Chapter 274 Soul Creation Ninjutsu
In the days that followed, Kiichiro conducted an in-depth analysis of Unit-01 and pondered and experimented with various improvement plans.
Several months later, Kiichiro finally found the final solution: to give Unit-01 a soul.
First, with a soul, Unit-01 has a certain degree of autonomy. As long as it is given a command, it can be responsible for carrying out the specific tasks, reducing the mental energy consumption.
Secondly, with a soul, Unit-01 can generate chakra autonomously, extending combat time and enhancing combat power.
Chakra is the product of the fusion of spiritual energy and physical energy. Unit-01's physical body far surpasses that of humans. As long as it has a soul and generates spiritual energy, it can certainly create chakra.
Third, with a soul, Unit-01 can control chakra and use ninjutsu autonomously, so it won't be unable to repair itself when injured.
The plan is perfect, the only problem is that Oniichiro can't create souls.
In his dream, Oniichiro revealed his difficulties.
Unit-01 was like a cheat code for everyone, and Kyosuke and the others took it seriously, each lost in thought.
Mi Shou, who kills people every day, has no experience in researching such matters, so he gave a very violent suggestion.
"Since we can't create souls, we'll just steal them! Humans in the Naruto world have souls. We'll steal their souls, modify them, and stuff them directly into Unit-01!"
Although Mikami's words were rough, his logic was sound. Kiichiro's eyes lit up, and he clapped his hands lightly: "Good, good, good! I've been studying this every day, and my brain is going to go crazy. I'm just getting stuck on the smallest details. What Mikami said is right, we can just use what's already there! It seems like the soul of Unit-01 in EVA is the protagonist's mother."
Chisuke, however, raised a question: "We don't seem to know any ninjutsu that can manipulate souls."
Kiichiro waved his hand confidently: "That's not a problem. Over the years, you've given me a lot of valuable information, some of which involves the soul, such as sealing techniques. Sealing techniques can seal tailed beasts, and the principle behind it is to seal the tailed beast's spiritual energy, which is essentially similar to sealing the soul. There's also the research data on the Rinnegan left by Ooka Shin, which also involves the soul. As long as I synthesize and study all this information, I will definitely be able to create ninjutsu that can extract and modify the soul."
After years of research, Kiichiro has a profound understanding of chakra and is confident that he can achieve this.
Kiichiro turned to Kyosuke and continued, "Of course, this will take some time, and the ninjutsu I created at the beginning won't be too strong. If I want to reach the point where I can control souls at will, I need to study for a long time. You all need to help me obtain more valuable information."
Kyosuke understood what Kiichiro meant and could only nod: "I know. I will do my best with the Reaper Death Seal, the Impure World Reincarnation, and the Kato clan's Spirit Transformation Technique."
Chisuke also said, "The sealing techniques of the Sand Village are also quite good, and I will try my best to collect them."
Mi Shou thought of Sasori and said, "Sasori can transform himself into a human puppet, so he must have some knowledge of the soul. I will find an opportunity to obtain this information."
With everyone pooling their wisdom and efforts, the meeting ended, and Kiichiro continued his research.
After repairing and modifying Unit-01, Kiichiro began developing Soul Ninjutsu.
The process went smoothly. Based on the sealing techniques of the Uzumaki clan, and incorporating the sealing techniques of the Sand Village and the information from the Rinnegan, Kiichiro developed the Soul Ninjutsu in just over ten days.
Of course, this ninjutsu is slow to activate, complex to operate, and has limited strength. It's fine for research, but it's difficult to play a role in battles against strong opponents.
"Sir, as you ordered, I captured ten experimental subjects and have locked them in cell number two."
Ko Itakura entered the laboratory and reported back to Ichiro Kiichiro.
Kiichiro nodded: "I need a lot of experimental materials recently, so you and Kifuji need to step up your efforts."
"Yes."
After Itakura Kou stepped down, Kiichiro went to cell number two and casually grabbed a former bandit.
"What are you doing? Let go of me! What is this?! Ahhhhhh..."
Kiichiro was extracting the bandit's soul, but after extracting only half of it, the soul began to disintegrate. It's unclear whether it entered the underworld or not, but the bandit died amidst screams.
"Is his ninjutsu too brutal? Because he's an ordinary person, so his soul is too weak?"
Kiichiro frowned and continued experimenting with his ninjutsu. Over the next period of time, screams of agony echoed from inside the cell.
After the last person fell, Kiichiro returned to the laboratory and began recording and analyzing the data.
It is certain that the current soul ninjutsu has some flaws. When the soul is extracted, it will cause considerable damage to the soul, which needs to be improved.
Moreover, the strength of a person's soul is different from that of another. A ninja's soul is stronger and will not easily dissipate even if it is injured.
Among the experimental subjects was a Chunin whose soul was extracted and sealed, though it was somewhat damaged.
While Kiichiro was researching ninjutsu, Itakura Ko and Kifuji were exhausted.
Junya and Kaede have similar ninjutsu talents, and Junya works with Mikuri Tomokazu to earn money for Kiichiro.
The task of capturing experimental subjects fell entirely on Itakura Ko and Onifuji.
As research progresses, not only does the demand for experimental materials increase significantly, but the quality of these materials also needs to be improved.
Kiichiro no longer looks down on ordinary people; at the very least, they are genin, and chunin is even better, with no upper limit.
Ninjas aren't like cabbages; the ninjas from the adult village are people that Ko Itakura and Onifuji wouldn't dare touch, and ninjas without a background are hard to find as they roam around.
The experimental subjects also need to be captured alive, which increases the difficulty exponentially.
Capturing a genin alive is manageable, but capturing a chunin requires some luck. As for jonin, they are not within their consideration.
That evening, Itakura Ko and Onifudo completed their KPIs for the day. During dinner, Itakura Ko said, "No, we almost failed to complete the task today. We need to think of a way, otherwise we won't be able to complete the adults' task."
Onifuji swallowed the meat in his mouth and waited quietly for Itakura Ko to say what he would say next.
Itakura Ko thought for a moment and said, "How about this, we go to the gold exchange and post a mission to lure others into robbery, then we'll wipe them all out in one fell swoop."
Ghost Vine nodded vigorously: "Okay!"
The next day, a new mission appeared at a nearby gold exchange: to attack a caravan.
The bounty for this mission is low, so capable people don't bother with it; only some low-ranking ninja are interested.
There are rules for posting tasks on the exchange; you have to pay a deposit first, and Itagaki doesn't have that much money.
A smaller reward is a good thing, so that if the reward is too high, it will attract some tough guys. That would be like fishing and catching a great white shark, which is just asking for trouble.
Ultimately, a group of ninja made the first move, ambushing the caravan in a valley. They were then ambushed by Itakura Ko and Onifudo, who captured most of them alive.
It has to be said that these ninja are really greedy and reckless. They used the same tricks of Itakura Ko three times, and the ninja fell for it three times.
The plan only became less effective once the number of ninja in the area decreased significantly.
Kiichiro had been engrossed in his research these days. Although he thought Itakura Ko and Kifuji were very capable and had a wealth of experimental materials, he only praised them a couple of times without giving it much thought.
Later, when his research yielded some preliminary results, he learned about Itakura Ko's tactics during a casual conversation. His eyes lit up, and he silently memorized them, intending to use them when needed in the future.
