From Hokage to Visionary

Finally, its skin grew layers of fine scales, like grayish-white rock, its pupils were vertical and pale gold, and an unprecedented, explosive force spread within its body, making Bai Jue eager to test how powerful the power of Sequence Four was!

He quietly disappeared in Konoha, came to a deserted place, and showed off his 'mythical creature form' to the fullest!

The strong body stretched out, the huge gray-white dragon body, and when it flapped its wings, it raised a rolling gale. The speed once broke the sound barrier and easily pierced through the mountain.

Too strong!

Bai Zetsu laughed wantonly.

It finally realized the power that Adam possessed at that time.

"Adam, you didn't expect that I was out of your control, did you?"

Bai Jue's pale golden pupils were looking into the distance. It had a dragon-shaped body but a human head. It looked a little weird no matter how you looked at it. A hideous and terrifying smile appeared on its face: "Soon, I will pull you off that chair!"

It was laughing madly, unleashing the power of this mythical creature.

Under its powerful force, mountains were flattened one after another.

However, Bai Zetsu had never expected that there were two people right next to it, observing its every move.

"Mong Yue, why do you let it go?"

Eri tilted her head and looked at the person next to her curiously, frowning slightly and saying, "I don't like it. It's disgusting."

"Because, if you want to destroy a person, you must first make him crazy."

Uchiha Sogetsu smiled as he stroked Eri's hair. His light golden eyes were slightly rippled.

Chapter 449: Gift or Destruction

The members of the Dusk Hermit Society nervously fled Konoha and reunited at the agreed location.

The expressions on everyone's faces were different. Some were very angry, some were very calm, and some had their heads down, not knowing what they were thinking about.

The plan was formulated with great difficulty and so much manpower and material resources were invested, but it ended in failure in the end.

"where are they?"

Uchiha Mikoto frowned and looked at the two empty seats.

"Not back yet."

Orochimaru frowned, his expression serious.

Then, Uchiha Mikoto suppressed her anger, pointed the finger at Ohnoki, and said with cold eyes: "If you hadn't stopped it, that guy would be dead now. What do you mean?"

"Are you doubting me?" Ohnoki frowned, facing everyone's slightly questioning eyes, his expression was still very calm, and he said slowly: "I should have explained it. I think I may get a way to awaken Lord Adam from Bai Zetsu."

"Humph, who knows what you are thinking in your heart."

Uchiha Mikoto sneered, her blood-red magatama spinning slightly, and her deep voice was mixed with a hint of murderous intent: "You should be very happy to hear what White Zetsu said, right?"

call!

The brass oil lamp with a burning candle suddenly swayed.

Against the backdrop of Ohnoki's half-bright and half-dark face, which had a rather strange atmosphere, he lowered his eyelids slightly and said without any emotion: "Mikoto, you need to calm down and stop biting people like a mad dog."

As soon as these words came out, Uchiha Mikoto's eyes flashed with anger, and she said sarcastically: "I am a mad dog, then what are you? An old dog who longs to replace the power of Lord Adam? Don't think you are hiding it well. The ambition of the two Tianping Ohnoki. You has been exposed long ago!"

"Uchiha Mikoto, you're going too far."

No matter how good-tempered Ohnoki was, he couldn't help it at the moment, and spirituality surged deep in his pupils.

"Am I wrong, old dog?"

Uchiha Mikoto was not afraid at all. She responded tit for tat and said coldly: "Don't think I don't know. Since Lord Adam fell asleep, you have been expanding the combat power of the Hidden Rock Village, from laws to culture, and you are also secretly looking for Lord Adam. What exactly are you planning to do?"

"I've explained this many times, Uchiha Mikoto."

Ohnoki suppressed his anger and said in a deep voice: "From expanding the combat power of the Hidden Rock Village to strengthening the laws and culture, all are to curb the Aurora Society and the White Zetsu. As for finding Lord Adam, it is to find a way to wake Him up."

"Oh, who knows?"

It has to be said that as a 'Hunter', Uchiha Mikoto's provocative skills are absolutely top-notch.

In just a few words, Ohnoki lost his temper. His face turned purple, he was panting, and his eyes were filled with terrifying bloodshot.

Seeing that the atmosphere was tense and about to start a fight, Orochimaru slapped the table.

"enough!"

Orochimaru spoke sternly, stopping the two people who were arguing.

Looking around at everyone, he exhaled a breath of foul air and said in a hoarse voice: "The responsibility for this matter lies with me. It was me who failed to kill White Zetsu in time."

His words were equivalent to taking the initiative to take the responsibility for the failure of the entire plan.

"Humph."

Uchiha Mikoto said no more.

Ohnoki suppressed his anger, sat down again, and said to himself: "No, the biggest responsibility for this matter lies with me. It was because I believed in White Zetsu's words that I missed the opportunity."

"There is one more thing I must say."

Orochimaru rubbed his swollen and painful brow. The battle caused severe wear and tear on his spirituality. He could only endure the pain of mental tearing and said in a deep voice: "White Zetsu may have used 'psychological suggestion' when speaking. The purpose is to divide us, so everyone, don't be fooled."

