Chapter 119: Might Guy Awakens Armament Haki, Naraku Teaches Six Styles, Haki Seeds & Nuclear Delivered, Third Raikage's Reaction
However, what puzzled Might Guy was that he didn't feel any changes at all.
Although Naraku knew Might Dai would likely develop something soon, he had no extra time or ability to teach Might Dai in detail.
So Naraku passed on all the knowledge he knew about Haki to Might Dai and let him selectively optimize it himself.
Might Dai truly lived up to his title as a taijutsu master—while Naraku was imparting Haki knowledge, Might Dai awakened Armament Haki.
Then Naraku suddenly thought: could the Marine Six Styles be replicated in the ninja world?
So Naraku recalled the principles of the Six Styles and prepared to teach them to Might Dai.
Naraku immediately said: "Dai, I have some taijutsu techniques here—some ideas of mine. Whether you can truly achieve or even optimize them depends on your ability. Do you have confidence?"
As for whether these "ideas" truly belonged to Naraku—Naraku could only say: in the ninja world, he was the first to propose them, so they counted as his ideas.
Even Oda-sensei couldn't cross worlds to collect patent fees!
At this moment, flames seemed to burn in Might Dai's eyes as he energetically replied: "Lord Naraku! I will definitely burn my youth to optimize them!"
Naraku then recalled the knowledge in his mind and said: "Shave—one of the Six Styles. In an instant (0.36 seconds), stamp the ground dozens of times at high speed to produce explosive reactive force for ultra-fast movement. From the enemy's perspective, it looks like instant teleportation. Iron Body—one of the Six Styles' defensive techniques. Channel power into a honed body, making it as hard as iron. However, while using Iron Body, free movement is usually impossible—this technique is mainly for defending against unavoidable attacks. The principle is accelerating blood flow to speed up muscle movement. Paper Art—one of the Six Styles' defensive techniques. Relax the entire body; by reading changes in airflow from the opponent's movements, the body becomes as light and thin as paper, allowing effortless control and dodging attacks by a hair's breadth. Moon Step—one of the Six Styles. Use powerful leg strength to step on air, generating strong hovering force—allowing walking in the air like climbing stairs, though you can't stay airborne too long. Using this high-mobility aerial technique lets you attack from the enemy's blind spot. Tempest Kick—one of the Six Styles' leg techniques. Not direct kicking damage to the enemy, but ultra-high-speed, powerful kicks that generate vacuum slashes to attack the opponent—easily cleaving targets in half. Finger Pistol—one of the Six Styles. A technique with the power of a gun firing bullets. Gather the body's full strength into the fingertip and release a lightning-fast strike with a hardened finger. The fingertip possesses immense piercing power, easily penetrating the human body."
"Lord Naraku is truly amazing! I will definitely redouble my efforts! The flames of youth are burning inside me!" Might Dai clenched his fist and declared.
"Good! Very spirited! When the time comes, compile the Six Styles, Armament Haki, and Observation Haki details into a book. That way, you'll become the founding figure of the ninja world's Haki system! This is a matter of carrying on the past and opening the future!" Naraku earnestly painted a grand picture for Might Dai.
He directly got Might Dai howling with excitement.
Naraku watched Might Dai leave carrying Gai and slightly shook his head.
The ninja world truly had pure and simple folk customs—his boss-level painting skills weren't even one-hundredth as good, yet he could hype Might Dai up like he'd been injected with stimulants.
Naraku then left as well and claimed Might Dai's replication reward.
Ding...
[Might Dai has reached Beginner utilization of Haki Seed. Talent Replication activated: Beginner Armament Haki.]
Unfortunately, Beginner Armament Haki didn't provide much improvement for Naraku.
Afterward Naraku returned to forging the Guardian Divine Machine [Supreme Throne].
One week later, Sarutobi Hiruzen found Naraku once again.
Naraku understood why he had come, so he walked with Sarutobi Hiruzen to the Hokage's office.
Naraku first took out the Haki Seed.
Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at the iron ball in Naraku's hand, quite puzzled.
After all, this didn't look much like a weapon.
Naraku said: "This is a Haki Seed—a kind of one-time-use weapon. The enhancement it brings is only a slight boost to defense and perception, and it requires a very long time to develop the ability. The usage method is to consume it—ensuring this weapon cannot be passed down. Considering all the above, I think it's quite suitable for Kumogakure. Those Cloud barbarians love training their bodies—they probably won't refuse."
To Naraku's surprise, Sarutobi Hiruzen said: "But if this thing is useless and the Cloud barbarians don't want it—what then?"
"No problem. When the time comes, I'll exaggerate this thing's power! Plus give them an instruction manual! Even if they later discover it's not up to par, they can just say they didn't develop it enough. Even if they manage to develop something, the Guardian Divine Machine [Supreme Throne] will already be finished," Naraku replied casually.
Naraku then took out the steel-wrapped ninja sword Nuclear. Without waiting for Sarutobi Hiruzen to ask, he said: "This ninja sword has Teigu-level attack power. When attacking, it affects both friend and foe and slowly erodes the body of the wielder and those nearby—so it must be sealed when not in use. This is perfect for Kirigakure!"
Sarutobi Hiruzen comforted: "Naraku, you've worked hard. For the village, the sacrifices you've made are too great. Creating these not-so-good weapons has some impact on your reputation, but Konoha will never forget you."
On the way back, Naraku once again felt Konoha was beyond saving.
Do something for the organization, and they just brush you off with "loyalty and righteousness."
Half a month later, Konoha delivered the two Teigu to the respective villages.
The Third Raikage A looked at the iron ball before him and roared furiously: "Just this broken iron ball—and Konoha thinks they can send us off with it?"
The busty secretary rolled her eyes at the Third Raikage A and said: "Later we can communicate with Konoha for more things anyway—and this thing isn't simple!"
She then handed the Third Raikage A the instruction manual Naraku had specially prepared, detailing knowledge about Armament Haki and Observation Haki.
Reading it, the Third Raikage A felt his heart blaze—he couldn't wait to swallow it and test whether his strongest spear & shield taijutsu or this so-called Armament Haki was stronger!
And Observation Haki might boost him even more—after all, he lacked a kekkei genkai. Sometimes his excessive speed caused him trouble.
This might allow him to further evolve his fighting style.
But his remaining sanity made him feel something was off. Why would Konoha give something so perfectly suited to him to Kumogakure? Even if it was one-time-use, it didn't add up.
