Chapter 108 Ending
"Zero Tail's chakra is gone."
Kakuzu tied up a row of air ninjas with the tentacles of the Earth Wrath and dragged them towards the prison.
They have now occupied the main control room and have cleared out and detained most of the air ninjas.
A living air ninja gets 100,000 ryo, a chuunin gets 1 million ryo, and a few jounins get 3 million ryo. Although the money is not much, it is good that they are close, the amount is large, and the strength is poor. Kakuzu also deducted 20 million in debt.
"do you died?"
Shisui also felt that the powerful sense of oppression that could be felt even inside Anker Bandian disappeared, and subconsciously looked at Lune.
"do not worry about it."
Lu Nie is counting Shen Nong's assets. He doesn't care about the life or death of Zero Tail, or rather, he doesn't care, but he knows that Zero Tail, like the tailed beasts, is immortal!
As long as humans still have a dark side and strong emotions, Zero Tail will be resurrected even if he is killed.
Just like now, Zero Tail still exists on his panel.
[Bengyu Series·Cursed Seal of the Void·Zero Tail
Quality: purple
Name: Zero Tail (larvae)
Converted from the legendary zero-tail transformation.
Description: A unique life created with soul, emotion, chakra, and natural power! Like the tailed beasts, it is a life form that is a special energy aggregation.
Characteristics: ① Immortality.
As long as there are humans alive, as long as there are souls existing, as long as there is the dark side of humanity, Zero Tail will never be able to truly and completely die.
A temporary death is a wake-up call after a deep sleep.
② Targeted evolution
As long as the attack does not exceed Zero Tail's defense and resistance, Zero Tail will undergo targeted evolution in the following period of time, and eventually achieve the ability to be immune to, absorb, and even rebound the current attack.
③Absorption and swallowing
It can feed on chakra, natural forces, dark emotions, and souls. Places with a lot of chakra, dark emotions, and natural forces will naturally attract Zero Tail.
④Soul pollution
It is highly polluting to dead souls, and also has corrosive and highly polluting properties to immortal energy life forms.
⑤Kugi
A skill that takes the abilities of devoured souls and special life forms as one's own. The prerequisite is targeted evolution.
The ability used is not imitation or disguise, but the true strength and soul essence of the devoured person.
When necessary, it can use this ability to disguise itself as the Devourer, making it difficult for any detection method to distinguish the real from the fake.
Note ①: The devoured souls will continue to fight, devour and grow within Zero Tail's body until the strongest individual is chosen to become Zero Tail's consciousness!
Note ②: Zero-tail, who has will and thinking ability, can browse and remember all the secrets of those who were devoured.
Note 3: As long as there is enough food, it can grow rapidly, from a larva to an adult, and acquire more characteristics.
Note 4: The first Hollow in this world, when grown to its ultimate form, can become the cornerstone of the source of the power of the Hollow.
Recognition: 3700/5000, Physical Fitness +30, Chakra +3000
Conclusion: You have taken another firm step on the road of creating the void. The high pollution of the void power has a very high priority on damaging the soul body!
The production progress of Collapse Jade and Void has been greatly increased.
Opposite to Zero Tail is the panel of Bugs.
[Name: Void Worm
Quality: Purple (?)
Characteristics: ① Extremely powerful life, highly adaptable, and highly transformable. ② Devouring.
Skills: Cricket Pupa (Crawling), Eat, Spin, Multiply (Hidden), Needle Storm! Yin Yang Lightning Wind Earth Five Elements Chakra. Devour.
Hollow Powers: Steel Skin, Super-Speed Regeneration
Represents: Hunger
Evolutionary path: Devouring energy, soul, and natural force.
They have a natural appetite and can digest everything they swallow. If they cannot digest it or are too full, they will split into separate bodies to bear all the burden.
Evaluation: How far it can grow depends on the cultivator's skills and feeding.
Conclusion: ① Now it is capable of great tasks and has considerable combat power. But it needs a controller to give orders, otherwise it will only focus its attention and energy on endless eating.
②After devouring Zero Tail, a new power finally gave it a sense of fullness, and it was about to find a suitable and safe place to fall into a deep sleep, where it would shed its body. 】
……
"What about them? What are you going to do with them?"
