Chapter 41 New Weapons

After getting the Sword of Thor, Ye Lan returned to his room and carefully observed the legendary sword. He found that there were tiny cracks on it. It was not visible without careful observation, but for a master, this flaw was fatal. Ye Lan shook his head. This sword was actually not suitable for him.

Ye Lan’s use of Lightning Release was not very good, and no one knew why the Second Hokage, who was good at Water Release, would use this sword.

I need to think carefully about getting a new weapon. My original ninja sword is almost reaching the end of its service life after several high-intensity battles. If it happens two more times, it will probably break.

The next day, just as the sun was rising, Sasuke finally returned to the shrine with Naruto and Sakura. Even though Sasuke was unhappy with Ituotian, he would continue to carry out the mission.

Originally, Sasuke and his companions were still on high alert, guarding against Midori Aoi's attack, but this guy seemed to have disappeared and did not appear from beginning to end. Without his influence, Yi Tuotian did not know what kind of blow he suffered and left his opponent far behind and won the game directly.

"Is the mission accomplished? I still want to teach that green-haired guy a lesson!" The game was over, which meant that the mission had been successfully completed, but Naruto felt like something was missing.

"Okay, now that the mission has been completed, let's hurry back to the village and don't waste time." At this time, Ye Lan, who had not appeared before, walked in front of the few people, holding their backpacks in his hands.

After taking the backpacks, Sasuke and Sakura looked at each other as if they realized something. The Rain Hidden Ninja who was Green Aoi was definitely dealt with by Ye Lan.

Nothing happened on the return journey. Ye Lan, as the team leader, submitted the mission report and the Sword of Thundergod directly to Tsunade.

Originally, Ye Lan wanted to keep it for himself. This was an item obtained outside of the mission. It would not be a problem even if Ye Lan did not hand it in. The main reason was that this Sword of Thor was already damaged and it had great symbolic significance, so Ye Lan chose to hand it in.

"Is this the weapon that Second Grandpa used?" Tsunade murmured as she picked up the Thundergod's Sword. The power of the Thundergod's Sword mainly depends on the user. The stronger the user, the greater the power of the sword. Methods like Aoi's, who only waved it around randomly and used it as a shield, could not bring out its power at all.

"You can keep this sword for yourself. Consider it my compensation to the Uchiha clan." Tsunade handed it to Ye Lan again. She also saw that the sword was slightly damaged, and there were not many people in Konoha who could use this sword now. Ye Lan was considered the most outstanding swordsman in Konoha.

"Lady Tsunade, I know very well that the affairs of the Uchiha clan have nothing to do with you, you don't have to..." Ye Lan still respected Tsunade very much. In his opinion, Tsunade was the one among the three ninjas who contributed the most and was the most responsible to Konoha. The affairs of the Uchiha clan were closely related to some high-ranking officials of Konoha, but had nothing to do with Tsunade, although her last name was Senju.

"Why are you being so fussy? I really doubt whether you are from the Uchiha clan. This sword is of no use to me. Instead of leaving it alone, you might as well let it make some use of its residual heat. The sword is already broken, so you can go back and repair it or forge a new one. I won't ask." Tsunade waved her hand generously, and the matter was settled.

Ye Lan did not refuse anymore and accepted the sword.

"If you want to reforge it, I recommend you go to the largest ninja tool shop in the village. Their craftsmanship is quite good." Tsunade said before Ye Lan left.

...

The largest ninja tool shop in Konoha. After Ye Lan left the Hokage's office, he searched for a while and finally found his destination. It was a very grand ninja tool shop located on the most prosperous street in Konoha Village.

"Welcome." As Ye Lan entered the room, a girl's voice rang out. The voice made him feel familiar. He turned around and saw that it was Kai's student Tiantian.

"Eh? Senior Ye Lan?" Tiantian was a little surprised when she saw Ye Lan. She had never talked to Ye Lan, but had met him twice during the Chunin Exam. She knew that this ninja who was only two years older than her was already a Jonin of Konoha.

