"Success."
Hidezawa silently sensed the condition of his body, especially the power that had fused into one and become completely inseparable.
His heart was filled with pride. So what if he hadn't been born with a bloodline? A cheater like him was still unstoppable!
"Y-you, this is..."
Only after the surroundings had calmed down did Yakushi Kabuto dare to approach again. He looked at the towering tree, then at Hidezawa beside it.
For a moment, even he felt dazed. Then he blurted out instinctively.
"Are you from the Senju Clan?"
"I don't know either."
Hidezawa really wanted to reply, Of course I'm not!
But it was better to say less. If he wanted to obtain information, he had to do some lying, bluffing, and scamming.
"You don't know?"
Kabuto stared at the massive tree in disbelief, then glanced at Hidezawa, who was still absorbing the Dragon Vein. He instinctively pushed up his glasses.
"Wood Release has already appeared, and you don't know?"
I fused it myself!
Hidezawa glanced at Yakushi Kabuto. As he continued absorbing the remaining Dragon Vein, he also began to examine his own Wood Release.
His Wood Release was very special. It was not Yamato's so-called "Furniture Ninjutsu," since he had carried out the fusion according to the "formula" he had obtained from Obito.
Wood Release was supported by a large amount of Yang Release, so its effects were naturally extraordinary!
At the same time, though, his Wood Release had not reached Hashirama Senju's level. That was perfectly normal—Hashirama Senju's Wood Release could go head-to-head with Madara Uchiha's Susanoo.
After activating Sage Art to complement it, he had even brutally beaten down both Susanoo and the Nine-Tails together!
Still, Hidezawa's was not bad either. Or rather, his Wood Release had greater room for improvement.
