The world I hear is completely different from yours.

There were no traces of human activity on the island's surface. Only halfway up the central hill was a cave with obvious signs of human excavation. A slightly warm and fishy smell wafted out of the cave, and no one knew where it led.

Tianqing and Orochimaru stood in front of the cave entrance, looking at the pitch-black cave inside. Neither of them intended to bravely walk in. Putting aside whether there were any traps or mechanisms inside, what if the cave entrance was actually the open mouth of some giant monster? If they rashly walked in, wouldn't they be like voluntarily delivering takeout to someone's door?

"Summoning Serpents!"

Suddenly, at Orochimaru's summons, countless snakes of all kinds emerged, including flower snakes, giant pythons, white snakes, and cobras, all rushing into the dark cave as if they were people desperately squeezing into a ticket hall during the Spring Festival travel rush, regardless of whether it was a mountain of knives or a cauldron of boiling oil, or something that was being fried or cooked, they rushed in without any regard for the dangers inside.

Subsequently, the cave echoed with the screams of snakes dying as they stepped into various traps, their blood splattering everywhere!

Yes, although snakes don't have vocal cords and can only make strange hissing sounds, today was the first time Tian Qing discovered that a snake's hiss could contain so much emotion. Speaking of which, weren't these snakes in the Earth Dragon Cave incredibly unlucky to have chosen Orochimaru as the subject of their summoning contract? It's truly a wonder that the White Snake Sage didn't swallow Orochimaru whole to vent his anger on his snake offspring.

Finally, thanks to the "efforts" of the large swarm of snakes, all the traps set up by the evil cult in the cave were violently broken. After confirming that the road ahead was basically safe, Tianqing and Orochimaru entered the cave that had been cleared by the snakes.

"According to the Third Mizukage, the Jashin Church doesn't actually have the ability to reach the bottom of the cave. They only worship in the first half. The traps that the snakes broke were set up by these Jashin believers to prevent outsiders from entering. In the second half of the cave, since no believers have gone in, there are no traps. The Third Mizukage reached the deepest part of the cave alone, saw the barrier inscription carved on the rock wall, and then, filled with inexplicable fear, hurriedly left." Orochimaru repeated the Third Mizukage's information, directing the snakes to lead the way.

"So, this cave is actually very deep? So deep that even ordinary people who are followers of evil gods can't go down, and only the Impure World Mizukage with immortality and unlimited chakra can reach the bottom?" Tianqing guessed.

“That should be it,” Orochimaru replied, licking his lips with his long tongue. It seemed that the strange cave had piqued his curiosity again, making him particularly excited. “By the way, Tianqing, you haven’t eaten anything yet, have you? How about trying my snake meat barbecue when you’re resting later? Jiraiya and Tsunade both raved about my cooking skills!”

To reiterate, these snakes who signed a summoning contract with Orochimaru are incredibly unlucky! Thinking this, Tianqing happily replied, "Is it really delicious? Then I definitely want to try your cooking later!"

There was no way around it; although rabbits were adorable, rabbit meat was truly delicious, especially the slightly spicy sauerkraut rabbit meat that Tianqing had in her previous life—the tangy and refreshing taste was simply indescribable. Similarly, although she felt a little sorry for the snakes' treatment, if Jiraiya and Tsunade both said Orochimaru's grilled snake meat was delicious, then Tianqing would reluctantly give it a try.

After all, snakes aren't endangered animals, nor are they as good-looking as cats or dogs, and they can't transform into beauties like the White Snake Lady to repay a debt of gratitude. Therefore, there aren't any fanatical fans or animal protection organizations that jump out to do bizarre things like stopping cars to rescue snakes, smashing up restaurants that sell snakes, or kneeling down to apologize to snakes on behalf of humans. This shows how important appearance is. If there's anyone to blame, it's just that snakes don't have the same good looks as cats and dogs.

