Analyzing the Ninja World Starting from Konoha

Chapter 300 The Shift in the Shinobi World

Rumble!

The ground churned violently like boiling water, and the intense shaking made everyone lose their footing.

"Look! What's that?!"

"A tree—a huge tree has grown out of the ground!"

To everyone's astonishment, countless vines and branches burst forth from the ground, growing wildly upwards, quickly forming a dense forest that blocked out the sky!

boom! boom! boom!

A series of dull thuds echoed.

Meteorite fragments strike thick tree trunks, and even if the trunks break, they quickly recover.

Meanwhile, Kushina Uzumaki, standing on the rooftop, was panting heavily.

The cloak of tailed beast chakra covering her body had become somewhat transparent, clearly indicating that using such a large-scale wood-style ninjutsu was extremely taxing on her.

"Whew—Whew—We finally managed to block it."

Kushina wiped the sweat from her forehead, looked up at the huge Wood Release forest above her, and a hint of pride flashed in her eyes.

However, when she looked down and saw her surroundings, the smug look on her face froze instantly.

All that could be seen was that the area around her house, spanning several streets, had been transformed into a primeval jungle!

"Oh, this—"

Kushina awkwardly scratched her red hair and shrank back guiltily.

At this moment, the entire Hidden Leaf Village fell into a deathly silence.

A complex mix of emotions surged through the hearts of these foreign ninjas.

Aoba from Yamashiro was already terrifying enough, but I never expected that Konoha had two such strong people hidden there.

A terrifying chakra giant and Wood Release ninjas who once pacified a chaotic world—is this the strength of Konoha?!

The rooftop of the Hokage Building.

Snapped!

Tsunade slapped her forehead, her face full of black lines, she couldn't bear to look at herself.

"Kushina, that big idiot—"

In fact, after being intercepted by Aoba and Shisui, the remaining meteorite fragments were already very small in size.

Even if some large pieces were meteorites, they would at most damage a few houses. With Konoha's defensive capabilities, they could easily handle it and there would be no large-scale casualties.

After all, the people of Konoha aren't just sitting around doing nothing.

But Kushina did something else entirely, directly creating a Tree World Advent!

The damage caused by the meteorite fragments was not even as great as the damage caused by her Tree World Descent!

She planted trees all over several streets!

How much money would it cost to rebuild this?!

Konoha's finances were already strained, and now they're going to have to spend even more. Tsunade rubbed her temples, feeling a headache coming on.

"No, the reconstruction costs will be deducted from Kushina's personal savings."

Tsunade knew Kushina was a wealthy young woman, "Dan, remember to remind me."

"Um.

""

A masked ANBU ninja behind her nodded.

A relieved smile slowly appeared on Kato Dan's face, hidden beneath the mask.

"After many years, the Mangekyou Sharingan and Wood Release have reappeared in Konoha at the same time—"

Kato sighed inwardly.

Two other advisors, Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu, shared the same sentiment as Dan; in addition to shock, they were overjoyed.

After all, Wood Release is of great significance to Konoha!

Meanwhile, on the distant moon.

Inside the temple.

Obito Uchiha stood in front of the giant Tenseigan, staring intently at the image projected in mid-air.

The footage clearly shows everything that just happened in Konoha Village.

From Yamashiro Aoba's Yojutsu Rasengan to Uchiha Shisui's Susanoo, and then to Kushina's Wood Release.

With each new person, Obito's expression grew increasingly grim.

He controlled a meteorite to attack Konoha, intending only to cause some trouble for Yamashiro Aoba.

Although he didn't expect a single meteorite to cause much damage to Konoha, the result was very unsatisfactory and did not meet his expectations at all.

"Uchiha Shisui — Uzumaki Kushina —"

The strength these two suddenly displayed was completely unexpected by him.

However, Obito had already sensed that Shisui might have awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan, but Shisui had always kept a low profile and never revealed it to anyone.

Uchiha Shisui actually awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan and could even skillfully use Susanoo!

To his surprise, Kushina not only survived after he extracted the Nine-Tails, but also mastered Wood Release!

As for how he mastered Wood Release, Obito already had the answer in his heart.

"snort!"

Obito snorted coldly, forcibly suppressing his apprehension, and said in a chilling tone, "So what if I have the Mangekyou Sharingan and Wood Release?!"

"I possess both of these powers!"

"Once I fully master the power of my eyes, and with this Tenseigan, I will show them what true despair is!"

