213 Getting Killed Makes Me Stronger
🕑 Added 2025-12-21 06:14:00 +0000 UTCThe Land of Snow, located at the northernmost end of the continent, a country covered in ice and snow.
Kairen, his eyes bloodshot, activated Susanoo and entered the territory of the Land of Snow before dawn.
Kairen sensed his body's chakra rapidly draining, as well as intense pain in his eyes.
He turned into a puff of white smoke, slit his own throat with a blade within the smoke, and after reviving, turned to look at the three people and two bears beside him.
Wolon and Fenchu, the two bears, leaned against each other, lying inside Susanoo's diamond-shaped crystal, fast asleep.
Koyuki curled up in the arms of the Kazahana Daimyō, also sleeping.
The Kazahana Daimyō had dark circles under his eyes as well—after all, he hadn't slept all night.
In the end, they were just ordinary people, unable to be as abnormal as Kairen.
On the contrary, the delicate Miroku beside them was in good condition. Her light-purple eyes were still looking at Kairen. Noticing his gaze, she softly asked,
"What's wrong?!"
Kairen shook his head, kept Susanoo active, and flew downward, landing in a fir forest of ice.
He gently set everyone down, while releasing a wave of green chakra that covered the three people and two bears.
In an instant, a surge of spiritual vitality burst forth like a clear spring.
"Mmhh~~٩(๑´0´๑)۶"
Wolon and Fenchu stretched lazily, their bear heads turning toward Kairen, giving him meaningful looks, urging him to quickly offer up the bamboo shoots.
Kairen snapped his fingers, and a pile of bamboo shoots instantly stacked onto the two bear cubs.
"Wolon and Fenchu have generated 100 points of satisfaction toward you, and have decided not to defecate on your bed."
Yoho! That really deserves heartfelt thanks to you two!
The Kazahana Daimyō set Koyuki down. Koyuki, brimming with energy, ran across the snow, rolled up a few small snowballs, and threw them at Kairen.
Kairen raised his hand to block them, glancing at the little girl whose laughter chimed like bells. Such a lovely little angel—how arduous her future wandering life would be.
Therefore, as the savior, he had to save this child—not for mating rights, nor because he coveted Koyuki's body after she grew up.
He was sincerely determined to save this country!
Really!
Kairen put his hands on his hips and swept his gaze across this icy, snowy world. The temperature was extremely low; it had no effect on him, but Miroku beside him was having trouble enduring it.
Kairen was just about to use his warm embrace to dispel the chill from Miroku when she blocked him.
"Don't think about taking advantage of me. I know your thoughts perfectly well!"
"Miroku has generated 10 points of snark toward you, and thought to herself: This man's head is full of women—do I really want him to become the father of the next generation of high priestess?"
Kairen smiled. "I know your thoughts just as clearly."
A layer of smoke spread from his hands, and immediately a white cloak appeared. Kairen draped it over Miroku.
The furry warmth made the frail Miroku feel a bit more spirited.
"Miroku has generated 50 points of gratitude toward you, and patted your head: You actually have quite a few shining points!"
The Kazahana Daimyō walked over, his eyes fixed on Kairen, carrying a deep plea.
"Kairen-kun, you see…"
Kairen smiled at the Kazahana Daimyō. "Small problem!"
A pair of goshawk wings appeared out of thin air on his back, and he slowly flew toward the sky.
Kairen hovered in the air, almost covering a hundred li of land with a single glance.
The Land of Snow was a small country—but how small exactly?
Like South Korea.
Nationwide rain, nationwide fog…
Although several neighboring countries around the Land of Snow also had harsh environments, none were as extreme as the Land of Snow, which was covered in snow all year round.
Why was that?!
Kairen looked toward the massive ice mountain at the far end, whose frigid cold enveloped the entire Land of Snow.
Moreover, that ice mountain blocked the warm currents from the ocean, creating the Land of Snow's extreme environment.
After some thought, Kairen realized that using Wood Release to transform the Land of Snow would only treat the symptoms, not the root cause. Without a suitable environment, the wood would disappear after living for a period of time.
He decided to first destroy that ice mountain. With a thought, Kairen transformed himself into a fire dragon over a hundred meters tall.
"Roar—"
With a roar, he flew straight toward the great ice mountain.
The ice mountain, several thousand meters high, was extremely cold. Icy winds swirled around it; frozen air carried chilling glints, scraping across the body like countless sharp blades.
Kairen opened the dragon's mouth, and a fiery red energy sphere condensed within it.
"Ultra Giant Fire Gun!"
In the blink of an eye, he condensed a Fire Gun the size of a two-story building, containing extremely dense energy.
Kairen fired it fiercely toward the peak of the ice mountain. As the Ultra Giant Fire Gun struck, a massive explosion erupted.
"Rumble—"
After the explosion, the ice mountain was shaved down by a hundred meters in height.
Kairen took a look—if he wanted to level the entire ice mountain, he would at least have to work through the entire morning.
Kairen opened his curse mark, condensing senjutsu energy, preparing to increase the Fire Gun's power even further.
His curse mark was activated, but it remained stuck at the first-stage rune state.
The Land of Snow's atmosphere was extreme, with sparse vegetation and extremely scarce natural energy.
Kairen opened his system interface and saw that he had accumulated around 7,000 points of experience.
He flipped to the chakra exchange section and fixed his eyes on the Nine-Tails chakra listed there.
Kairen already possessed One-Tail chakra, but he was not satisfied—he needed even stronger chakra.
"System, exchange all experience points for Nine-Tails chakra!"
"Understood!"
"Host's Nine-Tails chakra exchange successful."
A vast power ignited within Kairen's heart. It was as if he had become a sports car with a super engine, armor powered by a nuclear reactor, and Tsunade's cucumbers…
A layer of Tailed Beast cloak bulged over the dragon's body. Then one tail grew out, followed by the second, the third, and finally the fourth!
Kairen directly obtained four Nine-Tails chakra tails—and they were a yin-yang unified Nine-Tails.
Although it couldn't compare to half of the Nine-Tails, the total chakra was still denser than that of the One-Tail Shukaku.
At this moment, with the Eight Gates opened to the fifth gate, stacked together with Nine-Tails chakra—
And combined with his own Asura Sage Body, he was infinitely close to a complete Nine-Tails.
More importantly, the Nine-Tails chakra had fused with him, rather than him becoming a Nine-Tails jinchūriki.
The meaning of the two was completely different. The latter was coexistence between tailed beast and human—people had to depend on the tailed beast's mood to obtain chakra.
But the former was on a higher level. The Nine-Tails chakra directly became Kairen's possession. Kairen owned perfect Nine-Tails chakra.
With a thought, the red chakra cloak turned golden, and the red dragon in the sky transformed into a golden dragon.
In the glittering golden mode of Nine-Tails chakra, Kairen returned to his original form.
At this moment, his entire body gleamed with gold, golden flames burning all around him—this was precisely the Golden Body Naruto mode.
It was the chakra mode Naruto obtained after overpowering the Nine-Tails, even more advanced than Sage Mode.
Kairen felt the vast power surging in his chest, as if he could punch straight through the planet. Golden wings appeared behind him.
Kairen flew toward even higher skies, eventually soaring directly into the stratosphere at twelve kilometers altitude.
Kairen prepared to use even greater kinetic potential to destroy the ice mountain of the Land of Snow.
The Asura Sage Body burned at full power.
"Eight Gates · Fifth Gate Open!"
Dense green energy stacked atop the golden Kairen. The light around his body grew brighter and brighter, until it finally condensed into a layer of pure light.
"Hundred Transformations!"
