Sizzle, sizzle~
On the iron rack, the top-grade beef grilled to a golden brown mixed with spices, emitting an extrely rich aroma. It greatly stimulated one's appetite.
But no matter how delicious the food was, there was always a limit to the stomach's capacity.
Gradually, Honoka, Samui, and Ryuzetsu put down their chopsticks, drinking iced juice leisurely like Konan. Their lower abdons bulged slightly; they were already stuffed with a large amount of roasted at and couldn't eat anymore.
"Uh..." Honoka finished a glass of juice heartily, looking at Hinata, who was still eating, with amazent in her eyes.
You can't judge a book by its cover. This newcor looked like a very shy little girl, but her appetite was astonishing. She was still eating...
Honoka thought that as a mber of the Uzumaki clan, she was quite a big eater among girls. Unexpectedly, there was a master, so fierce...
The eating speed was incredibly fast. She had already eaten over fifty plates, and the empty plates beside her were stacked higher than her head. Yet her speed remained undiminished, consistent from start to finish.
If Shion hadn't been helping to grill beside her the whole ti, she wouldn't have been able to keep up with Hinata's swallowing speed. Shion was so busy that fine sweat appeared on her forehead, and her face was flushed. But looking at her, she seed quite happy to feed delicious food to another version of herself.
Honoka peeked downward, looking at Hinata's stomach. It was flat, not bulging even a bit.
Her eyes widened instantly, and she couldn't help but ask, "Hinata, where did all the roasted at you ate go?"
"Why doesn't your stomach look big at all?"
"..." Hinata, who was happily eating, paused abruptly.
She held a piece of roasted at in mid-air, frozen. Putting it down wasn't right, sending it into her mouth wasn't right either.
It was the first ti she had eaten such delicious roasted at without having to hide her true appetite, able to eat freely. She had eaten too heartily, too selflessly...
She forgot she was still in the enemy camp...
"Ignore her." Shion picked up a piece of roasted at and fed it into Hinata's mouth. "Keep eating, eat freely."
Her tone carried a hint of heartache. "Look at you. You look so much like , yet your village didn't even let you eat a full al. Stay here from now on. You can eat whatever you want openly and never go hungry again."
Hinata opened her mouth, wanting to deny it a little, but thinking that she really hadn't eaten her fill in all these years, she didn't say much. Under Shion's enthusiastic feeding, she buried her head and continued to eat fiercely.
"Right, there's enough roasted at, eat as you please." Honoka excitedly started grilling at again.
Samui and Ryuzetsu did the sa. They all wanted to join the feeding team and see the limit of Hinata's stomach capacity.
"Co, Hinata, mine is ready, open your mouth quickly."
"Mine is ready too, eat mine first."
"What are you fighting for? You underestimate Hinata too much. It's just three pieces of at; she can eat them in one bite, no need to fight!"
The laughter of the girls rang out in the pavilion, full of joy and harmony.
Konan stood at the edge of the deck, admiring the surrounding sea of clouds. The breeze blew on her face, very pleasant.
Kada stood respectfully not far away, carrying a wooden bucket on his chest. Inside was juice chilled by ice blocks, ready to provide iced juice at any ti.
"Kada."
"This subordinate is here, Lady Konan." Kada walked forward silently a few steps.
"How many days until we reach the Land of Swamps?"
"Lady Konan, the Land of Swamps is located remotely. At the Sky Fortress's speed, it is estimated to take three more days to arrive."
"Three days..." Konan narrowed her eyes, thinking silently.
Now five bloodlines had been successfully fused. Only the fusion of the Hyuga bloodline tomorrow remained to achieve the Otsutsuki bloodline.
As for enemies...
The Five Great Ninja Villages weren't much of a concern. Sasuke Uchiha would definitely swap for Itachi's eyes during this ti, achieving the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan. Obito Uchiha... his life or death was unknown.
