Time flies, and it's Konoha 52 in a blink of an eye.
The hard-headed Kumogakure finally chose to negotiate with Konoha to end the war completely.
I really can't fight anymore.
As the peace talks with Kirigakure ended, Konoha sent Namikaze Minato and Hatake Sakumo to the north, and Kumo Shinobi felt uncomfortable.
White Fang of Konoha and Yellow Flash Fourth Raikage must go to the battlefield in person to hold down the formation, otherwise the losses will be huge.
At this point, Ninja World has finally calmed down completely and is far away from the influence of the war.
All major ninja villages have entered a period of recovery and accumulation of strength, until one day war breaks out again due to conflicts of interest.
And this year, Shita Genichi is 16 years old.
In the past two years, he has never taken another step out of Konoha.
No, for others, it is two years, but for Shita Genichi, it is 22 years!
This year Uzumaki Ina is 24 years old, Pakura is 25 years old, Namikaze Minato is 25 years old, and Tsunade is 39 years old.
After the war with Kumogakure, teacher Hatake Sakumo was in a semi-retired state, working in Hokage Building's consultant office every day, and became one of Fourth Hokage Tsunade's resident consultants.
The other one is Sarutobi Hiruzen.
As for Torifu Akimichi, who is also retired, he is in poor health and will generally not appear until Six-Tails goes berserk.
Shita Genichi finally took a rest and relaxed, so he took Shizune and Uzumaki Ina to sneak into the hot springs. As a result, Hot Spring House was caught by Tsunade as soon as he left.
It feels like being caught stealing food.
So he was raped and sneaked to Hokage Office to work.
Not for anything else, just to give Tsunade guidance on how to practice Wood Release at any time.
At present, of the entire Konoha, only Shita Genichi and Yamato can truly master Wood Release.
As for Kakashi, until now I can only simply use a little bit of the power of Wood Release.
Currently Yamato is 12 years old and is following Kakashi in Anbu.
Moreover, Shita Genichi is stronger and more familiar, so Tsunade naturally chooses to let Shita Genichi guide him.
However, for the current Shita Genichi, there is no need to spend time in the laboratory, it is the same wherever he practices.
It is also very nice to be accompanied by three beauties, big and small.
Hokage Office.
Tsunade, with her twin ponytails, still maintains her appearance in her early thirties, and her increasingly mature temperament gives her a different kind of charm.
Since the completion of Strength of a Hundred Technique last year, the overall atmosphere of Tsunade has become more and more lively.
The potential of the Senju Clan is being tapped little by little under Cell Activation Secret Technique created by Shita Genichi.
The amount of chakra, which had stopped growing long ago, has actually increased slightly in the past year.
But at this moment, Tsunade frowned at Wood Release Scroll.
This is not left by Senju Hashirama, but Wood Release Scroll written by Shita Genichi himself, with more detailed content.
On the left, on the original desk of Uzumaki Ina, Shita Genichi is sitting cross-legged, lowering his eyes to meditate.
In nature, the huge Natural Energy is entering his body continuously, and then is divided into two parts. One part belongs to the magnetic field and electromagnetic energy, and is absorbed by each cell.
Another part of Natural Energy is refined into Senjutsu Chakra and stored in Yin Seal.
This is the process for Sage Transformation.
It is a feasible path that Shita Genichi has gradually researched after decades of hard work.
Based on its own Magnetism Release Kekkei Tōta, it absorbs the earth's magnetic field and the electromagnetic Natural Energy between heaven and earth to attack body cells Sage Transformation.
The cells were gradually saturated, and Shita Genichi slowly opened his eyes to end his practice.
Looking at the frowning Tsunade, he said, "How about changing directions temporarily?"
Tsunade raised his head slightly confused. "Change the direction?"
Shita Genichi floated up from the desk, and then landed next to Tsunade: "You can use chakra as the source of life, right?"
Tsunade curled his lips and said, "Yang Release Of course I can do it!"
Shita Genichi smiled and said, "Water is the source of life, and the earth is the place where life is carried."
"People will die if they don't drink water, and plants will die if they don't have water or nutrients provided by the earth."
"Well, maybe it's a bit abstract, but... then just use what you're best at!"
"Bringing objects to life with Yang Release."
Shita Genichi stamped the wooden floor with his foot. "Try using Yang Release's chakra to inject life into this dry wood and let it sprout and grow again."
