Konoha's lexicon of ninjas

Chapter 270 Resurrection! (Please subscribe and vote with monthly tickets)

In the land of rivers, inside a mountain cave that has been protected by a barrier.

The young Gaara fell from the sky, his life force rapidly fading as Shukaku, the One-Tailed Beast, was completely drained from him.

Nagato, who was in charge of the sealing, immediately said, "Kakuzu, you all leave immediately and go to the second base to prepare to seal the Two-Tails."

"It's highly likely that Hoshino Shuichi left a mark on the Jinchuriki; the barrier might not be able to stop him!"

Kakuzu nodded: "Understood!"

Deer-like Kuohai complained, "Can't the Ten-Tails solve this problem?"

"This Jinchūriki isn't quite dead yet. Don't I even have time to complete the ritual?"

Kakuzu sneered, "If you want to fight Hoshino Shuichi and see if he can kill you, you can stay here."

Xiao Lu Kuohai shrugged: "Even the leader is no match for him, I dare not confront him head-on."

Nagato, too lazy to waste words, dispelled the projection technique.

Kakuzu and Hiromi immediately withdrew from the stronghold, leaving Gaara on the ground unattended.

However, shortly after they left, Hoshino Shuichi appeared next to Gaara.

"Fortunately, there's still a chance to save them."

Hoshino Shuichi immediately used a soul-binding technique to imprison Gaara's departing soul within his body.

As for reviving Gaara, there are two ways.

The other half of the tail was injected into Gaara's body, followed by Chiyo's Reanimation Jutsu.

It is currently uncertain whether Chiyo's Reincarnation Technique has been completed by Hoshino Shuichi; perhaps it has.

"But it's probably too late..."

Hoshino looked at Gaara and smiled slightly: "I'll try it on you. If it doesn't work, then it's just your destiny to suffer this calamity."

As he spoke, he used a summoning technique and summoned a White Zetsu.

This is one of the White Zetsu captured back then.

The next moment, Hoshino Shuichi entered Sage Mode, placing one hand on White Zetsu. White Zetsu's body shrank little by little, and all of its cells were devoured by Hoshino Shuichi.

Meanwhile, Hoshino Shuichi's body rapidly expanded.

Cellular absorption is a technique that allows one to absorb the flesh and cells of others, transforming them into one's own cells, enabling one's injured body to recover at an extremely fast rate.

This technique was developed based on research into Jugo cells and combined with the cultivation of immortality.

Hoshino Shuichi remembers that Jugo also possessed this skill.

The technique that works in conjunction with this is Cell Regeneration, which allows you to distribute your own chakra-containing cells to injured people to help them heal. Because it consumes a large number of cells, Jugo will turn into a child after using it.

Hoshino Shuichi didn't actually need to absorb White Zetsu's cells first; it was just that the one in front of him wasn't his original body, but a shadow clone.

So what's happening now is actually him transforming White Zetsu's cells to give to Gaara.

Because Gaara's body cells have actually begun to die on a large scale, especially brain cells, Hoshino Shuichi needs to replace Gaara's cells with Yang Release chakra cells that contain his powerful healing abilities.

This is a treatment model established by Hoshino Shuichi after he mastered the Sage Transformation.

However, for Jugo in the original work to achieve this, there is another prerequisite: the target must be someone who has adapted to Jugo's own cursed power, which is also known as celestial power.

However, Hoshino Shuichi doesn't need to, even though it has only been tested on animals before, and not on humans.

One reason this is possible is that the Star Seal has far greater universality than Orochimaru's cursed seal, allowing natural energy to perfectly combine with anyone without the risk of going berserk.

Another is the characteristic of Hoshino Shuichi's own chakra.

Or rather, it's a characteristic obtained from the Nine-Tails' chakra.

The Nine-Tails' power is closest to that of the Ten-Tails, and it can harmonize its chakra to suit anyone.

After absorbing the White Zetsu, Hoshino Shuichi raised his hand and slashed open Gaara's chest. He pressed his palm against the wound and began to expel the cells, introducing the vital cells into Gaara's body and adjusting them to be completely suitable for Gaara so that there would be no rejection reaction.

As cells were continuously injected, Gaara's lifeless body was revived.

A heartbeat returns, blood flow resumes, breathing resumes, and the brain restarts its functions...

Soon, Gaara, who had just died, came back to life.

This treatment method is almost identical to the one used by Kabuto Yakushi to treat Sasuke Uchiha in the original manga.

Gaara slowly opened his eyes, his vision clearing from blurry: "You...who are you?"

Hoshita Shuichi chuckled, "Hoshita Shuichi, Shukaku must have mentioned me to you, right?"

Gaara's eyes widened instantly: "It's you!"

Xingxia Xiu nodded: "It's me!"

Gaara's mind raced for a moment before he finally understood the situation: "Shukaku was captured, and you saved me?"

"Thanks."

"Shukaku said you are very powerful, and that if he were ever captured, only you could save me. It's true."

Gaara asked with some expectation, "Can you save Shukaku?"

Hoshita Shuichi chuckled: "It seems you and Shukaku get along quite well."

"Don't worry, Shukaku will come back."

