Meanwhile, Kirigakure was engulfed in flames, filled with screams and carnage. Long before, when Tensei began the Impure World Reincarnation, the Kaguya clan, who had been preparing for a long time, finally launched their attack, employing the full power of the clan in a suicidal assault on Kirigakure!
"Shikotsumyaku*Tangsong Dance!!" A member of the Kaguya clan roared, his bones bursting forth, making him appear like a warrior clad in spiked bone armor, as he lunged at a Kirigakure ninja opposite him, like a heavily armored beast viciously pouncing on its prey. The Kaguya clan, possessing the "Shikotsumyaku" bloodline limit, has always been considered invincible in close combat throughout the entire ninja world!
"Water Release: Water Transformation Technique!" The Mist Ninja was clearly aware of the Kaguya clan's formidable close-combat abilities and planned to transform his entire body into water to evade the opponent's attack before launching a counterattack!
Suddenly, the Mist Ninja's body swayed, and blood began to flow continuously from his eyes, ears, nose, and mouth!
"What's going on? What kind of ability is this? What did that Kaguya clan guy just do?" The Mist Ninja collapsed helplessly to the ground. In his last moments before death, through his blood-stained, blurred vision, he saw the Kaguya clan ninja opposite him, who, like himself, was writhing on the ground, spitting blood from all seven orifices. "Is there another enemy?" the Mist Ninja thought to himself as he fell into darkness.
Boom!! A giant foot slammed into the ground, crushing the two unfortunate souls who had died from poisoning to dust!
The highly venomous salamander paid no heed to the corpses of those dying from poisoning, continuing to follow Hanzo's orders and march step by step towards the Mizukage's office building in the center of Kirigakure. As the salamander moved, everything became utterly silent, as if it were a powerful silencer, erasing all screams and sounds of battle. However, while other silencers eliminate sound, the salamander directly eliminated the very humans who made noise!
While the Kaguya clan and Kirigakure were locked in fierce combat, Kirigakure was unable to spare any strong warriors to stop the highly poisonous salamander wreaking havoc in the village center. They could only watch helplessly as the salamander relentlessly released its venomous gas. Unfortunately, all the Kirigakure ninja were powerless against this terrifying poison, utterly unaware of any antidote, and could only watch as countless victims died, bleeding from all seven orifices!
This was the biggest trump card of Hanzo the Salamander, who was once known as the "demigod of the ninja world." When there were no medical ninjas who could make the corresponding antidote for the poison gas, this terrifying poison gas was practically invincible!
As the Mizukage's office building drew closer, Amehari couldn't help but be a little surprised: "At this point, the Third Mizukage still hasn't made a move?"
While disguised as a noodle shop waiter, Tianqing had already confirmed that the Third Mizukage hadn't left Kirigakure, but was still holed up in the Mizukage's office building. However, Tianqing never imagined that the Third Mizukage, as the head of Kirigakure, would dare to sit idly by while his villagers suffered heavy casualties, like an old tortoise that never shows its face, cowering in that Mizukage's office building!
What a piece of trash! Tian Qing's contempt for the Third Mizukage instantly intensified. Back in the original story, the elderly Hiruzen Sarutobi was always at the forefront, leading the Anbu with his weapon, never fleeing or retreating even in death. Compared to that, this Third Mizukage was far inferior!
"Fine, if you're not coming out, then I'm going in!"
Considering that Hanzo the Salamander is now only 20% of his former strength, he would be easily killed by several Jonin working together once he leaves the protection of the poisonous salamander, causing the summoned poisonous salamander to disappear. Therefore, Ameharu ordered Hanzo the Salamander to stay a short distance away and launch indiscriminate poison gas attacks on anyone who tried to approach, while he himself went alone into the Mizukage's office building to meet the perpetually reclusive Third Mizukage and see what he and the Uchiha Madara hiding behind the scenes were up to!

Chapter Twenty: The Night of the Undead * Rising from the dead is a glorious tradition of the Uchiha
On the day when the weather cleared and Kimimaro was rampaging through Kirigakure with Hanzo the Salamander and the Poisonous Salamander, trying to "mediate" the two sides that were locked in a deadly battle, Kimimaro let out a long sigh of relief in the dungeon of the Kaguya clan. He took off his clothes, which were soaked with sweat, and walked out of the dungeon.
The Kaguya clan guards who were originally responsible for guarding the dungeon had long since disappeared. After opening the dungeon according to the clan leader's orders and leaving behind the mission manual, combat clothing, and weapons, these guards rushed to the battlefield. For these warlike Kaguya clan members, the allure of the battlefield far outweighed the boring task of guarding the dungeon.
