In Konoha, Naruto lies down

The noise alarmed the tribesmen who were on night patrol, and they all came over from the dark.

"Lord Neji! What happened?"

Hearing this, Neji didn't answer directly. He frowned and glanced at the wall. Then he turned his head to look at the night scene in the courtyard, and finally looked at the people who had gathered around him.

"Did you see a dark figure running past this wall?"

"Dark Shadow?"

"No, I just ran over here because I heard the noise."

"Yeah, yeah, me too."

Several people looked at each other in confusion. The more Neji thought about it, the more suspicious he felt. He ignored them and walked straight out of the courtyard.

Ningci walked away, and several people followed suit. The last person walked to a corner, slowly raised his head in the darkness, looked back at the clan leader's house, and left.

At Hyuga Hiashi's house, Hinata was sitting at the table with a distressed look on her face, looking at a detailed diagram of knitting a scarf. The diagram was too heavy and had to be placed on the table.

After looking at it under the lamp for a long time, he couldn't help but sigh, picked up the needle and thread again and started trying.

"Naruto doesn't seem to like tea very much. I thought he would like it." Hinata murmured to herself, "The scarf... I don't know if he will like it. Maybe he will."

"This pattern seems a bit complicated, I don't know how to draw it... woooo!"

She looked aggrieved, frantically working under the lamp for a while, her eyes becoming dry from squinting. She put down her needlework and rubbed her eyes.

Hinata looked up and realized it was already late. She thought she was smart, but for some reason, she was helpless when it came to sewing.

Even more frustrating, she found herself unable to even lower her head to rest on the table due to the strain on her body. Her back ached after a while, and it was no longer a rest at all.

She actually hoped it would be smaller, but then she changed her mind and decided to forget it, despite the inconveniences. But Naruto seemed to care a lot, so if that was the case...it wouldn't be a bad thing.

Just as Hinata was about to stand up, she suddenly noticed a half-person appearing out of thin air on the ground. She subconsciously stepped back at a high speed, her silly eyes suddenly stern.

Black Zetsu just smiled, and countless tree trunks and vines rolled up around him, instantly trapping Hinata in a rattan ball. Almost in the blink of an eye, the rattan ball exploded from the inside with a crack.

The moment the cage was broken, Hinata didn't hesitate at all, she turned over and tried to escape through the window. Black Zetsu's strength was not too strong, barely at the level of a jonin, but his ability was a bit disgusting.

He has been implanted with cells from Hashirama Senju, giving him some Wood Release abilities. He can sink into the ground or trees whenever he touches them.

Hinata is just a bit weak at ordinary times, but she is also a tough person at heart. Even if her strength is not very strong, she is still a serious jonin. It is completely reasonable for her to break free from the constraints of a weakling like Kaihei Zetsu.

Seeing Hinata about to break out of the window, she gritted her teeth and reached out to protect her head, but at the last second she was caught in a huge twisting vortex.

She had no way to avoid it and crashed right in.

The next second, Uchiha Obito appeared in Hinata's room, looking at Black Zetsu who almost missed the target with a blank expression. Black Zetsu smiled awkwardly and pointed at something on the table and said.

"Take that thing to Uzumaki Naruto, he's sure to react."

Uchiha Obito turned around and looked at the things on the table. He was stunned to see a thread end and two knitting needles lying there quietly.

Nohara Lin seemed to have knitted a scarf before, but I didn't have the chance to ask her who she was going to give it to.

After a moment of trance, Uchiha Obito swept the unfinished needlework off the table and left. Black Zetsu followed him and soon disappeared into the ground.

........

Naruto was walking down the main street of Konoha, not quite sure where the uneasiness in his heart came from. A gust of night wind blew by, and he stopped.

"Uzumaki Naruto, when did you come back?" The man who spoke fell from the roof like a light swift.

She was dressed as an Anbu ninja, with an animal mask on her face and a short sword slung behind her. The moment she took off the mask, her purple hair spread out like bellflowers.

"Long time no see, I just came back yesterday." Naruto greeted the man and forced a smile.

"Really?" Uzuki Yugao took two steps towards Naruto. "You don't look very well. What happened?"

"When did you start caring about my private affairs?" he asked.

"After nightfall, ensure the safety of every villager and eliminate any abnormal conditions." Mao Yue Xi Yan stood there and spoke lightly.

"This is the ANBU's responsibility, and it's also my responsibility."

"As expected of an Anbu captain, you know the rules and regulations so well by heart." Naruto clapped his hands a few times and said perfunctorily, "Has anything happened in the village recently?"

"Well... nothing special, except that you returned to the village." Uzuki Yugao looked at Naruto, her eyes turning slightly, "Are you worried about something? Or did you discover something?"

"No." Naruto shook his head and said frankly, "I was just a little uneasy. I was worried that something might happen, so I came out for a walk."

