Chapter 268 Load bearing
In the first ten days of September, the reconstruction work of the town facilities destroyed by the ghost army in the territory of the ghost country was basically completed.
The main branch of the kingdom of ghosts will be replaced by the five-year-old Ziyuan, and the next seal duty of the sprites will also be transferred to Ziyuan.
Although she is only a five-year-old girl, due to the special status and responsibilities of a miko, no one underestimates Shion who is only five years old.
After the ceremony, the missions of various countries stayed and failed to get the information they wanted from the kingdom of ghosts. In this kind of thing, they still hope that the ninjas in the country can make a difference in this regard.
The spies in this area mainly come from the Cloud Ninja from the Land of Thunder, the Rock Yin Ninja from the Land of Earth, and the Sand Yin Ninja from the Land of Wind.
Konoha is currently trying to reconcile the conflicts at all levels within the village. In addition, in the third ninja world war, he was seriously injured and had no extra strength to touch the distant kingdom of ghosts.
And Kirigakure has secretly reached an alliance with Oni Nation, and having Yagura, the fourth generation of Mizukage, controlling the interior of Kirigakure Village is the least thing that Oni Nation needs to worry about.
Therefore, for a period of time in the future, the military and secret opponents of the Kingdom of Ghosts will still be the ninja spies sent by the Kingdom of Thunder, the Kingdom of Earth, and the Kingdom of Wind.
In the laboratory, there was a small and exquisite palm-sized black kettle on the experiment table. Baishi looked at the black kettle with an extremely satisfied expression on his face.
Then filled the kettle with clean water, and shouted to Lin who was seriously doing the experiment on the other side: "Lin."
"What's the matter, Teacher Shiraishi?"
Lin put down her work and came to Baishi's side. Seeing that Baishi was doing some work around a palm-sized black kettle, she became curious.
The material on the outside of the black kettle does not look like metal, but ceramics.
If it's just a kettle, but this small kettle gives Lin a very weird feeling, but this kind of weirdness doesn't know what the specific feeling is.
"Teacher Baishi, what is this?"
Lin couldn't help asking curiously.
Baishi did not answer immediately, but continued: "Come and see if you pour a glass of water with this kettle."
"Pour a glass of water?"
Lin was slightly taken aback.
Afterwards, a pensive look appeared on his face, and he stretched out his hand, grabbed the handle of the black kettle, and prepared to pick it up.
As a result, the black kettle remained motionless on the test bench.
No matter how hard Lin picks it up, it seems to be fixed there, unmoved.
Lin's face was full of astonishment.
What kind of kettle is this?
She has practiced sage, and her strength is not small. Although she can't exert unparalleled strange power like Tsunade, one of the three ninjas, she can easily lift large rocks larger than people.
She was curious about what material this black kettle was made of.
The palm-sized black kettle is actually heavier than an adult.
It's incredible.
Lin, who didn't believe in evil, continued to increase her strength. In the end, the chakra coat of the tailed beast also appeared on the outside of her body, which made Lin's physical strength increase again.
However, the black kettle was still fixed there, not even the power of the tailed beast could shake it a bit.
Lin gave up on the idea of picking up the black kettle. If the black kettle moved a little under her power just now, Lin might see the hope of picking it up.
But the key is that pure power cannot affect it in the slightest.
This can't help but make Lin feel discouraged.
"How does it feel?"
Shiraishi asked interestingly.
Lin thought for a while, then looked at Baishi helplessly and said, "Mr. Baishi, this kettle is impossible to pick up with pure strength."
Although she was questioning, Lin was sure of her inner guess.
This is not just due to her inner intuition, Nanao in her body also said a word to her-Lin, this kettle is weird, I am afraid that with all my chakra power, it is impossible for you to pick it up, give it up.
This short sentence shocked Lin.
How powerful the Tailed Beast is, it doesn’t need to release the earth-shattering Tailed Beast Jade, just relying on a roll of the body can cause huge destructive power, making it difficult for ninjas to contend.
