Kumogakure.
The Fourth Raikage frowned after hearing what Dodai said: "So, in this case, the Kusagakure Village will disappear soon?"
"Are we just going to let that stinky rock of Onoki go?"
Dodai said solemnly, "Hoshita Shuichi has mastered the Wood Release technique of Senju Hashirama , and intelligence has confirmed that there is a huge forest outside the Iwagakure Village."
"In order to protect the village, the Third Tsuchikage probably won't dare to interfere anymore."
"After all, it's too easy for Hoshita Shuichi to enter the Iwagakure Village."
The Fourth Raikage couldn't help but growl, "Damn it!"
"That bastard Hoshita Shuichi left Flying Thunder God on the tailed beasts."
The powerful Hoshita Shuichi is now like a sword hanging over the head of the Kumogakure, making them hesitate.
In the past, he would have intervened in the affairs of the Grass Kingdom long ago.
Even if they have a grudge against the Iwagakure , they will temporarily join forces to suppress Konoha.
Looking at the angry Fourth Raikage, Dodai changed the subject: "Lord Raikage, accurate information has also been sent back from the Amegakure."
"Hanzo is still in charge of the village, but one of the original three leaders of Akatsuki is now under his command, and he seems to value him very much, intending to train him as the next leader."
"And the owner of the Rinnegan, Nagato, disappeared from the Amegakure."
"However, Akatsuki was involved in the Grass Country incident. It seems that the Iwagakure Village hired Akatsuki."
The Fourth Raikage exploded upon hearing this and smashed the desk with his fist: "Onoki is actually colluding with the Akatsuki organization?"
Dodai looked at the broken table and said helplessly: "Lord Raikage, I'm afraid the Third Tsuchikage doesn't know about the Moon Eye Project, nor does he know that the Akatsuki organization is coveting the tailed beasts. Otherwise, he would have been chasing Akatsuki with all his strength like us."
The Fourth Raikage frowned and asked, "Why?"
Dodai pondered, "Maybe it has something to do with the tailed beasts."
"Bee is the perfect Jinchūriki. The Iwagakure Village does not have a perfect Jinchūriki, and has not established enough trust."
The Fourth Raikage snorted coldly: "No matter what the reason is, send a warning to the Iwagakure and the Akatsuki organization. When the time comes, don't blame us for killing their people as well."
Dodai nodded immediately: "Understood."
…
Hoshita Shuichi did not pay too much attention to the annexation of Kusagakure Village. It was a foregone conclusion anyway and he was not needed in any trivial matters.
First, the Grass Village will be taken over. The Fire Country will infiltrate and manipulate the Grass Country, and then the Grass Country will only be nominally incorporated into the Fire Country.
But this matter cannot be rushed.
Rice needs to be eaten bite by bite.
Time flies and it is almost the end of the year, but a piece of news came from the Amegakure.
Hanzo abdicated, and the new leader of the Amegakure, the female ninja Konan, who was one of the former leaders of the Akatsuki organization, became the new leader of the Amegakure.
The news was proactively conveyed by the Amegakure to Konoha and other major ninja villages.
At the Root base, Hoshita Shuichi, who received the news, immediately realized that Nagato had completely gone into darkness.
"We must go and congratulate them."
Leaving his clone behind to take charge, Hoshita Shuichi disappeared.
Outside the Amegakure, the figure of Hoshita Shuichi appeared in the cave.
He used the technique of listening to sense silently for a moment, and after confirming that White Zetsu and Black Zetsu were not in the Amegakure, his figure disappeared, and when he appeared again, he was already inside the Amegakure.
"Why do I feel like I'm having an affair?"
After strolling around the Amegakure, Hoshita Shuichi appeared directly in Konan's office.
konan was already used to Hoshita Shuichi's sudden appearance. He raised his head slightly and then lowered it again: "If you are here to congratulate me, there is no need."
Hoshita Shuichi chuckled: "Don't be so cold."
"At your age, you should know how to enjoy life."
konan is not that old, only four or five years older than him.
konan was too lazy to pay attention to this smooth-talking guy.
Hoshita Shuichi didn't care. He walked around konan's new office and finally came back to konan. He sat down on the desk and looked down at konan.
konan felt a little uncomfortable being looked at like that. He glanced at the empty assistant's office outside and asked, "What exactly are you here for this time?"
