Shinki the Tool Forger

The Land of Lightning.

Kumogakure.

Allied Shinobi Forces Headquarters.

After tireless research by the sealing Ninjas at Headquarters, they finally managed to draw several Scrolls depicting the Netherworld Sealing.

The Raikage sighed and said, "Although we've drawn quite a few Scrolls, the enemy has a huge number of Impure World Reincarnation Ninjas, so we can only use them against powerful enemies."

Hokage: "That's already quite good. With a few Scrolls, dealing with those Kage Level shinobi on the Land of Land of Iron battlefield will be much easier."

"I reckon the Second Division, led by Tsuchikage and Kitsuchi, is almost at its breaking point."

The Raikage nodded, quickly summoned his secretary, and instructed him to send these axles to the Desert Battlefield of the Land of Iron.

Just after the Netherworld Sealing Scroll was sent out, Shinki arrived at Tsunade's side using the Flying Thunder God Technique, carrying Kisame in his hand.

Raikage asked, "Who is he...? Has the location of Turtle Island been discovered again? (꒪⌓꒪)"

Shinki shook his head and explained, "No, I captured this person from Konoha."

Upon hearing Tsunade's heart tightened. "Is the village alright now?"

Shinki nodded. "It's nothing. I just happened to run into Kisame on my way back, so I brought him along! ( ˝ᗢ̈˝ )"

Tsunade breathed a sigh of relief, but quickly clenched her fists again. "Damn Akatsuki! They actually took advantage of the village's weakened defenses during the great battle to launch a sneak attack! How despicable! (ꐦ ಠ 皿ಠ)"

Shinki clapped his hands. "Alright, now that you've brought the person here, you can decide what to do with him."

"I'm going back for my vacation now. (◔◡◔)"

After saying that, Shinki planned to slip away.

Tsunade: "Wait a minute!"

"Why aren't you staying on Turtle Island? What are you always doing running around?"

"What if the Akatsuki finds out? Besides, didn't you yourself say that the Great Toad Sage doesn't want you to participate in the Fourth Shinobi World War?"

Shinki: "Um... I'll go back to the village to do some research. ┐(´-`)┌"

Raikage: "My Kumogakure Base on Turtle Island, equipped with all sorts of advanced Experimental Equipment. Why do we have to go back to Konoha?"

Shinki answered truthfully, "Back then, the Fourth Hokage used the Reaper Death Seal, Sacrifice his soul to the Shinigami. I returned to the village to retrieve the Fourth's Corpse and see if I could use the Reaper Death Seal to retrieve his soul from the Shinigami. (╯ε╰)"

Raikage, Hokage:= ͟͟͞͞(꒪ᗜ꒪ ‧̣̥̇), ヽ( ຶ▮ ຶ)ﾉ!!

"Asking ghosts and Shinigami for things? Well... did you succeed? (⊙o⊙)"

The Raikage was stuttering.

Shinki nodded matter-of-factly. "Using a few chickens and rabbits from the village, we finally managed to retrieve the Fourth Hokage's soul. ╮(╯▽╰)╭"

At this moment, the group of sealed Ninjas in the Office:!!∑(°Д°ノ)ノ

"Exchanging an animal's soul for a human's soul?!"

"The object of this transaction is still Shinigami!"

"How could such a thing be possible?!"

"However, if the person who developed this technique is Professor Shinki, then it's not entirely unacceptable...(=°ω°)"

Tsunade closed her agape jaw and said, forcing herself to remain calm, "Alright, it's good that you enjoy research, but try not to wander off. Akatsuki is quite fierce right now."

"If there's nothing else, you should go back now."

As soon as Tsunade finished speaking, Inoichi Yamanaka, who was in charge of liaising with the various Ninja units, said, "The Akatsuki's Daimyo's Guard has sent word that Zetsu and Konan are attempting to assassinate the Daimyo. They are currently fighting with the two."

