On a training ground surrounded by forests on three sides and a tall rock wall in front of her, Liuli stood in the center of the field.
Adjust your breathing and sink your body slightly. Because the chakra in the body and the natural energy integrated into the body can be mobilized in an instant with just thoughts, turning it into the nature of fire, so Liuli only needs to form a seal to complete the fire escape. The release of ninjutsu.
"Art fire escape ho fireball!"
The surrounding temperature rose sharply, and the air was filled with extremely hot energy. Then at a speed visible to the naked eye, the air began to twist, and a huge and blazing fireball danced straight forward.
The moment this fireball appeared, people were unable to raise the will to resist. Calculated in terms of diameter, it was at least eight meters.
In the eyes of outsiders, the areas where the fireball passed have begun to deform and bend.
A deep semicircular track was drawn on the ground, charging at extremely fast speeds, and with a roar, it collided with the tall rock wall in front of it.
Even the power of dozens of detonating talismans detonating together is not as powerful as this fireball.
A hole slightly larger than the diameter of the fireball was dented in the rock wall. The hot flames were still spitting in the cracks of the rock, dyeing the hard rocks fiery red and emitting hot steam.
If someone were standing nearby, their trachea might be burned just by breathing through their mouth.
"Is this the increase brought about by magic?"
Liuli looked at his hands, and they felt a little different from the Immortal Fire Release released a few years ago. The increased power was not as powerful as that time, but it was better than stability.
"How does it feel, trying out magic?"
Bai Shi came from the side and asked Liuli with a smile.
"Except for the power, everything else is fine."
"There is no way. This is a trial-type Sage mode, which reduces the amplification ability of Taijutsu, Illusion, and Ninjutsu. On the other hand, it is absolutely safe in terms of performance. My experiments have always been based on stability."
Shiraishi explained.
"That is to say, after practicing the complete immortal mode, you can continue to strengthen it, right?"
"That's right. After all, it is a trial version of the immortal model. There are possibilities for improvement in many places."
But it can be seen from the ninjutsu released just now that even in the trial sage mode, the power of fire escape amplification is very considerable.
Under normal circumstances, the diameter of Liuli's fireball technique is about four meters, but after entering the trial sage mode, the diameter of the fireball increases to more than eight meters.
The power has been increased at least several times.
"It doesn't matter. Power that cannot be controlled cannot be called power. This is enough for me to squander."
Liuli clenched her fists and felt the powerful power in her body. Both her physical and mental state were better than normal.
This Immortal mode, which is known for its stability, can be used for continuous fighting, rather than being a defective product that will have side effects after being maintained for a period of time. This is more suitable for her performance.
Bai Shi smiled and said nothing.
"As long as you're satisfied, do you want to use celestial chakra next to test other moves?"
Shiraishi asked next.
"No need to go to such trouble. Through the high fire ball just now, I already know where the limit of this kind of sage mode amplified ninjutsu is. Next is the taijutsu."
Liuli replied.
"Need a test subject?"
Shiraishi asked.
"I've found it, the perfect sacrifice."
After saying that, Liuli disappeared from the place.
At the edge of the training ground, the lurkers who had sneaked into the soil to observe secretly saw this scene and suddenly screamed secretly.
Because he couldn't hear the voices of Liuli and Shiraishi, and their backs were turned to him, and they didn't know the shape of their mouths, so he didn't know what the two exchanged.
But he could intuitively see Liuli experimenting with the Fire Release Ninjutsu there. The C-level Fireball Jutsu became extremely terrifying. It was obvious that the opponent had mastered some powerful means that could double the power of the Fireball Jutsu.
This important information must be passed back.
However, before he could evacuate, he saw Liuli disappear from his sight, and knew that his whereabouts were likely to be noticed.
He immediately began to move backwards in the soil, preparing to escape from here.
The next moment, there was the sound of earth exploding in the woods, smoke and dust scattered, and a large number of stones flying everywhere. From the cracked earth, the lurker jumped out with shocked eyes.
He was shocked by the power of Liuli's casual blow.
This kind of strange power technique...he had only seen it in Tsunade, one of the three ninjas.
When did this little Uchiha girl master this kind of strange power technique?
What's going on?
"I thought it was who it was, but it turned out to be a little mouse at the root."
Liuli stood on the outer edge of the pit and said to the exposed root ninja. His eyes were as sharp as a blade, making the hidden root ninja feel great pressure.
As a result, the face under the mask of the root ninja was soaked with cold sweat, and before he could make any move, Liuli disappeared from his eyes again.
He wanted to find Liuli's figure, but there was nothing in front of him. At the moment when the atmosphere exploded, his body flew like a cannon towards the training clearing where Liuli had previously tested the magic.
