Chapter 229: Time Of Death
Early morning light pierced through a large dome within the botanical room of Sun Stream Plaza.
Rin and Tayuya had been sent to the outskirts of the jungle to train while the rest were sleeping. The only person in the plaza awake at this hour was Arthur.
He was seen walking through the garden he had nurtured. It was thriving, filled with a riot of greens and colorful blossoms. He had put a lot of effort into cultivating this oasis, especially after securing rare herbs and plants that had cost him a fortune.
Of course, it was still in its initial stages. Many of the plants had just begun sprouting, while the ones that seemed matured were transplants.
And as great as it looked right, there were still troubles to it. Such Koko's insatiable appetite for anything that grew in their garden.
Who could blame her when the space was filled with rich aromas of plants mingling together—earthy scents laced with sweetness and bitterness?
Most insects and animals would drool after laying eyes on it. There were just that many rows of greenery bathing in natural sunlight.
There were his Yoshinari herbs, known for their healing properties, often used in various remedies designed to treat injuries and hasten recovery. Arthur walked to them and plucked a few sprigs before placing them in his satchel.
Next, his attention shifted to the knotweed, a plant that, while not mentioned in the Naruto realm, held incredible medicinal properties in real life.
Much like the healing herbs from the series, knotweed was recognized for its ability to aid in restoring balance within the body, making it a crucial addition to his collection.
Moving along, he found the ginseng—its roots thick and gnarled, known across cultures for its stamina-boosting effects. Why he grew this was because of the energy supplements he had in mind.
