Public executions started with King Adonai

Naraku's voice rang out in this situation: "With the power of the Four Souls Jade, regaining youth is nothing but an extremely easy task."

Chapter 628 The Will of the Four Souls Jade, the Key to Saving the First Collapsed Land

It really is the Four Souls Jade!

Countless people in the real world had the same thought at this moment, because the Four Souls Jade had appeared a long time ago.

Aizen used a half-remaining Shikon Jewel, and finally with the help of the power of the Holy Grail, he completed the Shikon Jewel and transformed it into a Hogyoku.

There is no way of knowing where the remaining four soul jades are.

However, everything Aizen did made the Shikon Jade mysterious and full of unknown powerful power.

There is no doubt that the Hogyoku that Aizen spent so much money to create is by no means a simple thing. At least it is definitely more powerful than the Holy Grail created in the Holy Grail War in Fuyuki City.

Otherwise, with Aizen's personality, he could just pursue the Holy Grail directly. Why would he spend so much money on the Hogyoku?

As the foundation of the Collapse Jade, the core and root of everything, the power of the Four Soul Jade should not be underestimated.

Just a fragment was able to restore the youth of the old Uchiha Madara. One can imagine how powerful the power contained in it is.

Honestly speaking, countless people are longing for and wanting it now, just like when they first learned about the power of the Holy Grail.

……

On the screen, Uchiha Madara stared at the fragment of the Four Souls Jade, which was as thick as a baby's little finger, and asked in a deep voice, "Four Souls Jade? What is that?"

Naraku: "A very special jade that possesses extremely powerful strength and the power to grant wishes."

"Similarly, it should have been completely destroyed. However, someone awakened the essence of the Four Souls Jade from the wreckage, reforged it, and gave it new power."

"The Four Souls Jade now possesses unparalleled power and has the power to fulfill any wish."

After a pause, he continued, "Similarly, it is the only way to save this crumbling world."

Uchiha Madara: "...Tell me in detail."

Naraku: "Your Excellency should already know that the drastic changes in the Ninja World have caused it to collapse, and all of this is because for some reason, the Ninja World has been forcibly added with things that do not belong to this world."

"However, the strengthened Shikon Jewel entered this world under these circumstances, and due to the world's collapse, it broke into many fragments and scattered throughout the ninja world."

“At the same time, I have become integrated into this world and connected to the foundation of this world.”

"If you can find all the fragments of the Four Souls Jade, then you can use the power of the Four Souls Jade to save this crumbling world."

Uchiha Madara: "Save... the world?"

"How funny! The Moon Eye Project I implemented actually led the world towards destruction, and now I'm expected to save it?"

"Huh, this is such a ridiculous joke."

Although he said it was funny, there was actually no smile on his face, because for Uchiha Madara, this was undoubtedly the biggest irony in his life.

In pursuit of eternal peace and a way to save the world, he gave up everything and became an enemy of his best friend, but what he got in the end was a huge lie.

His desire to save the ninja world ultimately led to it falling into the hands of an alien woman, and he himself was the sacrifice for this purpose.

For Uchiha Madara, who was extremely self-righteous and arrogant, this was undoubtedly a huge blow.

In other words, I am old now. If I were younger, I would not be able to help but rush out and find a group of people to dance with.

Coupled with the somewhat desolate BGM, it looks extremely sad, causing people in the real world to sigh.

A generation of heroes finally became so lonely, the feeling of a hero in his twilight years was really overwhelming.

However, if what Naraku said is true, then the hope of saving this collapsed land seems to fall on this broken Four Souls Jade?

By the way, who was the person that Naraku mentioned who repaired the Shikon Jewel and injected new power into it?

Such an awesome existence must be no ordinary character.

Considering the background of Renli's burning, could it be that the person who did this was the mastermind behind Renli's burning?

Of course, it could also be Aizen. After all, he had already obtained half of the Shikon Jewel and transformed it into Hougyoku. It seemed acceptable for him to repair and strengthen the remaining half of the Shikon Jewel. The key was what benefits Aizen could get from this matter. That man would never do anything meaningless.

In addition, it could be someone else, such as the mysterious Archbishop of Destiny, or someone else who is still unknown.

But the probability is relatively low. After all, if the image on the light screen does not show any information at all, then it is purely a riddle.

