I will use the ninja world to aid my cultivation of immortality.

Seeing Hinata Rinka and Hinata Yuika massaging Naraku's shoulders, Garuda was not about to be outmatched.

Naraku had naturally taken note of the three women vying for his favor.

For him, this was a minor matter.

Competition is actually a good thing as long as it's kept within the red lines.

"It's time to collect a new batch of medicinal herbs."

While enjoying a massage from the three women, Naraku did not forget his business.

Whether it's Tiger Wolf Pill or True Essence Pill.

The stored medicinal materials have been completely refined.

He had already used up all of the True Essence Pills.

With the help of the True Essence Pill, he is now one step closer to the eighth level of Qi Refining.

However, once he ran out of True Essence Pills, his cultivation returned to its original state.

Next, whether it's to continue using the True Essence Pill to accelerate cultivation or to maintain the supply of Tiger Wolf Pills, the collection of medicinal herbs needs to be expedited.

At a single command, the entire Star Kingdom began to operate accordingly.

Upon Naraku's order, the mission hall immediately added new tasks related to collecting medicinal herbs.

This prompted the ninjas of the Land of Stars to take action and travel to various parts of the ninja world to carry out their mission.

The medicinal materials needed for Tiger Wolf Pill and True Essence Pill are continuously arriving.

To this end, Naraku specifically arranged for his true qi shadow clones to be responsible for activating the [Purple Gold Cauldron] to refine pills.

As for himself.

He was inspecting the progress of the supernatural power cultivation.

At this moment, there is a volcano.

Naraku came using "space jump".

As he looked at the True Qi Shadow Clone figures sitting cross-legged near the crater, he saw that they were drawing upon strands of fire elemental power invisible to the naked eye from the magma within the volcano.

Chapter 261 New Konoha

"At the current pace, it won't be long before I've mastered the basics of the 'Blazing Sun Technique'." Naraku's eyes showed satisfaction.

As he progressed through the minor completion stage of the "Heavenly One Divine Water," he, as before, paused his cultivation of the "Heavenly One Divine Water" and instead began practicing the "Blazing Sun Great Art," the final technique of the Five Elements.

At this point, three of the Five Elements techniques had reached a minor level of mastery.

The phrase "seeing enemies in every bush and tree" is also approaching a minor success.

Once one has mastered the "Blazing Sun Technique," the unity of the Five Elements will not be far off.

When the five elements are united, nothing can penetrate its power, and nothing can withstand its destruction!

This is the general outline of the Five Elements theory.

Aside from his cultivation level, Naraku most looked forward to the day when the five elements were united.

The country of tea.

This country is surrounded by the sea on three sides, and the remaining direction borders the former Land of Fire, now the Land of Water.

At the same time, the Land of Tea is also the country to which Shinkonoha Village belongs.

"You've already mastered Sage Mode?"

Inside the Hokage Building in New Konoha, Tsunade, now the Hokage, looked at Minato Namikaze across the way with delight.

"It's only the beginning. We're only doing this thanks to the Great Toad Sage's guidance; otherwise, it would have taken much longer," Minato Namikaze waved his hands repeatedly.

Immortal mode.

Before you learn it, you may not know what it means. Only when you truly learn it can you understand the power of this force and the difficulty of learning it.

Minato Namikaze believed that he was quite capable.

Even when he was learning the Flying Thunder God Technique, he did not encounter any major obstacles.

However, the Sage Mode is different.

Without the guidance of the Great Toad Sage, not only would it have taken him much longer to learn, but he would also have had a hard time overcoming the dangers involved.

"Lady Tsunade, I'm going to try to rescue Kushina next." After exchanging pleasantries, Minato Namikaze looked at Tsunade with a serious expression.

Tsunade, who was pleasantly surprised that Minato Namikaze had learned Sage Mode, immediately frowned.

"Minato, I know you're worried about Kushina, but with our current strength, rescuing her from the Land of Stars is far too difficult," Tsunade sighed.

