Mayuri's card from Naruto

Chapter 38 Kurama Clan

"What an amazing change in the nature of the Yin attribute." Namikaze Minato looked at Shikagawa's shadow secret technique in admiration, and sighed from the bottom of his heart.

There are seven types of chakra attributes, each with its own characteristics. The more proficient you are in changing the properties of your chakra, the greater the damage bonus to the ninjutsu of the corresponding attribute will be!

For example, some people pursue the sharpness of wind. Therefore, the thinner the wind attribute chakra is, the better. This will increase the penetration and lethality of the wind attribute.

Why is it that the same technique has completely different lethality when used by different ninjas? It is because there is a certain, even huge, difference in their proficiency in the changes in the nature of chakra!
In this situation where there is a gap, the technique used by the opponent with the same chakra output is more powerful than yours, and has greater lethality and destructive power.

So what is the change in nature represented by the Yin attribute?
Create from nothing!

It represents the unpredictable and changeable nature of spiritual thinking and the ability to create these imaginary ideas.

The Susanoo possessed by the Mangekyo is a representative of Yin Dun reaching an extremely high level.

The shadow of Lu Nie in front of him seemed to have a certain life. It kept changing its shape along the ground, which was breathtaking.

At least among the Nara people that Minato Namikaze was familiar with in his memory, no one's shadow secret technique could be as lively as the one that Lu Nie was performing now, making people feel that it really had life, rather than being a dead object.

This means that Lu Nie's Yin attribute changes are already quite good. Lu Nie also has mastered most of the changes in the form of the carrier of the technique.

At least the power and consumption of the shadow secret technique are worthy of praise.

“The most incredible thing about Yin Dun is its creativity. There is almost nothing it cannot do. As long as you can find the right path, it can present what you want.

The changes in your Yin properties and form have reached a certain threshold, which will save you a lot of time and chakra when learning the Yin escape technique.

This is the sealing technique and related sealing rune combination that I and Kushina have compiled for you these days. If you can integrate them into your new technique, it means that your conception is completely successful.

The Nara clan will also have a new Yin Dun secret technique." Namikaze Minato took out a scroll from his pocket and gently handed it over to Lu Nie.

"Thank you for your help, Minato-senpai and Kushina-senpai." Shikagawa held the scroll and bowed slightly.

“Well, you are very talented in sealing techniques. If Orochimaru hadn’t taken action first, Kushina would have gone to the Nara clan to snatch him away.

The study has come to an end, but if you have any questions about the sealing technique in the future, you can still come to me." Namikaze Minato waved his hand and smiled brightly.

"Also, I haven't congratulated you and your teammates on successfully passing the three rounds of the Chunin Exams yet. Who knows, maybe one of you will be promoted to Chunin soon!"

"Senior Minato, are you going to leave the village?" said Lu Nie as he looked at Minato Namikaze who was saying goodbye.

"Yes! The Chunin Exam is over, and I have to go out of the village to do a mission." Namikaze Minato looked at Luna with a smile: "I hope I can hear good news from you when I return to the village next time. I also want to see what this technique looks like after it is completed."

"Yes, I will show you how to do it myself when the time comes." Lu Nie said without hesitation. Even without the so-called recognition from the system, Lu Nie was happy to do so based on the teaching and dedication of Minato Namikaze over the past period of time.

After all, the other person's personal charm is really strong enough.

...Konoha BBQ restaurant.

In the semi-enclosed box, Hongdou was stuffing big mouthfuls of grilled meat into her mouth. On her left and right were Kane and Shisui, who were constantly passing grilled meat to her.

Orochimaru sat opposite, his arms folded as he looked at the three people, some vague memories in his eyes.

"Teacher Orochimaru, can the three of us become Chunin?" Red Bean raised her greasy lips and looked up at Orochimaru opposite her.

"This requires comments from the leading jonin from other villages, as well as the opinion of the Hokage. I'm just an invigilator." Orochimaru calmed down his slightly turbulent emotions and spoke out.

Hongdou's face suddenly fell and she dropped her head.

"But you performed very well. I think you should be able to become Chunin." Orochimaru said with a heavy breath, and the bad mood on Hongdou's face immediately brightened up.

After a simple dinner, the team began to disband. Shisui and Anko went to the training ground together. During this period of time, whenever Orochimaru and Kagome were in the laboratory, Shisui would take the initiative to be Anko's sparring partner.

"Using the ninja clan's funds to conduct research in the early stages is indeed a good approach." Orochimaru and Lu Nie were walking on the way back to the technical development department. "Uchiha has indeed played a good leading role."

"Have new ninja clans joined in?" As soon as Lu Nie heard Orochimaru's words, he knew that in addition to the Uchiha clans, other ninja clans had joined in.

At present, the one that has invested the most in the technology development department is undoubtedly the Uchiha clan, followed by the Ino, Shika, and Chou clans. However, the Ino, Shika, and Chou clans will not devote everything like the Uchiha clan did. They just combined to invest a sum of money and resources.

"You should know the Kurama clan, right?" Orochimaru lowered his head slightly and asked Lu Nie.

"Of course, when Konoha was established, it was also a powerful ninja clan. It was said that its attainments in illusion were comparable to or even surpassed those of the Uchiha clan. It provided the village with a large number of jonin and chunin. In the village at that time, it was a large clan that could vaguely be compared with the Uchiha and Hyuga clan just by its reputation." Lu Nie told what he knew.

"The illusion of the Kurama clan is an illusion that manipulates the five senses of human beings. This is a Yin-style bloodline limit, which is extremely rare in the ninja world. Any Kurama clan member who has awakened his bloodline can match or even surpass the illusion of the Uchiha clan with three magatama in terms of attainment and lethality in illusion." Orochimaru introduced the bloodline ability of the Kurama clan to Shikagawa in more detail.

"Are they doing this for their own bloodline?" asked Lu Nie.

"Yes. Too many members of the Kurama clan died in the war. What's worse is that only a few of the new generation have awakened their bloodline. If this continues, in another ten or twenty years, the Kurama clan may be wiped out.

The elders of the Kurama clan foresaw this possibility, and after learning about the Uchiha, they took the initiative to come to me, offering money and the bodies of their clan members for my research. " Orochimaru narrowed his eyes.

"Provide the bodies of the tribesmen?" Lu Nie was slightly stunned.

"Yes, but the only ones who can be studied extensively are those members of the Kurama clan who have not awakened their bloodline," said Orochimaru.

Lu Nie remained silent.

"So you see, everything in this ninja world can wither. Whether it's a person or a clan. In order to maintain the bloodline of their clan, those who still have the surname Senju are willing to risk everything under the instigation of others. The Kurama clan is the same."
