Yin Seal Complete! The Beginning of War (Fourth Update)

"How could this be—how could Qingyu possibly Lady Tsunade?!"

Sarutobi Asuma never expected Qingyu to do something like that.

"That's good progress."

Tsunade stood still, looking at Qingyu.

She could feel the force from Qingyu's fist; although it wasn't as strong as her own full strength, it was already far stronger than last year.

"It's all Sister Tsunade's excellent teaching."

Qingyu withdrew her fist and stretched her wrist.

Although he caught that punch, Tsunade's Strength of a Hundred was clearly still superior to his.

However, the gap is not as wide as it used to be.

"Hmph, glib tongue."

Tsunade raised her right leg high and slammed it down towards Qingyu's location.

Heaven Kick of Pain!

Boom!

The ground shattered beneath Tsunade's feet.

A massive crack stretched from beneath her feet toward Qingyu, sending rubble flying and dust billowing everywhere it went.

Qingyu's figure flashed in place.

Body Flicker Technique!

His body transformed into a blurry afterimage, dodging more than ten meters away before the shockwave of Heaven Kick of Pain arrived.

Boom!

The shockwave from Heaven Kick of Pain slammed into the spot where Qingyu had just stood, creating a crater three to four meters deep.

After dodging, Qingyu continued fighting Tsunade.

The battle between the two was like a raging tornado, wreaking havoc on the Training Ground.

"Happy!"

Tsunade spoke.

She hadn't fought so exhilaratingly in a long time.

Because of her Hemophobia, Tsunade almost never went to the front lines of battle again.

He spends his days drinking and sleeping, occasionally helping out at Konoha Hospital with cases that don't require much bloodshed, and accompanying Qingyu on missions.

Only Qingyu.

This kid is incredibly strong, and his recovery ability far surpasses that of ordinary people.

Tsunade can be a little more unrestrained; she doesn't need to worry about accidentally crippling someone with a single punch and having to heal them herself.

Moreover, Qingyu is fast, has excellent swordsmanship, and possesses a variety of Ninjutsu. Fighting her is a back-and-forth affair, unlike others who are easily defeated.

Tsunade hadn't experienced this exhilarating feeling in a long time.

[Collectible trait detected: Tsunade's Euphoria]

[D-Rank Trait: Tsunade's Euphoria]

[Effect: Increases the Senju Lineage by 30%.]

[Synthesis: Intimate Contact with Tsunade will upgrade to a higher-level trait.]

Qingyu almost lost her composure as she looked at the words that appeared before her.

What does "close contact with Tsunade" mean?

Several possible interpretations flashed through his mind in an instant, each one making him feel that the system's judgment criteria were somewhat absurd.

Could it be possible to analyze Tsunade's bloodline and then somehow enhance one's own?

Qingyu suppressed this question in her heart and refocused her attention on the battle.

Tsunade's attacks grew increasingly fierce.

Yūhi Kurenai stood at the edge of the Training Ground, watching the two figures colliding repeatedly in the middle of the field.

The battle between Tsunade and Qingyu is a completely different world from her sparring with Qingyu.

Meanwhile, Sarutobi Asuma's eyelids twitched as he watched.

"Monster!"

Sarutobi Asuma spoke.

Graveyard of Mountains.

"This is truly amazing! Young Master Qingyu is incredibly skilled!"

"Not only did he copy Kakashi's Ninjutsu at a glance, but he could also go Tsunade -to-toe with Tsunade."

"Was Lord Madara this powerful at this age back then?"

Madara Uchiha looked at White Zetsu.

"Snort."

He didn't answer White Zetsu's question, but simply let out a soft snort.

"That's right, that's right, this is what a real ninja is! Those who only know how to hide in the shadows and shoot arrows, use poison, or use puppets don't deserve to be called ninjas at all."

Another White Zetsu shook its head and said.

He likes the straightforward and brutal style of characters like Qingyu and Tsunade; it feels very visceral and impactful to watch.

Madara Uchiha nodded slightly.

Good.

A fake ninja, proficient in all sorts of disguise, stealth techniques, and assassination skills.

A true ninja must face challenges head-on, taking them down one by one with a single punch.

Back then, when did he and Hashirama never clash head-on?

Tobirama did like to play dirty tricks, but what was the result?

Snort.

Of course, Madara Uchiha did not completely deny the value of assassination and infiltration.

