Reborn into Naruto World with Tenseigan

Chapter 692: Mastering Dust Release

After a few days of training Kuroto’s soul that is currently inside the body of the Earth Clone learned how to use the Explosive Release Kekkei Genkai and the Explosive Clay in battle.

At the same time, his soul also adapted to this new body quite well. There was no longer any discomfort or sort, overall, she would say that it’s quite comfortable and cozy.

“It’s as if this clone was tailor-made to use Explosion Release… everything is coming very naturally, it’s really convenient…” she muttered with a smile, looked down, and added after a pause, “Well, as long as I ignore these knockers hanging on my chest, I’d say my luck isn’t too bad…”

Well putting aside, the matter of the clone’s gender being a female, she dried the sweat on her body using a towel and then thought of the next step.

The fact that she managed to learn Explosion Release is a good thing, and quite commendable might she adds, however, mastering the Explosion Release wasn’t the target. The goal was to master Dust Release.

For those who don’t already know, Dust Release is perhaps the only existing Kekkei Tota that exists in the current shinobi world, and it is the result of the fusion of the Earth, Fire, and Wind Chakra Nature.

As far as she knows, there have been only two shinobi in existence so far who have mastered the Dust Release, one of them was the Nidaime Tsuchikage Mū who died in the battle against the Nidaime Mizukage Hōzuki Gengetsu.

While the other, and the only alive shinobi who is capable of using Dust Release is none other than the Sandaime Tsuchikage of Iwagakure, Ōnoki of Both Scales.

Since she has already mastered the Explosion Release, now it’s time to put her effort into learning this very Dust Release.

Originally, she didn’t plan on learning the Dust Release so early, after all, Dust Release is no joke, it’s a Kekkei Tota… The result of the fusion of three Chakra Natures.

Fusing three chakra natures together is several times more difficult than fusing just two chakra natures, the difficulty is increased exponentially!

But since this clone has such good affinity with not only the Earth Chakra Nature, but other natures as well, and because Kuroto already has a wealth of experience in fusing different chakras together and creating Kekkei Genkai several times, she decided why not just give it a try?

Even if it is extremely difficult, there is no harm in trying, right? I mean what’s the worst that can happen?

“Even if it’s the fusion of three chakra natures, in the end, it’s just a Ninjutsu, and if it’s a Ninjutsu, it can definitely be mastered!” She muttered with a determined expression and then got to work.

After calming her mind, and taking a few deep breaths, she began to gather Earth Chakra from her body.

Earth is her primary chakra nature, so as soon as she started, immediately a rush of Earth Chakra Nature erupted out of her body.

With the Earth Chakra erupting out of her, she took control of it and gathered it in the palm of her left hand, this marked the completion of the first step.

Now comes the second step, the difficult step. For the second step, she simultaneously molded the Wind Chakra Nature and Fire Chakra Nature in her stomach, gathered the Wing Chakra Nature in the palm of her right hand, and also gathered the Fire Chakra Nature in her mouth, this much was easy, the difficult part from here…

With all the three Chakra Natures ready, she brought them together and attempted to slowly fuse them…

And as soon as she did…

Boom!

A loud explosion occurred, and her clothes were shredded and turned to dust, and at the same time, her entire body, including her hair was charcoaled. Oh, and don’t forget the injuries, there were several cuts and burns on her arms, chest, and face that were bleeding.

Although it was a very small accident, the result is still very bad. All her clothes are shredded, her entire body is blackened with dust and there are also a lot of injuries.

“Well… now I know why Nidaime Tsuchikage Mū wrapped bandages over his entire body…”

She thinks that Mū must have suffered similar injuries too while mastering Dust Release.

As for the question, why did the Sandaime Tsuchikage Ōnoki not suffer such injuries? Perhaps it was because Ōnoki had Mū’s guidance. Mū guidance must have helped Ōnoki to tread the path of mastering Dust Release without too many difficulties.

But unlike Ōnoki, she doesn’t have such luxury. Not only does she have to find the method of fusing three chakra natures, but she has to also find the accurate ratio of all the three chakra natures that the Dust Release comprises.

Hence, the difficulty…

I mean, it’s not that she didn’t try to get some resource that would help her and give her some understanding of how to master the Dust Release, but it didn’t work out.

A few months ago, while Kuroto was working on the Earth Chakra Nature Clone, he instructed Uchiha Itachi to sneak into Iwagakure and find anything related to Dust Release… Itachi did as was asked of him by Kuroto, but even he couldn’t find anything!

There was no scroll in Iwagakure that recorded a single thing about the Dust Release… This led Kuroto to speculate that either all the techniques of Dust Release were passed down from shishou to student through word of mouth, or, there does exist the scroll of Dust Release in the Iwagakure, however, it is safely hidden somewhere, and only the current Tsuchikage is aware of its location.

Understanding that she won’t be able to get much help in this regard, she simply gave up on acquiring the scroll and decided that she will master the Dust Release by herself.

Although it would be a little bit difficult for her, she is willing to put in the required effort and master it at all costs because this is what she wants to do.

Anyway, not being concerned about her injuries or dirt, or her nakedness, keeping her mind cool, and not being affected by the explosion, she started to analyze what went wrong.

Of course, she does understand the problem that led to the explosion, “It seems Wind Chakra Nature would be a little problematic here…”

Well, now that she knew the problem, she also knew how to solve it… with that understood, she quickly gave it a second try, which again resulted in a failure; of course, however, she didn’t care about the failure all that, from each failure, she was learning something and applying in the next trial.

The third time, the fourth time, the fifth time, the sixth time, the seventh time, and the nth time. The trials continued… Until finally she got the hang of it and understood how to fuse three different chakra natures.

Finally, taking a deep breath and restoring her calmness, she gave it another try, and this time, there was no explosion… instead, something white started to emerge in her hands, and as it started to emerge, she also felt that her chakra reserves were depleting rapidly.