Kimimaro ate slowly, changing into clean clothes as he did so. After glancing at the mission log, he slowly walked down the dungeon steps towards the surface. Although Kimimaro had always been considered the Kaguya clan's secret weapon and had carried out many combat missions under the clan leader's orders, this time, he didn't want to rush into the battlefield to carry out his killing mission so quickly.
The Kaguya clan's territory was now completely deserted, without a trace of anyone in sight. In this battle, the Kaguya clan had unhesitatingly adopted a frenzied tactic of "all-out attack," with men, women, and children of the entire clan joining the fight without exception. For these warlike Kaguya people, dying on the battlefield was a great honor.
Kimimaro walked step by step. This mission was for the Kaguya clan to attack the large nation of Kirigakure with the strength of the entire clan. Such an attempt, like an ant trying to swallow an elephant, would likely not end well. Although Kimimaro didn't care about his own life or death, at this moment, he suddenly wanted to take a few more glances at his hometown, as a way of making up for the regrets he usually felt.
Then, in the silence, Kimimaro heard some faint sounds.
"Is it a thief who broke into the clan's territory while no one was around, looking for valuables?" Kimimaro muttered to himself. Driven by curiosity, he quietly followed them to see what was going on.
They were two ordinary people, dressed like ordinary villagers. Although they tried their best to keep their movements quiet and conceal the sound they made, they were, after all, two ordinary people who had not received any ninjutsu training. What seemed like a silent sound to them was so noisy to Kimimaro.
"I've checked them all, and I can confirm that everyone in the Kaguya clan has set off!" someone said excitedly.
"Excellent! They've all set off! Everything is exactly as the Evil God predicted! The Evil God didn't deceive us!" another person said happily, his face flushed red with excitement, seemingly because the Evil God's prophecy had come true.
"Then let's report to the evil god quickly! I can't wait to receive the glory bestowed by the evil god!" The believer's face was distorted with excitement, and his fanatical expression was no different from that of a complete madman.
"Praise be to our God!!!" Amidst the fervent chants, the two believers plunged daggers into each other's chests. Then, the daggers, having absorbed the believers' life essence, began to operate, spraying yet another blood-red Pikachu head into the night sky. However, this time, without any other ninjas using ranged ninjutsu to interfere, the Pikachu's design began to change after a while, the red circle on its cheek radiating dazzling arcs of electricity!
Kimimaro, who witnessed all of this, was somewhat surprised. He keenly sensed that the arc of electricity seemed to contain some meaning: "Is this a signal being sent to someone?" However, the young Kimimaro was obviously not interested in this. Therefore, after confirming the deaths of the two believers, he turned and left, rushing towards the Kirigakure village, which was engulfed in flames, ready to carry out his killing mission.
........................
The distant land of hot springs.
At this time, the central square of Tangren Village had been completely transformed into a huge sacrificial site by the followers of the evil god. A large number of blazing torches shone brightly in the night sky, and a large number of believers dressed in black robes prostrated on the ground, surrounding the central sacrificial altar.
The black-robed bishop sat silently on the platform. He had been sitting there silently ever since the sacrificial ceremony began, only waving his hand to signal the believers to keep praying to the evil god and not to stop.
Among the many believers below the stage, Yekura and Sasori, disguised as cult members and prostrate on the ground, were whispering to each other. As ninjas, they could communicate using only lip movements, without making any sound, so the believers nearby had no idea that these two heretics were spouting nonsense at the black-robed bishop.
"It's been so long! What is this guy in black robes doing?" Ye Cang said, quite annoyed. "In the middle of the night, he suddenly demanded that all the believers gather here, but after we were all gathered, he didn't say a word and just left us here to starve? Has this old ghost in black robes gone mad?"
"Who knows? Aren't all cultists this crazy? Maybe they just suddenly got the urge to watch a ritual?" Sasori replied, his words full of disdain for the cult. As a ninja, he naturally looked down on these rambling, eccentric cultists.
All those so-called tricks and deceptions throughout history, such as "retrieving objects from a distance, boiling them in oil, and chewing ghost bones," are nothing in front of ninjas who possess chakra. Therefore, ninjas naturally despise these cult lunatics who use tricks and deception to pretend to be gods and ghosts.
Finally, when the Pikachu head, etched into the night sky by the two evil god's followers with their lives in the distant land of the Kaguya clan in the Land of Water, began to crackle with electricity on its cheek, the black-robed bishop suddenly made a move: "Enough! Finally enough!"
