Kaguya Nearly Came
Kurama only talked the talk; naturally, he wouldn't dare to touch Naruto.
Its body was reshaped by Uchiha Kei, and the feeling of weakness vanished.
Naruto's horrific injuries were real.
Furthermore, with Kurama being extracted from his body, Naruto's already weakened condition worsened.
Right now, they're barely holding on thanks to the Uzumaki Clan's abnormal self-healing ability.
Uchiha Kei crouched down, stretched out his hand, and the white particles intertwined wildly, solidifying into a tangible form.
A snow-white fruit suddenly appeared.
Apart from its color, the fruit is unremarkable, just like a mutated ordinary apple.
However, the aroma emitted by the fruit quickly spread to every corner of the Jiandu Grassland.
Every living being that smells the fruit experiences an involuntary stirring from the depths of its soul.
Own it!
Eat it!
Their instincts are driving them!
The Shinobi Alliance on the hillside also rushed over, but at the last moment, seeing Uchiha Kei and collected face, reason instantly prevailed.
"Teacher, what is this?"
Among the high-ranking members of the Shinobi Alliance, Senju Hashirama was the most excited, his voice even trembling.
He could feel the wood-attribute Chakra within his body surging like boiling water, almost bursting through his body and merging into the snow-white fruit.
Vitality!
A vitality so pure and pristine!
This vitality has an astonishingly strong attraction to wood-style Chakra!
"This is life."
Uchiha Kei held the fruit and slowly brought it to Naruto's lips.
The moment the snow-white fruit touched Naruto's lips, it transformed into a trickle that flowed through his entire body.
"Plop--"
All the Shinobi Alliance present couldn't help but swallow hard, staring at Naruto with longing.
"Life?"
Senju Hashirama didn't understand, "Since they are living beings, shouldn't they possess thought?"
Why must life have thought?
Uchiha Kei glanced back at him, then opened his palm, and white particles gathered towards him once more.
"Mountains are life, water is life, air is life, everything is life. Anything that has thought is definitely life, but not all life possesses thought."
"Hiss--"
The white particles transformed into a lifelike miniature horse.
The horse's hooves flew high, and it neighed joyfully, its eyes sparkling with extraordinary intelligence.
"Look, is this life?"
Uchiha Kei asked.
"This... is that right?"
Senju Hashirama seemed to have thought of something, but after pondering it carefully, he couldn't quite grasp the solution.
Uchiha Kei smiled, and the white horse in his palm instantly changed shape.
A small, swaying white weed suddenly appeared.
"And now?"
Senju Hashirama remained silent, staring blankly at the white weeds in his palm.
The white weeds swayed, looking incredibly realistic, with even a drop of pure dew clinging to one of their blades.
During the conversation, Naruto had already fully recovered, and his physical strength and Chakra were even stronger than before!
With the power of Kurama's Tailed Beast and the blessing of Sage Mode, he possesses strength comparable to the peak of the Sage of Six Paths Realm.
Now that Kurama has been removed and Sage Mode has not been used, he already possesses the strength of the peak of the Sage of Six Paths!
If one were to use Sage Mode, wouldn't one directly ascend to the Pseudo-Immortal Realm?
"Scene..."
After playing around with Kurama for a while, Naruto walked towards Uchiha Kei with teary eyes.
He cried because it wasn't Uchiha Kei who saved his life.
The bond between them runs so deep, what does a life-saving debt matter?
He cried because Uchiha Kei had revived Kurama.
If his stubbornness leads to the death of the Kurama, he will never have peace of mind for the rest of his life.
"Go cry somewhere else, you're shameful."
Uchiha Kei glanced at him.
"Okay, sure."
Naruto wiped away his tears and eagerly approached Kurama.
"Hashirama, you possess exceptional wood-style Chakra, and you've already reached the peak of the Sage of Six Paths. It's time to consider your future path."
Uchiha Kei placed the white weeds in Senju Hashirama's palm and rubbed his head.
Looking back at the more than ten thousand members of the Shinobi Alliance, Uchiha Kei's voice became loud and resonant, "The same goes for you all. I will slowly show you the path to Kage Level, Sage of Six Paths Realm, and Pseudo-Sage Realm!"
"As long as you are willing to work hard, your ninja way is strong enough!"
"The pseudo-fairyland is merely the starting point for your future!"
More than 10,000 Shinobi Alliance spontaneously cheered.
What a fake wonderland!
They had witnessed Fushimi Genshin's strength firsthand, and they were even more convinced of the power of Sasuke Uchiha and Uzumaki Naruto!
Their future selves...
You can also become a ninja in the pseudo-fairyland!
Just thinking about it makes their souls tremble!
They had no doubt that Uchiha Kei was deceiving them; whatever Uchiha Kei said would inevitably become reality!
This is the truth they believe in!
"Owner."
Kaguya pushed through the excited crowd and walked to Uchiha Kei's side. "The entire Fushimi Clan out. Should we continue across the Jiandu Grassland?"
Uchiha Kei took her soft hand, ignoring her face which instantly turned red, and said, "What do you think? I'll listen to you."
The phrase "I'll listen to you" almost caused Kaguya to have an orgasm on the spot, leaving her teetering on the verge of collapse.
"I... I think..."
Kaguya stammered, "The Shinobi Alliance should occupy the Jiandu Grassland as a foothold for the Shinobi World."
