Inside the damp air, surrounded by huge coiled trees, a figure sat motionless on a chair made of trees.

His eyes were open in the darkness, revealing a scarlet glow.

A short time later, a pale, swirl-faced humanoid creature appeared in front of him.

It is Bai Jue named Ah Fei.

"How's it going?"

Madara stared at Ah Fei with scarlet chakra eyes, asking how the situation was over there.

Ah Fei scratched his head, originally wanted Madara to praise him for repelling the enemy, but seeing Madara's grim demeanor, Ah Fei didn't dare to be funny at this time, so he replied seriously: "Although he is not a powerful guy, his difficult ability is first-class, so they accidentally ran away." ”

"Is the other party's bottom clear?"

Madara calmed down, wanting to know which village the ninja was the one who attacked him.

He had to figure out who had discovered his existence.

"According to the available intelligence, the other side does not look like it is within the system of the five great powers, and it is not human. One is a giant rock monster, and the other is a huge water snake, which is more like a psychic beast than a human. ”

"In other words, is there a meaning behind the main messenger?"

After Madara said this, he fell into deep thought.

Ah Fei nodded silently, although he didn't notice the existence of the main messenger behind the scenes, but this possibility is very high.

"Bai Jue, you told me before that some ninjas of the Uchiha clan defected to Konoha because of this."

"Yes, Madara-sama."

Bai Jue came here and said.

"Before that, all the white Jedi sent to Konoha were wiped out, and after that, you entered Konoha to investigate unharmed. It's true, too. ”

Bai Jue nodded, indeed as Madara said.

The white Jedi who were sent to infiltrate the Uchiha clan land before have all disappeared mysteriously.

It wasn't until the Uchiha's defection that things took a turn for the worse.

The corners of Madara's mouth raised slightly, revealing a hint of a smile, and muttered in a low voice: "It's really funny, if it's a coincidence, even I don't believe it." ”

There are so many elements of coincidence that this is no longer a coincidence that can be explained.

The other party must have discovered his existence.

It's just that he hasn't been identified yet.

"What do you mean?"

Bai Jue seemed to understand Madara's intentions.

"Although I can't be completely sure, the part of the ninjas who defected to Konoha is the most suspicious."

"Are you going to go to Konoha and explore again?"

"No, there is such a big thing, but there is no rumor of Konoha coming out, it is obvious that Konoha wants to minimize the impact of this defection. The information of those people must be top secret, and it must be at the top to be interrogated. It's not a place you can sneak into. ”

Madara shook his head and rejected Hakujue's proposal.

Konoha's defense system is clear to him.

The external perception barrier is only to defend against the invasion of foreign enemies, so that the corresponding tactics can be formulated in time to destroy the enemy.

However, the defense system of the Ministry of Intelligence and the data room that the Hokage's top officials can only inquire about exists separately, which is very different from his past time in Konoha.

It wouldn't be much of a problem to sneak in with the abilities of the White Jeeze, but how to get out was a problem.

The dark part of Konoha is still very deadly to Bai Jue.

If you get caught, Konoha will study the structure of the White Jedi and reveal the secrets of your side.

At this critical moment, Madara doesn't want to make a difference.

"So how? Do you make more white and protect it in the periphery? ”

Bai Jue became distressed.

"Of course, I still have a lot of power left here between the pillars, and I plan to use the flesh between the sacred tree and the pillars to create a few more special individuals. In the previous battle, the other party may have come to find out, and when we find out the strength of our side, it will not be so easy to dismiss next time, but to give our side a fatal blow. ”

Madara has this strong premonition.

"No wonder they retreated." Ah Fei was a little lost.

"That's just one aspect, Ah Fei, your information has been leaked. Now we both have some of our hole cards exposed, but neither of us knows what other cards the other hand has. ”

"So that means we have an advantage on our side, right?"

Bai Jue naively thinks so.

"No, we're at a big disadvantage."

"Huh?"

