Golden "Sage Chakra" swirled around Kiyoshi, forming a lifelike golden robe covered with black patterns.
At a certain moment, Kiyoshi suddenly opened his eyes.
"Immortal Technique: Inorganic Rebirth"
Qing Si uttered a few syllables.
The walls of the quiet room suddenly began to twist and grow intertwined spikes, eventually turning into a chair.
It looks like a throne of thorns forged from rock.
"Finally completed 'Immortal Technique: Inorganic Rebirth'."
Kiyoshi looked at the scene before him with satisfaction, then slowly walked to the stone chair and sat down.
After practicing the "Sage Techniques" of Ryuchi Cave, he kept trying to imitate Yakushi Kabuto's techniques from memory, and eventually he figured it out.
Both of them possessed Orochimaru's research achievements, the same "Sage Techniques," and Kiyoshi's talent far surpassed that of Kabuto Yakushi. At this moment, "Sage Art: Inorganic Reincarnation" was born.
Those who explore the ultimate path will arrive at the same destination, regardless of their specific routes.
Ultimately, this is just an application of the "divine arts" of Ryuchi Cave.
"The 'Immortal Technique: Inorganic Rebirth' can imbue life into inanimate objects and control them."
Kiyoshi stroked his chin, and with his chakra, the rock spikes transformed into a stone sword.
He gently grasped it and waved it twice.
The category of inorganic matter is actually very broad. Rocks, soil, metals, buildings, and even air dust all belong to inorganic matter. "Immortal Technique: Inorganic Rebirth" can give them the ability to move and change their form, similar to that of living organisms.
Furthermore, the practitioner has absolute control over these "activated" inorganic substances, and can shape, drive, attack, and defend them at will.
puff.
Kiyoshi released his grip, and the stone sword transformed back into a thrusting motion.
He opened a sealed scroll and poured out all the materials stored inside.
Fragments of seven ninja swords, including "Broken Sword - Executioner's Blade", "Double Swords - Hiramekarei", and "Long Sword - Sewing Needle", are piled together.
Kiyoshi has already sold all the swords of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen to Kirigakure for a considerable sum of money.
He even took a piece of the "Raiden Kiba" from Ringo Ameyuri's hands.
"Then comes the Six Paths Tools."
Kiyoshi opened another sealed scroll, from which several ninja tools fell out.
They are "Golden Rope", "Seven-Star Sword", "Red Gourd", and "Banana Leaf Fan".
Of the "Six Paths Ninja Tools," only the "Amber Purification Bottle" is not in Kiyoshi's possession.
Kiyoshi's gaze fell on the floor, where his collected "materials" were quietly displayed.
"Then let's begin the fusion."
He did not rise, remaining seated on the thorn-like stone throne, channeling his chakra to unleash "Sage Art: Inorganic Reincarnation".
This power, carrying the unique coldness of a snake and the weight of the earth, slowly flowed into the stone chair beneath him, and through the contact between the stone chair and the ground, quietly spread to the entire floor of the quiet room.
The solid ground in front of him seemed to come alive, violently surging and rising under the drive of "Sage Chakra".
The hard rock softened and flowed against all reason, eventually shaping into a huge, semi-enclosed crucible-shaped container, which is the furnace.
With a slight thought, Kiyoshi lifted the seven ninja sword fragments in the corner with magnetic force and precisely threw them into the furnace shaped from activated rock.
The furnace was filled with brilliant light!
All the materials were thrown into the furnace by Kiyoshi, where they mingled and collided.
The initial fusion of these materials forms a sphere of liquid metal that constantly changes shape in the furnace.
Next, Kiyoshi threw out his ninja sword, the "God Tree Branch", the Kusanagi Sword, and some other precious minerals, allowing these materials to fuse together.
"Sage Art: Inorganic Reincarnation" can absolutely control inorganic matter. The stronger the caster's chakra control, the stronger their control over inorganic matter.
Under Kiyoshi's control, the ninja sword and the "God Tree Branch" flew toward the liquid metal sphere at the center of the furnace. They were not attached to the surface, but rather, under the guidance of "Sage Art: Inorganic Reincarnation," they were deeply imprinted and fused into the core material structure of the metal sphere.
"It takes more chakra than I expected."
Kiyoshi looked at the furnace in front of him.
These were all manipulated by him using chakra, and every second they consumed his chakra.
The Sharingan gives Kiyoshi the ability to observe at a microscopic level. Sasuke's three tomoe can see cells, let alone Kiyoshi's Mangekyou Sharingan.
To achieve a more precise combination, Kiyoshi needs to be even more careful.
An hour later.
The light in the furnace gradually faded. Kiyoshi formed hand seals, and the furnace instantly disintegrated. The activated rocks melted into the ground beneath the floor like a receding tide, and the inorganic matter they contained returned to its original form.
A ninja sword lay quietly on the floor.
The blade blank had a deep, dark appearance, like a pool of ink.
Upon closer inspection, one can see that the blade is not smooth, but rather covered with extremely fine textures, resembling dragon or snake scales.
Kiyoshi reached out his hand, and the newly born ninja sword seemed to sense its master's call, emitting a low hum and flying into his hand on its own.
It is cool to the touch, yet it contains a vibrant life force.
