Can the human body's potential reach this level?
Kakashi Hatake didn't know, but he immediately realized that although Kitahara Kaede had always teased him about his lack of chakra, which he could only barely maintain at the level of an ordinary elite Jonin, he also had to suffer from the Sharingan's constant draining of his life force.
However, his body has indeed changed considerably due to the Sharingan. If the Sharingan factor is removed, his chakra level is now at least 70% higher than that of an average elite Jonin.
It should be noted that the Hatake clan is not known for its large chakra reserves; they are just ordinary samurai with a lineage that excels in Hatake swordsmanship. In terms of their bloodline, they are not particularly superior.
However, this change is long-term and gradual, and it is also consumed by the daily wear and tear of maintaining the Sharingan, so it is never very obvious.
He had been plagued by a lack of chakra for many years, and thinking about this made him even more determined to find a way to awaken the Mangekyou Sharingan, which would then completely solve the problem of chakra deficiency.
But what does it mean when a cheat program is removed in the later stages?
He doesn't understand?
Where does this slang come from?
What he hated most about Kitahara Kaede was that he would say things that ordinary people couldn't understand at all, and he was so smug about it.
What a dog!
"A world of legendary eyes?" Itachi Uchiha pondered this question, a thought that Kitahara Kaede had initially made at the same time. "So, does this 'legendary eye' refer to a dojutsu (eye technique) or bloodline limit? In Kitahara Kaede's eyes, are dojutsu and bloodline limits that much stronger than other bloodline limits?"
Itachi Uchiha was pondering the amount of information contained within.
In this ninja world, if we divide it according to the hierarchy, the top level is naturally the various ninja clans that possess bloodline limits, such as the typical Uchiha clan, Hyuga clan, Mizuki clan, Kaguya clan, and so on.
Secondly, there are some ninja clans that possess secret techniques but have not yet reached the level of bloodline limit, such as the Ino-Shika-Cho and Inuzuka clans.
Secondly, there are ninja clans that don't have any secret techniques passed down, but have their own unique traditions, such as the Hatake clan to which Kakashi Hatake belongs.
Secondly, there are small families like the Kitahara Kaede family, whose ancestors were ninjas. Although their rank was not high, they could always leave behind a few ninja techniques for their descendants. However, they can hardly be called ninja clans.
Finally, there are families like Sakura Haruno's, where no one in their ancestors was a ninja, and they themselves were the first generation of pure commoner ninjas.
As a ninja from the top-tier bloodline limit clan, Uchiha Itachi had his own pride. Whether it was practical experience or reputation in the ninja world, the Uchiha clan was indeed top-notch.
However, there are other clans that can rival the Uchiha clan, such as the Senju, Uzumaki, and Kaguya clans. Compared to these clans, the Uchiha clan does not have a significant advantage.
However, in Kitahara Kaede's eyes, the top-tier bloodline limit is still the bloodline limit of eye techniques.
Although he didn't know what Kitahara Kaede's evaluation was based on, since it was Kitahara Kaede who said it, he chose to believe it.
"Blood inheritance limit, how strong is it?"
Jiraiya took a sip of sake to warm himself up, then leaned against a large tree in the forest, with a campfire crackling in front of him.
Unlike Orochimaru, he relied on his own efforts combined with the Sage Mode system.
He dares to challenge even the strongest ninjas, but he doesn't have Orochimaru's obsession with the Sharingan.
Otherwise, he would have taken action when he first learned that Nagato possessed the Rinnegan. He disdained to do such a thing, and he didn't think that having the Rinnegan made him any stronger.
The Rinnegan is just one of the three great dojutsu bloodline limits, alongside the Sharingan and Byakugan. It's not like he hasn't dealt with the Sharingan and Byakugan before.
Neither the Uchiha nor the Hyuga clan could find anyone who could fight him, so he instinctively didn't take the bloodline limit seriously.
Of course, this conclusion is no longer accurate. In fact, there are still members of the Uchiha clan who can fight him, such as Uchiha Itachi.
For example, the future Uchiha Sasuke.
However, he did not believe that bloodline limits could determine everything, or that without eye techniques, bloodline limits were nothing.
The perfect ninja he knew was someone like the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze, who meant that even if you had a bloodline limit, you were nothing in front of him.
In the Tazuna family home, in Kitahara Kaede's small room, just as he was about to continue writing in his diary, he suddenly heard a few knocks on the window.
Kitahara Kaede opened the window and saw another version of herself.
It was the shadow clone he had previously sent out to find Tazuna.
"Have you completed the mission?" Kitahara Kaede asked.
