Start with a Zanpakuto and build the strongest Mist Village.

He suddenly remembered why the mark on this person's forehead looked so familiar.

Isn't this exactly the kind of mark that Hidan, a future member of the Akatsuki, often displays?

"What exactly are these so-called evil gods and evil god cults?" Ye asked in a deep voice.

Hidan is from the Jashin cult and is a rogue ninja from Yugakure!

The three members of the Akatsuki organization did not perform very well in the original work, but the abilities they displayed were quite terrifying.

Hidan's abilities are not only mysterious, but can even be described as bizarre.

According to the Naruto official databook, Hidan's ability comes from the Jashin religion communicating with God through a certain ritual to obtain this ability; it is a 'gift from God' or a 'curse from God'.

An immortal ninja who worships terrifying evil gods and revels in pain!

The word "immortal" contains an immense amount of information.

In the Naruto world, it's not actually that difficult to become immortal. There are many methods that can achieve this, such as Sasori's Puppet Reincarnation, Kakuzu's Earth Grudge Fear, and Orochimaru's Corpse Reincarnation.

However, their immortality is fundamentally different from Hidan's immortality.

Whether it's Kakuzu or Orochimaru, their immortality is achieved by acquiring new life forms to sustain their own depletion, thus ensuring the continuation of their lives.

They use methods such as changing their physical body, obtaining a heart to maintain their vitality, and stimulating themselves with chakra.

But Hidan is different.

That guy is truly immortal. He doesn't need any extra methods. Even if his heart and head are pierced, or he is dismembered, he will not die!

This power completely shattered the rules of the ninja world, much like the stone puppets bestowed by the demons.

The only difference is that one acts on inorganic matter, while the other acts on the human body.

The two look very similar, yet they are worlds apart!

"interesting……"

A strong sense of curiosity arose in Ye's heart; this power could be of great help to his research on the Grim Reaper.

"The great evil god is an evil god. He is the supreme being, the truth of everything in this world, the master of all things, and..."

"...Alright, alright, alright, I didn't ask you to do any propaganda. Tell me in detail about the Evil God Cult, and how you obtained this immortality."

"..."

The fanatical believer, whose chanting was interrupted by the night, paused for a moment before beginning his straightforward narration.

"Several years ago, the great god Gakin descended upon Yugakure in a dream, giving me guidance in the dream and ultimately leading me to join the Gakin Cult."

"Jiajin is a great god who possesses immortality and controls the underworld. By worshipping Jiajin, one can obtain an immortal body, live forever, and even surpass the power of 'Shadow'."

"Through the sacrificial ritual, I completed the ritual evolution. Although the success was not as powerful as the 'first case,' I still gained the power of immortality..."

The fanatic continued to recount everything he knew, including the current situation of the evil god cult, its personnel structure, and the various rituals used by the evil god's priests to pray for power, making Ye's brows furrow more and more as he listened.

According to this guy's description, the so-called evil god cult uses the dual sacrifice of the flesh and soul of living people, plus the 'belief' of the ritual personnel, to communicate with the 'evil god Jiajin'.

Then, depending on the recipient's potential and level of faith in the evil god, they will receive different levels of blessings from the evil god and wield different levels of power.

Among these powers are immortality, the ability to regenerate severed limbs, and eternal youth.

But in Ye's view, this method was far more outrageous and terrifying than his Grim Reaper experiments.

Because their rituals lack rhythm and progress, they simply use death and faith to search for so-called evil gods in order to obtain divine blessings.

Almost every ceremony required the deaths of hundreds or thousands of people.

But because there are indeed immortal beings who can be born from rituals.

This has led to more and more people starting to believe in the Gakjin cult and worship evil gods.

Now, most of the Hidden Hot Springs Village has begun to worship the evil god, and even the current Hot Springs Kage has joined the evil god cult in an attempt to obtain immortality...

"It seems I need to do some serious research on this cult of evil gods..."

Night murmured softly.

……

The Land of Hot Springs is renowned throughout the ninja world, and its unique hot springs are famous throughout the entire ninja world. Anyone who has experienced them has nothing but praise for them.

In addition, the ninja village of Yugakure in the country has always adhered to pacifism, and the entire village has even been dubbed by the outside world as the 'village that has forgotten war'. Although it is not a neutral country, its status in the ninja world is quite special.

"This mountain should be Mount Chitang, and Chitang City, the largest city in the Land of Hot Water, is located within the mountain."

Looking at the mountains before him, Ye took out a black crystal and handed it to Sarah, saying calmly, "Take your people and settle down there to rest. I will come to find you after I have finished dealing with some matters."

"If you encounter enemies or trouble, just crush this crystal."

"Yes."

Sarah nodded obediently.

Now she has a clear understanding of the situation and knows that the person who has seized the dragon vein is the one she and all the remaining people of Loulan can rely on for the future.

If you want a good life in the future, you must rely on this person and listen to his words.

Sarah took the crystal and led the Loulan survivors' caravan into Chitang City.

Night followed closely behind.

As the largest and most prosperous city in the Land of Hot Water, Akatsuki Castle is divided into two parts.

Its outer city is reserved for tourists, for those who want to experience the various hot spring cultures of Akatsuki.

The inner city is where the village of Yugakure is located today.

The outer city of Akatsuki Castle has a huge flow of people. Even during the Third Shinobi World War, the number of tourists visiting Akatsuki Castle was still considerable, all wanting to enjoy the world-famous 'Akashu Spring'.