"Stupid, being able to find this place proves that your past whereabouts have been mastered by the enemy. That kid called Uchiha Obito, the other party must also know your purpose. It's even worse, and Nagato might have exposed something. I remember that one of the white jue sent to monitor Nagato before suddenly disappeared once. ”

Madara glanced at Bai Jue coldly.

Hearing Madara say this, a cold sweat broke out on Bai Jue's back.

I couldn't imagine that so many important things were exposed on my side.

Obito is okay to say, because it is not a necessity, but Nagato is Madara's most important pawn, and there must be no accidents there.

"That'...... What are we going to do next? ”

Bai Jue was completely flustered at this moment, the reason why they were so calm before was because they were completely on the dark side and not easy to be noticed.

Once it is noticed, and part of the purpose is figured out, it is undoubtedly the worst.

If the other party planned to do something to those two sides, with the strength of the Bai Jue and Ah Fei, it would be difficult to take care of it at all.

Besides, you should also pay attention to the safety of Madara's side.

Although the other party has not yet figured out their situation, as long as they continue to be tested like this, sooner or later, they will be found out.

When the time comes...... It's really dangerous.

"Originally planned to act."

"Huh?"

"But put a few more smoke bombs."

"How many more?"

"Send Bai Jue to the rest of the ninja villages, pretending to search for information and plotting something. Confusing their vision and concentration. ”

"Is that okay?"

"If it doesn't work, it will work, I need a while to cultivate a new White Jedi. Also, unless something is seriously wrong, don't hang around on my side, your actions will reveal my whereabouts. You go somewhere else, forge a stronghold, bury a lot of detonators there, and if the enemy passes, you will detonate them directly. ”

Madara coldly gave the order.

As for whether the exploded stronghold would endanger the lives of the White Jedi, Madara didn't care at all.

These guys are consumables like tools.

Bai Jue naturally has no objections, for them, there is a Bai Jue who falls, and there are thousands of Bai Jue, life and death are not a problem at all.

"Your safety, Madara-sama?"

"After that I will go into the interior of the sacred tree and hide it. When necessary, I will fight with the help of the power of the sacred tree. ”

Although aggrieved, Madara can only think of such a way at present.

"But then your vitality ......"

"The pieces of meat between the pillars have a strong vitality and can continue to be used."

There's no way around it.

Even if it was just in case, he didn't want to sit still here.

Although the situation was not in his favor, it was not to the point of exhaustion.

As long as there are no problems on Nagato's side, he has nothing to worry about.

Next, it depends on what the other party's reaction is.

In this way, he can think of corresponding ways to deal with these people according to the reaction of the other party.

Seeing that Madara had made up his mind, Hakujue knew that no matter what he said next, it would be impossible to dissuade Madara from changing his will.

"Ah Fei, you also act together, I don't need your protection here. Your protection, for me, is exposure. ”

Ah Fei nodded.

With the help of the power of the Pillar Cells and the Divine Tree, although Madara's power will not be restored to its heyday, and its vitality will be attenuated, it will not be a problem to fight in a short period of time.

Even if it's a weak Madara, not everyone can come and tease the tiger's whiskers.

And Madara's words are right, the White Jedi are here to operate around Madara, just to expose Madara's location, and beyond that, they can't do anything.

The opponent's stealth and concealment abilities are obviously higher than those of Bai Jue.

"What's going to happen next, unknown guy......"

Madara's eyes looked into the depths of darkness and sat on a wooden chair and muttered.

◎

It was a week before I returned to the land of ghosts.

In order to master the mysterious-level medical ninjutsu of immortal art and life regeneration, it took Shiraishi a lot of time.

Again and again, let the shadow dancer's shadow blade seriously injure himself, and then continue to experiment with the healing power of this medical ninjutsu.

Although he can't do it, Shiraishi believes that if he continues to be proficient, it will only be a matter of time before he performs this medical ninjutsu.

The only problem is that to perform this ninjutsu, it takes a lot of immortal chakra.

After all these years of growth, there is no need to worry about natural energy, you just need to absorb it casually, and you can absorb the inexhaustible natural energy from nature.

