Chapter 96: Mangetsu Kizuki’s Apology?
"Okay.
The two of them packed up and headed for the direction of the Hidden Mist Village.
The Anbu ninja who followed them secretly also set off.
In less than a day, the two returned to the Forge Island.
"Senior Xiu, Teacher Juzo."
Ringo Yuyuri trotted over to greet him as soon as she heard the news.
"Yuyuri."
Next to her was Qing, who used the Byakugan to see the return of Uehara Shu and Biwa Juzo in advance.
"Yuyuri, how was the training during this period?"
As soon as Biwa Juzo came back, he asked about "homework" the first thing.
But for Ringo Yuyuri, this was not something to be disgusted with.
On the contrary, Ringo Yuyuri was very concerned about "homework."
She reported in detail.
"Senior Qing."
Uehara Shu looked at Qing.
"During this period, there was nothing going on in the Forge Island, right?"
"No. "
Qing shook his head
"It's just that Arafune was a bit busy and couldn't come over. By the way, someone came to the Forge Island and said he wanted to meet you and apologize to you in person, but I didn't let him go to the island."
"Who?"
"Mangetsu Kizuki."
Uehara Xiu raised his eyebrows.
"He wants to apologize to me? "
Hozuki Kazuhiko's performance in the Nautilus incident did make Uehara Osamu dissatisfied, but there was no need for Hozuki Mangetsu to apologize. What was Hozuki Mangetsu's identity?
Who did he represent?
From what position?
Why did he apologize?
Suddenly, Uehara Osamu thought of something and an idea came to his mind.
This seemed to provide an opportunity for him.
Under the current situation, Uehara Osamu would definitely not let the Hozuki clan use his ninja tools.
But not letting them use them does not mean that they cannot be contracted.
In the Hidden Mist Village, there are almost no ninjas whose compatibility with Nautilus is better than good.
As for the compatibility below good, Uehara Osamu knew that he would not get any good rewards if he guided the contract himself.
Then there is no need for a contract.
If the compatibility between Nautilus and Hozuki Kizuki is very high, he can completely guide Nautilus and Hozuki Kizuki to make a contract.
After the contract is completed, he can take Nautilus back.
In this way, he can get the contract reward of a good compatibility.
And he does not need to give the ninja tools to the people of Hozuki clan.
To achieve this goal, just contact Hozuki Kizuki.
Without Hozuki Kizuki Mangetsu's visit, it may not be easy for Uehara Shu to contact him, and he can't find a suitable excuse.
But if Hozuki Kizuki takes the initiative to come to the door, it will be different.
Uehara Shu said.
"Senior Qing, even the existence of the Taketori clan will have outstanding people like Taketori Shinsui and Taketori Cat, so Hozuki Kizuki Mangetsu may not be as narrow-minded as other Hozuki clans."
"Since he wants to see me, let him come."
"And, strictly speaking, the Hozuki clan is not targeting me."
"They have their own ideas. "It's just that they could have a better way to deal with this matter." Qing nodded. "Okay, I'll talk to him next time he comes." After a pause, Qing said, "Xiu, you are too generous. In the Hidden Mist Village, it would be easy to suffer losses. If I were treated like that by the Kizuna clan, I would never be kind to them." Uehara Xiu smiled. "With you, Senior Qing and Senior Juzo, I won't suffer any losses." Qing was stunned for a moment, and then he also smiled. "That's right, Xiu, don't worry, as long as Juzo and I are still alive, no one can let you suffer any losses. "
After returning to the Forge Island, Uehara Shu immediately began to study the chakra smelting technique.
Except for daily training, he stayed in the forging room.
It is worth mentioning that the Forge Island has welcomed a new member.
Haruko Biwa.
The wife of Juzo Biwa.
She was a ninja before, but she has not been a ninja for many years.
She looks a little fat, probably like Mitarashi Anko after retirement.
But it can be seen that she has a good personality.
When she came to the Forge Island, she was responsible for the three meals. .
Uehara Osamu was a little surprised when he heard that Biwa Juzo had a wife.
Because in the original plot, Biwa Juzo had defected.
A ninja with a wife is unlikely to abandon his wife just because he is disappointed with the village.
Now it seems that Uehara Osamu thinks that something may have happened in the original plot that led to the death of Biwa Haruko, and Biwa Juzo was completely cut off from the Hidden Mist Village.
