Starting from the root of Konoha, he was the mastermind behind the scenes

Chapter 39: Sarutobi Hiruzen's Decision, Man of Steel! (Seeking follow-up recommendation votes and monthly tickets)

It will be a success!

It's about the show under the stars.

The Sky Ninjas suffered heavy casualties this time. Not only was their leader assassinated, but hundreds of ninjas were killed in this battle.

The Root Squad also suffered heavy casualties in terms of the proportion of their numbers.

Regardless of whether they died in the Root or the Sky Ninja, they were the leaders of the Sky Ninja and will not be remembered in the future.

Or, even if it is mentioned, it is only used as a backdrop to show off one's fame under the stars.

……

When other Root teams arrived and entered the woods, they were shocked to see the miserable corpses hanging there.

When they arrived at the center and learned from Shimura Daichi and others that the leader of the Sky Ninjas was assassinated by Hoshita Hide, everyone looked at Hoshita Hide with awe.

Wood Release Ninja, so terrifying!
Xing Xiaxiu could feel the gazes of people around her, and her sensitivity was more acute than ever before.

[Mental Abnormality] caused?

Xing Xiaxiu guessed secretly, but unfortunately the time was wrong.

If I were in Konoha, perhaps I could find some corresponding secret techniques to practice.

For example, soul-type ninjutsu, such as Senju Tobirama's soul confinement, even the spirit transformation technique, and perception-type ninjutsu should all be suitable.

But today is the last day of this [Mental Abnormal] state, and Xingxia Xiu has no intention of solidifying this state permanently.

The probability of neurosis is not small.

Xingxia Xiu doesn't like the feeling of being out of control.

"I still feel like I don't have enough chakra..."

Xingxiaxiu sighed secretly.

Hashirama's cells greatly increased his chakra level, which represents the Yang escape power of the physical body.

This is the key to the power of Wood Release.

Can Yamato's Wood Release absorb chakra?

Xing Xiaxiu doesn't remember.

It seems that it only reacts when facing the Nine-Tails Chakra?

"Nine-Tails Chakra, full of vitality, closest to the Ten-Tails' Chakra."

"The Ten-Tails Sacred Tree can definitely absorb chakra."

Xingxiaxiu pondered secretly.

The source of chakra comes from the Ten-Tails Divine Tree, and the source of bloodline limit can also be said to come from the Ten-Tails Divine Tree.

It is not known whether Hashirama Senju's Wood Release or ordinary Wood Release can absorb chakra.

But the Wood Dragon Technique should be able to work.

At least Xingxia Xiu was certain that the Wood Dragon Technique performed by Uchiha Madara could absorb the power of the Nine-Tails.

There is also White Zetsu's Spore Technique, which can also absorb chakra and then pass it on to others.

"It seems I must delve deeper into the power of Wood Release and the power of Hashirama's cells."

"Even, can we cooperate with Orochimaru in the future?"

Xingxia Xiu wondered if he could transform all the cells in his body into Hashirama cells?
Yamato's Wood Release is one kind of power, and White Zetsu's Wood Release displayed by controlling Yamato is another kind of power.

There is also Uchiha Madara, who transplanted Hashirama's cells, which gave him another powerful power.

It can be said that Hoshita Hide's current Wood Release performance is stronger than Yamato, but his strength is limited and is far from the level of White Zetsu and Uchiha Madara.

after an hour.

The star show ended and took a break.

When he opened his eyes, team leaders including Daichi Shimura all looked over.

Nakamura said, "The air ninjas are still monitoring us. Their number has increased to over sixty, but they don't seem to be planning to attack."

Xing Xiaxiu stood up and said, "Ten, leave three teams with me to cover the rear, and the other teams will retreat first."

"We will retreat to the Land of Hot Springs and await orders from Lord Danzo."

Daichi Shimura and others nodded.

A moment later, after making preparations, a total of twelve Root teams began to retreat in an orderly manner.

When the Sky Ninja saw this, he immediately followed and kept a close watch, but he showed no intention of attacking.

