Chapter 57: Mikazuki Munechika

In the woods beside the memorial tablet of Konoha, two figures, one large and one small, occasionally appeared under the reflection of fireworks in the sky.

"Well! You have indeed grown a lot." Kusa Chi Nai rubbed Liu Yu's head gently as before, and said with pity but also with satisfaction.

After a pause, Kusa Chi Nai continued: "This time I came to Konoha, in addition to wanting to see the specific situation of the children of the Kusa Chi clan in Konoha, another thing is to give this to you." As she said, Kusa Chi Nai took off the long sword at her waist and handed it to Liu Yu.

"What is this?" Liu Yu asked curiously.

In fact, when she saw Kusa Chi Nai just now, she found the long sword that Kusa Chi Nai had on her waist. She knew the other short sword on Kusa Chi Nai's waist. That short sword was Kusa Chi Nai's common weapon, called 'Thousand Blades', which was also made of special metal that could carry chakra. When Kusa Chi Nai was teaching herself, she often played with 'Thousand Blades'. When I first saw the long sword on Kusachinako's waist, I thought it was a new weapon she had recently found, but I didn't expect that this long sword was actually given to me!

"Open it and take a look!" Kusachinako didn't answer, but just handed the long sword in her hand to Liuyu to open it.

"Yes!" Liuyu replied softly, and then took the long sword.

Clang~~

With a flash of cold light, the long sword in the sheath was pulled out by Liuyu. The bright blade reflected Liuyu's face, and Liuyu placed the sword horizontally in front of him, and looked at the long sword carefully.

The blade is 2 feet 6 inches and 4 points (about 0 cm) long, and the curvature is 9 points (about 7 cm). At the same time, there are many crescent-shaped (three-moon-shaped) blade patterns on the blade.

Clang~~~

Liuyu tried to wave the long sword in his hand, and the sound was unexpectedly crisp.

Liuyu then tried to infuse chakra into the long sword in his hand, and then the blade was reflected with a blue fluorescent color. This sword is actually made of a special metal that can carry chakra. Have I been lucky recently? This weapon made of special metal that can carry chakra has appeared in front of me one after another.

The knife in his hand gave him a strange feeling, as if he was connected with his mind. Waving the long sword in his hand, Liu Yu couldn't help showing a trace of joy.

"This knife is named 'Three Moons' because of the many crescent-shaped (three-moon-shaped) blade patterns on the blade, and it is also called 'Three Moons' because of its maker Sanjo Munechika."

Seeing Liu Yu's smile, Kusanako explained to Liu Yu on the side.

"Three Moons?" Liu Yu nodded, it was indeed a good name. Then Liu Yu thought of the Konoha-style swordsmanship · Three Moons Dance used by Moonlight Gale, both of which have 'Three Moons' in their names.

Konoha-style swordsmanship · Three Moons Dance, this rumor is the secret of the secret of Konoha-style swordsmanship created by the second generation of Hokage, and it is even a fatal trick that can kill the enemy with one blow. Unfortunately, the Moonlight Gale, who used this move of 'the secret of the secret of the Konoha style swordsmanship', was blocked and killed by Maki of Sand Village.

"Sister Naizi, where did you get this sword?" Liu Yu asked, looking at the long sword in her hand.

Liu Yu could see that 'Mikazuki Munechika' was not an ordinary weapon. This kind of weapon made of special metal that can carry chakra is not something that ordinary people can use. This time, Kusa Chinako suddenly found herself and said that she wanted to give this sword to herself. Liu Yu couldn't help but be curious about this sword. Where did Kusa Chinako get it from? Looking at the ancient scabbard, you can also know that this sword has a certain age.

"This sword is a treasure passed down from generation to generation by the Kusa Chi clan. In a sense, it can also be said to be a token of the Kusa Chi clan leader."

"The token of the clan leader? Then why haven't I seen my father use it?" Kusa Chinako's explanation made Liu Yu even more confused. Her father Kusa Chiyu is the clan leader of the Kusa Chi clan, and she has never seen him use this sword!

"That's because the previous owner of this knife was not your father, but your mother." Kusa Chi Nako continued to explain.

"Mother?" Liu Yu muttered this word that might be a little unfamiliar to him. Whether in the past life or this life, Liu Yu has never experienced maternal love. The memory of his mother only exists in the yellowed photo.

"This knife was once the weapon of Kusa Chi Arashi, the ancestor of the Kusa Chi clan. After her, this knife became the symbol of the patriarch of the Kusa Chi clan. But this knife was unfortunately lost in a melee during the Warring States Period, along with the patriarch of the Kusa Chi clan at that time."

"Such an important thing was lost?" Liu Yu was speechless.

"After that, the patriarchs of the Kusa Chi clan tried to find this knife, but they never found it. Until your mother's generation." At this point, Kusa Chi Nako paused, as if she was missing something.

"My mother? What happened to my mother? Did my mother find this knife?" Looking at Kusa Chi Nako's appearance, Liu Yu seemed even more curious.

