Chapter 261 The True Meaning of Chakra

"You mean Infinite Tsukuyomi?" Naruto thought to himself.

“It’s obvious,” Kaguya said.

"Only in this way can you achieve a leapfrog improvement in your strength based on the existing foundation."

"In this era, after thousands of years of development, the quantity and quality of humankind are far beyond what my time could have imagined."

Naruto remained noncommittal.

“I know you have concerns, but you can rest assured about that,” Kaguya said.

"You, who are now the divine tree, and I, who have lost the demonic statue of the heretics, will find it all futile and useless no matter what I do."

"I wouldn't do something that would dig my own grave. Of course, this is just my suggestion. Whether you take it or not is up to you."

Having said that, Kaguya fell silent.

Naruto pondered for a moment, then put the matter out of his mind.

You can't completely disbelieve what Kaguya says, but you can't believe everything she says either. Who knows if there's some kind of trap waiting for him to fall into?

“However, that is a possibility.” Naruto said thoughtfully.

In the plot.

In the Sage of Six Paths' memories, facing Indra, who was unleashing his full power in his Perfect Susanoo form and refused to back down on the matter of Ashura being the heir to the Ninja Sect,...

At that time, under the guidance of the Sage of Six Paths, the people who supported Ashura transferred their chakra to Ashura, allowing Ashura to successfully unleash the True Several Thousand Hands.

They defeated Indra in one fell swoop, securing the victory.

The principles of the Six Paths and Chibaku Tensei are also related to the harmony of chakra.

Two individuals possessing the power of the Six Paths each condense the ultimate Yang power and the ultimate Yin power, and with their minds in sync, simultaneously touch their target.

The chakra merged into one, triggering the ultimate seal.

As for the final battle between Team 7 and Kaguya, Obito's strength did not change despite Sakura's chakra support; he was merely able to use Sakura's chakra.

It's easy to understand, since the two don't understand each other's intentions. They only joined forces because they had a common goal: to find Sasuke.

As he was thinking, Naruto suddenly stretched out his right hand: "Hinata, cooperate with me in an experiment."

"How do we do it?" Hinata put down her chopsticks.

"Lend me your chakra," Naruto said.

Hinata understood, grabbed Naruto's hand, gathered her chakra, and guided it to flow towards Naruto, using their hands as a connecting channel to transmit it.

hum!

A subtle and mysterious feeling arose in my heart.

Naruto, in a moment of inspiration, enters Six Paths Sage Mode.

A dazzling golden light, a radiant chakra cloak, covered his entire body.

Nine Seeking the Dao Jade appeared out of nowhere and floated behind him.

Following the Jade of Seeking the Way, a phantom image of a large Buddha, devoid of joy or sorrow, slowly appears.

Hinata's beautiful eyes widened: "What is that! The Wood Release technique, True Several Thousand Hands?"

Suddenly, Hinata's vision blurred, and her consciousness split in two: one part inside her own body, and the other part in the boundless sea of ​​stars.

Naruto, whose consciousness was also split in two, raised his free left hand and clenched his fist: "It's at least three times stronger... Amazing!"

"How could this be! Why is the growth rate so large?" Kaguya was stunned.

“From the parts of Hamura’s memories that he repaired, I saw a quote from Hagoromo, which is a quote from the Sage of Six Paths,” Naruto said.

"Chakra is the power of connecting hearts, sharing resources, and understanding each other. Now, I understand what he meant by that."

"Indeed, the Rinnegan and Tenseigan can forcibly plunder the chakra of others for one's own use, but that's about it."

"You can only use as much as you plunder; you can't break through the limit, or rather, even if you can break through the limit, you won't get much more."

"If we abandon plundering and instead unite with people who understand, trust, and support each other, we can borrow their chakra with their consent."

"In this situation, chakra undergoes a strange chemical reaction, resulting in something greater than one plus one, greater than two, greater than three, and even..."

"It's an effect greater than four, greater than five."

"What nonsense are you spouting?" Kaguya retorted instinctively.

"Trust, that's the most unreliable thing. How can there be true trust between people?"

"The end of trust is betrayal. When such doubts and worries arise in one's heart, trust ceases to exist."

"Can you explain this to me?" Naruto asked.

"Why did you, who released the Infinite Tsukuyomi a thousand years ago, extracting the chakra of most humans for your own use, act so arrogantly..."

"Will you lose to your two children?"

