Ice Release Kekkei Genkai

"Look! What's that?"

Someone pointed to the sky and screamed in terror.

Everyone looked up.

A colossal creature appeared in the sky. It was a humanoid monster with two black wings on its back and an excessively large Samurai Sword at its waist.

"Y-Yokai!!"

The ignorant villagers, seeing this thing fly down from mid-air like a dark cloud covering the sky, were terrified and scattered like birds and beasts.

"This is..."

The girl, still bound to the rack, stared in disbelief at the monster that had fallen from the sky.

When they got close enough, they could see clearly that it wasn't a monster at all, but a Chakra beast made entirely of Chakra.

"How much astonishing Chakra reserves would it take to create such a colossal creature?"

In the woman's horror, the five-meter-tall Tengu, flapping its enormous wings, arrived above her, its massive hands like jars, and seized her.

The woman had long been prepared to die, but even so, she couldn't help but feel fear when faced with this thing.

Suddenly, everything went black, and a force lifted him off the ground, sending him flying into the air.

"I thought my progress in strength over the past six months had been astonishing enough, but I never imagined that your progress would be just as incredible."

After transforming, Mei Terumi looked at the Chakra beast descending from the sky, filled with utter horror.

Long Ye had just said she wanted to investigate Snow Curtain Village, and she hadn't taken it seriously at first. But when she actually released the Chakra beast, she realized how terrifying it was.

Judging from its aura alone, he had a premonition that even a typical Near-Kage Level expert would have a hard time being a match for this Chakra beast.

What's even more astonishing is that their location was at least two miles away from the village, yet Long Ye was able to control the Chakra beast from such a distance.

Chakra beasts are formed from a person's Chakra and require a "tail" to maintain and control them. Long Ye extended this "tail" to over a thousand meters, which is simply unbelievable.

Tengu descended from the sky.

After landing, it dissipated, transformed into Chakra, and returned to Long Ye's body.

At the same time, the woman's figure also appeared.

"Huh? Who is she? Could she be the person you're looking for?"

Mei Terumi looked surprised.

Long Ye released her Tengu to check the situation, but unexpectedly, it brought the person back directly.

Long Ye smiled and nodded, "This time it was also luck! But it's also thanks to him revealing his abilities and incurring the villagers' hatred, otherwise he might not have been able to find it so easily."

The lingering effects of the Blood Mist Era still influence many people in the Land of Water. They view those with Kekkei Genkai as the source of disaster, believing that only by eradicating such individuals can they achieve lasting peace.

Long Ye went up and untied her.

This was a woman with snow-white skin and a cool, beautiful demeanor; judging from her appearance, she wasn't much older than Long Ye and the other woman.

At that moment, she was staring at the two of them with a wary expression.

"You're the one who came from the Land of Snow a long time ago, the one with the Ice Release Kekkei Genkai, right?" Mei Terumi asked first.

The woman was startled.

Upon hearing the question, she instantly guessed that the two people in front of her were likely the masterminds behind the recent commotion in looking for him, and her heart sank to the bottom.

From any perspective, she didn't think there was anything good going on.

"Now that you've found us, do with us as you please!"

The woman was expressionless, stood straight, and appeared very arrogant.

Long Ye smiled and said, "It seems you've misunderstood. If we wanted to harm you, we wouldn't have saved you earlier. To tell you the truth, it was actually me who was looking for you. I asked the Mizukage to come find you."

Mei Terumi, having transformed, rippled like water as her body returned to its original form.

The woman was visibly shocked to see Mei Terumi dressed as the Mizukage.

Before her stood the Fifth Mizukage, the supreme leader of the Land of Water. Having lived in this small village for years, she had never seen a person of such status and position.

When she looked at Long Ye again, her expression was different from before.

Someone who can so easily get the Mizukage's help is definitely not an ordinary person, regardless of their status or strength.

The thought of escaping that had been lurking in my mind was instantly extinguished.

Facing two Kage Level experts, he had no chance to resist, let alone escape.

"Now that we've found the person, I'll get straight to the point. To be precise, I wasn't looking for you as a person, but rather for the Ice Release Kekkei Genkai."

"You were sent by the Land of Snow!"

When the woman heard that Long Ye was looking for the Ice Release Kekkei Genkai, her expression changed drastically, revealing a hidden hatred.

Long Ye didn't understand what he was saying.

"I know nothing of the Land of Snow. I come from the Land of Fire. I'm not here to take your life, but rather to take something from your body for research. But rest assured, I have an agreement with the Mizukage and will not threaten your life..."

What Long Ye wanted to do was simply take some of this person's body cells, and cells exist within the body's tissues.

Despite his cryptic remarks, Mei Terumi still guessed the purpose of his trip.

Research on Cell Transplantation is no secret to the top leadership of any country.

After all, Kekkei Genkai are a strategic asset for a nation, and if they can be cultivated artificially, they are of great significance.

The Five Great Nations have all conducted extensive research on this topic, both openly and covertly, but most of their efforts have ended in failure because the problem of cell rejection is almost impossible to solve.

Moreover, even Madara Uchiha could only successfully Cell Transplantation by concealing the elemental properties within them.

However, once hidden, the Kekkei Genkai power is lost, and for each country, it loses its significance for transplantation.

Mei Terumi smiled:

"So that's your purpose. But there are quite a few Kekkei Genkai users in Konoha. Why did you travel all this way to find someone with the Ice Release Kekkei Genkai?"

I'll tell you about this later when I have the chance.

Long Ye didn't say anything explicitly, and his gaze returned to the woman.

The woman wasn't stupid; she guessed that the other party might be eyeing his Kekkei Genkai, and said directly:

"You can take my Ice Release power if you want, but I must warn you, even if you do, you'll probably be disappointed."

"What do you mean?" Long Ye frowned slightly.

"Because the Kekkei Genkai I possess isn't as strong as you think. In my Yuki Clan, only the oldest bloodlines can be called true Kekkei Genkai..."

"Besides! If my Ice Release were truly that powerful, I wouldn't have been hiding in a small village, only to be easily captured by you!"

This Long Ye was certainly aware of it.

This is just like when he transplanted Hashirama Senju's cells.

It is precisely because of this person's godlike strength that his cells possess extraordinary activity. Once the transplant is successful, the power gained by the recipient will naturally be immeasurable.

Conversely, if he were to transplant the abilities of a Senju Clan ninja with Wood Release but average strength, even if the transplant were successful, the resulting abilities would be extremely weak.
