Chapter 174 You're afraid she won't die fast enough, aren't you?
*Splat*
Hashirama Senju suddenly appeared in front of Mei Terumi in a flash, and then immediately performed a dogeza (a deep, prostrate kneel).
"Lord Mizukage, for the sake of the ninja world's safety, please sacrifice your village's interests a little, I beg you!"
"..."
Terumi was confused.
Wasn't she just joking with Bai Mo?
You could even call it flirting.
Why did the First Hokage suddenly become a fan of hers?
Mei Terumi glanced at Rin Nohara and Hikaru Uchiha and noticed that they weren't surprised.
It seems they knew this would happen all along.
So this was all planned in advance by Bai Mo?
"Isn't this bullying an honest person?"
Terumi said to Bai Mo with a helpless expression.
The First Hokage even kowtowed to him in public, so what else is there to say?
"Actually, there's something else for you."
Bai Mo took out a blue stone from his person.
"This is...the same necklace as that little girl's?"
Mei Terumi took the stone, feeling a strange familiarity. Then she thought of the conspicuous necklace on Hikaru Uchiha's body that she had just seen.
"That's right, this is a stone I formed by condensing natural energy, which will allow you to enter my unique version of 'Sage Mode'."
Your stone is a bit special. I collected it on the sea surface of the Land of Water after setting sail from the Land of Fire. It contains a lot of natural energy with a specific attribute.
And it is still slowly absorbing it, and as long as it doesn't leave the Water Country region, it should continue for some time.
I don't need to hold it during this time; it will absorb the nutrients automatically, and you can try using it anytime without any problems.
Bai Mo gave an explanation.
"Sage Mode? I really have talent in that area?... Uh, First Hokage, that's enough, you've had enough of that, you can get up now."
Mei Terumi was asking questions earnestly, while the First Hokage was still swooning over her, which gave her a bit of a headache.
"oh."
Upon hearing this, Hashirama Senju acted as if nothing had happened, dusted off his pants, stood up, and said with a regretful expression:
"Sigh, you guys came too fast. If I had known you were coming, I would have used my wood clone to transform into Tobirama's appearance."
The implication is that if he were to transform into Tobirama in front of everyone now, and everyone would know that he had changed, then the transformation and kowtowing would be meaningless.
"Don't worry, after the Fifth Hokage Tsunade's physical experiments, I adjusted the proportions inside, and now there are no problems. You can try it right now if you don't believe me."
Although Bai Mo just said that the stone given to Terumi Mei is still absorbing the natural energy of the Land of Water, it doesn't matter.
The most important thing that affects the body is the natural stellar energy of the sun within the stone.
As long as we ensure the amount of natural stellar energy present, there's no need to worry about problems.
With the suppression of celestial natural energy, ordinary natural energy will not erode one's body and gradually assimilate into the form of a small animal, unlike the common Sage Mode in the ninja world.
"Okay then, how do I use it?"
Mei Terumi was eager to try. She had been reforming the Land of Water based on Bai Mo's advice, but she found it difficult to make any significant improvement in strength.
This applies to both Water Release and Bloodline Limit.
This made Mei Terumi somewhat worried.
After all, Bai Mo had told her from the beginning that Ying was practically the village's highest combat force and had to maintain her combat prowess. That's why she needed to delegate authority to ensure her physical and mental health, as well as sufficient training time.
At the same time, Bai Mo also said that simply working hard to cultivate is useless; you have to find the right direction to achieve twice the result with half the effort.
She's clearly lost her way now.
There was no inspiration for developing bloodline limits.
Bai Mo's stone was a timely help.
This gave her a new direction to strive for in her cultivation.
"Find something to carry with you all the time, and when you need to use it, just let yourself resonate with the stone."
Bai Mo made it sound very simple, but in reality, even a simple resonance involves several layers of selection criteria.
Firstly, all the stones Bai Mo makes for each person are currently custom-made.
Don't assume that only the patterns are different.
Secondly, to resonate with the stone, one must first resonate with Bai Mo, or at least regard Bai Mo as a close friend or idol.
"Looking for something?"
Terumi thought for a moment, took out a lipstick from her waist, blew on it, and then placed the blue stone on it.
The stone was embedded in the lipstick.
"Yuri Ame, are you interested in sparring with me?"
Mei Terumi, holding her lipstick, smiled and extended a challenge to Ringo Ameyuri, who had returned to the team with her Thunder Blade.
"I couldn't ask for more, Lord Mizukage!"
Ringo Yuri looked pleasantly surprised.
She enjoys seeking thrills and challenging strong opponents, so being able to fight the Mizukage would naturally be a wonderful thing for her.
Moreover, judging from the conversation between the Mizukage and the person next to him just now, it seems that the Mizukage is preparing to use some new power.
And she had just obtained the Thunder Blade.
An unknown showdown is even more exciting and anticipated.
"Uh, you think it's too slow for her to die in three years, and you want her to die on the spot, right?"
Seeing how enthusiastic the two were, Bai Mo couldn't bear to interrupt, but he still had to speak up.
If I don't warn you, another member of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen will suffer a brutal defeat at the hands of a player of a lower rank.
What is the purpose of white ink condensing natural energy in stones?
That was to give the people of the ninja world the power to fight against the Otsutsuki clan.
It's not just because natural energy can harm Otsutsuki, but also because of the boost to their "basic attributes".
Just like Sarada in Boruto, her Mangekyou Sharingan ability, Daihei Spirit, has a great mechanism, but due to her lack of strength, she is the kind of person who can be killed at any time.
She doesn't die simply because she's the female lead, the plot doesn't allow it, and the villains don't want to kill her.
The reason Tsunade's fighting power wasn't demonstrated after using the stone was because they were in a hot spring inn at the time, and there was simply no place for Tsunade to practice her skills.
The only one whose combat power we can see right now is Uchiha Hikaru, who just played with the Three-Tails like a yo-yo.
Mei Terumi already possessed Kage-level strength, which she further enhanced using the stone.
Is this a preparation to replicate the death of Juzo Biwa?
"...Then I'll keep it safe. Could you also keep an eye on things and help treat Yuri if she gets hurt by accident?"
After being reminded by Bai Mo, Mei Terumi realized that the power she was about to gain might be beyond her imagination, so she calmed down.
"Alright."
"Alright then..."
Mei Terumi picked up the lipstick, applied it, and the blue gem on it began to glow.
then……
An α pattern flashed across the back of Mei Terumi's hand, then transformed into a golden halo, and a mysterious pattern began to spread up her arm.
However, it soon seemed that some problems were discovered: the golden texture disappeared, and in its place came a bright red texture just like Mei Terumi's hair.
"Is it because we haven't absorbed enough of the ocean's natural energy?"
Bai Mo immediately saw the problem.
However, Mei Terumi's current form should have already given her a qualitative leap in strength.
