Chapter 192: Going to the Hall of Heroes to meet an old friend

After explaining everything to the attendees, including the overview of strategic goals, force deployment plan, tactics and weapons research and development, intelligence and reconnaissance, logistics support and supply...

The first Dawn High-level Meeting, which was jokingly called the Second Ninja World War Operations Meeting by Yunchuan, was over.

But when several people left one after another with their own thoughts and complicated thoughts, Yunchuan, who had returned to his seat, called Leyou at the back: "Leyou, stay for a while."

Hearing this, Leyou, who had already stood up, sat down again subconsciously. The old man turned his head to look at Yunchuan and scratched his head in confusion, saying: "Lord Yunchuan, do you have any other instructions?"

At this moment, the dim light in the meeting room came in from behind Yunchuan, dispelling the dull and cold atmosphere.

In addition to Leyou, Xiaonan stood behind Yunchuan very obediently. Yahiko, who wanted to leave with Qiuyu but was pulled by Xiaonan's sleeve, scratched his head.

"Konan."

Without answering Leyou's doubts, Yunchuan looked at Xiaonan behind him and asked with a smile: "How is the development of the God's Paper Art going?"

Xiaonan was stunned for a moment when she didn't expect to hear her name suddenly, but after meeting those blue eyes, she reacted instantly.

Suppressing the throbbing in her heart that had been suppressed for a long time due to hard training, she said in a crisp voice: "The detonation tag production technique is very complete, and it is very suitable for my secret technique. I have mastered it now."

Yahiko's expression was a little confused, only Leyou seemed to have thought of something, and the expression on his old face was very surprised.

Looking at the girl who was the most "ordinary" among the three little ones he picked up, Yunchuan pointed to the paper flowers in the vase in front of him and smiled: "Try it."

"Yes."

As if realizing something, Xiaonan was a little excited, took a deep breath, and made seals with both hands very skillfully.

As a small amount of chakra flowed out, it connected with the paper flower frame in the vase.

Kaka! Kaka!

The paper flower gradually floated up from the vase, and then quickly spread out into a piece of paper in the air, and then automatically changed and folded into a paper crane.

The strange black lines gradually appeared and extended on the surface of the paper crane like vines.

In less than a minute, a detonating talisman with the word "explosion" written on it...

No, it should be said that a "detonating flower" with the word "explosion" written on it appeared out of thin air and was slightly suspended in the air.

Squeak! !

Leyou stood up suddenly, and the chair slid across the floor, making a harsh noise.

"You..." He looked at Xiaonan in disbelief, looking at the girl, his whole old face flushed, and said in disbelief, "You can directly 'draw' the detonating talisman after you master our detonating talisman production formula?!"

Why is the price of the detonating talisman so expensive that even the jonin have to use it sparingly?

On the one hand, it is because the detonating talisman is a "strategic weapon", note that it is a "strategic weapon", not a "tactical weapon".

All conventional weapons can be considered tactical weapons, but not all tactical weapons are strategic weapons.

Strategic weapons are usually used to implement strategic strikes, weapons that can carry out devastating strikes on enemy strategic depth targets or enemy political, economic centers, military and industrial bases, arsenals, etc.

These weapons usually have great destructive power, have the function and ability to deter and destroy the enemy, and have a strategic restraining effect on the enemy, which can affect the entire process and outcome of the war.

Strictly speaking, the tailed beast is the biggest "strategic weapon" and an important factor in the strategic balance between countries.

Therefore, for every country, detonating talismans are good things that must be accumulated. Even if they are not used in non-war periods, they will still be purchased in large quantities, and the supply will not meet the demand, so the price will naturally be expensive.

On the other hand, because there are not many people who can make detonating talismans, the production of detonating talismans involves sealing techniques that only a few elite ninjas can master.

Of course, the "cloth binding technique" of the Sand Village, which wraps the enemy with cloth and then seals the enemy with a sealing talisman, should not be called a sealing technique. If the people of the Uzumaki clan hear it, they will easily laugh.

The only content of sealing techniques that really involves "Bound Art" is the sealing talisman used to seal the enemy's chakra.

And the "detonating talisman" is also a kind of "sealing talisman".

It is necessary to prepare special chakra paper and drawing tools in advance, and then rely on one's own deep chakra control ability, combined with specific seals, spells and techniques, and go through specific processing and sealing steps to make the detonating talisman have the ability to explode.

