Chapter 414 Lurker

Night is approaching.

The lights of Konoha Hospital were bright, and countless medical ninjas and nurses were running up and down the stairs.

"The most serious injury of Senju Naomasa is the three lacerations on his chest. It has been treated by Slug-sama and he is fine!"

"Then come here quickly! Uchiha and sama's spleen was damaged and only received simple treatment!"

"Bandages are needed here..."

"Disinfectant alcohol is needed here!"

"What happened? Why are so many ninjas injured and unconscious?!"

Amidst all kinds of noisy and chaotic sounds, on the roof of the hospital, a thin Anbu with a knife on his right shoulder and a cat-faced Anbu mask was half-crouching in a dark corner, vigilantly observing the surroundings.

Suddenly, another Anbu appeared beside him in an instant, whispered a few words, and the cat-faced Anbu nodded slightly, flashed, and landed on a telephone pole in the distance, with three magatama in his eyes spinning, and the color was close to the nine moons gradually appearing in the sky.

Across a street, in a residential building.

A middle-aged man dressed as an ordinary civilian sat at the table, writing a letter. His slightly rapid breathing showed his nervous mood.

In the letter, every word recorded what had happened in Konoha since this evening, stating that Uchiha Fugaku, Hyuga Hiashi, Sarutobi Hiruzen and others had all been admitted to Konoha Hospital...

Just as he finished writing, the window suddenly opened from the outside. The middle-aged man was horrified and was about to resist, but was knocked unconscious by a knife from the Anbu!

The Anbu picked up the letter to check, and the door was also knocked open, and several other Anbu rushed in.

"Captain Itachi!"

"He's a spy from the Sand Village." Uchiha Itachi nodded: "Send him to the Anbu prison first."

"Yes!"

Two Anbu carried the middle-aged man away, and the Anbu who had just reported to Itachi came closer and said: "The other guys we have been eyeing for a long time have not made any moves yet, but... in this situation, should we detain them temporarily first?"

"We can't be sure if they are really spies." Uchiha Itachi said: "Catching the wrong one will cause more problems, and... what happened tonight can't be hidden from other ninja villages after all."

"I understand!" The Anbu lowered his head and whispered: "I don't know what happened. It's like a ninja war. Even Shisui and the clan leader were injured. I don't know if the enemy has been caught..."

'Caught? Uchiha Itachi was silent, raised his hand to signal the team members to continue to disperse and guard.

...

"The chakra of another place suddenly became active, father." In a room near the Hokage Building, the Nine-Tails lying on the table reported to Ji Xing with a nonchalant expression.

Ji Xing, who was focusing on a scroll, raised his head and praised: "The fourth department, there are many spies. Well done, Kurama."

"It's a small matter." Kyuubi turned his head away proudly: "I was careless during the fight. I can do this kind of small matter of perception casually."

"Well, come on." Ji Xing encouraged, and continued to lower his head to read the scroll with forbidden techniques.

That is, the seal book of Konoha.

When he was sent here by Tsunade in person, he asked Tsunade for Konoha's ninjutsu secret technique storage book. Not long after, even this book that only recorded forbidden techniques was sent here.

After finding one of the techniques, Ji Xing studied it for a while, stood up and made seals with both hands.

"Ninjutsu-Shiki Fuujin!"

A strange breath spread, and the god of death with a dagger in his mouth quickly appeared behind Ji Xing, and then the god of death quickly took the dagger in his hand, bowed slightly to Ji Xing, and greeted him.

A hoarse spiritual voice echoed in Ji Xing's mind: "Ishiba Misaki Daimyo."

The Nine-Tailed Fox on the table next to him saw this guy who made him feel embarrassed, and grinned slightly. Ji Xing reached out and rubbed his head to comfort him.

"Death God, after a thousand years, the first god I saw after returning was you. This is also fate. What about other gods? How many are I familiar with?"

"Not many." Death God replied: "Many gods have stopped offering sacrifices and disappeared. Even the deer in Nara has fallen into a deep sleep."

"Really?" That is a god who can accelerate the growth of herbs and even food. Back then, Ji Xing designated it as the true god of the Star Country. It seems that the gods did not have a good life during the thousand years of war.

"You are living a comfortable life. How many souls have you harvested?" Ji Xing looked up and asked.

The god of death bowed his head, was silent for a while, and then said: "There are only a few hundred."

"Okay, don't be nervous." Ji Xing smiled and said: "I'm not looking for you to settle accounts. You didn't immediately seize the souls of my descendants who used your power, but waited until they died before collecting them. There will be a lot of losses in the middle, but it's okay.

I have something else to ask you. If the soul is not collected by you, where will it go?"

"There is a naturally formed "Pure Land" in this world. If you die normally, the soul will go there."

"Pure Land? Was it opened up by Hagoromo?"

The god of death paused: "It was indeed formed in the past thousand years... Maybe there are factors that affect the powerful soul of Otsutsuki Hagoromo, but it doesn't count as opening up."