Soon, night fell, and Xingxia Xiu and others crossed the border and entered the Kingdom of Hot Springs.

After determining the resting place.

Xing Xiaxiu put his hands together and formed the Si seal. The next moment, vines and trees rose from the ground, forming a series of wooden houses arranged in a square. Then, watchtowers and corner towers rose up one after another.

At the outermost edge, a wooden wall rose from the ground, forming a simple defense.

This scene amazed Daichi Shimura and others.

It is simply a must-have ninjutsu for ninjas when traveling and camping.

On the other side of the border of the Moon Kingdom, Gu Yue Dacheng discussed with several other Sky Ninja Jonins and decided to retreat after leaving six teams to monitor.

The leader was assassinated and the village was in chaos. He had to go back to stabilize the situation.

……

Konoha, root base.

Danzo took the note from his subordinate, opened it, and looked a little surprised.

The situation was indeed beyond his expectations.

He actually assassinated the leader of the Sky Ninja!
What an unexpected surprise.

This situation gave Danzo an opportunity to get rid of the Sky Ninja.

The Sky Ninja are leaderless and in a period of chaos, and this is the best time to deal with them!
Immediately, Danzo left the Root base with the information.

It was already late at night, and even Sarutobi Hiruzen was already sleeping with his wife in his arms.

But he was called up by Danzo.

Sarutobi Hiruzen was also shocked when he learned about the situation on the Sky Ninja side, but then he quickly calmed down and weighed the pros and cons.

It was only a moment before Sarutobi Hiruzen spoke under Danzo's expectant gaze: "This is indeed a very good opportunity."

"But it happened too suddenly."

“It takes time to mobilize forces.”

"Danzo, you should take some people and go to the Moon Country first. Make sure that the Sky Ninjas don't have time to reorganize their forces."

"Also, have Sakumo lead his men across the Land of Hot Springs and confront the Cloud Ninja at the border of the Land of Moon. Make sure the Cloud Ninja do not interfere!"

"Later, I will have Yan and Xiaochun bring support. You will be in charge of the front line. Make sure to completely eliminate the Sky Ninja!"

By the end of his words, Sarutobi Hiruzen's voice was filled with murderous cruelty.

Danzo smiled and said, "I understand!"

……

In the country of hot springs, inside the wooden house.

Xing Xiaxiu watched the countdown on the status bar above his head slowly approach the end.

At midnight on October 36, the 10th year of Konoha, the status was refreshed on time.

"I hope this time it's something normal and useful, preferably related to ninjutsu."

Xingxia Xiu prayed silently, then looked at the new situation.

Current Status: Man of Steel
Note: From now on, you have a body of steel, please use it with caution.

Refresh countdown: 167:59:57
Man of Steel, literally again?
Xingxia Xiu couldn't help but pinch his left arm with his hand. It was so hard, like pinching steel.

Is this... considered a Blood Limit of Steel Style?
Xingxia Xiu remembered that there seemed to be a steel escape technique in the ninja world.

Then can I start with this steel body and create steel escape?

But how?
Xingxia Xiu couldn't help but frown.

Of the several states he had experienced so far, only [Swordsmanship Expert] had been solidified into a permanent state.

At that time, he had truly brought his swordsmanship to the expert level, completely mastering the swordsmanship skills brought by the [Swordsmanship Expert] state, thereby solidifying this state and gaining additional expert-level swordsmanship talent.

After that, I failed to acquire the ability to be indecisive, but I did develop the ability to do two things at the same time.

just.

Xingxiaxiu felt his body, but subjectively he didn't feel anything special.

It's similar to the immortal body at the beginning. It's probably difficult to get any information from it.

"But the idea of ​​Steel Release shouldn't be wrong."

Xingxiaxiu pondered inwardly, then suddenly realized something after looking at the annotations.

"Wait, why use caution?"

"Could it be..."

Xing Xiaxiu's expression changed, and then she reached out and pinched the little head.

Bang bang hard, real steel!