After suppressing the rebellion of the Sky Ninjas, what remained for Lu Nie and the others to deal with was the huge group of former prisoners who were released from prison.
A large number of them came from various small ninja villages, or wandering ninjas, as well as bandits and ordinary people with certain powers.
Now these people also knew that it was a moment that would decide their lives. After hearing Kakuzu's questions, they all looked at Kane with panicked expressions.
During the time when the Sky Ninjas were suppressed, they had already figured out who was the leader of the team. At this moment, facing Lu Nie, who could decide their future, everyone stood there in fear, waiting for Lu Nie's judgment.
Even the ninjas had little intention of resisting.
It's not that they're unwilling, but their bodies have been continuously drained of chakra for so long that they're almost half-wasted. Even if they squeeze themselves to death, their strength is like that of an ant compared to Kakuzu.
"If they want to leave, let them go." Lu Nie looked at those ragged and skinny people, was silent for a moment, and gave the order.
"Don't you need my help to deal with them? What you did should be kept secret, right?" Kakuzu said softly with a smile on his face that made everyone tremble.
"No need. The current ninja world..." Lu Nie shook his head and did not change his decision. In the current ninja world war, the five major countries cannot remain immune, and other small countries will become war sites. After these people escape, it is hard to say whether they can survive well in the war-torn ninja world.
Kakuzu did not say anything else, obviously understanding what Lunie meant. If these people left Anker Bandian, most of them would probably die, and even if the rest survived, they probably would not be able to cause trouble to Lunie.
Shisui on the side breathed a sigh of relief, although he knew very well that sometimes ninjas, such as the Anbu, would eliminate any possibility of leaking information when performing confidential missions, including but not limited to killing innocent witnesses, etc.
Although Shisui could kill civilians for the sake of mission and orders, he was also happy if he could resolve the issue without killing.
After separating those who wanted to leave and those who chose to stay, Lu Nie said to Shisui: "Cast an illusion on them, so that their memories of today will be confused for a while."
"I understand." Shisui nodded, and took the initiative to lead those who wanted to leave out of the main control room. Although there were a lot of people, most of them were civilians with little power, so a large-scale illusion would not consume much of his energy.
"What about you guys?" Lu Nie's gaze fell on the people who stayed behind.
Nearly half of the people who stayed behind were ninjas of mixed backgrounds, some from the Land of Rain and the Land of Grass, as well as some rebel ninjas and wandering ninjas from other ninja villages.
They understand better than ordinary people how dangerous the current ninja world is without a strong protection!
The four Lunies in front of them were very powerful. They dealt with Shennong, the powerful ninja who made them helpless, and took over the war fortress Ankel Bandian.
In any case, as long as Lu Nie and the other three don't squeeze them to death like Shennong, the probability of them staying and surviving will be greater than if they leave!
Most of them were already extremely weak and needed some time to recuperate before they could regain some strength. If they left, they couldn't even fight a slightly intense battle.
"We are willing to serve you, sir!"
Several Rain Country ninjas standing in the front looked at each other for a few seconds, then took the lead in kneeling on one knee to surrender. Even though they knew that this behavior was equivalent to betrayal, once the village knew about it, they would easily be rewarded or even hunted down.
But they are also very self-aware.
They were just ordinary ninjas from the Land of Rain, and the strongest and highest-ranking one among them was only a Chunin.
They had never been exposed to the secrets of the Rain Village, so naturally they didn't know. After such a long time, they hadn't returned to the village and hadn't sent any news back. They should have been listed as traitors in the Rain Village.
While several Rain Ninjas were talking, they took off their Rain Ninja forehead protectors, picked up a kunai that had fallen from a previous battle with Sky Ninja from the ground next to them, and drew a horizontal line on the forehead protectors.
After the Rain Ninja, other ninjas also followed suit belatedly.
"I leave it to you." Lu Nie turned to Hong Dou and said.
As a frequent visitor to the technical development department, although Hongdou is a bit reckless, she has been influenced by her surroundings, and through words and deeds, she may not be the best and most perfect assistant, but she is also very qualified and worry-free.
Managing a group of defected ninjas was not difficult for Hongdou. Even if they all suddenly attacked with ulterior motives, Hongdou could suppress them.
