Starting with Wood Release, he survives in Konoha Hospital and becomes a big shot.

However, when he tried to pull his hand away, he found that Yao Xing's very delicate little hand was like a pair of pliers, firmly clamping his right hand, making it impossible for him to pull it out.

"You..." The Root ninja looked at Yakusei in surprise, seemingly still unaware of what had happened.

When Yao Xingji saw the Root ninja's gaze, he once again revealed a harmless smile.

"Wood Release: Tree Binding for Eternal Burial!"

Suddenly, a large number of vines grew from the ground and wrapped around the Root Ninja. At the same time, the vines grew rapidly and transformed into a large tree in the blink of an eye, binding the Root Ninja firmly within the tree and making him unable to move an inch.

"not good!"

The expression on the face beneath the Root ninja mask changed drastically, but it was too late. Yakusei had already activated his Wood Release, giving him no time to react and immobilizing him in place.

"Danzo sent you to perform mind-reading on me?"

Yao Xingji slowly stood up from the ground, patted the dirt off his body, tilted his head and asked, like a curious child.

"Wood Release: Secret Technique!!! Who's here? Ming Shi Yin?"

The moment Wood Release appeared, the Root ninjas' first reaction was that Ming Shiyin had arrived, because so far, the only person they knew who could use Wood Release was that mysterious man.

However, there was no one around except for Yao Xingji in front of him.

In that instant, a completely impractical and absurd idea popped into his head.

This wood-style ninjutsu was performed by this three-year-old child.

This is fucking outrageous!

Seemingly sensing the Root ninja's thoughts, Yakusei smiled and said, "There's no one else here, only me!"

Immediately, red and blue light intertwined in Yao Xingji's hand as he took out the greatsword Samehada, which he had stored in his mysterious space.

The Root ninja's pupils suddenly contracted as he stared at the deep blue, barbed sword, his expression turning extremely grim.

What he found even more absurd was that Yao Xingji so easily picked up the sword, which was nearly twice his height, and held it against his throat. Then, to his horror, he discovered that a mouth had appeared at the tip of the sword. The next moment, his chakra was continuously extracted and devoured by the strange sword.

"Besides letting you read my memories, did Danzo give you any other orders?" Yao Xingji asked.

The Root ninja was soaked in cold sweat, but he didn't say a word.

It wasn't that he didn't want to talk about it, but rather that he couldn't reveal anything related to Danzo.

"The Seal of Eradicating the Root of Tongue Disaster!" Yao Xing nodded knowingly and did not ask any further questions.

"You can't escape. The Konoha ninjas will be here soon," the Root ninja said to Yakusei.

He didn't understand why a three-year-old child possessed such great strength, but now that Yao Xingji had been exposed, he would be pursued by countless Konoha ninjas.

"Why would I run away?" Yao Xingji smiled, looking at the Root ninja as if he were a fool.

"you……"

At that moment, the Root ninja suddenly remembered that the child in front of him was Lady Tsunade's disciple. If his identity was not exposed, Konoha would never suspect him.

“But you’re right, the Konoha ninjas are indeed arriving soon. Let’s slow them down so we can have some fun,” Yao Xingji said.

As soon as he finished speaking, he used the Shadow Clone Technique to create three clones, and simultaneously granted all three clones a blue buff.

"Hidden Mist Technique!"

The three clones simultaneously began casting the Mist Concealment Technique. With the blue buff, the mist began to spread again, even more terrifying than the Mist Concealment Technique cast by the previous dozen or so Mist Concealment Spies.

Because the Star Shadow Clone Technique with the blue buff is equivalent to having unlimited chakra for a short period of time, and the concentration of the Hidden Mist Technique depends on the amount of chakra. As long as the amount is large enough, the density and coverage of the mist can expand indefinitely.

In just a few breaths, the surroundings were once again enveloped in a terrifying thick fog, which began to spread rapidly in all directions, covering the direction of Konoha.

"Since you can't tell me, then I'll wait until I get the mind-reading technique and then I'll personally check your memories."

Yao Xingji laughed.

"what are you up to?"

The face beneath the Root ninja mask was filled with terror; this three-year-old child was nothing short of a demon.

puff...

The branch suddenly pierced through and embedded itself in the Root Ninja's arm. His painful screams were choked in his throat by the vines, and he could not make a sound.

The Eye of Salvation is activated.

In Yao Xingji's eyes, the wounds on the Root ninja's arms became extremely clear, and he could even see the damaged muscles and blood vessels. Every detail of the wounds was clearly reflected in Yao Xingji's mind.

Yao Xingji, who could only rely on the palm immortal technique for rough treatment, saw at this moment how to treat more precisely, which could at least double the efficiency.

After a moment of contemplation, Yao Xingji swung his right hand, and a green light flashed. A number, "1," appeared above the heads of the Root ninjas, visible only to Yao Xingji himself.

This is Bian Que's second skill, "Diagnosis of Good and Evil," which can apply marks to both enemies and allies, stacking up to five times. For enemies, this is a deadly poison; for allies, it's a life-restoring elixir. The distinction between allies and enemies rests entirely in Yao Xingji's hands.

At this moment, the Root ninjas are receiving the healing effect of the Good and Evil Diagnosis.

