Chapter 133: Chapter 133: Peach Hermit Garden Box, Completed!
Upon hearing the news from Hidden Mist Village, Obito's eyes flickered.
"Hidden Mist Village announced Third Mizukage's disappearance?"
"The signs point to Konoha?"
"Hidden Mist Village is unaware of Third Mizukage's death? They don't know the number or appearance of the assailants?"
"In that case, can it be proven that Third Mizukage truly died after using that attack?"
"That would make sense."
"If Third Mizukage could continue to use such power without any consequences after death, it would be even stronger than Madara-sama."
Obito felt a slight relief, reducing his wariness towards Hidden Mist Village.
"However, I still need to proceed with caution."
"First, gather intelligence."
"I'm not sure if other Zanpakuto have such special abilities."
In front of Nagato and Konan, Obito pretended not to care about the Skeleton Emperor's abilities, but in reality, he still feared them.
Immediately, Obito's gaze shifted towards the direction of the Land of Fire.
"Before taking action against Hidden Mist Village, perhaps I should make a trip to Konoha."
"Kakashi..."
"I want one of my eyes to exist in Konoha, in a bright way, as proof that I once existed. And you happen to need an eye. But now, I lack the power of the Sharingan. It's time to take my eye back."
Rain Ninja Village.
Nagato is in the process of repairing Pain's body.
The missing arm has completely decayed into ashes.
Therefore, Nagato took an arm from another body, prepared to modify and install it onto Pain's body.
Konan watched silently. After a long while. "It's repaired."
Nagato surveyed Pain in front of him.
"Nagato."
"Konan, what is it?"
"Nagato, if Yahiko gets injured again in the future and we replace more parts of his body with others' parts, will he still be Yahiko?"
Nagato paused.
He remained silent for a moment.
Then he looked up.
"I won't let that happen again."
"Yahiko will surely witness our success with us, witness the changes we bring to the shinobi world, and see the shinobi world we imagine without war, peaceful and stable."
"I swear!"
...
...
Soma entered the forging room, and with a single thought, the blueprint for the Garden Box appeared.
Soma examined the blueprint and then glanced at the materials nearby.
"The production of the Garden Box requires extremely high precision."
"It's not like crafting under the influence of God's Hand or Water Dragon Possession."
"It's even more challenging."
"One reason is that the Garden Box is much larger in size."
"Another difficulty lies in handling the materials of the Garden Box."
On the blueprint, the production of the Garden Box is roughly divided into three steps.
The first step is molding.
The main materials of the Garden Box are a special type of clay.
After adding a certain amount of water, the clay is kneaded and shaped, similar to making pottery.
Allowing some water to evaporate naturally with the wind, it is then fixed.
Next, a controlled flame is used to bake the clay within a fixed range, thoroughly setting it.
This includes the edges and foundation of the Garden Box.
Once fixed, it becomes extremely sturdy, much like cement in building materials.
It is impervious to water and fire, within certain limits, of course.
After the foundation is stable, the second step involves placing internal materials.
Wooden structures for building houses. Seeds of plants that can grow inside. Water sources.
These are all special components. Each holds unique power.
The third step involves planting Senjutsu seeds. Soma looked at a cluster of white petals.
These are Senjutsu seeds imbued with the Senjutsu power of Peach Hermit. When used, the petals are crushed, releasing the Senjutsu power contained within.
Throught them, the power of Senjutsu will automatically integrate with the Garden Box.
"Let's begin!"
Soma prioritized the construction of the Garden Box with the Earth Core Polishing Technique.
"Water Release!"
Using Water Release, he created a mass of water and slowly added it to the clay, mixing it in.
Stirring it bit by bit, the nature of the clay gradually began to change. Soma deliberately chose an empty forging room for this.
For the Garden Box, he also deliberately crafted a container. A metallic container made of refined iron.
Two meters long and two meters wide. Soma filled the metal container with the mixed clay.
First, he laid down a layer for the base. Then he began building the walls.
By this point, the basic framework was mostly complete. But this was just the beginning.