Everything was going perfectly! The black-robed bishop thought excitedly. The previous massacres by the Evil God Church in the Land of Hot Water, coupled with the current massacres in the Land of Water, had provided the Evil God with enough death energy and resentment! To this end, he had even sacrificed all of the Evil God Church's followers in the Land of Water to instigate conflict between the Hidden Mist Village and the Kaguya Clan in advance, all to gather the death energy and resentment needed to contact the Evil God!
"Believers! Intensify your prayers to the evil god! Men, bring up the offerings from the dungeon! The time has come to offer sacrifices to the evil god!" the black-robed bishop shouted.
"Praise be to our God!!!" a large number of believers responded loudly.
........................
In the deep underground prison of Yugakure, Hidan lay motionless, staring at the sumptuous feast laid out before him, his heart filled with despair: "Is this what they call the Last Supper? It's over, this is truly the end for me!"
During the more than half a month of imprisonment, the followers of the evil god strictly monitored Hidan and other sacrificial offerings. In particular, to prevent Hidan, a ninja with chakra, from escaping, they would inject him with a drug every now and then, making him weak and unable to extract chakra. They also sent people to monitor him 24 hours a day to prevent him from using any underhanded tricks.
"Is my life really going to end here?" Hidan cried out in his heart, looking towards the cell next to him, intending to look at the other sacrifices and try to find some help.
Previously, they had each been imprisoned in separate cells, unable to communicate with each other. Only tonight were they brought to a row of adjacent cells, and Hidan was able to see for the first time his two sacrificial friends who shared the same fate as him, referred to as "Sacrificial Friends".
In the cell on the left, a large, obese man was devouring his meal. Hidan recognized him; he was a former elder of the Hidden Hot Spring Village. In Hidan's memory, this fat man seemed to have always coveted the position of Hot Spring Kage, but for various reasons, he had never succeeded. Later, rumors even circulated in the village that he was close to the Jashin Church, probably hoping to use their power to usurp the throne and become Hot Spring Kage.
Now, however, the once cunning fat man's eyes had lost all their former shrewdness, leaving only a hazy, primal instinct. He ate voraciously while muttering a string of nonsensical, strange words: "Nineteen times a day... hehehe... come on, let's have some fun... hehe... catch me and I'll let you hehehe... ah! BOY♂NEXT♂DOOR!..."
"Elder? Elder?" Hidan tried calling out softly a few times, but unfortunately received no response, thwarting his attempt to find allies.
Left with no other choice, Hidan turned his head and looked at the cell to his right, hoping to find a "friend" with whom he could have a normal conversation.
It was a "person" lying on the ground, dressed in filthy clothes, on which the Uchiha clan crest could be faintly seen. His skin was abnormally pale, with small spots resembling lividity, and there was no rise or fall of his chest; his entire body exuded an aura of death. Although the followers of the evil god had been performing embalming on his body for days, flies still occasionally buzzed around him.
In front of this "person" was a large plate of food exactly the same as what Hidan had on his plate.
"Isn't this just a corpse? Seriously, offering a corpse as a sacrifice is like feeding an evil god expired food! Aren't you afraid the evil god will get diarrhea and punish you?" Hidan mentally complained. "Don't you have any conscience? And why did you even leave this dead man a last supper?!"
............
Keep collecting and recommending!
Chapter Twenty-One: The Night of the Undead * The Sudden Descent of Doomsday
Although Hidan didn't dare to voice his inner thoughts aloud, the guard beside him probably noticed Hidan's strange look and spoke up: "This was specifically instructed by His Highness the Bishop. That over there is the corpse of the legendary elite clan: the Uchiha clan. As an elite clan, isn't it normal for them to be able to eat after death? The food placed in front of him was constantly decreasing when we weren't paying attention!"
"Seriously, do you guys have some kind of misunderstanding about the Uchiha clan? The idea of someone coming back to life after death is ridiculous! Do you think the Uchiha clan is a race of the dead, with people constantly resurrecting?" Hidan's mind raced with thoughts of countless curses. He silently added, "As for the food that keeps disappearing, don't you guys have any sense of proportion? There are so many rats in the dungeon; what's so strange about them taking a bite when you're not looking?!"
However, under the guard's sharp gaze, Hidan ultimately did not dare to refute. He was forced to eat his last dinner in bitterness, like a poultry waiting to be sold eating feed at the last moment to increase its weight so that it could be sold for more money later.
