Chapter 128 The Wood Release reappears in Konoha; first, control Danzo.
As the saying goes, things will turn into their opposites when they reach their extremes.
It means that when things develop to an extreme, they will turn in the opposite direction.
Gojo Yoru, who has lived two lives, has suppressed his emotions for more than a decade.
If it weren't for the censorship of this cross-dimensional god, which is even more outrageous than the prohibition of alcohol in another dimension, he would have been living a life of luxury long ago.
Now that the cross-dimensional ban has been lifted, Gojo Yoru has finally shown Kushina Uzumaki what it means to have a volcanic eruption of passion.
As a member of the Uzumaki clan who awakened three unique abilities, and also the jinchūriki of the strongest tailed beast, Kushina Uzumaki's regenerative ability is absolutely number one in the ninja world this generation. Throughout the thousand-year history, only Hashirama Senju, who could heal himself without hand seals, and Mito Uzumaki, the previous jinchūriki of the Nine-Tails, could be stronger or equal to Kushina Uzumaki.
Logically speaking, no matter how gifted Gojo Yoru is, or how long he suppresses his abilities, he should still be unable to defeat Uzumaki Kushina, who has amazing recovery ability and is also a tank.
However, physical therapy was both its strength and its weakness.
When Gojo Yoru, who played Zhao Zilong for one night, was about to be exhausted, he only took a bite of Kushina Uzumaki and immediately recovered. He then went back into Cao Cao's camp and went in and out seven times.
The number one tank in the ninja world was actually knocked to the ground by Gojo Yoru, who was only human, and was unable to get up the next day.
Vortex brand physical therapy helps you maintain your masculine confidence.
October 11, Konoha 42.
On this day, neither Tsunade nor anyone else in Konoha saw Gojo Yoru or Uzumaki Kushina.
The barrier around the Gojo family's house remained in place for the entire day.
It wasn't until July 12th, after the second round of the Chunin Exams' wilderness survival mode had ended, that Gojo Yoru appeared at the central tower of the Forest of Death to watch the third exam.
Yes, the third exam, not the preliminary round of the third exam.
If all the students who pass the second exam are Konoha ninjas, or only one or two ninjas from small countries, Konoha will not use the preliminary rounds to select more outstanding genin and then hold a grand official tournament in the central square. Instead, they will let the winners be determined quickly.
Only when genin from major countries come to participate and pass the second round of exams, or when a large number of genin from smaller countries pass the second round of exams, will there be preliminary rounds and official matches.
Both sides need outstanding new generations to better demonstrate their national strength.
Otherwise, there would be no need to hold those grand official tournaments; Konoha doesn't lack the money from ticket sales.
This year's Chunin Exams were essentially a showcase for the elite class who had only graduated in March.
All four classes participated in the Chunin Exams, and all of them passed the second exam.
Only twenty-one candidates passed the second exam.
Yes, there are only seven classes in total, and four of them are elite classes.
The other three squads did not include the Grass Ninja squad that Yahiko and his two companions replaced.
They appear to have been eliminated in the second exam.
But Gojo Yoru knew that they had actually been eliminated on purpose, and now it was time to take action.
The facts were just as Gojo Yoru had imagined.
There is no better time than for the Hokage and the space-time ninja to go to the Forest of Death to watch the battle.
Almost as soon as their chakra appeared in the central tower, Yahiko and the other two began to act.
Despite Gojo Yoru developing spatial awareness and Kushina Uzumaki developing a version of Kagura's Mind's Eye that senses good and evil, the White Zetsu clones no longer dared to rashly enter Konoha.
But before they developed these senses, Miyo had already been thoroughly explored by the White Zetsu clones.
Even Gojo Yoru and Hiruzen Sarutobi didn't understand Konoha's plans as well as White Zetsu.
Guided by White Zetsu, Yahiko and his two companions quickly infiltrated the entrance to the Forbidden Techniques Library.
