Ninja World: I'm really a support-type ninja

The Slug Immortal explained, "In the Acid Immortal Elixir, your body will be continuously corroded, and at the same time, the natural energy in the Acid Immortal Elixir will naturally blend into your flesh and blood."

"It is precisely because of the Acidic Immortal Elixir that you do not need to worry about your body turning to stone. This may be the greatest advantage of my Wet Bone Forest Immortal Technique."

"What's the drawback...?" Although Akira Hatake already had the answer in his mind, he still asked it out of the blue.

"The drawbacks are also obvious. Although a cultivator's body will not turn to stone, the constant destruction and reorganization of flesh and blood naturally puts an absurdly high burden on the cultivator's body."

"Even with my help, cultivators still need to rely on their own life energy when their bodies are reconstructed."

"Moreover, once a cultivator enters the acidic immortal liquid to begin cultivating immortal techniques, they absolutely cannot come out unless they have completed their cultivation."

"If a cultivator were to leave the Acidic Elixir because they could not withstand the pressure, their body would immediately turn to stone."

"Therefore, the immortal techniques of my Wet Bone Forest are very dangerous. Without a strong physique, strong willpower, and strong recovery ability, it is impossible for humans to successfully cultivate them."

"Then I'm all set!"

Akira Hatake immediately answered, his eyes filled with a determined look.

Just kidding, the life energy currently existing in Akira Hatake's body is equivalent to that of dozens of Hashirama Senju.

Furthermore, Akira Hatake's own recovery ability is several times stronger than Hashirama Senju's. There is no reason why Hashirama Senju, who is inferior to Akira Hatake, could master the Sage Mode of Shikkotsu Forest, while Akira Hatake could not.

but……

"Slug Sage, do I have to take everything off?"

"You were wearing clothes while taking a bath?"

The Slug Sage looked at Akira Hatake with great surprise; he hadn't expected Hatake to ask such a question.

Scratching his head somewhat embarrassedly, Akira Hatake didn't say anything more.

It's not that Akira Hatake was too ashamed to speak, but rather that he couldn't speak.

Moreover, this time the cultivation of immortal arts is definitely more dangerous than the one the White Snake Immortal did.

Since once his clothes were off, the equipment that Akira Hatake was carrying no longer met the condition of being "carried on his person".

With many pieces of equipment malfunctioning, Akira Hatake's life-saving equipment was naturally also unusable. If he died during this training, then he would truly be dead...

Moreover, if the equipment fails to function, Akira Hatake's many bonuses will be lost, making his subsequent cultivation process extremely dangerous.

"You don't need to be embarrassed. I'm not human, and I'm not interested in your naked bodies."

Seeing that Akira Hatake was reluctant to take off his clothes, the Slug Sage clearly misunderstood something.

Upon hearing this, Akira Hatake shook his head. "I'm not worried about those things."

After saying that, Akira Hatake placed the huge sealing scroll he was carrying on his back on the ground.

Just as he expected, once the massive sealing scroll left Akira Hatake's body, all the enhancements applied to his body naturally vanished without a trace.

In an instant, Akira Hatake's life energy, which had been steadily recovering, plummeted, and his evolving life signs came to a standstill.

Moreover, Akira Hatake's body also began to deteriorate rapidly because the life energy within him could no longer meet the needs of his vital signs to continue evolving.

However, this process only lasted for a moment before Akira Hatake returned to his previous physical state.

Akira Hatake was holding a chakra chain, but the other end of the chain was no longer a human body; instead, it had become the giant sealing scroll.

“Slug Immortal, as you can see, my body is currently at a critical stage. Without the help of this sealing scroll, I may die soon.”

"So, when I enter the Sour Immortal Elixir, can I maintain this state?"

He waved his hand at the Slug Sage, showing her the purplish-red chakra chain in his hand.

Looking at Akira Hatake's palm, the Slug Sage hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

"it is good!"

Akira Hatake's eyes were filled with excitement; he was determined to learn the immortal techniques passed down in Shikkotsu Forest!

Chapter 336 Long Time No See.

One word: Pain!

It hurts so much!

This was the only sensation transmitted to Akira Hatake by the nerves throughout his body after he entered the Sour Immortal Elixir.

It's a tearing pain, and it's not just pain, but also a tingling, itchy sensation as the body is constantly being repaired.

Just as promised, the Slug Sage split into many small slugs the moment Akira Hatake entered the Sour Sage Liquid, tightly enveloping his body.

After the corrosive nature of the Sour Immortal Elixir corrodes Akira Hatake's skin and flesh, the Slug Immortal will help Akira Hatake repair himself.

Through repeated cycles of change, Akira Hatake fully experienced what a bipolar reversal meant, and what it meant to go from heaven to hell in a second.

In short, Akira Hatake will not face any life-threatening danger, nor will he experience any petrification reaction.

But correspondingly, the pain mixed with numbness and itching is the most unbearable.

However, Akira Hatake gritted his teeth and persevered. He could feel every cell in his body happily absorbing the enormous natural energy in the Acid Immortal Liquid.

Moreover, because Akira Hatake himself has a very high level of vital signs, the speed and amount of natural energy he absorbs far exceeds that of ordinary people.

With increased speed and quantity, the amount of life energy that Akira Hatake's body can hold naturally also increases.

This made the Slug Sage secretly gasp, realizing that Akira Hatake was far superior to Hashirama Senju.

To be honest, Akira Hatake is now undoubtedly the number one ninja in the world.

If Hashirama Senju were still alive, then the title of God of Shinobi would need to be changed.

