Chapter 188: Chapter 188: What's His Relationship with Kaguya?
Country of That.
"Are you saying that the Ancestral Country has sent three thousand men towards our country?"
The middle - aged man in the palace raised his eyebrows and asked, "Are you sure you're not mistaken? How dare Tianzi, such a weak daimyo, start a war?"
"Indeed, I'm not mistaken."
The kneeling samurai replied, "Our scouts saw it with their own eyes and then rushed back to report without stopping."
"Hahaha!"
The middle - aged man couldn't help but burst out laughing.
The other ministers also laughed along.
For a moment, the air was filled with a joyful atmosphere.
"My Lord! It's bad!"
Suddenly, a panicked voice interrupted this happy atmosphere.
"What's all the fuss about?"
The middle - aged man frowned and asked.
"My Lord!"
The running samurai knelt on the ground, his face full of fear, and said, "They're attacking! They're right outside the palace!"
"Impossible!"
The middle - aged man suddenly stood up and said, "Our Country of That has five thousand elite soldiers, the best among all the countries!"
"My Lord!"
Just as the samurai was about to speak, countless soldiers flooded into the palace.
They were the Ninjas from the Ancestral Country.
"Kentaro?!"
The middle - aged man was so scared that he collapsed to the ground.
After confirming the corresponding translation of Kentaro in the glossary (if it exists), use the correct translation. If not, keep "Kentaro" and add it to the glossary.
This person is the most famous general in the Ancestral Country.
His appearance here undoubtedly proved that their Country of That had been defeated and destroyed.
Moreover, the palace had been breached in less than half a day.
What a joke!
The middle - aged man looked at Kentaro in a daze and for a moment thought he was dreaming.
Not only him, but the other ministers were even worse. They all knelt on the ground, expressing their submission.
Kentaro immediately showed a smile.
On the bracelet he wore, which was the Heavenly Network Log - in Device, a message popped up at this time.
[Congratulations to player Kentaro for achieving the feat of being the first to breach the Country of That. You have received a special reward, D - rank Genjutsu: Nakurami no Jutsu[b]D - rank Genjutsu: Nakurami no Jutsu[/b].]
Moreover, this message was visible to all players.
Kentaro immediately felt that everyone around him was looking at him with envy.
How awesome!
It was a double pleasure both mentally and materially.
It made him respect the Goddess even more.
Kentaro looked at the middle - aged man and said, "Tie them all up."
The Country of That was thus destroyed.
But Kentaro didn't command the army to continue attacking the next country.
Instead, according to Natsume's instructions, he focused on recruiting new players.
After all, the more new players they recruited, the more rewards they would get.
For them, simply destroying a country was not that appealing.
On the hillside behind the palace, three magical animals were having a conversation at this time.
"Chakra and Ninjutsu can greatly enhance humans,"
The Frog Sage said seriously, "Other countries won't be able to resist their attacks. Without a doubt, the Ancestral Country will end this era of war and chaos."
"It's time for us to take action,"
The White Snake Sage spat out clouds of smoke and said.
"Well... If the Heavenly Network is used in this way, Kaguya Otsutsuki may not need to suck the power of our planet anymore,"
The Katsuyu Sage hesitated for a few seconds and said, "Moreover, Chakra is obviously beneficial to humans."
"Katsuyu, you're too soft - hearted."
The Frog Sage called her by her real name, shook his head, and said, "Those who are not of our kind are bound to have different intentions (an idiom meaning people of different groups may have different motives)."
"However, there's one thing that's not wrong."
The White Snake Sage showed a pensive look and asked, "The benefits of Chakra go without saying. Can we make use of it?"
"That makes sense indeed."
Hearing this, the Frog Sage also started to think.
"Humans can hardly bear pure Natural Energy, but they can accept Chakra without problems."
The Katsuyu Sage had a sudden inspiration and said, "If we mix the two, maybe we can achieve a certain balance."
"Good idea!"
The more the Frog Sage thought about it, the more reasonable it seemed. "After dealing with the Emperor of the Ancestral Country, let's discuss this."
At this moment, a strong premonition welled up in his heart.
What the Katsuyu Sage said might be the key to defeating Kaguya Otsutsuki.
