I teach kendo in the ninja world

clang!

clang!

clang!

The continuous sound of gold and iron chiming one after another, as if playing a piece of music with strange rhythm.

When Araki stepped into the foundry of the Ghost Lantern Clan, the first thing he saw was a few middle-aged men with white hair and strong muscles. They wielded large or small hammers in their hands and hit the iron felt again and again. above.

Their white hair is not due to old age, but the normal hair color of the Ghost Lantern clan.

Araki looked around and saw the familiar figure with white hair and beard in a rather empty corner.

"Senior Liuyue!"

He walked over quickly and called softly.

"Oh, it's little Araki here."

Gui Deng Liuyue turned around and glanced at him briefly, then quickly turned back and continued staring at the mysterious pool in front of her.

Seeing that he was so focused and unwilling to be disturbed, Araki did not immediately ask, but also moved closer to the pool to see what it was that the current chief caster of the Ghost Lantern family could see. So unblinking.

He still vaguely remembered that when he came here before, what was placed in the water refining pond was his wind sword and the Thunder God Sword he brought back from Konoha.

But this time, after leaving the Mizukage Building, the people from the Ghost Light Family specially sent a message to him to come over quickly. Could it be that his new sword has been forged?

With a little expectation and joy, Araki stretched his neck and looked ahead.

Ok……

In the middle of the slightly turbid water, an unknown object about the size of a knuckle floated.

Its color is intertwined with green and gold, but it does not appear messy. Instead, it is based on cyan, with faint gold patterns like flying feathers and water waves outlined on it, giving people an ethereal but profound and extraordinary feeling. .

However, no matter how extraordinary this small object is, Araki doesn't care. What he wants to know most now is...

"Where is my sword?"

He looked at the empty pool outside and murmured to himself: "Where are my two big swords? Why are they missing? Could it be..."

At this time, he didn't care about whether he would disturb Ghost Light Liuyue. The reason why he was able to let Samehada go out happily was because he still had his own sword to use, wasn't it?

If something unexpected happened, could he be allowed to evolve directly to the state of "without a sword in his hand"?

"Uncle Liuyue, is my sword ready to be taken out? Where is it? Show it to me quickly!"

He shook Gui Deng Liuyue's arm, with a subtle prayer in his tone.

However, in this world, whatever you are afraid of will come to you.

After Guideng Liuyue heard Araki's question, he pointed to the pool in front of him with his chin: "Well, isn't this right here?"

a bolt from the blue!

Although Araki also thought about the worst outcome, when the fact was really before his eyes, he still collapsed a little.

"No, my sword is so long, why did it become like this?"

Araki raised his hands, gestured a distance of more than one meter, and asked.

"It's a long story..."

Gui Deng Liuyue sighed and stroked the beard on his chin, "As you can see, we originally wanted to use this water refining pond to combine the core of the Thunder God's Sword with the Wind Sword in a softer way. The sword body is integrated into one, giving it the blessing power of the dual attributes of wind and thunder.”

He pointed at the patterns on the almost unknown object.

"Originally, the final form we were looking forward to was for the thunder stone to be decomposed and thunder patterns similar to this to appear on the blade of the wind sword. That would be considered the recasting was completed. But we never expected that we would finally get The result was exactly the opposite! Before the Thunder Stone could be decomposed, the Wind Sword disintegrated first, so this is what you see now."

Gui Deng Liuyue spread his hands: "The carrier of the power of wind and thunder has changed from the original wind sword to the current thunder stone. In a sense, although it is a bit unexpected, it can't be regarded as a complete failure, right? Ah Ha ha……"

"You can't be considered a ghost!"

Araki said frantically, "What I want is a sword, a sword! This thing of yours is too small for me to use as a hidden weapon. How can I use it against my enemy?!"

"Oh, you don't have to worry about this issue."

When Gui Deng Liuyue heard this, a smile appeared on his wrinkled old face, "You also know how to use the Thunder God's Sword. This thing is just missing a hilt. There is no problem in cutting people."

"really?"

Araki was suspicious.

After experiencing the ups and downs of his emotions just now, he realized that he couldn't actually believe everything the swordsmith said.

You might think he was swearing by his words, but in fact he was just doing an experiment.

What did Gui Deng Qianyue tell him back then?

If you want to repair the hidden dangers of the Wind Sword, you only need to get the Thunder God Sword and recast it together!

The results of it?

That's it!

"Of course, I'm a professional in this area, you have to trust me!"

Ghost Deng Liuyue patted his chest and saw that Araki still looked dubious, so he raised his eyebrows and shouted to the side: "Wigeyue! You kid, quickly bring me some high-end materials for making sword hilts!"

"okay!"

After agreeing there, Gui Deng Liuyue said to Araki: "Wait, I will let you see with your own eyes whether it is true or false right away!"

After a while, the materials were brought.

Gui Deng Liuyue took out the small piece of golden-green object from the water refining pond and started his action.

The most complete sword hilt usually consists of three parts.

