. . . . . .
The card depicts a deer-bodied girl with a cold gaze.
The girl had delicate features, long, beautiful black hair, and silvery-white eyelashes and eyebrows. She wore a deep blue armor on her upper body, and had two huge, three-pronged, tree-like antlers on her head, with faint arcs of electricity swirling around them.
Shinji carefully kept it close to his body.
Although I don't know why, the field shows that it cannot be expanded.
But judging from the paper alone, this [Special Grade Cursed Spirit - Kongni] is definitely not weak; it must be much stronger than the weakest Special Grade Cursed Spirit he destroyed before.
Just imagine how terrifying a cursed spirit born from humanity's fear of lightning could be!
Fortunately, he received a trial card instead of having to face a cursed spirit of this level in person.
This [Spirit Curse Trial Card] will undoubtedly become one of his trump cards at this stage, and even for a long time to come.
Thinking of this, Shinji felt both relieved and satisfied, but soon a sense of anxiety also crept in.
It is believed that before long, a large number of cursed spirits will be born in various parts of the ninja world, causing huge chaos.
He wasn't worried that these cursed spirits could overturn the entire ninja world in the early stages. After all, the major ninja villages were not to be underestimated, and even ordinary special-grade cursed spirits wouldn't fare well against those powerful ninjas.
His main concern was that, over time, even more terrifying cursed spirits would gradually emerge.
After all, as long as humans possess negative emotions such as fear and hatred, cursed spirits will appear.
So here's the question: what are people in this world most afraid of?
It's probably... a ninja!
Or perhaps it's chakra itself!
The thought of a cursed spirit born from such fear is chilling.
In addition, humans also fear the tailed beasts and are terrified of war...
And what kind of monster will be born from that moon once the truth is known to many people?
Shinji doesn't want to be a savior, but as long as he lives in this world, he can never stay out of it and will always have to take a stand.
Because of his identity, and because he can become stronger by eliminating cursed spirits, he will inevitably choose to stand on the side of humanity.
All that's left is to continue working towards that goal.
Looking at it this way, he's the handsome guy with the biggest vision.
. . . . . . .
Not long after.
The Land of Rain, the Tower.
When Konan and Kakuzu returned, Kakuzu left with a stern face.
Having lost three hearts has left him feeling extremely insecure, so he's eager to find new hearts to restore him to his best condition.
Xiao Nan naturally had no interest in constantly coaxing him; he wasn't her grandfather, so what if he was old?
If she can bring Kakuzu back alive, her mission will be considered successfully completed.
As for the rest, she needs to inform Nagato before making further plans.
Entering Nagato's room alone, the first thing that catches the eye is the gaunt, emaciated man sitting in a specially made 'wheelchair'... behind him is Nagato.
The black batons covering his back seemed to be telling a series of tragic stories.
"I am back."
Nagato nodded slightly, then spoke in a slightly hoarse voice, "You're back so quickly? Have you investigated everything? Where's Kakuzu?"
"The rumors about 'man-eating monsters' seem to be true, but their strength is not as terrifying as the rumors suggest. On the contrary, the ones we encountered were all easily defeated. In addition, it can be confirmed that this rumor has nothing to do with tailed beasts."
At this point, Xiao Nan took a breath, her expression turning serious. "What I'm about to tell you is the real takeaway from this operation..."
A few minutes later, Xiao Nan finished explaining the unexpected changes that had occurred during the operation.
Nagato seemed thoughtful, even somewhat surprised, "So... you were worried that Kakuzu might be outmatched if he insisted on staying, which is why you rushed back ahead of time."
Seeing Xiao Nan nod, he couldn't help but ask another question.
"Is that guy who wields the Executioner's Blade really that powerful? I remember the current owner of the Executioner's Blade is a rogue ninja from Kirigakure called 'Demon'..."
"Not a ghost."
