Konoha starts from the root

Time flies by like a flash, and in the blink of an eye, more than two months have passed.

Time came to August of Konoha 60 years.

As the New Year approaches, the temperature begins to drop. After all, Ghost World Island is just a small island in the sea, so the changes are extremely obvious.

Today, the island's plants are withering and animals are dormant, making it look particularly desolate.

No one would have thought that there was a large underground base inside this small island.

And in this base, an experiment has come to an end.

I saw a young man who looked about 20 years old sitting cross-legged in the middle of the room.

Surrounding him were densely packed spell seals, which made people dizzy just by looking at them. They were extremely complicated.

Clearly, what's about to happen here is anything but simple.

If ordinary people were in it, they would feel timid no matter what, but this young man didn't have the slightest bit of fear. His eyes were cold and there was no other suitable word to describe them other than deathly silence.

At this moment, a plain and indifferent voice sounded: "Are you ready?"

It was Bai Ye who spoke.

At this time, he was standing in front of the young man.

Seeing the other party nodding, Bai Ye immediately formed a seal with his hands, and three seconds later, he fiercely pressed his right hand on his forehead.

Immediately, the surrounding curse seals seemed to come alive, climbing up the young man's body one after another, along his skin, and spread to Bai Ye's palm.

As time passed by, the number of curse seals around him continued to decrease, but the young man seemed to be in great pain. His eyes were bloodshot, blood overflowed from his nose and the corners of his mouth, and his expression was even more ferocious. pole.

Even so, he still tried his best to remain still, and his willpower could not be described as tenacious.

Just when the last bit of the curse seal technique was gathered in his palm, Bai Ye's eyes suddenly flashed with a bright silver light, and then the young man under his palm closed his eyes and fainted.

Seeing this scene, Bai Ye, instead of being anxious, showed a little joy.

There was no other reason, just because a faint silver pattern appeared between the other person's eyebrows.

It can be seen that this pattern consists of three parts. The outermost part is an equilateral triangle, the middle part is a circle tangent to it, and the center is a small dot.

This pattern is nothing else, it is the improved Soul Locking Curse Seal.

After more than two months of research and experiments, and after sacrificing the lives of more than a dozen experimental subjects, he finally succeeded.

Of course, this also includes the reference to the "Earth Curse Seal" on Ukon's body, and the study of the "Caged Bird Curse Seal" on the fox.

This fox is the "root" member of the Hyuga branch that Bai Ye met at the beginning of his time travel.

In order to speed up the research progress and to facilitate the capture of experimental subjects, Baiye sent a message to Danzo Shimura to order Fox to bring two classes, a total of nine "root" ninjas, here.

In the previous experiment, two 'root' ninjas had unfortunately died.

In other words, adding numbers [-] to [-], there are now ten "root" ninjas on Ghost World Island.

He planned to apply the improved soul-locking curse seal to these people first.

With the first success, when the soul-locking curse seal is cast again, there is no need to depict such a complicated curse seal technique.

The reason why I did this just now was just to detect problems in the experiment in time.

When Shiroye studied Orochimaru's 'Earth Curse Seal' and the Hinata family's 'Caged Bird Curse Seal', he also used his knowledge of sealing techniques to expand them as much as possible, and then analyzed the types, functions and distribution of those techniques. Follow the rules, and then perfect and improve your own soul-locking curse seal.

It can be said that each curse seal is compressed by complex spells, and generally only ninjas who fully understand its internal structure can perform it.

Of course, it doesn't mean that you can unfold a certain curse seal, it means that you can break them.

This is just the first step in cracking it, and it only shows that your level is pretty good.

Unfolding a curse seal relies on a person's knowledge reserve, and everyone's understanding is different. The spell seal technique after unfolding is also different, and of course it is impossible to be exactly the same as the curse seal itself.

Therefore, it is not a simple matter to crack a complex curse seal.

In fact, the curse seal technique is quite common in the ninja world. For example, the curse seal applied to ANBU ninjas that can destroy corpses and eliminate traces is an example.

However, most of the curse seals are relatively simple and have a single function. They are not as complicated as Bai Ye's soul-locking curse seal.

Nowadays, the improved soul-locking curse seal is not only applied to the target's body, but also acts on the target's soul. Compared with before, the binding force on the target can be said to be completely different.

In essence, it is no less inferior to Orochimaru's curse seal technique and the Hinata family's caged bird.

Similarly, his soul-locking curse seal also has its own characteristics, that is, it can be integrated with the phantom body.

For example, the soul-locking seal on the "root" ninja in front of you is the result of merging with the phantom body.

Generally, the Soul Locking Curse Seal is black, and will only turn silver when fused with the Phantom Body.

This soul-locking curse seal contains a ray of Bai Ye's spiritual will, which can not only observe and sense the surrounding environment, but also control the host's body when necessary.

In this way, the phantom body finally has a use again.

Since Aoki's soul was erased by him, not only has the phantom body lost its former flexibility, but it can no longer last for too long. Considering his current strength, it is considered useless.

Of course, there is also good news, that is, he can split into multiple phantom bodies at the same time.

However, this will weaken his mental strength and make him less resistant to illusions.

However, this does not have much impact on him who has a soul mask.

Even so, Bai Ye does not intend to separate too many phantom bodies. After all, the soul mask is just a foreign object. If it does not block the attack, big problems will occur.

In addition, the improved soul-locking curse seal has a closer connection with Bai Ye, which is a great improvement for him.

As for the reason, he must mention the S-level soul ninjutsu and spiritual transformation technique that he learned two months ago.

Generally speaking, if you want to use spiritual transformation to attack a target, you first need to determine the target's location. However, this is in obvious contradiction with the fact that the main body cannot move after using spiritual transformation.

Kato Dan was like this at the beginning. Every time he used the spiritual technique, he was not far from the battlefield. Although there were people around him to protect him, something went wrong after all and he was accidentally attacked and died.

Unless you can know the chakra characteristics of the target in advance, you can only get closer to the target.

Normally, long-distance perception ninjutsu will have this limitation if it wants to determine the location of a specific target.

For example, the third-generation Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen's telescope technique, and Kagura's inner eye of Karin, both need to master the chakra characteristics of the target in advance, otherwise they will not be able to find the target accurately.

The same goes for the spiritual art that can sense souls from a distance.

But this is not a problem for Bai Ye, because he can completely record the target's chakra characteristics through the silver soul-locking curse seal, and then convey it to the main body, and finally the main body attacks and kills from a distance.

In this way, his body will be difficult to be threatened.

With the cooperation of the soul-locking curse seal, the S-level soul ninjutsu of spiritual transformation will surely exert unimaginable power in his hands.