Even for a master who specializes in making detonating talismans, even with the most advanced detonating talisman manufacturing technology in Yangyan Village, it takes half an hour to successfully make a complete low-power detonating talisman.

But this girl in front of you can "draw" the detonating talisman at will without special paper and ink, without any preparation? !

This is simply a perfect match for Leyou's original "fantasy" of the "detonating talisman production technique"!

"You, do you know what this means?"

Leyou took a few steps forward, looked at Xiaonan with burning eyes, and said excitedly: "If you can cooperate with the experiment..."

"Eh!"

Xiaonan was frightened by Leyou's performance, and subconsciously stepped back a few steps to hide behind Yunchuan, pinching the corner of his clothes and carefully sticking his head out.

"Hehe, don't be afraid, this little old man has such a personality."

Yunchuan touched Xiaonan's head and comforted her a little, then looked at Leyou who was so excited that his squinting eyes widened, and said: "Leyou, don't be so excited, sit down and talk."

"...Yes."

Le You finally looked at Xiao Nan with a fanatical look, then nodded and sat down.

Yunchuan handed Jiyun in his arms to Xiaonan, and Xiaonan subconsciously took it and held it in her arms. The furry feeling made her heart soften, and a smile appeared on her timid face.

"Meow."

Jiyun opened his sleepy heterochromatic cat eyes, stretched out his cat paw and patted Xiaonan's arm, as if to comfort him, then closed his eyes, not caring that his pillow had changed.

"Xonan's abilities and secret techniques are quite special, and her talent in ninjutsu is very good. Therefore, in terms of ability training and development, I did not let her give up studying chakra and ninjutsu like others."

Yumukawa withdrew his gaze from Konan behind him, looked at Leyou with hot eyes in front of him, and said, "Although I know a little bit about chakra and ninjutsu, I don't have a deep understanding of it, so I can only give her some suggestions."

"Leyou, can you see the principle of the technique Xiaonan uses?"

Hearing this, Le You's eyes flickered slightly, and he pondered: "It seems that it should be due to her superb control and use of chakra?"

"By injecting chakra and attaching it to the surface of the paper, converting the paper into a tough material similar to chakra paper, it should be possible to turn it into weapons, armor and traps of various forms and functions?"

As he spoke, Le You couldn't help but sigh: "Master Yunchuan, you made a right decision by not letting this child specialize in swordsmanship and breathing techniques like others. Otherwise, her talent would have been buried."

"With flexible plasticity, strong practicality, and even camouflage, he is simply a natural auxiliary ninja. I have never seen this way of controlling and using chakra. It is really strange and exquisite."

Having said this, he looked at Yunchuan with some curiosity and asked: "Master Yunchuan, was it you who inspired her to develop this secret technique that can perfectly utilize and give full play to her own advantages and talents? Also, why?" Where's the paper crane?"

Yun Chuan shook his head, smiled and touched Xiaonan's lowered head, and said frankly: "It has nothing to do with me. The main reason is that Xiaonan likes origami and accidentally discovered her talent. I just came to me when she came to see me. A little reminder of the direction of ability development.”

"The fluttering, folding, unfolding, deformation, etc. of paper are the basis, and the hardness, sharpness, toughness, etc. of paper are advanced. The subsequent ability development and application are logical, whether it is simulation, camouflage, masking, aggregation, combination..."

Hearing Yun Chuan say this, Xiao Nan, whose head was lowered, turned red.

In fact, when I was making origami cranes for Kumikawa, I felt that the quality of the paper in the Land of Rain was really poor. Then I remembered the chakra extraction technique I had learned, and then I suddenly had the idea to attach chakra to the paper.

Thinking of this, Xiaonan lowered his eyes and looked up, as if he could see the paper flower above his head.

This was the paper flower that she gave to Yun Chuan. After that, Yun Chuan sent it back to her together with the chakra refining technique. Instead of letting her put it directly in her hair, she kept relying on it. Chakra control attached to the head.

At that time, she didn't know the meaning of this kind of thing. She just thought that Brother Yunchuan didn't like the paper flowers she sent and was afraid that she would not take back the gift.

After being frustrated for a while, she thought again, folding some other things while practicing the chakra refining technique.

