Pokémon Ninja Scrolls of the Mizukage

Chapter 95: One Life Feather Dance
In the next few days, Jianchuan Ju visited some acquaintances in the village one after another.

He also sent some of the newly acquired materials to Ichiro Shimotsuki, as a way of thanking the old man for giving him so many ninja tools before he went to the battlefield.

"Boy, you need to work harder. The old man is still waiting for you to make a name for me." Shimotsuki Ichiro encouraged with a smile before leaving.

"Hehe, old man, I used the magic spear to kill an Uchiha jonin this time. Just wait and see, the reputation of the magic spear will not be less than that of the seven ninja swords."

"Okay, I know you're capable. If you have any materials in the future, I'll charge you at the market price. Maybe I can even help you strengthen this ninja sword someday."

Speaking of strengthening ninja swords, Jianchuan Ju suddenly remembered the "Flying Gem" he had just drawn, but Shimotsuki Ichiro had no idea what to do after looking at it.

"Leave it here with me for now, but don't hold your hopes too high. I don't dare to use this special material, which is only one piece, to strengthen the finished ninja sword without testing it."

Jianchuan Tachibana smiled and made an 'OK' gesture, then left the ninja tool shop while Shimotsuki Ichiro looked confused.

"What a pity. Kisame must have gone to the Anbu. The Hoshigaki clan won't say where to find him."

Jianchuan Ju had been thinking about sharing his recent experiences in ninjutsu with the other party, but he had to give up.

After a few days of rest, the Jianchuanju team began to accept missions as normal.

The village seems to be very short of manpower recently, and many tasks have been issued for some time but are still unaccepted.

However, the Jianchuanju team still followed their own pace, and after completing each task they would take a break for a while to practice daily.

Life is pretty comfortable.

By the way, the purpose of drawing the flying prize pool last time was to master flying skills.

And from Jianchuan Ju's current feeling, even if there is a real limited-time event prize pool, it may not be comparable to the improvement that air supremacy can bring to him.

So this time Jianchuan Ju didn't plan to accumulate gold coins anymore. Instead, he planned to draw from the flying prize pool once he accumulated 1600 gold coins. The sooner he could get the flying skills, the sooner he could become familiar with aerial combat.

Unfortunately, the ten consecutive draws two days ago still did not produce any relevant skills.

On the contrary, it was the first time that a duplicate skill was drawn.

That’s right, Jianchuan Ju once again drew the skill ‘Feather Dance’ from the flying attribute UP pool this time.

Although it was still not the prize he wanted most, the feather dance of "One Life" did not disappoint Jianchuan Ju.

After the infusion of knowledge, this simple visual obstruction skill was further strengthened.

From initially creating a large amount of white feathers covering the entire body to block the enemy's sight, it has changed to creating color-mimicking feathers that stay in the air.

Jianchuan Ju conducted a test himself in the training ground. When he performed hand seals in an open space, he was able to leave behind an avatar of himself made up of feathers of various colors, which was almost indistinguishable from the real thing.

If it is performed in a dense forest, you can also directly create a set of "Ghillie suit" for yourself, so that you can blend into the environment perfectly like a chameleon.

And because this skill is released quickly, the chakra consumption is extremely small.

Generally speaking, it is impossible to detect it unless there is a sensory ninja who specializes in investigation.

It also increases the amount of chakra used when releasing, and can also increase the number and duration of feathers.

With the blessing of this "one life", "Feather Dance" has leapt from a decent auxiliary skill to a very cost-effective and practical skill.

Even some ordinary ninjas can build their own combat system based on this skill.

This also made Jianchuan Ju start to look forward to what magical effects would occur if other skills were drawn repeatedly.

"Well, it's decided! After I draw a flying skill, I'll go back and draw from the water attribute pool."

Once again marveling at the power of the 'one life' bonus, Jianchuan Ju secretly encouraged himself.

"Nanase-sister~ I brought some fruit back for you."

Jianchuan Ju smiled and handed a large bag of fruit to the neighbor's nurse. "Thank you, Ju has become a Chunin, but you are still so kind-hearted." Miss Nanase took the package a little embarrassedly.

"Hehe, it's just a small thing. Thank you, Nanase-san, for your care." Jianchuan Tachibana showed a sunny smile.

There is no other way. If you want to participate in the lottery, you have to accumulate gold coins.

Daily tasks are still the main source of gold coins for Jianchuan Ju, and he is reluctant to be lazy.

One of the tasks today happened to be to [run errands for the nurse next door]. Jianchuan Ju had to spend a lot of time persuading his neighbor, who was afraid of bothering him, to agree to let him help run errands.

Just when Jianchuan Ju finished his task for today and was preparing to go home to refine his chakra and rest early.

An Anbu ninja instantly appeared beside him.

Miss Nanase, who was laughing just now, gave her an apologetic look and immediately went back home and closed the door.

The Anbu ninja didn't care about an ordinary person and spoke to Jianchuan Ju.

"Jianchuan Chuunin, Elder Yuanshi wants to see you."

Jianchuan Ju was stunned for a moment. Although he knew that the elder Yuanshi had great power in Kirigakure, he did not expect that he could appoint the Anbu to convey information.

But he was only stunned for a moment and then immediately replied.

"Okay, thank you for your help. I'll be right there."

Seeing the other party leave in an instant again, Jianchuan Ju thought about it and decided not to go home again, so he prepared to go directly to the Mizukage Building.

"Lan Zai, you should go home first. You may have to take care of dinner by yourself. I'll go see what's going on."

After saying that, Jianchuan Ju also quickly jumped onto the roof and rushed towards the Mizukage Building.

"Quack~O.O"

Not long after returning from the front line, Jianchuan Ju's team met with the Yuanshi Elder accompanied by Qing.

In general, he is an old man who is approachable at first sight. He does not mind Zabuza's identity, nor does he have any dissatisfaction with Jianchuan Jue's attempt to use him to reject Karajima Yagura.

Instead, he kindly encouraged the three of them, and then agreed to let the three little ones become his bodyguards in name only.

Perhaps because there were quite a few neutral ninjas who did this, Jianchuan Ju never had any contact with Elder Yuanshi again.

Not to mention issuing missions or escort patrols, it's as if such a position has never existed.

However, since the Anbu was sent specifically to inform me today, it should not be an ordinary matter.

Jianchuan Ju thought as he jumped over the last few roofs and arrived in front of the Mizukage Building.

He quickly walked up to the office of Elder Yuanshi.

Jianchuan Ju discovered that not only Teacher Qing and the three members of his own team, but even the Ken team, which he was quite familiar with before, were already waiting here.

"I'm sorry, Elder Yuanshi, I'm late."

Seeing that there were already so many people here, Jianchuan Ju hurriedly apologized without caring whether he was really late or not.

"It doesn't matter, because I only bothered the Third Mizukage to ask an Anbu to be responsible for the notification, and you should be the last one to be notified."

"Come and sit down, Orange Boy."

Elder Yuanshi smiled and pointed to a seat beside him, motioning Jianchuan Ju to sit down and talk.