Tsunade was confused after hearing this. "This... is this still Wood Release?"
Shita Genichi smiled faintly, "Just do as I say."
Shizune behind the desk on the right raised his head and smiled, "Lady Tsunade and Wood Release don't necessarily have to be combined with Water Release and Earth Release!"
"Just like Magnet Release, Lady Tsunade, you also know that Earth Release+Wind Release, or Earth Release+Lightning Release can be transformed into Magnet Release, although the performance is somewhat different."
"And Wind Release+Water Release is not necessarily Ice Release."
"Water Release+Earth Release, it doesn't have to be Wood Release, it can also be Corrosion Release!"
Tsunade was embarrassed and annoyed after hearing this. "Of course I know this!"
These theories were all mentioned by Shita Genichi in <Theory of Kekkei Genkai>.
Shizune This bastard reminded me like this, is he saying that she is not serious about reading?
Following Shita Genichi, this little pervert, is getting more and more outrageous!
In response to Tsunade's embarrassment, Shizune covered her mouth and chuckled.
With a slight hum, Tsunade fell into deep thought.
Shita Genichi floated up quietly to Shizune, and then the two people whispered there.
Suddenly, a knock on the door interrupted Tsunade's thinking, and Shita Genichi and Shizune also closed their mouths.
Tsunade raised his head and said, "Come in!"
Namikaze Minato pushed the door open and walked in. "Lord Hokage, this is Chunin Ninja Exams's plan."
Tsunade reached out to take it, then lowered his head to read.
"Brother Minato, is there any progress with Ice Release?"
Shita Genichi asked casually.
He had given up his expectations for Uzumaki Kushina, became pregnant and gave birth to a child, and after giving birth, his thoughts were all on Naruto, and he basically gave up on spiritual practice.
Since this year, Namikaze Minato has played an increasingly important role in Hokage Office, and has basically become the leader of the Hokage Assistant team.
Commonly known as Deputy Hokage!
Otherwise, Tsunade would not be so leisurely thinking about Wood Release Secret Technique in the office.
"It's still a little worse."
Namikaze Minato said slightly embarrassed.
After all, disciple Kakashi has developed Storm Release on his own. As a teacher, he has been holding the Ice Release scroll for several years, but there is still no result.
Shita Genichi thought for a while and said, "Maybe Minato is not suitable for Ice Release, so you can try other Kekkei Genkai!"
"For example, Lightning Release and Fire Release, Wind Release and Lightning Release, even Wind Release and Fire Release..."
Namikaze Minato's natural attributes are wind, thunder and fire. Water Release is the one who was trained later and can be said to be the least good at it.
"Actually, I already have an idea in this regard, but I haven't had time to implement it yet."
Namikaze Minato smiled.
Ice Release may indeed not be suitable, but Scorch Release, or Wind and Thunder Fusion... His idea is to improve the direction of Rasengan, or Body Flicker Technique.
However, Ice Release is not something he intends to put down, and it can be used as a good reference.
Shita Genichi immediately said after hearing this, "Brother Minato, come to me anytime if you need anything."
Namikaze Minato nodded and said with a smile, "I won't be polite to you."
With Kakashi and Sarutobi Shinnosuke developing Kekkei Genkai, Konoha finally has an atmosphere of development and research.
I just don't know how long this enthusiasm can last.
Shita Genichi I hope that people will continue to succeed, so that this atmosphere can be maintained.
At this time Tsunade raised his head and said, "There is no problem with the plan, let's do it like this!"
"Sunagakure, Kirigakure, Takigakure, Yugakure, Minato please arrange for someone to notify you as soon as possible."
"As for Amegakure, let Kakashi go!"
Namikaze Minato thought thoughtfully, "Is it because Akatsuki might be hiding in Land of Rain?"
Tsunade nodded. "According to intelligence, Amegakure seems to have had an abnormal rebellion some time ago. The specific situation is still unclear."
"The sealing of Amegakure is no worse than that of Kirigakure."
Shita Genichi listened and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly.
Rebellion?
Is Nagato taking revenge on Amegakure?
After Namikaze Minato left, Tsunade immediately called Uchiha Obito: "Obito, go and call Kakashi."
Uchiha Obito, who was wearing a mask, nodded. "Yes!"
