Naruto started to become stronger by becoming a disciple of Tsunade

"I didn't expect Mizurina to be so amazing!" Looking at Mizurina who was leaving, Chi Ling showed an envious look.

You must learn it yourself.

Chi Ling's fast life thus began.

The slow-moving Wet Bone Forest slugs also changed their perception of the slugs because of the appearance of Chi Ling, causing the toads of Myoboku Mountain and the snakes of Ryuchi Cave to change their perception of the slugs.

It turns out that hard work can really change slugs.

Let’s not talk about Chi Ling’s matter for now.

The Slug Sage directly took over Mizurina's body.

He disappeared from the spot and appeared next to the cold pond in the blink of an eye.

"It seems that I still underestimated the dangers of practicing the Sage Mode!!" Seeing Okamoto Dousuke who had turned half into a slug in the dark pool, the Slug Sage who had occupied Mizurina's body also frowned slightly.

It was originally thought that Dousuke Okamoto, who had made a name for himself in the ninja world, would be able to overcome the mental barrier of Sage Mode.

I didn't expect...

The Sage Mode of the three holy places, Myobokusan, Shikotsu Forest, and Ryuchi Cave, all have one thing in common, which is that they require a firm heart.

You can’t feel the natural energy if your heart is not pure and firm.

Then you will be assimilated by natural energy.

Jiraiya and Naruto both have pure and innocent hearts.

In other words, it can be said that Okamoto Dousuke has not yet firmly established his ninja way.

The ninja's way is not only a goal, but also a kind of self-affirmation.

And fight for it, even sacrifice your life for it.

The mind is a very metaphysical thing in the ninja world.

The most typical example is the opening of the Sharingan, which is actually a spiritual stimulation.

The power of human mind that bursts out in an instant is unmatched.

However, the death of Hinata Tateie made Okamoto Dousuke's heart unable to calm down at all.

No matter how calm Okamoto Dousuke usually appears, when he really faces his inner self, he cannot suppress the repression in his heart.

This is also the main reason why Dousuke Okamoto failed in Sage Mode this time.

thump!

"Mizurina", whose body was possessed by the Slug Great Sage, jumped into the dark pool.

A terrifying natural aura constantly flowed through Mizurina's body.

Normally, slugs wouldn't dare to approach the Yintan.

Because ordinary slugs can't resist the coldness that penetrates into their souls.

Even Mizurina, a slug that has made a name for herself among slugs, doesn't dare to enter.

This is also why, when Mizurina saw Okamoto Dousuke turning into a slug, she did not save him immediately.

Instead, he ran a long way to find the Slug Immortal.

Wow! !

Water splashed everywhere.

"Mizurina" lifted Okamoto Dousuke up on her head and lifted him out of the water.

He lowered his head and gently placed Okamoto Dousuke on the edge of the dark pond.

At this time, Okamoto Dousuke's two legs had begun to fuse together, turning into the shape of a slug's tail.

He gently used his two tentacles to touch Okamoto Dousuke's body.

Then Mizurina closed her eyes.

As Mizurina moved, the abundant natural energy in Okamoto Dousuke's body began to flow into her body along Mizurina's tentacles.

The lower body of Okamoto Dousuke, which had already turned into a slug, was also gradually changing back to its original appearance.

Wait until the natural energy around Okamoto Dousuke is reduced to a certain level.

"Mizurina" stopped what she was doing.

Instead, he waited silently for Okamoto Dousuke to wake up.

"Cough, cough, cough!" Dousuke Okamoto, who was lying flat on the edge of the tan, suddenly started coughing violently as if he was drowning.

"Azusuke!!"

"Azusuke, wake up!~" The ethereal voice of "Mirina" kept reaching Okamoto Dousuke's ears.

"Hmm!" Okamoto Dousuke slowly opened his eyes while calling out.

The first person I saw was Mizurina.

"Mizurina, were you the one who rescued me to the shore?" Okamoto Dousuke asked.

At the beginning, Okamoto Dousuke only felt a chill that penetrated his soul.

Later he no longer felt the cold.

Afterwards, I felt an inexplicable sense of sinking.

At that moment, Okamoto Dousuke felt something was wrong.

But at that time he no longer had any choice.

Although he knew that the situation was not right, there was nothing he could do.

That kind of silent and unconscious immersion is really amazing.

Okamoto Dousuke believed that he had experienced the cruelty of war and his will was strong enough.

But in that sinking feeling of comfort, there was no ability to resist at all.

"Azusuke, how do you feel now?" "Milina" asked Okamoto Zusuke who was still lying beside the pond.

After hearing what "Mizurina" said, Okamoto Dousuke felt it silently.

Although the Sage Mode was not successful.

But Okamoto Dousuke felt that his control over chakra had become more refined.

"I feel a little tired, but everything else is fine!!" After feeling it for a while, Okamoto Dousuke felt a wave of fatigue coming over him.

This is because I expended too much energy when practicing the Sage Mode in the Yin Tan just now.

"It's okay as long as you're okay, Azusuke!"

"This time I underestimated the difficulty of Shura's Sage Mode!!" "Mizurina" looked down at Okamoto Dousuke and said slowly.

At this time, Okamoto Dousuke heard the ethereal voice of "Mizurina" which was different from usual.

He asked uncertainly, "Slug Immortal?"

Although the slug in front of him was Mizurina, Okamoto Dousuke always felt that she was completely different from the usual Mizurina.

"The answer is correct!! It's a pity there is no reward!!" "Mizurina" looked at Okamoto Dousuke with a smile.

"Then it was you, the Immortal, who rescued me just now?"

"Yeah!" Mizurina nodded.

"Okay, then I'll take a break and then practice again!!" said Okamoto Dousuke, taking the clothes from the edge of the pond.

"Azusuke, I don't recommend you to continue practicing!!" Unexpectedly, after hearing what Okamoto Zusuke said, "Mizurina" just shook her head.

He also made it clear that he didn't want Okamoto Dousuke to continue practicing.

"Azusuke, you are confused now! I will not allow you to practice such a dangerous technique under such circumstances!!" "Mizurina" looked at Okamoto Zusuke and said firmly.

"I'll be careful!" Okamoto Dousuke still wanted to argue and struggled for a while.

"It's useless, Azusuke. Your mind is in a mess. You won't have a chance to cultivate into Sage Mode at your current level!"

"Forced training will only cause permanent damage to your body!!" "Mizurina" shook her head, still disagreeing with Okamoto Dousuke's statement.

Because it was their first time practicing, both Okamoto Dousuke and Slug Great Sage were in a state of exploration regarding the practice of the Sage Mode.

However, the Great Sage Slug would never allow Okamoto Dousuke to continue practicing under conditions where it would be impossible for him to succeed.