Finally, after the agonizing mealtime, noisy footsteps echoed outside the dungeon, along with the order Hidan least wanted to hear: "Quickly, bring all the offerings up! The bishop has ordered the sacrifice to begin!"
"Huh? So fast?" Hidan shuddered and began to frantically move his body, which was paralyzed by the drug, preparing to struggle one last time. After all, at this critical moment of life and death, no one would be lazy and think about slacking off and waiting to work hard again. They would only wriggle frantically like ants doused with boiling water, trying to find a chance to escape.
Unfortunately, the burly guard broke through Hidan's last resistance with a single slap, lifted him out like an eagle carrying a chick, and walked towards the altar in the center of the village. His movements were incredibly smooth, showing that he was a seasoned veteran with many years of experience killing chickens.
"It's over, it's really over!" Hidan's heart was filled with despair. Like a helpless salted fish, he slumped down in his heart and said, "If only I were immortal, I could still jump off the stage alive and kicking after becoming a sacrifice!!"
Amid the prayers of a large number of believers, the black-robed bishop placed the corpses of Hidan, the senile obese elder, and Uchiha Obito on the altar. He then respectfully took out a scroll, preparing to read aloud the words of praise for the evil god recorded on it.
"Finally, I've finally waited for this day!!" The black-robed bishop was extremely excited. Ever since he obtained this scroll, he had been working hard to realize the ritual recorded on it. "Everyone knows that long ago, a couple founded the Village of Hot Springs with the help of a certain scroll, but probably no one knows that the scroll actually recorded a great ritual to establish a connection with the evil god. However, after the ninja couple used the power of the scroll to establish the village, they did not dare to continue the ritual. Instead, they sealed the scroll away and established a rule that all future Hot Springs Kings could only be ordinary people, because ordinary people simply could not withstand the power of this scroll. Once they viewed it, they would die instantly!"
As a former member of the Tang Ninja, the Black-Robed Bishop accidentally opened the scroll and gained the power it granted. He then began to travel around to develop the Church of the Evil God, all with the aim of reopening this long-sealed ritual!
Then, the bishop loudly recited the prayer on the scroll, word by word: "Remember: It is not the dead who sleep eternally, but even death itself that vanishes in the mysterious eternity!"
Instantly, amidst the bishop's loud prayers, the deathly aura and resentment of the Land of Hot Water and the Land of Water surged into the sky! As if by some strange coordinate, it attracted a bizarre power! The night sky that had been shrouding the Village of Hot Water grew even darker, as if some extremely evil thing was lurking in the night sky, looking down at the people on the ground with malice, making everyone shudder!
The feeling was as if an enormous monster, with eyes the size of the entire world, was curiously looking at the tiny humans in the Land of Hot Water, like a giant observing particles under a microscope. Due to the absolute difference in power between the two sides, even the slightest bit of malice in its subconscious made everyone present feel that death was imminent!
However, this extremely uncomfortable feeling only lasted for a moment, and then everything returned to normal, as if it had just been an illusion. Perhaps the terrible god glanced at this world and immediately lost interest and left.
Immediately, everyone present breathed a sigh of relief. It was as if something in their minds had snapped open. They felt as if they were seeing a brand new world, like thirsty fish suddenly entering the ocean, or birds that had been confined in cages soaring in the sky again. Everyone found themselves reborn.
"This is the grace of the evil god!" the black-robed bishop shouted. He was so happy that he even wanted to dance freely to celebrate. So he danced. That's what he thought, and that's what he did. The black-robed bishop ripped off his black robe, revealing his body covered in scales and slime. He waved his two arms, which had completely turned into tentacles, and danced joyfully like an Indian man who would break into a dance at the drop of a hat.
"Praise be to our God!" The believers below the stage were completely oblivious to the bishop's awkward dance, still immersed in the great power of the evil god. Many believers trembled all over, wriggling like slime monsters, and some even began to grow many slender tentacles, swaying excitedly in the air.
"What's going on? What are these people doing? It's just a strange ritual, why are they so excited? People who don't know the situation might think they're having an epileptic seizure!" Ye Cang said casually, mingling among the believers. She felt a little dizzy, so she shook her head vigorously and scratched her third eye on her forehead.
"Who knows? After all, these guys are just ordinary people. They might not be able to withstand such a strange ritual." Scorpion replied, equally dizzy, then stretched out his two arms behind his back and scratched himself.
However, neither Yekura nor Sasori had any intention of interrupting the ceremony. They just stood there in a daze, chatting aimlessly. However, the content of their conversation became completely unrelated. They just kept talking, as if they were talking at cross purposes, having a conversation that no one else could understand.
