Cos Wuzan, was stabbed ten times by Heize at the beginning

Pale pink camellias swayed on the withered bones.

Muzan's chakra increased slightly.

Genin have so little chakra!

Muzan shifted his gaze from the camellias on the ground.

Sakura stood frozen in place, her eyes fixed on the genin on the ground who had been impersonating Naruto but had inexplicably died.

"what!"

"That feels so good!"

Naruto walked out from the other side, pulling up his pants.

Sensing that something was amiss, his expression changed, and he looked at Sakura and Sasuke with a strange expression.

A pink hue flashed in his vision.

"Wow!"

"What beautiful camellias!"

Naruto's eyes lit up.

He ran towards the camellia.

"Naruto!"

Sakura reached out and called out, but it was too late; Naruto had already seen the camellia growing from his bones.

Naruto's pupils dilated, his legs felt weak, and he staggered back a few steps.

He swallowed hard, his trembling eyes looking at Sakura and Sasuke.

"What...what is this...?"

Sakura and Sasuke couldn't answer either.

The genin in front of them was coming for them, but before they could even make a move, the genin turned into a skeleton in the blink of an eye.

Even though Sakura had almost finished reading all the books in the Konoha Library, she had never seen such a strange plant.

"After you left, a low-ranking ninja disguised himself as you to deceive us..."

Muzan's voice drew the attention of Naruto and the other two to him.

Facing the inquisitive gazes of the three men, Muzan continued, "Then I killed him."

Naruto and his two friends' eyes widened even more.

Sakura subconsciously looked towards the delicate pink camellia, and hesitated, "But..."

But she clearly didn't see Muzan make a move, and...

That must be Wood Release!

Sakura was startled.

Did Muzan inherit Amamiya-sama's Wood Release?

"Muzan, how did you do that?"

Naruto swallowed hard, moved closer to Muzan, and asked.

Sasuke frowned slightly, his gaze fixed on the skeleton, deep in thought.

"That's a type of Wood Release ninjutsu!"

Muzan said casually.

Of course, it's the upgraded Wood Release.

The Senra Senkai can release spores in the air. When the genin inhaled the spores, they naturally grew inside his body, absorbing his flesh and chakra.

When the spores fully bloomed, the ginseng was completely drained.

The absorbed chakra flowed into Muzan's body.

Flesh and blood, on the other hand, became nourishment for the flowers.

"Wood...Wood Release..."

When Naruto started to stutter, the first person he thought of was his older sister.

But...but...

"Muzan, didn't you not awaken Wood Release?"

Naruto couldn't help but ask.

Sakura and Sasuke also sat down next to Muzan, forming a circle around him, their curious gazes fixed on him.

"Who told you I haven't awakened Wood Release?"

Muzan countered with a question to Naruto.

Naruto was dumbfounded.

The overwhelming shock left his mind blank.

"Who said that..."

Naruto repeated it blankly, then suddenly seemed to remember something, his eyes lighting up: "That's what everyone in the village says!"

Sakura nodded: "That's right! Everyone says Muzan, you haven't awakened Wood Release!"

"They're not me, how would they know if I've awakened Wood Release?"

Muzan braced his hands on the lawn, and a single sentence made Sakura suddenly realize something.

Yes!

The villagers aren't Muzan himself, so who besides Muzan could know whether they've awakened Wood Release?

I'm afraid even Lord Amamiya might not know!

Muzan kept it a secret for too long!

Muzan's Wood Release technique originates from Black Zetsu's chakra; it is a skill extracted from Black Zetsu's chakra.

Therefore, he does not have Wood Release cells in his body.

Therefore, his Sharingan cannot be upgraded to the Rinnegan.

However, this is actually a good thing for Muzan.

If he really wanted the Rinnegan, he could have absorbed more of Nagato's chakra.

Once Nagato dies, he will absorb the chakra of Obito and Madara Uchiha.

Finally, Sasuke Uchiha is waiting for him to visit.

Why bother upgrading his Mangekyou Sharingan to the Rinnegan?

Fugaku's Mangekyou Sharingan has a unique ability; once it enters his eye socket, it is not affected by blindness.

It's so useful!

"That's amazing..."

Sakura muttered to herself, "Muzan has actually awakened the Wood Release technique that only Lord Amamiya possesses!"

Although Naruto didn't know exactly how powerful Wood Release was, in his eyes his sister was the most powerful.

So Muzan, who possesses the same Wood Release as his sister, must also be incredibly powerful!

It seems he needs to work harder too!

He absolutely did not want to be left behind by his younger brother.

"So even if I act alone, I'll be fine."

Muzan steered the conversation back on track.

This time, Sakura didn't say anything to stop her.

"Acting alone?"

Naruto asked, puzzled, "Why?"

Muzan's gaze swept over Naruto: "Because I'm faster when I'm alone!"

His overly honest words immediately silenced Naruto and the other two.

Sasuke clenched his fists, his eyes lowered.

Did their existence actually hinder Muzan?

"And I need to go find someone."

Muzan didn't care what the three of them were thinking.

His absorption of chakra is the most important thing.

"Don't worry about the scroll!"

"Leave it to us."

Muzan stood up and reminded them, "If you encounter an enemy you can't defeat, just run away. There's no need to lose your life."

After saying that, he leaped onto a high tree branch and disappeared from Naruto and the others' sight in a few leaps.

Naruto glanced at Sakura and Sasuke, scratched his head, and said, "Let's continue walking in!"

Sakura stood up and nodded emphatically: "Yes!"

Even if Muzan were to cover for them, they couldn't rely on him for everything.

They need to work hard too!

Sasuke walked beside Naruto, somewhat absent-minded.

A face that bore a striking resemblance to his own appeared in his mind.

Those crimson Sharingan eyes seemed to be constantly mocking his incompetence and weakness.

Chapter 410: Trying to steal chakra from Muzan will only lead to a bad end!!!

The dried fallen leaves were crushed by succinate.

The damp, cold air was filled with the constant smell of blood.

Karin's rapid breathing echoed through the Forest of Death.

Her eyes were filled with terror.

Even though her legs were so sore and weak, she still didn't dare to stop.

She stumbled and ran forward.

Run as fast as you can.

Thorns left red marks on her body quickly.

The ground shook.

The low growls of wild beasts echoed in her ears.

The roar was deafening.

Karin shuddered and couldn't help but turn around to look.

A pair of scarlet beastly eyes were fixed on her.

It was a black bear that was at least five meters tall.

The fishy, ​​foul odor reached Karin's nostrils from a great distance.

Thick saliva dripped from between the black bear's fangs.

The coarse hair on his body was congealed with blood.

"what!"

Karin's legs buckled, and she fell heavily forward.
