Chapter 7 - Blood Manipulation: Flowing Red Scale

Seven days later, Shinji, who had just left the isolation room today, was enjoying his lunch.

Today's menu was chicken curry. The taste was quite good, especially the generous portion, and there was plenty of meat too, so he ate happily.

Honestly, during his stay at the Jashin Cult since transmigrating, the situation was actually quite harmonious and productive.

Every day training diligently, blood extraction, cooperating to record experimental data... Once he got used to all this, it actually felt quite good.

At least, he lived many times better than war orphans and refugees struggling on the death line at any moment.

At least his life was guaranteed, and he didn't need to worry about food and clothing.

He even had the thought that if he could continue living like this, it would feel quite nice too.

After all, as long as he didn't look for too much trouble, he could continue hiding like this for a very long time.

Even if one day aliens really came to attack the Ninja World, there would still be 'Naruto' and 'Sasuke' at the front lines to face them.

However it went, his turn definitely wouldn't come!

However, after recalling information about the Jashin Cult, he could only sigh a little, feeling that this thinking of his might be somewhat unrealistic.

Although he didn't know when, the final outcome of the Jashin Cult would definitely be annihilation.

Because he vaguely remembered that there was an episode in Naruto where some idiot from somewhere got a little inheritance from the Jashin Cult, then fantasized about obtaining immortality.

At that time, the Jashin Cult had long disappeared.

Shinji wasn't quite clear about how the Jashin Cult was destroyed, because that memory was too long ago. He only vaguely remembered seeing on the internet that everyone in the Jashin Cult was sacrificed by Hidan to Jashin.

That indeed seemed like something Hidan might do. If that day really came, Shinji would definitely help.

At that time, he would be free like a fish jumping in the vast ocean and a bird flying in the high sky, equally joyful.

If Takihata knew about this bastard's current thoughts, he might directly choose to tear him to shreds!

Painstakingly developing two immortal people, but it turned out both were traitors. Wasn't this too excessive?

*THUD!*

A loud sound was heard.

Shinji, who was eating curry while sighing, suddenly looked up.

Hidan had just kicked a chair over, now staring at him full of anger!

Clearly, the experience of therapy, recovery, and detention over the past few days made him very annoyed and angry!

Because of that ridiculous 'synchronized' competition, Takihata imprisoned them both separately. During that time, they received no less than ten mental guidance sessions, because Takihata was afraid they would cause bigger problems later.

Also to make both of them recover, after all immortality didn't mean they couldn't be injured. Their situation at that time was really hard to explain.

Unfortunately, if he didn't cause trouble, that wouldn't be the straight-thinking Hidan.

Sure enough, as soon as he was released, he immediately sought information and couldn't wait to look for trouble with Shinji.

"Yo, eaten yet? Want to sit and eat together?"

Shinji greeted while speeding up his movements, so he wouldn't be hungry after the fight started later.

His teacher had long taught him not to waste food!

"Shinji you bastard! Die!!!"

Hidan pulled out his long black spear, gritted his teeth, and charged.

Even if he had to be detained again, he didn't care!

That was really because his last defeat felt very humiliating!

Although he said that, once he started fighting, Hidan's expression suddenly changed!

Logically, their strength should be balanced, at least in every duel before detention, neither could defeat the other.

However, this time the situation was truly different!

Hidan's chain attacks with his long black spear were all easily dodged by Shinji. His opponent even had leisure time, taking advantage of attack gaps to quickly bow down and scoop the remaining curry rice on the plate into his mouth.

Shinji truly took Hidan's attacks lightly!

"Damn it!"

Hidan bit his teeth hard, and once again increased his attack speed.

Right at this moment, Shinji, who had only been dodging all this time, finally raised his head.

Only then did Hidan realize that on Shinji's forehead, at some point there was already a red 'X'-shaped 'scar', as if colored by blood.

Blood Manipulation: Flowing Red Scale!

*BAM!*

*BANG!*

After putting down the plate, with just one punch, the careless Hidan was directly thrown backward, embedded in the wall, then uncontrollably coughed up a large mouthful of blood. Even the long black spear in his hand directly came loose and fell to the floor.

(How is this possible?!)

Hidan's eyes, supporting himself with his hands on the floor, showed an expression of disbelief. He seemed not to understand why his opponent's strength could increase so quickly in just a few days?

Could it be the Sect Leader secretly gave him secret training when he wasn't around?

As if seeing Hidan's confusion, Shinji said calmly, "My Blood Manipulation can even freely control blood composition, including body temperature, pulse, and red blood cell count."

"Just now, I only accelerated blood flow, to strengthen my physical strength. This increases my speed and power."

"In this condition, you can't even touch the edge of my clothes."

Hidan, who slid down from the wall, didn't believe that in just a few days, the gap between them could widen this far. So, he gritted his teeth, quickly grabbed the long black spear that fell on the ground, and once again attacked Shinji without a word.

Shinji shook his head seeing that. If it were him several days ago, he indeed would be involved in a difficult fight.

But after experiencing severe bleeding to the point of near death, and then calmly contemplating for several days, he coincidentally found a way to strengthen himself.

Namely, as he said, accelerating blood flow to strengthen physical strength, increasing speed and power.

The principle might be somewhat similar to Luffy's Gear Second, but there were differences.

The consequence was great damage to himself. Frequent use could even reduce life span.

So, it could be said Hidan chose the wrong time to look for trouble with him!

Feeling his own strength in the Blood Manipulation: Flowing Red Scale condition, Shinji decided to give Hidan an unforgettable memory.

He tilted his head lightly, avoiding the long black spear that stabbed quickly, then threw his right fist covertly but lightning fast, hitting right in Hidan's stomach.

*BAM!*

Instantly, Hidan felt tremendous pain, his eyes bulged, and he bent over while howling.

And then, Shinji's knee rapidly enlarged before his eyes...
