Naruto: The Strongest Sage.

In the woods, Qingye was moving at high speed on the top of the bushes. He looked back from time to time to make sure that no one was following him.

He was not at ease with Orochimaru, who was moody and a lunatic who opposed humanity. Once he was targeted by him, Aoba would not be able to sleep well at night.

A whirlwind was wrapped around his body, and Qingye was like an ancient Chinese master of Qinggong. He only needed to lightly tap the leaves with his feet to fly dozens of meters.

It is completely different from ordinary ninjas using chakra to jump on trees.

After running for dozens of miles, Qingye finally felt relieved when he was sure that no one was following him.

After finding a hidden cave and hiding inside and setting up a series of warnings, he sat down on the ground and began to rest.

The entire operation tonight, from manipulating the wind to send a message to Orochimaru, arranged a meeting later.

When the battle started, he led the charge, and then he was fully focused when negotiating with Orochimaru. He was now very tired.

Qingye's original chakra attributes are wind and lightning. He often uses wind and lightning techniques as his trump card. He will not use them easily.

So far, he has only used it once, when facing the Raikage. He used the principle of electromagnetic acceleration to shoot a steel ball.

Unfortunately, the move was not fully developed at that time and was too slow to execute. It gave the Raikage time to react and ultimately only broke his little finger. It had little impact on the Raikage.

However, he was able to use this technique to temporarily intimidate the Raikage and escape from his clutches.

However, this move was not very effective against Orochimaru. This was mainly because Orochimaru's skin-shedding substitution technique was really a bit rogue.

When facing Orochimaru, he actually prepared another trump card, but fortunately it was not used in the end.

Because Aoba's chakra is actually not enough.

After all, this world is about bloodline and origin. A civilian ninja like Kamikawa Aoba, who has no bloodline and no origin, inevitably has the same weakness as all civilian ninjas: too little chakra.

The reason why he used the sword and developed the wind-based ninjutsu was because of this. He also wanted to clap his hands and make whatever he shouted come true.

But I can't do it. I don't have enough chakra to release several large-scale ninjutsu. I can only use the sword to fight with people.

This problem is not unsolvable. In fact, as a time traveler, Qingye knows a lot of ways to solve the chakra problem.

The first choice is the tailed beast. As long as you become a Jinchūriki, you will naturally have no shortage of chakra.

However, Qingye's current fighting power is still too much for him to face Jinchūriki. Therefore, this path is not feasible for the time being.

The second method is the Sage Mode that he is currently practicing. As long as he can be immune to the petrification problem of natural energy, he can absorb a large amount of natural energy and enter the Sage Mode. Natural energy will replace part of the chakra.

In this way, the amount of chakra is increased in disguise. The key is that after adding natural energy, the effects of various ninjutsu are greatly improved. Sage Mode can be said to be an all-round improvement. It is also the main direction of Aoba's current focus.

In addition, there is an alternative method, which is to transplant the primary cells.

The first Hokage, Hashirama Senju, should have a natural sage body. As long as the cells of the other party are transplanted, the body will have some characteristics of a sage body, and chakra will naturally not be lacking. And it is also possible to obtain the bloodline limit of Wood Release. It can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

After all, I've never heard of the first Hokage lacking blue.

But the risk of this method is too high. Among so many experimental questions, only Yamato survived in the end. Aoba doesn't think he is so lucky to survive.

He actually knows how to reduce risk and increase success rate. But he can't use it yet. So, this method can only be a backup plan. He will definitely use it in the future. But it takes a lot of time to prepare.

There are several other feasible options, but they are all unable to meet the conditions for the time being. For example, Tsunade's Yin Seal.

Let’s not talk about whether Tsunade can find it or not. To learn the Yin Seal, in addition to the extremely high control of chakra, it also requires a high level of attainment in the sealing technique.

However, for a civilian ninja like Aoba, the sealing technique is really too far away.

In addition, Qingye actually had an idea about the dragon vein in the Miko Kingdom. He once thought that if he could seal the dragon vein in his body, he would be able to obtain the chakra of the tailed beast level without the threat of the tailed beast's rampage.

Unfortunately, to achieve this, he needed a higher level of sealing skills. In the short term, he had no hope.

Another thing is that if you can find Hoshigaki Kisame and take away his Samehada, you can also make up for your own weaknesses. But in the vast ninja world, where can you find Hoshigaki Kisame?

After Kisame joined Akatsuki, it was easier to find him. But his teammate was Uchiha Itachi. So we could only think about it.

Therefore, after thinking it over again and again, Kamikawa Aoba decided to complete his Sage Mode first, get this trump card, and then slowly plan other directions.

At present, he is strengthening himself through other means. This is the case with the Kusanagi sword he just got.

As a swordsman, after getting the Kusanagi sword, his combat power increased by 30% to 50%.

The main reason is that the Kusanagi sword is not only extremely strong and almost indestructible, but also has excellent chakra conduction properties.

The most important thing is that the sword given by Orochimaru can be extended or shortened at will, which is a swordsman's dream weapon.

After taking a Bingliang Pill and recovering some of his chakra, Qingye had no intention of looking for other teammates.

After all, the current situation where everyone was disconnected from each other was deliberately created by him, just so that he could move freely.

So, after resting for a while, Qingye started to meditate and practice his Sage Mode.

The next morning, Qingye, who had rested well, left the cave. However, he did not return directly to the Land of Fire, but headed in another direction.

The five major countries themselves are actually not adjacent to each other, and there are various small countries and villages in between.

For example, the Land of Taki that we visited before is a small country at the border of the Land of Fire and the Land of Earth.

There are many such small countries on the borders of major countries, such as the Country of Fields, the Country of Hot Springs, and the Country of Grass where Aoba is heading.