"Well, finding Gato wasn't difficult, but controlling him took a bit of work. He was accompanied by a group of rogue ninjas, but thankfully none of them were Jonin-level. After dealing with them, I used my Sharingan to control Gato and looted his cash and assets, bringing them back first," said Kitahara Kaede's shadow clone. "He also has a large amount of real estate and businesses. My suggestion is not to touch them for now; let him continue to manage them. This way, he can continuously generate cash flow for us."
"Well done." Kitahara Kaede nodded. He was satisfied with how the shadow clone was handled. However, the shadow clone was essentially the same person as him, with a similar thought process.
Kitahara Kaede's shadow clone took out a black leather case and handed it to Kitahara Kaede, saying, "Here is thirty million ryo, which is all the cash flow he can currently use. I also left the Flying Thunder God mark on him. If you want to make it easier to contact him in the future, you will need to bring a kunai engraved with the Flying Thunder God technique."
With my current chakra, if I don't fight, it can probably last for two months without dissipating, so you'll need to send a shadow clone to replace me every two months."
Kitahara Kaede took the black leather suitcase and couldn't help but smile; he'd struck it rich.
This is far greater than the loot from the last raid on the bandit's den; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it a windfall.
To put it simply, according to the current mission system in Konoha, the reward for a typical D-rank mission is between 500 and 10,000 taels, a C-rank mission is between 10,000 and 50,000 taels, a B-rank mission is between 80,000 and 200,000 taels, an A-rank mission is between 150,000 and 1 million taels, and an S-rank mission is over 1 million taels.
And this is just the overall reward. After deducting Konoha's 30% cut and then splitting it equally among the team members, there's not much left.
For example, the mission we received this time to escort Kakashi's team to complete their mission is a B-rank mission. Since the mission was issued by the Konoha government, there was no commission. However, the price was much lower than that of a typical B-rank mission, with a total reward of only 100,000 taels.
Kitahara Kaede, as the leading Chunin, received half of the prize, which was 50,000 ryo, while Hyuga Keiko and Aite Genryu each received 25,000 ryo.
Thirty million taels of silver is equivalent to him having to complete six hundred B-level missions.
Such a mission could easily take a month to complete, and in Konoha, the food expenses alone would amount to several thousand or even tens of thousands of taels of silver per month.
It seems like there's still some money left over, but in reality, if it weren't for Kitahara Kaede leading the team, Hinata Keiko and Ayumi Genryu could only barely take on some D-rank and C-rank missions, and wouldn't earn much money at all.
You could say we're all living life to the fullest (background music needed here)!
So why do even elite Jonin at the top of the food chain have to take on jobs? Because that's just how competitive the world is; if you don't do it, there are plenty of other ninjas who will.
The fact that even a powerful organization like Akatsuki has to take on missions to earn money speaks volumes.
So it's understandable that Naruto was so eager to do high-level missions. Besides being a kid who wanted to show off, the most important reason was that he was really poor. Eating expired food every day was unbearable for anyone.
Those Jonin who lead teams don't feel motivated when doing missions because their income drops drastically during that time, since the missions are low-level and essentially unpaid work. However, Konoha provides some subsidies, so it's still manageable.
However, according to Kitahara Kaede's memory, the mission in the Land of Waves was later upgraded to Rank A because it involved elite Jonin. So it would be reasonable for them, who were on a guard mission, to be promoted one rank.
Based on this calculation, each of them can at least double their income.
Of course, unlike other ninjas who had the deep-rooted idea that they dared not lay a hand on their employers, Kitahara Kaede had no such concerns. He would not be polite to an unscrupulous merchant like Gato.
After accepting the money, Kitahara Kaede did some calculations. "Two months, right?"
Of course, a normal person's shadow clones cannot last for two months. Even if they do nothing, the existence of shadow clones will consume chakra.
However, he is different. He has six times the chakra of an elite Jonin, and any shadow clone he creates is equivalent to three times the chakra of an elite Jonin, so he can naturally sustain it for a long time.
However, to be on the safe side, he still needs to have Flying Thunder God Kunai ready at all times. But what he has drawn so far is only the beginner stage of Flying Thunder God. As Kitahara Kaede's chakra grows larger and larger, the range of his senses also increases.
However, it is impossible to sense the Land of Waves from Konoha Village under any circumstances.
The only way to solve this problem is to draw a higher-level Flying Thunder God Technique or a talent for space-time ninjutsu, which would allow him to research it on his own.
Kitahara Kaede had tried before, but he really didn't have the talent for it and made no progress whatsoever.
There are very few people in the entire ninja world with this kind of talent. Otherwise, even though the Flying Thunder God Technique has been invented for so many years, there would still be more than just the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze, as its successor.
Minato Namikaze passed on the Flying Thunder God Technique to his Shadow Guard, but they only had a superficial understanding of it and couldn't use it in actual combat.
It is clear that very few people possess this kind of talent.
