Bang bang bang!
Bai Yu used the chakra scalpel to quickly slap the white creature's body, and the opponent stopped struggling instantly.
However, in Bai Yu's perception, the energy field of this white creature is still very active.
"What is this? It looks like a human, but why does the energy field look like a plant? If I don't actively activate my "sixth sense" to enhance my perception, I can't even detect him. "
Bai Yu's mind changed rapidly.
"It seems that you are not simple either!" Bai Yu glanced at the little white snake coiled on his shoulder. He thought it was the most ordinary snake-like psychic beast with a pitifully weak energy field, but he didn't expect it to be so sharp.
"There's something weird here, it's better to leave first!"
Bai Yu used the seal scroll to store the body of the white creature, and quickly left the forest with the little white snake.
...
Less than a few miles away from the forest where Bai Yu left, there was a naturally formed cave.
Perhaps no one would have imagined that there is a cave directly beneath the cave.
Tick tock...
Tick tock...
Tick tock...
The sound of falling water echoed in the dark and damp underground space.
An old man with gray hair sat on a stone throne, and a sickle-shaped weapon was leaning against the wall next to the stone throne.
With the old man's current appearance, I'm afraid that the first time I saw him, I would associate him with the God of Death in hell.
"Hey! Madara! Do you think I discovered something interesting outside?! You'd never expect it!" A yelp sounded, completely breaking the originally eerie and quiet atmosphere.
A white humanoid creature emerged from the ground and came to the old man named "Madara", as if hoping to see the other person's curious expression.
However, the old man didn't even raise his eyelids and just sat quietly on the stone seat.
"Hey~ It's really not interesting at all!" The white creature couldn't help complaining.
At this time, the old man slowly opened his eyes and said indifferently: "A Fei, what did you find?"
"I discovered an interesting ninja in the past few days. He has been looking for something nearby, which seems to be some kind of grass. I sent a clone to eat all the interesting-looking grass nearby in advance. It is really unpalatable! By the way, I'm good If you want to have no sense of taste, of course..."
Ah Fei kept chattering, and the topic went further and further away.
"Tell me the important point." Madara said calmly.
"Just now! My clone observed him at close range and hid less than one meter away from his feet, but was discovered by him. When I rushed over, the clone had already been killed by him, and the body was collected by him before it touched the ground. Get up." A Fei explained.
"Oh? Have you been discovered?" Madara raised his eyebrows, his tone a little surprised.
He knew Bai Jue's abilities very well.
As a special life form cultivated with Hashirama cells, Bai Zetsu's body can use the 'Ephemera Technique' to perfectly integrate with the earth.
The speed at which Bai Jue moves underground is not inferior to the speed of a ninja running at full speed on the ground.
The most important thing is that Bai Jue's body's chakra response is extremely weak.
If you want to sense White Zetsu, you must have extremely strong perception ability, or have the Byakugan of the Hyuuga clan.
Even so, when a single White Zetsu is integrated with the earth and remains still, it is difficult to be observed by perception and Byakugan.
"What should I do? Should I go and get the clone back?!" A Fei looked a little eager to try.
"Ignore him. Be careful in the future and don't expose him again." Madara did not allow Bai Zetsu's body to leave.
Ah Fei was a little disappointed: "Well, it's a pity, I still want to play with him again! What about my mission?"
"Wait until the Ninja World War is over, then slowly look for candidates. Uchiha ninjas will not let me down."
Madara said calmly, closing his eyes again.
A Fei left the underground space angrily.
The whole space seemed to become darker.
Behind the stone seat, there seemed to be a huge shadow hidden. I didn't know what it was. I could only see something like a conduit, extending from the darkness and connecting to the back of Madara's head and back.
I'm afraid no one would believe it if I told him that Uchiha Madara, who had an unparalleled battle with the ninja god Senju Hashirama in the Valley of the End more than 20 years ago and was thought to be dead for a long time, is still alive today.
It's just that he is already over seventy years old and has lost the courage that he once dominated the Warring States Period and shocked the ninja world.
Today, Madara is just an old man living on his last breath, waiting for death to come.
...
Bai Yu came to a small town not far from Kusakunin Village and met Uchiha Chiho and Hyuga Hideto.
Then, the three of them rushed to the frontline camp together.
When he returned to the camp, Bai Yu clearly felt that something was wrong in the atmosphere.
When he saw Orochimaru in the camp, he looked very unhappy.
After asking, I found out that the envoys sent by the village to Sunagakure and Iwagakure had been attacked.
The envoy sent by the village to Iwagakure was composed of six jounin, led by Tsunade. After the details of the alliance had been finalized, they were attacked by two groups of ninjas on the way back.
The elite jounin in the team, Kato Dan, and two other jounin were killed.
The jounin itself is a high-end combat power. As an elite jounin, Kato Duan learned the spiritual transformation technique developed by the second generation Hokage.
The Spiritual Transformation Technique is an S-level soul ninjutsu that can cause the soul to leave the body. It can separate one's spirit from the body and turn it into a spirit body. It can shuttle and possess the enemy regardless of distance, causing the enemy's spirit to collapse from the inside and die.
With his spiritual transformation technique, Kato Dan's strength is second only to the Sannin and White Fang in Konoha.
On the other side, the four-man Konoha team that went to Sunagakure was also completely wiped out, and the five ninjas from Sunagakure who came to greet the envoy were also killed.
Seven Jonin were killed in Konoha at once. Although it was not a serious injury, it was still a considerable loss.
The key point is that they did not die fighting against the enemy in the war, but were ambushed and killed by the enemy when Konoha, Sunagakure and Iwagakure were preparing to form an alliance.
For a time, the ninjas on the front line were excited and wanted Sunagakure and Iwagakure to give an explanation.
However, Sunagakure and Iwagakure started Tai Chi with Konoha.
Sunagakure said that it was Iwagakure who was causing trouble, and he wanted the Third Tsuchikage Onoki to give an explanation.
Onoki said that Iwagakure did not know about it.
The Third Kazekage wrote to the Third Hokage, asking for an explanation from Iwagakure Village in conjunction with Konoha.
The third Tsuchikage took a tough stance and said he was not afraid of a fight.
"Teacher Orochimaru, what that village means..." Bai Yu already had a guess in his mind.
"The third generation asked me to make defense arrangements at the border and then lead the army back to the village." Orochimaru looked tired.
"Sunagakure and Iwagakure are trying to weaken the village as much as possible to prepare for the next war."
Bai Yu frowned.
"You and I both understand this, and the higher-ups also know it, but what they want is to end the war immediately. This is an order! We can only obey it. You inform Chiho and Hideto to prepare and come back with me in the near future." Orochimaru revealed He showed a deep sense of boredom. He hated war, but he hated politics even more.
Life is really too fragile.
Even the top elite jounin in a village would die at the drop of a hat.
He died for peace, became a cold name on the memorial tablet, and became a hero in people's mouth.
Even if it is a false and short-lived peace.
"I understand, I'll get ready right now."
Bai Yu nodded, rarely seeing Orochimaru show such an obvious emotional reaction.