"But when you come to the Forging Island, as long as it is not an incurable disease, there will be no danger to your life. "
After hearing that the Forge Island lacked a chef, Biwa Juzo took the initiative to ask his wife to come.
Uehara Shu naturally had no objection.
Such a person is definitely more trustworthy than someone from outside.
Even though Biwa Haruko's cooking skills are not very good.
But it is not bad.
Uehara Shu did not expect to find someone who can match Ichiraku in cooking skills.
Enter the forging room.
Uehara Shu opened the lid.
A wave of heat gushed out, carrying the smell of sulfur.
The magma was flowing below.
Uehara Shu took a piece of metal.
"The so-called Chakra smelting technique is to incorporate chakra into it during the smelting process. This will strengthen the metal during the smelting process."
"It is not an ordinary smelting technique."
"It's a smelting technique that can add extra strength to metal."
Osamu Uehara mobilized his fire attribute chakra.
But it was not sent directly to the magma melting furnace.
It's too dangerous.
If it is not done properly, the oven may explode.
The power that bursts out will be very strong.
There is nothing comparable to one or two detonating symbols.
But it will be much stronger.
Even for a special jounin like Uehara Osamu, it was extremely dangerous.
Osamu Uehara took a piece of charcoal and put fire-attribute chakra into the charcoal. As the chakra entered, the temperature of the charcoal gradually increased and its color also turned red.
Looks a little patchy.
This is because Osamu Uehara's control over fire-type chakra is not that good.
But for now, it works.
As the charcoal was put in, the situation inside the furnace slowly changed.
The power of chakra seeps out of the charcoal.
Osamu Uehara combined his existing smelting skills to adjust the situation in the furnace.
This so-called smelting is not just about mastering the fire attribute chakra.
Instead, it combines fire attribute chakra with smelting skills.
Time passes little by little.
Finally, with Uehara Shu's efforts, part of the chakra entered the metal.
Strengthening and changing the metal.
"Successful."
Osamu Uehara's eyes lit up slightly.
This means that in the past period of time, I have worked hard to learn Fire Escape and spent so much money and time, it is worth it.
But soon, it calmed down again.
"But I just successfully participated in the smelting."
"low efficiency."
"With this efficiency, it would take less than two or three months to complete the smelting of the metal required for a ninja sword. It is basically impossible."
"That, to me, is very impractical."
"It's like a hindrance."
"In addition, there will be impurities."
"This requires me to keep trying and adjusting."
"It's just like when I developed the breathing forging method before."
Osamu Uehara will try it once and record the process.
If you make changes little by little and the effect is better, then continue to change in this direction.
If the effect becomes worse, change direction immediately.
Because there is no exact direction, this process will not be fast.
However, after Osamu Uehara calmed down, the progress was not too slow.
After all, Osamu Uehara is already a mature blacksmith.
He has his own understanding of smelting.
A few days later, the ghost lantern full moon came again.
This time, Ao, who got Shu Uehara's attitude, did not expel the ghost full moon, but allowed the ghost full moon to come to the island, but only arranged it at the edge of the forging island.
A small wooden house guarding the dock.
"Xiu, the ghost lantern full moon is here again."
Osamu Uehara nodded.
"Okay, Senior Qing, where is he now?"
"Over there at the dock."
Osamu Uehara looked at the things on hand.
"Senior Qing, please tell him that I have something else to do. I will go over after finishing this."
"good."
Qing returned to the wooden house, walked in, and looked at the ghost lantern full moon opposite.
"Xiu has something to deal with before he can come over. Sit down."
"Okay, thank you, Senior Qing."
Gui Deng Man Yue slowly sat down, upright, and respected Qing's attitude.
This made Qing's impression of Ghost Lantern Full Moon a little better.
But just a little.
The previous attitude and choices of Oni Deng Kazuhiko made Qing very dissatisfied with the Oni Deng clan.
At the beginning, Qing was indifferent to the ghost lamp clan.
Because with the death of Oniden Gengetsu and the rise of the third generation of Mizukage, the presence of the Oniden clan has been continuously reduced, and their power has shrunk within the family, as if they were "living in seclusion".
However, the family's business is still being run, and the village's tasks are still being completed.
He just doesn't communicate much with other people and other forces in the village.
It gives people a feeling of being alone.
Qing respects Ghost Lantern Huayue very much.
But he didn't have much contact with the people of the Ghost Lantern clan.