They are the main body of the hilt for shaking hands, the sword grid for the hand guard, and the head at the end for tying the sword tassel.

But for ninjas who value practicality, things like sword spikes are completely unnecessary.

Even the sword grid used to protect the hands was omitted by Gui Deng Liuyue.

After some operations, he handed Araki a flat elliptical cylindrical object about two palms long.

The hilt of this sword is light green in color as a whole, and looks like gold but not gold, and looks like wood but not wood. It is hard to tell what material it is made of.

The piece of gold and green material was inlaid exactly in the middle, and the edges were so tight that no trace of inlay could be seen at all.

It's like there are some patterns outlined in gold in the middle of the sword hilt.

"Just place your palm against the middle part and inject chakra into it."

Ghost Deng Liuyue said.

Araki followed his words, raised the hilt of the sword flat, and tried to slowly inject his own chakra.

bass!

A soft sound sounded like a sword being drawn out of its sheath, and a blade of light spat out in response.

This light blade is as thin as a cicada's wing, transparent in color, stable and sharp, and its length can be adjusted according to the amount of chakra he injects.

Even when he intentionally changes the properties of the chakra injected into it, the blade itself changes color.

He gently swung his sword across the iron felt, but no figure came out. Araki didn't even feel much resistance in his hands, and the bevel of a triangular piece fell to the ground with a "clang".

It can be said that it is like cutting iron into clay.

"How's it going? Old man, I didn't lie to you, did I?"

Seeing Araki's face turn from cloudy to clear, Ghost Deng Liuyue immediately stroked his beard and started laughing.

At this time, Araki repeatedly experimented with the changes in the blade in his hands, and he couldn't put it down more and more.

The slight dissatisfaction he had just now had already been thrown out of the window.

In fact, before coming here, Araki had also thought about what kind of sword he wanted.

Is it an ordinary long sword similar to the original one?

Or a heavy sword like [Thunder's Wrath·Wind Chaser's Blessing]?

Or maybe a big sword like [Black Sword Night]?

After thinking about it, it seems that each has its own advantages and disadvantages.

Now it seems that a sword that can be changed at will like the current one may also be a good choice.

And the weapon is only the size of a sword hilt, making it easier to carry.

Araki put away the hilt of his sword, turned around and walked out, saying, "Thank you, Uncle Liuyue!"

"Wait a minute, you haven't given this sword a name yet?"

Gui Deng Liuyue shouted loudly from behind.

Hearing this, Araki quickly quickened his pace: "I'll tell you when I think about it!"

……

After leaving the clan of the Ghost Lantern clan, Araki returned home and found the Red Sand Scorpion playing with the puppet parts.

Well, that's right, for the convenience of supervision, Scorpion now lives in his home.

"Let's go, I'll take you to pick out puppet materials today!"

Xie's face lit up when he heard this, and then asked: "When will you return the body of the Third Mizukage to me? I haven't finished transforming it yet."

"Ah ha ha……"

Araki smiled awkwardly, "Well... how should I put it, it's not possible these days. After all, he is Mizukage. Even if he dies, we can't just ignore him. We have to bury him in the standard of a shadow. But don't worry, I have already I have agreed with the Yondaime that I will help you steal it out when the time comes. But you have to remember to give him a different face when the time comes, so that no one can recognize him at a glance."

"This is no problem. It's just a face change. It's not difficult."

Xie agreed readily, "Besides, the Third Mizukage himself doesn't have any signature secret techniques or blood succession limits. I mainly like his Wood Release. When the time comes, I will just say that he is a ninja of Konoha, so I won't be exposed." of."

"That's good, let's put this matter aside for now, let's go together to select your Konoha Ten People today!"

Under the leadership of Araki, the two came to the headquarters of the Intelligence Torture Department.

"Hello, I am Jounin Araki. Where is the body of the Konoha ninja you gathered here? Take us to see it."

Araki said to the ninja inside.

The corpses of ninjas are an important source of intelligence. The ninjas in the Torture Department not only torture the living, they can also torture the dead.

There are dedicated personnel in Kirigakure Village who are responsible for gathering the corpses of both sides on the battlefield when the war is not tense, and then sending those belonging to Konoha here to dig up secrets.

"Lord Araki!"

When the ninja in charge saw Araki, he quickly stood up and saluted.

Although it had only been half an afternoon, Araki's identity now was completely different from before.

Several important contents of the morning meeting have already leaked out. As the most trusted right arm of the incoming Fourth Generation Mizukage and in charge of the most terrifying force in Kirigakure Village, Araki is undoubtedly a real big shot in the eyes of all Kirigakure ninjas. .

"plz follow me."

After saluting, the man glanced at Xie curiously, but because of Araki, he didn't ask any more questions and immediately led the way inside.

……

……

PS: Well, let’s collect the name of this sword. This will not be the protagonist’s final weapon, but it will be used for a long time.

I don't feel very satisfied with the names I thought of before, so I'll brainstorm with everyone.

If there is something that stands out to me, use it. If not, just downplay the name of the sword.
