In Konoha, Ashura Chakra is dropped at the beginning.

Chapter 100: The stone containing natural energy, the shortcut to the rapid development of the immortal body
"Fortunately we are not too late. This time it is our turn to help you."

Yagyu casually threw aside the corpse of the werewolf that was killed instantly by the grafting technique, smiled at Temari who was looking at him with a red face and infatuated eyes, then looked at Camilla and Rank who had turned into a bat and an ape, and quickly formed a seal with one hand.

"Wood Release...Thorn Killing Technique!"

Green vine-like branches broke out of the dry desert and tied up the shocked Rank like a python, quickly sucking away her physical and mental energy, also known as her vigor, making her lose her ability to fight instantly.

Perhaps because of her quick reflexes or because she had ultrasonic perception after entering bat form, Camilla flapped her wings and soared into the sky, avoiding being bound by the branches.

However, the branches seemed to be equipped with tracking functions, extending infinitely towards Camilla and binding her.

However, the extension speed of the branches is not as fast as that of Camilla, who can fly.

Seeing this scene, Yagyu once again formed a seal with one hand.

Other colors immediately appeared at the top of the extended branch, and it quickly turned into a figure of Yagyu with only the upper body, while the lower body seemed to be fused with the branch. This was actually the wooden clone.

As soon as the wooden clone appeared, he formed seals with his hands, spit out a water arrow from his mouth, and attacked Camilla.

tear it up-

The water arrow turned into a super-high-pressure straight water column, like the sharpest blade in the world, cutting Camilla in half, whose flexibility and speed were not as good as the straight water column.

The two pieces of the body fell to the ground covered with yellow sand.

In less than a minute, one of the three female knights under Hyde's command was captured by Yagyu, and two were killed.

"There is still one alive. She looks like a cadre-level person. You should be able to collect important information from her." Yagyu smiled at Temari.

Kankuro came over and said with a grateful look, "Thank you for your help, Yagyu."

He was not thanking Yagyu for his support, but for saving Temari.

If Yagyu hadn't intervened in time, he and Gaara might have lost their sister.

Hearing Kankuro's voice, Temari finally came back to her senses and quickly bowed and said, "Thank you for saving me, Yagyu-kun."

"Just call me Yagyu."

Liu Sheng smiled and said, "It's only courtesy that counts. Last time, it was all thanks to your help."

"I'm sorry, Temari..."

At this time, Gaara also came in front of the three people and said apologetically: "It's all my fault for being too careless just now."

"It's okay. For the sake of the country, you were right to capture them alive."

Temari shook her head, and returned to her heroic appearance, and smiled: "As long as we bring that woman back to the village, we can get the enemy's intelligence and then fight back with all our strength."

"Ah."

Gaara nodded, then bowed slightly to Yagyu and said, "Thank you for your support, Yagyu."

"You really have changed a lot, Gaara."

Yagyu smiled and said, "If nothing unexpected happens, you should be the fifth Kazekage of the Sand Village. I hope I can attend your succession ceremony then."

"Kazekage?"

Gaara was slightly stunned, and then the figure who had changed himself appeared in his mind again.

The other person seemed to be constantly shouting that he wanted to become Hokage.

Thinking of this, Gaara, who had already removed the Sand Armor, couldn't help but smile, and murmured, "Becoming the Wind Shadow seems to be a good goal."

Seeing Gaara, who was completely different from the murderous look he had a few months ago and had turned into a reliable big boy, Temari and Kankuro also smiled.

In the desert in the distance, three figures were flying towards us quickly. They were the eighth team.

After some polite exchanges, Team 8 and Gaara's three siblings headed towards the Sand Village with a prisoner and two corpses.

At the same time, Timsi also caught up with the target he was looking for when he sneaked into the Kingdom of Wind this time, the leader of a caravan that traveled around the world, an old man with a ferret standing on his shoulder.

Seeing Timothy, the old man, who had already known what had happened in the Wind Kingdom during this period and also knew the origins of these enemies, had an extremely complicated expression.

It was not that his identity was discovered by the enemy, but that the Timsi in front of him had features almost exactly the same as his when he was young. He was either a descendant of his family or a descendant of another branch.

So under Timothy's coercion, the old man agreed to take him to find the underground ruins.

