Chapter 548: Naruto Extra: Breath of Yang, Naruto and Ginseng
At this time, several days have passed since Naruto completed the Dragon Pulse mission.
In order to gain the power to defeat the leader of the Akatsuki organization, at the suggestion of Fukasaku Sage of Mt. Myoboku, Naruto followed Fukasaku Sage to Mt. Mt. Myoboku to practice the sage mode.
Since Naruto has never learned the ability to sense nature, Naruto's first stage of training is to use toad oil to sense and absorb natural energy.
This was the initial training, but what neither Fukasaku Sennin nor Naruto expected was that Naruto encountered huge difficulties at this stage.
Bang bang! !
Knocking away three shadow clones that were about to turn into frogs, and then knocking away the natural energy of Naruto's body, Fukasaku Sage showed a confused look.
"It shouldn't be. Although this practice is difficult to achieve perfection, little Naruto, you have created three shadow clones, which should actually be several times the effect of practice. Why is the progress so slow?" Fukasaku Sage was a little puzzled. .
After thinking for a moment, it said to Naruto: "Little Naruto, don't create a shadow clone. Practice as you did just now. I'll feel it carefully to see what's going on."
After saying that, Fukasaku Sage sprinkled the toad oil from the waterfall onto Naruto.
Naruto, on the other hand, closed his eyes to sense and absorb the natural energy as he did just now.
Fukasaku Sage's senses were fully activated and he stared at Naruto.
In Fukasaku Sage's perception, a lot of natural energy entered Naruto's body, and a small part of the natural energy entered Naruto's body under the pull of Naruto's breathing with a strange rhythm.
"That's it." Fukasaku Sennin showed an expression of sudden realization.
Naruto unintentionally used two different methods of pulling natural energy, which caused the natural energy to conflict in the body, making the natural energy that was already difficult to control even more difficult to control.
"So what's going on? Is it because I don't have the talent to practice magic?" Naruto couldn't help but ask.
This was a training that Jiraiya had completed before, and Naruto didn't want to lose to the lustful immortal.
The most important thing is that now is a critical moment when strength is needed. Without enough strength, Naruto will not be able to help Jiraiya get revenge.
"No, there's something wrong with your breathing, little Naruto. Don't you think your breathing is a little strange?" Fukasaku Sage explained.
"Breathing? My breathing is normal and healthy." Naruto replied while scratching his hair.
He learned Mu Yue's Breath of Yang, and with the blessing of working hard to practice Dafa with his shadow clone, he had reached the realm of Changzhong before going to Miaomu Mountain to practice immortality.
If Kakashi and the others knew about Naruto's training speed, they would probably be frightened to death, because the time it took for Naruto to practice to normal was less than the time it took them to get started with the breathing method.
"It's not a matter of health or unhealthy, but your breathing is automatically guiding natural energy to perform certain operations, causing conflicts with other natural energies." Fukasaku Sennin explained.
"There is such a thing, but I have never felt natural energy before." Naruto was puzzled.
When Mu Yue taught him Yang Breath, she didn't mention the natural energy immortal mode.
"Grandpa Immortal, are you sure? My breathing has changed because of practicing Yang Breathing. Yang Breathing can strengthen my body, and there is a stronger Yang Breathing Chakra mode behind it."
If possible, Naruto would not want to give up Yang Breathing. On the one hand, this is the ability that Mu Yue taught him. On the other hand, Yang Breathing is indeed a practical secret technique.
After mastering Changzhong, Naruto could clearly feel that his body was much stronger, and the effect of daily exercise became better.
Fukasaku Sage observed Naruto for a while and then said: "It should be because of the toad oil. Toad oil allows you to sense and absorb natural energy.
Your yang breath cannot absorb enough natural energy to affect the body without feeling the natural energy. Toad oil has changed this result. "
"Little Naruto, you'd better return to normal breathing, otherwise your success rate in practicing Sage Mode will become extremely low."
