ASFUCITWON Chapter 162: Shipbuilding

In previous experiments, there was a possibility that the ship would continue to float endlessly, and could even rise to dangerous heights if not controlled.

To prevent this, Reiji had set the seal so that the ship would only float about a meter off the ground by default.

However, by activating the Propulsion Fuinjutsu, the ship could rise higher or descend slowly.

Reiji tested this by increasing the Chakra intensity in the seal, and as Reiji had hoped, the ship began to float higher with fairly good control.

Reiji finally breathed a sigh of relief. Although there were still many challenges to overcome, at least this project was starting to show real results.

The next step was to perfect the navigation system, add a directional control system, and increase the efficiency of the seal so that the ship could be used in any conditions.

This grand mission was far from over.

However, Reiji knew one thing—he was getting closer to realizing his dream of creating the first flying ship in the history of Fuinjutsu.

...

...

...

Time passed so quickly.

Two months have passed since the small boat first managed to fly stably.

Two months of hard work, trial and error.

However, now the results are starting to show.

Instead of buying a finished ship and adding Fuinjutsu to it, Reiji chose to build a ship from scratch.

A decision that many would consider troublesome, but for Reiji, this was the only way to get a ship that truly suited Reiji's needs.

This ship was not just a means of transportation, but a weapon, a mobile headquarters, a fortress that could take the Uzumaki Clan to a higher level.

If Reiji had simply bought a finished ship, then Reiji would have had to accept the limitations of the original design.

But by building the ship himself, every part could be customized, every wood carving, every nail, every layer of armor could be placed with careful consideration.

Building this ship was not easy.

The best wood had to be chosen, not just any wood that would rot in a few years.

Reiji searched for wood that was strong, light, and resistant to extreme weather, even looking for ways to strengthen the wood with Fuinjutsu.

Every piece of wood that was cut had to be treated with care, ensuring that the ship's durability was not compromised.

Then, there was the metal that needed to be forged—the ship's frame, the cannon shields, the door hinges, and various other mechanical parts.

This was not something that just anyone could do.

Zuto.

The name immediately came to mind when Reiji realized that he needed someone with great skill in forging metal.

Zuto was the best blacksmith the Uzumaki Clan had.

Zuto's hammer blows could shape metal with precision, making it seem as if it had a soul.

If anyone could make the components of this ship perfectly, it was Zuto.

And Reiji did not hesitate to ask Zuto for help.

This ship was different from the small boats before.

No more manual control with bare hands, no more worrying about losing balance when turning.

Instead, the ship had a specially designed rudder, allowing for more precise direction control.

Every movement of the rudder was connected to a system designed through a combination of mechanisms and Fuinjutsu, ensuring the ship could turn smoothly without losing stability in the air.

However, the most interesting thing about this ship was not just the rudder, but the specially designed altitude control system.

Beside the rudder, there was a lever.

Simple in design, but with a very important function.

Reiji spent weeks perfecting his idea, thinking about how best to control the altitude without burdening the user with an overly complicated system.

This lever would work with the Weight Reduction Fuinjutsu.

With the right mechanism, one could easily adjust the weight of the ship simply by moving the lever.