Uchiha Obito turned around and left. About three minutes later, Kakashi wearing a mask appeared inside Hokage Office.
Tsunade looked at Kakashi who took off his mask and said, "Kakashi, tomorrow you will lead a team to Amegakure and forward the invitation to join Chunin Exams to the leader of Amegakure, Hanzo."
Kakashi nodded.
Tsunade thought, "Also, Kakashi, you should pay attention to Amegakure's situation this time when you go to Amegakure, especially Hanzo."
After Tsunade finished speaking, Shita Genichi reminded, "Kakashi, pay attention to safety."
"Don't act rashly."
"If something goes wrong, withdraw immediately."
Tsunade turned to look at Shita Genichi: "Do you think something is wrong with Hanzo?"
Shita Genichi nodded. "This possibility is very high."
"You also know that those three people have very strong feelings for each other, and Akatsuki also needs a better way to hide his superficial identity."
"They themselves are rooted in Land of Rain, and they once called themselves Rain Ninja. It can even be said that Hanzo betrayed them!"
Tsunade frowned, a little hesitant to let Shita Genichi go, but quickly rejected the idea.
Now Shita Genichi cannot move easily to avoid making the other party too nervous.
Shita Genichi said, "By the way, Kakashi, when will you learn Flying Thunder God too?"
Kakashi resisted the urge to roll his eyes, "This technique is currently only mastered by you and Minato-sensei. It is not that easy to learn."
Shita Genichi smiled and said, "You are Kakashi."
Kakashi sighed, "I'll try my best."
There is always someone chasing you behind you to practice. This feeling...
"Already studying Sensory Ninjutsu with Minato-sensei."
Kakashi feels like he is reporting the progress of his practice to his father.
But the real dad hardly cares about these things now, and conversations tend to focus on thoughts and mentality.
That's how it was settled.
After Kakashi left, Tsunade continued to lower his head and ponder the possibility Shita Genichi just raised.
Shita Genichi and Shizune quietly develop an office romance.
It was almost lunch time when suddenly there was a slight clicking sound in the office.
Shizune raised his head in confusion, looked for the sound, and suddenly stood up. "This...Lord Hokage, you did it!"
Next to Tsunade's desk, the wooden floor was broken, and a small green sapling grew out.
"Really did it Wood Release!"
Shizune was surprised. "As expected of Genichi!"
Tsunade was originally surprised and happy, but his face darkened immediately after hearing this. "Hey, Shizune, this is the result of my hard work."
"Although this guy gave me some advice, there's no need to ignore me!"
Shizune immediately smiled awkwardly and quickly made up his mind, "Of course Lord Hokage is also very powerful!"
Tsunade hummed and continued to express dissatisfaction.
Shita Genichi looked at the sapling on the floor and smiled, "This is not Wood Release, it's just Yang Release."
Tsunade only regards Yang Release Chakra as its vitality, allowing dead trees to sprout again.
It is obviously different from the real Wood Release, and there is no new change in properties.
Just like Gaara's secret technique of controlling sand, and Paper Person of God Technique of Konan, it cannot be called sand escape, nor can it be called Paper Release.
Gaara controls sand and Konan controls paper. They are essentially a means of controlling ninja tools.
Tsunade also nodded. "It is indeed just an application of Yang Release."
Shita Genichi stood up and came to the sapling, stretched out his hand to cut it off. "But it is also a very big progress. I believe you, Fourth Generation Eye, have a different understanding of vitality."
Tsunade nodded thoughtfully. "Indeed."
Shizune asked curiously, "Then the next step is still to combine Earth Release and Water Release?"
Shita Genichi did not answer, but said, "It's time to eat, let's talk about it when we get home."
Tsunade waved his hand. "You go ahead, I'll think about it again, Shizune bring me a copy when you come back."
Just as Shizune was about to nod, Shita Genichi said, "Yondaime, don't you want to finish Wood Release as soon as possible?"
"You don't want to be surpassed by so many subordinates as Hokage, right?"
Tsunade frowned, always feeling that what this guy said was weird.
Shita Genichi smiled and said, "Sometimes choice is more important than hard work."
"Let's go, I have a better way for you to understand the mystery of Wood Release!"
Tsunade stood up, stretched, and muttered, "Mysterious."
"Then let's go!"
