Chapter 14 - Forbidden Jutsu

This is actually quite easy to understand.

It's probably like playing a game where a normal person can only control one hero at a time. Whether the user can fully utilize the hero's strength and complexity is another matter.

Forbidden Jutsu allows you to control multiple heroes simultaneously, and for each hero, you can perform at your own skill level, essentially doubling or tripling your combat power.

"The key isn't just that Forbidden Jutsu uses Chakra Threads in a more advanced way; it's also that Forbidden Jutsu incorporates the technique of separating consciousness using Chakra, as seen in Shadow Clone Jutsu. It's very difficult, so all Forbidden Jutsu are equivalent to B-Class Ninjutsu or higher. Those who can master Forbidden Jutsu are at least elite Chunin."

"Of course, this jutsu is less dangerous than Shadow Clone Jutsu. When a Shadow Clone is dispelled, all its sensations and memories return to the original body instantly. For most ninja, this is very dangerous, especially on the battlefield. Without a sufficiently strong will, one cannot endure such a massive influx of information."

"Forbidden Jutsu also consumes a lot of mental energy, but it's gradual. The user can stop when they're about to give out, so the safety of practicing it is quite high. Moreover, once you've mastered Forbidden Jutsu, it actually becomes relatively easy to learn Shadow Clone Jutsu."

"Next, I'll explain the different ways Forbidden Jutsu uses Chakra Threads. You are forbidden to share this information after you've recorded it..."

Qingshui silently jotted down every word the instructor said on his scroll, his pen moving swiftly.

Beside him, Sasori was doing the same.

Both he and Sasori had entered the Sixth Division of the Puppet Force.

After gathering information, considering it several times, and inquiring with Mamiya, a Jonin, Qingshui finally decided to join the Sixth Division.

Qingshui's Puppetry talent stood out among the many excellent Puppet Masters during the selection process. The only one who could compare was Sasori, who was two years younger than him.

Therefore, the conditions offered by each division were actually quite good; they weren't necessarily worse than the B-Class Little Boy Puppet.

However, the Sixth Division was indeed the most suitable division for him.

What truly made Qingshui decide was Sasori's invitation.

A few days prior, Sasori had approached him, inviting him to join the Sixth Division together, stating that he wanted to defeat Qingshui in their next match, and being in the same division would make it easier.

Even Elder Chiyo's grandson had joined the Sixth Division. Regardless of anything else, the Sixth Division was definitely the safest division in the Puppet Force, just as Ishido had said before.

Only after the last class could they truly be considered members of the Puppet Force.

Their previous applications to the Puppet Force, as well as the orders issued by the Sand Village's high command, only truly took effect at this moment.

"As expected, by joining the Puppet Force, my status in the Sand Village has risen, and my importance in the entire world has increased accordingly."

In the hallway, Qingshui remained calm, shifting some of his attention to the panel.

The progress bar surged at this moment, skyrocketing from 17.9% to 34.8% before slowing down, though it continued to inch forward.

"We're here."

Sasori's indifferent voice pulled Qingshui's attention away from the panel.

They had arrived at the Sixth Division's base within the Puppet Force headquarters.

From the outside, it looked like a medium-sized factory, built entirely from sturdy rock.

The Sand Village was poor, and trees in the desert were precious. Buildings generally didn't use wood as their primary material, relying mostly on rock and compacted sand.

"Aha! Finally, the new recruits are here! Now I'm a senior too!"

As soon as they pushed open the large door, a vibrant female voice rang out.

Qingshui looked over and saw two males and one female standing not far away.

The speaking girl had white face paint similar to Nohara Rin's, and a white cloth band around the top of her head, tying back her hair. She looked to be about fifteen or sixteen years old.

"Ahem, Jianxue, I heard the new recruits this time have strong backing, so you'd better not try to act like a senior."

Next to the girl named Jianxue was a young man with a similar appearance, about two years older than Jianxue. There was a resemblance between them in their brows.

The remaining person was Ishido, the Jonin he had met previously.

"Finally, you two are here. I'll briefly introduce myself. This is the Third Squad of the Sixth Division, and I am your captain, as well as the deputy captain of the Sixth Division, Jonin Ishido."

Ishido introduced himself formally, arms crossed over his chest.

"I'm Jianxue, a Chunin. I specialize in Earth Release and can also perform some basic Medical Ninjutsu."

"I'm Jianye, a Special Jonin, Jianxue's older brother, and Captain Ishido's subordinate. I specialize in Wind Release and Earth Release."

The remaining two squad members smiled warmly at Qingshui and Sasori as they introduced themselves.

"Qingshui, a Genin. I specialize in... well, besides Puppetry, I don't really specialize in anything else."

Qingshui shook hands with the squad members.

Aside from Puppetry, his other Taijutsu and Ninjutsu skills were only average to above-average among Genin; they weren't particularly outstanding.

"Sasori, a Genin. Same as him."

Sasori maintained his usual aloof demeanor, and his introduction was equally brief.

His emotions were always incredibly flat when it came to people or things he wasn't interested in.

"This is what I was keeping for you earlier."

Ishido handed the Sealing Scroll tied to his back to Qingshui.

Inside was the Puppet, Little Boy, that had been promised earlier.

"Also, Sasori, there's something else your grandmother said to give you once you joined the Puppet Force."

Ishido then pulled out a booklet from his Ninja Tool Pouch.

"Elder Chiyo said I had to deliver this Human Puppet creation notebook to you personally."

Sasori stared at the familiar handwriting on the cover, a slight look of surprise on his face.

"I understand."

For Qingshui, the best part about joining the Puppet Force was gaining access to advanced Puppetry knowledge, like the Forbidden Jutsu.

Secondly, members of the Puppet Force could purchase items from its warehouse at internal prices.

This allowed Qingshui to buy materials at a lower cost and improve his Puppets.

This applied not only to Fatty but also to Tom.

A Puppet weighing no more than fifteen kilograms was considered a benefit for Puppet Masters who participated in that training selection.

However, Qingshui wasn't in a hurry to modify his Puppets.

He planned to learn more first before undertaking that task.

The system panel was merely a tool that allowed him to perfectly optimize his Puppets to the limits of his knowledge and available materials in the shortest possible time.
