The Spread of the Wood Release Kekkei Genkai

Pirate Shazo suddenly asked, "There's a question. I wonder if you've thought of it?"

Naruto Shazo asked, "What question?"

Pirate Shazo said, "If you bring Shisui Uchiha over, the Konoha Ninja will definitely react as expected, but the Uchiha will absolutely go berserk. What if they disrupt your plan?"

Naruto Shazo scratched his chin. "Tsk, I said when we met in the dream last time that I don't care whether the Jonin of the Uchiha Clan live or die."

"The situation is different now. Since I'm getting involved, I have to completely resolve the conflict between the Uchiha Clan and the Third Hokage."

"The Uchiha clan head, elders, and Jonin with Three-Tomoe Sharingan—those ninjas who have already made up their minds to stage a coup are no longer suited to remain alive."

Pirate Shazo took a deep breath. "Sigh, it seems the Pirate World has influenced me rather badly. I couldn't even see through something so simple."

Demon Xiazhuo chuckled twice, then said, "If there's nothing else, I'll be leaving. I can't wait to experience how Wood Release manifests in me."

Star Trek Shazo said, "I'm getting impatient too."

Marvel Shazo grinned. "Me too. See you!"

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh. Star Trek Shazo, Demon Xiazhuo, and Marvel Shazo vanished from the Plane Dreamscape.

Naruto Shazo, Pirate Shazo, and Shinigami Xiazhuo looked at one another, then leaned back and disappeared from the dreamscape as well.

The magnificent Plane Dreamscape remained quietly in place, gradually becoming transparent and hollow before completely turning into nothingness.

Cultivation World, Qingyan Sect, Sect Master Peak.

Fairy Jin Shunyao was meditating when inspiration suddenly erupted in her heart. Countless thoughts surged forth, gathering in the blink of an eye into a power system that was flawed, yet sufficiently complete.

Fairy Jin Shunyao curiously examined "her own" inspiration, then soon let out a soft gasp.

"Why would I have such inspiration? Rather than following the Great Path of the Five Elements' generation and restraint, it is an unorthodox path of the Five Spirits' reverse restraint?"

"Oh? Not bad. A complete system actually formed directly from inspiration. Oh, it even combines Yin-Yang power for further elevation."

"Hehe, I really am a genius."

"I never thought there could be such a method. Yin-Yang can not only generate and transform the Five Elements, but can also merge with the Five Spirits. Interesting."

"Hmm, this is not the Great Path of Longevity and cannot serve as a foundational cultivation art, but it is an excellent unorthodox combat method. It will be quite useful for protecting the Dharma and defending the Way."

"Tsk tsk, this inspiration is still incomplete. There are too many errors and omissions."

"Let me deduce it properly, perfect this Yin-Yang Five-Spirit Combat Arts, and pass it on to the newly recruited disciples for cultivation."

"Where should I begin?"

"Hmm? More inspiration? Earth Spirit and Water Spirit combining into the force of green wood? How can there be such a combination? This goes against the Dao!"

"Ah? It really works?"

After her shock, Fairy Jin Shunyao was filled with delight. "Good, good, good! So my understanding of the Dao was mistaken. I truly must study and deduce this carefully. Perhaps my own Dao is hidden within it."

Within Fairy Jin Shunyao's Sea of Consciousness, Demon Xiazhuo was so exhausted his tongue was nearly hanging out, yet his smile was exceptionally joyful.

Disguising the complete body of ninjutsu knowledge and Kekkei Genkai knowledge as inspiration, then transmitting it through her Sea of Consciousness, had truly been a massive undertaking. It had nearly drained all of the Heavenly Demon's soul power.

But when Shazo saw the intricate streams of deduction flowing through her Sea of Consciousness, he felt that all the hardship had been worth it. This time, he had struck it rich.

Fairy Jin Shunyao had actually thrown herself fully into the deductions. It seemed that in less than forty years, she would be able to comprehensively perfect ninjutsu and Kekkei Genkai.

