Wood Transformation Technique

This Intermediate Chakra Pill costs 300 gold coins in the Lottery System shop.

Not bad, not bad at all!

Lin Mu kept hinting to himself in his heart.

This was equivalent to earning 300 gold coins for free!

Looking at the beautiful blue pill in his hand, Lin Mu originally wanted to pop it into his mouth to test its effects.

However, catching a glimpse of the unconscious Naruto Uzumaki on his back, he hesitated for a moment before stuffing the Intermediate Chakra Pill into Naruto Uzumaki's mouth instead.

Hum—

The pill melted the moment it touched his tongue, and a faint blue energy instantly swept through Naruto Uzumaki's entire body!

Naruto Uzumaki's chakra had been completely depleted, but at this moment, it was recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye!

Intermediate Chakra Pill: A pill condensed from pure chakra. An upgraded version of the Primary Chakra Pill. Can restore 50% of a Chunin's chakra or 20% of a Jonin's chakra.

What a powerful effect!

This was the first time Lin Mu had seen a Chakra Pill in action.

Although he wasn't the one using it, thanks to the powerful sensory perception granted by his Wood Style Body, Lin Mu could clearly perceive the chakra within Naruto Uzumaki's body recovering rapidly.

In just a few breaths, it had already reached half its capacity, and even Naruto Uzumaki's complexion began to turn somewhat rosy.

As expected!

Products from the system are always top-tier.

Complaints and curses aside, Lin Mu was very satisfied with the quality of the system's goods.

Seeing that Naruto Uzumaki's face was no longer so pale, Lin Mu felt slightly relieved.

The Prince has an inherently cheerful personality, and since they were both orphans, they interacted frequently.

Therefore, he was one of the few friends the Prince had.

Earlier, he had used the power of Wood Style to directly suppress Shukaku, which saved Naruto Uzumaki from having to use the Nine-Tails chakra, greatly reducing the strain on his body.

His injuries were much lighter than what Lin Mu remembered!

Now, combined with the powerful effects of the system-produced Intermediate Chakra Pill, the Prince should wake up very soon.

Actually, Lin Mu had enough gold coins now; he could have easily purchased another pill from the Lottery System shop to use on Sasuke Uchiha.

But he didn't do so. He knew that the Second Pillar was suspicious by nature and his brain worked much faster than Naruto Uzumaki's.

Giving such a powerful pill to him might lead to situations that Lin Mu couldn't control.

Lin Mu's thoughts raced, considering many things in an instant.

But he immediately suppressed those thoughts; now, the lottery was the most important thing.

Having just drawn an Intermediate Chakra Pill worth 300 gold coins on his first try, he felt a bit more confident in his luck.

"One more time!"

Grinning, Lin Mu focused his intent and clicked the draw button on the Lottery System again.

Hum—

The Lottery System activated, and the massive Golden Roulette in the center of the screen began to spin rapidly once more.

Ninjutsu! Fragments! Ninjutsu! Fragments! Ninjutsu! Fragments!

Lin Mu shouted frantically in his heart, hoping the goddess of luck would visit him again.

Time ticked by second by second, and the speed of the Golden Roulette gradually slowed down.

Lin Mu's nerves grew even tighter.

Drawing a prize was even more exhausting than the life-and-death battle he had just fought!

Finally, the Golden Roulette stopped.

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for drawing Random Ninjutsu ×1!"

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for drawing the ninjutsu: Wood Style: Wood Transformation Jutsu!"

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully learning the ninjutsu: Wood Style: Wood Transformation Jutsu!"

Instantly, information regarding the Wood Style: Wood Transformation Jutsu flooded into Lin Mu's mind.

In just a few breaths, Lin Mu had mastered this ninjutsu, as if he had been practicing it for many years.

Mastering a ninjutsu in such a short time—this is the power of the system!

Swish—

Sasuke Uchiha hurriedly slowed down, nearly colliding with Lin Mu, who had suddenly stopped in front of him.

Seeing Lin Mu standing ahead, dazed and motionless.

"Hey! Why did you stop?"

Lin Mu did not answer, remaining standing still.

"Are you alright, Lin Mu? Did you get hurt just now?"

Sakura Haruno ran up to Lin Mu and asked with some concern.

Although her idol Sasuke Uchiha was right in front of her, Sakura had watched Lin Mu's entire battle against Kankuro and Temari, and now, waves of admiration for Lin Mu surged in her heart.

"No... I'm fine!"

Once Lin Mu saw the trace of admiration in Sakura's eyes, he immediately snapped back to reality.

The Prince currently had his heart set entirely on Sakura, and Lin Mu had no desire to compete with Naruto Uzumaki.

Lin Mu turned around and resumed running, signaling that he was fine.

Shikamaru Nara, trailing at the very back, frowned; compared to before, Lin Mu seemed like a completely different person today.

Strange, too strange!

Lin Mu was, of course, fine—in fact, he was doing better than ever.

Lucky me! I've truly been possessed by the god of luck!

Wood Style: Wood Transformation Technique was not a very well-known Wood Style jutsu, but its utility was incredibly powerful.

Wood Style: Wood Transformation Technique: Uses Wood Style to wrap branches around one's body to transform, allowing the user to take on the appearance of an enemy. The disguise is extremely realistic and difficult for the average person to see through, primarily used for espionage and reconnaissance.

Disguise, and a highly realistic appearance that is difficult for the average person to see through.

These three points were the greatest highlights of this jutsu.

This jutsu did not possess the powerful offensive capabilities of the Wood Style: Cutting Technique, nor the defensive power of the Wood Style: Tree Barrier.

However, in this chaotic and dangerous Ninja World, this ability to disguise was the most practical skill of all!

Lin Mu had a premonition that before he truly became strong, this jutsu would play a massive role!

After all, in troubled times, self-preservation was the most important thing!

"Mmm..."

A somewhat hoarse voice drifted out, and Lin Mu felt the person on his back stir.

Naruto had woken up!

Lin Mu stopped once again, finding a relatively clean and tidy spot to set Naruto down.

"Naruto!"

With tears in her eyes, Sakura rushed directly to Naruto's side.

Although she had been restrained by Gaara's sand and unable to fight, she had witnessed the entire process of Naruto fighting desperately against Gaara for her sake.

Now that Naruto was awake, she naturally cared deeply.

"How are you feeling?"

"I, I, I..."

The moment the Prince opened his eyes and saw his goddess kneeling before him, crying like a rain-drenched flower, his face turned bright red.

Seeing Naruto Uzumaki's awkward state, Lin Mu couldn't help but smile.

He naturally knew that Naruto Uzumaki was already completely fine.

Naruto Uzumaki was, after all, a descendant of the Uzumaki clan, naturally possessing a powerful body and vast chakra, and with the addition of him being the Nine-Tails jinchuriki and the help of Lin Mu's Intermediate Chakra Pill.

Lin Mu felt that Naruto's current condition was even better than his own!

"Alright, alright."

Shikamaru Nara interrupted Sakura's sobbing.

"It's not safe outside right now either, we should head back to the village first!"

The group exchanged glances and nodded in succession; since Naruto Uzumaki had recovered, it was best to return to the village as quickly as possible!
