Naruto: Traveling Through Time Starting with Seizing the Dragon Vein

The entire valley instantly turned into a brutal meat grinder as the Senju clan clashed with the arriving Uchiha clansmen.

On the other side of the battlefield, because Madara's attention was entirely focused on Hashirama, the Nine-Tails, which was being used as a summoning beast, finally had a moment to catch its breath.

In an instant, it had an idea.

Staying here any longer is not a solution; it must escape.

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"

Four figures instantly landed around the Nine-Tails, surrounding it.

It was Uchiha Tsuki, Hikaru, Namikaze Minato, and Uzumaki Kushina, whose red hair was dancing wildly.

"Nine-Tails, your power is too great. We cannot let you leave this place."

Yue drew her straight sword and looked at the Minato couple.

"Minato, Kushina, we can't get involved in the battle between those two monsters, but this fox is an 'old acquaintance' of yours."

Yue's voice carried a hint of amusement, "When Clan Chief Hashirama said 'this thing can kill you,' I bet you were all seething with anger, weren't you?"

Kushina's eyes were slightly red, but they burned with an unprecedented ferocious fighting spirit.

She stared at the fox spirit before her, the one who, a month ago, had pierced her and her husband's chests with its claws, separating her from her newborn son, Naruto, by the line of life and death. Her fists clenched so tightly they cracked.

"You stinky fox..."

Kushina gritted her teeth and raised her head. Behind her, dozens of thick, dazzling golden chakra chains shot out!

"Last time, I was protecting Naruto when you managed to sneak up on me!"

"This time... I'm going to peel this orange peel off you and tie it into a knot that's impossible to untie!!!"

"Diamond Lockdown!!!"

Minato Namikaze also drew his specially made three-pronged kunai from his ninja tool pouch. His usual gentleness was gone from his azure eyes, replaced by the absolute coldness of the Fourth Hokage.

His hands left afterimages in the air.

"Kushina, you take the lead in attacking, I'll cut off its retreat."

Seeing the overwhelming golden chains sweeping in, the Nine-Tailed Fox, which had been roaring, suddenly shivered.

Damn it! How come this red-haired woman's chains are even more ferocious than those of the Vortex Clan in its memory?!

"Guang, let's not go up for now and wait for an opportunity."

Uchiha Yue's right Sharingan locked onto the Nine-Tails' chakra node. Although he couldn't kill the Nine-Tails here, why not take advantage of the opportunity to steal some more chakra?

After all, he only has one scroll of Nine-Tails chakra at hand right now.

"clear."

As for what Yue is doing? They don't need to lift a finger to deal with the Nine-Tails.

He was also watching the battle between Madara and Hashirama, who were far away from the battlefield to avoid hurting their clansmen.

That terrifying, unparalleled clash of chakra could still be felt even from this distance.

Is this the power of a super-shadow level?

Chapter 56 Research on the Battle of Hashirama and Madara

Three battlefields erupted simultaneously in the mountains bordering the Land of Fire.

On one side, there was the fateful duel between Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha, a duel that resembled the destruction of the world by gods;

On one side, there was a fierce battle between Tobirama and countless members of the Thousand Hands clan against the Uchiha clan ninjas.

On the last side, Minato Namikaze and his wife, along with Uchiha Tsuki and Hikaru, faced off against the Nine-Tailed Fox, who was being used as a summoning beast.

"boom--!"

Amidst a tremendous roar, the Nine-Tails' massive body was pinned to the rock wall by dozens of thick, golden chakra chains.

Kushina Uzumaki's red hair danced like flames in a raging storm, her hands tightly maintaining the Adamantine Sealing Mark.

She didn't use any techniques beyond the comprehension of this era; she simply unleashed her rage through the purest sealing instincts of the Uzumaki clan.

"Roar!!!"

The Nine-Tails struggled frantically, but the golden chains were not only unbreakable, but also tightly suppressed the flow of chakra within its body.

Its scarlet fox eyes were filled with resentment. It couldn't understand why, in this era, besides that woman Mito Uzumaki, there was another red-haired monster who could use the Adamantine Lock to such a perverse degree!

"Kushina, I'll cut off its chakra convergence!"

Minato Namikaze ultimately had some reservations about time travel altering fate, and didn't dare use the Flying Thunder God Technique in front of the Second Hokage.

In order not to reveal his ninjutsu that was ahead of its time, he could only hold a trident kunai and rely on his already terrifying basic Body Flicker Technique to transform into a golden lightning bolt.

"Whoosh!"

Minato's figure moved at high speed around the Nine-Tails' massive body. Each time a kunai fell, it pierced the weak points of the Nine-Tails' chakra meridians with extreme precision, interrupting its attempt to condense the Tailed Beast Ball.

On the outskirts of the battlefield, Uchiha Gekko did not directly intervene in this "revenge war".

Yue stood atop a giant tree that had not yet been destroyed, arms crossed over her chest, the three tomoe in her left eye spinning wildly, even faintly revealing the outline of a kaleidoscope.