After a hard contact with the ground, a hole was created. He stood up from the hole shaking and covered in blood. His right arm was twisted and bent, and he was completely disabled.
The mask on his face also cracked and fell to the ground, revealing the face of a young man with blood flowing from the corner of his mouth.
He looked at Liuli who was slowly walking out of the woods. It seemed that he had enough time to deal with him and was not worried that he would escape from here.
And the root ninja also knew that he could not run out no matter what, nor could he send the information here. He was heartbroken, dragged his body in pain, and rushed directly in the direction of Shiraishi.
Even if he dies, he still has to be dragged into the water.
According to the information, this guy is a medical ninja. Even if he is seriously injured now, he can die with him.
Seeing this root ninja rushing towards Shiraishi, Liuli just glanced at it lightly and did not stop him.
Shiraishi just stood there motionless, letting the palm of this root ninja touch his body.
Won!
The root ninja's face was filled with joy, and the next moment he showed a look of astonishment.
"Guah——"
I didn't know when I fell into a huge water ball. A large amount of water poured into my mouth. I was choked for a while. I spit out bubbles in the water ball and struggled painfully in the water.
Is this water prison technique?
when?
The root ninja was completely unable to understand what was going on in front of him.
There is no seal on the other side. When did the Water Prison Technique come into being?
Was it triggered the moment he touched the other person's body?
This guy's ninjutsu... is really insidious!
Using the last remaining strength to open his eyes, the root ninja stared at Shiraishi's harmless smile, with only this thought in his mind.
This is a water trap technique that triggers a reaction once it attacks its body.
Setting up such a technique on his body to ambush enemies who are unfamiliar with his fighting style can be said to be a very cunning tactic.
Moreover, he found that the information about Shiraishi collected by Genbu was ridiculously wrong.
"How many mechanisms have you set up on yourself?"
Liuli walked over slowly and looked at this scene speechlessly.
"That's it. After all, I'm a very life-conscious person. This trick is a combination of the Substitute Technique and the Water Prison Technique. How about it? It's a good idea, isn't it? Although it's not very aggressive, but for people who don't know me well, the first If you come into contact with me once, you will definitely be controlled by the water prison and let me slaughter you."
Shiraishi said with a smile.
Although the shadow dancer in the shadow is responsible for his own safety, if the shadow dancer cannot take care of him, then the triggering spell on his body will be useful.
And here, it was only Shiraishi who wanted to test the actual combat results of this move that prevented Shadow Dancer from controlling this root ninja.
At present, it seems that there are no major problems, and the effect and response are very good.
And because it incorporates natural energy, even if Shiraishi himself is not needed, it can be maintained until the chakra and natural energy disappear naturally.
It can be said to be a very convenient trap ninjutsu.
"Liu Li, do you want to use this guy to experiment with illusions in sage mode?"
Shiraishi asked.
Both ninjutsu and taijutsu have been tested, and the power is different from normal.
"No, I'm in a hurry now, so I'll leave him to you."
Liuli looked at the root ninja who was struggling and suffering in the water prison. He had lost the value of testing the power of immortal magic, so he shook his head and used the teleportation technique to leave here.
Baishi saw Liuli leaving without saying anything, so he formed a seal with his hands and unlocked the water prison technique.
At the moment when the water prison technique was released, the soil on the ground surged, and the soil general directly swallowed the root ninja who was unable to move, lurking underground and disappeared.
The experimental human body sent for free is still a precious jounin experimental body. It is rare to see such a precious level, so I cherish it very much.
To be honest, Shiraishi didn't know how to thank Danzo, the root leader.
He accepted this thank you gift with disrespect.

The country of ghosts.
This is a very mysterious country.
This country is different from other countries in that there is no ruler with the identity of a daimyo. Instead, there is an existence called a 'miko'.
A neutral country led entirely by witches.
In this era of frequent conflicts between one country and one village, the Kingdom of Ghosts has become one of the few countries that can enjoy peace in the war-torn era due to its remote location.
The territory of this country cannot be compared with the five major countries, but among the small countries, the territory is relatively broad.
The political environment within the country is clear and the people live and work in peace and contentment. It is a suitable place for a stable residence in the ninja world, and the Ghost Country is undoubtedly one of them.
It can be seen that on the original map of the capital of the Kingdom of Ghosts, a new small urban area was built in the north, which is regarded as an affiliated area of the capital.
This city is surrounded by huge white walls, with only two gates as entrances and exits, one of which leads south to the capital of the Kingdom of Ghosts, and the other leads north to the plains outside.
The words 'no entry' are marked on the top of both doors, completely separating them from residential and commercial areas.