But the performance of Oni Deng Kazuhiko that night made Qingdu's impression of the Oni Deng clan become worse.
Ghost lamp Kazuhiko is too arrogant.
The Taketori clan is also very arrogant.
But the two are slightly different.
Taketori acted even more like a nouveau riche, speaking foul language, behaving savagely, and looking down on those who were inferior to them in strength and power.
The Ghost Lantern clan, on the surface, is not so arrogant, but deep down, they look down on other people.
The current performance of Ghost Light Man Yue makes Qing feel that he will be much better than Ghost Light Kazuhiko.
Not long after, Uehara came over.
"Senior Xiu."
Gui Deng Man Yue quickly stood up.
"Ghost Lantern Full Moon?"
Osamu Uehara looked at the ghost lamp full moon.
He was about eight or nine years old, less than ten years old. In other worlds, he might still be a child, but in this world and at this time, he was already considered a ninja.
Next door in Konoha, Uchiha Itachi went to war at the age of four or five.
It is somewhat similar to the appearance of the ghost light Suigetsu in Osamu Uehara's memory.
But the hair color is slightly different.
In addition, he seems to have a much calmer personality.
"Yes, I am Ghost Lantern Full Moon."
"sit down."
Osamu Uehara motioned to Ghost Man Yue to sit down, and he also sat down.
But Gui Deng Man Yue first bowed her head and apologized to Xiang Yuan Xiu.
"Senior Xiu, I'm very sorry. The Ghost Lantern clan has done very bad things. I am here, on behalf of the Ghost Lantern clan, to apologize to you, Senior Xiu. I am very sorry."
Osamu Uehara waved his hand.
"I'm not in a hurry to apologize. You, the Ghost Lantern Clan, just made the choice you wanted. My ninja tools are not necessarily for you, the Ghost Lamp Clan, to use."
"Besides, Ghost Lantern Full Moon, with all due respect, you can't represent the Ghost Lantern clan."
Gui Deng Man Yue's expression froze, and then her face became a little gloomy.
Osamu Uehara said: "The matter has come to this, there is too much to say, it is actually unnecessary."
"Judging from the current situation, you, the Ghost Light Clan, are going to forcibly take back the Seven Ninja Swords and form the Seven Ghost Lights. This will basically declare that you are insulated from my ninja tools."
"For me, this is actually nothing to lose."
"It's just that in the future, the Zanpakutō I built will have a certain degree of competition with the Seven Ninja Swords of your Oniden clan."
"There will also be a certain degree of competition between the Death Squadron and your Seven Ghost Lanterns."
"But this is the freedom of your Ghost Lantern clan."
"There's no need to apologize to me."
"If you really feel that the Ghost Lantern Clan has done something bad and you want to apologize to me and make it up to me, then do me a favor."
Gui Deng Man Yue was stunned for a moment.
"Senior Xiu, what are you doing?"
"According to my speculation, this newly created ninja tool may be more suitable for the ninjas of your Ghost Lantern clan, but you, the Ghost Lantern clan, rejected it."
Shu Uehara said: "Then, it is impossible for me to give ninja tools to you, the ninjas of the Oniden clan, but I want to test whether my speculation is correct."
"I need a few members of the Ghost Lantern Clan to conduct this test."
Gui Deng Man Yue hesitated.
"Senior Xiu, there is no problem with the test. However, given the current situation, I estimate that I can only bring one person. By the way, Senior Xiu, can I take the liberty to ask how the test is done?"
Osamu Uehara answered.
"Just touch it with my ninja tool."
Gui Deng Man Yue's eyes flickered.
"Does it have to be a ninja?"
"No need, you don't have to be a ninja."
"Then besides me, I can also bring my brother here, but I can't do anything about the others."
Gui Deng Man Yue said: "Most of the members of the Gui Deng clan have the same idea as the clan leader. They all want to rely on the Seven Ninja Sword to rebuild the glory of the family."
"And if the Ghost Lantern clan comes into contact with you, Senior Xiu, or your ninja tools, the Ghost Lantern clan will most likely become the target of public criticism. Therefore, they will have a certain resistance to you and your ninja tools, Senior Xiu."
Osamu Uehara nodded.
"Okay, just you two, I'm just testing it."
"When will you come over?"
"I'm quite busy at this time. If you don't set a time in advance, you may have to wait longer than today."
Gui Deng Man Yue thought for a moment.
"Senior Xiu, let's do it today. I will bring my brother over later."
