"It's still not enough."
Tamayo shook her head, a gentle smile appearing on her face.
"But with me, it might be."
Qingshui also smiled.
Good, it seemed they had found a way to remove Demon Blood's influence on humans.
"A pleasure working with you."
Qingshui extended his hand to Tamayo.
"A pleasure working with you."
Tamayo smiled and shook Qingshui's hand.
"No! Lady Tamayo! How can you let another man touch your hand?! Hey! Get your filthy hands off Lady Tamayo's hand!"
Yushiro's eyes were bloodshot. Behind him, Murata struggled to hold him back by the shoulders.
...
...
Naruto World.
Sand Village, Training Ground Seven.
Even the scorching sun over the desert couldn't match the temperature here.
Pakura, dressed in a tight, brown-green backless top, was uncharacteristically not training. Instead, her beautiful eyes were fixed intently on the training ground.
As usual, she had invited Qingshui here to train, but during their break, something unexpected happened.
It wasn't a bad thing; it was a good thing.
Qingshui had completed the fusion of Wind Release Chakra and Lightning Release Chakra, and at this moment, it was transforming, resulting in the successful fusion of his own Kekkei Genkai.
This was Separation Release.
A visible wave of Chakra emanated from Qingshui's body, shimmering with a dazzling blue glow.
Pakura was a little nervous.
Awakening a Kekkei Genkai was something every ninja hoped would happen to them, but it wasn't always a hundred percent positive.
If, due to some reason, the awakening was incomplete, or if the body couldn't withstand an overly powerful Kekkei Genkai, it could lead to Kekkei Illness, or even failure of the awakening, resulting in death.
While generally this situation occurred with Kekkei Genkai inherited through bloodlines, the probability of it happening to a ninja who self-synthesized their Kekkei Genkai in the first generation was extremely low. Still, there was always a slight chance.
Fortunately, Qingshui's Kekkei Genkai awakening went smoothly.
His mastery of both Wind and Lightning Chakra was nearing its peak, and the fusion process was exceptionally smooth, like placing his left hand on his right.
The blue Chakra glow gradually faded, returning to Qingshui's body.
This indicated that he had completely gained control over the newly born Separation Release Chakra within him, controlling it as easily as he controlled his other innate Chakra.
Pakura saw that the commotion had subsided, and Qingshui hadn't yet risen. Not daring to disturb him, she simply found a spot, sat cross-legged, and quietly watched Qingshui.
At this moment, Qingshui had his eyes closed, sensing the changes within himself.
Kekkei Genkai could be passed down through bloodlines. The easiest to pass down were those inherited through the Otsutsuki Clan's bloodline.
However, Chakra self-synthesized through Chakra training was clearly not as strong in terms of bloodline inheritance. More often, it was like a Secret Technique, passed down through master-disciple relationships.
Typical examples were Magnet Release and Dust Release.
But in fact, these ordinary Kekkei Genkai did indeed alter one's genetic factors.
Chakra could carry information, including genetic information.
If Qingshui's son could also cultivate Separation Release like him, then the genetic information related to Separation Release circulating in the bloodline would be passed down through generations, making it easier for his grandson to awaken Separation Release. This was also a form of evolution, a unique evolutionary method in the Ninja World.
The Terumi Clan and other Kekkei Genkai ninja clans in the Ninja World, which did not possess Otsutsuki bloodlines, were formed in this way.
Qingshui could feel that the newly born Separation Release Chakra was subtly transforming his body, and at the same time, his Chakra reserves surged with the successful fusion of the Kekkei Genkai.
He himself didn't possess any special bloodline. His increase in Chakra reserves had always been the result of his own arduous training, strengthening his mental and physical energy. Awakening a Kekkei Genkai at this age not only boosted his current Chakra reserves but also increased the upper limit of his future Chakra reserves.
After a long while.
When Qingshui opened his eyes, the first thing he saw was Pakura's collagen-rich face.
He wondered how she managed to maintain such good skin, especially with daily training in an environment like the Land of Wind.
"Qingshui, how do you feel!?"
Pakura's bright eyes widened. She grabbed Qingshui's arm and shook him, asking eagerly.
"I feel fine, actually, pretty good. Oh, who's that...?"
Qingshui looked at a blond Anbu member in the distance.
"Lord Qingshui, I am Night, a new member of the Anbu."
The Anbu bowed slightly, speaking to Qingshui.
Through the Transparent World, Qingshui clearly saw the young Anbu member's face.
He had delicate, somewhat effeminate features, bearing a four or five-tenths resemblance to Karura.
He recognized this person.
Yashamaru, Karura's fifteen-year-old younger brother, was a Chunin with decent strength. There was a good chance he could become a Jonin in the future; his talent was quite respectable.
Chiyo, being busy with duties in the past, had asked Qingshui to substitute for a few Medical Squad classes, which was how he had met Yashamaru.
Now that Yashamaru was in Anbu, was this Rasa's arrangement to cultivate trusted subordinates within Anbu?
"Is there something you need?" Qingshui asked calmly.
"Lord Third Kazekage requests your presence."
"I see. Oh, and when can we expect an invitation to your sister's wedding?"
"Three months from now, early next year, I suppose." Yashamaru scratched his head.
Wait, that's not right.
How did he recognize me?
"If you're going on a confidential mission outside the village, remember to dye your hair a different color," Qingshui said, patting Yashamaru's shoulder with a meaningful tone.
"Since the Kazekage wants to see you, you two go ahead. I feel like I'm only a few months away from success myself, so I'll continue training for now."
Evidently, Pakura had also recognized Yashamaru.
Because of Qingshui, Pakura had also sat in on a few Medical Squad classes.
Learning Medical Ninjutsu helped improve precision in Chakra control, and it indeed offered some assistance in integrating Kekkei Genkai.
Ten minutes later.
At the Kazekage Building.
Yashamaru pushed open the door to the Kazekage's office and escorted Qingshui inside.
"Lord Third, I've brought Jonin Qingshui." Yashamaru knelt on one knee, saluting the Third Kazekage.
"Alright, you can go now. Close the door on your way out." The Third Kazekage waved his hand, dismissing Yashamaru, then turned to Qingshui.
"Why are you so late?" The Third Kazekage's tone was relaxed, showing no signs of displeasure.
"I just reached a critical point in my training, so I was delayed a bit," Qingshui replied with a smile.
Having mastered the Kekkei Genkai, he was in a good mood.