However, the story presented by the light screen image at this point seems to have revealed the key conditions for saving the first collapsed land.

If this is a series of stories, the plot has actually been laid since the Fourth Holy Grail War, and at the first point of collapse today, the Four Souls Jade appears again and directly enters a critical state.

I have to say that this convergence of the world line gives people a sense of shock.

……

On the screen, Uchiha Madara laughed at himself and then stared at the Four Souls Jade. Then he turned his gaze to Naraku: "Since the Four Souls Jade has such power, why did you give it to me?"

"Instead, what is your purpose in telling me all this and even handing me a fragment of the Four Souls Jade?"

"Don't give me boring excuses. I just want to know the truth. I don't trust you. If you don't give me a reason that convinces me, I won't use what you give me."

Without beating around the bush, he directly expressed his attitude and made it clear that he did not trust Naraku.

This is Uchiha Madara's pride, and also his determination to reach the end of his life.

Uchiha Madara, who has been deceived and used by Black Zetsu, will never allow himself to be used as a pure tool a second time.

It’s not that transactions and mutual exploitation are unacceptable, but being deceived and used as a tool is absolutely unacceptable.

Naraku smiled and said, "This matter is not something that cannot be disclosed to Lord Uchiha Madara."

"Actually, if I had a choice, I really don't want to give the Four Souls Jade to you."

"But, there's no way. I can't go against the will of the Four Souls Jade."

Uchiha Madara narrowed his eyes: "Unable to defy the will of the Four Souls Jade? What does that mean?"

Naraku slowly turned the fragment of the Four Souls Jade between his fingers: "It's very simple. I was actually dead a long time ago in my original world."

"However, the power of the Four Souls Jade brought me back with destruction. In other words, it's not certain whether the me named Naraku is the original Naraku. Perhaps I am just a tool created by the Four Souls Jade with its supreme power."

"Whether I am the real Naraku or not, it doesn't matter, because my fate has been determined since the day I came into this world."

"My mission is to screen the Four Soul Jade—to be a tool to select those who can possess the Four Soul Jade and become its master."

"So, I traveled all over the ninja world, collecting the fragments of the Four Souls Jade, and then gave them to the people or other lives they chose, and then..."

"Waiting for the final winner to be born."

Uchiha Madara narrowed his eyes. "A man who was manipulated to create a chess game for the Four Souls Jade? That's quite interesting."

"Whether your words are true or not, they have really made me interested in the Four Souls Jade."

"If what you say is true, then, for me, missing this 'game' is undoubtedly unacceptable."

Naraku: "That's it, and the situation has been explained. I think it will take some time for you to make up your mind. So, this fragment of the Four Souls Jade will stay here!"

"As for me, it's time to find other contenders for the Four Souls Jade."

As he finished speaking, Naraku directly threw the fragment of the Shikon Jewel to Uchiha Madara. Seeing this, the latter silently raised his hand to catch the fragment of the Shikon Jewel, and stared at it in his hand.

The moment he touched the Shikon Jade, Uchiha Madara felt the supreme power coming from the Shikon Jade, which was beyond any power he had ever seen.

Moreover, a strong desire surged in his heart, as if asking Uchiha Madara to quickly integrate the Four Souls Jade into his body.

In response, Uchiha Madara just snorted coldly, then held the fragment of the Four Souls Jade in his hand.

He did not absorb it, but used his own will and strength to suppress the temptation of the Four Souls Jade fragments without hesitation.

Seeing this, Naraku smiled: "Are you indifferent to the temptation emanating from the fragments of the Four Souls Jewel? You are truly worthy of being the former Shura of the Ninja World, Uchiha Madara!"

"Then, it is up to you to decide whether or not to use the Four Souls Jade fragments, and how to use them!"

"We will meet again if we are destined to."

As he finished speaking, Nara retreated, his body blending into the shadows and eventually disappearing.

Uchiha Madara watched all this and finally just snorted coldly.

The memories end here and the scene returns to the 'present'.

It is obvious that Uchiha Madara finally used the fragments of the Four Souls Jade and integrated them into his body.

Now, Naraku comes to see Uchiha Madara again, and it seems that Uchiha Madara has trusted Naraku.

