Konoha's Mission Master

This was Reed's last chance.

The purple reagent began to take effect as soon as it was injected into his body. The liquid gradually spread, and the cool energy nourished Reed's brain cells, dispelling some of his mental fatigue.

The battle... has returned to a stalemate!

Yakumo activated the Soul Eye to its maximum, not daring to miss any clues, his heart filled with worry about the potential dangers.

Due to the use of the third injection of the mental supplement, Reed inevitably showed some signs of side effects, with faint purple lines appearing under the skin on his face.

Those were undigested drug residues.

"Shh."

Dragon appeared instantly beside them, looking extremely nervous. Although Yakumo had assured him that he would ensure Reid's safety, he was still inevitably worried.

Reed is now among the strongest fighting members of the Revolutionary Army and will be a core member who will follow Dragon in the future raid on Mary Geoise.

Reed is very important; the dragon cannot afford to take any risks.

“If he falls into a disadvantageous position again this time, I will take the initiative to suppress the animal will carried by the Devil Fruit,” Yakumo said.

"it is good."

Long waved his hand slightly, and a thin mist rose around him, enveloping his entire body and minimizing his presence as much as possible.

"Don't worry... He can't sense his surroundings right now. The deep battle of wills is a completely enclosed space, and only the victor can leave," Yakumo Kenryu explained nervously.

"It feels like a dark, locked room, a bloody battle between two people, where only the victor can seize the chance to survive."

"Hopefully Reed can overcome his animalistic instincts."

The dragon closed its eyes, as if praying for Reed.

A few minutes later, Yakumo smiled. Reed had the upper hand!

Finally, Reed shattered the animal will, and his body and spirit merged with the remaining fragments of the gray ape. His strength also leaped forward once again, reaching a level comparable to the Four Emperors.

After all, nine days ago, he was already a powerful general, extremely skilled in water-based ninjutsu, Armament Haki, and Observation Haki.

However, he did not regain consciousness. He remained with his eyes closed, digesting the energy gained from this enhancement. His enormous body slowly shrank, his gray fur re-entered his skin, and the lines on his body became much softer.

Dragon skillfully draped the cloak over Reed's naked body, his face completely devoid of worry, replaced by uncontrollable joy.

"Did it work?" Long asked softly.

“That’s right, Reed has overcome his animalistic will and is currently processing the energy and skills gained from his Super Awakening,” Yakumo replied with a smile.

He could see some unknown energy surging from the depths of the earth, strengthening Reed's body and making it thicker and harder.

Yakumo guessed that this fruit excelled in both strength and defense.

About fifteen minutes later, Reed opened his eyes, a glint of light flashing in them. Both his mental state and the vitality within his body had become much stronger, as if he had become a completely different person.

"Thank you, Lord Yakumo!"

Reed straightened his cloak, immediately stood up, and bowed to express his gratitude. His tone was deep and reassuring, giving the impression of being trustworthy and reliable.

After his explanation, Yakumo and Ryu also understood the skill that Reid gained from his Super Awakening, which was a special state that could be used in combination with the three states of human, half-orc, and beast.

His name is...Child of the Earth.

When Reed activates that state, he can continuously heal his injuries and even restore his stamina simply by stepping on the ground, making him a perpetual motion machine on the battlefield.

Despite its power, its limitation is that it must keep its feet firmly on the ground.

In terms of naval warfare, he may not improve his own combat power, but thanks to the enhancement from the Devil Fruit... the strength of his arms has also doubled.

While Reed was in a state of proficiency and super awakening, You Gu Qianxue planted the Nile Sorrow in the floor in front of her and casually injected the activation reagent.

"Master, if I fail, you don't need to suppress me."

"I'd rather die than fail!"

After saying this, You Gu Qianxue closed his eyes and began to fight against the will of the Buddha form. This time, his entire body was bathed in golden Buddha light.

The bones throughout the body are broken and then reassembled.

Extreme pain pierced You Gu Qianxue's skull, causing his face to involuntarily contort, making him look exceptionally ferocious.

Yakumo was somewhat surprised. He couldn't understand Chiyuki's sudden resolute determination, but he quickly figured out why she would make such a choice.

His eldest disciple was determined to risk his life in every battle, and it was precisely because of this that he could devote 100% of his strength to the fight.

Although Chiyuki had said she wouldn't save him, Yakumo didn't intend to stand idly by. While the Awakened One was powerful, it wasn't worth risking his disciple's life for it.

Under the observation of the Eye of the Soul, he discovered that all of You Gu Qianxue's bones were broken, including his spine. If it weren't for his fast repair speed, he would have already turned into mud by now.

This kind of physical enhancement is also a process that consumes the user's own mental will, causing their originally full spirit to become tired.

Click, click.

Under the golden light, the sound of bones cracking spread outwards continuously. Although You Gu Qianxue's body did not swell, it was covered in a golden color, as if her body was coated with a layer of gold paint.

