Chapter 71 Myth and Origin (fifth update, please vote for me)
Naruto and Xiang Rin stayed in "Uzushio Village" for more than two months before they painted all the "inscriptions" in the village. Print it.
During this period, I received some letters from Jiraiya one after another.
I hope he can return to the Land of Fire.
There is also a request for him to attend the ceremony of Kakashi Hatake's succession as the "Fifth Hokage".
There are also some miscellaneous contents.
Most of Naruto refused.
Only when Kakashi succeeded the Fifth Hokage, Naruto channeled a shadow clone and went over to congratulate Kakashi. But the main body still stays in the Kingdom of Whirlpool, studying these inscriptions.
Most of the valuable things have been taken away by other ninja villages.
What remains here are mostly "myths" and "history".
It is recorded on the inscription.
The "Uzumaki Clan" are the descendants of the "Six Paths Sage". They experienced some things during the Warring States Period, and were eventually led by the clan leader "Uzumaki Ashina" to establish a Ninja Village on this island, and together with the first Hokage Senju Hashirama Sign a friendship contract and become a part of Konoha.
The record of "Death" on the inscription is independent of the history of the Uzumaki clan.
It is a very ancient god. During the Warring States Period, it was found by the Uzumaki clan and signed a contract. It can be summoned by casting spells to harvest the souls of the enemy. Of course, the price for doing so is The user's soul must be used as a sacrifice.
It's really old.
The record of the inscription does not explain what period of time it was a deity, but there is a passage that clearly states that it is older than the "Six Paths Immortal".
Stare at this line of text.
Naruto frowned: "Six Paths Sage. I seem to have heard of his legend."
"He is the first user of chakra."
" He is also the one who brought chakra to this world.”
Xianglin nodded.
The same is true of the myth of the "Six Paths Immortal" she had heard of.
"If you look at this myth." Naruto continued, "It should be after the Sage of Six Paths that everything belonging to Chakra will exist."
"Then the God of Death "The existence"
"should not be longer than the Six Paths Sage"
Is the record of the Uzumaki clan wrong?
But the inscription clearly states that the Six Paths Immortal is the ancestor of the Uzumaki clan.
It doesn’t make sense, there will be mistakes in matters related to ancestors.
What a pity.
The Kingdom of Whirlpool perished twenty years ago.
Otherwise, if you ask the elders in the clan, you can directly understand the clearer and more certain content.
“The written materials here do not record any knowledge related to the technique of sealing away ghosts.” Xianglin flipped through the rubbings and eliminated all the relatively insignificant content. Out, "The only thing that might be useful is this message."
She pointed to a line of text.
"The sacrifices offered to the God of Death will be sucked and stored in his stomach, instead of going to the Pure Land after death like normal souls."
This short line of text contains a huge amount of information.
"Pure Land." Naruto read these two words again.
Is this the name of the place where the souls of the dead live in this world?
It seems
The ninjas are not as ignorant of souls as they thought.
They have known about this for a long time, but this should be quite niche knowledge, and they have never heard of it before.
And more importantly.
The meaning of this sentence.
The soul that has used this technique will be stored in the belly of that evil spirit.
In this way, even if I find the "Pure Land", I may not be able to find the souls of my parents.
They were sealed in the belly of Death.
"Where should we go next?" Xianglin organized these scrolls, arranged them one by one according to their importance, made labels, and sealed them one by one.
Naruto thought for a while: "Let's first find out what kind of things these gods are?"
"After figuring out what they are, then go find the one called the God of Death. "
Xiang Rin paused: "Speaking of which, shrines dedicated to gods are not uncommon."
"I saw them when I was in the Country of Grass. After some.”
"It seems that the Land of Fire also has many shrines and temples dedicated to gods?"
Naruto nodded.
Speaking of this, he remembered that when he was performing a "D" level mission in Konoha, he had met some "miko" and "monks" who came to Konoha from the capital of Fire Country. .
Their status is much higher than that of ninjas.
Be able to communicate with those "nobles" and "rich businessmen" on equal terms, or even in high positions.
"Then let's go to those places first." Naruto finalized the itinerary.
They packed their things and left the Kingdom of Whirlpool.
He took a look at the small village he had saved before.
Their lives have not improved much yet.
Although the little boy has not refined chakra yet, his body has become stronger visibly.
When Naruto and Xiang Rin were on their way.
Tian Country, Yinyin Village.
In a secret underground base.
Kabuto Yakushi stood in front of a white-haired boy.
"Didn't you bring Sasuke back?" The white-haired boy saw that there was no one around him, except for one person who came back. His tone was calm, "You are so incompetent, Kabuto."