And the amount of chakra has always been a shortcoming of Shiraishi.

It's just that it just reached the average level of the upper ninja chakra, maybe a little lower.

His ninjutsu is basically used at critical moments, and the ninjutsu he uses is basically an auxiliary ninjutsu with low consumption and high practicality.

In addition, if you continue to create clones, you don't need to improve your strength, you just need to improve the ability of the clones, and then feed back to yourself.

Even if you fuse with the Shadow Dancer, you can borrow chakra from the Shadow Dancer, and you will not be able to perform the medical ninjutsu of Senjutsu Life Regeneration many times.

In the case of a near-death injured person, about three to four uses is the limit.

Therefore, how to improve the chakra and fuse it with natural energy to create more immortal chakra is the next problem that Shiraishi has to solve.

"Live slugs, do you know how you can greatly increase the amount of chakra in a ninja?"

As a living slug that witnesses the existence of history, it must know many secrets that Shiraishi does not know in the ninja world.

For example, the treasures and methods of enhancing chakras and so on.

Coming to the land of ghosts with Shiraishi was a small clone of the living slugs, about the size of an ordinary house cat, lying limply on Shiraishi's shoulders.

Hearing Shiraishi's inquiry, the live slug replied, "Chakra's refinement is related to the individual's physical fitness, as well as innate qualifications. Blood Inheritance Limit Ninjas, because they have excellent bloodlines, so in terms of chakra, Blood Inheritance Limit Ninjas are generally much higher than ordinary ninjas. Lord Shiraishi is not a ninja who holds the Blood Inheritance Limit, so he can only start with foreign objects. ”

"Foreign?"

"For example, the existence of tailed beasts and the like has become a human pillar force. As far as I know, if the Tailed Beast can be honest with the humans who live there, then it will become a perfect human pillar force, and the humans can control the Chakra of the Tailed Beast level at will. ”

"The Tailed Beast is an important force held by the five major powers to deter other countries, and it is very troublesome to move those existences."

It's not that it can't be done, but the follow-up processing is troublesome.

The ninja villages of the five major countries are too powerful, and no matter how much they fight with each other, it is also their internal matter, and they will never allow outsiders to intervene in their ranks of dividing interests.

With the technological level of the present era, the available resources can only be so little, and the five major countries naturally need the best, followed by the neutral countries, and the small countries that get the worst.

In particular, small countries such as the country of grass and the country of rain, which are sandwiched between large countries, are in a even more worrying situation.

"It's not that the five great powers have tailed beasts, at the time of the first Five Shadows Conference, a tailed beast was distributed among the Thousand Hands Pillar to Taki's Hidden Village, the country of Taki, which does not belong to the ranks of the five great powers."

"The village hidden by the waterfall? I have indeed heard of it, because of the remote geographical environment, it is rarely affected by the ninja wars of the five major countries, and the domestic situation is relatively stable. ”

It is also one of the best ninja villages under the five major countries, and its strength cannot be underestimated.

"Yes. In addition to tailed beasts, this ninja village also has something called Hero's Water, which can greatly increase the chakra when ninjas take it. ”

"And this kind of magical prop."

Shiraishi pondered.

Takikure Village has tailed beasts, he knows about them, but the water of heroes, he has heard of it for the first time.

"I don't recommend this to Lord Shiraishi. The Hero's Water is indeed very powerful, but it will devour the user's life force, and although the amplification ability is strong, the side effects are also extremely obvious. ”

The words of the live slug made Shiraishi's enthusiasm for the Hero's Water gradually diminish.

But the interest is still there, and it's perfectly feasible to find an opportunity to get in touch with the ninjas in Takikure Village, and exchange something of comparable value for some Hero Water to come back and study.

"Besides, is there a way to increase the chakra?"

"The power of Loulan's dragon veins."

"Loulan? I remember that place was in the territory of the Land of Wind, a place within a country, but I heard that it seems to have declined. ”

Shiraishi fell into deep thought.