So far, the ninjas who can face the tail beast head-on are only a small part of the top ninjas in the ninja world.
Most ninjas can only adopt a roundabout strategy when facing tailed beasts, and dare not confront them head-on.
And in the end to subdue the tailed beast, it must rely on sealing techniques, or special techniques that have a strong inhibitory effect on the chakra of the tailed beast, such as sharingan and wooden escape, which are also included, rather than relying on ninjutsu with amazing destructive power.
Even the mighty Tailed Beast couldn't pick up the kettle, Lin couldn't believe it.
But Nanao is a tailed beast with a relatively mild personality among the tailed beasts, and he disdains to tell such lies to deceive others.
If even the tailed beast is difficult to lift, Lin can only suspect that this black kettle is not something special that can be picked up by pure strength.
It takes some special skill to pick up this jug.
And this special technique can only be explained by the creator, Baishi.
Baishi nodded, which also proved that Lin's statement was correct.
Pure strength, no matter how powerful might be, cannot pick up this kettle.
"Then, discard those strengths, and feel the weight of this kettle with your heart."
Baishi gave a relatively general and vague statement.
The power of heart?
For others, it may be more troublesome.
But for Lin who has completed the training of perfect human strength, it is not a strange and difficult thing to use the power of the mind to sense things.
"The power of the heart?"
Lin didn't think much, according to what Shiraishi said, she picked up the black kettle again.
I don’t plan to use my own power this time, but also the Chakra power of the Tailed Beast.
Use your heart to sense the weight of this kettle.
Then-
Like the power of thunder, it slammed on Lin's body.
It caused her expression to change drastically, and she became extremely pale in an instant.
She stood there, holding the kettle, as if the sky and the earth were about to shake and turned upside down, everything around her was distorted, Shiraishi's figure disappeared from her eyes, and she saw the boundless darkness.
This darkness aroused all kinds of dark elements that had long been closed in Lin's heart.
Rather, he wants to liberate the beastly part buried in Lin's heart, and occupy Lin's mind and body.
Lin immediately shed layers of cold sweat on her forehead, summoned up all her mind, resisted the sudden dark force, and suppressed all these animal natures.
Dealing with these darkness reminded Lin that in the past, when performing perfect human strength, in the spiritual space, sensing the resentment and resentment of the tailed beast was something that strength could not overcome.
This has nothing to do with the strength of strength. The black kettle tests people's willpower.
No matter how strong or weak a ninja is, there will always be gaps in the mind, allowing darkness to take advantage.
Whether you can pass such a test is the key to picking up the black kettle.
Lin took a deep breath, and the surrounding scene returned to normal. Seeing that she had picked up the black water bottle in her hand, she felt lingering fear.
There is an inexplicable feeling of fear in my heart about this thing that looks like an ordinary kettle.
This bears a darkness that is stronger and darker than the Tailed Beast.
Lin can also be sure that this is not something that Chakra can create.
Chakra is just a prop to carry 'things', and will not produce any darkness by itself.
And this kettle itself may be synonymous with darkness.
is an abyssal domain that pure chakra cannot touch.
According to what Shiraishi said before, I used this kettle to pour a glass of water into the water glass.
Lin took a sip from the water glass, and found that the black jug contained only ordinary drinking water, and there was nothing special about it.
What is special is the black kettle itself.
"Using this as one of the compulsory exam questions for ninja school students, what do you think?"
Shiraishi asked this question.
"I don't think there is a problem. This thing is very helpful for honing people's willpower."
Lin answered without thinking.
This ninja world is full of all kinds of temptations, such as power, such as money, such as power, such as beauty, and such other temptations... People are fighting these things all their lives.
It is impossible to get rid of these things from human nature, but as long as people overcome these things, their will will hardly be defeated by anything in their lives.
Failure is never a terrible thing. What is terrible is that after failure, there is no courage to face the setbacks in life again.
