Chapter 238: The Mystical Peacock Art
"As expected from a secret technique that revitalizes the flesh, the increase in nervous reaction speed is surprisingly immense!"
After only two practice attempts, the improvement in the flesh and bones was secondary, but the effect on nervous reaction speed was immediate. With the blessing of this technique and continuous improvement, it seemed likely that the Flying Thunder God Technique would soon be usable in real combat. Then, even the strongest Kage-level opponents could be faced.
After depleting most of the chakra reserves that Samehada had so painstakingly accumulated, Sasuke, still unsatisfied, abandoned his practice and finally the Angkor Fortress.
"Summoning Jutsu!"
Before leaving, he not only left a clone to transform the mecha puppet, but also placed Umibozu in this maritime area to protect the fortress and prevent pirate ninjas from leaking its secrets.
After leaving the fortress, he rode Shirotaka at full speed towards the Land of Bears in search of energy for the mecha puppet. Shirotaka, now an adult and returning to his ancestral form, had not only become even more massive but had also significantly increased his speed. In less than half a day, he crossed the entire Fire Kingdom and arrived at the Bear Kingdom.
"Where is the Hidden Star Village?" Sasuke wondered. He knew that it mainly served the Daimyo of the Land of Bears, while Konoha concentrated most of the country's missions. It was surrounded by a large amount of poisonous gas, which acted as a natural barrier. The village could move freely thanks to their mastery of the Mystical Peacock Art, a rare flying ninjutsu.
"Huh! Chakra fluctuations! Ninja!"
He was about to head to the Daimyo when he perceived a small group of ninjas carrying sacks in the forest, similar to human traffickers.
"What abundant chakra!"
The chakra of these ninjas was incredibly violent. Despite their modest strength, their chakra levels were immense. The afro-haired chunin at the back couldn't even perform the body flicker technique. However, their chakra levels far exceeded those of most Konoha jonin.
"As expected from a Star ninja capable of practicing the Peacock Technique," Sasuke said cautiously.
"Why is there fog?"
The Star ninjas, carrying sacks, went through the forest only to discover a mist so dense they couldn't see their hands. However, just as they reacted with surprise, their vision blurred and they all fainted. A simple Mist Flicker ended the battle.
"Samehada, what's wrong with you?"
The always-voracious sword felt as if it had eaten something incredibly spicy, with its mouth full of bubbles. Judging by its emotional fluctuations, the chakra energy of the Star ninjas was delicious, but it was mixed with an unpleasant energy that made it difficult to digest.
"I told you not to be greedy," Sasuke told it, and transmitted food energy to facilitate digestion.
After subduing all the Star ninjas, he unfastened the three sacks. Inside were three children seven or eight years old, all unconscious. Leaving them in the care of his clones, he placed his hands on the enemy captain's head.
"Mind Reading Technique!"
This captain's brain maze was much simpler than Shennong's. He easily obtained a great deal of information, even unearthing the Mystical Peacock Secret Technique. According to the information, these three children were high-quality ninja seedlings bought on the black market to be cultivated.
"Flying Thunder God Jutsu!"
Sasuke teleported the three children to the Land of Waves, temporarily assigning them to the medical team. As for the captured Star ninjas, they were all transported to the dungeons of the Angkor Fortress. Then he mounted his Big White and headed northwest, arriving at his destination in less than ten minutes: a poisonous valley.
