The Days of Blacksmithing in Naruto World

The temple, which was built with the efforts of the entire Wuqu Village, was now in a mess, with a pile of rubble blocking the exit to the basement.

A stream of iron sand flowed out from the cracks in the gravel, holding up a heavy piece of gravel and throwing it aside. The Third Generation Wind Shadow Puppet and the Skinny Puppet pushed away pieces of gravel and cleared a passable route.

The bloated Fei Liuhu climbed out of the basement. With a "pop" sound, Fei Liuhu's torso split open and the scorpion body walked out.

Xie's originally delicate and fair face became dirty, and the black robe on his body was also covered with dust. He looked expressionlessly in the direction where Xiao fled, and said with a sinister expression.

"Ninja of Konoha Village, I remember you. Next time I meet you, I will make you my collection."

After Xiao got the Guifo Buddha statue, he used the rest function to continuously practice his Ninja prosthetic hand skills and increase his proficiency like crazy. The Ninja prosthetic hand - Firecracker is Xiao's second Ninja prosthetic hand skill to reach the master level. The first one is...

"Ninja prosthetic hand-blow torch!"

A palm suddenly emerged from the ground at the sole of Scorpion's feet, and a huge ball of blazing fire instantly engulfed Scorpion, leaving only blazing fire burning in the temple.

When Xiao was in the basement, he used Paper Man Drift just for this moment. Otherwise, just using the Psychic Technique and Earth Splitting Palm would not require bleeding.

Xiao Xiao left a shadow clone lurking at the basement door, just waiting for Xie to come out and launch a sneak attack when he thought he was gone and relaxed his vigilance.

"Ahhh, damn it." At the critical moment, Xie controlled the third-generation Kazekage puppet to form a barrier with sand and iron to protect himself, but because the range of the fire blower was too large, Xie was still affected.

At this moment, Scorpio still has the charm of the Sand Girl. Her red hair was burnt and curled up, her black robe was also set on fire, and she exuded a burning smell.

Xiao's shadow clone emerged from the ground, threw various hidden weapons with both hands to attack Xiao, then formed seals with both hands and shouted "Explode!"

Xie felt something was wrong, and quickly controlled the third-generation Feng Yingren puppet to stab Xiao Xiao's shadow clone with a sharp blade, then controlled the thin puppet to block Xiao Xiao's hidden weapon, and controlled Fei Liuhu to fly towards him in an attempt to hide in it.

But it was still a step too late. Burning detonating symbols appeared in the temple, as many as twenty!

"Boom!"

Xiao Xiao, who had fled to the mountain, turned back to look at the center of Wuqu Village. At this moment, there was a fire and thick smoke.

Xiao breathed a sigh of relief and took out the Guifo Buddha statue to rest. He had just used the paper manikin drifting to bleed three times in a row, which made Xiao feel a little dizzy.

After a while, Xiao felt that he was almost recovered, so he stood up, put away his Buddha, and prepared to go on his way.

"Did I forget something?" Xiao suddenly stopped and thought for a moment, then remembered that Baijie the White Ape had gone somewhere.

Xiao used his psychic technique and found that Baijie could not be summoned. He quickly opened the system and found that Baijie's status said poisoned and could not be summoned within three days.

"It seems that if the psychic beast is injured and returns to the system, there will be no prompt. Baijie must have been hit by the poisonous needle of the thin puppet." Xiao Xiao saw that Baijie could not be summoned within three days and felt relieved. Come and continue on your way.

The journey was uneventful and there were no accidents. It was already noon the next day when Xiao Xiao returned to the gate of Konoha Village.

Xiao Xiao, dusty from work and with heavy dark circles under his eyes, came to the Hokage's office building to report on the mission first.

Owl came to the door of the Hokage's office. The Third Hokage and Namikaze Minato were talking inside. Owl knocked on the door and interrupted their conversation.

"Lord Hokage, this is the investigation result of my mission to Wuqu Village. There is very important information that needs to be reported." Xiao Xiao took out a scroll and handed it to the Third Hokage respectfully.

"If you have any information, tell me. There's nothing Minato can't know."

The Third Hokage took the scroll and put it on the table without looking at it in a hurry. It was just a group of bandits lurking among the villagers. If there was any important information, children just liked to make a fuss.

But what Xiao said next shocked him.

"I met the rebellious ninja 'Red Sand Scorpion' of Hidden Suna Village in Uzu Village. The thing about the bandit was that he manipulated the villagers to rob the caravan, and I also saw the missing Third Kazekage, who was killed by him. Became a human puppet.”