"Yes. The power of Loulan's dragon veins is actually the veins of the earth, which is a special chakra formed by the convergence of the earth's natural energy. With Lord Shiraishi's understanding of natural energy, it shouldn't be difficult to tame the special chakra of the dragon vein. ”

The live slug said.

"What about the sum of energy?"

"Although the power of the dragon vein has dried up a lot compared to the ancient times, it should be easy to reach the Tailed Beast level."

The live slugs continue to provide information to Shiraishi.

Bai Shi nodded, the chakra of the tailed beast weight is enough for him to squander all kinds of immortal arts, and many times, it will not lead to a disadvantage in the battle because of the lack of chakra.

And most importantly, the Sand Hidden Village of the Land of the Wind is now fighting Konoha and the defense level of the country will increase, but the overall strength of the Land of Wind will decrease.

At this time, it is indeed a good time to sneak into the Land of Wind to take away the power of the dragon vein.

After all, the chakra of the tailed beast level, Baishi still attaches great importance to it.

With a chakra of this magnitude, the combat power of the clone will also rise to a higher level.

Therefore, Bai Shi immediately made a decision to go to the country of Loulan to find the power of the dragon vein mentioned in the mouth of the living slug and use it.

Shiraishi walked to the window and was about to breathe a sigh of relief, when he suddenly saw the scene outside the window and was stunned for a moment.

"What's wrong, Lord Shiraishi?"

Seeing that Baishi was stunned in place, the live slug asked suspiciously.

It looked in the direction Shiraishi was looking at, and found nothing strange.

Just then, an intelligence worker wearing a black trench coat with an aster flower mark embroidered on the back knocked on the door and entered.

"Lord Shiraishi, this is the latest information compiled by the intelligence department, please take a look."

When he put down the materials and was about to leave, Shiraishi immediately asked the staff member: "What happened in the past few days since I left, I remember that there is a mountain in that direction, why is the mountain suddenly gone now?" ”

Shiraishi pointed to a mountain range that could be seen outside the window, and the top of one of the mountains disappeared as if a piece had been ripped away.

Shiraishi remembers very clearly, before he left, the top of this mountain was still alive, why did he go out and suddenly disappear?

He probably didn't ask the construction team to start work there.

The staff stiffened for a moment, and said, "This ...... It's better for Lord Shiraishi to ask those two adults. ”

I'm just a messenger, and I don't want to get involved in such a dangerous incident. The staff was nervous.

It's too dangerous to intervene in the family affairs of these adults at will.

After saying that, the staff quickly escaped from the office, not daring to stay here for another second.

“……”

Are you so scary? Shiraishi was puzzled.

But what's the matter with Ruri and Ayane?

Shiraishi walked over to his desk, picked up all kinds of information handed over by the staff, and began to read it.

One of the pieces of information caught Shiraishi's attention.

"The white guy who knows how to escape?"

Shiraishi muttered.

The source of this information was identified by General Tu and his own water clone, the Water Dragon God.

Chasing the lair of those white creatures, he came across a whirlpool-faced white creature that would use a powerful wooden escape.

It details the course of the battle, as well as the power and abilities of the enemy.

Eventually, it was concluded that the Swirlface creatures were very dangerous enemies.

Regular squad encounters are mainly based on escaping, and cannot be fought.

Attached at the end are pictures of the swirl face, with the rest of the white creatures.

"Lord Shiraishi, these guys are ......"

The live slug clinged to Shiraishi's shoulder, and naturally saw this information, and its tone was full of surprise after seeing the picture of the swirl face and the white creature.

"It's a member of a mysterious force that I care about, and this force is quite concerned about Konoha and Uchiha, and I want to find out what their purpose is. Why, live slugs, do you know these strange creatures? ”

Shiraishi asked.

"It's not a question of knowing or not knowing, Lord Shiraishi, is this information really true?"

The live slug asked.

The caution revealed in his tone made Bai Shi slightly stunned.

After knowing each other for so many days, he felt the seriousness of the live slug for the first time.

