75 BSNW CH 071 Mother of Sage Beasts Talks

Suddenly a voice echoed in his mind "You are a strange soul little one. You are stronger than you should be at this point. Why is that so? Also, you are marked by some very strong powers, forces even stronger than me. Even that brat Hagoromo cant claim that. So I can conclude that you are not from this world huh ?"

Jun soon realized that this was the white fox sage. Having experience with Yakumo he affirmed the white fox sage with his mind. Resshin was pleasantly amused at this.

"Oh? You adapted pretty quickly, didn't you? Anyway, I see you have a mark of the newborn chakra beast? Smells like an unnatural one though, poor thing. It must have been created by someone that had no idea what they were doing. You need to merge with all parts of it soon. It's not okay to leave it split like that. Fortunately, Hagoromo already informed me of this and Rikuo has collected two of its seals. You must have already been in contact with at least one of the other three."

"I had contact with two actually, but I only bonded with one of the parts, I didn't know I had to do that with the other one at the time. Hence I have only around 5% of the chakra/spirit beast in me."

"Hmm," Resshin thought "In that case, each seal must be only containing around 5% of the beast as a way to power them. 5 seals mean you will first have to assimilate 25% of the beast through the five seals. Then you will have to assimilate with the rest at once when you are in complete control of this 25%."

"I understand. But we don't have much time, my master is stuck in the Evil Sealing Valley. Moreover, I heard that someone else is corrupting the main body of the spirit beast. I have to make it there with the other sealed parts before the master ends up hurt."

"Your master wouldn't have given you that time frame if he didn't think himself of being capable enough for holding on until then. Going without full preparation might put him in more danger than going a bit later. Anyway, bottom line is that I think you still have some time. Let's get you assimilated with the two seals we have."

Resshin then flicked two of her tails a bit and two ornate mirrors decorated with seals appeared before Jun. He immediately recognized them as they were similar to the two sealing mirrors he had seen before. He sat in a lotus position and activated his Heavenly Breathing Technique. It helped him to swiftly go into a deep meditative state.

He linked his chakra to the two mirrors and then used his chakra to form a pathway between his Chakravyuha seal and the mirrors and tugged with his chakra to pull the pieces of the Spirit Beast into himself. They resisted moving from the mirrors, but in his deep meditation state, Jun could literally feel no emotion or strain. He was like a machine, slowly but surely pulling the two pieces of the Spirit beast into himself.

After an unknown amount of time, Jun felt something inside himself snap in place and he felt as if he was becoming whole. After a second a burst of clarity hit his mind-space, he realized that both of the pieces had been merged into Chakravyuha and the mirrors were empty. He also felt new information being transferred to him by the System.

[Increase detected in Living Seal Chakravyuha - Evil Spirit Beast: 15%]

[Mind Space increased to 30%]

[Chakra Capacity increased greatly, Health increased slightly, Spirit grade increased to B]

[Spirit beast synchronization unlocked Two Kekkei Tota in Host]

[Ink Release Unlocked, Creature Release Unlocked]

Jun comprehended the information about the two Kekkei Tota he had unlocked. Ink release manifested a type of ink made of pure chakra. This ink could be transformed into multiple different patterns with purely his mind power. He could also transform the ink into different colors, even make it transparent or purely reflective. The best use he could think of currently was a battle application of Fuinjutsu or pure camouflage properties.

Creature release however was something terrifying. He could literally mold his body into the imitation of various creatures, increasing various properties or giving himself pseudo-Kekkei Genkai. For example, he could modify himself into a rabbit hybrid and give himself an pseudo swift release. Same with other creatures, taking their specialty and transforming it into a pseudo-Kekkei Genkai.

However, the main terrifying property of this Kekkei Tota was the ability to produce changes in others. It could be used to permanently improve, degrade, seal, or even give new abilities to others as long as they don't resist his chakra while he was making changes. Even if they resist he could enforce temporary changes depending on his willpower, chakra control, and mind power.

Coming out from his deep meditation, Jun discussed all of this with Resshin. She expected the parts about the Spirit beast, Chakra, Health, and Mind Space. However, the parts about the two Kekkei Tota were unknown to her as well and came as a surprise. She had heard of Ink release before, it was an extremely rare Kekkei Tota found in the Uzumaki clan.

It was extremely overpowered as the ink produced could not be removed by any normal means. Just like ninjas could use chakra to stick in various places or use chakra strings to create extremely sturdy links, this ink would be applicable on any solid, semi-solid, or liquid surface. Along with that, the property of being able to be controlled by mind power meant that an Uzumaki would be able to create havoc through Fuinjutsu at incredible speed and precision, all by their own ability. The ink would also boost the effects of the Fuinjutsu multiple folds.

The only downside to Fuinjutsu known at present was its need to be created with specific material, and even then the material could be destroyed to counter the Fuinjutsu. Ink release bypassed all this to create a nearly perfect ability when combined with Fuinjutsu. The only limitation would be the chakra quantity and control, but that was laughable for an Uzumaki who was known by the nickname 'Tailed Beasts without Tails'.