"What! The Third Kazekage?!" The Third Hokage and Namikaze Minato were both very surprised. The disappearance of the Third Kazekage was one of the main reasons for the recent turmoil in the ninja world.

Sunagakure Village has always suspected that it was someone from Konoha Village who did it, and Konoha Village is also hard to defend. After all, unless the Third Kazekage comes forward to speak for Konoha, Konoha will definitely bear the blame.

"Are you sure? The Third Kazekage was made into a human puppet by the Red Sand Scorpion? What evidence do you have?" The Third Hokage calmed down and asked Xiao.

Xiao Xiao took out a black rag from his waist bag, which contained a fragment of the third-generation Kazekage puppet. Xiao Xiao got it during a sneak attack and planned to take it back to Konoha Village to let Sunagakure know the truth.

The disappearance of the third Kazekage is considered to be the trigger of the Third Ninja War. Although Xiao is very coveted for the huge amount of experience points that the Third Ninja War can bring, but as long as it is a war, people will die, no matter where it is, so Xiao still wants to try to see if he can prevent the war from breaking out.

Although Xiao knew that the root cause of the Third Ninja War was that the major ninja nations suppressed, co-opted, and infiltrated neighboring small countries for their own interests, while at the same time seizing the core territory and resources of the mainland from other major ninja nations.

But if the disappearance of the third Kazekage had not been the trigger, the war might have been postponed for a few years. When the owl grew up and became as powerful as the first Hokage in the ninja world, no one would dare to start a war.

Namikaze Minato stepped forward and took the rags and fragments from the owl's hand, inspected them, shook his head, and then turned to hand them to the Third Hokage.

"I can only see that the material of this fragment is very hard. I can't find evidence that the Third Kazekage was made into a puppet. It's better to let the Sensing Ninja try it." Namikaze Minato said to the Third Hokage.

The Third Hokage looked at the fragment carefully, then nodded and said. "Go and call Shanzhong Haiyi."

An ANBU wearing a rabbit mask appeared to the side, knelt down on one knee and bowed to the Third Hokage, said "yes" respectfully, and then disappeared again.

While the Third Hokage and Namikaze Minato were waiting for Yamanaka Haiichi to arrive, they read the scroll that Obi handed over that recorded the mission process.

After a while, Yamanaka Kai knocked on the door and came in. He glanced at the owl who was standing by, nodded to Minato Namikaze, and then said to the Third Hokage.

"Lord Hokage, what did you ask me to do?"

The Third Hokage handed him the fragment and said. "Carefully sense the chakra inside and see if you can find any clues."

Yamanaka Hai took the fragments, put them together in his hands, closed his eyes and started sensing.

After a while, Yamanaka Haiichi opened his eyes and said to the Third Hokage.

"I sensed a special chakra inside, which is magnetic, has a texture as hard as steel, and is as soft as sand. This should be the chakra of the Third Kazekage."

Namikaze Minato and the Third Hokage looked at each other, and the Third Hokage waved his hand to signal Yamanaka Haiichi to retreat. "Thank you for your hard work. Don't let anyone know what happened today, okay?"

Yamanaka Hai nodded, said "yes", turned around and left the office.

The Third Hokage took out his pipe, lit it and asked Owl: "What do you think about Scorpion?"

Xiao replied: "Scorpion first defected from Sand Hidden Village, and after a while he sneaked back into the village to assassinate the Third Kazekage, took him away, and made him into a human puppet. Because he had already left when the Third Kazekage disappeared, so Sunagakure Village did not suspect him."

Xiao Xiao paused and continued.

"It should be true that he said he came to the Country of Fire to collect herbs. The reason why he didn't use puppets to rob was because once puppets were used, his identity would be exposed, and he would have no choice but to silence and kill all the merchants. He used villagers to disguise themselves as bandits, so he didn't have to kill everyone in the caravan and let them go back to continue collecting herbs for him."

The Third Hokage blew out the smoke, nodded and said with satisfaction: "The analysis is very good, but your scroll says that he has a move called 'submersible brain manipulation of sand', and he can definitely use this move to steal the herbs from the caravan. After erasing the memory, there will be no need for so much trouble."

Xiao Xiao began to spoil the story: "I think the reason why he doesn't do this is for practice."

The Third Hokage frowned. "practise?"

