Naruto: My setting is above yours.

Onoki didn't want to pay attention to this talkative and wicked brat.

Genma didn't mind and continued, "Does Lord Tsuchikage have a daughter, no, a granddaughter?"

"Why don't we arrange a marriage?"

"You've married your granddaughter to me, brought Iwagakure into Konoha, and supported my becoming Hokage. Now you can rest assured, right?"

Onoki's face instantly darkened, and he roared, "I have no granddaughter!"

Xuanma immediately looked regretful: "That's such a pity!"

"Why don't you encourage your son to try harder?"

"Anyway, I'm still young, I can wait."

asshole!

Onoki couldn't hold back any longer and raised his hand to unleash Dust Release.

"Lord Tsuchikage, let's talk again next time!"

Xuanma immediately left.

Back on the ground, Genma had his clone keep an eye on Onoki while he continued his training.

As for what I just mentioned, it was just something I did to amuse the old man when I was bored.

Time passed day by day.

The war was raging on.

Hanzo quickly realized Iwagakure's sincerity.

That means temporarily withdrawing troops to the border of the Land of Earth.

Afterwards, Obsidian once again led his men to the Land of Rain to secretly discuss matters with Hanzo.

……

The border area between the Land of Rain and the Land of Grass.

Danzo listened to his subordinate's report with a solemn expression.

The Iwa ninja have retreated, and it seems that Iwagakure is secretly negotiating with Hanzo.

Danzo, who loved to stir up trouble, sensed something was wrong the moment he heard this information.

It's definitely not as simple as just peace talks.

"It seems Hanzo is going to betray us!"

Danzo's gaze was chilling.

Aburame Ryoma exclaimed in surprise, "But we and the Iwa ninja are clearly in the lead right now, so why would Hanzo do this?"

Danzo said ominously, "Because the village won't allow Hanzo to occupy the Land of Grass."

"Hanzo cooperated with us for profit, and now he is cooperating with Iwagakure for profit as well."

"Yufeng Genma did indeed give Hanzo a very good suggestion, and now is the best time for Hanzo."

"There is a high chance that the Iwagakure ninja can persuade Hanzo to betray us, because if Iwagakure withdraws its troops from the Land of Wind, Sunagakure is very likely to enter the Land of River."

Ryoma Aburame realized what was happening and asked, "Lord Danzo, what should we do?"

"How can we disrupt Hanzo's cooperation with Iwagakure?"

Danzo turned to look in the direction of Amegakure and snorted coldly, "This kind of cooperation cannot be broken."

"Send a small team back to the village immediately to report this to Hiruzen. We must be prepared for the secret cooperation between Amegakure and Iwagakure."

"Moreover, the cooperation between Iwagakure and Amegakure is definitely not just to relieve their own pressure; there must be other motives involved."

We need to find out the truth about this!

Aburame Ryoma nodded and immediately leaped away to make the arrangements.

That evening.

Hiruzen Sarutobi saw the intelligence Danzo had sent back in the Hokage's office and frowned, feeling a bit of a headache.

As expected, cooperating with an ambitious person like Hanzo means bearing the risk of an explosion at any moment.

The advantage was that it helped to reduce the burden on the Iwa ninja's forces in the early stages.

Currently, it can also block sand-like structures.

However, the price of cooperation between Iwagakure and Hanzo...

Hiruzen Sarutobi fell into deep thought.

If Amegakure is to be saved, then it will probably have to back down on the issue of the Land of Grass.

But such a scenario would have even greater consequences!

Chapter 113 Chakra Refining Technique 3.0 (Please Subscribe)

The sixth day of the standoff with Onoki.

The clone continued chatting with Onoki, while Genma stayed in his room pondering the Flying Thunder God Technique, preparing to give the old man Onoki a good beating if the opportunity arose after he completed it.

However, before the operation was even completed, unexpected events and surprises arrived first.

Upon opening the [Settings], Genma took a closer look and discovered that the setting value had suddenly increased by 50 points.

"what's the situation?"

Xuanma's eyelids twitched, and he quickly checked the log.

Good heavens, Hanzo and Iwagakure have reached an agreement, and the two sides have made a ceasefire and formed an alliance!

But why were 50 points given at once?

Looking down, there was another one.

Rasa became the Fourth Kazekage, decided to negotiate with Kirigakure, and marched into the Land of Rivers.

and also.

Yahiko proposed peace talks to Hanzo, and received support from many people within Amegakure.

Looking at the last one, Genma couldn't help but shake his head: "What a hot-blooded young man!"

The situation in the Ninja World War changed frequently, but none of them were as valuable as the movements of Yahiko and his group.

"If Iwagakure were to cooperate with Amegakure at this time, it would be tantamount to betraying their friend, Kusagakure."

"No, it should be that they betrayed the Grass Ninja Village!"

Genma sighed, realizing with just a moment's thought that he had discerned Iwagakure's purpose.

They're planning to use the Land of Grass as a route to attack the Land of Fire!

Was the Battle of Kannabi Bridge unavoidable?

However, it remains to be seen whether Madara Uchiha had his eye on Obito Uchiha very early on.

He already gave the summoning talisman to Kakashi and the others. If it happens again... there might be a surprise.

Suppressing his many thoughts, Xuanma began to modify the settings.

With a setting value of 194 points, modifying the Chakra Refining Technique is more than enough!

Chakra Refining Technique 3.0: Based on Chakra Refining Technique 2.0, it absorbs natural energy to nourish the body.

The modification is confirmed, and the 150-point setting has disappeared.

Xuanma immediately absorbed the natural energy from the outside world into its body.

Instantly, he felt his cells absorb the natural energy flowing into his body like a sponge.

Xuanma stopped eating when he was full and stuffed, and used his primordial spirit to control his physical body and feel the changes in it.

The cells are abnormally active, much more so than when they are eating to replenish their energy.

"This level of activity is no less than when I use Lightning Release to activate cells at full power, and it's no less than when I use Yang Release to activate cells."

Although this horizontal comparison is not accurate enough, because the three are still somewhat different in their inherent activation.

Lightning Release activates cells, enhancing strength, explosiveness, and reaction speed, while Yang Release primarily focuses on self-healing.

Now, it's all-encompassing.

However, as he continued to digest, Xuanma also sensed that the activity of the cells was gradually decreasing.

"At this rate of decline, it should return to normal in about 2 hours, which should also be the time it takes for cells to completely digest this natural energy."

Xuanma silently made some calculations.

Then he quietly felt the subtle process of cells digesting and breaking down natural energy, and felt his physical strength returning.

Two hours later, the cell activity had indeed returned to normal.

"Well, the increase in stamina is basically negligible, but there is indeed a tiny bit."

Normally, one cannot perceive it at all, and the evaluation of chakra levels in the [setting book] has not changed. However, the primordial spirit controls the body with exquisite precision, and can sense these subtle changes.

Genma then refined chakra.

"The quality of the chakra has not changed significantly, and it is not Sage Chakra."

"So, it really requires a gradual, subtle process of becoming immortal?"

Xuanma wasn't disappointed; it was within his expectations.

At least for now, once he's exhausted, he can quickly replenish his strength with natural energy.

In reality, under the current circumstances, unless a protracted battle ensues, he will generally not use his physical strength to fight.

They all directly activate Sage Mode, using their spiritual power to refine natural energy into Sage Chakra for combat.

At this crucial stage of growth, Xuanma certainly cannot be allowed to push himself too hard.

"Next, let's see if natural energy can be digested by the primordial spirit..."

Xuanma lowered his eyes, this time absorbing natural energy with his primordial spirit.
