Chapter 413
Sasuke's strength in his normal state is already enough to overwhelm all elite Jonin.
Three years ago, Kakashi was the strongest Jonin Konoha. Now he has reached the Kage Level.
The Jonin became Asuma and Tenzo.
With Tenzo's strength.
He was easily subdued by Sasuke.
It's easy to imagine that Sasuke with Mitsudomoe has already reached the threshold of Kage Level.
With the Cursed Seal buff activated, I'm definitely Kage Level.
Because their fundamental strength is too solid.
Therefore, the dark humor scenario of Sasuke being killed by a small Kunai possible.
Later on, Sasuke will obtain the Mangekyō Sharingan, followed by the Eternal Mangekyō, until he receives the Six Paths Transmission.
The leveling speed is completely unreasonable!
In this situation...
It's virtually impossible for an ordinary person to catch up with the Naruto and Sasuke duo!
But for the Akito, this impossibility could be turned into a possibility.
As one villain once said... there are limits to human potential...
Human darkness also has its limits.
For example, Asuka.
The darkness in her heart was at most resentment and desire for revenge against a powerful nation.
Ultimately, Asuka is a kind girl.
Therefore, her achievements in Dark Chakra... will not surpass Ying's.
Of course, this doesn't mean Ying is entirely dark.
However, Ying's simpler and purer personality makes it easier for her to reach the pinnacle of a certain field.
Her sense of justice and righteousness was evident from the first time I met her.
Ying has a real talent for "going to extremes," or rather, for being persistent.
So...
Akito would accept her as a disciple.
It's not just because of the secret techniques of the Tsuchigumo Clan.
It was also because of Ying's temperament.
Dark Chakra, unrelated to bloodline, is the "Power of the Heart."
This is something that Akito have always emphasized.
And it is quite obvious that Ying's "Power of the Heart" has great potential.
"Master, what did you just say?" Ying asked.
"Oh, it's nothing."
Akito nodded, stood up, and left the table.
Rin Nohara also got up and followed.
Ying's eyes slowly changed, and a dark aura began to form and shape within her...
Under the adjustment of the Akito.
The new Zero-Tails Formula is being developed, growing alongside Ying's inner self.
The Zero-Tails Dragon within Rin Nohara's body is a good start.
Using Rin Nohara's example as a reference, Akito bestowed a new Zero-Tails Formula upon Hotaru.
Because Akito himself is the controller, he can refresh and adjust the Dark Jutsu Formula within Ying's body at any time.
That's all.
A new iteration is complete.
Akito believed that as long as Ying generated the Zero-Tails Dragon within her body, she would gain even greater power, leaping forward in one step, just like the Dark Shadow within him...
As the Akito slowly made their way back to Amegakure.
Corresponding changes also occurred in various countries of the ninja world.
Gaara, resurrected, has returned to the position of Kazekage.
Chiyo was buried.
Naruto Uzumaki and the others returned to Konoha.
In order to enhance combat capabilities.
Tenzo and Sai joined Team 7.
It was also investigated by Konoha's Anbu.
Near the Tenchi Bridge in the Land of Grass, there have been sightings of Orochihime...
Therefore, the new Team 7 decided to go to the Tenchi Bridge to find out what was going on...
Amegakure.
The Akito returned to this side.
Arrive at the Black Building immediately.
The scorpion's puppet core was placed in a separate room and studied by his cheap master, Shinnō.
"Amazing... amazing..."
Shinnō nodded repeatedly.
"Sasori of the Red Sands has modified and condensed his own body, eliminating all conventional structures while retaining all conventional functions..."
Before us, the puppet core placed within the transparent barrier is the scorpion's true form.
All you need to do is give it a puppet body.
He will be able to speak, move, listen, read, and write...
The soul resides in the body.
Scorpions have shattered a long-held, unwritten rule of human perception.
That is... my consciousness is attached to my brain... this ironclad rule.
The puppet core fully possessed the scorpion's consciousness and soul.
However, it lacks the structure of a brain.
This demonstrates that humans can possess consciousness even without a brain.
Then refer to the Impure World Reincarnation of the Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju.
The Spirit Transformation Technique of Tsunade, Princess Dan Katō's lover.
All of this proves it.
The human soul can be sustained by relying on an object, thereby continuing to influence the present world.
In other words...
The brain and the heart are merely tools for achieving possession.
What truly matters is the "soul".
"So?" Akito asked.
"Look."
Shinnō pointed to the data on the screen.
"Sasori of the Red Sands condenses himself into a lump of flesh, yet possesses Chakra reserve no less than anyone else's..."
It's in the official guidebook.
The scorpion's sperm count is "10", which is the maximum value.
It represents Chakra level.
The only ones who can be compared to him are figures like Kisame Hoshigaki, Guy, Jiraiya, and Naruto Uzumaki.
Akito: "In other words, the efficiency with which his physical cells store and convert energy is no less than that of the Tailed Beast."
"As expected of my disciple, he understood it immediately..."
Shinnō smiled.
"Just like the Sharingan of the Uchiha, a small eye contains unimaginable 'ocular power,' which is also known as 'Chakra'... Once Sasori's Puppet Core Forbidden Technique becomes widespread, it can solve many problems."
This includes insufficient Chakra reserves.
This includes poor physical quality.
... a wide variety of things.
It can be said that Scorpion is like a treasure trove, waiting to be discovered.
"I've already obtained the Puppet Core Technique from him. If there's nothing else, I'll continue my research..."
Shinnō handed the scroll to the Akito and then waved him away.
The Akito took the scroll outside and unfurled it.
The text above records the specific cultivation methods for the puppet core.
It also involves physical modification.
For the Akito people, the most useful part was "condensation".
That is, abandoning the human form while maintaining all functions, making the body the vessel for the soul.
Incorporate these advantages into your current cultivation system.
It is equivalent to...
Make the body purer, and weaknesses no longer weaknesses.
What does that mean?
Previously, Akito was almost cleaved in two by Fugaku Uchiha's Sword of Kusanagi, but he managed to turn the tables and kill the enemy.
That's because the Dark Medical Ninjutsu makes Akito's body free of weaknesses in the conventional sense.
However, back then, if Akito's brain was chopped up... to put it simply, their brain would explode, and they would still die.
Because of the Dark Medical Ninjutsu, there are still conceptual settings such as "brain" and "heart".
It's just a distortion of the weakness.
But now, all that's needed is for the Akito to extract a portion of the scorpion's puppet core and use it for their own purposes.
So...
The conceptual weaknesses of the "brain" and "heart" will also disappear.
In other words.
Even if the brain completely explodes into fragments, and the head physically evaporates from the world.
The Akito will not die.
The mere possession of a body by a soul would grant the Akito a kind of immortality!