Chapter Thirty-Two: Planting Explosives While You Transform to Blow You Away

The cave was indeed very deep. Even with Tian Qing and Orochimaru's speed, it took them quite a while, after eating a barbecue of snake meat, to finally reach the deepest part of the cave. Compared to the cold and damp first half of the cave, the deepest part had penetrated deep into the mantle layer. The constantly rising geothermal heat made the entire cave extremely hot, while the fiery red lava flowing past the cave's side from time to time served as lighting, illuminating the pitch-black cave.

Finally, Ame and Orochimaru saw the "barrier technique" engraved in the deepest part of the cave.

"Bullshit!! This is some kind of demonic barrier technique!!" Tianqing's expression changed drastically as he sensed the aura emanating from the pattern that drove countless souls mad. "This is clearly a magic circle used for sacrifices to something! Those damned evil god followers made a deal with the Third Mizukage just to trick him into becoming a sacrifice. If the Third Mizukage hadn't already been resurrected as a dead man by Edo Tensei, he probably would have been completely bewitched by this magic circle and never been able to get out! Seriously, wasn't the Third Mizukage incredibly gullible?"

Boom!! Upon sensing the presence of living beings, the eerie pattern unleashed an invisible mental shock, attempting to distort the minds of those who approached, driving them into a state of madness and hallucination, thus making them willingly become the pattern's energy source. This mental shock was exceptionally bizarre; wherever it went, it not only directly attacked the human spirit but also completely distorted the real-world cave scene. The originally dark stone walls and scorching lava transformed into pure white jade and flowing wine; the originally muddy soil and rotten moss became fragrant cakes and delicious roast meat, as if instantly transporting one to a legendary paradise flowing with honey and milk.

"This mental shock, there's no mistake! It's emanating from it!" Tian Qing said, seemingly oblivious to the illusion before her. As a powerful being who had just begun to walk the path of divinity, she was already immune to such low-level mental shocks. Tian Qing was no longer the little girl who would have her spirit shattered at its mere glance. After so many years of cultivation, Tian Qing could finally stand upright before even a trace of its aura, and thus had the initial qualifications to seek revenge.

"Although it was just a faint aura unconsciously emitted by it, it could still cause an extreme mental shock to any ordinary person who witnessed it, instantly dropping their SAN value to the bottom and completely losing themselves. Only ninjas with greater power than ordinary people could withstand this aura for a little longer," Tianqing thought to herself, turning to look at Orochimaru standing to the side.

As a powerful ninja shrouded in the halo of a savior, Orochimaru was not greatly affected by the mental shock. He still looked at the distorted pattern in front of him with great curiosity, and even tried to attack the pattern, but was blocked by some kind of force.

“We’re late. If we had arrived earlier, we could have destroyed the pattern ourselves. But now it has absorbed enough power and begun the summoning ritual. We can only attack it after the summoning is over,” Tian Qing explained calmly, as if she were very familiar with the situation.

In her previous life, while using her identity as a civil servant to investigate "it," Tian Qing had witnessed far too many similar summoning rituals. Various believers attempted to establish a connection with "it" through these summoning symbols, trying to obtain "it's" power. In the end, without exception, those believers were infected by "it's" power. The lucky ones had their life forms distorted, living as monsters from then on, while the unlucky ones immediately collapsed and died.

Countless wisps of black mist surged from the pattern, swirling and coalescing until they finally revealed a tall figure. It was a yellow humanoid creature with extremely strong muscles and four massive, thick arms. It had a pair of long ears on its head, resembling a Pikachu's head combined with a monstrous body. However, the face of the originally cute Pikachu was now full of ferocious flesh, with a gaping maw full of fangs.

"Ready, Tianqing, time to go!" During the time when they couldn't launch an attack, Tianqing and Orochimaru weren't idle, nor did they stand there foolishly watching the other transform. Instead, they set up a large number of explosive spikes around the cave, waiting to give the other a hard time later.

