Bab 246: Chapter 246: The Way of Sage Jutsu

"Indeed, it's Boil Release."

"Now, superhuman strength is no longer exclusive to that woman from Konoha."

Mei Terumi, laughing cheerfully, tossed the crushed stone in her hand by the hot spring. She and Tsunade were not only rumored to be romantic rivals in the ninja world, but they were also equally matched in looks, strength, and status.

One was the Fifth Mizukage of the Hidden Mist Village.

The other was the future Fifth Hokage of the Hidden Leaf Village.

One had a pet bear, the other a tall and graceful figure.

In every aspect, they were equally matched, naturally leading to mutual disdain.

Looking at the triumphant Mei Terumi, Shishou smiled and said, "You are really impressive!"

Although Tsunade had already mastered Sage Jutsu, enhancing her superhuman strength even further, Mei Terumi, unlike Tsunade who could afford to spend vast amounts of time in peaceful training, had managed to develop a new application for Boil Release despite her busy schedule, showcasing her immense talent.

"Of course!"

"But are you sure you want to continue talking about this?"

In the hot spring, Mei Terumi straddled Shishou's legs, wrapped her arms around his neck, and then brought her lips close to his.

After a moment, the two parted, Mei Terumi's face flushed as she glanced at Shishou before submerging into the hot spring.

...

The next day.

In the Mizukage's office.

"Lady Mizukage, are you really sure about delegating all the tasks to this old man?"

"Many things have just started to fall into place. You need to be here to oversee them."

Elder Genshi of the Hidden Mist Village looked at Mei Terumi, who was sitting in the Mizukage's chair, trying to persuade her.

Early in the morning, Mei Terumi had summoned him and Ao, declaring her intention to become a hands-off leader and delegate all her tasks to him and the secretarial team, which Genshi naturally opposed.

"Elder Genshi, Shishou has received the teachings of the Three Great Sage Regions and is now preparing to teach me Sage Jutsu."

"So this time, I'm serious!"

Mei Terumi looked at Genshi, speaking solemnly.

She had already learned from Shishou about Tsunade's successful training in Sage Jutsu in Konoha, which deeply affected her.

Therefore, Mei Terumi was determined to delegate her duties and focus on her training, not wanting her strength to lag far behind Tsunade's due to her preoccupation with administrative tasks.

"The teachings of the Three Great Sage Regions?"

Ao, the Byakugan user standing next to Genshi, was shocked by Mei Terumi's words.

The Three Great Sage Regions were exalted places in the ninja world, with countless people having perished in the wilds seeking their teachings.

Hearing this, Elder Genshi was also taken aback, staring at Mei Terumi in disbelief.

The Three Great Sage Regions' teachings were well-known to him, and in his youth, he had also thought of seeking their Sage Jutsu.

He never expected that the user of the Flying Thunder God Technique had received the teachings of these three places and was willing to pass them on to Mei Terumi.

At the same time, Elder Genshi understood the significance of successful Sage Jutsu training for Mei Terumi and the Hidden Mist Village.

With this in mind, Elder Genshi looked at Mei Terumi and said solemnly:

"If it's for the sake of training in Sage Jutsu, then you can rest assured and go. From now on, you don't need to worry about the affairs of the Hidden Mist Village."

"As long as I am alive, I will not let the Hidden Mist Village fall into chaos!"

"And you must succeed in mastering Sage Jutsu!"

Knowing how important it was for Mei Terumi to master Sage Jutsu, Elder Genshi was willing to do whatever it took, even if it meant wearing himself out completely.

Ao also voiced his support:

"Lady Mei Terumi, you can focus on training with Shishou. I will fully assist Elder Genshi."

Ao understood the significance of Mei Terumi mastering Sage Jutsu. It meant her strength would reach a new level, surpassing that of the Five Kage!

By then, with a Sage among them, the Hidden Mist Village would be better prepared to face the threats posed by the Akatsuki.

"In that case, I leave the Hidden Mist Village in your hands."

Hearing their assurances, Mei Terumi nodded and handed the Mizukage's seal to Elder Genshi.

Afterward, she left the office and headed home.

On the third day, after summoning all the high-ranking officials, Mei Terumi announced that Elder Genshi and the secretarial team would handle all Mizukage duties.

She would go into seclusion to enhance her strength.

Elder Genshi led the secretarial team, vowing to hold down the fort until Mei Terumi's return.

...

On a deserted island in the Land of Water.

Inside a three-story wooden house by the beach.

