Nara Langui looked at the item introduction on the panel, and his whole mood could only be described in two words.
General anesthesia!
He had guessed that the wood that could be used to make chakra test strips had a special texture.
For example, what are "mutated trees"?
After all, even toads, slugs, and snakes can mutate, so why can't trees mutate?
At most, Nara Langui thinks that this kind of tree is a special wood made by using the power of wood escape when the first Hokage conquered the world.
Unexpectedly...
This wood is not only a "mutated tree", but it is also related to "Wood Release".
It’s just the ancestor of Wood Escape—the sacred tree!
Relevant information about the "Sacred Tree" emerged in Nara Langui's mind.
"The sacred object of the Otsutsuki clan, which produces chakra fruit by absorbing the energy of the planet, the initial source of chakra, and the true form of the Ten-Tails..."
Nara Langui looked at the SSS-level debris [branch of the sacred tree] in front of him and retracted his hand as if he was electrocuted.
"How can this thing be bought from a store like this?
"This is not some Six Paths Ninja Tool!"
At this time, Nara Langui's mood was as if he wanted to take a paperweight to hold down a book, but he took it out casually and took out an infinity stone.
Even if we know that there is a huge difference between the [branch of the sacred tree] and the real sacred tree;
Even if we know that the SSS-level evaluation of [Branches of the Divine Tree] is definitely extremely flawed;
But the most urgent task is to find out the origin of this [divine tree branch] as soon as possible!
'Two possibilities!'
Nara took Gui and picked up the [branch of the sacred tree], randomly separated two [shadow clones] to clean up the housework, exercise themselves, and then ran out the door without looking back.
'The first possibility is that this [branch of the sacred tree] is indeed the product of the wood escape of the big pillar back then, and the real rating of the wood escape is not the limit of the blood successor, nor the elimination of the blood successor, but the rumored blood successor
Snare!'
'The second possibility is that the source of this [branch of the sacred tree]... is the heretic demon!'
With a restless mood, Nara Langui quickly came to Mandiantang.
It was approaching late at night, and apart from the boss, there was no one else in the restaurant.
"Well, this guest?"
The boss looked at the Aburame clan ninja running back with wood in his arms, his eyes full of vigilance.
"Can I help you with anything?"
"This piece of wood."
Nara Langui placed the [Divine Tree Branch] on the counter.
"Where did you buy it from?"
"What does this mean, guest?"
The boss simply stopped pretending. He crossed his arms over his chest and showed a cold attitude.
"Purchasing channels are an important secret for the survival of a small store. Customers, you think I can reveal it casually——"
"I'll add money."
"Guest, you are really good at judging people!"
After collecting a considerable tip, the owner of Mandiantang whispered.
"This special wood used to make chakra test strips is a new species discovered only in recent decades.
"At first, everyone thought that this kind of tree only grew in the Kingdom of Fire. Unexpectedly, trees with similar effects were also found in the Kingdom of Iron."
Nara Langui asked: "So where does this piece of wood come from?"
"Guest, you are embarrassing me too much."
The owner of Mandiantang said with a smile on his face.
"I'm just an ordinary ninja shop owner. If you ask me which country has what special products, I can answer one or two.
"But how can I tell whether a piece of wood was grown in the Land of Fire or the Land of Iron?"
Nara Langui picked up the [divine tree branch] and looked back and forth.
The owner of Mandiantang looked at the weird behavior of this Aburo ninja, but considering the tip he just paid, he still didn't say anything to dissuade her.
'Are the ninjas of the Aburame clan so rich? It seems that the previous price increase was conservative...'
Just when the boss of Mandiantang was in a state of disbelief.
"Boss, a bottle of Mutiandu drink, please pay."
"Chenghui 50 taels."
Nara Langui took out a steel coin, paid the money, and left Mandiantang with the [Divine Tree Branch] and the Muten Polygonum drink.
'In the end, I still got nothing... It's not like I got nothing at all. At least I got an answer from the Iron Kingdom.'
'The special trees in the Land of Fire can probably correspond to Senju Hashirama's Wood Release.'
'But the Kingdom of Iron? Does the Heretic Golem have anything to do with the Kingdom of Iron?'
'Or is it that for decades after Uchiha Madara faked his death, his hiding place was in the Land of Iron?'
Return home.
Nara Langui placed the Mutenpo drink on the storage compartment near the entrance, and returned to the training room with the [divine tree branch].
Although it is not yet clear where the [branch of the sacred tree] comes from.
However, Nara Langui still planned to use this [divine tree branch] to make [nature mask] according to the original plan.
"Using SSS-level items to practice my skills, does this count as a waste of natural resources?"
When making his first mask, Nara Langui didn't have much requirements in terms of precision.
Cutting out a nearly five-centimeter-thick wooden board from the [divine tree branch] - [Nature Mask] also has certain requirements in terms of protective effect - Nara Langui tried to inject his own chakra into the wooden board.
But the little bit of chakra he poured into the [branch of the sacred tree] was like a stream flowing into the sea, without causing any impact.
