Chapter 160 Reward, Body Outside the Body
Chapter 151 Reward, Body Outside the Body
Stepping out of the hall, Hoshino Senju pondered to himself, "This daimyo of the Land of Fields does have some brains."
His Yin Power index has reached 48%. Combined with Kagura's Mind's Eye and his talent for malice perception, he can easily capture other people's emotional fluctuations and thus deduce what they are thinking.
Of course, this is not like directly reading thoughts as with the spirit of Gosaku Kuzaki, but rather reasoning based on emotions.
This daimyo named Mizugaki Haruho never exuded strong malice—not out of friendliness, but because of his deep-seated arrogance and contempt for ninjas.
He agreed to their demands, almost as if he were dismissing beggars who came to his door, but these "beggars" were highly skilled in combat, forcing him to give in.
Xingyuan Qianshuo didn't care about the other party's attitude.
The hierarchical concepts that have been accumulated in the ninja world for thousands of years cannot be changed overnight.
The "one village per country" system slightly elevated the status of ninjas. While ninja villages held military advantages, they were weak in terms of economy and culture, and ultimately had to submit to daimyo and nobles in politics.
If the power limit of a ninja is only "Kage level", the current system may still be able to maintain itself; but when ninjas can reach the Six Paths realm, and the enemy of the ninja world is the Otsutsuki clan from the universe, it would seem absurd and ridiculous for ninjas to still be subordinate to the daimyo of the country.
His vision for the future of the ninja world is to integrate the power of all ninjas, move from the Ninja World Alliance to the World Government, and rise above nations.
By then, these feudal lords and nobles will be completely transformed.
The goal of selling off cash cannot be achieved solely through military force; it requires a three-pronged approach: economic, cultural, and military.
Economically, it changes the survival model of ninjas who rely on mission employment, allowing ninjutsu and chakra to create social wealth, so that ninjas are no longer "parasites" of society.
Culturally, it reverses the conventional wisdom that "ninjas are merely tools for missions, only capable of killing and destruction," and demonstrates that ninjas can also uphold justice and exist in a peaceful manner.
Of course, all of this ultimately needs to return to military power to integrate the scattered ninja forces in the ninja world.
These three paths will ultimately converge on the same political goal: to establish a world government dominated by ninja power.
By solidifying everything through political systems and the interests of the majority, we can achieve long-term sustainability.
These past thoughts flashed through his mind briefly before settling down.
At that moment, he clearly sensed the malice emanating from his side coming from the elite Jonin, Kurihara Kama, who was right behind him.
"Mr. Lian, do you sometimes experience dull pain in your left abdomen?" Xingyuan Qianshuo suddenly asked.
"How did you know?" Kurihara asked, looking surprised.
"Our association is proficient in medical ninjutsu, which is why we can provide free medical treatment to ninjas and civilians." Hoshino Senju said calmly, "You suffered a puncture wound in your left abdomen, but the treatment method at the time was rough, which caused several major meridians to be blocked, and the symptoms are manifested in the spleen area."
Kurihara Kama remained silent, his mind churning with thoughts.
He couldn't immediately tell whether the other party had gathered intelligence beforehand or genuinely saw through him with their medical skills. But either way, it was by no means an ordinary method.
"While this ailment doesn't usually have a significant impact, it will definitely hinder one's performance in intense battles," Hoshino Senju continued. "Mr. Scythe, would you like me to treat you?"
"Can this kind of old injury be healed?" Kurihara asked hesitantly.
"Of course, it's not difficult for me." Xingyuan Qianshuo nodded and stopped walking.
"Then I'll have to trouble you, Mr. Kuchiki."
"You're welcome. The Red Cross Society is a charitable medical organization, and we'll need to maintain close ties with Daimyo Prefecture in the future. We hope Mr. Kama will take good care of us."
After speaking softly, Xingyuan Qianshuo reached out and gently touched the other person's left abdomen to check for blockages in the meridians.