"How do I look?"

Mei Terumi opened the door and walked in front of Shishou, spinning around with a slightly blushing face.

She was wearing a white qipao with blue edges that Shishou had bought for her, black stockings on her long legs, and high heels. Her figure was tall and curvaceous.

"You look beautiful!"

Shishou sincerely praised her.

"Really?"

Mei Terumi smiled, tugging at the tight qipao that made her feel a bit uncomfortable.

"Absolutely!"

Shishou nodded affirmatively.

Then, he handed her a box with a smile:

"However, since the weather is nice and we're at the beach, I think a swimsuit would be more appropriate."

"This was your plan all along?" Mei Terumi glared at Shishou, feeling the urge to bite him.

Shishou had said they were going to train in Sage Jutsu, but he brought her to this deserted island to enjoy a romantic getaway.

This made Mei Terumi both happy and guilty.

Happy because she finally got to spend sweet time alone with Shishou.

Guilty because she felt she was neglecting Elder Genshi, who was tirelessly handling village affairs.

The Hidden Mist Village was developing rapidly, and there was a lot of work to be done!

"Of course!"

"You're so beautiful, and you're the Fifth Mizukage of the Hidden Mist Village."

Shishou said shamelessly.

"Hmph!"

"I bet you enjoy bullying me because of my title."

Mei Terumi wrinkled her nose and took the box from Shishou.

Shishou's compliment made her feel good, so she decided to indulge him.

She opened the box.

"..."

Seeing the swimsuit inside, Mei Terumi was stunned.

A string bikini, barely covering the essentials.

Such a swimsuit might disappear with one wave...

Even with Mei Terumi's bold personality, her face instantly turned red as she glared at Shishou:

"I'm the Fifth Mizukage of the Hidden Mist Village! How can I wear something like this!"

If her subordinates saw her in this, it would be utterly embarrassing.

Shishou pulled Mei Terumi into his arms and smiled:

"No need to worry, it's just the two of us on this island."

"Besides, you promised to wear a swimsuit for me before."

With that, Shishou cupped Mei Terumi's face and kissed her.

A few minutes later.

Mei Terumi, kissed into a daze, looked at Shishou.

"What about the Sage Jutsu training?"

"I'm about to teach you the ancient secret art of the Love Sect."

"..."

Shikkotsu Forest.

After spending several days with Mei Terumi on the deserted island, leaving traces of their activities all over the place, Shishou took her to the Shikkotsu Forest, intending for the Great Slug Sage to personally teach her Sage Jutsu.

"So this is one of the Three Great Sage Regions, Shikkotsu Forest?"

Mei Terumi looked around at the dark and damp environment, holding Shishou's hand tightly as she nervously surveyed her surroundings.

She was about to meet the legendary Great Slug Sage, which made her extremely anxious and uneasy. After all, the hopes of her entire village were pinned on her. If she failed in learning Sage Jutsu, she would be too ashamed to return...

Shishou, sensing her tension, squeezed her hand and smiled at her, saying, "You will be here for some time to learn Sage Jutsu. Try to master Sage Mode within a few months, like Tsunade."

Hearing that Tsunade from Konoha had mastered Sage Mode in just a few months made Mei Terumi feel even more pressured.

Then, she suddenly frowned and asked Shishou, "It's really strange. The locations of the Three Great Sage Regions are unknown to other ninja villages, yet they are all connected to Konoha. And each one is associated with one of the Legendary Sannin. Do you know why that is, Shishou?"

The summoning beasts of the three Legendary Sannin—Tsunade, Jiraiya, and Orochimaru—namely Katsuyu, Gamabunta, and Manda, were well-known in the ninja world. The fact that these three summoning beasts came from the Three Great Sage Regions was common knowledge.

Shishou couldn't help but think to himself that the reason was because the main characters were all from Konoha, and so were most of the major villains. Moreover, the reincarnations of the Sage of Six Paths' two sons were also from Konoha. How could other villages compare with Konoha's heritage?

In response to Mei Terumi's question, Shishou smiled and said, "It's said that the ancestors of the Senju, Uchiha, and Uzumaki clans are descendants of the Sage of Six Paths, and the ancestor of the Hyuga clan is the Sage's brother, Ōtsutsuki Hamura. It's natural for Konoha to have a deeper foundation."

Mei Terumi was momentarily speechless upon hearing this and could only sigh, "It's truly enviable!"

Enviable was an understatement; Konoha's heritage was enough to make other villages green with envy.