The forbidden arts library is filled with barrier spells, so even if the mayfly technique can infiltrate it, it will still be discovered once it surfaces.
Stealing forbidden techniques is something that cannot be entrusted to White Zetsu.
Given White Zetsu's combat strength, unless Tobi personally intervenes, he would have been killed by the guards and the Anbu before he could find the forbidden technique he wanted.
To steal the forbidden technique, one must act personally.
"Wood Release: Silent Killing Binding Technique".
Having already used Wood Transformation and Disguise Technique to disguise himself from the inside out, Yahiko was completely unconcerned about the Wood Release being exposed.
Before the two guards could notice him, he used Wood Release from a distance, and vine-like branches sprouted from the ground, quickly binding the two guards.
However, whether it's Tobi, Yahiko, Yamato from the original story, or even Madara Uchiha, none of their Wood Release techniques have the ability to absorb chakra.
Their Wood Release techniques are not as effective as Hashirama Senju's, which can quickly absorb the target's chakra once the target is bound.
Even so, the two guards bound by vines were still unable to fight.
Because these vines contain chakra, this chakra was transformed into sealing techniques, immobilizing their bodies.
The two guards stared wide-eyed in horror at the vines and branches that had wrapped around their bodies.
Unfortunately, because they have been deprived of their ability to speak, they are completely unable to make a sound.
The next second, a figure flashed before their eyes, then a hand landed on their heads, and a cold voice rang in their ears.
"Human Path - Soul Absorption Technique!"
As Nagato withdrew his hand, two semi-transparent spiritual entities, blue and white like chakra, were pulled out from the guard's body and finally seeped into Nagato's palm, disappearing from sight.
Their memories, on the other hand, were like movies and picture books, which Nagato could casually flip through.
"Hurry up, our chakra has alerted the sensory team, and a large number of ANBU will be here soon."
Yahiko came over and urged him on.
The three immediately broke down the door and rushed into the forbidden magic library.
The alarm sounded immediately.
"Khonan Samah, come with me."
Nagato went straight to a bookshelf.
Xiao Nan followed closely behind.
Yahiko, on the other hand, went to the bookshelf, intending to steal a few forbidden techniques that he wanted.
As for taking all the forbidden techniques and information from the forbidden technique library with him, that's simply impossible.
The storage scrolls have a built-in repulsion function, so they cannot be put into other storage scrolls. Even the Mayfly Technique cannot carry so many storage scrolls away at high speed.
Moreover, they all underestimated the reaction speed of the Perception Class and the Dark Division.
Having learned from the example of Hiruko, the Forbidden Arts Vault may appear to have only two guards, but in reality, it is always monitored by the Perception Team and the Barrier Team. There must also be several dark squads nearby that are skilled in assassination, close combat, perception, and tracking, taking turns to guard it in secret.
Before Yahiko could even find the Impure World Reincarnation technique, and even before he could grasp any information about this forbidden technique, he sensed a massive amount of chakra surrounding him.
Yahiko's expression changed instantly. He couldn't find any scrolls of forbidden techniques like the Impure World Reincarnation and Flying Thunder God Technique. Instead, he transformed his arm into a tree branch, grabbed a few scrolls, and instantly appeared beside Konan and Nagato.
With the help of the guard's memories, Nagato and Konan's targets were very accurate, and they had already obtained the Mutual Multiplication Explosive Tags Technique and the Hand Sword Shadow Clone Technique.
"Do you have any other techniques you want?" Yahiko asked. "If not, leave immediately. I'll distract you."
"there is none left."
Konan and Nagato shook their heads.
"I will control the branches to avoid you, and then you can find a chance to leave Konoha."
Yahiko's wood clone mobilized all the chakra borrowed from Tobi, then clapped his hands together and sneered, "Perfect timing to use this technique to greet this strongest ninja village established by wood-style ninjas."
"Wood Release: The Descent of the Sea of Trees!"
Rumble—
A powerful earthquake spread outwards from the Forbidden Arts Library in all directions.