The two men and the mink soon left the team.

Little did they know that in the ground beneath their feet, there was an imperceptible aura that was silently following them.

A few days later, the two left the Kingdom of Wind and entered a mountainous area that belonged to an unknown country.

After another two days of climbing over mountains and crossing rivers, the old man brought Timothy to a cliff.

Below the cliff is a misty area that looks like the ancient remains of the pyramid from Yagyu's previous life.

Upon seeing this ancient relic, Timothy immediately drew the knight's sword from his waist and was about to use the technology inside the sword to release a green signal light wave to contact the mobile fortress which was unknown how far away from him and tell Lord Hyde the good news.

At this moment, he and the old man's bodies suddenly became unable to move.

The vine-like branches had wrapped around their bodies without them noticing.

Instead of draining their energy, the branches glowed with blue chakra, transforming into black runes that spread throughout their bodies, taking away control of their bodies and sealing their consciousness.

In the blink of an eye, both of them fell unconscious while standing.

The ferret standing on the old man's shoulder immediately squeaked, trying to wake him up.

But the next second, its expression became dull.

I saw a figure emerging from the ground on the cliff as if riding an elevator.

It was not the wooden clone that had been following them all the way, but the real body of Yagyu who had exchanged positions with the wooden clone in the past few days.

Looking at the ruins below, a red light flashed in Yagyu's eyes.

Under the perspective of the red eye, the scenes inside the ruins and the mineral veins buried beneath the ruins all came into Ryousei's sight.

The next second, Liu Sheng's face suddenly changed, and he shouted in a rare voice: "What the hell is this?!"

Then, Yagyu turned around and put his hands on Timothy and the old man's heads, inputting Yintun Chakra into their brains, and quickly completed the hypnosis.

Then Liu Sheng asked Timothy: "What are you looking for here by holding this old man hostage?"

"A vein of G...Grel Stone."

Hearing this, Liu Sheng finally remembered the name of this stone that contained special energy, so he asked the old man again: "Do you know the Grayer Stone?"

"Know...know."

"What is the power of this stone?"

"These... these stones contain a huge amount of life energy. After our ancestors discovered them, they refined them with technology and named them Greyl. And... they used the Greyl Stone to build a vast empire, create wells that never dry up, create livestock that grow overnight, create crops that bear fruit continuously, and also conduct research on preventing aging, as well as ecological integration..."

After listening to the old man's story, Liu Sheng's face became more and more happy. He finally knew what the energy below was.

Natural energy!

Just like the earth chakra of the dragon veins, these stones are special minerals that absorb natural energy and then transform into "Yang Dun".

Even though he had never touched it, Yagyu felt that this energy was extremely familiar.

That is the same life energy as his own Yangtun Chakra, or to be more precise, Ashura Chakra.

In addition, there is a special kind of energy that ordinary people cannot absorb directly, otherwise abnormal changes will occur.

Although Yagyu has not yet learned the Sage Mode, he is 100% sure that this is natural energy.

At this moment, Yagyu finally understood why those female knights were able to transform into beasts.

It turned out that this ancient kingdom, after refining the ores, used technology to allow them to absorb the natural energy within the ores, just like how Orochimaru diluted the natural energy from Jūgo and transformed his sage form into cursed form.

"I found a treasure..."

Yagyu suddenly murmured, his body trembling slightly with excitement.

These minerals are poison to others.

Even if one has the technology to absorb the energy from these mineral veins, once the body cannot withstand this energy, it will collapse immediately.

But the energy of this mineral vein is the best tonic for Yagyu.

As long as he absorbs these energies, Yagyu's sage body will grow faster. Not only will his Yangtun Chakra become stronger, but his life energy will also become more vast.

When his life energy breaks through a limit, his sage body will have its own healing function, and he can absorb natural energy at will, entering a sage mode that is not related to the three holy places, and his endurance is so strong that it will last until his chakra is exhausted.

In the future, even if the consciousness dies, the body will still be alive, and the cells will be as aggressive as the energy in these mineral veins. Anyone who dares to transplant Yagyu's cells will either explode and die or greatly increase his strength.

Hashirama Senju has all these abilities.

But even for Hashirama Senju, it took him several decades to fully develop his sage body.

