Chapter 170: Shion, Open Your Mouth
"Other worlds?" Konan looked at Alex, uncertain. "Do you mean planets outside the Ninja World? Do the worlds where those stars in the sky are located also have Tailed Beasts?"
The Ninja World didn't have concepts like astronomy or the universe. These were things Alex mentioned casually as interesting trivia during his daily chats with Konan.
"Not those planets." He swayed his paper body. "But worlds almost identical to the Ninja World we are in. Just the time might be different. They are parallel worlds."
Alex explained in detail what a parallel world was, and Konan finally realized, "So that's it. It's actually traveling through the past and future via the Dragon Vein of Roran."
Her eyes lit up instantly. "Does that mean we have a chance to go back to the past and change the fate of Yahiko's death?"
Even if it was a parallel world, if possible, she didn't want the Yahiko in her memory to die according to his original fate, leaving behind a grieving Nagato and another self.
"Probably not." Alex said in a deep voice. "When Naruto traveled back then, it was already the end of the Third Great Ninja War, the time when Minato Namikaze was about to become the Fourth Hokage."
"Is that so..." A trace of trance flashed in Konan's eyes, murmuring, "Yahiko died in the middle to late stages of the Third War. Missed it..."
Since it wasn't possible, she didn't have many regrets. The Yahiko of the main world would be resurrected by her soon. Since the Yahiko of other worlds couldn't be saved, she couldn't force it.
Alex pondered about the Dragon Vein. Based on the anime he watched, the Dragon Vein should have two travel nodes. One was back to the past, around the time Minato Namikaze became the Fourth Hokage. The other was to the future. After all, Boruto and Sasuke in the Boruto era also went back to the time when Naruto graduated from the Ninja Academy. Even if it was through Urashiki Otsutsuki's "Karasuki" artifact.
But understanding the essence of space, he inferred space-time. Beside the current Ninja World timeline, there must exist those two timelines of past and future. The Dragon Vein could go back to the past, so naturally, it could go to the future.
Snatch all the Tailed Beasts and possible Otsutsuki corpses from the two worlds back to feed the God Tree. It would inevitably accelerate the growth of the Chakra Fruit and improve its quality, approaching or reaching the one Kaguya Otsutsuki once ate.
Still a lot to do, huh...
Alex sighed inwardly. From crossing into Naruto until now, the first major stage—using the Chimera Technique to achieve Post-Natal Otsutsuki—was declared accomplished. The follow-up was to seize the Tenseigan on the Moon and snatch the Tailed Beasts of two parallel worlds. The ultimate goal was to let Konan eat a complete Chakra Fruit and advance to Kekkei Mora.
The burden is heavy... but the road is not far...
Although there were many things, with Konan's current strength, it wouldn't take too long.
Alex looked at Konan's pure white pupils and smiled. "Konan, actually the Byakugan can be turned off freely like the Sharingan. Try it."
Perhaps because it was fused post-natally through the Chimera Technique, the Otsutsuki body Konan possessed had slight differences from other Otsutsuki. Different skin color, hair color, no horns, and the Byakugan could be turned off freely. This was quite good; Alex was very satisfied.
Konan nodded. With a thought, the pure white in her pupils faded instantly, turning into the original pale orange. Now, apart from her hair growing longer and her skin being whiter, there wasn't much change.
"Fusion successful, time to go out..."
Under Alex's control, the surrounding black and white walls turned back into sheets of white paper, scattering away. In the living room, the large cube disappeared, revealing Konan and Alex's figures. The fiery red light curtain on the outside was intact.
"Wonder what time it is now..."
Alex removed the "Four Red Yang Formation" synchronously and looked out the window. The moon was bright and stars were few; it was already dark.
Konan was slightly startled. "This fusion took so long? It actually took a day."
She really couldn't feel the passage of time. Alex knew the final fusion would take longer, but he didn't expect it to consume a day.
"Let's go out." He smiled. "That guy Kameda has probably been guarding outside all along."
After Konan advanced to Otsutsuki, her Chakra underwent a qualitative change, and he himself gained great benefits. Chakra volume and the toughness of the paper body were all greatly improved. His strength went a step further. He and Konan truly achieved mutual success and grew together.
Click.
The door pushed open, and Konan walked out of the room.
"Lady Konan." Kameda ran lightly to her front. "You stayed in the room for a day. The food has been kept warm for you. Shall I bring it to you now?"
Konan walked forward. "Send it directly to Shion's room. I'll eat with her."
"Yes." Kameda replied in a low voice. Daring not to ask about the changes in Lady Konan's appearance, he retreated silently again.
Konan walked toward Shion's room. Advancing to Otsutsuki, she could now completely replenish Shion's missing life force.
Shion's room.
Shion, dressed in pure white miko robes, sat by the bed hugging her knees, looking at the silver moon outside the window. Silver light spilled down, making her pale blonde hair shine gold and silver. From the side, the tight miko robes highlighted her amazing waist and hip curves. Hot and fiery. The holy miko carried a devilish temptation.
"Lady Konan..." Shion seemed to think of something, her pretty face blushing. "And that white paper who likes to bully people... will they come tonight..."
Seeming to anticipate, seeming to reminisce. Her eyes under the moonlight seemed to mist over. Her legs began to fidget.
Knock, knock, knock!
The sudden knock on the door startled Shion, who was immersed in some fantasy. She jumped up like a rabbit, straightened her somewhat wrinkled miko skirt, and opened the door. "Lady Konan!"
Seeing the familiar and expected figure, her eyes lit up instantly. Especially when she glimpsed the white paper fluttering beside Konan, a trace of shyness appeared in her eyes. Scenes that made her blush surfaced uncontrollably in her mind.
She hurriedly looked away, noticing Konan's hair, and exclaimed, "Lady Konan, you... your hair... And..." Shion stared at Konan. "Your skin seems even whiter than before..."
"Just some progress in strength." Konan smiled faintly. "What, not inviting me in to sit?"
"Oh, oh!" Shion realized her rudeness and hurriedly invited, "Lady Konan, please come in. What would you like to drink? Juice or light tea?"
"No need." Konan waved her hand. "Kameda will bring food later. Just keep me company for a late-night snack. After eating, I will replenish your life force and completely solve the problem of your short lifespan."
"Thank you very much, Lady Konan!!"
Shion was overjoyed in her heart and bowed deeply. The tight clothes on her chest trembled continuously. The happier and freer she lived in the Sky Fortress, the less she wanted to die early. Tonight, Lady Konan was going to help her solve her physical problem. She could finally let go of the worry she had held all along and stop worrying about gains and losses.
She never doubted whether Lady Konan could do it. Since she said it, it would definitely succeed.
"Lady Konan." Kameda walked over carrying food boxes in both hands, plating the dishes very deftly. In a short while, the table was filled with a dazzling array of dishes. The aroma overflowed, stimulating the appetite.
"Lady Konan, please enjoy." Kameda retreated silently.
Konan picked up chopsticks and looked at Shion. "Eat a little with me."
"Okay." Shion nodded slightly shyly, glancing from time to time at the white paper rising and falling in mid-air. "Lady Konan, let me pour you a cup of herbal tea..."
....
After the meal, Konan put down her teacup. "Shion, let's start."
Shion stood up hurriedly. "Yes, Lady Konan. What should I do?"
Alex floated in front of her, extending two white threads from his paper body.
"Shion, open your mouth quickly. I'll inject life force into you..."
