Konan's control over Chakra is top-tier even by the standards of the Shinobi World.

Simultaneously manipulating so many pieces of paper, deforming, folding, and disguising them, with all sorts of fancy ways to play, is truly a pinnacle of skill.

This indicates that her mental energy is exceptional; otherwise, it would be impossible for her to achieve this. It's also possible that witnessing her beloved's tragic death triggered a surge in her mental strength.

This allows you to skip the basic steps.

When this secret technique was handed to Konan, she was very pleased, as her hard work over the past few months had finally paid off.

If it weren't for her persistent efforts to offer warmth despite the wind and rain, would the other party have willingly given it to her?

So this is all the result of her own hard work!

As the scroll was unfurled, the first thing that caught her eye was a black Uzumaki pattern, which she almost mistook for a secret technique passed down through generations of the Uzumaki Clan.

You can't blame her for thinking that way, because the Uzumaki Clan are experts in this field.

After she finished reading the entire secret technique, she was somewhat skeptical because the ideas described were a bit far-fetched, and she had never heard of many of the terms.

Even Fire Release Ninjutsu requires Hand Seals and Chakra manipulation to create flames; now you're telling her to ignite it directly with her mental power.

Thinking of this, Konan took a candle out of the drawer and placed it on the table.

Aoki Tsuki smiled slightly. He could do this many years ago, and now his spiritual energy is so refined that he can do it easily without being in the dark.

His eyes widened, and a flame appeared out of thin air, lighting the candle.

"It actually... caught fire..." Konan exclaimed in surprise, "How did you do that?"

"It's very simple. Just condense your spiritual energy to a certain level and imagine it as a high-temperature burning flame. This is the essence of Yin Release."

The Yin Power, originating from the spiritual energy that governs 'imagination', creates form from nothingness.

The more you think about it, the more you'll discover the mysteries of Yin Release.

"I see..." Konan's eyes lit up.

If Aoki Tsuki's secret technique is truly effective, she can not only use it to build a mental barrier, but also greatly increase her mental energy.

After that, her Chakra will increase, allowing her to control more paper pieces simultaneously for faster and wider-ranging attacks.

The art of paper disguise can be taken to a whole new level.

Thinking of this, Konan secretly glanced at Aoki Tsuki. As expected of the man she valued, he really understood her too well.

'My judgment was surprisingly good!'

Aoki Tsuki, unaware of Konan's thoughts, began explaining the details of cultivating the secret technique and the characteristics that would appear at each stage.

He improved the secret method; lighting the candle was just the beginning, and he expanded it to many more levels.

The system is divided into four levels: point, line, plane, and volume, ultimately constructing a virtual mental space that simulates the real world.

Judging from the scene where the Sage of Six Paths summoned Naruto and Sasuke, there were not only water ripples in the opponent's mental space, but also the sound of dripping water. The water ripples could even project the memories of the original body like a movie.

He preached in a dream; his skill was truly miraculous.

He just needs to follow the examples set by his predecessors and imitate them.

The so-called secret method is just a thin layer of paper. Once it's explained clearly and the underlying principles are understood, you'll find it's not magical at all; you just didn't expect it to be possible in this way.

The Lady Angel successfully lit the candle in just one week.

When Aoki Tsuki found out, he felt terrible. How long had it taken him? A year and a half, I think. He was so proud of his superior mental strength.

That day, when Konan brought Nagato his meal, she overheard Nagato remark, " Konan, your technique has improved again. That clone almost fooled my eyes."

It turns out the person in front of her was a Paper Clone; Konan's test results are here.

"Yes, I've been practicing a Secret Mind Technique lately. Could you take a look at it when I see results?" Konan said.

She couldn't learn all the abilities of the Rinnegan, but she could easily use it to aid Rinnegan cultivation. In terms of progress in this secret technique, she was destined to surpass someone else.

Aoki Tsuki certainly understood the rule that once an original's formula is leaked, it will be wiped out by counterfeiters.

However, his most notable characteristic is that he doesn't follow the conventional path and prefers to take shortcuts.

If an ordinary person without Kekkei Genkai, and not a genius, is also honest and unassuming, what the hell can they possibly achieve?

In the process of writing down the Secret Mind Technique and organizing the knowledge points for Konan, he gained new inspiration.

This is what is commonly referred to as "reviewing the old to learn the new."

"Why would I insist on using Chakra to create Thousand-Armed Kannon in reality? How foolish..."

Although the working principle of the Susanoo of the Mangekyō Sharingan is unknown, it is definitely not something that can be temporarily constructed by the user.

This ability is a natural talent residing in the eyes, inherited through bloodline.

It's like having a program pre-installed; once you open your eyes, the skill is unlocked, and then you can activate it directly, saving you the trouble of casting a spell.

He's still here thinking about how to use Yin Release to gradually build and shape it. By the time he actually uses it in battle, he'll have been killed long ago.

It turns out the problem was with how it was opened!

"The correct approach is to pre-construct the model within the mental space, project it directly into the real world when needed, and then input Chakra to activate it."

Only in this way can we achieve 'instant boot'.

Aoki Tsuki has hated her mediocrity more than once.

A genius might come up with this idea immediately, but he would need a long time, take many detours, and rack his brains to finally come up with it.

I act on my thoughts immediately. Having studied this technique for a long time, I am very familiar with the model, not to mention my vast and profound inner world.

It turns out that he already possessed the basic qualifications.

