Chapter 63: The White Light Chakra Sword and the Kusanagi Sword

"Don't look at me like that, Orochimaru-sensei.... It's very intimidating."

Yeruashi was met by Orochimaru's gaze and shrugged helplessly as he said, "Ah, sensei, you're not thinking of me as an experimental subject, are you?"

Orochimaru narrowed his eyes slightly and chuckled, saying, "Of course not, you're my most prized disciple, but I'm really interested in your Kekkei Genkai, unfortunately we don't have time to do a detailed investigation right now."

Yeruashi pondered for a moment and said, "I will cooperate with sensei to do some research after the war is over."

This kind of thing could only be delayed by the war, by the time the war actually ended, his strength would most likely have surpassed the Kage level, and with his new strength, no one could force him to do what he doesn't want to do.

If it was no problem, he didn't mind helping Orochimaru in his research on immortality, after all, Orochimaru had treated him well, and had taught him the Cell Stimulation technique and the change of nature of the thunder attribute chakra

That said.

The two time-based abilities so far could only work on his body, and were something Yeruashi had been researching.

For example, the time reversal skill, shows a peculiar nature in that it can only be used on his body, meaning... if he gets a cut on his hand and throws the blood from the cut towards a wall, by using time reversal on the wound, the blood on the wall mysteriously disappears.

This ability ignores spatial distance.

Yeruashi performed some tests and even if he pulled out a lock of hair and placed it an extremely long distance away, that lock of hair would reappear on his head instantly after using time reversal!

Possessing this ability means that as long as Yeruashi doesn't want it, no one can have even a drop of blood on his body.

The only unfortunate thing is that by using time reversal, he can only retrieve the drop of blood left thousands of miles away, but he cannot be reborn from that drop of blood, which means that he cannot use this ability to move through space.

By activating the reverse time flow, the recovery center will be the part of the body where the soul is located, which is basically consistent with the restoration of Edo Tensei.

As for the idea of splitting his soul or his body to test the effect of time reversal.... Yeruashi has no intention of experimenting with his body and soul.

If he wants to have the ability of spatial movement, then he just needs to learn Hiraishin no Jutsu.

Even if Hiraishin is too difficult and can't be practiced without special talent, there are still Sharingan and Rinnegan that have spatial abilities, it just takes strength to capture them.

"I'll be looking forward to it."

Hearing Yeruashi's reply, Orochimaru sketched a small smile.

The skills Yeruashi possessed were complicated even for him, and he didn't want to resort to any methods of coercion until it was necessary.

Fortunately, Yeruashi became his disciple, otherwise it would have been extremely difficult to access the power of time.

Besides... It was unknown when the war would end, and in fact it would be difficult for him to engage in research until the war ended.

Just then.

A ninja approached him to inform Orochimaru: "Orochimaru-sama, the battlefield has been cleared, our side has killed a total of seventy-seven Iwagakure ninja, including a total of thirteen Elite Jounin..."

"I see."

Orochimaru nodded and said slowly, "Iwagakure's advance troops received heavy damage and their plan has been destroyed, their next step would be to retreat or press us with their large army, we will first report the situation on this side of the battlefield to the village"

"Yes!"

The ninja accepted the order.

As he walked out, his gaze rested on Yeruashi with a distinct tinge of unnaturalness and a hint of respect in the depths of his eyes.

Although Yeruashi was much younger than him, his accomplishments in this battle were enough to be described with the word "Brilliant."

Almost half of the ninja of Iwagakure fell at Yeruashi's hands, he could be considered a hero on the battlefield so to speak!

This is respect earned by force.

Yeruashi noticed the look on the ninja's face, but he didn't care much about it, and when the ninja retreated, he turned to look at Orochimaru and said, "Orochimaru sensei.... I wonder if you have a spare Kusanagi sword?

It was a pity to say the least.

But the white light chakra sword was broken.

It wasn't completely broken, but small cracks had appeared on the body of the sword.

Using the four Hachimon Tonko's four times the acceleration of time, combined with Chidori, was too heavy a burden for the white light chakra sword.

The nature of ninja swords varies, and the white light chakra sword is not very strong, but is made of some kind of special material more suited to chakra flow, and slightly less hard than ordinary steel.

This sword does not have enough strength, which is why Kakashi broke it in the anime.

Just in terms of attack power, Yeruashi's actual strike would probably be inferior to Hatake Sakumo's with the white light chakra sword, but the problem is that the difference in attack style is too great.

Sakumo completely mastered the 2nd stage of Hatake kenjutsu, which is based on changing the shape of the chakra, this method not only did not impose any burden on the sword blade, but could even make it more resistant and difficult to destroy.

But Yeruashi was different.

He uses the first stage of Hatake kenjutsu in combination with Chidori, and relies on pure speed to force the effect of the second level of Hatake style.

He did not notice anything during the battle, only noticing after killing Honku that small cracks had appeared on the blade of the white light chakra sword.

The sword would probably break after another battle like this.

Unless, before that, he could master the second level of Hatake Kenjutsu and that was not something that could be easily achieved.

Also, in most cases he would be using the Hachimon Tonko combined with the thunder nature, which would make it difficult to use the second level of Hatake Kenjutsu.

If we talk about stamina, perhaps only the Kusanagi sword can freely carry its great speed and fierce power.

Although the Kusanagi sword was not a short sword and was not compatible with the Hatake clan's Kenjutsu, it seemed to have the ability to lengthen and shorten freely.

Even if it could not be shortened, the important thing was that he could improve Hatake Kenjutsu, after all, what he had the most was time.

"..."

Orochimaru listened to Yeruashi's words and pondered a bit before understanding what was going on, then he said, "I don't have a spare Kusanagi sword at the moment, but I know the location of one..."

Yeruashi said nothing and waited for Orochimaru's next words, then saw him spitting a scroll from his body.

Orochimaru handed the scroll to Yeruashi and said, "This scroll contains the general coordinates of the Kusanagi sword, the ninja of that village are of Chuunin level, and with your skills you can easily deal with them."

This was the information he had received earlier, and he had planned to go and get it, but the war suddenly broke out and he was forced to go to the battle front, so he had to put this matter aside for the time being.

Yeruashi took the scroll. He actually wanted to say something about how he could tell which scroll was which with so many scrolls in his stomach, does it even put things in order there, or does it look like a woman's purse?

Putting these thoughts aside, Yeruashi bowed respectfully to Orochimaru and said, "Thank you very much, sensei."

"Ke-ke-ke, you're welcome."