In reality, battles aren't turn-based with each other taking turns, nor do they stop to wait for you when you're not attacking, and there's no such thing as an invincible transformation. All you do is race against time to create every advantage you can to kill your opponent!

After taking one last look at the muscular Pikachu in the black mist, Tianqing turned and left with Orochimaru, quickly running back to the surface along the original path. Compared to their cautious and slow progress when descending into the cave, this return journey was much faster. Since they had already confirmed the safety of the route, Tianqing and Orochimaru were able to set off at full speed.

boom!!

A muffled explosion rang out, followed by the entire cave beginning to shake precariously. Large amounts of debris detached from the cave walls, and magma poured into the cave from the surrounding cracks. Under the concentrated explosions of numerous detonators at the bottom of the cave, this bottomless cave began to collapse! At this moment, Tianqing and Orochimaru had only managed to escape a short distance!

"Summoning Manda!!"

"Damn it, Orochimaru, you bastard! What kind of hell have you summoned me to this time?!" With a roar, a giant python used its massive body to burst through the narrow cave, and then, relying on its innate ability to dig, it carried Orochimaru and Ame to the surface at high speed!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Amidst the continuous explosions, the deep cave collapsed completely, with massive amounts of lava and seawater pouring in, burying everything inside deep underground.

"Is it over?" After Manda brought Tensei and Orochimaru back to the ground, Orochimaru took deep breaths of the fresh air and asked to himself.

Just as Tian Qing was about to say something, a thick bolt of lightning shot straight into the sky from the depths of the earth! Like a giant dragon of lightning rising from the earth to the sky, it roared and completely destroyed everything in its path!

Superpower LV6, Electromagnetic Cannon!!!

"Long time no see, Tianqing!!" The yellow figure said in a deep voice amidst the lightning that illuminated the sky and earth.

Chapter Thirty-Three: The Savior on the Verge of Collapse

"I really didn't want to see you like this! Pikachu Thunder Roar!!" Tianqing looked at the giant yellow man in front of her and reminded Orochimaru beside her: "Prepare for battle, Orochimaru. 'It's' power is too great. It's impossible for it to appear in this world. Therefore, what was attracted by the summoning circle this time is just a lackey whose mind has been twisted by 'it'!"

"You lackeys whose minds have been twisted by 'it'?! What a ridiculous statement! In that case, you will die a horrible death today, the most horrible death ever, a death so terrible it's unbelievable!" Pikachu*Thunder Roar clenched its four fists, its blood-red eyes filled with murderous intent, and glared savagely at Tensei and Orochimaru. The immense power within its body continuously leaked out, causing arcs of electricity to flash in the air!

Without a word, Tian Qing put on a little red hat just like the one worn by a certain Pokémon Trainer, and using ventriloquism to imitate the powerful language his former friend used to love, he said, "Hehehe! You beast, you want to kill me? But I'm afraid you're not fucking good enough!!"

Boom!!! Lightning erupted!! The arcs of electricity that had been flashing around Pikachu's Thunder Roar suddenly transformed into countless electric snakes, dancing in the air!

"I've finally found you! Little Zhi!!! This time, I'm going to blast you to smithereens! ...I'll blast you to smithereens without mercy!" Pikachu* Thunder Roar stared intently at Tian Qing, who was wearing a little red hat, completely unaware that the girl-like Tian Qing and the burly Pokémon trainer Little Zhi had completely different appearances.

"Just a red hat and a few words, and you can't tell me apart from Xiaozhi?" Tianqing looked at the other person with a slightly sad expression, secretly feeling sorry for her former friend: "It seems that you two ultimately couldn't resist 'its' temptation and have completely sunk into the darkness!"

"Now!" Taking advantage of the distraction caused by Pikachu*Thunderroar and Ame-no-Kage exchanging barbs, Orochimaru unleashed Manda's fury! The massive Manda lunged forward at incredible speed, its gaping maw snapping down on Pikachu*Thunderroar like a small mountain, crashing down on its opponent with lightning speed!

