"Certainly."
"These are all my conjectures based on the scene before me; there is no empirical evidence to prove whether my guesses are correct."
But one thing is certain!
"I ended up here because of the virus's damage to my body."
At this point, Shin'un frowned.
"So, do I still have a connection with my body now?"
"If I were to load [ Bloodline Essence ] now, and according to its setting to modify my body according to my desires, would it restore my monstrous body to normal?"
"Will I return to my physical body at that time?"
Let me think about it...
Looking down, Shin'un silently pondered as he watched the streaks of light that occasionally flashed across the spherical ocean beneath him.
"After being infected by the virus and turning into a monster, am I still myself?"
After frowning and pondering for a moment, Shin'un still couldn't come up with an answer.
Shaking his head, Shin'un glanced at the colorless mist slowly drifting beside him and decided to stop hesitating.
What am I hesitating about?
Even if you can't return to your physical body after loading [ Bloodline Essence ], there's still this.
"I can easily create a skill to restore the physical body first, and then create a skill similar to dimensional travel."
"Then, not only can I return to the Hokage world, but I can also get two freebies..."
"No!" Shin'un raised an eyebrow at the thought.
"Expand your perspective!"
"With this mist, which seems to be the energy source for the Skill Editor, can't I edit a few skills?"
"Edit as many as you want, edit whatever skills you want."
A smile appeared on Shin'un's face, and a hint of anticipation flickered in his heart.
"Alright!"
"There's no use thinking about it anymore. Let's load the [ Bloodline Essence ] first."
Looking down at the skill editing panel in front of him, Shin'un had a sudden thought.
"[ Bloodline Essence ], commencing loading!"
As Shin'un issued the command to load the skill, the Skill Editor panel immediately showed fluctuations.
After the scene of the water surface rippled, the content on the panel was updated.
Skill Name: [Input Field]...
Skills already equipped: [ Extreme Reaction ],... [ Bloodline Essence ].
Upon seeing the skill loading complete, Shin'un's eyes narrowed... z. br>
"Regardless of the outcome, while the colorless mist is still around, let's load up a few skills first!"
After saying that, Shin'un immediately looked at the input field on the front panel and began typing rapidly.
Skill Name: [ Omnipotence ]
Skill effect: [You can accomplish anything you desire, like a god...]
In a short moment, Shin'un had already written half of the skill effect, but before he could finish typing it, a sudden change occurred around him.
"What's going on?!"
Shin'un shifted his gaze from the panel in front of him and looked at his own body in surprise.
His translucent body, which had maintained a constant brightness, suddenly changed; the previously gentle light suddenly brightened, becoming so dazzling that it was impossible to look directly at it.
"Is it because the skill just finished loading?"
Seeing the sudden burst of light from his body, Shin'un had some vague guesses in his mind.
Just as he thought of this, Shin'un's body seemed to be equipped with propulsion systems, and he began to move rapidly like a beam of light.
Similar to streaks of light that occasionally flash across a spherical ocean, only the light surrounding Shin'un was far more dazzling.
"What direction is this?"
At this moment, Shin'un, who was being swept along by the light and moving forward at a frenzied pace, opened his eyes and quickly identified the direction he was heading based on the spherical ocean beneath him.
"Should I go back the way I came?"
"As I guessed..."
The test was correct; the [ Bloodline Essence ] has begun to work, and it is transforming my body according to my inner desires.
"And naturally, I hope my body can return to normal."
"And if my body returns to normal, this thing that resembles a soul will naturally return to my body."
"Only..."
Turning his head, Shin'un glanced regretfully at the colorless mist drifting in the far distance behind him.
"Unfortunately, editing skills are out of the question."
"Sigh~"
With a sigh, Shin'un turned to look ahead.
Have we arrived?
Shin'un, transformed into a streak of light, moved with incredible speed, arriving at a familiar sphere in the blink of an eye.
Without any pause, Shin'un, enveloped in light, crossed the spherical barrier and rushed into the sphere.
The moment Shin'un re-entered the sphere, boundless darkness and nothingness once again filled his entire field of vision.
"It seems to be moving even faster?"
Although it was pitch black, Shen Kumogakure sensed that he was still accelerating forward.
A few minutes later, as Shin'un reached his speed limit, the darkness and nothingness in his sight disappeared.
"Here it is?"
Shin'un opened his eyes and looked around.
A strong wind was blowing, and scattered white clouds were all around.
Shin'un shifted his gaze, looking at the curved land at the end of his line of sight, then down at the vast earth beneath his dangling feet.
Looking up, perhaps because of the sufficient altitude, even though it was daytime, the blue sky above faintly revealed the black stars.
"High altitude?"
Before Shin'un, the semi-transparent body that had been suspended high in the air began to move again.
As if with a specific goal in mind, Shin'un's body moved directly towards the ground below.
Soon, as the distance closed, what Shen Yun saw made Shin'un raise his eyebrows.
" Konoha?"
Below, the Konoha, appearing tiny and exquisite due to its high altitude, came into view.
Gradually, the Hokage Rock at the edge of the village, the Hokage Building in the center of the village, and the Anbu Ninja responsible for sealing off the streets came into view one by one.
After scanning the area for a moment, Shin'un also saw the ruins of Konoha Hospital Konoha Hospital, as well as the rock walls surrounding it.
Incidentally, Shin'un also spotted Orochimaru, who was organizing hundreds of ninjas to build a barrier in the distance from the ruins of Konoha Hospital.
Are you setting up a barrier?
Looking down at the entire Konoha, Shin'un couldn't help but laugh.
"I've never seen Konoha from this perspective before; it's quite novel."
After taking a few quick glances, as they drew closer to the ground, Shin'un's smile faded, and he shifted his gaze to the ruins of Konoha Hospital.
Upon seeing this, Shin'un immediately frowned.
On the stone walls surrounding the city, he saw hundreds of ninjas, led by Sparrow and the heads of various ninja clans, looking at the ruins of Konoha Hospital with expressions of impending doom.
What are they on guard against?
Shin'un shifted his gaze to the ruins of Konoha Hospital.
At first glance, Shin'un noticed a very suspicious monster.
"What kind of monster is that?"
Squinting, Shin'un focused his gaze.
"Two meters tall, with a layer of bluish-purple carapace on its surface, and the gaps in the carapace even glow?"
"That's... plasma?"
"A circle grew out from behind, and there were electric balls inside the circle?"
Shin'un frowned slightly, a bad feeling creeping into his heart.
"A special monster whose main mutation is lightning... Could that inhuman thing be me?"
