SWNOVELXO Chapter 139: Three Benevolent People, It Is Difficult To Practice Immortality
A rocky jungle is not a real jungle.
Stone pillars rise from the ground like giant trees growing toward the sky.
Therefore, this place was named the Rock Jungle.
These stone pillars range from four to five meters short to dozens of meters high. Seen from a distance, they appear to be of varying heights and densely packed.
What's even stranger is that there is geothermal heat here, creating many hot springs.
The hot spring water evaporates to form fog, and the fog is lingering. Although it is not thick, it blocks the view to a large extent.
If people enter here, it will be like entering a maze, and it is difficult to distinguish the direction.
"Water Style. Thousand Killings of Water Soaring."
In the mist, a low shout sounded, followed by several screams.
When I looked closer, I saw three Rock Shinobi Village Genin, covered in thousands of books, lying on the ground unconscious.
There were three people standing beside him, Naruto, Shiro, and Hinata.
"Brother Bai, are they all okay?" Naruto asked.
Bai nodded: "Don't worry, they are just unconscious and their lives are not in danger."
Hinata lowered her head and whispered: "Although...although I don't want to kill anyone, Naruto-kun, Haku-kun...Mizuki-sama told us not to hold back when we meet Rock Shinobi."
"Isn't it bad if we are like this now?"
"If Mizuki-sama finds out, will he blame us for being too merciful?"
"My father taught me before that as a ninja, you must never be merciful to your enemies..."
Her voice was very soft and timid.
Naruto smiled awkwardly and said, "It should be...it's okay. Killing people, isn't it good?"
"They are just contestants taking the exam. They have no grudge against us. Just knock them unconscious and take away the scrolls."
Bai Ya said: "Don't worry, Mizuki-sama is also very kind and won't blame us."
"He saved those Jinchūriki from death!"
The three of them all smiled after a discussion. I feel completely relieved about whether or not to kill Rock Shinobi.
Naruto stepped forward and fumbled around and found a scroll.
"What a pity. It turned out to be the Scroll of Heaven. Just like our scroll, we have to find someone else to capture it."
"Hinata, look to see if there is anyone else nearby."
Hinata activated her Byakugan and quickly spotted the others.
"There's a group of Sand Shinobi over there, less than a kilometer away."
Having determined their target, the three of them left and quickly disappeared into the mist.
After the three people left, Mizuki emerged from the ground, looked at the direction in which the three people left, shook his head and sighed.
"Hey, these three, each one is more kind than the other."
Naruto is the reincarnation of Ashura and has a kind nature. Until the finale of the anime, Naruto never killed anyone.
Even Kakuzu was killed by Kakashi's last hit.
The same goes for Shiro, he never kills people, and even if he doesn't kill anyone, there's nothing he can do about it.
Hinata's weak character also stems from the kindness in her heart.
To be honest, these three are really not suitable to be ninjas.
"Forget it, let them be." Mizuki was helpless.
The situation is easy to change, but the nature is hard to change. With their character, it is difficult to change.
After looking at the three unconscious Rock Shinobi on the ground, Mizuki turned and left.
Although Mizuki is currently very hostile to Rock Shinobi Village, they are just three Genin brats, so there is no need to vent his anger on them.
"Naruto and the others, I don't need to worry about anything."
Mizuki also went to see Gaara.
Compared to the three here, Gaara and the others are not so kind.
Neji is a troubled boy, he kills people without mercy, Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms, one palm per child.
Nobita was born an orphan and was originally kind-hearted. But after being kidnapped by Danzo, he clearly realized the cruelty of the ninja world, and the kindness in his heart completely shrank.
Gaara, in particular, is very murderous. Not only Rock Shinobi, he also kills Genin from other villages when he meets them.
Mizuki was originally worried about Nobita, but now that Nobita has the magic Chakra in his body and his strength has skyrocketed, it is no longer a big problem.
"Next, try absorbing the power of nature!"
The magic Chakra provided by Toad Fairy Brew is only a one-time use after all.
The safest thing is to master Sage Mode.
The practice of Sage Mode is indeed difficult, but the principle is very simple.
Completely integrated into nature, entering absolute silence from the outside to the inside, just like death.
In this way, the self and the outside world will be perfectly integrated naturally, and the power of nature will gather together.
It is too difficult to achieve this level of integration into nature.
Mount Myōboku uses toad oil to help ninjas absorb the power of nature.
And it is very dangerous. If you are not careful, your body will turn into frogs or even become petrified due to excessive absorption of natural power.
Although Mizuki is not worried about petrification, he does not have toad oil.
“Although I forgot to bring the toad oil from Mount Myōboku, I used Liushen toilet water yesterday and I could clearly ‘see’ the natural energy.”
"I believe that with the help of Liushen Floral Water and Toad Fairy Brew, I will be able to cultivate Sage Mode."
Mizuki used Flying Thunder God and came to a quiet forest.
