I founded the "Bragging Cult" in Naruto.

Chapter 569 The advantage of "borrowing" is that you can directly benefit from other people's labor for free.

Something's not right!

In the middle of the night, Rasa suddenly sat up, threw off the covers, and got out of bed. Karura, who was beside her, was also startled awake. Quickly fading her sleepiness and exhaustion, she asked worriedly, "What happened?"

Luo Sha rubbed his dark circles and said, "There's a problem with the southward perception."

"Has the enemy invaded?"

Karura struggled to sit up in bed, supporting herself with one hand on her large, soon-to-be-born belly, and tried to get out of bed by lifting the blanket with the other, but was stopped by Rasa.

Luo Sha gently massaged Jialu Luo's abnormally swollen ankle and said, "I'm not sure if it's an enemy, but some of the gold dust has lost its sensation. You don't need to get up."

"Do you want me to sense it for you?"

Gallo gently pulled her foot back, even pulling the blanket over it, as if she didn't want her husband to see her ankle, which looked like a steamed bun.

As her pregnancy progressed, her ankles became increasingly swollen, and now she can no longer even fit into her usual shoes.

Not only her ankles, but also her waist, hips, and thighs have undergone some unpleasant changes. Now she can't even squat down and stand up independently, but she doesn't want Luo Sha to know about these things, as it always feels... strange.

Seeing his wife withdraw her foot, Rasa put his hand behind Karura's waist and supported her, gesturing for her to lie down slowly. He then said, "No need. Your sensory range isn't that far, and it's not suitable for you to mobilize chakra right now."

"Perhaps the chakra in the gold dust has simply run out. I'll observe it myself; you should continue resting."

After Karura lay down, the two naturally held hands. Rasa used her other hand to tidy up the blankets. After tidying up the blankets, Rasa took Karura's hand and put her hand into the blankets as well.

Karura understood Rasa's meaning, gently released her hand, and then closed her eyes. Although she was no longer sleepy, she still didn't want Rasa to worry.

Rasa didn't expose him, but instead began to put on his ninja equipment. Of course, compared to ordinary ninjas, as a Magnet Release ninja, what he needed most was to put on his shoes.

He then took a few more scrolls and left the tent.

He didn't rush to the scene of the accident immediately, after all, it was an unknown place. Don't easily face unknown opponents; this is a compulsory course for every ninja.

Upon arriving outside the tent, Luo Sha formed a hand seal and began to sense his own gold dust. When not in combat, he was accustomed to spreading out his gold dust as a sensing barrier.

However, all sensory techniques have the same flaw: the greater the distance, the lower the accuracy. Of course, increasing chakra output and focusing on sensory perception can compensate for some of this.

Rasa is now increasing his chakra output towards the area where the barrier is broken. If the distant gold dust is only being activated because of chakra depletion, then this method can also be used to try to activate it.

But soon, Rasa's expression turned serious, because his chakra not only failed to activate the gold dust that had disappeared within his sensory vision, but the other gold dust was also being continuously devoured.

This is definitely an enemy tactic! And no matter how Rasa looks at it, it seems to be his own Magnet Release.

The emphasis on "his own" Magnet Release is because there are different Magnet Release techniques. For example, the Third Kazekage's Magnet Release was Iron Sand Magnet Release, while Rasa's was Gold Sand Magnet Release.

At the same time, there is his wife, Karura, whose ninjutsu skills have surpassed those of sand manipulation and have also borrowed many principles of magnet release. There are also barriers between different magnet release techniques.

Rasa couldn't use chakra to penetrate iron sand. Although he could barely control iron sand, he couldn't do it like the Third Kazekage. Similarly, the Third Kazekage couldn't control gold sand.

Moreover, even with the same type of Magnet Release, because the manipulated iron or gold sand already contains the original user's chakra, it is difficult for other Magnet Release ninjas to make these manipulated iron or gold sands their own.

Unless it's a Magnet Release chakra with extremely high similarity, like the same chakra as Rasa.

Of course, there is another possibility: the opponent's mastery of Magnet Release and control over chakra is far superior to one's own.

Regardless of the type, it is quite troublesome for Rasa. The best way to deal with such an opponent is not to fight him.

Without hesitation, Luo Sha clasped his hands together, and the gold dust hidden beneath the quicksand quickly retreated.

In the distance, Tatsuma, who was happily collecting gold dust, was taken aback and his lips twitched.

This Luo Sha is rather stingy.

He looked back at the gold dust he had collected; it was far from enough. Although he had searched a large area, the gold dust was not dense enough to meet his needs.

Tatsuma can directly utilize Rasa's gold dust, after all, he has the Magnet Release blueprint, the Magnet Release talent of Shukaku the One-Tailed Beast. As long as the chakra belonging to Rasa is removed from the gold dust, he can replace it with his own chakra.

The reason he came to Luo Sha instead of digging for gold himself is that he is neither a miner nor a mining expert; he doesn't know how to do the technical work of gold prospecting.

Moreover, the gold content in a single gold mine is like a lottery; it's more likely to be a consolation prize like "thank you for your patronage," with a very small chance of actually finding a large gold mine. Therefore, it's better to just "borrow" some placer gold from Luosha.