Before leaving, Bai Zetsu's words were like a bombshell, causing a storm in everyone's hearts.

The purpose is simple, which is to plant a time bomb inside the Dusk Hermit Society.

After saying this, he narrowed his snake-like pupils slightly and scanned everyone's faces as if examining them.

"I never believed what White Zetsu said."

Uchiha Mikoto was calm and composed, without any hesitation at all.

"I agree with her."

It's hard to tell what Xiaonan is thinking.

"Same."

Oonoki's answer was brief.

But it made Orochimaru's gaze linger on him for half a second longer.

"The plan has failed. I think Bai Zetsu will be promoted soon."

Orochimaru retracted his gaze, looked at them solemnly, and said in a deep voice: "In the next period of time, you must be very careful. Now we can only wait for Master Adam to wake up."

The flickering candle flames went out one by one.

Correspondingly, all the members of the Dusk Hermit Society left, leaving Orochimaru alone.

After a while, another candle was lit.

Noticing the lit candlelight, Orochimaru opened his eyes and asked, "Are you back?"

"Ah."

The candlelight illuminated White Fang's face.

However, White Fang looked a little disheveled at this moment. From the hideous wounds all over his body, it could be seen that he had been through a great battle.

"what is going on?"

Orochimaru looked at White Fang opposite him, with a hint of complaint in his words: "Just a little bit, just a little bit, and we can get rid of that damn traitor."

Hearing this, White Fang sighed bitterly and said, "It was the Six Paths Sage. In the original plan, he was the main force to hold back Uchiha Obito, and I was the second line of defense. However, I don't know what happened in the middle of the journey, and the Six Paths Sage left directly, which greatly shortened the time."

"Leaving suddenly?"

Orochimaru was stunned for a moment, his brows furrowed into a "川" shape, and he fell into deep thought: "Could it be that the Six Paths Sage had to leave because of this? Is it related to the secret of the Pure Land?"

The Pure Land, the place where the soul goes after death, holds great secrets.

Although the Six Paths Sage kept silent about this matter, it could be clearly noticed from various signs in daily life.

The Six Paths Sage concealed something very important from them, and it was obviously of great importance.

"It must be something serious, otherwise his expression wouldn't be so serious when he left."

White Fang leaned back in his chair as if relaxed and added.

Just then, the brass lamp at the end lit up, and a figure suddenly appeared.

"Six Paths Immortal?"

Orochimaru and White Fang were a little surprised.

"it's me."

The Six Paths Sage seemed very tired, and said in a deep voice: "I have some very bad news to tell you."

Orochimaru and White Fang looked at each other, and seemed to see shock in each other's eyes.

It was obviously not a "small matter" that could make the "Six Paths Sage" show such a cautious expression. Combined with the previous speculation, an answer seemed to emerge in his mind.

"Is it about the secret of the Pure Land?"

Orochimaru asked cautiously.

"you."

The Sage of Six Paths seemed to realize something when he was halfway through his speech, and then he said bitterly, "Yes, it is related to the secret of the Pure Land."

really!

Orochimaru's guess was confirmed, but he didn't look happy at all: "What exactly is it?"

"'Adam' once went to the Pure Land and told me to keep the secret safe."

The Six Paths Sage looked bitter and said, "But now, for some unknown reason, the 'secret' that had been suppressed in the Pure Land has completely broken through the seal left by 'Adam' at that time, and directly rushed into the material world, and is entrenched in the underground of this planet."

"What's wrong with this?"

White Fang asked with some confusion.

“Yes, and it’s a big problem.”

The Six Paths Sage sighed, "I once asked Adam what that thing was, and he answered that it was the source of everything. If that thing surges into the material world, it means that the power of the 'Origin' will affect the entire ninja world. I don't know what this means, maybe it's a blessing, or maybe it's destruction."

Chapter 450 Ambition, the trend is about to rise!

White Zetsu is like a child who suddenly gains power and then acts recklessly.

Entering Sequence Four meant that from now on, it was no longer a man-made product, but a saint who had taken a half-step into the realm of God!

But it will take some time to fully digest the potion.

"It won't take long. Once I have completely digested the potion, it will be time for me to come find you."

White Zetsu clenched his fists, feeling the explosive power. The air rushed through his fingers, making a sharp roar. He became more and more confident.

This is the Saint!

After all the hardships, it finally succeeded!

Then, White Zetsu used psychology to become invisible and quietly disappeared into the mountains. Next, it had to find a place to digest the remaining magic potion after its promotion.

Looking at the disappearing White Zetsu, Uchiha Sogetsu, who had enjoyed a good show, stroked Eri's hair and chuckled, "Okay, we're done, we should go back."

"Are we going back to Konoha?"

Eri asked.

"Does Eri want to go?"

Uchiha Sogetsu asked back.

Eri thought about it carefully, then nodded: "I want to go see how Sasuke is doing."

Although they have been together for a short time, in Eri's heart, she already regards Sasuke as a friend.

In the battle to chase Gaara, although Sasuke relied on his half-baked 'Shunhong' and the multiple changes of Chidori to crush Gaara in his normal state, he eventually forced out the tailed beast.

As a result, he was naturally pinned to the ground and given a severe beating.