Naraku did not restrict Kushina's activities too much, which meant that Kushina was not a secret in the Land of Stars.

Especially Tsunade.

She was sent to Mount Myōboku for treatment after Kakashi contacted her through the Flying Thunder God kunai.

Later, as she recovered, she led her remaining subordinates to establish Shinkonoha in the Land of Tea.

Whether it was to develop the new Konoha or to win over Minato Namikaze, she actively sought out Kushina's whereabouts.

Ultimately, she found Kushina in the Land of Stars.

Even in the information gathered, Kushina's behavior was quite unusual.

They didn't seem to be restrained by the Star Kingdom at all; rather, they seemed to have joined the Star Kingdom voluntarily.

Tsunade had discussed this situation with Minato Namikaze.

However, both Minato Namikaze and Kushina believed that Kushina did not genuinely join the Land of Stars, but was controlled by Naraku through some secret means.

Tsunade was naturally willing to rescue Kushina.

After all, he was the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki.

If Kushina is rescued, her side will undoubtedly gain another powerful general and have a greater chance to regain its former glory.

Just thinking about the current strength of the Star Kingdom...

Even without considering Naraku, Tsunade felt utterly powerless.

Regardless of whether Kushina is under control or not, taking her away from the Land of Stars would undoubtedly be an extremely difficult task.

"How about this? Let's conserve our strength and act when we have a better chance of success. We also need to find out more about Kushina's situation," Tsunade suggested, seeing Minato's gloomy expression.

Shinmokuha is now in dire need of rebuilding.

It might even provoke another round of attacks from the five major powers.

Therefore, she was afraid that Minato Namikaze might impulsively go to the Land of Stars.

If that's the case, the chances of losing your life are definitely much greater.

"Don't worry, Lady Tsunade, I won't do anything reckless. You're right, even if I learn Sage Mode, with my current strength, the chances of rescuing Kushina from the Land of Stars are still too small." Minato Namikaze took a deep breath and suppressed the impulse in his heart.

Seeing that Minato Namikaze remained calm, Tsunade was immediately relieved: "Don't worry, I will definitely help you rescue Kushina. During this time, besides developing the village, I have actually been training in the Eight Gates, and I can now open the sixth gate."

"Lady Tsunade is practicing the Eight Gates?" Minato Namikaze looked surprised.

Tsunade had naturally read the complete Book of Sealing.

Even after the establishment of New Konoha, in order to train subordinates, they specially compiled many of the inheritances of the Book of Sealing.

Minato Namikaze was among those who gained access to the complete Book of Seals.

"Yes, the Eight Gates are very compatible with me. If I can master the eighth gate, I might even be able to fight Naraku," Tsunade said in a deep voice.

The Book of Seals contains numerous techniques.

But when it comes to the most outstanding combat ability, it is undoubtedly the Eight Gates Formation.

And just as Tsunade said.

Her natural skill in physical combat, combined with the Senju clan's naturally strong physique, made her a perfect fit for the Eight Gates.

This can be proven by the fact that Tsunade mastered the sixth gate in just six months.

“But if we open the eighth gate,” Minato Namikaze frowned.

"It's just death. As long as it can restore the village's glory, what does it matter if I sacrifice myself?" Tsunade said calmly.

Tsunade appeared calm and collected, but the conviction and resolve she revealed undoubtedly earned Minato Namikaze's admiration.

After chatting for a while, Minato Namikaze returned to Mount Myōboku to continue his training.

"What a pity."

Gamamaru naturally learned of Minato Namikaze's return immediately.

Gamamaru felt a pang of regret as he sensed Minato Namikaze's ongoing training.

With Minato Namikaze's talent, plus Kushina Uzumaki, they could definitely give birth to the most outstanding Ashura reincarnation.

Unfortunately, because they waited for a long time without getting a result, the reincarnation of Asura has been reassigned to another option.