Naruto looked confused and kept thinking in his mind.
"Sage mode is far more powerful than you imagine. Ordinary ninjutsu that only consumes internal chakra will get exhausted quickly if used too much. However, senjutsu chakra is different. Since it can absorb energy from the outside, not only will it not be exhausted, but it will also recover." It’s very fast.” Fukasaku Sennin introduced.
"Little Naruto, you already have powerful chakra, and with the addition of the Nine-Tails, your recovery ability will be stronger than that of an ordinary sage. Successfully practicing sage mode will definitely improve you more than that of the Yang Breath." big."
From the perspective of Fukasaku Sage, Naruto should give up the Breath of the Sun without hesitation. After all, no secret technique can be stronger than the celestial technique.
"Grandpa Sennin, please wait a moment, I will make adjustments immediately." Naruto took a deep breath and made a decision.
He didn't have much time to hesitate, and Naruto wasn't ready to give up on breathing techniques entirely.
Since Yang Breathing would make it more difficult to control natural energy, he would wait until his control ability was stronger before using it at the same time.
When the control ability is not strong, the practice is staggered and the Yang breathing is no longer maintained regularly.
Fukasaku Sage nodded with a smile, Naruto is a good and obedient boy.
As Fukasaku Sennin expected, Naruto's progress suddenly accelerated after he stopped maintaining Yang Breath.
After practicing until night, Fukasaku Sennin took Naruto home for dinner. This was the end of the first day of training.
"Hey, I really want to eat the ramen made by Brother Muyue." Looking at the insect feast on the table, Naruto sighed slightly.
The period of training with Mu Yue was so happy that Naruto felt that he would never forget it in his life.
"Little Naruto, eat quickly. If you don't eat enough, you won't have the strength to practice tomorrow." Fukasaku Sage put a fat green insect into his mouth, chewed it, and then said to Naruto.
Naruto nodded and quickly started eating.
Maybe it was because he was already somewhat accustomed to Miaomushan's recipes, or maybe because he was practicing in sage mode, but this time Naruto actually felt pretty good after eating it.
At night, when Fukasaku Sennin fell asleep, Naruto, who was in the same room as him, quietly slipped out of the room.
"The art of multiple shadow clones!"
Naruto came to a large open space, used the multi-shadow clone technique to separate more than twenty clones, and started practicing Yang Breathing.
Although he only started to learn the breathing method when he and Mu Yue parted ways, Mu Yue had already explained the breathing method to him clearly.
The various characteristics and effects of Yang Breathing, the chakra pattern of breathing methods and the transparent world, what Mu Yue said were all firmly remembered in Naruto's mind.
Originally, Naruto was not good at memory theory, but for some reason, he easily remembered what Mu Yue said and would not forget it.
"According to Brother Mu Yue's lectures, it is the most difficult to penetrate the world, so the goal is to set the Yang Breath Chakra mode. While practicing the Sage mode, master the Yang Breath Chakra mode." Naruto made a decision to practice. Target.
At this moment, he is too eager to become stronger. The threat of the Akatsuki organization, the hatred of the teacher, and the pursuit of Sasuke. Everything he wants to do requires stronger strength.
Time keeps passing by in practice.
Under the Shadow Clone Technique, Naruto endured unimaginable fatigue in exchange for extremely fast progress in Sage Mode.
On a very high rock spur, Naruto sat motionless on a wooden board.
"Are we finally going to succeed?" Feeling the natural energy gathered around Naruto entering Naruto's body smoothly, Fukasaku Sage's expression was a little nervous.
The next second, Fukasaku Sennin saw a scene that surprised him.
Naruto suddenly opened his eyes after condensing his natural energy, with orange eye shadow appearing in the corners of his eyes, and there was no sign of toad transformation anywhere on his body.
"Little Naruto has become a sage who surpassed Jiraiya." Fukasaku sage was very surprised.
The fewer parts of the body that have transformed into toads, the more perfect the sage mode is. Naruto's sage mode is undoubtedly the most ideal state.