In the spiritual realm, a thousand- Thousand-Armed Kannon instantly took shape and stood in the center, its size determined by the mind.

A swastika symbol on her forehead burst forth with dazzling golden light, illuminating Guanyin as sacred and inviolable.

With hands clasped together, " Thousand-Armed Kannon - Open"

Buzz...

Above the rain-shrouded lake, a Senju Buddha statue, tens of meters tall, suddenly appeared and rapidly expanded as Chakra was channeled into it.

"Certainly!"

The Buddha statue eventually grew to a height of 100 meters, which was the limit of Aoki Tsuki's own Chakra without using Natural Energy.

"Hahaha... I did it! I finally did it... Hahaha..."

A burst of wild laughter erupted from the lakeside.

In the West District tower, Nagato's eyes widened suddenly, and he exclaimed in surprise, "This feeling... is so powerful, what kind of technique is this?"

"What's wrong...? Have enemies invaded?" Konan asked.

Nagato shook his head. "It's Yue. He seemed to have just used an amazing technique. I feel like this guy keeps getting stronger."

Even Nagato noticed the problem.

"That's just the kind of person he is." Konan was used to it.

The other party is either getting stronger or on their way to getting stronger. Fortunately, she has also found her path, and now she needs to work hard to catch up.

After successfully performing the Thousand-Armed Kannon, Aoki Tsuki could only maintain it for two minutes before collapsing from exhaustion.

"We also need to continue to enhance our spiritual energy and expand our meridians."

He had made a breakthrough in his technique and was in high spirits. Even the wind felt sweet on the way back. Next, he would study his lotus throne.

That's right, he also wants to control the components precisely, just like Susanoo.

The Thousand-Armed Kannon who activates this technique sits on a lotus platform, and he separates the lotus platform from the rest of the body.

Susanoo can defend using only his ribs, and he should follow suit, using only his lotus platform to protect himself when facing an enemy's sneak attack.

Also, can the Senju Hand Seals? Madara's Susanoo can summon meteors by Hand Seals with multiple arms simultaneously.

He didn't ask for much; he just wanted all his thousand arms to be able to Hand Seals together, not even a thousand times larger, but ten times larger enough to achieve instantaneous Ninjutsu.

Furthermore, could the Senju technique be merged into a single giant hand, Buddha's Divine Palm or something similar?

Is it possible to change the Buddha's appearance to one's own, transforming it into the Dharma of Heaven and Earth, so that when the Six Paths Level Chibaku Tensei is unleashed, the vaguely visible Buddha image seems to be the size of a planet?

In an instant, the cells in his brain collided intensely, and all sorts of inspirations flashed through his mind, but unfortunately, he had no time to put these ideas into practice.

His vacation was over.

Inside the office, Konan sat in her chair, her expression returning to its usual indifferent state, perfectly embodying the saying "one who has no desires is invincible."

"Lord Konan, please give me your orders. I'm so tired of working, I can't wait to get out there and make something of myself."

Even if you're unwilling in your heart, you still say nice things.

Since we're going out to do missions anyway, why not take the initiative? At least it'll look better on the surface.

"Having a subordinate like you is truly a comfort. There just happens to be a mission here where you can really showcase your talents."

For the first time, Konan praised Aoki Tsuki to his face. Perhaps it's a case of being influenced by one's surroundings, but now she can occasionally say a few things against her will.

"Assassination mission?"

"Assassinations... Scorpion and his team can handle that. It would be a waste of your talents to ask you to do it. You're better at... intelligence work."

In Konan's opinion, if someone's specialty is lying, then that person should become a spy.

When I first met Aoki Tsuki, he was involved in arms smuggling and intelligence selling, and he also had a side job at Root.

"But my main profession is ninja..."

Hearing that he was going to gather intelligence again, Aoki Tsuki felt a headache coming on; he genuinely disliked the profession of espionage.

He wanted to live in the sunlight, not in the shadows of the Amegakure.

Now, as the captain of the Amegakure Guard, he lives in constant fear and never dares to gather the entire team in his personal capacity, not even for a meal.

If someone simultaneously possesses the identities of both Fugaku and Danzo, it seems like they'll have no future.

"Ninjas are meant to walk in the shadows, remaining nameless. Your name is already legendary in the underworld, making you even more appealing to those who live in darkness."

"Ah... I actually have dark traits?" Aoki Tsuki looked incredulous.

Don't underestimate yourself; I believe you can do it.

"No, I don't believe in myself..."

Konan pretended not to hear and continued, "For the village, for the Land of Rain, for peace in the Shinobi World, Yue, are you willing to accept this secret mission?"

What else can be done at this point? That despicable woman.

In just a few years, they not only learned how to make empty promises, but also mastered how to make both 'soft' and 'hard' promises.

Aoki Tsuki stood at attention, his right arm outstretched, pointing diagonally upwards, and solemnly declared, "Pain!!"

"Ha, you're definitely born for this line of work."

Konan smiled, very satisfied with Aoki Tsuki's performance. Xiao had been around for so many years, and she had never thought of designing a move to enhance the sense of ritual.

He secretly decided that he would join the outer circle of Akatsuki in the future. The first thing he would do was to make a mark on his Forehead Protector, and the second thing he would do was to use this action to show his loyalty to the leader (Pain).

'Truly a man worthy of rising to the position of Grand Deacon in the Jashin Cult.'
