Red sand dust

On the ocean far away from the coastline in the south of the Kingdom of Wind, a green armored giant flapped its wings and flew close to the water. The air vibration waves it aroused made the water splash.

In mid-air, the petite Jin was writing on the notepad, registering the experimental data below one by one, and looking at the watch from time to time to assess the other party's condition.

After a long time, Yukimaru, who looked exhausted, released the customized colonization suit - Fenfu Teapot's aroused state, and carefully landed on a luxurious ground-effect watercraft. It was made by Jin with the help of several sisters. The personal "toy" I created can come in handy at this time, and it's just the right time.

Yun Danfeng Qingjin sat leisurely opposite Youguimaru, who was so tired that his forehead was sweating, and shook his head slightly:

"Even with my help, you can only control so much time, and your physique is still a bit weak!"

"I...will work hard to eat and grow up soon!"

Yukimaru's face turned slightly red.

Being young is not an excuse. There are many children with good talents. Yuukimaru is not a particularly outstanding one, and his level of hard work is not bad, but his overall qualifications are not top-notch, and his progress is not slow, but there is still a gap between what he expected. .

If Yuukimaru hadn't had a special talent for controlling tailed beasts, Daimaru wouldn't have "rented" the precious custom-made breeding equipment to him, even if he had to bear a loan for nearly forty years.

As for Yuukimaru being the second-level contractor, it was a last resort after careful consideration.

An era has passed, and it is rare for geniuses to emerge in large numbers. Geniuses like Uchiha Sasuke, Uzumaki Naruto, and Hyuga Neji are too difficult to find. Even the second-tier Temari and Kankuro are popular.

"Don't be too nervous. I don't mean to blame you. I just hope you understand that the price you bear has made everyone have high expectations for you!"

Jin sighed inaudibly,

"After you go back, take a good rest first, and don't relax in your ninja school studies. Only by laying a solid foundation can you have a bright future..."

Jin was very appreciative of Yukimaru's decision to give up further internship and study and instead go back to the ninja school to make up for his shortcomings. Although this little guy is young, his character is still remarkable.

Innate qualifications and acquired resources can be supplemented by manpower. Mindfulness and the way you conduct yourself are the most precious things.

Yukimaru, who experienced ups and downs as a child, was not crushed by the unpredictable fate, nor did he blame others. He was able to maintain his innocence despite many turmoils, which is indeed rare.

Compared with those precocious mediocre people, the nobility of the soul is the cornerstone for reaching the top.

Nowadays, what Daimaru values ​​​​is not those ninjas who can be trained in batches through education, but the "own people" who can truly stand alone and turn the tide at critical moments.

"Talents are always the most precious resource!" 』

After escorting Yukimaru back to the village, Jin came to the "Cradle Garden" on the back side of the moon. It was now at the aphelion, completely in the shadow where the sun's rays could not reach.

The instantaneous temperature outside was already close to minus 200 degrees. Half a day ago, it was a sweltering hell above 150 degrees.

In such an environment where hot and cold alternate rapidly, it is theoretically impossible for normal life to be born.

Fortunately, the "Cradle Garden" is quite special. It is a fantasy space made of virtual reality. Coupled with the giant reincarnation eye's adjustment force field and the suppression of the double Sara trees, it buffers the violent vibrations caused by changes in the outside world, allowing this place to maintain a peaceful atmosphere. It looks like a paradise.

At this moment, Daimaru was sitting cross-legged between two sacred tree seedlings with swaying crowns, quietly sorting out the gathered chaotic chakra, guiding it into the two sacred tree seedlings, and stabilizing the disturbance in the infinite Tsukuyomi space.

"came back?"

"Yes, Father!"

Jin walked forward curiously and looked at Daiwan, who was exuding strong natural energy fluctuations.

"Is it tiring to sort out the energy environment?"

"It's okay, I'm just feeling a little emotional and thinking about something!"

Daimaru responded with a smile,

"It takes time to deal with it slowly, and there is no way to take advantage of it! I have done too many lazy things in the past, and in the end I have to make up for it one by one with profits!"

Fortunately, the Fourth Ninja War has ended, and the "saviors" have successfully eliminated the crisis of world destruction, and Daimaru has enough time to "pay off his debt" slowly.

"Even Father finds it difficult. It doesn't look easy!"

"Of course!"