Because at present, Hagoromo Otsutsuki and Hamura Otsutsuki were indeed quite a bit inferior to their mother.
But the prophecy hinted that only an Otsutsuki could defeat an Otsutsuki.
There must be something crucial in between.
Now it seemed highly likely to be Natural Energy.
Ancestral Country.
On a broad plain somewhere.
Water Release: Water Dragon Shot[b]Water Release: Water Dragon Shot[/b]!
Natsume made Hand Seals, and his Chakra transformed into a roaring water dragon that flew out.
His opponent was Hagoromo Otsutsuki.
He just stood still and gently raised his hand.
Water Release: Water Formation Wall[b]Water Release: Water Formation Wall[/b]!
A wall made of water blocked in front of him.
Natsume curled the corner of his mouth. Damn, it's so awesome not having to make hand seals!
The water dragon hit the water wall and lost its effect immediately.
Hagoromo Otsutsuki suddenly flew up. A bright thunderbolt gathered in his right hand. With a flash of his figure, he rushed over.
This was not a Ninjutsu taught by Natsume, but one he had realized on his own.
In terms of power and appearance, it was a bit similar to Kakashi Hatake's Lightning Cutter.
But if Natsume knew that Hagoromo Otsutsuki could develop an S - rank Lightning Release Ninjutsu at the age of two, he'd probably be stunned.
This was a real genius.
The only things Natsume was better than Hagoromo Otsutsuki at were experience and the Sage Body.
His Sage Body had reached perfection, but Hagoromo was only two years old and far from being able to give full play to its due effect.
Not far away, Kaguya Otsutsuki was watching the fight between the two.
There was more to come in this mini - chapter!
A thoughtful expression crossed her cold and delicate face.
There was nothing special about the Ninjutsu Natsume used.
But his Taijutsu was interesting.
He learned from Tsunade and studied the orthodox basic Taijutsu of Konoha.
If he continued to learn, there would be two branches.
The Nagare School of Steel Fist and the Gentle Fist School.
The former was represented by Might Guy, and the latter by the Hyuga clan.
Although Kaguya Otsutsuki was the ancestor of the Hyuga clan, she actually didn't know the Gentle Fist.
The so - called Eighty Gods Vacuum Attack[b]Eighty Gods Vacuum Attack[/b] is actually not the Gentle Fist but a Kekkei Mora technique.
The Gentle Fist was probably created by Hamura Otsutsuki.
With Kaguya Otsutsuki's strength, she hadn't met an enemy that made her think about techniques.
Anyway, she could just crush them with brute force.
But now, having watched Natsume fight numerous times, she couldn't help but have a few thoughts.
"Teacher, come on!"
Hamura otsutsuki shouted loudly.
Kaguya otsutsuki glanced at him hopping around and suddenly smiled.
She had lived for more than a thousand years, yet she had never experienced a life like this.
But it was quite nice.
At least she felt happy.
Previously, she was like stagnant water, without even a single ripple.
Just then, Kaguya otsutsuki's bracelet trembled slightly, and a distress message came out.
It was Kentaro and the others. They had encountered a god.
"Natsume."
Kaguya otsutsuki originally thought of disappearing directly, but she didn't.
"Your Highness, Goddess."
Natsume immediately stopped fighting and instantly appeared in front of her.
"God."
Kaguya otsutsuki maintained her concise style.
"Take me to have a look, how about it?"
Natsume's eyes lit up and he became interested.
Among the gods, two could contribute destiny value.
Specifically, the Shinigami[b]Shinigami[/b] and the Evil God.
Kaguya otsutsuki reached out and placed her hand on Natsume's shoulder. In an instant, the two disappeared.
The Tree Country.
After Kentaro and the others defeated the ordinary soldiers, they thought they had victory in the bag. But suddenly, many wild beasts emerged from the forest.
In this world, humans are unable to use Natural Energy[b]Natural Energy[/b].
But wild beasts were different. They lived in nature for a long time, and over time, their physiques were enhanced.
If sufficient time passed, they might develop into a force, similar to the Three Great Holy Places[b]Three Great Holy Places[/b].
Such wild beasts were undoubtedly fatal to Kentaro and the others, who were only Genin.
"Hold on!"
Kentaro shouted while dodging the tiger's attacks.