Although Obito spoke with great bravado, he was still filled with apprehension in his heart.

However, Black Zetsu saw far more than Obito did.

Although it's unclear why Kushina could still use Tailed Beast chakra even after the Nine-Tails had been removed, with the support of Tailed Beast chakra, even if she couldn't reach the world-destroying level of Hashirama, she was still far stronger than Obito's half-baked Wood Release.

What surprised Black Zetsu the most was Uchiha Shisui!

If we're talking about who understands the Uchiha clan best, Black Zetsu would definitely be number one.

The ordinary Mangekyou Sharingan is accompanied by decreased vision and unbearable pain with each use. To unlock the third stage, Susanoo, places an even more terrifying burden on the eye power and the body.

Shisui's eyes were clearly ordinary Mangekyou Sharingan, yet he was able to directly activate the third stage of Susanoo and even release the Yasaka Magatama continuously without showing the slightest pressure or pain!

Shisui has no biological brothers, and even if someone else's eyes are transplanted, the patterns in the kaleidoscope will change.

Shisui's eyes are not complicated; they are clearly just ordinary Mangekyou Sharingan!

There are only two possibilities for this to happen.

One is that Yamashiro Aoba has found a way to overcome the blindness side effect of the ordinary Mangekyou Sharingan!

Another example is that Uchiha Shisui also received a transplant of Hashirama's cells, which made him immune to the side effects of the Mangekyou Sharingan!

Neither possibility is good news for them.

If Yamashiro Aoba could really solve the side effects of the Mangekyou Sharingan on a large scale, how terrifying would the Uchiha clan of Konoha become?

If Shisui received the Hashirama cells, then his strength just now was definitely not that simple.

Things are getting more and more complicated.

Black Zetsu sighed and slowly sank into the ground.

"Obito, it's best not to provoke that guy until your eye power is completely stable."

"We need to revise our plan —"

Obito didn't speak, but waved his hand to turn off the image in front of him.

The news spread very quickly.

Even though the major ninja villages are thousands of miles apart, each village has its own methods for transmitting information back.

After all, what happened tonight was too shocking!

A meteorite falls, a chakra giant appears, and the Wood Release technique, which had quelled the chaos, reappears—each piece of news is a momentous event.

The Land of Earth, Hidden Rock Village.

Inside the towering Tuying Building, the lights were on.

The Third Tsuchikage, Onoki, held the urgent intelligence that had just been sent back, his eyes filled with undisguised horror.

"Susanoo — Wood Release —"

Onoki looked solemn.

The scene from back then involuntarily surfaced in my mind.

Back then, he was just a hot-blooded young man who followed the Second Tsuchikage, Mu, to Konoha to form an alliance.

As a result, they didn't even get to see the face of the First Hokage, Hashirama Senju, before being blocked at the door by a man named Madara Uchiha, where they saw Susanoo for the first time.

That suffocating sense of oppression, that arrogance that treated them like ants, is something Onoki will never forget in his life!

That was a psychological trauma that haunted him for the rest of his life!

"I never imagined that after so many years, someone from the Uchiha clan would once again possess that power!"

Onoki closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

In addition to Susanoo, there is also Wood Release!

"What on earth has blessed Konoha?!"

Onoki gritted his teeth, his eyes red with jealousy.

The monstrous Yamashiro Aoba was already suffocating the entire ninja world, and now even the Mangekyou Sharingan and Wood Release have appeared at the same time!

How are the other ninja villages supposed to survive?!

The thought of Iwagakure's current predicament caused Onoki a pang of heartache.

He finally found a disciple with exceptional talent, but the kid treated explosions as art and his mind was full of dangerous terrorist ideas.

Not long ago, he even defected from the village and joined a mysterious organization.

I heard that organization is full of dangerous S-rank rogue ninja!

"You damned bastard! You're infuriating!"

Onoki grew angrier and angrier, and slammed his hand on the table. The movement was so forceful that he strained his back.

"Ouch! My back!"

Onoki clutched his aching back in pain.

Besides feeling jealous and wary of Konoha's abundance of talent, Onoki was also filled with doubt and unease.

Who caused that sudden, enormous meteorite?

Could there be a terrifying being hidden in the ninja world who can control natural disasters?

Why has the ninja world suddenly become so unfamiliar to him?

The Land of Lightning, Hidden Cloud Village.

