Journey To The True Martial World - Chapter 52

The spirit world was breathtaking, everything was so vibrant and colorful. The natural energy that flew through the air was rich and dense. Though, the quality of the spiritual energy was riveting. The effect it had on Seiichi and Ino was euphoric to the say the least.

The plants were naturally bioluminescent, and the spirit creature that inhabited the lands were playful and robust… Creatures that were foreign and appealing to the eye. It truly was a wondrous place.

“I didn’t expect you to work so fast!” Hagoromo exclaimed in a cheerful mood.

“I wanted to take my time, alas, fate had other ideas in mind. So, where can I find this Vaatu fellow. The faster we squash him the sooner we can leave.” Seiichi replied, while taking in the scenery around him.

“Hmm, I’ll take you there myself. First, I have to ask. How did you kill Raava?” There was a suspecting glow in Hagoromo’s eye. Hagoromo could see everything on the planet and in the spirit world, but he could not see into Seiichi’s inner world. That’s exactly where Seiichi chose to refine Raava.

“We annihilated it, just like I did Madara’s soul” Ino answered in Seiichi’s stead “Now where is this Vaatu guy? Seiichi promised to take me exploring on the new continent and this is really getting in the way.” She added

“haha Good, good. Follow me, He is sealed in the tree of time. With Raava now destroyed, the seal is weakening, and it will not be long until he is free. ” Hagoromo explained as he activated a movement technique of his own and led Ino and Seiichi to the Tree of Time.

In a moment’s time the group stood in front of a tall pillar like a tree. It was old and wither, and its trunk had a twisted like appearance. In the center of the tree was hollow. The hallow center house a black and red colored Vaatu.

Seiichi walked to his the hollow tree, placing his hand on the barrier. Sending in a large quantity of energy into the barrier, Seiichi shattered the barrier with his soul power. The moment he was free Vaatu launched straight into Seiichi’s ċhėst.

Taking a seat in the hollowed tree, Seiichi began to fight an internal battle for dominance with Vaatu.

While Seiichi was refining Vaatu, Hagoromo had made his move for the Sprit King’s throne competing against a multitude of spirit, who of which were utter suppressed by Hagoromo.

The closer his refinement process got to completion; the closer Seiichi’s soul came to match the strength of his physical power. When he was finally finished. Seiichi was a spiritual powerhouse at a level equivalent of Hagoromo.

When Seiichi stepped out of the tree, Hagoromo felt the power of Seiichi’s soul as if he was physically touching it. “Good will?” Hagoromo voice traveled from his throne to the mind of Seiichi in an instant

“Of course, Goodwill.” Seiichi replied without a hint of contempt or deception.

==========================================

The days that followed were Peaceful, Seiichi’s group hunted Spirit beings that they fancied and devoured them to aid in their soul growth. Nearing their last days on earth. Hinata hunted and devoured the moon and ocean spirits, Tui and La.

This move had Sent Hagoromo over the edge. Making his move, Hagoromo removed the barrier between the world to maximize his power on the mortal plane. But it was pointless, Seiichi had seen the fight play out a hundred times with his eyes. It was a pretty nifty ability, but Seiichi liked the mystery and did his best to refrain from using it.

“Seiichi, he’s here. What do we do?” Ino spoke

“Orochimaru, Naruto, kill him and then refine him. When your finished Fu will be back, and we’ll move on to the Celestial realms”

Naruto wore a satisfied smile. Motivated to end it quickly. He activated his Kyubi chakra that was now his. Kurama had completely refined and extinguished, leaving Naruto with all of his power and abilities. With nine chakra tails, a pair of fox ears and fanged teeth. Naruto stepped into the ready for a fight.

Orochimaru had discovered a way to equip Susanoo’s armor without conjuring the massive warrior. He now wielded two purple chakra sword and had purple wings on his back. As he hovered in the air, a ring of black flames circled his body giving of a horrific heat.

“That damn Orochimaru is some kind of genius.” Seiichi commented while watching the show from ground level.

“Seiichi, can we talk for a moment?” Rock Lee asked

Seiichi looked at him for a moment, then he glanced at Sakura, who choose not to make eye contact.

“Sure, Lee.” Seiichi gestured for Lee to lead the way. “What’s on your mind?” he asked, “Well, I’m sure you know I’ve always liked Sakura. But ever since I’ve merged with Lee Jun-Fan. I’ve had a feeling it was something more. She reminds me of a woman from my past life. And during these past days we’ve grown rather close” Lee tried to explain

“Yes” Seiichi interrupted him, which caused a bit of shock

“Lord Seiichi, I haven’t…”

“I know. As long as you take care of her, she can come with us. Same thing for Naruto when Fu gets back. Your woman, your responsibility.” Seiichi informed him, Lee found his words pleasing to the ear, and his youthful energy burst forth in celebration.

Walking to Sakura, Seiichi gave her a few words of wisdom and left the two their business.

“What was that all about” Akira asked a little curious. Seiichi looked at her, then wrapped his arm around her waist, pulling her close “Spring is in the air” he told her.

As Seiichi looked into the sky, Akira brought her lips to his ear “If spring is here, then we ought to act accordingly” she whispered sweetly while she ran her hand along his ċhėst

Running his tongue along his lips, Seiichi broke into a smile. “haa Carnality suits you. Lady Akira, ”

“Please, I’m but a lowly servant before you, My Lord.” Akira’s voice was dripping with allure. And Seiichi didn’t mind it in the slightest.

“Haha, we’ll see just how subservient a woman of your status can be” He replied

“I may need further tempering; I can be a little… unruly at times” Akira glided her tongue up Seiichi’s neck “But I’m sure it’s nothing you can’t correct, ” she added

Seiichi finally turns his head to face the mȧturė beauty, only to find docile eyes, lined with a gleam of sėxuȧŀ thirst looking back at him.

Bang!

The sound of Hagoromo crashing into the ground resounded through the area. Though Akira and Seiichi’s eyes remained locked.

“The battlefield isn’t a place for blooming flowers” Seiichi spoke

“Nor is it a place for docility. I am truly out of my element here” Akira replied, Seiichi tightened his embrace around her waist.

“Then I’ll shall take you to a more, appropriate, setting.”

“Nii-San! We won!” Naruto shouted

“Well, refine him!” Seiichi shouted his reply, then disappeared with Akira.

“Where are they going?” Naruto asked

“Just focus, there are three types of energy in him. We want the soul power and chakra. So, let’s get to it” Orochimaru replied, then the Duo Hagoromo into the Myriad Realm for refinement.

“Oh, why does she get to have Seiichi all to herself?” Ino pouted, Karin just shook her head

“Because, we don’t meet his requirements yet. There’s a reason he has us cultivating the Demonic Yin Harvesting technique. Or did you forget?” Hinata replied. Hinata now had two black and white horns on her head. White streaks throughout her hair and a pair of absolute eyes, the Zettaigan. After becoming the Ten Tails Jinchuriki, the chakra effected her in a peculiar way. Changing her, but in the usual ways.

“I didn’t forget, I choose not to remember. If we can’t have him yet, then I think Akira should wait as a courtesy to us” Ino attempted to justify her reason

“Phhaha. Would you if it was vice versa. I know I wouldn’t’ Pakura added her two senses.

Hinata rolled her eyes “We have work to do. Meaning the 72,000 nadis and our dantian formation. Seiichi also told us to start forming our Strength of a Hundred Seal. So, let’s go. Come on, bitches.” Hinata walked was the first to return to the Myriad Realm.

“Haha, well, somebody’s jealous…” Yakumo spoke up and the girls laughed as the returned to the Myriad Realm as well.