Seeing Mei Terumi's expression, Shishou chuckled.

In his opinion, the Hidden Mist Village wasn't doing too badly, at least it had various kekkei genkai and the Shikotsumyaku. The Hidden Cloud Village was also somewhat fortunate, possessing the Gold and Silver Brothers' bloodline and the Sage of Six Paths' tools.

The Hidden Sand Village and Hidden Stone Village were the truly unfortunate ones, having no connection to the Sage's lineage and very few kekkei genkai, forcing them to painstakingly research ninjutsu on their own.

After walking for a while, they encountered the Great Slug Sage.

"Wow, it's huge!"

"It seems even bigger than the giant turtle you summoned last time!"

Seeing the colossal figure of the Great Slug Sage, Mei Terumi was slightly shocked and even more nervous. She could clearly sense the immense energy emanating from the Great Slug Sage, far surpassing that of the turtle from the Hidden Cloud Village.

"Don't worry, Katsuyu is very gentle," Shishou comforted Mei Terumi with a smile. Then he addressed the Great Slug Sage, "Katsuyu, I'll leave Mei Terumi's Sage Jutsu training in your hands."

Katsuyu...

Hearing Shishou refer to the Great Slug Sage as "Katsuyu," Mei Terumi was stunned, staring at him in disbelief. 'Is Shishou really that close to the Great Slug Sage? To dare call her Katsuyu... or maybe...'

The Great Slug Sage's eyes glanced at Mei Terumi, and she gently said, "No problem, Shishou. I can sense a familiar aura in her. She should be very suited for learning the Sage Jutsu of Shikkotsu Forest."

"Really?" Mei Terumi was pleasantly surprised to hear this from the Great Slug Sage.

The Great Slug Sage's voice was so gentle, like that of an older sister. And if what she said was true, Mei Terumi might soon catch up to that woman from Konoha.

"Familiar aura?" Shishou looked at the Great Slug Sage in confusion.

Then, he immediately thought of Mei Terumi's two kekkei genkai, Lava Release and Boil Release. Both of these kekkei genkai involved corrosive and dissolving properties, much like the Great Slug Sage's corrosive acid attacks.

And like Katsuyu, the Six-Tails Saiken, also had corrosive acidic abilities. There must be some connection here.

The Great Slug Sage examined Mei Terumi closely and confidently stated, "Her kekkei genkai are indeed branches of the slug clan's acidic and corrosive abilities."

"In other words, her body has a certain resistance to acid and corrosion, making her very suitable for another method of Sage Jutsu training in Shikkotsu Forest."

"Follow me."

With that, the Great Slug Sage's body split open, revealing an underground passage.

'From what Katsuyu is saying, does she have multiple methods or even several sets of Sage Jutsu training techniques?' Shishou wondered as he lit up a Fire Release Rasengan to illuminate the path, leading Mei Terumi into the passage.

The Great Slug Sage also created a small clone, which perched on Shishou's shoulder and followed them into the underground passage.

Soon, they reached a clear water pool inside the cave.

With her consciousness in the small clone, the Great Slug Sage explained, "This pool has no name; I usually call it the Acid Pool. It contains very dense natural energy, which can accelerate the training of Shikkotsu Forest's Sage Jutsu. With this pool, one could master the Sage Jutsu in as little as a month or as long as six months."

"However, the pool water is highly corrosive, so ordinary people cannot train in it."

"For this reason, I modified the Sage Jutsu training method of Shikkotsu Forest based on Mount Myoboku's techniques, allowing Tsunade to succeed."

Tsunade's Sage Mode is similar to Jiraiya's; it's not a perfect Sage Mode and requires the help of Katsuyu's clones to absorb natural energy. It's not like Hashirama's, which can be activated and maintained freely without external assistance.

Hearing the Great Slug Sage's explanation, Shishou curiously asked, "Not even Tsunade could endure the pool water with her Byakugō no Jutsu?"

The Great Slug Sage looked at Shishou oddly, "Sage Jutsu training isn't something that can be done overnight. If Tsunade kept the Byakugō no Jutsu activated for an extended period, she might not survive the training."

"Besides, being corroded by acid is very painful."

After speaking, the Great Slug Sage glanced at Mei Terumi and said, "But she has Lava Release and Boil Release kekkei genkai, which can alter her body's acidity."

"Combined with Shikkotsu Forest's secret techniques, she can naturally withstand the corrosive acid in this pool."
