A new idea also represents a dangerous attempt and should not be taken lightly.

Just because Shuimu can use it safely doesn’t mean others can too.

Only you know best the usage method customized according to your own ideas, but it is not certain whether others can use it safely.

There are very few ninjas who can sense natural energy, and there are actually very few people who can let Mizuki experiment with it, except for a few physical clones.

The first person Mizuki used for testing was Yukimura in the Land of Waves.

He was wearing the Heaven's Curse Seal and the Caged Bird that had been modified by Mizuki. When the cursed chakra spread throughout his body and was about to deepen, Mizuki used a sealing array arranged with the fragments of the Outer Path Demon Statue as the core to directly absorb the excess chakra in his body and, under Mizuki's control, suppressed the activity of the cursed chakra.

The result of the test was not beyond Shuimu's expectations. The cursed power of the fairy chakra, which was essentially a mutated form, was simply unable to resist the power of swallowing. Even the excessive amount of natural energy absorbed was absorbed without causing any harm.

So far, all the chakra-like energies that Mizuki had been able to find were incapable of resisting the absorption of the Outer Path Golem fragments.

Next, the five attributes of chakra, the medical ninjutsu representing the yang attribute, and the illusion power representing the yin attribute spiritual power were not spared. Until finally, Mizuki took out the trophy - the small black stick, and barely measured its limitations.

At least for now, the products of Yin-Yang Escape cannot be absorbed smoothly.

This is understandable. If the fragments of the Outer Path Demon Statue are so powerful, then nothing can hurt the Divine Tree. The highest power in the ninja world - Yin-Yang Release is not something that the Divine Tree can easily suppress.

Of course, maybe the fragments in Shuimu's hand are not strong enough, but things with limits are at least within the controllable range.

"Shui Mu, what was that just now? It was really amazing!"

Yukimura, who had put in a lot of effort for the first time in a long time, was very curious about what Mizuki had done. Yukimura, who had a great passion for the ninja world, was not lacking in curiosity.

"This is my new treasure. I can't give it to you!"

To put it nicely, this guy is carefree, but in fact he is just shameless and has no idea of ​​being embarrassed.

If he wants something good, he won't be polite to Shuimu.

Fortunately, his nature makes him dislike being restricted, but he will not do anything that would disgust others.

"Hey...I haven't said I want it yet!"

Shuimu collected the fragments of the Outer Path Golem, removed the seal array on the ground, smiled and asked:

"It seems that you have been doing well recently, so I feel relieved."

No matter how intelligent Yukimura is, he cannot change the fact that he only has two years to live.

Mental immaturity can only be compensated by slowly accumulating experience.

Fortunately, as time went by, Yukimura looked more and more like a young man of about eighteen years old.

"Can't you stay one more day? We haven't seen each other much in the past few months..."

"Stop talking nonsense!"

Mizuki walked up and patted his shoulder.

"You're almost as tall as me now, and you can't still be dependent on others like a child!"

Yukimura, who has been through a lot recently, also understands that the adult world is not so easy. Looking after a small business makes him busy and confused. If it weren't for Yuhuo's help, he might have given up long ago.

"Okay, but you have to give me a raise!"

"What do you need so much money for?"

Xincun doesn't need to worry about his food, clothing, housing and transportation. He spends all his wages at his own expense. With Xincun's experience, he should not be able to find ways to spend too much money, and there is no news that this guy has developed bad habits such as gambling.

"Well..."

Yukimura was rarely embarrassed.

“I want to buy myself a house!”

Yukimura's idea surprised Mizuki:

"What do you want that for? Don't you have a place to live?"

"Others have homes to return to, but I don't. It always feels a bit wrong. Mizuki, you also have a home in Konoha Village, right?"

“I see!”

Mizuki gave Yukimura a meaningful look.

"Home and house are not the same thing... Never mind, you won't understand even if I tell you more!"

The emergence of self-awareness and the awakening of independent spirit are inevitable processes in the growth process.

"No?"

Yukimura asked a little nervously.

“That’s not impossible!”

Shuimu also considered this matter.

Humans are creatures that are not easily satisfied. They must have a tangible goal. If they can't find one, they will try their best to create one.

"I understand your thoughts, but since you want to move out, you have to show me your determination!"

Although Mizuki took care of almost all of Yukimura and Yui's life necessities, and they didn't need to worry about daily expenses, this was not raising pigs after all. Humans are thinking creatures, so it was not surprising that Yukimura could come to such a conclusion.

This is like a young child who wants to move out and gain more independence. No matter what, what Shuimu provides is not his own after all.

"Your salary cannot be increased. I'm sure you understand that your salary is already very high. I can't give you more!"

Mizuki's words were like a bucket of cold water, instantly extinguishing Yukimura's enthusiasm.

"However, I can give you a choice. Your wages will be cut in half, but you can get half of the monthly profit!"

Yukimura was a little surprised by the sudden change, and asked in confusion:

"Will I get more money this way?"

“It’s hard to say.”

Replacing high remuneration with a fixed salary plus stock dividends can also be considered an incentive.

"If you are lazy and don't earn much, the money you get will be less than before. If you work hard, you may get several times more than before."

"Okay, I want this one!"

Looking at the excited Yukimura, Mizuki sighed. This guy will become more and more like a normal adult, and sooner or later he will be able to gain a foothold in the ninja world without Mizuki.

"By the way, Yuhuo helps out here every day, can we pay her wages as well?"

"No, it's not good to push for more! Yuhuo is different from you. She is using three years of maid service to offset the cost of my medical treatment for her. In other words, she is working for me to pay off her debt. Before the three years are up, she is my servant, and it is natural for her to work for me for free!"

"Oh, really? Why haven't I heard of it?"

Yuhuo, who was standing nearby, gave Yukimura an apologetic look when he looked at him inquiringly.

"There are many things you don't know. Let's not talk about these for now. If you want more money, that's fine. I don't care what you do, but if you don't work hard, I will fire you and hire a capable replacement. Don't blame me when the time comes."
