'This… this is…'
Hidezawa sensed the surging chakra within his body with surprise. He found that the situation seemed to be a bit different from what he had expected.
It wasn't that the chakra in his body was uncontrollable; the LV7 Chakra level provided extraordinary control.
Nor was it that his chakra was difficult to infuse; rather, everything seemed to be progressing too smoothly.
'Is this the power of the formula?'
Hidezawa's fusion was entirely carried out according to the formula he had comprehended from his [Wood Style Experience].
But based on his original, somewhat poor math grades, he thought that sometimes calculations could be very troublesome even when applying a formula.
After all, anyone can give you the illusion of being correct, but math won't, because if you don't know math, you just don't know it.
But now, he found himself a bit too reliant on experience. He realized that after he subconsciously applied chakra according to the formula, everything went so smoothly.
'This is a good thing. Fusing other kekkei genkais and even Kekkei Tōta will be easier in the future, but…'
But for now, such smoothness actually left Hidezawa somewhat dumbfounded.
The fusion speed was too fast, which meant the stage of massive chakra consumption had already arrived.
'This rate of consumption is truly incredible…'
Fine beads of sweat appeared between Hidezawa's brows. The three attribute chakras fused together, and he needed to maintain this state to let them completely solidify and then spread throughout his body.
This required a continuous supply of chakra. Now he completely understood why there were so few kekkei genkai ninjas and why new kekkei genkai families rarely appeared.
'The required amount of chakra is simply too much.'
Hidezawa used his own chakra to sustain the fusion's consumption, and his gaze was fixed on the seal beside him.
He had a feeling that perhaps the chakra required for the fusion of Kekkei Tōta was the limit for normal ninjas.
Over thousands of years, it seemed that only one Kekkei Tōta, Particle-style, had appeared openly in the Ninja World.
Of course, Senju Hashirama counts as one, but it's truly difficult to call that guy a 'normal ninja'.
'As for further advancement, I'm sure it will require assistance from external forces.'
Hidezawa's gaze remained fixed on the Dragon Veins' seal. He saw no issue with directly relying on external forces for his fusion.
He was only LV7, which normally translated to the level of an elite-jōnin. He didn't think he could compare to the old and cunning Onoki, or the non-human Senju Hashirama, at his current stage.
Moreover, relying on external factors in advance could be considered a form of early adaptation, preparing himself for further progress in the future.
Drip—!
Drip—!
More and more sweat beaded on Hidezawa's forehead, beginning to drip onto the ground. The chakra within his body was also nearly depleted.
"Damn it, what is he doing?"
Kabuto, who was nearby, had been observing Hidezawa's condition. He noticed that Hidezawa's physical state seemed to be deteriorating.
Especially his chakra, which was circulating and depleting wildly. He simply had no idea what this guy was doing.
However, he didn't dare to rashly disturb him, concluding that Hidezawa was likely doing something important again.
But now the breach in the seal was growing larger and larger, and the pressure from the dense chakra was becoming stronger and stronger. How could he not be worried?
Roar—!
Suddenly, a roar, like an angry growl, echoed throughout the entire tower.
The next moment, violent chakra, accompanied by deafening sounds, continuously roared.
The terrifying chakra vibrated incessantly, and in an instant, the top floor of their tower was shattered.
The falling rubble, influenced by the roaring chakra, transformed into fine sand, like a sandstorm, sweeping through the entire tower.
"This…"
Kabuto dodged the sweeping rubble while looking at Hidezawa, who was still sitting in place.
Turning his head, he realized through the damaged tower that the ancient city of Rōran had also begun to stir, which made him immediately understand that he couldn't stay any longer.
"What a troublesome fellow."
Kabuto gritted his teeth. He had no intention of abandoning Hidezawa. Braving the sky-high yellow sand and rubble, he struggled to walk towards Hidezawa's position.
However, just at this moment, Hidezawa suddenly opened his eyes.
"Now is the time…"
Suddenly, he raised his hand, and because of the close distance, his hand even directly plunged into the Dragon Veins' chakra stream.
Buzz—!!
Amidst the roar, its violent chakra was actually directly pulled by him.
The Dragon Veins let out a roar, but Hidezawa successfully controlled this chakra to surge into his body, then frantically rushed into the chakra he was currently infusing.
'I really have to thank Namikaze Minato…'
Feeling all of this, Hidezawa couldn't help but let out a sigh of emotion.
The opening he had made in the seal, the interlocking seals, naturally sought to repair themselves, which would consume the Dragon Veins' chakra.
At the same time, for the Dragon Veins to break through the seal, it had to wildly contend with the remaining seals. In this continuous back and forth, the Dragon Veins was already being significantly depleted.
Moreover, Hidezawa wasn't stupid. The opening he had created wasn't as large as it seemed, so the Dragon Veins couldn't all squeeze out at once.
This gave him the opportunity for sustainable overfishing; he could continuously absorb the exhausted Dragon Veins' chakra that was squeezing out from within the seal.
Boom—!!!
With this massive and pure chakra infusion, the fusion of Hidezawa's three elements became even faster.
Amidst that continuous fusion, the power within his body constantly became solid, resilient, and merged into one, indistinguishable from each other.
At this moment, a white light emanated from Hidezawa's body, and an inexplicable chakra also radiated from him.
"What… what is happening?"
Kabuto looked at the scene before him in astonishment. Although he still needed to pay attention to the constantly approaching crowd outside the tower, Hidezawa's current state was too strange.
As this chakra grew stronger and more solidified, a violent roar suddenly came from above his head.
Kabuto immediately covered his ears. The roar made his eardrums ache, and he also felt a violent tremor in the ground beneath his feet.
But when he looked closely, his expression instantly froze.
He saw an ancient, gnarled tree instantly rise from the ground. It encircled Hidezawa, constantly extending and growing.
Soon, this large tree burst through the damaged top of the tower, and its lush, dense branches completely covered the tower.
Most importantly, from this large tree, Kabuto also felt a powerful chakra brewing.
Watching these scenes unfold, Kabuto was completely stunned. All that was left in his mouth was a constantly repeated phrase.
"How is this possible… How is this possible?!"
