章節 32: Chapter 32 : Repair the White Fang’s Blade!
The blue original spirit liquid was extracted from the live broadcast room by Orochimaru, and he immediately consumed it.
The energy generated by it flowed into his body, rejuvenating his soul.
Orochimaru distinctly sensed the surge in his soul's strength and regained feeling in his hands.
However, the energy from the Original Spirit Liquid was quickly depleted.
At this moment, Orochimaru felt that his hands were no longer as burdensome.
He attempted to perform ninjutsu with both hands and found it possible, albeit at a slightly slower pace compared to his previous abilities.
Nevertheless, he could still form hand seals and even execute Summoning jutsu without assistance.
"It's quite satisfactory. While it doesn't completely heal my hands, I can at least perform ninjutsu. Plus, my soul's strength has increased, and the cost of using the Living Corpse Reincarnation technique has reduced significantly," Orochimaru remarked.
[Orochimaru: Third Hokage old man, my hands can now form ninjutsu seals again, hahaha! You sacrificed yourself to seal my hands, but it was all in vain.]
[Tsunade: The Original Spirit liquid can actually help your hands heal?]
[Third Hokage: It's unlikely that it completely healed them. Orochimaru's hands must still be affected. At best, he can perform ninjutsu using hand seals, though not at his previous speed.]
[Orochimaru: So what? My strength is all that matters!]
Next, it was the turn of the seven ninja swordsmen to receive their rewards.
Almost everyone received favorable rewards and expressed satisfaction.
Following that, the Third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen, received the reward for Adamantine Staff.
This time, Sarutobi Hiruzen acquired the Leaf of Life, a valuable item that could heal injuries or save lives.
[Third Hokage: Keeping the Leaf of Life for myself is of no use. I will exchange it with others in Konoha later. Let it benefit Konoha.]
[Tsunade: Thank you, teacher, on behalf of Konoha!]
[Orochimaru: Old man, he only becomes this generous after he's gone!]
[Uchiha Madara: Not very exciting; the rewards afterward seem rather ordinary.]
[Kakashi: My broken White Fang blade is also on the list. I wonder what rewards I will receive.]
[Hatake Sakumo: Son, don't worry. No matter what the reward is, Don't be disappointed.]
One by one, the rewards were distributed, and it was finally Kakashi's turn.
[Restoration Symbol: Repairs damaged weapons; the higher the weapon's level, the lower the degree of repair.]
[Kakashi: It's a treasure for repairing weapons! Excellent!]
[Might Guy: Congratulations, Kakashi! You can finally restore your father's White Fang blade!]
[Fourth Hokage: Kakashi, this reward is exceptional. In a year, when the list is updated, your White Fang blade may even make it onto the top of rankings!]
[Hatake Sakumo: Very good! This reward is perfect for you!]
[Hoshigaki Kisame: Damn it, why does your reward seem better than ours!]
[Kakashi: Luck!]
Subsequently, Kakashi retrieved the repair symbol.
Konoha.
Kakashi's residence.
He retrieved the broken White Fang blade he had kept hidden.
The weapon had been shattered into two pieces, and due to its exquisite craftsmanship, it couldn't be restored within Konoha's capabilities. Forcibly repairing it would risk further damage.
Therefore, he had preserved the weapon at home.
Now, with the Restoration Symbol, he could attempt to restore the weapon flawlessly.
Kakashi infused chakra into the Restoration Symbol, and it immediately transformed into beams of light, reuniting the two parts of the White Fang blade.
Under the symbol's influence, the white blade was visibly restored.
"What an incredible Restoration Symbol. The White Fang's blade, which had stumped Konoha's top craftsmen, was effortlessly restored by this symbol!" Kakashi marveled.
Soon, the White Fang's blade was completely restored, appearing as perfect as it had been originally, with no signs of damage.
At this point, the energy of the Restoration Symbol was depleted and turned to ashes.
"I need to retrieve Kubikiribōchō!" Kakashi determined.
Then, he headed to the Hokage's office.
Tsunade had returned and was currently acting as Hokage, though the official inauguration ceremony had not yet occurred.
At this moment, Kakashi needed to leave Konoha and sought Tsunade's approval.
A weapon like the Kubikiribōchō was of immense value.
Therefore, he had to secure it!
Hokage's Office.
Tsunade was managing Hokage affairs and preparing for the upcoming inauguration ceremony while also monitoring the live broadcast room.
Although she had Shizune's assistance, she remained quite busy.
It was then that Kakashi arrived.
"Kakashi, what's the matter?" Tsunade inquired.
"Fifth Hokage Tsunade, I need to leave Konoha," Kakashi said.
"Leave Konoha?" Tsunade furrowed her brow. During this time, Konoha was at its busiest, with Jōnin patrolling to prevent potential threats.
Hence, even Jōnin on missions outside the village rushed back to Konoha as quickly as possible, yet Kakashi wanted to leave.
"What's the reason?" Tsunade asked.
She wouldn't grant the request without a valid explanation.
"It's for the Kubikiribōchō," Kakashi confessed. "I left it with the body of its former owner out of respect when I defeated him in battle. But now, with the appearance of the Golden List's weapon rankings, the value of the Kubikiribōchō has skyrocketed. It's no longer just a one of Seven Ninja Swords; it's a treasure trove that provides valuable rewards like a duck that lays golden egg."
"How many people know the location of the Kubikiribōchō?" Tsunade inquired.
"It should only be me, Naruto, Sakura, and Sasuke. I don't know if anyone else, like Tazuna, knows about it. After all, once they died, they were buried without revealing the location," Kakashi explained.
"If Sasuke knows, does that mean Orochimaru knows?" Tsunade expressed concern.
After all, Sasuke had been taken by Orochimaru, and the live broadcast room confirmed his defection from Konoha, classifying him as a traitor.
"Well, Kakashi, I'll grant your request, but going alone poses some risk, especially if you encounter Orochimaru. With your current strength, it could be dangerous. I'll arrange for you to team up with Kakashi, and together, you should retrieve the Kubikiribōchō and return as quickly as possible," Tsunade decided.
"Yes, Tsunade-sama!" Kakashi replied.