Then, without anyone noticing, the three offerings on the platform were enveloped in flesh and blood that appeared out of nowhere, forming three eggs made of flesh and blood that writhed rhythmically like hearts, as if something was hatching inside.
........................
"What was that sound just now?!" As that terrifying malice descended upon the distant Land of Hot Springs, Ameharu, who had just entered the Mizukage's office building, suddenly heard a shrill cry, like the cry of an infant who has not yet developed consciousness and instinctively senses danger.
"This voice is the cry for help from the world as it senses its impending doom!" As a listener who experienced the collapse of the One Piece world, Tian Qing was naturally familiar with this voice. "What's going on? What happened? It's only the Third Shinobi World War. The two main characters, Naruto and Sasuke, who are always at odds with each other, haven't even been born yet. The real main storyline hasn't even started. How can the world suddenly be ending?"
"There's an opening!!" Taking advantage of Ame's distraction, two Mist Ninjas sprang out from the shadows and viciously slashed at Ame! As the Third Mizukage's personal guard, they had been lying in wait, waiting for this rare opportunity!
"You're courting death!" Even though Tian Qing was slightly distracted, how could she, as a powerful individual who had just embarked on the path of divinity, not notice the sudden attack from the enemy around her? If it were a sneak attack from a Kage-level expert, she might be a little flustered, but two mere Jonin were no match for her!
With a nimble movement, Tian Qing dodged the attacks of the two Mist Ninja blocking her way, while simultaneously slicing open their throats with a kunai in her hand: "Looks like I need to speed things up; I need to deal with this situation quickly!"
"Full power, Sage Mode! Summoning *Obelisk the Colossus* Gear Second!"
After directly entering Sage Mode, Tianqing summoned Obelisk the Tormentor in the form of "Gum-Gum Fruit * Gear Second Mode". The Tormentor, which was originally as tall as a mountain, was greatly compressed after entering Gear Second Mode, becoming the size of an adult strong man and floating behind Tianqing.
However, when her body shrank, the giant warrior's combat power exploded. This was the result of Tian Qing's hard work for more than 20 years. In addition, with her body of a novice god, Tian Qing was even confident that she could compete with the Six Paths Immortal!
Besides Tian Qing, another person also sensed that terrifying malice.
In the Land of Rain, in the Akatsuki's meeting room, Nagato Yuki looked up from her book and expressionlessly turned towards the Land of Hot Springs: "Should we process this information signal?"

Chapter Twenty-Two: The Night of the Undead * Uchiha Madara and the Impure World Reincarnation
In many games, the Demon King's Castle is a massive labyrinth, where the Demon King resides deep within, awaiting the arrival of the hero. Heroes who enter the castle must navigate the labyrinth countless times to reach the Demon King. Even if the Demon King's room is separated by only a door, heroes must detour through the left hall to obtain the key, the right hall to find the secret key, and finally the back hall to retrieve the password… In short, only after traversing the entire Demon King's Castle and collecting a vast amount of items can the hero open the final gate and face the Demon King in a fair and square confrontation.
In her past life, whenever Tian Qing played games like this, she couldn't help but suspect the sinister intentions of the game developers: "Isn't this just killing players' time? Can't the hero just go straight in and kill the Demon King? Besides, why make the Demon King's castle so complicated and difficult to navigate? Does the Demon King himself never need to leave the castle?!"
"So, as a hero, of course, you need an innovative spirit!" Tianqing muttered to himself, looking at the Mizukage's office not far away. Originally, according to the design of this office building, although the Mizukage's office was located in the middle of the building and could be seen with a simple glance, getting into the office required taking a rather circuitous route. As for the idea of using a ninja's superhuman jumping and climbing abilities to jump directly up, this was the office of the village chief! Which Mist Ninja would dare to take such a disrespectful action?
"Unfortunately, I'm not a Mist Ninja, so there's no need for me to show you any respect!" Tianqing said, taking out the snake-shaped sword hanging at her waist.
"Celestial Art: Boiling Bone Cannon!!"
The powerful white flash erupted and shot headlong toward the Mizukage's office, easily piercing through several layers of defensive barriers and directly blowing the roof off the office!
"Did it miss? Was it because of those defensive barriers? It seems these Mist Ninja still vividly remember the cannon shot I fired years ago that shattered the Third Mizukage's body, so they specially added a defensive barrier outside the office," Tianqing guessed. "It seems this Third Mizukage is much more cautious now."
