"Ninjutsu activated using Sage Chakra often possesses extremely strong destructive power."

"Our Sage Mode from Mount Myōboku is simply called Frog Sage Mode. It lasts for about five minutes. Come on, Naruto, let's begin our basic Sage Mode training."

"Remember, you must remain calm and composed, without any distracting thoughts. You also need to achieve a 1:1 balance between your chakra and natural energy. If you fail, your body may turn to stone or even frog-like." Fukasaku said solemnly.

"I'll ask you one more time, do you really want to learn magic?"

Seeing Naruto nod, Fukasaku took a deep breath and began to have Naruto apply toad oil to his body so that he could feel and absorb natural energy.

Jiraiya watched this scene with bated breath.

Cultivating immortal arts is extremely dangerous.

He nearly lost his life when he was practicing immortal arts.

Fortunately, we made it through in the end.

Moreover, once Naruto successfully completes his training, his combat power can leap to above Jonin level, and he may even break through to Kage level, which would be a good thing for Konoha.

Under the guidance of the two sages, Naruto gradually improved, his mind cleared of all distractions, and soon, the natural energy of the summoning world began to flow towards him.

The speed at which he cultivated was astonishing.

"Naruto is so sensitive to natural energy? His talent is amazing!" Even though Fukasaku had seen countless geniuses, he had never seen a human who could make natural energy surge so violently.

The natural energy formed a thick white substance that constantly surrounded Naruto.

But strangely, Naruto suddenly looked pained.

Moreover, that aura didn't seem to be the aura of immortal magic.

"The natural energy has mutated?" the immortal exclaimed. "Such violent energy!"

The natural energy rapidly transformed in mid-air into the energy that the Sage had described as the Pure Land, and condensed on Naruto's face.

At the same time, Naruto's eyes suddenly turned bloodthirsty and filled with danger.

This was a terrifying look that Jiraiya had never seen before.

That aura, that killing intent, made all the toads on Mount Myōboku uneasy and terrified.

Even Gamabunta came to the scene, standing guard cautiously to one side.

"What's going on?" Jiraiya asked, looking at the two immortals.

"These natural energies were absorbed by Naruto's body, but it seems they also awakened something? Now, these natural energies are being transformed," Fukasaku said with a look of apprehension.

"I think this might be a side effect of Naruto's bloodline limit, creating a negative personality! Now, this personality is taking over his body."

"Is there anything we can do? Are we just going to stand by and do nothing?"

“No, his chakra, natural energy, and strange power are currently intertwined and forming a delicate balance. If we intervene rashly, we will break this balance.”

"I think all we can do now is wait."

.......

When Naruto opened his eyes, he found himself inside the space of his Zanpakuto.

The palace was deserted, and the once dazzling starry sky was gone, replaced by a thick, disgusting white mist that swirled in the air, filling the atmosphere with endless coldness and malice.

And amidst the white mist, there were also specks of light symbolizing natural energy.

Naruto reached out and slid his hand across the natural energy, but could only feel its coldness.

"Hehehe." A very negative laugh suddenly rang out in the air, followed by a white shadow that swept across the sky and landed next to the throne.

"This is...me?" Naruto stared intently, only to find that the person in the white robe had the same face as him, but the expression on his face was full of negativity, much like a deranged mental patient.

"Hehehe, what disgusting energy." The white figure brandished its white blade, unleashing a thick cloud of white mist that swallowed the specks of light. It looked at Naruto with an evil expression: "I've finally returned! My true form, from this moment on, I will replace you as king!"

Under Naruto's puzzled gaze, the white figure sat down on the throne.

However, the next moment, his body seemed to be hit by a huge impact, and he was sent flying backward, his chest and abdomen even caved in, and white liquid sprayed out of his mouth.

He was sent flying at least thirty meters away, rolling and landing at Naruto's feet.

He raised his head, his face filled with uncontrollable rage, and shouted hysterically at the throne:

"Why? Why won't you acknowledge me? I'm clearly much stronger than this weak body! I am the king!"

But soon, he looked at Naruto and revealed a wicked smile: "I understand. As long as I kill the real body, I can become the king."

The white blade in his hand, accompanied by gusts of wind, slashed fiercely towards Naruto.

Naruto moved lightly and instantly appeared a hundred meters away, looking at the white figure expressionlessly, already understanding what was going on.

This guy is my negative self, the void.

I learned from Aizen that Shinigami and Hollows are related; through special means, Shinigami can become Hollows, and Hollows can become Shinigami.

What I am facing now is a void composed of my own negative emotions.

"A beast that cannot control its emotions." Naruto drew Kyoka Suigetsu, the blade gleaming.

