Naruto: Traveling Through Time Starting with Seizing the Dragon Vein

However, the time required for the ocean to change into mulberry fields is too long, and the moon is not immortal, so I don't want to waste time on observation.

Speeding up...skipping the plot is what he wants.

Yue laughed, the Ming seal between her brows beginning to throb with pain from the overload. "The spacetime tunnel's rejection reaction is reaching its limit! Let's go!!!"

Without any hesitation, the four of them leaped into the swirling, purplish-black dragon vein vortex.

"BOOM—!!!"

As they leaped in, the purple pillar of light instantly collapsed inward, eventually turning into a black dot and disappearing into the air of the Warring States period.

Only the howling wind remained in the canyon, as if they had never been there.

Chapter 77 Independent Chakra Individuals

"It's broken..."

The shadow clone, Moon, murmured to itself in its heart.

In that one-thousandth of a second, he clearly felt that the invisible chakra spiritual connection between himself and his main body, which was dozens of miles away in the canyon, broke with a crisp sound.

He knew that this meant his true form had successfully passed through the spacetime vortex of the Dragon Vein, completely leaving the Warring States period of the founding year of Konoha and heading to the main timeline.

Logically speaking, the underlying logic of the Shadow Clone Technique is that the main body divides the chakra evenly and shapes it with mental power.

Once the original body dies or disappears, the shadow clone loses its source of chakra and mental anchor, and will instantly turn into a wisp of white smoke and dissipate, sending its memories back to nothingness.

However, at this moment, Yue lowered her head, looked at her still solid hands, and felt the chakra flowing steadily within her body, even though it was no longer replenished by her physical body.

He did not disappear.

The Shadow Clone Moon's brain, possessing the same intelligence as the original body, began to operate at an almost insane speed, analyzing its current state of existence.

"An independently existing chakra entity?"

In this ninja world, chakra is never just a consumable energy source. When its quality and spiritual will (Yin Release) reach a certain critical point, it can become a kind of "life" in itself.

Like the legendary nine tailed beasts, they do not have real flesh and blood bodies. In essence, they are a huge collection of chakra that was given form and will by the Sage of Six Paths using the "Yin-Yang Release".

Like Indra and Asura over thousands of years, their physical bodies had long since decayed in the dust of the early Warring States period, but their deeply ingrained chakra could transform into independent individuals, constantly seeking hosts to reincarnate in the long river of fate.

Even the Sage of Six Paths, who was high above and watched over the ninja world from his Pure Land, didn't he also achieve immortality in another sense through a pure "chakra individual" form?

Therefore, based on the state of his shadow clone, could we say that...

As long as the purity of the chakra is high enough, and as long as the mental will (Yin Release) used for shaping is strong enough, any chakra can be separated from its mother and become a truly existing individual.

Of course, Yang Release must have also exerted its power, after all, the outer "shell" was made from the Yang Release chakra of his main body.

He avoided becoming a rootless chakra group, similar to the Edo Tensei summoning ritual.

"However, without the passive recovery of chakra from the original body, I am now like a high-energy battery without a charging cable. Although the capacity is large, it is reduced little by little when used, until it is eventually exhausted and dissipated."

Shadow Clone Moon stroked his chin, pondering to himself.

"If I want to survive in this era for a long time, and even have the power to interfere with the world, I must find an 'external power source' that can continuously replenish my chakra."

Absorbing chakra from ordinary people is too slow and the quality is inconsistent;

However, the natural energy of Sage Chakra is too violent, and he cannot afford to take that risk.

A huge, grumpy fox with nine tails flashed through Yue's mind.

"The chakra of the tailed beasts is itself a chakra life form, and it shares the same origin as my current essence."

If I could find a way to form a special contract with a tailed beast, or simply 'parasitize' the tailed beast's chakra circuits, I could not only perfectly solve the problems of rejection and energy consumption, but also gain almost unlimited endurance..."

This is definitely a top-level scientific research topic worthy of in-depth study!

Thinking of this, Yue couldn't help but smile with a pleasant curve.

In fact, at the moment he realized he had become an independent individual, a thought flashed through his mind:

If the Shadow Clone Technique is actively dispelled now, will the energy carrying memories and chakra from the late Warring States period directly cross the barrier of time and space and be instantly transmitted to the mind of the original body in the future?

That would be an extremely romantic and cross-dimensional information transmission.

But after only half a second of consideration, he abandoned the tempting idea.

This project is far inferior to the previous top-level projects.

Moreover, before leaving, the original body instructed Minato Namikaze to place the script scrolls containing the "historical trends and tragedies of the next few decades" into the hands of Tobirama Senju and Madara Uchiha, two unparalleled geniuses capable of overturning the entire ninja world's chessboard!

