Chapter 92 - Chapter 92 -- Artificial Spirit Bone

[[[330ch of this novel on my patreon]]]

"Of course."

Li Rong answered casually, yet those two simple words instantly tightened the hearts of the three Sannin.

"Our shop doesn't just sell attribute Spirit Bones," he continued evenly. "We also sell Bloodline Spirit Bones—ones that allow a Ninja to directly master the corresponding Bloodline Limit after absorption."

The moment the phrase Bloodline Spirit Bone fell, the atmosphere at the barbecue table froze.

Orochimaru's pupils shrank.

Jiraiya stiffened mid-bite.

Even Tsunade—who had looked half-dead since arriving—snapped her head up.

"Do you have Wood Release Spirit Bones?" Tsunade asked sharply.

Li Rong didn't answer.

Instead, he tilted his head slightly.

Bi Ji and Ye Leng Leng immediately understood.

The two raised their hands at the same time.

Crack—

Two branches burst straight through the floorboards, twisting upward like living serpents. In the blink of an eye, they thickened into two small trees. Lush vitality surged as life energy poured in. Leaves unfurled, flowers bloomed, and fruits rapidly formed.

Within moments, ripe apples hung heavy on the branches.

The branches bent obediently, stopping right in front of Orochimaru, Jiraiya, and Tsunade—each apple placed perfectly within arm's reach.

Then, as if their purpose had already been fulfilled, the trees withered at an alarming speed, turning gray and brittle before collapsing into rotten wood.

The entire process—from growth to decay—took less than ten seconds.

Jiraiya stared at the apple in his hand, hesitating only a moment.

Orochimaru and Tsunade didn't hesitate at all.

Crunch.

Crisp sounds echoed. Sweet juice spilled across their fingers.

Seeing the two of them eating so decisively, Jiraiya finally shrugged and took a huge bite.

His eyes widened instantly.

"…It restores stamina?"

Orochimaru carefully placed the cleanly gnawed core into a cloth pouch, his expression bordering on obsession.

"Even after seeing Minato's Spirit Bone, I still underestimated you," he said hoarsely. "To witness such refined Wood Release with my own eyes… this surpasses expectations."

His words accelerated rapidly.

"Does your shop still have Bloodline Spirit Bones in stock?"

"When will sales officially begin?"

"What's the price range?"

"Are there purchase limits?"

"Can I pre-order?"

Tsunade leaned forward, eyes sharp and professional.

"How many Spirit Bones can a Ninja fuse at most?"

"If multiple attributes are absorbed, will there be conflicts?"

"And—" her voice dropped slightly, "if the host already possesses a Bloodline, will absorbing another Bloodline Spirit Bone cause rejection?"

Jiraiya glanced left and right, feeling strangely out of place among two lunatics. He slapped the table loudly.

"Boss! Five more plates of prime beef! And three bottles of top-grade sake!"

He laughed loudly. "Research is fine, business is fine—but eating comes first!"

Li Rong ignored them all, calmly flipping the meat.

Bi Ji smiled and took over.

"There is stock," she said gently. "Once the camp is completed, we'll open a specialized Spirit Bone store. Guests from across the Ninja World will be welcome."

"As for pricing, all goods will be clearly marked. No deception."

She paused slightly.

"We do accept pre-orders—but the price increases by fifty percent, and the earliest delivery will be next month."

Orochimaru's breathing visibly quickened.

Ye Leng Leng then turned to Tsunade, her tone precise and clinical.

"A Ninja can absorb up to six Spirit Bones: skull, torso, left and right arms, left and right legs."

"The skull Spirit Bone is the most valuable. The torso bone follows closely. Both are extremely difficult to replace once absorbed."

"The five basic attributes—wind, lightning, water, fire, and earth—can be absorbed freely."

"But Bloodline Spirit Bones are different."

Her expression grew serious.

"To absorb one, the host must first master the corresponding Chakra nature transformations. For example, Wood Release requires both water and earth."

"Forcing absorption will likely fail. Worse, it may prevent the Spirit Bone from converting into energy at all."

She continued steadily.

"If a Spirit Bone resonates with a Ninja's Chakra once, subsequent absorptions by others become harder."

"And while multiple Bloodline Spirit Bones can theoretically be absorbed, the requirements for Chakra control and physical fitness increase exponentially with each one."

"Failure to control conflicting energies can result in catastrophic internal explosions."

Jiraiya shot to his feet.

"Then why didn't you say all this when Minato absorbed his Spirit Bone?!"

Bi Ji calmly raised a hand.

"Because Minato absorbed a basic attribute Spirit Bone. The requirements are low."

She held up one finger.

"Chunin-level Chakra control and physical fitness are sufficient."

"And as he himself confirmed, he can control it freely. Even in the worst case, it would only waste natural energy—no bodily harm."

Jiraiya sagged back into his seat, exhaling heavily.

"Hahaha… guess I panicked for nothing."

He downed another drink. "Sorry about that, Boss Li."

Orochimaru hadn't listened to a single word.

His gaze burned.

"Can dōjutsu Bloodlines be obtained through Spirit Bones?"

"Orochimaru!" Jiraiya lunged for his mouth, but Orochimaru slipped away disdainfully.

"This question was inevitable," Orochimaru said coolly. "If I don't ask, the old man will. If he doesn't, the Uchiha and Hyuga certainly will."

Snow Princess answered calmly.

"Dōjutsu Bloodlines can only be imprinted on skull Spirit Bones."

"The host must possess strong Yin Release mastery and exceptional mental force."

"And only one dōjutsu Bloodline can exist at a time."

"If the host already has one, only homologous powers may be absorbed."

Orochimaru's voice turned hoarse.

"…Then will you sell the technology used to create artificial Spirit Bones?"

The table went silent.

Dugu Yan yawned lazily, chin propped on her hand.

"Making artificial Spirit Bones isn't easy, you know."

She wiggled a finger.

"Without top-tier Chakra control and peak nature transformation mastery, even if you buy the technology, you won't be able to make anything useful."

"And for Bloodline Spirit Bones?"

She smiled sweetly.

"The creator must master similar power first."

Tsunade slammed the table.

"Then how do you make Wood Release Spirit Bones?!"

Snow Princess answered smoothly.

"Bloodlines aren't strictly limited to inheritance."

"Even in the Senju Clan, only one man ever possessed true Wood Release."

Tsunade fell silent, draining her sake in one gulp.

Orochimaru finally laughed.

"…Interesting. In the end, one still cannot bypass understanding."

He leaned forward.

"If Bloodlines are your goal," Li Rong said calmly, "I have something better."

He set the tools aside.

"A Bloodline Pill."

"Except for dōjutsu Bloodlines, as long as the user masters the corresponding attributes, they can stably awaken a Bloodline—one that can be passed down."

"Lower initial power than Spirit Bones, but identical growth potential."

Orochimaru's eyes gleamed.

"…I'll guide your people."

Jiraiya and Tsunade froze.

"I know this World," Orochimaru said quietly. "Its darkness. Its rules."

"I want knowledge."

Li Rong nodded once.

"Three days. Start tomorrow."

As Orochimaru left, Li Rong watched him go.

"If no one better appears," he said softly, "he'll be the employee for this World."
