No power exists without roots or sources. After the Ten-Tails was resurrected, the first thing it did was to use the Descent of God and the World of Trees, combined with the Infinite Tsukuyomi to harvest the chakra of the Ninja World for its own use, which is why it became so powerful.

Although the devout faith of mankind can quickly catalyze the Xishuixiang with the properties of the Outer Path Demon Statue fragments, the time is still too tight. The upcoming Fourth Ninja World War does not leave Mizuki much time to accumulate strength.

Now Xishuixiang's ability to absorb chakra is much stronger than that of the half-dead Outer Path Demon Statue fragment.

If you want to improve your strength quickly, you can use special methods to absorb natural energy without restraint.

But Mizuki didn't even dare to imagine the consequences of doing so. Even the sacred tree had to go through countless years and grow up before it dared to harvest natural energy and chakra unscrupulously. As a result, it was still sealed by the Six Paths Sage who suddenly appeared. It was resurrected again, but was solved by Uchiha Sasuke and Uzumaki Naruto together.

If Shuimu dared to do so, he would either be swallowed by natural energy, or be struck to death like the immortals who were undergoing tribulation by the nine-day thunder tribulation... or some other calamity, leaving nothing behind.

If you don't have the physique and yet dare to blatantly rob the ninja world of its natural energy, you're courting death.

As for the remaining methods, you can actually fight the rich and divide the land. The fattest one is naturally the Outer Path Demon Statue that seals the tailed beast in Uchiha Obito's hands. Unfortunately, Mizuki is not its opponent for the time being.

The only other tailed beasts that can be attacked are those that have not yet been captured by the Akatsuki organization.

The eight-tailed Gyu-ki, the nine-tailed Kurama, the six-tailed Rhino-hound, and the half-tailed Seven-tailed Shigeaki.

Of course it was not feasible to kill the Chuuriki. The only thing that could make Mizuki feel at ease was the Yin Nine-Tails, which was in the belly of the Grim Reaper together with the Shikigami because of the Shikigami Fūjin used by the Fourth Hokage Minato Namikaze.

Kouji looked at the hesitant Mizuki and suddenly said:

"Have you forgotten Takuma? Inside him, there is the powerful Shukaku!"

"You're right. This is also a breakthrough point. However, half of Shukaku's power plus half of the Nine-Tails doesn't seem to be enough."

Moreover, there are great risks in doing so, especially with the Yin Nine-Tails, which may be the key to saving Uzumaki Naruto's life. If it is used by Mizuki in advance, he may really be doomed. He and Uchiha Sasuke cannot join forces to seal Kaguya Otsutsuki. In the end, Mizuki has to do it himself, and that will be a big trouble.

"Let's put this matter aside for now. There's no need to rush. Let's see what happens first."

If there is another huge source of chakra, it is the huge Rinnegan on the moon that is formed by combining the Byakugan of the Otsutsuki clan. This huge source of power that can push the moon to crash into the ninja world is definitely not in vain. If you can get it, there will be no worries about lack of power.

However, this was just Mizuki's casual thought. If Mizuki could obtain a gigantic Rinnegan, it would not be impossible for him to defeat the Ten-Tails head-on, and he wouldn't have to go to so much trouble to make so many back-up plans.

As for Mizuki's crazy idea of ​​using the infinite chakra of the resurrected ninjas from the Impure World Reincarnation to continuously provide power, it ultimately failed.

Mizuki was greatly disappointed that Xishuixiang had no reaction to the chakra provided by the Impure World Body.

In fact, it is understandable that the source of the ability to absorb chakra power is the sacred tree, which can only harvest the natural energy and chakra of the ninja world.

The source of power used by the Impure World Reincarnation is not inseparable from the Pure Land and the Ninja World.

Creatures from other worlds often come to the ninja world, and the most concentrated manifestation of this is summoning magic.

Not only are there three sacred places for summoning beasts that originally belonged to the Ninja World, but there are also creatures that do not belong to the Ninja World at all. For example, in the original work, Uchiha Sasuke's summoning giant eagle Garda is an out-of-this-world creature that is not affected by the Infinite Tsukuyomi at all.

Similar to this are the creatures that are brought out from the animal realm through spiritual communication.

Shuimu knew that the Impure Earth Body was not affected by the power of the sacred tree, but he still had a chance in his mind, but it turned out that he was overthinking.

The soul of Pure Land is not affected by the sacred tree. Whether it is always like this, or the ninja world is about to collapse and Pure Land has split from the ninja world, or the Six Paths Sage has done something, Mizuki does not know for the time being. However, the idea of ​​cultivating Xi Shuixiang by taking shortcuts has failed.

"Actually, there's no point in us being anxious!"

Gongzhi stopped his hands from preparing for the play.

"With our several physical clones and the faith power provided by the Rain Country believers, we have already exceeded the speed of Xishuixiang's absorption. After all, this is only cultivated from the incomplete part of the Ten-Tails. It is not like the Infinite Tsukuyomi that can quickly drain the chakra of the entire ninja world. Even if we get the tailed beasts now, we can't seal them. The Akatsuki organization used the Phantom Dragon Nine Sealings to seal the nine tailed beasts, and we haven't even developed a way to quickly seal the tailed beasts' chakra. It would be more convenient for Xishuixiang to absorb the devout faith power of the Rain Country believers instead of relying on Xishuixiang's instinctive absorption."

"That is to say, even if there is a large amount of high-quality chakra, it is difficult to absorb and will cause indigestion?"

"Yes!"

Hearing Kouji's answer, Mizuki couldn't help but stroke his forehead.

"Why was Kaguya Otsutsuki able to find a loophole to steal the fruit of the sacred tree? This kind of grand strategy involving the entire world cannot be handled with a little cleverness in a short period of time. It's like planting crops. Sowing seeds, removing insects, watering, caring, growing, blooming, bearing fruits, and harvesting. Each step requires a lot of time accumulation, and this cycle is calculated in hundreds or thousands of years. With the lifespan of ordinary humans, they simply can't wait that long. The Otsutsuki clan and humans are not creatures on the same level at all. The degree of evolution is too far apart."

Of course, this also shows that Shuimu is on the right track. By clearing away the fog of details, he has already glimpsed the most real and cruel trajectory of this world.

There is no trickery. Under the overwhelming force of the trend, any attempt to stop it is futile. Those who cannot see through this truth are all poor creatures struggling in the clutches of fate.

However, Mizuki is not without a chance. The ninja world is like a group of barbarians still in the primitive age of slash-and-burn agriculture, who suddenly encounter plunderers who drive military trains to harvest resources. The Six Paths Sage is the descendant of colonists who have broken away from the original civilization, but his descendants are not very good at using the few hot weapons they inherited.

Shuimu is an awakened person who stole a small batch of arms and prepared to "do big things" despite the danger of being attacked from both inside and outside. Although there is a big gap in absolute strength, at least he has weapons to fight on the same level.
