87: Chapter 87 New C5In the past few days, Mei Terumi has felt like she's been overwhelmed by documents.
On one hand, they had to deal with the mess left over from the Qingxiao Team incident and on the other hand, they had to appease the villagers' panic about possible "blood mist remnants".
They also had to deal with inquiries from conservatives like Elder Yuanshi, as well as secret replies from the Cloud Village and the Rock Village, whose wording was ambiguous and who were clearly trying to stir up trouble while sitting back and watching the two sides fight.
"A bunch of idiots!They all want to see Kirigakure make a fool of itself!"
She rubbed her throbbing temples, feeling as if her carefully maintained skin was about to wrinkle from anger.
Chojuro carefully handed over a freshly brewed cup of calming herbal tea: "Lord Mizukage, you've been working for a long time, why don't you take a break?"
"rest?"
Mei Terumi picked up her teacup and snorted irritably, "Would that bastard Naruto let me rest?Who knows what kind of bad scheme he's plotting right now!"
Looking at the dish on the table that described how Kirigakure "persecuted" the thief of the Byakugan, a surge of anger rose to her head.
The reputation of Kirigakure has plummeted internationally, which has even affected its foreign trade.
She put down her teacup, a sharp glint in her eyes."Strengthen border controls, especially on merchant ships heading towards the Land of Waves.Inspect them thoroughly!Seize them immediately if you find even the slightest violation!"
At the dock, Yakushi Kabuto was directing workers to load a batch of medical supplies and experimental equipment onto a ship.
He is about to return to the Land of Fields branch to oversee its daily operations and the construction of defensive fortifications.
"Master Dou, you're leaving already?"
Naruto stood outside the ship.
Dou bowed slightly, "The country of Tian cannot be left without someone in charge for a long time, especially during this sensitive period."
"Alright, I'll leave that to you.Remember, contact me anytime if you encounter any difficulties!"
Dou nodded with a smile.
"President!President!We did it!"
Just then, Deidara's excited shouts, so loud they cracked, came from afar.
He came running towards us with a head of messy blond hair, his eyes shining, and a basin-sized object covered in a black cloth.
"What's all the noise about?Did you see a ghost this early in the morning?"
"Art!The ultimate art is complete!" Deidara rushed to the front of the ship, carefully placed the object on an empty wooden box, and suddenly ripped off the black cloth.
Beneath the black cloth was a clay sculpture with an extremely unique design.
It is an unstable grayish-white color, with geometrically cut edges and chakra crystals that emit a dangerous red light.
Overall, it doesn't look like a bomb; it's more like an abstract modern artwork.
"What's this?A chamber pot you made?"
Naruto circled around it, looking completely bewildered.
"C5 - The Old Ancestor of Sealed Dust!" Deidara proudly named it.
"It's no longer a simple physical explosion and chakra impact."
He explained with exaggerated gestures: "The moment C5 explodes, it releases a special shockwave that preferentially affects the chakra meridian system, causing it to resonate and collapse!"
He looked at Naruto with fanatical eyes: "Simply put, it's designed to drain chakra!No matter how strong his taijutsu is or how tough his body is, as long as he uses chakra, he will start to crumble from the inside!"
"The stronger the chakra, the faster the death!This is the ultimate art against the strong!"
"Holy crap!A Demon-Sealing Stone plus a Ninja World version of the Smiling Half-Step Madman!"
Naruto listened for a while and finally understood, his expression showing surprise.
"Sounds interesting, but what about the scope?"
"It can be released over a small area," Deidara said, gesturing with his palm."Something this size in its complete form… can cover a small base!"
"Well done, you've made progress."
Naruto patted Deidara on the shoulder.
"Find a time, find a secluded place, blow one up and see the effect.If it works well, I'll give your research institute an extra bonus."
Deidara chuckled.
He carefully held his "hidden ancestor".
He ran off excitedly to his Explosion Art Research Institute.
Kabuto watched Deidara's retreating figure and adjusted his glasses.
"Although Mr.Deidara's behavior is unconventional, his talent in the field of explosives is truly unmatched."
"This targeted approach may prove surprisingly effective someday."
