Land of Night 28 February.(Konoha 19)
Five thousand puppets whose performance far exceeds that of ordinary people work day and night, and the power they finally unleash is undoubtedly very shocking.
The first phase of the Artificial Dragon Vein project has finally been completed after more than three months. The next thing to do is to put a huge and solid 'palace' shell on it - officially entering the second phase of the project.
From the perspective of Ordinary People, even if you work for ten years, you may not be able to successfully complete the first phase of the project. Because of the harsh characteristics of thousands of meters above sea level, year-round severe cold and storms, any construction team composed of non-ninjas in this era will feel daunting.
Not to mention that during the construction of Artificial Dragon Vein, the surrounding area will be accompanied by strong energy radiation from time to time. For those who cannot use Chakra Ordinary People, it is extremely harmful, ranging from confusion to mental confusion and sudden death on the spot. It also highlights the limitations of ordinary construction teams.
As long as it is related to Chakra, it is a natural rule that ninjas must follow it.
As for using thousands of ninjas to work hard for months without sleep or sleep, without any need for food, accommodation, supplies or compensation, it is estimated that no ninja village is so unwise and can accomplish this without large-scale riots.
And this is only the first phase, and there will be the second and third phases with a larger amount of work and more resources.
Of course, the ninja powers can do this, but the cost and risk will also prohibit them.
Land of Night achieved this, and the time, manpower and other costs consumed during the period were pitifully low. Except for the consumption of resources, the rest was almost like whoring.
And these resources are insignificant for a powerful country like Land of Night.
Moreover, if part of the puppet is broken, you can replace it with new parts and continue to use it. If the whole thing is broken, just replace it with a brand new one. The scrapped torso can be sorted out and recycled and reused.
They won't hurt, won't complain, won't eat or drink, they only need lubricating oil and Chakra, and they can work continuously.
Not only in war, but in non-combat situations, they are also the unique vanguard troops of the entire Land of Night!
The top of Great Snow Mountain, this is the first time Yayoi has set foot in this promised land that belongs to him in the future.
The huge number of puppets are like hard-working worker ants, working tirelessly.
This time, they no longer cracked mountains and cracked rocks, transported or assembled precious and sophisticated equipment, but began to build a strong fortress to protect the new Dragon Vein.
The wind and snow that was so furious that it was about to freeze and tear the whole world apart continued to roar on the towering and precipitous top of Great Snow Mountain, making a heart-stopping whistling sound.
The entire sky was shrouded in the raging snowstorm, showing an oppressive gray tone. Thick, low-hanging clouds were intertwined with dense snowflakes, and no trace of sunlight could be seen, penetrating and shining down from above the clouds.
In the middle of a snowfield is the location of a huge altar.
This huge altar is in the shape of a standard circle, and the diameter exposed on the surface alone exceeds fifty meters.
Around the large circular altar, there are also torii gates forged from red wood. The torii gates are wrapped with white ropes covered with charms, which seem to be integrated with the entire altar.
Moreover, there are a large number of mantras engraved on the stone floor of the altar. Judging from the arrangement and pattern of the mantras, it is undoubtedly a variant application of the Uzumaki Clan that combines several advanced Sealing Jutsu.
At this time, Yayoi was standing in the center of the stone altar. A metal protruding hole with a diameter of half a meter appeared on the ground, as if it was deliberately protruding from the altar to peer into the outside world.
The eyehole, which is about half a meter wide, opens generously, emitting a solid blue light from inside, almost condensed into a solid object.
This is the materialized form of high concentration Chakra, so much so that even the surrounding air has been faintly eroded, and traces of bending have begun to appear.
This high-concentration blue energy body is also mixed with emerald green containing rich vitality. It is Yayoi that injects its own special Chakra with biological characteristics into it.
Half an hour later, until Yayoi finished transporting a sufficient amount of Chakra inside, as if to reconcile and seal the two energies, the circular metal eyelet slowly squeezed inwards like a trap, and finally was completely sealed tightly, falling into silence.
"Huh... I'm finally done. I'm really tired. I consumed a little too much Chakra..."
