Chapter 11 Are you going to kill me?
It certainly looks evil.
Qingwu was also helpless; this was very abnormal, okay?
Is this a unique gathering method exclusive to the Deadwood Guardians?
After you're done, try gathering with a centaur!
With these thoughts in mind, Qingwu stopped the withered tree guardians that were dismantling the second large tree.
[Received: Wood*9]
[Bonus: Gain 2 Wood]
Okay, this tree is a bit smaller than the previous one.
However, this conversion involves rounding up or down, which is interesting!
"receive!"
Qingwu couldn't wait for the withered tree guard to come back on its own, and as a result... the command failed.
The system message indicates that the distance is too far...
"I'm almost fully recovered, so I'll stop here." Qingwu called out, "Wait for me."
Run forward and retrieve the withered tree guardian.
Qingwu returned to Kakashi's side and said:
"It does look evil, but Wood Release itself represents life force, so it's better than harming small animals, right?"
Kakashi turned his head to the side:
"The Death Forest is vast, with at least 200,000 large trees. What you say makes sense, but..."
"Unless it's a critical moment, it's best to recover through cultivation on your own. The recovery process itself is a form of cultivation!"
You're quite particular, but... 200,000 plants?
Qingwu's eyes lit up, and he unconsciously wiped away his drool.
The Death Forest has a diameter of 20 kilometers and a radius of 10 kilometers.
It was created by the First Hokage, Hashirama Senju, using Wood Release. After decades of growth, it is filled with towering trees that reach into the clouds.
Two hundred thousand trees—even if the trees vary in size, how much could they be converted into if all of them were collected?
Qingwu roughly calculated it, and his mouth watered: 2000000?
The Death Forest alone has over two million units of timber resources? That's enough to build anything! No wonder the saplings of the Ancient Tree of Life "chose" to build here.
"..." Kakashi looked at him strangely. "What are you doing?"
The kid in front of me is getting stranger and stranger.
"No," Qingwu wiped away her drool, "it's nothing, I'm going back to rest."
He's kicking people out.
Although I don't dislike Kakashi, it's inconvenient to do anything with him standing there.
"Your summoned creature... looks very strong." Kakashi didn't leave, saying, "I want to spar with you."
"!!" Qingwu blinked: "Did the Third Hokage ask you to test my limits?"
"..." Kakashi almost lost his balance.
Even if it's true, no one says it outright.
Faced with the silent Kakashi, Qingwu thought for a moment and replied, "Okay!"
He hadn't had a chance to test his new magic arrows until now.
However, he did not intend to summon centaurs.
Centaurs are used to compensate for the slow movement and inability of the Deadwood Guardians to reach certain areas.
Moreover, as a Tier 1 unit, it's very fragile; it would be a huge loss if Kakashi killed it.
"Zheng—"
Kakashi drew his ninja sword from behind his shoulder. "If I just kill you, the summoning will fail, right?"
Damn it!!
That's really cold-blooded.
Qingwu shouted, "Spirit Summoning Technique!"
"Bang!"
As the withered tree guardian appeared, its roots carried the green parasol tree's body onto its head.
"Kill me outright? If you can do that, then try it, senior!"
Qingwu's provocation was utterly impolite.
Whoosh!
Without saying a word, Kakashi instantly teleported away from where he stood.
click!
Where he had just stood, hard roots burst forth from the soil like thorns.
Although he had never fought against Wood Release, Kakashi knew that one of the reasons why Wood Release was so troublesome was that it could be hard or soft, controllable or offensive!
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
Kakashi's figure appeared in mid-air, leaving three afterimages as he attacked from the left, center, and right directions simultaneously!
Shadow Clone Technique!
Qingwu could not tell which one was the real body.
Give instructions to the Deadwood Guardian.
The withered tree guardian raised its two enormous hands to protect its front, while roots spread from its back, forming a rapidly closing wooden cage around the green wutong tree.
In this way, it will not obstruct Qingwu's vision, and it also has a considerable defensive capability.
"Clang—!!"
A sound like three metal objects clashing together rang out across the scene as Kakashi's three shadow clones clashed head-on with the withered tree guard's arm.
Wood chips flew everywhere.
However, the main body of the withered tree guardian is not as 'fragile' as its extended roots, and the ninja sword cannot inflict any effective damage on it.
Furthermore, during the head-on confrontation, the roots continuously emerging from the withered tree guardians had completely bound the three figures.
however……
Thud, thud, thud!
The three Kakashis simultaneously turned into white smoke.
The real Kakashi burst forth from the ground behind the withered tree guardian, a variant of the "Earth Release: Heart Decapitation Technique"!
Qingwu turned around, sensing something, and saw Kakashi rapidly forming hand seals.
"Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!"
A blazing fireball roared out, heading straight for the wooden cell.
Kakashi's battle strategy was very clear: it's common knowledge that wood is afraid of fire, and besides, the gaps in the wooden prison could be used to harm Qingwu inside with ninjutsu.
As the fireball approached, Qingwu remained calm and composed. With a slight thought, the head of the withered tree guardian turned around in a way that defied the laws of physics.
A glint of emerald green light flashed, and the wooden prison was instantly covered with a jade-like luster, its surface covered with moss resembling that on the body of a deadwood guardian.
boom!
The fireball struck the wooden prison.
Flames exploded, and a wave of heat swept through.
However, after the smoke and dust cleared, the surface of the wooden prison was only charred black, while the main body remained completely unharmed.
Furthermore, the charred areas are peeling off at a visible rate, revealing the newly formed wood underneath.
"This is..." The eyes behind the mask were filled with shock.
Being hit head-on by a powerful fireball, and this is all?
Qingwu himself was not surprised at all. The Kumu Guardian's offensive capabilities might be average, but in terms of defense, he was not afraid of this level of fire esoteric techniques.
"This isn't chakra!" Kakashi confirmed again.
He sensed the energy that had just flickered on the wooden cell up close.
"Senior, my Wood Release is a little different!" Qingwu, standing steadily atop the withered tree guardian, still offered this explanation.
"Hmph!" Kakashi snorted lightly, and his figure disappeared from the spot again.
With a speed at the level of a Jonin, Qingwu's eyes couldn't keep up.
Therefore, Qingwu's battle plan was very clear from the beginning: he stood on top of the withered tree guards.
If Kakashi tries to attack him, he can seize the opportunity to counterattack.
"left!!"
Qingwu's natural perception played a certain role.
The withered tree guardian reacted even faster than Qingwu's consciousness, the instant Kakashi's figure materialized three meters to Qingwu's left.
The giant wooden arm has already slammed down like a battering ram!
The attack speed was so fast that it tore through the air, emitting a muffled whistling sound!
"Bang!!!"
The giant arm struck the substitute wood left behind by Kakashi.
The real Kakashi reappeared, now directly in front of him, his hands already forming hand seals.
"Earth Release·Earth Style Wall!"
A thick earthen wall rose from the ground, not for defense, but as a foothold.
Kakashi used the momentum of the earthen wall as it took shape, and his figure shot towards the wooden cage where Qingwu was like an arrow.
at the same time.
Lightning gathered in his hands, like a thousand birds singing in unison...