It is indeed a good idea to use this water bottle as one of the final exam questions in the ninja school.
"However, having said that, what did Teacher Shiraishi use to make this thing?"
Lin is curious about this.
Shiraishi did not hide his answer: "The darkness of the sprites. When I sealed the sprites that day, some of the darkness was not recovered. I was thinking about how to deal with the darkness left in the ninja world. Finally, I came up with such a method to solve this problem. The weight of this water bottle is not the simple weight we know, but the weight of darkness in people's hearts. If you can't overcome the darkness in your heart, no one can pick up this water bottle. The darkness in my heart will fight to the end, or I will be dominated by cowardice and defeated by darkness."
"The weight of the darkness of the human heart? It's a heavy enough thing."
Lin sighed.
She has personally felt how heavy the so-called darkness of the human heart is.
The sense of suffocation caused by the oppression of the sky and the earth, how insignificant human beings are in the face of this force.
If you can cut through the wind and waves and advance with singing all the way, for those who are trying, it will definitely benefit them for life.
"By the way, how is the development of Tailed Beast? Has it made any progress?"
Shiraishi asked.
When the sprites were in trouble, Shiraishi did not use Lin to fight together.
She stayed with Obito in the First Military Region of Ziyuan City, sitting here to avoid any loss here.
The major military bases in the Kingdom of Ghosts and the First Military Region of Ziyuan City are the core of the core.
Here hides most of the secrets of the kingdom of ghosts, and these secrets are things that cannot be seen before the kingdom of ghosts officially enters the stage of the ninja world.
Said without hesitation, apart from him, Liuli, and Ayane, with the current military power of the Ghost Kingdom, it can fight against any big country.
Although there is still a greater chance of losing, facing the ice front of the ninjas of the great powers, they will not be defeated in a single battle, at least they have the strength to fight head-on.
After all, apart from the three of them, the Kingdom of Oni now has high-end combat powers like Lin, Obito, and Kakuzu.
The Uchiha clan, the Hyuga clan, and the Uzumaki clan also have many elite ninjas, all of whom can play a key role in turning the tide of battle in large-scale battles.
But this is not enough, it is far from what Baishi expected.
The kingdom of ghosts has further possibilities.
What the military needs to improve is the comprehensive strength of all ninjas, not just the cutting-edge parts.
If strong individualists become the top of the country, they will only lead a country into the abyss.
No matter how powerful a ninja is, it is impossible to take care of everything.
If a country wants to run, it needs talents from all walks of life to maintain the healthy operation of the country machine.
Powerful ninjas only represent the most cutting-edge talents in the country, but basic affairs also require people to manage and run them.
There is no need to waste any more time on the political and commercial issues of the ghost country, and there is no need to make major changes for the time being. The only thing that is lacking is that the military background is slightly insufficient.
The research and utilization of tailed beasts is a key to enhancing the military's comprehensive ninja power.
"Yes, a trial Tailed Beast Capsule has been produced. The specific medicinal properties still need clinical trials before we can consider whether it is suitable for popularization."
Lin replied.
"Is that so? Let's replace it with a white mouse first. Experimental volunteers, it may be difficult to get together in a while."
"knew."
Lin nodded, despite human experiments, the military in the ghost country is not a product of taboo violations, but has been invested in legitimacy research.
It's just that, in the eyes of most people, human experiments are always evil and taboo experiments that violate human nature.
But for a medical ninja like Lin, human experiments are just commonplace.
Medical ninjas save lives based on the experience and lessons learned from countless human experiments.
Development of various drugs that are beneficial to human beings is also based on human trials.
In Lin’s view, the ninja school still needs to strengthen education in this area, otherwise the medical and other industries in the ghost country may stagnate in the future.

Yakura, who returned to Kirigakure from the Oni Country, brought Kazuhime to Kirigakure at the same time.
As for Shiraishi's request, let his daughter Kazuhime go to the ninja school in Kirigakure Village to experience life, Yakura nodded and agreed without adding much.
