Chapter 276: The Power of Senjutsu

"No, this is impossible... I refuse to believe it!"

Realizing that the immense and violent natural energy around him was still relentlessly invading his body, Yu couldn't help but grit his teeth, embracing the idea of risking everything for a chance at survival. Instantly, he burst out with all of his Chakra.

Then, following the method taught by Tagitsuhime just now, he mobilized the vast Chakra within his body, attempting to forcefully merge them with the abundant natural energy invading his body.

At first, the Chakra composed of physical and spiritual energy didn't repel each other with the natural energy, but there was no driving force for them to merge either. Instead, they were like two strangers who never interacted, maintaining their independence.

However, with Yu's almost perfect Chakra control gradually honed, the two forces seemed to slowly become acquainted, gradually accepting each other and starting to merge together to create a balance.

Gradually, the serpentine features on Yu's body began to fade away, his tail and the horns on his head disappeared without a trace, and his appearance finally returned to its original state.

"This kid... actually managed to control it?!"

Seeing Yu, who was on the brink of turning into a stone statue, being pulled back from the brink of death, and releasing such a massive Chakra to forcefully establish balance with the violent natural energy, Tagitsuhime beside him couldn't help but widen her eyes in astonishment.

"He established balance with the natural energy so quickly... and the amount of this Chakra..."

Indeed, in order to establish balance with the raging natural energy continuously pouring into his body, Yu had released all the hidden Chakra stored within himself.

Gradually, a visible layer of Chakra formed on the surface of his body, just like a Jinchuriki entering their Tailed Beast Transformation state, making it evident that the amount of Chakra present in Yu at this moment had reached an immense level.

Unaware of the passing of time during his training, sitting at the edge of the Dragon Transformation Pool, Yu didn't know how long he had been striving to merge, finally giving birth to a huge new energy within his body.

It seemed to retain the respective characteristics of Chakra and natural energy, but it also seemed somewhat different, possessing a higher quality than both types of energy. Carefully sensing this new energy, beneath its calm exterior, Yu could fully feel the wild power it contained.

So, this is Senjutsu Chakra...

Extracting it sure is troublesome...

Yu opened his eyes, and on his fair face, dark purple eerie patterns had already emerged, with even a shade of dark purple eyeshadow around his eyes.

"This... This is Sage Mode!!"

"How is this possible! You've actually succeeded in mastering it so quickly?!"

Tagitsuhime, who had been observing Yu closely from not far away as he sat cross-legged, was now shocked to the point of standing up at the sight of the dark purple patterns and eyeshadow appearing on Yu's face, along with the mysterious aura continuously emanating from him.

"So... I guess this can be considered a success..."

"How long have I been training here?"

Standing up, Yu leaned over the surface of the Dragon Transformation Pool, finally seeing clearly the changes happening on his face reflected on the water's surface.

Like Jiraiya, Naruto Uzumaki, Yakushi Kabuto, and even Senju Hashirama, whose Sage Mode centered around their eyes and forehead, Yu's Sage Mode concentrated around his eyes and forehead, as if a dark purple flame was rising, constantly emitting a mysterious and eerie aura.

"Only three days have passed..."

"How could you have mastered Sage Mode so quickly?!"

However, Tagitsuhime was clearly still immersed in the shocking fact that Yu had managed to master Sage Mode so quickly. She muttered incredulously, "In the past, there have been only a few Ninja who successfully mastered Sage Mode, and they all took years to accomplish it..."

"But this guy... no wonder the White Snake Sage said he had the aura of a 'dragon' around him. So that's it... It seems this guy is definitely not an ordinary Ninja..."

"Three days? Has it really been that long already..."

Upon hearing Tagitsuhime mention that three days had passed since he started training Sage Mode, Yu couldn't help but look startled. He then clenched his fist, feeling the Senjutsu Chakra surging within him like a roaring tide, noticing a significant increase in his physical strength compared to before.

"Let's see if the power of Ninjutsu has been enhanced..."

With this thought in mind, Yu condensed the newly refined Senjutsu Chakra in his palm to form a Rasengan.

Countless blue and white Chakra radiance emitted from Yu's palm, and in an instant, a Vanishing Rasengan the size of two basketballs had appeared in his hand, the high-density rotating Chakra even causing a stinging sensation on his cheeks.

"It's huge! The power has indeed increased!!"

Seeing the Rasengan, powered by Senjutsu Chakra, become so massive, Yu's mind raced with excitement, prompting him to inject his Kekkei Genkai Storm Release's Chakra Nature Transformation into it.

Sage Art: Storm Release Hard Vortex Water Blade!!

With Senjutsu Chakra combined with the Kekkei Genkai Storm Release Nature Transformation, the dazzling radiance emanating from Yu's hand almost blinded Tagitsuhime's eyes beside him.

Only to witness the raging thunder and lightning, which annihilates everything, seemingly tamed into a soft thunderous plasma in Yu's hand, changing form to form a thunderous spear radiating a destructive aura from top to bottom. It continuously manifested a terrifying power far exceeding that of S-rank Ninjutsu.

"This kind of exaggerated technique..."

"You aren't thinking of..."

Seeing Yu gradually raising the thunderous spear condensed in his hand, Tagitsuhime suddenly had a bad premonition.

Boom!!

Just as Tagitsuhime was about to speak to stop him, Yu had already thrown the dazzling thunderous spear in his hand towards the rocky forest in the distance.

As if an atomic bomb had exploded, an extremely dazzling laser and shockwave blinded both Yu and Tagitsuhime, unable to open their eyes, as everything was engulfed by the terrifying radiance.

After the dust settled, Yu and Tagitsuhime looked out, only to see the entire rocky forest in the distance leveled to the ground, with a whole section seemingly vanished into thin air as if evaporated from the earth.

"Damn you! Do you realize you almost destroyed the Dragon Transformation Pool?!" Seeing the distant ruins almost reaching the Dragon Transformation Pool here, Tagitsuhime beside him nearly jumped up. "How am I supposed to explain this to the White Snake Sage when I go back?!"

"Sorry, sorry, it seems I caused quite a stir..."

"Just cultivated Senjutsu, couldn't control it for a moment..."

Watching Tagitsuhime beside him furious, Yu hadn't expected his cultivated Senjutsu to be so powerful and couldn't help but chuckle.

Learning Senjutsu from Ryuchi Cave and then destroying their generational dwelling place to this extent seemed rather unkind. However, Yu's unapologetic smile at the corner of his mouth betrayed him deeply.

"You're really getting on my nerves..."

Seeing Yu's unapologetic smile, Tagitsuhime almost bit her own teeth to pieces.

"But the power of this Senjutsu..."

"It's truly terrifying to the extreme..."

However, when she thought back to the indescribable shock caused by Yu's Sage Art: Storm Release Hard Vortex Water Blade just now, a deep sense of horror still flashed in Tagitsuhime's cold snake-like eyes.
