Chapter 62: Senju Of The Forest Bloodline
His vision suddenly changed, and Yoru appeared in the Anbu Base from the previous full moon night.
The Fox Squad’s locker room had only him inside.
He sat on the bench in the middle of the locker room, tilting his head back to look at the bright moon outside the high side window.
This was the first time after crossing that he had lived to the next full moon, and he actively decided his own way of death.
Luckily, he met Senju Ka as an inside man, who brought him into the heart of the Senju Clan and let him meet Senju Rinki.
Senju Rinki’s strength was overwhelming, nearly instantly killing him.
Fortunately, he had instantly killed him, otherwise, if he had lingered half-dead until the next full moon, that would have been terrible.
As an Anbu going to assassinate the Senju Clan Head, all these had become faits accomplis; besides becoming a traitor ninja, there was no other choice.
If luck was bad, he wouldn’t even get to be a traitor ninja.
【Moon Arc activated!
The host has only one resurrection opportunity per month and will resurrect on the previous full moon night after death.
Reward one lucky draw opportunity:
1-A-rank Water Style·Water Dragon Jutsu（Beginner）;
2-Senju Super Strength secret jutsu;
3-Bloodline Limit·Senju of the Forest（Normal, can be purified）.】
Over the top; all three reward options were extremely useful, and he inevitably had to waste two.
Any one of these three abilities would be sufficient as the core ability for the next steps, supporting him up to jonin level.
The first reward, Water Style·Water Dragon Jutsu, was Second Hokage Tobirama’s improved Water Style, which could be released with just three hand seals.
Water Dragon Jutsu was a top-tier offensive Water Style ninjutsu, used by Second Hokage Tobirama Senju, Fifth Mizukage Mei Terumi, and others.
Even against Uchiha Madara, this jutsu had the power to fight.
This jutsu had a sufficiently large attack range and high attack intensity; with it, Fire Release ninjas would no longer pose a threat.
The second reward was Tsunade’s core ability, Super Strength.
This jutsu could maximally draw out the chakra in the body.
In taijutsu attack power, it was second only to Eight Inner Gates.
When trained to the limit, tearing Susanoo apart was no problem.
Both jutsu were very tempting, especially Super Strength, which had a higher ceiling.
Yoru’s attention focused on the third reward.
Bloodline Limit·Senju of the Forest（Normal, can be purified）?
The Senju Clan’s bloodline limit, with innately strong physique and massive chakra amount, and it could be purified.
If purified to a high level, there was a chance to awaken Wood Style.
His chakra natures were Earth Release and Water Style, like a bald man becoming a monk without needing to shave his head—it was perfect.
He didn’t know what purity Senju Rinki’s bloodline was at; his body probably could only handle normal Senju bloodline.
The system’s rewards were related to the strength of the killer who killed him and also to his body’s capacity.
Senju of the Forest bloodline—this was way too useful.
By seeking death against more Senju Clan members, maybe after a few times, he could draw Senju of the Forest bloodline again.
Then purify it, and the bloodline power would grow stronger and stronger.
After hesitating again and again, Yoru chose the reward with the highest ceiling.
Senju of the Forest bloodline, which might later turn into Sage of Six Paths body—highest ceiling.
After selecting this option, Yoru suddenly felt hot all over, with heat rapidly rising from his head and inside his collar.
His skin was scorching hot, clothes sticking to his skin, and even slight friction brought intense pain.
He quickly took off his clothes.
Every cell in his body was groaning; his physique had undergone a fundamental change.
Each cell became more active, every muscle more powerful, every ligament more resilient.
He heard his own heartbeat; even his internal organs had grown stronger.
His chakra amount was visibly increasing at a speed the eye could see.
The Senju of the Forest clan all had massive chakra amounts.
Half an hour later, Yoru’s body slowly stabilized, and he quickly checked his own panel.
【Host status:
Chakra Amount: 5 times elite chunin level.
Chakra Nature: Earth, Water, Yang.
Bloodline Limit: Senju of the Forest（Normal）.
Ninjutsu: Water Style·Water Wall Jutsu, Earth Release·Earth Clone, etc.
Taijutsu: Beginner-level Body Flicker Technique, beginner-level Cloud Style Sword Technique, etc.
Sealing Jutsu: Karma Seal of Retribution, etc.
Special abilities: Reflex（second breakthrough）, Natural Chakra Growth.】
His original chakra amount was 9 times chunin level.
Elite chunin level chakra amount was 5 times chunin level.
Gaining normal Senju of the Forest bloodline actually increased his chakra amount so much, to 5 times elite chunin level.
The chakra increase came from the increase in physical energy.
His muscles were more compact, and his taijutsu had further strengthened.
This feeling of being filled with power all over was truly great.
What surprised Yoru even more were his chakra nature changes and special abilities.
In terms of chakra nature, he had gained Yang nature.
Yang nature wasn’t useful in the early ninja stages, but later on, it might affect Six Paths level abilities.
He had actually gained an extra special ability!
Natural Chakra Growth!
That meant Yoru’s chakra would naturally grow from now on, until reaching the bloodline’s limit.
He had encountered some chakra amount boosting options before, but luckily didn’t choose them.
Choosing three chakra amount boosts wouldn’t compare to a fundamental physique upgrade.
The Senju Clan was truly born with a silver spoon; an ordinary bloodline power brought such a massive boost.
The locker room door suddenly opened.
Purple Cat walked into the locker room and was surprised to see the nearly naked Fox.
Purple Cat said with ill intent: “Ah? Are you waiting for me? So eager? Stripped yourself naked first?”
Purple Cat walked over, Anbu gear piece by piece falling at her feet, until her jade feet were revealed.
“How come your body seems even better···”
Half an hour later, Purple Cat started begging for mercy.
“Not only has your body improved, why has your stamina improved too?”
One hour later.
Purple Cat’s legs weakly slid down from Fox’s waist, unable to even stand steadily.
If not for Fox supporting her slim waist, she almost fell.
“Captain, new team members are coming soon; we can’t be this unrestrained anymore.”
“No problem; with Anbu’s casualty rate, they’ll be gone soon.”
Purple Cat thought to herself that Fox Captain truly had a heart of iron.
Then she thought, maybe she herself would die on some mission.
Seeing Purple Cat’s eyes dim, Yoru said: “Don’t worry, I’ve gotten stronger and have the spare capacity to protect you.”
Previously, with insufficient strength, he couldn’t take care of those around him; as his strength grew, Yoru could do more.
“Thank you, Captain.”
Yoru had returned to a month ago; many things hadn’t happened yet, the squad hadn’t been rebuilt, and Senju Ka and others hadn’t died.
Putting on his clothes, Yoru walked slowly through the Anbu Base wearing his mask.
He came to the mission records room and started looking at Kurozaru Squad’s mission records.
After Kurozaru entered Anbu, he carried out many missions, but there were no mentions related to Hashirama Cells.
Hashirama Cells were in Danzo’s hands; he didn’t know when he could get Hashirama Cells.
With normal Senju of the Forest bloodline, if he could obtain Hashirama Cells, there was a certain probability of gaining Wood Style.
Hashirama Cells plus Senju bloodline—the floor was another Yamato, and the ceiling was hard to say.
Yoru suddenly thought of Orochimaru.
After Nawaki’s death, Orochimaru began frantically conducting experiments, seeking the secret of immortality.
Maybe he had to wait until that phase for Danzo to bring out Hashirama Cells.
