Chapter 702

It's like for a person, if only a piece of flesh is dug out, recovery is generally just a matter of time.

And if a piece of bone is dug out, the result is only paralysis.

In short, the impact of "jutsu" on a village is beyond imagination.

This is not only the foundation of a village but also the foundation of the ninja village's existence.

Mizunuki Ryosuke's act of demanding secret techniques was undoubtedly intended to completely dig out the roots of this old tree of Iwagakure.

There is one thing known to everyone in the Ninja World, and that is that the five great ninja villages of the five great nations are the forces with the largest number of ninja and the most comprehensive attributes in the Ninja World.

But in fact, there are still certain differences in attributes among the major ninja villages.

Except for Konoha in the Land of Fire, which has a relatively average foundation in the five-attribute ninjutsu—

the names of the other four countries have already explained everything.

Sunagakure in the Land of Wind is best at Wind Release.

Iwagakure in the Land of Earth is best at Earth Release.

Kumogakure in the Land of Lightning is best at Lightning Release.

Kirigakure in the Land of Water is best at Water Release.

And the reason why this situation appears is closely related to the geography of the major nations.

The chakra attributes of ninja, although seemingly mysterious, are actually, apart from the influence of bloodlines, greatly related to the growth environment.

Take Kirigakure as an example.

Since the Land of Water is located on islands, surrounded by the sea on all sides and rich in water resources, almost everyone is born with water, and in this situation, the number of ninja with water attribute talent is high.

Therefore, when the water attribute became the mainstream of Kirigakure, the village and ninja naturally invested a lot of energy into the research and development of Water Release ninjutsu.

For example, in the original work, there were brilliant performances: Water Release: Great Waterfall Technique, Water Release: Water Prison Technique, and the most famous Water Release: Great Exploding Water Colliding Wave were all Kirigakure's unique Water Release.

And the research and development of ninjutsu requires huge energy and effort; when Kirigakure invested its main research and development energy into Water Release—

it also caused Kirigakure not to be good at ninjutsu of other attributes.

The strength of a single attribute determined the shortcomings of Kirigakure in other attributes.

Ninja who are good at Water Release will be restrained by Earth Release ninja when they encounter them, and for example, ninja who are good at Earth Release will be restrained by ninja who are good at Lightning Release.

Kirigakure's shortcomings in attributes other than Water Release caused some talented ninja of other attributes to often find it difficult to obtain excellent resources.

Even Mizunuki Ryosuke had encountered similar dilemmas; apart from Water Release, Kirigakure also had a certain foundation in Wind, Lightning, and Earth attribute ninjutsu, and the worst was Fire Release.

It once even led to Mizunuki Ryosuke, who possessed all attributes, finding it difficult to come into contact with decent Fire Release ninjutsu, and his cultivation of Fire Release once stagnated.

Later, fortunately, he received Uchiha Madara's gift, which made up for Mizunuki Ryosuke's shortcomings in Fire Release and Genjutsu.

Now, as long as Kirigakure can obtain Iwagakure's Earth Release secret transmission, it will raise the strength of the entire Kirigakure in the Earth Release attribute by one level, making Kirigakure occupy a certain advantage in attributes.

Not only that, most importantly, as long as Iwagakure's Earth Release is thoroughly studied, I'm afraid Iwagakure will find it difficult to be an enemy of Kirigakure in the future.

Huang Tu's face was extremely ugly; although he had already determined that Mizunuki Ryosuke would put forward some excessive and difficult requirements, he never expected that Mizunuki Ryosuke intended to swallow Iwagakure in one bite.

Regarding the Earth Release secret transmission, let's not talk about it for now; the most excessive thing was that Mizunuki Ryosuke actually had ideas about the Added-Weight Rock Technique and Light-Weight Rock Technique; such conditions were something Huang Tu could never accept.

But if he refused directly, it was clearly not realistic; they were the meat on the chopping block, so what capital did he have to refuse?

Huang Tu's face was uncertain; choosing the lesser of two evils, Huang Tu finally chose a compromise plan.

"Regarding the Earth Release secret transmission, we can agree—"

"The cultivation methods of the Added-Weight Rock Technique and Light-Weight Rock Technique are the secret transmissions of the past Tsuchikage, and even I do not know the cultivation methods."

"Moreover, even if I knew, I would have no right to give them to Kirigakure as war compensation; please understand this aspect."

Huang Tu's words were neither humble nor arrogant, and his words did not contain any fake ingredients; the Added-Weight Rock Technique and Light-Weight Rock Technique had always been the secret transmissions of the Tsuchikage, and even as the son of the Tsuchikage, he did not have the cultivation method.

The limit he could accept was to offer Iwagakure's Earth Release secret transmission.

Even so, after agreeing to such conditions, I'm afraid he would inevitably be criticized after returning to the village.

Upon hearing this, Mizunuki Ryosuke revealed a smile.

Although Iwagakure's Earth Release secret transmission was already in hand, how could this little "sweetness" satisfy his appetite?

He was not in a hurry; the so-called "certain kill" was to accumulate advantages bit by bit to give the enemy in front of him the final fatal blow.

How could a trump card be played directly?

Thus, Mizunuki Ryosuke looked at Huang Tu on the opposite side with eyes that made people feel cold inside.

"Jonin Huang Tu, why do you have to pretend to be confused when you understand?"

"Looking at the current situation, as long as you want, tomorrow you will be the Fourth Tsuchikage."
