Land of Whirlpools, Hidden Whirlpool Village, VIP reception room.
"Just two key points: make the Chakra flow continuously in different directions and compress it. Think about how you burst the rubber ball before."
Shin'yu sat lazily in his seat, casually giving pointers, while Uchiha Nen immediately poured tea for his Grand Uncle.
Beside him, Uchiha Hikari sat much more elegantly, her slender waist straight, her jade legs crossed. She sipped her warm tea, observing Orochimaru in front of them, her picturesque eyebrows and eyes carrying a faint smile.
"Buzz—buzz—"
At this moment, Orochimaru's face was tense, his hands clasped together as if holding an invisible, round ball. As he continued to rub his hands, the air trembled, emitting bursts of hissing sounds.
The chaotic airflow quickly formed a rapid wind, and a point of blue light lit up in his palms, then slowly expanded, turning into a Chakra ball shimmering with light.
The restless energy stabilized, and the Chakra ball was like a night-luminescent pearl, steadily suspended in Orochimaru's hands.
Although it was only the size of a palm, the Chakra contained within was quite powerful. If this attack were to land, it was estimated that even the marble floor would be blasted open.
"This is... 'Rasengan'? Truly a remarkable Ninjutsu!"
Orochimaru's face was excited, and his long hair danced with the swift wind, his eyes lit up by the blue light, filled with joy.
Although he hadn't experimented with it yet, his intuition, honed over many years of immersion in Ninjutsu, told him how astonishingly destructive this seemingly gorgeous Chakra ball would be.
"Not bad, I thought you would have to use Shadow Clone, one to control the rotation, and one to control the compression to complete it." Shin'yu clapped his hands, nodding in satisfaction.
Orochimaru dispersed the Chakra in his palm, and the Rasengan slowly dissipated, turning into glittering light spots, slowly disappearing into the air.
He immediately bowed, "It's all thanks to Master's excellent teaching!"
"Little Snake, you're too modest." Light's voice was always clear and cold, "Even Nen took three weeks to barely master it. You only took three days. This Chakra manipulation ability is already very good."
Nen scratched his head a little embarrassedly, while Orochimaru blushed for once, glanced around like a thief, and whispered, "Lord Light, I'm already an adult, please don't call me that outside..."
Light was slightly stunned, a few amusement flashed in her eyes, and under Orochimaru's almost pleading gaze, she finally nodded.
Orochimaru quickly changed the subject, "Master's Ninjutsu is indeed powerful. If I integrate my Wind Release Chakra into it, the power will definitely be even greater..."
Shin'yu shook his head and chuckled, "You want to run before you've learned to walk? I had you learn 'Rasengan' just to let you understand the flow of Chakra, to lay the foundation for the next Ninjutsu."
"The next one?" Orochimaru tilted his head.
"Yes." Shin'yu slowly reached out in front of him, grasping in the void, and a crystal-clear Guardian God Sword took shape with the wind, the blade sharp, the whole body flashing with cyan light.
Although this sword looked like a real object in appearance, resembling Shin'yu's "Frost Descent One Heart" at his waist, Orochimaru immediately sensed that this sword was completely formed of rich Chakra.
"It's... 'Autumn Dew on Leaves'!" Orochimaru's eyes showed excitement, his pale cheeks flushed slightly, and the thought that Master was going to pass on his famous technique to him made his breathing quicken.
Even Nen beside him widened his eyes, not concealing his envious gaze at all.
"Don't be in a hurry to be happy. Over the years, you have devoted almost all your energy to scientific research in the Laboratory. Your practical combat skills as a Ninja seem to have become rusty." Shin'yu waved his hand, "It won't be too late to teach you 'Autumn Dew on Leaves' when you truly master the Rasengan."
Saying that, he glanced at his Grand Nephew, "Don't be too ambitious, develop your eyes properly. Lord Madara's things are enough for you to learn for many years."
The three talked for a while, and Uzumaki Kongming soon arrived late with a group of elders. As soon as they met, he showed off his loud voice:
"Brother Shin'yu, we're here!"
This morning, Shin'yu received a message left by the Uzumaki Clan through a Ninja Cat.
The exclusive seal targeting the "Karma" mark, developed by the Uzumaki clan's high-ranking members over seven years, has finally yielded results.
