Takigakure.
Before dawn, Shinichi went to Forbidden Grounds of Back Mountain alone.
In his hand, he held the pot of Hero Water.
In Tenseigan's field of vision, the water in the pot was filled with dense Natural Energy.
In the original work, Senjutsu is used as Natural Energy.
Natural Energy, Physical Energy, and Spiritual Energy are mixed together in a certain proportion to get Senjutsu Chakra.
But if Natural Energy absorbs too much, people will turn into stone.
If you drink Hero Water, Chakra can increase dozens of times. Here's the reason!
But where did so many Natural Energy and Hero Water come from?
Shinichi Follow Forbidden Grounds and go all the way in.
In the innermost part of Forbidden Grounds, there is a tree named Giant Tree. The trunk of the tree cannot be hugged by more than a dozen people.
In the field of vision of Tenseigan and in the trunk of Giant Tree, all that is flowing is Natural Energy.
The roots of Giant Tree are deep underground, extending to every corner of Back Mountain.
The roots of the Explosive Tag tree outside are all connected to the roots of Giant Tree.
The Natural Energy in Giant Tree followed the roots and flowed into the tree.
No wonder I used this piece of tree to make Explosive Tag!
At this moment, Shinichi and Tenseigan felt hot.
This breath...
It's God Tree!
In the original book, thousands of years ago, Ōtsutsuki Isshiki and Kaguya planted God Tree on this planet.
The roots of God Tree have penetrated into every corner of the continent, absorbing the life energy of the planet.
But the Giant Tree tree in front of us is not God Tree.
God Tree in the original book is higher than the mountain, and the tree crown almost touches the sky.
No matter how big the Giant Tree is in front of you, it is still far behind compared to God Tree.
But this smell is exactly the same as God Tree.
Shinichi walked around Giant Tree.
Under Giant Tree, people from Takigakure dug a stone trough, and there was still a thin layer of water in the stone trough.
Hero Water, it's taken from here.
It takes a hundred years to fill a pot.
Shinichi stretched out his hand and pressed it on the tree trunk.
Tenseigan felt hot again.
Tenseigan looked into the trunk and saw something in the middle of the trunk, which was different from the entire tree Giant Tree.
The Natural Energy in that piece of stuff is thicker than the entire Giant Tree put together.
What is the origin of this Giant Tree tree?
Shinichi took back his hand and looked at Hero Water in his hand.
Just mix Natural Energy with Physical Energy and Spiritual Energy to get Senjutsu Chakra!
But if it's not mixed well, it turns into a stone.
To drink or not to drink?
Fortunately, he has Tenseigan, so even if he encounters danger, he can force Natural Energy out of his body.
This risk is worth taking!
Shinichi pulled out the cork and drank Hero Water in one breath.
Natural Energy rushed into his body.
The fingertips felt numb at first and then started to harden.
No, it's Petrification!
In Tenseigan's field of vision, Natural Energy was running rampant in Chakra Pathways, pressing out bit by bit on his own Chakra.
Shinichi mixes its own Chakra and Natural Energy together.
Chakra and Natural Energy collide with each other, and slowly merge together while colliding with each other.
The stiffness in the fingertips slowly receded.
Around Shinichi's eyes, a circle of Eye Shadow appeared.
Sage Mode!
As soon as Sage Mode was opened, Tenseigan changed.
At the beginning, Shinichi used the Chakra of Giant Tenseigan on the moon to condense a Truth-Seeking Orb.
Now, when he raised his hand, a Truth-Seeking Orb floated in front of his palm.
Attraction!
He pulled a huge boulder dozens of meters away to him.
Repulsive Force!
The boulder flew out and smashed into the mountain wall.
Shinichi stepped lightly, and his whole body slowly left the ground and floated in mid-air.
He can fly!
Shinichi was floating in the air and looked at the Giant Tree tree again.
After turning on Sage Mode, you can feel the Natural Energy between heaven and earth.
He found something in the shape of a branch in the center of the trunk.
Is this... is this a branch of God Tree?
When God Tree became Ten-Tails, did a branch fall on Ryūgakure's Back Mountain?
Then it grew in the ground and slowly grew into this Giant Tree tree.
Or maybe a seed from God Tree fell here and sprouted?
Which one it is, Shinichi can only guess.
But no matter which one it is, this Giant Tree tree is inseparable from God Tree!
Shinichi is floating in the air, looking at the entire Back Mountain below.
Now, his strength has entered the echelon of Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha!
Takigakure, Back Mountain.
Next to the tree, a Wooden Hut was set up.
Takigakure already knows how to make Explosive Tag, so Takigawa picked a few Takigakure ninjas with the most skillful hands, and worked day and night in Wooden Hut to make it.
Within a few days, the first batch of Explosive Tag was produced.
"Master Light Shadow, the first batch of Explosive Tag, a total of five hundred pieces were made."
"Everyone at Takigakure knows the rules. Not a word about Explosive Tag will be spread to outsiders."
"Takigawa, how much does one piece of Explosive Tag cost?"
"One piece is less than one hundred taels."
Kakuzu picked up a piece of Explosive Tag and looked at it over and over.
"What's the price on the market?"
"Now the price has risen to 30,000 taels per piece, and it's still hard to buy."
The cost is less than one hundred taels!
Buy thirty thousand taels!
The price difference is a full three hundred times!
Because the raw materials are our own, the cost of Explosive Tag is naturally shockingly low.
"Master Light Shadow, take these batches of Explosive Tag and sell them..."
"Not for sale."
"Not for sale?!"
Kakuzu became anxious on the spot.
"A Explosive Tag can be sold for thirty thousand taels."
"These five hundred pieces equal more than fifteen million taels!"
"It's not my Kakuzu style to make money without making money in front of me!"
"Hyuga Village's Kunai and Shuriken are sold out. Shinobi World, why not Explosive Tag?"
"Explosive Tag, is different from Kunai and Shuriken."
"What's the difference? Aren't they all Ninja Tools?"
"The lethality of Kunai and Shuriken depends on the user."
"Explosive Tag is different. Explosive Tag used by Genin may kill a Jonin..."
"Selling Explosive Tag is completely funding the enemy."
Kakuzu was stunned for a moment.
"Our current Explosive Tag is not enough for our own use."
"At this stage, we must give priority to supplying Explosive Tag to ourselves."
"The most important thing is."
"Kakuzu, do you think Hyuga Village is short of money now?"
Kakuzu opened his mouth, but no words came out.
"Hyuga Village is not short of more than fifteen million taels."
"What Hyuga Village lacks is turning money into strength."
"Explosive Tag is something that can directly turn into strength."
"If Hyuga Village is short of money one day, Explosive Tag can be sold."
"But now, Hyuga Village is not short of money."
"Explosive Tag, give priority to the ninjas of Hyuga Village."
"When Hyuga Village realizes the freedom of Explosive Tag and there are too many Explosive Tag to use up, it will not be too late to sell them."
Kakuzu calculated it quickly in his mind.
"... Master Light Shadow is right!"
