Wok Shadow Ninja

Chapter 328: The Book of Gelel

A quarter of an hour later, Ino estimated that she had infiltrated from the top of the ship's hull and had now descended about a hundred meters. By her calculations, she should be close to the semi-circular building, the area she believed to be the reactor or the bridge.

In a metal room the size of a basketball court, she saw a fat, middle-aged man wearing a monocle over his left eye.

"A ninja? Are you a ninja from Konoha Village?" The fat man's face was full of vigilance. It seemed the bad reputation of ninjas had not left a good impression on him.

Ino looked around. The layout of this room looked strange.

The mirror-smooth metal walls combined with rusty bronze pipes made everything seem so out of place. As she walked, Ino became more and more certain of her guess. This was a spaceship, but not a mothership, rather a small exploration vessel. It was unknown when it had crashed on this planet, but it was eventually dug out of the mountains by the people of the southern continent, like mining. After countless modifications, it had become what it was today.

Ino asked, "I like this base of yours very much. How about you sell it to me?"

The fat man first showed a friendly smile. "Actually, you don't have to buy it. You can join us, make this place your home. We can work together to build a peaceful world with no wars and no orphans."

He extended a hand, his words full of bewitchment. "I have seen many ninjas before… Looking at your age, killing people at such a young age, I imagine your heart must be in great pain, right? What a pity. A girl your age should be living happily with her parents, enjoying life, enjoying love, not killing and destroying like a tool. I can see the hesitation in your heart. Join us, and let's change this world together!"

Ino snorted in contempt. I've already played this game to death. You're trying this on me? You're still too green. Go and build a house for me!

She shook her neck. "So boring. I've already sent thirty-five people like you away. You're the thirty-sixth!"

The fat man didn't understand what she meant, what thirty-five, thirty-six, but he knew that Ino had not been bewitched by his words. He immediately tore off his disguise and raised his right fist at her with great hostility.

On the back of his hand was a piece of greenish fluorite. As the stone glowed faintly, the air was squeezed hard and blasted towards Ino like an air cannon.

"So this is the Stone of Gelel? Interesting."

The opponent's attack was not worth mentioning in Ino's eyes. The attack power was strong, and the speed was fast, but the intent was too obvious.

It was like dodging a bullet; you don't have to be faster than the bullet, just faster than the finger pulling the trigger.

Like the three female knights, the fat man himself had no chakra. To attack, he had to draw energy from the Stone of Gelel on the back of his hand. This attack efficiency was too low.

Ino used two consecutive Body Flicker Techniques to trick the fat man, causing the air cannons to hit empty space. Then, she rushed to the fat man's side like a phantom, punched him in the face, and as he was sent flying, she flew up again with another kick.

"Heavenly Foot of Pain!" A kick landed on the fat man's chest. Seeing his clothes tear, revealing dark green, steel-like muscles, Ino was a bit surprised and kicked him two more times.

The fat man flew high into the air, then fell in a parabola into the distance.

Ino stood where she was and stretched her ankle. This guy's body is so hard, as hard as a rock.

"Ah! You lowly bug, I'll twist your head off!" The fat man tore off his upper body clothes. His whole body was covered in dark green skin. A large part of his chest had caved in. Even with his amazing defense, he hadn't completely blocked Ino's Heavenly Foot of Pain.

Ino was worried that this guy had some other big move. Even a chicken could be killed with a butcher's knife. She immediately used her ultimate technique.

"Wood Release: Wood Dragon Technique!" In the metal room, relying on her own Yang Release chakra, Ino created a large number of trees out of thin air. A second later, the winding trees gathered together, forming a rather abstract-looking giant dragon.

The wood dragon let out a silent roar, and with a flicker of its body, it entangled the fat man.

It could even suppress the Nine-Tails, let alone a guy who was, all in all, just a bit stronger than a chunin. The Stone of Gelel on the back of the fat man's hand continuously supplied him with chakra, but this little bit of chakra was all absorbed by the wood dragon. With a "crack," the Stone of Gelel shattered into powder.

"No! No! No, you fool! That was the last Stone of Gelel! It was a priceless treasure! You brainless fool, you've ruined everything, it's all over!" The fat man's mentality collapsed, and he cursed hysterically.

Ino had no interest in him. She used her prayer beads to summon the Shinigami and sent away the freshly baked thirty-sixth living pile.

She didn't know the fat man's name, nor did she want to know.

Ino strolled around her spaceship. If I really can't beat Kaguya Ōtsutsuki later, I'll take my family to seek refuge on another planet? Maybe I'll even meet Luffy?

But how to repair and start this thing was a super difficult problem. She could only talk about it, not fix it.

The people of the southern continent had studied it for hundreds, thousands of years, and all they could do was make the spaceship move slowly. Let alone flying out of the atmosphere, they couldn't even make it float.

Ino studied it for a long time but couldn't find a clue. This should be a long-term project that required collective wisdom.

The grunts using iron hammers inside the spaceship had long had their minds wiped. Ino had killed most of them during her "infiltration." The rest, with the fat man "gone," all collapsed and became dead bodies.

Ino used Earth Release to clean up all the corpses, reaping a very clean spaceship wreck.

She found the Book of Gelel among the fat man's belongings. This book detailed the mining, smelting, and use of this ore with chakra properties, and roughly recorded some of the reasons for the fall of the former empire.

Ino was not interested in their history, but she was very interested in this new energy source.

Chakra, to put it bluntly, was natural energy formatted by the God Tree. This energy originally existed on the planet; it was just through the medium of the God Tree that it became more tame and easier to shape.

Kaguya Ōtsutsuki planted the God Tree with full malice; it was not to let humans have chakra.

The Sage of Six Paths was truly great and selfless. He established Ninshū and distributed his "seeds of chakra" to his followers to spread the teachings of Ninshū.

Chakra cannot be cultivated independently. If your bloodline ancestor had not obtained the Sage of Six Paths' permission, without this "seed of chakra" implanted in your bloodline, you could practice with a secret manual for a lifetime and still not be able to produce chakra.
