Even now, they still occasionally recall their experience of being trapped in nightmares and feel a sense of fear about it.
Therefore, after they heard Jiraiya mention the appearance of the white-haired boy, they could no longer sit still.
Upon seeing this, Jiraiya, who was in the middle of speaking, stopped and looked at Ai and Onoki, the Libra, with a frown, asking, "Judging from your reactions, do you also know about the white-haired boy?"
Ai and Onoki, the two-scaled creatures, no longer had any reservations and directly recounted their experiences with Hidan.
When they heard that Hidan could not be killed by any means, and that he could be resurrected even if he was reduced to dust, the expressions of everyone else present changed.
In their worldview and understanding, even the Sage of Six Paths could not achieve this.
They could not imagine, nor could they accept, that a human being could possess such an immortal body.
Only Jiraiya, still in shock, gave Ai and Onoki, the two Libras, a deep look.
From Ai and Onoki's accounts, Jiraiya noticed a key point.
So why did Ai, Onoki, and Rasa meet in private?
Clearly, they must have had some ulterior motive at the time.
However, Jiraiya knew that now was not the time to dwell on these things, so he kept the matter to himself and did not bring it up.
From A and Onoki's accounts, Jiraiya learned that Rasa and the other two were likely manipulated by Hidan at that time.
This can be described as trying to steal a chicken but losing the rice instead; they brought it on themselves.
Without dwelling on the matter any longer, Jiraiya focused his attention on something else.
Jiraiya also noticed another key point from the accounts of Ai and Onoki of the Two Scales: they were all unknowingly falling into a nightmare.
Even now, the Jonin who followed them back then are still trapped in the nightmare and have not yet awakened.
Jiraiya also recalled that in the final moments of his life, he too had unexpectedly fallen into a nightmare.
At the time, Jiraiya thought he was under a genjutsu, but now it seems that it was a nightmare and not just a simple genjutsu.
Moreover, at that time, Hashirama Senju, Tobirama Senju, and Tsunade, as well as the summoned beasts present, should have been trapped in a nightmare just like him.
Only in this way could the four of them be killed by Chen Anxia without their knowledge.
As for summoned beasts, after being resurrected through the Impure World Reincarnation, Jiraiya attempted to summon them again, hoping to learn about the situation from Fukasaku and Shima.
Jiraiya failed and was unable to summon Fukasaku and Shima.
Jiraiya was initially puzzled by this, unsure of the reason.
It now seems highly likely that Fukasaku and Shima Senjin also fell victim to Chen Anxia's treachery.
An indescribable grief overwhelmed Jiraiya at that moment.
But Jiraiya held back and shared his analysis.
After delivering his analysis, amidst the trembling and terrified expressions of those present, Jiraiya once again dropped a bombshell.
Jiraiya said with a heavy expression, "You should prepare yourselves, because the news I'm about to tell you will probably be hard for you to accept."
With that, Jiraiya gave everyone present time to prepare themselves.
Then, Jiraiya spoke up, saying, "The white-haired youth called Chen Anxia an evil god and claimed that all his abilities were bestowed upon him by Chen Anxia!"
......
Chapter 640 Wolves in Front, Tigers in the Back: The Ninja Alliance!
Those present had been deeply shaken countless times today, each shock more profound than the last, making it impossible for them to remain numb.
Without a doubt, Jiraiya's words at this moment were the most shocking to them, even more so than Chen Anxia's seemingly divine abilities.
Even if they racked their brains, they couldn't imagine that Hidan's abilities were actually bestowed by Chen Anxia.
So the question is, how exactly did Chen Anxia bestow such abnormal abilities? Besides Hidan, has Chen Anxia granted similar abilities to anyone else?
They all knew very well that if Chen Anxia had the ability to mass-produce monsters like Hidan, then this battle wouldn't even need to be fought.
Because they have already lost.
Imagine if Chen Anxia possessed such an immortal army, coupled with his own terrifying abilities and power, who in the ninja world could defeat him?
Even with the strength of the dead, they probably still couldn't win.
They can only hope now that Chen Anxia's favors are limited, and not unlimited.
Of course, they can only hope.
For a moment, the venue for the Four Shadows meeting was filled with a sense of despondency.
Even the three Kage—Ai, Onoki, and Mei Terumi—were demoralized, with a hint of despair and helplessness flashing across their faces.
They couldn't help but wonder, 'Could it be that Chen Anxia is really a god... an evil god...?'
Jiraiya knew all along that his words would elicit such a reaction, which is why he had everyone mentally prepared themselves beforehand.
However, despite being mentally prepared, the news still caused morale to collapse.
Seeing this, Jiraiya took a deep breath and said, "We still have hope of defeating Chen Anxia."
Jiraiya's words cheered some people up, but most people assumed that Jiraiya's hope was to draw on the power of the dead, so they didn't react much.
Because they know very well that the power of the dead is limited and they cannot possess all the strength they had in life.
So, can the power of the dead really defeat Chen Anxia and his possibly undead army?
Not to mention, Chen Anxia also possesses an unknown ability that can unknowingly plunge people into nightmares.