However, in reality, it is not the case. The current Uchiha Madara is calm when facing Naraku, simply because he has regained his youth and strength.

Moreover, he seemed to know a lot of things, so his attitude towards Naraku became more casual.

Uchiha Madara: "So, Naraku, what brings you to see me this time? As an apostle of the Four Souls Jade, you should also have the mission of finding the controller of the Four Souls Jade fragments, right?"

Naraku chuckled and said, "Of course I'm here for something. Or rather, to inform you that there are now five people who control the Four Souls Jade fragments."

"There are a total of nine Four Soul Jade fragments, and five of them currently have owners. At this point, the true battle for the Four Soul Jade has begun."

"With this ninja world as a chessboard, the pieces have already been placed."

Uchiha Madara narrowed his eyes upon hearing this, then snorted coldly, "Has this game finally reached its true stage? Interesting. Then, who are the other guys who have obtained the fragments of the Four Souls Jade?"

Naluo chuckled: "Sorry, I can't disclose this matter. After all, it is my mission to keep it secret."

"However, there is actually no need to worry about it, because the controllers of the Four Souls Jade fragments will be attracted to each other. I believe that sooner or later, Lord Uchiha Madara will encounter other powerful beings who possess the Four Souls Jade fragments."

After a pause, he continued, "However, before that, I have one more thing to tell you. That is, the miko who was once the custodian of the Four Souls Jade has also taken action. She has the power to find and sense the Four Souls Jade."

"That miko is the variable in this battle for the Four Souls Jade."

Uchiha Madara: "Wow? There's actually someone like this? Then, who is she?"

Naraku said that name.

"Miko—Kikyou!"

Chapter 629: It thundered, it rained, Erzhuzi...

As Naraku said this, the scene turned to Kikyo who was still in Konoha. The latter seemed to have sensed something and looked up into the distance, but because she didn't see anything, she didn't know what was going to happen.

However, people in the real world, who are looking at it from a God's perspective, are very clear that Kikyo is in danger.

Similarly, it was also directly known that there were a total of nine fragments of the Shikon Jade, five of which already had owners, one of whom was Uchiha Madara, and the owners of the remaining ones were still unknown.

However, judging from the fact that Uchiha Madara was able to restore his youth with just one piece and possessed a recovery ability far beyond that of ordinary people, even if it was just a fragment of the Four Souls Jade, the power it possessed was extremely terrifying.

Moreover, what Naraku did was very clear, and the sense of déjà vu was very strong, which immediately reminded people of the Holy Grail War.

The difference is that in the Holy Grail War, heroic spirits fight for a Holy Grail, and only after the battle is completed can they gain anything.

When competing for the Four Soul Jade, you can gain something by killing another person who holds a fragment of the Four Soul Jade. The more fragments of the Four Soul Jade a person holds, the greater the advantage he or she will have.

Moreover, unlike the Holy Grail War which was fought only in Fuyuki City, this battle for the Shikon Jewel was fought in the entire Ninja World.

Although the Ninja World is much smaller than the Earth, the map is still incomparable.

Even though it's just the beginning, the pressure has already been raised.

So, here comes the question...

What was the outcome of the battle between Uchiha Madara and Uchiha Sasuke?

People in the real world want to know, people in the Uchiha family want to know, Uchiha Sasuke's friends want to know, Uchiha Sasuke's good friend Uzumaki Naruto wants to know even more, and Uchiha Sasuke himself wants to know the most.

Then, as if responding to people's expectations.

The image on the light screen directly showed the appearance of Uchiha Sasuke.

He was covered in wounds, and at this moment he spat out blood with a "wow".

Looking closely, I found that I was in a dilapidated wooden temple, which looked very messy and terrible.

Obviously, this injury is much more serious than Uchiha Madara's.

The opening lightning strike shocked everyone, and immediately made many people worry about Uchiha Sasuke's injury.

Among them are not only people who know Uchiha Sasuke in the real world, but also many passers-by, most of whom are women.

After all, Uchiha Sasuke's good looks are there, and his cool and handsome appearance is very attractive to passers-by.

Then, among those who cared about Uchiha Sasuke, Senju Hashirama couldn't help but complain: "Madara, look at you, you are so cruel to your juniors, it's totally wrong."
