Chapter 78 Now We're All Together (Fifth Update)
At the border of the Water Kingdom, fog hangs thick, like a shadow that devours everything.
At this moment, Black Zetsu, Itachi Uchiha, and Juzo Biwa were all in an extremely difficult situation.
The battle with Obito and Danzo just now resulted in heavy losses.
In particular, Itachi Uchiha suffered a severe blow from Obito's powerful eye power, resulting in significant damage to both his mind and body.
As for Black Zetsu, his face was filled with disbelief...:
Itachi knelt wearily on the ground, his face as pale as paper.
Just as they were at their wits' end, Xiao Nan's figure slowly descended from the sky.
She transformed into countless pieces of paper, drifting down like fluttering leaves, eventually forming her calm yet resolute appearance.
"Now is not the time to dwell on the Land of Water's problems. We must return to Amegakure as soon as possible to stabilize the situation."
Hearing Konan's words, Black Zetsu finally slowly raised his head, regaining some of his senses.
His mind was in turmoil, and he even vaguely sensed that the current situation was beyond his control.
Of the five great ninja villages, Kirigakure became a breeding ground for world destruction after this battle...
Meanwhile, the situation inside Konoha Village remains unclear.
Nagato...
Perhaps it truly is the hope of the apocalypse.
Black Zetsu knew very well that with the current dilapidated state, he could not support Nagato in continuing to carry out that massive plan.
A thought flashed through his mind, and his gaze locked onto the weakened Uchiha Itachi as he slowly approached him.
He reached out his hand, and a portion of the White Zetsu cells, like liquid life, rapidly separated from his hand and slowly merged into Itachi Uchiha's body.
Itachi clearly felt an indescribable warmth and powerful energy surging into his body.
This power rapidly repaired his damaged body, and even his third Sharingan, which was on the verge of going completely out of control, gradually closed and temporarily fell into a dormant state.
Konan witnessed all of this: "White Zetsu... it actually has such a miraculous effect?"
Black Zetsu remained calm, even waving his hand dismissively as if he didn't care at all.
"This is just a split form of White Zetsu. Any serious injury can be quickly replenished with the help of White Zetsu to replenish life force and chakra."
"Replenish life force and chakra?"
Xiao Nan repeated it to herself...
Seeing this, Black Zetsu deliberately acted nonchalantly, casually splitting off three more White Zetsu from his body and tossing them carelessly towards Konan:
"These White Zetsu clones have many uses, so you should all take them."
"Perhaps you'll need it in the future..."
Looking at the White Zetsu clones that Black Zetsu had casually tossed to her, Konan subconsciously felt somewhat uncomfortable and even wary.
A vague unease crept into his heart; these things might be hiding some kind of Black Zetsu's unspoken secret, and a sense of resistance naturally arose within him.
However, in that instant of hesitation, Nagato, shrouded in distant shadows, slowly spoke to Konan via mental communication in a low voice:
"Xiao Nan... please accept these for now."
Hearing Nagato's words, Konan was clearly surprised and replied in a low voice, "But, Nagato, we don't understand this thing. What if Black Zetsu tampered with it..."
Nagato coughed violently a few times in the darkness, his voice low and weary, yet revealing an unwavering resolve and determination...
"Konan, we have no other choice now. Only by restoring me to my fullest state can we truly resolve this crisis in the ninja world and save this world..."
After a moment of silence, Konan slowly reached out and took the White Zetsu clone in front of her.
"I understand, Nagato. I will cooperate with you."
Black Zetsu stood quietly to the side, nodding inwardly.
Now, Nagato will truly become the savior.
The sky over the Uchiha clan compound was overcast, shrouded in a heavy and oppressive atmosphere.
Tsunade, Jiraiya, and the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, rushed to the scene. The mess they saw left them speechless, all shocked by the sight.
The Uchiha clan's territory was now in ruins, and the air was filled with the smell of burning, as if it had just experienced a devastating disaster.
What shocked and unsettled everyone was that Tobirama Senju looked extremely solemn, and the shadow behind him was none other than Orochimaru, who had been wanted by Konoha for many years!
"What...what exactly did you do?"
Hiruzen could no longer suppress his shock and anger, and questioned him sharply.
He had a vague, ominous feeling that these two coming together...
Jiraiya then looked at Orochimaru: "Why are you here? What have you done?"
Orochimaru, hearing Jiraiya's angry question, could only sigh helplessly, his voice revealing a hint of weariness.
"The Second Hokage and I attempted to summon Uchiha Shisui using the Impure World Reincarnation technique, hoping he could change Uchiha Gen's damned wish to destroy the world..."
Upon hearing this, the room fell into a deathly silence.
Tsunade, Jiraiya, and Hiruzen all stared at the two in shock. Hiruzen's face turned pale and then red, and his body trembled slightly.
His voice trembled as he questioned:
"Teacher! How could you be so disrespectful to life and soul? You knew the consequences of that forbidden technique, yet you still recklessly used it?"
Faced with Hiruzen's heartbroken questioning, Tobirama suddenly fell silent.
His face was terribly gloomy, but deep down he knew that no matter how he tried to explain himself, he couldn't hide the fact that he had failed.
He has always been proud and arrogant, and even when the problem has become unbearably serious, he will not shift the blame onto anyone.
He won't shirk responsibility, nor does he deign to.
After a brief silence, Tobirama stared at Hiruzen: "Then tell me, what method can we use to stop this falling, world-destroying planet? Just your so-called mercy and goodwill?"
Tobirama's question left Hiruzen speechless for a moment.
At this moment, the atmosphere had reached a stalemate. Jiraiya glanced at Tsunade and Hiruzen, whose emotions were gradually becoming agitated.
He decided to calmly steer the conversation back to the most important point: "So, what was the result... Second Generation Lord?"
Tobirama turned his head slightly upon hearing this.
Orochimaru, upon hearing this, explained on behalf of Tobirama:
"The curse of Uchiha Abyss may have caused some kind of mutation that we cannot predict... In the future, those affected may no longer be limited to Sharingan users."
"As for just how powerful this mutation is, we have no idea yet."
After hearing this answer, Hiruzen shook his head wearily: "Teacher, the consequences of this..."
At this moment, Tobirama seemed to have completely lost patience and the desire to argue. He raised his hand to interrupt Hiruzen's words, his tone unusually firm and cold:
"We must immediately begin preparations for the Five Kage Summit. This situation is far beyond what Konoha alone can handle!"
"And that Akatsuki organization from Amegakure, we must involve them too!"
Hiruzen took a deep breath, his gaze complex as he looked at Tobirama and Orochimaru, finally letting out a helpless sigh: "It seems this is the only way..."
However, just as the group was preparing for their respective tasks, Jiraiya suddenly looked at Orochimaru and asked, "So, does this mean you've returned to Konoha?"
"Idiot, what's the point of asking this kind of question now?"
However, Jiraiya burst into laughter: "I'm so happy that we're reunited in the village once again. Now, even if the world is destroyed in the future, the three legendary ninja can die together."
Tsunade got angry upon hearing this.
"Damn Jiraiya, stop saying such unlucky things!"
Orochimaru:
idiot!