Hoshita Shuichi said seriously: "Of course, I am here to test how my future helper's strength has improved."
"Besides, as the leader of the Amegakure, even if your strength is not as good as the previous demigod Hanzo, it can't be too bad, right?"
konan wanted to say "You're too nosy", but thinking of the guidance that Hoshita Shuichi had given her before and the secret alliance, she held back and said calmly: "Don't worry, my strength is steadily improving, and I'm already proficient in the art of Shiki paper."
"But it's too early to talk about becoming your assistant. Your strength is improving, but Nagato is improving faster than you."
Hoshita Shuichi shook his head: "Unless Nagato can truly master the power of the Rinnegan, he can never be my opponent."
Konan didn't believe it: "Even becoming the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki isn't possible?"
Hoshita Shuichi nodded confidently, and then said: "You can control the Ten-Tails, but I don't recommend that Nagato become the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki."
konan asked: "Why?"
Hoshita Shuichi and Konan looked at each other: "Intuition!"
konan avoided Hoshita Shuichi's gaze and said, "Since you said that Nagato is no match for you, then if you attack Nagato now, you should be able to take down his Rinnegan, right?"
"Why don't you take the Rinnegan?"
Hoshita Shuichi heard this and smiled: "Because it is not necessary."
"Although the Rinnegan is powerful, it is not my power after all, but Uchiha Madara's."
"There are huge hidden dangers."
"If it's the Rinnegan, I'll go get that power myself."
konan said, "How can you obtain the Rinnegan if you don't have the Sharingan?"
Hoshita Shuichi knocked on the table: "I can master Wood Release, why can't I also master Sharingan?"
"They all have bloodline limits, so theoretically they should all be able to achieve it."
After hearing this, Konan looked at Hoshita Shuichi in shock: "You have mastered Wood Release... Didn't you get it by transplanting Hashirama's cells?"
Hoshita Shuichi said: "Of course, otherwise why would I suggest you try to practice Wood Release?"
"It seems you misunderstood. You thought it was a transplant of Hashirama's cells? I'm afraid your physique can't bear it, unless you transplant the Sharingan at the same time."
"Want to learn?"
Konan stared at Hoshita Shuichi: "I will not give up Yahiko's dream. Although we are allies now, I will also be your enemy."
"So, do you want to use me to threaten Nagato in the future?"
"As for reasons like liking or admiring, I don't believe them."
She was afraid that she would fall into despair after receiving too much sincere kindness.
Hoshita Shuichi kept looking into konan's eyes: "World peace... does it matter who achieves it?"
"And, to be honest, even if you master Wood Release and we become enemies in the future, you won't pose any threat to me."
"The physical attack immunity of Shikijitsu is not difficult for me to break."
"As for threatening Nagato with you..."
Hoshita Shuichi pinched his chin and thought for a while, then nodded and said, "It seems we can give it a try."
"Also, I'm not Nagato. While it's important to realize my dreams, I won't ignore the beauty that comes along the way."
"Otherwise, this life would be too boring."
konan lowered his head and said sadly: "Those beautiful things have been completely destroyed by your great country."
Hoshita Shuichi did not refute, but said: "Beauty is not born, but needs to be created by your own hands."
"My parents also died in the war, but I can live a good life now."
"Pain needs to be remembered, but remembering pain is not to torture yourself, but to avoid repeating such pain and to create beauty!"
konan was stunned when he heard this.
Hoshita Shuichi didn't give any chicken soup, and changed the subject: "You are in charge of the Amegakure now, so you might as well form an alliance with Konoha, or even with the Hidden Sunagakure and the Iwagakure."
"Next year, Konoha will invite allies to participate in the Chunin Exams. The Amegakure may as well participate."
konan came back to his senses, thought about it carefully and nodded: "I will seriously consider it."
Hoshita Shuichi nodded, which meant he agreed.
"Your assistant is about to come back. I'll leave first and come to practice with you in the evening."
After saying that, Hoshita Shuichi disappeared.
konan opened his mouth to refuse, but didn't have the chance, and was secretly annoyed.
Self-righteous and self-willed.
But, Wood Release...
Konan thought to herself, "If I can master the same Wood Release as Nagato, I can create an Exploding Talisman directly."
