Red sand dust

Maybe Kurama Yakumo hadn't thought about it that much before, but after seeing so many things, even the Hokage was assassinated in front of everyone, the so-called big shot was nothing more than that.

It really made her turn her attention to legendary characters, and even myths and legends that were only circulated in ancient chronicles, and she was shocked to realize that the common sense that she had taken for granted in the past was actually not the case.

The two chatted while walking, and finally found a secluded place. After setting up an isolation barrier, Daimaru asked Kurama Yakumo to call out the two beings who didn't know how to classify them.

The black-haired Tachibana and the blond-haired Sakura seem to have quite different personalities, but in fact they are two sides of the same thinking tendency with different expressions.

For example, anger and fear are both negative emotions caused by incompetence and weakness, but they are vented in different ways.

The confident Tachibana and the slightly arrogant Puying are different from the five "artificial elves" born in the Cradle Garden. The latter's thinking is greatly influenced by innateness, but the perceptual cognition requires Daimaru to spend a lot of effort to guide and cultivate, and the contractor must be selected carefully; the former is different, and its birth is much smoother, with innate emotions It is richer, but it requires more effort to make up for it in terms of conventional cognition.

"It's not a puppet body, but a semi-energy life similar to spiritualization!"

He gently touched the two little girls' heads with his fingers. They felt slightly cool to the touch, without the body temperature of normal creatures, but the fluctuations in their thoughts were extremely strong.

It seemed that he was not satisfied with Daimaru, a guy with a somewhat vicious face. After being touched by a big hand, he was obviously unhappy.

"Artificial elves" are beings that grew up in the "Cradle Garden" that did not exist in the ninja world. Tachibana and Sakura are not. If we insist on finding a similar species for them...

"It is actually an activated natural spiritual creature, but...it was obviously born the day after tomorrow. How is that possible?"

Daimaru has never seen anything similar in the ninja world to stories like Nuwa patching up the sky, colorful sacred stones turning into monkeys, and going to the west to learn scriptures. Even though the name of the four tails is Sun Wukong, it is completely different from the stone monkey in his memory. .

Obviously, the birth of the two little sisters is inseparable from Daimaru's lost Senjutsu chakra.

Although the origin myths of the two worlds are very different, they are similar to the creation of the void. Innate gods, from the sun, moon and stars, to mountains and rivers, are all incarnations of gods. For example, Amaterasu and Tsukuyomi refer to the sun and the sun respectively. moon.

Seeing Daimaru confused, Kurama Yakumo chuckled and said:

"You can be regarded as being in the game without knowing it! Some things are not as complicated as you think! Since you know that the inheritance of life in the ninja world is a double interaction that uses chakra as a link to influence and transpose genetic information. Model, we have obviously seen the life forms of tangible soulless and invisible soul, and can even be resurrected from the dead using this theory, so how come you are so confused?"

The former refers to White Zetsu, which appears to be alive but actually has no soul core; the latter refers to pure energy creatures like tailed beasts.

In addition to the two, there are all kinds of strange monsters and monsters.

If we regard a life with both body and soul as a haploid, the normal world is a diploid, having both. But, does homogeneous life also not exist?

In the past, Daimaru regarded incomplete puppets like Bai Zetsu and tailed beasts as beings with no powerful chakra and no stable form as incomplete lives, equating them with lifeless dead objects. This was actually a narrow prejudice. .

Although they are not normal, they are still beings recognized by the ninja world. Although the "psychic puppets" Daimaru worked hard to create for the "artificial elves" seem to be complete, they are actually a bit picky.

Just like Daimaru's previous life, there had been debates for many years about whether prions, which have no genetic material such as genes and are just a ball of protein, are considered living things.

Ninjas also regard tailed beasts as natural disasters or weapons of war, but are they really just dead objects that cannot reach the biological level?

"Am I misleading myself?"

Daimaru touched his head awkwardly, feeling a little uncomfortable.

"A ninja is a traveler wandering on the road to becoming a god" is often said on his lips, but he doesn't pay much attention to this kind of ridicule, and the people who listen pay attention.

Pangu created the world, his body transformed into all things in the world, and all existences are his descendants.

When ordinary people die, they will only be decomposed by microorganisms and turned into nutrients to nourish the soil.

The most amazing application of chakra refined by ninjas is the influence exerted by the Six Paths Sage through projection and incarnation for thousands of years. The chakra reincarnations of Asura and Indra are passed down from generation to generation.

After all, the instinct of life drives every individual to resist death as much as possible.