A cultivator at the Deity Transformation stage was terrifying indeed.

When would he be able to have a woman three hundred years older than himself?

Demon Xiazhuo felt the surging vitality within his body and watched the green hue gradually spreading through his Sea of Consciousness as it was suffused by Wood Release. His heart was filled with hope.

Bleach World, Soul Society.

Shazo controlled the plant-type Spirit Particle ability converted from Wood Release in the Naruto World, easily urging flowering trees to bloom early and bear fruit rapidly.

The Spirit Particle ability did not directly strengthen his spiritual pressure, but it unified his original Spirit Particles, causing the speed at which his spiritual pressure grew to increase noticeably.

At the same time, Shazo felt hungry. When he plucked fruit from the tree and stuffed it into his mouth, experiencing the sour, astringent, and sweet flavors filling his mouth, tears silently streamed down his face.

Finally, finally, eating no longer felt like chewing wax. He could taste flavors now.

This was the sign that Shazo's spiritual pressure had grown enough to meet the standards of Soul Society Headquarters and qualify him to take the entrance exam for the Central Spirit Arts Academy.

As long as Soul Society Headquarters opened its gates again to select Death God students from Soul Society, he could join the academy and study Kido.

Marvel Universe, New York City, inside a luxury apartment.

Xia Zuo Dawson tested the Wood Release Kekkei Genkai in the washroom. He had reproduced the Wood Release Kekkei Genkai perfectly.

He could manipulate plants, accelerate their growth, create huge trees from thin air, and even cause plants to rapidly die.

The most practical application he had discovered so far was not attacking, but using plants as his eyes and ears, allowing him to hear every sound perceived by plants within a certain distance around him.

That range almost covered the entire apartment building.

It was an extremely useful ability, especially in a dense urban environment like New York. The effect of plants transmitting sound was no less effective than having ears that could hear through the wind.

If he could expand the range to several hundred meters, or even several thousand meters, it would become an absolute god-tier ability.

Old Cop Shazo chuckled. "I'm looking forward to Shazo in the Naruto World making even greater progress."

After laughing, he left the washroom and lay back down on his soft, large bed.

Suddenly, a slender, fair arm reached out from beneath the covers, wrapped around Shazo's neck, and pulled him into bed.

The large bed immediately became a small boat sailing upon a stormy sea.

Although it was Tuesday, Shazo's administrative leave had only just begun. He still had four days to enjoy himself, so he did not need to worry about work.

Pirate World, aboard the merchant ship Good Man Vison, captain's quarters.

The new captain, Shazo, snapped off a branch that had just grown from the table and used it to repair the traces of battle inside the captain's quarters. Before long, the cabin was restored to its original state.

Shazo was overjoyed. "Wood Release is really useful. From now on, I can completely take on the ship repairs myself, and I won't even need to stockpile materials in advance."

"In other words, I can train without holding back now. I no longer have to worry about damaging the deck."

"Hahaha!"

The sailors aboard the merchant ship heard their new captain's laughter, exchanged looks, and quickly lowered their heads to work.

The former captain, who had been demoted to navigator, gnashed his teeth and cursed, "What an idiot. Does he really think he's a pirate, that personal strength alone is enough to secure the captain's position?"

"Just wait. Once the ship docks, I'll sneak off and call the Baron."

"The Baron will never allow a bastard like you to run wild. He'll send out the navy to arrest you."

"You're dead!"

"You'll be covered in tung oil, pasted with feathers, and hanged at the harbor."

Shazo sat in the captain's chair, raising a bottle of golden rum to take several swigs. Beside his ear, a morning glory growing from the armrest played the new navigator's curses.

He laughed happily. "You're the one who can't see the world clearly. In the Pirate World, strength is naturally supreme."

"As long as I'm willing to make money for the Baron, why wouldn't he accept someone as powerful as me?"