He took out Liushen toilet water, opened the lid and smelled it.
In an instant, his whole brain was refreshed and his thinking became extremely clear.
His mental power surged sixfold, even overflowing from his body.
Although he had his eyes closed, he could "see" the tiny things around him with the mental power overflowing from his body.
Dust in the air, bacteria in the soil under your feet, fluff on bacteria...
It's like arriving in another world.
He collected his mind and focused on natural energy. He wrapped a ray of natural energy with his mental power and pulled it back into his body.
He also controls some ordinary Chakra in the body and merges with this ray of natural energy.
When the two come into contact, they naturally merge together.
But the next moment, Mizuki frowned.
Failed again!
This time there was too much normal Chakra, and the new fused Chakra was very unstable and dissipated automatically.
Undeterred, he once again controlled a ray of natural energy to enter his body and continued to try.
In just 10 seconds, Mizuki tried 4 times.
But none of them were successful.
"It's really difficult!" Mizuki opened his eyes and breathed a sigh of relief.
The effect of Liushen toilet water has ended and I can only try again tomorrow.
"Although the effect of Liushen toilet water is strong, it only lasts for 10 seconds each time, which is really too short."
Mizuki felt that it would be best to permanently improve mental power.
This temporary improvement is still not enough.
"When Naruto and Nobita become Chūnin, they can recruit more disciples and then find a way to get something that can permanently enhance their spiritual power."
"Toilet water won't work. You have to find something else, preferably medicine."
After a short period of training, Mizuki returned to Rock Shinobi Village.
In the next three days, he would use Liushen toilet water every day to try to absorb natural energy.
But I don’t know why, but it doesn’t work every time.
I always feel like something is wrong, but I can't quite pinpoint it.
The rest of the time, he just wandered around, trying the food in Rock Shinobi Village and looking at the exotic scenery.
Chūnin didn't plan to cause trouble until the exam was over.
Even if someone wants to cause trouble, he will take action decisively.
In short, I must ensure that this Chūnin exam is successfully completed.
Of course, if you don't make trouble, you won't make trouble, but it is still necessary to make some preparations before making trouble.
For example, he took advantage of these three days to explore the remaining Five Tails Jinchūriki in Rock Shinobi Village.
"First Generation Hokage-sama, the second round of the Chūnin exam, the battle for the Earth Coiling axis has ended. Lord Tsuchikage asked me to come and inform you to go to the hot spring valley in the center of the rocky jungle to watch the semi-finals together."
Mizuki was wandering the streets when he received a notification from Rock Shinobi.
"Okay, I understand, lead the way!"
Hot Spring Valley, in the middle of the rocky jungle.
At this time, 15 people gathered together and came here.
All six from Phoenix Village arrived.
A group of people arrived in Konoha, namely Xiao Li, Tiantian, and an unknown sidekick.
There is also only one group of people in Cloud Shinobi Village, the three disciples of Killer Bee, Samyi, Omoyi, and Karui.
Rock Shinobi Village was completely wiped out, which made Onoki, a Tsuchikage, almost explode with anger.
In the Chūnin exam organized by Rock Shinobi Village, the entire Rock Shinobi army was wiped out. I believe that within a few days, the entire ninja world will know about this.
Ohnoki's face was lost to his grandma's house.
Sand Shinobi Village and Kirigakure were also wiped out, but with Rock Shinobi Village in front, they were much less stressed.
Sand Shinobi leads the team Baki has no expression on his face and directly leads people back to the Land of Wind.
Terumi Mei smiled and did not lead anyone away like Baki, showing the atmosphere of a village.
What surprised everyone the most was that a group of people from a little-known small village called Xiannin Village managed to get here.
While everyone was surprised that this village was named after "Xian", they were also curious about where this village came from.
Even the Genin from Sand Shinobi Village and Kirigakure were eliminated. Three contestants from this Shinobi Village reached the semi-finals.
This gave rise to various speculations in everyone's mind.
When Mizuki came to the Hot Spring Valley and saw the three Genin in the Sennin Village, he raised an eyebrow.
The three people in Xian Ninja Village were all familiar to him.
"Suigetsu, Jugo, and that woman, I forgot her name, but I remember that she mastered the Crystal Style Bloodline limit and is not weak."
"So, this Sennin Village is the previous Sound Ninja Village?"
"So, is Yakushi Kabuto here too?"
Mizuki turned around and saw a strange middle-aged man in the direction where the Sennin villagers were standing.
Although he looks strange, Mizuki feels that this person is Yakushi Kabuto in disguise.
Orochimaru returned to Konoha and handed over the Sound Ninja Village to Yakushi Kabuto.
I haven’t heard from Yakushi Kabuto for a long time, but I didn’t expect to meet him here.
Mizuki just glanced at the other person and looked away.
He frowned slightly, and he noticed an unusual aura on Yakushi Kabuto.
"Has he mastered the Ryūchi Cave Senjutsu?"
