Chapter 230 Come back here, kid!
Kaito reflected on himself.
It seems that every time something bad happens, he thinks of Zabuza. He should be nicer to Zabuza in the future.
"Next time we meet, I'll teach Zabuza a couple of ninjutsu. After all, I'm his captain, and his name will be on the bingo book!"
After making the decision, Kaito no longer considered these trivial matters.
He continued to take out all the remaining prizes.
There's not much to say about the 'Ice Heal'. Kaito kept it for later use to reverse engineer the formula.
But Kaito estimated that he would not have much use for this thing.
The successful fusion of the Ice Style Bloodline Limit gave him a slight increase in cold resistance. Now that he has an 'Ice Body', he is basically immune to the negative effects of cold.
A weaker freezing effect on Kaito would probably only bring a slight chill, and might even restore his strength and heal his injuries.
The Yuki Clan's Ice Style mainly achieves physical damage through ice crystals. If they had an Ice Style like the one developed by Kaito himself, which used freezing air as a means of output, Kaito might be able to take on the entire Yuki Clan alone.
After putting away the 'Ice Heal', Kaito was still somewhat interested in another blue item.
'Fresh Water'
He took a small sip and found that it does contain some medicinal ingredients and has certain therapeutic effects.
However, what Kaito values is not this insignificant therapeutic effect, but its taste.
It was indeed as described, sweet and delicious, better than most of the drinks that Kaito had tasted in his previous life.
'I must research the formula for this thing!'
Kaito thought so.
Having an extra delicious drink is secondary. The key is that if the cost can be controlled, this might be a good way to make money.
Even if the price of the final deduced formula is too high, it can still be sold as a special drink to nobles from various countries, and should make a lot of money.
'Sigh, I won't have time to do this kind of thing until the war is over.'
After some emotion, Kaito also packed up all the other messy things into the storage box designated by Blue.
Then he happily began to familiarize himself with the ninjutsu and abilities he had just acquired in the training ground in the secret space.
Just as expected.
The passive effect of 'Ice Body' can indeed be triggered in the low temperature 'White Mist', and the physical recovery is very good.
Although Kaito did not directly open the three acupoints for testing, the duration of two acupoints increased a lot, and the feeling of weakness after closing the acupoints was also reduced a lot.
At least he could retain some combat capability and not surrender. And if he stayed within the range of the "White Mist", he would be able to replenish his strength quickly.
The effect of treating injuries is really hard to describe in words.
Ordinary cuts can be healed slowly over time, but for more serious injuries, such as fractures, this treatment is basically ineffective.
Kaito was forced to stand in the "White Mist" for a long time in pain, and finally had to fix his arm himself.
Kaito was also very satisfied with the effect of another ninjutsu, 'Powder Snow'.
This ninjutsu does not consume much chakra, allowing Kaito to try his best to expand the coverage of the ninjutsu.
Although the damage is relatively general, the control effect is extremely obvious. The moment the ninjutsu touches the training wooden man, a layer of white frost forms on it. After a while, the white frost will condense and spread, freezing the entire wooden man into a lump of ice.
Kaito even thought of giving these two Ice Style ninjutsu to Blue to learn, as he had the impression that the little guy should be able to learn ice-based skills.
After practicing the two newly acquired ninjutsu in various ways for several hours, he and Blue performed some fancy combination skills.
Only after the excitement had passed did Kaito and the little frog release the "secret power" and return home to rest.
The next morning.
It was a rare sunny day, and the usual heavy mist was gone all morning.
Kaito rummaged through boxes and drawers and found a few miscellaneous materials. He packed them all up and went out, rushing towards old man Shimotsuki's ninja tool shop.
That's right, that ninja tool shop now belongs to Shimotsuki.
The last time the tailed beasts attacked the Kirigakure Village, the Ninja Tool Shop was affected and completely destroyed.
The original owner felt that it was not cost-effective to continue opening the store after repairing and rebuilding it, so he planned to sell the store.
After Shimotsuki recovered from his injury and was discharged from the hospital, he learned about this and thought about taking over the store. He even went around raising money to buy the store and rebuild it.
Later, Kaito found out about this and lent a large sum of money to Shimotsuki, and the old man suddenly became the store owner.
When borrowing the money, Shimotsuki also suggested that Kaito buy the store directly or hold a portion of the shares.
It's just that Kaito didn't want to be old man Shimotsuki's boss and make their relationship too profit-oriented, so he simply chose to lend money and let the old man pay it back.
Kaito, holding the box, ignored the strange looks from the customers in the store and walked straight into the backyard.
The rebuilt store is not much different from the previous one except that it looks a little newer. Even the old man's rocking chair, which Kaito had specially made for him, was placed in the yard.
Kaito looked at the yard with satisfaction, then turned around and saw Shimotsuki standing beside him with an ugly expression.
"Hey, old man, how about the new materials I brought this time?"
"Go away! Do you think I'm the Sage of Six Paths? Do you want me to melt everything into the sword?"
Old man Shimotsuki didn't even look at what Kaito was holding in his hand, and started complaining with saliva flying.
"Inlaying that gem on the sword was already my limit. Do you know that it takes much more effort to modify a finished sword than to forge one from scratch?"
"Besides, you always bring some weird stuff here. Do you know that if there is even a slight change in the design drawings and formulas, the whole thing may have to be redone?"
However, Kaito paid no attention to Shimotsuki's indignant look.
He looked at the old man with a smile and shook the box in his hand symbolically.
"So what do you mean? should I take these things away?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Shimotsuki, who had been eager to drive Kaito away, immediately had a distorted expression.
He looked like he wanted to look inside the box, but was afraid he couldn't control his hands, and his entire upper body kept shaking.
'The materials this kid has are all good stuff!'
While Shimotsuki was still hesitating, Kaito had already raised his leg and took a step, as if to walk towards the front hall.
Shimotsuki gritted his teeth and stamped his feet.
"Come back here, kid!"