"So the store that Lady Tsunade was talking about is the one opened by your family." Ye Lan thought of Tiantian's fighting style. It was indeed not something that ordinary people could do. His family must be very wealthy.

"Did Lady Tsunade recommend it to you? I didn't expect our store to be so famous." Tiantian felt a little embarrassed. The person she admired most was Tsunade, and she had always aspired to be a female ninja like Tsunade.

"Well, I want to forge a ninja sword, so I came to ask for help from your family." Ye Lan directly stated his purpose.

Tiantian felt that it was inappropriate to talk in the hall, so he asked Ye Lan to come to the second floor, called a master and said, "If it comes to forging ninja swords, my uncle is very good."

Ye Lan saw that the person coming was a middle-aged man in his forties or fifties, with dark skin and thick calluses on his fingers. He knew that this man was an old master who had been working as a blacksmith for many years.

"Dear guest, what kind of ninja sword do you want to make? Do you want to prepare the materials yourself or do you need us to provide them?" Tiantian's uncle said. He had heard from Tiantian that this seemingly insignificant young man was a senior ninja in the village, so he naturally did not dare to neglect him.

Bang—Ye Lan opened the sealed scroll, and the Thunder God Sword and the Ninja Sword he used before appeared in front of everyone. He pointed and said, "My previous Ninja Sword has been damaged. Now I need a new one. The requirements are that it can transmit chakras of different attributes well and be sharp."

The uncle picked up the broken ninja sword and looked at it for a few seconds. He couldn't help but shook his head. He could tell that this sword was not an ordinary one. He didn't know what kind of battle had caused it to be in this state. It would be very difficult to repair it. He put down the sword and picked up the Thunder God Sword. The Thunder God Sword must be injected with chakra to show the blade. The uncle was also a ninja, but now he is retired.

He could see how to use the Thunder God's Sword. With a little chakra injected into it, the Thunder God's Sword emitted a dazzling light. The uncle's eyes couldn't help but brighten up. This sword was very rare. After careful observation, he found that there were damages on the sword.

"Sir, do you want to use this sword to repair your original weapon?" The uncle asked tentatively, and seeing Ye Lan nodded, he continued.

"Actually, I don't recommend you to do this." Seeing that Ye Lan had some doubts, the uncle said quickly. He was afraid that Ye Lan would be dissatisfied. He knew that even among Konoha's senior ninjas, there were only a few who could come up with such a weapon.

"Although the material of your previous weapon is good, it is not uncommon. If you use your original weapon as the main body, even if you use the sword in my hand to melt it again, there will not be much improvement. On the contrary, it will reduce the quality of the sword. I suggest you use the sword in my hand as the main body." The uncle did not know the name of Thor's Sword, and pointed to the Thor's Sword in his hand and said.

"To be honest, although I am proficient in some fire escape techniques, water escape techniques, and wind escape techniques, I don't use lightning escape techniques very often." Ye Lan expressed his concerns.

"In that case, I can extract the lightning properties of this sword so that you can use it." The uncle thought for a while and said.

Hearing that his uncle could extract the lightning from the Thunder God Sword, Ye Lan's eyes lit up. Tian Tian's uncle was still a little bit curious and couldn't help but ask: "Can we use the extracted lightning to make another ninja sword?"

When the uncle heard Ye Lan's request, he became hesitant and didn't know how to explain it to Ye Lan.

Ye Lan: "It's okay, just tell me if you have any difficulties."

"Of course, you can. Since you only have the materials for one ninja sword, if you want to make another one of similar quality, the price will be a bit expensive..." Seeing Ye Lan say this, the uncle couldn't hide it anymore.

“How much?” Ye Lan thought it was just a small matter. He had completed many tasks since returning to the village. Money was nothing to him.

"Including the cost of materials and processing fees, it would be thirty million taels." When the uncle saw Ye Lan say this, he thought he was a rich man and put his hands together and directly quoted the price.