Under the sunlight, the massive shadow of Mandalay enveloped Pikachu*Thunderroar, plunging the surrounding area into darkness once again. The enormous size difference between the two made everyone who saw it think that Pikachu*Thunderroar would be crushed into a pulp in the next moment!

"Get out of my way, you piece of trash! This is the destiny that God has given you!" In that instant, Pikachu roared, and his four thick arms swung up from bottom to top at the same time, delivering four uppercuts with a natural and effortless movement. All martial arts under heaven have risen from the dragon!

Lightning roared through the heavens and earth once more! The giant lightning dragon that had previously pierced through the heavens and earth and destroyed everything in front of it roared back to life, and this time it was four rising dragon punches, four whole giant lightning dragons!

Within the four pillars of light that pierced the heavens and the earth, the scales on the massive body of the myriad snakes, which had super defensive capabilities, were instantly evaporated without a trace. Then, accompanied by the screams of the myriad snakes, countless pieces of flesh and blood flew through the air, revealing the stark white bones beneath!

*Bang!* After a breath, Manda finally reacted, struggling to dispel the summoning, and dragged his heavily injured body back to the Earth Dragon Cave. He didn't dare utter a single harsh word, fearing that any delay would mean certain death. Without the help of his summoned beast, Orochimaru couldn't hold on for long either. Just seconds later, he was swept into the electric dragon and sent flying with a scream!

Orochimaru, the savior, and his summoning beast Manda were defeated in a single move!

"So this is the savior of this world? He looks incredibly weak!" Pikachu*Thunder Roar said in the language of the strong, his fighting spirit intensifying. "Little Hemorrhoid, the strong grow stronger with each encounter, so don't disappoint me!!"

The answer came from the serpentine sword in Tian Qing's hand, gleaming with dazzling light and poised to strike: "Immortal Technique*Boiling Bone Cannon!!" In battle, unless absolutely necessary, Tian Qing would not engage in verbal sparring with her enemies; she preferred to express her determination directly through actions.

A highly focused beam of light arrived in an instant, piercing straight towards us!

"A mere trick! Is this the move you created by imitating that LV5?" Pikachu*Thunderroar burst forth with countless sparks, driving its indestructible fists to swing even faster: "Magnetic Field Rotation 990,000 horsepower! Thunder Tiger Explosion Punch!" Instantly, Pikachu*Thunderroar unleashed its fists, delivering a powerful punch that sent the Sky Cannon shot flying!

boom!!!

On the distant sea, the Boil Bone Cannon, which had been sent flying by Pikachu's Thunder Roar, struck a small island, causing a huge explosion that followed, followed by landslides and earthquakes!

..............................

"Huh? What's going on? An earthquake?" Ye Cang sat up abruptly in the cave, scrambling out amidst the falling dust. "Are you kidding me?! I just finished a mission with Akatsuki and was looking for a deserted island to relax on while I was free. How come there's an earthquake all of a sudden?"

Then Yekura looked up, staring blankly at the huge hole blasted into the island, the collapsing hills, the sky and earth occasionally illuminated by lightning, and the deafening roar in the distance: "Huh? What's going on? Is it the end of the world?"

Beside him, Scorpion, also covered in dust, stared intently at the distant island where the clear sky and Pikachu* Thunder were battling. Although the two islands were too far apart for him to see anything, the massive chakra fluctuations still made Scorpion realize that the terrifying, earth-shaking explosion was merely the aftershock of that battle.

....................

"Heh! You little idiot, your power is still far from enough! Just give up and you'll lose!!" Pikachu*Thunder laughed wildly, throwing out four punches at once, striking a pose similar to Iori Yagami. Arcs of electricity flew wildly across the island, Absolute Territory + Dark Power 100%!! Forbidden 890 Style*Thunder Eight Maidens!!

