Naruto: The villain template of me is regarded as the savior.

After explaining everything to the people present at the meeting, including an overview of strategic goals, force deployment plans, tactics and weapons research and development, intelligence and reconnaissance, logistics support and supply...

The first Dawn high-level meeting, which Kumokawa jokingly called the Second Ninja World War Operations Meeting, has come to an end.

But when several people left one after another with their own thoughts and complicated ideas, Yunchuan, who had returned to his seat, called out to Leyou, who was at the back: "Leyou, please stay for a moment."

Hearing this, Le You, who had already stood up, sat down again subconsciously. The old man turned his head to look at Yun Chuan, scratched his head in confusion and said, "Master Yun Chuan, do you have any other instructions?"

At this moment in the conference room, a dim light shone in from behind Yunchuan, dispelling the dull and cold atmosphere.

Apart from Leyou, Xiaonan stood behind Yunchuan very obediently. Yahiko, who originally wanted to leave with Qiuyu but was pulled by Xiaonan's sleeve, scratched his head.

"Xonan."

Without answering Leyou's doubts, Yunchuan looked at Xiaonan behind him and asked with a smile: "How is the development of the God's Paper Art going?"

Xiaonan was stunned for a moment as she didn't expect to hear her own name suddenly, but after meeting those blue eyes, she reacted instantly.

He suppressed the throbbing in his heart that had been suppressed for a long time due to hard training, and said in a clear voice: "The production method of the detonating talisman is very perfect, and it is very suitable for my secret technique. I have mastered it now."

Yahiko's expression was somewhat confused, but Leyou seemed to have thought of something, with a look of astonishment on his old face.

Looking at the girl who was the most "ordinary" among the three little ones he had picked up, Yunchuan pointed at the paper flowers in the vase in front of him and said with a smile, "Try it."

"Yes."

As if he realized something, Xiaonan became a little excited. He took a deep breath and formed seals with his hands very skillfully.

As a small amount of chakra flowed out, it established a connection with the paper flower frame in the vase.

Kaka! Click!

The paper flower gradually floated up from the vase, quickly spread out into a piece of paper in the air, and then automatically changed and folded into a paper crane.

Strange black lines gradually appeared and extended on the surface of the paper crane like vines.

In less than a minute, a detonating talisman with the word "explosion" written on it...

No, it should be said that a "detonating flower" with the word "explosion" written on its surface appeared out of thin air and was slightly suspended in the air.

squeak! !

Leyou stood up suddenly, and the chair scraped across the floor, making a harsh noise.

"You..." He looked at Xiaonan in disbelief. Looking at the girl, his whole old face turned red. He said in disbelief, "After you mastered our detonating talisman production formula, you can directly 'draw' the detonating talisman?!"

Why are detonating tags so expensive that even a jonin has to use them sparingly?

On the one hand, it is because detonating tags are classified as "strategic weapons". Note that they are "strategic weapons" rather than "tactical weapons".

All conventional weapons can be considered tactical weapons, but not all tactical weapons are strategic weapons.

Strategic weapons are usually used to carry out strategic strikes and are capable of delivering devastating blows to the enemy's strategic deep targets or the enemy's political, economic centers, military and industrial bases, arsenals, etc.

These weapons usually have enormous destructive power, and have the function and ability to deter and destroy the enemy. They also have a strategic restraining effect on the enemy and can affect the entire course and outcome of the war.

Strictly speaking, the tailed beasts are the biggest "strategic weapons" and an important factor in the strategic balance between countries.

Therefore, for every country, detonating tags are good things that must be accumulated. Even if they are not used in non-war periods, they will still be purchased in large quantities. The supply is insufficient to meet the demand, so the price will naturally be high.

On the other hand, there are not many people who can make detonating tags, and the production of detonating tags involves sealing techniques, which only a few elite ninjas can master.

Of course, the "cloth binding technique" like the Sand Village's, which wraps the enemy with cloth and then seals the enemy with a sealing talisman, should not be called a sealing technique. If the Uzumaki clan heard it, they would easily laugh their heads off.

The only content in "The Art of Binding" that actually involves sealing techniques is the sealing talisman used to seal the enemy's chakra.

The "detonating talisman" can also be considered a type of "sealing talisman".

It is necessary to prepare special chakra paper and drawing tools in advance, and then rely on one's own profound chakra control ability, combined with specific seals, spells and rituals, after specific processing and sealing steps, the detonating talisman can have the ability to explode.

