Twin Pistols

A few days later, Shuichi built a training ground in the wilderness of the Daimyo's Mansion.

In the arena, he held a special ninja tool in his hand, Gun-type Ninjutsu Tool he had designed himself.

Upon closer inspection, the gun's current structure was rather rudimentary, as it was only a prototype.

He and Sato agreed that they would wait until the optimal parameters were determined before using the remaining Chakra Metal to complete the project.

This homemade gun has a rather peculiar design; its barrel is shorter than that of a modern revolver, and it lacks a trigger because it uses Explosion Release chakra instead of gunpowder.

The entire gun body is made of Chakra Metal only in the barrel and the rear end. The front of the rear end is a rather simple roller with a total of 8 holes, which are filled with 8 bullets. Whether it will be replaced with a magazine-type magazine later will require actual combat testing.

"Let's begin. First, go through the whole process in your mind." Shuichi summarized his theory in his mind.

First, the roller is rotated by Magnet Release to load the bullet. The bullets currently produced by the mold have a caliber of about 7 mm and a length of just over 2 cm. All 8 bullets are pointed bullets, used to adjust the accuracy.

Once loaded, high-intensity Explosion Release chakra is injected into the metal at the butt of the gun, and then a technique similar to Water Severing Wave is used to release it instantly from that point at the end of the barrel.

Once the power source was secured, the issue of firing had to be considered. Shuichi's gun barrel used a smoothbore rather than a rifled barrel, a choice made based on the actual situation.

Firstly, Sato couldn't create such fine rifling, and secondly, the barrel was made of Chakra Metal, which Shuichi couldn't withstand constant wear and tear on.

Secondly, with his extensive combat experience, he knew that a smoothbore gun perfectly suited the needs of ninja combat. He only needed to ensure accurate hits within 30 meters, which would work perfectly in conjunction with his X-ray vision.

"Ready to launch!"

Shuichi raised his arm and drew a target on a tree in front of him, about 20 meters away.

There is a small triangular mark at the top of the barrel as an aiming reference to correct the bullet trajectory; it can be removed once you are more proficient.

Soon, his chakra began to flow, high-intensity Explosion Release chakra gathered on the spear, and then exploded out, "Bang!"

An explosion rang out in the woods, the terrifying kinetic energy transferring to the bullet and propelling it out of the barrel.

Almost simultaneously, Shuichi used his Magnet Release chakra to cover the entire barrel of the gun, slightly adjusting the bullet's trajectory and stabilizing its flight path.

"Call out!"

The explosion had barely occurred when a small hole appeared in the target on the tree.

He didn't stop after firing the first shot, using Magnet Release to control the rotation of the roller, while simultaneously unleashing Explosion Release chakra in quick succession. The second shot was fired at top speed, "Bang!"

After firing the second shot, Shuichi didn't attack again. Instead, he used Ninjutsu, "Wind Release: Vacuum Orb!"

"Whoosh, whoosh!"

There were four holes in the target, indicating that the attack had pierced through the entire tree. He walked closer to take a look and then immediately went behind the tree.

There were also marks on the second tree 10 meters away. After checking, Shuichi found that although the two Vacuum Orbs had hit this spot, their power was no longer sufficient. The two bullets, on the other hand, had even penetrated the third tree in the distance. It was obvious which one was stronger.

"This is terrifying! My plan has succeeded!"

Shuichi is very happy now. It's no exaggeration to say that after he developed his technique, most traditional escape techniques are no longer useful.

This "Gun Release" will serve as the true core attack method, simplifying complex moves and allowing one to rely on a single, powerful technique.

Carefully recalling those two shots, the effects compared to the Vacuum Orb were very obvious in all aspects.

"The muzzle velocity definitely exceeds the speed of sound, completely comparable to modern firearms from my previous life," Shuichi his mind. "The power completely surpasses Vacuum Orb; each shot is equivalent to an A-rank Ninjutsu."

"No Hand Seals are needed, and chakra consumption is very low. Once you're skilled, you can basically fire a shot with a simple raise of your hand, and then spin the scroll wheel for a second shot."

Given the current productivity of the Shinobi World, this method of fighting is a bit expensive, as the bullets used up quickly, but compared to its power, it is absolutely worth the cost.

