Chapter 16: Chapter 16: Are Ninjas from the Naruto World Body-Training Geniuses in the One Piece World?
"Not just my mother! The entire ninja world has people who possess this unique characteristic!"
"Indeed, if people from the ninja world came to the pirate world, or had access to resources from the pirate world, wouldn't everyone be a body technique genius?" Uchiha Kaigen thought to himself.
However, he knew that even with three times the number of cells, not everyone could reach the same level of physical training abilities. Mighty Kaizō's body technique prowess far surpassed that of most people from the ninja world.
"Hmm! Once we meet Might Guy, I'll figure out a way to bring him into our fold."
"Even, maybe I'll gradually help his father, earn his loyalty, and first make a contract with his father!"
Uchiha Kaigen silently made a firm decision. Might Daitai's body technique abilities shouldn't be inferior to Might Guy's.
There's always a difference, but it's all about the conditions and the foundation!
Might Daitai's Eight Gates technique was perfected through hardship, which left many hidden injuries!
This significantly lowered his potential.
As for resources, they were even more limited.
In contrast, Might Guy had his father's support, which provided better resources, even though it wasn't as much as his father initially provided.
"I understand!"
Kureha, seeing that Kaigen had understood, turned and began walking out, asking as she went, "I've already given you everything on my side, isn't it time for you to give me my medical books?"
Kaigen followed, laughing as he replied, "The medical books are memorized in my mind, I've already transcribed over a hundred copies. I'll give these first."
"The remaining ones, I'll continue copying, I hope you understand!" Hmm! If she doesn't understand, then he can't help it.
"Oh?"
Kureha was slightly surprised and gave Kaigen a quick glance, though she didn't doubt the truth of his words.
"Well! Over a hundred copies should be enough for me for a while!"
"Your memory is better than I imagined!"
Soon, the two returned to the living room.
Under Kureha's watch, Kaigen waved his hand, and from the spatial storage, he retrieved the more than a hundred transcribed medical books. He handed them to Kureha. "Here... these are my transcriptions. I won't give you the originals, I won't copy them a second time!"
"You're okay with copying them again, right?"
He was preparing to trade part of the medical books and medical knowledge for ninjutsu related to the ninja world!
As for trading with the village?
That was never part of his plan.
For now, he wasn't going to involve the Third Hokage and others.
"You're really a devil!"
Kureha froze slightly in surprise upon hearing this and picked up one of the medical books to flip through.
In the end, Kaigen's ability to pull out so many books out of thin air did surprise her a little, but she quickly recovered.
A hundred books... that was quite a remarkable ability.
The spatial storage ability wasn't rare, but she had seen it quite a few times.
"Hehe!"
Kaigen chuckled and shrugged.
"These books weren't allowed to leave the original place, so I naturally had to copy them. It's a fair exchange for both of us!" Kureha had thousands of medical books, and if Kaigen were to transcribe all of them, he couldn't even imagine how long it would take! However, he wasn't planning to transcribe them for now. He decided to memorize them all first.
Only when needed would he start the more precise transcription work. Having a powerful mind really was convenient.
Next, Kaigen, accompanied by his mother, went to a nearby town to purchase a large amount of medicinal herbs.
It would be enough for them for a long time. After returning, he began preparing the medicine.
Kureha noticed that Kaigen was a bit slow at first, but soon his proficiency and skill in preparing the medicine improved rapidly, and she was not surprised at all.
Kaigen already had years of experience in preparing medicines, which made it easy for him to succeed.
At first, his body was still unfamiliar with the process, but after a short period of adaptation, he got used to it.
[Kaigen prepared a medicinal concoction, Medicine-making Proficiency +1, Medical Proficiency +1.]
[Kaigen...]
...
He prepared a total of twenty medicines. Ten of them were for Kureha, and the rest were for him.
"Here, Mom, try a bottle and see how it works!"
After finishing the preparation, Kaigen handed one of the medicinal concoctions to Uchiha Zhi'an.
"Alright!" Uchiha Zhi'an immediately tilted her head back and drank it.
Soon, she felt a warm current spreading throughout her body. In certain areas, long-standing injuries and hidden wounds began to quickly dissipate.
Then, she suddenly felt an intense hunger.
Kaigen seemed to have anticipated this and waved his hand to retrieve a portion of food he had stored in the spatial space, placing it on the table.
He gestured to his mother and said, "Eat! After finishing, practice your cultivation to enhance the effects."
Kaigen then drank a bottle of the medicinal concoction and waved to store the remaining bottles.
He closed his eyes and carefully observed the changes in his body.
[Kaigen consumed a top-tier medicinal concoction, Body Condition Recovery... Lifespan increased...]
He could clearly feel that the various organs that had weakened due to previous deficiencies were now rapidly recovering.
As the medicine began to take effect, Kaigen felt a strong sense of hunger.
Opening his eyes, he immediately walked to the table and began to eat the meat of a Sea King-class creature.
After taking a bite of the meat, he quickly felt his stomach filling and a sensation spreading throughout his body.
His digestion ability had greatly improved, and the effect of eating Sea King-class meat boosted his recovery and overall vitality.
After finishing a plate of the Sea King-class meat, Kaigen moved to a corner to begin his cultivation.
[Kaigen ate Sea King-class meat to assist with cultivation, Proficiency +7, Lifespan +7, Vitality Source +0.025.]
[Kaigen ate Sea King-class meat to assist with cultivation, Proficiency +7, Lifespan +7, Vitality Source +0.025.]
...
"Indeed, the effects are improving, very good!"
Seeing these prompts, Kaigen couldn't help but smile broadly. With this, he would be completely recovered within a month.
"Next time, when preparing this type of medicinal concoction, I'll make sure to preserve enough of it, so the effects don't wear off!"
At this point, Kureha, who had been reading a book without paying much attention, casually reminded him.
Kaigen muttered to himself, "This should be the main stage of their recovery, right? Some type of tonic for recovery and cultivation? It's definitely good!"
He wasn't too worried, though; perhaps it could help him further.
For now, he didn't have the proper leverage to bring up such a topic with her.
He planned to interact more with Kureha and prepare more leverage before discussing the tonic and cultivation with her.
This was clearly a very valuable secret, and mentioning it hastily could backfire.
"Thanks for the reminder!"
Kaigen responded while continuing his cultivation. "I have special storage methods to ensure the medicinal effects don't wear off."
"You're right, I misspoke!"
Kureha, hearing this, glanced at the steaming food on the table that seemed freshly prepared.
She suddenly realized her mistake.
"Of course! Thanks for the reminder, we'll take that into account!" Uchiha Zhi'an, with a smile, interrupted.
This "demon" was definitely easier to get along with than she had initially thought.
The key was that the person was exceptionally talented!
Uchiha Zhi'an felt that she would need to build a better relationship with Kureha.
After all, a top-tier medical expert like her was extremely valuable.