Next, instead of using the Palm Healing Technique, he took out a golden healing fluff ball from his personal space and, under Kurihara Kama's astonished gaze, placed it on his left abdomen.
The fluffy ball quietly disappeared into the body, and the old injury healed instantly.
"Huh—what kind of medical ninjutsu is this?" Kurihara Kama felt all the stagnation in his body disappear and couldn't help but ask.
"A treatment method unique to the Red Cross Society." Xingyuan Qianshuo responded calmly.
He deliberately displayed this skill in front of the other party, and then sensed that the malice on the other party had quietly subsided.
He added, "Once the association headquarters is completed, we will invite Your Majesty to visit and conduct free medical treatment activities in the Land of Rice Fields in the name of Your Majesty, so as to make Your Majesty famous."
"I believe that in the future, the Land of Fields will occupy a special position among the nations of the ninja world because of the existence of the Red Cross Society."
Having personally experienced the miraculous healing, Kurihara Kama had no doubts about these words, but he still found it difficult to weigh the pros and cons.
The two walked and talked, and Kurihara led them to a side hall to sit and wait for the retainer, Tanimoto Honami.
Xingyuan Qianshuo knew that the other party was consulting with the daimyo, so he was not in a hurry.
While waiting, he retrieved the reward from healing Kurihara Kama: "Basic swordsmanship proficiency +200, chakra +130".
Before long, the grains of rice from the valley arrived.
After friendly consultations, both sides selected three locations, all within 50 kilometers of the capital, based on a map of the land of fields.
Xingyuan Qianshuo immediately formed a hand seal and sent a shadow clone to investigate the scene.
About half an hour later, the shadow clone dissipated, and the memories returned. He finally identified one of them.
Leaving Daming Prefecture, Hoshigen Sensaku led Kakuzu to the chosen location—a wooded hilly area with a river meandering through it, about forty kilometers from the capital.
Everything here needs to be rebuilt from scratch.
Unfortunately, he has not yet mastered the "Four Pillars of Destiny" technique of Yamato.
After a moment's thought, he decided to entrust the construction of the headquarters to Xuan Neng, a professional construction craftsman.
He deactivated the transformation spell, created another shadow clone, and teleported away after sensing the location of the mystic energy.
A moment later, the shadow clone returned with Xuan energy.
"Qian Shuo-kun, we meet again," Xuan Neng greeted. "Where is this—?"
"Within the territory of the Land of Fields," Hoshino Sensaku replied with a smile.
"The Land of Fields? The Flying Thunder God Technique is truly amazing," Xuan Neng exclaimed.
"Xuan Neng, let me introduce you. This is another member of our organization—Kakuzu." Xingyuan Qian Shuo introduced them. "Kakuzu, this is Xuan Neng."
Upon hearing this, Xuan Neng looked at the masked man in surprise: "Kakuzu, the 'Undying Hunter'?"
"Hmm." Kakuzu nodded slightly, his emerald green eyes sweeping over Gen Neng.
"The organization is newly established and has few members," Xingyuan Qianshuo explained. "There is one more member named Uzumaki Huimei. Please wait a moment, I will bring her here for a gathering."
The shadow clone understood and instantly disappeared.
Before long, he brought Uzumaki Emi, who was cultivating, to the scene.
"Teacher Chisaku!" Huimei called out in a clear voice.
"Yes, Huimei, let me introduce you to two other senior members of the organization—Kakuzu and Genou. They are very experienced, and you can learn a lot from them in the future."
"Yes, teacher! Greetings to Senior Kakuzu and Senior Genou." Huimei bowed respectfully.
"Hello, Hye-mi," Xuan Neng replied with a smile.
"Hello," Kakuzu said briefly.
"Uzumaki Emi is a descendant of the Uzumaki clan and also my student," Hoshigen Chisaku solemnly explained.
Gennō and Kakuzu looked at Hye-mi's red hair and understood.
