Multiverse Skill System

At the hot spring resort, in the bronze hot spring, Yi Shuihan and Tsunade were practicing their skills while standing on the hot spring.

Neither of them used ninjutsu, or more accurately, they both used traditional Chinese martial arts. Under Yi Shuihan's tutelage, Tsunade also entered the realm of Dark Force, although she was only at the initial stage.

The two fought in a way that was nothing like ninjas, but rather like two martial artists exchanging blows. Even the aftershocks of their battle were not as great as those of a ninja fight. They didn't seem very powerful; they just seemed to be a little faster than ordinary people.

However, it would be completely wrong to think that way. When you reach the level of internal strength, you can completely control your energy and inject your own energy into your body at the moment of combat, while simultaneously unleashing several layers of force.

It can be said that those who use hidden strength can make their attacks invisible on the surface, but in fact, their internal organs are completely destroyed.

If a master of internal energy (or a non-master of internal energy) fights, they can damage the opponent's internal body without the opponent noticing, leaving hidden injuries that the enemy cannot detect.

10 minutes later,

"Huff huff..." Tsunade was panting, her body completely soaked with sweat, so the bath towel clung tightly to her, her wet appearance perfectly exposing her figure to Yi Shuihan's gaze.

Seeing Yi Shuihan staring blankly at her, Tsunade felt both shy and very happy. Instead of covering up, she tried her best to show off her figure so that Yi Shuihan could see it more clearly.

Upon seeing this, Yi Shuihan walked up to Tsunade and made no attempt to hide his true feelings.

"Are you about to break through to the Transformation Realm?" Tsunade asked, enduring Yi Shuihan's antics.

"Good, we've got a clue. We can start working on the breakthrough in a few days."

"He's a monster. I've only just broken through to the Dark Force level."

"How dare you call your husband a monster! I'll punish you!"

As expected, their second, unconventional battle unfolded.

At this time, it had only been half a month since Yi Shuihan began practicing martial arts. Very few others had even reached the Ming Jin level, while Yi Shuihan had already begun to work on breaking through to the Hua Jin level. This was even with Yi Shuihan slowing down his training speed; otherwise, he would have already reached the Hua Jin level long ago.

Ultimately, his skill level was too high, so he encountered no bottlenecks in the early stages of his martial arts training.

Chapter 311, Hidden Strength Unleashed

News of martial arts eventually reached outside Konoha. The other four great nations all had their own spies in Konoha, and it was easy for them to find out about martial arts. After all, the original training methods of martial arts could be obtained at the Ninja Academy.

Each country attached great importance to its national martial arts, and in the end, they all issued orders to steal all of their national martial arts from Konoha.

Suddenly, the number of ninjas from outside Konoha surged, and battles were taking place in the shadows almost every day. Konoha was practically turned into a small battlefield, with Konoha fighting against multiple forces.

Konoha didn't have any good solutions to this, since even if they caught a spy, the spy wouldn't admit it, so they could only swallow their anger.

This matter caused the third generation a great headache, and Yi Shuihan heard his complaints quite often.

Root's new headquarters

Danzo held a scroll in one hand and studied it carefully. It contained the training methods of Chinese martial arts from Ming Jin to An Jin.

"What amazing taijutsu! It would be perfect for training subordinates. That Third Hokage actually put such taijutsu into the Ninja Academy, what a waste," Danzo muttered.

Because he lacked the stage of "transforming strength," Danzo, although he valued martial arts, actually regarded it as just an ordinary forbidden technique.

If Danzo had known that the Transformation Realm could cleanse the marrow and change the blood, greatly increasing the success rate of Bloodline Awakening, he would definitely not have the attitude he has now.

The Third Hokage held back a trick against Danzo, which made Danzo underestimate Chinese martial arts; otherwise, the promotion of Chinese martial arts would never have been so smooth.

"It's time to take revenge after revealing the news about Yi Shuihan, the master of martial arts. He killed so many of my men and is still living so well in Konoha. I absolutely cannot allow it," Danzo said sinisterly. His hatred for Yi Shuihan had never diminished, and he wanted to get rid of him at all times, but Yi Shuihan's strength had prevented him from making a move.

It must be said that Danzo's actions really worked. People from other countries learned that Yi Shuihan was the true master of the national martial arts, and immediately shifted their focus to Yi Shuihan.

Compared to snatching food from the Hokage's mouth, it's much easier to win over Yi Shuihan, who is just an ordinary person who is ostensibly a hot spring resort owner.

night is deep,

A group of uninvited guests arrived outside the hot spring resort.

"Hurry up, don't attract the attention of the Konoha ninjas, and leave immediately after you succeed."

"Yes, Lord Iron Fang."

Several years have passed, and Yi Shuihan now lives entirely at the hot spring resort. Behind the hot spring, there is a palace that is his residence.