"Don't say that to me, Kimimaro." Even though he was scolded, Yakushi Kabuto still smiled and showed no sign of anger, "Sasuke was not impressed by Orochimaru-sama's power."
"I I tried to persuade him many times."
"Even after he was injured by that man Uchiha Itachi, he even risked being discovered by Konoha and broke into the hospital." "I couldn't persuade him. "
"He seems to distrust Lord Orochimaru."
The boy known as "Kimimaro" narrowed his eyes, chakra surged, and he instantly stood in front of Kabuto, stretched out his hand to strike with a knife, and his nails extended like a sharp blade, leaving a blood line on his neck: "Don't cut it. Your incompetence is blamed on Lord Orochimaru."
Yakushi Kabuto smiled and held Kimimaro's hand: "Then forgive my incompetence."
"You need me again. Want to give it a try?"
"Konoha's security force has been very strong recently. If I try to break in again, I will have to wait for a while until they relax."
< br>Kimimaro withdrew his hand and snorted: "Lord Orochimaru can't wait that long."
He paused and looked down at his body: "I can't wait that long."
Yakushi Kabuto squinted his eyes, his glasses reflected light and was obscured by his expression: "Then now we have to call Lord Orochimaru Are you coming back? "
Kimimaro looked at him coldly and said nothing.
"Do you need my help?" Kabuto Yakushi asked proactively, "I am also an excellent medical ninja."
Kimimaro refused: "No need."
< br>
"It's enough for me to come."
He stood up and walked into a room.
Kabuto Yakushi narrowed his eyes and stared at the door, trying to remember.
That room
seems to contain experimental products that Orochimaru collected from various places.
Of course
Orochimaru's "experiments" are not as simple as "natural materials", but also include some children "picked up" from various places with special blood inheritance limits.
Is the method of summoning Orochimaru back a technique similar to the "Undead Reincarnation"?
I really want to see it.
In the house.
Kimimaro scanned these "experimental subjects" and selected one of the children with the "curse mark" planted on his body.
Take out a piece of flesh and blood cultured in the "nutritional warehouse" and paste it on the "curse seal".
Hands in the seal.
"Evil Seal"!
Chakra surged, flesh and blood twisted, and it grew into a snake head in the blink of an eye.
The python opened its bloody mouth.
A man climbed out of it.
"Kimimaro, give me a hand." The man raised his head, and it was Orochimaru.
Kimimaro stretched out his hand carefully.
This is one of Orochimaru's life-saving methods.
Every "curse seal" contains a trace of his will.
As long as the "curse seal" is released, Orochimaru will be resurrected from it.
The only drawback of this technique.
That is.
In the "Curse Seal", Orochimaru's will cannot be actively exerted, and can only wait for others to take action.
A loyal subordinate like Kimimaro.
Or something. A smart person who noticed the nature of the "curse seal".
"Lord Orochimaru, I" wait for Orochimaru to land and Kimimaro opens his mouth to report the information.
Orochimaru shook his head: "I heard everything in your curse seal."
"No need to say any more."
"It's a pity that Sasuke was not captured."
"I can't wait any longer."
Kimimaro responded.
He helped Orochimaru out.
"Lord Orochimaru." Kabuto Yakushi immediately greeted him.
Orochimaru stuck out his tongue, licked his lips, and said in a frivolous tone: "Kabuto, your performance really surprised me. I thought you wouldn't be such a loyal person."
"I'm really touched."
Yakushi Kabuto's face was filled with a fake smile: "My loyalty to Orochimaru-sama is no weaker than Kimimaro-sama."
Orochimaru sneered: "Don't say this That’s it, prepare a new body for me.”
“This one is no longer usable.”
There is a considerable amount of "body" suitable for reincarnation stored in this base.
One day later.
Orochimaru, who had transformed his body, was sitting in a wheelchair and was pushed in front of the mirror.
His face was covered with bandages, and his expression could not be clearly seen, but his eyes were full of hatred and hatred: "The Third Hokage. What a good trick."
After reincarnation, He still couldn't use his hands.
"Seal all zombies".
This technique, which Sarutobi Hiruzen had never heard of before he used it, seals the souls of his hands and imprints them on his souls. Curse", changing the body cannot break it.
So, if you want to fully recover, you must find a way to break that technique and release the soul of your hands.
Kabuto Yakushi stood behind him, his face calm, lowering his presence like air.
"Lord Orochimaru." Kimimaro opened the door and walked in.
Orochimaru turned around and glanced at him: "You should be resting at this time."
"My body is running out of time." Kimimaro looked calm, "Kabuto did it for me Even if you don't do anything, you only have a few months to live."
"Rather than die in bed"
"I want to do more for Lord Orochimaru. "
"Please allow me to go out to Konoha to capture Uchiha Sasuke for you."
