, including Iruka, Mizuki, etc., almost all came this way.

Unfortunately, now is an extraordinary period. It is not appropriate to spend so much time arranging these gifted Genin. Forcing things to grow is not advisable, and sticking to the old ways is even more intolerable.

"They are all family members, what should we do? Bloodline limits and secret techniques are the basis for improving strength. Aside from Aburame Shino, there is still the possibility of some guidance and improvement. For the others, perhaps they can only hope for improvement through hard training and actual combat."

However, how could actual combat missions be so simple? Apart from the tasks of hunting down traitorous ninjas, arresting bandits and mountain bandits, there were no combat missions suitable for the Genin team. Even if there were, they were mostly assigned to more advanced ninjas to complete.

Even when it comes to hunting down traitorous ninjas, or even when Genin defect, it is usually the Anbu who is in charge of hunting them down, or more precisely, the "Root" led by Shimura Danzo. The only missions Genin can take are to eliminate ordinary people's forces such as bandits or mountain bandits, at most some weak samurai and wandering ninjas. However, as long as the number of people increases, it will be a threat to Genin, and it can be considered a good exercise.

Looking at the three people below who had completed the task in a awkward manner and gathered together to rest breathlessly, Shuimu appeared and began to finish.

"Mission accomplished, get ready and go back."

"Eh? We've been so tired, let's take a break." Inuzuka Kiba, who was slumped on the ground, complained, "It's too difficult to deal with such a big black bear..."

"The most difficult thing to deal with is not the bear, but the wild boar." Shuimu shook his head and said, "You guys still don't have enough tacit cooperation!"
