The Gold and Silver Brothers, the Six Paths Tools?
It lasted for three whole days.
His original form maintained basic three meals a day and normal rest time, appearing quite relaxed.
But the Wood Clone are truly "working" around the clock.
It can be described as a humanoid Tailed Beast.
Or to be more precise, he was a combination of a sapling of the God Tree and Ōtsutsuki.
The Chakra that had been allocated was quickly replenished.
Efficiency is far beyond what ordinary people can imagine.
"Brush!"
Looking at the empty, secluded room.
Rikuto did not linger and activated the Flying Thunder God Technique.
They vanished from the spot in an instant.
Deep in the heart of the Land of Fire.
The root base is located underground on the outskirts of Konoha.
"Lord Rikuto!"
Not long after the Rikuto arrived here.
Shimura Danzō, Aburame Ryoma, and others rushed over.
"Have you found the person I told you to keep an eye on last time?" Rikuto skipped the pleasantries and went straight to the point, asking Danzo.
He's not some saint.
To the Rikuto, Danzo was merely a tool from beginning to end.
If I weren't powerful enough, I might have been controlled by Kotoamatsukami long ago.
In this situation, expecting him to be magnanimous and forgive and forget is unrealistic.
Sorry, that's not possible!
He didn't care whether the other party was black or white.
It's only somewhat useful now.
When something loses its value, it is no longer considered "one of us".
He was considering whether to wait for the right opportunity to let Danzo make some more use of his remaining value, take away the Konoha F4 and their henchmen in one fell swoop, clear out all the obstacles in Konoha, and then take the blame.
This paves the way for Tsunade's return to assume the throne of the Fifth Hokage.
"We've caught him. That guy is indeed a remnant of the Sky Ninja..."
Shimura Danzō nodded, sighing, "I never expected that guy would possess the Secret Techniques of Body Activation and Body Revival. We almost let him escape!"
"Fortunately, the Second Tsuchikage Mu to be found!"
That's right.
Before Rikuto left.
He once instructed Shimura Danzō to search for a person named "Shinnō" in Konoha.
They demanded that he obtain the Secret Techniques of Body Activation and Body Revival that the other party possessed.
He was deeply impressed; this guy, with these Secret Techniques Forbidden Techniques Eight Gates Released, could open Eight Gates without taking any damage.
Although its power is weak, this technique also has significant flaws.
But its immense value cannot be denied.
"However, we discovered that the Zero-Tails he possessed could be combined with the 'Nue'!"
The Second Tsuchikage Mu, crossed his arms and said, "I believe that in another year or two, the 'Gozu Tennō's' plan will be almost complete!"
"Okay, that's good!"
Rikuto nodded in satisfaction.
This is the value of the existence of "roots".
With a single word, someone will naturally take care of it for you.
Only a fool would do something like doing everything himself.
Like in the original timeline, the future Seventh Naruto Uzumaki even used Shadow Clone, exhausting himself to the point of being unable to care for his family.
· ··Requesting flowers·· ·····
Such a life is meaningless.
That's ridiculous.
"Rikuto, this is the scroll that records Forbidden Techniques such as Body Activation and Body Revival..."
Danzo took out a scroll.
They presented it to the Rikuto with utmost respect.
"Furthermore, after being interrogated Sharingan..."
Aburame Ryoma, standing nearby, adjusted his sunglasses and added, "We've already sent people to raid their base and acquired the Sky Ninja's technology. We're currently researching more efficient flying ninja tools and related Scientific Ninja Tool!"
"Furthermore, those remnants of the Sky Ninja have all had their Chakra and imprisoned..."
"We shouldn't lack test subjects anytime soon!"
Rikuto is quite optimistic about Aburame Ryoma.
Although he is slightly weaker than Danzo, the leader of Root.
0... 0
But that's not a big problem; the most important thing is that he's quite capable.
After all, it wouldn't be difficult for him to cultivate a Kage Level ninja, especially since Aburame Ryoma already possessed the strength of an elite Jonin.
He had already given orders for Danzo to gradually hand over power to Root over the next few years.
Now, Aburame Ryoma has become the undisputed second-in-command of the Root.
In the future, he will be the only suitable candidate to succeed Shimura Danzō.
"Yes, you did a good job!"