"Obelisk the Tormentor* Gear Second Mode, Divine Shot!" After discovering that the Serpent Sword's barrage had no effect, Tianqing immediately went all out, summoning Obelisk the Tormentor and unleashing a straight punch infused with all of Tianqing's power in its enhanced Gear Second Mode. With this extreme power boost, the fist seemed like a divine shot capable of piercing through anything, striking Pikachu*Thunder's chest with absolute speed and speed!

Chapter Thirty-Four: The Three-Eyed Alien Appears in Naruto!

"That was a really good punch... Little Hemorrhoid... This feeling of boiling in my chest... only you can give me this..." Pikachu* Thunder Roar swayed, looked down at the huge hole that pierced through his body in his chest, and collapsed helplessly to the ground, his body gradually disintegrating into fragments that drifted everywhere.

Huff... Huff... Tian Qing gasped for breath, feeling his chakra almost completely depleted, and realized once again how insufficient his power was: "The amount of chakra in my body is still not enough. The amount of chakra required to fully activate the Giant God Soldier to launch an attack like this is too much. In addition to the chakra consumed by the previous bombardment, I don't even have the strength to summon any other summoning puppets!"

In this battle, because they were facing a master whose strength was absolutely no less than their own, neither side had any room for probing attacks. Every move they made was their ultimate killing move, and it was a battle to see who would give in first in this fierce exchange of blows. That's why the life and death were decided in such a short time.

Tianqing slowly walked over, watching Pikachu*Thunderroar gradually regain its original adorable appearance. Only in this final moment did a sliver of clarity return to its eyes: "So it's you...Tianqing...I didn't expect I'd still need to trouble you in the end..."

"As fellow seekers of 'it,' this is what I should do," Tianqing replied. In her previous life, Tianqing, Xiaozhi, and Pikachu were all victims who had seen 'it.' However, Tianqing suffered a mental breakdown after being glanced at by 'it' unintentionally, and subsequently had her personality reconstructed into that of the Listener; while Xiaozhi and Pikachu, after seeing a book that recorded 'it,' had their life forms twisted and transformed into Xiaozhi, a burly man with seven scars on his chest, and Pikachu*Thunder Roar.

Unexpectedly, after so many years, Pikachu*Megaroar has been completely bewitched by 'it's' power, becoming yet another loyal follower of 'it'. As for Ash's fate, considering Pikachu*Megaroar's previous behavior, Ame had some guesses, so she decided not to reopen old wounds for her former friend.

"Since you've become like this, have you seen it?" Taking advantage of Pikachu's last breath, Tianqing hurriedly asked. Countless people have been influenced by it throughout history, and countless believers have offered sacrifices to it in an attempt to gain power. However, no one has ever seen its true appearance, nor does anyone know whether it is good or evil, or whether it has no consciousness at all. Furthermore, no one can communicate with it. Those who claim to have heard its "divine pronouncements" are, without exception, experiencing only auditory hallucinations distorted by its power.

Pikachu* Thunder Roar's eyes were filled with confusion as it searched its fragmented memories, muttering, "...I...saw...the myriad things of the universe..." Then Pikachu* Thunder Roar vanished completely, leaving nothing behind.

Tian Qing sighed and went to check on Orochimaru. Thanks to the savior's aura, Orochimaru, who had been sent flying by a single punch, was only severely injured and unconscious; he hadn't died instantly. However, with the death of Pikachu*Thunder Roar, who had invaded this world, the apocalyptic crisis had been averted. Therefore, the world's consciousness didn't hesitate to withdraw the savior's aura, without considering whether Orochimaru's injuries would worsen and he would die after the aura was withdrawn.