Her paper secret technique is the manipulation of ninja tools, and detonating tags need to be prepared in advance.
However, the nature of Wood Release has changed, and paper can be made directly, which means that the Explosive Talisman-style talisman can also be formed directly on the made paper.
After leaving the Amegakure, Hoshita Shuichi stood at the entrance of the cave and looked out at the village: "Konan, it seems a bit difficult to conquer the village."
"This is all cement sealed."
"Why don't you try Tsunade? It doesn't matter if you get beaten up."
But he couldn't bear to do it.
Lustful, splash!
"I also want to give them a happy home."
Hoshita Shuichi admits that he is a pervert, but he is sincere to every one of them and is definitely not a scumbag.
I glanced at the talent tree.
There is one PUA talent left, Asuka and Hakura have already completed it.
Although the talent worked well, Hoshita Shuichi felt that it insulted his feelings.
He was clearly trying to save a lost girl, but they said he was doing PUA.
"It's not easy to be a good person. If you don't have some strength, you will definitely become a bootlicker."
Hoshita Shuichi left a sigh that echoed in the empty cave.
After returning to Konoha, Hoshita Shuichi came to the training ground outside the Forest of Death, then performed the Weighted Rock Technique on himself, summoned his own sword under the extremely strong gravity, and began to practice swordsmanship.
This is more difficult than carrying weights or practicing sword skills in the sea, but also more suitable.
Because gravity is evenly distributed to every part and every cell of the body.
An hour later, the sweaty Hoshita Shuichi stopped, released the aggravated rock technique, and immediately performed the transformation technique to become a mini Nine-Tailed Beast, absorbing natural energy to replenish his strength.
After his strength recovered, he canceled the transformation, stood up, clasped his hands together, and rich golden chakra appeared on his body.
His chakra was originally blue, but it turned golden after digesting the flesh and blood power of the Nine-Tails.
Click, click!
It is formed by huge bones, then meridians, blood vessels, muscles, and then a layer of scaly skin.
It took more than 5 minutes before a golden giant with three heads and six arms emerged.
Hoshita Shuichi leaped into the air and appeared between the eyebrows of the golden giant who was more than ten meters tall.
This golden giant was completely built based on Hoshita Shuichi's own template, and his long hair was actually strands of Netherworld Fire Chains.
After taking a breath, Hoshita Shuichi continued to concentrate, and a layer of armor began to cover the golden giant's body.
But unlike Susanoo, this layer of armor is like marble and is made of a honeycomb structure of regular hexagonal prisms.
This is the Earth-release defensive ninjutsu that the shadow clone who practiced Earth-release ninjutsu a few days ago finally created.
Earth Release-Hive Shield!
This change in properties + form makes the difficulty of this technique reach S level.
Moreover, the Honeycomb Shield can be cast not only by using Earth Release, but also by using Lava Release.
Even when using Lava Release, its defense is even stronger than Roshi's lava armor.
After putting on the honeycomb shield, streams of hot magma immediately flowed out of the honeycomb holes.
After trying out the Lava Release, Hoshita Shuichi then tried spraying highly corrosive Lava release acid, Scorch Release airflow, and flame release fire from his honeycombs.
The current state will not affect the use of any bloodline limit.
But that's not enough.
Hoshita Shuichi lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, and the honeycomb shield was immediately covered with solid wood.
This kind of covering is not a simple surface covering, but a layer of wooden floor-like decoration inlaid on the honeycomb structure.
The honeycomb structure still exists!
This time, the original rock giant turned into a wooden man with three heads and six arms.
Then a wooden dragon grew out of the wooden man and wrapped around his body.
"Let's try the many bloodline limits first..."
Released his clasped hands, Hoshita Shuichi controlled the giant and raised all six arms.
The next moment, an arm appeared on each side and made a virtual grab, and a giant vacuum blade of scorching escape emerged, forming a giant sword.
While the other arms' palms flexed, balls quickly formed.
Flame Release Rasengan, Lava Release Rasengan, Magnetic Style Rasengan, and Lava Release Rasengan.
Then the two dragon heads on the left and right opened their mouths at the same time, one side released a wind release Rasengan, and the other side released a Boiling Release Rasengan.
"Good, very good!"
Hoshita Shuichi laughed loudly, this is the real God of Stars.
