Let's See Which One Is More Badass!

Although the process was like a calm lake with a few ripples, the result was still wonderful.

When Miya left the Hokage Building, he received permission to leave the village as he had wished.

The key to Miya's ability to persuade Hiruzen Sarutobi...

Strength, strength, and more strength.

It was only then that Hiruzen Sarutobi realized that despite his young Miya was incredibly strong!

Now that Miya no longer needs his special protection, Hiruzen Sarutobi feels both relieved and worried.

In his view, Miya at this age was too easily swayed by others.

Seven days later.

After leaving Konohagakure, Miya appeared in the Land of Land of Bears. His destination was Hoshigakure, a ninja village located in the Land of Bears.

The leader of Hoshigakure has always referred to himself as "Hoshikage".

Tracing back to its origins, the establishment of Hoshigakure) can be traced back 200 years. The First Hoshikage discovered a "star" that fell from the sky, which is a meteorite, and could be used to cultivate Chakra. Based on this, he created the Mysterious Peacock Method, thus establishing the original prototype of Hoshigakure.

The ninjas of Hoshigakure would train around the meteorite because it had strong radioactivity that reacted intensely to the Chakra within their bodies.

In such situations, most Star Ninja would use a unique secret technique— the Mysterious Peacock Method.

This is a secret technique that allows Chakra to take on various shapes.

Attack, defense, even flight—it's all within their capabilities.

After years of training and experimentation, the higher-ups of Hoshigakure also learned a truth: using meteorites for cultivation has a strong adverse effect on the human body, with extremely serious side effects.

The most direct experience is in the irreversible lifespan.

Miya's current goal is this highly radioactive meteorite; he plans to bring the Nuclear Fission Furnace into contact with it.

Let's see which one is even more awesome!

If Nuclear Fission Furnace could eliminate or suppress the radioactive side effects of meteorites, it could be used to forge weapons with the Chakra Metal in hand.

That single, decisive strike.

Even if I can't kill you with a knife, I can still take your life!

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh.

Outside of Hoshigakure, three figures moved through the stone forest at an extremely fast speed.

These three are the backbone of Hoshigakure: Akahoshi, Yotaka, and Shiso, who have just returned from a mission.

In the future, Akahoshi will conspire with two of his companions to do something big: murder the Third Hoshikage.

After that, Akahoshi became the acting Hoshikage, and Hoshigakure was thrown into turmoil due to the murder of the Third Hoshikage.

"The situation outside is becoming increasingly tense; it seems war is about to break out again."

"Akahoshi, what do you think the Lord Third will do? Is this an opportunity for our Hoshigakure?"

When questioned about the Shiso, Akahoshi's expression turned gloomy in an instant, and a thoughtful look and a fleeting ambition appeared in his eyes.

At this time, Akahoshi had not yet conceived of plotting to kill the Third Hoshikage, but succeeding as the Fourth Hoshikage and developing Hoshikage Village into a powerful force had been his dream for many years.

So when the Shiso asked this question about the war, he was already considering:

"If I were Hoshikage, what would I do?"

After considering for a moment, Akahoshi shook his head slightly and replied:

"I believe that the Lord Third will make the most appropriate choice in this matter."

"But no matter what, what we need to do now is to become as strong as possible so that we can face any changes in the future."

Yotaka, standing to the side, nodded in agreement.

"Akahoshi is right. We'll go back to the village and start training. This time, I'm determined to master the Mysterious Peacock Method."