This seal is completely different from the past. It can not only accurately capture the target's aura to achieve targeted sealing, but also simultaneously function on both the physical and spiritual levels. In other words, it is a special seal formed by integrating the advantages of various Uzumaki clan sealing techniques.
"We have named it 'Infinite Sealing'!" Uzumaki Kongming proudly introduced.
The trials of the past seven years have also allowed him to grow into an outstanding Clan Head. He no longer possesses the laziness and frivolity of his youth. Beneath his seemingly rough and unrestrained exterior lies a mature and steady leader's heart.
After making some preparations, everyone dismissed their subordinates and immediately began the sealing process.
After all, this could already be considered the Uzumaki clan's highest secret, and confidentiality measures had to be adequate. A transparent barrier was even erected outside the council chamber.
Orochimaru clicked his tongue in wonder. He knew that Master had brought him here to show him the Uzumaki clan's sealing techniques.
This time, eight elders from the Uzumaki clan emerged. They wore cloaks and masks, standing on the left and right in an arrangement resembling the Eight Trigrams, surrounding Shin'yu and Uzumaki Kongming in the very center. They moved constantly, changing hand seals in unison, as if performing some obscure and difficult ritual.
As the hand seals were formed, streaks of ink-colored techniques emerged from the ground, interlinking with each other, quickly forming an intricate and complex magic circle.
Shin'yu, as agreed, bit his index finger, squeezed out a drop of blood, and gently dripped it into the center of the magic circle.
The air suddenly stagnated, and a faint red light flashed from the center, instantly illuminating the entire magic circle. The eight elders then stopped, sitting cross-legged at their respective focal points, chanting incantations.
The sound was like weeping and lamenting, as if monks in an ancient temple were piously chanting scriptures, saving the souls of the departed, with solemn expressions.
The wind stopped, the curtains stilled, and everything around slowed down.
Light unconsciously clenched her hands, and Orochimaru also stared nervously at the scene. At this moment, a light-shield-like aura had enveloped everyone in the magic circle.
Uchiha Nen was surprisingly calm. His Mangekyo Sharingan was already activated, and in his calm eyes, the scarlet sunflower pattern slowly rotated.
"Sealing Technique: Dead Demon Consuming Seal!" Uzumaki Kongming's eyes darkened, and his palms clapped together with a "smack" sound. Eight balls of ghostly fire burned fiercely. Amidst the sharp sound of an infant's cry, the phantom of the Death God emerged.
Holding prayer beads and a short sword in its mouth, the ferocious face revealed an expression that seemed to cry and laugh at the same time. The contemptuous gaze seemed to judge all living beings.
"Now!"
Shin'yu's eyes flashed with red light, and the power of Reversion suddenly activated, instantly resetting everything to zero, pulling the moment when Otsutsuki Urashiki had just branded him with the Karma mark back to reality.
"Drink!"
Under Uzumaki Kongming's control, the Death God's phantom suddenly swung its short sword, splitting through Shin'yu's crown. Some indescribable and inexplicable strange aura was instantly severed.
Light held her breath, unable to help clenching her hands tightly, not even noticing her nails digging into her flesh.
At the same moment, everyone moved.
Uchiha Nen's gaze was fixed on Uzumaki Kongming, releasing the "Ame no Tokotachi" that he had copied in advance, and the Death God's phantom instantly disappeared.
"Forbidden Technique: Infinite Sealing!"
The eight elders placed their hands on the ground at the same time, and a burst of intense red light illuminated the magic circle, causing those outside the magic circle to close their eyes involuntarily.
When the light subsided, the technique also disappeared, and Uzumaki Kongming and Nen breathed a sigh of relief.
Success!
The eight elders collapsed on the ground, panting, and took off their masks, revealing pairs of tired eyes. Their already gray hair was now even whiter, and their vicissitudes-filled eyes held an even deeper sense of twilight.
In the very center of the magic circle, Shin'yu opened his eyes.
He opened his right palm, and the "Karma" mark that had accompanied him for so long was completely gone.
This "data packet" representing Otsutsuki Urashiki did not disappear, but was imprisoned by a powerful seal, as if time and space had been frozen, completely stopping the "thawing."
And on his brow, there was now a teardrop-shaped spirit mark, fiery red, flickering with a faint light like breathing.
