87 Building an Army

A loud quaking noise echoed throughout his soul as his life force was on the edge of flicking out, suddenly the spark turned into a massive inferno as it exploded through every cell in his body.

He felt like his body was being smashed by trillions of tinny hammers, tempered like steel in a forge every one of his cells began to glow with energy. His life force continued to multiply by in insane magnitude, times two, times four, times eight, and so on and so on, until he could no longer keep up.

The cracks on his skin began to fall off revealing a perfectly smooth and flawless layer underneath. His heartbeat let out a loud thump that shook the surrounding, as Kibo opened his eyes he flexed his muscles causing ripples in the space around him.

"HA~HAH!" Seiryu let out a loud laugh, "He did it, that little kid opened all eight gates and is barely 17 years old.

Kibo looked at his hands and gripped them tightly, he could feel that his body had truly evolved, every cell in his body was brimming with vital energy, by the time he had finished examining the new physique he looked at Genbu who quickly revealed her human form.

She had long black hair and was around the same size as Suzaku, she wore a turtle shell patterned kimono that had a snake coiling around the waist, her facial features were young and vibrant, and could only match Suzuaku in beauty. She looked to Kibo and bowed before saying, "My name is Genbu of the North, I represent Water, Ice, and Death, my siblings have informed me that you are connected to our original master. To thank you I promise to serve you with all of my might!"

Genbu's chipper voice carried a happy and relaxed tune to it, Kibo smiled and nodded his head, when a chime went off in his head showing that he had completed his mission, as well as completing a hidden one as well.

The chime sent a gush of information into Kibo's brain making him smile.

[Resurrect all 4 Sacred Beasts; Reward: Genbu's Reinforcement Cultivation Technique, Genbu's Death Eater Cultivation Technique, Genbu's Turtle&Snake Martial Art Style, Byakko's Metal Tiger Martial Art Style, Byakko's Empowering Roar, Byakko's Crystal Fang Cultivation Technique.]

Genbu's Reinforcement Technique: can increase the bodies defensive power to equal that of Genbu's Shell, the greater Immortal Energy supplied to this technique, the greater the body's defensive capabilities are.

"This one's pretty straight forward, in fact, the Genbu Sect's technique looks like a weaker version of this one," Kibo thought as he went over the next ability he gained from the two beasts.

Genbu's Death Eater Technique: Is capable of absorbing Death Energy and has the ability to convert it temper one's life force. There are three levels to this, one can continue to polish and increase the quality of their vital energy.

The first stage is opening up the vital ocean, in order to do this one must have a vast well of life force, by pushing the body to the brink of death, the Death Energy acts as a stimulant to activate the bodies survival instincts and pushes them to the limits.

"I think I already opened up my Vital Sea!" Kibo thought as he peaked at his Vital Energy Stat and almost felt his jaw drop open.

[Age: 17 Years. Vital Force (5,129,633,792,999,Years)]

Continuing on studying the technique, the next step was to slowly chip away at his life force like he was cutting a diamond, little by little until it forms into a solid state, little by little the quality would become a more pure substance than the original, he'd lose a little life force doing this but with it allowing his vital energy to improve to a whole new level it would be worth it.

The third and final form was actualization, to bring his Vital energy crystal into the mortal realm instead of the spiritual. Once he did this his Vital Force would merge with his physique creating an almost immortal body, that could regenerate from a single drop of blood.

"Genbu must have failed to reach this point, or perhaps this shell piece was taken before she mastered it." Kibo looked at the remaining cultivation techniques he gained.

Genbu's Turtle&Snake Martial Art Style: This had Nine Moves it focused Death Energy into the attacks and shape of a snake to attack and then focused water to defend.

Snake Stance(Tai Jutsu): Makes moves softer and more flexible, includes bones and muscles.

Turtle Stance(Tai Jutsu): Become like an unmovable mountain, and severely increases the body's defensive capabilities by 10x the norm.

Snake Death Palm (Tai Jutsu): Increases opponent's own death energy with every attack. Used enough it can cause the target to die even without wounding him.

Turtle Life Guard (Tai Jutsu): Can absorb Death energy and use it to form a wall that absorbs all attacks focused at it.

Snake Coil Strike(Tai Jutsu): Able to multiply the physical damage by creating a giant python out of death energy and striking with a powerful spinning punch.

Turtle Falling Star Smash(Tai/Ninjutsu): Create several Genbu Replicas out of Death Energy and Ice to create a massive falling star like attack covering alarge attack zone.

Dragon Snake Whip(Tai/Ninjutsu): Using the arms like whips one can surround them in water and death energy to

Turtle Wall(Tai Jutsu): Create a large Wall to absorb all attacks over a large area.

Snake and Tortoise Assualt(Tai/Ninjutsu): Creates a construct out of Death and Life energy that absorbs Death energy and transfers Life Energy to those he chooses. Can create a whirlwind of Chaos Energy by combining the two energies.

Byakko's Metal Tiger Martial Art Style had only 3 stances but each of them was very offensive and focused on ferocity and overpowering attacks.

Byakko's Fang Stance: Turns hands into claws through Immortal Energy and changes them into massive fangs that chomp down on targets.

Byakko's Diamond Claws Stance: Creates massive claw construct that can cut through even the hardest substances in existence, incredible piercing power that almost completely ignores hardness.