It also means that this is an important military location and ordinary residents and outsiders are not allowed to visit.
There are a large number of guards closely guarding the two gates of the important military area.
At the beginning, it would attract crowds of people to watch, but after getting used to it, everyone became accustomed to it.
After all, the establishment of a military area next to the capital was personally approved by their supreme witch.
The people of this country are not keen on the rule of daimyo and nobles. For them, the miko is the only ruler and faith. They just need to unswervingly execute the orders given by the miko.
From the outside, only tall white walls can be seen blocking the view, but inside, there are many buildings.
Dormitories, training grounds, infirmaries, playgrounds, office buildings, weapons depots, classrooms, libraries, and more hidden manufacturing plants and laboratories are built underground.
This is also the headquarters of the organization founded by Shiraishi.
About a year ago, the total number of people in the organization reached about 700. After the expansion of Ziyuanhua Pharmaceutical Company and the continuous financial income, the number of people has now expanded to more than 1,000.
There are a total of more than 600 people staying at the headquarters, and more than 400 people are scattered throughout the ninja world, with either explicit or covert identities. Their main task is to collect intelligence in the ninja world.
There are also elites like the Insect Team, who hang out in the underground black market and are famous as bounty hunters.
"I haven't been back for a long time. The changes here are really big."
Insect Man walked on the spacious corridor and looked out the window.
"It was probably two months ago since you last came back. A lot of new buildings have been added here, and some manpower has also been replaced. You will definitely feel that there have been great changes."
The staff member following the insect man, wearing a standard black windbreaker with an asters symbol embroidered on the back, smiled at the insect man.
"That's true. How many people are able to fight here at the headquarters now?"
Bug Man asked casually.
"There are about four hundred and fifty people. Moreover, I estimate that there will be a big operation next."
Hearing what the staff said, the insect man frowned slightly.
"Operation?"
"Those Uzumaki clan members who were recruited are very satisfied with the life here, and after seeing our sincerity, they gradually accepted the fact of becoming one of us. Just a while ago, they told me that I was with other Uzumaki clan survivors Contact details for making contact.”
"This is the matter."
The insect man thought for a while, and indeed, the few remnants of the Uzumaki clan recruited by the five of them had been living here for quite some time.
A stable living environment, clean water and food, no people with bad intentions who covet their blood and sealing skills, and strength training for the children among them.
It has to be said that the children of the Uzumaki clan cannot be underestimated. Their physique and natural energy are a perfect match. They only need a little exercise to form regular combat effectiveness.
Not to mention, the elite teaching implemented for these children of the Uzumaki clan, whether it is ideological lessons or strength, is not treated lightly.
Seeing all this, the adults of the Uzumaki clan will naturally feel at ease and want to use the power here to save the remaining members of the Uzumaki clan who are still in suffering and fleeing.
For them, this is no less than a second home suitable for survival.
"Have you contacted the leader?"
"I have sent the communication letter to Konoha, and it has been received by Lord Shogun. But this operation is probably not going to go smoothly because it is a bit troublesome to bring back the remnants of the Uzumaki clan."
The staff member gave a wry smile, obviously encountering some obstacles during the work process.
"trouble?"
"The day before yesterday, we successfully found more than a dozen remnants of the Uzumaki clan and brought them back here. The remaining Uzumaki clan remnants are also sending people to contact them and strive to bring them back as soon as possible. But one of them The remnants of the Uzumaki are located in Kusakure Village."
The staff member exhaled softly, his expression extremely cautious.
"Grass Hidden Village?"
The insect man looked surprised.
"Is that a ninja village that plays host to other great ninja villages? I heard that it is famous for its ability to study ninjutsu from other villages. For those great ninja villages, they probably don't care about it, but for us, it is indeed not easy to deal with. .”
Kusakure Village, the ninja village bug man, knew that the ninja village in the Country of Grass was among the major ninja villages. The domestic rulers were corrupt and incompetent, and like the Country of Rain, it was a war-stricken area.
After the First Ninja War, Konoha showed its extremely strong international status, established an alliance with Konoha, and took refuge in Konoha.
However, during the Second Ninja War, he took refuge in Iwagakure and challenged Konoha.
As a result, Konoha won the Rain Kingdom War, and he quickly re-entered the embrace of Konoha and established friendly relations.
In the end, when Konoha and Sunagakure fought, they swayed back and forth between the two villages. It can be said that it was a very spineless Ninja Village.
He is good at imitating and learning the ninjutsu of other villages, and his diplomatic methods follow the "grassroots" setting, and he will follow whoever is stronger.
But even so, Caoyin Village is a ninja village recognized by all countries, and the power of ninja is not weak among small countries.
