Chapter 142 Increased Affinity to Natural Energy

Chapter 142 Increased Affinity to Natural Energy

"Go check on Fujijuro's side. Hopefully, his team can stop Tsunade."

Ebizo sighed.

Since the Second Shinobi World War, Tsunade has rarely been active on the front lines.

Even in the field of medical ninjas, Tsunade is no longer as enthusiastic as before.

However, it is foreseeable that the three legendary Sannin from the Second Shinobi World War were still young, and now that many years have passed, their strength will definitely have increased.

"We have no choice but to go there now."

Chiyo frowned and nodded.

If the news of the Third Kazekage's disappearance cannot be contained, then it can only be said that it was fate.

"Any news about Scorpion?"

Ebizo looked at Chiyo, who was wearing a headscarf.

Chiyo was over fifty years old. Her son and daughter-in-law had both died young, leaving her with only one beloved grandson.

He would fulfill any request Sasori made on a daily basis, and even taught him the highly secretive puppetry techniques that required merit without reservation.

These were all matters concerning his older sister's family, and Ebizo didn't say much about them.

In his youth, he was mainly responsible for intelligence and espionage work. He was very good at judging people and could sense that Scorpion had already shown signs of something being wrong after losing his parents.

Sasori chose to leave the village at the critical moment when the Third Kazekage disappeared. Considering the reaction of the ninjas in Konoha, the outcome was already quite clear.

Scorpion has likely already betrayed... the village.

"After this incident, I will no longer concern myself with matters of Sunagakure."

Chiyo spoke after a long pause.

This is her taking responsibility for the scorpion incident.

If Sasori really did something to the Third Kazekage using the poisoning techniques and puppetry she taught him, she would resign from her current position.

"..."

A trace of sorrow flashed in Ebizo's cloudy eyes as he turned and caught up with the group that had gone to find Ebizo and join forces.

Chiyo looked at the top of the hill, where two deep pits remained, formed by Kiyoshi's leap.

The ever-present wind continues to blow, stirring up sand and dust that completely obscures these traces.

……

"The chakra is being consumed much faster than I expected."

Kiyoshi secretly said.

At this moment, he was high in the sky, and the Sand Village ninjas chasing him below were as small as ants.

The power of ninjutsu decreases with physical distance, and these wind-style ninjutsu are no different from a gentle breeze at a great distance.

Kiyoshi carefully manipulated the vortex around his body, trying to keep the difference between chakra consumption and physical strength as small as possible.

"You have mastered the entry: 【Bird (Green)】."

[Entry: Bird (Green)]

[Requirement met: Stay at an altitude of 300 meters or more for at least five minutes.]

Progress: (Completed)

[Effect: You detach from the earth and aspire to soar through the air. The "natural energy" circulating in the atmosphere rapidly flows through your body, increasing your affinity for "natural energy" by 20%.]

[Note: Further advanced levels are available.]

"Natural energy?"

Kiyoshi's heart skipped a beat, and the stable, streamlined whirlwind began to tremble.

He quickly stabilized the intensity of his chakra output and continued to control it precisely.

Qing Si never expected to receive an entry that increases natural energy.

Calling his action "flying" is a bit of a stretch.

Calling it gliding is actually a more accurate description.

However, with the presence of "Wind" Release chakra, Kiyoshi was able to slow down his descent and smoothly traverse a long distance.

Sasuke's daughter's three-tomoe Sharingan can see the "virus" in the air directly. Although Kiyoshi has a two-tomoe Sharingan, it is no different from a three-tomoe Sharingan.

Therefore, the Sharingan's perception can also detect the rising air currents, allowing Kiyoshi to continuously leverage them.

With the help of these, it is possible to accomplish what others consider a far-fetched operation.

"There have always been only three paths to mastering Sage Mode, but Orochimaru later created a shortcut called the 'Cursed Seal.'"

Kiyoshi analyzed calmly.

A 20% increase in affinity with natural energy will definitely make it much easier for him to learn "Sage Mode".

Sage Mode is useful even in the later stages of the game. To keep up with the version, you can only use physical or magical attacks.

No matter what kind of ninjutsu it is, as long as it is mixed with Sage Chakra, its power will increase several times.

With Kiyoshi's current strength, he wouldn't be easily killed even if war broke out.

Then we need to consider the future.

Besides the Nine-Tailed Fox's rampage and the night of the clan's annihilation, an even greater crisis looms before Kiyoshi.

That was the Otsutsuki invasion.

Kaguya was so terrified that she kept drawing natural energy from the earth from the Divine Tree and creating White Zetsu because she feared the people from beyond the heavens.

When the Otsutsuki invaded a planet, they had to work in pairs. The main reason was to have one of them act as a living sacrifice. The guardian would feed the Ten-Tails' larvae as a living sacrifice, while the one being protected would be responsible for guarding the sacred tree until it blossomed and bore fruit.

Unfortunately, Kaguya is the guardian, and Isshiki is the one being protected.

Kaguya, not wanting to be eaten by the Ten-Tails, chose to ambush Isshiki Otsutsuki.

However, a sneak attack is not a long-term solution.

After the Otsutsuki clan discovers this, they will deal with Kaguya, the traitor, recapture the tailed beasts, synthesize the Ten-Tails, plant the God Tree, and drain the planet's chakra and natural energy.

Kiyoshi could not avoid these alien Otsutsuki.

It's hard to say whether Boruto will be born after his existence.

At that time, only the tallest person can take their place.

"I need to continue trying to contact Orochimaru."

Qing Si suppressed all his distracting thoughts.

With his character profile and bloodline limit, he might not be weaker than these Otsutsuki through continuous effort.

Sooner or later, he will be able to turn Kaguya Otsutsuki into a tool to enhance his eye power!

"The direction is...that way."

After taking out a compass to determine the direction, Kiyoshi quickly glided towards the border of the Land of Fire.

This is one of the essential items that ninjas must bring when entering the desert, as it helps them avoid getting lost.

From a distance, he looked as if he were really flying.

This speed is much faster than Kiyoshi traveling on foot.

……

Several days later.

Border of the Land of Fire.

The ninjas responsible for guarding the area noticed a strange sandstorm rising in the distance.

"Hyuga Nobuhiko, it's up to you now."

A Konoha scout ninja said to Hyuga Nobuhiko.

The Hyuga clan, who possess the Byakugan, do not need to learn any sensory or reconnaissance ninjutsu; they only need to hone their innate abilities.

The Byakugan has the ability to freely choose between "penetrating vision" and "seeing far away".

"it is good."

Nobuhiko Hyuga had bulging veins around his eyes, and he used his Byakugan ability to see what was happening two kilometers away.

"It's Lady Tsunade! She's fighting against the Sand Village ninja!"

The sight before him startled Hyuga Nobuhiko.

Is Sunagakure about to wage war against Konoha?

That's Tsunade, one of the Legendary Sannin!

Moreover, he is a giant in the medical field in Konoha, an absolutely rare talent.

If something were to happen to Tsunade, the village wouldn't just sit idly by.

"Let's go provide support!"

The information revealed by Hyuga Nobuhiko left everyone looking at each other in bewilderment, and they immediately chose to enter the border of the Land of Wind to provide support.