Byakko's Rampage Stance: Wild and Ferocious, places the body on full berserk mode but allows one to retain thoughts. The body acts on instinct rather than thought, so the movements and attacks far surpass strength and reaction speeds.

Byakko's Empowering Roar: Gifts out energy to those one chooses by sending energy along sound waves. Depending on the amount given, the greater the effects will be.

Byakko's Devouring Crystal Fang Cultivation Technique: Allows one to improve their stomach and teeth to 3 different stages that can allow them to eat metals and crystals to increase the sharpness of his physique.

The first stage was Steel Fang, the second was Crystal Fang, and the last was Diamond Fang.

Along with the 6 Mystic Beasts techniques, all the information from his clone that had been training had returned to his body, he ended up mastering his Pheonix and Dragon Cultivation techniques and could feel a slight connection that was forming between them.

"Hmm, could I Fuse all four of the arts with the system?" Kibo pondered whether or not it was worth risking losing all his progress when he grinned, "First I have to master the remaining Mystic Beast Cultivation Methods, after that, I'll consider fusing them."

Right now he could feel that through his Soul Cultivation Technique his Soul was quickly approaching the peak of the Immortal stage. He could feel his senses stretching out like there would be no end to his range. Inside here he could test the range because the surrounding space here was infinite.

After a few minutes, he realized that it stopped around 92 million miles, "That's about the same distance between the earth and the sun!" Realizing he needed to hone in on a specific spot allowed him to see much better and focus the information, instead of having all the information overrun him and causing the image to blur.

"Who'd of thought, that my soul would be the closest to reaching the God Realm, and I still have to open all my Chakra Gates to catch up. I've also only managed to make 7 of my Dao Seedlings hatch nine leaves." Kibo sighed, "I guess after our Honeymoon, I'll have to pour my most of my time into training."

Returning to reality he saw the Kage's staring at him like he had been gone for a while, "How long was I away?" Kibo asked.

"Almost a whole day," Tsunade answered him.

Kibo laughed and apologized, he then lifted his finger and cut open a slit in space, the surrounding Kage shuddered as he repeated this action several times, suddenly he created several dozen Permaclones and sent them out to replace the ones that had been destroyed during his brief encounter with death.

He then smiled and grabbed a hold of a Kages and sent them back to his village, he then pulled the entire water temple into Genbu's realm and returned to his wives sides.

Everyone was worried because of the sudden disappearance of his clone, but after explaining what happened they breathed a sigh of relief before Kibo sent off the Dream Nin to his village as well.

Returning to the village he looked to Obito, and Rin and asked them if they would choose their soul partners or have him select what they would be.

"I want Kibo to choose!" Rin said throwing her hands into the air.

Kibo looked to Obito who was staring down Kakashi before he responded, "Whatever Kibo picks, I'm sure we won't be disappointed."

Kibo laughed as he pulled out the Tengu Fan and pulled a few feathers from it, "This fan was made from an authentic Tengu Feather." After handing it off to Obito, he then pulled out two of Nine Elemental Hydra Fangs and handed them over to Rin.

"After explaining what had to be done, Kibo gave them Star Chambers and helped them resurrect the mighty beasts.

The Tengu had bright red skin and long black hair with nine pairs of crow feathered wings, he was has a well-built physique and appeared to be humanoid in shape with the exception of having crow talons as feet.

He wore an ancient black colored traditional kimono with a white Tengu mask that had a long and pointed nose as its only defining feature.

The world that formed were massive mountains so high that one could not see the massive flowing waters at their base, gargantuan hillside castle cities started popping up, along with the screeching caw of crowds numbering in the millions.

Obito's irises suddenly turned black, and the markings of his Rinne-Sharingan turned white. He stared down the defiant Tengu who had appeared, standing in human form like the Demi-God that he was.

After Kibo explained the situation he discovered the Tengu was actually from another planet in this universe's Milkyway, Kibo and Obito listened to how his entire planet was turned into a God Tree and devoured by the Otsutsuki Clan.

Kibo sighed and explained that they almost share the same fate as his world. When the Tengu Sōjōbō heard that they were going to war with the Otsutsuki, he lifted his mask revealing a handsome face that burned with a desire to enact his vengeance.

Kibo threw out the Tengu's fan and watched as the Sōjōbō grabbed it in surprise.

"This is my Fan!" he shouted out.

"I used a couple of feathers to revive you in this condition. You can replace the ones I took out," Kibo said as he exited the realm to repeat this process for Rin.

For her, a large clear and warm ocean appeared, warm climate tropical islands appeared and was flooded with aquatic life forms, a giant serpent-like beast swam underneath the surface of the water, its face looked like it was part dragon, but the nose looked like the body had large massive heads and a dog-shaped torso and legs.

A long winding tail slapped against the surface of the water as the Hydra roared and assumed a human form, it looked like a young thin maiden with fairy-like beauty.

Like the Tengu she shared a similar story, coming from a water world her planet was raided and turned into a barren wasteland. After conversing for a while and explaining the situation, the Hydra known as Yumi agreed to become Rin's partner.

He then sent the two off to the time chamber to continue their training, he sent in a Permaclone to train them, and himself while his wives planned their wedding.