After a moment's thought, Xingyuan Qianshuo said, "Huimei, give me a healing pom-pom."
"Okay, teacher," Huimei replied, and a golden ball of fluff quickly formed in her palm.
Kakuzu's eyes flickered slightly; this was the very thing that Hoshigen Chisaku had used to treat Kurihara Kama.
"Xuan Neng, your internal organs are weak and your qi and blood are depleted. Apply this fluffy ball to your spleen area," Xing Yuan Qian Shuo instructed.
Although Xuan Neng didn't understand why, he still took the fluff ball, examined it for a moment, and placed it on his left abdomen as instructed. The moment the fluff ball melted away, he clearly felt the vitality of his internal organs return.
"This is amazing!" Xuan Neng couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.
After using the system to check, Xingyuan Qianshuo handed over another one: "This time, place it on the liver area."
If Xuan Neng follows this advice, his liver will also be full of vitality.
System reward notification: "Substitute Explosion (Proficient), Chakra +110".
Xingyuan Qianshuo scanned the information and continued, "These fluff balls can heal most external injuries, restore physical strength, and also treat some diseases. Huimei can make them herself or extract them from others, so the consumption is not high. Although the fluff balls have a time limit, they can be sealed in storage rolls for long-term use."
These words secretly alarmed Gennō and Kakuzu. They were well aware of the scarcity of medical ninjas and the difficulty of medical ninjutsu, and naturally understood the immense value of this ability.
The "Our Star" organization aims to establish a Shinobi World Alliance government and end the wars between various countries and shinobi villages. However, the organization currently needs to accumulate strength, so it operates externally under the name of the "Red Cross Society."
Next, Hoshino Senshuo elaborated on the Red Cross Society's mission, the Six Paths Sage's Ninja Sect's philosophy, code of conduct, and its significance to the "Star" organization.
"The Red Cross Society is officially established today," he said solemnly. "As an external organization, it will recruit volunteers widely. We will select the best from among them to form the core 'Star' organization, gradually building up our strength."
Just then, the system reward arrived as scheduled:
[Congratulations, host, on creating the first charitable medical organization in the ninja world, the "Red Cross Association." With compassionate hearts and benevolent hearts, you benefit all under heaven. Rewards: Origin Scroll *1, Teaching Scroll (Intermediate) *2, Yang Power +10%, Chakra +20000]
"Wow, that's quite generous," Xingyuan Qianshuo thought to himself. "This should be a reward for practicing medicine in the long run."
He then glanced at the system organization section: Xuan Neng's belief level rose to 42%, Hui Mei increased by 5 percentage points to 92%, while Kakuzu remained unchanged.
"Xuan Neng, did you find anything interesting from your investigation of the newspaper and media industry in the capital of the Fire Kingdom?" Xing Yuan Qian Shuo asked in turn.
"Newspapers and publishing houses are backed by powerful figures and nobles. Acquiring them would not only be expensive, but would also involve censorship. Starting your own business would be even more troublesome," Xuan Neng replied, frowning.
"I see—I was being naive." Xingyuan Qianshuo pondered. "Let's focus on the association's charitable medical work first. We can discuss publicity later."
"Okay." Xuan Neng nodded.
Hoshino Senju pointed to the wooded area before them: "This is the area allocated by the Land of Fields to the Red Cross Society for the construction of its headquarters. A large hospital and some residential buildings need to be built first, with gradual expansion to follow."
"Xuan Neng, you are familiar with the construction industry and will be responsible for hiring craftsmen and coordinating the construction; Kakuzu, you will be responsible for recording and auditing expenditures."
After saying that, he waved his hand and took out a box of Fire Country banknotes from his personal space—one of the two boxes he had obtained from the Morino Mansion's treasury, worth about ten million taels.
"This money will serve as seed capital; Kakuzu, you will manage it."
Xuan Neng nodded in agreement.
Kakuzu remained calm, but quickly took the money box and began counting it without any hesitation.