"True, there are still a few corpse samples in my lab."

Shiraishi told the live slug the answer accurately.

"I didn't expect there to be any remnants of this era."

"This era?"

Listen to the meaning of the living slug, as if this creature is not a product of this era.

"Lord Shiraishi, I told you about the Sacred Tree before."

"Ah, you told me that the sacred tree used to absorb the natural energy of the natural world and transform it into the secret of chakra."

Shiraishi nodded.

"These white creatures are human beings in ancient times."

"Humans?"

Shiraishi looked surprised.

This white creature, he has dissected it many times, and he has mastered the internal physiological system, not to mention humans, among the known species in the ninja world today, there is no matching existence at all.

"This white creature is collectively known as the White Absolute Being, and it is a living soldier created by the Divine Tree using ancient humans. After a series of twists and turns, these guys gradually disappeared, and I thought they had all been wiped out, but I didn't expect them to appear in this era. ”

A living soldier forged by the Divine Tree? Shiraishi was surprised.

I always feel that the secrets of the ancient times are more exciting than I imagined.

"The white creatures I captured before are all weak. This time, this whirlpool-faced guy can easily suppress the immortal form of my two clones with the power of one person, and it seems that there is also a very powerful individual here. ”

"The power of the Ten Tails of the Divine Tree is unpredictable, that is the origin of the ninja chakra."

The live slug said solemnly.

"So, live slugs, what do you think will be the reason why these living soldiers called Bai Jue have awakened in this era?"

Shiraishi wanted to know the connection.

"I don't know very well, it was the Six Dao Immortals who suppressed the Divine Tree, and I didn't participate in that battle. The one from Miaomu Mountain may know a little bit, it has a life-and-death friendship with the Six Dao Immortals. But I don't recommend that Lord Shiraishi go to Mt. Myoki to find answers now. ”

Shiraishi nodded slightly.

Judging from Miaomu Mountain's series of behaviors in support of Konoha, as well as the admonition of the witch Maitreya, he and this place seem to be born to be in conflict.

I can get the support of the live scorpion because the live slug sees everything in the world indifferently.

Earthly power, wealth, power, nothing appeals to it.

On the contrary, Myoki Mountain, which is also a holy place, has been interfering excessively in the human world, and has unfathomable prophetic powers.

The fate of mankind is determined by the high.

This kind of detached attitude of using the established fate to interfere with the law of the development of all things made Baishi feel extremely unhappy in his heart, and he couldn't help but have an urge to crush it.

"Now that things have surfaced, the next thing we need to do is just follow the vine."

"Lord Shiraishi, it's better to be careful. It is impossible for Bai to escape by himself, there must be a sorcerer behind the scenes, and once the Divine Tree reawakens, the world is likely to perish. Until then, the people behind the scenes will definitely collect the tail ...... first."

It's not that the live slug doesn't believe in Shiraishi's abilities, but the existence of the Divine Tree is too dangerous, so it is necessary to remind it so that it doesn't mean the enemy carelessly.

Just as the live slug reminded Shiraishi, the office door was suddenly opened.

There was no knocking on the door.

The two men pushed the door open and went inside.

"Lord Shiraishi, I'm seriously reminding you, please don't act like you don't care. If you don't do it, the world will be in chaos. ”

The live slug saw that Baishi didn't listen to it at all, and his tone became helpless.

“……”

It's not that Shiraishi isn't unaware of the seriousness of what the live slug is talking about.

Instead, he saw Ruri with a cold face and Ayane with a smirk on her face, and when the two of them came in, Shiraishi realized the tension and depression of the atmosphere.

The temperature of the air drops instantly.

It's like winter at the end of January, and it's bitterly cold.

I don't know if the world will be in chaos, before this, if he doesn't handle his family affairs well, he may be crushed by these two people today.

What happened to these two people in the days he left?

Thinking of the strange disappearance of a mountain just now, and the staff didn't dare to explain it, Bai Shi suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart.

The disappearance of that mountain can't be done by the two of them, right?
