From Naruto onwards, I've become a dreamer.

Chapter 461 The Target: Grosser's Travelogue!
Inside the pitch-black cave, White Zetsu's eyes were bloodshot, as if they contained a deep madness.

A series of painful growls echoed through the cave.

In fact, since being promoted to Sequence 4, White Zetsu's condition has never been good; he is almost always on the verge of 'losing control'.

Rock-like gray-white scales covered half of White Zetsu's body, engraved with complex and three-dimensional mysterious runes that extended into the flesh and blood and outwards into the surrounding void, as if intertwining into something that did not belong to the real world.

"Damn it, why? What exactly am I lacking?!"

White Zetsu groaned in pain, trying to control his wandering thoughts and forcibly integrate the scales into his flesh.

Soon, the eerie gray-white scales slowly merged into the flesh and skin, disappearing completely.

"Where exactly did things go wrong?" White Zetsu gritted his teeth, his eyes bloodshot and ferocious, panting heavily. "Damn it, all the extraordinary characteristics of the 'demigod' level seem to have been activated. Just keeping them from 'going out of control' has already been a huge challenge for me!"

It had thought that after advancing to Sequence 4, a bright future awaited it.

However, reality slapped White Zetsu in the face, rudely waking him from his fantasy!

In the deep and dark ocean of the subconscious, storms and raging waves never cease, and the subconscious formed by countless beings washes over its islands of consciousness wave after wave.

Just resisting the onslaught of the subconscious ocean had already exhausted Bai Jue.

Even more terrifying is that the extraordinary characteristics that were originally contained have shown signs of 'activation', and the 'mad' thoughts that have gathered together almost caused it to completely lose control.

If it weren't for the fact that the 'audience' approach has a higher psychological resistance than other approaches, it would probably have already gone out of control by now!

Even so, Bai Jue could still clearly feel that what he had done was a drop in the ocean.

It is being dragged little by little into the abyss of 'out of control'!
"Adam, it must be Adam!" Bai Jue gritted his teeth in hatred, crushing a nearby stone in his hand. "That bastard must be hiding something. Levels above Sequence 4 cannot digest potions and resist 'madness' simply by using the impersonation method!"

We can't delay any longer; we must find Adam as soon as possible!
Otherwise, it won't be long before it completely slides into the abyss of 'out of control'!

White Zetsu's eyes gradually turned cold, concealing a barely perceptible hint of madness: "Adam! Adam! Adam!"

His goal is to surpass Adam and become the only 'Sequence Zero', the true god who controls the life and death of all beings, instead of a pitiful wretch driven mad!

Of course, it's clear that Adam alone cannot solve the problem.

So White Zetsu left the cave and followed a dark, narrow tunnel, resembling an intestine, to another cave.

The cave was dimly lit. The first thing that caught the eye was a nauseatingly strange tree, which looked like a twisted human body and was covered with blooming buds. At the center of each bud, there was a brownish-green viscous fluid, like a female reproductive organ.

Bai Jue only glanced at it, but he felt that the 'madness' that had just been suppressed seemed to be stirring again.

He hurriedly blocked out the tree's appearance from his consciousness, then used the 'Soothing' skill to gather his chaotic thoughts and calm his agitation before speaking in a hoarse voice, "Uchiha Obito, there's something I want to ask you."

"Judging from your appearance, it seems that your condition has improved a lot."

Obito Uchiha sat on the edge of the stone platform, appearing quite calm: "Speak, what is it?"

However, White Zetsu knew very well that this was only on the surface. The extent of this guy's madness even surprised it, wondering why he hadn't lost control yet.

Bai Jue took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "You should be able to sense that although Sequence 4 has stronger power, it is also more prone to getting out of control. Is there any solution?"

Why solve it?

To White Zetsu's surprise, Obito looked at him with a half-smile and gave a somewhat cryptic answer.

"I'm not joking with you." Bai Jue paused for half a second, then said, "I'm in a terrible state right now. That bastard Adam only told me how to advance to Sequence 4, but he didn't tell me how to control 'madness' after the advancement. There must be some way to fight madness!" "I'm asking you, what's wrong with madness?"

Obito Uchiha calmly rose, stroking the strange tree, his eyes filled with deep affection: "What's wrong with being immersed in a crazy world? Why be afraid of losing control? We are one, and only by sliding deeper can we get closer to 'God'!"

Who the hell wants to be a lunatic like you!
Bai Jue cursed viciously in his heart.

Fortunately, it didn't have any excessive expectations of Obito.

Can you expect a madman to tell you how not to go mad?

Obviously, that's impossible!

"Never mind, I won't ask you anymore."

Bai Jue shook his head, then revealed a somewhat bloodthirsty expression: "Let's try a different approach, dig this method out of Adam's brain!"

"Oh?"

Obito Uchiha seemed to have taken a liking to it, turning to look at White Zetsu: "So you've finally decided to go find 'Adam'?"

"Hehe, do I have any other ideas?"

White Zetsu licked his lips, concealing a hint of madness: "I originally planned to wait until the potion was fully digested before settling scores with 'Adam,' but it seems it's better to deal with it sooner rather than later!"

"Not bad, I'm growing to admire you more and more." Obito Uchiha laughed, then slammed the Uzumaki Mask over his face. The blood-red tomoe spun, radiating a chilling killing intent. "Where's Adam? Let's go straight there. It's time to completely sever those troublesome bastards from the Twilight Hermits' Society!"

Bai Jue shook his head and said, "I don't know the exact location. The only thing I know is that Adam is hidden in a book."

"a book?"

Obito Uchiha was somewhat surprised.

"That's right, it's a book."

Bai Jue nodded and said in a deep voice, "That is not an ordinary book. Adam valued that book very much. It must have been an extraordinary item created using some extraordinary properties."

Where is that book?

Obito Uchiha frowned and asked.

"The Land of Rain."

Bai Jue said.

Uchiha Sogetsu placed a piece, and the black pieces on the board melted away, suddenly opening up a tight situation.

“I won.” He chuckled and looked at Adam across from him.

“I lost.” Adam shook his head and turned his gaze to the other side: “Grossell’s Travels in the Land of Rain, what are you planning to do next?”

"Of course, we'll just sit and watch."

Uchiha Muneki smiled and said meaningfully, "There's no need to pay attention to it; everything was already destined."

“Taking advantage of this opportunity, I can also observe Grosser’s Travels.” His eyes gleamed with a faint golden light as he picked up another chess piece and placed it down. “Angelweid’s hidden tricks are bound to cause some trouble. Why not take this opportunity to give White Zetsu a big gift?”
