Chapter 48 Mikoto: My body! I can't move!

"The Four Symbols Seal is very difficult to practice, let alone perfect it." Minato shook his head slightly. During the time since he returned to Konoha, in addition to practicing physical skills, he had been studying the Four Symbols Seal. But it has been a while, and his proficiency in the Four Symbols Seal is still only at the level where he can use it. Not to mention studying it thoroughly, even using it consumes a lot of his mind.

This is with the assistance of Kushina. If he were to perform it independently, it would probably be a problem for him to even successfully launch it.

"I see..." Zhang Shan nodded: "Your current problem is still that you don't have enough chakra, right? Once my new research results come out, you can make up for this shortcoming."

Minato was overjoyed when he heard this, but he suddenly thought of something and asked in a low voice, "Zhang Shan, are you serious?"

You know, chakra is a ninja's Achilles' heel. No matter how amazing your talent in ninjutsu is, if you don't have enough chakra, you won't be able to see higher mountains. It's just like the spiritual roots in the world of cultivating immortals, inferior spiritual roots can't compare to others' superior spiritual roots.

So, when Zhang Shan said that he could solve the problem of insufficient chakra, the clever Minato immediately realized the seriousness of the matter!
"Well, when have I ever lied to you?" Zhang Shan said with a smile, "After this experiment is completed, I guarantee that you will have the same chakra level as Nawaki, and you won't have to worry about not having enough chakra anymore!"

Minato happily went to study the Four Symbols Seal. Since Zhang Shan said that he would definitely be able to possess the chakra level of Rope Tree in the future, he could change the direction of his research on the Four Symbols Seal.

After all, according to his previous estimates, even if he became an adult, his chakra amount would only be half of what Rope Tree has now, or maybe even less.

"Then I'll be waiting for your good news!" Minato smiled happily.

Kushina on the side curled her lips and thought: Can chakra really be used up?
After leaving Mito's house and walking on the road for a while, Zhang Shan met Tsunade again.

At this time, Tsunade's cheeks were flushed, she reeked of alcohol, and she even walked unsteadily.

"Hmm? Zhang Shan? Long time no see!!!"

Seeing an acquaintance, Tsunade took two steps forward, put one hand on Zhang Shan's shoulder, and pressed her whole body against Zhang Shan.

To be honest, facing such a big blonde sister, if Zhang Shan said that he was not moved at all, it would be a lie. He is not Liu Xiahui, how could he remain calm.

However, Tsunade seemed to always treat him as a child, even... silently enduring the softness on his arm, Zhang Shan awkwardly said: "Sister Tsunade, I will take you home..."

As he said that, Zhang Shan pulled out his arm and helped Tsunade walk towards Mito's house.

He didn't know where Tsunade lived now, but it would be the same if he sent her to Mito. He would go back after Tsunade sobered up.

"Go home? Okay, let's go home." Tsunade was dazed and was supported by Zhang Shan back to Mito's house. Looking at the old lady's angry expression, Zhang Shan silently closed the sliding door.

"Good luck to you, Lady Tsunade~" Zhang Shan smiled secretly.

When he left, he went to look at the rope tree. That guy still didn't get it, so Zhang Shan could only sigh in his heart.

However, he really doesn't plan to stay here any longer.

This time he came out for something important!

"Hey hey hey! You're not allowed to set up stalls here! Take your things and leave as soon as possible!"

"This...but I saw someone here yesterday..."

"Yesterday was yesterday, old man! If you dare to talk nonsense again, I will take your things now!"

"No, no, no! I'm leaving! I'm leaving now!" On the main road of Konoha, three members of the guard team cursed at an old man who was pushing a cart filled with all kinds of strange masks.

The old man quickly put on a smile, covered the mask with a gray cloth, pushed his car and left.

Seeing this, the man wearing the Uchiha clan emblem spat on the ground and said disdainfully: "You don't know the rules at all, and you dare to take up space in this prime location!"

Behind him, Uchiha Mikoto had a blank expression on her face. She was no longer surprised by such things.

He once tried to change, but was eventually scolded by the elders in his family, who said that he did not consider the interests of the family.

After driving the old man away, the other two took the money from the other person as if they were familiar with the situation, and left in a swagger amid the other person's flattering smile.

Mikoto followed the two men, saying they were on patrol together, but Mikoto was more like a slacker, just coming here for the formality and to earn the salary.

After a busy day, Mikoto changed out of her work clothes, put on her own clothes, and walked slowly home.

"How about curry today? Go buy some ingredients."

Mikoto turned around and headed towards Konoha's vegetable market.

Although they have everything in the Uchiha clan's territory, Mikoto is upset about recent events and doesn't want to buy anything in the clan's territory.

After happily buying all the ingredients, Mikoto was walking on the way home. Suddenly, she felt a pain in the back of her head, and her consciousness became blurry in an instant!

However, her excellent ninja qualities prevented her from fainting immediately, but Mikoto did not act rashly. She secretly used chakra to control her heart rate, making herself look like she was fainting.

As soon as the opponent gets close to her, she will counterattack instantly!

In the dark, Zhang Shan saw Mikoto lying on the ground, but she was not in a hurry to show up.

Ninjas have many more tricks than Corpse Brother, so he'd better be careful.

After waiting quietly for two seconds, and using his super-developed hearing to confirm that the other person's heartbeat had become somewhat faint, Zhang Shan clasped his hands together again, and several black runes moved from the ground to Mikoto's body, making her unable to move.

"Oh no!" Misaka was suddenly very anxious and wanted to mobilize her chakra to break the seal on her body, but she found that she couldn't even control her chakra?
No! To be more precise, it seems that I can't even lift my eyelids except for thinking!

"What's going on? It's been so quiet since just now!
Hiss~ What stung me?! Why did I lose my senses? What on earth happened?! "

As Mikoto was in a state of panic, Zhang Shan silently put away the three full syringes, shook them a few times to make sure the blood would not coagulate, and then merged his body with the shadows in the dark.

The moment he disappeared, Mikoto on the ground suddenly jumped up and looked around with horror on her face!

He pressed one hand on the place where he had just felt pain, but found that it was still as smooth as jade, and there was no trace of pain on the delicate skin. He looked around and found that there was no one here except himself, and there was indeed no sound around, as if everything he had just experienced was just an illusion.

"How could it be an illusion?"

The scarlet double magatama Sharingan flashed in her delicate eyes. She swore by the glory of her Uchiha clan! She was definitely not under an illusion!
