Chapter 122: The Original Version of Impure World Reincarnation
The Spiritualization Technique is said to be Kato Dan's signature ninjutsu.
The reason why a forbidden technique can be used as a signature undoubtedly shows that the user has a unique talent that ordinary people do not have. Just like Naruto can use the Multiple Shadow Clone Technique without risk because he has Chatonla, Might Guy can control the side effects of the Eight Gates because of his strong physical fitness and hard training in physical skills.
There are always some special people who can rely on their talents to make certain forbidden techniques no longer forbidden techniques for them.
Namikaze Minato guessed that Kato Dan probably also had an excellent affinity for using the Spiritualization Technique, which enabled him to control this forbidden technique and eventually become famous for it.
With curiosity, he immediately studied the detailed content recorded in the forbidden technique.
"Sure enough, this is a unique ninjutsu of the spiritual system..." A few minutes later, after carefully reading all the records and detailed explanations of the Spiritualization Technique, Namikaze Minato fell into deep thought.
The conditions for manipulating spiritual power are the same as those for using illusions. Both require the caster to have chakra of Yin Dun attribute as a congenital condition. The secret techniques of the Nara clan and the Yamanaka clan are derived from Yin Dun. Fortunately, the chakra attributes of Minato Namikaze are fire, wind, thunder, yin and yang. If you want to try to learn this technique, the basic threshold has at least been reached.
However, the difficulty is naturally not only this. The art of spiritualization is actually a more advanced and risky ninjutsu than the art of heart transformation.
The principle of the art of heart transformation is to use the soul to concentrate the spirit at one point to release one's own spiritual power to seize and manipulate the opponent's body. The released spirit can only move in a straight line under normal circumstances. And because the main body of the soul is still in the body, there will be a limitation that once the enemy's body is successfully occupied, the enemy's body will be injured and the person will also be injured.
But the art of spiritualization is different. This technique is to directly use spiritual power to materialize one's own soul and transform it into a living soul, so as to achieve a short-term separation from the body and move freely in the spirit state. A powerful ninjutsu. Because this technique uses spiritual power to completely liberate the soul, the spirit body has independence and the ability to attack or even erode and control the spirit of others. Moreover, the damage caused to the enemy's body after possession will not be fed back to the original body.
In other words, once the enemy is successfully possessed by the spirit transformation technique, there will be two ways to kill the enemy in your hands. Either directly attack the soul to cause the enemy's spirit to collapse from the inside and die, or control and occupy the enemy's body to kill the enemy physically.
Despite this, this technique has a lot of flaws.
The seal book records that after the spirit transformation technique is successfully performed, the state of the materialized spirit body can actually be seen directly by the naked eye. In the original work, when Kato Dan was released from the restrictions of the Impure World Reincarnation and his soul ascended to heaven, he used the spirit transformation technique to freely control his soul that was about to ascend to heaven and rushed to see Tsunade for the last time.
Before that, he was trapped in the Four Purple Flame Formation performed by Akimichi Choza and others.
The fact that it can be seen and sensed by ninjutsu, and can also be restricted by the barrier technique, has already shown that this technique is not unsolvable and cannot be countered.
Finally, let's talk about the harm of this forbidden technique.
The spiritual transformation technique requires extremely high control of spiritual power. At the same time, if the spirit body chooses to attack the enemy by soul erosion after possessing the enemy, it will take risks. Usually, the caster of the spiritual transformation technique has no burden on the spirit body because it has cut off the connection with its own body. When attacking the enemy's spirit, it will inevitably have a great advantage.
But there are always exceptions.
If the enemy's spiritual power is extremely strong, then this kind of soul erosion will have a reverse effect, and the person who died of mental collapse may become the caster...
Therefore, only those casters with super strong soul power, so strong that they can cope with the anti-erosion effect, can bear the side effects of this forbidden technique.
If Namikaze Minato guessed correctly, Kato Dan was able to use this technique without burden because of his super strong soul power.
