Chapter 694: Mastering Dust Release & Success

Thinking of the accident just a while ago, even a kunoichi as strong as she was completely caught off guard. Even before she had realized what had happened, everything had already happened.

Thinking of the power displayed by the white light, she could say that it was amazing!

You must know whether it was the training facility of the Ancor Vantian, or the upper floors that were turned to dust by the white light, all of them were remodeled and reinforced by Kuroto not too long ago, however, these remodeled and reinforced areas were instantly pierced like tofu block.

And that wasn’t all, but even the defensive barriers protecting the air fortress weren’t any different from those tofu-like floors; the instant white light touched them, they were breached and broken. Even if the attack was made from the inside, the barriers were still supposed to work, but they clearly didn’t in the face of the white light, clearly highlighting the terrifying destructive power of white light.

The destructive power displayed is fine, however, the type of destruction was a bit different, making her confused.

Stroking the jagged edge of the breach, she muttered in confusion, “The instantaneous destructive power displayed earlier is without a doubt by Dust Release, but why is the state of damage different from the type displayed by Ōnoki? Does Dust Release vary from user to user?”

After thinking about it, she felt that sudden accident just now, and traces of damage don’t actually match the complete and perfect form of Dust Release, meaning, the accident here was definitely caused by an incomplete or perhaps imperfect form of Dust Release, and it is very likely that this imperfection is because of the incorrect ratio of the three chakra natures used by her.

The importance of the correct ratio of chakra natures is very high while using a Kekkei Genkai or Kekkei Tōta, nobody knows this better than Kuroto who has mastered so many Kekkei Genkai from scratch.

When the accident happened, she felt that she had found the right chakra ratio, however, it seems that she was wrong. She is very close to finding the right ratio, but she hasn’t yet found it.

Here, once again the importance of information and guidance is reflected, if she had someone to teach her, then she wouldn’t have made this mistake and wouldn’t have to waste so much time and effort and she also wouldn’t have to take a lot of detours to find the right chakra ratio.

But there’s no helping it, she doesn’t have all these benefits and because her objective is to master Dust Release, hence she has to do everything.

After performing some crude repairs to the giant hole in the Ancor Vantian, and redeploying the barrier, she used a simple clay bird, left the floating fortress, and came to a deserted island on the Shinobi Continent.

The previous accident caused a very big loss for her, but it also highlighted that she is very close, so doesn’t want to waste a lot of time here and there.

Strike while the iron is still hot since she is already very close, then put some additional effort and completely master it.

After landing on the deserted island, she thought about it for a second and decided to remove her shinobi bag, put it on the back of the clay bird, and motioned it to fly at a high altitude.

Having experienced the accident not long ago, she didn’t want to be careless and carry dangerous things like explosive clay on her body, who knows if another accident happens and this time the explosive clay explodes. If such an accident were to occur, then she wouldn’t even have any bones left of her body by the time smoke clears up.

Anyway, after completing all the preparations, she took a deep breath, calmed her mind, and again started to process of fusion of three chakra natures.

Unlike previous tries, this time, the process of fusion was quite smooth and she didn’t face any difficulty in particular.

This time, she also tried to maintain stark control over the white cube emerging between her hands, she made sure that it didn’t fire itself on something and tried to adjust the levels of different chakra natures in an attempt to find the right combination and ratio.

After a while of continuing the same practice, her eyes narrowed subconsciously because she felt that she has finally found the right combination.

To confirm her guess, she stabilized the white fluorescent light between her palms, and then slowly released it in the direction of a small sea shell lying on the sand not far away.

Phush…

She looked intently at the sea shell and soon noticed that with a soft sound of sand falling, the sea shell disappeared without leaving any trace behind.

“Oh my god!” she exclaimed in shock, but soon that shock turned into excitement, “It… it succeeded!”

If the Sandaime Tsuchikage of Iwagakure were to see the scene that happened just now, he would be in disbelief to find out that a Kunoichi successfully managed to learn Dust Release, that too without any prior guidance or support!

Caw Caw Caw

Just as she was excited, and dancing in joy, suddenly a sound of crow cawing reached her ears.

She looked up and noticed a crow flying towards her. Finding her, the crow descended down, landed on her shoulder, and extended its clay forward for her to take out the small scroll tied to its feet.

She did exactly that, and after reading the message on the scroll, she was more excited and overjoyed because she has received another good news, “So, Danzo’s trace has finally been found?”

She had expected Danzo to deliberately leak his tracks in order to lead Homusubi to fight her, obviously, she is very well aware that this is going to be a trap, but despite this, she plans to take the bait because of the earlier threat of Danzo is resolved, the earlier she will the pair of Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan in her hands.

As she was reading the information sent to her, another crow flew down and landed on her shoulder, and it also extended its claw forward so that she can take out the small scroll tied on its feet.

She did that exactly, and after taking out the scroll from the second crow’s feet, and read the content on this scroll.

As she read it, she couldn’t help but frown for a while, then her brows arched crescent and she muttered in an amused grin, “Well, I must say, this is certainly very interesting…”