Moreover, Akira Hatake, who was soaking in the sour elixir, could clearly feel that the affinity of all the cells in his body for natural energy was constantly increasing.

Akira Hatake had a premonition that if he successfully mastered Shikkotsu-in's Sage Mode, he would possess an inexhaustible supply of Sage Chakra.

The natural energy affinity at the cellular level is truly incredible!

And it is precisely because of this that Hashirama Senju's Sage Mode could last for such a long time, dragging out his battle with Madara Uchiha for about three days.

If Akira Hatake can complete his Sage Mode training in Shikkotsu Forest, then he will definitely be more outstanding than Hashirama Senju!

Now, Akira Hatake truly understands which of the three holy lands' inherited immortal techniques is superior.

If each of the three holy lands has a human who has mastered the perfect immortal mode inherited by their respective holy land.

Without a doubt, when it comes to a real fight, the immortal techniques passed down in the Wet Bone Forest will be far stronger.

The reason is simple: the immortal techniques inherited by Shigu Forest are more comprehensive. They combine advantages in recovery, endurance, and stamina. Even if they cannot kill quickly, they can definitely wear someone down.

In contrast, the magical arts passed down from Mount Myoboku and Ryuchi Cave have more obvious disadvantages.

First, let's talk about the sage techniques of Mount Myōboku. Its greatest advantage is that they are simple and easy to learn. Among the sage techniques passed down from the three holy lands, it is definitely the one with the widest audience.

However, aside from its advantage of being simple and easy to learn, the sage techniques passed down from Mount Myōboku are somewhat lacking in both power and endurance compared to the other two schools.

In terms of power, the immortal techniques passed down in Ryuchi Cave are undoubtedly number one, but they are not without their flaws.

Although ninjutsu in the ninja world does not necessarily follow the law of conservation of energy, the price to pay for gaining great power naturally increases accordingly.

The immortal techniques passed down in Ryuchi Cave are incredibly powerful, and the natural energy seeds can also autonomously absorb and store free natural energy from the outside world during their leisure time, so that they can be used in battle.

However, the natural energy stored in a single natural energy seed is naturally limited, and in the event of a high-intensity, protracted war, that little natural energy is merely a drop in the ocean.

The immortal techniques inherited by the Wet Bone Forest are different. Every cell in the body is a storage point for natural energy. How much can 60 trillion human cells store?

countless!

Moreover, the magic of Shikko Forest has another advantage: it becomes stronger when facing stronger opponents.

Of course, this "encountering a strong opponent" does not refer to the enemy, but to the user themselves.

Take Akira Hatake himself as an example. With his current physical level, his cells are naturally very powerful, and he can store more natural energy.

In the event of a major battle, Akira Hatake could disregard the issue of attrition and unleash a wide variety of sage techniques.

Very powerful. It can only be said that the immortal techniques passed down in the Wet Bone Forest are truly powerful!

However, this strength comes at a huge price for cultivators; otherwise, there wouldn't have been only one person in the entire history of the ninja world who could use Ryuchi Cave Sage Technique!

Of course, Akira Hatake can be considered the second one.

However, as Hatake Akira's training continued, the slug sage who was attached to him and helping him heal his body began to feel sorry for him.

The volume of the sour elixir is decreasing rapidly, and the natural energy within the pool is also declining at a breakneck pace.

"Just how much natural energy does this little guy, Akira Hatake, need to absorb?!"

The Slug Immortal was impatient. Although she was happy to let Hatake Akira cultivate the immortal techniques of Ryuchi Cave, she was not happy to let Hatake Akira absorb all the natural energy in the Acid Immortal Liquid Pool.

The Sour Immortal Liquid Pool is the essence of the entire Wet Bone Forest; otherwise, the Slug Immortal wouldn't have chosen this place as his cave dwelling.

It is important to know that the accumulation of natural energy is very difficult, and the production of the sour immortal liquid is naturally not easy either. Without thousands of years of accumulation, it would be impossible to achieve the concentration we have today.

But no one knows what Hatake Akira ate to grow up like this. Despite his thin body, he was able to contain so much natural energy from the Sour Immortal Liquid Pool.

The Slug Sage felt sorry for him, but Akira Hatake was at a crucial moment in his cultivation of sage techniques, so she couldn't leave without permission, nor could she urge him on her own.

Because of this, although Akira Hatake is still in great pain, his strength is visibly increasing.

“Almost, just almost!”

Akira Hatake mentally encouraged himself, knowing that with his level of control over his body, he could easily ascertain the specific condition within his body.

Of the 60 trillion cells in Akira Hatake's body, more than half have now completed the absorption of natural energy, each one plump and glistening, like a ripe grape.

Holding his breath, Akira Hatake couldn't help but speed up the absorption of the natural energy from the Sour Immortal Elixir.

At the same time, Akira Hatake's feeling of pain and pleasure deepened, causing the nerves in his brain to throb incessantly.

However, the Slug Sage's mood at this moment was completely opposite to that of Akira Hatake.

As the water level in the Sour Immortal Liquid Pool continued to drop, the Slug Immortal's small eyes became even smaller. Although it was impossible to discern her specific expression, it was clear at a glance that the Slug Immortal was anything but calm.

It hurts!

And so, Akira Hatake was absorbing natural energy with a bittersweet mix of pain and pleasure, while the Slug Master was painfully helping Akira, the very culprit who was causing his "assets" to dwindle.

……

While Akira Hatake went to Shikkotsu Forest to train in Sage Mode, Jiraiya and Tsunade also woke up from their training.

Where is Ming?
