He was in Konoha, and his domineering aura was overflowing.

"Aba Aba."

Glancing at the corner from which the strange noise was coming, the young Yin-Yang Master's eyes were glazed over for some reason, his speech was slurred, and saliva was dripping from his mouth.

Chapter 114 Mystery of the Kingdom

Ultimately, the shikigami of the ninja world all exist within the system of chakra and natural energy.

The Fifty Strings, with its comprehensive enhancement of Yin and Yang attributes, has strictly transcended this system and is a free spirit capable of touching upon anything.

The Heavenly Evil Woman's state was inherently special. Regardless of her state a thousand years ago, she was now at least leaning towards a spirit.

Coincidentally, Isogen's mastery of Yin Release was enough to easily defeat the Uchiha clan currently guarding Konoha.

For now, he can't compare to Madara Uchiha, after all, he is the most special generation in a thousand years.

Even if Tianxie Nu is special, it's only in terms of age. In terms of raw strength, from Wushixian's perspective, she can't compare to either Dazhuzi or Wuwang.

That makes sense.

Excluding the most unique members of the Otsutsuki clan, the strongest individuals nurtured in the ninja world are probably between the level of Super Kage and Six Paths. If Tenjaku were strong enough, she definitely wouldn't be alive today.

The first bird to stick its head out gets shot; when the Otsutsuki descends upon the ninja world, the first to be eliminated will definitely be the top-ranking group.

"Is that all?" Kushina squatted down, curiously examining the shikigami created by Tenjaku-onna.

As for Isogen using Onmyoji techniques to create shikigami, that's no big deal.

The longer she spent with him, the more she felt that Wushu was not human.

The Yin-Yang Escape Technique is said to grant mastery of all the secrets of ninjutsu in the world, but no one has ever truly achieved it before.

However, by the time they reach fifty strings, they are proficient in everything and this phenomenon continues to rise.

“No matter what, a shikigami can’t escape the system of the ninja world, even though she mainly uses natural energy,” Igarashi casually remarked.

"Natural energy... I heard Tsunade say that mixing natural energy and chakra in the right proportions can extract Sage Chakra. Can you use Sage Mode now?"

Kushina was extremely curious about this.

In the ninja world, those who can use Sage Techniques are called Sages.

That's true in a certain sense.

But those immortals seem too cheap to Wu Shixian.

and.

"Didn't Grandma Mito tell you that I was able to manipulate natural energy to perform magic a long time ago?" Igogami asked doubtfully.

"...Shouldn't you have said that yourself?!"

Isogen pouted: "If there's no use for it, how can it be displayed in the village? Blow up the Hokage Building? I have no objection to that."

"...Let's forget it and leave some funds for the village."

Isogen shrugged and placed his hand on the head of the crouching Tenjaku-onna shikigami.

Brain retrieval surgery initiated!

Having instructed the ninjas of the Yamanaka clan for several years, he could reproduce 80% of their signature ninjutsu, the Fifty Strings, even if he couldn't replicate it 100%.

It must be said that there is a reason why the Ino-Shika-Cho clan has been able to survive in the ninja world to this day.

As long as the inheritance continues and the current trend continues, even if the secret techniques cannot be integrated into the bloodline to become a bloodline limit, a half-bloodline limit can still be generated, naturally standing at the end of others' ranks in a certain field of Yin-Yang Escape.

The memories of the Heavenly Evil Woman are not of much use.

Her methods are so advanced that they can be easily copied with a glance, given Wuxian's current mastery of Yin and Yang, and valuable clues are extremely rare.

Few things could pique the interest of Gojūgen, and with the passage of time and the changing times, they all disappeared long ago.

After all, the ninja world had experienced the Divine Tree incident before, so this outcome was inevitable.

"Done, let's go." After confirming that there was really no information worth paying attention to, Isogen didn't dwell on it anymore. With a wave of his hand, he sent the Tenjaku shikigami into the shadows to act as a guard.

During this time, everyone worked together to uncover the wealth that the Rose City Lord had hidden in the City Lord's Mansion.

The immense wealth made the dejected Kakuzu green with envy.

The monk stared wide-eyed at the heavy treasure in his hands.

"Really?!"

Sarutobi Shikato glared at him unhappily.

"What my older brother said is truer than gold!"

The monk smiled ingratiatingly, "Young brother, you're right. It's just that this humble monk's thoughts are flawed!"

Once Sarutobi Shikato had looked away, the surviving samurai approached the monk and said thankfully, "Thank goodness we didn't argue. Tsk, what a pity about that little shrine maiden."

He originally wanted to use his extensive experience in picking up girls to stage a thrilling love story here, but now he's turned into fertilizer to nourish the earth.

The monk rolled his eyes: "You've already won by escaping with your life, why are you thinking about anything else?"

"However..."

He weighed the treasure in his hand and grinned, "Although I was a little frightened, the result is good. Come on, let me invite you to have some fun in the red-light district."

The samurai's eyes lit up.

The image of the beautiful shrine maiden was instantly forgotten.

When Igogaku found Sakumo Hatake, he was guarding Kakuzu, who was bound hand and foot. When Igogaku came over, Sakumo asked about the handling of Kakuzu.