Ninjas are a profession that operates in the shadows, achieving maximum results with minimal cost – this is the wisdom of ninjas.

But he just didn't like Senju Tobirama's style.

Qingyu's violent fighting style reminded Madara Uchiha in the Sengoku Musou.

Let's stop here.

Tsunade.

Today she basically loosened up her body, treating it as a form of exercise.

[Collectible Trait Detected: Dance King's Bearing]

[C-Rank Trait: Dance King's Bearing]

[Effect: When there are two or more enemies nearby, the range of Ninjutsu power is increased by 60%.]

Qingyu looked at the words that appeared before her eyes, and her heart stirred slightly.

The Dance King's Bearing?

He thought about it and found the name of this trait quite interesting.

The more people there are, the stronger the Ninjutsu becomes; this is practically designed for area-of-effect Ninjutsu.

But who dropped it?

Qingyu looked around.

Yūhi Kurenai, Rin Nohara, Obito, Kakashi, Might Guy, Sarutobi Asuma, Tsunade, and Shizune —there were indeed quite a few people on the Training Ground.

It was probably triggered by one of them during the battle just now.

Qingyu snapped out of his thoughts and put away his Sharingan.

He had a feeling it was dropped by Madara Uchiha.

Could they be spying on us again?

Sunagakure.

"Grandma, are you saying that Qingyu is an extremely talented genius?"

Scorpion, with short red hair, sat by the window, toying with an exquisite puppet joint part in his hand.

His face still retained the delicate features of a young man, but his eyes held a depth that belied his age.

Chiyo sat opposite him, her aged hands holding a cup of hot tea.

"He might become the next Minato Namikaze."

Chiyo nodded and took a sip of tea.

"Grandma, are there any other geniuses in other ninja villages?"

Chiyo was puzzled as to why her beloved grandson suddenly asked about any geniuses in the village and inquired about other ninja villages.

But she still patiently answered his questions one by one.

--

Chiyo looked at her grandson's focused profile and felt a complex mix of emotions welling up inside her.

Her son and daughter-in-law died at the hands of White Fang of the Leaf. That night, Sasori lost her parents, and she also lost her son and daughter-in-law.

Although ninjas always experience life and death, the most painful thing is for parents to bury their children.

This also fueled Chiyo's deep resentment towards Hatake Sakumo.

Unfortunately, she never had the chance to seek revenge on Hatake Sakumo.

And what about scorpions?

Chiyo's gaze fell on her grandson.

Scorpio, who was once happy and fulfilled, became introverted after losing his parents overnight.

Although his talent as a puppeteer was also displayed at that time, he learned the most difficult puppetry techniques in Sunagakure at a young age and became proficient in both Black Secret Technique and White Secret Technique.

They even developed and improved many new types of puppets.

All the puppeteers believed that Sasori had inherited Chiyo's talent and would inevitably become a powerful ninja who would support Sunagakure.

But Chiyo knew that her poor grandson only wanted to use puppets to warm his heart.

Because his first work was of his own son and daughter-in-law.

A puppet named "Father and Mother".

Later, Sasori even began using some enemy ninjas as "Human Puppet," and Chiyo knew that something must be destroying and twisting her grandson's heart.

So even though Chiyo was quite old, she still traveled all over the Shinobi World, maintaining peace in the Land of Wind.

She knew that war would break out again sooner or later, and the contradictions between countries had accumulated to an irreconcilable point.

The situation must be stabilized as much as possible before war breaks out, because once the war begins, she will have no time to study how to revive the puppets.

"It's nothing, Grandma."

The scorpion shook its head.

"Get some rest, Grandma's going to take care of some things in the village."

Chiyo spoke.

Scorpion nodded, watching Chiyo's figure disappear outside the door.

The moment the door closed, Scorpion took a small glass bottle from his sleeve.

"We need to speed things up."

Scorpion's secret passage.

The bottle contains a clear liquid.

This was a toxin he had spent a long time concocting; it was colorless and odorless, and its effects were sudden and without warning. Even the most skilled medical-nin in Sunagakure couldn't detect it.

If this toxin is continuously added in minute amounts to the Third Kazekage's diet, once a certain dose is accumulated, the strongest Kazekage of Sunagakure will quietly die on an ordinary night.

At that time, he will possess an extremely powerful Human Puppet, the puppet of the Third Kazekage who possesses the Magnet Release Kekkei Genkai.

