Chapter 118 A Prodigy at Sixteen
Kannabi Bridge – this name is familiar to any veteran Naruto fan.
But Shiba Kiyokawa still doesn't know exactly where the bridge is.
He even had a question: given the ninjas' mobility, how could a bridge possibly become a lifeline for supplies?
These questions require more information to answer.
However, the Kannabi Bridge is located in the Land of Grass, and it is no longer convenient to go there.
Nothing in this world is ever perfect. Before, when he could freely enter and leave the Land of Grass, Shiba Kiyokawa was busy outwitting Danzo and deceiving and killing Hanzo.
By the time he finally managed to save himself and free his hands, the Land of Grass had already taken the shape of Iwagakure.
Now that the Hidden Stone Village ninjas have completely occupied the Land of Grass, it has become extremely difficult to conduct any reconnaissance.
Before obtaining Yakushi Nonou, Shiba Kiyokawa originally planned to send one or two Pain units to conduct armed reconnaissance after Nagato produced Pain.
However, now, the infiltration of Yakushi Nonou is undoubtedly a more discreet and safer option.
As luck would have it, he had just finished arranging the work for the pharmacist Nonou and was thinking of Nagato when Nagato actually came to find him.
Nagato had been in seclusion for a long time, and now he has finally achieved initial success in his "divine skill"!
"Qinghe, my initial version of Pain is complete!"
As soon as Nagato entered, he said happily, just like a model kit enthusiast who had just finished assembling a model and was eager to share it.
This change made Shiba Kiyokazu very happy.
Young people should be more lively like this; why be as bitter and resentful as in the original work?
But as the famous green-skinned orc Grom Hellscream famously said, "So what's the price?"
Everything has a price.
The price Nagato paid for becoming more cheerful was that Pain's Six Paths were reduced in size...
In the original work, Nagato completely disregarded his own safety and went to extreme lengths to complete the Six Paths of Pain.
Now that he is optimistic and hasn't gone to extremes, he naturally wouldn't do the kind of ruthless work that drains him dry.
Nagato completed three Pain bodies in one go this time.
These are the Hungry Ghost Path, which can devour chakra; the Human Path, which can read memories; and the Hell Path, used to repair other Pain.
He abandoned the animal realm and the asura realm from the original work.
The summoning technique of the Animal Path is no longer a necessity for Nagato: the hydrangea is still alive and well, and he can easily capture a summoning beast for the little girl to contract.
Nagato, who still lives in the sunlight, has now learned to trust the power of his partners.
As for the Asura Path, which uses firearms, the Land of Rain's current technology is not yet capable of producing it.
In the original story, the Pain suit was completed several years later when the technology matured, but now Nagato has simply removed it from the development list.
This time, in addition to sharing his joy at completing the large figure, he came to see Shiba Kiyokawa to continue seeking materials.
"Kiyokawa, can you give me Hanzo's body? I want to create a core puppet that truly inherits most of the Rinnegan's abilities; I plan to name it Tendou."
Since Yahiko hasn't given up on treatment, Nagato naturally can no longer use Yahiko to create the Heavenly Path.
Therefore, Hanzo the Salamander has become his current first choice.
The great demigod is still trying his best!
Shiba Kiyokawa's first concern was, "Is your body still able to handle it?"
Nagato nodded and assured him, "Don't worry, Kiyokawa, I've thought it through. I won't go to extremes. I can still handle the burden of four Pain bodies."
Shiba Kiyokawa looked at him for a couple more seconds to make sure Nagato wasn't putting on a brave face anymore before he finally agreed.
"I can give you Hanzo, but you must use the poison sac with caution."
In addition, during the rest of the production process, you will need to come to me every day for a full-body check-up. I will use medical ninjutsu to check on your physical condition at all times.
Once I determine that your body is overloaded, you must immediately stop making Payne!
Nagato is currently Akatsuki's most reliable combat force.
Rather than replicating the Six Paths of Pain, Shiba Kiyokawa would prefer Nagato to live a healthy life for more than a decade.
Seeing that Shiba Kiyokawa's expression was more serious than ever before, Nagato nodded hurriedly.
"Yes, Chief!"
"Stop being so glib. You only call me 'leader' at times like this. Also, here's the sword. You can give it to Tendo later. Hanzo was a swordsman when he was alive."
With that, Shiba Kiyokawa handed the Kusanagi sword to Nagato.
He already has a famous sword that Hanzo donated after his death. He is now very comfortable using that katana, Shiba Kiyokawa, and has even named it "Siming".
Shiba Kiyokawa, who had no immediate plans to change his weapon, simply handed the Kusanagi sword to Nagato.
Having settled Hiruko, provided shelter for Yakushi Nonou, and arranged for the spread of rumors to attack Konoha, Shiba Kiyokawa then distributed the last spoils of the previous battle.
The gains from the accidental battle with Orochimaru earlier have now been fully digested.
Nagato looked surprised when he received the sword.
"Where did you get such a fine sword? You went out to rob again without me?"
Shiba Kiyokawa gave Nagato a smacked tap on the head.
"Don't talk to us like we're bandits, we're a legitimate organization!"
Nagato chuckled as he dodged.
At that moment, his smile, bathed in sunlight, was full of youthful vigor, as if proclaiming to the whole world his extraordinary sixteen-year-old talent!
This is in stark contrast to the emaciated, paranoid, and gloomy figure in the original work!
In the days that followed, Nagato was busy creating the Heavenly Path to improve his control over the Rinnegan, while Shiba Kiyokawa was not idle either.
While transforming the Land of Rain and preparing to ambush Konoha, he did not neglect his own training.
I continue to maintain my self-discipline every day!
Even though the cheerful Nagato is destined to have a longer lifespan, it's always more reassuring to have the chance of survival in one's own hands.
During this period, good fortune came unexpectedly once again, or rather, his long-term accumulation finally met with a turning point.
After finishing his daily research work that day, Hiruko approached him and offered advice.
"Your mastery of chakra nature transformation is now extremely proficient; even I admit I can't match you in this aspect. How about you try fusing the two natures to create a bloodline limit?"
"Synthesize bloodline limit? Can that be done directly?" Shiba Kiyokawa asked.
Upon hearing this, Beiruhu felt a pang of melancholy, as if he were once again lost in unpleasant memories.
"Theoretically, it is possible. I have summarized all the theoretical steps and key points, but in practice, I have never succeeded even once."
Perhaps it's because I'm just a mediocre person; those fields that truly belong to geniuses are always just out of my reach, but I can never touch them.
That's why I designed the Demon Sprout Technique to steal the bloodline of those geniuses!
Shiba Kiyokawa glanced at him sideways, feeling that this was difficult to comment on.
On one hand, he felt that he was mediocre and unable to synthesize his own bloodline limit, but on the other hand, he conducted research on his own and developed a forbidden technique that could steal other people's bloodline limit from scratch!
Is it possible that your Oni-Garara Technique is far more outrageous than a bloodline limit?