This carefree posture further enraged Hollow, who then unleashed a powerful slash at Naruto.

"Clang." The two swords clashed, sparks flew, and Naruto felt his arm go numb and took a step back.

But Xu Bai's second strike came right after, accompanied by hysterical laughter: "You're too weak, real body. Let me take your place. I will destroy Konoha, and I will do it better than you!"

Naruto chuckled and dodged, then kicked Hollow White in the stomach with a backhand. He then instantly appeared behind Hollow White and unleashed a powerful Mirror Flower Water Moon.

"How is this possible?" The blasted-away Hollow looked shocked. He used his abdominal muscles to block the Mirror Flower Water Moon with his sword, but his own body slammed heavily onto the ground.

"Bang." Naruto then stomped on Hollow White's face, a mocking expression on his face:

"Trying to replace me? Is this the kind of person you are?"

Chapter Ninety-One: Hollowing Out

The Void, filled with negative emotions, often possesses abilities that transcend its physical form.

However, it's important to understand that Naruto's power isn't just limited to being a Shinigami; he also possesses his own chakra system.

Moreover, Naruto didn't believe that a irrational person could defeat him.

According to Aizen, mastering Hollowfication can greatly increase one's strength, and may even allow one to directly break through to the Kage level.

Only by possessing Kage-level strength can I temporarily establish myself in Konoha.

Just seeing Hollow White, who had the same face as him, display such an ugly expression filled Naruto with uncontrollable disgust.

"Unforgivable!" Feeling the cold ground beneath his feet, Xu Bai's shame turned into anger.

He couldn't believe that the entity he had always disregarded could defeat him in an instant.

Enraged, Hollow White unleashed an even more terrifying power, directly knocking Naruto away, rising up, and spitting out a Cero from his mouth.

The Cero whipped up bricks from the ground and shot straight toward Naruto with unstoppable momentum.

"This move is powerful, but it's too ugly," Naruto muttered.

The Hollow White, possessing the same face as himself, opened its mouth and spewed out a Cero...

This scene...

It's absolutely outrageous!

Seeing Xu Bai like this, I really want to... just kill him.

Naruto's expression turned cold.

"Eight Gates Formation, open the gates, open."

"Open the door to rest."

"The gate of life, open."

Naruto immediately opened the Third Gate and instantly appeared behind Hollow White. Hollow White, who had just fired a Cero, didn't even have time to wipe his mouth, and his eyes couldn't keep up with Naruto's movements.

With the aid of Shunpo and the Eight Gates, Naruto's speed has far surpassed that of Hollow White.

"Boom." Naruto kicked Hollow White into the air and appeared above him like a shadow.

"Boom boom boom." The continuous sound of impact rang out.

In Hollow White's eyes, Naruto had already turned into a blur, his entire body subjected to Naruto's punches and kicks.

Each time, it would fly in one direction at an even faster speed, but would be instantly shot in another direction.

Like duckweed, it floats in mid-air.

Why is there such a big difference?

Xu Bai was confused and suffered constant pain in his body.

Logically speaking, the negative version of the Shinigami, Hollow White, should possess power surpassing that of the original body.

When under negative emotions, Xu Bai is often able to exert more than 100% of his strength. How could he possibly lose to his original self?

In his view, the real person was just a weakling who could only survive by disguising himself.

This was the first time Xu Bai had tasted pain and humiliation since his birth.

Finally, the string of reason in his mind snapped completely.

"Roar." He roared, his spiritual pressure rising to a level far exceeding his previous level, even distorting the air.

The spiritual pressure spread outward in a circular shape, directly blasting Naruto away, while Hollow White stabilized himself in mid-air and landed heavily on the ground, splashing up a large amount of gravel.

"Hahaha, main body, congratulations, you have successfully angered me." Feeling the boiling and surging spiritual pressure within his body, Xu Bai couldn't help but tilt his head back triumphantly and laugh wildly.

To his surprise, Naruto didn't show any fear; instead, he looked amused and lightly wiped the dust off his fist.

“I think you’ve got it wrong. From the beginning, you were just… my prey.”

After saying that, Naruto's figure once again turned into a blur, and to Hollow White's shocked and incredulous gaze, he punched Hollow White in the abdomen.

The continuous sound of blows rang out again, and this time, each punch caused a certain degree of dent in Xu Bai's body.

"How is this possible?" Naruto in Xu Bai's sight turned into an afterimage again, and he realized with despair.

It turns out that Naruto had been holding back all along.

"I, Hollow White, am the prey!" Hollow White was filled with resentment and wanted to fight back, but under Naruto's storm of attacks, he was completely powerless to resist.