"Hmm..." Ji Xing was thoughtful, because he was killed thousands of times when sparring with Kaguya, he was very sure that there was no Pure Land at that time, otherwise, just like in the Demon Slayer World, he should have directly entered the Pure Land after death, and then jumped back and forth.

Pure Land... Chakra... Wedge...

"Okay, go back, I'm fine."

The god of death bowed his head again and greeted, and disappeared.

Ji Xing tapped Kyuubi's head lightly with his fingers, picked up the Sealed Book and continued reading, as if waiting for something to come.

…

Similar time.

Thousands of kilometers away from Konoha.

The moonlight could not shine into the cave, and under the dim light, two figures sitting opposite each other were looming.

One of them said jokingly: "It turns out that Kaguya Otsutsuki still left such a trick. Putting hope on him is really a powerless choice."

The other one said in a low voice: "Is it really Ishiba Mitsuha? The one from a thousand years ago?"

"Why, don't you believe me?"

"No, I'm just... too excited. After a thousand years, I thought our hatred could only be vented on Kaguya Otsutsuki's descendants! I didn't expect that there would be a chance to repay that 'adult' in person!"

"Oh... do you think you have a chance?"

The figure opposite shook slightly, was silent for a moment, stood up, and knelt on one knee again: "Please help me, sir!"

"Hehe..." The sitting figure laughed hoarsely and satisfied, but it only lasted for a few seconds, and then stopped abruptly, with a hint of surprise and surprise in his eyes.

"What's wrong, Lord Otsutsuki Yame?"

"No, it's okay." The figure stood up and walked out of the cave. His white body appeared under the bright moonlight. He said in surprise: "My existence was actually discovered. Ishiba Mitsuha... No wonder he can make Kaguya betray the Otsutsuki family name. Compared with other ants, he is indeed different."

After a while, in Konoha Village, Black Zetsu, who appeared from the ground in front of Ji Xing, lowered his head, and his black face was full of shame for doing something wrong.

"Father."

Ji Xing smiled: "It seems that my guess is correct, and I am very lucky to run into him at once?"

Black Zetsu said ashamedly: "Yes...Father is very wise and powerful, but I have caused trouble for you...There are indeed a few White Zetsu, and I can't contact them for a while. It's very sudden and strange."

...

Time goes back to a few hours ago.

Before entering Konoha Village, Black Zetsu asked, "Won't I go with you, Father?"

"No need, your appearance is too recognizable, and you have more important tasks to do. First, observe and support me in the dark, and second, confirm whether there is any sudden loss of contact with White Zetsu."

"...White Zetsu?"

"Kaguya can keep you before being exiled, and Hamura can tell you how to find me and the fact that I am not dead before he dies, so our enemy, Otsutsuki Yame, who is stronger than Kaguya, can't do anything before being sealed?"

Ji Xing patted Black Zetsu's shoulder: "Just think of it as my worry, But don't underestimate any enemy, a moment of carelessness may bring disaster. If Otsutsuki Yamei left a backup plan, then those who can survive from a thousand years ago are the focus.

White Zetsu, gods, white snakes and slugs all need to be checked. I will take care of the latter, and I will leave the White Zetsu to you. I remember you said before that those White Zetsu were caused by Kaguya using infinite moon reading to protect everyone in the ninja world, so this technique was released under the eyes of Otsutsuki Yamei, right? "

"... I understand, father!"

...

Understanding is understanding, but if there is a real discovery, Black Zetsu almost wants to hit his head against the Nine-Tails.

As a son and a brother, shame!

There are some problems among the White Zetsu, which means that its actions in the past thousand years have been monitored by the enemy. Fortunately, the father has returned and discovered it. Otherwise, when he really succeeds and liberates his mother excitedly, he will be ripped out from behind?

This is the world of Naruto. Ji Xing was surprised, but not surprised. He shook his head and said, "It's okay. A thousand years have passed. It proves that the opponent's strength is very ordinary. If you catch him, you can destroy him. Hiding in the dark is dangerous, but since I found him, you don't have to worry too much."

Ji Xing tapped Kyuubi's forehead a few more times and thought about it. If possible, he also hopes to act in secret, wait until he solves Yitong first, or wait until he obtains the combat power of the six paths, and then show up, which will be the safest.

Unfortunately, the conditions do not allow it. The way he appeared in the Rain Village means that he can't hide it for too long even if he wants to.

So now... move quickly.

Black Zetsu looked at Ji Xing's expression, and the guilt and worry in his heart gradually dissipated, revealing a yearning look. He was powerful and wise. With his father here, everything is not a problem!

Kyuubi, who was enjoying Ji Xing's touch, saw Black Zetsu's face and rolled his eyes in disdain.

When Kakashi knocked on the door and pushed it open, he saw this scene... Who is this dark guy?

After a pause, he said: "Ancestor, all the clan leaders and Konoha Village leaders have gathered in the Hokage Building. Do you want to go now?"

Ji Xing nodded and stood up: "Let's go."

3k, there is one chapter before 12 o'clock.
