Relying on the excellent natural environment of the Mental Time Room, Ye Chen had improved his physical skills to the lowest requirement of a Navy Great General in the Karp Rating in a year of cultivation.
This rate of improvement seemed too fast, but one had to consider the hardships that Ye Chen had suffered and the difficult cultivation environment.
His muscles had also become much stronger after a year of cultivation. He had bid farewell to his slightly thin body in the past. Now, he looked full of fitness, but he was not bloated.
His height had also increased to 185 meters under this devilish physical training. Compared to the height of two to three meters in One Piece, he was already considered ordinary.
Ye Chen's image had undergone such a huge change, but he had already found an excuse.
Before entering the Time Room, he had told Okami that he was going into seclusion, so he left his home and went deep into the mountains.
This way, even if he left the Time Room, he could still cultivate for a period of time. He could use the excuse of not seeing each other for a long time to find an acceptable reason for his transformation.
Fortunately, even though the people in Ninja Realm did not develop as quickly as those in One Piece World, some situations that seemed to be injected with hormones still happened from time to time.
For example, Naruto had grown more than 20 centimeters in two years, which was common in this era.
Ye Chen had grown so much in just three months. Although it was shocking, it was still acceptable.
This was only a visible improvement. In the mental time room, he had not only trained his physical skills.
His saber technique and the Thunder Fruit that he relied on for survival had already made great progress!
Especially the ability of the Thunder Fruit. Now that he had developed it, he was only one step away from awakening it.
Although this step was as difficult as ascending to heaven, Ye Chen had Karp's cultivation experience, so he had already touched the threshold.
After all, Karp had taught a disciple like Kuzan. Kuzan, who could become a navy general, must have awakened his Fruit ability.
What Ye Chen needed now was just a battle on the edge of life and death. Perhaps he could break through directly!
With the powerful ability of the Thunder Fruit, once it awakened, Ye Chen might even reach the peak of the Super Shadow class.
At the very least, even if the fruit had not awakened, Ye Chen was confident that he could fight with Supershadow!
As Ye Chen knew in advance that World War II would begin in about three months, he made use of the time to return home before the war.
Okami had not seen Ye Chen for two months, so he could not recognize him when he saw the drastic change in Ye Chen.
However, in the next moment, the strong Okami threw herself into Ye Chen's arms and cried. Seeing her tear-stained face, Ye Chen comforted her
" I've only been gone for two months. Is there a need to be so sad…"
However, Okami's next words made Ye Chen's heart skip a beat. This was because Okami was not acting like he missed Ye Chen.
" Rope Tree, he…Wuu…Wuu…"
When Ye Chen heard this, he had a bad feeling.
Then, Ye Chen said with a solemn expression,
"Did he die in battle…"
Hearing Ye Chen's words, Okami cried even harder. This made Ye Chen's heart ache.
Just as he had guessed, Rope Tree was really dead!
Counting the time, the rope tree in the original novel seemed to have died around this time, right?
He didn't expect that even with his powerful brother-in-law, he still couldn't change the fate of this hot-blooded idiot.
In fact, it was obvious just by thinking about it. Such a hot-blooded idiot still wanted to be Naruto. The key was that he did not have much combat experience and always rushed to the first place in battle.
Under such circumstances, as long as someone took advantage of him, he could be killed at any time.
Ye Chen had taught Sheng Shu a lesson more than once because of this. However, Sheng Shu was not someone Ye Chen could persuade with just a few words.
Ye Chen blamed himself for not being able to change Rope Tree's fate and causing his wife to suffer the pain of losing her brother.
"I'm sorry…I shouldn't have left at this time…"
Okami was not blaming Ye Chen. She simply needed someone to rely on.
In fact, due to the impending war, Okami had been training Rope Tree a lot. He had also reminded Rope Tree to be careful in battle or to not let Rope Tree do dangerous missions.
Unfortunately, all of these could not defeat fate. In the end, Rope Tree still died in the simplest patrol mission.
Okami cried in Ye Chen's arms for a while before she finally calmed down.
" I don't blame you…Perhaps this is Rope Tree's fate. Even the patrol mission was chosen by him. Even the third generation couldn't influence his choice…"
Ye Chen knew that although the third-generation successor and the group trooper were famous for being the pot kings, they would not be able to take the blame for this incident.
This was the critical moment before the war began. They must have hoped for peace. Otherwise, they would not have not given Ye Chen any missions for the past three months.
However, Rope Tree was just unlucky enough to step on the Detonation Talisman during a patrol mission and explode into a pile of minced meat.
Ye Chen did not say much at this time. He just quietly listened to Tsunei's sorrow.
After Okami's emotions finally stabilized, Ye Chen asked,
"Which country set this trap?"
Since he was killed while patrolling, he must have stepped into another village's Detonation Talisman trap. At this time, Ye Chen could only vent his anger on that village.
Since he dared to kill his brother-in-law, he had to be prepared for revenge!
Okami did not know Ye Chen's plan. He only clenched his fists and said hatefully,
"It's at the border of the Country of Rain."
Ye Chen did not expect it to be in a small country like the Country of Rain. This was not even one-tenth the size of the Country of Fire. It was a great honor for such a country to kill the last male descendant of the Thousand-Hand Clan.
Ye Chen did not say anything harsh. He only silently remembered the Country of Rain in his heart.
Shinobu was still under the rule of the mountain pepper fish Hanzo, which meant that Ye Chen's primary target was definitely Hanzo.
This was the Demigod that Ninja Realm respected. If others knew that Ye Chen had the intention to kill a Demigod, who knew what kind of expression they would have.
Having made up his mind, Ye Chen suddenly thought of someone and asked hurriedly,
"Where is Lord Mito? Is she alright?"
Ye Chen would not forget that the Mito had already developed world-weary thoughts. Now that even his grandson was dead, he was afraid that this thought would pop up again!
If it wasn't for his only granddaughter, Mito probably wouldn't even have nurtured the next Nine-Tailed Human Pillar, right?
Okami replied,
" Grandma's mood is fine. She was depressed for a few days at first, but she seems to have recovered recently. It's just that she doesn't smile as much as before…"
Ye Chen knew that Rope Tree's death had indeed affected Mito. Before he went into seclusion, Mito and Okami had been chatting and laughing every day…