"Let's go, I'll take you home. Your mother and sister must be very worried."

Gaara immediately got up from the ground upon hearing this.

Sunagakure Village.

After a period of chaos, order was restored under the leadership of Chiyo and Ebizo. Ninja squads were dispatched to track down the enemy while simultaneously requesting assistance from their ally, Konoha.

But no one expected that Gaara would be rescued so quickly.

So when Hoshita Shuichi returned with Gaara, Chiyo and the others were all shocked.

Karyu hugged her son tightly. Temari opened her eyes wide and looked up at the familiar yet unfamiliar person in front of her. Bathed in sunlight, she felt that this person was even more majestic than her father.

However, Hoshino Shuichi didn't notice the little guy and was saying to Chiyo, "The Akatsuki has completed the acquisition of the One-Tailed Beast."

"What?"

Chiyo was shocked, her gaze falling on the unharmed Gaara: "Then Gaara is...?"

Hoshita Hideaki said, "It is certain that a Jinchuriki will die if their Tailed Beast is extracted, but there are still some techniques in this world that can reverse life and death."

really.

Chiyo was shocked: "As expected of Konoha."

Hoshino Hideichi asked, "I heard you also developed a similar technique?"

Chiyo nodded: "There is indeed such a technique, but it is not intended for healing."

"And the cost is also very high."

Hoshino Shizuka understood; it seemed that the Reincarnation Technique was complete.

Just then, a tiny little boy stepped forward, tilted his head back, and said in a clear voice, "Thank you for saving Gaara!"

Hoshita Shuichi looked down at Temari and smiled, "You still remember me?"

Temari nodded emphatically: "Of course."

"I'm going to challenge you in the future."

"However, would you consider me your disciple?"

Hoshita Shuichi was surprised to hear this, and Karyu quickly stepped forward and apologized, "Please forgive me, Shuichi-kun."

After apologizing, Karyu immediately scolded Temari: "Temari, you can't be so rude."

"You should call Shuichi-kun 'Shuichi-sama,' and Shuichi-sama could never be your teacher."

Upon hearing this, Temari quickly and obediently corrected herself, "Lord Shuichi..."

Hoshita Hideichi smiled and said, "Lady Kazekage, it's not that I can't accept Temari as my disciple."

Chiyo's gaze was deep, sensing that Hoshino Shuichi held a very profound meaning.

Temari's eyes lit up, full of anticipation.

Find an apprentice, learn all their skills, and then take on the challenge!

Karyu was somewhat surprised and hesitant, and quickly said awkwardly, "Shuichi-kun, I'm very sorry, this matter needs to wait for Rasa to return before a decision can be made."

Hoshino Shuichi nodded slightly and smiled, "Then that's settled. I'll be going now; there are others to save."

He disappeared as soon as he finished speaking.

Karura first had Temari take her two younger brothers away, then turned to Chiyo and asked, "Grandma, what does Shuichi-kun mean by this?"

"Even if the village and Konoha are allies, it's still incredibly surprising that they're taking on disciples."

Granny Chiyo, however, thought of Kusagakure and Amegakure.

The three great ninja villages joined forces to go to Amegakure, but the Akatsuki suddenly launched an attack, and Hoshinobi Shuichi even saved Gaara, so something must have happened.

"This new god of ninja has even greater ambitions than the First Hokage, Hashirama Senju."

Granny Chiyo pondered, "We'll probably have to wait for the Kazekage to return to find out the specifics. I hope things aren't too bad."

She had a vague sense that something was wrong.

……

The Land of Soup.

Bound and forced to watch helplessly as Yugito's Two-Tails was extracted, Killer Bee closed his eyes in resignation and said to the Eight-Tails, "Hachi, it seems the worst has happened. Yugito is doomed, you bastard, you idiot!"

The Eight-Tails said in a deep voice, "Remember what I said, take Yugito to Konoha, maybe we can still save her."

"The other half of the Two-Tails is with Shuichi Hoshino."

Killer Bee nodded. "I understand. I just hope they'll give me this plan, you idiots, you bastards!"

Bang!

As the wooden doll landed, Nagato released the summoning, then grabbed Killer Bee and left.

"Oh no... this guy needs to be sealed separately."

Yamata sensed something was wrong: "That's it... This guy probably already guessed that we have the mark left by Hoshino Shuichi on us."

"By the way, big trouble is coming!"

"If Hoshino Shuichi doesn't arrive in time, you probably won't be able to escape."

Killer Bee broke out in a cold sweat: "In that case, we'll only have one option left: a desperate counterattack, you bastard, you idiot!"

After Nagato left with Killer Bee, Shuichi Hoshita appeared with Hashirama Senju.

"Looks like we're too late."

Hashirama Senju glanced at Yugito on the ground.

Hoshino Hideichi frowned slightly, then said, "He should still be able to be saved."

Although Yukito's soul has entered the Pure Land.

Hashirama Senju exclaimed in surprise, "It seems your skill in medical ninjutsu has completely surpassed mine!"

Hoshita Shuichi approached Yugito: "The student surpasses the master, after all!"

"It is also thanks to the valuable legacy left by our ancestors."

