"This feeling… it's not bad."
Shinji felt pretty good about his current state, although he hadn't actually compared it to anything.
With a thought, a bit of Chakra rose from the outer layer of his skin. When it reached a critical point, it dripped onto the ground like water. As it landed, small blades of grass instantly sprouted.
Shinji squatted down to examine it closely. It wasn't that he knew Wood Release. Rather, in this Yang Release Chakra Mode, his Chakra was so abundant that it was overflowing.
Moreover, as he used this mode, some of its core abilities also appeared in his mind.
"Mimi, to the Ancestral Land."
As Shinji's voice fell, he instantly vanished from the spot, taking a bewildered Mimi with him.
"Meow?!"
Upon arriving at the Ancestral Land, Mimi's fur instantly bristled. Shinji had just directly pierced through space, forcibly intruding into his ancestral land.
Keep in mind, Mimi's ancestral land was imbued with energy, absolutely not allowing such a crude entry.
"Shinji, how did you do that?" Mimi's face was filled with disbelief as he asked Shinji.
"Anchor point."
Shinji looked around. In this state, his perception of Mimi's Ancestral Land felt different.
"Anchor point?" Mimi blinked, a little confused.
Shinji extended a hand and pointed to the shrine in the center of the Ancestral Land, saying with a smile, "When I first came in, I deeply sensed this place. And with your contract, I could sense it even more clearly."
As Shinji spoke, he couldn't help but marvel at the power of this mode, which allowed him to use Flying Thunder God in an unconventional way. It was just very limited. Of it weren't for Mimi's contract, he wouldn't have been able to do it.
"Freak!"
Mimi clicked his tongue, such a method was unheard of to him, yet Shinji had done it so easily.
Shinji gave Mimi an exasperated glance, taking it as a compliment. "Let's go, let's test some moves in this state."
Although his Yang Chakra was still in the Extraordinary + state, Shinji could clearly sense that this mode would disappear in just a few minutes due to the consumption of Yang Chakra.
His Extraordinary+ level Yang Chakra only allowed him to activate this mode for less than five minutes. Afterward, he would only be able to activate it again once his Yang Chakra was replenished.
Simply put, Yang Chakra was currently like a mana bar. And activating it once would drain that mana bar.
"Again?"
Mimi was a little reluctant. After all, he felt he couldn't withstand Shinji in his current state.
"What are you afraid of? Don't you want to learn? I'll teach you after we've tested it."
Shinji finished speaking and took Mimi to the depths of the Ancestral Land.
"Attack me!"
As soon as they landed, Shinji called for Mimi to act.
Mimi gritted his teeth, his body instantly erupting as he charged towards Shinji.
Boom!
A tremendous sound rang out. Shinji, standing still, did not resist. He was sent flying backward by Mimi's impact, heading towards the dense forest behind him.
After flying over a hundred meters and knocking down countless trees, Shinji finally stopped.
"Pfft—"
Shinji, slumped on the ground, spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Shinji!"
Mimi quickly flew over. He hadn't expected that Shinji wouldn't even dodge.
Mimi, having just landed, stared at Shinji on the ground and couldn't help but be stunned.
Shinji's shattered shoulder blade and the huge wound on his chest were healing at a terrifying speed. Even the damaged outer layer of energy clothing 'healed' and grew like biological tissue.
"Cough, I almost thought I was a goner."
Shinji stumbled to his feet, watching the terrifying speed of regeneration on his body.
"If you want to die, don't drag me into it!" Mimi roared at Shinji, furious.
Anyone could kill Shinji, but it couldn't be him, otherwise he himself would disappear from this world.
"Alright, even if you're concerned about me, don't say it so awkwardly." Shinji slowly walked over and picked up the reluctant Mimi.
"I didn't expect your attack power to be so strong in your cat state. It seems you've grown not just in size, but also in strength."
Shinji's teasing expression made Mimi, whose neck of fate was being held, very displeased.
But thinking of Shinji's appearance just now, he still couldn't help but ask curiously, "Your recovery power is even more monstrous?"
"Ah, only in this state." Shinji nodded.
While it was powerful, it couldn't be easily attempted. If his Yang Chakra didn't have the 'Eternal' attribute, that recovery just now would have been overdrawing his fundamental life force. Excessive use would lead to irreversible aging and depletion of life force.
"You're not just a freak, you're a madman!"
Mimi, who didn't know Shinji could exploit bugs, looked at him with the gaze one would give a lunatic.
Shinji didn't explain, this was something that couldn't be clearly articulated.
"Let's try the last move, my Chakra is getting a bit low." Arriving at the highest point of the Ancestral Land, Shinji said after putting Mimi down.
"What are you going to do?!" Mimi hastily asked, fearing Shinji would do something unimaginable again.
"I'm going to test an attack in this mode. If we were in Konoha, the entire Forest of Death would probably be gone."
As Shinji spoke, he raised his hands and condensed highly compressed spheres of life energy.
"Hey! Don't blow up my ancestral land!" Mimi quickly yelled to stop him.
"What are you thinking?"
Shinji said calmly, "I just want to borrow your Ancestral Land so that no one can detect who launched the attack."
As he spoke, Shinji raised both hands, and two energy spheres, like nascent Tailed Beast Balls, instantly flew out of the Ancestral Land.
On the sea, the normally calm ocean suddenly erupted with giant waves hundreds of meters high, then the sea surface looked as if it had been combed with a middle part.
After deeply plowing a trench, the two energy spheres headed towards a coastline.
Rumble—
Like a doomsday earthquake scene, the ground of the coastline rapidly collapsed, and seawater instantly poured in.
In just a few minutes, this coastline disappeared under the erosion of the seawater. And not far away, a huge stone slab with the Uzumaki clan emblem could be seen lying there in the distance.
The Three Sage Regions, all at the same time, looked up at the sky.
On Mount Myōboku, the Great Toad Sage Gamamaru was looking up, his cloudy eyes lost in thought.
"Great Toad Sage! What happened?" Fukasaku asked.
Just now, the entire Mount Myōboku had vibrated, something that had never happened before.
"I don't know either. I can't see or hear, the future has become a fog. Go call Jiraiya over."