After silently memorizing and learning the spiritual transformation technique, Namikaze Minato planned to practice and master this technique when he had time, because he vaguely felt that the benefits of learning this technique far outweighed the disadvantages of this forbidden technique. Moreover, he felt that his soul power might not be less than Kato Dan's. When the Nine-Tails power in his body was running wild some time ago, he was able to resist the erosion of Yin Nine-Tails for so long, which made him realize that his spiritual power might be very strong.
This incident gave him strong confidence in learning this forbidden technique.
Unknowingly, the sky outside the window was already dawning.
After flipping through the pages for most of the night, he still hadn't found the main topic. Namikaze Minato smiled helplessly and had to speed up the progress.
Finally, after a large number of pages that had been read were piled up, the four words "Immortal Reincarnation" finally came into his eyes. The appearance of these words also made Namikaze Minato, who had begun to look a little sleepy, a little more energetic.
The technique of the Impure World Reincarnation...
A forbidden technique that violates human ethics. This technique can call the souls of the dead back to the world from the Pure Land, and use living people as sacrifices as a medium to achieve the purpose of pseudo-resurrection. The body of the Impure World Reincarnation is immortal and the chakra is almost infinite.
However, using the souls of the dead is a great disrespect to the dead, and the conditions for using living people as sacrifices are also extremely cruel.
If you want to use this technique, you must not use it except in emergencies and times of crisis...
The above descriptions are the first introduction to the Impure World Reincarnation in the Sealed Book. It can be seen that the inventor also has a certain sense of moral condemnation for this technique. However, who is the Second Hokage? He is a ruthless person who invented countless forbidden techniques. There are too many people in this world who pursue power without scruples. In order to gain powerful strength, most people probably don’t care much about the above words...
Minato Namikaze continued to read down, which is the preparation conditions for the forbidden technique and the principles of ninjutsu.
The original Impure World Reincarnation technique in the Sealed Book is indeed a very complex and cumbersome forbidden technique. The scroll used to record this technique took a lot of space.
This forbidden technique is divided into three stages.
The first is the preparation stage, which requires a certain amount of flesh and blood of the person to be reincarnated, the controlled sacrificial living person, and the prerequisite to confirm that his soul exists in the Pure Land.
Then it is the casting stage, the ritual of sacrifice and summoning is launched by the seal, summoning the soul in the Pure Land and possessing the sacrificer.
The last stage is the servitude stage, making a special spell and burying it in the brain to erase its personality, because only the Impure World Reincarnation without self-awareness can become a tool that absolutely obeys orders.
After reading the lengthy introduction, Namikaze Minato frowned deeply.
Because, although the principle and application of this forbidden technique are clear to the details, it is far from enough in his opinion. For example, in the preparation stage, the flesh and blood of the reincarnated and the living sacrifices required are not required or explained in detail. But Namikaze Minato knows that the strength of the reincarnated person will be affected by the strength of the sacrifice.
The body of the original Impure World Madara is very close to his strength before death because of the quality of the sacrifice specially made for him by Kabuto.
In addition, in addition to the lack of these detailed annotations, the original Impure World Reincarnation also does not explain how to choose the object of the technique and when to be summoned, which is very important. If you want to resurrect the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, then the Third Hokage who is at the peak of his youth is naturally more valuable than the Third Hokage who is old before his death.
"It seems that this is really just the original version of the Reincarnation..."
Minato Namikaze was a little disappointed. He was sure that if he performed it according to the original version in the Sealed Book, the strength of the person being reincarnated would probably be too low to be seen directly.
Think about it, when Konoha was planning to collapse, even the old Third Hokage could deal with the First and Second Hokage of the Reincarnation, which was enough to prove that the original version of the Reincarnation Technique, the strength of the person being reincarnated, might not even reach the level of Kage, even if he was the God of Ninja.
Sure enough, the original version of the Reincarnation Technique still has a lot of room for transformation and improvement.
However, these were not the things that disappointed Minato Namikaze the most. What disappointed him the most was that if he really wanted to use this forbidden technique, he would probably need several months or even half a year to prepare and learn it. However, this prediction was still based on his best-case scenario...