Tsunade nodded. "The Ninjas protecting the Daimyo's Residence's residence are all elites from various villages. If the enemy only sent these two, there's nothing to worry about. (▿)"

Inoichi Yamanaka continued his report, "According to the news from over there, Zetsu seems to be able to use Wood Release..."

The Raikage frowned upon hearing this, clearly somewhat wary. "Wood Release..."

Tsunade seemed much more relaxed. "Ninja knows Wood Release isn't necessarily strong. As long as the Ninjas from the Daimyo's Residence's Mansion haven't sent any requests for reinforcements, there's nothing to worry about."

"Jiraiya keep watch over there; just make sure to stay in touch with them."

Inoichi Yamanaka nodded. "Received."

After a while, Inoichi Yamanaka said, "The First Combat Division has sent word that they are requesting the use of the Amber Purifying Pot, Six Paths Tool from Kumogakure..."

Raikage nodded. "Approved. Tell them the secretary will use the Heavenly Transfer Technique to send it over later."

Inoichi Yamanaka: "Received."

The Shinki beside him, intrigued by the magical artifact mentioned by Inoichi Yamanaka, asked with a puzzled look, "The Amber Purifying Pot, Six Paths Tool? Is it that powerful?"

Upon hearing this, Raikage proudly raised his chin. "Of course! The Amber Purifying Pot is a magical artifact left behind by the Sage of Six Paths. As long as someone responds to the user's call, the Amber Purifying Pot can take them inside!"

Shinki: (꒪⌓꒪)

He knew this plot all too well! It's Sun Xingzhe and Zhe Xingsun, right...?

"Can I take a look?" Shinki asked.

The Raikage nodded.

After a while, a jar about half a person's height was carried out by a group of Cloud Village ninjas...

Shinki:...

This magical artifact is far from what I expected!

"Okay, then I'm going back to continue my vacation."

After saying that, Shinki left in disappointment.

Raikage: "What does this kid mean?! He dares to complain about even the Sage of Sage of Six Paths artifacts! ヽ('⌒´メ)ノ"

Tsunade: "It's normal to dislike it; this jar wasn't pretty to begin with. ┐(´-`)┌"

Raikage: "..."

Are you polite?

Turtle Island.

The moment Shinki returned, he informed Naruto that he had successfully released the Fourth Hokage's soul.

Although his father had been dead for a long time, Naruto was so happy to hear that his soul had been freed that he almost knelt down before the Shinki.

"Alright, alright, why are we brothers doing all this? (ーー゛)"

Naruto stood up and bowed repeatedly to the Shinki in gratitude. "It's only right to show proper respect. If it weren't for your help, I don't know how much longer Dad's soul would have remained inside the Death God. (｡•́•̀｡)"

Shenmu: "If you really want to thank me, go and ask the Cloud Village ninja if there's a place on this island where weapons are forged."

"Weapon Forging? If you want a weapon, can't you just buy one? You can choose any kind of weapon— Great Sword, a spear, Kunai— " Naruto asked, puzzled.

Shinki replied, "Ordinary weapons don't meet my needs. I want to try and see if I can forge items like immortal Sage Tool..."

Naruto: ◝₍ᴑ̑ДO͝₎◞

Although I didn't quite understand what he said, it seemed like Shinki was doing something extraordinary!

Shinki pouted, "There's no need to be so surprised. I just wanted to give it a try; whether I'll succeed is still uncertain."

Naruto nodded. "Okay! Tell me everything you need, and I'll go prepare it right away! (^▽^ )"

Soon, Naruto left with the list of items Shinki needed, while Shinki sat down cross-legged in the room.

He had a sudden inspiration to Weapon Forging after seeing the Amber Purifying Pot; the specific steps to follow still need to be considered.

He murmured, "It's easy to master a weapon, but how do you give it special properties...?"

"Store Chakra inside... or... write Sealing Formula on it?!"