Later, she happily held the paper cranes to find Brother Yunchuan, but when he asked why the paper cranes were different, she realized what big thing she had done unintentionally.

This was also the purpose of Yunchuan sending back the paper flower. It was not so much the talent she discovered on her own as it was discovered under Yunchuan's guidance.

When Yahiko and Nagato followed Kumokawa out for training, she was left in Dawn City and did nothing. Instead, she stayed in her room and developed this secret technique according to Kumokawa's suggestions. and extension.

Origami requires meticulousness, patience and concentration, not to mention relying on chakra control.

It felt like folding paper with invisible hands. That feeling could drive people crazy, and it also made her mind become more delicate and calm.

"Paper is a free thing. It can hold anything and is not restricted. But paper is still paper after all. It cannot withstand fire or water immersion. The only problem with this technique is that The lethality is just too low.”

As if he thought of something, Yun Chuan couldn't help laughing and said: "I originally planned to give some detonating charms to Xiaonan for use, and let her mix them with ordinary paper to make up for the shortcomings of her abilities, but I didn't expect …”

Le You understood instantly and said with the same grin: "But I didn't expect that the detonating talisman production technique developed by us in Yangyan Village is so suitable for this girl."

Seeing that he had found a reason for himself, Yun Chuan could only smile and nod.

It can't be said that before he went to Yangyan Village, he had already guessed and coveted their detonating talisman production technique, and then exchanged it from Zhou Zhou for this technique and gave it to Xiaonan as a gift, right?

"That's why I left you alone."

Yunchuan coughed lightly, looked at Xiaonan beside him, and said in a gentle tone: "Xiaonan, during this period, you and Leyou will go back to the weapons research department to try to optimize and develop your abilities."

Hearing this, I understood that he wanted to cultivate his abilities, which made Xiaonan, who had always been left alone, pursed her lips before suppressing the small excitement in her heart.

Although he was still a little afraid of the old man, he nodded his head very obediently, looked at Leyou and smiled in a crisp voice: "Grandpa Leyou, please take care of me in the future."

"Hey, good, good! Good boy!"

Leyou's old face was almost smiling like a chrysanthemum, and he patted his chest and said confidently: "Don't worry, I'm here, I promise not to let you get hurt, and I can also train you into a 'human-shaped detonating talisman production princess'!"

Hearing this, Xiaonan's smile gradually became polite but not awkward.

Human-shaped detonating talisman production princess?

What an ugly name.

"Remember what you said." Yunchuan smiled and nodded at Leyou, jokingly saying: "If this child really has an accident, your entire equipment research and development department will be punished."

Xiaonan and Yahiko behind him could only hear his smiling tone, but Leyou was looking into the pair of dark blue eyes without a smile.

He instantly realized that Lord Yunchuan was joking to remind him of the importance of this girl. He was immediately shocked and hurriedly assured: "Please rest assured, even if my old bones are burned to ashes and all those little bastards in the R\u0026D department are dead, I will never let this child get hurt in our territory!"

"Well, I believe you."

Yunchuan nodded with a smile, took the black cat Jiyun from Xiaonan's arms, and said: "You can go, remember to pay attention to safety."

"Okay." Xiaonan glanced at him for the last time, and then left with Leyou.

In the entire conference room, only Yunchuan and the stunned Yahiko were left.

Yahiko is still shocked by Xiaonan's sudden change.

Some time ago, he went to find Xiaonan after returning from the Mountain Country and Yangyan Village, and saw Xiaonan still folding paper in her own room. He thought she was abandoned by the boss because of her poor talent.

Yahiko also comforted Xiaonan a few words at the time, but did not get any response, only a strange look from Xiaonan.

When he was kicked out, he was still scratching his head, wondering what that familiar look meant.

Now Yahiko finally knew.

That look was the same as the "look" Nagato gave him before.

That look was the look of a fool.

"Let's go, brat, the next step is to arrange for you."

Yunchuan stood up, patted Yahiko on the head to wake him up, and smiled faintly: "I'll take you to meet some old friends."

"Eh? Old friends? Or some?" Yahiko rubbed his head and was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously blurted out, "Where to meet?"

Putting Jiyun on his shoulder, Yunchuan stretched and yawned, "Of course, to Valhalla."

"Oh, Valhalla..."

Yahiko repeated muttering, then suddenly widened his eyes and said in surprise: "Valhalla?!"
