After my triumphs and defeats, I created multiple aliases across countless worlds.

After all this time, it's impossible for someone to just disappear.

We all need to eat, right?

There always needs to be some overlap, right?

But none of these white nights were there; the people simply vanished.

Although Jue was somewhat curious about this.

But he didn't say much, he just wanted to know where Bai Ye had gone.

But I also feel like I can't bring myself to ask that question.

If I were to say those words out loud...

Whether Bai Ye tells him or not is another matter. He has been hiding for so many years, so it must be his secret base, right?

Judging from this, Bai Ye might not actually have told him.

But that's not the point. The point is that Jue is actually very curious about this place. What kind of place is it that he can't find?

However, that depends on whether Bai Ye will speak up.

It's obviously impossible to get this answer from Bai Ye.

From this perspective, Byakuya's intelligence is definitely not like Hidan's, who has no sense of propriety and can say whatever he wants.

Even he himself found his thoughts a bit of a headache!

Even he himself doesn't yet know exactly what Bai Ye is thinking.

"Heh, is this my teammate?!"

Kisame grinned as he looked at Byakuya, clearly having thought of something as well.

Since joining the Akatsuki organization, he has learned that he has a teammate named Suzaku.

But damn it, he had never seen this person before. Kisame had never seen him since he joined the group.

Seeing this guy in front of him now, Kisame's feelings were somewhat complicated.

So this is my teammate?!

Anyone who didn't know better would have thought that bastard was already dead!

So I actually have teammates here after all!?

"Speaking of which, you bastard, I thought you were dead. I didn't expect you to still be alive!"

I was thinking I'd never have another chance to show you my art, but come on, this duel will be the last time! I'll wash away my shame from last time!

A flicker of excitement flashed in Deidara's eyes.

Ever since he was easily defeated by Byakuya, Deidara has held a grudge against him for it.

It can be said that even now, he still hasn't forgotten this matter.

I had been thinking about what would happen if Bai Ye died.

Then all of this has failed.

But given the current situation, the fact that Bai Ye is still alive makes things very interesting!

Although Bai Ye has said that he has been cultivating over the years, he must have become stronger.

But I'm not bad either, and this time I'm able to give Bai Ye a little shock.

His own strength was enough to show Bai Ye what it meant to be impressed after three days apart.

"So this guy ran away for all these years, and then just came back like this?"

Everyone had different thoughts about Bai Ye's return.

However, they didn't say much.

Payne didn't say anything, so what could they possibly object to?

However, regarding Bai Ye's return after running away for so many years, although many people in this organization do not actually feel much a sense of belonging, this behavior at least made them feel a little indignant.

But some words stuck in my throat, and I couldn't say them.

"Ah, although it's a bit hard to say, it's still a little heartbreaking to say this. What do you mean by 'running away for so many years and then coming back'? I went to cultivate! You guys don't cultivate every day, how could you understand me!"

“…”

That smug tone, though it sounds reasonable, somehow just makes me want to punch him!

The others secretly discussed this amongst themselves. Although they wanted to make a move, seeing how calm Payne remained, they couldn't help but feel a sense of admiration for him.

As expected of Pain!

They were already being overwhelmed by Bai Ye's attacks.

The result was that he was still able to remain completely unfazed!

However, they had actually thought this through.

Since Payne himself isn't saying anything.

So naturally they wouldn't say anything.

And so, an eerie silence fell.

"Is it really possible to cultivate for so many years? What kind of cultivation do you practice?"

However, although no one said anything, there was a White Zetsu here who was full of curiosity and had a hundred thousand questions.

He was just about to ask that.

However, at that time, Black Zetsu seemed to be preventing him from speaking.

So I gave up.

But now everyone is silent.

Therefore, in White Zetsu's view, this was an opportunity.

So I just asked directly.

"idiot!!!"

Black Zetsu cursed inwardly, thinking that White Zetsu really didn't want to spend even a day with him!

So, you'll die if you don't talk?

Given the current situation, Bai Ye obviously cannot tell you.

And yet you still want to ask what this specific ability is?!

You think you're saying...?

Your face is very big.

“Cultivation is all about the connection between heaven and man. Sometimes, the longer you cultivate, the longer you can sense the connection. Sometimes, the shorter you cultivate, the shorter you can sense the connection. This is something that can’t be explained in just a few words, so you wouldn’t understand!”

Bai Ye muttered this sentence in a cryptic tone, and the others silently kept it in mind.

But the next second, their expressions suddenly turned strange.

So what the hell are you talking about?!

Put it here, put it here?

Before, they were all guessing what Bai Ye meant by saying that.

So I thought about it and pondered it seriously.

But by the time Bai Ye finished speaking, they were all numb.

So all you managed to squeeze out after all that time was this one sentence?

"As expected, only an idiot would ask such a question and then be humiliated by that answer. From now on, I must get rid of that bastard, White Zetsu!!!"

Black Zetsu rubbed his forehead, speechless.

Although I had already anticipated that things would develop in a direction I didn't want to see.

But now that it has actually happened, Black Zetsu feels a sense of shame!

Chapter 263 - Akatsuki Succubus?

"It really is quite profound, isn't it? Is that really the case, Black Zetsu?"

Idiot, idiot, idiot!!

Everyone had already given up hope, and even Black Zetsu thought it was idiotic to ask such a question.

Then, White Zetsu asked another question.

The spirit medium faced this situation.

Black Zetsu just wanted to slam dunk on White Zetsu's head. As expected of a product of the Infinite Tsukuyomi, his intelligence is truly worrisome.

Black Zetsu doesn't even know what to say anymore.