For their organization, it is a difficult role to crack.
If some remnants of the Uzumaki clan fell into their hands... it would really not be easy to handle.
To go against a Ninja Village, or even to compete head-on, even if this Ninja Village is a small Ninja Village, it is really too much.
"Headquarters lacks an elite ninja team that breaks into Kusagakure Village. Those who can be called Jonin can barely gather ten people. With this few manpower, we want to get the remnants of the Uzumaki clan out of Kusugakure Village safely. The price of sacrifice will be high if you are sent to the Kingdom of Ghosts."
The staff conducted a reasonable analysis.
After years of development, the size of the organization has indeed become much larger, but the elite combat power of the Jonin level is still relatively lacking.
Even Xiao Ninja Village, they can't compare.
In ninja villages of the level of the five major countries, the number of jounin is even larger.
Genin is the potential, chunin is the backbone, and the quantity and quality of jounin are the intuitive expression of the strength of a force.
"It depends on what the leader says. This is not something we can decide."
The insect man felt that things were troublesome, so he said,
"That's all."
The staff nodded.
After all, with the strength here at the headquarters, it is more than enough to protect itself, but not enough to attack.
Compared to those ninja villages, the manpower of their organization is still too small.
And many of them have just started training and need time to improve.

"Is there a group of Uzumaki survivors settled in Kusakure Village? It's a little troublesome."
Shiraishi, who was in the laboratory of the Konoha Uchiha clan, naturally received news from the Kingdom of Demons.
Since the Uzumaki clan was exterminated, the surviving members of the Uzumaki clan have scattered all over the ninja world, fleeing in exile, and have secret ways of communicating with each other, which is not beyond Shiraishi's expectation.
But some of the remnants of the Uzumaki clan fell into the hands of the Ninja Village, which was undoubtedly a troublesome matter.
Fortunately among the misfortunes, these remnants of the Uzumaki clan did not fall into the hands of the great ninja villages, but were hidden by small ninja villages like Kusakure. This fact made Shiraishi breathe a sigh of relief.
But Shiraishi knows one thing, that is, the manpower in the Demon Country is not enough to bring out the Uzumaki clan remnants from the Kusakure Village. How to safely transport these Uzumaki clan members to the Demon Country is also a problem.
But Shiraishi himself cannot leave Konoha now, because how to rescue the remnants of the Uzumaki clan cannot be a short-term job.
He has to report to the ninja school every day. Even if he takes advantage of the two days of vacation per week, he can easily expose himself.
The general's combat ability is very weak. Although he can carry a large amount of explosives to cause chaos in the Kusakin Village, it is still the size of a shinobi village, and it is impossible to attract all the people together.
Shadow Dancers need to protect themselves and cannot be easily mobilized.
Bug Man's secret technique is good, but the production process of blasting bugs is very troublesome, the quantity is very small and precious, and it is not suitable for large-scale group operations.
"What a headache...forget it, although it is much earlier than the original plan, but since we have to face Cao Yin Village, we cannot take it lightly and must treat it with caution."
Shiraishi thought for a while and decided to rescue the remnants of the Uzumaki clan who were imprisoned in Kusakure Village as soon as possible.
But how to save him and who should be the mastermind behind breaking through the Kusakin Village defense line are all issues that Shiraishi needs to seriously consider.
This is also where Bai Shitou hurts.
"It seems that we have no choice but to create new clones to make up for the lack of combat effectiveness."
Shiraishi murmured.
Thinking about it carefully, this is the only feasible method at the moment.
The model design and corresponding attributes of the avatar have been conceived as early as the initial stage.
The materials here in the laboratory, as well as the recently completed trial-type immortal model, are all ready.
However, due to the need to fill the fairy system, the creation cycle will be longer than before. In addition, compared with the previous Earth General and Shadow Dancer, the clones created this time are also more special, and it will take at least more than a month.
It just so happened that the 'systems' of the Earth General and Shadow Dancer were replaced again, and their abilities were replaced with the fairy magic system. This was also a huge and time-consuming project.
Before preparing to create a clone, Shiraishi issued an order to the Country of Demons to conduct a detailed investigation of Kusakure Village.
Since we want to rescue the Uzumaki clan remnants from within Caoyin Village, we must first grasp where in Caoyin Village those Uzumaki clan remnants are being held, as well as the number of guards, the strength of the watchers, etc.
These must be investigated clearly.
When his new clone is created, it's time to make a surprise attack on Kusakure Village.
And maybe this plan to surprise Kusakure Village can be used as a practical exercise to attack the ninja village.
It is also of great significance to accumulate sufficient practical experience for future larger-scale actions.
