Chapter 134 – The Taste of This Chakra Fruit Is Similar to an Apple
At the Great Desert Base,
Mewtwo was using various instruments to analyze the Divine Tree Fruit that Yamcha had brought.
"All indicators are normal. No toxins detected, and radiation levels are within safe limits."
"From the data, it's simply a fruit containing immense energy."
"But we did find an unknown substance inside this fruit. Due to lack of information, I can't identify what it is. However, current tests show that it's harmless to living beings."
Mewtwo reported the test results to Yamcha one by one and pushed a tablet in front of him.
"So what's your conclusion?"
"If you eat this fruit, there's a 20% chance your power will increase, but there won't be a two- to threefold increase in your cells as you described."
"Then the other 80% is also an increase?"
Mewtwo corrected him: "To be precise, it's a 79% chance."
"And the remaining 1% is turning into a three-eyed person?"
Mewtwo shook his head. "There's a 0.5% chance of developing a third eye, and 0.5% chance of other outcomes."
After all, in the original story, there were no cases of ordinary people eating a chakra fruit, so there's no reference.
As for whether Yamcha might explode due to the massive energy of the fruit?
Mewtwo assured him: that's not possible.
The energy inside the fruit isn't even more than what Yamcha already has.
In the end, the Naruto world's power level is simply too low to compare with Dragon Ball.
"Well then..."
"Let's eat."
Mewtwo raised his hand, and the plate holding the Divine Tree Fruit floated over to Yamcha.
With Mewtwo's confirmation, Yamcha didn't hesitate and brought the fruit to his mouth, taking a bite.
Crunch.
A crisp sound echoed in the room, accompanied by Yamcha's chewing.
"It's sweet and crisp like an apple. Nothing special about the taste."
"Strangely enough, there's no juice, but it melts in the mouth."
As soon as the fruit's flesh touched his mouth, it melted like snow and flowed down his throat.
In no time, Yamcha had eaten the entire Divine Tree Fruit.
"Feeling anything special?"
"Not yet—wait!"
Yamcha suddenly felt a surge of power from every part of his body. The energy spread throughout, filling him completely before gradually integrating into his body and seemingly vanishing.
More precisely, it didn't vanish — it fused with Yamcha's cells.
Mewtwo, closely observing Yamcha, immediately noticed this change.
In the Naruto world, chakra is energy derived from cells. Ninjas extract chakra through meditation and straining their cells.
So... this energy must be chakra?
Yamcha tilted his head, pondering the sensation in his body.
'This must be chakra!'
Excellent. Very excellent.
Yamcha felt strength coursing through his entire body. Casually pointing a finger to the side, ki mixed with the new energy shot out. A beam of light pierced through the room's door.
The destructive power had increased by at least 50%.
Yamcha was thrilled — the Divine Tree Fruit had a clear effect, and this was only the beginning.
Mewtwo: "...Next time, let me know before you test something like that."
As if suddenly realizing something, Yamcha touched his forehead.
Thankfully,
No third eye.
He let out a slight sigh of relief.
Being powerful is temporary. Being cool is for life.
"So, how long until my cells reach 130 trillion?"
Yamcha asked the question he cared about most.
The added destructive power was secondary — the real benefit of chakra was the boost in training.
In theory, once Yamcha's body completed the transformation from the Divine Tree Fruit, his training speed could triple. Combined with Ripple Breathing, the results would be astonishing.
And this was just the training benefit. The chakra fruit had even more potential — once fully absorbed, Yamcha could gain a regeneration ability surpassing Hashirama Senju. Lost limbs could regenerate instantly. If he specialized in yang chakra, he could even achieve near-immortality — no need to make a wish to Shenron.
"Based on my calculations, your body needs at least a year to fully adapt."
Yamcha frowned, clearly dissatisfied with a one-year wait. "Can it be accelerated?"
Mewtwo shook his head. "It can be, but it's unnecessary. Letting it happen naturally is best. You know the saying — haste makes waste."
"You're using idioms now? You're learning fast."
"I was born with knowledge. I just didn't understand the meaning before."
Mewtwo offered professional advice: "Right now, you should focus on learning how to use this power. I remember you mentioned shadow clones and sage mode."
At the moment, Yamcha had chakra flowing through his cells but didn't know how to use it. Techniques like ninjutsu and senjutsu were still out of reach.
All he could do was use chakra to enhance his ki-based attacks — like that fingertip blast.
Even the most talented person would still need formal training.
You can't just rely on having watched anime and instantly master it.
Like in the anime, they teach how to use Rasengan step by step. Even if Yamcha followed it exactly... huh?
He looked down at the blue, transparent sphere forming in his hand.
Apparently, he could do it.
"Am I really this gifted?"
Yamcha suddenly got excited. Then, an image of Hashirama Senju pressing his palms together popped into his head.
So then...
Yamcha brought his hands together.
"..."
Didn't work.
Just pressing palms clearly wasn't enough — the details weren't shown.
Now that he thought about it, Yamcha was curious — since chakra has elements, what would happen if he mixed elemental chakra with ki? Could he fire elemental energy waves?
Like a fire-style Spirit Bomb with burn effects? Or a sharper Destructo Disc with wind-style cutting power?
Though it sounded cool, it probably wouldn't be that practical.
However, yang chakra strengthening the body and yin chakra boosting the mind could bring huge benefits. His stand might be in for a major upgrade.
"So that ninja world — I'll definitely be returning."
Mewtwo nodded. "For two main goals."
"To test resurrection techniques."
"And to learn useful ninjutsu."
What counts as useful? Great Fireball? Not really. Multi Shadow Clone Jutsu for training? Absolutely.
"Partner, should I go with you?"
At this point, WarGreymon stepped forward and asked.
"No need."
Before Yamcha could answer, Mewtwo interrupted.
"Unless he deliberately lets himself get hurt, no one in that world can lay a hand on him."
"I have a few sets of data to collect. I'll need your help for some small experiments later."
If not for shadow clones and the chakra fruit, Yamcha wouldn't even bother visiting that world.
This wasn't just beating up kids.
This was interdimensional domination.
