It looks like I still need to track down the Queen of Roran's bloodline.
Of these three powerful sealing jutsu, Lin Ze had mastered only the Four Symbols Seal-just one-third of them.
Lin Ze estimated that to forcibly break the seal without causing much of a disturbance, he would need to master at least one more.
There was no point counting on Mount Myōboku. He had no opportunity to get near those toads; after all, he was no Child of Prophecy.
After turning it over in his mind, the only avenue left was to seek a breakthrough through the Queen of Roran's bloodline.
He shook his head, temporarily setting those tangled thoughts aside.
Lin Ze began concentrating fully on observing the sealing formula. But as he sensed the vast energy and intricate structure within it, the power of the Fish-Fish Fruit, Model: Azure Dragon inside him faintly produced an extremely weak resonance.
It was a peculiar sensation, not a stirring of chakra, but more like something deeper-the essence of a "dragon"-sensing the vast earth-vein energy below, which was likewise called the "Ryūmyaku," or "dragon vein."
The sensation vanished in a flash, so faint it was almost imperceptible. But Lin Ze was intensely focused at that moment and happened to notice that faint resonance.
