CH 174

After entering the building, Kikuchi came to a hall with familiarity, and then released a mission of hiring a craftsman to make the Ninja Tool to a young man wearing the village’s forehead.

Because the materials he carried need to be dissolved first, and coupled with the current tense situation in the Shinobi World, the commission fee has also risen.

Kikuchi had no choice but to accept it. After filling in his information and address, he handed in the two scrolls and the commission fee with a dark face, and then took Kanpū to another, slightly smaller hall.

At the same time, Kikuchi explained to Kanpū: “Kanpū, that place just now is a place where you hired craftsmen to create a large number of standard Ninja Tools. And this is where you hired craftsmen to create a unique Ninja Tool. If you really want to ask the craftsmen to build you a sword, you can consult to the craftsmen here.”

Kanpū nodded slightly: “Thank you, Kikuchi-san.”

The two entered the small hall, and then found that there were quite a few people here, and all of them are Shinobi. They are divided into seven lines and lined up in the hall. These ninjas come from various Shinobi Villages, whispering to each other while queuing up, and their eyes are full of vigilance.

Kanpū looked around and found that most of these Shinobi are all wearing Kumogakure’s headbands, with slightly darker skin but strong and muscular body, the characteristic of Kumogakure’s Shinobi.

It can’t be helped, after all, among the Five Great Shinobi Villages, only Kumogakure has long respected Kenjutsu and Taijutsu, especially Cloud-Style Kenjutsu. Basically, all Kumogakure’s Shinobi are good at it, so their demand for swords is also very strong. Some Shinobi didn’t lack money, so they naturally have to ask the craftsman here to make a tailor-made sword!

Kanpū looked at these Kumogakure’s Shinobi, and inexplicably felt a bit of a rivalry in his heart: ‘Cloud-Style Kenjutsu, Konoha-Style Kenjutsu, which of the two schools of Kenjutsu is stronger?’

Suppressing the restlessness in my heart, Kanpū honestly found a line with Kikuchi, and after a while, it was their turn.

“What kind of Ninja Tools do you two want to build?”

At the end of the line, a middle-aged craftsman Shinobi sat there and said without raising his head, “If you have any requirements, just ask.”

""

“I want to build a sword that can transmit Chakra perfectly.”

Kanpū immediately spoke, “The sword must be straight, and the connection between the hilt and the blade should not be guarded…”

Kanpū eloquently said a lot of requirements, then the middle-aged craftsman Shinobi recorded them one by one, and then after a while, he raised his head and said: “According to your requirement, it will take twenty days to forge this sword, ten million ryō!”

“Ten million ryō?”

Kanpū’s eyelids twitched upon hearing this.

“Of course, the materials that can perfectly transmit Chakra are very precious and rare. Unless you can bring your own materials, this will be the price.” The middle-aged craftsman Shinobi said firmly.

“Cough.”

Kanpū coughed dryly and said, “Then I will lower the requirement slightly, it is enough to transmit 80% of the Chakra.”

“2 million ryō! Half a month!” The middle-aged craftsman Shinobi said.

“How much?”

The corner of Kanpū’s mouth twitched upon hearing this, ‘The difference is just 20%, but the price difference is 8 million ryō?’

The middle-aged craftsman Shinobi frowned slightly: “Do you think I’m lying to you?”

“No, no, I didn’t mean that.”

Kanpū hurriedly said, “Then 60%?”

“One million! Ten days!”

“50%?”

“Five hundred thousand! Three days!”

The middle-aged craftsman Shinobi’s face is already a bit ugly, “What kind of Ninja Tool do you want to make!”

Kanpū quickly calculated in his mind, ‘For 50% Chakra is 500,000, 60% is 1,000,000, 70% is 1,500,000, and 80% is 2,000,000.’

‘For every 10% increase, the price will increase by 500,000 ryō, then if it is the other way around …’

“I will build the 40%!” said Kanpū proudly.

Hearing this, the middle-aged craftsman Shinobi looked at him with a look of disgust, and said with a snort: “40%? There are so many of them outside!”

Kanpū sighed, feeling that he missed hundreds of millions, and then said: “Then I wanted the 50% one, but when you make it, I wanted to watch from the side!”

“Yes! One person adds 100,000, two people adds 200,000!” The middle-aged craftsman Shinobi looked at Kanpū with a little playfulness.

""

At a glance, he can see that Kanpū is coveting their technology. Unfortunately, only the Five Great Shinobi Villages has learned something from them over the years, but even if they have been imitated, they can never be surpassed.

Kanpū’s face looked a bit tangled when he heard this.

The construction cost of 500,000 and the observation fee of 100,000 is exactly the bulk of his net worth!

‘This will make me turn back to the past poor me.’

‘However, if one doesn’t enter the tiger’s cave, how can they catch a tiger cub. I’ll take the challenge!’

Kanpū took out 600,000 ryō and paid the middle-aged craftsman Shinobi on the spot.

After receiving the money, the middle-aged craftsman Shinobi copies all of Kanpū’s requirements on a scroll again, and then call a young craftsman Shinobi around 20 years old and gave him the scroll.

“Come with me.”

The young craftsman Shinobi glanced at Kanpū, and secretly thought ‘Another person who coveted our Craftsmen Shinobi Village’s technology.’

Since the observation fee paid was only for one person, only Kanpū followed, and Kikuchi had no choice but to go back first.

Kanpū followed the young craftsman Shinobi straight out of the building, and then walked through a few streets to a craftsman’s workshop.

In the middle of the craftsman’s workshop is a rather cumbersome casting table. On both sides of the wall, there are a large number of sword blades without hilts. Some are thick, some are narrow, some are long and some are short. There are straight and curved ones, and there are no less than fifty in total.

""

Apart from this, there is a small room behind, but the door is closed, so Kanpū can’t see what’s inside.

After looking around, Kanpū turned his attention to the young craftsman Shinobi: ‘It seems that he is a craftsman who specializes in making sword-type Ninja Tools.’

“This is where I made the Ninja Tools. You will watch it later, but you can’t talk. If there is something you don’t understand… I won’t explain it either.”

The young craftsman Shinobi said casually, “Also, don’t touch the blade on the wall casually.”

The muscles of Kanpū’s mouth twitched slightly, and he forced a smile and said: “I understand.”

“Humph.”

The young craftsman Shinobi snorted and didn’t say much. He then opened the scroll and started modeling according to Kanpū’s requirements.

Kanpū stood on the side and watched. The requirements he made were all based on the appearance of the Sword of Kusanagi that Orochimaru gave to Sasuke, but there was a slight difference in the middle, otherwise, Orochimaru could see that the sword he was using is exactly the same as his Kusanagi sword. Wouldn’t that just trying to find trouble?

After half a day, and the young craftsman Shinobi has successfully modeled the sword.

“Look, is this the style you want?” The young craftsman Shinobi showed the model to Kanpū.

Kanpū looked at the model seriously, and kept nodding: “Yes, this is the style, you are really amazing!”

“Even if you praise me, I will not teach you anything.” The young craftsman Shinobi refused the sugar-coated attacks.

After the modeling was successful, the young craftsman Shinobi went into the warehouse to select the iron ore.

Kanpū took the opportunity to observe the blade on the wall up close.

‘It turned out that these blades above were not sharpened.’

‘But…’

Kanpū tried to pour Chakra on a narrow and long sword that was very close to the model after the modeled one, and it turned out to be very smooth. He sensed it carefully and it was unexpectedly able to transmit about 70% of the chakra

Kanpū was a little excited at that time.

‘If I use this blade to make my sword…’

While he was pondering, the young craftsman Shinobi has walked out with a basket of iron ore.