Even for an expert who specializes in making detonating talismans, even with the most advanced detonating talisman-making technology in their Yangyan Village, it would take half an hour to successfully make a complete low-power detonating talisman.

But this girl in front of me can "draw" the detonating talisman at will without any special paper and ink or any preparation? !

This perfectly fits Leyou’s original “fantasy” about the “detonating talisman production technique”!

"You, do you know what this means?"

Leyou took a few steps forward, looked at Xiaonan with burning eyes, and said excitedly: "If you can cooperate with the experiment..."

"babble!"

Xiaonan was frightened by Leyou's performance. He subconsciously took a few steps back and hid behind Yunchuan, pinching the corner of his clothes and carefully sticking his head out.

"Ahem, don't be afraid, this old man is just like that."

Yunchuan touched Xiaonan's head to comfort her a little, then looked at Leyou, who was so excited that his squinting eyes widened, and said, "Leyou, don't be so excited, sit down and talk."

"……Yes."

Leyou finally looked at Xiaonan with fanatical eyes, then nodded and sat down.

Yunchuan handed Jiyun in his arms to Xiaonan, and Xiaonan subconsciously took it and held it in her arms. The furry feeling made her heart soften, and a smile involuntarily appeared on her timid face.

"Meow."

Jiyun opened his sleepy heterochromatic cat eyes, stretched out his cat paws and patted Xiaonan's arm, then closed his eyes again as if to comfort her, not caring at all that his pillow had been replaced by someone else.

"Konan's abilities and secret techniques are quite special, and she has a very good talent in ninjutsu. So in terms of developing her abilities, I didn't ask her to give up studying chakra and ninjutsu like the others."

Yunchuan withdrew his gaze from Xiaonan behind him, looked at Leyou in front of him with burning eyes and said: "Although I know something about chakra and ninjutsu, it's not in-depth, so I can only give her some advice."

"Leyou, can you see the principle behind the technique that Xiaonan is using?"

Hearing this, Le You's eyes flickered slightly, and he pondered, "It seems that it should be due to her superb control and use of chakra?"

"By injecting chakra into the paper and attaching it to its surface, the paper can be transformed into a tough material similar to chakra paper. It should be possible to transform it into weapons, armor, and traps of various forms and functions?"

As he was talking, Le You couldn't help but sighed, "Master Yunchuan, you made the right decision not to let this child specialize in swordsmanship and breathing techniques like others. Otherwise, her talent would have been buried."

"Flexible plasticity, strong practicality, and even disguise. He is simply a natural auxiliary ninja. I have never seen such a way of controlling and using chakra. It is really unique and exquisite."

At this point, he looked at Yunchuan with some curiosity and asked, "Master Yunchuan, were you the one who inspired her to develop this secret technique that can perfectly utilize and give full play to her own strengths and talents? Also, why is it the 'paper crane'?"

Yunchuan shook his head, smiled and touched Xiaonan's lowered head, and said frankly: "It has little to do with me. It's mainly because Xiaonan likes origami and accidentally discovered her talent. I just reminded her a little bit about the direction of developing her ability when she came to me."

"The fluttering, folding, unfolding, and deformation of paper are the basis, and the hardness, sharpness, and toughness of paper are the advanced ones. The subsequent ability development and application are logical, whether it is simulation, camouflage, shielding, aggregation, combination..."

Hearing Yunchuan say this, Xiaonan, with her head lowered, had her face flushed red.

In fact, when I was folding paper cranes for Brother Yunchuan, I felt that the quality of paper in the Rain Country was too poor. Then I remembered the chakra refining technique I had learned, and I suddenly had the idea of ​​attaching chakra to paper.

Thinking of this, Xiaonan looked up with his eyes drooped, as if he could see the paper flower above his head.

This was the paper flower that she had given to Yunchuan at the beginning. Afterwards, Yunchuan returned it to her along with the chakra refining technique. He did not let her insert it directly into her hair, but allowed her to keep it attached to her head through the control of chakra.

At that time, she didn't know the significance of this matter. She simply thought that Brother Yunchuan didn't like the paper flowers she gave him and was afraid that she would not want to take back the gift so he made an excuse.

After being frustrated for a while, she thought about practicing chakra refining techniques while folding some other things.

