Konoha: Becoming a God Starting with Aburame

Chapter 289 The Void-Eating Insects That Devour Space!

Leaf.

The dramatic changes that occurred in Kirigakure also attracted the attention of the other four great ninja villages, and various spies infiltrated the Land of Water.

But these spies entered the Land of Water and didn't even make a ripple.

Because the current Land of Water is a kingdom of monsters, spies, as humans, are very conspicuous.

The spies of Konoha were all wiped out, and the last thing they sent back was a photo—a photo of the new supreme leader of Kirigakure!

It was this photo that made the retired Third Hokage lose his amiable smile, and his eyes almost popped out of their sockets!

"The new leader of Kirigakure looks like this..."

"Hahaha... You know what, this new leader of Kirigakure does bear a resemblance to Danzo in his younger days... What a load of rubbish!"

"This is exactly like Danzo when he was young!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi paced anxiously around the house, completely unprepared for things to have come to this!

He originally thought that Danzo's best outcome would be to eke out a living in the shadows of the ninja world. Even with the giant armor—Nightmare King—he would only be better off living in a dark ravine.

The five great ninja villages of today are not comparable to the five great ninja villages of the past. Their strength, influence, and technology have all become extremely formidable!

Although the five great ninja villages were very powerful in the past, they still left a lot of room for development for other villages.

Now the ninja world has been completely divided up by the five great ninja villages, leaving no room for other forces to rise.

That's why he turned a blind eye to the giant's armored form—the Nightmare King—being summoned away, since Danzo couldn't cause any major trouble anyway.

But who could have imagined that Danzo would directly become the supreme leader of Kirigakure!

This is just as outrageous as Danzo becoming Hokage!

Hiruzen Sarutobi's feelings were hard to describe.

I'm both afraid my brother is suffering and afraid he's driving a Land Rover!

However, whenever Hiruzen Sarutobi thought about the information and forbidden techniques Danzo knew about Konoha, he was filled with endless regret.

"Teacher, I'm guilty!"

Putting everything else aside, Danzo had a 100% copy of the forbidden techniques in the Konoha Scroll of Seals!

These are all part of Konoha's rich heritage!

Now, the thought that a former Hokage advisor who controlled most of Konoha's resources has become the controller of an enemy force is terrifying.

"It seems we have to tell Minato the information."

……

Training Department.

Zhiyi is conducting an experiment in the laboratory.

The success of the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons provided Shiichi with a lot of material for his experiments.

This also led to a breakthrough in the research on the Void Eater.

"Spatial abilities are indeed very useful, but they're not so fun if they're used on enemies."

"Currently, my means of restricting space are still quite limited. When I encounter someone like the Otsutsuki who has standard spatial abilities, I am still quite helpless."

"I don't want to spend a lot of effort to defeat the Otsutsuki, only to have the Otsutsuki escape with a simple space-time teleportation."

Zhiyi said this as he modified the strange insect in front of him.

"Research on Void-Eating Insects has always been difficult, partly because there is little data on their spatial abilities, making them hard to study. On the other hand, it is very difficult for insects to evolve to the point where they possess a life structure capable of devouring space."

"But now we've finally made some progress, albeit still very rough. But as long as we continue our research, it will become more and more perfect."

"Speaking of which, I have to thank the Evil God. If it weren't for the Evil God's space allowing me to further understand the spatial structure, the Void Devouring Worm would probably have had to wait a while longer before it could be born."

Zhiyi sighed.

The evil god's space is quite special, or rather, both the evil god and the alternate dimension are quite special, and the combination of the two makes it even more special.

For the Void-Eating Insect to devour space, it must first be able to "touch" space. This "touch" is not the passive "living in space" kind of "touch," but rather an active "touch" of space.

If you can't actively "touch" the space, then there's no way you can devour it.

Therefore, "touching" space is a problem that the Void Eater must solve, and it is also a key step in the birth of the Void Eater.

Zhiyi has always had a headache about this; going from 0 to 1, especially without any reference points, is not easy.

Then... we encountered the evil god's space, the standard answer to the problem of "touching" space!

A thousand years ago, the evil god was left with an incurable wound by the Otsutsuki, and then encountered another dimension by sheer chance.

At that time, the evil god was seriously injured and on the verge of death, so he gritted his teeth and stomped his foot, and sacrificed his body to the other dimension.

Or, to put it another way, the evil god combines his body with another dimension, and then uses that other dimension as his body to carry and nurture his soul, thus surviving the attacks of the Otsutsuki.

Regardless, the fact that the evil god's body could merge with another dimension is a miracle.

Because the evil god's body not only "touched" space, but also merged with it.

After obtaining the Evil God Space, Zhiyi has been researching it and has acquired a large amount of spatial data from it.

It was because of the standard reference answer of the Evil God Space that the Void Devouring Worm was able to break through the step of "touching" space and be born.

Next, Zhiyi added the devouring abilities of the Void Terror Cho'Gath and Samehada to the Void Eater, giving it a good set of "teeth" that could gnaw on space. Then, he also added the ability of the Gray Gu's right hand to freeze space to the Void Eater.

Ultimately, the initial version of the Void Eater was born.

A type of insect that floats in the air. This floating is not a ninjutsu like Magnet Release, Repulsion, or Earth Release: Super Light Heavy Rock Technique, but a true space-traveling experience!

"The Void Eater's ability is quite good. It can improve the Void Terror Cho'Gath's Void Wandering ability. In this way, Cho'Gath can try to break through the Shinobi World and travel to other planets."

The Void-Eating Insects kept wandering around, slowly bore a small hole into the space under Zhiyi's watchful gaze.

"It seems that the Void Worm is not very efficient at present. It would take a long time to bore a void cage around the target, create a spatial storm, and stop spatial abilities."

"Therefore, the development of the Void Eater requires a two-pronged approach!"

"On the one hand, we are constantly conducting research and optimizing the Void Eater to increase its spatial affinity and the speed at which it devours space."

"On the other hand, we need to increase the number of Void-Eating Insects. As long as there are enough of them, even if their space-devouring efficiency is not high, they can still meet the need to seal off the space."

"And it also has the ability to freeze space."

"Once the Void Devouring Insects swarm and form a frozen space, stopping everything in its path, this vast domain should not be underestimated."
