Chapter 290 Origin, Companion

The smoke dissipated and the slug appeared in front of Suzumiya Musashi.

"ah!"

"Musashi-kun! What happened!?"

The slug immediately noticed the injuries on Suzumiya Musashi's body and exclaimed in surprise.

"Slug, I will explain it to you slowly. Help me heal my wounds first."

"Leave it to me! Musashi-kun." The slug said, and came to Suzumiya Musashi, turning into a group of small slugs, covering Suzumiya Musashi's body.

The cool chakra continuously flowed into the body from the skin, and Suzumiya Musashi's injuries began to improve.

"Musashi-kun, how did you get so badly injured?"

"Did you fight with the Kage of the Great Ninja Village?"

No wonder the slug thought so.

According to its understanding of Suzumiya Musashi's strength, after he initially mastered the fairy technique, Suzumiya Musashi's strength has been greatly improved.

Ordinary elite jonin and famous masters may be nothing in front of Suzumiya Musashi.

And the ninja who could injure Suzumiya Musashi must be a strong one among the Kage level.

Is it the Raikage? Ohnoki? Or...

and many more!

The slug finally discovered something strange.

The chakra filled with healing power was still pouring out, but the tiny mouths of the slug clones had unconsciously opened wide.

"This...this is..."

"Musashi-kun! Why are you here!?"

Unlike tailed beasts like Matatabiki, they have difficulty sensing non-chakra energy.

As one of the ancient beings in this world, the Slug Immortal, which has existed for who knows how long, quickly discovered the abnormality here thanks to its familiarity with natural energy.

The heavy and changeable power of water and the destructive and violent power of thunder, the two mixed together, making the energy density of the entire space reach a terrifying level. The energy fluctuations of destruction and vitality were entangled here.

Hmm... the vitality seems to taste a little off.

Such a thought flashed through the slug's mind, but he didn't think too much about it. The most important thing at the moment was what happened.

As the ancient ruler of the Wet Bone Forest, one of the three holy places, it has existed in this world longer than the Ōtsutsuki, and it already understands what this place is.

Thunder and water give birth to things, and the remaining dirt turns into essence.

How could Suzumiya Musashi provoke these things? !

"It's a long story... It was actually an accident..." Suzumiya Musashi began to narrate what happened.

He had nothing to hide from the slug. From the Wave Country mission a few years ago, to the Cardo Group, the Black Light Guard of the Lightning Country Daimyo... to now.

He originally just wanted to destroy the Black Light and get rid of this poisonous hell in the Land of Thunder, but he never expected that after defeating the small one, he would encounter the big one, and after defeating the humans, he would encounter the long worms.

In the end, he had a fight with a group of arrogant consciousness.

Fortunately, he didn't lose.

After listening to Suzumiya Musashi's explanation, the slug's two tentacles and eyes opened wide and it didn't make a sound for a long time.

After a long time, it let out a long sigh.

"Musashi-kun, I really don't know what to say about you. Should I say you are blessed with a long life, or that you are a newborn calf that is not afraid of tigers."

"It's a miracle that you're still alive."

"Hehe, luck, luck." Suzumiya Musashi scratched his head. The slug's tone was gentle, making him feel as if he was being cared for and complained by his family, and he felt a little embarrassed.

"Maybe." The slug said, "Otherwise it is inexplicable that you can still speak here now."

Suzumiya Musashi looked at the slug's frightened expression and asked in confusion, "Do you know the origin of those long worms... and that strange ball of light?"

The slug paused and asked back, "This is a long story. Musashi-kun, you know that there is more than just chakra in this world, right?"

Suzumiya Musashi played dumb: "You mean natural energy?"

The slug remained silent. It continued, "There are some things you shouldn't know. I didn't expect your strength to improve so quickly. I didn't expect you to be able to survive in this situation."

"Musashi-kun, when you were practicing Senjutsu, you should have realized that there is more than just chakra as energy."

"Before chakra appeared in this world, there were other energies."

"It is scattered between heaven and earth, and only immortals and fairies can access and control this natural energy."

"There is also the energy of the origin of attributes formed by condensing the essence of heaven and earth and gathering them together to form life."

Suzumiya Musashi looked puzzled: "Attribute origin energy?"

"That's right." The slug said, "Wind, thunder, water, fire, and earth."

"They all have their own original energy."

Suzumiya Musashi said: "Wind, thunder, water, fire, and earth? Aren't these the five attributes of chakra?"

The slug said, "Musashi-kun. The relationship here is quite complicated. You just need to know that even the power of chakra is just an evolution of the world's energy."

Suzumiya Musashi didn't say anything. He thought to himself that what the slug didn't say was probably about the Otsutsuki and the sacred tree absorbing the world's energy and converting it into chakra.

"Musashi-kun, the energy you faced before was the ancient source energy."

Suzumiya Musashi: "Original energy? The origin of thunder?"

Slug: "To be precise, it is the source of thunder and water."

Suzumiya Musashi frowned: "Thunder water?"

The slug nodded its antennae: "Yes, thunder water."

Suzumiya Musashi thought about it and asked again: "If that energy consciousness is the origin of thunder and water, what about the group of emperor snakes?"

"I think the lightning poison they possess is very similar to the original energy."

The slug said, "Musashi-kun, what you are thinking makes sense. The Emperor Viper clan is indeed connected to the origin of thunder and water."

"To be precise, the Emperor Viper clan is a clan that was condensed and nurtured by the power of the origin of thunder and water."

"Inducing labor?" Suzumiya Musashi said: "You mean, the Emperor Kui clan is that ball of energy..."

"That's right." The slug responded, "The Emperor Viper Clan is a clan that was bred by the original energy that fought with you."

Suzumiya Musashi was also a little surprised.

He originally thought that the Emperor Viper clan might have been descended from ancestors who occupied this sea area filled with thunder power. Because of their geographical advantages and under the influence of thousands of years, they gradually mastered the power of thunder poison.

This is consistent with his theory of evolution.

However, he did not expect that the other party was not evolved from an ordinary creature, but was born from a group of power.

But then, Suzumiya Musashi sneered in his heart.

This is the world of Naruto.

Chakra can give birth to the tailed beasts, so what if the original energy can give birth to the Emperor Snake?

Everything is reasonable.

"Slug, can the five kinds of original attribute energies all give birth to this kind of companion group? Can you tell me about it?" Suzumiya Musashi was a little curious.

The slug did not refuse and satisfied his curiosity.

"A long, long time ago, the five kinds of original attribute energy did have their own companion groups."

"Wind gives birth to weasels, thunder gives birth to snakes, water gives birth to leeches, fire gives birth to crows, and earth gives birth to earthworms..."

"Wait a minute!" Suzumiya Musashi was listening with great interest, but suddenly seemed to realize something and interrupted the slug.

"You just said, Fengsheng Itachi."

"You mean the itachi..."