His attention wasn't on the Nine-Tails being beaten up at all; instead, he was staring intently at the two earth-shattering figures, one red and one blue, in the distance.

"Light, look closely."

The moon's voice was filled with fervor, like that of a scholar who had seen the ultimate truth of the world.

"That is the pinnacle of power in the ninja world, the art of using chakra to its fullest potential."

"A battle between the ultimate Yin Release and the ultimate Yang Release."

On the distant battlefield, Madara Uchiha stood laughing wildly inside his hundred-meter-tall, deep blue, complete Susanoo. With a single swing of his chakra sword, he leveled a mountain.

Meanwhile, Hashirama Senju clasped his hands together, and the ground beneath his feet surged wildly. A wooden dragon, even larger than Susanoo, rose from the ground and tightly wrapped around Susanoo's giant sword.

"Madara's Susanoo... is too perfect. It's on a completely different level from the Susanoo formed by a regular Mangekyou Sharingan."

Yue squinted, her brain rapidly analyzing every detail of chakra flow she caught in her line of sight.

"My previous deduction about kaleidoscopes should be correct."

Yue murmured to herself, "An ordinary Mangekyou Sharingan is like a water bottle with a big hole in the bottom, filled with extremely high-quality 'pure water' that cannot be replenished through regular rest. Once used, the pure water will be lost until it dries up and blindness occurs."

"My 'Ming Seal' is an external water reservoir. I forcibly fill it with 'ordinary water' that I produce during my rest. Although it works, the water is not pure and cannot unleash the full power of the Mangekyou Sharingan."

Yue stared intently at Madara's Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan, which radiated an eerie light.

"But Madara's eyes are different. The Eternal Kaleidoscope means that his pupil power not only shows no signs of diminishing, but is as deep and boundless as the sea, endlessly regenerating."

The condition for the formation of the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan is the fusion of one's own Mangekyou Sharingan with that of a close relative.

A flash of inspiration struck Yue, and a logical conjecture gradually took shape.

If we compare a kaleidoscope to a broken bottle, then the eyes of our closest loved ones are the 'patch' that has the exact same frequency and material!

When two pairs of eyes from the same source merge, they not only repair the 'flaw', but also resonate due to their extremely similar chakra wavebands, causing a qualitative change in the bottle's material, making it a perfect container that can automatically purify and regenerate eye power!

"Since the principle is 'patching vulnerabilities from the same source,' then... does that mean that besides exchanging one's loved one's eyes, there are other ways to achieve this effect?"

"If I can use Yin Release to simulate the missing chakra waveband of my Mangekyou Sharingan on a mental level, and then use Yang Release to create an eyeball that can accommodate this waveband, is it possible to forcibly complete this 'repair' process without sacrificing my loved ones?"

Thinking about this, Yue couldn't help but continue pondering.

But then another question arises: how do you know what chakra wave band your Mangekyou Sharingan is missing?

Does Indra's chakra also play a role in this?

After all, the Eternal Kaleidoscope only appears in two people in the original story, and both of them are reincarnations of Indra, so it's hard not to consider the connection between them.

Yue touched her chin.

There are no experiments available yet, so it cannot be confirmed.

As for how to obtain the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan, it's still hard to say.

"Moon, that Wood Release from Hashirama Senju... it's very strange."

Hikari Uchiha, standing to the side, also activated her Sharingan. She didn't have the mindset of a research fanatic like Yue, but as a top-tier "weapon," she had an extremely keen intuition about the essence of power.

"His ninjutsu is incredibly powerful; the amount of chakra he releases shouldn't be able to achieve such an effect."

“You’re right, Light, that’s also why I came to this battlefield.”

Yue shifted her gaze from Madara's Susanoo to Hashirama Senju.

“I was once enlightened by Tobirama Senju by the stream: Yang Release is what gives life to chakra.”

Based on what he had watched in his previous life in the Naruto anime, another hypothesis formed in Yue's mind.

Hashirama, is he always sacrificing his own life for damage in every battle?

Yue has always had a question: Yang Release imbues ninjutsu with life force, thereby making it extremely powerful.

So the question is, where does Hashirama's life force come from?

Is it the chakra of Ashura's reincarnation?

Then why does Naruto still need to constantly study ninjutsu? His ninjutsu isn't much stronger than other ninjas who use the same techniques.

Given the same conditions, why is there such a big difference between the ninjutsu released by Naruto and Hashirama?

The answer is most likely Hashirama himself, as well as the Senju clan's Yang Release.

simply put.

The ultimate life force of the Sage Body brought by Ashura's chakra was able to be "exploded" by Hashirama.

Naruto, on the other hand, could only reveal his incredibly powerful health bar when he was being passively attacked.

Chapter 57 Four Wins

Although vitality can theoretically be replenished through eating, resting, and the unique physique of the Senju clan.

However, this overdraft has its limits. Once this depletion exceeds the input of Ashura chakra and damages one's own life essence, then one is truly exhausted and out of luck.

This also explains why, shortly after the originally planned battle at the Valley of the End, the God of Ninjas, who was in his prime and possessed extremely strong regenerative abilities, died mysteriously.