"Well! This knife was indeed found by your mother, or more accurately, summoned back." Kusa Chi Nako's words made Liu Yu even more confused.

"Why do you think you came here today? And why am I waiting for you here?" Seeing Liu Yu's puzzled face, Kusa Chi Nako asked back.

"This?? This??"

Hearing Kusa Chi Nako's question, Liu Yu was stunned for a moment. He seemed too excited when he met Kusa Chi Nako before, and forgot about this.

I came here by myself, and I could say that I suddenly wanted to come here to take a look, but why did Sister Naizi wait for me here in advance? Why was she so sure that I would come here?

"Because of it!"

Looking at Liu Yu's face full of doubts, Kusa Chi Nako did not keep it a secret for too long, but looked at the long sword in Liu Yu's hand and continued.

"It?" Liu Yu looked at the three-day moon in his hand, and was even more confused.

"Lord Yuna didn't go anywhere to find the 'three-day moon', but summoned it directly in the family by performing bamboo escape. Therefore, Lord Yuna didn't know where the three-day moon was before."

"Summon?" Liu Yu stared at the long sword in his hand again. This sword was actually summoned.

"You should be able to feel the strangeness of this sword! This is the special connection between the family's bamboo escape awakener and this sword. The reason why you came to the memorial is because this sword is calling you in the dark." Kusa Chi Nako's words made Liu Yu understand a little bit.

"The power of space?" Liu Yu thought. This sword has a special connection with the awakened Bamboo Style of the Kusa Sen clan, so no matter where they are, the awakened Bamboo Style of the Kusa Sen clan can summon the ‘Mikazuki’ through the connection of blood.

This is a bit similar to the non-blood contract summoning in the summoning technique, which can summon objects stored elsewhere to assist in the battle, such as Tenten’s summoning scroll and Orochimaru’s summoning technique Impure World Reincarnation. However, the three-day moon is directly connected to the awakened Bamboo Style of the Kusa Sen clan.

“After Lord Yuna recalled the ‘Mikazuki’, after the clan test, it was found that this sword can only play the greatest effect in the hands of the awakened Bamboo Style, so this sword was given to Lord Yuna for use, not the clan leader Kusa Chiyu.” Kusa Chinako continued.

“After Lord Yuna left, this sword was sealed by the clan leader. After learning that you awakened the Bamboo Style, Lord Kusa Chiyu entrusted this sword to me and asked me to give it to you at the right time.”

After that, Kusa Chinako took the sword from Ryuu. Then, with a force, he threw the crescent moon far away.

Clang! ! !

The crescent moon went straight through a tree. Because of the impact of the crescent moon, the tree couldn't stop shaking. Because of the shaking of the tree, leaves fell one by one.

"Next, try to see if you can call back the 'Crimson Moon'." After throwing the crescent moon, Kusa Chinako turned and said to Liu Yu.

Liu Yu looked at the 'Crimson Moon' inserted into the tree in the distance, and recalled the strange feeling that the crescent moon brought to her.

Closing her eyes, Liu Yu's mind appeared the long sword covered with crescent-shaped blade patterns. In her mind, she stretched out her hand and tried to grab it. But there was an unknown transparent barrier blocking her hand. No matter how hard Liu Yu tried, her hand could not reach forward. It was so close, but she could not go any further.

"Space boundary?"

"Bamboo escape? This knife is connected to the awakened bamboo escape of the Kusanagi clan. In this case, let's give it a try!"

Ryuuyu then activated the power of bamboo escape in his hand, and with the use of the power of bamboo escape, his hand, which had been unable to move forward just now, slowly began to stretch forward.

Bang! ! !

As if some unknown barrier was broken, Liuyu's hand finally stretched forward without obstacles and grasped the knife that appeared in his mind.

He opened his eyes and looked at his hand that he had opened at some point, and the three-day moon was naturally grasped in his hand. When the knife in his mind was grasped, the three-day moon in reality was also grasped in Liuyu's hand.

The hollow in the trees in the distance showed that there was a knife here just now.

"Space barrier?" Recalling the strange feeling just now, Liuyu couldn't help but think. The strange feeling of breaking through the space barrier in a thought and summoning things from afar made Liuyu feel a little excited.

Is this also considered a space ninjutsu? Since the weapon can be summoned back to the user, can the person be brought to the weapon? Liu Yu couldn't help but start thinking about how to use this weapon.

"Sister Nai, I succeeded!" Looking at the successfully recalled Mikazuki in her hand, Liu Yu turned to Kusa Chinako excitedly.

"Yeah!" Seeing Liu Yu successfully recall Mikazuki, Kusa Chinako couldn't help but smile. This child really lived up to her father's expectations of her.

Bang! ! !

The last firework of the fireworks festival rose into the sky.

Watching the last firework fall in the distant sky, Kusa Chinako turned to Liu Yu: "It's time to say goodbye."

"Yeah!" Liu Yu lowered her head and whispered back. Although reluctant, Liu Yu knew the importance of it. It was impossible for Kusa Chinako to stay in Konoha.

After all, she couldn't keep it!