The next moment, the three people disappeared from the office and appeared at Shita Genichi's home.
Uzumaki Ina was busy in the kitchen, and Shizune quickly ran to help.
"Come with me!"
Shita Genichi said to Tsunade, and then led her to a Quiet Room with no decorations.
Sitting cross-legged on the wooden floor, Shita Genichi pointed to the opposite side.
Tsunade sat across from Shita Genichi in confusion.
Shita Genichi said, "You also know about Yin-Yang Release's technique, right?"
Tsunade nodded, and then asked doubtfully, "So, you want to say, use Yin-Yang Release to synthesize Wood Release?"
Shita Genichi chuckled, "No way?"
"Yin Release creates something tangible from the invisible, and Yang Release injects life into the form."
Pointing to his head, Shita Genichi said, "Lady Tsunade, don't limit your thinking."
Tsunade frowned. "That being said, I'm not proficient in Yin Release."
She is born with five attributes of Yang, fire, water, earth and thunder.
But in fact, everyone has Yin Release, but they may not have the talent in this area.
After all, if you can extract chakra, how could you not have Yin Release?
Shita Genichi said no more, but extended his palm to Tsunade.
Tsunade was confused. "What?"
Shita Genichi's eyes were as deep as the sea. "Let you realize the power of Wood Release!"
Tsunade extends his palm.
Snap!
Covering it with both hands, the next moment, their spiritual consciousness appeared in a spiritual space constructed with chakra.
At this moment, the chakras of the two people blended together, and their thoughts and consciousness became more intimate than ever before. They were linked together, and information could be obtained from the consciousness level without the need for verbal communication.
Of course, occasionally I feel other things.
Damn little pervert!
Tsunade hummed quietly.
"Lady Tsunade, don't curse me secretly in your heart, I can sense it."
Shita Genichi said solemnly, "Also, concentrate your energy and carefully feel the changes in my chakra."
It seemed that he was not the one who had the wrong thoughts towards Tsunade.
More shameless than that bastard Jiraiya.
Tsunade thought to himself, then dismissed distracting thoughts and lowered his eyes.
She didn't want to be underestimated by this lecherous brat!
Shita Genichi nodded with satisfaction, and then in the next moment, in the spiritual space, buds broke through the ground, sprouted, and then grew vigorously.
These grasses and trees do not grow very fast, they gradually spread throughout the spiritual space, turning the originally empty spiritual space into a green forest.
Tsunade lowered his eyes and sensed carefully, and could clearly sense the fusion process of chakra and how to create plants. If chakra is used as life, these plants can grow rapidly.
It can be said that Shita Genichi is equivalent to clearly showing the answer to the question Wood Release in front of Tsunade, and it also comes with a very detailed problem-solving process.
"Your Wood Release... is the Kekkei Tōta that combines the changes of three properties!"
Opening his eyes, Tsunade looked at Shita Genichi in shock.
What she just felt was the fusion of three changes in properties: Water Release, Earth Release, and Yang Release.
Shita Genichi nodded calmly. "Three types."
This is why he previously recommended Tsunade to start with Yang Release.
It is precisely because he has cultivated Kekkei Tōta Wood Release that he has this experience and confidence.
And Tsunade is also a smart person, who can understand everything at once.
"Did you just feel it?"
Shita Genichi said, "Whether chakra makes water, wood, or other substances, it is the transformation of energy and matter, but I regard it as a part of Yin-Yang Release."
Everything has yin and yang!
The essence of chakra comes from yin and yang.
"The property change of Yin Release is actually very simple. Come and feel it."
Shita Genichi once again demonstrated the process of Yin Release's property changes for Tsunade, and then said, "Of course, you don't have to combine the two property changes of yin and yang to fuse Wood Release. I just proposed another possibility."
Tsunade nodded.
During lunch, Tsunade was a little absent-minded.
Shita Genichi doesn't care about digging the hole, just enjoy the food with Uzumaki Ina and Shizune.
In the afternoon, Shita Genichi did not practice at Hokage Office, but stayed at home and was busy in the study.
I have gained a lot this year and I have not yet completely sorted it out.
At the same time.
Namikaze Minato on the other side is also studying at home, but this is just a clone, and the main body is still busy at Hokage Building.
Zero-Tails's chakra allows him to be busy with Hokage Building's affairs while also taking care of his practice.
