[Special Reward: One draft of Living Corpse Reincarnation research manuscript!]
Gekko Chizan: ??????
What the hell?
Living Corpse Reincarnation?
This reward left Gekko Chizan completely dumbfounded. He quickly signaled Konan and Yahiko, who were about to start training, to stop. Then he jumped onto a nearby boulder and sat cross-legged.
This scene left Konan and Yahiko frozen. The two exchanged looks, confused.
"What's going on? What happened to him?"
"I don't know. I didn't get it either."
Gekko Chizan, with his back to them, pulled out a piece of draft paper from his clothes.
Yes—draft paper.
The most ordinary kind, with frayed edges.
The corner of his mouth twitched uncontrollably when he saw the draft. He thought to himself: Even if it's just a draft, this is the draft of the forbidden ninjutsu Living Corpse Reincarnation! How can they just give me a bunch of scrap paper like this?
He began reading the draft.
Living Corpse Reincarnation. Forbidden ninjutsu. Use with extreme caution—one misstep can cause permanent damage to the body.
This ninjutsu allows the user to transfer their spirit into another person's body, thereby obtaining eternal life. It is an absolute forbidden technique! Handle with great care!
Each reincarnation must be spaced at least 3 years apart.
The host's spiritual power must be weaker than that of the caster. Otherwise, the caster's soul may be devoured in return.
The host can be male or female. As long as the caster wishes, reincarnation is possible.
After that was a whole bunch of information that Gekko Chizan couldn't make heads or tails of.
It was all experimental data and calculations that made his eyes spin.
Putting the draft paper down, Gekko Chizan lifted his head and stared up at the sky, his heart full of emotions.
What he was holding was something Orochimaru had spent years researching. And he got it so easily?
If he handed this over to Orochimaru, he was afraid Orochimaru might kneel and kowtow to him on the spot.
But he really wasn't planning on giving it to Orochimaru right now. After all, giving him the end result at the very beginning wouldn't necessarily be a good thing for a research madman like Orochimaru.
Tucking the draft away carefully, a small smile appeared on Gekko Chizan's face.
As the disciple, he had actually managed to lead his own teacher down a path of no return. Tsk tsk… It was almost hard to imagine.
With someone like Orochimaru, who knew what would happen once he started scheming. He genuinely felt sorry for those two members of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen.
One lost an arm, the other a leg. Tsk tsk.
[Ding! Host, your actions constantly influence those around you. Since you've already succeeded in leading your teacher down this path, this system is deeply moved.]
[We hope you'll keep up the good work and recruit even more talent for the cause of not being human!]
[Ding! One last thing—your teacher did a brilliant job!]
Listening to the system praising Orochimaru, Gekko Chizan smacked his lips. Of course his teacher did a brilliant job.
A man who could master Snake summoning and body transformation like no other was already on the path of inhumanity.
It's just that Gekko Chizan's brand of inhumanity was even more… authentic.
"Chizan, what happened? Is something wrong?"
Yahiko waited for a while, but seeing Gekko Chizan not move at all, he finally approached him to ask.
When Gekko Chizan turned to look at him, he saw the worry in Yahiko's eyes and snapped out of it.
"It's nothing. I just had a moment of insight."
"Let's continue training. When we're done, I need to go check on that little brat Yugito."
Speaking of Yugito—tsk tsk—she really had taken a beating from him.
A day ago, Gekko Chizan had taken Yugito back to Island Turtle again.
Then a battle erupted over the ocean.
It ended with Yugito screaming miserably after being thoroughly beaten by Gekko Chizan. In the end, she was completely trapped by crystal.
When Gekko Chizan returned to Takigakure and tossed the crystal-bound Yugito into the room, both Konan and Yahiko were stunned.
"Aiya, Yugito's still so young, don't be so hard on her."
"She's just a child."
Konan's voice was full of helplessness. But Gekko Chizan didn't buy it at all.
"Yeah, right. If I don't teach her a proper lesson, she'll think she's second only to heaven itself. Hmph."
"This time she needed to be disciplined."
"Let's continue."
Once Gekko Chizan got into position, training resumed.
His training for Yahiko was simple—relentless Water Release practice.
He wanted to turn Yahiko into the second Third Mizukage, a man who could wield Water Release to its fullest.
He didn't hold anything back and handed Yahiko many of the Third Mizukage's techniques. This instantly unlocked Yahiko's potential.
Yahiko had always loved Water Release, but the techniques he knew were too few to unleash its true power.
Now it was different. Whether it was Water Release: Water Prison Technique or other technique, these were the pinnacle of Water Release. As long as the chakra kept up, they could be evolved into Sea Release.
Back then, the Third Mizukage used his terrifying Sea Release to overwhelm even Gekko Chizan.
As for Konan, Gekko Chizan helped her further develop her unique Paper Ninjutsu.
That included the entire series of Dance of the Shikigami techniques.
"Yahiko, is that all the water you've got? Keep pushing your chakra!"
"Konan, your paper can't just turn into shuriken. Use your chakra and your mind to turn those papers into paper warriors!"
Yes—Gekko Chizan wanted to transform Konan into a battlefield commander.
With a wave of her hand, she could summon countless paper soldiers—soldiers carrying explosive tags.
Who said only the Emperor of Shurima could command an army?
In the future, Konan could even use chakra-infused paper to create a "Susanoo"-like construct.
When that day came… tsk tsk… who said only the Uchiha could pilot a Gundam?
To make that happen, he also taught her two remarkable ninjutsu techniques:
Earth Release: Light-Weight Rock Technique and Earth Release: Added-Weight Rock Technique.
These two jutsu could make otherwise fragile paper terrifyingly powerful.
"What are you doing, what are you doing!"
"Take this—One Thousand Years of Death!"
Gekko Chizan turned into a devil instructor, unleashing One Thousand Years of Death on Yahiko without mercy.
If Yahiko slowed down even a little, he would not be spared.
"Come on! Can't you not use that technique? I've got a trauma because of it!"
"Hey hey hey! Don't come any closer!"
"Water Release! Wild Water Wave!!!"
Yahiko, desperate to keep Gekko Chizan at a distance, spewed water like his life depended on it.If he could spit out a few dozen more tons, he gladly would.
But Gekko Chizan wasn't planning to let him off. Seeing Yahiko launch that ninjutsu only made him angrier.
"Damn it! Why isn't it Great Wild Water Wave!"
"What can you do with this tiny bit of water!"
"You're taking my One Thousand Years of Death!"
He accelerated and flashed forward.
Immediately after, a miserable scream rang out.
