Chapter 95 The Slug Immortal's Deep Interest in Qingyu (Third Update)
Soon, Qingyu discovered that after attaching this layer of wind-style chakra, an invisible wind blade extended from the tip of the sword, nearly doubling the attack range.
The wind blade was about three meters long with extremely sharp edges. With a light swipe, Qingyu cut the grass blades on the ground clean off at the roots.
Qingyu suddenly thought of a possibility.
This ability could perhaps be used in conjunction with a bow and arrow.
The [Darkness of Ninja] trait extends the range of Wind Release ninjutsu. When this effect is stacked on arrows, the effective range of bows and arrows is also greatly increased.
If combined with the Byakugan's far-sightedness, he can even launch precise strikes from outside the enemy's perception range.
Afterwards, Qingyu practiced illusion magic for a while.
To upgrade the "Deep Brotherly Love" dropped by Madara Uchiha to rank B, you need to master five genjutsu.
Mastery is not just about getting started or being proficient; it requires honing one's skills to the point of being an expert.
In addition to the basic Sharingan genjutsu, Qingyu plans to master "Water Release: Mirror Flower Water Moon" and "Konoha Style: Willow".
The two skills Qingyu still needs to master are "This Is Not the Technique" and "Golden Binding Technique".
The former can mislead the opponent into thinking they are in another place, disrupting their perception of the environment.
The latter can immobilize, and both are considered relatively common and useful illusions.
With his Sharingan, Qingyu progressed quickly in mastering these genjutsu.
Qingyu felt that she would master it very quickly.
Qingyu didn't go back until midnight.
"Tsunade, you should rest for a while. I'll keep watch."
Qingyu said.
"I can't sleep, and I'm hungry."
Tsunade turned to look at him.
"My stomach started growling halfway through the night watch. Do you have any rations left?"
Upon hearing this, Qingyu took out a few pieces of dry food from her backpack and handed them over.
Tsunade took the dry rations and took a bite.
The dry rations were hard and didn't taste very good; Tsunade's cheeks bulged slightly as she ate them.
"This craftsmanship is nowhere near as good as yours."
Tsunade mumbled, her mouth still stuffed with half a piece of dry rations.
"Many chefs outside are the same; their food is either too salty or too bland, or they don't control the heat properly. In short, it's far inferior to what you make."
Qingyu smiled slightly as she watched her complaining.
"Tsunade should feel lucky. I didn't charge her any fees. Every time she asked me to cook, it was free. If this were outside, she would have to charge at least several thousand taels for a meal."
Upon hearing this, Tsunade angrily reached out and pinched Qingyu's cheeks, pulling his face to the sides.
"You're so heartless! You're charging your own sister?"
"Not as ruthless as Tsunade."
Qingyu said.
Although Tsunade has a big heart, she is dark.
"Tsunade has ripped me off many times already."
Tsunade's fingers stiffened for a moment.
She released her grip, coughed twice, and pretended to continue eating her dry rations as if nothing had happened.
"Isn't that something your sister is saving for you? She'll give it to you when you get married."
"What about marrying Tsunade?"
Qingyu replied casually.
Tsunade stopped moving.
The dry rations in her hand stopped in mid-air, and she turned to look at Qingyu.
"You little brat, you're thinking about these things too early!"
Tsunade tapped Kiyoyu on the forehead.
This brat has no respect for his elders.
She didn't care.
In her opinion, although Qingyu has graduated from the Ninja Academy, he is still a child.
"You brat, stop joking like that."
Qingyu smiled slightly.
He is desensitizing Tsunade.
Qingyu estimates that he will be taller than Tsunade next year.
Will we still be able to treat him like a child then?
"Quickly give me a massage."
Tsunade gave the order.
"They're here."
Qingyu placed his hands on Tsunade's shoulders and then began to slowly apply force.
He accumulated extensive knowledge of human anatomy at Konoha Hospital, knowing which muscles are most prone to fatigue and which acupoints can relieve soreness to the greatest extent when pressed.
Tsunade closed her eyes and let out a soft, comfortable hum.
Her head tilted back slightly, revealing her fair and slender neck.
Qingyu stood behind her, and from his angle, he could clearly see the dazzling, unfathomable cleavage beneath the neckline of her dark sleeveless vest.
Tsunade's muscles gradually relaxed under his pressure, softening as the warmth from the renewed blood flow spread along her meridians to her limbs.
"Hmm~ Here—yes, right here—"
Tsunade's voice was languid, with a hint of satisfaction.
"Go down a little further, use a bit more force."
Qingyu adjusted her position and strength as instructed.
Tsunade's muscles gradually relaxed under Kiyoyu's massage.
"Alright, I'll let you try your best."
Tsunade opened her eyes and turned her head to glance at Kiyoyu.
"After we complete the mission and return, I'll take you and Shizune to the bathhouse."
Qingyu's hands kept moving.
"That newly opened bathhouse in Konoha? I heard it has a medicinal bath."
"That's right, I know the owner of that restaurant. He owes me a huge favor, so it's no problem to get him to reserve the best private room."
Tsunade gave a smug hum, then closed her eyes again, enjoying Qingyu's massage.
The next morning.
The sky was just beginning to lighten, and the fog on the grassland had not yet completely dissipated; a thin layer of white mist clung to the tips of the grass and flowed slowly.
After being massaged by Kiyoyu, Tsunade felt no fatigue at all, despite having kept watch all night.
After a simple breakfast, the group continued their journey.
The group continued their journey for several more hours.
Hinata Ginka suddenly stopped.
"There was a chakra reaction ahead, and quite a lot of it."
"6
The veins at the corners of her eyes bulged again, and her pure white eyes gazed into the distance.
