Konoha, reported by the Fourth Hokage at the start.

Chapter 324 Water Release - Infiltration Technique

Upon reaching an altitude of ten thousand meters, the transparent figure solidified, revealing itself to be Li Yao's Water Release clone - Hozuki Mugetsu.

Li Yao's water-style clone raised his hand, and with a thought, his arm disappeared into the void. In his perception, there was not even a fluctuation of chakra, as if it had been blocked by something.

"I never expected that a Water Release technique at the Bloodline Elimination level would have such an unexpected effect!"

"Ha ha!"

Li Yao's Water Release clone laughed heartily, quite satisfied with his Water Release ability after being upgraded to the Bloodline Elimination level.

Half a month ago, on the very day that Black Zetsu set up the trap to kidnap Obito, Li Yao's Water Release clone finally succeeded in developing the Water Release Infiltration Technique, which he had been practicing for many years.

The strength of the Water Release chakra nature has finally been raised to the level of Kekkei Tota.

Because they were at a critical juncture in their breakthrough, and because Obito didn't give Kakashi one of his Sharingan eyes as he did in the original story.

This prevented Li Yao's water-style clone from leaving the Flying Thunder God mark on Obito in time, thus causing Obito to be lost after White Zetsu rescued him.

Li Yao's water-escape clone was initially somewhat annoyed.

However, when using the latest Water Release: Infiltration Technique to transform his body into an element, also known as the Water Transformation Technique, Li Yao's Water Release clone unexpectedly discovered a unique ability of the Infiltration Technique.

The Water Release technique, which is at the Bloodstained Elimination level, can penetrate metal and instantly dissolve it, indicating that its permeability is very strong, even stronger than Li Yao's Water Release clone expected.

After he used the Water Release technique of Infiltration to hydrate his body, his body seemed to be composed of micro-water particles that could penetrate everything.

These micro-water particles are so small that they seem to exist in another quantum space.

Once Li Yao's water-escape clones are transformed into water, he can control his body to permeate into all matter.

Including the air and the earth.

When Li Yao used the Water Release technique to transform his body into water and merge with the air, he gained a unique sensory ability. The air seemed to become one with him, becoming a part of his body.

He can sense everything he touches in the air, like he's using a 3D panoramic scan, with objects within a radius of 100 kilometers clearly appearing in his perception.

After his body became watery and seeped into the earth, the earth seemed to become a part of his body, and the land within a radius of hundreds of kilometers became his sensory tentacles.

Through this unique perception, the White Zetsu, which he couldn't sense before when it was operating underground, was now clearly sensed by Li Yao's water-style clone.

At that moment, Li Yao's water-escape clone immediately transformed into a water-based body, penetrated the earth, and chased after him.

Upon closer inspection, Li Yao's water-escape clone discovered yet another unique ability of his water-transformation technique.

That is to block perception.

After his body was hydrated and seeped into the earth, he became like a part of the earth's substance, with his soul and chakra perfectly hidden within the seeping substance.

It's like hiding inside a sealed iron sphere, where people outside can't see or sense anything at all.

Even White Zetsu, who can sense the earth, could not detect Li Yao's water-escape clone, whose body had been transformed into water and seeped into the earth.

This shows how terrifying the body's ability to hydrate, permeate, and shield itself from perception can be.

This is why Li Yao's Water Release clone was able to witness Madara's final moments up close, and also see Obito's hidden Sharingan.

The two thought they were hiding very well, but little did they know that Li Yaofeng, the sixth brother, was right beside them and could see everything clearly.

"Now we can go to Sunagakure!"

Li Yao's Water Release clone transformed into water and permeated the air, instantly merging with the air and becoming transparent before flying towards Sunagakure.

Originally, Li Yao's Water Release clone intended to leave the Flying Thunder God mark on Obito.

But there's no need for that now.

Obito's other Sharingan is hidden in an underground chamber sealed by a sealing technique and will not move.

Now that he has the ability to sense the permeation of water in his body, the whereabouts of White Zetsu and Black Zetsu are no longer hidden from him, and finding Obito and White Zetsu is a piece of cake.