"This is the feeling of being one with nature." Naruto scratched his hair and experienced the special features of Sage Mode.
Although he did not see those familiar toads, Naruto determined the location of those toads through the powerful perception of sage mode.
At this time, a bird landed on Naruto's shoulder, causing Naruto, who was maintaining a delicate balance, to lose his balance and fall down.
Naruto thought it would be painful, after all, he fell from such a high rock thorn, but he found that nothing happened to him.
"This is the sage mode. Your body is activated by senjutsu chakra and becomes stronger in every sense." Fukasaku Sage jumped down from the rock thorn and explained with a smile.
"Awesome!" Naruto's eyes lit up.
The Yang Breath Chakra Mode can also strengthen the body to a great extent. If the Yang Breath Chakra Mode can be used together with the Sage Mode, wouldn't his physical skills and combat abilities be greatly enhanced?
"Then next, I'm going to teach you how to fight in sage mode." Fukasaku Sage began a new round of teaching to Naruto.
Since he had to teach the Frog Kumite of Mt. Myoboku, this stage of training still had a lot of practical content. Naruto went crazy and was slapped away by Fukasaku Sage in various ways.
During the battle, Naruto subconsciously started breathing.
In fact, for everyone who has reached Changzhong's breathing method, the breathing method is almost integrated into instinct. Naruto only deliberately restrained it when practicing the sage mode.
Now in actual combat and at a disadvantage, Naruto instinctively restored his Yang Breath without paying attention.
Unlike before, Naruto now has successfully cultivated the perfect Sage Mode, and his ability to absorb and control natural energy is far beyond what he used to be.
Under Naruto's deliberate control, the little bit of natural energy drawn by the breathing method was again screened out for the most part, and in the end only the subtle natural energy that would not affect his sage mode was inhaled into the body.
As Naruto's breathing became more focused, his body grew stronger.
After successfully using Yang Breath and Sage Mode at the same time, Naruto couldn't help but have a look of excitement on his face.
Since Yang Breath can be used in Sage Mode, it is very likely that Yang Breath Chakra Mode can be used simultaneously with Sage Mode.
"Why does Yang's Breathing guide natural energy? If it doesn't absorb it, it doesn't seem to have any impact on Yang's Breathing." Naruto had questions in his mind.
Originally, he was worried that deliberately not absorbing the natural energy guided by Yang Breathing would cause the effect of Yang Breathing to weaken or even disappear. In the end, he found that it had no effect at all, and it was still the same as before.
Naruto who couldn't figure it out simply stopped thinking about it. Anyway, it was a good thing to use them together.
Naruto used Yang Breath to the extreme and once again started a frog kumite sparring session with Fukasaku Sennin.
Fukasaku Sennin was a little unaccustomed to the sudden strength of Naruto, and was caught off guard and was knocked away by Naruto.
"Hey, little Naruto suddenly became stronger." Fukasaku Sennin was a little surprised.
"Hey, Grandpa Sage, you didn't expect that this is a powerful secret technique from another world!" Naruto gave Mu Yue a thumbs up.
He has been practicing with shadow clones for a long time since he obtained the Breath of Yang, and has made considerable progress almost every day.
If Mu Yue is asked to use the identification technique to see Naruto's current proficiency in breathing techniques, he will find that Naruto's proficiency in Yang Breathing has now surpassed Nohara Lin's proficiency in Water Breathing.
At night, Naruto went to a remote place in Mt. Miaomu to train alone as usual.
"I hope it's as I imagined." Naruto began to absorb natural energy and condense Senjutsu chakra with a solemn expression.
While practicing Sage Mode and Yang Breath, Naruto was still perfecting the Wind Release and Rasen Shuriken.
Because the previous use of Rasen Shuriken caused damage to Naruto's chakra meridians, Rasen Shuriken was classified as a forbidden technique by Tsunade and Naruto was prohibited from using it.