With the friendship between him and Shiraishi, and the alliance between Oni Nation and Kirigakure, this kind of thing is just a matter of effort.
Moreover, judging from Shiraishi's meaning, it should be that he intends to list his daughter Yi Ji as one of his candidate heirs, and has great expectations.
It is not the first time Yakura has heard about this strange girl who was born with the awakened Sangodama Sharingan and sealed the Tailed Beastweight Chakra in her body from Shiraishi.
At the same time, I am also looking forward to how far the daughter Shiraishi has taken a fancy to will grow up in the future.
The age of blood and mist in Wuyin Village has passed. After several years of corrections and changes, the **** custom has been eliminated from the inside of Wuyin Village by Yagura's thorough attack.
Although Wuyin Village paid a very heavy price for this, it made the ninjas of other countries see it as a joke.
Although the Ninja Villages of the major countries also suffered huge losses, they were caused by wars with enemy countries.
The loss of Wuyin Village was due to the internal cannibalism, which caused trauma to the village itself, and the loss was no less than that of the Great Ninja Village that participated in the Ninja World War.
Until now, there are still some remaining blood mist ninjas who have fled to various parts of the ninja world, waiting for the opportunity to return to Kirigakure in an attempt to seize power.
Yakura has expressed his attitude towards killing these remnants of the blood mist faction more than once in high-level meetings. Today, there is still a unit of Wuyin Village Anbu who has stayed abroad for a long time in order to hunt down and kill these remnants of the blood mist faction.
"Is it already arranged?"
"Yes, Mizukage-sama, I have ordered Ms. Ichihime to arrange it, and there will be no problems. Probably the day after tomorrow, Ms. Ichihime will be able to transfer to our ninja school in Kirigakure normally."
After all, she is just a little girl, with Mizukage and Kirigakure Anbu behind her, even the high-level elders can't see anything unusual.
Appearing in front of Yakura's desk was an adult male in his thirties.
Has gray-blue hair standing upright, and a talisman-like earring is hung on each ear.
On his right eye, a black eyepatch is covered, blocking the sight of the eyes, and only one left eye is normally exposed.
"Thanks for your hard work, Qing."
Yakura is very satisfied with the work efficiency of this jonin named 'Blue'.
Qing is one of the few outstanding perceptual ninjas in Wuyin Village. He was also one of the strongest opponents of Blood Mist at the beginning. He has good physical and water ninjutsu attainments. Now he exists as one of his guards. Over the years, he has used his perception ninjutsu to solve many spies from other villages who wanted to sneak into Wuyin Village, and has made great contributions to the stability of Wuyin Village.
is also one of his most trusted ninjas.
"This is what I should do, Mizukage-sama."
Qing replied modestly.
"So, can Baiyan get used to it?"
Yakura asked Ao such a surprising question.
Qing nodded without hesitation and replied: "I have adapted to it, and I haven't found it to be repulsive to my body yet."
After all, before Baiyan was transplanted, he had already done various physical tests. His body has the highest fusion rate with Baiyan. Although he can't command Baiyan like an arm like the Hyuga clan, it is still no problem to use Baiyan to detect the enemy.
Moreover, as a strategic-level Blood Successor Limit, compared to Soft Fist, Baiyan's detection ability is the most important ability for a ninja village.
Yakura nodded.
The eye under the right eyepatch of Qing is the blood-successier Shizuku-san of the Hyuga clan, possessing the most comprehensive investigative ability in the ninja world.
This white eye was not plundered from Konoha's Hyuga family clan ninja, but obtained from Shiraishi by bartering.
Because there is a creature named Bai Jue in the Xiao organization, which has extremely terrifying infiltration ability. This white eye, which has been specially treated, can see Bai Jue’s movement trajectory underground, so as to avoid the leakage of information from Wuyin Village, it is necessary to make foolproof preparations.
Every time Yagura takes action, he will also bring Ao.
