I'm in Konoha, and I have ten skill slots.

Chapter 121 The Secret of Hashirama's Cells: Wood Release Completed

"Lord Hokage, I just spotted a strange white creature!"

While the third generation was gazing at the sky in thought.

The ANBU ninja reappeared, and this ANBU ninja was none other than Yamato, whom Shigure was looking for.

He had a cloud fish in a glass bottle!

I just got my hands on the third generation.

The third generation only saw a glimpse of white before the cloud fish turned into smoke and disappeared instantly.

Upon seeing this, the Third Generation immediately realized that something was wrong.

This rain is definitely not just a simple downpour.

"Immediately launch a search throughout Konoha to see if there are any more of those white things!"

Yamato's expression instantly turned serious. He couldn't quite understand. It was just a new kind of creature. There was no need to worry so much!

Such a small thing could be crushed with a flick of the wrist.

"This isn't a living being at all, it's ninjutsu!"

The Third Hokage's expression turned grave. "If I'm not mistaken, this should be some kind of reconnaissance ninjutsu!"

"It's so small and doesn't show any chakra fluctuations, so its detection range shouldn't be too wide, which means there must be more of these things!"

"Find them all quickly."

The third generation's order had just been given when Shigure emerged from the drainage ditch.

At that moment, Yu's figure re-formed in the alley!

Swish!

An ANBU ninja appeared directly in the alley.

Looking at the empty alley, the ANBU ninja sensed something was wrong. "Did I just see things wrong? I clearly saw someone here!"

Without lingering, he left immediately.

Shigure, who had used his teleportation technique, stood in front of this ANBU ninja.

He silently let out a breath!

'We almost got caught. We really shouldn't underestimate the ANBU ninjas!'

Even though I was being so careful, I still sensed it.

It's time to dispel the ninjutsu.

Shigure has released all the cloud fish. Several ninjas from the Anbu have just discovered a group of cloud fish swimming in a pond and are preparing to find a way to catch them.

But the next second, all these cloud fish vanished without a trace.

These ANBU ninjas quickly reported the news to the Third Hokage.

Hiruzen Sarutobi was in the Hokage's office, using a crystal sphere to survey the entire Hidden Leaf Village.

No problems were found.

"Could it be that I'm mistaken?"

But then a report came in that the thing had been found again, but it had suddenly disappeared.

Upon receiving this news, the Third Hokage was certain he hadn't misjudged the situation, but the question remained: who exactly was using this method to investigate Konoha?

Are they ninjas from an enemy village?

At this moment, Shigure, who had returned home, released his Transcendental Technique and also removed his Cloud Mask.

After his clone disappeared, Shigure lay on the bed to rest.

He was breathing silently.

On the way back, the number of ANBU ninjas tripled.

Even with Shigure's Transparent Release, it wouldn't be easy for him to get through the search of these Anbu ninjas.

However, tonight's operation was worthwhile.

Intercolumnar cells!

Sharingan!

Shiyu reaped two rewards at the same time!

"Great Sage! Analyze this for me immediately!"

"Analyze the interstitial cells!"

Upon receiving Shigure's order, the Great Sage immediately began analyzing the Hashirama cells in Shigure's possession.

Shigure's chakra transformed into threads that directly invaded the glass bottle, beginning a comprehensive analysis and calculation targeting Hashirama's cells.

[Great Sage: Analyzing and calculating the target interstitial cell]

[Analysis and Calculation Progress]

[1%]

While the analysis progressed by one percent, the calculation progress of the Wood Release technique on the other side increased by five percent.

This growth rate greatly excited Shiyu.

However, at the same time, within the Root organization base.

Danzo looked at the two items that were missing from his shelf.

'Hashirama cells, Sharingan!'

Someone has been here!

It's impossible for any ninja to get through the heavily guarded base to get here.

It's already difficult enough to infiltrate Konoha, let alone arrive at the Root organization's base unnoticed.

They even stole my things.

The possibility of this is almost zero.

The remaining possibility is that there is a traitor within the root organization.

But that's unlikely, since these Root ninjas are all under their control, how could there be traitors!

Danzo was puzzled by this.

The torrential rain outside gradually subsided.

As dawn broke, both the Root and Anbu ninjas had been busy all night, but neither side had made any progress.

Hiruzen and Danzo were both troubled.

Who on earth was it last night?!

However, at that moment, Shigure excitedly rushed out of Konoha Village.

After a night of analytical calculations, the analysis of the intercolumnar cells has reached 80%...

Meanwhile, the development and calculation progress of Wood Release has reached 80%.

Once the progress exceeds 50%, the progress on both sides tends to be consistent.

If things continue like this, I should be able to complete the analysis of Hashirama's cells before lunch today, and at the same time, I should be able to develop the Wood Release technique.

To avoid causing a commotion, Shigure arrived outside Konoha Village early in the morning.

I randomly picked a secluded and hidden place.

Quietly wait for the analytical calculation to finish.

[Great Sage: Analysis and Calculation of Target Interstitial Cells Completed]

[Wood Release calculation complete]

[Congratulations, host, on obtaining a new bloodline limit: Wood Release]

Wood Release complete.

Shi Yu opened her eyes, feeling the sudden changes within her body. Every cell seemed to be breathing, filled with the sensation of upgrading.

The natural energy that was originally absorbed into the cells seemed to be enhanced by the power of Wood Release, strengthening the Shigure cells themselves.

Now, Shigure finally understands the secret of Hashirama's cells.

"So that's how it is! So that's what makes the interstitial cells different!"