Qingyu watched Hinata Ginka roll her eyes, while thinking about how to extract more traits from Hinata Ginka to make her roll her eyes again.
"They are Kusagakure ninja, about twenty-five people, three of whom are Jonin, and the rest are Chunin and Genin."
Hinata Ginka said.
Upon hearing this, Hatake Sakumo drew his short sword from behind his back.
"Now that we're here, let's get started. Qingyu, Kakashi, and Yinhua, you three will handle the enemies on the perimeter. I'll take care of the strongest one."
"Understood."
Qingyu nodded.
Tsunade stood at the back of the group, her hands forming hand seals.
"Spiritual communication techniques."
A black spell spread outward from her palm, white smoke rose, and a blue slug appeared beside her.
"Lady Tsunade, what are your orders?"
The slug opened its mouth, its voice gentle.
"Please, Lord Slug, possess them."
"Tsunade said."
"Understood."
The slug's body began to split apart.
Several smaller slugs separated from the main body and wriggled forward.
A slug climbed onto Qingyu's shoulder, while several others climbed onto the shoulders of Hyuga Ginka, Kakashi, and Hatake Sakumo.
"It's been a long time, Lord Qingyu."
The slug's antennae swayed gently, its voice carrying a hint of intimacy.
"Long time no see, Lord Slug."
Qingyu turned her head and nodded slightly to the slug on her shoulder.
After the slug settled down on Qingyu's shoulder, its antennae twitched gently a few times.
She immediately sensed something unusual.
The aura emanating from Lord Qingyu seems different from before.
When we last met in the Wet Bone Forest, Qingyu also possessed an affinity for natural energy, but at that time, the affinity was still very weak, only slightly stronger than that of other humans.
But now, Qingyu's scent has become even sweeter.
Slugs use their antennae to sense the flow of natural energy in the surrounding air.
It discovered that the natural energy, which should have been evenly distributed in the air, was now flowing slowly toward Qingyu.
What surprised the slug even more was that Qingyu itself was not actively absorbing this natural energy.
It was not negatively affected in any way.
This is extremely rare.
Slugs have lived for thousands of years and have seen many humans who can automatically draw upon natural energy.
The Jugo clan is an example of this.
Their physique is special, allowing them to automatically absorb natural energy and enter "immortal form" without needing to cultivate.
Unfortunately, the power of natural energy is extremely difficult to control.
Moreover, this constitution has huge side effects. Natural energy will make their emotions extremely unstable, causing them to fall into an uncontrollable state of rage, and even their bodies will become deformed.
But the slug noticed that Qingyu didn't seem to have these problems.
The flow of natural energy within him was very smooth, showing no signs of becoming violent or out of control.
This instantly piqued the slug fairy's interest in Qingyu.
Even Hashirama Senju back then wasn't like Kiyoha.
What would happen if Qingyu learned "immortal arts"?
The slug fairy was puzzled.
However, no one has learned the "magic arts" of Shikkotsu Forest for a long time.
"Lord Slug, what's wrong?"
Qingyu noticed the slug's silence on her shoulder and asked.
"It's nothing, Lord Qingyu."
The slug answered softly.
"I just feel that Lord Qingyu seems a little different from when we last met."
Upon hearing this, Qingyu's gaze flickered slightly.
He knew what the slug was talking about.
It's nothing more than natural energy.
He gained two natural energy affinity traits in succession, and the combined effect reached 120%.
This means that even if he doesn't actively absorb it, his body can passively attract natural energy.
All slugs are split versions of the Slug Immortal, possessing a far greater capacity to perceive natural energy than ordinary beings, and thus they naturally discovered this.
However, Qingyu did not explain, but simply nodded slightly and then turned her attention back to the front.
The group of people infiltrated the vicinity of the outpost.
Upon seeing the sensory ninja, Hatake Sakumo launched the first attack.
His figure disappeared from the spot.
The next second, he appeared behind a Kusagakure ninja with sensory abilities.
Before the sensory ninja could even scream, a thin red line appeared on his neck.
One fatal blow!
Without pausing, Sakumo Hatake lightly touched the ground with his toes and dashed toward his next target.
"Enemy attack—!"
The Grass Village ninjas finally reacted, but their formation had already been torn open by Sakumo Hatake's breakthrough.
Qingyu looked at a Kusagakure ninja who was forming hand seals in preparation for releasing a Water Release ninjutsu.
The Grass Village ninja was forming hand seals, and water-style chakra was beginning to gather in his mouth.
Qingyu raised his right hand, and dozens of gray shuriken projections immediately appeared behind him.
Whoosh whoosh!
Amidst a dense series of whooshing sounds, the illusory image of the shuriken tore through the air and shot straight toward the Kusagakure ninja.
The ninja's pupils suddenly contracted, his hand seals were forced to stop, and he dodged to the left, barely avoiding most of the shuriken.
Unfortunately, Qingyu waved his hand again, and a new shuriken projection appeared.
laugh!laugh!laugh!
The grass-hidden ninja collapsed instantly.
Not far from Qingyu, Kakashi also imbued his short sword with Lightning Release chakra, the silver-white blade enveloped in a layer of constantly pulsating electric arcs.
He lowered his center of gravity and rushed out, his short knife drawing a streak of lightning in the air.
A Kusagakure ninja who was raising his kunai to defend himself was struck directly in the chest by the lightning, and collapsed to the ground convulsing.
Kakashi took a breath and dissipated the remaining arcs of electricity on the short sword.
Hyuga Ginka launched an attack from the other side.
Hyuga Style: Eight Trigrams Empty Palm!
She struck out with her palm in mid-air, the chakra of her Gentle Fist condensing into an invisible shockwave that shot out from a distance.
The shockwave struck several of the Grass Village ninjas at the forefront, sending them flying several meters away, weapons and all.
