Alchemy Kekkei Genkai

(The Alchemy Bloodline Limit was inspired by Fullmetal Alchemist.)

"Gladly, Lord Orochimaru." Yueguang Han spoke respectfully, though his voice remained cold. The synthesized electronic voice was hoarse, devoid of any emotional fluctuation.

As for his Tech Template, Yueguang Han had anticipated this situation the moment he decided to follow Minato Namikaze back to Konoha’s camp. He had already prepared his response and explanation, including this most predictable scenario.

"Then I’ll be watching with interest!" Orochimaru said with a smile. He simply watched Yueguang Han, clearly wanting him to demonstrate it right here.

"Lord Orochimaru, I named my Kekkei Genkai Alchemy." Seeing this, Yueguang Han understood Orochimaru’s intent and hurriedly explained. He raised his right hand toward the wooden wall beside them and transformed his arm into a shotgun.

The instant Wang Han’s hand turned into a shotgun, Orochimaru’s pupils contracted sharply. When Yueguang Han’s hand had transformed into that strange weapon just now, even he had failed to see the process. Who was he? He was Orochimaru, the Third Hokage’s most prized disciple and one of the Legendary Sannin! Yet he had not caught even the slightest trace of the transformation.

Beside him, Minato Namikaze was equally astonished. With his neural reaction speed and dynamic vision, he too had failed to see any part of the transformation. It was as though Yueguang Han’s hand had changed in an instant, or as though his right hand had always been like this.

Yet their memories clearly told them that their eyes simply had not been able to capture the process of Yueguang Han’s right hand changing. That speed alone was enough to prove that this Bloodline Limit was incredibly powerful. If it was weak, then the person possessing it had to be worthless.

"Alchemy Bloodline Limit… it truly is a powerful Bloodline Limit. Lord Han, hurry and show us what it can do!" Orochimaru said eagerly, unable to stop himself from licking the corner of his lips. His interest in this brand-new Bloodline Limit was growing by the moment.

"Yes." Yueguang Han nodded and fired a shot at the wooden wall beside him.

"Bang!" The shotgun’s deep, booming report instantly exploded through the room, carrying beyond the command hut and far into the distance.

"Boom!" The wooden wall let out a groan like a smashed door. Splinters flew everywhere, leaving behind a bowl-sized crater. If this hut had not been built from tree trunks, the shot would likely have blasted a bowl-sized hole straight through it.

"Lord Orochimaru!" Hearing the unusual thunderous noise, several ninjas guarding outside rushed into the hut in the blink of an eye.

Disturbed, Orochimaru looked at the ninjas who had barged in, waved a hand, and ordered, "Nothing is wrong here. Go back outside and continue standing guard. Without my order, no one is allowed to enter."

"The power is immense, and it requires no hand seals. The attack is also extremely fast. At close range, if someone is hit, then apart from a small number of ninjas, the rest would either die or be crippled. Even Jonin would find it difficult to evade such a swift strike unless they predicted your attack in advance and prepared beforehand. Otherwise, very few could block it. But at long range, although its attack area becomes wider, it also becomes more scattered, and it is difficult to control where the attack lands. Its lethality is greatly reduced that way. This is an attack suited only for close-quarters combat!" After carefully examining the crater in the wooden wall again, Orochimaru gave his assessment.

As expected of Orochimaru, one of the Legendary Sannin. Not only was he a genius, but he was also highly experienced. After seeing it once, he had analyzed most of the shotgun’s strengths and weaknesses.

Minato Namikaze stood to the side and nodded. His own assessment was the same.

"Regarding this brand-new Bloodline Limit, I’m sure Lord Han has developed other techniques as well! Otherwise, it would have been impossible for him to defeat more than a dozen elite Sand Shinobi, including Yakura!" Having seen the shotgun, Orochimaru’s gaze grew increasingly interested and expectant.

Yueguang Han did not waste words. He immediately transformed his right hand into an M24 Light Machine Gun and pulled the trigger at the wooden wall.

"Rat-tat-tat…" Crisp, continuous gunfire immediately echoed throughout the wooden hut and carried far outside. The surrounding ninjas all looked curiously toward the command post built from wood, but under Orochimaru’s orders, no one was allowed to enter.

"Pfft, pfft, pfft…" Inside the hut, splintered wood flew from the tree-trunk wall as it gave off repeated muffled impacts. Stone bullet casings fell continuously to the floor like beans being sifted.

Finger-thick round holes continuously appeared in the wall made of wooden stakes.

After firing more than thirty rounds, Yueguang Han stopped. This was only a demonstration, not a battle, so there was no need to waste Energy Points.

"Clap, clap, clap…"

"What an astonishing Bloodline Limit!" Looking at the densely packed holes in the wooden stakes, Orochimaru could not help applauding, his words filled with praise.

Yueguang Han’s Bloodline Limit truly amazed him. The second attack was more concentrated than the first and far more lethal at medium and long range. Its rate of fire and speed were also much greater. Even against Jonin, it held an overwhelmingly suppressive advantage at medium and long range. No wonder Yueguang Han, merely a Genin, had been able to kill so many Sand Shinobi despite the difference in rank.

But this still was not enough. The Sand Shinobi had not been fighting alone. They were enemies who could counterattack and defend themselves, and they would surely seek out Yueguang Han’s weaknesses and arrange suitable tactics against him. Yueguang Han definitely had even more astonishing techniques, techniques that allowed him to confront those Sand Shinobi head-on.

"Lord Han must have even more praiseworthy techniques, right?" Orochimaru said with a smile, anticipation appearing in his eyes.

"…"

Yueguang Han fell silent. Having gone through battle after battle, he knew his own shortcomings. With only a shotgun and light machine gun, it would have been impossible for him to kill so many Sand Shinobi without suffering a scratch. The question was whether he should reveal the Barrett or expose the abnormality of his body. Both were currently his trump cards.

Watching Yueguang Han’s silence, Orochimaru had already guessed what he was hesitating over. The anticipation in his eyes immediately deepened, and he even began wondering what kind of trump card could have allowed Yueguang Han to achieve such results.

After hesitating for a moment, Yueguang Han made his decision. He immediately took out a Kunai and slashed it toward his own forearm.

"Lord Han, what are you doing?" Seeing Yueguang Han about to harm himself, Minato Namikaze moved to stop him.

"Minato, Lord Han is demonstrating it for us." Orochimaru said with a smile, stopping Minato as he watched Yueguang Han expectantly.
