Ninja at the top of the food chain

Chapter 183 Vitality

"What's your attitude? Do you know who I'm running errands for?"

Sensing a slight dissatisfaction in Lei Luo's tone, Yuko straightened her face and said with a smile, "I know, I know... Thank you for your hard work, Lei Luo."

Lei Luo snorted coldly, and didn't bother to argue with Yuko, so he simply changed the subject: "Also, is there any way you can shorten the two-month course of treatment?"

The time spent in the country of tea is not short. Although the peaceful life is pleasant, it will be somewhat boring in the long run, so Lei Luo is already thinking about returning to Konoha as soon as possible.

The key to deciding when he will go back is how soon Yuko can cure his hidden troubles in the soul, so Lei Luo will ask this question.

Yuko may have sensed some of Lei Luo's thoughts, and felt slightly uncomfortable, but she still decided to tell the truth: "I can, but I can... But in that case, my consumption will be great, and it may even exceed the limit I can bear. "

Lei Luo was going to say "Hurry up", but Yuko's words were a little hesitant, and he couldn't help asking, "Consumption? What do you mean by consumption?"

Speaking of this, Yuko seemed a little embarrassed, and her expression was filled with hesitation, as if she didn't know how to reply.

There is something unspeakable about this appearance, Lei Luodang even felt a little strange:
Speaking of consumption, all his abilities, including ninjutsu, physical strength, etc., consume different things, but due to the countercurrent, they can all be classified as mental energy consumption.

The consumption of such things as mental power, Lei Luo can usually make up for it after a sleep, which is an energy resource with no side effects at all, so he has never taken consumption seriously.

As for Yuko's Shadow of Heart, in Lei Luo's view, this ability is obviously related to mental power, so Yuko's situation should be the same as his own.

But looking at the current situation, Yuko obviously has something to hide. Could it be that the shadow of the heart...is not consuming mental power, but something else?
Something restricted?
After thinking about it, Lei Luo eased his expression slightly, approached Yuko a few steps, put his hand on the latter's shoulder, and said seriously: "Yuko, we are companions..."

"So if you have any difficulties, just mention them. If I have a way, I will definitely help you."

"As you helped me."

Hearing this, Yuko raised her head slightly, and her eyes met Lei Luo's. When she felt the sincerity and firmness in the latter's eyes, her cheeks blushed slightly.

Affected by Lei Luo's emotions, Yuko gritted her teeth, and was about to say the words in her mouth, but unexpectedly her pupils shrank suddenly, and her personality switched unconsciously.

"I don't want to lose my memory, so you can't help me, Lei Luo."

The tone of the voice suddenly became cold, and Yuko's expression also returned to calm, but a complex emotion flashed in her eyes.

"Memory?" Lei Luo repeated these two words softly, and quickly understood Yuko's meaning. Because of this, he quickly understood what Yuko's difficulty was:
"Yuko, you... the shadow of your heart consumes your life force?"

Yuko didn't answer, just nodded slightly.

So that's the case... Lei Luo silently thought:
What countercurrent changes is the state of the human body, and Yuko just said that she doesn't want to lose her memory, so countercurrent should be able to make up for Yuko's consumption.

Regarding the consumption of the physical body, apart from chakra, it is the vitality. Lei Luo often activates the perception ability, and does not notice that Yuko's chakra is depleted too much.

That is to say, Shadow of Heart is a skill driven purely by vitality... To put it another way, every time Yuko uses various derivative abilities of Shadow of Heart, her lifespan may also decrease accordingly. A cut occurs.

Thinking of this, Lei Luo's expression was a bit unsightly. He withdrew his palm on Yuko's shoulder and asked bluntly, "Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

"I don't want to lose my memory."

"Then you've been hiding it like this? Until you die?"

"..."

At this moment, Lei Luo didn't quite understand Yuko's brain circuit, and the lack of vitality was not an unsolvable problem. Even if he didn't use his reverse flow to go back in time, there were many ways to solve this problem.

The interstitial cells that Tsunade loves to see, the Yin seal developed by Tsunade in later generations, a series of biotechnologies developed by Orochimaru, the earth grievances of Kakutsu, and even the cult of evil spirits from which Hidan was born...

As long as there is a goal, Lei Luo thought to himself, with his own ability, what can't be obtained after careful consideration?
"You should have told me!" Gazing at Yuko fiercely, Lei Luo took a deep breath, as if calming down the sense of powerlessness surging up from his chest.

Yuko seemed to have felt Lei Luo's emotions, she lowered her head like a child who did something wrong, and whispered in a nana tone:

"I just don't want you to worry about me anymore."

"I'm even more worried now!"

He replied angrily, and after finishing speaking, Lei Luo crossed his arms and began to think about how to solve the problem of Yuko's lack of vitality as quickly as possible.

At present, the easiest thing to get is the intercolumnar cells, but Konoha should have just begun to study this thing, and it may be very dangerous to use it suddenly.

Wait... If it's just that the vitality is damaged, it's okay to get some supplements to deal with it temporarily. After all, Yuko is not terminally ill, let alone dying. Lei Luo feels that there is no need to rush.

After thinking about this, Lei Luo had an idea in an instant. He smiled at Yuko and said, "Yuko, I think you should gain weight."

This sentence instantly made Yuko tremble all over, even with a calm personality, she also had a chilling feeling.

……

In the next period of time, Lei Luo attacked everywhere, wandering back and forth throughout the country of tea, using a huge sum of money handed in by Kyousuke to frantically buy various tonics.

Jing Jie, the Langren, is really a real person. After so many years, he has saved a lot of money, even half of his total property, which has reached [-] to [-] million.

Lei Luo didn't know how Kyosuke, such a little Ronin, had so much wealth, and he didn't want to know, as long as the money could buy enough resources, he didn't bother to care about other things.

Lei Luo didn't know, if it wasn't for the existence of An Nai, and if An Nai knew some of Kyosuke's old background, otherwise, this 50-year-old Lao Langren might not be willing to pay Lei Luo so much.

Thanks to the supplement of a large amount of medicinal materials, as well as the formula prepared by some medicinal materials that Lei Luo searched from Qiu Daodingzuo's memory, Yuko finally gradually replenished the vitality that was lacking in the long-term use of the shadow of the heart.

Even her figure, she also gained a lot of weight. Although Yuko was very reluctant about this, Lei Luo completely ignored any objections of the former.

In addition, according to what Yuko said, if you continue to use the ability of the shadow of the heart, the speed of the loss of vitality will only become faster and faster, and in the end, there will be a day when there will be too much to replenish.

But Lei Luo believes that before that day comes, he will find a way to completely cure the side effects of the shadow of the heart, and solve this problem once and for all.