Then, one by one, thick branches broke through the soil.
The branches had barely sprouted from the ground when, as if time had accelerated, they rapidly transformed into towering, verdant trees, crowding each other's growing space and forming a green sea of trees that instantly turned the Forbidden Arts Treasury into ruins and continued to advance outwards.
Even Yahiko, as seen by Konan and Nagato, has transformed into a large tree.
"This is—Wood Release!"
"How is that possible?!"
The Dark Division members who were on their way here, as well as the Perception Squad responsible for monitoring the Forbidden Arts Library, all looked on with disbelief.
As the forest of trees advanced, some of the more astute members of the underground forces immediately sounded the alarm.
As special fireworks burst in the sky, alarms immediately blared throughout the central street.
The ninjas in the heart of Konoha, without bothering to find the source of the earthquake, hurriedly organized the panicked villagers to head to the shelter.
Some ninjas who appeared on the rooftops in a flash saw the advancing wave of trees and their eyes were filled with horror.
"This is the First Hokage's Wood Release!"
"Why is Wood Release appearing in the village? Has someone awakened the First Hokage's Wood Release and gone out of control?"
"This is bad, the range of the technique is too large. Earth Release ninjas, come with me, we can't let the sea of trees continue to spread."
'
'
A large number of ninjas escorted the villagers to escape in the opposite direction of the forest, while some rational ninjas turned into afterimages and flew towards the advancing forest.
The powerful earthquake, along with the ever-increasing number and astonishingly expanding area of trees, alarmed the major ninja clans and the elite forces of Konoha, including the Legendary Sannin.
Orochimaru and the others stared wide-eyed at the sight of such an astonishing technique for the first time.
Before they could join forces to stop the expansion of the forest, they heard a series of delicate shouts.
"Super large jade rasengan!"
Hundreds of densely packed Kushina vortexes transformed into a rain of black afterimages, rushing towards the sea of trees. Then, she raised her hand to create a huge blue and white energy ball, which she pressed against the advancing sea of trees.
A deafening explosion resounded throughout the area.
An astonishing amount of dust and fog enveloped the entire central street of Konoha.
The explosion, even more terrifying than the explosive tag, terrified the fleeing villagers, who screamed repeatedly.
Even the ninjas, who are skilled in sensory perception, don't react much better.
Because in the perception of these ninjas, they seemed to see two tsunamis colliding.
Fortunately, the tsunami did not spread, otherwise they would have been crushed to pieces just from the aftershocks.
After the explosions and earthquakes stopped, the ninjas joined forces to unleash a wide-range Wind Release technique, dispersing the dust and mist that had enveloped the entire central street of Konoha.
Then, countless people's pupils contracted, and they felt an instinctive fear, like ants facing a giant beast.
The central street of Konoha was now a scene of utter devastation.
The iconic Hokage Building, along with the surrounding buildings and even some ninja clan territories that were relatively close to the Hokage Building, have all become ruins in the forest.
The forest, which occupied at least a third of the central street, was reduced to countless fragments, lying on the ground along with the ruins, as if a hurricane had passed through and then been bombarded by artillery shells.
Only a small number of trees stand in the center of Konoha Street, forming a forest covered in dust, as if it had shielded the area from a sandstorm.
Some villagers and ninjas who couldn't escape were also buried in these ruins.
"Hurry and save them!"
A roar suddenly startled the deeply shocked ninjas.
Then, a series of afterimages rushed towards the ruins.
Members of the Inuzuka and Aburame clans use their sense of smell to locate the living and the dead in the ruins.
Kushina Uzumaki, who intervened to stop the sea of trees from engulfing the entire central town of Konoha, used the Adamantine Sealing Chains together with her shadow clones. Countless chains lifted up stones and rescued the target buried in the ruins.
Tsunade summoned a sage, which created clones of herself, and used medical ninjutsu to treat these people.