As Yao Xingji continued to use Bian Que's second skill, the marks on the Root ninja quickly stacked to five layers, and the wound on his arm began to heal rapidly.

------------

Chapter Sixty: Repeatedly Jumping Around

Before long, thanks to Bian Que's second skill, the wound on the Root ninja's arm was completely healed.

[Healing ninja complete, increased own chakra by 5%!]

[Acquired the secret technique—Mind Transfer!]

[Gain the power to create the Azure!]

Upon seeing the reward given by the Heart of the Universe in his mind, Yao Xingji's expression shifted slightly.

"The secret technique of the Mountain Clan, the Mind Transfer Technique, unfortunately it's not very useful to me!" Yao Xing shook his head in disappointment.

This ninjutsu allows the user's mind to directly invade the opponent's brain, putting the enemy into a state of sleep and achieving a "use the enemy for your own purposes" effect for a short period. However, it has significant limitations; if the enemy is injured, it will backfire on the user. It is a decent auxiliary secret technique, but Yao Xingji can hardly use it.

The Root ninjas had no idea what Yakusei was doing, but the act of injuring him and then healing him seemed very strange.

Is it to torture me?

The moment this thought crossed their minds, the Root ninjas turned pale again.

Just then, he noticed that Yao Xingji was looking at him again, with a harmless smile on his face.

But to the Root ninjas, that smile was more demonic than a demon's.

Swish!

Yao Xingji waved his right hand again, and the green light reappeared.

This wasn't the first time the Root ninja had seen this kind of light. In the brief moment just now, he had already learned that it was a very special healing ninjutsu from Yakusei, with excellent recovery effects.

But now that his arm injury has healed, why does he need to continue treatment?

The moment the question arose, the Root ninja's face twisted in shock.

At that moment, he felt intense, corrosive pain throughout his body, as if he were being immersed in highly corrosive venom. His entire body was in pain from the inside out.

The Root ninja immediately realized that he had been poisoned!

And it's a very dangerous toxin!

But why is this happening?

When did Yao Xingji poison him? He didn't see him do it at all!

Little did he know that the light that had just healed him could be transformed from a spiritual medicine into a poison with just a thought from Yao Xingji, seamlessly connecting the effects, and even directly converting the five-layer healing effect into five-layer poison.

"Good medicine tastes bitter!" Yao Xing said very softly.

The toxins were rapidly destroying the Root ninja's body. Under Yakusei's savior's gaze, he could clearly see the green toxins enter the man's bloodstream, circulate throughout his body, reach his internal organs, and then relentlessly destroy the cells within. He saw the liver failing, the muscles corroding; everything seemed irreversibly being destroyed…

The Root ninja's consciousness was already blurred. His chakra had been drained by the Samehada sword, his body was bound by the Tree Binding Burial, and his body was being corroded by poison. Death was imminent.

At that moment, he deeply regretted accepting Danzo's order.

As a member of the mountain clan, he could have had a bright future, but Danzo tricked him into joining Root, leading to his death at the hands of a three-year-old child. He…

Suddenly, the excruciating pain disappeared, and a tingling, comfortable feeling spread throughout his body. His corroded flesh began to recover rapidly, and the toxins that had seeped into his body transformed into a healing elixir, continuously restoring his health.

"what happened?"

The Root ninja was bewildered. He had prepared himself for death, so how did he come back to life?

Is there any way I can still save him?

However, when he saw the calm expression on Yao Xingji's face, his heart sank to the bottom once again.

This thing is really torturing me, making me teeter on the edge of death repeatedly!!!

This child is a devil!

At the same time, Yao Xingji didn't actually think that much about it.

He was just trying out his ideas and grinding for healing.

The low benefit of repeatedly treating one person was likely because their injuries were relatively minor. Wouldn't the reward be better if more serious injuries were treated?

Moreover, this time, Yao Xingji's goal was very clear: he wanted to learn the mind-reading ability from this mountain tribe.

Before long, the treatment was completed, and the Heart of the Universe indeed gave a reward.

[Healing ninja complete, increased own chakra by 4%!]

[Obtain the secret technique—Bird Helmet!]

[Gain the power to create the Azure!]

"Bird Kabuto? What kind of ninjutsu is that?" Yao Xingji was taken aback.

The amount of chakra given was a little less than expected, but the ninjutsu he received was somewhat puzzling. It didn't seem to be a secret technique of the Yamanaka clan that he knew. If he hadn't received the reward, he wouldn't even have known that such a ninjutsu existed in Naruto.

However, Yao Xingji didn't dwell on it. Since it wasn't mind reading, he would just keep grinding. He would use mind reading to look at the ninja's memories later and then he would understand the purpose of this ninjutsu.

Thus, a new round of poison attacks began.

the other side.

Kakashi and the others had rested after the fog dissipated, but just as they were about to search for the missing Yakusei and Kurenai, an even denser fog spread over.

"Damn it, how many people did Kirigakure send? Are they planning to attack Konoha directly?" Obito Uchiha cursed.

The others' expressions also turned grim, because this fog was even thicker than the last one, and it was spreading extremely fast. In just one or two breaths, they were already surrounded by thick fog where they couldn't see their own hands.
