Chapter 222 The Dust-covered Truth (Two in One) Before the actual battle with the monster, Shiba Qinghe can be said to have given this big boss enough respect. He brought out half of the six battalions of the Akatsuki organization, a total of more than two hundred ninjas. Compared with the mere few squads of Konoha's blocking force in the original movie, Shiba Kiyokawa gave enough face to the monsters. Including when the shrine maiden kept emphasizing the severity of the disaster, due to insufficient intelligence, Shiba Kiyokawa did not refute it once, and even cautiously asked Nagato to send Pain to scout ahead. However, in the end, when the huge crisis that the shrine maiden had mentioned, which was enough to overthrow the entire ninja world, actually appeared before their eyes, Shiba Kiyokawa could only say that his previous respect was somewhat in vain. The rescued witch was completely stunned at this time. "you……" She wanted to say, "Be careful." But watching Nagato repeatedly smash the undead, tentacles, and all kinds of messy monsters to the ground with the instantaneous Shinra Tensei; Watch as Shiba Kiyokawa's blade easily cuts off the possessed person's limbs, turning him into a human stick.
The witch couldn't say the rest of the words. The monster, who was forced into a corner, roared in a hoarse voice. "Why won't you accept me? We're supposed to be one!!" The witch subconsciously retorted, "No! Never! Your power is too strong, you should be..." But halfway through her speech she suddenly couldn't continue. The monsters in front let out a series of sharp explosions. Although I didn't quite understand what he said, I thought it was probably very dirty. The power is too strong? You look at my ravaged and broken body and say it again? ! At this time, Nagato was already preparing to end this mission objective. "Let me do it. I just want to test the sealing technique I've been practicing recently." The sealing technique that Nagato was talking about was Chibaku Tensei. He had just mastered this technique not long ago and was planning to find an opportunity to practice it in actual combat. As a result, at this moment, something strange happened! A ball of black gas emerged from the possessed man in front of him, and then quickly rushed into Shiba Kiyokawa's body. At that moment, the miko who was protected by the three members of the Akatsuki organization screamed in panic. "No! Damn it! He's possessed by a demon, quickly control him! Otherwise--" But before she could finish her words, Xiaonan stopped her in a sharp tone, "Shut up!" Nagato also fell from the sky at this time and said comfortingly: "Don't worry, Qinghe should have his own plans." The miko was still shouting, "What are you still hesitating about? If you don't stop the monster, the entire ninja world will be destroyed!" But Nagato just stopped her with a cold look, "We trust our leader more than your unreliable prophecy."
At the same time, in a desolate spiritual space, a misty monster was confronting Shiba Kiyokawa. However, no fierce fighting broke out between the two sides. On the contrary, the atmosphere was strangely harmonious. Wuliang was the first to speak: "You are not afraid at all? I can't sense any fear in your heart. Why?" Shiba Kiyokawa shrugged with a smile. Because his sealing technique had been ready for a long time; because even now in this spiritual world he still held the initiative; and also because just at that moment, he had the ability to avoid the invasion of the monsters, but Kagura's mind's perception fed back a piece of information that made him curious: the monsters rushing towards him had no ill intentions at that moment. So he chose not to hide, allowing the monster to enter his body, and at the same time enter a cage that was completely under his control. At this time, Zhibo Qinghe did not rush to answer Wuliang's question, but instead asked: "You don't seem to have any intention of devouring me, so what do you want to do by coming to me alone like this?" The ghost suddenly laughed, and the laughter gradually grew louder. "Hahaha, how ironic! After a thousand years, a stranger is finally willing to ask me what I want to do! But the group of witches who share the same mind and heart with me only want to seal me by committing suicide!" "Eh?" Shiba Qinghe couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. "I was right to find you! You are more rational than those crazy women! Nearly a thousand years have passed, and those psychotic witches always stick to the stupid theories they have passed down from generation to generation. Every time I try to communicate with them, they just agree with me on the surface, trick me into entering their bodies, and then turn around and commit suicide to seal me again! I've had enough!" For a brief moment, Shiba Kiyokawa actually heard endless resentment and grievance in this crazy voice. So is this how thousands of years of resentment accumulated? Shiba Qinghe inexplicably felt like laughing. This truth actually has a bit of black humor. "So you can actually communicate, right? Then what exactly do you want to do by mobilizing the undead? And why did the first generation of miko seal you?" At this time, Shiba Kiyokawa's curiosity was also aroused. He also wanted to know what this somewhat templated world-destroying boss in the original movie actually wanted to do. "I want to destroy the Ninja Clan! Cut off the ninja heritage!" Wuliang said gritting his teeth. "Oh." Shiba Kiyokawa nodded calmly. Then she added, "Then I think I understand why the first miko insisted on sealing you." Then he calmly asked, "What's the reason? What's your reason for doing this?" Perhaps it was because he was too calm, this time it was Wuliang's turn to feel a little uncomfortable. "You...you actually accepted it so easily? You are also a ninja, don't you plan to stop me with all your strength?" Shiba Qinghe replied calmly, "You can decide how to deal with it after listening to your reasons. Since you feel that those priestesses cannot understand you, I can give you a chance to explain yourself now." Of course, the most important thing is the confidence brought by strength. If Shiba Kiyokawa wants to deal with the monsters, he can do it at any time. This is the core reason why he and the miko have different attitudes towards this threat. Even if the monster has entered his body now, he is proficient in sealing techniques and is still confident that he can suppress the wronged soul at any time.