As he spoke, he used a ninjutsu, a jutsu pattern unfolded on the ground, and then a soul appeared.

Two Yukito!

Hashirama Senju couldn't help but admire, "The skillful use of the Impure World Reincarnation technique is truly ingenious. It seems that Tobirama's development of this ninjutsu was not without its benefits."

"Thank you for the compliment."

As Hoshino Shuichi spoke, he stuffed the souls of the two Yugitos into her corpse, and then used Tobirama Senju's Soul Imprisonment Technique to imprison them.

Then came the transformation into a sage. Hoshino Shizuka's body suddenly swelled rapidly, and in the blink of an eye, he became a small giant more than three meters tall.

Hashirama Senju looked on in surprise again: "Such amazing chakra control! I never imagined that Sage Mode could be used like this."

Hoshino Shuichi used a single finger to slice open Yugito's chest, injecting cells as he said, "This is Sage Transformation, allowing natural energy to directly alter one's own cells to a limited extent."

"It can be said to be a shortcut to becoming a kind of immortal being in one of the three holy lands."

Hashirama Senju said, "Once it gets out of control, it's even harder to recover than if Sage Mode gets out of control."

"Reaching the level of the immortals in the three holy lands is not easy; it takes a very long time."

Hoshino Shuichi's body gradually shrank, and he laughed, "My goal is to become like a tailed beast, able to absorb natural energy into my cells to replenish my strength."

Hashirama Senju was surprised and looked at Hideaki Hoshino, saying, "Your physique is indeed very strange; perhaps you can achieve that level."

This was the first time he had ever seen someone with chakra, and someone whose Yang Release power was no less than his own.

……

Soon, Hoshino Shuichi's body returned to normal, and Yugito's dead cells were replaced, her life restarted, her eyelids twitched, and then she slowly opened her eyes.

Hashirama Senju exclaimed in amazement, "What an amazing idea! To bring the dead back to life in this way!"

Hoshino Hideichi laughed and said, "Only someone who has just died can do that."

Unfortunately, this effect is achieved through the combination of multiple techniques, and it is not a forbidden technique for bringing the dead back to life. Therefore, it is not recognized by the term tree, and the term "Medical Master" was not obtained as a result.

However, he is different from Gaara.

When he saved Yukito, Hoshino Shuichi also left the Shinbi Ancient God Seal on her.

"You were right."

After Yugito woke up, he quickly said, "Killer Bee was taken away too."

Hoshino Shuichi reassured him, "Don't worry, the Eight-Tails is best at protecting itself."

"Furthermore, sealing a tailed beast requires sealing it instantly, starting with the first tail. Since the Akatsuki doesn't have the Six-Tails, they can't seal the Eight-Tails immediately."

Yugito sensed something was wrong: "If that's the case, won't Killer Bee be controlled?"

Xingxia Xiu nodded: "That's possible."

"Let's go, let's go rescue the other Jinchūriki first."

With that, the three of them disappeared from the cave.

Given the current situation, Hoshino Shuichi speculates that Nagato and his group will most likely only seal the One-Tailed to Five-Tailed creatures first, while the Seven-Tailed and Eight-Tailed creatures beneath them will most likely be made into one of the Six Paths of Pain by Nagato.

It remains to be seen whether the Akatsuki organization can reach a consensus, at least temporarily.

Just as Hoshino Shuichi saved the two Yugitos, Uchiha Madara had already received the Akatsuki ring from the White Zetsu, and then appeared when sealing the Four-Tails.

With Madara Uchiha present, the sealing process was accelerated significantly.

On the other side, Hoshino Shuichi's shadow clone appeared next to Yagura.

However, this Jinchuriki died long ago. Although his body was lifelike, he was already in a dead state. Hoshino Shuichi also found black nails made with Yin-Yang Release on his body, which were used to conduct chakra.

Clearly, Nagato once made Yagura into a puppet just like Pain.

……

The land of birds, inside a cave.

Hoshino Shuichi revived Kurotsuchi.

Kurotsuchi opened her eyes and saw Hoshino Shuichi, both surprised and delighted: "Big brother!"

Hoshita Shuichi chuckled softly, "We meet again."

Heitu got up from the ground and looked around: "Did my older brother save me?"

"Where are Grandpa and Dad?"

"And it seems like Sun Wukong is missing."

Hoshino Shuichi explained, "The Tsuchikage and Yotsuchi are a bit busy, so I had to come and rescue you."

"As for Sun Wukong, you'll be able to see him again soon."

Heitu nodded: "I know Sun Wukong must have been captured by bad guys. He told me before that you would definitely come to save me."

Hoshita Shuichi couldn't help but touch Kurotsuchi's hair.

However, despite being very cute, he did not give the other half of the four tails inside him to Kurotsuchi.

Furthermore, his fundamental purpose in choosing to save the Jinchuriki was to further gain the trust of the Tailed Beasts.

Whether the tailed beasts completely trust him or not is not particularly important.

But if there is mutual trust, many things become simpler, and it becomes much easier for him to use the chakra of the tailed beasts.

It has nine power banks inside, which is pretty good.
