Starting from the roots of Konoha, they were the masterminds behind the scenes.

Chapter 43 The Direction of Wood Release! (Please read further, vote, and give monthly tickets!)

The Sky Ninja Village is in chaos again!

Xingxia Xiu's six wood clones, relying on the "Iron Body" state, treated the clones as his main body, making them incredibly strong and invincible.

It wasn't until one of the clones was countered by Lightning Release that the Sky Ninja found a way to win, relying on numbers and Lightning Release to take down the clones one by one.

however.

Although the six clones were gradually dealt with by the Sky Ninja, the atmosphere of terror only intensified among them.

Because they are all clones, none of them are the original body.

The heavy casualties among the Sky Ninja's sensory ninjas meant that finding the enemy's true form would be even more difficult.

Hoshino Shu became a sword of Damocles hanging over the heads of all the Sky Ninjas.

Even a Jonin like Gu Yue Da Cheng was no exception; his mind was extremely tense, and he dared not relax even for a moment.

Although they have now discovered the weakness of the assassin hiding in the darkness, the Sky Ninja Village has become blind and cannot detect the assassin lurking in the shadows.

This makes it even more frightening.

……

hospital.

Watching the wounded being brought in one after another, and feeling the turmoil outside, Yakushi Nonou's heart pounded wildly.

Onii-chan is back!

Yakushi Nonou was somewhat excited.

As expected, Onii-chan didn't really leave her here alone.

At that moment, she wished she could go home immediately and tell Xingxia Xiu the secret she had discovered.

Suppressing her inner excitement, Yakushi Nonou continued working with a serious expression.

the other side.

As the clone's memories returned, Xingxia Xiu couldn't help but sigh, "There really is no perfect ability!"

The body of steel is very strong; so far, no one has been able to directly break through its defenses.

Unfortunately, it was countered by lightning style.

While ordinary lightning techniques wouldn't pose a fatal threat to him, they could restrict his movements.

This makes it possible for his defenses to be breached.

Secondly, even a body of steel cannot ignore highly toxic substances.

The six wood clones were killed by the deadly poison.

Even though the clones' movements were restricted by Lightning Release, most of the Sky Ninja's attacks were unable to break through the Steel Body's defenses, and it was only with the help of poison that the problem was finally solved.

However, although the enemy found a way to counter him, Xingxia Xiu had already achieved his goal.

He took care of all the more skilled sensory ninjas in the Sky Ninja Clan.

"Now, enjoy the fear!"

Xingxia smiled and then formed a hand seal.

Three wooden clones emerged from his back and then disappeared into the darkness.

Night fell.

Xingxia Xiu sat cross-legged on the floor, pondering the Wood Release technique.

Previously, he had simply followed the steps, mastering each of the Wood Release techniques left behind by Hashirama Senju.

The effect was also quite good.

Especially the birth of trees that consume a lot of energy.

However, as someone with access to a great deal of information, Hoshino inevitably makes comparisons with others.

This made him realize that his mastery of Wood Release and his development and application of Hashirama's cells were still relatively rudimentary.

of course.

Generally speaking, those Wood Release techniques are enough for him to live on for a lifetime.

Unfortunately, he wasn't a native like Yamato.

Knowing the plot, he inevitably developed even greater ambitions.

The Star Show wants more.

"The essence of Wood Release is formed by the fusion of Earth Release and Water Release nature transformations, and it is activated using chakra as the source of life."

This sentence was left by Hashirama Senju.

It is the essence of Wood Release.

In the past, Xingxia Xiu thought that Senju Hashirama's Wood Release should be a Kekkei Tota, which is Earth Release + Water Release + Yang Release.

This explains why Hashirama Senju's Wood Release was so powerful, capable of easily defeating the Nine-Tails and even giving it a head pat.

But this perception is clearly wrong.

Xingxia Xiu lowered his eyes and thought to himself: "Yin Dun represents the power of the spirit, which can create form from nothing."

"Yang Release represents the power of the physical body, infusing the physical form with vitality."

"Chakra is refined from physical and spiritual power. In this sense, any kind of esoteric technique actually possesses the power of Yin and Yang, that is, creating a physical form and infusing life."

"Thus, the five basic properties of fire, water, earth, thunder, and wind came into being."

Chakra creates fire, water, soil, stone, electricity, and airflow to form wind; all of these are ways to create physical forms.

