From Naruto onwards, I've become a dreamer.

Chapter 233 Observation Diary
Observation Diary, March 17.

Subject of observation: Uchiha Obito.

Mental state: Good (approximately?)
Current status of the sample: Bound Person Path, Sequence 7 - Werewolf, chose to advance directly without fully digesting the Sequence 8 potion (this guy is really crazy).

Behavioral Record 1: Experiencing auditory hallucinations and exhibiting an almost abnormal obsession with the sample of the individual "Lin," frequently talking to himself (it seems to be related to the moon, but I can't understand it).

Behavior record 2: Attempted to engage in some form of "breeding" with the individual "Lin" (tsk... even more perverted than me).
Behavioral record 3: He attempted to hold some kind of worship ceremony, but was interrupted midway, causing the ceremony to fail (who knows where this guy learned it from).

Behavior Record 4: During specific full moon moments, it will completely lose control and go berserk, frantically destroying everything around it, and repeatedly shouting the same word in anger (I can't understand it~ it seems to be four words, it feels terrifying!).

Behavioral Record 5: Repeated breeding behavior...

Behavioral Record 6: Reproduction...

Behavior Log 7: This guy is even more perverted than me.

Behavior Log 8: Hiss... Am I imagining things? It looks like a flower is growing on the skeleton of individual "Lin"?

Behavioral Record 9: The remains of individual "Lin" are suspected of undergoing an unknown mutation; the specific situation remains to be observed.

Conclusion: So far, no abnormalities have been found. You can continue to observe, your most loyal servant, White Zetsu.

PS: The brainwashing was very successful. That guy doesn't remember anything that happened before. He even asked me where I got the Sharingan. I told him that a kind person gave it to him, and he didn't ask any more questions after that.

P.S.: Black Zetsu seems suspicious. Should I take it out? That guy is so annoying; I always feel like he's plotting something!
Snapped!
Closing the report from White Zetsu, Uchiha Munetsuki leaned back in his chair, lightly tapping his brow with his index finger, and pondered, "He falls into madness during the full moon... It seems he's influenced by the moon. From all the signs, we can roughly confirm that the source of the pollution... is the 'Mother Tree of Desire.'"

Yes, my heart, which had been hanging in suspense, can finally rest easy.

It's like a prisoner sentenced to death who hasn't received the order to carry it out yet. After enduring countless torments, he thought there was still a sliver of hope for a retrial, but instead, he was subjected to the excruciating torture of being slowly sliced ​​to death!
At the top of the twenty-two divine paths is Sequence Zero, hailed as the "True God," and above that sequence is the "Old Days."

Any being at the "Old Days" level means that it has fully embraced all its own pathways and completely mastered the "Source Matter," gaining all its own authority and symbolism.

Even a true god of Sequence Zero cannot resist the corruption from the "Old Days". The difference between the two is like the difference between clouds and mud, an insurmountable chasm!
Before the "old days," all are but ants.

The only thing that can rival the "Old Ones" is the "Old Ones" of the same rank. Even the "True God" is nothing more than a slightly larger speck of dust in its presence.

And the Mother Tree of Desire... is the "Old Days"!
But he is Sequence Four, a demigod!

It's still a long way from sequence zero, and it can't even be considered an "angel"!
"First, we can rule out the possibility that it's the 'original entity'."

"If it really were the Mother Tree of Desire, the Naruto world would have been devoured long ago and wouldn't be able to survive until now. After all, there's no Lord of Mysteries here, nor any defensive barrier."

Even after eliminating the most terrifying option, the remaining possibilities still gave Uchiha Munetsuki a headache.

Whether what's on the moon is a remnant of the Mother Tree of Desire's will or something related to it, it's extremely dangerous for him at this stage!

"I'm still just a Sequence 4 kid..."

Uchiha Muneki looked utterly dejected.

Even the Angel King Roselle, a Sequence 1 Hermit Path, could not withstand the corruption of the Mother Tree of Desire, let alone a mere Sequence 4 demigod like him.

This situation is like asking Xiao Yan from Wutan City to fight the Soul Emperor one-on-one. It's absolutely outrageous!
"At least, we absolutely cannot go to the moon rashly before we are fully prepared..." Uchiha Muneki pinched the bridge of his nose.

After learning that a "Mother Tree of Desire" might exist on the moon, he became even more cautious. After all, that was the "Old Days," and the slightest mishap could leave him like Emperor Roselle, reduced to endless sit-ups in his coffin. Hmm... maybe even worse off than Emperor Roselle.

If someone who is a Sequence 1 Angel King has fallen to this state, then a Sequence 4 Demigod would probably lose control and become the slave of the Mother Tree of Desire.

My wandering thoughts gradually returned to normal.

Uchiha Muneki calmed himself down. Now that it was confirmed that the moon was related to the "Mother Tree of Desire" and had intricate connections with the Otsutsuki clan, he was no longer in a hurry.

"Otsutsuki... Heh, how interesting."

He narrowed his pale golden eyes, a slight smile playing on his lips, and muttered to himself, "It seems this 'starry sky' still holds many secrets I don't know. The origin of the Otsutsuki clan, the sudden appearance of the 'Mother Tree of Desire'—I wonder what interesting secrets are hidden on the other side of the Pure Land?"

……

……

……

The world of the dead, a pure land.

"The souls of those who die in the world of the living are drawn here and silently await reincarnation."

"But there are also some special beings whose chakra was so vast and powerful in their previous life that they could resist reincarnation and thus remain in the Pure Land."

"For thousands of years, there has been one person who has been like this."

"And he is none other than the legendary Sage of Six Paths, Hagoromo Otsutsuki, who is hailed as the founder of the Ninja School and the creator of the ninja system!"

"I'm curious……"

"What is it about Hagoromo Otsutsuki that makes you so determined to stay in the Pure Land for thousands of years, unwilling to reincarnate, and instead repeatedly interfere in human affairs?"

As they spoke, a middle-aged man dressed in a simple white robe and with a thick golden beard walked step by step to the old man, looked at him with clear eyes, and slowly spoke.

The old man had two horns on his forehead, and apart from his normal facial features, there was a vertical pupil in the center between his eyebrows. Upon hearing the boy's voice, all three eyes opened at the same time, staring at him with a cold gaze.

"Who...who are you?!"

The Sage of Six Paths gazed at the boy before him, his brows furrowing deeply, a solemn expression on his face. He said in a deep voice, "You do not exist in the history and future of ninjas!"

"Oh, that eye has this ability?"

The middle-aged man was slightly surprised. He glanced at the vertical pupil between the old man's eyebrows and said, "You can call me 'Adam.' How about we be fair? You answer one question for me, and I'll answer one question for you, okay?"

The Sage of Six Paths frowned, initially unwilling to agree to this absurd proposal.

But just as he was about to refuse, he noticed that the middle-aged man opposite him had eyes that were now glowing with a faint golden light, as hot and scorching as molten lava. An immeasurable pressure enveloped the Pure Land, giving him a momentary illusion that he was the mortal who had trespassed into the realm of gods!
"I advise you to think carefully before you answer."

Adam smiled and said slowly in a very calm tone, "You only get one chance."

The Sage of Six Paths remained silent for a long time, then nodded: "Alright."