Xiao Nan said with certainty, "We had collected information about the Ghost Man before and considered including him in the list of candidates for the organization's membership selection, but in the end we gave up. The Ghost Man's strength and character do not meet our current recruitment standards."
"In other words, the person you and Kakuzu encountered is very likely the one who killed the demon and took the guillotine from him."
"There is only one possibility."
"He can destroy three of Kakuzu's hearts and then walk away unscathed in front of the two of you... Do you think this person is worth recruiting?"
"It's not certain yet, but the abilities they've displayed are rather peculiar and strange. We can try to observe them first."
"Then I'll leave this matter to you. Gather all the intelligence about the other side. When the time is right, you can bring the others to participate in the assessment."
"Hmm. But what about Kakuzu's side..."
"There's no need to worry about these things. If Kakuzu has any objections later, he can come to me. Akatsuki isn't a place where he can act up as he pleases."
Although Kakuzu was personally invited to join the Akatsuki organization by Pain, who controlled Nagato, and even handed over the Akatsuki's financial power to Kakuzu.
However, there was one thing that Nagato found particularly objectionable: since joining the party, all the ninjas who had partnered with Kakuzu on missions had been killed by Kakuzu.
Xiao's development was already slow, and it was difficult to find and recruit new members.
But things turned out differently. He and Konan attacked one, and not long after, Kakuzu killed the other.
Anyone would find it unbearable to go back and forth like that.
Nagato had suspected several times that Kakuzu was taking advantage of his age, so he decided to use this opportunity to give Kakuzu a warning and help him recall the fear that had gradually faded from his memory.
Konan did not object to Nagato's decision. Anyway, there was still plenty of time, and the outcome was uncertain, so she decided to try investigating first.
So after reporting her work, she immediately closed her eyes and began to recall the details.
Sheets of white paper fell from his body and quickly stuck together, eventually forming a lifelike paper figure.
Looking at his appearance, who else could it be but Shinji Akagi!
After using her memory to '3D print' Shinji, Konan circled the paper figure three times.
Finally, she remembered some features that could be used.
One of them was the peculiar necklace worn around the neck.
She felt like she'd seen that pattern somewhere before...
[Chapter Sixty: Special Training]
A few days later, Shinji and Hidan, who had almost fully recovered, returned to the Jashin Cult.
After the horrific experience of being dismembered and framed on the wall, Hidan's arrogance finally subsided somewhat.
Because he also discovered the limitations of immortality.
He wants to become stronger!
Shinji was naturally pleased with Hidan's transformation.
Just don't expect to hear a single nice word from him.
At most, I would train Hidan like crazy every day and then encourage him with words, hoping he would understand my good intentions.
Like this...
"Bang, bang, bang..."
"what!"
"Stop yelling, or people outside will think I'm slaughtering a pig here."
"Then why did you have to slap it in the face? Are you jealous that I'm more handsome than you!"
"Hehe, before I met you, I never judged people by their appearance. But after meeting you... I've become blind."
Shinji sneered, then beckoned to Hidan, who was lying on the ground with his face swollen from being beaten.
"Get up right now, stop lying there pretending to be dead!"
"Didn't you say that once you get stronger, the first thing you'd do is kill me?"
"Then you'd better show some spirit and put in some effort!"
"What, have you developed the Sleeping Arhat Fist and are you trying to kill me in your dreams?"
Hidan, who had been blown up, gritted his teeth and got up from the ground again. Then, with red eyes, he charged towards Shinji, yelling "Yaaaaah!"
Two seconds later, a figure flew backward and slammed into the wall with a thud.
"Although both gold and glass shards can reflect light, I never expected that you, a piece of glass shard, would insist on hitting gold."
"I'm begging you, please use your brain, okay?"
"You don't have an advantage in strength or speed, so what makes you think you can just charge in like this?"
"Do you even have a brain? Are you just trying to make yourself look more sophisticated?"
Blanch!
Hidan slammed his fist into the ground with tremendous force, his eyes practically spitting fire.