Xiao Xiao nodded and said: "Yes, just for practice. This group of bandits robbed the caravan three times in total. The first time there were 41 bandits, the second time there were 76 people, and the third time there were [-] people. So I make a bold guess. , he did this just to practice manipulating more puppets."

"What? You have to know that the strength of a puppet master is measured by the number of puppets he controls. Even Chiyo, Sunagakure's strongest puppet master, can only control ten puppets at the same time. You actually think that Scorpion can control more than 70 One?" The Third Hokage was a little surprised and said in disbelief.

Xiaoxiao snorted in anger, Chiyo is nothing, Scorpion can control a hundred at most.

Namikaze Minato interjected from the side: "Since he can quietly kill the Third Kazekage, who is known as the 'Strongest Kazekage', then he must be exceptional. It is not impossible to control dozens of puppets. In addition, those are not puppets, but human beings controlled by him, so he should only have rough control."

After hearing what Namikaze Minato said, the Third Hokage closed his eyes and thought for a while, and then said to the owl.

"Your analysis is very reasonable. It seems that you do have the potential to become a jounin. Let's do this. I will give you another task. After completing it, you can take the jounin assessment."

After saying that, the Third Hokage took out a scroll and handed it to Xiao.Xiao was a little excited. It seemed that he would be able to take the Jonin exam soon and get the Immortal Slash.

At the same time, the system prompt appeared.

'Special task completed, final evaluation is a.Reward three skill points and a stunt: Flying across the Floating Boat skill book. '

Xiao was overjoyed. Because he failed to kill Xie, Xiao knew that he would not be able to get the highest rating. He did not expect that there would be so many rewards for an A-level rating.

Not only does it have three skill points, it also has a skill book!

The unique skill·Flying across the floating boat is a dance-like move that performs combos. It crushes the enemy with its flowing movements and the number of moves.

Owl said goodbye to the Third Hokage and Minato Namikaze, then left the Hokage's office building and headed to the training ground.

Although Xiao is very sleepy now, he is a little excited about getting new skills and has to try them before he can sleep peacefully.

Learning the stunt - Flying across a floating boat requires two skill points, and Xiao Xiao did it without hesitation. Although this move is not very powerful in the game, it is very cool.

Being handsome is a lifelong matter.

Owl transformed into a wedge pill and used his special skill - Flying across the floating boat on the mound he summoned!

Five quick and intensive slashes in succession, each sword accompanied by a sword energy, chopped the mound into pieces.

Xiao Xiao sighed. 'The Feidu Floating Boat in the system is much more powerful than in the game. If it were an actual battle, such a sharp and dense sword energy would definitely push the enemy into a desperate situation. '

However, the power of the skill has increased, and the cost has also increased. In the game, this move does not require the consumption of a paper man, but now it requires a paper man or an equivalent amount of chakra.

So, with the last skill point left, Xiao looked at the final skill of the ninja move - the stunt: Giant Ninja Thrust.

Launches a fierce thrust from a long distance, and then jumps high on the enemy it stabs.The way it pierces the enemy and then flies away is like an owl hunting.

Xiao Xiao once again summoned a mound, walked to the distance and put his hands in the starting position towards the mound, holding the wedge pill behind his back with both hands, and facing the target sideways with his feet forward and backward.

"Special skill·Giant Ninja Thrust!"

Two sword qi emerged from the hilt of Kakimaru's sword, and continued to entwine along the sword body toward the tip of the sword. Finally, they merged at the tip of the sword and turned into a spiral sword qi.

The next moment, Xiao Xiao flashed in front of the mound, stabbed the mound with his sword, and the sword energy immediately penetrated the mound. Xiao Xiao jumped high with the help of the reaction force, and landed on the ground with a backflip in the air.

The effect of the giant ninja thrust is unexpectedly great!

Xiao Xiao thought as he looked at the mound of soil with a big hole penetrated by the sword energy.

'This move is a bit like the Second Hokage's Flying Thunder God Slash, but instead of ducking behind the enemy, it rushes in front of the enemy very quickly and stabs it, and the power of the sword is also amazing. '

Although it requires a starting position, the extreme speed makes up for this shortcoming. The giant ninja thrust is worthy of the name of a stunt.

'Ding~ It is detected that the host has learned the ninja moves and the final skill of the ninja prosthetic hand moves, and unlocks the genre stunt 'Ashina Wushin-ryu'. '

'Ding~ Obtain the mission 'Konoha's No. [-] Swordsman', and upon completion, you will receive the reward 'Ashi Mingren' skill book. '
