Hokage: Ryo's Path

Chapter 447

After understanding the man’s basic situation in front of him, Yamanaka Ryo secretly established a spiritual link with Namikaze Minato and Shisui, and they briefly explained.

As Yamanaka Ryo and Namikaze Minato explained, the middle-aged man in front of him said with a complicated expression, “I never thought there would be people who know our language in the Otsutsuki Hagoromo’s World, and...”

As the voice was too low, Yamanaka Ryo didn’t hear him clearly. However, that didn’t stop him from getting close to the middle-aged man. Yamanaka Ryo said cheekily, “Senpai, that means we’re fated to be together!”

“Fate? Haha! Interesting. Kid, how can you say it’s fate. Now, tell me, what do you want to know?”

“Senpai, how do you know I have something to ask you?”

“Because of the probing you just did.”

Yamanaka Ryo’s face reddened. He coughed dryly and said, “Well, since you have said so, then I will not be polite. I want to know about the Otsutsuki Clan.”

The middle-aged man frowned; he hesitated for a moment and then said, “Okay, I’ll tell you. The Otsutsuki Clan is a family that aims to plunder the fruit of the world tree.”

“Every day, their clan will use special techniques to find planets with world trees in the starry sky. Once they find a planet with a world tree, they will secretly observe it. As long as the planet is not stronger than their existence, the Otsutsuki clan will go and pick the fruit of the world tree.”

“The fruit of the world tree is the most fundamental power of a planet. After eating the fruit, you will have the same life expectancy as the planet. You will also gain great power, which is the reason the Otsutsuki clan became stronger.”

“Then, senpai, what happens to the planet that loses the fruit of the world tree?” Yamanaka Ryo asked.

“This depends on the situation of the planet where the world tree grows. Generally, there are two situations.”

“First, the world tree will storm out and start looking for the lost fruit. This is the case when the world is already quite well established and has emerged with its power system.”

“Second is that the world tree withers on this and will not show its power system from now on.”

Yamanaka Ryo was surprised by what he heard.

According to what this middle-aged man said just now, the world tree will be berserk only if the world had its power system, which means that Ninja World had its power before the appearance of chakra.

Yamanaka Ryo caught the important information and hurriedly asked, “Senpai, what is the power of the Otsutsuki Clan? Is it chakra?”

“Chakra? You mean the power used by the two of them?” The middle-aged man asked, pointing to Namikaze Minato and Shisui.

“Un!“

The middle-aged man closed his eyes and recalled the power used by the Namikaze Minato and Shisui just now, then said, “Their power was not as good in quality as the power used by the Otsutsuki Clan, but it should be the same kind of power.”

Upon hearing this, Yamanaka Ryo was basically sure that the chakra used by Ninja World was the power system of the Otsutsuki Clan.

Correspondingly, the natural chakra that had always existed in the Ninja World was the Ninja World’s power system. Juubi in the world tree incarnation was part of the natural chakra. With Juubi becoming Obito in Rikudo Mode, only natural chakra could hurt Uchiha Madara.

After realizing this, Yamanaka Ryo turned the conversation, “Senpai, how powerful will the people of the Otsutsuki Clan be when they eat the world fruit?”

“This depends on the power system of this world. Like your world, the original power system must be compelling; otherwise, it would not have given birth to strong people like Otsutsuki Hagoromo and Otsutsuki Hamura.”

“Are the two of them considered strong in the outside world as well?”

“Of course, especially Otsutsuki Hagoromo. His power in the Otsutsuki Clan at the time can be considered the top of the existence. It is because of his existence that for so many years, no other people have thought of your world.”

“However, it seems that a few hundred years ago, I heard that someone managed to make a deal with the natives of your world and harvested souls from your world.”

Yamanaka Ryo spoke with a flash of light, “Harvested souls from our world? Senpai, are you talking about this person?”

With that said, Yamanaka Far used his Spiritual Strength to send the image of Shinigami in Shiki Fujin to the middle-aged person.

After seeing the image of Shinigami, the middle-aged man nodded and said, “That’s right; it’s him. He is considered the most thorough researcher of souls in the sky. His fighting strength is not very strong. However, in terms of soul and Spiritual Strength, no one in the stars is better than him.”

Yamanaka Ryo gave a bow to the middle-aged man, “Thank you, senpai, your information has helped me a lot today.”

The middle-aged man waved his hand and said, “No need to be so polite, but I told you so many things, in return, shouldn’t you answer my question?”

“Please, senpai.”

“Kid, you speak Akatsuki, the language of our clan. This is not strange as many people in the starry sky know various languages. The strange thing is that you actually have the aura of our clan in your soul. Can you explain?”

Yamanaka Ryo hesitated. He didn’t expect the middle-aged person to ask this. After hesitating for a while, Yamanaka Ryo said, “I can tell Senpai about this, but can Senpai tell me first, what is your clan?”

The middle-aged man smiled and said, “The clan I’m talking about is not a clan. It’s a race; our race is called Yan-Huang.”

Yamanaka Ryo was thrilled to hear the words Yan-Huang.

The middle-aged man noticed Yamanaka Ryo’s emotions changed and said, “It seems that you really have a relationship with our clan. All right, kid, no need to explain, this is for you.”

The middle-aged man threw a piece of a jade pendant to Yamanaka Ryo.

Yamanaka Ryo took the jade pendant and asked strangely, “Senpai, what is this?”

“This jade pendant has the space coordinates of our clan. I hope you have a chance to go home to see it.”

After saying that, the middle-aged man disappeared.

Yamanaka Ryo immediately put the jade pendant away carefully and muttered, “Are you going home? It’s fascinating.”

“Ryo, what did you say after talking to that man for so long?” Namikaze Minato’s words interrupted Yamanaka Ryo’s thoughts.

Yamanaka Ryo then told the two about the Otsutsuki Clan and the true origin power of the Ninja World.

After listening to Yamanaka Ryo’s words, Namikaze Minato and Shisui both froze for a while.

Namikaze Minato returned to his senses and said with a complicated face, “I never thought that the chakra we used was not our power.”

Yamanaka Ryo nodded and said, “It’s hard to believe, but that’s how it is.”

“I suppose when Rikudo Sennin gave chakra’s refinement method to the world, I didn’t know that we have our power system.”

“Later, I learned that chakra has already taken root in our world, and I can’t change it even if I want to.”

“That’s why the Ninja World has passed down chakra as our power to this day.”
