"If left unchecked, the timelines of the two worlds will severely conflict, ultimately leading to the simultaneous collapse and destruction of both worlds."
Xin's face darkened when he heard the word "destruction".
"Stop talking nonsense and just tell me the solution!"
The system's voice was very calm as it presented the final solution.
The solution is simple.
"The energy essence of this Dragon Vein lake before us already belongs to that mutated parallel world."
"As long as the host completely absorbs this dragon Dragon Vein, severing the energy foundation of the parallel world..."
"The laws of spacetime can automatically repair themselves and restore normal operation."
"And that parallel world created by the mutation will also disappear completely."
underground space
The purplish-blue Dragon Vein energy transformed into a thick column of water.
This energy continuously flowed into Uchiha Xin's right hand.
Xin closed her eyes tightly.
He could clearly feel the energy reserves inside the system surging wildly.
Just then...
Xin frowned.
He keenly detected several Chakra fluctuations emanating from the passage above.
These several auras were rapidly approaching the underground space.
Xin didn't even turn his head.
A thought struck him.
The black vortex of the Flying Thunder God Space instantly opened up beside him.
Naruto Uzumaki and Yamato, who were in a coma, were lifted up by an invisible force.
The two were quickly sucked into the vortex.
The black vortex then closed and vanished without a trace.
After dealing with those two people.
A dazzling Yellow Flash suddenly illuminated the underground space.
Minato Namikaze landed steadily on the ground.
Akimichi Chōza and Shibi Aburame followed closely behind.
Protected in the center by them was Sara, the Red-Haired Queen of Roran.
"What are you doing!"
Minato immediately spotted Uchiha Xin, who was touching the core of the Dragon Vein.
Minato was taken aback.
He flipped his wrist.
A specially made trident Kunai slipped from his palm in an instant.
Minato's muscles tensed up.
He stared intently at Xin.
The power of the Dragon Vein is terrifying; this young man is actually directly absorbing this violent Natural Energy!
This is completely beyond the common sense of Minato.
Xin turned his head.
He looked calmly at Minato, whose face was full of vigilance.
"Take it easy."
Xin's tone was flat.
"I'm dealing with this ticking time bomb."
Minato frowned.
He didn't loosen his grip on the Kunai at all.
"Handling potential hazards?"
Minato questioned in a deep voice.
Xin nodded.
He patiently offered his explanation.
"In order to create puppets, Mukade forcibly extracted the Dragon Vein."
"This has made the energy here extremely volatile."
"If we don't absorb all this spilled energy..."
"Once the Dragon Vein experiences a large-scale upheaval, the entire Rōran will be blown to smithereens."
"It could even trigger unpredictable spacetime chaos, affecting the entire Shinobi World."
Upon hearing these words...
Minato closed his eyes.
He unleashed his sensory abilities, carefully probing the energy fluctuations around him.
A moment later.
Minato opened his eyes.
He discovered that the previously turbulent, purplish-blue Chakra was now becoming calm and docile at a visible speed.
That intense sense of oppression was rapidly dissipating.
Minato breathed a sigh of relief.
He put the Flying Thunder God Kunai back into his ninja tool pouch.
"I see."
Minato indicates agreement.
It seems we misunderstood you.
"You are indeed doing something to save everyone."
Minato lowered his guard.
at this time.
Sara, who had been hiding behind the Minato, mustered up her courage and stepped out.
She crossed her arms over her chest.
Sara's steps were somewhat hurried.
She walked up to Xin and bowed deeply.
"Thank you."
Sara's voice was very sincere.
Thank you for saving Rōran.
"Thank you for exposing Anrokuzan's ambitions and saving my life."
Xin looked at the Red-Haired girl in front of him.
He grinned mischievously.
"Oh, so Her Majesty isn't putting on airs anymore?"
Xin deliberately dragged out his words in a teasing tone.
"Just now upstairs, you kept calling me a bastard."
"You even ordered those junkyard makers to chop me into mincemeat!"
Hearing this rehashing of old grievances...
Sara's cheeks flushed bright red instantly.
The blush spread all the way to the base of her fair ears.
"I... I didn't know the situation!"
Sara stammered in her defense.
Ignorance is no excuse.
"How can you be so petty and hold grudges!"
Sara stomped her foot in embarrassment and annoyance.
Xin chuckled softly.
He didn't continue teasing the shy girl.
Xin pointed to the Dragon Vein lake behind him, which had shrunk by more than half.
"I want to take all of this Dragon Vein energy."
Xin looked into Sara's eyes.
"You are the Queen of Rōran."
"This Dragon Vein is considered your National Treasure."
Would you mind if I took it?
Sara looked in the direction Xin was pointing.
She watched the purplish-blue energy gradually dry up.
Sara shook her head vigorously.
I don't mind.
Sara's expression became very complicated.
"This Dragon Vein doesn't even qualify as National Treasure."
"It is a heavy shackle around the neck of the Rōran royal family."
Sara recalled her mother's tragic death.
"We, the people of Rōran, have lived in constant fear for generations in order to protect this power."
"After my mother died, Anrokuzan used the Dragon Vein to imprison me in a tower."
"He treated me like a puppet to control Rōran."
Sara looked up.
She stared intently at Xin.
"Your ability to take this power away is a complete relief for me and for the entire Rōran."
When he said these words...
Sara's gaze toward Xin held a strange glint.
That was the innocent confusion of a young girl just beginning to experience love.
It is also the gratitude of someone trapped in despair to their redeemer.
During her dark and hopeless years of house arrest.
The black-haired boy in front of her was the first person to forcefully break in and truly save her.
A special feeling quietly took root and sprouted in Sara's heart.
Just as the two were talking...
"Bite!"
The system's mechanical voice rang out in Xin's mind precisely on time.
" Dragon Vein energy absorption complete."
"The laws of spacetime have begun to repair themselves."
"24 hours to go."
"One day later, the host will be forcibly returned to the original timeline."
Upon hearing this prompt, Xin let out a long sigh of relief.
The dazzling purple-blue light in the underground space was completely extinguished.
The enormous dragon Dragon Vein was completely drained.
Xin turned around.
He faced Minato and the others.
"The matter is settled."
Xin patted the dust off his hands.
"I should leave here too."
Upon hearing this...
Sara's body trembled violently.
Are you leaving?
Sara looked completely surprised.
She took a big step forward, her hands instinctively gripping the hem of her skirt.
Her eyes were full of reluctance.
She finally met someone she could rely on.
But the other party was about to leave.
Minato looked at Xin.
Minato's expression turned very serious.
"Now that the crisis has been resolved..."
"To avoid historical confusion."
Minato offered his own suggestions.
