Chapter 186 A Real Bountiful Harvest (Second Update)

"I didn't expect Hawking to appear at such unpredictable times, and without Naruto and Jiraiya needing to summon him. Let's retreat!"

Obito winked at Zetsu and said something.

At this moment, although Nagato's eye power and chakra were almost exhausted, he was also seriously injured.

Zetsu's strength is definitely no match for Konan, and Sasuke's relationship with him is one of mutual exploitation; he might not necessarily help her.

Therefore, given the current situation, it is natural to maintain the previous relationship and not fall out.

He never expected that Hawking would break his most confident ethereal form in one move, and that his body would suffer such a severe injury.

On the contrary, Xiao Nan ran back unharmed.

"When I left Konoha, I saw that the Five Kage Alliance team had also arrived in Konoha."

At that moment, Konan, standing next to Nagato, gave a reminder.

Nagato nodded:

"Alright, let's retreat then."

"I will suck you all into the Kamui Dimension, and then transfer you away from here."

Obito spoke up.

Nagato shook his head directly:

"No need, Xiao Nan will use her paper magic to take me away."

Zetsu's actions just now had aroused his suspicion. He would not entrust his safety to Obito until his eye power and chakra were restored.

The only person he could trust in this world was Xiao Nan.

"Okay, then we'll go back to the base and wait for you."

Obito didn't insist any further, and with the help of Kamui, he disappeared from the spot with Sasuke.

Jue also retreated back underground.

"Nagato, let's go too."

Konan carried the emaciated Nagato on her back, used a scroll to retract the instruments that helped Nagato control the Six Paths of Pain, activated Paper Release to sprout a pair of wings from her back, and quickly flew out of the cave and disappeared into the sky.

Clinging to Konan's back, Nagato asked:

"Tell me, what happened when you captured the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki?"

"We met Hawking, and then..."

Konan recounted in detail how she and Obito captured the Nine-Tails, encountered Stephen Hawking, and ultimately escaped.

After listening, Nagato murmured:

"It now appears that the plan will have to be postponed."

Hawking from Konoha could appear at any time, and as long as the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki is in Konoha, they can no longer easily take action.

Moreover, he already felt that Tobi, who claimed to be Uchiha Madara, had ulterior motives, and now he was even more certain of it.

If Xiao Nan hadn't arrived in time, he felt that she might have already attacked him.

Jue himself was the one who found him with Afei back then. Although he was a member of Akatsuki, he was actually Afei's subordinate.

"Oh no, we're too late!"

Not long after Konan and Nagato left the cave, Darui and the others also found it.

However, upon closer inspection, they discovered that Xiao's group had already fled.

Over the past month, it wasn't that they hadn't been diligent in their search; they had access to the intelligence networks of the five Kage villages, as well as various sensory ninjas to assist them. It's fair to say that they could find even the smallest fly.

Unfortunately, I always fall just short by one step.

What they didn't know was that Akatsuki had Zetsu, the strongest and oldest intelligence gatherer in the ninja world, and Obito, who could teleport. Unless they showed up on their own initiative, they simply couldn't be found.

The next day, in the Hokage's office in Konoha.

"Haha, as expected of Lady Tsunade, so generous. If you ever need any help in the future, just let me know."

From this day forward, anyone who dares to cross Konoha is crossing me, Stephen Hawking!

Hawking scanned the entire box of ninjutsu scrolls that Tsunade had given him as a token of her gratitude, and immediately patted his chest and laughed heartily.

To be honest, he knew that Tsunade had always been a very straightforward and decisive person.

Just when everyone else decided to protect Naruto as a Jinchūriki, Tsunade felt that Naruto was trustworthy and could take the lead in protecting everyone.

But I didn't expect him to be so decisive.

He had been thinking about how to bring up the topic of payment for helping Tsunade yesterday when he arrived.

As soon as he arrived in the village, he was invited to the Hokage's office by the Anbu, and Tsunade handed him a box full of ninjutsu scrolls.

While he had already acquired some of the ninjutsu from Danzo's memories, there were also many ninjutsu he didn't have.

This even includes Tsunade's self-created Yin Seal, Hundred Healings Technique, and various medical ninjutsu.

Although Tsunade's strength is not particularly high, her medical ninjutsu is absolutely unmatched.

Especially the ninjutsu she created herself.

Like the Yin Seal, which stores chakra and allows the body to be controlled, regardless of actual age, this ninjutsu allows the body to be at any age.

Children, adults, and the elderly can adjust the settings according to their own preferences.

Although Hawking's Saiyan bloodline allowed him to maintain a youthful state for longer than normal people, it was still not as convenient as the Yin Seal.

Furthermore, breaking the Yin Seal allows the release of chakra to perform the Creation Rebirth: Hundred Healings Technique.

This technique can increase output, but Hawking didn't care about that little bit of output. What he cared about was that when he was under this technique, his body's recovery ability would be greatly enhanced.

Normal injuries can be healed instantly. Even if the body is split in two, as long as there is enough chakra, it can be put back together and reconnected.

The downside is that it consumes a lot of chakra.

But was Stephen Hawking someone who lacked chakra?

Besides Tsunade's secret ninjutsu, he also saw some of Jiraiya's hair-related ninjutsu.

Techniques such as the Lion's Mane Technique, the Thousand Needles Technique, and the Earthly Treasury Needle Technique.

As for the normal five-element ninjutsu, there are even more.

Finally, he also saw a top-tier ninjutsu that he felt could significantly enhance his combat power in his current state.

The Eight Gates Formation!

This is a top-tier ninjutsu that temporarily grants immense power by releasing the channels that bind chakra within the human body.

With all eight gates open, Guy, a Jonin-level ninja, can go toe-to-toe with Madara, a Six Paths-level ninja, increasing his strength by more than several dozen times.

However, the conditions for learning this ninjutsu are extremely demanding. One must train their body beyond its limits, otherwise they will not be able to open the Eight Gates or withstand the side effects of opening the Eight Gates.

Moreover, even if all eight gates are opened, one will still die from exhaustion of life force.

But this was nothing to Hawking, because with his level of training, his physical body had long surpassed countless limits.

As for the side effects of opening all eight gates, his body should be able to withstand them. If he can't withstand them now, he can in the future. If all else fails, he can transform into a giant ape and open all eight gates. With the vitality of a giant ape, he shouldn't be unable to withstand it.

Moreover, if he learns Tsunade's Yin Seal, he can also counteract the side effects of the Eight Gates.

"By the way, when I arrived, I saw that many houses on the street were damaged in the battle and are being rebuilt. I'm here to help you out."

In a great mood, Hawking offered to help extra.

Upon hearing this, Tsunade laughed heartily.

"Thank you very much!"

She knew that Hawking had the ability to restore damaged objects to their original state.

With Hawking's help, Konoha can save a lot of money on rebuilding its houses.