Later, she happily went to find Brother Yunchuan holding the paper cranes. When he asked her why these paper cranes were a little different, she realized what a big thing she had done unintentionally.

This was also the purpose of Yunchuan sending the paper flower back. It would be more accurate to say that she discovered her talent under Yunchuan's guidance rather than discovering it herself.

When Yahiko and Nagato went out with Kumokawa to gain experience, she was left in Dawn City but did nothing. Instead, she stayed in her room, developing and extending this secret technique according to the suggestions given by Kumokawa.

Origami requires meticulousness, patience and concentration, not to mention folding it by controlling chakra.

It felt like folding paper with invisible hands. That feeling could drive a person crazy, but it also made her temperament more meticulous, calm and absorbed.

"Paper is a free thing. It can hold anything and is not restricted. But paper is still paper after all. It cannot withstand fire or water. The only problem with this technique is that its lethality is too low."

As if he had thought of something, Yunchuan couldn't help but laugh and said, "I was originally planning to give some detonating talismans to Xiaonan to use, and let her mix them into ordinary paper to slightly make up for the shortcomings of her abilities, but I didn't expect..."

Le You understood instantly and also grinned: "But I didn't expect that the detonating talisman production technique developed by our Yangyan Village is so suitable for this girl."

Seeing that he had found a reason for himself, Yunchuan could only smile and nod.

It's impossible to say that he had already guessed and coveted their detonating talisman production formula before going to Yangyan Village, and then exchanged this formula from Buzhou and gave it to Xiaonan as a gift, right?

"That's why I left you alone."

Yunchuan coughed lightly, looked at Xiaonan beside him, and said in a gentle tone: "Xiaonan, during this period of time, you should go back to the weapons research department with Leyou and try to optimize and develop your abilities."

Hearing this, Xiaonan understood that he wanted to develop his abilities. This made Xiaonan, who had always been left alone, pursed her lips and suppressed the little excitement in her heart.

Although he was still a little afraid of the old man, he nodded obediently, looked at Leyou and said with a crisp smile: "Grandpa Leyou, please take care of me in the future."

"Oh, good, good! Good boy!"

Le You's old face was almost smiling like a chrysanthemum. He patted his chest and said confidently: "Don't worry, I'm here to make sure you don't get hurt. I can also train you to be a 'humanoid detonating talisman production girl'!"

Hearing this, Xiaonan's smile gradually became polite yet awkward.

Humanoid Explosive Talisman Production Girl?

What an ugly name.

"Remember what you said." Yunchuan nodded at Leyou with a smile and said jokingly, "If something happens to this child, your entire equipment research and development department will be punished."

Konan and Yahiko behind him could only hear his smiling tone, but Leyou was looking into those dark blue eyes that were completely devoid of smile.

He instantly realized that Lord Yunchuan was jokingly reminding him of the importance of this girl. He was immediately startled and hurriedly assured: "Please rest assured, even if my old bones are burned to ashes and all those little bastards in the R&D department are killed, I will never let this child get hurt in our territory!"

"Well, I believe you."

Yunchuan nodded with an unchanged smile, took the black cat Jiyun from Xiaonan's arms, and said, "You can go now, remember to be safe."

"Okay." Xiaonan looked at him one last time, then left with Leyou.

In the entire conference room, only Kumokawa and the dazed Yahiko were left.

Yahiko is still stunned by Konan's sudden change.

Some time ago, after returning from Yanghe Village in Mountain Country, he went to look for Konan, and saw Konan still folding paper in her own room. He thought that she was abandoned by the boss because of her poor talent.

Yahiko tried to comfort Konan at that time, but got no response, only a strange look from Konan.

When he was kicked out, he was still scratching his head, wondering what that familiar look meant.

Now Yahiko finally knew.

That look was the same "look" that Nagato had given him before.

That's the look you give to a fool.

"Come on, brat, it's your turn next."

Kumokawa stood up, patted Yahiko on the head to wake him up, and smiled faintly, "I'll take you to meet some old friends."

"Eh? Old friend? Or some other?" Yahiko rubbed his head for a moment, then blurted out, "Where are we meeting?"

Putting Jiyun on his shoulder, Yunchuan stretched and yawned, "Of course, we're going to Valhalla."

“Oh, Hall of Heroes…”

Yahiko repeated something in a muttered tone, then his eyes suddenly widened in shock, "Hall of Valor?!"