It's important to know that Magnet Release's Kekkei Genkai is actually very rare in the Shinobi World, let alone at the level of the Kazekage.

He had originally planned to turn Pakura into a puppet as well.

The bloodline limit of Scorch Release Kekkei Genkai is equally tempting; the ability to instantly evaporate the water in an opponent's body, combined with the Third Kazekage's Magnet Release, would make for a perfect collectible.

However, both the Third Kazekage and Pakura are very famous, so if one of them is harmed, it will be very difficult to harm the other.

After careful consideration, Sasori chose the Third Kazekage.

"There are other ninja village materials waiting for me."

A glint of fanaticism flashed in Scorpion's eyes.

Flesh and blood, suffering and pain, will eventually decay.

Only what is eternal is art!

June.

In the room, Qingyu was gathering Chakra.

He could clearly feel that the pool of Chakra, which had been accumulating over a long period of time, had finally become completely stable.

Qingyu has a diamond-shaped pattern on her forehead.

"The Yin Seal is complete."

Qingyu opened her eyes and touched the diamond-shaped mark on her forehead.

Qingyu clenched his fist, feeling the extra Chakra within his body.

This Chakra is normally stored in the pool of Yin Seal and does not consume the amount of Chakra in his normal meridian system.

When he unleashes his chakra all at once during battle, his Chakra reserves will increase several times over in a short period of time.

But simply storing Chakra is not enough.

The "Yin Seal" is essentially just a box.

The greatest strength of this technique lies in its combination with "Ninja Art: Creation Rebirth: Strength of a Hundred Technique".

Upon activating the "Yin Seal," the accumulated Chakra is automatically converted into medical Chakra, providing continuous full-body healing to the user.

Limb regeneration, internal organ repair, and wound healing—as long as Chakra isn't depleted, he can be passively healed indefinitely.

Qingyu was about to go to the casino to learn more Ninjutsu from Tsunade when the door was pushed open from the outside as he was changing his shoes in the entryway.

Tsunade strode in.

"Sister Tsunade?"

Qingyu straightened up, his gaze falling on Tsunade's face.

Her face held a serious expression.

"What happened?"

Qingyu inquired.

The Third Kazekage has gone missing.

Tsunade spoke.

Qingyu was startled.

The Third Kazekage disappeared much earlier than he remembered.

In the original timeline, the disappearance of the Third Kazekage was the catalyst for the Third Shinobi World War, and Sunagakure fell into chaos due to the loss of its strongest warrior.

Taking advantage of the situation, Kumogakure launched an attack, and other ninja villages followed suit, thus igniting a massive war.

But now, that fuse has been lit prematurely.

"That shouldn't be the case----"

Qingyu quickly made up her mind.

Sasori acted faster than he expected. Perhaps the previous encounter in the Land of Rivers had triggered some changes within Sunagakure, or perhaps Sasori himself had accelerated the poisoning process for some reason.

Whatever the reason, the result is already before us.

Is Sunagakure in complete chaos right now?

Qingyu spoke.

"Pretty much. They even suspect that it was Konoha that assassinated the Third Kazekage."

Tsunade.

Assassinating the shadows of an entire village is tantamount to declaring war.

How could Konoha Kichi do something so foolish as to start a war?

In Tsunade's opinion, this must belong to the neighboring ninja village.

Or perhaps it was all orchestrated by Sunagakure itself, simply lacking a pretext to launch an attack elsewhere.

So, do we have a new task?

Qingyu likes donburi.

"Yes, there is, but it has nothing to do with the Land of Wind. The old man has issued a new quest, requiring us to go to the Land of Demons to treat the daimyo of the Land of Demons."

"Tsunade said."

"The Land of Demons?"

Qingyu instantly remembered the remote country from the movie.

"The daimyo of the Land of Demons seems to have contracted some kind of disease; he has aged considerably, and the Mōryō there appear to have broken free from their seals."

"The priestess Miroku has entrusted us with the task of healing the daimyo of the Land of Demons."

Tsunade spoke.

"Treatment?"

Qingyu, however, was thinking about something else entirely.

Based on information from the theatrical version, the Daimyo of the Land of Demons is probably the one who broke the seal on the Mōryō.

So, could this so-called illness be due to possession?

Immediately, Qingyu wondered what traits a priestess or Mōryō might drop.