And Black Zetsu... Kabuto Yakushi... the Sage of Six Paths...
These guys were all hiding tightly, plotting conspiracies in the dark. The ti spent searching for the Moon Passage and obtaining the Tenseigan would probably be the last peaceful days in the Ninja World.
"The calm before the storm..."
Kada wasn't clear about the situation in the Ninja World, so naturally, he didn't understand the aning of Konan's words. He just stood with his head lowered, doing his part well. He didn't need to worry about other things, nor did he have the ability.
Rustle, rustle~
Just then, half-ter-long sheets of white paper floated in front of Kada. They were engraved with dense, twisted black runes.
Konan said in a deep voice, "Kada, place these sealing papers at the designated locations of the Sky Fortress. Go do it now."
"Yes!" Kada raised his hands, and the sheets of paper landed neatly in his hands. The top one contained the placent locations and operating instructions.
"This subordinate will go do it imdiately." After speaking, he retreated quickly.
Alex floated beside Konan, sighing, "Finally able to set up a barrier for the Sky Fortress to replace that shallow Hiding in Mist Technique."
Konan looked at Alex. "Is it similar to Nagato's Rain Tiger at Will Technique or the barrier covering the entire Konoha village?"
"Stronger than theirs," Alex said proudly. "I have fully absorbed the Uzumaki clan's sealing jutsu. Integrating the advantages of all sealing jutsu, I specifically designed a brand new sealing barrier. Not only can it make the Sky Fortress invisible, but it also has powerful defensive and counterattack capabilities, because we have sufficient energy."
Konan thought for a mont and realized, "Is it because of the Zero-Tails?"
"Correct." Alex nodded. "Konoha's barrier should accurately be called a warning barrier. Its function is rely to know who enters and exits the village at any ti; it has no defensive capability."
"For such a large barrier, the Chakra consud every mont is massive. Just maintaining the warning capability makes the Barrier Team struggle. If they wanted to upgrade the level to possess defensive capabilities, the Chakra consumption would grow exponentially. Those few people's Chakra simply couldn't handle it."
But the Sky Fortress barrier didn't require humans to bear the Chakra consumption; the Zero-Tails was enough. Alex had improved the Zero-Tails twice, making its Chakra conversion efficiency higher and faster. It could basically et the daily consumption of both the Sky Fortress and the protective barrier simultaneously.
"Hmm?" Alex laughed. "Kada is really fast. All the sealing papers have been placed in position."
"Next, it's up to ..."
He instantly activated all the sealing papers.
The sealing papers placed by Kada in various locations suddenly emitted strong Chakra fluctuations. They shot out semi-transparent beams of light into the air, clearly visible.
"What happened? Is it an enemy attack again?" Inside the pavilion, Samui's face changed. She imdiately stopped feeding Hinata and flickered to Konan's side. "Lady Konan!"
Ryuzetsu and Honoka were just half a beat slower, jumping over as well. Shion dragged Hinata and arrived last.
"Don't worry." Konan looked around at everyone. "This is setting up a barrier for the Sky Fortress, not an enemy attack."
"Barrier?" Honoka was startled, looking at the beams shooting into the sky from different positions of the Sky Fortress. "Lady Konan, such a massive barrier covering the entire Sky Fortress... the consumption must be huge, right?"
"Energy is supplied by the Zero-Tails, no need for manpower."
"Sugoi!" Honoka shouted excitedly.
The others also stared at the sky with widened eyes.
Alex began to control it further. The beams of light in mid-air began to flatten and elongate, spreading to the surroundings. Connecting in pairs, they finally ford a giant semi-transparent barrier covering the entire Sky Fortress. Like an oval do.
Then the color of the light curtain gradually faded, finally disappearing into invisibility.
From the outside, the Sky Fortress only appeared briefly in the high altitude for an instant before vanishing again. This barrier could automatically adjust its light and color according to the changes in the surrounding environnt, achieving invisibility at any ti.
