Chapter 168: Final Preparations for Fusion
The "gulping" sounds of eating the ice lolly didn't stop for a long time.
The next morning.
Inside the room, soft sunlight spilled onto the soft bed. Konan's long black eyelashes trembled slightly, and she slowly opened her eyes. First, a flash of confusion from just waking up, then she quickly became clear-headed.
She pursed her lips subconsciously. She was indeed a bit thirsty after eating roasted meat yesterday, and she had unconsciously sucked on the ice lolly for too long, causing her lips to lose some color.
"Hah~"
Konan yawned comfortably, her whole body feeling refreshed and carefree. Yesterday, she had properly released the pressure accumulated recently. After a night's sleep, she felt every cell in her body breathing and cheering. Her body and mind were in great condition.
She didn't get up immediately, looking down. Alex was still sleeping soundly on top. The top-quality silk quilt only covered his stomach. Seeming worried she might catch a cold, Alex, this intimate little thing, acted as a temporary blanket, sticking tightly to her chest.
Even though Konan moved lightly, the sleeping Alex still felt the Boing, Boing, Boing vibrations. The soft cushion seemed to have a mind of its own, trying to shake him awake.
Alex woke up slowly. Upon opening his eyes, he saw a peerlessly beautiful face.
"Konan, good morning."
He flew up shakily from the soft cushion, greeting her as always.
"Good morning, Alex." Konan looked at him with a smile, very happy.
She believed that the biggest gain from going to the Konoha Root base yesterday wasn't revenge, nor those powerful forbidden jutsu and sealing jutsu. It was the Yamanaka clan's secret art. It endowed Alex with the ability to communicate directly with her.
Previously, every morning, Alex could only communicate with her by writing on paper. Although the meaning was clearly expressed, it lacked vividness and intuition. Being able to communicate directly by voice now allowed her to feel Alex's existence and emotions even more.
"Let's get up." Alex extended white threads, folding the clothes thrown all over the floor by category. Black silk stockings, bunny girl outfit, nurse uniform, and some fox and rabbit tails. It was a bit messy and needed organizing.
Konan nodded with a smile and sat up. The silk quilt slipped down like water. She was still wearing nothing; with Alex around, she was used to sleeping in the nude.
Standing up, she spread her arms. White threads holding clothes, under Alex's control, quickly helped Konan dress neatly. Then she went into the bathroom to wash up.
Alex left the bedroom, flew across the living room, and arrived at the door. He controlled a piece of white paper to press the door handle, and the door opened with a click.
"Lady Konan."
Unsurprisingly, Kameda, who had been waiting not far away, jumped up immediately. He lowered his head slightly, looking at his toes, not looking into the room. But the door opened, and he didn't see Lady Konan in his field of vision.
He was puzzled but didn't look up, whispering, "Lady Konan?"
"Kameda."
Kameda was startled; Lady Konan's voice actually rang in his mind. He didn't understand why, but still asked respectfully, "Lady Konan, breakfast is ready. Will you go to the pavilion to dine, or should this subordinate bring it over?"
"Bring it over," Alex said lightly.
Today was the time to fuse the final bloodline; it was the most important thing right now.
"Yes, this subordinate will bring breakfast immediately."
Kameda bowed and retreated, flying to the kitchen.
Alex floated in mid-air, the door half-open. With Kameda's speed and diligence, he would return in less than ten seconds.
And indeed, it was so. Less than ten seconds later, Kameda appeared carrying a large food box stacked very high. Seeing the white paper floating at the door, although he was a bit surprised, his movements weren't affected in the slightest.
He walked silently to the side of the door. "Lady Konan, do you need this subordinate to set the table?"
"No need." Alex controlled several sheets of white paper to lift the food box, turning to fly back into the room. "You may leave. Unless it's urgent, do not disturb."
"Yes, this subordinate strictly obeys Lady Konan's orders."
The cool voice transmitted into his mind. Kameda didn't lift his head until the door closed. He had to tell Honoka and the others immediately not to disturb Lady Konan. At the same time, Sky Ninjas had to be arranged on both sides of the corridor; not even a fly or mosquito could fly outside Lady Konan's room. To avoid disturbing Lady Konan's peace.
Inside the room.
Alex controlled the white paper to take out plates of delicious dishes from the food box, no less than ten, filling the wooden table. Porridge plus various exquisite side dishes—a very sumptuous breakfast. It had color, smell, and taste. The living room was filled with fragrance.
"Smells good." Just as it was set up, Konan finished washing up and came to the living room. Looking at the colorful breakfast on the table, her appetite was instantly aroused. She had consumed too much yesterday and indeed needed to eat to replenish energy.
"Eat quickly." Alex handed chopsticks to the seated Konan, laughing. "Kameda is indeed a talent. With him around, the food every day is never repetitive. These dishes are not only delicious but also healthy and nutritious."
"Kameda is indeed worry-free."
Konan nodded, picking up a piece of fresh bamboo shoot and chewing carefully with the porridge.
"After eating and replenishing energy, we'll start the final bloodline fusion."
Alex finished speaking and stopped talking, focusing on feeding Konan. The morning was tranquil and warm, putting one at ease.
Half an hour later.
Konan finished breakfast and rested briefly. Standing up, she looked at Alex. "Alex, let's start."
"Okay." Alex nodded. "But to be safe, let's activate the sealing barrier first."
Rustle, rustle!
Four sheets of white paper landed in the four corners of the living room respectively, emitting strong Chakra fluctuations.
"Next..." Alex shouted low. "Rise for me—Four Red Yang Formation!!"
As his voice fell, four fiery red light curtains shot out from the white papers instantly, completely enveloping the entire living room. As the "Four Red Yang Formation" that only four Hokage-level ninjas could use together, its protection and toughness were naturally extremely strong.
"Then..." With a thought from Alex, sheets of white paper floated out from his body. Wrapping around the two of them, they formed an airtight white paper space.
A cube instantly appeared in the center of the living room. Rows of black runes twisted on the surface, emitting strong sealing fluctuations and even spatial attributes. The whole thing looked both real and illusory, with overlapping shadows, as if wandering between the void and reality.
This was an extremely strong spatial sealing barrier created by Alex, combining the full set of Uzumaki clan sealing jutsu and the spatial essence understood from that black fragment. It was almost equivalent to being half-independent of reality and half-integrated into the void. Its ability to isolate aura and provide protection was stronger than the Four Red Yang Formation.
Inside the black and white cube. Fluorescent white light enveloped them; it didn't appear dim at all.
"Alex..." Konan looked at the four walls in surprise. She could clearly feel how solid and powerful it was. It could be called absolute defense; she hadn't expected Alex to come up with this.
Alex floated in front of her. "Among all ninjutsu and messy abilities in the Ninja World, sealing jutsu is the most top-tier."
"After obtaining the full set of Uzumaki sealing jutsu from Konoha and copying it, I gained an essential understanding and application of sealing jutsu."
"Creating this sealing barrier is also for insurance. The fusion of the final bloodline must absolutely not be disturbed, or all previous efforts will be wasted."
The tone of the last sentence was serious.
Konan took a light breath, her face equally serious. "Let's start. Fuse the final Hyuga bloodline."