Next to the palace, there was a side hall that served as the staff quarters, where Matt Dae would sometimes rest.

In Yi Shuihan's room,

Yi Shuihan suddenly opened her eyes, carefully removed the hands that were holding her, and then got up.

"Hmm!" Tsunade rolled over, exposing her smooth back completely to the air.

After tucking Tsunade in with the blanket and giving her a loving look, Yi Shuihan turned and left the room.

"Some fearless little bug actually came looking for me. It seems I really have been keeping a low profile!" Yi Shuihan's eyes turned cold, and anger was rising in his heart.

Yi Shuihan made no attempt to conceal his presence and headed straight for the intruders. However, what was extremely strange was that even though Yi Shuihan was right in front of these people, they completely ignored him, as if he were invisible.

"Eight Chunin, two Jonin, and one Kage-level, you really think highly of me!" Yi Shuihan looked at the masked men in black in front of him with some surprise.

Seeing that the men in black were about to approach the palace, Yi Shuihan made his move without hesitation.

He walked up to a Chunin and gently pushed him in the back with his palm. The palm strike seemed to have no force at all, and the Chunin didn't even feel it.

With a slight smile, Yi Shuihan continued to the next target and made the same gesture.

"The second one"

The third one

"..."

Soon, everyone except the one Shadow-level expert was struck by Yi Shuihan's palm.

The person who was struck by his palm still felt nothing and continued to slowly approach the palace.

Iron Fang stood at the palace entrance, gesturing for the others to enter first. He was extremely relaxed. As a Kage-level character, he shouldn't have been here; it would have been a waste of his talents. After all, the enemy he was dealing with was just an ordinary person, and his main role was simply to prevent any accidents.

Suddenly, Tieya froze, because he didn't know when a person had appeared in front of him. It was none other than Yi Shuihan, their target.

Yi Shuihan's appearance came without warning, leaving everyone feeling chilled to the bone.

"Have we been exposed? Kill him!" Iron Fang shouted, but did not make a move. He was on guard against the enemy in the shadows. He did not think that the person in front of him was Yi Shuihan, but thought that Yi Shuihan was a Konoha ninja who had transformed using a transformation jutsu, and that they were already surrounded.

"Ok?"

However, the next moment, Tieya found that everyone who came with him was standing still, as if they had not heard what he said.

"Are you under a spell? Release it!" Iron Fang formed hand seals, trying to dispel the illusion that did not exist.

"What? It's not solved? What happened?"

Things didn't go as Iron Fang expected; his hand seals had no effect.

At this moment, Tieya finally realized something was wrong, and a horrifying thought came to his mind.

"It's not nice of you to come so late and disturb others!"

Yi Shuihan looked at Tieya with a faint smile, as if he were looking at a clown.

"What did you do to them?" Tieya asked, looking at Yi Shuihan with shock and anger.

"Want to know what I did? Then you'll have to try it."

"Disappeared! Where?"

Behind Tieya, Yi Shuihan appeared silently and gently struck out with his palm, pressing it against Tieya's back.

"What is this...? What did you do?"

Tieya rolled forward and sensed Yi Shuihan behind him, but at that moment he did not realize that Yi Shuihan's attack had ended.

With the next breath, Tieya's expression suddenly changed, and he spat out a mouthful of blood, his face turning pale. He felt a strange force constantly destroying his body; his internal organs were already severely injured, and if this continued, he wouldn't live much longer.

"You should know about hidden force, right? I only used hidden force to strike you with a palm."

Yi Shuihan was very satisfied with the power of his hidden force. Although the reason why the hidden force was so powerful in his hands was largely due to his own strong strength, it wouldn't be so exaggerated when used by others.

Chapter 312, The Popular Hot Spring Resort

"Cough cough... It's actually internal force! Everyone underestimated you." Tieya looked at Yi Shuihan with a bitter expression and disbelief.

Before coming here, Tieya never expected to encounter such a thing. What was supposed to be a very simple mission turned into his own grave.

Such an ordinary person actually wields such powerful strength; the martial arts are so powerful that even his Shadow-level strength is no match for a single blow from the Dark Force.

If Konoha had a few more masters of internal strength like these, wouldn't they be invincible?

No, we absolutely must send this message back; we must make the village pay more attention to traditional Chinese martial arts.

Well, that's how a misunderstanding arose. Tetsuya didn't know that the power of Dark Force varies from person to person. If a Chunin or even a Jonin used Dark Force, they would definitely not be his match. Even if a Kage-level ninja used it, as long as they dodged well, he wouldn't be without a fighting chance.

Struggling, Tieya pulled out a scroll from his hand, and then, to Yi Shuihan's astonishment, gouged out one of his eyes and placed it on the scroll. He then made a series of hand seals and finally pressed them onto the scroll. The scroll and his eye disappeared with the smoke.

