Mystery

Shiro wasn't lying about this; he genuinely wasn't sure. All he knew was the Jashin Ritual, but what if they knew other Ninjutsu?

Moreover, several decades have passed since that era, and no one knows if the conditions have changed. If the current demand is for a different medium, then there will be trouble.

Therefore, Shiro could only warn them to be careful of curse-type Ninjutsu.

"Is that all?" Shikaki asked, frowning.

"That's all. There's not much recorded in ancient books either."

"How about this, let's rest first and talk about it tomorrow. Gray Snake also needs time to gather intelligence. Let's go and rest first."

"Well, that's the only way." Shikaki thought for a moment and agreed with Nakamura's suggestion. After all, he lacked intelligence and couldn't formulate a plan.

"Okay, you guys go ahead, I'll go see if there's anything I need here."

"Okay, then be careful. If there's any danger, make a big commotion, and we'll come to your aid quickly."

"Don't worry, Captain, what danger could there be here?"

"We still need to be vigilant, remember that. Let's go rest now."

"Okay, I understand. Goodbye."

After saying goodbye to Nakamura and the Nakamura, Shiro wandered around the market in Yugakure, hoping to find something suitable.

This is all preparation for the creation of the Magic Crest.

With the help of Medea's Magecraft knowledge and system after the Projection of the Rule Breaker, the creation of the Magic Crest is no longer a problem.

The most important issue now is the materials. Shiro currently has enough funds to buy Chakra Metal, but that's only the main material.

Creating Magic Crest requires other auxiliary materials, and in addition, it is necessary to suppress the rejection reaction after transplantation, so a lot of materials are needed.

The most troublesome part is that some materials simply don't exist in the Shinobi World, so Shiro has to find substitutes for them, which makes the process quite complicated.

Fortunately, there aren't too many of these. Shiro only has two relatively hard-to-find materials left, so Shiro goes to the market whenever he has free time.

Let's see if there will be any unexpected gains. Unfortunately, Shiro's luck is only C, and Shiro hasn't encountered it yet.

However, he was not discouraged, after all, it was just a stroke of luck.

As for how Shiro determines whether a material can be replaced, he naturally uses the Magecraft's method.

"Tracing, begin."

Basic matter explained

Material composition explanation.

In this way, Shiro used the basic elements of Reinforcement Magecraft to Analysis the composition and function of a material the instant it came into contact with it, thereby determining whether it was suitable.

This was still quite quick for Shiro at his current pace, so Shiro soon explored the entire area, but ultimately still couldn't find it.

In the end, Shiro could only go back to rest. After all, even if he found it now, he couldn't start making the Magic Crest immediately. He wasn't too disappointed, since he had only come to try his luck.

The next morning, Shiro and the others stood guard at the table, waiting for Gray Snake's intelligence; now it only had one location left to investigate.

A moment later, "The Gray Snake has finished its reconnaissance."

"What was the result?"

"There are people at only these three locations, but Gray Snake isn't sure if they're bandits or something else," Shiro said, pointing out three locations on the map.

"Three? Shiro, Isshin, Toyota, I need you to go and investigate this time. Taichi and Yue, you two will be responsible for protecting Isshin and Toyota respectively. Shiro, are you sure you can handle it alone?"

"Don't worry, it's fine. I'm far enough away that I definitely won't be detected."

"That's good. Mr. Nakamura and I are going somewhere; I need to verify some things."

"No problem."

"Then, let's go!"

"Yes!"

To get a better view, Shiro specifically chose a spot with a mountain nearby for reconnaissance. This was the most concealed location, and at this distance, no one except Byakugan could see him!

Even the Rinnegan is the same; it's not that it's weak, it's just that its focus is different.

Therefore, Shiro didn't really conceal his movements along the way. After all, Shiro's direction was quite remote, and he wasn't wearing Forehead Protector. As a result, Shiro reached the mountaintop without attracting anyone's attention.

However, just to be on the safe side, Shiro still Projection Invisible Cloak to cover himself up.

Then, they leisurely began to observe.

Of course, Shiro is a lazy person's approach. By doing it this way, he can only confirm the nature of the other party in the end, and he still has to go there that night.

This was just to be on the safe side. After all, Shiro only had a rudimentary understanding of those unorthodox assassination techniques involving infiltration; his true expertise lay in the more orthodox, unparalleled assassination methods.

On the other hand, Toyota's method was much more ninja-like. He was currently using Sensory Ninjutsu to probe the enemy camp from a distance.

Meanwhile, Uchiha Yue stood guard nearby to prevent any unexpected incidents.

Isshin's method was similar to Toyota's: releasing insects near the enemy's base to gather intelligence.

However, Taichi, standing to the side, felt his hair stand on end. He was terrified of this thing every time he saw it; he just couldn't get used to it.

Taichi finally understood why Uchiha Yue had rushed to team up with Toyota first.

While the three of them were observing silently, Shikaki and Nakamura arrived at an abandoned basement.

"Shikaki, what are we doing here? This place looks abandoned."

"I'm just here to confirm something, but this place is suspicious, teacher."

"Hmm? Indeed, these messy marks seem to have been deliberately placed; he must have been trying to hide something."

"Yes, that's what I think too. But we can't find anything here anymore. Let's go back and call Shiro to take a look. His summoning beast should be able to detect a lot of things."

"That's right, I remember Shiro also has a Ninjutsu that can recreate images of a certain area over a period of time. Let's go find him."

"Whoosh!"

At that moment, several Shuriken flew out from the shadows and shot towards Shikaki. They were covered with dense Wind Release Chakra, clearly indicating that the opponent intended to kill Shikaki and Nakamura directly!

Unfortunately, Shikaki and Nakamura already knew of each other's existence. Their words were merely a ploy to lure the other out; they were prepared to use the Substitution Technique at any moment.

Therefore, what the other party cut was only two pieces of wood, but at the same time, they also revealed their position.

"Shadow Possession Jutsu!"

Earth Release: Double Suicide Decapitation Technique!

At almost the same time, Shikaki and Nakamura both subdued one of them.

"Haha, that's pretty impressive, Shikaki. Your opponent was at least a Jonin level, and you managed to subdue him in one move."

"So come help me! I can't hold on much longer!" Hearing Nakamura's praise, Shikaki was not happy at all. Instead, he growled at Nakamura in a low voice.

"Tsk tsk, coming right up."

"Sealing Jutsu: Heavy Sealing of Limbs!"