Ichigen looked at Kakuzu.

This guy is quite capable, and most importantly, he's very good at manipulating people's emotional fluctuations.

All you need to do is swirl a bright green banknote in front of him and then take it away, and you can easily make him explode. He's a secret ninja with a long lifespan; he's practically a perpetual motion machine.

He extended his right index finger with a chakra scalpel to trim the nails on his left index finger.

The fifty-string spoke slowly and deliberately: "Are you planning to follow me, or do you want me to find your treasury, spend all your money, and then use the Evil Earth Reincarnation to summon you back and tell you how it felt after using it?"

Kakuzu subconsciously followed the vision of the future architecture described by Gyūgen.

He trembled violently, his eyes filled with terror.

You devil!

"...What can I get by following you?" This question was Kakuzu's last act of stubbornness as an old man over eighty years old.

"Seeing the money grow, I know your hobby is making money, and watching the numbers in your account grow is the greatest kindness I can show you."

After a brief moment of contemplation, Kakuzu finally lowered his proud head.

There is no way.

The future depicted by the fifty strings is terrifying.

Moreover, he had no doubt that fifty strings could do it.

Although he was a cunning man with multiple burrows, he never kept all his money in one basket.

However, this team includes members of the Yamanaka clan and a Jonin with three tomoe. If he doesn't agree, Isogen can make him speak up on his own.

As for whether it's shameful to obey a young person's orders.

His longevity is not solely due to the Earth Grudge Fear; caution is the foundation of ninjas.

Secondly, he saw the figure of a person in Ishigaki.

Satomi was pleased with Kakuzu's pragmatism and decided to let him earn money outside when he was free, and then transfer the money he earned into a designated account.

In principle, this account belongs to Kakuzu, and the money in it is also earned by him.

But now the principles are in his hands.

Moreover, given Kakuzu's strength and the vastness of the ninja world, as long as he doesn't encounter those few freaks, he can basically escape unscathed.

Even if the information about the Earth Grudge Fear is leaked, Kakuzu is still a Kage-level expert.

"My lord, when are we going to the capital?" Kakuzu asked impatiently as soon as he was freed from his bonds.

Although it wouldn't be a disservice for him to work under a promising genius like Isogen.

But he could have been more free.

All of this can be attributed to those stingy and despicable nobles!

Sanctions!

The inherently evil nobles must be punished!

The blood and gore gathered around the fifty strings, and many people's eyes held a faint burning desire.

Wu Shigen put his hands in his pockets and pondered for a moment.

"Hmm... since there's a native god here, as the capital of the Land of Fire, and now a gathering place for nobles, there should be one too, right?"

Shikigami, eh?

When he collected the first shikigami into his shadow, his deep-seated collecting obsession began to surface.

There's also the Hidden Cloud Village, which they've contacted.

Since the person is not in Rose City, with the speed of a ninja, it shouldn't be a problem for them to reach the capital of the Land of Fire in this ample preparation time, right?

At that very moment, in Konoha Village, Hiruzen Sarutobi, who was gazing at the Women's Hot Spring, suddenly felt a twitch between his brows.

I put down the binoculars and turned to look out the window.

Fallen leaves flutter in the wind, stirring the soul.

A ninja's subconscious or sixth sense is very strong.

The powerful sixth sense developed by a ninja can foreshadow a major event that is about to happen or has already happened.

No major incidents have occurred in Konoha recently, so...

"Is it over there with Yu Ge? With Shuo Mao following along, there shouldn't be any major problems, right?"

The Rose City Lord's Mansion, now reduced to ruins, was being transported by a ship bound for the not-so-distant capital of the Land of Fire.

Chapter 115 Junjie Fujiwara

As the car sped up the mountain, Black Zetsu looked warily in the direction the group had gone.

"The technique of turning the native gods of the ninja world into shikigami, along with his powerful sealing techniques, makes this guy a complete counter to me and White Zetsu."

He and White Zetsu fear nothing except powerful sealing techniques.

This was the first time he had personally witnessed the mastery of the sealing technique of the Fifty Strings, and it was indeed well-deserved.

Despite not having the bloodline of the Uzumaki clan, they were able to achieve such terrifying accomplishments.

Is it another Tobirama Senju, or the awakening of some hidden lineage?

That's not all. If he wasn't mistaken, the action after the fifth string was reading the memories of the Heavenly Evil Woman, right?

He had no recollection of the Heavenly Evil Woman. If he hadn't happened to see her later while traveling through the ninja world, searching for a way to break Kaguya Otsutsuki's seal, he wouldn't have known that such a person existed in the ninja world.

But just because he has no memory of Tianxie Nu doesn't mean that Tianxie Nu has no memory of her mother.

If the other party knew the truth about the ninja world—no, the memories gathered from Dongping and Xicui could not possibly piece together the complete truth.

It is as easy for someone with fifty strings of intelligence to discover something is wrong as eating or drinking.

"This guy will definitely become an obstacle to my resurrection of my mother!" Black Zetsu took a deep breath, his eyes sharp.