"Got it. You go on. I'll notify you as soon as anything happens." Mao Yue Xi Yan was about to turn around and leave. This was considered a greeting to an acquaintance.

This notification was very clever. Naruto had worked with Uzuki Yugao for many years and knew her personality well. Since they said they would notify him immediately, he would definitely be the first one.

This was also thanks to the close friendship between the two, otherwise a ANBU captain would not do this for him.

"Yeah." He nodded.

It was late at night, Naruto thought for a moment, and walked towards the Yamanaka Flower Shop. Although he thought the idea was a bit absurd, he still wanted to verify it before he could rest assured.

But not long after he walked, he suddenly stopped, turned around and stared at a corner.

"Come out!" Naruto said.

There was a moment of silence, and then a half-black, half-white figure rose from the dark corner. It wasn't an ordinary human rising, but rather something like a dissolved substance lying in reverse.

Through the dim light of the street lamp, he finally saw clearly what it was. The figure of Black Zetsu slowly emerged from the darkness, its half-black, half-white body looking a little deformed.

Seeing this, Naruto didn't say anything, thinking to himself that something was wrong. The moment he saw Black Zetsu, he already had a bad feeling in his heart.

"Uzumaki Naruto?" A lively smile appeared on the face of Black Zetsu's other half, White Zetsu. On the contrary, his other half, Black Zetsu, looked relatively dull.

"It's me." Naruto's face darkened.

"Since it's you, then come with me now. Remember not to tell anyone." Bai Zetsu said with a smile, while Hei Zetsu remained silent.

"Why?"

"Haha, just this." Black Zetsu spoke and threw two things over, one was Ino's communicator, and the other was a scarf with a knitted beginning on it by Hinata.

Naruto took a quick look and the haze in his eyes instantly became so dark that it could color the night sky.

"Yo yo yo, how scary!" The half-body White Zetsu said with a smile, pretending to be scared, "Don't look at me like that, I'll be scared."

"You captured Ino and Hinata?" He asked patiently and coldly, "Did you capture them? Black Zetsu, you don't have that ability, so you have helpers, right?"

"Who is it? Uchiha Obito?"

Hearing this, Black Zetsu and White Zetsu were both stunned for a moment. White Zetsu immediately shut up, and the taciturn Black Zetsu took over the conversation and stared at Naruto.

"You don't need to know, just follow us."

"Huh~" Naruto took a deep breath, his eyes fixed on Black Zetsu, "One last question, are they safe now?"

Black Zetsu grinned, but didn't say anything, just stared at him with amusement.

Seeing this, Naruto closed his eyes and spoke viciously after a moment.

"If they get hurt at all, I will definitely resurrect Kaguya Otsutsuki and Rin Nohara, turn them into bastards, and beat them three thousand times."

Chapter 441 It’s better to kill someone than to kill one’s heart

When it comes to extremes, no one is more extreme than Uzumaki Naruto.

He is a person who can tear out people's soft spots alive and roast them over fire. More importantly, most of the famous villains in the ninja world have almost no secrets in front of him.

For example, Orochimaru, Kabuto Yakushi, Nagato... and Uchiha Obito, and the Black Zetsu in front of him.

Silence. After he growled those words, there was a minute-long silence. Black Zetsu was almost in a daze, as if the computer had crashed, and he was completely stunned.

Naruto's words about resurrecting Kaguya Otsutsuki and turning her into a demon made Black Zetsu's head buzz.

How could he know his mother? How could he know... Uchiha Obito? Impossible! Absolutely impossible. He is just a Nine-Tails Jinchuriki.

For the first time in a thousand years, Black Zetsu felt his scalp tingle, even though he had no scalp at all. A chilling chill slowly spread through his heart like a venomous snake, and then the look he gave Naruto changed.

"It's not a good thing for you to know too much. Now I have changed my mind. Either you kill yourself now, or those two women will die."

Hearing this, Naruto didn't seem so nervous. His eyes, which had been fixed on Black Zetsu, relaxed. He suddenly relaxed, a harmless smile on his face, and spoke calmly.

"Kaguya Otsutsuki should also be in human form, right? What would happen if she were to be paired with a sow's bloodline and transformed? Hmm? What do you think? A scrap of Otsutsuki."

"You really don't care about the life and death of those two women?" Black Zetsu stared at Naruto.

"Of course I care. I also know that you are just a clone." Naruto stood there, looking at Black Zetsu from a distance. "Uchiha Obito is just a chess piece of yours. You can abandon him at any time."

"What do you want to say?" There was an even stronger hint of fear in Black Zetsu's eyes.

"I just want to tell you that I know a lot of things, not just this." Having said this, Naruto paused, staring at Black Zetsu and spoke word by word.

"The Otsutsuki clan is not immortal. All their information is stored in a container called a 'wedge', and they are constantly reincarnated and replaced."

"But this process is not unbreakable; the 'wedge' can be destroyed and transformed."

