Chapter 109: The Third War Intensifies

Tsunade drank tea quietly in a restaurant near the casino.

Hearing the rumbling coming from the casino, she immediately stood up and sighed.

"That's..."

She couldn't help but be surprised that Yeruashi had lasted this long, after all, he only had a few thousand Ryo with him.

When Yeruashi and Shizune approached her, Tsunade shook her head and said, "Looks like it's time to go to a nearby city, I have a friend there, I can borrow some money for lodging."

"No, no."

Yeruashi chuckled lightly and said, "We're staying here tonight, we're going to the best hotel with hot springs in this city."

Without waiting for Tsunade to answer, Shizune couldn't help but exclaim excitedly, "Tsunade-sama! Yeruashi won all her money back!!!"

"Huh!"

Tsunade exclaimed in shock.

...

The hot spring inn.

Yeruashi sat in a hot spring, his hands were raised above the water, his palms flickered continuously with a pale green glow.

Even when resting in the hot spring, he did not forget to practice the Mystic Palm Technique.

The practice time did not seem too long, but Yeruashi already felt a clear improvement in chakra control, and progress in this aspect also contributes to breaking the bottleneck in Hatake Kenjutsu practice.

After changing the sword and making changes in Hatake Kenjutsu, Yeruashi's progress in this aspect stopped, and he was never able to move on to the second stage.

The core of the first stage of Hatake Kenjutsu is in Chakra Flow, and the second stage is the condensation and compaction of Chakra Flow to form a condensed chakra sheet.

In fact, it bears some resemblance to the Chakra Scalpel of medical ninjutsu.

Both techniques require great chakra control.

If he manages to advance to the second stage of Hatake Kenjutsu, then there will be a great opportunity to improve Chidori, forming a dense sword from the scattered and chaotic lightning element.

Although this will be prevented by the Thunder Gate, when it opens, the chakra goes into an uproar, however, the power of Yeruashi's attack will still increase.

For him, this would be a significant increase in his strength.

The current Yeruashi does not lack speed and chakra, as well as having a self-healing ability comparable to Edo Tensei, so now his power is limited only by the attack aspect.

As soon as Yeruashi's attack power reaches a sufficient level to break through the Third Raikage's perverted defense, he is virtually invincible at the Kage level!

"It shouldn't take long... After mastering the chakra scalpel, he should be able to move on to the second stage of Hatake Kenjutsu without much trouble!"

Yeruashi looked at the pale green glow with a smile, after it finally lost its stability and dissipated, he lowered his hands and looked in the direction of the partition separating the hot springs.

Mmm...

Tsunade and Shizune should be there.

"No need to worry about Tsunade, but Shizune, hmm.... She probably wouldn't dare to look here."

Yeruashi stroked his chin, looking at the wooden fence.

At this moment, Shizune and Tsunade were actually resting on the other side, sensing that Yeruashi was behind the partition, Shizune felt shy and curious.

But unfortunately, Tsunade was nearby, so she didn't dare to do something like that.

....

Five days later.

Yeruashi mastered the Mystic Palm Technique.

Another five days later.

Yeruashi mastered the Chakra Scalpel.

Two days later.

Yeruashi stood in the middle of the clearing, clutching the Kusanagi Sword.

A stream of chakra gushed out, enveloping the blade, after which the chakra began to condense and condense, forming a layer of white radiance, soon a white line of compressed chakra formed on the blade of the sword.

Slowly swinging the blade, Yeruashi could see a bright white arc accompanying the blade and leaving a white trail in the air, as if an artist had swung a brush.

"This is the second stage of Hatake Kenjutsu..."

Yeruashi whispered under his breath and swung his sword hard, a white cut flashed, leaving a deep, narrow cut several meters long on the ground.

At that moment, he did not use the time flow acceleration skill, nor did he open the doors of the Hachimon Tonko.

"As stated in the description of the technique, as long as the ninja manages to master the second stage of Kenjutsu Hatake, he will have strength at least at the level of an ordinary Jounin, and with further development, it is even possible to reach the level of Kage."

Yeruashi suddenly thought that if Kakashi had not received the Sharingan from Obito and focused on practicing Kenjutsu Hatake, at least he would not have become weaker, and maybe even stronger....

During the practice, Yeruashi continued to ask Tsunade about Byakugō no In, observing her amazing progress, he decided not to hide anything more and started to talk about this technique in more detail.

Including the Yin Seal.

Yin Seal is the basis of Byakugō no Yin, because this technique consumes a gigantic amount of chakra, which is impossible to possess under normal circumstances, an ordinary ninja will be exhausted in the blink of an eye.

Yeruashi listened very carefully, but did not practice Yin Seal, because the chakra accumulated in it will not raise the limit of the total chakra volume, but only nourishes it.

It will not bring any benefit to Yeruashi with the ability to reverse the flow of time.

Even the whole technique of Byakugō no In is of little practical use.

Yeruashi was only interested in the "chakra programming" method, which mimics the effect of natural regeneration, much like the regeneration of the Sage Body.

He was sure that this was one of the keys to practicing the Sage Body. After practicing the cell stimulation technique, one must rely on the combination of Byakugō no In and the Sage Mode to fuse the body's cells with Natural Energy, which should lead to the gradual transformation of his body into the Sage Body.

As Yeruashi was about to continue training, from the side suddenly came a voice.

"Yeruashi!"

It was Shizune, her voice sounded nervous and hurried, something that had never happened in the last half a month.

Yeruashi lowered the Kusanagi Sword and looked at Shizune, she quickly approached and was visibly nervous.

"Yeruashi, everything is really bad!"

She took a deep breath and continued, "Just now, a ninja from Konoha approached you and Tsunade and.... said... that Kirigakure, Kumogakure and Iwagakure started to act at the same time and their target is the Fire Country!"

Hearing Shizune's words, Yeruashi sighed helplessly, "Three of the Great Towns are working together? We might have a problem... come on."

As far as he can remember.

In the normal course of events, after Konoha's victory over Sunagakure, the war should have calmed down for a while, then Iwagakure would attack Konoha, and at the same time, Kumogakure would unexpectedly attack Iwagakure, followed by Kumogakure and Kirigakure's attacks on Konoha.

In the end, everything came to a situation where the three Great Peoples attacked the Fire Country, but unlike the current situation, they first seriously hit each other and only then decided to concentrate on Konoha.

Such a development of events was not a big surprise to Yeruashi.

After all, in addition to Minato showing off his incredible skills during the battle on the border of the Wind Country, Yeruashi killed the elder of Sunagakure, Chiyo, So he couldn't help but have an impact on the situation in the ninja world!

"The decisive moment of the Third Ninja World War is approaching."

Yeruashi muttered in his mind.