"It can be combined with Magnet Release to fly through the air and fire at the ground." Shuichi started daydreaming, "If it were replaced with a Gatling gun, wouldn't I be a rocket soldier, charging into the enemy army from the sky and then pushing my way through..."

He had a wonderful dream, but then he returned to reality; such a thought is simply impossible to achieve now.

This "Gun Release" is a fusion of Explosion Release, Magnet Release, Chakra Metal, and advanced Chakra Control Techniques. The key is to perfectly utilize Shuichi's extremely high chakra strength and control ability.

Even if the principles were explained to other Jonin the Shinobi World and they were given Explosion Release and Magnet Release, they still wouldn't be able to replicate Shuichi's actions.

Using this control technique is actually very energy-consuming; Shuichi needs to concentrate on each shot he makes.

In his vision, once he had mastered this process, he would carry a gun in each hand, and by combining the Body Flicker Technique and the Flying Thunder God Technique to adjust his positioning, he could basically Jonin with one shot.

The bullets we just tested had pointed tips, which were for accuracy testing. However, in actual combat, these bullets are not as good as another type.

Shuichi took out two round-nosed bullets from his pocket. They didn't look as scary as the pointed ones, but they would actually show their terrifying effects when they hit a human body.

He reloaded and immediately fired a round-nosed bullet at the tree, "Bang!"

"Boom!" The bullet, carrying powerful kinetic energy, struck the tree trunk. The enormous impact created a large hole in the middle. Although the penetration effect of the bullet was not as good as that of the pointed end, the effect was even more chilling.

"Tsk tsk, the power is quite exaggerated. Even just a glancing blow to the arm can take away a large chunk of flesh from an enemy. It's a true human life harvester." Shuichi felt quite satisfied.

In the future, his own fighting style will be the most unique in the Shinobi World. When he encounters an enemy, he will pull out his Twin Pistols and kill them all in a few quick shots. Just thinking about it is very exciting.

In the days that followed, Shuichi constantly traveled between the training ground and the ninja tool shop. Each time, Sato would adjust the Gun-type Ninjutsu Tool and repeatedly experiment with the size of the bullets until the standard specifications were finally determined.

After crafting two guns using Chakra Metal, they found they had quite a bit left over. Sato then asked, "Shuichi-kun, the remaining materials can make a short sword. Would you like some?"

Shuichi decided to keep the materials for now, in case he became more capable in the future and needed to make adjustments.

He took the two guns from Sato, a look of fascination on his face.

Those ugly experimental guns have disappeared. The pistol in front of me is about 70% similar in appearance to the Desert Eagle, except that part of the cylinder is exposed and the round barrel at the front is covered by the empty shell of the Desert Eagle.

"Now that the guns are ready, the skins can't be neglected." Both guns were deep black and shiny, and as he requested, they were also painted with artistic gold and red lines.

He also requested that the empty space in the middle of the gun be made. After getting it, he immediately filled it with Magnet Release White Sand. When thrown, it could be controlled to fly back. Perfect!

"Maybe I'll have a chance to do a real gun-throwing maneuver someday." Shuichi thought to himself, channeling his Explosion Release chakra into the gun and briefly suppressing it before throwing it out, controlling its launch with Magnet Release, and then letting it fly back automatically. It was incredibly cool.

"Shuichi-kun... I have a question." Sato saw him gently toying with the pistol as if caressing a beautiful woman's skin, and he wasn't surprised, because he also thought the weapon was incredibly cool.

"What?"

"So why did you insist on making this ring?" Sato pointed to the angle of the gun, where the trigger is on a modern pistol. "After all these days, I can guess that you're using chakra to fire this thing called a bullet to attack the enemy."

"Even with my years of experience in ninja tool manufacturing, I can't figure out what the use of this extra ring is. Can you satisfy my curiosity? Every ingenious idea is a valuable asset to a ninja tool maker!" Sato was indeed itching to know if this design had any special effects.

"Hehe, I'll tell you its function now." Shuichi smiled mysteriously, then raised his gun and pointed it forward, "Bang!"

After simulating the sound of a gunshot, he released the grip, inserted his index finger into the ring, and began to spin the gun, turning it left and right in a series of fluid movements before putting it back in the holster.

"How is it? Handsome, right?"

Sato: "..."