All fear comes from the difference in firepower. Just as Madara and Hashirama never thought that the tailed beasts were the embodiment of disaster, Shiba Kiyokawa now did not think that the monsters that wanted to destroy the Ninja Clan were some terrible natural disaster. The next moment he even summoned a small table, a chair with an armchair and a set of tea sets in this space of consciousness that was controlled by him. Pouring himself a cup of tea, Shiba Qinghe took a sip leisurely, put down the cup, folded his legs elegantly, placed one hand on his knee, and raised the other hand to signal. "You can start explaining now, go ahead." "..." Now it's Wuliang's turn to be stuck. Aren’t you being a little disrespectful to me... The ghost’s resentment surged for a moment, then reluctantly fell silent. There's nothing you can do about it, it seems like he chose it himself. "This involves the truth of this world, which may subvert your understanding. I hope you are prepared. First of all, do you know the Sage of Six Paths? The Sage of Six Paths, who founded the Ninja Clan, is not actually from this world!" After saying this, Wuliang paused with some anticipation, as if waiting for Shiba Qinghe to express exclamation or question. This made Zhiba Qinghe feel a bit amused and helpless - he found that this group of black smoke called "Wangling" was inexplicably childish. Was it because he was unwilling to admit defeat and was determined to save some face? It was a pity that Zhiba Qinghe just wanted to speed up the conversation. "I know that the Sage of Six Paths' real name is Otsutsuki Hagoromo. He is from the Otsutsuki clan, and this clan is an outsider to the world. So what? Your purpose of wanting to destroy the Ninja Clan is simply because you cannot accept the system established by outsiders?" The black smoke in front of him shook violently. Although there was no clear evidence and no expression could be seen in the shadow, Shiba Kiyokawa had an intuitive feeling: the ghost seemed to be a little broken at this moment. The information advantage that I thought I had turned out to be completely non-existent, and I was instead crushed by the knowledge of others. This is the first time that the monsters have encountered this feeling in nearly a thousand years. "You - who are you?" It can be heard that Wuliang's voice is beginning to tremble. But Shiba Qinghe still didn't answer him, "Don't ask back, continue to explain your question, is this the only reason you want to destroy the Ninja Clan?" Shiba Kiyokawa's tone gradually turned cold. Perhaps sensing the murderous intent that permeated this space of consciousness, the shaking black smoke quickly calmed down. "Of course it's more than that!" The monster then floated higher, with black smoke spreading out, and it looked like it was a little excited. "Since you know the Otsutsuki clan, you should know that they came to this world with bad intentions, right? Their purpose of coming from afar is actually to harvest everything here! They want to plant a tree here, a giant tree!" When Wuliang was halfway through his speech, Shiba Qinghe interrupted him again. "I know that too. I've passed this part. Let's get on with the main point." "..." Once again, the Wraith felt a little stuck.
