Chapter 66: The Strange Statue
In these days of the New Year, the clouds of war between Konoha Village and Cloud Ninja Village have finally dispersed a little, and the two sides have tacitly chosen to restrain their actions in this festive festival, giving the ninjas facing each other a rare time to take a breath.
This can be seen from the fact that few people have been sent back to Konoha Hospital from the front line in the past few days.
Because the heat of the war had lessened, Kaichi Yamanaka also had a rare free time, and he worked tirelessly every day to personally guide Echizen Kazuya to practice, especially in the field of spiritual power.
On the seventh day of the new year, the time has come for Kaichi Yamanaka and Kaito Yamanaka to help Kazuya Echizen to carry out the inheritance test.
Early in the morning, Yamanaka Kaiichi took the radiant Echizen Kazuya to the ancestral hall of the Yamanaka family.
By the time Echizen Kazuya arrived, there were already many people waiting in the ancestral hall, and in addition to the two old men who presided over the ceremony with Yamanaka Kaito and Yamanaka Kazuta, who said that he would come to meet Echizen Kazuya and be tested, there were also many other people from the Yamanaka family.
Of course, the purpose of these Yamanaka family members is to see if Echizen Kazuya can accept and pass the test of inheritance.
Echizen Kazuya is also the only person who has accepted the inheritance test of the Yamanaka family as a foreign surname for so many years, and the secret art of the Yamanaka family has extremely strict requirements for the strength of spiritual power, and everyone is also very curious about whether Echizen Kazuya, who was touted by Yamanaka Kaichi, can complete the inheritance like the people of the Yamanaka family.
"Hahaha, Kazuya is finally here," the hedgehog-headed Kazuta Yamanaka said loudly as soon as he saw Kazuya Echizen.
Echizen Kazuya has been very familiar with this nervous little uncle, after the annual meeting, Yamanaka Kaze often goes to the Yamanaka flower shop to find him, and often takes Kazuya out to play, and has been taking care of him, although he looks nervous, but I have to say that the person is really nice, cheerful, confident, and full of enthusiasm.
Echizen Kazuya hadn't been told that he was going to accept the inheritance test of the Yamanaka family, so he was still a little confused to see so many people in the morning, but he still reacted quickly and politely greeted the elders of the Yamanaka family who were present one by one.
"Shall we start now, then?" Yamanaka Kaito looked at Kazuya Echizen, who was still in doubt, and asked Yamanaka Kaichi.
Yamanaka Haiichi smiled confidently and said, "You can start at any time, I've made Kazuya's mental state the best in the past few days, and he will definitely pass the test!" ”
Then he beckoned Echizen Kazuya to his side, touched his head, and said encouragingly: "Kazuya, you have to accept a inheritance later, don't be nervous when the time comes, just do what Grandpa Kaidou says, can you do it?" ”
"Huh?" Echizen Kazu, who was suddenly told what inheritance he was going to accept, was also a little confused, but the inheritance thing sounded lofty, he looked curiously at the three Yamanaka Kaito who were wearing strange clothes, and nodded and agreed to Yamanaka Kaichi's request.
"Then let's go down!" Seeing that Echizen Kazuya was clear, Yamanaka Kaito said in a solemn tone, and then took the lead and walked into the family ancestral hall.
Yamanaka Kaito and two other elders of the Yamanaka family walked in front and walked together to a stone slab painted with the Yamanaka family crest in the main hall of the ancestral hall.
Echizen Kazuya, who had been following several people, wanted to step forward, but was pulled by Kaichi Yamanaka.
Echizen Kazuya stood outside the hall with the others, looking curiously at the three people who were constantly sealing in the hall, and at the same time at Yamanaka Kaichi and the others who were also staring at the hall.
Yamanaka Kazuta spotted Kazuya Echizen, who was looking curiously, and stuck out his tongue at him mischievously, and then he was glared at fiercely by Haiichi, so he quickly turned his head obediently, pretending to be solemn, and looked at the three people on the family crest.
Echizen Kazuya also calmed down under the reminder of Yamanaka Haiichi, and instead of looking around, he stared at the three of Yamanaka Kaito seriously.
The speed of the three of them in the mountain is exactly the same, and this set of seals seems to be very long, the three of them have been sealed at the speed of two seals in one second for nearly ten minutes, and in these ten minutes, the atmosphere of the scene has constantly become solemn, as if some pressure has been pressed down from the top of the ancestral hall.
After the three of them finished all the seals, three strange statues slowly rose from the ground on the edge of the Yamanaka family crest, and in the face of this change, Echizen Kazuya quickly looked at it curiously.
The three statues depict an ape with a huge palm, a beast with two wings on the back of a tiger-faced man, and a monster with horns on its head and three long tails with the tip of an arrow at the tip.
Kazuya Echizen, who had never seen these statues in the Naruto anime, looked at the three statues in front of him that seemed to be exuding great menace, feeling that he was facing a real ancient beast.
Even Kazuta Yamanaka, who had always been arrogant, became cautious after these statues were summoned, and he didn't even dare to breathe.
"Haiyi!" , Yamanaka Kaito shouted with a serious face.
Echizen Kazuya barely took his attention off the statue, only to find that Yamanaka Kaito, who was standing next to the family crest, was already panting, as if he had consumed a lot of his physical strength by summoning three statues.
Yamanaka Kaiichi behaved quite calmly, and when Yamanaka Kaito called him, he calmly took Echizen Kazuya's hand, took Echizen Kazuya to Yamanaka Kaito's side, motioned Echizen Kazuya to stand in place and wait, and then walked alone to the inside of the family crest, facing the three statues surrounded.
Echizen Kazuya looked at Yamanaka Kaichi with a surprised gaze, only to see him neatly pull out a handful of kunai, decisively cut a wound on his thumb, and then imprinted the bloody thumbs on the eyebrows of the three statues one by one.
After Yamanaka Haiichi imprinted blood on the center of the statue's eyebrows, the three statues seemed to come to life, and the original stone eyes became transparent, and two faint cold lights emitted from their respective eyes, converging into the center of the Yamanaka family crest.
After Yamanaka Kaichi withdrew from the stone engraved with the family crest and walked back to Echizen Kazuya, the three of Yamanaka Kaito breathed a sigh of relief and began to form a lengthy seal again.
And Yamanaka Kaichi didn't stand, he gestured with his eyes to Yamanaka Kazeta, who was standing at the entrance of the temple, and Yamanaka Kazeta immediately handed over the big bag he had been carrying with him to Yamanaka Kai.
Yamanaka took out a very strange little fox-like creature with three eyes from the bag, and the little guy struggled with Yamanaka's hand, but to no avail.
"This is the heart beast, this little guy's blood can make people's spiritual power penetrate through the body, but it will only have an effect in a short period of time," looking at Echizen Kazuya curiously looking at the heart beast in his hand, Yamanaka Kaichi explained softly.
"Is that uncle going to kill it?" Echizen Kazuya was a little unbearable in his heart, and asked with a frown.
Looking at Echizen Kazuya's worried look, Kaichi Yamanaka chuckled and said, "You don't need to kill it, just take a little blood." ”
"That's good," Kazuya Echizen breathed a sigh of relief, carefully avoiding the little one's fangs and gently touching its head.