".......I don't understand what you are saying." Black Zetsu still had that poker face. He said he didn't understand, but the light in his eyes was enough to kill people.

"It doesn't matter if you don't understand, you can understand it by reading, right?" Naruto snapped his fingers, and with a snap, a coffin instantly appeared in the same place.

Seeing this, Black Zetsu was once again taken aback. Is this... Impure World Reincarnation? He was very familiar with this move. Even if Impure World Reincarnation didn't surprise him, it didn't seem to require a sacrifice.

This is completely different from the original Impure World Reincarnation concept, one is in heaven and the other is in hell.

"Do you understand? Impure World Reincarnation is just a small thing in my eyes. As for the Rinnegan, there is no secret at all in my eyes." He said.

"What do you want to prove?" Black Zetsu stared at him.

"I just want to tell you that I not only know a lot, but I can do more." Naruto spread his hands and smiled at Black Zetsu, "Even a wedge can be broken and transformed."

"And there's one more thing you might not know, the Nine-Tails has already been ripped out of my body. Similarly, I can also rip out the tailed beasts from the bodies of other tailed beast Jinchuriki without any injuries."

"I am more powerful than you. I can also retract the nine tailed beasts and the Samsara Eye. Therefore, it will not be too difficult for me to resurrect Kaguya Otsutsuki."

"Just imagine, what would happen if I gathered all nine tails, resurrected Kaguya Ōtsutsuki, and integrated her wedge into the sow's bloodline? Hmm? What would happen if I added some wood grooves?"

The light in Black Zetsu's eyes flickered, and he looked at Naruto with a deeper fear. He wanted to kill the man in front of him immediately, but he had to act cautiously.

"So..." Naruto showed an extreme and cruel smile on his face, pointing his finger at Black Zetsu, "I'm just advising you that if you don't want that bitch Kaguya Otsutsuki to turn into a lowly pig dog, you'd better not mess around."

"Otherwise, no matter where you are, I will catch you and make you watch with your own eyes as Kaguya Otsutsuki gradually becomes the lowest human being in the eyes of your bloodline, suffers humiliation, and then becomes a pig and a dog, crawling on the ground."

Cold words were crawling around in Hei Zetsu's mind, and as the man spoke in a decisive tone, a vivid scene even appeared before his eyes.

Shaking his head, Black Zetsu looked at Naruto, and Naruto looked at him too.

He didn't believe that man had the power to fight against his mother. He just needed to wait until his mother was resurrected and suck all the life energy from the planet.

As for the madman in front of him, the more he yelled, the more he cared about those two women. Thinking of this, Black Zetsu felt a little more confident.

The next second, he disappeared without saying anything.

Naruto stood there and watched the whole thing, not moving forward to stop a clone from disappearing. The sudden change made his heart even colder to the bone.

Before obtaining the Yomiuri Gate, Naruto was afraid of the power of Obito's Sharingan and the all-encompassing reconnaissance ability of Black Zetsu.

That's why he tried his best to avoid contact with Uchiha Obito and Black Zetsu. After all, he knew he had a weak spot, and the later he entered Uchiha Obito's sight, the better.

Naruto felt relieved when he completed the mission and obtained Izanagi, as well as the Yomiuri Gate in the abyss of the Land of Whirlpools.

This is his confidence. No one can do anything to his people under his nose. He doesn't have to worry about being led by the nose when he wants to capture Uchiha Obito and Black Zetsu.

The news of Hinata and Ino's accident should spread soon. Naruto directly opened the Yellow Springs Gate, stepped out, and walked in without looking back.

Konoha Cemetery, above.

A dark golden gate appeared out of nowhere, and Naruto stepped out. Looking at the silent tombstones in the night, he muttered to himself.

"You were the first to behave like a bad person. Don't blame me. I really want to be a good person."

Two years ago, Naruto had come to this cemetery with Kakashi by chance. They had visited Nohara Rin's tombstone together, and he knew exactly where Nohara Rin's remains were buried.

He took a step forward with a familiar pace, but in the blink of an eye he had walked a long way. Finally, Naruto stopped in front of a tombstone and glanced at it.

This is an old tombstone, which looks like it has been weathered by the wind and rain for more than ten years. It may contain bones or ashes.

No matter what was inside, he could awaken something from it. This was the purpose of Impure World Reincarnation, and the reason it was created.

"Excuse me, Kakashi's close friend. I am Kakashi's disciple. Now a small incident has occurred and I have to disturb your peace."

"If you want to blame someone, blame that bastard Uchiha Obito. He really deserves to die."

After muttering, Naruto snapped his fingers, and the soil on the ground instantly parted. The grass cracked, revealing a hideous wound.

A coffin was erected silently. The heavy coffin looked particularly eerie in the dim light. With a bang, the coffin lid opened instantly.

Under the hazy moonlight, this was the first time Naruto saw Nohara Lin in person.