Without consciously inputting chakra, Kiyoshi could clearly feel that the blade seemed to have its own faint "pulse," resonating with his "Sage Chakra."
"Succeeded..."
Kiyoshi flicked his wrist slightly and casually waved it in the air.
A bolt of lightning tore through the air and struck the wall, instantly piercing it.
"Not bad, it combines the characteristics of the seven ninja swords."
Qing Si nodded slightly.
The lightning just now was clearly the power of "Lightning Blade: Fang," a blade capable of unleashing lightning-style ninjutsu.
"This sword absorbed the characteristics of seven ninja swords and the 'Six Paths Ninja Tools,' and its appearance resembles scales, hence the name 'Black Scale.'"
Kiyoshi gave the ninja sword "Kurorin" a good name.
With a slight exertion of his hand, the tiny scales on the black scale blade instantly cracked open, like scattered blades, floating in the air.
The suspended fragments vaguely pieced together the outline of the blade, making it appear incredibly slender.
laugh!
These fragments are pieced together and can change according to Qing Si's will.
"This will come in handy in future battles."
Kiyoshi secretly said.
Even after Boruto returned as a rogue ninja, he still used the Kusanagi sword when fighting against those "Six Paths level" powerhouses.
Kiyoshi's Black Scales far surpass Boruto's Kusanagi Sword in both strength and functionality; they are not even in the same league.
"It can be shrunk further."
Kiyoshi was very satisfied with the reduction in size of the ninja sword.
This ability comes from the Kusanagi sword forged by Orochimaru, and he has incorporated these elements into it as well.
Kiyoshi didn't know if it was because his chakra control was too strong, or because he had developed "Sage Art: Inorganic Reincarnation" himself.
I feel that it's somewhat different from the original "Immortal Technique: Inorganic Rebirth," and seems to be even more powerful.
……
In the quiet shrine.
The noble priestess frowned, her forehead covered in a fine sheen of sweat.
Whenever someone around her dies, she inevitably senses their impending death.
The power of "prophecy of death" allowed the priestess lineage to contend with demons and survive for thousands of years.
But now, every time it's initiated, it's related to a man.
Uchiha... Kiyoshi.
Maitreya suddenly opened his eyes, breathing slightly heavily.
She dreamed of Uchiha Kiyoshi again.
I also dreamed that someone died.
The person who died was just a tourist who happened to have come to the shrine to burn incense and had seen Maitreya from afar.
The threshold for the activation of the "Prophecy of Death" lies in "those around you," but even Miroku himself does not know how to determine this.
Because sometimes, guards she didn't even know would die for her.
Therefore, it is quite normal to encounter a deceased tourist at a shrine that is frequented by tourists every day.
The important thing is what Maitreya can glean from this.
The tourist died of a heart attack on her way down the mountain, and not far away, she actually saw Uchiha Kiyoshi coming up the steps.
Then, with a dizzying sensation, Uchiha Kiyoshi was already in front of her.
"No, I have to go find the Kushina from before."
Maitreya's Secret Passage.
She once hinted and guided a red-haired woman named Kushina, deceiving her that Kiyoshi was her destined love.
The goal, of course, was to have Kushina draw Kiyoshi's attention away from her so that she wouldn't be bothered by him.
"I'll be going back to China this week, and I hope everything goes smoothly."
The priestess Miroku began to pray to the gods.
The Fire Country Daimyo had already left Konoha. The Demon Country Daimyo and she originally planned to leave together, but the Demon Country Daimyo's health suddenly deteriorated, so they stayed in Konoha for several more months.
The Kingdom of Demons has ministers loyal to the daimyo of the Kingdom of Demons, so there is no fear that not returning for a long time will have any drawbacks.
Moreover, she was a shaman who handled matters with ease, which meant she had a firm grasp on the aspect of religious faith.
Anyone who dares to be disloyal is easily killed by fanatical followers.
Over the next few days, Miroku deliberately gathered information about Kushina.
Upon learning that Kushina had come to the shrine, they rushed over and found her immediately.
Kushina also told the priestess Miroku about her mission to the Land of Snow.
"This is an opportunity for you and your destined partner to deepen your relationship."
The shrine maiden, looking quite serious, began to try and persuade Kushina.
How could the clueless Kushina possibly compare to the discerning Miroku?
She had seen countless believers of all kinds and had long since developed her own understanding of human nature.
"But……"
Kushina hesitated for a moment before telling Minato Namikaze what had happened.
Years ago, Minato Namikaze rescued her from the hands of the Cloud Village ninja under the moonlight, and their relationship grew much closer after that.
Later, Minato Namikaze became engrossed in developing the "Rasengan" and busy with missions, and their relationship cooled considerably.
Just then, Kiyoshi barged in.
Upon hearing this, Miroku continued to deceive Kushina.
Tell her that everything else is temporary, and she must focus on Seisakusho.
"Your Highness, would you mind if I also offered some incense?"
Just as Miroku was struggling to convince Kushina, Kiyoshi's voice came from outside.
Maitreya's expression changed slightly, and he placed his hands in front of his abdomen, appearing dignified and elegant.
"Lord Hokage."
"No need for that, Your Highness the Priestess can call me Kiyoshi."
