Chapter 42 Zero-Tail Nothingness (Monthly Vote Requested!!)

Chapter 42 Zero Tail·Nothingness (Monthly Ticket Request!!)

In the forest on the seaside border of the Kingdom of Hot Springs.

All you can see are lush and green trees.

But what is revealed on the surface are many human-faced statues on pedestals.

This is the so-called "Kingdom of the Sky", and it is also the location of the so-called Sky Ninja Village, an underground fortress mainly made of stone.

And on the stone throne in the main control room of the fortress, a sturdy man sat there.

He looked to be about thirty years old, with a head of thick black hair, and looked extremely young and arrogant.

Standing in front of him was a ninja wearing a flight suit and a sky ninja forehead protector.

After listening to the work report of the air ninja, the middle-aged man sitting on the stone throne couldn't help but sigh with disappointment on his face: "Still can't find the 'energy' that can stably provide energy to the 'Zero Tail'?"

"I'm very sorry, Lord Shennong, because the chakra required by the 'Zero Tail' is too huge, I'm afraid only the legendary tailed beast can provide the 'Zero Tail' with stable and continuous energy."

Facing the apology of the air ninja leader, Shennong just waved his hand, frowned and lowered his head in thought.

He is proficient in biomedical technology and is not surprised by this situation.

As the ultimate weapon of the air ninja village, the destructive power of "Zero Tail·Nothingness" is no weaker than those real tailed beasts.

As long as the charging of the "Zero Tail" can be completed, the foundation accumulated by the big country is just like this.

Now the outbreak of the Second Ninja World War is imminent. He originally planned to use the power of the Zero Tail to directly attack Konoha from the air when Konoha was restrained by the big country.

However, the current situation is a bit of a dilemma.

Although he doesn't want to give up this excellent opportunity, the technology of "Zero Tail" is not perfect yet.

Once the energy of "Zero Tail" is exhausted, their Sky Ninja Village will be half destroyed.

"If that's the case, then there's nothing we can do."

After thinking for a while, Shennong was still unwilling to give up. He looked up at the Sky Ninja in front of him, and said with a cold tone: "The negative spirit and life emitted by humans can also provide energy for Zero Tail."

"If that's the case, let's kidnap people from the small country near the Kingdom of Soup. Whether it's a few hundred people or a few thousand people, we must let the "Zero Tail" complete the charging as soon as possible!"

"..."

Hearing this, the Sky Ninja leader was stunned, and a hint of hesitation flashed in his eyes.

At present, more than a thousand humans have been imprisoned in the fortress. These humans are ordinary people who were secretly transported to the fortress from outside. They are backup "living sacrifices" for the energy of Zero Tail.

It's enough to use it as a "backup", but if you want to complete the charging of Zero Tail with ordinary people alone, these thousand people are not enough, and more humans are needed to provide chakra and vitality.

The number of people who need to be sacrificed is probably countless.

"Bird, let me ask you a question."

Looking at the somewhat reluctant Sky Ninja leader in front of him, Shennong tapped the stone chair lightly and asked calmly: "In this world, humans without sharp teeth and claws are very fragile, but why has such a world become a human thing?"

"..."The Sky Ninja leader came back to his senses, bowed his head respectfully and replied, "Forgive my ignorance, is it because humans can use tools and chakra?"

"No, no, no!" Shennong shook his head, grinned, and whispered, "This is because humans are the cruelest of all creatures!"

"Just to seek a slightly more advantageous position than other species, humans gathered together to achieve today's prosperity."

"This world is like this, and so are the great powers!"

"We, too!"

————————

"...Sky Country?"

Uchiha Madara's memories were interrupted, and he glanced at Bai Zetsu with some dissatisfaction, and said coldly: "Where did this come from again A clown who just popped up?"

"Ah! Master Madara, I don't know if this is important, but I think I should tell you."

White Zetsu shivered when he was stared at, and quickly threw away the blame before continuing to explain: "When I was remotely investigating the movements of the Whirlpool Village in the Whirlpool Country, I found that an organization claiming to be the Sky Ninja Village of the Sky Country appeared near the border of the Soup Country."

"Actually, I feel they are quite weak, but they have many strange inventions, such as ninja tools that can launch projectiles, flying ninja tools driven by wind escape chakra, and their base is still a flying fortress hidden underground..."

"According to our investigation, their leader is called Shennong. On the surface, he is a doctor with excellent medical skills, but in fact he is a guy who is proficient in medical ninjutsu. They are preparing a lot of supplies on the black market..."

"If I guess correctly, their target should be Konoha!"

White Zetsu narrated the intelligence he had found to Uchiha Madara in full.

However, Madara showed no interest in this and sneered, "Another idiot with no strength and only ambition."

White Zetsu tilted his head, not quite understanding why Lord Madara made such a judgment, but he did not dare to refute.

After all, he felt that the ninja tools of those air ninjas were quite troublesome, flying around in the sky like a troublesome fly.

"...boring."

Madara shook his head indifferently, without the idea of ​​explaining to White Zetsu.

This ninja world has never lacked the existence of ambitious people. This so-called country of the sky and Shennong are not the first ambitious people who have tried to challenge the five major countries.

This situation can be said to have lasted for thousands of years, until he and Hashirama relied on their absolute strength to completely end the war between families in the Warring States Period.

The founding of Konoha created the era of one country and one village, and the situation in the shinobi world was in a brief period of peace.

——Madara used to think so, and he used to be proud of Konoha.

However, since he faked his death and escaped from the battle in the Valley of the End, he finally saw the reality of this world clearly.

See clearly this sad world full of hatred, full of violence and desire, full of pain.

The law-abiding behavior shown by all the forces at that time was not restricted by the agreement reached at the Five Kage Talks that year, but only by his and Hashirama's prestige and strength.

As he and Hashirama died "successively", Senju Tobirama, that loser, no longer had the power to maintain peace on his own.

Those guys naturally showed their ugly faces and unscrupulously tore up the so-called agreement and the extremely fragile peace.

The scale of the first ninja war has even exceeded Madara's expectations.

It is no longer a petty family dispute, but has become a real national war.

The one-country-one-village system is useless. As long as human beings still have desires, real peace will not exist.

Therefore, when Madara heard the news about the Kingdom of Kong from Bai Jue's mouth, he was not surprised at all. Instead, he thought that it was reasonable for this kind of thing to happen and it was not worth making a fuss about.

Because of this, he felt even more resentful and resentful towards Hashirama's betrayal.

"Obviously the original intention of establishing Konoha was to protect our companions and family!"

"If my tribe can follow me, where is it not 'Uchiha'? If we are still together, where is it not 'Konoha'?!"

"Now all this is enough to prove..."

"Hashirama, I am right, you are wrong."

A trace of sadness flashed in Uchiha Madara's eyes, and he whispered: "The one-country-one-village system we established back then is just repeating the tragedy of the Warring States Period..."

The three magatama in his eyes gradually dissipated, and the black pupils became cloudy and scattered. At this time, he looked like an old man, an old man reminiscing about the past and old friends.

As long as humans are alive, struggle is inevitable.

There will be hatred and pain.

This kind of curse cannot be broken by humans at all.

"Unlike you who are content with the status quo, I am on the road to seeking peace."

Madara slowly closed his eyes and whispered: "So, I will definitely complete the Eye of the Moon plan."

No matter what the price of peace may be, everyone will no longer experience any pain and sorrow in the infinite moon reading.