"The answer is very simple, and it was only at this point that I fully understood and realized it."

"Hagoromo, Hamura, their individual strength is no match for yours, but..."

"The two brothers are of one mind and trust each other unconditionally. Their chakra is perfectly blended together."

"It has surpassed the chakra of the whole world and all people that you plundered through Infinite Tsukuyomi."

Kaguya choked, wanting to retort but unsure what to say. Recalling the events of the past, it seemed that Naruto's words were indeed true.

“Infinite Tsukuyomi is a last resort. It’s a method that you people who don’t understand chakra use for convenience and to save time and effort,” Naruto said.

"What did you say! We don't understand chakra?" Kaguya couldn't stand it anymore: "The origin of chakra is the Divine Tree, and the Divine Tree is in the hands of the Otsutsuki."

“What you’re doing is just crude brute force; you haven’t grasped the true meaning of chakra,” Naruto said. “The Sage of Six Paths was the one who truly unraveled the mystery of chakra.”

Kaguya was furious, and what angered her most was that she had no rebuttal, so she simply remained silent and pretended to be profound.

Naruto's words were not only addressed to Kaguya, but also served as an explanation to Hinata.

Having understood Naruto's intentions and actually experienced firsthand the temporary boost in his power, Hinata exclaimed in amazement, "How amazing!"

"I've been exposed to chakra since I was a child, but this is the first time I've ever known that chakra can be used like this!"

“Yes.” Naruto smiled and said, “In this way, as long as I have enough strong and powerful supporters, my strength can increase dramatically.”

"My perception once expanded to encompass the entire Earth, or even larger and broader. At that time, no matter where Obito hid, I could find him immediately."

"I don't know if Shadow Clone Technique can be used to enhance my power in this way. It probably won't work, since the nature of chakra is the same."

He got more and more excited as he talked.

After Hinata finished dinner, the two of them packed up their things and took them home. On the way, Naruto counted on his fingers the people he could trust.

Dad, Mom.

Hinata and her family, the Hyuga clan.

Sakura and Ino.

Teacher Kakashi.

Sasuke.

Tsunade, Jiraiya, Asuma, Kurenai, Anko, Guy, and Iruka.

These are certainly the preferred options, but that doesn't mean others are unsuitable.

In theory, anyone who has no ill intentions towards Naruto and is willing to support him meets the requirements.

Chapter 262 Support from the Three Great Immortal Lands

The Hokage's office was the first to be repaired.

Upon receiving the notification, Minato, who had immediately switched directions, asked in confusion, "The Five Kage Summit is off? What does that mean?"

"It's not going to happen for now, if we can achieve it on our own," Tsunade corrected.

"Naruto said he has a way to find Obito, but he can't do it on his own; he needs a lot of help."

"To be honest, I haven't figured it out yet, because I tried the method he described with Jiraiya, Shizune, and me, but it didn't work."

"It seems that some condition needs to be met. There's something that Naruto has but I don't, so it won't work."

"But I've already sent the letter, and now they're saying they won't talk... uh..." Minato said awkwardly.

"So fast!" Tsunade was stunned and speechless.

Being fast also has its troubles. When unexpected changes occur and you want to back out, the speed at which things were done makes it impossible to take things back.

"Well, it's good to talk about it," Tsunade said. "But this matter isn't urgent, we can put it aside for now. Let's call all the people who are out here back and do a screening."

“Screening? What are the criteria?” Minato asked.

"I don't dislike Naruto, and I have no ill will towards him," Tsunade said.

“Screen everyone who has extracted chakra, including students currently enrolled at the Ninja Academy. The more people, the better.”

"How can we determine the existence of malice, which is a subjective concept?" Minato asked, perplexed.

"Hmm," Tsunade said after thinking for a moment.

"To put it simply, make it clear from the beginning that anyone who is disliked or has malicious intent should withdraw voluntarily. If they are faking it, they will be found out at the last minute."

"The punishment will be doubled."

"More than a decade ago, the Nine-Tails attacked the village. Because of this, there were quite a few people who hated Naruto, but most of them were civilians."

"What we need this time are ninjas who possess chakra, and there is a distinction between them and ordinary people."

"In addition, over the years, Naruto's shadow clones have done a lot of missions, good deeds, and reputation-building. Now, there shouldn't be many people who truly hate him."

"Yes, that's true." Minato said, embarrassed.

The truth is, these Naruto shadow clones are not real Naruto shadow clones, but rather imposters.