But now, Yagyu has found a shortcut to quickly achieve the immortal body.

This was a huge surprise for Yagyu, whose Shippuden would begin three years later.

Thinking of this, Yagyu immediately gave up his original idea.

Originally, Yagyu wanted Timsi to trigger the special spiritual formation in the ancient ruins, summon the time and space cave in the endless void, and then perform the multiple shadow clone technique to let the shadow clones jump into the time and space cave, feel the power of time and space, and see if he could find the secret to practicing the Flying Thunder God technique.

Now that the nature of the mineral vein has been discovered, Yagyu only wants to monopolize it.

So, Yagyu formed a seal with one hand, and two branches extended from his body, turning into two wooden clones.

One of the wooden clones picked up the old man's body and quickly fled with him and the snow ferret.

The other wooden clone used wood escape to tie Timsi up like a dumpling, then carried him away.

Yagyu did not kill the two men, but sealed one and monitored the other.

They are all descendants of that ancient kingdom, and their blood can trigger the cave of time and space.

After Yagyu has absorbed the energy from the mineral vein, if he has not yet mastered the Flying Thunder God Technique, the two of them can trigger the Cave of Time and Space.

With the wooden clone that can restore chakra on its own guarding and monitoring them, Yagyu felt very relieved.

"Wood Release: Multiple Wood Clone Technique."

Yagyu continued to make seals with one hand, creating a large number of wooden clones.

Then, these wooden clones sank into the ground together, used the Mayfly Technique to sneak into the ancient ruins, and used wood and earth escape techniques to protect the mineral veins layer by layer.

Even if someone found this ancient relic, they would not be able to enter.

Even if they destroyed the ancient ruins, their ninjutsu could not destroy the tree world wall below.

Moreover, Yagyu would have his wooden clones patrolling the mountains, and once he found someone approaching, he would use illusion or wood escape to control them.

If the enemy is too strong for Wood's clone to handle, then Yagyu will go out personally.

After leaving behind numerous safeguards, Yagyu used the Mayfly Technique to rush back to the Kingdom of Wind.

At the same time, Yagyu also gave instructions to the Wood clone who was responsible for monitoring the mobile fortress, asking them to create various accidents to help the Sand Ninja who was searching for Hyde's trace outside to find the location of the mobile fortress.

At the same time, start to wrap up this incident.

After several days of interrogation, the Sand Village already knew of Hyde's existence.

The battle of ninjas is the battle of intelligence.

After understanding the enemy's position and capabilities, the Sand Village let Hyde and his army experience the power of ninja.

Under the leadership of Gaara, and with the assistance of Yagyu and Hinata, all of Hyde's hidden fleets were turned into scrap metal by the Sand Ninjas using wind jutsu and other ninjutsu.

The mobile fortress hidden in the mountains between the Kingdom of Wind and the Kingdom of Rivers was soon found by Yagyu and Hinata.

"Water Release·Water Breaking Wave!"

Yagyu didn't even use Wood Release. He just spit out a straight line of water, which cut a huge crack in the mobile fortress that was trying to escape.

With just a few random swings of the straight water jets, the huge mobile fortress was dismembered into several pieces.

Immediately, Gaara's three siblings swarmed over with a large number of Sand Ninjas.

But after they dealt with all the armored men who blocked their way, as well as some elite soldiers who could also use a little power of the Gray Stone, they did not find Hyde.

When they found Hyde's photo and asked Hinata to help sense and look for him, Hinata made a surprised sound: "I did see this person before, but he is not here now. No... There is no trace of him within a kilometer radius."

"Escaped?"

Temari looked grim and asked, "Another unknown technology?"

Yagyu didn't say anything, but he smiled secretly in his heart.

Hyde's disappearance was, of course, his fault.

The only people who knew the true power of the Gray Stone were the old caravan man and this Hyde.

Everyone else only has a vague understanding and has no idea of ​​the true power of the Gray Stone.

Long before the Wood Clone helped the Sand Village find the mobile fortress, they had already killed Hyde and recovered the remaining Gray Stones.

The Hyde that Hinata saw was just Yagyu's wooden clone using the technique of disguise.

After Hinata closed her Byakugan and the mobile fortress collapsed, the wooden clone directly used the Mayfly Technique to escape.