At the central tower of the Forest of Death, the Chunin Exams, which were only halfway through, had already been terminated. Gojo Yoru and Namikaze Minato used the Flying Thunder God Technique to return to Konoha with the Third Hokage and Kato Dan, among other ace fighters.
Looking at the Konoha Central Street, where large areas of buildings had been reduced to ruins, Hiruzen Sarutobi was filled with shock and rage.
When he realized it was made using Wood Release, his pupils contracted again.
Without the slightest hesitation, he directly asked Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu, "Where is Danzo?"
"I don't know, they probably haven't arrived yet." Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu's expressions were uncertain.
"Yoru, you and Kushina Uzumaki go and take Danzo into custody," Hiruzen Sarutobi said to Yoru Gojo.
Gojoya: "(0-0)?"
Gojo Yoru, who had been inwardly lamenting that Yahiko had gone a bit too far, found herself unusually sympathizing with Lord Danzo.
In recent years, Danzo Shimura has been overwhelmed by the terrifying power of the Hokage lineage. Even the Root organization is far smaller than it was in the original story. Now, he is even suspected by Hiruzen Sarutobi as the prime suspect.
They're preparing to take him into custody without even conducting an investigation.
It's terrible!
Little did he know that it was precisely because Hiruzen Sarutobi understood his childhood best friend that he took him into custody immediately.
Konoha once conducted experiments with Wood Release and recruited a group of volunteers for human experiments, but they all died.
Having sacrificed so many volunteers without achieving any results, Hiruzen Sarutobi immediately canceled the experiment and sealed the Hashirama cells.
Only the higher-ups in Konoha knew about this.
The others had their memories sealed.
Aside from Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu, only Shimura Danzo had the ability and the courage to steal Hashirama's cells and then quietly restart the Wood Release experiment.
This technique was either used intentionally by a Wood Release ninja, or it was caused by a Wood Release ninja losing control.
If Konoha had a Wood Release ninja, Hiruzen Sarutobi was confident he couldn't hide it from his eyes, let alone evade Kushina Uzumaki's Kagura Mind's Eye.
The probability of it getting out of control is much higher!
That's true. Apart from his audacious best friend, Hiruzen Sarutobi couldn't think of anyone else who would dare to conduct Wood Release experiments right under his nose.
"Understood, Hokage-sama."
Gojo Yoru naturally wouldn't expose Konan and Nagato, so he nodded, teleported to find Uzumaki Kushina first, and then went to control Shimura Danzo.
"At night, while I was in the sea of trees, I sensed the chakra I encountered at the entrance of the ninja academy. Do you think it could have been created by one of those three?"
On the way, Kushina Uzumaki reported to Yoru Gojo.
Gojo Yoru was slightly surprised, not expecting Kushina Uzumaki's senses to be so powerful, but he smiled wickedly and said, "I don't know, but with Wood Release appearing, the ninja world shouldn't be boring from now on."
"You really have no sympathy at all." Kushina Uzumaki couldn't help but roll her eyes at Yoru Gojo, then said with a serious expression, "Do you think it's possible that the person behind the Edo Tensei summoned the First Hokage and controlled him to use Wood Release in Konoha?"
"Isn't this more interesting?" Gojo Yoru said with a playful smile. "What's the point of us training hard if we have no opponents?"
But Kushina Uzumaki knew that Yoru Gojo was not such an arrogant person.
Otherwise, they would have been instantly killed by the unsolvable tactics of the mastermind last year.
The peaceful years of the past few years haven't made Gojo Yoru relax. Now that he knows there's a mysterious enemy watching them from the shadows, Gojo Yoru is even less likely to become arrogant.
He must have his reasons for not saying.
Therefore, Kushina Uzumaki didn't ask any more questions. Instead, she used Kagura's Mind's Eye to find Danzo Shimura's location and went with Yoru Gojo to the Root organization's headquarters underground at the Hokage Rock.
Gojo Yoru appeared before Shimura Danzo, a wicked smile on his face, and said, "Lord Danzo, you've been caught. Come with us."
Danzo Shimura: "————"