The shadow clone Yue raised her head and looked in the direction where Konoha Village was about to be established, her eyes gleaming with an incomparably fervent anticipation.

"It would be too boring if I just disappeared like that, leaving this mess for them."

He decided to stay.

"I'm really looking forward to it, the real body..."

The shadow clone Yue laughed silently in her heart; it was a tacit understanding and a game of wits that transcended time and space.

"When you open the gates of time and space again someday in the future and return to this time and space... or when I transmit information to that time and space... you will find out what a magnificent and amazing 'new world' I have prepared for you."

Just as Yue was immersed in thinking about this grand vision and plan.

"Hey, Uchiha Tsukuyomi, what are you standing there for?"

A cold voice, tinged with impatience and urging, rudely interrupted Yue's thoughts.

Yue came to her senses.

He realized that he had followed Tobirama Senju into a secluded tent at a Senju outpost camp nearby.

In the very center of the tent stood a huge blackboard used for tactical simulations.

At this moment, Tobirama Senju was holding half a white stone pencil in his hand, and the blackboard was densely covered with complex ninjutsu formulas about "soul anchor points," "summoning space mediums," and "reconstruction of impure earth dust."

The future Second Hokage, the greatest master of forbidden techniques in the ninja world, was frowning at this moment, staring intently at a chakra conflict point marked with many circles on the blackboard with his inquisitive and rational blue eyes.

Tobirama tapped the blackboard hard with his slate pencil, making a crisp "tap tap tap" sound.

"The issue of estimating the mental resistance after the soul is separated from the body in 'Impure World Reincarnation' is still unresolved."

“I can look at that strange scroll that Minato Namikaze sent later, but where exactly is the logical loop of the reverse chakra transmission in your proposed ‘alternate dimension recording’ idea? You’re not leaving this tent until you’ve figured that out for me today.”

Looking at the forbidden techniques on the blackboard—techniques so advanced they could drive an ordinary ninja mad with just a glance—and then at Tobirama Senju, who exuded the aura of a "research maniac," he was struck by the sheer volume of information.

The shadow clone Yue was slightly taken aback. Then, all the scheming on his face disappeared, replaced by an extremely confident smile.

Ah!

That arrogant red-eyed white-haired fellow couldn't resist my charm.

Chapter 78 The Divine Will Plan

Boom!!!

Accompanied by a violent spatial distortion and a surge of purplish-black chakra, a blinding beam of light slammed onto the hard metal floor inside the deepest core of Loulan.

As the purple light receded like a tide, four figures staggered and fell to the ground.

"Cough cough... Huff..."

Uchiha Yue knelt on one knee, panting heavily, but he didn't care about that at all. The moment he landed, his left eye snapped open, and he used the Eightfold Sense to keenly sense the area around Minato and Kushina.

He needed to determine whether the lofty "world correction force" would directly unleash divine punishment because these two people who should have died had escaped their fate.

one second.

two seconds.

Ten seconds passed.

No lightning struck, no space collapsed, and the "world's malice" that had clung to them like a malignant tumor on the night of the Nine-Tailed Fox now vanished completely, like a blind person who had lost their target.

Everything was as silent and peaceful as usual.

Beneath the mask, a smug, confident smile slowly crept onto Uchiha Yue's lips.

Many of the underlying rules regarding "corrective power" have been successfully verified at this moment!

The system has identified the Watergate couple as "discarded files" that have been completely deleted.

"Then, the 'Heaven's Will Project' can officially begin."

Yue slowly stood up, looking down at the Minato couple. Let's start with the two of them.

At this moment, Minato Namikaze silently stood guard beside Kushina Uzumaki, cautiously looking around.

The place is filled with the strong smell of engine oil, the roar of gears turning, and the cyberpunk-style metal towers and pipes.

A look of utter astonishment flashed across Minato's deep blue eyes.

"Is this... Loulan?"

He had carried out classified missions here, and even fought with Uchiha Tsuki here.

But in his memory, although Loulan was prosperous, it never had such a sense of oppression filled with the industrial atmosphere and steel order of a cross era!

How long has it been?

One year? Two years?

The city looks like it has been completely rebuilt!

"Welcome to my territory, Fourth Hokage."

Yue calmed the myriad thoughts in her mind and interrupted Minato's shock.

"However, before arranging your rooms, for the safety of Loulan and for the sake of our peaceful cooperation, I need to show you both... the 'little insurance' I previously placed for you."

Yue's voice turned cold. He turned his head and looked at Guang: "Guang, eight thousand spears."

Without any hesitation, the Mangekyou Sharingan in the light eye instantly emitted an eerie red light.

"Buzz!"

Minato and Kushina felt a sudden stab deep into their brains.

They were horrified to realize that their chakra had vanished in an instant.

"What did you do?!"