The door to the Raikage's office was suddenly pushed open, and a gust of wind swept in.

The Fourth Raikage, A, was urgently woken up in the middle of the night. He was shirtless and his face was as black as the bottom of a pot.

I was woken up in the middle of the night by an emergency call, only to be shown this piece of information that sent my blood pressure soaring.

"Wood Release! Chakra Giant?! Damn it, how come Konoha gets all the good things?!"

The Raikage didn't roar this time, but his anger was no less intense.

Standing on the earthen platform to the side, his face was equally gloomy.

He adjusted his sunglasses and asked in a deep voice, "Lord Raikage, Konoha's strength has far exceeded our expectations. Should we continue with our previous plan?"

"Keep going! Why don't you keep going?!"

Lei Ying Ai suddenly turned his head, staring intently at the earthen platform, his eyes filled with a fierce determination to never admit defeat.

"Not only must we continue, but we must also speed up the process!"

"Pass on my orders: move the advance force immediately! Go to those small countries, go to those places where there are no ninja villages to protect us."

"Bring all those children with special talents, especially those with bloodline limits, back to Kumogakure secretly!"

Lei Yingai's voice carried an undeniable domineering air.

The Hidden Cloud Village has always believed in the supremacy of force, and seizing the bloodline limits and secret techniques of other countries is commonplace for them.

They dared to steal even the Byakugan of the Hyuga clan and Kushina Uzumaki, so they have no qualms about scavenging geniuses from small countries.

"besides!"

Ray Shadow Ai continued, "Have the Dark Division intensify their efforts to collect all kinds of secret techniques. Use whatever means necessary, bring them back to me!"

"Furthermore, immediately establish a secret technique research institute in the village! Select the most talented students from the ninja academy and concentrate resources on having them learn and develop new secret techniques!"

Upon hearing the Raikage's rapid-fire commands, Tsuchikage nodded solemnly.

He knew very well that the Raikage had been thoroughly provoked by Konoha.

If Kumogakure doesn't relentlessly pursue them, they'll eventually be left far behind by Konoha, and may even become its complete vassal!

"I understand, Lord Raikage. I'll make the arrangements right away."

Tu Tai responded in a deep voice, then turned and strode out of the office.

The Land of Wind, Sunagakure Village.

At this moment, a suffocating silence filled the Fengyin office.

Ebizo slowly unfolded the intelligence scroll in his hand on the table.

Sitting opposite him were Granny Chiyo, the advisor of Sunagakure, and Rasa, the Fourth Kazekage.

The three of them stared at the description of Konoha in the intelligence report, remaining silent for a long time.

After a long while, Granny Chiyo let out a long sigh.

"Konoha's luck is infuriatingly good—"

Granny Chiyo shook her head, a hint of determination flashing in her cloudy eyes.

"The old woman can't stay idle any longer. Starting tomorrow, I will select a few talented juniors in the village and personally teach them puppetry."

At this point, Chiyo looked at Rasa.

"Rasa, you should take on a few disciples. The future of Sunagakure cannot be ruined by us old bones."

Luo Sha nodded solemnly.

As the Kazekage, he bears more pressure than anyone else.

The village was facing financial difficulties and a shortage of capable fighters. Now, Konoha had displayed such terrifying strength, and he felt the burden on his shoulders was so heavy that he could hardly breathe.

"I understand, Elder Chiyo," Rasa replied in a low voice.

At this moment, Ebizo cleared his throat, breaking the dull atmosphere.

"Ahem, there's one more thing—"

Ebizo's gaze lingered on Rasa's face for a moment before he slowly uttered a name, "About Yokura."

Upon hearing the name "Yakura," Rasa's body stiffened abruptly, and his expression instantly became somewhat unnatural.

In order to quell the anger of Kirigakure and secure a temporary peace, it was he, the Kazekage, who personally made the decision to sell Pakura, the hero of Sunagakure, to Kirigakure as a bargaining chip.

This is a mess, and a time bomb planted by Luo Sha himself.

"Yakura? Wasn't she already sacrificed herself? What happened?"

Luo Sha took a deep breath and asked, trying to appear calm.

Ebizo sighed inwardly as he observed Rasa's reaction.

"Our informants throughout the ninja world have sent back definitive information: not only is Pakura alive, but she has also been frequently visiting underground black markets and money exchange shops recently."

"Most importantly—she has mastered Magnet Release!"

"What?!"