He'll come back when Obito awakens his Kamui Mangekyou Sharingan.

Otherwise, if he were to act rashly, Li Yao's Water Release clone might encounter unexpected problems. If Obito hadn't awakened the Kamui Sharingan, they would be completely helpless.

Therefore, it's best not to interfere too much with Black Zetsu's arrangements.

First, go to the Sand Village to see if there are any suitable targets for possession, and then study the puppet formation.

The puppet formation held great importance in Li Yao's mind.

The fact that Li Yaofeng used his clones to preemptively kill Scorpion shows how much he valued the puppet formation.

In Li Yao's view, if the puppet array continues to be researched and deepened, the energy it emits will be terrifying, no less powerful than spacetime abilities.

In some cases, it can be even more terrifying.

In his vision, the puppet array had a terrifying development direction. Once successful, not to mention him, even the Otsutsuki clan would have to kneel before it.

Li Yao was unsure about the future development direction of Scorpion.

But he must personally commit to that direction; he cannot continue to sit back and reap the benefits, lest he be accidentally killed.

There's also the Sage of Six Paths lurking in the shadows, so Li Yao needs to make plans for the future.

at the same time.

Another Naruto world.

"Soon!"

At the bottom of the deep pit of the dragon vein in Loulan, Li Yao touched the dragon vein chakra with both hands and immersed his mind in the changes in the nature of the dragon vein chakra.

In the blink of an eye, Li Yao had already spent two years in the Dragon Vein Loulan world.

After two years in the world, Li Yao has already figured out most of the changes in the nature of the Dragon Vein Chakra.

If nothing unexpected happens, he should be able to replicate the Dragon Vein Chakra in about six months.

However… thinking of the three Konoha ninjas who entered Loulan a few days ago, Li Yao frowned slightly.

Minato has appeared. According to the Lost Tower storyline, Naruto should be arriving soon, probably within the next few days.

"I wonder if Naruto's appearance will... no, Naruto's appearance will definitely cause a spacetime change in the Dragon Vein Chakra."

Li Yao suddenly frowned. A few days ago, when Minato and the other two entered Loulan, the dragon vein chakra underwent a spacetime change, but the change was not significant.

However, the changes in time and space caused the nature of the dragon vein chakra to change as well.

Although the changes were not many, they undoubtedly made it more difficult for Li Yao to understand all the changes in the nature of the dragon vein chakra.

The reason why Li Yao has not been able to fully replicate the Dragon Vein Chakra after two years is that the spacetime attribute of the Dragon Vein Chakra is too easily fluctuated, and its nature is constantly changing.

Fortunately, many of the changes were repetitive, which gave Li Yao the opportunity to replicate his own Dragon Vein Chakra.

Otherwise, if Li Yao could instantly sense all the changes in the nature of the dragon vein chakra, it would be useless for him to sense it here for as long as he could.

Normally, the chakra of the dragon veins is like this.

Naruto, like him, came through space-time travel, so the space-time fluctuations he caused must have been much greater, and the space-time changes caused by the Dragon Vein Chakra must have been much greater as well.

As a result, Li Yao dared not guarantee whether he could replicate the Dragon Vein Chakra within six months.

Of course, as long as the dragon vein doesn't disappear, he can continue to sense it and spend another year or two replicating the dragon vein chakra; he won't lose out either.

However, Li Yao was afraid that the existence of the Dragon Vein Chakra had a certain time and space segment.

Just like the Naruto world he came from, from a very long time ago, in the Sand Country, where the phantom of the Loulan ruins appeared, the power of the dragon vein would periodically erupt at certain times.

This indicates that the power of the dragon vein does not exist forever, but rather has a periodicity.

In the Lost Tower movie, the power of the dragon vein was ultimately sealed away and disappeared by Minato.

Now that Li Yao has arrived in this world, he naturally won't allow Minato to seal the dragon vein.

But Li Yao was afraid that even if Minato didn't seal the dragon vein, the dragon vein would disappear on its own after a period of time.