"If I weren't still here, Orochimaru, the savior of the past, would probably have died here from his injuries. What a heartless and ruthless God! Once the matter is resolved, he immediately turns his back on us! He begged for my seed like a dog, and now that he's done with it, he thinks I'm ugly. This world consciousness is so unfair, not even giving me a reward for completing the mission!" Tian Qing cursed inwardly, taking the opportunity to absorb some scattered power of destiny with the Demon Egg to further strengthen her divine body. If God won't give her any benefits, she'll take them herself! Anyway, this heartless and ruthless world consciousness is extremely pragmatic. If any intruders appear again, they'll still shamelessly come for help, so collecting some protection money in advance isn't a problem, right?

After giving Orochimaru a preliminary treatment, Tensei used some of the chakra he had recovered to summon the Freedom Gundam and took Orochimaru away from the island.

.........................

After a long time, Yekura and Sasori stealthily approached the deserted island. Only after observing and confirming that there was no one left on it did they dare to set foot on the deserted island, which had been shattered into pieces by the aftershocks of the battle.

"What incredible destructive power! Who were those people fighting here before?!" Scorpion exclaimed unconsciously, watching the small island in front of him crumble and likely sink to the bottom of the sea soon. "If the aftershocks of a battle can cause this much damage, just how powerful must the actual battle be?!"

Then Scorpion glared at Yecang, who had been silent the whole time: "Woman, weren't you the one who kept asking to come and take a look? Why are you so quiet now? Aren't you going to say anything?"

Ye Cang didn't reply. Instead, she reached up and brushed aside her bangs, revealing the scar on her forehead. It was the third eye that had appeared during the sacrificial ceremony, but Ye Cang hadn't been able to open it since. However, while gazing at the battlefield just now, Ye Cang noticed that the scar on her forehead was throbbing slightly, which was why she insisted on coming here to check on it and see if anything had changed.

"That's right, it's this power!" Ye Cang faintly sensed that power, almost identical to the one from the previous sacrificial ritual, was constantly dissipating. It was the last remnant of the chaotic aura emanating from Pikachu*Thunderroar.

"Finally, there's a reaction!" A sharp, piercing pain shot through Ye Cang's body, causing her to convulse. Blood streamed down her forehead, as if a sharp knife were relentlessly slicing it open. Finally, she managed to support herself, her face contorted with barely suppressed elation!

"The eye on your forehead! What kind of strange chakra fluctuation is this!" Sasori looked at Yekura in astonishment, his expression one of disbelief.

"It's a bit strange to have a different perspective all of a time!" Ye Cang chuckled, indicating that Scorpion could leave the island. "Looks like I'll have to cut my bangs a bit when I get back!"

P.S. Someone asked what happened to Nagato, the one who studied Marxism-Leninism. Don't worry, he will come back, and the red flag will appear in Konoha. After all, in my previous life as a civil servant, I took many Marxist philosophy exams. However, this period is an important conference phase, so I can't write about it.

Is the interlude between the Senju and Uchiha, or between life and death?

Obito Uchiha wandered aimlessly. Ever since he woke up again in Yugakure, he had been walking forward like this, detouring around places he couldn't pass, never stopping.

From the moment he opened his eyes, Obito Uchiha felt as if someone was constantly chasing him, forcing him to keep walking. Although he had repeatedly confirmed that there were no pursuers behind him, an image kept flashing through his mind: "Obito, don't worry about me, run!!" A man covered in blood was shouting at him.

Who was that man, and why did he save me? Obito Uchiha's mind was filled with confusion. During his days of constant walking, many strange images and figures kept flashing through Obito's mind: the blond teacher, the masked boy whose hands could generate electricity, the girl whose name he couldn't remember but who was exceptionally beautiful, and those people with blood-red eyes who were attacking him.

Who exactly are they? Obito was very puzzled. After waking up this time, he felt that he had forgotten many things, such as how to get across the ocean in front of him. What tools could he use? Obito couldn't remember, so when he saw the ocean in front of him, he would choose to walk in the other direction. It wasn't until he circled around the island of the Land of Hot Water several times that he realized that he seemed to be trapped in the same place by the ocean.