With a sigh of relief, Tieya's complexion improved considerably, though this was merely a temporary respite.

"Why didn't you stop me? If you intervened, I wouldn't be able to get the message back," Tieya asked, puzzled.

"Hehe," Yi Shuihan let out an ambiguous laugh. He was doing it on purpose. The more other countries valued it, the faster the development of martial arts would be. What reason did he have to stop all of this?

"What a terrifying man." He didn't get an answer, but Iron Fang seemed to have guessed something. However, he no longer had the strength to do anything, and he breathed his last after speaking.

Looking at the corpses scattered on the ground, Yi Shuihan shook his head. Sparks appeared in his hand, and with a casual wave, he turned the corpses into ashes, restoring everything to its original state, as if no intruders had ever appeared here.

In the following days, several more intruders appeared, but each time Yi Shuihan easily dealt with them and even gave them the opportunity to pass on messages.

Now everyone realized that Yi Shuihan was not someone to be trifled with, so they stopped sending people and instead joined forces to put pressure on Konoha, demanding that Konoha hand over the cultivation methods of the national martial arts, or else they would start another war.

The three wars sparked by traditional Chinese martial arts are about to erupt.

The Third Hokage was adamant about not handing over the national martial arts, even at the cost of war. This caused unrest in the ninja world once again, and the shadow of war seemed to loom over the entire ninja world.

However, the third generation eventually compromised because the other four great nations took an extremely tough stance, gathering nearly twenty Kage-level powerhouses to unite in Konoha.

The third generation handed over the cultivation method of the national martial arts to the hidden strength, but they held back a secret, exchanging it for a large amount of supplies, which allowed the four-nation allied forces to leave.

Yi Shuihan, who witnessed all of this, was overjoyed. The term "national martial arts" spread throughout the ninja world, which greatly helped his mission.

Leaving aside the development of traditional Chinese martial arts, Yi Shuihan has made some new moves.

"Have you heard? If you spend ten times at the Myriad Realms Hot Spring Resort, you can receive one instruction on traditional Chinese martial arts from the resort owner."

“I already knew that. I’ve already sent my son to soak in it. It costs 10 taels of silver per soak. Although it’s expensive, it’s definitely worth it if we can get guidance from the hot spring owner.”

"Yes, martial arts originated from the hot spring owner. It is said that the hot spring owner's mastery of martial arts is unfathomable, and one instruction from him is comparable to several months of martial arts training."

The power of Chinese martial arts is beyond people's imagination. Even if they haven't reached the level of Ming Jin, it still plays a significant role for these children studying at the ninja academy.

After several months of training, some people gained tens of kilograms of strength, while others gained hundreds or even thousands of kilograms. At that point, everyone's enthusiasm for Chinese martial arts exploded.

Which parent doesn't want their child to succeed? Therefore, in order to get their child a lesson from Yi Shuihan, they would sell everything they own to spend money at the Wanjie Hot Spring Resort.

This was just the beginning. After discovering the special features of the hot spring resort, their enthusiasm grew even stronger. Originally, Yi Shuihan's hot spring resort only had a dozen or so visitors a day, but now the area outside is packed with people.

Well, because there's a limit on the number of slots, the line stretches out of the village every day, and some people even come several days in advance but still can't get a spot.

It has to be said that there are so many handsome men and beautiful women in the world of anime; there are so many who meet the requirements.

Fortunately, Yi Shuihan's checks were quite strict; otherwise, scalpers might have reappeared in this ninja world.

"Boss? Shouldn't we hire more people to maintain order? I really can't handle it alone!" Matt Dai, having finally finished his work, walked up to Yi Shuihan and said with a wry smile.

"Maintaining public order? It is indeed necessary!"

Seeing Matt Dai working up a sweat, Yi Shuihan also felt that he needed to recruit some people.

Although he was the one who caused this situation, he hadn't expected it to become so popular.

Before Yi Shuihan could say anything, the closed door suddenly burst open, and a group of people rushed in.

Yi Shuihan frowned. "Let's go see what happened."

"We want to see the boss, please come out quickly."

"come out faster."

"How can there be so few slots per day? I've been queuing all day and I still haven't gotten a turn."

"Exactly, how do you do business? You have money to be made but you don't make any. We strongly demand that the number of slots be increased every day."

People in the crowd kept offering their opinions.

"Quiet!"

Matt Kai stepped out and shouted, but his voice was quickly drowned out.

Matt Kai was also somewhat flustered upon seeing this. After all, they were all villagers, and he couldn't very well resort to violence to suppress them!

Yi Shuihan, who was standing to the side, stepped forward and said softly, "Quiet!"