In order to prevent others from worrying about stopping them if they knew about it, Naruto could only practice Rasengan Shuriken at night.
Naruto is not pursuing strength and not caring for his body. He is not that stupid. If there is a problem with the chakra meridian system, he will not even be able to be a ninja, let alone protect Konoha and recover Sasuke.
The reason why Naruto restarted the Rasenshuriken training was because now with the blessing of Yang Breath and Sage Mode, his body became stronger and his recovery ability increased.
"And as long as it is successfully thrown, it will not be disturbed by the impact of the Rasen Shuriken."
In Naruto's imagination, a true complete spiral shuriken should be able to be thrown. This would not only cause no damage to the body, but also make it more flexible in battle.
Orange eye shadow appeared in the corners of Naruto's eyes. After entering sage mode, Naruto immediately formed a shadow clone to assist.
A large amount of senjutsu chakra gathered in Naruto's palm. One shadow clone helped Naruto roll the balls and change the shape of the shuriken. The other shadow clone changed the chakra properties of the wind attribute on the Rasengan.
Soon, a high-speed spinning spiral shuriken appeared in Naruto's hand, and the harsh spinning sound was particularly noticeable in this open area.
Fortunately, there were no toads in Miaomu Mountain who had the habit of staying up late, and the place Naruto chose was remote enough that no toads found him.
Naruto did not directly succeed the first time. Although he did throw the ninjutsu, the internal abilities of the thrown ninjutsu lost balance and conflicted with each other before they hit the target and then dissipated.
Naruto didn't pay attention and continued to perfect the Rasen Shuriken. When the sky was slightly bright, many potholes appeared near where Naruto was training.
"We'll continue at night." Naruto took a long breath and quietly returned to the bedroom where he slept.
The Spiral Shuriken still has many problems, either it lacks power or it explodes prematurely.
When Fukasaku Sennin got up, he looked at Naruto who was sleeping and planned to wake him up.
But when he didn't wake up after calling, Fukasaku Sennin gave up and got up alone.
While eating breakfast, Shima Sennin didn't see Naruto and asked:
"Where's little Naruto? If you don't have breakfast, how can you practice later?"
"He hasn't gotten up yet," Fukasaku Sennin explained.
"Then I'll call him." Shima Sennin was about to wake Naruto up.
Fukasaku Sennin shook his head and stretched out his hand to stop Shima Sennin, "Little Jiraiya's death still hit him too hard. He is under great pressure now. He probably didn't sleep well last night, so let him sleep a little longer."
When it was time to practice, Fukasaku Sennin woke Naruto up, and Shima Sennin also heated breakfast.
"Well, good morning, Grandpa Sage." Naruto rubbed his sore eyes.
Although Fukasaku Sennin had let Naruto sleep some extra time, Naruto went to bed too late, so he still didn't get enough sleep.
Naruto forced himself to cheer up and smiled at Fukasaku Sennin.
How could he defeat Naruto just by staying up all night? He was the man who wanted to become Hokage.
"Let's eat first." Fukasaku Sennin led Naruto to the dining table.
Breakfast was still Miaomushan's special cuisine. Naruto ate it all with his eyes closed, trying to eat as quickly as possible to get the nutrients his body needed.
After dinner, it was another day of actual combat in immortal mode.
Naruto's frog kumite and senjutsu became more proficient and smooth.
But for Naruto, training at night is now the highlight.
Although the Wrogakusenjutsu Rasengan and other weapons are very good, they are still inferior to the Rasenshuriken.
"We must succeed today." At night, Naruto started practicing alone again.
Today is his sixth day in Miaomu Mountain.
Before leaving Konoha, Tsunade and Naruto said that if the progress was fast, more information on Pain could be obtained from the interrogation and autopsy in a week.
If everything goes well, maybe tomorrow Konoha will be able to synthesize all the intelligence and figure out Pain's secret, and then gather their forces to deal with the Akatsuki organization.