Lu Nie couldn't wait to go to Shennong's laboratory to take a look.
Compared to the monetary inheritance, the various research and data in the laboratory are undoubtedly what Lu Nie values.
In front of Shennong's laboratory door, Lu Nie used chakra to activate the defensive measures on it. After careful exploration and perception, he quickly analyzed what kind of sealing technique and defensive measures Shennong used on the door.
After spending some time to crack the defense measures on the door, Lu Nie used his clone to walk into Shennong's laboratory. After eliminating the danger in the laboratory, he looked through the experimental data stored by Shennong.
Squeak!
In several transparent boxes, strange creatures made sounds towards Lu Nie. Lu Nie came to the boxes, squatted down and carefully observed the creatures in the boxes.
Little white mouse!
Lu Nie was able to determine what these creatures were originally, even though after being deformed they were very different from the white mice people imagined.
The most restored one is just a gray-white mouse with gray-white hair, a body at least twice as large as an ordinary mouse, bloodshot eyes, and a strong desire to attack.
After testing with instruments, it was found that these mice had all received an injection of dark chakra. According to the test results, the gray-white mouse whose body and appearance were not excessively deformed was the most successful experimental result in Shennong Laboratory.
But the other few, which were misshapen except for some limbs that still looked like little white mice, were not useless. At least they could allow Lu Nie to reversely infer Shennong's thoughts, ideas and experimental process at that time.
Judging from the experimental data, Shennong did not have perfect and thorough control over the power of Zero Tail. He only had a preliminary grasp of the dark chakra and was able to use it like chakras of other attributes.
And this use is dangerous.
The erosion of the body and the influence of the mind by the dark chakra are inevitable. To absorb the dark chakra into the body and refine it without taking any measures requires a strong body and extremely high control over the body.
Shennong obviously did this.
The forbidden medical technique he developed, Flesh Activation, can activate one's own body cells and thereby enhance various aspects of the body's abilities.
Another forbidden medical technique, physical regeneration, gave him the ability to control every organ and cell in his body. Even if his body was torn into pieces, he could still be reassembled and resurrected.
High recovery ability, strong vitality, and difficult to kill, most of the medical forbidden techniques known to us have these characteristics.
Shennong used the two forbidden medical techniques as a basis, mixed with dark chakra, and could even reverse cells and rejuvenate himself. When injured, he could transform damaged cells and limbs into regenerated reinforcements.
In other words, it is a recovery ability similar to the super-speed regeneration of the Hollow. The body formed by the two major medical forbidden techniques and dark chakra is the ultimate body in Shennong's cognition.
In terms of maintaining youth and immortality, Shennong went further than Orochimaru and Tsunade. At least his research data and the data he left behind on developing forbidden medical techniques have benefited Lu Nie a lot.
In terms of exploring the potential and limits of the body, Shennong has done what a non-cheating ninja can do. His research on the spirit and soul is a little worse than his achievements in the body, but in many aspects, it is refreshing to Lu Nie.
Even Orochimaru would feel as if he had found a treasure when seeing this data.
After sealing the knowledge backup in his hand into a blank scroll, Lu Nie formed a hand seal and summoned a white snake as long as a person.
This is the snake used by Kagome and Orochimaru to communicate. No matter what message Orochimaru wants to tell him, or he wants to convey some message to Orochimaru, this white snake, as a transit station, can quickly convey the message to the other party.
Under the white snake's smart gaze, Lu Nie handed over the sealed scroll, watched the white snake open its mouth, hold the scroll, then raised its head and swallowed the scroll into its stomach.
After doing all this, the white snake saw that Lu Nie had no further orders, so he took the initiative to turn into a ball of white smoke and returned to Longdi Cave.
After backing up and collecting the data, Lunie also had to consider the issue of Ankel Bandian and the garrison personnel.
He needed an experimental base and manpower of his own, and Anker Bandian was undoubtedly the best choice for the time being.
As for manpower, the remaining ninjas and civilians could be used. It was just necessary to improve their strength so that they could at least help him guard this movable fortress and have the strength to do things for him when he needed them.
Helping these people improve their strength is not a big problem for Lunie.