He still needed to construct terrain, rivers, lakes, mountains, houses, and more.
The workload was immense. Soma calculated it all.
"If everything is operated according to the standards on the Blueprint, it will take at least half a month to complete, and that's with me putting in full effort."
If it were another blacksmith, it would take even longer. In just two days, Soma completed the basic part.
At this point, the Garden Box already looked somewhat like a sandbox. There were undulating terrains, connecting mountains and plains.
Even though it wasn't finished yet, Soma looked at the Garden Box in front of him and could faintly sense something.
"It feels somewhat similar to the special patterns in Pioggia. But in this Garden Box, I haven't done anything similar. I've only constructed the terrain so far."
Suddenly, Soma thought of a term. Feng Shui.
"Could it be that just the terrain alone can create special energy?"
In his previous life, Soma didn't believe in Feng Shui.
But upon seeing the situation with the Garden Box, Soma suddenly realized that different mountain ranges and river courses could indeed bring about different feelings and changes.
The "charms" aren't as magical as the shamans claim. But there is some truth to it.
"Energy flows. Different flows lead to different effects."
"The terrain can influence the flow of natural energy."
Soma's expectations for the Garden Box suddenly increased.
He poured in water.
At the top of the mountain, a stone cracked open, water flowed down, gathered into a lake halfway down the mountain.
Further down, the lake turned into a stream.
By the flat area, it became a slowly flowing river.
All the way to the edge of the Garden Box, where it suddenly disappeared.
But in Soma's view, these water flows actually penetrated into the ground.
And with the action of the underground, they returned to the mountains. So it circulates.
Land and water flows are established. Next is to sow the seeds of plants.
Soma took out a small bottle filled with densely packed black dots. He opened the lid and shook it gently.
Afterwards, he poured it towards the Garden Box. The moment the seeds fell to the ground, a strange force immediately appeared, taking the seeds into the soil, where they began to take root and sprout at a rapid pace.
It was like time had sped up. It continued until the saplings grew into large trees, and the grass and bushes all matured, then it stopped.
At this point, the Garden Box looked like a miniature landscape, small but complete in its own ecosystem.
"It feels like a small bridge over flowing water."
"If the food and water inside are not poisonous, living in it should be very nice."
"Next, we need to build the houses inside."
This required more delicate work. Small wooden houses, even a slight deviation, would make the houses crooked. From afar, everything looked fine, but inside the Garden Box, they looked like hazardous houses.
At the same time, it would affect the capabilities of the Garden Box. After several more days, Soma finally completed the production of these small items.
"Scattering the Senjutsu seeds will mark the true completion of the Garden Box."
Dozens of houses. Two bridges. And some flatboats by the riverbank. It could be said that the Garden Box now resembled a complete village at the foot of a mountain. A place settled by dozens of families, living off the mountain and the water, self-sufficient without any need to interact with the outside world. It was like a land of Peach Blossom Spring.
Some trees bore fruits. Fish and shrimp swam in the small river.
"A perfect place for seclusion."
"But in reality, it's only beautiful on the outside."
"Everything inside is highly toxic."
"Similar to the poisoned apple that Snow White ate."
"It looks delicious, but eating it will kill you."
Soma took out the white petals.
"Now, the Garden Box seems to be starting to gather natural energy. Not much, but I can feel it, and it's different from the depths of Forging Island."
"Much quieter. The depths of Forging Island are more chaotic."
"Like the difference between water and fire."
A mass of Chakra coalesced in Soma's hand, which he then crushed against the white petals. The white petals shattered uniformly, as if they had pre-emptively broken themselves into even powder. As the powder scattered, an unusual aura suddenly burst forth.
Soma witnessed the entire Garden Box undergo a transformation. Its boundaries became ethereal, more natural energy gathered and absorbed here, forcefully injected into the Garden Box. Subsequently, the walls, ground, waterways, trees, bushes, and houses of the Garden Box all underwent changes.
"It feels more real!"
"The previous Garden Box gave the impression of a model."
"But now, the Garden Box gives the impression of a real world."
At this moment, a voice echoed in Soma's mind!