Naruto wanted to become stronger as soon as possible and participate in it, and personally avenge Jiraiya.
"I hope everything goes well for Mr. Kakashi and the others." Naruto thought of the young Jiraiya he saw through time and space.
According to Kakashi's speculation, they are similar but different worlds.
Even though Naruto may never be able to go to that world again, he sincerely hopes that Namikaze Minato and Jiraiya in that world can live well.
With determination in his heart, Naruto continued to gather the Rasenshuriken again and again.
After failing countless times, a huge explosion sounded, and a top of Miaomu Mountain was directly destroyed.
"Huhu, successful."
The huge consumption caused Naruto to automatically exit the sage mode. He gasped for air and looked ahead with a look of joy on his face.
Immediately, Naruto showed a guilty expression. It was a bit immoral to make such a big movement in the middle of the night.
In order to prevent others from discovering him, Naruto quickly changed places and continued practicing Yang Breathing.
After successfully practicing the sage mode and perfecting the spiral shuriken, if he masters the Yang Breath Chakra mode, his strength will reach a peak.
Naruto divided a large number of shadow clones to speed up training.
Every hour, cancel the shadow clone to sort out the experience and then create a new shadow clone to continue practicing.
Unknowingly, the darkness was gradually dispersed by the sunlight, and the sun slowly rose.
The shadow clone was canceled for the last time, and a large amount of training memories flowed back to Naruto's body. Naruto fell directly to the ground under the huge impact of exhaustion.
Naruto lay on the ground to rest for a minute, then quickly stood up and concentrated on breathing to achieve the Sun Breath Chakra Mode.
"Breath of Yang, all concentrated!"
Naruto focused all his attention on Yang Breath, operating his own breathing to the extreme.
But no matter how much Naruto operated his breathing, he could never enter the Yang Breathing Chakra mode described by Mu Yue.
"Isn't it still a little worse?" Naruto looked at the already lit sky, could only give up practicing and quietly returned to the bedroom to sleep.
Although it is already too late to go to bed now, it is still very different from not sleeping at all.
Still the same as yesterday, Fukasaku Sage waited for training before waking Naruto up for breakfast.
"I'm going to get some fresh ingredients."
Shima Sennin watched Naruto finish his breakfast and walk out the door carrying a small basket.
"I don't know when I can eat Brother Muyue's ramen again." Naruto sighed slightly after looking at some bugs left on the table.
Although I am very grateful to Shima Sennin for cooking, Myobokuyama's recipes are really not suitable for normal humans. Even if they are a little accustomed to the taste, it is still uncomfortable to look at those bugs.
"Continue training." Fukasaku Sage continued to train Naruto.
After practicing for about half an hour, Fukasaku Sage sighed: "Little Naruto, you are already a qualified Sage."
Although Naruto has only practiced for seven days, he has already mastered senjutsu more perfectly than Jiraiya, and he is also proficient in frog kumite and other techniques.
Then Fukasaku Sage and Naruto talked about some of the shortcomings of Sage Mode.
Myobokuyama's sage mode generally only lasts five minutes under normal circumstances, and if the battle is fierce, it will be even shorter.
One Sage mode is basically only enough for Naruto to use Rasenshuriken twice. After using two Rasenshurikens, there will be no Senjutsu chakra.
There are two ways to continue the sage mode, one is the fusion of celestial beings from Miaomu Mountain, and the other is to stand still and absorb natural energy to condense the celestial arts chakra.
In fact, the two methods are essentially the same. The former just allows the sage of Mt. Myoboku to perform fusion and then replace Naruto to condense the senjutsu chakra, thus extending the sage mode.
However, something embarrassing happened to Fukasaku Sage. Because the indigenous Nine-Tails in Naruto's body was not happy, it was unable to fuse with Naruto.
Now everyone is in trouble. If they can't refill their cups, the strength of the immortal mode will suddenly drop a lot.
