From Naruto onwards, I've become a dreamer.

Chapter 447 A Shocking Secret: Adam Was Never a God

The second time!

Orochimaru's thrusting motion froze once again.

He suppressed his anger: "What secret?"

Gazing at the sword blade engraved with mysterious runes, Bai Zetsu swallowed hard, his expression stiff as he said, "It's about 'Adam.' If you let me go, I swear I will never harm you afterwards, and I will tell you this secret!"

The secret about Adam?!

The members of the Twilight Hermit Society were once again shocked by Bai Jue's words.

It has to be said that the bait that Bai Jue threw out this time really tempted the members of the Twilight Hermit Society.

Two days later, Onoki's eyes flickered, and he lowered his voice, saying, "How about... we listen to what it has to say?"

"No."

Mikoto Uchiha's eyes flashed with murderous intent as she refused without hesitation: "It must be killed!"

As she spoke, she once again conjured a blazing white light spear, wrapped in jet-black Amaterasu flames, and hurled it at White Zetsu's 'weak point'.

The jet-black musket, as gleaming as a stream of light, was about to pierce through the White Zetsu when it was intercepted by a Dust Release technique.

A pure, dazzling light burst forth, disintegrating the blazing white musket.

"What do you mean?"

Mikoto Uchiha stared coldly at Onoki, her body seemingly radiating a terrifying aura of malevolence.

"Don't get so agitated. I just think it's necessary for us to learn about Lord 'Adam'."

Two days later, Onoki said calmly, "Besides, Lord Adam has been missing for so long. What if the secret he revealed could awaken Lord Adam?"

His reasoning was perfectly legitimate, effectively shutting up Mikoto Uchiha.

"And you, Orochimaru?" Onoki looked at Orochimaru, a hint of fear involuntarily showing deep in his eyes.

Among the Twilight Hermits, Orochimaru was the one he feared the most.

"What if I don't agree?"

Orochimaru stared at him expressionlessly, gripping the sword in his hand tightly.

Two days later, Onoki was silent for a moment, then smiled and said, "Of course, let's count according to the vote, how about that?"

Then, he shifted his gaze to Xiao Nan: "What's your opinion?"

"reject."

Xiao Nan shook her head decisively and directly.

For a fleeting moment, anger flashed in Onoki's eyes, but it quickly disappeared without a trace. He nodded calmly, "Alright, since no one is willing, let's kill it using the original method."

Orochimaru didn't hesitate any longer and handed over the sword engraved with runes.

Just as White Zetsu was about to die by the sword, the space suddenly distorted violently, like a vortex.

Then, a person suddenly appeared from the vortex and grabbed the Kusanagi sword with his bare hands.

The man gripped the Kusanagi sword and suddenly snapped it open with force.

Click!

The artifact, hailed as a divine weapon left behind by the Sage of Six Paths, was so easily broken.

The mysterious runes engraved on it lost their spirituality and became dim.

The man held the broken sword tip and threw it backhand.

boom!
Orochimaru was caught off guard and was pierced through the body by the sword tip.

He was immediately sent flying backward, blood gushing from his chest, before crashing heavily to the ground.

The whole process took less than a second, as if it happened in an instant, so much so that no one else had time to react.

It wasn't until Orochimaru landed beside them that they suddenly realized what was happening and looked at the person who had suddenly appeared.

Wearing a vortex-like mask and a strange, blood-stained garment, he exuded a twisted and terrifying aura.

"Uchiha Obito!"

The members of the Twilight Hermit Society were immediately horrified. "Gentlemen, it's been a long time."

Obito Uchiha tilted his head, his only eye peering coldly through his mask as he stared at them: "I've been looking for the Twilight Hermits for a long time."

"They arrived so quickly?!" Uchiha Mikoto was somewhat shocked.

According to the original plan, the Sage of Six Paths was to be the main force to restrain Obito Uchiha.

White Fang, as a backup force, possesses both purification and light attributes due to the Twilight Giant pathway, and has extremely strong defensive capabilities, making him the most suitable for the 'Bound One' pathway.

It was originally estimated that the two of them should be able to gain at least half an hour to an hour.

But now it seems that it hasn't even been half an hour!

"You guys did a great job."

Obito possessed a manic aura that sent chills down one's spine: "Those two guys are indeed troublesome, but unfortunately, below the Saint level, no matter how powerful they are, they make no difference to me."

Saints, hailed as 'demigods,' are completely transcendental to the level of humanity.

Even the Sage of Six Paths paid a heavy price to barely hold on for more than ten minutes.

"withdraw!"

Orochimaru clutched his wounded abdomen and shouted with difficulty.

The moment Obito Uchiha appeared, it meant that the plan had failed.

Even if all the members of the Twilight Hermit Society were at their peak, they might not be able to defeat the 'Saint,' let alone in their current state.

If we continue to persist, I'm afraid we'll all die here.

"Want to go?"

Obito Uchiha grinned maliciously, seemingly transcending space, his arms wrapped with countless vengeful spirits, his shrill cries shaking the spiritual realm: "Leave them all here!"

However, Orochimaru had anticipated this and tore the scroll to shreds.

hum! ! !
A dazzling power of light spread out like a ring.

Upon contact with that blazing ring of light, all the cursed spirits vanished, and the intense heat of the sun forced Obito back.

"The Solar Path?!" Obito's pupils constricted, and a terrifying killing intent appeared on his face: "Good, I didn't expect you to have a trick up your sleeve!"

Orochimaru bit his finger, drawing blood, and slammed it heavily onto the ground: "Reverse Summoning Jutsu!"

The intricate patterns of the spirit communication spell unfolded, encompassing all the members of the Twilight Hermit Society.

Just then, White Zetsu suddenly looked at them and roared menacingly, "As a reward for defeating me, I'll tell you the secret about 'Adam'—listen carefully, 'Adam' was never a 'god'!!!"

boom!
Obito tore apart the blazing white halo, but the members of the Twilight Hermit Society had already completely disappeared.

"Hmph, you won't be so lucky next time."

Obito sneered, then turned to look at White Zetsu, his eyes flashing with a fierce light: "How are your ritual preparations going?"

"Almost there, almost there."

Bai Jue swallowed hard and said stiffly, "I can take advantage of this opportunity to advance to Sequence Four."

"Very good, not bad."

Obito grinned and said, "Once you advance to Sequence Four, we'll go find 'Adam,' you haven't forgotten, have you?"

"Of course I haven't forgotten."

Upon hearing this, White Zetsu revealed a sinister expression: "I will lead you to 'Adam,' then kill him, and we will take his place!"

Inside the pitch-black cave.

The members of the Twilight Hermit Society were brought back by reverse psychic communication.

However, Bai Jue's words before leaving left everyone uneasy, giving rise to their own thoughts.

The statement that Adam was never God is like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, creating ripples that spread outwards.

But no one noticed that deep within Onoki's pupils, a glint of ambition flickered.