With great interest, Danzo flipped through the Scroll of Seals that Rikuto had presented him, nodding slightly and smiling.
He promised Tsunade that he wouldn't become a second Orochimaru.
But surely it wouldn't be a problem to use enemies as experimental subjects for research, like the Second Hokage did?
They used the Sky Ninja as test subjects.
He didn't feel any guilt; after all, they weren't one of his own.
Moreover, the techniques used by the Sky Ninja are quite good.
Once Tsunade, the Fifth Hokage, takes office, we can consider upgrading Konoha's technology.
"By the way, Rikuto, during this operation, we also captured a girl named Amaru, who seems to have Uzumaki Clan blood..."
Knowing that the Rikuto cared more about the descendants of the Uzumaki Clan, or rather, the descendants of the Ōtsutsuki branch, Aburame Ryoma couldn't help but ask, "After interrogation, that guy named Shinnō has been trying to seal the Zero-Tails into her body... Should we keep her?"
"Uzumaki... Amaru?"
Rikuto raised an eyebrow.
He looked at the photos that Aburame Ryoma had handed him.
She was a red-haired girl, about eight or nine years old, with a healthy wheat-colored complexion and radiant sunshine.
"Then leave her to me!" He vaguely remembered the girl; she was quite a pretty young woman.
Since she is a member of the Uzumaki Clan, let's entrust her to Nanako Uzumaki to raise.
Staying in the village allows them to contribute to its development.
Playing a simulation game occasionally is fine.
"Yes..."
... Dry.
Chapter 191 Gold and Silver Brothers, Six Paths Tools?
"Is this the Forbidden Techniques of Body Activation and Body Revival?"
Within the root base.
He was flipping through the Secret Techniques scroll that Danzo had obtained from Shinnō, the leader of the Sky Ninja.
Group: 984177810
Rikuto's eyes gleamed, and he smiled, "To obtain it so effortlessly... truly an eye-opener!"
He had long harbored the idea of developing entirely new Forbidden Techniques based on Creation Rebirth.
Although Creation Rebirth is an S-rank Forbidden Techniques, aside from enabling cells to divide and regenerate after injury, thus accelerating wound healing, it doesn't significantly boost the user's overall combat power.
He wants to develop a system that can be built upon the Yin Seal and the Strength of a Hundred Seal.
Forbidden Techniques that can greatly enhance an individual's strength, speed, and even nerve reaction ability, much like Sage Mode, which can bring about a huge boost.
This Forbidden Techniques of Body Activation and Body Revival was exactly what he needed.
Perhaps, it won't be long before this "090" technique can be turned into reality.
"Prepare a spacious training room for me..."
"Also, bring over a few test subjects from the captured Sky Ninja!"
The Rikuto made arrangements.
Ignoring all that, I prepared to invest in the development of Forbidden Techniques.
"Yes..."
At this time.
Several Root ninjas entered, looking travel-worn.
"Greetings, Rikuto..."
"Danzo, Lord Ryoma, Lord Mu..."
The group bowed to the Rikuto, Danzo, Aburame Ryoma, and the others.
Upon seeing Rikuto, he merely nodded slightly, showing no intention of speaking.
Danzo recognized this small team as the group he had specifically sent to the Land of Lightning to search for the whereabouts of Kinkaku and Ginkaku, on the orders of Rikuto.
Without wasting words, he went straight to the leading Root member and asked, "Have the bodies of Kinkaku and Ginkaku been found?"
"Oh?"
Rikuto had originally planned to go straight to the cultivation room, raised an eyebrow.
Unexpectedly, these people were actually Danzo's men sent out to find the whereabouts of the Gold and Silver Brothers, the missing-nin from the Land of Lightning.
"Yes, we've found it..." The Root ninja leading the team knelt on one knee, his voice filled with excitement. "Moreover, we've also found the Treasured Tools of the Six Paths that the Hidden Kumogakure once kept!"
As he spoke.
He was extremely respectful.
The two scrolls were presented to Danzo.
One document contains the sealed remains of the two brothers, Kinkaku and Ginkaku.
The other document contains the Treasured Tools of the Six Paths found near the two corpses.
"The Treasured Tools of the Six Paths?" The Second Tsuchikage Mu surprise, "The legendary ninja tools left behind by the Sage of Six Paths?"
He is the Second Tsuchikage of Iwagakure.