However, Tatsuma did not expect Rasa to be so sensitive. After thinking for a second, Tatsuma made a decision: since Rasa would not "lend" him, he would go to her door and "ask" her for some.

Under Tatsuma's control, the gold dust coalesced into the shape of a surfboard. Tatsuma stood on it and, with the gold dust surfboard, began to glide rapidly across the vast ocean.

"Magnetic Release! Floating Gold Rush!"

Luo Sha in the camp frowned, because he also sensed that the attackers were moving so fast that his gold dust retreat could not keep up with the speed of the invasion, and his gold dust was still being plundered.

At this speed, in another ten minutes or so, the attackers will probably rush into the camp.

So arrogant, how many lives would it take to see them get away with this?

Luo Sha frowned, maintaining control of the gold dust, and moved quickly back to his tent.

Karura stopped pretending to be asleep and opened her eyes. Seeing Rasa's serious expression, she was about to speak when Rasa said, "Karuura, protect yourself. No matter what happens later, don't come out."

"I"

"My due date is coming soon, and we have to be responsible for our child."

Rasa interrupted Karura, who pursed her lips and nodded, but her hands still began to form hand seals.

As he channeled his chakra, the sand on the ground slowly began to move, covering Rasa's body. Karura said, "You must be careful. You also have a responsibility for the child."

"I see."

Luo Sha nodded and left the tent. Under his control, a gold-plated hammer suddenly appeared in the camp and struck the alarm bell hard.

Hearing the alarm bell and the sounds of the Sand Ninjas starting to move around, Karura's heart clenched. Lately, she seemed to have become timid.

With her hand gently placed on her stomach, Karura hesitated for a long time before finally getting out of bed. She truly had to take responsibility for this unborn child, her and Rasa's first child.

With a wave of her hands, layers of quicksand formed a protective barrier, enveloping the entire tent. Unable to go to the battlefield, she could only try her best not to become a burden.

Just hold on a little longer, until the baby is born.

Outside, Rasa briefly explained that the camp was under attack. Inside the camp, all the Sand Ninja sprang into action, forming various formations to prepare for any potential enemy arrival.

However, they were still somewhat uncertain, because Luo Sha had not said how many people were attacking or who they were, but judging from Luo Sha's performance, this might be a difficult battle.

The reason why Luo Sha was vague was quite simple: he didn't know who the attackers were either.

In the entire Sand Village, you could count the number of people who could master Magnet Release on one hand. And among them, only Rasa remained who could use Magnet Release as a regular technique and possess considerable combat power.

A Magnet Release ninja suddenly appeared. Unless it was the Third Kazekage resurrected and changed from Iron Sand Magnet Release to Gold Sand Magnet Release, Rasa could hardly think of a second candidate.

As for the Magnet Release user who wasn't a registered ninja, whom Rasa had occasionally heard about in recent months, he never even considered it.

After all, that person's opponents were just some bandits, and at most a few wandering ninjas. One way to verify a person's strength is to see how strong the enemies he defeats are.

Let alone defeating the sand bandits with Magnet Release, even defeating them with Wood Release would be insignificant.

Luo Sha had no time to think too much, because the enemy was already upon them. Looking at the distant sand dunes, a large gold sand ship overturned, and everyone's expression changed.

Including Rasa, as a Magnet Release ninja, he understood what the scene before him represented. It meant that the newcomer's control over Magnet Release was even more refined than his own.

Magnetism seems to have high plasticity, but the volume of gold dust controlled by Magnetism is extremely small. To shape it into a precise shape, it requires meticulous control over every single grain of gold dust.

Such chakra control is something even Rasa himself couldn't achieve.

He prefers to use the high density of gold dust to launch wave-like attacks. Driven by enormous potential energy, even loose gold dust waves have the ability to bury everything.

But this Magnet Release ninja in front of us is even stronger.

The thought flashed through Luo Sha's mind. Even if he didn't want to admit it, it was the truth. He looked at the charging ships, clapped his hands, and the gold dust hidden under the quicksand surged.

"Magnetic Escape! Placer Gold City Wall!"

Luosha has already reached its limit, but even gold dust can only be formed into a rectangular city wall; as for more precise control, it cannot be achieved.

On the golden ship, looking at the sand gold city wall blocking the way, Chenma clapped his hands, and the golden ship began to transform with mechanical precision, like a Transformer.

"Magnetic Escape! Placer Gold Wall Curtain!"

"Bang!"

The golden ship transformed into a charging gold-flecked city wall, crashing into the gold-flecked city wall of Luosha. Under the incredulous gazes of countless people, the gold-flecked city wall of Luosha was easily shattered, and a gold-flecked city wall charged forward.

Even Rasa, who had been watching Tatsuma's manipulation of the gold dust, was astonished to see his scattered gold dust being instantly converted into his own.

The intruder took the gold from him as easily as an adult taking a pacifier from a baby's mouth.

Without Rasa's command, the Sand Ninja had already launched an attack on Tatsuma, who was gliding on the wall curtain. But Tatsuma clapped his hands together, and hundreds of neatly arranged sand soldiers appeared.

"Magnetic Release! The Wall of the Golden Army!"

"Land of Wind! Your emperor has returned!"