Daimaru touched Jin's little head lovingly,

"In the past, I was still too optimistic! The dream space created by the Blood Successor Snare - Infinite Tsukuyomi, although it was because the sacred tree seedlings seized control, it was not because Uzumaki Naruto and Uchiha Sasuke lifted the technique. Disappear, but if the owner of the dream space dies, it will be a bit troublesome..."

"ah……"

Jin was suddenly startled and reacted immediately,

"Humans themselves are a very fragile race, and their lifespan is limited. It is not surprising to die anytime!"

"yes!"

Daimaru nodded slightly and sighed,

"If the original owner dies, no matter how much energy support the sacred tree sapling provides, its core will be gone, and the dream space will naturally collapse and disappear, so..."

Daimaru had to take another approach to remedy the situation, replacing it with an autonomous life form with limited simulation. Its energy support had to be supplemented by the operator...that is, Daimaru.

"According to my estimation, the overall mortality rate of humans in the ninja world reaches six thousandths per year. In other words, every month, the consumption of maintaining the illusion space will increase by five thousandths..."

Although this ratio is not high, if you think about it carefully, you will understand that the pressure on Daimaru will be increasing. If there is no additional energy supplement, Daimaru himself will be dragged down sooner or later, which is equivalent to the consumption of an infinite Tsukuyomi, or even bigger.

In that case, so much of the illusion space that Daimaru worked so hard to capture would not only not be a help, but would become an overwhelming burden!

If that's the case, Daimaru won't be able to support the complete digestion of these fantasy spaces and turn losses into profits.

"So, father will finally have to find foreign aid?"

"Um!"

Facing Jin's probing questions, Daimaru had to admit honestly,

"It's because I didn't think carefully. I didn't even consider such a simple variable! Human beings are a short-lived species. If there are no accidents, they will decline sooner or later!"

When considering strategies, they are all measured according to the level of the Ten-Tails Jinchuuriki, at least Uchiha Sasuke and Uzumaki Naruto, but the general public who have the greatest influence are ignored.

There are so many people in the ninja world. It is impossible that they are all young men in their prime. They have passed their prime and are about to reach the end of their lives. There are definitely many people like Chiyo, Ebizo, Onoki and others. With their strength, if nothing unexpected happens, , after all, there are only a few elderly people who can persist for many years.

The average life span of the ninja world is less than sixty years old. According to this standard, if you think about it, you will understand that there are many people who die in the ninja world every day, and there are already many people who die accidentally.

In view of this, Daimaru must find more support, that is, chakra or natural energy, to allow the sacred tree to grow quickly and reduce his burden.

The ninja world has just been ravaged by Uchiha Madara and Otsutsuki Kaguya, and there is not much room for looting. They can only find ways at the ninja level to let more people become Daimaru's "offline" and provide more investigation. Carat, until these fantasy spaces and the "cradle garden" achieve a basic balance.

For this reason, Daimaru also made a lot of preparations. He placed several different spaces in the Heavenly Control at Lagrange points to form a protective shield surrounding the planets of the ninja world, like an open bow and arrow, with the tip pointed at The void universe far away from the sun.

In this stable system, Daimaru used the giant reincarnation eye and the divine space created by Uchiha Obito's Mangekyō Sharingan, allowing these illusory spaces to be naturally absorbed into the dark side of reality and reality.

"The so-called Shenwei can be understood as the residence of God and the name of God himself. However, the current Shenwei space is only a semi-finished product and cannot bear the heavy burden. Therefore, I have to make it worthy of the name. At least, it must be shared with me. Take some pressure!"

"What father means is..."

Jin asked very curiously, and Daimaru replied with a hint:

"It is too difficult to give birth to a god naturally, so we have to use some tricks! Kaguya Ōtsutsuki ate the fruit of the sacred tree and gave birth to brothers Ōtsutsuki Hagoromo and Ōtsutsuki Hamura. The sacred tree in our hands Although the seedlings have grown a lot, they are still early in the maturity stage and far from the time to bloom and bear fruit, but..."

"Is there any way to speed up ripening?"

Having said this, Daimaru smiled mysteriously:

"What kind of place is this? The place called 'Cradle Garden' is a holy place where all things thrive and cultivate the spiritual beings of heaven and earth - artificial elves. Since the seedlings of the sacred tree have been assimilated into one of its components, they naturally have similar functions. I can’t make the immature sacred tree saplings bear fruit, why can’t I let them cultivate a pair of artificial elves in advance instead?”