He was already covered in injuries.
Just then, Kaguya otsutsuki appeared in front of him.
She gently raised her hand.
The tiger let out a scream and turned to ashes.
With her power, facing these insignificant wild beasts, she didn't need to use any Ninjutsu[b]Ninjutsu[/b] or Dojutsu[b]Dojutsu[/b] at all.
With a simple overwhelming of Chakra[b]Chakra[/b], they would all die.
"The Goddess[b]Goddess[/b] is here! We're saved!"
Kentaro immediately let out a sigh of relief.
"Tell your people to retreat."
Natsume watched Kaguya otsutsuki slaughtering the beasts and ordered.
Since the local gods were going to take action, it wouldn't be that simple.
Or rather, their target wasn't Kaguya otsutsuki, but them.
After all, if they could kill them, they wouldn't have waited until a thousand years later to make a move.
"Yes!"
Kentaro immediately used the Heavenly Network Log - in Device[b]Heavenly Network Log - in Device[/b] to send out a server - wide announcement.
For this, he also spent ten Ryo of Chakra[b]Chakra[/b] coins.
[All personnel, immediately disengage from the battle!]
After receiving the message, the remaining soldiers of the Goddess Army quickly moved away from the forest.
Natsume secretly thought that it was really convenient.
Actually, the most troublesome thing about an army was command.
It needed a very strict system to be able to operate smoothly.
But now with the Heavenly Network[b]Heavenly Network[/b], it wasn't that troublesome.
Natsume believed that even without Chakra[b]Chakra[/b], the Ancestral Country[b]Ancestral Country[/b] could unify the world using the Heavenly Network[b]Heavenly Network[/b].
Not long after, Kaguya otsutsuki had already wiped out all the wild beasts.
"Damn invaders!"
An angry voice rang out from deep beneath the ground.
Suddenly, the forest shook and the ground cracked. A giant tree almost four meters tall emerged.
Faintly, a human face could be seen on the trunk.
It was the deity worshiped in the Tree Country.
Natsume could sense a vast amount of natural energy and a faint spiritual power without using his Sensor[b]Sensor[/b] ability.
This spiritual power should be a special Yin Release[b]Yin Release[/b] formed by people's Faith[b]Faith[/b] in the tree god.
In other words, the native deities in this world were composed of natural energy and Yin Release[b]Yin Release[/b].
No wonder they couldn't defeat Kaguya Otsutsuki.
She possessed all seven attributes of Yin, Yang, and the five elements.
When it came to divinity, she was the true deity.
While Natsume was slightly dazed, six oddly - shaped deities appeared.
They surrounded Kaguya Otsutsuki, as if they were going to kill her the next second.
Natsume squinted.
Killing her was definitely out of the question.
He even doubted if these seven deities could last ten seconds against Kaguya Otsutsuki.
But anyway, now Natsume, Kentaro and the others were left alone.
"Snake! A huge snake!"
Panicked shouts rang out from the Goddess Army[b]Goddess Army[/b].
Natsume immediately turned around and saw a giant snake over ten meters long.
"Has it finally come?"
He wasn't surprised in the least.
Shifting Body Technique[b]Shifting Body Technique[/b]!
Natsume instantly materialized in front of the giant snake. He clenched his fist with one hand and punched it directly.
Chakra Enhanced Strength[b]Chakra Enhanced Strength[/b]!
A surging power gushed out.
A shrill scream rang out.
The giant snake's huge body slid backward, leaving a gully on the ground.
"So powerful!"
Kentaro and the others stared at this scene in disbelief.
They could understand why the Goddess[b]Goddess[/b] was powerful.
But Natsume seemed to be an ordinary human like them, yet he was incredibly powerful?
Suddenly, many people thought of the reason.
Undoubtedly, it was the gift from the Goddess[b]Goddess[/b].
In the distance, the White Snake Sage[b]White Snake Sage[/b] looked a bit annoyed.
Although Natsume had shown his Sage Body[b]Sage Body[/b] to Kaguya Otsutsuki and often trained with the two brothers of Hagoromo Otsutsuki, they were unaware of it.
After all, they didn't dare to approach the palace of the Ancestral Country[b]palace of the Ancestral Country[/b].
It was a forbidden area within a forbidden area.