At this moment, he suddenly missed those stupid witches who were afraid of his power... "The Otsutsuki clan harbored ill will towards this world, and then it was the Six Paths Sage who stopped them. But after that, the Six Paths Sage did something stupid!" Seeing that Wuliang finally got to the point, Shiba Qinghe sat up a little straighter, leaned forward, and picked up the teacup again, "The stupid thing you mentioned, are you talking about founding a ninja clan?" "How do you know? I haven't told you yet." "Because you said at the beginning that your goal was to destroy the Ninja Clan and end the ninja heritage." “…Oh, it seems so.” Shiba Kiyokawa shook his head and put down the teacup again. This Boss doesn't seem very smart. This gesture seemed to anger the ghost. His black smoke spread further and his tone became excited. "But you definitely don't know what I'm going to say next! This is also the reason why that stupid woman, the first-generation miko, never believed me!" "You said." "In fact, the Otsutsuki clan was not the only one who came to the Ninja World at that time! However, the Six Paths Sage did not know this truth at the time! He thought he had done a good thing by founding the Ninja Clan and distributing the power of chakra to everyone around him, allowing countless people to possess powerful powers that they had never dared to imagine in the past. But he forgot: Chakra is the ability of the Otsutsuki clan. By doing this, he is actually locking the power limit of this world forever! Even he himself later realized the serious consequences of doing so, so he lingered in the Pure Land after his death, never willing to completely disappear, fearing that after his death, this world would be invaded by the Otsutsuki again! " This time, Wuliang finally got what he wanted and saw the man sitting at the tea table in front of him with his pupils dilated with shock. A suppressed hum of satisfaction could be heard from the black smoke. But at this moment, Shiba Kiyokawa no longer had the intention to complain about the other party's childishness and desire to win. This information was indeed beyond his imagination. Is this the secret that the Six Paths Sage is unwilling to dissipate until now? Although it is outrageous, upon closer inspection, there is a reasonable and self-consistent logic - because if the historical course of the original work is followed, the world will never exceed the power limit set by the Six Paths Sage. At the end of the original work, Naruto and Sasuke have become the two strongest people in the entire ninja world, and they are very likely the two most powerful ninjas in the past thousand years. But have they surpassed the Sage of Six Paths? I'm afraid they are still far from it. Even the cheats that helped them defeat Kaguya in the end were given by the Sage of Six Paths. However, Naruto and Sasuke are the only two strongest and irreplaceable legends in the ninja world in the past thousand years! After their deaths, the world's ceiling will only regress further. Seeing that Shiba Kiyokawa fell silent, Wuliang continued excitedly. "To this day, none of us knows exactly how many members of the Otsutsuki clan there are, but one thing is certain: there is no limit to their power. They can improve themselves by constantly planting trees and plundering, but this world, this ninja world, is forever bounded by the upper limit because of the kindness of the Six Paths Sage. Therefore, if the inheritance of the Ninja Clan is not cut off, this world will be destroyed sooner or later!"
Having said this, Wuliang couldn't help but feel a little proud, as if he had finally proved that he was right. It is reasonable for him to destroy the ninja world! He thought that he had explained it in the same way to the first-generation shrine maiden, but unfortunately the other party didn't listen at all. She pulled him out of her body, left a sentence "You are too dangerous", and sealed him up for a thousand years. But now, knowing more about the future, Shiba Qinghe no longer regards the monster as a pure madman who wants to destroy the world. He carefully recalled the plot he knew and the many changes he witnessed after traveling through time, and finally couldn't help but look up and said. "You didn't come up with these ideas yourself, did you? Who told you?" Wuliang still wanted to be stubborn, "Why can't I just think of these myself?" "Because you don't have the brains." Wuliang was angry, "Why do you say that?!" "It's been a thousand years, and you've never been able to convince even one witch." At that moment, the black smoke twisted, expanded and contracted rapidly, and an angry voice came out of it, "They are crazy! There is something wrong with their brains!" Shiba Kiyokawa just watched quietly without saying anything. So after a while, the monster became discouraged. "Well, you are right, these are indeed what my mother's prophecy told me." "Who is the mother?" "Don't you know your mother? That's impossible. You clearly have her mark on you." At that moment, it was as if a bolt of lightning flashed across the back of Shiba Kiyokawa's head. Because he had a good memory, at this moment, he suddenly remembered the past events in Loulan. There, Longmai also told him: It was your mother who chose you and brought you here. The next moment, the ghost revealed the answer. "Mother is the will of this world." (End of this chapter)