Akatsuki's target is the Tailed Beast. As a three-tailed Jinchuriki herself, Akatsuki will not take countermeasures just because of his identity as Mizukage.
Sooner or later, as Mizukage, he will also be targeted by Akatsuki.
Before then, ensuring that the information on your side is not leaked is the most basic way of fighting.
When the time comes, he will use this intelligence agency to catch the Xiao organization by surprise, reduce their combat effectiveness, and pave the way for the opening of the Fourth Ninja World War.
"Next, it's up to Kisame's actions. Have you ordered it?"
"No problem, we have already cooperated over there."
Qing answered in the affirmative.
As one of the few insiders in Wuyin Village who knows the whole truth, she is also deeply worried that Kisame will soon become a spy in a dangerous organization.
Although Kisame used to follow vicious ninjas like Suikayama Fuguki, in essence, Kisame did not join forces with those people, but has been deep in confused thinking, confused and worried for himself and the future of Wuyin Village.
Ninjas like this, if they don’t win over, will only become a huge loss to Wuyin Village.
Kisame's strength, now in Wuyin Village, can be said to be one of the few strongest ninjas under Mizukage.
After breaking away from the command of Loquat Juzo, who was also a member of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, he served in Mizukage's guard team, with the same status as Ao.
Another member is practicing with the old Yuanshi in Wuyin village, and the two blood successors who come here occasionally have Terumi Mei.
"However, after Kisame leaves, there will be one less member of the **** team. Relying on me alone is really stressful. Mizukage-sama, do you have any recommendations?"
Qing asked.
The **** team is not the only team protecting Shuiying.
After all, the existence of Anbu is also one of Mizukage's security guarantees.
However, as the leader of Ninja Village, there is no room for loss.
Originally, Terumi Mei came here occasionally to work part-time, and before the formal completion of training, there will be very little time to work here.
Kisame is about to leave Wuyin Village, so he is the only member of the guard left.
And what he is best at is not fighting, but perception and white-eyed detection, acting as Mizukage's eyes.
So, after Kisame left, a powerful ninja must be selected from Kirigakure Village to serve as Yagura's guard.
"Is the guard candidate after Onisame leaves? Let the ninja of the Oniteng family, where Master Nidaime belongs, take this position."
As one of the most powerful ninja clans in Wuyin Village whose root is Zheng Miaohong, the Ghost Lantern Clan has always been an indispensable part of Wuyin Village.
The second generation of Mizukage Ghost Lantern Huanyue, who was born in the Ghost Lantern family, is the ZTE master of Wuyin Village. He followed Konoha's example and carried out various reforms in Wuyin Village, which led to the rapid expansion of Wuyin Village's military power. He is a Mizukage who has made great contributions to Wuyin Village.
With such a background relationship, there is no need to worry about the loyalty of the Ghost Lanterns to Kirigakure.
"Ghost lamp family?" Qing touched his chin, as if thinking of something: "Can control seven ninja swords, is that genius child prodigy, Ghost lamp full moon? If he says it, there will be no problem."
The prodigy Guideng Manyue of Wuyin Village, just like Konoha's Shisui Shisui, is an outstanding ninja of today's younger generation.
In addition, the ancestors of the Ghost Lantern clan once appeared in the water shadow, and the Ghost Lantern Full Moon deserves the trust of high-level officials both in terms of background and strength.
In this way, after Kisame left, Guideng Manyue would succeed as one of the members of the Mizukage Guard, and no one would gossip.
At that time, in order to list Kisame as a member of the Mizukage Guard, Yakura, who was Mizukage, and those high-level elders fought hard for a long time based on reason, and finally passed the high-level meeting and made Kisame a member of the Guard.
"Then, next week, take Kisame to the Daimyo Mansion of the Land of Water, and give our daimyo a good farewell. Anyway, when the time comes, these guys will all be cleaned up one by one. I have endured him long enough."
A sharp light flashed in Yakura's eyes, with killing intent.
