After half a year of hard training in the desert, although the cross-country could not completely swallow up the original strength of the Erwei Brigade, he was still making progress. There were three main aspects of progress.
The first point is the mastery of the secret art of escape.
Half a year ago, Cross Country relied on the battle with the Erwei Brigade to complete the third stage of condensation and the fourth stage of condensation of the Yin Escape Brand. However, due to lack of time and being injured all the time, Cross Country failed to discover the ability to condense the third and fourth stages of the Yin Escape Brand. In the half year in the desert, there was enough time for cross-country. If the Yin Escape Brand's third-stage condensation ability and fourth-stage condensation ability had not been discovered, then half a year of cross-country time would have been wasted.
First, let’s talk about the three-stage condensation ability of Yin Escape Brand.
Speaking of which, for the ability to condense the Yin Escape brand in the third stage of cross-country, I need to thank Erwei Youlu more.
Because when Cross Country discovered the three-stage condensed ability of Yin Escape Brand, Cross Country suddenly discovered that his three-stage condensed ability of Yin Escape Brand was the fire of the netherworld!
That was what he gained from the confrontation with the two-tailed jinchuuriki Yukijin. The ability to condense the three stages of the cross-country Yin Escape brand is a weakened version of the Nether Fire.
The real Nether Fire is dark blue. If Erwei Mataita uses it himself, it will also contain a strange black aura, which can burn spiritual energy. As for the two-tailed jinchūriki Yukito, because he did not follow the eight-tailed ox-demon chuuriki Kirabi like in the original plot, the nether fire he mastered is slightly weaker, and it only has the ability to damage the spirit. It's just an energy ability. It's not as scary as the Nether Fire controlled by Erwei Mataita. The color is light blue.
As for the cross-country Yin Escape brand, the three stages of condensation, the Nether Fire mastered is light blue.
Maybe, the light blue Nether Fire is traveling again at the second end. From the perspective of the existence that controls the real Nether Fire, it is completely a weak flame. But in cross-country, it is an improvement to be able to initially master the Nether Fire, not to mention that cross-country has the possibility of swallowing Erwei Youlv's original ability. If he can swallow Erwei Youlv's original ability, his Nether Fire will be Is it possible to evolve again?
Secondly, let’s talk about the ability to condense the four stages of Yin Escape Brand.
The four-stage condensation of the Yin Escape Brand, cross-country, relies on the power of the Yin Escape inheritance brand of the Uzumaki clan to successfully complete the condensation. It is also because of this that the four-stage condensed ability of Cross Country's Yin Escape Brand is biased towards assisting abilities. For example, cross-country can use mental communication without using shadow communication, the ability to eavesdrop on other people's mental communication, and the ability to read other people's memories are the abilities brought about by the condensation of the four stages of cross-country's Yin Escape brand.
Finally, let’s summarize the off-road Yin Escape branding capabilities.
It is the form of the Yin Escape Brand itself. The first ability is to use the secret technique of Shadow Escape by using spiritual energy. The "Beiming" that can swallow other people's spiritual energy is the second ability. The "Bei Ming" that can purify other people's mixed spiritual energy and purify spiritual energy is "No form" is the third ability, and the light blue netherworld fire is the fourth ability. It can use spiritual energy to communicate spiritually "without distance" and peek into other people's spiritual communication and memory. The ability to cross-country is named "peeping". It’s the fifth ability.
The second point is that in addition to exploring all the mysteries of the Yin Escape Brand, in addition to the training in the Yin Escape Secret Technique, cross-country training in the Yang Escape Secret Technique has already begun.
Although he can't use chakra, he relies on the sharp spear flow to temper his body. However, relying on the secret techniques used by the God of Wind and Thunder to train the body, cross-country physical fitness has still improved in half a year of hard training. However, the inability to use chakra still limits the practice of cross-country, so just relying on some self-explored physical exercise methods, the improvement of cross-country physical fitness is very limited. If the physical fitness of cross-country before was 100 points. .
After half a year of hard training, my cross-country physical fitness has only increased by 10 points at most, which is not slow.
The third point, what is the progress of cross-country in half a year of hard training?
The answer is "wind"!
After liberating the power of "Heavenly Jealousy", Crossroads vaguely understood the mystery of "wind".
Now in the desert, even if chakra cannot be used, off-roaders can rely on the understanding brought about by liberating the power of "Jealousy" to faintly capture the breath of "wind", using alternative methods, methods that do not use chakra , cast the Fourth Hokage's secret technique of perception, which is the perception of wind.
Therefore, even if Kagura's eyes were not opened before Cross Country, after understanding the mystery of "wind", Cross Country can still sense that someone has stepped into his territory without using chakra.
Immediately afterwards.
As Cross Country's gaze moved away, the figure that suddenly appeared in the desert came into view of Cross Country.
Looking away, what do you see at the first glance?
It's a monk!
It's a monk with an old face walking barefoot in the desert!
The monk's face looked very rough and full of wrinkles. Just by looking at it, he was about eighty or ninety years old. Moreover, his eyebrows were very long, and the front half was still black, but the back half was already white. This showed that Cross Country's guess was not wrong at all. The monk who appeared in front of him was indeed an old monk.
But is it possible for an ordinary, old monk to wander in the boundless desert?
Of course it’s impossible!
Even if you go off-road, it is difficult to move in the desert because you have lost the use of chakra. But don't forget that Cross Country is a shadow-level expert in the ninja world. Even if he is injured, he almost lost his life in the desert. The monk who looks ordinary and old, but is actually walking in the desert without even a trace of wind and frost. How can he be an ordinary person?
"It's strange!"
"This guy doesn't have the aura of a strong man at all. Even when I use Kagura's Heart Eye, I can't detect the aura of chakra hidden in him. Could it be that he is really not a ninja?"
"How is that possible?"
"How can he walk in the desert without having practiced ninja training? Hmm." "
The place I am now should be in the Kingdom of Wind, which means this guy may be a sand ninja." Village? However, in the original plot, apart from the old woman Chiyo and the old man Ebizou, there seems to be no other strong people in Suna Ninja Village, right? Wait, this guy gives me a vaguely familiar aura, Could it be..."
He thought to himself secretly, and he vaguely guessed the monk's identity.
However, without giving Cross Country any time to confirm, the monk suddenly took a step under the guard of Cross Country.
One step to the end of the world, one step to the edge!
Just taking one step, the monk actually strolled directly in front of the cross country. Immediately, he slowly opened his eyes, and the monk's words made him shrink slightly!
"Young man, you have an aura that I am familiar with."
"Could it be that you are a Jinchuuriki in the ninja world who just completed the seal not long ago?"
