"This person is carrying a burden, so they won't get far. Send out Ninja skilled in reconnaissance and tracking to pursue and kill them, and make sure to retrieve the supplies."
Mangya's eyes were fierce, but he was more distressed about his own property.
"All available Ninja from Grass Ninja Village are to be deployed to pursue the Ninja carrying the red-haired girl."
Muwei finally gave the order. He knew that if he couldn't retrieve the valuables this time, his position as leader wouldn't last long.
Hundreds of Ninja were dispatched, relying on various tracking methods to try and find the traces Che left behind. Unfortunately, how could Che leave any traces? Not even a scent was left.
Ling, as a qualified Anbu, had various ways to deal with traces left behind, especially when time wasn't pressing.
After a night of travel, Che first took Reina to the capital of Land of Grass to buy many clothes and daily necessities, and then turned to go to the Land of Rice Fields.
The reason for such speed was, of course, that they were riding on a Shikigami formed by the fusion of Shikigami Nue and Shikigami Tiger Burial. Its form was like a tiger with wings, and Ling named it Qiongqi.
Qiongqi not only possessed Tiger Burial's defense and powerful strength and speed, but also Nue's flying ability and purple lightning that dealt true damage.
On Qiongqi's back, Che lay with his arms pillowing his head, nestled in Qiongqi's fluffy fur, watching Reina extract Chakra.
Reina wore a white Muscle lining (skin undergarment) designed by Che, with golden embroidery on its cuffs and hem, paired with a red Hakama (pleated skirt). That's right, it was a Miko outfit.
Her red hair was meticulously styled, with a Hime cut and dark red hair ties at the ends, paired with Reina's cold, pale complexion from long-term lack of sunlight, giving her a noble and serene feeling.
In short, she looked very much like the little monster Eri Usami, and her solemn and dignified appearance while refining Chakra also had a hint of Yae Miko.
Although some other clothes were also bought, Che still felt that the Miko outfit had the most character, so Miko outfits made up the majority of Reina's clothing.
Feeling the astonishing Chakra fluctuations emanating from Reina's body, Che felt a bit envious. Reina, an Uzumaki Clan member who had never trained or cultivated, extracted Chakra for the first time, and her Chakra volume already exceeded that of a Jonin.
This was only her first extraction. As Reina trained her physique and took secret medicines, and after multiple extractions to find her upper limit, it was estimated that she could reach more than eighty times that of a normal Jonin, which is about fifty cards.
As for Uchiha Ling, whether it was her main body or Ling, her Chakra volume, even now, was only about twenty times that of a normal Jonin.
Although the Uchiha Clan has much more Chakra than ordinary Ninja, they are still somewhat inferior to the Senju Clan and the Uzumaki Clan.
However, the Uchiha Clan not only has Chakra but also Doujutsu, which can be used to substitute some Chakra consumption when performing Genjutsu and some Yin Release.
Whirlpool Reina is now fourteen years old, while his main body and Ling are only seven years old in bone age, so Ling wanting to surpass Reina in Chakra volume is very possible.
Even if she doesn't use black technology in the future and relies solely on the passive increase in Chakra volume brought by her Heavenly Restriction, she can still surpass Reina at fourteen.
As for black technology, it is the Sealing Technique developed by Ling to bind White Zetsu Cells. The initial design is complete, but it still needs to be tested.
Ling also designed some beautiful shapes, referencing the Stigmata from Honkai Impact 3rd, except the color is black, and each pattern is composed of dense Sealing Technique runes.
This combination of a certain cell and Sealing Technique became very similar to Orochimaru's Cursed Seal, although the principle is similar, the mode of action is different.
Orochimaru's Cursed Seal mainly uses Jugo's cells to allow the Cursed Seal host to use Sage Art Chakra, during which Jugo's cells and Natural Energy will inevitably erode the host's body.
However, the White Zetsu Mark designed by Ling is much gentler, merely using it as a battery. Perhaps if it's replaced with Hashirama cells in the future, it might become somewhat corrosive.
"Alright, don't over-extract Chakra by over-squeezing the cells. It's already very impressive to achieve this much on your first try."
Che interrupted Reina from continuing to extract Chakra, lest she overdraw herself and he would have to heal her, although he also understood Reina's longing for power.
Reina opened her eyes, feeling the vigorous energy within her body, and joy welled up in her heart. Moreover, after extracting Chakra, she seemed to be able to see the outside world even with her eyes closed.
In that perception, Che's Chakra gave a warm and gentle feeling, while her own Chakra felt like the early summer sun.
"Che, I seem to have gained a strange perspective. I can see things even with my eyes closed, and I can also sense Chakra. The range should be about ten kilometers."
Reina did not hide her situation, because she trusted Che, and even had an indescribable feeling.
"This is your awakening of the Uzumaki Clan's special ability, Kagura Mind Eye, which is one of your Bloodline Limit abilities. As for the range, you can increase it with more practice."
The Uzumaki Clan's Bloodline Limit abilities are Kagura Mind Eye and Adamantine Sealing Chains. The former brings powerful sensory abilities, while the latter is strong enough to bind Tailed Beast.
"This is a textbook for learning characters. With your foundation, you can learn it by self-study. If you don't want to study, I can use Genjutsu to help you master it."
Learning through Genjutsu was invented by Che, which can turn the Genjutsu space into a place for learning. Learning in Genjutsu is Che's way of gradually instilling his understanding of this knowledge into the recipient.
This cramming method would make the recipient easily forget and get headaches, but it was efficient. As long as the knowledge transmitted into the brain was understood and absorbed, the learning speed would far exceed that of ordinary people.
The first experimental subject was Reina. Reina couldn't quite grasp the feeling of combining sensory spiritual energy and cellular energy, so Che helped her.
However, the headache was real, because Che didn't control it well the first time and transmitted too much understanding of Chakra.
"Hmm, no, I'll just study by myself."
Reina was somewhat afraid of that headache and dizzy feeling. She immediately took the textbook and began to study, showing no dislike or impatience at all.
Only those who have suffered from a lack of knowledge can understand its preciousness, so they will be very self-motivated in learning knowledge, without needing anyone else to supervise them.
Flying through the air, Che didn't let Qiongqi fly very fast, but it still crossed the border of Land of Grass and reached Taki no Kuni, where his main body was located.
Che was thinking about what animals to use to experiment with the White Zetsu Mark. He couldn't possibly use Yunyan-chan and Pouf for the experiment, could he? This kind of experiment requires shaving.
The animals experimented with the White Zetsu Mark must have offensive capabilities, otherwise, wouldn't the White Zetsu Cells be wasted? If combat-capable animals succeed, they can also be used as Ninja beasts.
After much thought, Che thought of octopuses. Che planned to go to the seaside to catch some highly venomous ones, such as blue-ringed octopuses or giant octopuses, for experiments.
If he could cultivate them into Ninja beasts, he believed that when he encountered Eight-Tails in the future, the scene would definitely be very interesting.