Xingxia Xiu believes that the understanding of the five basic changes must not be separated from the two attributes of Yin and Yang.

Because the essence of chakra is the combination of body and spirit, the combination of yin and yang.

Therefore, chakra is omnipotent!

Because Yin and Yang can create the world, and they can destroy the world.

"Therefore, theoretically speaking, any kind of ninjutsu can actually absorb chakra."

The Star Show came to this conclusion.

As far as he knows, the only methods that can absorb chakra are Wood Release, Rinnegan, and Kisame's Water Release.

Of course, besides Samehada, there should be other ninja tools, but Hoshino Hide doesn't quite remember them.

However, the Rinnegan, Wood Release, and Kisame's Water Release are enough to corroborate the conclusion that Hoshino Shirai is a master of the art.

It's just that it's very difficult to do.

"Wood Release creates both form and life, which is its unique characteristic."

Under the stars, he pondered and pondered.

The latest novel is first published here!

Wood Release can directly create vines and trees using chakra, or it can inject chakra into the ground as a source of life to directly stimulate existing trees.

Xingxia Xiu had used this technique before in the forest, manipulating the existing trees.

This is actually similar to manipulating water flow to create a water escape in a watery environment.

"From the perspective of the nature of chakra, everyone's chakra, whether it is pure chakra or chakra that has undergone nature transformation, possesses the power of life; it's just a matter of degree."

Hideaki Hoshino believes that the essence of chakra is supported by the theory that Wood Release can absorb the chakra of others.

The key is how to do it.

Theory is theory, and practice is practice.

"I need to try it slowly..."

Xingxiaxiu thinks.

If he can absorb the enemy's chakra using Wood Release, then he won't be far from developing a spore technique like White Zetsu.

Similarly, the White Zetsu's technique of transforming by absorbing the chakra of others would not be difficult to achieve.

Time passes little by little.

Hoshino Hide's clones roamed around the Sky Ninja Village, and the corpses of Sky Ninjas were discovered from time to time.

Major battles break out from time to time.

Even if it were anyone else, not even an elite Jonin, they wouldn't be able to make the Sky Ninja so troublesome.

Unfortunately, Hoshino is different. He has a body of steel, he has Wood Release, and he has Hashirama cells.

Meanwhile.

Outside the Sky Ninja Village, Danzo, along with Root ninjas, continued to hunt down Sky Ninjas.

The Land of Lightning, Hidden Cloud Village.

Inside the Raikage's office.

The Third Raikage frowned as he looked at the intelligence report that had just been delivered.

Konoha has taken action against the Sky Ninja Village, and a force has already been deployed along the border between the Land of the Moon and the Land of Lightning.

The Third Raikage had already learned of Konoha's actions against the Sky Ninja Village.

However, the direct initiation of war was beyond his expectations.

Previously, he did not believe that Konoha was ready for war.

The Third Raikage looked at the earthen platform: "How long can the Sky Ninja hold out?"

Tu Tai immediately replied, "I believe it will not take more than seven days."

"It is a fact that Konoha is not prepared for war; it will take them time to mobilize their forces."

The Third Raikage suddenly stood up: "Seven days is enough!"

Tsuchidae quickly said, "Third Raikage, I must say, now is not the time to start a war with Konoha."

"It would be difficult for us to gain an advantage over Konoha on our own."

The Third Raikage was very unhappy to hear this, but he also knew it was true.

Konoha is very strong, the strongest of the Five Great Ninja Villages, a fact he had to admit.

"However, we can't do nothing either, otherwise our allies might have objections."

The Third Raikage shouted.

Tu Tai said, "That's true."

"I believe our goal should be to weaken Konoha."

"We can tie down some of Konoha's power and let the Sky Ninja deplete some of Konoha's strength."

"In recent years, all the major ninja villages have been expanding their armies, and Hanzo of Amegakure is particularly eager to make a move. I believe that Konoha will be the first to lose patience, as Konoha will not allow Hanzo to achieve his ambitions."

"This is the second opportunity to weaken Konoha."

"The weaker Konoha is, the more advantageous it is for us. We can choose the right time to intervene in the war and thus better obtain the benefits we deserve."

The Third Raikage was quite satisfied with this analysis. Although he desperately wanted to lead his men south and fight Konoha right now, he held back and said, "In that case, Tsuchidai, you should lead your men south!"

"clear!"

Tu Tai immediately bowed, accepted the order, and left.