They would definitely be discovered by Kaguya Otsutsuki.
"Something's wrong!"
The frog sage[b]frog sage[/b] jumped up in fright.
It initially thought that Natsume would only be slightly stronger than the Goddess Army[b]Goddess Army[/b].
Previously, it had only observed from afar and wasn't very clear. Now that it finally had a chance to take a close look.
It immediately discovered that Natsume had a huge amount of Chakra[b]Chakra[/b] in his body.
"How is that possible?!"
The frog sage[b]frog sage[/b] looked utterly incredulous. "How could Kaguya Otsutsuki, that woman, give so much Chakra[b]Chakra[/b] to an ordinary person? What on earth is their relationship?!"
It couldn't understand.
Over the years, they had been secretly observing Kaguya Otsutsuki and roughly understood her personality.
No matter what she did, she always wanted to absorb Chakra[b]Chakra[/b] to strengthen herself.
Whether it was planting trees or establishing the present - day Goddess Army[b]Goddess Army[/b].
In essence, it was not out of kindness or pity.
But Natsume's appearance shattered the frog sage[b]frog sage[/b]'s perception.
"This isn't the time to talk about these things."
The White Snake Sage[b]White Snake Sage[/b] said anxiously, "If we don't act now, my clan members will be beaten to death!"
The frog sage instantly leaped into the air and swung its palm.
An invisible wave of air swept out.
Natsume gently dodged to the side, avoiding the attack.
The spot where he had just been standing exploded, revealing a huge palm print.
The power of the Sage Art using pure natural energy is really impressive.
Natsume looked at the frog sage.
According to the setting in the original story, the Great Toad Sage's strength is not inferior to that of the Sage of Six Paths.
Although it hadn't shown much of its might, Natsume couldn't let his guard down because of that.
I can use the Sage Art too.
Natsume joined his hands together and entered Sage Mode[b]Sage Mode[/b].
The frog sage was instantly stunned.
What the hell is this?
Am I having a freaking hallucination?
Sage Art: Torii Seal[b]Sage Art: Torii Seal[/b]!
Taking advantage of the moment when it was in a daze, Natsume immediately launched an attack.
A red torii descended from the sky and immediately suppressed the frog sage.
"How can you use the Sage Art?!"
Even though it was being pressed into the ground, the frog sage couldn't hide its shock.
The Sage Art, or rather Natural Energy, has always been their privilege.
Humans had never mastered it.
Now, suddenly, there was a human who could use the Sage Art. How could it not be shocked?
Moreover, the Sage Mode[b]Sage Mode[/b] he was using. Could it be the mixed mode of natural energy and Chakra that the Katsuyu Sage had mentioned?
If the three of them hadn't just discussed it, the frog sage would have suspected that there was an Insider[b]Insider[/b].
Natsume didn't bother to answer its question and formed Hand Seals[b]Hand Seals[/b].
Sage Art: Water Release: Water Severing Slash[b]Sage Art: Water Release: Water Severing Slash[/b]!
He directly increased the intensity.
Natsume immediately spat out a highly compressed Water column[b]Water column[/b], which was like the sharpest sword, cutting through everything in its path.
Feeling a fatal crisis, the frog sage immediately puffed out its mouth.
Croak!
A huge sound wave centered on it shook the torii open.
Without saying a word, it started running and instantly teleported back to Mount Myoboku[b]Mount Myoboku[/b].
The remaining force of Natsume's Water column[b]Water column[/b] sliced through the previously injured Giant Snake[b]Giant Snake[/b].
As for the White Snake Sage[b]White Snake Sage[/b], it had also disappeared.
Natsume was slightly stunned. Am I really that scary?
But he quickly realized something and turned to see Kaguya Otsutsuki[b]Kaguya Otsutsuki[/b].
She stared at the strange eye shadows on Natsume's face and reached out her hand.
Chakra circulated in his body.
After confirming that he wasn't injured, she nodded.
Natsume secretly let out a sigh of relief.
He thought Kaguya Otsutsuki[b]Kaguya Otsutsuki[/b] would ask about Sage Mode[b]Sage Mode[/b], but unexpectedly, she only cared about him.
Well, it seems that his pursuit strategy is having an effect.
Four thousand words.