"Yang Breathing can also guide natural energy into the body. If I use Yang Breathing to absorb natural energy during exercise, wouldn't it solve the problem of not being able to move." An idea flashed in Naruto's mind.
"It sounds like that's the case, but your Yang Breath has its own system. Forcibly rubbing them together will probably not work." Fukasaku Sage shook his head.
Naruto's Yang Breath gave Fukasaku Sage the feeling that it was the prototype of some kind of Sage mode.
It is actually a very dangerous thing to forcibly integrate the breath of Yang into the Miaomu Mountain Sage mode.
If Naruto leaves Mt. Myoboku, Fukasaku Sennin will definitely tell Naruto not to try indiscriminately, lest the natural energy get out of control.
"How will you know the result if you don't try it." Naruto is a man of action and immediately started a new attempt.
In the past, in order to allow Yang Breath to coexist with Sage Mode, Naruto had always deliberately blocked the natural energy guided by Yang Breath from outside his body.
This time, Naruto not only absorbed natural energy, but also tried his best to absorb it, and wanted to use Miaomushan's skills to continue the sage mode.
Bang!
Fukasaku Sennin looked at Naruto who had grown bigger and turned into a frog and decisively swung his stick, breaking up the natural energy in Naruto's body.
"I even said it wouldn't work." Fukasaku Sennin showed a true expression.
How could he, a sage who had lived for more than 800 years, lose to Naruto in understanding the sage mode?
However, Naruto didn't believe in evil. Since the two couldn't be used together, he would try them separately first.
This time Naruto did not enter the sage mode, but simply used Yang Breath, and then absorbed the natural energy guided by Yang Breath with all his strength to join in the maintenance of the breathing method.
Instantly, Naruto felt a different feeling. The power and speed were obviously much stronger than Yang Breath without inhaling natural energy.
When Naruto felt that he was familiar with this state, he tried his previous idea again, but still failed. The natural energy in his body went crazy, and he was hit hard by Fukasaku Sennin.
In the end, Naruto came to the conclusion that the breathing method of inhaling natural energy could not be used at the same time as Sage Mode, at least not for him now.
Naruto had to temporarily give up on the idea of using breathing techniques to charge Mt. Myoboku Sage Mode.
"It's a pity that Grandpa Sennin has limited energy. Even if he stays still, he can only take care of four units at most. Otherwise, he can use the shadow clone training method for two days of trial and error." Naruto secretly thought it was a pity.
Cultivation in immortal mode was too dangerous, which limited his shadow clone's practice.
"That's right, shadow clone!"
An idea flashed in Naruto's mind, and he thought of a great idea.
"Lord Fukasaku, something serious has happened!"
Just as Naruto was testing his new inspiration, a pink toad came up to him.
"Brother Kosuke who was in charge of liaison was killed, and his name has disappeared from the name book." The pink toad said with a sad face.
Both Fukasaku Sage and Naruto looked unhappy. There was no doubt that something had happened in Konoha.
Fukasaku Sage made Naruto ready to fight at any time and arranged everything quickly.
…
On the other side, Konoha Village turned into a huge ruin after eating a shot of Tendo Payne's Super Shinra Tensei. Miraculously, the gate was not damaged.
Hey!
Sakura broke away from the slugs protecting her and stared blankly at the ruins in front of her.
Familiar companions died one by one in front of her eyes, and the village where she grew up was destroyed. At this moment, a tight string in Sakura's heart was completely broken.
Tears rolled uncontrollably in her eyes, and Sakura could no longer control her emotions.
"Naruto, come back quickly!" Sakura fell to her knees weakly and cried.
Kakashi-sensei died and his favorite Sasuke defected. She and Naruto were the only ones left in the former Class 7.
"Please, Naruto!"
At this time, Sakura's sanity has disappeared, and she doesn't feel safe at all.
As if hearing Sakura's cry, a change occurred in the pit created by Super Shinra Tenzheng.
Bang!
Psychic white smoke appears.
