Everyone had witnessed the scene where Mukai and Pakura worked together to melt the tunnel.
At this point, scorching the Earth Prison Dome still looks cool, but the sense of awe is much less overwhelming.
However, over time, the entire rock cavity was slowly filled with molten lava.
The lava that should have been dripping was instead being pushed outward Mukai the spherical Wind Release.
In this process of melting, cooling, and then melting again,
The original structure of the rock was completely tempered.
The entire massive Earth Prison Dome was bound by Nagato's Chakra on the outside.
The cavity, formed by the compression of Wind Release, becomes thinner and thinner, and also more and more resistant to high temperatures.
The originally dark red cavity walls could withstand the 1,500-degree temperature of Pakura.
"Alright, Teacher Pakura, you can withdraw the Scorch Release: Fireball now!"
Konan, it's your turn!
Konan nodded, and with a wave of her hands, the paper cranes with bulging bellies that she had prepared in advance flew into the cavity.
The insides of these paper cranes are filled with sifted white clay.
The origami cranes were instantly carbonized by the high temperature as soon as they entered the scorching cavity.
Thunderstorm!
Mukai directly threw three fully charged supercapacitors into the special Earth Prison Dome, activating their self-destruct mode.
boom!
A bright burst of charge caused the white clay powder inside the cavity to be embedded in the semi-molten inner wall by the explosive charge.
Enveloped by the Wind Release technique, lightning instantly fused the white clay powder with the refined Earth Prison Dome.
This forms a more heat-resistant and wear-resistant inner wall.
"Alright! Nagato, hang in there! Get ready to start cooling and solidifying!"
Nagato had plenty of Chakra, and he maintained the Earth Prison Dome without much difficulty.
As the entire cavity gradually cooled, a huge high-temperature resistant container finally took shape.
"Phew! Finally finished!"
Mukai wiped the sweat from his forehead before stepping forward to direct the others to install the remaining equipment.
This Shinobi World- themed cement-fired container is now complete.
In the bizarre world of Hokage, there is actually cement.
However, they are all generated by Ninjutsu such as Kekkei Genkai, and are basically special products of the Land of Earth.
Not only are they expensive, but the quality also varies greatly.
As a major infrastructure nation, how could the Mukai possibly purchase such expensive and substandard cement?
What do you do if you need cement? Burn it?
We've already tested a pretty good ratio, and now we can use this huge container to calcine the cement!
Nowadays, cement rotary kilns in cement plants are mostly cylindrical, ranging from several meters to tens or hundreds of meters in diameter.
However, in the Shinobi World, the heating methods are different, so there's no need to use this method.
With Teacher Pakura providing the heating, the temperature is stable and the results are excellent. Why not take advantage of it?
As limestone, clay, Iron Sand, and other materials were added to the kiln in proportion, Mukai patted the Pakura, which was still examining this enormous creation.
"Come on, Teacher Pakura, your chance to practice has begun."
Two hours with 900-degree flames, half an hour with 1500-degree flames—you're capable of handling such difficult controls, right?
Wearing the White Phoenix Mecha, Pakura crossed his arms and snorted through his nose:
"My foolish disciple!"
Do you think I, Pakura, the Scorch Release, am just a figurehead?
Today I'll show you what it truly means to be a master of fire!
Scorch Release: Extremely Steaming Murder Technique!
Dozens of orange fireballs were generated and flew directly into the slowly rotating giant cavity.
" Teacher Pakura's skills have improved again!"
Controlling so many fireballs at the same time is amazing!
As expected, we still have to leave it to Teacher Pakura. I have immense respect for him!
Pakura held his head high, as proud as a victorious little rooster.
She tossed her orange sideburns smugly and said triumphantly:
Go do your thing!
This level of Chakra manipulation is nothing to me!
Mukai glared at Konan, who was almost laughing out loud, before leading her away from there.
Just then, Scorpion emerged from the puppet workshop, carrying a small scroll:
" Mukai, the information passed on by my mother-in-law,"
The Shukaku Trial has been set for three months from now.
We've already started acquiring wasteland according to your planned locations.
My mother-in-law asked me to ask you if you have enough money.
Do you need her to help you raise some money?
Mukai took the intelligence scroll, glanced at it, pondered the timeline, and asked his part-time secretary, Konan:
" Konan, take a look at the schedule for the next three months."
Konan took out a Shikigami scroll from her bosom, hovered it in front of her, and flipped through it:
"Ah... Today is the day Mukai Xiangjun arranged for the production of cement equipment."
The day after tomorrow is for verifying wind power generation.
Next week we need to go and solidify the new tunnel...
The fortress on this side of the border should be completed within the next two months at most.
Mukai nodded. In just two months, this base camp had become strong enough to defend itself.
There are still three months left, which is plenty of time.
He nodded:
"Three months is not too bad. Please thank Elder Chiyo for me, Scorpion."
Please ask her to cover the expenses first. We'll continue refining Chakra Metal once the fortress construction begins in the next few days.
The difficulties are only temporary; once the fortress is built, we can finally breathe a sigh of relief.
"By the way, Scorpion, how's the puppet workshop coming along?"
The scorpion happily displayed a delicate gear in its hand:
I really don't know what you're thinking.
They can actually make such amazing processing machinery.
The level of precision in its production, and the ability to further refine it—something that puppeteers of the past could hardly have imagined.
Mukai took the gear, examined it carefully, and found it to be indeed very ingenious.
"It's nothing, just like your Crow with added compute nodes."
We now have electricity and computing nodes.
Combining them with machinery, wouldn't that just create a puppet with rudimentary intelligence?
Elder Chiyo has helped us so much, let's make that special puppet and send it over together later!
Just then, Konan suddenly reminded him:
" Mukai, it seems like you haven't been home in a long time. Don't you really want to go back and visit?"
Hearing Konan's reminder, Mukai was indeed very troubled.
It's definitely not good to never go back. After thinking for a moment, he said:
"Alright, once the fortress starts construction, Konan, how about you come back to the village with me?"
Konan's face instantly turned red:
"Ah... this..."
Mukai, isn't this too presumptuous of you?
Mukai pinched her cheek and comforted her:
"It's okay! They're all very easy to get along with."
We'll bring some gifts to visit them when we get back, but we won't stay overnight.
"Overnight... overnight? We have to stay overnight?"
Steam rose from Konan's face, and her eyes became somewhat glazed.
Oh my god, the cool and aloof Sister Nan is actually so cute!
He continued to tease Konan, while Scorpion beside him made a disgusted sound:
"You two, tone it down a bit!"