"Eh?"

Daimaru's words made Jin's eyes light up and he reacted immediately.

"I won't be the youngest sister soon? Great!"

Due to insufficient overall growth, the resources in the "Cradle Garden" have been insufficient to continue cultivating new "artificial elves" since Jin was born.

Things are different now. Daimaru intends to use the special characteristics of the sacred tree seedlings to breed two "artificial elves" with special missions in advance. It is really possible to succeed.

"Because they were born to control the infinite Tsukuyomi illusion space, I decided to induce them to master the special abilities of sleep and dreams respectively, reducing my burden of sorting and controlling them!"

These tasks can be done by other "artificial elf" sisters, but after all, they are not professional and the efficiency is relatively low. The two sisters who will be born soon are experts in this field.

Hibiscus, who was full of curiosity, couldn't wait any longer. When she reached the top of the two sacred trees, she saw that in the center wrapped by the core green leaves, wisps of light penetrated the obstacles and illuminated the surroundings.

Jin, who clearly felt the little life inside her, was overjoyed.

"Father, how long will it take for them to be born? I must let them see me first when they open their eyes..."

Jin, who has been a sister for a long time and is looking forward to becoming a sister, can't wait to say hello to the two little lives.

Daimaru laughed and responded:

"You are too impatient. It will take at least three months. If things don't go well, it will take half a year! After all, it is an artificial life with a special mission... In fact, it is not artificial, but a product that came into being!"

After all, the "Cradle Garden" is also a semi-independent space. When needed, the power of fate will naturally give birth to the needed individuals.

Although Destiny in the Dark is still very weak and far from as powerful as the ninja world, with the help of Daimaru, he can still do a lot of things.

"So long!"

Hearing this, Jin was disappointed. Fortunately, she was also an optimistic child. She quickly adjusted her mood and said happily,

"Hopefully two cute little guys!"

"Your sisters were also looking forward to your birth! And your mother Saya, she put down all the very important experiments for you, just to cultivate a little guy who is close to her, and the result..."

"Mother is also very nice, but it's just not as fun as being with father, like that Yuukimaru..."

"What's up with him?"

"It's strange! I don't think he is purely human..."

Jin thought for a moment and then replied,

"Father once said that the so-called pupil power of the Mangekyo Sharingan is just the product of the fusion of distorted mental power and life energy. Every time the pupil technique of the Mangekyo Sharingan is used or Susanoo is used, it is consumed. Therefore, the stronger the Uchiha, the more they use the power of the eyes, the shorter their life. Yukimaru can control the power of the tailed beast, which is actually somewhat similar. He is also wasting his own life to use it. Develop special abilities..."

"This is normal. Strength that exceeds the normal level always comes with a huge price, unless it can be supplemented in other areas..."

Daimaru has known about this for a long time. How can there be such a cheap thing in the world, where he can freely use secret techniques beyond his own endurance without any trouble?

Yukimaru's special ability is actually overdrawing his future.

Of course, he is still very young now, and it will be a long time before these hidden dangers are exposed until he is old.

To be blunt, I don’t know how many people in the ninja world are willing to trade their lifespan for benefits. Having that ability is a rare talent.

"Different!"

Jin said with great certainty,

"Although Yuukimaru is also consuming his own lifespan, he has a very special ability. He can absorb part of the strange energy in the natural energy in a place with abundant water and grass, and effectively make up for the loss of life force. The side effects of using his special ability are very serious. Small……"

"Hmm? Naturally gifted with longevity... This is rare and worth studying!"

Daimaru rubbed his chin. Grandfather's body was already showing some signs of failure. He had to make up for it. It would also be a good thing for his relatives and friends around him to be able to live longer without future troubles.

"Let's talk about these things later. We are still young and have plenty of time to take our time. Now, there are more important things..."

A long time ago, Daimaru hinted that after the last battle, he would return to his hometown to get married and live a peaceful and peaceful Suna ninja.

Although there is no explicit commitment, many people still vaguely feel this meaning.

Now that the Fourth Ninja War has come to an end, it's time for some things to be fulfilled.

As for the disasters expected in the future, that is another story. Maybe someone else will emerge to turn the tide.

Danger and opportunity go hand in hand, and Daimaru has enough time to wait without having to risk going to Konoha Village to take the Chunin Exam like he did a few years ago.