Naruto nodded thoughtfully and didn't say anything more.
Then Kabuto turned around and boarded the ship bound for the Land of Rice Fields.
In the training area, Shuiyue was yelling loudly.
"Aaaaah!You stinky turtle!Get out here right now!"
Shuiyue brandished her Exploding Blade: Spray, acting erratically on the calm sea.
Occasionally, pale blue tailed beast chakra would uncontrollably overflow from his body, and several illusory tails would haphazardly slap the water's surface.
Since becoming the Three-Tails Jinchuriki, his chakra reserves have indeed skyrocketed, but controlling them precisely is extremely difficult.
Mitsuo Isobu seems to be living a very.Zen-like life in that "binary cell"?
He spends most of his time lying down and sleeping, completely ignoring Shuiyue's desire to communicate.
"Hey!Big turtle, can't you hear me?How about we cooperate?"
Shuiyue called out to her stomach.
So noisy, you brat.
Shuiyue jumped in surprise, "Holy crap!You finally decided to speak?"
It's quite comfortable here, I don't want to move.
Shuiyue nearly vomited blood."Comfortable?You're a tailed beast!Have some self-respect!Being locked up is comfortable?"
Compared to those dark and damp places before, this place is stable and clean.
Isobu continued slowly, "That kid named Naruto Uzumaki has some peculiar methods, and I don't want to provoke him."
After saying that, no matter how much Mizuki shouted, Isobu stopped responding and went back to his dormant state.
"Damn it!"
Shuiyue jumped up and down.
"Arguing with your pet turtle, that's quite admirable."
Naruto arrived unnoticed, holding a blade of grass in his mouth, watching Suigetsu like he was watching a monkey show.
"It's giving up!It's completely uncooperative with me!" Shuiyue said helplessly.
Naruto walked to the water's edge, squatted down, and looked at the reflection of the moon in the water, its reflection bearing the patterns of the tailed beast's chakra.film.
"A forced melon is not sweet, but it quenches thirst.If it won't cooperate, can't you find a way to make it cooperate?"
"What method?"
Naruto smiled faintly, "It likes quiet, so you deliberately make it noisy; it feels comfortable that way, so you make it uncomfortable."
He lowered his voice and said it in a low voice.
Upon hearing this, Shuiyue's eyes widened at first, then her expression brightened with sudden understanding.
The next few days.
He stopped trying to forcibly extract chakra and began to hold solo concerts, perform stand-up comedy, and play Naruto's "Super Ethnic Style" in his "binary sealed space" day and night.
At first, Isobu could tolerate it, wrapping himself in thick chakra to block out the noise.
But Shuiyue is incredibly persistent and comes up with all sorts of tricks.
Finally, when Shuiyue hummed "The Vast Horizon" for the fiftieth time, Isobu completely erupted!
"Enough!Shut up!You noisy dog!"
A dull roar exploded on Shuiyue's forehead.
"Hey, Grandpa Turtle's awake?"
Shuiyue asked cheekily, "Can I borrow some chakra?Or should I give you another 'Tante'?"
Isobu felt a blatant threat.
It never wants to hear that stuff again.
Take it!Get out!
A surge of abundant, moist chakra flowed into Shuiyue's limbs and bones.
Buzz—
A deep blue chakra cloak steadily covered his body, and three tails formed from chakra swayed slowly behind him, no longer the illusory and violent ones of before, but carrying a solid sense of power.
His pupils also turned into vertical pupils, similar to those of a reptile.
"Haha!I succeeded!" Shuiyue roared excitedly, feeling the surging and submissive power within her.
He swung his explosive blade, unleashing a massive slash infused with the chakra of the tailed beasts, causing the sea to surge with enormous waves, far surpassing its previous power.
Naruto stood up on the shore, nodded in satisfaction, and then turned and left.
With Suigetsu mastering "deep cooperation" with the Three-Tails.
Naruto's envisioned "Sea Army" has officially been put on the agenda.
He began selecting some members of the merchant guild who were skilled in water escape techniques or had underwater combat abilities, and started training them together with Shuiyue as the core.