A few minutes later, a series of explosions came from You Gu Qianxue's body, and blood gushed out from all over her body. The wounds healed at an extremely fast speed, which was an extremely torturous process.

Of course, what surprised Yakumo the most was that... this kind of torment appeared all over Yuuki Chiyuki's body. The Revolutionary Army cadre initially only had his spine strengthened, and Reid only had his arms strengthened.

However, this enhancement appeared all over You Gu Qianxue's body, which meant that he would have to endure several times the torment of others, and would also suffer a lot of blood loss.

Within You Gu Qianxue's body, the golden light displayed an extremely domineering destructive power. As the activation level increased, the bluestone slab beneath him was stained red with blood, while the golden light within his body became increasingly dazzling.

Several minutes passed, and the situation remained unchanged; the golden light continued to destroy and strengthen the bones throughout the body.

No, it's not just bones.

Blood, meridians, bones, and even skin—these are all areas where the Buddha form is being strengthened, and this strengthening has not yet stopped.

Soon, Yakumo noticed something amiss: the Buddha's own will had not coalesced, and it was even... difficult to observe its specific form.

Those golden lights seemed to be the will contained within the Mythical Beast Species - Great Buddha Form... but they were fighting separately, showing no sign of regrouping.

Mythical Zoan - Even More Special!

You Gu Qianxue expelled blood for the third time. Although his body was still shining with golden light, a closer look revealed that his face had become somewhat pale. If this continued, he would surely die.

Suddenly, the turning point that Yakumo had been hoping for finally appeared.

Chapter 367 Proof of Domination: Target Kaido

Inside the laboratory, You Gu Qianxue's shadow clone dissipated.

All the Sage Mode chakra he refined was integrated into his body, and the Sage Mode mark appeared on his forehead. His aura suddenly surged, radiating a chilling sense of oppression.

Under the influence of Sage Chakra, Yukotsu Chiyuki's shattered body is repairing and reconstructing at an extremely rapid pace.

Sage Mode is a state that amplifies all attributes.

It can not only enhance intelligence, making it easier to suppress the will of the Devil Fruit, but also enhance its own recovery speed.

At this moment, the speed at which the body was repairing was slightly faster than the speed at which it was shattering.

It made a snapping sound, like an egg breaking open.

All the golden light points converged, forming a golden phantom, like a smiling, reclining Buddha, and immediately attacked You Gu Qianxue's mind.

The battle of wills is about to begin.

Next, the winner and the loser, and life and death, will be decided.

The Nile River's Sorrow, located two feet in front of You Gu Qianxue, trembled slowly, emanating a thick aura of death. This aura was extremely ominous, making people feel oppressed and instinctively wanting to avoid it.

Finally, the deathly energy entered Yougu Qianxue's body.

The golden Buddhist light collided with the deathly aura, but instead of gradually dissolving each other, it erupted into a fierce conflict. The two were like two substances that could never be mixed, and their only outcome upon meeting was a life-or-death battle.

A faint explosion sound seemed to be heard all around.

You Gu Qianxue's will was also helping to cut through that golden phantom, and the two worked together... quickly gaining the upper hand.

Yakumo slowly loosened his clenched fist.

He thought to himself, "This time, it's in the bag."

The deathly aura was more domineering and terrifying than imagined. It was no longer satisfied with fighting on the will, but began to cleanse the body, shattering all the golden light between the flesh and blood and letting it merge into the body.

A golden Buddha statue, with fire behind it.

The golden light finally retreated under the combined attack of the two energies, showing signs of collapse. It was this scene that convinced Yakumo that Yukotsu Chiyuki would succeed.

The deathly aura emanated from Qianxue's body.

Yakumo and the others subconsciously moved away from the area. The golden light had been completely extinguished, and the remaining will was quite illusory.

bump.

With a soft sound, the golden light dissipated.

A few minutes later, Yougu Qianxue opened her eyes.

"I did it."

The whole process only took ten minutes.

He had already overcome the backlash of the Mythical Zoan Fruit's will and completely mastered the fruit, causing Reed beside him to lose his composure.

If overcoming the will of a Devil Fruit and gaining super awakening of abilities is really that simple, then what is the point of his several hours of fighting?

What does it matter that he was on the verge of death several times?

He considered himself a genius, but now his pride has shattered.

"Congratulations, you have taken a very important step."

Yakumo took out his tools and extracted a drop of Yukotsu Chiyuki's blood, squeezing it onto his fingertip. The power of life was naturally activated, and all the mysteries of genes were revealed before his eyes.

The three staircases form a spiral, spreading upwards like a giant pillar supporting the sky. From a distance, they give off an unshakeable feeling. The staircase belonging to the Devil Fruit has already caught up with the other two.

This means that the Human-Human Fruit, Mythical Zoan type, Buddha form has been developed to its peak, and there is no way to improve it further.

But the game system told him that super awakening was not the limit.

Outside, Yakumo destroyed the blood at his fingertips and smiled at Yukotsu Chiyuki. His super awakening was perfect, and he had mastered the abilities of the Buddha form to a full extent.