After doing all this, a faint look of exhaustion appeared on Yayoi's face. He couldn't help but clenched his fists and lightly beat his shoulders to relax his body.
Then, he looked at Irori who had followed him.
"Speaking of which, how many are left that haven't been dealt with yet?"
"This is the seventh one."
Irori answered without thinking.
"That means there are still two left to deal with."
Yayoi glanced at the huge circular altar at his feet. Its interior was filled with Artificial Dragon Vein devices and filled with high-density Chakra.
The metal eyelet located in the center of the altar is the core switch for turning on and off Artificial Dragon Vein. It requires a specific seal to control the opening and closing.
Whether it is an altar or a hole, these designs refer to the Dragon Vein sealing device of Rōran to a certain extent.
Now Artificial Dragon Vein is operating under the altar, extracting the energy from the mountains, the earth, the wind and snow, and then becoming a part of the circulation system of this land.
The energy in things like Dragon Vein is not inexhaustible, especially the natural Dragon Vein. No matter how much you save, it will be used up sooner or later.
What makes Artificial Dragon Vein better than natural Dragon Vein is that it can artificially interfere with the birthplace of this energy. For this reason, it is more uncontrollable than natural Dragon Vein and often riots.
Even with the most advanced Chakra filter device, this artificially created energy is still not easy to tame.
However, Yayoi is an exception.
His Chakra essence is a living thing, or a life with his strong will. It just appears in the form of Chakra, which is naturally close to the effect of Yin-Yang Release.
He injected his own Chakra into the Artificial Dragon Vein energy inside the altar and mixed it with it to make the energy generated by Artificial Dragon Vein as stable as possible. He then used the Chakra filtering device to complete the final process to make the temperament of this energy docile.
Yayoi is very familiar with this process.
Nightview City uses the same method to guide and balance the power of the earth's veins deep underground.
His current strength, as well as the interpretation and utilization of his own Chakra, are much better than before. Even if Artificial Dragon Vein is more violent than the natural Dragon Vein, he is still guided and tamed subtly by his Chakra's comfort.
"Want to take a break before working?"
Irori is a little worried about whether Yayoi's body can support it.
Each Artificial Dragon Vein requires Yayoi to inject a large amount of Chakra in order to boot safely.
Inject Chakra into seven Artificial Dragon Vein in a row, and the amount of Chakra from Yayoi has probably bottomed out.
Yayoi nodded, not showing off.
After resting for an hour, he walked along the dug sidewalk towards the upper level of the snowfield.
On the way to the upper snowfield, Yayoi occasionally glanced down and saw patches of land arranged in irregular steps below. The ice and snow above had been cleared over a large area, revealing a fairly flat landscape.
Each piece of flat land had a portion of its center hollowed out, and huge circular altars were cast one after another.
The stone floor is covered with sealing incantations, as are the torii gates and the incantation ropes. In addition to the one that just completed the infusion of Chakra, there are exactly seven of them, no more, no less.
Next, you only need to inject his Chakra into the two Artificial Dragon Vein above, and you are done.
In the same manner, Chakra was injected into the eighth Artificial Dragon Vein in the altar. Yayoi rested for a while before walking towards the highest point of Great Snow Mountain.
As soon as they arrived here, Yayoi and Irori heard the slight sound of sleeping mixed in the wind and snow.
It was a small hemispherical Barrier with a diameter of about three meters. It blocked the wind and snow from the outside world. Hisana, who was dressed in a red and white witch costume, was lying in the Barrier sleeping soundly. The bad environment around her could not affect her at all.
"..."
Yayoi and Irori were both slightly speechless, but they did not disturb each other's rest.
After all, using so many complex high-level Sealing Jutsu at one time consumes a lot of Hisana's Chakra and energy.
Even if the amount of Chakra she currently holds is likely to have truly reached the Tailed Beasts level.
It took half an hour for Yayoi to inject the last Artificial Dragon Vein into Chakra, finally completing the first phase of the work.
Next, just wait for the puppet army and complete the shell.
The second stage of work is not complicated, but it takes more time.
If the speed is fast, it will almost be completed by the middle of next year.
