The Dragon Vein...
Perhaps it could be called a special collection of chakra energy.
Just like the Tailed Beasts, it does not rely on anything else, it is simply chakra gathered together...
As for how it is actually produced, Uzumaki Jun did not know. But since a natural chakra collection body could form, it meant that extracting chakra from the environment was possible, it might just be more difficult, right?
After all, so many years had passed, and there was still only one Dragon Vein...
Uzumaki Jun quietly felt this massive chakra. Mastering the Dragon Vein was like sealing a Tailed Beast; to some extent, it meant possessing unlimited chakra. But Uzumaki Jun did not know if this unlimited chakra was just so vast it seemed endless, or if it actually cycled and regenerated...
If it was the latter, then there was hope for unlimited clean energy. If it was the former...
No matter how vast, it would eventually be depleted after long term use.
Uzumaki Jun smiled and shook his head...
To some extent, this massive chakra was still a bit useless to him!
He touched his chin, feeling the immense chakra within the Dragon Vein, and muttered, "How about..."
Taking it back for Hiruko and the others to research?
Perhaps the problem that had troubled them for years, 'Extracting Chakra from the Environment', would have a new breakthrough?
Uzumaki Jun slowly moved closer to the Dragon Vein deep within. After all, this was the Dragon Vein that could cause time-space travel!
If handled improperly and taken back, what if it caused Chiro to be separated from his wife and children?
As for Hiruko and Orochimaru...
They were just two single men. Uzumaki Jun did not care. If they disappeared, aside from Tsunade and Jiraiya angrily cursing about where those two had gone off to, and being unable to mooch food and drinks off them, they probably wouldn't bother much.
Really...
Pitiful!
"Huh?" Uzumaki Jun looked at a symbol that suddenly appeared not far away, frowned, and muttered, "A technique seal?"
But it didn't look like one. It seemed a bit like...
The special symbols Komaki had transmitted a while ago??
Uzumaki Jun carefully observed the symbol in front of him. To be honest...
All his power was obtained through external means, so he really didn't understand much about researching this kind of thing!!
"Could this be the reason the Dragon Vein formed?" A thought suddenly occurred to Uzumaki Jun. He narrowed his eyes and stared fixedly at the peculiar symbol. "If it can be deciphered..."
Unlimited clean energy might truly be achievable!
He felt a surge of excitement inside...
He reached out, intending to pry off the stone block engraved with the symbol...
"Rumble!"
Suddenly, a violent tremor...
Just as Uzumaki Jun sensed something was about to happen and was about to activate the Flying Thunder God Technique...
"Roar!"
Followed immediately by a loud roar, and then...
In a moment...
Everything returned to calm, as if nothing had happened. Only...
The Uzumaki Jun who had been standing in the Dragon Vein...
Was gone...
...
"You said what?" Black Zetsu frowned, looking at the White Zetsu main body in front of him, and asked, "That red haired brat disappeared?"
"Yes." The White Zetsu main body nodded and said, "According to the message sent back by the clone, that red haired brat went to the ruins of the Ancient Land of Loulan, and then, for some reason..."
"After a loud tremor, he disappeared."
"You mean?!" Black Zetsu narrowed his eyes and said, "A space-time ninjutsu? He might have been transported to another space-time?"
As a mastermind who had operated in the shadows for a thousand years in the ninja world, although he had recently, in the last ten plus years, started to become more of an errand boy, he was still aware of the sealed Dragon Vein hidden beneath the ruins of the Ancient Land of Loulan.
Moreover, he could also sense the immense space-time chakra there. So...
For all these years, Black Zetsu had not touched it, because who knows where one might be thrown?
You see...
He hadn't seen his mother yet, how could he recklessly jump around?
What if he couldn't see his mother?
So...
Although the chakra was indeed very tempting, for him, Black Zetsu, the third son of the Mother of Chakra, the mastermind behind the scenes in the ninja world, also known as the weakling, it was better not to touch that thing lightly.
You know, direct confrontation...
Really wasn't suitable for a strategist like him!!
Black Zetsu felt a surge of excitement inside. Had the biggest troublemaker in the ninja world just disappeared like that?
Why had he hesitated to act for so long?
Wasn't it precisely because he was afraid of being beaten to death by that red haired brat before he could see his mother?
You know...
His greatest dream was simply to see his mother again with his own eyes, and then...
Call her 'mother' with his own voice!
Wh-wh... why was it so difficult?
Thinking of this, Black Zetsu felt the urge to burst into tears...
He had lurked for a thousand years, finally managed to get the Rinnegan to appear, was only one step away from rescuing his mother, but because he was young and foolish back then, recruited that red haired child into the organization, and as a result...
Madara defected, Tobi defected, and he...
Had also become a rat in the ninja world, hunted by everyone!
Speaking of this, it really was a story full of bitter tears!
If you asked what his biggest regret in the last thousand years was...
He估计 it would be not taking the opportunity to kill that brat when he was still young!!
Otherwise, he would have seen his mother long ago.
"Are you sure he is no longer in the ninja world?" Black Zetsu asked the White Zetsu main body with a serious expression, "This cannot be said carelessly, otherwise, it will harm the organization!"
You know, if that brat was still in the ninja world...
Black Zetsu would rather continue lurking, lurking until that red haired brat died, before going to save his mother. You know...
When it came to longevity...
He, the third son of the Mother of Chakra, was absolutely confident!
"Not yet confirmed!" White Zetsu shook his head and said, "According to the message received, he indeed disappeared from the Dragon Vein."
"But..."
You know, that kid knows space-time ninjutsu...
"In that case..." Black Zetsu's heart jumped, feeling both excited and uneasy. He paced back and forth, and finally...
Gritted his teeth and said, "Dispatch all the White Zetsu to search the entire ninja world."
"No matter what, we can no longer just lurk."
After all, who knows how long it would take to get the Rinnegan next time.
For a devoted child like him who longed for his mother, he really couldn't wait any longer...
"And send White Zetsu to monitor the Dragon Vein's reactions constantly. If there is any abnormality, the message must be sent back immediately."
He fell silent for a moment, then finally sighed...
"If the red haired brat discovers it, then, just..."
"Plant the tree directly!"
He absolutely must not let others discover his hiding place now.
Especially...
That Uzushiogakure Daimyo!!
"Understood!" White Zetsu nodded and said with a serious expression, "I will arrange it properly."
Just as he was about to turn and leave to summon the White Zetsu...
"Come back!" Black Zetsu seemed to remember something. Gnashing his teeth in anger, he said, "There's one more thing..."
White Zetsu turned back, puzzled, and looked at Black Zetsu...
"Find Tobi's hiding place for me!"
That traitor and idiot...
"I want to plant him as a tree on the spot!"
And also ask him who took Uchiha Madara's final Rinnegan...