Blood families created by genetic genes, chakra reincarnation, blood inheritance limits, etc. Even when people are alive, they make the traces of their existence more profound and postpone the time of being forgotten as much as possible. All of them are in some way. The way to continue life is called selfish DNA at the smallest level, and honor, faith, etc. at the largest level. Even if a person dies, there will be successors.

The special environment of the ninja world makes it difficult for a very small number of strong people to die completely, and there is still hope of recovery even after a thousand years of life.

In this special world, the heirs do not have to be flesh and blood, and the next generation may even be completely different from the previous generation.

Natural selection, survival of the fittest.

In the ninja world, this "competition" does not only refer to genetic mutation, but also takes into account the influence of various extraordinary powers such as chakra.

There are even many puzzling ways that it is impossible for Daimaru to understand them all.

The two talked a lot, until later, Daimaru, who was still a little unhappy, took Kurama Yakumo through the passage of the illusion space and came to the secret base of the Kingdom of Rain.

In the cave where the heretic golem is located, Ibaraki has put up layers of barriers to prevent White Zetsu and Uchiha Obito from breaking through the defense and sneaking in.

The powerful eldest sister Guren stood behind Ye Cang like a minion, watching Yuukimaru try hard but not being able to help.

After several modifications and several interfaces installed in the Zhongzhuang Fenfu Tea Kettle, it can indirectly mobilize Yuukimaru's talent for controlling tailed beasts through external chakra input.

I have tried many times in the past, but Yukimaru alone cannot change the form of the Ten-Tails and turn it into a sacred tree.

Seeing that the Fourth Ninja War is approaching, there is not much time to prepare, and Uchiha Obito may come to snatch the Rinnegan Eye at any time.

Daimaru must take advantage of the last moment to fully control the situation and get all the benefits he can. The rest of the burden of saving the world should be left to Uchiha Sasuke and Uzumaki Naruto. Suna Ninja can just be the background for a few years. .

At this moment, things were busy above. The underground river stretched out under the feet of the Heretic Demon Statue. The roots of the sacred tree were shadowed, and the unformed Bai Jue clone was hanging upside down. There were also dense reserves arranged under the water.

After getting most of Shimura Danzo's body that had been almost eroded by Hashirama's cells, he directly used it as material to mass-produce White Zetsu clones. After consuming a lot of chakra, he finally achieved the current results.

With the White Jue Army, even if it is less than 100,000 now, it is still a decisive force.

As for how to use it, Daiwan still needs to consider it.

Yuukimaru, who was trembling all over, finally managed to exert the power of the colonial suit, Bunfuku Tea Kettle, under the concerned gaze of everyone. The influx of chakra from the outside brought abundant strength and gave him the courage to continue working hard. .

Daimaru, who had just arrived, saw that his fighting posture was almost stable, and he directly took out a bunch of scarlet eyeballs, which were the Mangekyō Sharingan of Uchiha Shisui obtained from Danzo Shimura and Sasuke Uchiha.

In order to increase the success rate, Daimaru had to take a little risk.

Fortunately, Xiang Rin was present at the scene, which at least ensured that Yuukimaru's life would not be in danger. The worst-case scenario was that he would be weak for a long time and his development would be slightly delayed, which would not affect Yuukimaru's future life.

As the two Mangekyō Sharingan were pressed into the special grooves of the Sou Sui and Bunfuku Tea Kettle, a violent Yin attribute chakra burst out suddenly. After being calmed and filtered by the Sou Sui, it was sent into Yukimaru's body.

Several White Zetsu clones are attached to Yukimaru's body, providing a huge amount of chakra and vitality, providing this little guy with the countervailing power to calm down the Yinfu Chakra.

Next to him, Nagato's filthy earth body was controlled by Ibaraki, ready to use the sealing technique to absorb all the dangers and chakra in his body at any time.

A few minutes later, Yuukimaru, who was struggling to hold on, suddenly raised his head with eyes blank, opened his mouth, and seemed to be singing silently.

The motionless outsider demon, activated by a wave that could only be detected with chakra perception, suddenly opened its arms, pushed away the surrounding stone walls, overturned the shelter above its head, and stood up suddenly.

On a lightless rainy night, the heretic demon statue looked up to the sky and screamed, suddenly absorbing all the natural energy around it. Ordinary ninjas did not feel it, and a very few masters only sensed a very uncomfortable sense of threat.

Fortunately, Ibaraki had been prepared. Whether it was the strange voice or the huge body, they were all covered by the illusion barrier. Most people could not detect the movement at all, but a feeling of fear arose in their hearts.