Its massive number of tourists not only brought huge financial revenue to the Land of Hot Springs, but also brought a large number of mission requests to the Hidden Village of Hot Springs.

For example, simple and easy tasks such as finding cats, dogs, and children for tourists, providing bodyguards, and tour guides have made Tangyin Village a fortune.

Of course, such a large flow of people also brought countless sacrificial offerings to the evil cult hidden in Tangyin Village.

Live!

After Sara and the remaining people of Loulan were all settled, Ye also entered Chitang City to search for intelligence.

The most common sight in Akayu City is, of course, hot spring resorts.

The streets are lined with hot spring shops, and some of them even have young girls dressed in light clothing, just wrapped in bathrobes, constantly greeting customers at the entrance.

Besides hot spring shops, the outer city is mostly filled with taverns and casinos.

What's the most profitable thing in the world?

It's nothing more than pornography, gambling, and drugs.

As the most important economic pillar city of the entire Land of Hot Springs and the Hidden Village of Hot Springs, Akatsuki Castle naturally possesses all three.

"Guests~ Come and play!"

"Hey, hey, here I come!"

Under the warm hospitality of the young girl, Ye accepted the test.

Some things can only be truly appreciated by experiencing them firsthand.

The red hot spring was like a pool of churning blood, accompanied by a huge roar, like a torrent from the underworld, relieving all the fatigue in my body.

The reason why Yugakure Village is famous for its hot springs is truly remarkable!

"Welcome to visit us again!"

"sure."

Ye walked out of the hot spring shop with a smile, but her expression immediately turned serious.

He entered this hot spring resort not for enjoyment, as the saying goes, the greatest hermit lives in the court, the middle hermit lives in the city, and the lesser hermit lives in the wilderness.

This evil cult has now completely integrated with Yugakure Village, making it extremely difficult to explore anything. Only by delving deep into it and having a proper conversation with them can one grasp even the smallest details.

A shower led Ye to discover something fishy!

Before long, Ye appeared outside a casino.

'Golden Casino'

Four large, gilded characters hang at the entrance of the shop. Through the door, the magnificent decorations, dazzling neon lights, and waiters in various alluring uniforms are clearly visible.

Night passed through the tall glass doors and stepped into the lobby of the luxurious casino.

The dim, warm light illuminated the spacious hall, reflecting off the sparkling crystal chandeliers and opulent decorations.

The sheer curtains swayed in the breeze, creating a mysterious and elegant atmosphere.

Each table was surrounded by gamblers, who occasionally let out excited shouts or angry, regretful cries.

Ye's gaze swept around and he quickly noticed something unusual.

"Damn it, I lost again. Why am I having such bad luck today!"

As the dealer announced 1, 3, 3 small, the gambler watched with a look of utter dejection as his bets slipped away.

He got up to leave, but was stopped by several uniformed personnel.

"What are you going to do?!"

"Sir, you owe our Jiajin Casino a total of 1.68 million taels for three days now. According to our original rule that you would repay the next day, you are already two days overdue. Including principal and interest, you owe a total of 2.52 million taels."

The uniformed man stared expressionlessly at the gambler and said in a deep voice, "Please settle your debt."

"How...how can there be so many!"

The gambler was shocked, but he knew in his heart that there would be so much.

The game of borrowing money to gamble is all about winning at gambling. As long as you win back your losses in one go, no matter how high the interest rate is, it doesn't matter.

The problem is, he didn't win the bet.

Now, he has no money left, not even enough for dinner, let alone 2.52 million.

"Give me two more days, please give me two more days, I promise I'll pay you back in two days..."

Before he could finish speaking, a shadow fell over him. A ninja from the Hidden Waters Sect stared intently at him, his cold voice like a biting wind reaching the gambler's ears, "You won't be leaving here until you pay back your money today."

The ninja's appearance brought a look of despair to the gambler's face. He tried to escape, but the ninja grabbed him and knocked him unconscious.

Tang Ren casually tossed the gambler in his hand to the uniformed man and said indifferently, "Don't kill him. A fresh sacrifice is necessary for a better sacrificial ceremony and to satisfy the God of Gold!"

"Rest assured, sir, we will definitely satisfy the evil god!"

"Ah."

Tang Ren nodded, then suddenly said, "Keep a low profile these next couple of days. Don't use underhanded tactics for now. Just deal with those who owe money and don't pay it back."

"Ah, this..."

The uniformed man looked puzzled.

There are indeed many gamblers in casinos who owe money, but not everyone is like this guy.

If they don't resort to underhanded tactics, the number of offerings they can make to the evil god will be greatly reduced!

"There's nothing we can do about it. The 'fat sheep' has already arrived in our Chitang City. Although that guy is a spendthrift, he has an extremely powerful background, so you'd better watch your step!"

"A fat sheep, huh?"

The uniformed guy had obviously heard about the fat sheep's exploits, and could only nod.

"A fat sheep?"

Hidden in the shadows, Ye raised an eyebrow and suddenly looked up at the casino entrance.

"It can't be such a coincidence..."

Her long golden hair was tied into a loose ponytail, and her brown outfit couldn't hide her stunning figure; the cleavage in her chest was enough to bury everything!

The woman tossed her long gown aside and strode into the casino with a bold expression, heading straight to a gambling table.

"Silence, give me the money! Today I'm destined to slaughter everyone!"

"Yes, Tsunade-sama!"