Creature Release completely blindsided her, no mention was ever found in history. If someone had ever unlocked it then they must have died before they could ever become someone famous or record their ability with some record. The creature was in no way inferior to Ink Release in her eyes.

If Ink Release could be said to be for being unparalleled in battle, Creature Release was perfect to create an unbeatable army or clan. After all, who would be able to beat a clan who would have each member complemented with abilities that counter their weakness? The clan would literally be able to create perfect soldiers, unbeatable in all aspects other than by incredible strategy or overwhelming power.

She discussed all this with Jun to make him realize to just what extent his powers will be coveted by others. Greed and Envy were two of the deadliest sins that plagued the Ninja Communities. If the Hidden Came to know of his abilities, then they could create a literal war for possessing him as an asset. If failing in that, that same war could be for destroying him, just as what happened with the Uzumaki Clan and Uzushiogakure.

Jun carefully listened to all her advice, he would be a fool to ignore any word of a being that literally has lived through all of Ninja History. He also took this time to gain basic proficiency over his two new Kekkei Genkai. He could now apply multiple basic seals in an instant, through chakra fog or thread or direct touch. He also used this to try and create a new martial art style just for him.

While experimenting with Creature Release, he found a hidden effect of this ability. Humans were also considered creatures, hence he could literally use this ability to correct anything he considered 'defect' in them. For example, letting an insomniac be able to sleep, someone with defective body part be able to regain use of the said part or even at some extreme levels repair things like permanently broken or degraded chakra networks. This release also complemented Iryojutsu or healing abilities immensely.

He used Creature Release to first and foremost remove the Insomnia effect from himself and was happy to see the perk disappear. He could still bypass the need to sleep by entering deep meditation, which would also help him in activating his bloodline faster. But that would be by choice, rather than an inability to sleep or rest in the normal way. This also improved his Gamer's Body, removing the need to sleep in a bed to recover. Any form of rest would lead to rapid recovery in health and chakra for him now.

The increase in mind power and perception brought by the Insomnia perk was negligible compared to what hosting the Spirit Beast had given him. Living Seal Chakravyuha was modifying him in real-time to be the perfect host to the Beast, hence leading to an increase in all properties related to Chakra, Mind-power, and Willpower.

He also wanted to remove the Genjutsu limitation he had, since Gamer's mind already gave him immense resistance to all Genjutsu based on how strong he was compared to the user. However since this would require him to manipulate effects to his chakra pathways and mind, he refrained from it. Till he would be able to say with surety that he had near perfect control over this ability, he would not be touching that forbidden area.

Resshin also approved of his choices and decisions, mind and chakra pathways were incredibly sensitive areas which should not be interfered with lightly. Resshin also informed him that he had taken best part of a week to merge with the Spirit Beast parts and awaken his Kekkei Tota. The barrier she had placed dampened the sense of time and all distractive elements for all those within it except the user of the barrier.

She removed it and Jun saw Rikuo floating in a lotus pose on top of a random crystal outcrop. Breeze was swirling around him, caressing him like a gentle lover. Seeing Jun was done with Resshin, Rikuo slowly and gracefully floated down like some divine being. Jun hated to admit it but be it his looks, ability or grace or style, this guy was top-notch in all. Plus he was the ideal person who would not be prideful of his abilities unnecessarily.

"Mother Resshin, is he ready?" Rikuo asked respectfully "If he is then we are too. We have already tracked down the last mirror, it's with those who are trying to corrupt the Spirit Beast. They are using Blood and Life sacrifice rituals to forcefully overpower the seal. To their misfortune, that was also the only clue that led us to them. The Seven Stars are ready to move out if Jun is ready too."

"Jun is ready too, he has gained enough control over his Jinchuriki Seal and abilities under my care to not hold you all back. Oh, and you are allowed to take all the Seven Stars except the newest child, Ikari Jihino. I have some instructions for him for the migration plan."

"As you wish Mother Resshin," Rikuo said with a bow "Come on Jun, let's go and meet up with the rest of your team and Seven Stars. We even brought the Blood user and the Genjutsu Girl from your hideout. They are all well rested and ready for our next journey."

"You guys didn't hurt them or anything right?" Jun called out worriedly "Chino is like my little sister and she is a little reckless with her Dojutsu, it literally uses up her body when she exceeds her limits."

"Don't worry, she and the rest are all fine. The Genjutsu girl did resist a bit but we were able to convince them we meant no harm. She was relieved when she found out you were not out on a suicide mission to rescue your friend and teacher. You have some pretty good friends, you should cherish them." Rikuo said with a smile.

"I had no choice," Jun said "at that time I knew nothing except that you guys are stronger than me and could beat me even if I went all out. Yakumo was the only one I could entrust Chino to. Anyway, I am glad it didn't come to the point that we would have to employ any desperate means."

"Agreed, although none of us harbored any real negative intentions, except old man Hastar." Rikuo clarified "But well he is a special case, he hates nearly all Dojutsu users with a deadly passion. But as I said, he is an anomaly and we have excellent recovery specialists even if it turned out that you guys were hurt a lot in our interactions. So everything was under control at all times, don't worry. Anyway, we are getting late, we need to meet up with the rest and move out to get the mirrors and help your master."
