23 Orochimaru

After returning home, Junrei opened Tsunade's scroll and found out that is not Ninjutsu what is written here at all, but a way to improve the activity of the body's cells.

Although there was a little disappointment in my mind, this method of improving cell viability is also extremely important to Mekka Junrei now.

A person's body strength and cells are intimately related, and enhancing cell activity can improve the body's various functions.

For example, [Raikiri] by Kakashi, the reason why he can rush towards the enemy at high speed is because when you use [Raikiri], you must use Chakra of the Lightning Attribute to stimulate the cells and increase your speed of running.

When Uchiha Sasuke was at Chunin Exams, the reason why he could increase his speed to match Lee's standard speed within one month was also by using Lightning Attribute Chakra to stimulate cell viability to increase his speed.

It's just that Junrei's Chakra is not at all Lightning Attribute, so he's not able to use this method.

And Tsunade's method of improving cell viability belongs to the category of Medical-Ninjutsu, and practitioners need to be proficient in Medical-Ninjutsu and have super high Chakra Control.

Mekka Junrei analyzed that Tsunade's ability to use Chakra Enhanced Strength punches, besides relying on her Senju Clan's Bloodline, is also a way to increase cell viability. Moreover, Sakura can also use Chakra Enhanced Strength boxing in the original Anime, from that it can be seen that the premise of Chakra Enhanced Strength boxing training is not on the Bloodline of the Senju Clan, but on the need to improve the activity of cells.

Junrei is still young, and his body has not yet grown. In the face of some adult ninjas, his Taijutsu's advantage is not great.

But as long as the cellular activity of the body is improved, his Taijutsu can start to exert a greater formidable power.

After learning the contents of the scroll, he hid the scroll in a dark grid under the floor and saved it. I will immediately go to the border to execute my mission. It seems that I can only go to the Land of Fire border and then train this method to increase cell viability.

Mekka Junrei had planned to go to Konoha Hospital to thank Tsunade in person. It was only that after passing by the hospital that Tsunade was not in the hospital now, and so went to Tsunade's home after, and did not see Tsunade.

In desperation, Junrei could only write a thank you note, which was inserted into the doorway of Tsunade's house.

Early in the morning, he rushed to the Konoha Gate to get to his meet.

From a distance, the bustling people at the gate seem like an spectacular sight of a vast crowd.

But most of them are no more than 10 years old children, and there are less than ten Jonin leading the team, most of them are Chunin. However, Junrei found several ninjas with dogs in the crowd, many Ninjas from the Hyuga Clan and the Aburame Clan also came.

It seems that these three ninja Clan are the main members of this mission at the border. As for the other ninjas, it is estimated that they are either cannon fodders to confuse the enemy, or cannon fodders who are responsible for the cover.

Apart from this, Junrei can no longer think of a reason why the Village would sent so many Genins.

These Genins are war orphans, and a new batch will be added soon after this dead batch. Even if all the Genin sent out this time are killed, the village will not feel distressed. Because their purpose to cultivate these ninjas is to make them cannon fodder.

"Junrei, here!" Seeing Mekka Junrei, Shinohara waved warmly.

"Ueno Teacher!" Mekka Junrei moved towards Ueno and nodded, saying hello.

To be honest, in the past 2 years, following the team execution of Ueno, Shinohara, and Keita, Junrei's character has becomea lot more cheerful, at least no longer as unloving as before. But seeing this scene today, his mood can't raise.

Seems to be seeing through Junrei's thoughts, Ueno paved his shoulder, and comforted softly: "Don't think too much, our team's mission this time is to be responsible for the border, just follow me."

Junrei knows the real meaning of Ueno's words. If you follow a Jonin, you can get rid of the destiny of becoming a cannon fodder. Although you still cannot completely avoid it, since it will be dangerous, but at least he will be way more informed than those who need to enter the Land of Wind.

If Junrei had not revealed his talent during these years, his destiny this time would be very different.

"Destiny is a wonderful thing." He said with a sneer.

"Do you think so? Junrei! Destiny is really interesting."

Orochimaru's hoarse voice suddenly sounded from behind him, the voice had a tone of playfulness.

"Lord Orochimaru!" Ueno and the others immediately respectfully said.

Junrei found that everyone's first reaction to seeing Orochimaru was surprisingly similar, with tense bodies, eyes avoiding his face, and everyone looked nervous.

Although Orochimaru's reputation in the village is very high, almost everyone is afraid of this man who exude a dangerous aura that can't be covered up.

"Does Lord Orochimaru think so?" Junrei asked, with his eyes narrowed.

"Im looking forward to your performance in this mission." Orochimaru whispered to him, then turned and left.

After Orochimaru left, Shinohara immediately pulled Junrei to a side and said excitedly, "Junrei, Lord Orochimaru even knows your name."

"I've seen him before." Junrei responded, then looked at Ueno and asked: "Ueno Teacher, how did Lord Orochimaru appear here?"

"Lord Orochimaru is the Commander for this mission!" Ueno explained.

"Such a mission, the Village sent one of the Sannin's Lord Orochimaru?" Junrei frowned.

"This war. Konoha cannot afford to lose it" Ueno sighed.

Mekka Junrei hearing this nodded.

The war between Konoha and Sunagakure is the battle between the poorest Village and the biggest Village after the end of the Second Shinobi World War. At this stage, all the energy of Konoha is focused on this war, and they cannot lose this war.

They can't afford to lose!

The Land of Fire is located in the center of the entire continent and occupies the best natural resources. All the other Villages see the Land of Fire and glare at them like a tiger watching his prey. Once Konoha lost in this war with Sunagakure, all the other country would never give up this opportunity to eliminate them.

This war is the same for both Konoha and Sunagakure, as long as it's won, it can deter neighboring countries. But if they lose, the Hidden Sand Village is still a village that is hidden, difficult to attack and easy to defend, but if Konoha loses, they will definitely fall into a siege of other Four Villages.

So Orochimaru's arrival at the Land of Fire border in person can deter Hidden Sand Village from daring to act without thinking, and can greatly improve the morale of Konoha's army. And once the situation changes, if Orochimaru is present, he can respond in time. Even if Hidden Sand Village makes a big attack, Orochimaru can also ask for support from the village to help.