This can barely be called supernatural power!In this state, any of his ninjutsu abilities can be used, and the output power is greatly enhanced.
"If the defense is not enough..."
Snap!
Hoshita Shuichi clasped his hands together again and stacked the armor!
Along with the sound of the chirping birds, lightning spewed out from the honeycomb, then covered the entire giant, and quickly condensed, covering the surface of the wooden armor with another layer of Purple Thunder God Armor.
Boom! Boom!
After dispersing many balls, Hoshita Shuichi, who retained the Scorch Release Vacuum Giant Blade, controlled the God of the Stars and took steps forward, leaving charred footprints on the ground.
Punch, swing the sword, duck, kick.
Hoshita Shuichi gradually became familiar with the God of Stars and was able to control him with ease.
At this time, Namikaze Minato appeared nearby, standing on the top of a tree, and looking at the moving giant, he was shocked: "Is this Susanoo? Did Shuichi open his Mangekyō?"
"No, that form is the God of the Stars, but it seems to feel different from before."
"This level is not much different from Shisui's Susanoo."
Namikaze Minato had previously seen Hoshita Shuichi's series of ninjutsu called the God of the Stars.
For example, the Lava Giant, the Burning Giant, and the combination of the two.
Although it is also very powerful, there is still a certain gap compared to Shisui's Susanoo.
But now the feeling that this giant gave to Namikaze Minato was completely different from before.
"It seems that after absorbing the power of the Nine-Tails, the nature of the chakra has changed, and there has been a qualitative change?"
Namikaze Minato speculated secretly and a smile appeared on his face.
The stronger this disciple is, the better it will be for Konoha.
"But it's really hard to imagine that he can create a power comparable to Susanoo with his own ability. He deserves the title of the God of Ninja!"
Namikaze Minato sighed with a smile.
Hoshita Shuichi also sensed his teacher Namikaze Minato, turned around and shouted, "Teacher, please use the wind release Rasenshuriken to test my defense."
Namikaze Minato smiled and agreed: "No problem."
After saying that, his eyelids drooped, and the next moment, eye shadow appeared, and he instantly entered the sage mode.
He couldn't throw the wind release Rasenshuriken in normal state, so he could only use the Sage Mode.
However, although he can instantly enter Sage Mode, the duration of the mode is very short.
A maximum of two wind release Rasenshuriken.
But that's enough for now.
Namikaze Minato raised his hand, and with a sharp and piercing buzzing sound, a wind-style spiral shuriken quickly condensed and then was thrown out by a swing of his arm.
The high-speed rotating wind-style spiral shuriken cut through space and arrived in the blink of an eye.
Hoshita Shuichi did not attack, but allowed the wind release Rasenshuriken to hit the Star God's chest.
The sage-level wind-style spiral shuriken cut through Purple Thunder God Armor at high speed, and the collapsed lightning armor turned into countless electric lights that sprayed outward.
The wind release Rasenshuriken encountered the second level of Wood Style defense.
Wood chips flew everywhere, but the Rasenshuriken also slowed down. Before it could break through the Wood Release defense, it reached its limit and collapsed with a loud bang.
With a casual wave of his hand, Hoshita Shuichi tore the expanding ball of light apart, turning it into a storm that swept to both sides.
Namikaze Minato was surprised when he saw this scene: "What a strong defense, even Wood Release is combined with it."
"Then there may be a layer of defense below."
Moreover, he also saw that the first level of lightning defense was quickly restored.
At this moment, Namikaze Minato felt it was too perverted!
Who can break such a defense?
Can the Complete Susanoo do it?
Namikaze Minato is looking forward to it.
Hoshita Shuichi, on the other hand, released the God of Stars and fell from the air.
Namikaze Minato came up to him and asked with a smile: "Shuichi, can you use all your ninjutsu and bloodline limits in this mode?"
Hoshita Shuichi smiled and nodded: "Yes, teacher."
"Although I have mastered it, it is now very slow to condense. I still need to get familiar with it step by step."
Namikaze Minato didn't care: "Don't worry, you still have a long time to hone your skills."
Hoshita Shuichi said: "It does take a long time to hone it, and it also needs further improvement."
"You can't fly now."
The basic counterpart of the God of Stars is Susanoo, and the goal is to surpass Susanoo.