Immediately afterwards, the ten-tailed phantom shook, and the pupil beast form frantically absorbed all the power it could reach. Daimaru also unceremoniously used his position as the leader of the "Relief Team" to study how to In the name of quelling the chakra uprising of the tailed beasts, a large amount of chakra was secretly collected and injected into the body of the ten-tailed beasts through Yukimaru.

Even so, it was not enough. Daimaru once again consumed less than half of the savings in the cradle garden, and finally let it begin to change its form.

The limbs stretch out long roots and sink into the ground. The ten tails are gathered together, and the trunk is lifted up, turning into a single stump of nearly 100 meters, and it is even growing taller.

The rain in the sky seemed to be aware of the appearance of the evil creature. The drizzle gradually stopped, but the dark clouds remained.

Later, with the absorption and digestion of chakra and natural energy, the originally lonely columnar tree trunks also stretched out branches, and some even grew green leaves.

It wasn't until the heretic demon transformed into a giant tree nearly two hundred meters high that seemed to be malnourished that Yuukimaru fell to the ground because he was exhausted. Daimaru also lost no time in retracting the pair of Mangekyō Sharingan.

Seeing this, Honglian moved forward with concern, but Xianglin took the lead. After a simple inspection and found nothing abnormal, he started to perform routine treatment.

"It's nothing serious. It's better than expected. You'll be fine after a while!"

After Daimaru ordered everyone to be on guard, he and Kurama Yakumo came to the upper part of the sacred tree. Looking at the flower buds that had just begun to take shape at the tip, they couldn't help but sigh with a headache:

"It seems like it's just a little bit close, but it's actually as difficult as reaching the sky. Even if you sacrifice all the Sunagakure Village, you may not be able to make the sacred tree blossom and bear fruit! Only if the entire shinobi world searches for chakra can you have a greater chance of getting what you want. .”

The fastest way is to sacrifice the surviving tailed beast chakra and let the sacred tree absorb it, which will definitely speed up the progress greatly.

The second step is to become the Ten-Tails Jinchuuriki and perform the Divine Tree Kaiju.

The last effective way is to have enough strong people to fill the vacancy in strength. If the quantity is not enough, the quality will be enough.

"Wait, I seem to have thought of something..."

Daimaru said suddenly, Kurama Yakumo chuckled,

"Amaterasu, Tsukuyomi, Betsutenjin, Kamui, Kagomei, but the ancient gods and holy places of the ninja world, today's Ryuji Cave, Shikotsu Forest, and Myoboku Mountain are all inferior! How did they become Are they part of the secret technique of the Mangekyo Sharingan and the Rinnegan?"

Daimaru thought for a moment and then replied:

"Either these native gods of the ninja world were unable to withstand the foreign sacred trees and were defeated and incorporated, or they took the initiative to integrate and continue to exist in another way! Just like the ancestor of your Kurama family, the Kurama Tengu, in the depths of the blood inheritance limit power , hiding the last traces..."

Even more broadly, why did Bai Jue exist in the first place?

In the era of Ōtsutsuki Hagoromo and Ōtsutsuki Hamura, there was a method similar to the shrine maiden's sacrifice. They "voluntarily" entered the roots of the sacred tree and were cultivated into White Zetsu.

Even though he is coercing the entire ninja world, Otsutsuki Kaguya still selects a few special people to train White Zetsu. Apart from these ineffective combat puppets, what on earth is the "Goddess of Uzumaki" collecting for the sacred tree?

Kurama Yakumo pointed his finger at his face with a smile:

"Perhaps, the ancestors of our Kurama family were the fish that slipped through the net. They hid deeper and were not discovered, and were forced to become part of the power of the fruit of the sacred tree!"

Unlike Uchiha Obito and Daimaru, who mass-produced inferior White Zetsu clones in order to fight a great ninja war, Ōtsutsuki Kaguya may just be collecting the scattered power of the local gods left in the ninja world to speed up the ripening of the fruits of the sacred tree. , and make it more "nutritious", the White Zetsu clone is just a by-product.

That's why things like White Zetsu may seem useful, but to the outsiders, the Otsutsuki clan, they are completely useless.

"Were those psychic beasts also trembling at that time, fearing that Kaguya Otsutsuki would take them out of their lair and make them into flower fertilizers, so they encouraged brothers Otsutsuki Hagoromo and Otsutsuki Hamura to seal the sacred tree?"

In comparison, Kurama Yakumo stole a little senjutsu chakra and created two villains to play house, which was really gentle.