This unknown ability has affected a host of Kage-level and even Super Kage-level powerhouses, including A, Onoki of the Two Scales, Rasa, and Hashirama Senju, without them even realizing it. They certainly don't think they can avoid being affected.
Jiraiya took in everyone's reactions and knew what they were thinking. He continued, "The hope I'm talking about isn't just the power of the dead, but also the legendary progenitor of chakra, the mother of the Sage of Six Paths, the goddess Uzuki - Kaguya Otsutsuki."
This time, everyone finally responded to Jiraiya's words.
Although they were unaware of Kaguya Otsutsuki's existence, they could understand why Jiraiya was given the title of Kaguya Otsutsuki, and they knew the weight of such a title.
Without hesitation, Jiraiya relayed the information about Princess Kaguya Otsutsuki that the Great Toad Sage had given him to everyone present.
As Jiraiya recounted his story, the expressions on the faces of those present changed constantly.
It can be said that Princess Kaguya Otsutsuki was the darkness that shrouded the entire world in her era.
If they hadn't been defeated and sealed away by the Sage of Six Paths and his brothers, this world would probably have been completely different, and they might not even exist anymore.
However, they had to admit that, based on Jiraiya's description of Kaguya Otsutsuki's strength, she might actually be able to defeat Chen Anxia.
But will Princess Kaguya Otsutsuki really help them defeat Chen Anxia?
Even if Kaguya Otsutsuki did help them defeat Chen Anxia, who can guarantee that she wouldn't want to rule the world again later?
When that time comes, how will they defeat, or rather, reseal, Princess Kaguya Otsutsuki?
It's important to understand that they don't possess the power of the Sage of Six Paths brothers.
If things really develop to this point, wouldn't it be like we just drove away the wolf, only to have an even bigger threat, the tiger, appear right afterward?
This lingering concern in everyone's hearts prevented them from responding to Jiraiya's words for a long time.
Jiraiya, aware of everyone's concerns, continued, "In the future foreseen by the Great Toad Sage, Princess Kaguya Otsutsuki was originally destined to be the last to be unsealed from darkness, defeated by the Child of Prophecy, and resealed."
"Although the world line has changed because of Chen Anxia's appearance, one thing remains the same regardless of whether the world line has changed or not."
"That means Princess Kaguya Otsutsuki is not invincible. As long as we find the right method, we can reseal her."
Jiraiya's words did not completely dispel everyone's concerns, but they made everyone grit their teeth and make a decision.
No, to be more precise, there is simply no choice now.
Because if they don't unseal Kaguya Otsutsuki, they probably won't even be able to get past Chen Anxia.
If Kaguya Otsutsuki is unsealed, although she will still face danger from Chen Anxia after dealing with her, at least she will have survived Chen Anxia's ordeal.
Things will work themselves out; let's resolve the immediate crisis first.
After making their choices, the group discussed resurrecting the dead, finding clues to unseal Princess Kaguya Otsutsuki, and locating the burial site of the Sage of Six Paths' body.
The reason for searching for the burial place of the Sage of Six Paths is naturally to try and see if the Sage of Six Paths can be resurrected through the impure earth.
If they can, the Ninja Alliance will undoubtedly have their trump card and pillar.
Even though the Sage of Six Paths, resurrected through Edo Tensei, cannot possess all the power he had in his previous life, his experience and knowledge are the greatest treasure of the Shinobi Alliance.
Perhaps the Sage of Six Paths will know more about Chen Anxia's abilities and how to deal with him.
As for information about Princess Kaguya Otsutsuki, there's even less to say.
After nearly a day and a night of discussion, the Four Shadows meeting finally came to a close.
Afterwards, the mediums belonging to the ancestors of the various ninja villages were found by the respective villages and sent to Konoha, where Konoha performed the Impure World Reincarnation.
While one ninja predecessor after another was being resurrected using the Impure World Reincarnation technique, the Nine-Tails, having recovered from its injuries, finally charged towards Konoha Village.
After all, the Nine-Tails is a tailed beast formed from the chakra of the Ten-Tails, so even though it suffered such severe injuries, it quickly healed itself.
Nine-Tailed Fox now has only one thought in mind: to complete the task assigned by Chen Anxia.
After completing this, find a place to live in seclusion and hide until the monster Chen Anxia dies, then reappear.
In the eyes of the Nine-Tails, the ninja world with Chen Anxia present was far too dangerous...
......
Chapter 641 Konoha in Panic, the Nine-Tails' rampage repeats itself!
"Nine...Nine-Tails is here!!"
With a terrified scream, Konoha, which had only managed a few days of peace, was plunged into panic once again.
The older generation of villagers, in particular, felt as if they had returned to the fear of being shrouded by the Nine-Tails.
The younger generation in the village, although they did not personally experience the Nine-Tails' rampage, had grown up listening to stories about it, and a seed of fear had long been deeply rooted in their hearts.
At this moment, upon learning that the Nine-Tails had attacked again, the seed of fear was immediately nourished and nurtured, and began to take root, sprout, and grow rapidly.
Not only the villagers of Konoha in this world, but even the players who came to find the Nine-Tails were thrown into panic by its arrival.
It's important to know that players are located in various ninja villages throughout the ninja world.