"It seems that the [branch of the sacred tree] will not have a special reaction to chakra like the chakra test paper... although this is a matter of course."
"But in this way, the [Mask of Nature] created using the [Branch of the Divine Tree] should have a better defensive effect against pure chakra attacks, right?"
Nara Langui took out a kunai and tapped it lightly on the wooden board a few times.
The collision of the two makes a very dull "dong dong" sound.
"The physical protection effect is also good, and it is not as fragile as imagined."
Nara Langui devoted himself wholeheartedly to the polishing and production of the [Nature Mask], and a rough and simple wooden mask gradually took shape under his hands.
"Considering the abilities I possess, the attribute of the first mask should be 'earth'!"
Nara Langui rubbed the wooden mask in his hand, and at the same time resonated with the [Chakra Crystal] on the index finger of his right hand, using the [Chakra Crystal] to continuously create unearthed chakra and inject it into the mask.
After charging for a period of time, the first mask was finally made successfully.
The panel pops up prompts almost at the same time.
[B-level ninja tool [Nature Mask] detected!]
[B-level ninja tool: nature mask]
[Description of the Ninja Tool: A wooden mask made of branches of the sacred tree and blended with chakra]
[Ninja Tool Effect: 1. [Nature Mask] contains a B-level earth-type chakra, which can be transferred to and used by oneself;
2. The earth-type chakra contained in [Nature Mask] can be converted into a B-level technique [Earth Release·Earth Spear] to defend oneself]
[Ninja Tool Review: Everyone is wearing a mask... I just made one myself]
"The first [Mask of Nature] produced, the item level is unexpectedly high!"
Nara Langui looked at the wooden mask in his hand. There was no extra pattern added to the surface of the log-colored mask, only two eye holes were carved out.
"I just don't know if [Shadow Clone] can be used."
A figure emerged from the shadow of Nara Langui, and he threw the [Mask of Nature] to the opponent casually.
But before he could say anything, [Shadow Clone] took the lead and slapped the [Mask of Nature] on his face.
"I'm no longer a human being! My dear!"
"I knew..."
Nara held the laurel on his forehead and sighed.
"Try the effect."
[Paint Eyes] appeared, and two shadow blades jumped out from his feet at high speed, tearing the air and slashing at the [Shadow Clone] in front of him.
【Shadow Sewing Technique】!
Ta! Ta!
The sharp shadow blade struck the [Shadow Clone], but it did not kill the clone composed of Yin Escape Chakra on the spot. It only made two crisp sounds.
Looking carefully, a dark and deep color appeared on the surface of [Shadow Clone] at some point, which is the characteristic of [Earth Release·Earth Spear] when used.
"[Shadow Clone] can use [Mask of Nature]!"
Nara Langui's eyes lit up.
"And the defense is very good!"
He is not using the [Shadow Seam Technique] with his true body at this time, his true body is still lying in the shadow!
[Shadow Clone], whose ability level is close to the elite Jonin level, used B-level ninjutsu [Shadow Seam Jutsu], but it did not break the defense of [Mask of Nature]. This effect is already very good.
"Give me the [Mask of Nature] and let me see how much chakra is left after it withstands such a blow."
Nara Langui took back the [Mask of Nature] thrown by [Shadow Clone] and silently sensed it.
"The chakra consumption is also acceptable. One mask can probably withstand five slashes of the same level."
Nara Langui knows that [Shadow Clone] can be transformed into reality and reality, and there is basically no need to worry about physical attacks.
But his body still needs to worry about this aspect.
Now that there is [Mask of Nature], the body's defense power has also soared.
As long as there is no targeted attack by Lei Dun, with the defensive power displayed by [Nature Mask], even if Nara Langui's body is lying in the shadow, there is no need to worry about being accidentally injured in the battle.
"Of course, [Mask of Nature] also has extraordinary significance for [Shadow Clone]."
"The [Shadow Clone] is created from the Yin Release Chakra, and can only use the Yin Release Ninjutsu of the original body. But now with the [Nature Mask], the [Shadow Clone] can also use the corresponding attribute Ninjutsu!"
Nara Langui originally wanted to strike while the iron was hot and create two more "nature masks" with "wind" and "fire" attributes.
But when he saw that the time was approaching midnight, he still followed his normal schedule and chose to go to bed.
But in his sleep, Nara Langui didn't notice the new message popping up on the panel.
[Within one natural day, you have not performed any strength-consuming exercise other than satisfying your own physiological needs...your [Strength] attribute has been enhanced! 】
【Strength +24】
[Strength:E-→D-]
Let’s learn about the concept of money in the ninja world.
Some readers do not know much about this aspect.
In the ninja world, [one tael = ten yen].
It is not the usual sense that one tael equals one yen.
In addition, about the Muten Polygonum drink that appears in this chapter.
Its price was not mentioned in the original work.
But there is a reference.
The Coke sold in Ichiraku Ramen shop costs 15 taels a bottle.

Furthermore, the connection between chakra test strips and the sacred tree is just a secondary setting in this book.