Xingyuan Qianshuo shook his head helplessly and said to Xuan Neng, "I still have matters to attend to in Konoha, so my shadow clone will remain here. If there are any problems, we can communicate at any time."
"Understood, I will make proper arrangements," Xuan Neng replied.
Xingyuan Qianshuo left behind a shadow clone, while his main body sent Huimei back to her cultivation place, and then teleported back to Qianshuo City.
Everything in the city was as usual.
He looked around, sat quietly in the restaurant in the small square, and collected his previous reward.
First, the "Substitute Explosion" skill from Xuan Neng was extracted—a technique that combines explosive tags with the Substitute Jutsu.
Next, he received the award for founding the "Red Cross Society":
Yang energy increased by 10%, reaching 66%, bringing it one step closer to perfection;
His chakra increased by 20,000 points, bringing his total chakra to over 190,000, officially surpassing the "strongest Hokage" Hiruzen Sarutobi.
Collecting his thoughts, Xingyuan Qianshuo looked at the scrolls in his inventory: one Origin Scroll, one previously saved Skill Perfection Scroll, and two Intermediate Tutorial Scrolls.
I'll use the intermediate-level teaching scroll on Tsunade when I get back, teaching her to fuse the Magnet Release bloodline limit. If one isn't enough, I'll use two. After she succeeds, whether she controls iron sand or gold sand will depend on Tsunade's luck.
The skill-perfect scroll remains.
After some thought, Xingyuan Qianshuo decided to use the Origin Scroll on the Shadow Clone Technique, which he had long wanted to try.
With a slight thought, the purple scroll in the inventory disappeared.
A mysterious and distant power quietly descended, and he felt as if he were connected with a being of a higher dimension.
Vast, majestic, magnificent, serene, transcendent, unparalleled —
A variety of feelings surfaced in his heart in an instant, shaking Xingyuan Qianshuo's mind.
This connection lasts only a moment, and his perception of time becomes sluggish and stagnant.
His mind instinctively sought this connection, attempting to observe that higher-dimensional existence.
However, the moment the thought arose, the connection was quietly severed.
He was in a daze for a moment, then his mind returned, and his heart suddenly started racing.
After a long while, he let out a long sigh and calmed himself down.
Open the system panel and you will see an additional line: [Divine Art: Body Outside Body].
"Divine magic? What is that higher-dimensional being? A human, a god, or Otsutsuki Shibai? Or perhaps the will of a planet, the will of a world?"
As thoughts surged through Xingyuan Qianshuo's mind, he followed an almost instinctive feeling, closed his eyes, and focused his attention on his mental space.
Suddenly, a bubble-like object appeared in the space, about the size of two hands embracing.
The bubble was covered with a thin film, with a shimmering point of light at its center. The point of light shone with a golden glow, and upon closer inspection, it also displayed a rainbow of colors.
A profound and clear message surfaced in his mind—this was his external body, but it still needed time to nurture it—about two weeks.
After observing for a while, he opened his eyes and pondered again.
The concept of "divine arts" was introduced in Boruto. Amado explained that ninjutsu, simply put, is the process of reproducing the phenomena produced by divine arts by condensing chakra through hand seals.
Most of the divine arts are related to Otsutsuki Shibai, who in legends became the supreme god, voluntarily abandoning his physical body and transcending dimensions.
However, if we apply the concept of divine arts to the Naruto storyline, the abilities of the Mangekyou Sharingan and the Rinnegan can actually be called divine arts, or similar to divine arts.
These pupil abilities emerge and are mastered almost instinctively after the eyes are opened; they are not acquired through training.
Therefore, even Xingyuan Qianshuo could not determine the specific origin of the divine technique "body outside body" or whether it came from Otsutsuki Shibakai.
He quickly gave up on these pointless thoughts.
Regardless of its origin, it is not something he can access right now.
The specific functions of the external body will only be known after the cultivation is completed.
